- 16:15We don't family, It's just like it's just like it's just like it's just
- 16:23like that talk that Natasha and Clinton Barton. I like, yeah, that
- 16:27time of Budapest. What happened Budapest? So greetings, welcome to the good
- 16:41So I can't believe it's Thursday. I can't either. Tomorrow's my actual Friday.
- 16:48Literally, yeah, come on, come on weekend, Come on weekend,
- 16:53come on and stay for a little bit. I'm just because I don't
- 17:00last weekend? Ship? Can we say loving prayers and good vibes to all
- 17:03the folks? Said Chroma Con? Because they are? Did they speaking speaking
- 17:10of Chroma Con? Did they find another venue? They did, but it
- 17:14came with a lot of conditions. I'm on their discord when I tell you
- 17:18them. Folks are working and busting their ass to get it done. Unfortunately,
- 17:22vendors can't come because they have one hundred vendors, but they only have
- 17:26room for thirty, so they're not going to let any of them. So
- 17:30it's gonna be just attendees. And it's it's a it's constant. I don't
- 17:36know where the new venue is to be honest, but I'm I'm definitely reading
- 17:41up on this and goodness keep it und the crew. Shout out to the
- 17:47crew over a chroma ConA. They really did try to put a big,
- 17:49a good thing together and just circumstances just was not on their side. So
- 17:56Hilton call that is sometimes it was it was the Hilton, wasn't it the
- 18:04last minute calls to them and yeah, it's it's it was ugly. I
- 18:11hated to see it was like it's imploding and I hate seeing that, you
- 18:14know, especially when it's especially a black ring con. On top of that,
- 18:18it's when we we are pride. I don't want to say pride to
- 18:22ourselves, but we stand on business to you know, support said black on
- 18:26cons and when they really are putting in the work, really are putting in
- 18:30the work. If there was napping con all that, none of this would
- 18:33have happened. Yeah, so this can happen everywhere because everywhere don't have it.
- 18:40Why don't we start looking we the collective way, the Queens, we
- 18:45start looking into places that pushed us out. Okay, I say, you
- 18:48know what the hell I mean? The British queen, which what you know
- 18:52what I mean, the queens, royal, the royal, we us and
- 19:02uncles and siblings. I knew a cure. I knew a cure man.
- 19:06But still, but go ahead and say, so what were you saying?
- 19:12What? We need to start collaborating with black owned hotels? We collaborating establishments.
- 19:22I know they are like I don't want to say airb and bees,
- 19:26but like ranches plantat there's actually plantations. But you know what I meant,
- 19:33though, There is actually an association for black owned hotels and resorts that I'll
- 19:41put out. Damn, I remember the organization. I'll put in the chat.
- 19:44But I would highly suggest those that do do black cons in those areas
- 19:48reach out to them, just because they're more susceptible to not putting a lot
- 19:52of conditions on us. Say the bees are be Napkin hotels, Cough find
- 19:59them coffee if it's the one I'm thinking of. But I can't, like
- 20:03you, Spartan, I can't think of the name. But I've seen them
- 20:06before. I've even posted it before. So if yeah, if we can,
- 20:11I agree, Lady Mandlord, we might need to start looking elsewhere to
- 20:15her places that are more accepting and look like us. I mean, we
- 20:21hate to be that one, but at the same time we don't because I
- 20:23want to be comfortable and I want the people that are putting things together that
- 20:27make me comfortable to also be comfortable. I'm not with the slick shit no
- 20:33more. Not to mention, not to mention it, just they would understand
- 20:42certain plights that we go through being a being a business themselves and having to
- 20:48build that up, so they would they have a more understanding what's happening.
- 20:52So I think it's just comparative. Shout out to queeny Co's place for several
- 20:57reasons. The once she celebrated her birthday as well the magazine, so she's
- 21:03being Aaron's being featured in one of the cosplay magazines. So shout out to
- 21:07Queenie CON's plays. She is such a sweetheart. Oh my gosh, it's
- 21:10such a sweetheart. So that's that's it. That's it, that's it.
- 21:15That's the one. Now. So the latest the latest update they just posted
- 21:21about fifteen minutes ago, says good after, good evening everyone. We apologised
- 21:23for the lay. The address for the new venue is off of Greenmount Avenue
- 21:29is called It's a place called Open Works. They're graciously opened their doors for
- 21:33us to be able to do our best and provide provide our tenms with a
- 21:36con Friday, Saturday and Sunday gonna be from nine to eight and ninety six.
- 21:40Unfortunately, we are still holding out hope to provide enough space to house
- 21:42our vendors and panels by the morning. But in the meantime, please visit
- 21:47our vendors on the event hee page. So when we tell y'all when these
- 21:52black owned cons are out here working, y'all need to stop putting money into
- 21:56these cons that don't give a shit about us, stop doing that. It's
- 22:00not bitching that we're not perfect, okay, because that is just so fucked
- 22:04up that you want this. But it counts with conditions as too far.
- 22:07It says there's a there's a page where you can voice your concerns saying,
- 22:14hey, this was good, however this that you how to drop the ball
- 22:18over here for whatever reason, because we get it, we know people who
- 22:22run cons. It's not easy at all. It's not stressful. It is.
- 22:27It's not easy. It's stressful. I don't know how how Hilton does
- 22:33it every year. He I mean just the insurance alone is uh yeah,
- 22:41you know, so I mean you're you're there is no downtime like you might
- 22:45get twenty four hours at best after con is over, because then you're planning
- 22:48for the following year. So it's it. There's nobody, no means,
- 22:52an easy to ask. But we commend those who really are putting your foot
- 22:56in it to build something that reper since us right. I know Spartan put
- 23:04it in the comment section, but it's the place or the people are called
- 23:11the National Association of Black Hotel Owners, Operators and Developers. Not only do
- 23:18they pool resources, they do actually show you how to actually join the hospitality
- 23:23industry. So it's also a doorway in. That's the reason why I'm like
- 23:27cons black people, hotels, resorts together. It can be done. It
- 23:34can be done. So uh shout out, shout out to the team over
- 23:40at Chromo Con. We wish nothing but the best, and I hope this
- 23:42thing turns around for you in a very positive manner because and you and here's
- 23:48the other thing. They were very forthcoming, they were very upfront. They
- 23:52they didn't hide their hand from anything. This is what we're looking for,
- 23:56transparency. So if it starts to kind of buckle some where. At least
- 24:00you're getting up front and saying, hey, we're really trying X y Z
- 24:04is happening something. Yeah, they're not like other places like Black Sands.
- 24:12Wow fired for the record. For the record, Me and Spartan kind of
- 24:18been on the thing today. I don't know what it is. Oh,
- 24:22you know what it is. I know what it is. And doctor Umar
- 24:27in a video. First of all, I don't care for either one of
- 24:30them. I want to I want to talk about that real quick. So
- 24:34I checked my my personal well my the Chris Fury, my Chris Fiery.
- 24:38I G page. You know I always clear street me. So uh.
- 24:45The first thing I seen on that main page was a video, and it
- 24:48was a video with doctor mar Johnson and the Cannon. Now they're talking about
- 24:52what goes on in schools and how to you know, get the young black
- 24:56men and everything else. So far, the conversation has not turned left.
- 25:00I agree, what's going on, there's it's nothing bad, right, So
- 25:04it's going on for a few minutes and then all of a sudden, bam,
- 25:07little Manny pops up Like the video cuts how little Manny. I didn't
- 25:11even look to see who posted a video. I just mean, what's this
- 25:15conversation going on? And all of a sudden, little Manny pops up and
- 25:18he's talking about his book, and I'm like, if this corry my PTSD
- 25:26just kicked it, Like what the hell, snake oil ass salesman, bitch
- 25:34my wife, this dark come out of nowhere till I buy my book.
- 25:38This is why I'm so successful. No, people want to punch you in
- 25:41the face there, buddy. It's done very well for someone that looks like
- 25:45a thumb. Hey, wait a minute, wait a minute. He looked
- 25:56like this. We are no return from this. It's been a while.
- 26:10And you know where do you know where the interview was at? Uh?
- 26:15It was? It was on Nick Cannon's podcast. Yeah yeah, alypse that
- 26:22okay. But in the conversation, the conversation that was being had was about
- 26:26teachers in education and educating just young black kids, period, and completely agreed
- 26:33what was going on. Despite the source, completely we can agree what was
- 26:37going on. This This is true. You do need to see more of
- 26:40our faces in the education system to guide these kids. You just do.
- 26:45And it's not a lot of black males that's in that situation, which is
- 26:49also true, just just like I said, despite like I said, despite
- 26:56the source the mess oney, mm hmm. And it was you know,
- 27:03so so far I'm like, all right, not disagree with what you're saying.
- 27:06I'm listening, okay, okay, yeah, and then it went left.
- 27:11I went last so hard. It's like, yo, First of all,
- 27:14Nick Cannons, I got too many babies podcasts comes up here. And
- 27:18then the fact that I'm like, tell me, you're gonna say something about
- 27:23what you've just seen. No, you raised the book up and anyway,
- 27:30mm hmm, I heard your computer. We're going on to the next thing.
- 27:37I ain't my book. So the fact that Will just said he's basically
- 27:45a talking thumb, so oh wait, here we go. So my mutant
- 28:11power keeps kicking in and I'm waiting for it to try my hand at the
- 28:15lottery. But what I mean by that is Henry Cavill has signed up with
- 28:18Marvel. Mm hmmm. I've said it on this show. After the whole
- 28:25Black Adam fiasco. I said it on the show. I said, wouldn't
- 28:27it be a kicking ass if he signed up with Kevin Figgy and some bitch
- 28:32he did? Mm hmmm. As to what role. You don't know,
- 28:40Henry Cavill, Call, call Caville, Henry Cavill, superman, what that
- 28:51is he gonna? No, sure, he didn't. He didn't say it.
