- 5:29Speaker 3: He had it off and threw it off. What's uping me?
- 5:34Speaker 12: Good morning, NB jos Chean Lamagne. How y'all doing this morning?
- 5:38Speaker 10: Brown?
- 5:39Speaker 12: Good morning.
- 5:40Speaker 13: So we start this morning with a government shut down
- 5:43Speaker 13: already underway and no clear deal yet to end it.
- 5:47Speaker 13: So House Speaker Mike Johnson says he expects the House
- 5:49Speaker 13: to pass a funding package by Tuesday, even if Republicans
- 5:53Speaker 13: have to do it without Democratic support. Let's listen to
- 5:56Speaker 13: why he thinks that's possible.
- 5:58Speaker 14: Uh, We're going to demonstrate once again this is the
- 6:00Speaker 14: party that takes governing Seriously, the Democrats play games with this,
- 6:03Speaker 14: and I think it's very unfortunate because what they're doing
- 6:05Speaker 14: is they're jeopardizing services to the American people. Some of
- 6:08Speaker 14: these conditions and requests they've made are obviously reasonable and
- 6:12Speaker 14: should happens. But the mask, for example, the additional judicial
- 6:17Speaker 14: requirement for a warrant, would be a whole other layer
- 6:20Speaker 14: of effectively bureaucracy. Remember, the immigration judges have already issued warrants,
- 6:26Speaker 14: and that's what the ICE officials are acting upon.
- 6:30Speaker 13: So we're going to talk about those masks that a
- 6:33Speaker 13: lot of Americans have had enough of. We're going to
- 6:35Speaker 13: get back to that in a second. But right now,
- 6:37Speaker 13: the shutdown is partial. Most federal agents they are still operating,
- 6:41Speaker 13: but workers could miss paychecks if this shutdown carries on.
- 6:44Speaker 4: Now.
- 6:44Speaker 13: At the center of this fight is immigration enforcement and
- 6:48Speaker 13: funding for the Department of Homeland Security. The Senate, they
- 6:51Speaker 13: pass a short term funding plan that would keep most
- 6:53Speaker 13: of the government open while Congress. It gives them two
- 6:56Speaker 13: weeks to negotiate changes to DHS and to ICE. But
- 7:00Speaker 13: how'se Democrats say they won't back it unless there are
- 7:02Speaker 13: stronger limits on immigration enforcement. And let's get into what
- 7:06Speaker 13: the House Democrats think about those masks. Here is a
- 7:09Speaker 13: Minority leader, Hakim Jeffries.
- 7:12Speaker 15: What is clear is that the Department of Homeland Security
- 7:15Speaker 15: needs to be dramatically reformed. We share that view, as
- 7:19Speaker 15: does Leadershumor and Senate Democrats in a variety of different ways.
- 7:23Speaker 15: Body cameras should be mandatory, masks should come off. Judicial
- 7:28Speaker 15: warrants should absolutely be required consistent with the Constitution.
- 7:32Speaker 2: In our view, before.
- 7:33Speaker 15: DHS agents or ICE agents are breaking into the homes
- 7:37Speaker 15: of the American people or ripping people out of their cars,
- 7:40Speaker 15: we need to make sure that there are complete and
- 7:42Speaker 15: independent investigations so that when ICE or DHS agents break
- 7:48Speaker 15: the law, they are held accountable.
- 7:52Speaker 16: Well.
- 7:52Speaker 13: Johnson says ICE wouldn't stop operating even if DHS funding
- 7:56Speaker 13: fails because the agency they already received billions of dollars
- 8:00Speaker 13: earlier this year, but other DHS agencies would fill it.
- 8:03Speaker 13: We talked about this a little bit last week. TSA
- 8:05Speaker 13: at the airport's FEMA, which is responding to those winter
- 8:08Speaker 13: storms right now, and President Trump. He's also backing Johnson's
- 8:11Speaker 13: strategy and says he wants to shut down Resolve quickly.
- 8:15Speaker 13: Although those negotiations remain so for now, the shutdown continues,
- 8:19Speaker 13: with federal workers, travelers, and disaster response agencies caught in
- 8:22Speaker 13: the middle. And we'll see what happens as lawmakers race
- 8:25Speaker 13: to avoid a longer disruption in the government.
- 8:29Speaker 11: Shout, some people just can't catch them, right, Lord, have.
- 8:32Speaker 12: Mercy, Yeah, for sure. And some good news this morning.
- 8:36Speaker 13: That five year old boy whose attention sparked national outrage,
- 8:39Speaker 13: he's back home in Minnesota, Liam Ramos. He was released
- 8:43Speaker 13: this weekend along with his father after the two were
- 8:45Speaker 13: held for days in an immigration facility in Texas. Now
- 8:48Speaker 13: their case it drew widespread attention after images of Lamb
- 8:51Speaker 13: wearing that blue hat and carrying that Spider Man backpack.
- 8:54Speaker 7: It went viral.
- 8:55Speaker 13: A federal judge ordered their release and criticized the administration
- 8:59Speaker 13: of hint how they they handled the case in question
- 9:01Speaker 13: the treatment of children, and the family's attorneys say they
- 9:04Speaker 13: came here responsibly, legally in twenty twenty three. They've been
- 9:08Speaker 13: following all the immigration rules and they never should have
- 9:11Speaker 13: been detained in the first place. And this comes as Minnesota,
- 9:15Speaker 13: where a federal judge has declined to block the Trump
- 9:18Speaker 13: administration's large scale immigration enforcement operation known as Operation Metro Surge. Now,
- 9:24Speaker 13: the judge did acknowledge that there is strong evidence that
- 9:26Speaker 13: that surge that we're seeing in Minneapolis, with all of
- 9:29Speaker 13: the federal agents on the ground, about three thousand of them,
- 9:32Speaker 13: that is having an impact on the community, including disrupted schools,
- 9:36Speaker 13: strained emergency systems, and concerns about racial profiling. But she
- 9:39Speaker 13: ruled that those concerns were not enough to legally shut
- 9:42Speaker 13: down the operation. So Minnesota officials, they say that they
- 9:46Speaker 13: will continue to fight this. Front Page News has an
- 9:50Speaker 13: interview this week later this week with some of the
- 9:52Speaker 13: officials in Minnesota, and so we'll ask them about this,
- 9:55Speaker 13: what plans that they continue to take, what legal options
- 9:59Speaker 13: they have on this, and we'll get back to you
- 10:01Speaker 13: when we have some.
- 10:02Speaker 12: More answers on that.
- 10:04Speaker 2: All right, thank you, thank you.

- 29:05Speaker 13: to his death, and the investigation files connected to his
- 29:08Speaker 13: longtime associate associate, Gaslayne Maxwell. She's now serving that twenty
- 29:13Speaker 13: year prison sentence for helping traffic and groom underage girls.
- 29:17Speaker 13: And the Trump administration says this release now marks the
- 29:20Speaker 13: end of its review, aside from some limited court approved
- 29:23Speaker 13: exceptions that it said it will work on if the
- 29:26Speaker 13: court tells them to. But Democrats, they say this is
- 29:29Speaker 13: far from over, that this is not the end of it.
- 29:31Speaker 13: Lawmakers they say they are pushing for transparency, and they
- 29:34Speaker 13: argue that there are still more than six million Epstein
- 29:37Speaker 13: related records that have only been released, and they said
- 29:41Speaker 13: there's still half of those that still need to be released.
- 29:43Speaker 13: They say too many documents were made withheld or heavily redacted,
- 29:47Speaker 13: and they want clearer answers about why that is missing.
- 29:51Speaker 12: Let's listen to California Congressman Rocanna.
- 29:53Speaker 16: On that they've released at best half the documents, but
- 29:57Speaker 16: even those shocked the conscience of this country, and there
- 30:02Speaker 16: is a demand for a lead accountability. But the survivors
- 30:05Speaker 16: lawyers that I've talked to have said that the survivors
- 30:08Speaker 16: are still upset and they want to make sure the
- 30:10Speaker 16: rest of the files come out. There's some people who
- 30:12Speaker 16: committed crimes and that needs to be looked at. And
- 30:15Speaker 16: we need to understand who were some of the associates
- 30:18Speaker 16: of Jeffrey Epstein. Those names haven't come out. In fact,
- 30:21Speaker 16: they were covered up. We need to understand who may
- 30:24Speaker 16: have abused or raped underage girls.
- 30:26Speaker 3: But then there's a broader issue, and that is that there.
- 30:29Speaker 16: Are rich and powerful people who may not have committed
- 30:31Speaker 16: a crime, but who are emailing Jeffrey Epstein well after
- 30:35Speaker 16: he's a pedophile talking about going to his island, talking
- 30:39Speaker 16: about wanting to participate in wild parties.
- 30:42Speaker 5: You know, That's what I don't understand, right like they
- 30:43Speaker 5: put out the documents you know that are heavily redacted,
- 30:46Speaker 5: and if the files, you know, if the files do
- 30:49Speaker 5: come out, and like, like what's going to happen? Like,
- 30:51Speaker 5: you know, I see names like Bill Gates floating around
- 30:53Speaker 5: and Elon Musk and Prince Andrew.
- 30:55Speaker 2: What's going to happen to those individuals?
- 30:57Speaker 5: It seems like all of those individuals are too big
- 30:58Speaker 5: to fail anyway, So like what's the point?
- 31:01Speaker 12: Yes, Charlotte, that's a very good point.
- 31:03Speaker 13: Including you said Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Richard Branson, a
- 31:06Speaker 13: Google co founder.
- 31:07Speaker 12: There were a lot of names in.
- 31:09Speaker 13: This last batch, and a lot of people have been asking,
- 31:11Speaker 13: so what happens next? I mean, if we get the
- 31:14Speaker 13: unredacted files, what is going to happen? So investigators say
- 31:17Speaker 13: that any new criminal charges would depend on what if
- 31:20Speaker 13: anything emerges from the remaining material. But you know, who
- 31:25Speaker 13: knows if we'll ever get that again. The Justice Department
- 31:28Speaker 13: says that they're done releasing any information. You've got more
- 31:31Speaker 13: than three million.
- 31:32Speaker 12: Files this last batch, and so they say that they're finished.
- 31:35Speaker 13: But you're right to your point, what is going to happen,
- 31:38Speaker 13: especially with these very rich and powerful men who seem
- 31:41Speaker 13: to all be in cahoots together to make sure that
- 31:44Speaker 13: this information doesn't come out.
- 31:46Speaker 2: But Rokanna says something important too.
- 31:48Speaker 5: I mean, you know, even if some of these people
- 31:50Speaker 5: aren't like implicated in any crimes, they were emailing with
- 31:54Speaker 5: you know, Jeffrey Epstein, well after the fact of people
- 31:57Speaker 5: knowing that he was a pedophile. Yeah, which is why
- 32:00Speaker 5: I to stand on because I mean, there's a lot
- 32:02Speaker 5: of people who still communicate.
- 32:03Speaker 12: With polks like that exactly.
- 32:05Speaker 13: But is that a crime though, you know what I mean,
- 32:08Speaker 13: it's maybe morally wrong. But can you charge them with
- 32:11Speaker 13: the crime for emailing if you have no you know
- 32:13Speaker 13: what I mean, if there was no if there's nothing
- 32:15Speaker 13: to solidify that they actually committed an act, a criminal act.
- 32:21Speaker 12: So we will continue to.
- 32:22Speaker 13: See what happens with these Epstein files. And we talked
- 32:26Speaker 13: about this briefly on Friday, and there's an update this morning.
- 32:28Speaker 13: So journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort they have been
- 32:31Speaker 13: released from federal custody after being arrested while covering that
- 32:34Speaker 13: anti ice protest at a church in Minnesota. Now both
- 32:37Speaker 13: say that they were there to report and not to protest,
- 32:40Speaker 13: and did no and deny doing any wrongdoing. Now, federal
- 32:44Speaker 13: judge earlier have refused to approve their arrests in the
- 32:48Speaker 13: first place, saying there was no evidence of criminal behavior,
- 32:51Speaker 13: and lawyers for both journalists say that they plan to
- 32:53Speaker 13: fight the charges.