- 29:02No one that's part of any kind of Marvel project said it. They
- 29:06came out and said it. Marvel came out and said we've hired. They
- 29:11didn't say the role. People are speculating Doom. They're speculating Captain Britain.
- 29:17They're not even even as far as saying They even went as far as saying
- 29:23Cyclops. And I'm just like, be really ripped. Why, I mean
- 29:34ninety seven it'll be ninety seven X men Cyclops. Yeah, of course has
- 29:38been lifted. And Harry Campbell's when Cyclops say to me, my X men,
- 29:48you better bring your ass, I wonder who they would give because yeah,
- 29:57like that, you know, so somebody meant when they mentioned Doom.
- 30:02They mentioned Doom, and I looked at him. I'm like, okay,
- 30:04Doom is vain mm hmm. He's barely an attractive guy, and he gets
- 30:11his face burned mm hmm. And I'm thinking, can we see him in
- 30:15that in that aspect? I don't know I can because the suit. Yeah,
- 30:21I mean, technically anybody could do it because it's just a suit.
- 30:25Yeah. Everything else is everything else is dandurantap ship in a voice. Mm
- 30:30hmmm. I don't want to do all that for my doctor, doom doctor
- 30:37nobody does. I just I just want I'm like, oh. Then there
- 30:41was another one, Hyperion. He was that was hyperiod. You everget voice
- 30:47squadron Supreme, Well he's he's a ginger. Yeah, yeah, why is
- 30:53supreme? I can see it. Yeah, so I can see they do
- 31:02have the quantum bands and play they do. Oh I love being black,
- 31:08I swear so. So there's there's several. There's Doc Sampson. Oh I
- 31:18forgot about yo, know not it was hanging out there. I couldn't just
- 31:32let that fly. That's a good move. It would be dope. Though
- 31:42you're correct, he would be brock. That's not a bad pick. Actually,
- 31:48as a villain, he could be Onslaught says he can pull out,
- 31:52he could pull off. Yes, I was just saying power man, he
- 31:56could pull off side. That would be not busy. Great minds think of
- 32:00like sir, shout out to BZ. He's got a he's got an event.
- 32:04He's actually airing uh in Brightest Day in l A at the Chinese Theater.
- 32:10So if you I think it's this Chinese theater, stop on through the
- 32:22stars, and that the storyline I wish they would put on the screen,
- 32:25because Brightest Day, Blackest Night was just phenomenal stands for depressed comics. Why
- 32:34are you expecting this? His version is John Stewart's day off, but you
- 32:39ends up his day off as much as as much as I would love to
- 32:44see Black at Night with your navy. But come on now, So while
- 32:49we're talking about while we're talking about uh, Henry Caville, mm hmm,
- 32:57James Gunn never disappoints. Hm. No, no, you gotta keep behind.
- 33:07That was so quick, mar did you wrong? Relax? This is
- 33:13the first look at the suit, all right. I don't care about I
- 33:17don't hate it. Yeah, a little a little bit of keingdom come,
- 33:21a little bit of the authority. I can live with that. That right
- 33:23there, he has first looks at the new suit for Superman, which is
- 33:27the title of the movie Superman. And it's different from every other title because,
- 33:30let's face it, none of them have just been called straight out Superman.
- 33:36Even the original was called Superman. The movie yep, Legacy was just
- 33:40I think it's just Legacy was just the working title. Yeah, but even
- 33:46Man of Steel wasn't called Superman, it was just called Man of Steel.
- 33:50See, so m just gun is he's all about transparency, Thank you,
- 33:54miss the gun. Uh does the snow mean you're getting the Fortress of Solitude?
- 34:00That's what I'm thinking. I want to say that, right, I
- 34:02want to say that's the truth. Yeah, so I'm thinking too. And
- 34:06and even though he said this is not an Orangin story, I wouldn't be.
- 34:09I would. I would love to see that. I want to see
- 34:12his part. I want to see his vision. So you're giving us,
- 34:15mister terrific, I'm already excited. Oh hell, he's given them, mister
- 34:19Terrific. I think it's I think hawt girl. Uh hold on, let
- 34:22me see he's got another one. Oh yes, Maria Cabrella, Yeah he's
- 34:32yeah, that's because we got uh freaking Nathan Fillion as as a Green Liner.
- 34:37So yeah, he's given us, he's giving us, he's he's feeding
- 34:42us. Well mm hmm, I'm not complaining, James the Justice Society.
- 34:51I would be over the moon. Hey, he's already given us Creature Commando.
- 34:54So I'm pretty sure Justice Society is away. It's another step off ye,
- 35:00his obscure stuff, so whatever, But you know what, and that's
- 35:04what works. You know, if anybody knows anything obscure and this is anything
- 35:08outside of the Guardians, if you've seen any James gun work, slither A
- 35:14is a prime example. Why you like that to say that we like what
- 35:25we like, we like what we like. No, don't put that out
- 35:29there for the world and scene. Put that away back in the closet.
- 35:37Look, she's got she's got pipes. She did disappoint I mean the movie
- 35:44bomb, but she did a black she did a black area. She was
- 35:46she was. In fact, I was just upset at the studio because they
- 35:53I was upset at the studio when they're saying, oh, yes, these
- 35:55fight scenes are on par with John wick I'm like, seriously, lies down
- 36:05the stairs when he felt down the stairs and when they said that the Harley
- 36:10Quinn film had fight scenes that were akin to John wick and I had to
- 36:16look at him like, did you see the same movie we seen? Said
- 36:22they weren't. They weren't horrible fight scenes, but they're definitely not John Wickland
- 36:29said been magical. Anybody falling down the steps. I just hear Eddie Murphy
- 36:34in my head. Oh Jesus, griss hell me, Lord Jesus, watching
- 36:40John Wick for and watching John Wick go up the stairs fighting his ass,
- 36:45and then me and my wife are in the theater like some god, what
- 36:52the fuck out loud with full throated not just once yeah, since that it
- 37:00was. It was. I'm sitting up there. I'm like, you don't
- 37:04have much time to get up, but yes, so uh Justice League.
- 37:14Justice League Crisis infinitel arts will be the last time, the last time we
- 37:21will hear the iconic duo of Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill together for the last
- 37:25time. Mm hmmm, at which Mark Hamill has already said that after that
- 37:34he done, He's done with the Joker. He's done. He's he's actually
- 37:37gone on record and said he can't, he can't do it. He can't
- 37:42do it with a clean heart if his brother isn't there. And I can,
- 37:45I can, and I think as fans we can understand that they laid
- 37:51off each other, so of course it's like you can't, you can't just
- 37:55you can't just be joker to somebody else there it's too awkward. I already
- 38:02have an idea of who they're gonna who they're going to suggest to replace them.
- 38:07Well, Toy Baker does, Mark Hamil Joker, he does, he
- 38:16does, he does. It's very very very very adept so and and while
- 38:25it's it's not so much, it's more of a bitter sweet. It's not
- 38:30heartbreaking. It's more of a bitter sweet because, like I said, as
- 38:32fans, we we wouldn't have it no other way pretty much, you know
- 38:37we we we were just like, oh, we're bringing in, we're bringing
- 38:42in into a new Batman. And let's just say it's jensenn Ackles, who's
- 38:45already doing the voice. But it seemed but the chemistry is just it ain't
- 38:49the same. Right, it might work well together, they might work great
- 38:52together, but it's not the same. It's just it's just you did red
- 38:55Hood. Once you submit yourself as red Hood, who the hell you you
- 39:00know? Just that type of I can only hold that talk so long.
- 39:10I don't know how God does it now. Okay, could hold handley,
- 39:23mister Hammill, but I would love to meet you in person. He loves
- 39:28to talk, obviously, so there's that. But yeah, I'm not approved.
- 39:34I'm not opposed to that. It's just I'm glad. It's just it
- 39:38is what it is. Yeah, you can always go back and watch the
- 39:42good parts. Oh yeah, yeah, you enjoyed that. Physical media.
- 39:47Get out of my head, musical media for the wind. Please continue,
- 39:53because I don't understand, and I will stand on this hill. We're seeing
- 40:00the crumble of EA Sports, the crumble of Sony. We're seeing the crumble
- 40:07of these video game companies. We're seeing Blu rays and DVDs go to the
- 40:12wayside. You're seeing your favorite movies, favorite shows, whatever they have you.
- 40:15That was That was the bright spot. Nobody said you had to buy
- 40:19everything, but you might want a full season of Wanda Vision and how you
- 40:24have it because we don't know when Disney Plus is gonna just say up and
- 40:28say, okay, we got to clear our servers out. Let's pull this
- 40:31into the Disney right. Well, yes, we deserve to have that.
- 40:37Give the people a choice. Why should you buy your stuff on digital and
- 40:42say, oh, this is just saving space. Guess what they're doing saving
- 40:46space something? And if you think you purchased digital media, and you think
- 40:51you purchased it and you own it. You don't ask Apple, ask Apple
- 40:55users and fundamation owners. Right now, I think you were going, now
- 41:02that's crazy. For a second, I'm just saying, I'm just I'm not
- 41:12opposed to buying digital, but I am opposed to you getting rid of physical
- 41:15media in lieu of having digital. Mm hmm, I mean just charge Look,
- 41:22look, I'm all about keeping my money in my pocket. Hm.
- 41:27But charge me more if it's really if it comes down to y'all want money,
- 41:30charge me more, charge me the extra fin dollars. You're gonna do
- 41:34it any god damn way, whatever format you give it, you you put
- 41:37it out. Who what me? Nice? Oh baby? Sales is insane.
- 41:57That's the thing though, it's just that you would think the whole move
- 42:00digital media is like, Okay, well you're moving to digital media. Your
- 42:01cost come down, your cost ingfree sins make it makes sense, just like
- 42:08the same mindset of you know, I'm sorry to E three went under,
- 42:14but E three was one of those events that people actually could come and interact
- 42:20with these companies and come away with something, and then the genius them away
- 42:25with a lot, actually a lot. But then you go virtual because oh
- 42:31this cuts down costs. We have to worry about finding venues. You're now
- 42:36causing people to not want to be apart because not everybody wants to look at
- 42:38a screen all fucking day. They want to interact with other people. So
- 42:43you give something to go for, they'll do it. It's when you have
- 42:51when you had, well, no go ahead and the cale I want to
- 42:57see what you gotta say. Part of the issue with E three is that
- 43:02they waited too long to open themselves up to the everyday regular consumer to attend
- 43:07there, to attend their their event. It was industry only for so long,
- 43:14and they get like crazy. It was only the last three years that
- 43:20normal people were allowed to attend, and it got bigger because they let regular
- 43:25people in. And I think if they had that, if they had it
- 43:29for more than the three years before, you know, twenty twenty, it
- 43:31would have been sustainable. They'd probably still be an E three now because there'd
- 43:36be an incentive because I knew it was on my bucket list of things I
- 43:38wanted to go to, and now I never can. E three packs to
- 43:45the video, the Tokyo Video Game Show, I mean there's a lot,
- 43:49a lot of them. They still have the Consumer Electronics Show, but what
- 43:52kind of what kind of a backbone does that really have? Because they're breaking
- 43:55away from physical m M media, you know, in technology as a whole,
- 44:00they're just going streamline with it. We're gonna virtual. Shut your ass
- 44:05up. But see that's the thing. Everybody, everybody's jumped on board and
- 44:08they forgot, they forgot the back end, like the that's gonna bother a
- 44:14lot of people, especially when you say, oh, we're taking all the
- 44:19blue y blah blah blah blah blah. Okay, but then you turn around
- 44:22and say, but you can't keep the digital that you buy. What was
- 44:24the point? M hm? Is it really petty that HG DVD can make
- 44:29a comeback? Right now? Yo? About that a couple of weeks ago.
- 44:37They're gonna walk up. They're gonna walk up on you like hustleman from
- 44:39Martin. It's like, hey, I got that for you, cheat,
- 44:42I got kids born are not gonna know what h is. So so I'm
- 44:52all about keeping physical media. I'm not against digital. Get that under understood.
- 44:55I'm not against the digital. I'm just against you shoehorning strictly digital knowing
- 45:02there's no other option. That's not right. You can't do anything with that.
- 45:07I think that's exactly why people start making their own digital libraries instead of
- 45:12relying on just like animation or crunchy all or whatever, because they will literally
- 45:15use external hard drives and just make their own digital libraries so that no one
- 45:22can. You can't take U let you take the drive. Oh it's a
- 45:28beautiful time to see black people creating servers and servers and NAS systems to actually
- 45:34stream anime from. And I'm just I feel so proud. Just look if
- 45:37if we are if we are anything, we are innovative as ship. I
- 45:43swear we will away every time, like like they say in Jurassic Part life
- 45:50finds a way. That's why people are always like, oh my goodness,
- 45:55like y'all think we won't go back to watching anime and parts on YouTube,
- 46:00like y'all think we won't like literally a whole decade of us, like,
- 46:07hey, did you see that? Look? I got this for you real
- 46:17quick. I got any in the discord. There was real HeiG, it's
- 46:20real hot. I got problem going back to the underground fans of Problem Dude,
- 46:27I used to stream from some wear Thats website with like not con at
- 46:30the end it was I, oh, are you look? Look there there
- 46:37was a time. There was a time. There was a time. That's
- 46:40how I found out about Black the live action Black Dynamite. There was a
- 46:44time, and nobody was like, I'm talking to people at work, what
- 46:47does Black Dynamite go to this site? You're gonna see a bunch of p
- 46:52s as they came in. Next day was like yo, I'm like,
- 46:57yeah, I don't know when this movie drops, but all I say is
- 47:00the grand lines will get very popular. The grand line did Black Dynamite very
- 47:07well? Harris's her mind right now? Can we can we talk about that
- 47:12thing that happened this week that we thought we'd never see because they're not allowed
- 47:16to show. It depends on which thing at that the pilot we can Okay,
- 47:25I know you're talking about that. We can we can talk about the
- 47:29pilot. So there's there's once again, Yeah, if y'all want to there
- 47:36is a we can't tell you where. We ain't gonna tell you. It
- 47:39don't exist. It don't exist, but if it did, but if it
- 47:45did, there's a Boondocks pilot out right now floating around. You have to
- 47:52find it yourselves. You cannot reveal our sources. But it ain't the source
- 48:02that you think it is because they were get in trouble. It's definitely not
- 48:07the source you think we know. They are literally like, it's not us.
- 48:12Was this We ain't got They ain't got nothing to do with it,
- 48:14right, We don't mess with b E. T and Tyler Perry. We
- 48:16ain't trying to take on Sony. I mean technically they could because the way
- 48:22Sony's going right now, they kind of got a shot at Sony. But
- 48:27I'm just saying so it all depends. But yes, there there is a
- 48:30Boondocks pilot that's floating about out there. Uh, check it out at your
- 48:35leisure. M hm, post at your own leisure. We did not tell
- 48:39you to do that. Don't do that at your own legal risk word keyword
- 48:47legal. You're right, maham ah, it probably no, it wasn't.
- 48:52No. Ryan Reynolds is a bit cleaner. He's big about it. He's
- 48:54clean. He's not taking anybody down with the ship. He's just like,

- 1:05:50so I didn't really grasp you know what I'm saying. I watched it a
- 1:05:55little bit when I got older, but I was like, I wanted to

- 1:06:01y'all talking about. Listen said, money long over here, money long.
- 1:06:16I got nothing my So there it is, Okay, that's on the list.
- 1:06:30Uh So, Yeah, there was many a time I've watched this one
- 1:06:34coming up, and I've seen an syndication for him, so watching it and
- 1:06:40just like they never make it out them got married to a football player,
- 1:06:44and what happened brother busting his damn knee never made I'm like, god,

- 1:07:01blah blah blah towards me and practice you know what. That was not Chris,
- 1:07:09But that was the beginning of trauma porn. Yeah, that was the
- 1:07:14beginning. That was the origin. They just never had a way. Man.
- 1:07:18It was I'm like, I think I was done after watching all this
- 1:07:21city. I think I had watched them all up to that point. Like
- 1:07:24JJ started working for like an advertising company, didn't work. Yeah, I'm
- 1:07:30just like, man, JJ, you was making more bank Peyton's these sisters,
- 1:07:34these models at the house. I'm just saying. And had had sisters

- 1:07:48and like, yes they had body, but he would do a bang up
- 1:07:54job on their art. So yeah, they was paying them sometimes even more,
- 1:08:00he say, he said twenty five, they give him thirty, thirty
- 1:08:01five, forty. He was giving them money they was giving them money.
- 1:08:05You had a gift. You know. It was in this contract to say
- 1:08:12Dynamite every episode. You didn't have to say every dog own episode. It's
- 1:08:16in your contract. One Dynamite episode. It was the Call of Godzilla meets
- 1:08:23Martha Face. That makes sense to me. Here's another show. Jefferson's Yeah,
- 1:08:30oh yes, how old was he in that picture? He was?
- 1:08:39He was in his thirties. And Isabella's uh, Sanford was in her forties.
- 1:08:45She was older. Crazy, she looks great. Yeah, man looks
- 1:08:50old his entire life. He look Oh, I think only because of his
- 1:08:58hair. Oh yeah, I mean right, he looks his entire life.
- 1:09:11Yeah, I think I'm gonna have to stick with that. But always yeah,
- 1:09:16I agree with you. But I think he stopped aging at a certain
- 1:09:19point and then it's yeah, and that was it. Yeah, I can't.
- 1:09:26I can't agree with that. But you watched watching the photos. Gotta
- 1:09:30had the young Morgan photos too. Has Morgan Freeman ever been young in the
- 1:09:36same vault they are in Morgan age? Is Morgan Freeman? Actually? God?
- 1:09:44Because good Lord this day, I've not seen a young Morgan ever.
- 1:09:48I'm sorry. Now, of those Disney specials where he's talking where he sounds
- 1:09:55like God, and we're now going to talk about the platfus. I'm like,
- 1:10:00even when they right now, even when they did, was it not
- 1:10:04Evan Almighty, but it was even when it did. Bruce Wayne, he
- 1:10:11was like, and Morgan Freeman's guy, I'm like, that works. If
- 1:10:15you ever imagine, if you want to imagine the voice of the Almighty,
- 1:10:18I'm like, yeah, I can see that either either him. Y'all state
- 1:10:23God wanted two. So The Jeffersons was about George Louis jeff Louise Jefferson who
- 1:10:30owned a dry clean business and they just finally made it and they moved the
- 1:10:35other side of the town and he was living in an apartment in the sky.
- 1:10:40They were still in the house space Grease Don't Burn in the Grease Don't
- 1:10:43Burn. For years, I've wondered about that, about anybody had a time
- 1:10:56where they can run the dozens. It was Marley, I'm sorry, said
- 1:11:03no, not gonna lie. The theme songs on a lot of these black
- 1:11:15sitcoms. They slapped every look. We were watching Amen the pilot episode and
- 1:11:21I'm looking every last one of us behind the scenes, we was all,
- 1:11:27yeah, you know how to make a song, you know how to make
- 1:11:33a catchy, because like everybody was like, you know how to make it.
- 1:11:41We're on the two in the fold, not the one in the two
- 1:11:43two and the four one always on and you know what the part is.
- 1:11:46That's how you know as a people, we never need practice because everybody was
- 1:11:49on beat because because like I started singing it, and next thing you know,
- 1:11:55I look at the screen. Whoop, whoop, he's singing it.
- 1:11:59Man, Lord seeing it, I'm like, too bad, I can't hit
- 1:12:01live on this part. I can't. We was moving. I was just
- 1:12:10like, yeah, I was just like I should take it back just to
- 1:12:12play the intro again. But yeah, So they ended up the one time
- 1:12:18I would see people just going at one of the few shows I like watching
- 1:12:23when they go at it, and it was Florence and George and they would
- 1:12:28go at it more, and I'm like, she never lost her job,
- 1:12:31and Lawrence was the main character for men care about either one of them.