- 32:55Speaker 12: Now the arrests are sparking a wider conversation.
- 32:57Speaker 13: Killer Mikey was asked about it on the Grammys Red
- 33:00Speaker 13: Carpet last night, and let's listen to what he has
- 33:02Speaker 13: to say.
- 33:02Speaker 3: In this country, you have a First Amendment right.
- 33:04Speaker 1: You have your right for free speech, you have the
- 33:06Speaker 1: right for religion, you have the right to symbol, and
- 33:08Speaker 1: you have the right to protest government according to your
- 33:10Speaker 1: First Amendment. Hold on to that the way you clutch
- 33:13Speaker 1: your religious books different times when me and Don have
- 33:15Speaker 1: not agreed, that is not try to stop the relationship
- 33:18Speaker 1: in the friendship.
- 33:19Speaker 3: I believe that brother loves and respect to people and
- 33:21Speaker 3: his people.
- 33:22Speaker 1: With that said, I was appalled to see him arrested,
- 33:24Speaker 1: but I was proud as I was of Uncle Luke
- 33:26Speaker 1: when he got arrested in the nineties fighting fighting for
- 33:29Speaker 1: our First Amendment rights.
- 33:30Speaker 2: I was his privilege.
- 33:31Speaker 1: When I read about Frederick Douglas had to fight for
- 33:33Speaker 1: our rights. What it's a journal truth for Harriet Tupman
- 33:35Speaker 1: or Lucy Carsons. So he is in the tradition of
- 33:38Speaker 1: Blacks that have fought and Americans that are following this
- 33:41Speaker 1: country for our rights, and we should be right in
- 33:43Speaker 1: told with him right now.
- 33:44Speaker 2: Absolutely, this is not about Don Lemon.
- 33:46Speaker 5: You know, sometimes people get caught up in the person,
- 33:48Speaker 5: you know what I mean, Like, don't get caught up
- 33:49Speaker 5: in the person, get caught up in the injustice.
- 33:51Speaker 11: And injustice anywhere as thet threty justice everywhere.
- 33:53Speaker 5: You know, what happened to them was an absolute injustice,
- 33:56Speaker 5: like you cannot just wipe your ass with the constitution
- 33:59Speaker 5: in that way.
- 34:01Speaker 13: Very very true, and so journalists everywhere, you know, are
- 34:04Speaker 13: actually taking a stand. I saw it all over my
- 34:06Speaker 13: timeline last week and it continues to be a wider
- 34:10Speaker 13: conversation this morning. And I'm sure you know this whole
- 34:12Speaker 13: week and while we watched this play out, so we'll
- 34:15Speaker 13: continue to watch that. And speaking of updates, we have
- 34:17Speaker 13: another one involving Nicki Minaj and some clarity from the
- 34:20Speaker 13: White House. So, after Nicki posted online about receiving that
- 34:23Speaker 13: Trump gold card, a White House official now says that
- 34:26Speaker 13: that was not illegal visa and described it as a
- 34:28Speaker 13: gold colored momento. It is not a document that provides
- 34:33Speaker 13: residency or a path to citizenship, despite what Nicki may
- 34:36Speaker 13: have claimed online. That comes as she spent last night
- 34:40Speaker 13: talking posting heavily about the Grammys, not about the awards,
- 34:45Speaker 13: but about politics, power and people she wants to hold accountable.
- 34:49Speaker 12: In the music industry.
- 34:50Speaker 13: And many of those posts, of course, they included political
- 34:53Speaker 13: attacks and brought accusations that were not back or court verified.
- 34:57Speaker 13: And there was a moment where the host, Trevor Noah,
- 35:00Speaker 13: he joked about minage her ties to Donald Trump. I
- 35:03Speaker 13: know Lauren's going to break that down later in the latest,
- 35:06Speaker 13: but after Minage, she referenced Lizzo online during her one
- 35:10Speaker 13: of her rants online, and Lizzo came forward and wade in.
- 35:14Speaker 12: Let's listen to what she had to say.
- 35:15Speaker 27: As You're about to see an influx of people who
- 35:21Speaker 27: see that it is more profitable and more beneficial to
- 35:26Speaker 27: join that side.
- 35:27Speaker 7: This is Trump's first year as president.
- 35:31Speaker 27: We got three more years of people who are going
- 35:35Speaker 27: to surprise you and it's going to hurt your feelings
- 35:38Speaker 27: and it's going to disappoint you.
- 35:40Speaker 3: There's money behind everything.
- 35:42Speaker 27: There are privileges behind every move people in these positions make.
- 35:47Speaker 3: I'm not surprised.
- 35:48Speaker 5: I don't think it's more profitable and beneficial to join
- 35:51Speaker 5: that side, Like where is the evidence of that? Like
- 35:53Speaker 5: where's the evidence of that for people who are not
- 35:55Speaker 5: in like the top zero point one percent of of
- 36:00Speaker 5: wealth in this country? Like where's the eving that Melania
- 36:02Speaker 5: Trump movie just flopped this weekend and she's the first
- 36:04Speaker 5: late caught a huge brick.
- 36:05Speaker 13: But maybe it's not the money, but maybe it's like
- 36:08Speaker 13: the privilege you know that comes with it, or you know,
- 36:11Speaker 13: while the rest of us are dodging ice or our
- 36:14Speaker 13: family members are being deported, maybe there's some sort of protection.
- 36:16Speaker 13: I mean, who knows, you know. I think that's maybe
- 36:19Speaker 13: what she's trying to imply is that you know so well.
- 36:23Speaker 5: Right, I mean, she got to be getting paid like
- 36:26Speaker 5: something that was crazy to me, you said, Liz o
- 36:28Speaker 5: Wade in I don't know why you Yes.
- 36:30Speaker 12: I caught that to you, like my double Antandre there.
- 36:33Speaker 2: Yea all right?
- 36:38Speaker 8: Now when we come back, Omar Epps, director, you Lean
- 36:41Speaker 8: Up Popovich and a keen Berry Senior will be joining us.
- 36:43Speaker 8: The new movie Moses the Black is in theaters now,
- 36:46Speaker 8: and we're gonna talk to them next and don't move.
- 36:47Speaker 3: It's to Breakfast Club.
- 36:48Speaker 8: God morning, morning, everybody is dj NV just hilarious, Charlamage
- 36:52Speaker 8: the guy.
- 36:53Speaker 3: We are the Breakfast Club. We got some special guests
- 36:55Speaker 3: in the building. The new movie Moses the Black is
- 36:58Speaker 3: in theaters right now.
- 36:58Speaker 8: We have Omar Epps Rector, Yolena Popovich and Aqim Bury Senior.
- 37:03Speaker 3: Good morning, Good morning.
- 37:05Speaker 11: How you're feeling person formal?
- 37:07Speaker 28: Good, good, very good, nice, Thank you for having.
- 37:11Speaker 5: Happy, Happy to have y'all. Man Moses to Black. Now,
- 37:13Speaker 5: I know Moses was a real person. I did a
- 37:15Speaker 5: little research. He was a fourth century saint, yeah right,
- 37:18Speaker 5: whose journey went from like violence to deep spiritual transformation.
- 37:22Speaker 2: Who was he?
- 37:23Speaker 13: He was?
- 37:24Speaker 2: I think he was like the real Robin Hood because
- 37:28Speaker 2: even when he was on his uh.
- 37:29Speaker 21: Let's say, path of darkness, he was truly take care
- 37:33Speaker 21: of his community, you know, giving to the poor things
- 37:35Speaker 21: of that nature. And he came to an impasse in
- 37:38Speaker 21: his life where he uh realized he had to become
- 37:42Speaker 21: the change he was seeking, which is parallel to the
- 37:46Speaker 21: character that I played, Malik. He finds himself at a
- 37:48Speaker 21: similar place. So the film explores those type of themes
- 37:52Speaker 21: obviously in a contemporary setting, and how you try.
- 37:56Speaker 11: You translate that like real life are into a modern
- 38:00Speaker 11: crime drum.
- 38:02Speaker 2: Well, that's that's Yolena who wrote the film beautifully you.
- 38:06Speaker 10: Should speak to that.
- 38:09Speaker 28: Yeah, well, what can I just say? First?
- 38:11Speaker 25: Was really drew me.
- 38:12Speaker 19: I really fell in love with the saint because of
- 38:15Speaker 19: his incredible courage and humility. I mean, this is the
- 38:20Speaker 19: man who was all the way on one side, he
- 38:23Speaker 19: was a notorious gang leader that was known for his
- 38:27Speaker 19: brutal violence.
- 38:28Speaker 28: People were fearing feared of him.
- 38:31Speaker 19: And basically he not only abandons at the moment when
- 38:35Speaker 19: you head the light within you know, not only that
- 38:38Speaker 19: he abandons the ways, but he goes on this journey
- 38:43Speaker 19: of a true freedom that achieves that the fruits that
- 38:49Speaker 19: this true freedom wore through a lot of repentance and
- 38:52Speaker 19: sketic work was this basically ability to face martyr than rejoice,
- 39:00Speaker 19: And that to me was like, this was an incredible man.
- 39:04Speaker 19: That heart must have been amazing even before his conversion,
- 39:08Speaker 19: you know, to have that kind of courage to say
- 39:11Speaker 19: I lived by the sword, now I'm going to die
- 39:13Speaker 19: by the sword. And this is this is for me,
- 39:15Speaker 19: This is the way I want to go, and I
- 39:17Speaker 19: want to glorify my Lord and Savior in that way.
- 39:19Speaker 19: So this is something that really kind of grabbed me.
- 39:22Speaker 19: So I thought about this for a long time, and
- 39:24Speaker 19: I was trying to put the story together in a
- 39:26Speaker 19: in a fourth century. But for some reason, whether you
- 39:30Speaker 19: call it writer's block or whatever, something was not quite there.
- 39:33Speaker 19: I felt like you wouldn't do justice to the same
- 39:36Speaker 19: until I had epiphany. I was on an island of
- 39:38Speaker 19: Eva and I saw literally Chicago Grandmother. I saw scenes
- 39:43Speaker 19: of the movie in front of my eyes, and I
- 39:46Speaker 19: and I said to myself and.
- 39:48Speaker 28: I no, no, no, no, And I said to myself, no.
- 39:53Speaker 19: No, I was I was sober, but maybe you're not
- 39:55Speaker 19: sober when you're in the prayer. Maybe maybe that's the meditation,
- 39:59Speaker 19: you know. So so what happens was like, you know,
- 40:02Speaker 19: I said, Okay, now I have a movie. But then
- 40:05Speaker 19: I was like, oh, great, but what do I know
- 40:07Speaker 19: about Chicago and the gang life? And that's where I
- 40:11Speaker 19: knew that if I wanted to do the justice to
- 40:14Speaker 19: this incredible saint, I had to go to Chicago, and
- 40:18Speaker 19: by the providence of God, I believe I met this
- 40:20Speaker 19: incredible gentleman Reginald king Berry, whom I went to respectfully
- 40:27Speaker 19: to ask a blessing if I can make a movie
- 40:30Speaker 19: like this, if this movie would help his community, and
- 40:35Speaker 19: I can have him give you a little bit of
- 40:37Speaker 19: a story of how that happened.
- 40:40Speaker 28: I mean, and he's without him, this wouldn't have happened.
- 40:43Speaker 2: Well.
- 40:44Speaker 10: The facts of the matter is a great friend of man,
- 40:47Speaker 10: Alex Picios, who was the head of Center Space. She
- 40:53Speaker 10: obviously had got in contact with him, and he told
- 40:57Speaker 10: her if she really wants the real deal, you know,
- 40:59Speaker 10: to contact me and to be real with you. I
- 41:02Speaker 10: was just gonna have lunch just to be cordial and
- 41:06Speaker 10: blow this white lady off. And so again during our lunch,
- 41:16Speaker 10: you know, she has some real interesting things to say.
- 41:20Speaker 10: And when she mentioned that she wanted to get the
- 41:24Speaker 10: essence of Chicago in the street life, you know, I
- 41:27Speaker 10: thought that was a great opportunity also for me to
- 41:30Speaker 10: speak about the street life. You know, it's not just
- 41:33Speaker 10: as easy as people put it out there. As guys
- 41:35Speaker 10: wake up up one morning, you want to be a
- 41:37Speaker 10: gang member, you want to say jeegs, you want to
- 41:39Speaker 10: get killed. That's not unfold you know, speaking from a
- 41:42Speaker 10: purpose perspective. You know, I am a preacher's son, and
- 41:46Speaker 10: so I was raised in the Baptist church. You know,
- 41:49Speaker 10: uh to say that you don't need nothing material here,
- 41:52Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. You're gonna be in poverty
- 41:54Speaker 10: until you're getting heaven. Then you're gonna have a street
- 41:56Speaker 10: to go. I'm like, well, listen, my next door neighbor
- 41:59Speaker 10: getting and brand new shoes, and I got holes in
- 42:03Speaker 10: the bottom of mind, you know, And she's a fight
- 42:06Speaker 10: or flight you did, you know what I'm saying. So
- 42:09Speaker 10: over the years, I rose to the ranks of the
- 42:10Speaker 10: folk on the hustlers and became the chief for myself.
- 42:14Speaker 10: And during that time right there again, we was what
- 42:18Speaker 10: you called negro rich, you know. But when they come
- 42:21Speaker 10: kicked that dough in, you know what I'm saying, All
- 42:23Speaker 10: that money went to the lawyer, you understand me. And
- 42:25Speaker 10: I gat eighteen years in the penitentiary.
- 42:28Speaker 2: And so while I was.
- 42:30Speaker 10: Ruminating in the state's only supermax called TAMS, I had
- 42:34Speaker 10: an epiphany. You know how, I need to change my
- 42:37Speaker 10: life because a whole lot of people. Now that I've
- 42:40Speaker 10: risen to the top ancheline of this organization, perhaps I
- 42:44Speaker 10: can introduce change and bring it back to where the
- 42:46Speaker 10: founders had it when they was giving breakfast and daycare
- 42:50Speaker 10: and that sort of thing, you know. And so when
- 42:53Speaker 10: I was emancipated in two thousand and six, I started
- 42:57Speaker 10: the organization called Saving Our Sons. And through those works there,
- 43:01Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying, Me and Alex became like
- 43:03Speaker 10: brothers from another mother, and uh, you know, have met
- 43:07Speaker 10: laying up. You know, we put some things down on
- 43:10Speaker 10: paper and the rest is history.
- 43:13Speaker 24: I think a lot of what I saw in the
- 43:14Speaker 24: movie too, we were talking about this earlier, was the
- 43:16Speaker 24: message that there's already power in you, but you might
- 43:20Speaker 24: not recognize it at a point, and that we all
- 43:22Speaker 24: need something to bring us about that. And for a
- 43:23Speaker 24: lot of us, especially Black community wise, it is religion
- 43:26Speaker 24: that we turn to that helps us kind of like
- 43:28Speaker 24: figure that out.
- 43:29Speaker 21: I'm glad you said that, because you know, whether you're
- 43:32Speaker 21: religious or not, when we use these words like faith
- 43:36Speaker 21: and when we use words like redemption, people always attribute
- 43:39Speaker 21: them to religion or spirituality. But there's a different angle
- 43:42Speaker 21: as well. Even if you're a science based thinker, you
- 43:46Speaker 21: got to have faith in the unknown something you're All
- 43:51Speaker 21: of your things are hypotheses because you weren't here a
- 43:53Speaker 21: million years ago to say this, carbing, this, that and
- 43:55Speaker 21: the other. And when we use words like redemption, you know,
- 43:59Speaker 21: if you you wanted to lose weight, you started working
- 44:03Speaker 21: out in a diet and then you kind of went off.
- 44:05Speaker 21: You know, you can put back on some pounds when
- 44:08Speaker 21: you're on your road back, like let me get back
- 44:10Speaker 21: on my deme.
- 44:11Speaker 2: That's a form of redemption. You're redeeming yourself.
- 44:14Speaker 21: If you did somebody wrong, when you come and you humble,
- 44:17Speaker 21: you apologize your my bad, that's a form of redemption.
- 44:21Speaker 21: So I'm only saying that to say it's not just
- 44:24Speaker 21: from a faith based angle, it's just from a human
- 44:26Speaker 21: experience angles.
- 44:27Speaker 2: What perspective you're looking at it? Three of you?
- 44:29Speaker 6: Do you think that Malik was actually at first a
- 44:33Speaker 6: bad guy?
- 44:33Speaker 3: Like or just doing what he had to do?
- 44:35Speaker 29: You know what I mean?
- 44:36Speaker 9: Like, because it's different ways to look at it. You
- 44:38Speaker 9: can come in come at it from two different perspectives,
- 44:41Speaker 9: you know what I mean.
- 44:42Speaker 10: Absolutely, Malik has similarities of my life.
- 44:47Speaker 2: You know.
- 44:47Speaker 10: And again you know, uh, situations push you into situations. Yeah,
- 44:52Speaker 10: like I said, from household nine kids, you did and
- 44:56Speaker 10: so public a my father used to have to have
- 44:58Speaker 10: under the porch when the public aid people coming in
- 45:01Speaker 10: your bell and sit on the couch and they test
- 45:03Speaker 10: your teeth and lift your shirt up, makes she ain't
- 45:05Speaker 10: got no whips on you, and that sort of thing.
- 45:08Speaker 10: And that was like traumatizing.
- 45:09Speaker 20: You know.
- 45:09Speaker 10: When I became a teenager, I'm like, well, I'm gonna
- 45:11Speaker 10: help my mom. You know, you had movies like the
- 45:14Speaker 10: mac uh, You had movies like Superflis. You set this
- 45:17Speaker 10: this kelo right here, you can get your family out
- 45:19Speaker 10: the hood, you know, and that impressed me. You know
- 45:22Speaker 10: what I'm saying. I'm like, well, it's the only game
- 45:23Speaker 10: that left me to play, right, you did in the seventies.
- 45:26Speaker 10: You either gonna be an entertainer or you're gonna be
- 45:28Speaker 10: an athlete or a drug dealer, one of the three.
- 45:31Speaker 10: You thing you just said in the seventies. Yeah, in
- 45:33Speaker 10: the seventies, if that's the ere I grew up in.
- 45:35Speaker 10: And so again, you know, by the time I became
- 45:38Speaker 10: a chief in the nineties, you know, I was in
- 45:40Speaker 10: the penitentiary, you did, you know what I'm saying. And
- 45:43Speaker 10: mister Hoover came along with a Message of Century twenty
- 45:45Speaker 10: one saying there wasn't gonna be no more gang banging
- 45:48Speaker 10: on each other. You did, you know what I'm saying,
- 45:49Speaker 10: We're gonna be all one family. And what the government did.
- 45:52Speaker 10: They threw them in a in a in a super
- 45:54Speaker 10: maximum prison to silence them. And I became an ambassador
- 45:57Speaker 10: for that message, and it wasn't long before I found
- 46:00Speaker 10: myself in a super maximum prison.
- 46:02Speaker 5: Silence to me, I don't speak to that for a second,
- 46:05Speaker 5: because people wud like to say, you know, Larry Hoover
- 46:07Speaker 5: is just some gang still criminal who just needs to
- 46:10Speaker 5: be locked away. But you know, people that actually know
- 46:13Speaker 5: him in his stories, they feel like he's a political prisoner.
- 46:15Speaker 10: Absolutely absolutely. I mean again, the man is almost eighty something,
- 46:20Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. But every time you come
- 46:21Speaker 10: up parole, they show a picture of him being twenty six,
- 46:25Speaker 10: and you know it's a fear factor politics, move on fear,
- 46:29Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. Trump doing the same thing
- 46:31Speaker 10: right now, fear he did. You know what I'm saying,
- 46:33Speaker 10: If mister Hoover was home right now, a whole lot
- 46:35Speaker 10: of things were ceasing desist because people still give reverence
- 46:39Speaker 10: to his name and his word. And so again you
- 46:41Speaker 10: have Jeff Ford the same way political prisoners. You know,
- 46:45Speaker 10: this guy gonna free the bitcoin people, you know what
- 46:49Speaker 10: I'm saying, whom bells the hundreds of millions of dollars,
- 46:52Speaker 10: he let them out of prison. But somebody understand me,
- 46:54Speaker 10: who actually hadn't hurt nobody know, almost thirty years they're
- 46:57Speaker 10: still holding them hostage.
- 46:59Speaker 9: How difficult is that though, right, because when you on
- 47:01Speaker 9: the streets, you got well, when you're in the streets,
- 47:03Speaker 9: you got your soldiers, you know what I mean, people
- 47:06Speaker 9: that look up to you to lead them in the
- 47:07Speaker 9: street life. Right, and then when you're thrown in prison
- 47:10Speaker 9: and now you are, you're preaching the total opposite of that.
- 47:15Speaker 6: The pressure of it is like did we follow you still?
- 47:18Speaker 6: But this when we was doing out here?
- 47:20Speaker 2: Like how you going?
- 47:20Speaker 11: You know what I mean?
- 47:21Speaker 9: What are the pressures like being and share your experiences
- 47:24Speaker 9: even when you were incarcerated, Like was that any type
- 47:29Speaker 9: of pressure being in there leading the total opposite of
- 47:31Speaker 9: what you was thrown.
- 47:32Speaker 2: In there for.
- 47:33Speaker 10: To be honest with you, I had several attempts on
- 47:35Speaker 10: my life right across my throat, you know, because again
- 47:39Speaker 10: I wasn't with the homosexuality, you raping young brothers. I
- 47:43Speaker 10: wasn't with that move, you know. And so again that
- 47:45Speaker 10: temp was made of my life because you had older
- 47:47Speaker 10: guys who have been there and they're gonna be there
- 47:50Speaker 10: and they say, well, these are they wives, and et cetera.
- 47:53Speaker 10: And so again I did go through a bit of
- 47:55Speaker 10: trepidation about you know what I'm saying, because I put
- 47:58Speaker 10: my guns down with the opposition put their guns down.
- 48:02Speaker 10: So I took counsel with my father and he told me,
- 48:05Speaker 10: you know, it don't take no courage to blend into
- 48:07Speaker 10: the crowd. It takes care of to stand out from
- 48:10Speaker 10: the crowd. And so I took that shout. You know
- 48:12Speaker 10: what I'm saying. I met with all the rest of
- 48:14Speaker 10: the cheese and my community and let them know, listen,
- 48:16Speaker 10: I'm going on this side of the street, and I
- 48:19Speaker 10: pray you will let me do this peacefully. Cause again,
- 48:22Speaker 10: you know, like I said, redemption, and I can always
- 48:25Speaker 10: go back that way as well if my life is threatned,
- 48:28Speaker 10: you know. But fortunately God put a cover over me.
- 48:32Speaker 10: And again, you know, I was able to bless my
- 48:34Speaker 10: community with thousands of jobs over the last nineteen years
- 48:38Speaker 10: that I've been involved with anti violence.
- 48:40Speaker 24: And you feel that in the movie though, like the
- 48:42Speaker 24: movie to me, I don't know if this is what
- 48:43Speaker 24: you guys, are you intended? But it's almost like a
- 48:46Speaker 24: like the messaging is like an act of like activism
- 48:48Speaker 24: of trying to wake people up on the streets right
- 48:51Speaker 24: now and let them know to join exactly what you're
- 48:54Speaker 24: talking about. And a lot of times those type of
- 48:56Speaker 24: things are not accepted when we are putting our people
- 48:59Speaker 24: together saying, look, y'all got these soldiers, but like if
- 49:02Speaker 24: y'all did this instead of this, right, So what has
- 49:05Speaker 24: that push back been like?