- 1:12:40I will clean this house and you better not messing up what if I do.
- 1:12:47Look, she gave find out so that I can still watch that.
- 1:12:55Even the one episode they had where they were doing like a flat back episode.
- 1:13:00And it was the day that Martin Luther King got shot. Yo.
- 1:13:05They did not shy away. They did not shy away. And it was
- 1:13:10just like you thought you was getting funny high. I know you were not
- 1:13:13great serious they got they got real on that one, like he was.
- 1:13:16And George was passed. I got picked up a whole either a chair flew
- 1:13:19through the window. I'm like, yo, my business. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:13:25saved the business and ended up flinging the chair through the window because he
- 1:13:29said that. Hell, he was like they killed him and he hey him.
- 1:13:31I'm like, years later, decades later, you still feel that.
- 1:13:38So here's another show. My father raised me on SAMD for the Sun.
- 1:13:48You had that Jones plan. You knew what was what time. It was
- 1:13:55almost if you like the back of the if you like the back and forth
- 1:14:01between Florence and George, Nah, they can't hold a canon. And d
- 1:14:08didn't like brad NESSA was enemies. Iemies, you just get up and die.
- 1:14:19Well, if I look at you enough times, I might do it.
- 1:14:26They go in on each other and I was here for and I'm like,
- 1:14:30this is how you talk trash. Trash, You don't let off every
- 1:14:35moment I get. It was like every time, get, every moment I
- 1:14:40get. Every time he was talking about what he made for dinner, I'm
- 1:14:44like, this smell like one of my aunt's house. I tell you,
- 1:14:48got ham hocks and greens and corn. Yeah, I can. I can
- 1:14:51smell that. Not gonna go watch all nights because that's the closest I'll get
- 1:14:58to say, Princes between him and between him and Dela Reese, good stuff,
- 1:15:04good stuff. But uh yeah, I don't. Who watched Stanford this
- 1:15:09Sun on this on this panel? I watch that. That was one of
- 1:15:15my dad's favorites. When when talking about like I said, my mom will
- 1:15:20watch Jeffersons. So it was like Jeffersons during the day. In the evening
- 1:15:27it was Stanford the Sun. So I was like, oh, so I'm
- 1:15:30just learning how to talk trash verbatim. Then when I hit sixteen, why
- 1:15:38is your mom so smart? I showed me it was. This wasn't I
- 1:15:45didn't design this, y'all, y'all groomed me. This was okay. You
- 1:15:50also saw you laughing at it, y'all. Let me watch this man that
- 1:15:56could systematically destroy somebody with one sentence. That was just that was me learning
- 1:16:02so you said, gig, it just works, don't don't for me.
- 1:16:11No, here's another one, and it's it's it's quietly unsung, but it's
- 1:16:15it's slept On Harden. That was really good time. The way the way
- 1:16:25I looked at Mayhem, it was like, is this blue? What is
- 1:16:28you doing? H here's another show in this Harty slept it's highly slept on
- 1:16:38hanging with mister Cooper. Yeah, the original Steve Harvey show, the original
- 1:16:45let's get that and we and we say that because he was an ex NBA
- 1:16:54star, that it's not who got injured. Came back to his hometown where
- 1:16:59his stayed with his cousin. She got him a job at the high school,
- 1:17:05and he had a thing for her best friend, which was also her
- 1:17:09roommate, at which point he later marries Steve Harvey again. The ex jazz
- 1:17:15musician comes back to his hometown. He stays with his old school buddy,
- 1:17:21get him a job at the high school that he works at, falls in
- 1:17:25love with the principal, who was an old girl that he went to school
- 1:17:29with. Because the same thing happened on mister Cooper. That girl, that
- 1:17:30roommate was somebody that went to School with m h later on marys Her,
- 1:17:36I mean it's just sitting there like playing his day and Wen I mean,
- 1:17:44and he didn't he didn't need it. And the thing about Mark Cooper was
- 1:17:46he did not need a hair piece. M hm hm and Lovely Treasure,
- 1:17:57we thank you. Shame shame, shame, shame. I don't mean I
- 1:18:12don't make the rules. They set them up, I knock them down.
- 1:18:19So yeah, it's one of those shows. And and once again in Vogue
- 1:18:23saying the intro man another example of black sitcoms. I'm gonna have to do
- 1:18:32an episode of black sitcoms back in intros. Oh, that's gonna be.
- 1:18:36That's gonna be all of them. That's gonna yeah, that's it. That's
- 1:18:41it's that's it right now, it's all of them. It's it's all of
- 1:18:43them. Interpretive dance. Get up one more time. I'm done. Wow.
- 1:18:53Oh here And once again, like I mentioned earlier, h Amen,
- 1:19:00that was family. This was a Saturday night. This was Saturday night.
- 1:19:08Amen. Seven was Saturday Night. And as an s t A this was
- 1:19:13allowed. See no I got in trouble on Sunday School because I repeat a
- 1:19:18few ons from that show. Because boy, Oh boy, there was some
- 1:19:26things you just you couldn't say, you shouldn't say, also because I because
- 1:19:42Spreme Yard would only let me grab so many images. But there's another show
- 1:19:45which was I used to think was a sequel to Amen, but it's called
- 1:19:48Good News. M M yeah, I remember good News, so to of
- 1:19:53the sisters that's in Amen. This is why I thought it was a sequel,
- 1:19:56because too of the sisters that was in Amen worrying good News. Yeah,
- 1:20:01and at the same time, and this was when I first got introduced
- 1:20:04to I can't think of the actor's name, but he plays Diggle on Green
- 1:20:09Arrow on Arrow, Oh yeah, David Ram. He was much smaller.
- 1:20:15He was still tall, he was just much smaller like the David Rams.
- 1:20:18And we got on errow. I'm like, I don't know where that beast
- 1:20:20came from because I'm like, oh, that's the pre I'm like, damn,
- 1:20:25dude, you're huge somewhere between, but somewhere between Good News and Arrow
- 1:20:30Man been lifting. Yeah, I was like, okay, you got it.
- 1:20:35But yeah, it was the same venue, and it was it was
- 1:20:42in that same vein, you know, just taking place in the church setting
- 1:20:45and just having comedy whatever he was like a new preacher in the church and
- 1:20:47stuff like that. So I used to think about those at the same time,
- 1:20:51and I was like, wait, is this like a sequel? Is
- 1:20:55this like is this what happened? I don't know, Like the sisters are
- 1:20:59still around are I don't know if the same people, but uh, there
- 1:21:02was a spinoff or not. I don't think they did another one that's unsung,
- 1:21:13the Robert Townsend. That's so crazy because the two teenage leads you sort
- 1:21:26of heaverywhere in the nineteen ninety and I feel like I did not see them
- 1:21:29anywhere after that. A lot of us did. A lot of us did,
- 1:21:38Like Reggae Goman did something recently. I think she does voice work,
- 1:21:43but she's she's still in the business, just behind the scenes. But Robert
- 1:21:45Townsend and and and there is a shout out to quest Love. Uh on
- 1:21:50his podcast. He just had him on and he was talking about the parents,
- 1:21:55but he said it put him in the vein. He said he was
- 1:21:58inspired mm hmm by the Cosby Show. As many of us. This is
- 1:22:02before the putting pop, thebacco, before all of that. You put all
- 1:22:11that to the side, You put all that decide what he was talking about
- 1:22:14was was true. Everything that was in the Cosby Show was very positive,
- 1:22:16you know, exposed to a lot of culture, a lot of jazz culture,
- 1:22:20dance culture, you, African culture, you name it. They they've
- 1:22:25had greats on there. Like you didn't see a lot of that on any
- 1:22:30sitcom Black One White, you know, so you who else was gonna have
- 1:22:33Stevie wonder on. I'm just saying with with singing along with it, just
- 1:22:39singing along with them, like just singing with jamming on the one god.
- 1:22:53Uh so, yeah, he said, okay, So he said, Kenny
- 1:22:56Blank is a great composing, composed snow thing. Okay. Uh he was
- 1:23:00Big One was a stable at one point. Yeah, that's all. Yeah,
- 1:23:08he seems so. He seems so upset now. I don't know,
- 1:23:12you would think he'd be a happy we would be a happy big worm.
- 1:23:14You're still being talked about. That doesn't even make sense, nobody, that's
- 1:23:21what he is. I mean, sir, you gave us, You gave
- 1:23:26us iconic lines, you know, playing with my money, like playing with
- 1:23:29my emotions. You can win Oscar off that. So and I'm naming a
- 1:23:34couple. I'm a couple of name one Fresh Prince obviously, mm hmmm.
- 1:23:40First things first, Resting Peace, Uncle Phil Damn. Another show that,
- 1:23:47despite the comedy, still had a lot of serious moments and losing James Avery.
- 1:23:55Like I listen, I literally seen like that clip when they did the
- 1:23:59Fresh Prince reunion. Was it last year? Yeah? Last year? Yeah?
- 1:24:01And I felt that I felt the emotions. I'm like this dude was
- 1:24:05like, you know, he was Shredder for Christ's sake and James Rhodes for
- 1:24:11the Iron Man cartoon. People don't know that. So they had a a
- 1:24:17lot of stuff to talk about, and it was, Yes, it was
- 1:24:19funny. They weren't. Will was not afraid to break the fourth fourth wall
- 1:24:27more than anything else. Yeah, brought back the originally, but was like
- 1:24:32I have I apologize. I was like, oh, y'all buried the hatch.
- 1:24:35We half peace now and Will will you come on home? Brother?
- 1:24:41We was never mad at you. You felt you had to do what you
- 1:24:44had to do. That's all. Just just don't give us another just let
- 1:24:55that, just let that ride off into the good night, sir, Just
- 1:24:57let it die. I guess so so out of the parenthood, uh parent
- 1:25:10heod Fresh Prince. I didn't get to the next one yet, and I
- 1:25:13mentioned the show. What do these three shows mean to any of you guys?
- 1:25:19Oh, I was about to say something. I mean, I guess
- 1:25:24I'll be the president is probably gonna be the opposite of everyone else. I
- 1:25:28was not a fan of either of those two. So, uh, I'll
- 1:25:32start with Cosby. Wait a minute, don't come for her. She's alive
- 1:25:39her opinion. Yeah, there's I'm not a sitcoming person in general, but
- 1:25:46I have seen many of them, I realized after preparing. I was like,
- 1:25:49oh, I've seen a lot of these. Wait a minute, Yeah,
- 1:25:55it's a lot more than we think. But Cosby Show and fresh Prince
- 1:26:00they just never caught They never grasped on for me. Well, so I
- 1:26:03wasn't a fan, but I know and understand why people enjoy them. Uh,
- 1:26:10they just weren't. Weren't it for me? Because I also loved Avery
- 1:26:14and it hurt me when he passed. But it wasn't because I knew his
- 1:26:18role in Freshmans was important. But it wasn't because of that. I just
- 1:26:21knew him as a good person. So it was like, dang, like
- 1:26:25you know that was that was tough. But I also like their popular shows
- 1:26:29I get it, but I'm just not a super sick coomy person. But
- 1:26:30those two were, they definitely wouldn't be the two that I would say impacted
- 1:26:35me. Yeah, that is fair, it is Yeah. I could see
- 1:26:41here unlike a wow, literally take my card because the ship come, he
- 1:27:02tries to and try to run it again. We'll be know you have it
- 1:27:10like this and be like I did Taket, I got so unlike unlike most
- 1:27:15people who kind of get on social media and become these keyboard warriors and just
- 1:27:18say I hate it and I don't like it and never give an explanation as
- 1:27:23to why. At least at least show you said. She didn't even say
- 1:27:27she hated it. She didn't say she didn't like it. It just wasn't.
- 1:27:31But she said she understands why it stands out. See, we know
- 1:27:36how to pick them, don't We know how to pick them? Because she
- 1:27:42knew what she explained her perfectly and she knew what was going to like.
- 1:27:46This is why. That's right, right, you can wipe your card off
- 1:27:49and swipe it again. It's fine. It works. Yeah. Well,
- 1:27:58out of those Cosby Parenthood and Fresh Prince Cosby Show and The Fresh Prince Cosby
- 1:28:05Show, more so because at the time it reflected my family a lot to
- 1:28:13me, and the fact that both my parents were in the house. Both
- 1:28:16of them had semi professional type of jobs. Start again, we lived in
- 1:28:28these flappers Brooklyn, they lived in Brooklyn. It was just so much that
- 1:28:32I felt I could relate to. And you know, I come from a
- 1:28:40large West Indian family, so I'm used to having a lot of people around
- 1:28:43me, so that resonated with me as well, which they actually had a
- 1:28:45lot of on there. M I think it was was it Clear's people,
- 1:28:51No, it was Elvin that was from Trinidad, and that accent was on
- 1:28:59point. It was you talk, you talk about coming in the gate wrong
- 1:29:06and got set straight, don't you. Well, you know you don't have
- 1:29:14to make him a plate, right. Excuse me, I'll never forget that
- 1:29:18scene. That was that scene where Cosby's character just just did this, like
- 1:29:27he just sat back. Okay, that's an infamous scene. I think everybody
- 1:29:30knows. That's Oh no, everybody, that's not. That's not the scene.
- 1:29:36One of pity, that's one of the that's one of the anything from
- 1:29:41it any time, anywhere, no way. Ever. I was like yes,
- 1:29:46Claire had shot for everybody, and clearly they had kids that were my
- 1:29:49age. Vanessa the hard way did she she had the wretched worried said February
- 1:30:06in Baltimore. He decided to have big fun. But I love the fact.
- 1:30:13I love the fact. When she was she was gonna say something,
- 1:30:15Claire reached her and told her back. I said, oh, that's dead.
- 1:30:19I was he had. He was like, she go upstairs. She
- 1:30:26didn't turn on to be like, can I have my punishment now? Girl?
- 1:30:30Just go to bed. I was like, I was yelling at Rudy
- 1:30:33out the corner of her eye. I went to bed right. Every child
- 1:30:40when they heard. When they heard Clarity, I was like, you know,
- 1:30:42what where are you going? R got the hell out of die.
- 1:30:45She was like me not to die, Thank you very much. I don't
- 1:30:50care if I'm the baby even have to tell me he is going to bed
- 1:30:55now, you know the old woman nowhere he was like he found that the
- 1:31:00hard way where this is going right? I still need to do I still
- 1:31:06need to find out where that Gordon guartrail shirt is at though. Shirt one
- 1:31:14guy at Dragon con cosplane that Gordon shirt was on the floor. Yes,
- 1:31:21sir, here's the here's the question. Was it tucked into his socks?
- 1:31:29It probably is. He will never he would neither confer nor did not.
- 1:31:35Every dragon con he's got that. I'm like, damn it, Sherman,
- 1:31:40He's like, he's almost like it's like a costume. I've been summoned once
- 1:31:45again. It was definitely one of them things. Uh, cinematics, Assin,
- 1:31:49what do you think about those three Cosby Cosby, Parenthood and Fresh Press.
- 1:31:55I mean, Denise was fine, but no debate, no debate,
- 1:32:00no debate, baked steal is Chris the fresh Prince for show? You know,
- 1:32:08as a fellow will in this world, I was always waiting for me
- 1:32:13to be called up by my rich relatives, free me from this poverty stricken
- 1:32:19life. But it just never really happened. My on screen brethren dream had
- 1:32:29gold and blue silks. Yep, yep, yep. Oh my god.
- 1:32:34Yeah, i'mfortunate. It was hilarious. Eyes have not laughed at hard because
- 1:32:39look on his face when she brought out that shirt. I can agree,
- 1:32:42I can recreate it talking to but that's how I know it was up.
- 1:32:47It was all right, so right? Uh but see I was the same
- 1:32:57way I'm like, you spend ninety dollars on his shirt. Even by today's
- 1:33:02standards, that's wild. It looks like a knockoff shirt from Amigos. I'm
- 1:33:11just saying, oh, lady Mandelora. Out of those three shows, all
- 1:33:20right, Cosby Show was definitely the show that the family gathered. We all
- 1:33:25collectively gathered around at what time was it Thursday? I think it was a
- 1:33:31Thursday or something like that, and yeah, we have family time and this
- 1:33:39this is what we were supposed to be, and this is who we're going
- 1:33:42to attempt to be. Don't funk around and find out let me see.
- 1:33:47And Clarin got ship on me, because if you can't get to that phone
- 1:33:50fast enough, there's not going to be a different World spin off for you,
- 1:33:57baby. I will will say it was damn near ingenius for Cliff to
- 1:34:03cut the middle of the cake out and stuff with paper town and cover back
- 1:34:06up with chocolate that was white and genius. I was just like, if
- 1:34:13you're gonna go mm hmm uh oh man far I mentioned Fresh Prince, Parenthood
- 1:34:23and Cosby Show a lot of those three. What's the takeaways? It's gonna
- 1:34:30be Fresh Prince for me, just because growing up. I don't know if
- 1:34:34anybody watched when they said, what was it Nicolain had nogging and then it
- 1:34:39would turn into the Yeah, they would always have fresh prints on, like
- 1:34:44right at the start of it. Yeah. So growing up at the time,
- 1:34:48there was two shows that really related to at the time was Everybody Hits
- 1:34:51Chris, Everybody's Chris and Fresh Prince because at the time my cousin was living
- 1:35:00with us, so he was like our Will and I was like his Carlton.
- 1:35:04My sister was basically like my sister was like his Hillery. But at
- 1:35:11the same time, I was also like black going to it like ninety percent
- 1:35:14white middle school, so I kind of related to what Will and Carlton and
- 1:35:17Chris were dealing with, and I kind of that was one of my comfort
- 1:35:21shows to come to every day after school. And then it kind of I
- 1:35:27don't feel dad saying some black history, like growing up, the show kind
- 1:35:30of like transcends race. But then you get older and realized, oh,
- 1:35:33this is a story about a rich black family looking out for their less fortunate
- 1:35:39family member. With the house so big, all the aunties and uncles can
- 1:35:43come over and they had room for everyone, which is like, but when
- 1:35:45all here, but when all the aunties and uncles came over, it was
- 1:35:49black to be black. I loved. I personally loved the DVA episodes and
- 1:35:58of course are very on. Jennifer Lewis was was one of the systems.
- 1:36:04Mum hm and who is it? I'm Janie was the one who had the
- 1:36:10white husband. It was aut Janice who had the white but but he he
- 1:36:15he. That was so yeah, it was. It was just that I'm
- 1:36:28just like yo, like and they was about the culture. Uncle Phil was
- 1:36:32about the culture, and Vid was about the coach. And you've seen that
- 1:36:34in in one of those episodes where they had one of their old friends from
- 1:36:38the Black Panther Party shoulders up and I'm like, yo, y'all there mm
- 1:36:43hmmm when she called him by his revolutionary name and I'm like, oh,
- 1:36:47yeah, you you was in the trench? Is my guy? Very much
- 1:36:53the stage of being every character on the show. Because as a kid,
- 1:36:57I stood, I didn't I was Carlton. As a kid, I didn't
- 1:36:59understand the whole getting pulled over episode. And then I got older, I
- 1:37:02was like, we will just we will throws himself on the car. I
- 1:37:05was like Okay, Now as an adult, I'm like, now, I
- 1:37:08get it. Now that this is happening like six times this month, I
- 1:37:12get it. Jesus, oh my God. Maybe for me it was The
- 1:37:19Cosby Show, simply because growing up I was a huge fan of Bill Cosby's
- 1:37:25stand up, all of his I listened to his LPs. I memorized just
- 1:37:30about every singles. Uh that he has everyone, every last one of them,
- 1:37:35and I loved all of them. So to see him come to life
- 1:37:39and just do that, that was a family that you could relate to.