- 49:06Speaker 7: Because I know y'all going into theaters and like, what's that.
- 49:13Speaker 2: I'm hearing? We got disturbing news about this movie?
- 49:18Speaker 10: Yeah, listen, tell you so. Reality of the fact is,
- 49:21Speaker 10: you know, the powers that be are trying to suppress
- 49:24Speaker 10: this movie as we speak. You know, you had you know,
- 49:28Speaker 10: several studios, I say, theaters who actually pooled the movie.
- 49:33Speaker 10: You know, I have family and friends in various states
- 49:36Speaker 10: who contacted me and said, man, listen, we can't find
- 49:38Speaker 10: the movie. You know, it was there two weeks ago,
- 49:41Speaker 10: but now it's you know, they told.
- 49:45Speaker 28: Two days before the release.
- 49:47Speaker 2: We made the movie.
- 49:48Speaker 21: Before we made the movie for the community and they're
- 49:52Speaker 21: actively and aggressively trying to keep the film from the community.
- 49:57Speaker 21: It's very it's disgusting, but it societies times of now.
- 50:02Speaker 10: The truth no matter is, Cook County has the biggest
- 50:05Speaker 10: jail system in the country as far as prison, you know,
- 50:09Speaker 10: the Cook County where you hold you before you actually
- 50:11Speaker 10: go to prison. And you have people who made a
- 50:14Speaker 10: living of building these buildings. You understand me to try to,
- 50:19Speaker 10: I guess, incarcerate the whole mass of a generation. You
- 50:23Speaker 10: know again, I sat there from nineteen eighty eight to
- 50:27Speaker 10: two thousand and six. You know what I'm saying, And
- 50:30Speaker 10: it's not I didn't change my mind. I had changed
- 50:34Speaker 10: my mind, but the judge didn't change my time, you
- 50:36Speaker 10: know what I'm saying. And the truth of the matter is, again,
- 50:39Speaker 10: you know, my family has been in that community for
- 50:42Speaker 10: over sixty years and so we have roots, you know.
- 50:45Speaker 10: So when he was able to come out with this message,
- 50:49Speaker 10: you know, it resonated, It resonated, and I can say,
- 50:52Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying that the people are clamoring
- 50:54Speaker 10: for this movie to be put back in the studio.
- 50:57Speaker 2: What reason did they give?
- 50:59Speaker 11: Is it about raises? About the religious imagery like.
- 51:02Speaker 28: To listen to this.
- 51:03Speaker 19: This is you're gonna laugh now. The reason is it
- 51:07Speaker 19: wasn't pre sold enough. Who pre sells, you know, like
- 51:11Speaker 19: like that's small, like that it's pre sold enough. And
- 51:16Speaker 19: even people that bought up theaters were refunded.
- 51:20Speaker 21: People brought out whole theaters to see the film, and
- 51:23Speaker 21: they refunded them.
- 51:24Speaker 7: That doesn't even makepecifically in Chicago.
- 51:27Speaker 28: Is Chicago and especially.
- 51:32Speaker 10: Cicero, you know, in the urban areas where these particular
- 51:36Speaker 10: movies are. Now these theaters are, you know, because we
- 51:38Speaker 10: don't have any theaters on Madison Street no more. You know,
- 51:41Speaker 10: they don't have them downtown anymore. You know, you have
- 51:44Speaker 10: to go to the outer suburbs to actually see a film.
- 51:48Speaker 10: And again I guess they say they didn't want to
- 51:50Speaker 10: Afro American community. You know what I'm saying. The flood
- 51:52Speaker 10: they show like.
- 51:53Speaker 2: That, damn so money don't even make sense.
- 51:56Speaker 3: I mean, bax Office only even down.
- 51:57Speaker 2: Man, no more.
- 51:59Speaker 28: Crazy, But they cry how they care about the communities.
- 52:03Speaker 19: Right, I'm sorry to say that, but and please let
- 52:08Speaker 19: them know how attempting this film is. What does west
- 52:11Speaker 19: side Chicago brothers, what do they think about this film?
- 52:14Speaker 19: People that they've seen it.
- 52:15Speaker 10: Listen. I mean people was crying, you know what I'm saying, mothers, daughters, brothers.
- 52:23Speaker 10: You know, because you can see literally see yourself. When
- 52:26Speaker 10: people from Chicago saw Madison Street, you know they could
- 52:30Speaker 10: relate to Madison Street. When they saw Central, they can
- 52:33Speaker 10: relate to Central. You know, when they saw Shan King,
- 52:36Speaker 10: people start cheating, clapping their hands. And this is just
- 52:38Speaker 10: the play where you can choose shine it. But no
- 52:41Speaker 10: one has ever brought the movie. Dondra took the in
- 52:46Speaker 10: the West Side. You know, you have people who who profess, uh,
- 52:51Speaker 10: that won't change. But again, when you have to uice change,
- 52:55Speaker 10: you know you have powers to be like, hold it.
- 52:57Speaker 10: This might stop by a gravy train. You know, people
- 52:59Speaker 10: might stop selling drugs way they was doing. People shooting
- 53:02Speaker 10: one another, and we're gonna lose some sheriff jobs. I'll
- 53:05Speaker 10: give you a perfect example. When I was first taken
- 53:08Speaker 10: to a town super maximum prison. On the way there,
- 53:12Speaker 10: I'm watching the surroundings. You know, I'm seeing houses there
- 53:16Speaker 10: was dilapidated. I'm seeing the horse would have bent back.
- 53:20Speaker 10: I'm seeing rusty tractors. But when I left that eight
- 53:23Speaker 10: years later, he had brand new houses, brand new cars,
- 53:27Speaker 10: boats in the driveway. Why because when the prison comes,
- 53:31Speaker 10: the gas station should come, the bank come, the restaurant
- 53:35Speaker 10: come because black folks gonna come visit their people, you
- 53:38Speaker 10: understand me. And so when we shut it down, people
- 53:41Speaker 10: was out there literally with their signs, don't take our
- 53:44Speaker 10: prison away, madness.
- 53:47Speaker 3: Why do you think God showed you Chicago?
- 53:50Speaker 19: You know that's a good thing. I was on an
- 53:51Speaker 19: island of I was in Greece when that happened. And
- 53:55Speaker 19: this is a crazy story because there's so many providential
- 54:00Speaker 19: moments in my life.
- 54:01Speaker 28: And in this story, I let me share this one.
- 54:04Speaker 19: I was in it because I was struggling with the
- 54:06Speaker 19: story for a long time, and I was on an
- 54:07Speaker 19: island called Eva that one of the in a monastery
- 54:12Speaker 19: invited to spend the night by this elder who was
- 54:15Speaker 19: in Greece, and they wanted to ask me if I
- 54:18Speaker 19: can make a film about this other saint. And I said,
- 54:21Speaker 19: I never even thought of making a film that was saints.
- 54:23Speaker 19: I just simply read these stories and they resonated with me.
- 54:26Speaker 19: So if unless I have something honest in my heart,
- 54:29Speaker 19: I can't express it, then I'm.
- 54:31Speaker 28: The wrong person. So he said no, no, no, no,
- 54:33Speaker 28: just listen to me. Just sit here tonight and pray.
- 54:35Speaker 10: I'm like, okay.
- 54:38Speaker 28: So so I sat there, I put a blanket.
- 54:40Speaker 19: It was cold, and because naturally, Saint Moses was in
- 54:43Speaker 19: my mind because I'm like, why I cannot tell this
- 54:45Speaker 19: story in the fourth century. I'm doing it town for
- 54:47Speaker 19: two years, and something is playing with me. Until all
- 54:50Speaker 19: of a sudden, I see literally in front of me
- 54:52Speaker 19: Chicago funeral grandmother Like is this And then I'm like, well,
- 54:59Speaker 19: I have a movie now.
- 55:00Speaker 28: Like so I was super happy by the time I
- 55:02Speaker 28: got home. It was in Athens.
- 55:04Speaker 19: But then I was like, oh, but how I'm gonna
- 55:05Speaker 19: tell a story of Chicago. I gotta go and meet somebody.
- 55:08Speaker 19: Thank god, I met this amazing man here that that
- 55:11Speaker 19: without whom and his brothers and sisters, I wouldn't be
- 55:14Speaker 19: able to do this.
- 55:15Speaker 28: We were able to really put this together.
- 55:18Speaker 19: And yeah, so that's how this honestly came about. Somebody
- 55:22Speaker 19: might think you're out of it, but I told you
- 55:25Speaker 19: the truth. So so that's that's that's how these things coming.
- 55:29Speaker 21: And it's not to cut you up, but it's a
- 55:31Speaker 21: beautiful thing because Chicago is Chicago, but it's also a
- 55:35Speaker 21: microcosm for sort of every hood in the country.
- 55:39Speaker 2: Right, it could be Memphis, it could be Houston, it
- 55:42Speaker 2: could be you know what I.
- 55:43Speaker 21: Mean with these with these situations are happening at a
- 55:47Speaker 21: rampant pace. But it's perfect because Chicago is Chicago sort
- 55:51Speaker 21: of the epicenter right now, of like gang coaching.
- 55:55Speaker 11: Because that's the first place of conservatives like the name.
- 55:59Speaker 2: With about Chicago.
- 56:01Speaker 10: I'm a world traveler, right and everywhere I go, you
- 56:05Speaker 10: know what I'm saying. When you mentioned Chicago, they glorify
- 56:08Speaker 10: the fact of al Capone, as if that gangster doesn't
- 56:13Speaker 10: stopped with al Capone. You know what I'm saying. I mean,
- 56:16Speaker 10: Foe has been around since sixty seven. He did, and
- 56:19Speaker 10: we started off again being with the Wheelcox Boys protecting
- 56:23Speaker 10: four Corners on the West Side of Chicago were Polish
- 56:26Speaker 10: and Italians. Remember, while Luther King came to the West
- 56:29Speaker 10: Side about unfair housing because we couldn't move to the
- 56:32Speaker 10: West Side back in the sixties. And so that's where
- 56:35Speaker 10: the Wheelcoss Boys was formulated to protect us our families
- 56:39Speaker 10: from these races Italians out of Chicago and the more.
- 56:43Speaker 10: From wheel Cooms Boys to Four Corners and then it
- 56:46Speaker 10: became hustlers.
- 56:48Speaker 6: So she prayed for God to show her Chicago, and
- 56:52Speaker 6: you showed her old Black and then she.
- 56:54Speaker 28: Came none, No west side on the west side.
- 56:58Speaker 6: Okay, so what blacks that it's Pulaski Road road And
- 57:03Speaker 6: I want.
- 57:03Speaker 28: To say, can I can I can?
- 57:04Speaker 25: I please say.
- 57:09Speaker 29: You?
- 57:11Speaker 19: Can I say something? Pulaski South Pulaski Road right west
- 57:16Speaker 19: plus that's the hood. And a lot of people ask me,
- 57:19Speaker 19: well were you You know there are people that have
- 57:21Speaker 19: these things like, oh, you're a little bit afraid, and
- 57:28Speaker 19: I'm like, I'm like, first of all, I'm Serbian.
- 57:30Speaker 28: I grew up in the hood. That's number one, you know,
- 57:36Speaker 28: so so and I must say that.
- 57:39Speaker 19: I and I if I say this from my heart,
- 57:42Speaker 19: I will literally fear up someone to try to keep
- 57:45Speaker 19: it back.
- 57:46Speaker 28: I've never felt more alive.
- 57:49Speaker 19: Than going on the west to sixty two South Pulaski
- 57:53Speaker 19: Road his office and working with with people of the
- 57:59Speaker 19: West Side of Chicago. I I would never I could
- 58:04Speaker 19: never be grateful enough.
- 58:07Speaker 3: I'm sorry, guys.
- 58:09Speaker 10: I felt she earned the name chief Man because all
- 58:13Speaker 10: on the set he did. Because again she was able
- 58:16Speaker 10: to give a masterclass. She took guys who was literally
- 58:19Speaker 10: on the corners selling drugs, guys who was in the
- 58:22Speaker 10: rough house trying to rap in the hallway to their peers.