- 1:37:43I know I could on a lot of levels. I felt like the old
- 1:37:47because I was surrounded by sisters and it just got horrible at times. I
- 1:37:58said, when I said the oldest four and I'm the only boy. Man,
- 1:38:01the odds were stacked against anyway. Man, I'm telling you, you
- 1:38:08ever get beat by Barbie is not I want to remember them. Legs hurt
- 1:38:18them, knees were brutal. But that's what I resonated with the most,
- 1:38:23because when you sat down you watched his family and everything that Bill created.
- 1:38:29It was a beautiful thing. It was something that we all wanted to see,
- 1:38:31and I looked forward to it because Let's face it, that's a family
- 1:38:35we all wanted to have. It's true. It is true, Lamy.
- 1:38:44I have fond memories of rushing home from dance school to get to Cosmy show.
- 1:38:49Uh so that's one thing. But I will say fresh prints I felt
- 1:38:57like too far, too far in the sense. That's why I was Carlson.
- 1:39:02For me. Carlton represented the you're the black kid. But and so
- 1:39:09that's why I definitely bonded. Would show you like, we're not gonna take
- 1:39:13show your black cart crying. That's when y'all even said with A and and
- 1:39:25and Brandy about Brandy liking Brittany. I was that kid. I liked a
- 1:39:30whole bunch of music, you know what I'm saying. So, like,
- 1:39:33you know, and I would sit there and dance crazy or dance cool or
- 1:39:36whatever. And so like especially when Carlton, when I seen him in the
- 1:39:41Carlton that was my things. I'm just like, yeah, you you got
- 1:39:45this vibe that you just didn't give a ship. You was who you was,
- 1:39:48and people would be like, Oh, you're cool, or people would
- 1:39:53be like, oh, you don't feel black to me. So I always
- 1:39:57sometimes and what he's like, I'm crying, I'm Jones playing in the head
- 1:40:05with and I'm glad she said that because I'm glad she said, I'm glad
- 1:40:10you said that because there's like the one episode where they're pledging, right and
- 1:40:15they're like tearing in the car. We Will was like, well, it
- 1:40:19was like pretty Will was pretty much like, look, if anybody gonna do
- 1:40:24it, it's gonna be me, but I'm not gonna allow nobody else come
- 1:40:28down on it, you know. And that's just what it was. And
- 1:40:30I'm like there was some really standout episodes. One where they like said when
- 1:40:36they got pulled over and and and I'm Viva and Uncle Field had to come
- 1:40:41down to that jail and he ripped into the ass. When Will got you
- 1:40:51having the gun, give me the gunment, Like the acting was so powerful.
- 1:41:00The episode when Ben Breen was there as his father. Yeah, if
- 1:41:05you did not shed a tear, you are not now. You can still
- 1:41:12shed tears right now right now everyone. And Lebron James because when he when
- 1:41:18he left and he's like, why don't you want me? I'm like,
- 1:41:20right, the fact that it was like like he was he gave him.
- 1:41:29He says, why don't he want me to. I was like, I
- 1:41:30was, I don't need him, I don't need this, I don't need
- 1:41:34that. Why don't he want me? And I was like, oh no,
- 1:41:38my heart. Even then, young you mixed very fresh marian necessary balance
- 1:41:45between blurs. Every Carlton needs a Will and vice versa. This is true.
- 1:41:49This is true. They used to rag on each other, but boy
- 1:41:53if they went if they didn't go to bat for each other, not with
- 1:41:57my cousin that part lady man little or when they when he said like,
- 1:42:00you're not my cousin, will you're my brother, I'm like, and we've
- 1:42:04come full circle. He could dance one more time. Carlton Jones track just
- 1:42:16realized realizing Uncle Phil is a pool shark is always do You'll remember the episode
- 1:42:23when Carlton just freaked out he ran through every set. How do you have
- 1:42:38the ability to basically paddle yourself across? I'm using your feet for good on
- 1:42:48myself, laughing because here he comes. They broke They broke the fourth wall
- 1:42:55so much, just none that they're just like, we're just gonna break all
- 1:42:59the rules, like we don't care that one just said fuck it, Why
- 1:43:03why are we even trying to respect you let him go. You could be
- 1:43:06the care on that s because that care has been shaken from me. Laughing
- 1:43:10that hard, Like this is going from set to set right now. Where
- 1:43:15they had John Witherspoon and they left him in the woods and he's still a
- 1:43:20character. Where's that boy? Wil John was Neil Lung's father, right,
- 1:43:31Yeah, John Amos was Neilong's father. Yeah. Yeah, John Witherspood was
- 1:43:41Summer's dad. Yeah, there we go. Yeah, they had some they
- 1:43:45had everybody was on that show. Mm hmmm. Queen Latifa was on the
- 1:43:50show. Oprah, Oprah was on the show. I'm like, I'm like
- 1:44:00between Will and Carlton, Carlton, y'all had some beautiful women showing up for
- 1:44:04y'all. You know. The Pam Greer episode was something crazy because like even
- 1:44:11Uncle Pheel was like, I can't get too bad at that was that.
- 1:44:16That was an episode where Uncle Phil was looking and you just saw Vivian's eyes
- 1:44:20look at him. He snapped right back to attention. That was his old
- 1:44:26girlfriend who was like waiting then my son, he was like what what that
- 1:44:31was? Like? We had I kind of liked the whole Will Lisa dynamic
- 1:44:34and then we made them step siblings and never talked to her again. Right,
- 1:44:40that was odd Trevor. Trevor dying as he's proposing. I was like,
- 1:44:51maybe there's just like an uncut version of the DVD they won't show.
- 1:44:57I didn't realize they just was doing sound effects. So here here's another one,
- 1:45:06a different world. Here we go. Get my chair ready. This
- 1:45:15is the series that has made every person in the blurred community want to go
- 1:45:20to college mm hmmm, and preferably at HBCU because they wanted to meet Freddy.
- 1:45:30I was, I was, I wanted to meet Freddy, but I
- 1:45:31was more akin to to Kimberly facts. Look next, if that tour comes
- 1:45:43your way, you know what to do? Uh call me and talking about
- 1:45:47were going. Whoever runs the Hilm and Files didn't get an invite, but
- 1:45:53they made it in the building. I'm like, I thought that was crazy.
- 1:45:58I'm like, yo, the one that's what you need to go grant.
- 1:46:00But yeah, but yeah, that's that. That show actually stood out
- 1:46:04for me on so many levels. Mm hmm. Yeah yeah yeah, I
- 1:46:13mean, you're not wrong, he's not He's not wrong. Yeah, the
- 1:46:20damage I'm doing One of these days, it's it's it is. I mean,
- 1:46:25it's one of those shows that just really stood out and they tackled a
- 1:46:30lot. They tackled a lot of topics. That's when we found out King
- 1:46:32was racist. Oh oh, that was what a scene that was. You
- 1:46:38found out when you found out Superman wasn't playing a role, he was playing
- 1:46:41himself. You know what it was? I had one year of having black
- 1:46:47roommates and we just ran through like every black supploitation or black thing we grew
- 1:46:53up with. So just comparing between Orlando, Tampa, and Chicago and that
- 1:46:58was just our room for like a good eight months. Mm hmmm. Like
- 1:47:03I had never seen the World. I've never seen the Wood or Juice before
- 1:47:09college. Okay, well, no judgment, You're not missing anything. Yeah,
- 1:47:14I think different world really, but no, I just said, you
- 1:47:18know what I love about it is a different world actually contributed to a lot
- 1:47:26of cinematic features that focused on HBCUs and the fact that after the first season
- 1:47:32of A Different World, HBCUs applications and acceptances double. The first they talk
- 1:47:40about they talk about then to this day the impact that that show had on
- 1:47:45the black community. Like like m hm, when you when you go ahead
- 1:47:53Oh no, No, I was just gonna say, like I went to
- 1:47:55Spilman and though like it's I actually I feel the same way about a different
- 1:48:00world like I feel about the other ones. But it is a very huge
- 1:48:04look right personally, I'm sorry. I can't let you think that. You
- 1:48:11know, I'm not a person, Okay, but I will say, like
- 1:48:15it's impact in the auc, which is why it should. I completely understand
- 1:48:18where the're going there first, at least like it's impacted on Spellman, like
- 1:48:24I remember going there and like at Orientation, Oh my god, a different
- 1:48:28world. Oh my goodness, like have you seen it? They want to
- 1:48:30talk about it, all this stuff, you know, they want to take
- 1:48:31the pictures in front of the and it's like it really did impact a lot
- 1:48:36of people that, oh I wanted to live that life for a lot of
- 1:48:41people that did go there, even in the late twenty tens or the mid
- 1:48:45twenty ten. So it's just like it obviously it's impact trend has like been
- 1:48:51generational because came out yeah yeah, over twenty years ago. So it's like
- 1:49:00the impact is there and I don't think it's ever going to fade away,
- 1:49:05which is why I also think they're there right now. M hmm. Lord
- 1:49:09Striker on ig He says the season five of Dwayne Wayne Versus Dan King was
- 1:49:14pivotal to our true perception even to this day. Yep at his dang ding,
- 1:49:21like you look at that now, you're just like actually between him and
- 1:49:28between him and the cop. The cop was a surprised. Oh man.
- 1:49:30He sat there and said, oh, you just think you just think I'm
- 1:49:32just you just think I'm just some some racist honky. Don't You don't even
- 1:49:36think about the fact that I'm Marshal Martin Luther King right beside him that day,
- 1:49:41But you want to look at me and judge him, and yet you
- 1:49:43think I'm just as bad as he is. I was like, that's a
- 1:49:45different Okay, look it really they really went there when when it comes to
- 1:49:51race, when it comes to HIV in age, when it comes right,
- 1:49:57it was hot like sexual assault, yeah, man, that was intense,
- 1:50:04like the uh sexual as domestic violence. Yeah, they hit the mark,
- 1:50:14even the Rodney King in the outbreak that had And I'm just like, Yo,
- 1:50:21this show is getting ready to come back, and that's how they tackled
- 1:50:26it. Man. I'm like, yo, that you have a lot with
- 1:50:30me. Resonated a lot with me as well, because it's part of the
- 1:50:34reason why I only applied to hbc Well, I applied to some Sunny Qunity
- 1:50:40schools because I lived in New York, and then most of my applications outside
- 1:50:44of that were all for HBCUs. I got accepted to all of them,
- 1:50:47but I wanted to go to HBCU and shut up my mom. My mom.
- 1:50:59She didn't understan in the concept of having historically black schools because she wasn't
- 1:51:03born here, didn't get it. She didn't get it. That kind of
- 1:51:10helped with, you know, showing her, like, you know what these
- 1:51:13school things are like. But she was like, you're not going there to
- 1:51:15party? Are you going there to do his party? I mean but yeah,
- 1:51:23between that and school days, I mean right, yeah, all you're
- 1:51:27going to do is your books don't get higher learning. Dwayne is the reason
- 1:51:34why Loivia Pope's that turned out the way. I never put that together.
- 1:51:41But I can't say Kadegen was the villain, but then again, he did
- 1:51:47pull Alicia Keys get out of Whitney. Sometimes I mean, you go,
- 1:51:56you go, I mean, you gotta have a you gotta have a lot
- 1:51:59of riz to go to a woman's wedding, confessing your love. As you
- 1:52:02get pushed up, you get thrown out, and to be like yes,
- 1:52:08yes, although my house did erupt in applause, like we were like,
- 1:52:13finally, let's get this together. I look back now, you look back
- 1:52:16now you're be like, there's a bit toxic. It's like that jagged eggs.
- 1:52:21It's like that jagged egge. So let's get married. It sounds nice
- 1:52:25at first, when you think about it, it's really fucked up. Right,
- 1:52:30let's get married. I'm bored. Let's get married. Okay, it's
- 1:52:35something with Martin with the stop yeah, full stop for me, what happened
- 1:52:50now? Right? So uh And I'm I'm gonna jump ahead because this one's
- 1:52:59already making a lot of impact. Yes, sir abbit, elementary, my
- 1:53:08spirit animal, I ain't gonna shade you every time he does that look and
- 1:53:14I'm like, yeah, I've done that a lot. You just look off
- 1:53:19into the imaginary camera when stuff happens. Just I looked in said things.
- 1:53:24My wife is like, who are you talking to us? It ain't no
- 1:53:27audience there. But don't worry. The sentiment is Claire, somebody gets it.
- 1:53:36But what it actually is cool about ab elementary is you are kind of
- 1:53:41shining a light on the educators. Quinn Brunson is really doing something that she
- 1:53:45has already been told by educators, like thank you for actually showing us in
- 1:53:50a positive light and what we deal with. Go ahead, and you got
- 1:53:55some of your heart saying, man, I just agree with you. I
- 1:53:59watched No I think last week's episode where a kid was caught smoking and the
- 1:54:06dialogue about like is this really suspension world or whatever? Because the way that
- 1:54:14it was like he just didn't realize the impact of it, you know,
- 1:54:17And we have these conversations all the time, you know, or like I'm
- 1:54:24in a charter, but I also was in a public school that whole dynamic
- 1:54:28last season. I've lived both of those things, you know, Like he
- 1:54:32really has captured and especially from the black like experience of being an educator,
- 1:54:41she is captured a lightning in a bottle. It is. It is so
- 1:54:45great to see in this sentiment that Nicks puts up is true. We feel
- 1:54:50the same way, like watching her come from he Got money to yeah,
- 1:54:58like I've seen the video the video last week. I shared it in the
- 1:55:00group chat and they was showing her like old old video when she was merely
- 1:55:03rocking through all the different continents and I'm like, so far and I love
- 1:55:09it, but true to herself and that, and so that's why I can
- 1:55:15appre. I'm like, but yeah, seeing the show like that, that
- 1:55:18is like part document, mockumentary, part comedy, part series. It's just
- 1:55:23like, yeah, I liked this, and and you're being true to it,
- 1:55:29and you're doing it from you You're from Philly. You're doing it from
- 1:55:31Philly, so you know you didn't walk away from it. And it's like
- 1:55:35somebody actually, she said, somebody actually said you know what you need on
- 1:55:39that show? And they said they told her. I think they said like
- 1:55:42a gardener or something like, or a male man or something. That's what
- 1:55:45she was like. She thought about it, like, we do need a
- 1:55:46male man. Somebody's been saying they need to get Vincent Martella back so they
- 1:55:53can have the Chris and Greg dynamic back from Yeah, he sut me down
- 1:55:59to he said, give him a character, he will play it, just
- 1:56:01to be back on screen with Thailand. All of a sudden, they got
- 1:56:05they got that weird moment of getting a mix. I didn't know there was
- 1:56:12the whole thing about him, and people thought him and Orlando Jones could be
- 1:56:15an actual like TV dad son that oh that jeness those jeans is strong.
- 1:56:20Yeah. Interviewing Orlando Jones years ago, great job said that I didn't know
- 1:56:30about the whole thing until somebody's wow quince to actually put this in the script
- 1:56:33mm hmm. And then apparently I guess she pissed off some people when it
- 1:56:38came to the charter school stuff. It was on her head for like that
- 1:56:41entire season, and they just mad because it's realistic. Educator, it is
- 1:56:50realistic everything speak on it. Yeah, yeah, you're a charter right now.
- 1:57:00Yeah, but I've done both. I started my career and public school
- 1:57:06for a while and I'm in charge. But I'm also a charter that's not
- 1:57:10taken over by a company, right, So, Like, I do know
- 1:57:13that there are company run charters and that is real, but I also know
- 1:57:18why you're there. You're still there, keep going No, that's okay,
- 1:57:39I mean, like listen, I like I was just saying, like I
- 1:57:42understand the argument. I'm not saying that they're wrong in what is being said,
- 1:57:45but I am saying that there are three sides to that because there are
- 1:57:49charter schools that are not run by companies that don't do the ship that that
- 1:57:54is being portrayed. But there charting more. I agree with that we are
- 1:58:05stream yard needs the sense you mean, we are pushing it to the in
- 1:58:14typical in typical fashion, they definitely how to find our spaces when they're mad
- 1:58:19about ship. Because they really really tried to bully this girl into writing a
- 1:58:25school shooting episode. I am not And the fact that she said there and
- 1:58:30stood up to them, that's what I love about that. She's like,
- 1:58:31I'm going to write that in the show. Yeah, like that does not
- 1:58:36happen here. You want school shootings, go to law and order? Right
- 1:58:44do? We got to go catch the Lucy Man. Last episode we just
- 1:58:47yea these kids cigarette. That's the biggest shoot. It's like it's like twelve
- 1:58:57remain. We solved the crime, but like there's somebody's got murdered. If
- 1:59:00we don't, it's still like the problem is still existing. Here's another one
- 1:59:05half and half. I saw that one. I saw that was a great
- 1:59:14deal in syndication, but it didn't really between Essence Atkins and the other one.
- 1:59:18I was like, Rachel, Rachel Truechel that's her name, Rachel.
- 1:59:24True, That's that's when I knew I love chocolate. That that was that's
- 1:59:29when you love chocolate. I was to be there. That's all I gotta
- 1:59:34say. Uh some other unsung ones. Yeah, Frank was a villain.
- 1:59:44Frank. Frank was delusional. Frank, especially when when Rachel when the nephew
- 1:59:53comes moving and you feel out ain't a nephew, he's the son. Clocked
- 1:59:59in on that. But so when then you bought your stunn on and I'm
- 2:00:00just like, ma'am, like, did you you che talking up? Did
- 2:00:05you did you do Auntie Sheryl round dirty? You know? You know who?
- 2:00:12The real going in that show was super rude producer y J. Because
- 2:00:15he gave us Kim goddamn god damn Kardashian. Actually, I think he did
- 2:00:23that during the one on one era, which was after that show, when
- 2:00:26he became d MAC. It was the pimp. Yeah, the way he
- 2:00:30was, that's all I got to say. He was just Frank was always
- 2:00:36only got one wish. Frank was always trying to stop Brandy from going somewhere
- 2:00:41from when we should going somewhere, going out anywhere, doing anything. I'm
- 2:00:44like, dude, you have got to let it go. Who knew a
- 2:00:48siml fact he was harboring a secret but taking out his oldest daughter. Yeah,
- 2:00:53because when that hit the phrase, I'm like, frank all American.
- 2:01:00Wow. A lot of a lot of these Netflix shows it it's terrible remixes
- 2:01:03because like, what the fuck was dear white people? That's fair point point.
- 2:01:12First two seasons was great, and then it was just like this is
- 2:01:14getting too much. Well yeah, they ruined it, yeah, like they
- 2:01:17always do in their total dicks worse than the whites by the way. Yeah,
- 2:01:23and then they made season four musical, which was so Yeah, it
- 2:01:29was very well. I like to try to finish things. I didn't watch
- 2:01:35season four until November of last year, and it came out way. I
- 2:01:41remember. I wanted to finish it because I had time. I was house
- 2:01:43sitting and I was like, you know what, I got me try to
- 2:01:45get Instagram video from her with a very loud what the fuck is there?