- 58:26Speaker 10: You did, you know what I'm saying, and literally put
- 58:29Speaker 10: them in front of the world. Had enough trust in
- 58:33Speaker 10: these guys, put them in front of the world. I
- 58:34Speaker 10: mean there was there was thesbians there such as oh Ma.
- 58:37Speaker 10: Then she took some rappers and trusted them, you know
- 58:40Speaker 10: what I'm saying, to come out the rap personality and
- 58:42Speaker 10: become thesbians. And these guys encompassed these personalities. And I
- 58:46Speaker 10: was right there with my foot down make sure they
- 58:49Speaker 10: kept it authentic. The reader for it.
- 58:52Speaker 13: This how.
- 58:54Speaker 21: Elena as our soul sister, and she was the skipper
- 58:58Speaker 21: right and and for those because there will be those.
- 59:02Speaker 2: A white woman is that she's from the hood. She
- 59:05Speaker 2: from a wart on country.
- 59:06Speaker 21: And when you sit and you talk with her, and
- 59:09Speaker 21: you discover her intentions coming from the right place and
- 59:13Speaker 21: that ultimate place where that color and all of that
- 59:15Speaker 21: doesn't exist.
- 59:16Speaker 2: We we are. It's the energy. It's the energy that's
- 59:19Speaker 2: really driving.
- 59:20Speaker 21: Us really, so we're able to articulate and have the
- 59:28Speaker 21: and and and create the conversation to to piggyback on
- 59:33Speaker 21: what a king was just talking about. It's like, nah,
- 59:36Speaker 21: she went boosts to the ground, you know, sho in
- 59:39Speaker 21: the mud and was then was comfortable because the people
- 59:43Speaker 21: could feel that energy you know what I mean, They
- 59:45Speaker 21: could feel that energy emanating for her from her. So
- 59:48Speaker 21: everyone felt that it was a safe space, you know
- 59:52Speaker 21: what I mean, to give and to be vulnerable and
- 59:54Speaker 21: to expose those parts of themselves.
- 59:56Speaker 5: Said, you never felt more alive, le I want to
- 59:59Speaker 5: I want to hear more about that, because a lot
- 1:00:00Speaker 5: of times people talk about places, they talk about people
- 1:00:03Speaker 5: they never talk to.
- 1:00:05Speaker 11: So you actually went there and spoke to the individuals.
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: It made you feel so alive.
- 1:00:09Speaker 19: There's so much love, there's so much humility, and maybe
- 1:00:13Speaker 19: maybe there's a lot of instruction. And I always say,
- 1:00:16Speaker 19: like when we sometimes I have both on my boys.
- 1:00:18Speaker 19: They're in sports, and any any serious athletes will tell
- 1:00:22Speaker 19: you that you're as good as your worst day. So
- 1:00:27Speaker 19: if people I want to see what their souls look like,
- 1:00:32Speaker 19: they can go visit those inner cities.
- 1:00:38Speaker 10: I mean again, they impressed.
- 1:00:40Speaker 28: Me, and the heart you'll feel alive.
- 1:00:44Speaker 19: I mean maybe because I I love God, I'm a believer,
- 1:00:51Speaker 19: like the connection people have faith there because that's all
- 1:00:55Speaker 19: they have. And I know what it means to have
- 1:00:57Speaker 19: only faith, and that's how to live by it. I
- 1:00:59Speaker 19: don't know consider that a curse. I consider that a
- 1:01:01Speaker 19: gift because when we are weak, we are strong. And
- 1:01:05Speaker 19: this is I feel where we connected and and and
- 1:01:08Speaker 19: people opened up and they gave me so much love
- 1:01:10Speaker 19: and trusted me and I and that gave me courage
- 1:01:13Speaker 19: because we did not have all the funds. We did
- 1:01:16Speaker 19: not have whisk a leaf, but we did not have
- 1:01:17Speaker 19: fifty cent o my aps. There was nobody there, nobody nobody.
- 1:01:23Speaker 19: We were just thinking, there's going to be maybe one
- 1:01:25Speaker 19: of the rappers gonna wrap these lines, and and little
- 1:01:29Speaker 19: by little things were happening, and it was beautiful to
- 1:01:33Speaker 19: see how this and and and and then I couldn't
- 1:01:37Speaker 19: let the community moments when it looked like it was
- 1:01:40Speaker 19: not gonna happen, but I just gave it all to
- 1:01:43Speaker 19: just do the justice to these beautiful people that have
- 1:01:46Speaker 19: the you know, they've they've reminded me that it's those
- 1:01:51Speaker 19: moments that matter.
- 1:01:52Speaker 28: When you when you feel joyful and a lie take

- 1:02:55Speaker 24: So going back to the Grammys really quickly, because we
- 1:02:58Speaker 24: got to make sure we talk about Lauren Hill and
- 1:03:00Speaker 24: the tribute that she did to DiAngelo and to mister ROBERTA.
- 1:03:04Speaker 7: Flack.
- 1:03:05Speaker 24: Now, she Lauren Hill opened up, uh the in memoriam
- 1:03:08Speaker 24: with her tribute to Dangelo.
- 1:03:11Speaker 9: Yeah, go ahead, let me, I know you asked more,
- 1:03:15Speaker 9: you got more audios for that tribute.
- 1:03:17Speaker 24: Yeah, But so from what I was told, because so
- 1:03:21Speaker 24: what I was told is that Lauren Hill actually curated
- 1:03:24Speaker 24: the tribute herself, like personally, there was I saw Leon
- 1:03:27Speaker 24: Thomas on the carpet talking about the fact that she
- 1:03:28Speaker 24: actually called him because he was a part of the tribute.
- 1:03:30Speaker 24: But Michael uh d'angelo's son, who actually went to the Grammys,
- 1:03:35Speaker 24: he told me that Miss Lauren Hill reached out to
- 1:03:37Speaker 24: him to even come and watch the rehearsal the day before,
- 1:03:39Speaker 24: but he got into late so he missed it. So
- 1:03:41Speaker 24: she was making sure personally, she took her time to
- 1:03:43Speaker 24: make sure people were involved and saw different things. Lucky
- 1:03:46Speaker 24: Day actually was one of the people involved as well too.
- 1:03:49Speaker 24: He did a cover of Brown Sugar.
- 1:03:51Speaker 28: And then you had.
- 1:03:54Speaker 24: Then then you have Raphael Sadik Anthony Hamilton who did Lady,
- 1:03:58Speaker 24: and Leon Thomas came in with Devil's.
- 1:04:04Speaker 9: I know it's not a composition and shout out to everything.
- 1:04:06Speaker 9: No baby, just yes, yes, it's a little tribute. But
- 1:04:09Speaker 9: blow and Leon Thomas like killed it.
- 1:04:12Speaker 3: Well, I'll sound like how I think I sound when
- 1:04:13Speaker 3: I'm singing that you never know that.

- 1:04:19Speaker 24: Yeah, and then and they of course they honored h
- 1:04:22Speaker 24: Roberta ROBERTA Flack as well. And the big surprise of
- 1:04:27Speaker 24: the night was when y Cleff came out to join

- 1:04:43Speaker 24: A lot of reasons why he shouldn't be there, and
- 1:04:45Speaker 24: that would be a surprise. I think people just love
- 1:04:48Speaker 24: to see them together. I know Michael was telling me
- 1:04:50Speaker 24: about like his experience at the show and he was
- 1:04:52Speaker 24: saying that when why Cleff came out, he lost it.
- 1:04:54Speaker 7: Like it was just a good moment to see.
- 1:04:56Speaker 24: And people were wondering if Angie Stone would be honored
- 1:04:58Speaker 24: as well, so they did make sure they had Angie
- 1:05:00Speaker 24: Stone on the screen as well. I also saw IRV
- 1:05:02Speaker 24: Gotti and Malcolm Jamal Warner. So it was a great
- 1:05:04Speaker 24: and memoriam, you know. Yeah, I know sad to have
- 1:05:08Speaker 24: lost all those people, but they honored them very well.

- 1:08:12Speaker 13: country between police and community.
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: Yes, you are a donkey.
- 1:08:18Speaker 3: The latest on that police killing of a black man,

- 1:08:25Speaker 7: we are in a state of emergency.
- 1:08:29Speaker 5: Okay, white supremacist violence, it is always have been the
- 1:08:32Speaker 5: number one threat to our society.
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
- 1:08:38Speaker 3: The breakfast club bitches all rich.
- 1:08:39Speaker 7: Frondy, please tell me why was I your donkey of
- 1:08:43Speaker 7: the day.
- 1:08:43Speaker 5: Well, donkey today from Monday, February second, second day of
- 1:08:47Speaker 5: Black History Month, goes to all the unserious journalists, all
- 1:08:50Speaker 5: the unserious people period who just ran with the PUSHR. T.
- 1:08:54Speaker 11: Eminem and Jay z are in the Epstein file story.
- 1:08:58Speaker 5: Yes, we are going to talk about that this morning,
- 1:08:59Speaker 5: because I don't understand and I would love to get
- 1:09:02Speaker 5: some understanding. Okay, if you haven't heard, this weekend, the
- 1:09:05Speaker 5: DJ published millions of pages, videos, and images from miss
- 1:09:09Speaker 5: Epstein investigation under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. I believe
- 1:09:13Speaker 5: they said it was roughly three point five million records.
- 1:09:16Speaker 5: By the way, when it was something about the Epstein
- 1:09:18Speaker 5: Files comes out, it never fails that President Donald Trump
- 1:09:22Speaker 5: does something ridiculous.
- 1:09:23Speaker 11: Okay.
- 1:09:24Speaker 5: This past Friday, independent journalist Don Lemon and Georgia Fort
- 1:09:28Speaker 5: were arrested by federal agents in Minnesota.
- 1:09:30Speaker 11: They were accused of conspiracy.
- 1:09:31Speaker 5: And violating the First Amendment rights of worshippers during an
- 1:09:35Speaker 5: anti ice protest at a city's church in Saint Paul.
- 1:09:38Speaker 5: Both of them were released on bond following their initial
- 1:09:41Speaker 5: court appearance, and President Trump said former President Barack Obama
- 1:09:45Speaker 5: should be arrested. Okay, there is a direct correlation between
- 1:09:48Speaker 5: Epstein files being released and President Donald Trump or saying
- 1:09:52Speaker 5: something crazy to deflect. Okay, you're justice. Now there are
- 1:09:55Speaker 5: all types of things in these files. First of all,
- 1:09:58Speaker 5: massive privacy failure, because forty three survivors of Epstein's abuse
- 1:10:02Speaker 5: were published without redaction. You got to address his driver
- 1:10:05Speaker 5: license for those. But now these people are getting harassed online.
- 1:10:08Speaker 5: It's nasty, Okay. Then there was evidence suggesting a wider
- 1:10:12Speaker 5: trafficking network. Okay, they got newly disclosed material that suggests
- 1:10:15Speaker 5: Epstein may have traffic girls to other wealthy, powerful men,
- 1:10:20Speaker 5: contradicting earlier DJ claims that there was infufficient evidence to
- 1:10:23Speaker 5: pursue others you also saw in the files a lot
- 1:10:26Speaker 5: of communication with high profile individuals, a lot of emails
- 1:10:29Speaker 5: and communications back and forth between Epstein and many wealthy,
- 1:10:32Speaker 5: powerful people. Okay, but I have to say the presence
- 1:10:35Speaker 5: of names does not necessarily imply wrongdoing. All right, Elon Musk,
- 1:10:39Speaker 5: Bill Gates, a bunch of politicians from the UK.
- 1:10:42Speaker 20: Now.
- 1:10:42Speaker 5: I know people are wondering what is going to come
- 1:10:44Speaker 5: of all this, and the answer is probably nothing legally anyway.
- 1:10:50Speaker 5: I mean, the DOJ Deputy ag Todd Blant said the
- 1:10:53Speaker 5: files do not currently provide enough credible prosecutable evidence to
- 1:10:57Speaker 5: bring new charges against other figures.
- 1:10:59Speaker 11: I would say, well, if you take.
- 1:11:00Speaker 5: Out all incredible prosecutable evidence before you release the files,
- 1:11:06Speaker 5: of course they don't have.
- 1:11:07Speaker 3: Enough credible prosecutable evidence.
- 1:11:08Speaker 5: Okay, but I want to get to the push your
- 1:11:10Speaker 5: t Jay z Eminem of it all, because that's what
- 1:11:14Speaker 5: went crazy on my algorithm. And I have questions. I
- 1:11:17Speaker 5: have one question. There's one question for the room. What
- 1:11:20Speaker 5: do niggas hate more reading? Our accountability? What y'all think
- 1:11:25Speaker 5: accountability reading? I think reading too. I think reading as well. Okay,
- 1:11:32Speaker 5: I don't understand why y'all are so quick they want
- 1:11:36Speaker 5: to tear our own down without doing just a little
- 1:11:39Speaker 5: bit of research. Okay, By the way, I saw way
- 1:11:41Speaker 5: more headlines about pushing t in jay Z than I
- 1:11:43Speaker 5: did Eminem. But that's not surprising because we love tearing
- 1:11:46Speaker 5: our own down, even though when you're talking hip hop,
- 1:11:48Speaker 5: Eminem is one of us. Okay, but I don't even
- 1:11:51Speaker 5: like the headlines I saw him, all right, connecting push
- 1:11:54Speaker 5: Your T jay Z and Eminem to something like the
- 1:11:56Speaker 5: Epstein files. Come on, man, okay, listen. For everyone who
- 1:11:59Speaker 5: may not know, let me explain to you. Mentions of
- 1:12:03Speaker 5: these artists didn't come from Epstein's personal records. They didn't
- 1:12:07Speaker 5: come from reports supported by law enforcement.
- 1:12:10Speaker 11: Okay.
- 1:12:10Speaker 5: These stories came from a crisis intake report, a public
- 1:12:15Speaker 5: hotline submission, a tip that some random person.
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: Called in from twenty nineteen.
- 1:12:21Speaker 5: They aren't backed by court findings, indictments, confirmed evidence, and
- 1:12:25Speaker 5: if you actually read the stories.
- 1:12:28Speaker 3: They just simply don't make any sense.
- 1:12:29Speaker 5: Okay, What the hell would jay Z be doing with
- 1:12:31Speaker 5: Harvey Weinstein and Attorney General William Barr in nineteen ninety six,
- 1:12:35Speaker 5: That was the year his first album came out. Do
- 1:12:37Speaker 5: you really think Pushy t In two thousand and seven
- 1:12:39Speaker 5: was hanging around Harvey Weinstein and was one of the
- 1:12:41Speaker 5: victim's handlers. In the Eminem story, the woman describes how
- 1:12:45Speaker 5: she weighs three hundred pounds, so a video of her
- 1:12:49Speaker 5: would be easy to find.
- 1:12:50Speaker 3: This is her words, not mine.
- 1:12:52Speaker 5: She said this in the reports she weighs three hundred pounds,
- 1:12:55Speaker 5: so a video of her would be easy to find.
- 1:12:57Speaker 5: And in the Eminem story, she said when she woke up,
- 1:13:00Speaker 5: she saw someone recording with the phone, and she thinks
- 1:13:03Speaker 5: it was Diddy. Okay, all right, once again, these are
- 1:13:08Speaker 5: public hotline submissions, not nothing within the file. These are
- 1:13:14Speaker 5: public hotline submissions. The tips itself don't imply these individuals
- 1:13:19Speaker 5: were investigated, Okay, Nor does it in any way imply
- 1:13:22Speaker 5: guilt for any of these accusations. The DJ literally said
- 1:13:25Speaker 5: some of the accusations polls could be faked or falsely submitted.
- 1:13:29Speaker 5: By the way, anyone who actually took the time to
- 1:13:31Speaker 5: read any of these stories would know that.
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: Now.
- 1:13:34Speaker 5: I don't have a problem with people reporting this. I
- 1:13:36Speaker 5: just don't understand how y'all don't report this with proper context.
- 1:13:39Speaker 5: All you outlets know that people don't read past headlines.
- 1:13:43Speaker 5: So if you put pusha T, Jay z Eminem into
- 1:13:46Speaker 5: Epstein Files, everybody is gonna run with you, and I
- 1:13:50Speaker 5: just be having to sit back and think, do we
- 1:13:51Speaker 5: realize how much we are getting played? Okay, Whenever the
- 1:13:54Speaker 5: powers that be want to deflect from what they got
- 1:13:56Speaker 5: going on, they will always throw meat of the Blacks
- 1:14:02Speaker 5: because they know nobody controls the algorithm like black people.
- 1:14:06Speaker 5: All right, why do you think they like utilizing black influences,
- 1:14:10Speaker 5: black rappers, black artists, because nobody controls the algorithm like
- 1:14:15Speaker 5: we do. Nobody gets people going like us. Oh, Epstein
- 1:14:18Speaker 5: Files coming out. Okay, put out some of the stuff
- 1:14:21Speaker 5: from the DJ tip line. There's some big names in there.
- 1:14:24Speaker 5: And it will be good this weekend because push your
- 1:14:26Speaker 5: T is nominated for all types of awards at the
- 1:14:28Speaker 5: Grammys this year, and people on social media, by people,
- 1:14:31Speaker 5: I mean Drake fan pages will have.
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: A field day with this and they will talk about
- 1:14:35Speaker 3: this so much that it will keep us.
- 1:14:37Speaker 11: Out of the algorithm.
- 1:14:38Speaker 5: Do we not understand how black culture is being used
- 1:14:41Speaker 5: to protect the agendas of the elite? Okay, Epstein Files

- 1:21:35Speaker 21: I was like, oh yeah, we fried, we cooked in
- 1:21:37Speaker 21: this one, so might as well we gotta win this
- 1:21:38Speaker 21: fight now.
- 1:21:40Speaker 3: Is it bother you that people know you more for
- 1:21:42Speaker 3: the hairpiece than the actual boxing.
- 1:21:44Speaker 2: You know what is four years ago?
- 1:21:45Speaker 21: You know when I make sure I'm a few years ago, man,
- 1:21:46Speaker 21: they knew me for boxing, you know what I mean,
- 1:21:48Speaker 21: I'm not a little bit and it's I'm always been
- 1:21:51Speaker 21: a funny guy.
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: You know, I'm always making fun of myself.
- 1:21:53Speaker 13: You know.
- 1:21:53Speaker 21: Dj' self was like my god brother, you know what

- 1:22:00Speaker 21: how to roll with the punch out one one. But
- 1:22:10Speaker 21: like like being from guess a being from New York
- 1:22:12Speaker 21: given me from the New Jersey, New York. We all
- 1:22:14Speaker 21: grew up just cutting on each other. So if you
- 1:22:17Speaker 21: can't take somebody cutting on you, that's appost made me
- 1:22:19Speaker 21: good in box, Like I could roast you and be
- 1:22:21Speaker 21: crack up by the wrong you know what I'm trying
- 1:22:22Speaker 21: to say. So I've always been able to roast myself.
- 1:22:24Speaker 21: That's why it's offering people to get at me in
- 1:22:26Speaker 21: school because I was always fighting too.
- 1:22:28Speaker 2: So anyway, I beat him with my bullies after they
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: bullied me. But that always did me.
- 1:22:31Speaker 21: Tough skin, and God made me this way the way
- 1:22:33Speaker 21: I am right now. I thank God for that, you
- 1:22:35Speaker 21: know what I mean, because yeah, I can laugh it off.

- 1:22:38Speaker 21: girl with this here.
- 1:22:39Speaker 3: If the handpies regulation approved by the boxing Comission.
- 1:22:42Speaker 21: You know, it's not regulated or approved per se, but
- 1:22:45Speaker 21: I know you go pre fight inspections and they check
- 1:22:48Speaker 21: you for your body punch and you know, make sure
- 1:22:49Speaker 21: the thing is good or whatever. And I was like, yo,
- 1:22:52Speaker 21: I was thinking about it. But if he canceled fight
- 1:22:53Speaker 21: because I got his peace on, I was like, you
- 1:22:55Speaker 21: ain't gonna know. And he tested real quick and he
- 1:22:57Speaker 21: kept the movie and I was like, we good, let's go.
- 1:22:59Speaker 21: We're gonna run out.
- 1:23:01Speaker 17: What happened.
- 1:23:01Speaker 21: Then you check your scalp, squeeze your head, make sure
- 1:23:04Speaker 21: you're gonna fracture your jaw or nothing like that. And
- 1:23:05Speaker 21: of course you don't really want like long hand with things,
- 1:23:08Speaker 21: you know, whipping and air and all that. So he
- 1:23:10Speaker 21: just touched my scalp.
- 1:23:11Speaker 5: So fighters start listing haird pieces with mouth guards and
- 1:23:14Speaker 5: cups during specialty.

- 1:23:17Speaker 21: thing now because I definitely brought light to it, you know,
- 1:23:19Speaker 21: so I hope, I hope I ain't heard it for
- 1:23:21Speaker 21: nobody else, but damn, I'll.
- 1:23:23Speaker 3: Be honest with you.

- 1:23:42Speaker 21: don't know, man, maybe I had the cheese burking and
- 1:23:45Speaker 21: put some more muscle.
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: Of the Listen.
- 1:23:46Speaker 5: The commentators was playing you throughout the whole fight because
- 1:23:49Speaker 5: they kept saying, this is such a sloppy fight, and
- 1:23:52Speaker 5: I'm like, what they really wanted to say was this
- 1:23:53Speaker 5: is a fact fight, you know what I mean? And
- 1:23:55Speaker 5: then when the head came off, they was like, oh,
- 1:23:57Speaker 5: you know he won by a hair, isn't that? But
- 1:24:00Speaker 5: you do look much better shape.
- 1:24:01Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what it is.
- 1:24:02Speaker 21: I'm gonna say something, man, if you watch my last
- 1:24:03Speaker 21: any ruiz, you know I want that fighting gave me
- 1:24:05Speaker 21: a drawing. I fight his hometown, and I'm a very
- 1:24:08Speaker 21: fast guy on my feet. I throw a lot of punches,
- 1:24:09Speaker 21: sent the eighty punches round. But the year and a
- 1:24:11Speaker 21: half layoff is what really hurt me in his fight,
- 1:24:14Speaker 21: you know. And I'm fighting a guy that's my height
- 1:24:16Speaker 21: to eighty X football player. Any damn Nigerians, they so
- 1:24:19Speaker 21: damn strong. Like I said, I'm gonna be fine. I
- 1:24:21Speaker 21: get him, bro, he was. He was ready for me.
- 1:24:23Speaker 21: Anybody know, they fight baby, they come up here. So
- 1:24:26Speaker 21: you know, I had about twenty eight twenty nine days
- 1:24:27Speaker 21: notice to really get ready for this fight. So it
- 1:24:29Speaker 21: was not one hundred my best. So thank god I
- 1:24:31Speaker 21: got to win. We're back to work. You know, he
- 1:24:33Speaker 21: got a Klie Fly wall. He punched me up in
- 1:24:35Speaker 21: the air a couple of times.
- 1:24:36Speaker 2: My ad swole up. We gotta get that sticked up. So,
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: like I said, the main thing is get to win.
- 1:24:40Speaker 2: You know, we got some nother rider. Be back on
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: the map, get back in the gym, back to focus,
- 1:24:44Speaker 2: back to ground.
- 1:24:44Speaker 5: Do you feel like you missed you a moment because
- 1:24:46Speaker 5: you know you were supposed to be the guy who
- 1:24:49Speaker 5: fought Anthony Joshua's first fight here in America?
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: Correct?
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: Andy Ruiz ended up winning that fight.
- 1:24:54Speaker 11: You did beat Andrey Ruiz.
- 1:24:56Speaker 2: Do you feel like you missed your star making moment?
- 1:24:58Speaker 21: I mean, you know what, I beat myself many times
- 1:25:01Speaker 21: over the years because of that, You know what I mean.
- 1:25:03Speaker 21: It's so funny. One of my boys, God rested soul.
- 1:25:05Speaker 21: You know, he was doing eighteen years in a joint
- 1:25:07Speaker 21: and he said, bro unied to commit no crime. You
- 1:25:09Speaker 21: ain't kill nobody. It's like it's like you lost, you
- 1:25:12Speaker 21: lost your make it re up again. You go back
- 1:25:14Speaker 21: to the block and start over. Because what happened is,
- 1:25:17Speaker 21: you know, I beat myself because of social media and
- 1:25:19Speaker 21: other people. But in life I know that I'm in
- 1:25:22Speaker 21: a better PICI of somebody else. So I got another
- 1:25:24Speaker 21: day to make it, another day to make it happen.
- 1:25:25Speaker 21: I said, I pray to God, stay grinded and stay focused.
- 1:25:28Speaker 21: And yes I did have missed the opportunity, but I'm
- 1:25:30Speaker 21: still alive, you know what I'm trying to say. Like,
- 1:25:32Speaker 21: there's plenty of superstars and stars that had to reborn
- 1:25:36Speaker 21: and restart over a thirty you know, Mike went to
- 1:25:38Speaker 21: jail on on that situation he had years ago. Mama
- 1:25:40Speaker 21: and Halley had to go to Canada and stay with
- 1:25:42Speaker 21: from his career for two or three years, and I'm
- 1:25:44Speaker 21: trying to start. I said, you know what, maybe this
- 1:25:45Speaker 21: is my time to recent figure things out. You know,
- 1:25:47Speaker 21: I went through a divorce after that, I lost my
- 1:25:49Speaker 21: mansion in Jersey. He got rid of a couple of cars.
- 1:25:52Speaker 21: Like I went through the gut up. But I really
- 1:25:55Speaker 21: figured out at that time, Like you know, my my
- 1:25:56Speaker 21: publicists and my big sister Alvina. She been with me
- 1:25:59Speaker 21: from the beginning. So it's like a lot of people
- 1:26:00Speaker 21: have been riding with me when I had nothing again
- 1:26:02Speaker 21: being around right now, so we're gonna get to the top.
- 1:26:05Speaker 5: Because you had tested positive for a performance and answer
- 1:26:08Speaker 5: man was a I'm gonna tell you something, A fifteen
- 1:26:10Speaker 5: dollars penis pill from the a rab store.
- 1:26:13Speaker 2: I swear to God everything I love, bro let me
- 1:26:17Speaker 2: take something anything.
- 1:26:20Speaker 3: I'm telling you.
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: Yo.
- 1:26:23Speaker 20: What it was?
- 1:26:28Speaker 3: He said, I they can't. You got a gas station pill.
- 1:26:33Speaker 7: So it's very humble.
- 1:26:34Speaker 9: And I've been with him sixteen years, he told them.
- 1:26:37Speaker 9: Prior to the fight, I got the confirmation I.
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: Did take to take this.
- 1:26:43Speaker 11: I just want your to know I took this.
- 1:26:45Speaker 6: It was like zero point point point point point point
- 1:26:47Speaker 6: point point point in his blood that Voda came after
- 1:26:52Speaker 6: with that, which we understand.
- 1:26:54Speaker 9: But he has not lied. He is not a liar,
- 1:26:57Speaker 9: as you can say. He is very humble in kind,
- 1:26:59Speaker 9: he's lovable. He was not a liar, and that is
- 1:27:02Speaker 9: what happened.
- 1:27:02Speaker 2: Least he didn't.
- 1:27:03Speaker 3: At least he said it.
- 1:27:04Speaker 6: I wouldn't have said it. That's embarrassing.
- 1:27:06Speaker 9: But as you could say, this is a big baby,
- 1:27:08Speaker 9: and that's why he's an inspiration because of his transparency.
- 1:27:11Speaker 2: Thank you the hell did you need penis pills for you?
- 1:27:13Speaker 3: Was only in your twenties, thirty only trying to tell something?
- 1:27:16Speaker 3: You were trying to tell something.
- 1:27:18Speaker 21: So man, So you know, we had a couple of
- 1:27:21Speaker 21: things in the town and we was running wild. I said, yo,
- 1:27:23Speaker 21: it's right before camp about the start. I said, let
- 1:27:25Speaker 21: me go get one in real quick. Well a before
- 1:27:27Speaker 21: and really but you know when I got the at
- 1:27:30Speaker 21: the black and you know black and was pretty crazy
- 1:27:32Speaker 21: back it's before the honey pack was pick it up
- 1:27:35Speaker 21: and I popped.
- 1:27:35Speaker 3: To him on the right on the thing.
- 1:27:38Speaker 21: No, no, that said round on one thousand youre talking
- 1:27:40Speaker 21: about were talking about that? Okay, don't give you a headaches, right,
- 1:27:44Speaker 21: will give you some headaches.
- 1:27:46Speaker 2: That's going pyrated with that. What happened?
- 1:27:54Speaker 20: Bro?
- 1:27:54Speaker 21: Listen man like, like I said, it's so funny because
- 1:27:57Speaker 21: we signed contracts now with the drugs and companies where
- 1:27:59Speaker 21: we and bash them and stuff. Now, so funny they
- 1:28:01Speaker 21: say that. But the thing is, now, why would you
- 1:28:04Speaker 21: do that? Because they made a lot of mess mess
- 1:28:06Speaker 21: ups before for other fighters in the past, and fires
- 1:28:08Speaker 21: are getting suing them now, you know what I mean.
- 1:28:10Speaker 21: And the main person who started fighter name was Victor
- 1:28:12Speaker 21: Conti and he's with the biggest dope doctor in all
- 1:28:15Speaker 21: the MLB help football players. So it's a lot of
- 1:28:17Speaker 21: shady gray. Everybody's doing this in companies right. And let
- 1:28:20Speaker 21: me tell you something. The level of what they what
- 1:28:22Speaker 21: they find in my system was like zero points zers,
- 1:28:24Speaker 21: zero year, zero one of a nanogram. You know the
- 1:28:26Speaker 21: nanogram is it's like a point Grandma a grant, Like,
- 1:28:29Speaker 21: it's just who the hell can't test for this? How
- 1:28:32Speaker 21: can those team in my system? We go a party
- 1:28:34Speaker 21: in New York all the time and go hang out.
- 1:28:35Speaker 21: Somebody could touch your drink and you rub your nose.
- 1:28:37Speaker 21: It's something in your system. So it's a lot of
- 1:28:40Speaker 21: other bs, and I lost a lot of money.
- 1:28:41Speaker 5: Comes you wasn't supposed to getting no cheeks before the
- 1:28:44Speaker 5: fighters camp, he said before.
- 1:28:46Speaker 2: Why now, I ain't gonna lie. I go like a
- 1:28:48Speaker 2: week before a fight, man, I need some I need some.
- 1:28:50Speaker 2: I need some booty, bro, I ain't gonna lie.
- 1:28:52Speaker 10: Pause.
- 1:28:52Speaker 3: That sound crazy, So I want to go back to
- 1:28:55Speaker 3: another question. How did you? How did you get into boxing?
- 1:28:59Speaker 3: Being from brook When? What got you into kickbox?
- 1:29:01Speaker 29: Oh?
- 1:29:01Speaker 2: My goodness, I actually picked to the truth.
- 1:29:04Speaker 3: So it was a big baby Miller for joining us
- 1:29:06Speaker 3: this morning.
- 1:29:06Speaker 2: Now he's hilarious.
- 1:29:08Speaker 6: Man got his personality though, he's like he cool with it.
- 1:29:11Speaker 2: But that's why I said.
- 1:29:12Speaker 5: This moment was good for him because people get to
- 1:29:14Speaker 5: see his personality now. But the next fight they got
- 1:29:17Speaker 5: to see his hands because it wasn't a good showing
- 1:29:18Speaker 5: for him. Correct on Saturday, he looked, he didn't look good.
- 1:29:22Speaker 5: You've seen him in better shape than that. That's my
- 1:29:24Speaker 5: first time I've seen him in better shape than that.
- 1:29:26Speaker 5: But I'm just talking about I've seen him fight better
- 1:29:28Speaker 5: than that as well.
- 1:29:28Speaker 8: But like you said, he only had three weeks to prepare,
- 1:29:30Speaker 8: so you know he needed a little said the rust start.
- 1:29:34Speaker 9: I didn't even know that you can have last minute
- 1:29:36Speaker 9: you can take last minute fights like that. I thought
- 1:29:38Speaker 9: you had to have a certain period of time where
- 1:29:39Speaker 9: you have to spar I mean or trained first before you.
- 1:29:42Speaker 2: Get in the ring.
- 1:29:42Speaker 5: But he does have an amazing story, man, So you
- 1:29:45Speaker 5: can go watch the full conversation on the Yeah, all right,

- 1:30:39Speaker 3: Yeah, so I don't even want to do this anything.
- 1:30:45Speaker 9: All right, all right, so.
- 1:30:46Speaker 24: I know y'all just talk to jerobic baby Miller. Just
- 1:30:49Speaker 24: real quick one to say, because we mentioned in the
- 1:30:51Speaker 24: last hour of congratulations to Course Stevenson before we move
- 1:30:55Speaker 24: into the other news. Shut up, now moving on in
- 1:30:59Speaker 24: other news, another really quick mention that I wanted to
- 1:31:01Speaker 24: make sure we got in today. So Snoop Dogg yesterday
- 1:31:04Speaker 24: posted sending love to his daughter and so did his
- 1:31:07Speaker 24: son because his daughter lost her baby girl.
- 1:31:09Speaker 7: Oh yes, so Snoop Dogg's daughter. Her name is Corey.
- 1:31:13Speaker 24: She's she's been taking us on his journey of her
- 1:31:16Speaker 24: having her baby girl, Cody, and her baby girl was
- 1:31:18Speaker 24: born prematurely. Cody had came home from the nick you
- 1:31:21Speaker 24: and everything, and then uh, Corey posted that she lost
- 1:31:25Speaker 24: her daughter. She said, one day I lost the love
- 1:31:27Speaker 24: of my life, my Cody. And you know, Corey's brother
- 1:31:31Speaker 24: also posted as well to just in support, like you know,
- 1:31:33Speaker 24: saying little sis, we got you.
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: So sending them some love, Yeah, sending healing energy to.
- 1:31:45Speaker 13: Yes.
- 1:31:46Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:31:47Speaker 7: Now in other news, a quick little grammy thing here.
- 1:31:50Speaker 7: Uh so President Trump.
- 1:31:51Speaker 24: So we've been talking a lot about Trevor Noah's jokes
- 1:31:53Speaker 24: all night long, and he threw a joke another joke
- 1:31:57Speaker 24: because I rero through Trump jokes. Trump's West. Let's take
- 1:32:00Speaker 24: a listen to Trevanoa'll talk about Greenland.
- 1:32:03Speaker 3: Song of the Year.
- 1:32:05Speaker 2: Congratulations Billy Eilish.
- 1:32:07Speaker 23: Wow, that is a Grammy that every artist wants, almost
- 1:32:11Speaker 23: as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense. I mean,
- 1:32:15Speaker 23: because Epstein's Island is gone. He needs a new one
- 1:32:17Speaker 23: to hang out with Bill Clinton. So I told you
- 1:32:20Speaker 23: it's my last year. What are you gonna do about it?
- 1:32:24Speaker 7: I'm playing with Travor Listen.
- 1:32:27Speaker 24: President Trump was not too happy about that, so he
- 1:32:29Speaker 24: went to a true social his platform and it's a
- 1:32:33Speaker 24: full response, but I just grabbed a part of it
- 1:32:35Speaker 24: where he says that Trevanoa is a total loser. He
- 1:32:37Speaker 24: better get his fact straights and get them straight fast
- 1:32:40Speaker 24: because he's gonna sue him. Trump says that he's gonna
- 1:32:42Speaker 24: be sending his lawyers to sue his poor, pathetic, talentless
- 1:32:46Speaker 24: of an MC. He's gonna be asking for plenty money.
- 1:32:49Speaker 24: And he says ax CBS, w what happened? As George,
- 1:32:53Speaker 24: what happened? He's talking about that prior lawsuit that he had,
- 1:32:56Speaker 24: and he says he's gonna have some fun with Trevanoa.
- 1:32:59Speaker 11: Well, I would say that's a wasted time Trump.
- 1:33:01Speaker 5: If he's suing Trevor Noah directly if he's going to
- 1:33:03Speaker 5: sue Trevor Noah, the Grammys and the network that aired
- 1:33:06Speaker 5: who aired that last night BBS?
- 1:33:09Speaker 2: And how much more can you.
- 1:33:12Speaker 3: Shake them down? You know that's your network now, that's
- 1:33:15Speaker 3: your new Fox News.
- 1:33:16Speaker 2: How much more can you shake them down?
- 1:33:17Speaker 5: But ain't no money in just suing Trevor by himself, like,
- 1:33:20Speaker 5: stay suing the networks, Stay suing the I R s
- 1:33:23Speaker 5: and federal institutions, because clearly, Uh Trump got a goal
- 1:33:26Speaker 5: he's trying to reach.
- 1:33:26Speaker 11: Man, he must he got his own goal fund me
- 1:33:28Speaker 11: going on, right, And this is.
- 1:33:31Speaker 24: Actually the Grammy's last year on CBS, and TREVOROA made
- 1:33:34Speaker 24: it very clear this is his last year doing the show.
- 1:33:35Speaker 5: When you yeah, yeah yeah and Angel last year Flying Trouble,
- 1:33:40Speaker 5: You're gonna have some problems at every.
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: Point around the country from here on for the at
- 1:33:45Speaker 2: least the next three years. Actually loved Trevor.
- 1:33:47Speaker 3: I think he kills it now.
- 1:33:50Speaker 5: In the first hour and the first hour you literally
- 1:33:52Speaker 5: said the man get literally said first you said, I
- 1:33:56Speaker 5: thought everybody.
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: Knew Trevor for Donald And that's why, which is even.
- 1:34:00Speaker 5: More all y'all individuals supposed to stick together, right, Okay,
- 1:34:05Speaker 5: you're right, You're right, my bad.
- 1:34:08Speaker 3: Why you think about done? Was talk about Nicki Minaja,
- 1:34:10Speaker 3: Nicki Minajeen doing daughter Down all.
- 1:34:11Speaker 7: Week okay and for Universe hour.
- 1:34:14Speaker 29: Just just.
- 1:34:16Speaker 7: Yes now real quick too.
- 1:34:18Speaker 24: I want to mention and I feel like, you know,
- 1:34:20Speaker 24: because this is Cardi B's first time back on ESNL
- 1:34:23Speaker 24: since like twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, and I didn't really
- 1:34:26Speaker 24: see a lot of places because I feel like the
- 1:34:28Speaker 24: Grammys kind of took over.
- 1:34:29Speaker 7: But Cardi B was on SNL. She was a musical guest.
- 1:34:32Speaker 24: Pete Davison also had a performance with an sn L
- 1:34:36Speaker 24: or pop up performance as well too, so on to
- 1:34:38Speaker 24: salute them, and a lot of people pointed out the
- 1:34:40Speaker 24: fact that she chose she did every time in Bodega Baddie,
- 1:34:43Speaker 24: But people loved the Bodega Baddie performance, just you know,
- 1:34:45Speaker 24: pointing out the fact of the times. And she brought
- 1:34:47Speaker 24: uh Dominican recording artists l Prodigtgio. I probably set that
- 1:34:51Speaker 24: wrong on stage as well too, which was a big
- 1:34:54Speaker 24: deal as well. And they talked a bit about ice
- 1:34:56Speaker 24: and one of the skits that Pete Davison did, I
- 1:34:58Speaker 24: don't have time to play, but.
- 1:35:00Speaker 2: Why not playing. I don't know Pete did, doesn't that
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: as we get.
- 1:35:02Speaker 7: Let's let's take a listen to Pete Davison talk about ice.
- 1:35:05Speaker 3: My name is Tom Holman. Now, who could tell me
- 1:35:07Speaker 3: why we're here in Minneapolis? This could be wrong, but
- 1:35:10Speaker 3: army close. We're here to detain and deport legal immigrants
- 1:35:15Speaker 3: who have committed crimes. That is literally the first I'm
- 1:35:19Speaker 3: hearing of that.
- 1:35:20Speaker 2: Well it shouldn't be.
- 1:35:22Speaker 3: Remember, the job ultimately is about keeping America safe from
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: what This could be wrong, but don lemon.
- 1:35:30Speaker 2: That is wrong.
- 1:35:31Speaker 3: Yes, it's criminals. Let's recap what have we learned today?
- 1:35:35Speaker 16: This could be wrong, but that you hired a bunch
- 1:35:38Speaker 16: of angry, aggressive guys, gave us guns and didn't train us.
- 1:35:41Speaker 3: So this is maybe what you wanted to happen. Oh,
- 1:35:44Speaker 3: come on, man, don't start thinking now.
- 1:35:48Speaker 11: Salute to Pete Davis.
- 1:35:50Speaker 5: You know, Pete has original an original podcast on Netflix's

- 1:39:34Speaker 2: didn't know. I didn't know.
- 1:39:37Speaker 22: So let me tell you a story about the time
- 1:39:39Speaker 22: America looked at black children, watched them struggle on tests
- 1:39:43Speaker 22: designed to confuse the hell out of.
- 1:39:45Speaker 9: Them, and said, might'st be the bananas, and I'm not exaggerating.
- 1:39:49Speaker 2: Stay with me now.
- 1:39:50Speaker 22: In nineteen sixteen, a group of psychologists led by Robert M.
- 1:39:54Speaker 22: Yerks he was the president of the American Psychological Association.
- 1:39:58Speaker 22: It created the Army and Beta Tests. Now, these tests
- 1:40:02Speaker 22: were specifically designed to measure the intelligence of military recruits
- 1:40:07Speaker 22: and help the Army distinguish those of superior mental ability
- 1:40:11Speaker 22: from those who were mentally inferior.
- 1:40:13Speaker 2: Those are they words not mine?
- 1:40:16Speaker 22: But here's the thing. The test wasn't measuring what they knew.
- 1:40:19Speaker 22: It was measuring what they'd been exposed to. Questions about
- 1:40:22Speaker 22: brand names, tennis, scoring luxury items, things that.
- 1:40:26Speaker 2: Poor kids and rural kids and black kids had never seen.
- 1:40:30Speaker 22: Hell, if I ask you to spell Christian Lubaton or
- 1:40:33Speaker 22: tell me who won the World Cup or the Last
- 1:40:35Speaker 22: Masters in order to get a job.
- 1:40:38Speaker 2: You're probably gonna be uneployed as hell.
- 1:40:40Speaker 22: But when the black soldiers scored lower, the eugenesis, said
- 1:40:43Speaker 22: fo Off Broth.
- 1:40:45Speaker 2: Carl Brigham, he was one of York's team members.
- 1:40:48Speaker 22: He wrote a book in nineteen twenty three called The
- 1:40:51Speaker 22: Study of American Intelligence.
- 1:40:53Speaker 2: I looked it up. You can buy for twenty five
- 1:40:55Speaker 2: bucks on Amazon.
- 1:40:56Speaker 22: In that book, he argues that the decline of American
- 1:40:59Speaker 22: intelligence was due to race mixing and immigration, and he
- 1:41:03Speaker 22: used those Army test scores as proofs.
- 1:41:07Speaker 2: And then you know what he did. He went on
- 1:41:09Speaker 2: to create the sat Now you let that sink in.
- 1:41:13Speaker 22: But there was a black scholar who saw through it all,
- 1:41:16Speaker 22: Horace Man Bond, And up until this day, the only
- 1:41:20Speaker 22: Horus that I had ever acknowledged played for the Chicago
- 1:41:23Speaker 22: Bulls alongside Michael Jordan and wore goggles.
- 1:41:26Speaker 2: They had a twin brother. But this black academic decided
- 1:41:29Speaker 2: to fight pseudo science with actual science. Horace.
- 1:41:33Speaker 22: He studied them test scores, really studied them test scores,
- 1:41:36Speaker 22: and he found something that the Eugenesis never wanted anybody
- 1:41:39Speaker 22: to see. See the poor white kids in Arkansas, they
- 1:41:43Speaker 22: scored lower than the black kids in the urban areas.
- 1:41:46Speaker 2: Then he asked a question that ended careers.
- 1:41:50Speaker 17: All the exponents of intelligence tests prepared to assert that
- 1:41:54Speaker 17: the white population of Arkansas is inheritedly and race infyria
- 1:42:01Speaker 17: to the whites of another section of the country.
- 1:42:06Speaker 22: Silence, yeah, hushmouth. It basically showed how absurd and biased.
- 1:42:11Speaker 22: Them stupid scientific racial arguments are because Horace proved what
- 1:42:15Speaker 22: we already knew them tests wasn't measuring intelligence. They was
- 1:42:18Speaker 22: measuring access, resources, exposure, familiarity, segregation, and opportunity.
- 1:42:25Speaker 2: And you know what's crazy.
- 1:42:26Speaker 22: Even that goofy man Carl Brigham, that invented the SAT
- 1:42:29Speaker 22: eventually admitted it. Years later he called his own work
- 1:42:33Speaker 22: without foundation. But by then, man, the damage had been done.
- 1:42:37Speaker 22: The tests were in the schools, the policies was in place,
- 1:42:40Speaker 22: the assumptions were baked in hell, I think I scored
- 1:42:43Speaker 22: a eight sixty on my SAT. But Horaceman Bond, Oh,
- 1:42:46Speaker 22: he went on to become the first black president of
- 1:42:49Speaker 22: Lincoln University. He up the NAACP build a legal case
- 1:42:53Speaker 22: for Brown versus Board.
- 1:42:54Speaker 2: Of Education, which we will discuss this season, and his son,
- 1:42:58Speaker 2: Julian Bond, became the chairman.
- 1:43:00Speaker 22: Of the NAACP. The apple didn't fall too far from
- 1:43:04Speaker 22: the truth. Speaking of apples, the bananas weren't the problem,
- 1:43:09Speaker 22: The snacks weren't the problem. The children weren't the problem.
- 1:43:14Speaker 22: The tests were the problem. They always were.
- 1:43:19Speaker 2: And I didn't know. Maybe you didn't either.
- 1:43:22Speaker 3: I didn't know it was time to get up out
- 1:43:24Speaker 3: of here. Charlamagne, you've got a positive note.
- 1:43:27Speaker 5: Yes I do, man, and it is a fantastic quote.
- 1:43:29Speaker 5: It's an oldie book, goodie.
- 1:43:30Speaker 11: But I just want to remind y'all. I want to
- 1:43:32Speaker 11: remind y'all of this on this Monday morning.
- 1:43:34Speaker 5: Be more concerned with your character and your reputation, because
- 1:43:38Speaker 5: your character is what you really are, while your reputation
- 1:43:41Speaker 5: is merely what others think you are.
- 1:43:43Speaker 11: That is from the great coach John. Wouldn't apply that
- 1:43:46Speaker 11: to your life today.
- 1:43:48Speaker 6: We heard that months ago.
- 1:43:50Speaker 2: You should have it.
- 1:43:51Speaker 3: John wouldn't said it goes for UCLA. He said that
- 1:43:55Speaker 3: years ago.
- 1:43:56Speaker 2: You actually should have heard a decades ago. Breakfast Curt bitches,
- 1:44:02Speaker 2: you're finished for yadut