- 2:01:49No said to Fari. I was talking to the Fari. I was like,
- 2:01:55I literally cannot believe they did this. Ship one of the things where
- 2:01:59it's just like it was good when it started and now you're just here to
- 2:02:01watch you know you're gonna crash and burn. You just want to see how
- 2:02:03rough the landing is gonna be. Like, that's just what they do when
- 2:02:08they didn't decide, Oh we want to make four seasons, but we don't
- 2:02:13know what the we're gonna do with the last. When you don't have it
- 2:02:17back then, when you don't have an ending, you just once you made
- 2:02:23it to the musical season. That's pretty much the curtain right there. It's
- 2:02:31yeah, Hamilton phase ladies and gentlemen. It's a healthy black relationship with these
- 2:02:40shows because it's like unless unless you have like these other songs on like in
- 2:02:46the house. Oh yeah, it was a low key fresh Prince without basically
- 2:02:55this you saw more older Carson, but wasn't an episode. And then he
- 2:03:00came back as a different character. He did, he did I'm gona skip
- 2:03:04one because I'm gonna come back to it. But smart guy, underrated show.
- 2:03:12It was positive, very positive look at boys in the hood. It
- 2:03:19was wild seeing him back that I'm just like nade it out. So thanks
- 2:03:27for that. Here's another one, sister, sister. Also, I blame
- 2:03:31I don't blame you Roger for never going home. I don't blame you for
- 2:03:34always knock him on the door. That one. It's weird seeing team tim
- 2:03:39Reid as a dad and knocking the Richard prior show. I have to kind
- 2:03:42of separate that. That was another one I liked. Look with when Roger
- 2:03:49had his moment and he he glew up. It was just like, oh,
- 2:03:57I know it's late now, ladies became I x RNDA back is a
- 2:04:05dude. One season was that like a joke or a gag. I missed.

- 2:11:33yeah another one. Family matters. Family matters is triggered, triggered. They
- 2:11:41had some serious moments because I swear to guy Eddie not wanting to join the
- 2:11:46gang and come home beat the ship. Hell up, God, I'm like,
- 2:11:50dude, or when he or when you know Eddie never caught a break,
- 2:11:54you gotta he never really did catch a break. Think about he got

- 2:12:01stereo system, it was stolen, got pulled over lost the like no love
- 2:12:13Eddie No. Then he finally decides, I'm going to be a cop.
- 2:12:16Yeah, because you really ain't got other options. And right, my guy,
- 2:12:20I want to be a cop. It was stolen right on. Yeah,
- 2:12:28makes you know what it is because look, Myra was down. Myra
- 2:12:33was down. She didn't play about Steve lit obsessive, but she didn't play
- 2:12:43I love Laura Jel every time Myra came around with Steve, Yeah Stett.
- 2:12:52Listen, Family Matters was so triggering for little skinny Glass just wearing black boys
- 2:13:01all across this country. I promised you seventy eight percent of me being bullied
- 2:13:07growing up was because of Steve Rkle. I'm dislike Julia White so intensely growing
- 2:13:15up personal. I ain't like him. I ain't like son. How about
- 2:13:24gang banging on the blue head? Okay, but that's my thing. I
- 2:13:26got caught, you know what it was. But like the stuff I got
- 2:13:28made fun of growing up, I never registered his bullying because they never explained
- 2:13:31what they were talking about, so I would get caught. I got called.
- 2:13:35I was fifteen now. Once was the words Family Matters Ever told me
- 2:13:39like no one wanted the show. They would just keep saying, ercle Jalia
- 2:13:43White and Stefan. I'm like, I don't know who any of those three
- 2:13:46people are, like, oh, Julia White, like Nigga. I guess
- 2:13:52I don't. So in this case, ignorance was bliss right. You got
- 2:13:56you got off, You got off lucky because the rest of us it was
- 2:13:58either you know, you either had hands or your roast game had to be
- 2:14:01high. I never forget. I never forgave him for that. Damn.
- 2:14:07I never forgave him for that damn arkle dance. I swear to God,
- 2:14:11oh my God, first out of my head, and you bring it back.
- 2:14:15In fact, the fact that he does the dance once and then everybody
- 2:14:20knows. I'm like, yo, wait, stop, hold on, just
- 2:14:24like dealing with this kid, and then all of a sudden he busts out
- 2:14:26of dance and y'all just own, okay whatever to be on. Beat your
- 2:14:33own beat to the kle dance. A U A A roof fool that was
- 2:14:43a party, that was a party, roof party. When I was a
- 2:14:48kid, I got a lot of comments that I looked like Laura and it
- 2:14:54drove me nuts. It did. Don't look away. I see what you're
- 2:15:01doing over there when I was when I was about when I was about fourteen,
- 2:15:11I used to get it a lot. I also didn't wear glasses back
- 2:15:15then. Man. The uh, the fact that was what was the mom's
- 2:15:28name, I can't remember mom's name. But the fact that the carriot here
- 2:15:31here, fact that her sister's restaurant caught fire, and the way she ran,
- 2:15:37I'm like, the dramatics are immaculate. I guess she's she's doing a
- 2:15:43slight jog through through the police in the fire department. No one's stopping her
- 2:15:50right frisk walk through anything else, you know, and she's looking for she's
- 2:15:56looking for laws. She's looking like, boy, you sweated that one out,
- 2:16:01didn't you hear you? I said, when Steve came up with that,
- 2:16:05uh was that trans transformation chamber? And yet somehow this is why I
- 2:16:11said Steve should be on a watch list. That's when we started going left.
- 2:16:16I'm like, yo, they're just doing wild. No. The fact
- 2:16:20that he the fact that this this geek had access to things like why have
- 2:16:26there not been a watch lest he been put on? How do you have
- 2:16:30hair from from celebrities you shouldn't be having, or explosives that you shouldn't be
- 2:16:35having a silk press as like to be to be Bruce Lee, like,
- 2:16:39I don't how and fight the Green Ranger. You got to fight Jason David
- 2:16:48Frank As I keep telling you when you look at that, and as as
- 2:16:54a kid, you're looking at that, you were like that ain't real?
- 2:16:58Like why because that's the Green Ranger I got, I got one, I
- 2:17:01got one worse for you know, this man for five days and not rock
- 2:17:05the Power Ranges just to get dropped by a Chuck Norris kid. Oh my
- 2:17:11god, before I gotta sit through that show eventually at some point. Yeah,
- 2:17:20it's you know when you have when you have the youngest sister go upstairs
- 2:17:22to never be seen again. I just I was just thinking about it came
- 2:17:30we saw her years later, Yeah we did. I don't know. That's
- 2:17:35very very saucy, indeed. Brown. Yeah, she she's uh, she's
- 2:17:39somewhere. She's uh yeah, she's actually actually on I G. I do
- 2:17:43follow her. She's not she's not there anything, but she's on the I
- 2:17:48G. Now. So okay, lovely Steve who lived alone. I don't
- 2:17:54care anybody says Steve had a house by himself. He lived alone. Had
- 2:17:58his parents left him to go to Russia. Russia, no problem, like
- 2:18:09they had so much stuff. I don't know. Just you're just seeing his
- 2:18:15cousin, that's it. And my cousin was him, That's honest. The
- 2:18:18more the more you think about thinking about Steve Burkell, the more that theory
- 2:18:22just like damn, maybe that theory about Carl istrue about it. It's his
- 2:18:31night mercenario. So this is the theory about Carl Winswill because the character,
- 2:18:37the actor Carl Winswell, he seems to always play a cop. He played
- 2:18:39the cop and die Hard, he played the cop. Another Perfect Strangers,
- 2:18:46he was a cop, because that's actually his Carl Winslow and Perfect Strangers.
- 2:18:50But but there the the theory is that it was such a traumatic moment out
- 2:18:54in l A and then it was somewhere else where it was another show or
- 2:18:58movie he played cop that he ended up just moving to Chicago, changing his
- 2:19:03name and everything else. And then he meets Steve Erkele. Well, Steve
- 2:19:07Erkele has cased so much chaos in his life that they're saying that really,
- 2:19:13Carl Winslow is not the happily it's not the happy family man, you don't
- 2:19:16even be Carl Winslow is in a fucking coma and is the jarring part of
- 2:19:22it. It's Steve Rkle. It's like it keeps trying to wake him up.
- 2:19:28It's such a dark ass theory. Because me and Spartan seeing this and
- 2:19:33then somebody actually talked about it, it was like, no, this is
- 2:19:35a theory, and I'm like, he really did play Cops and a lot
- 2:19:39of stuff he was in. Yeah, and now he has a school named
- 2:19:41after him and invincible. The whole principle, Well, that's that's the crazy
- 2:19:50part. Like Duran family matters, you never see any of Erkele's family members
- 2:19:56Talksbot all the time. You never see them. So it's just like,
- 2:20:01God, damn, they might have him, they might have point about him.
- 2:20:03I mean you Obama maybe wasn't wasn't unsubd before criminal minds the whole theory
- 2:20:15that Will there's the theory that Will is actually dead in Fresh Prince. Yeah,
- 2:20:18I heard that one too, That one to like he like, he
- 2:20:22never made it out of Philly basically, so he never made it. He
- 2:20:30never made it out the street fight. He basically is working through all his
- 2:20:33real life problems with his guardian angels, every family member, and every episode
- 2:20:39is the amount of times he visits his great which is why his dad is
- 2:20:41only there once. Yeah, that's not making any better. And yet he's
- 2:20:48still he's still to throw that theory out. Dear God, people please.
- 2:20:56When they did, he's like, that's not real, like it's creative,
- 2:20:58but no, that's up. But people ran with that for a long time.
- 2:21:01And like at the end of the show, when the house is empty
- 2:21:03and the lights off, he's finally moving on. He's accepted and accepted.
- 2:21:13Oh you should you should see the Cartoon Network theories is way worse. Okay,
- 2:21:26Chris, can we stop? And I want to so before we wrap
- 2:21:33it up, wrap it up, Before we wrap it up, we have
- 2:21:37one because we're definitely gonna revisit this because there are so many black scounts.
- 2:21:41Uh, we didn't even we barely covered like half in Living Living Single Watch
- 2:21:50Next. You cannot get better than this show. Here the name Kyle Arker,
- 2:22:00I was I'm not gonna lie my name like Kyle Barker. I'm like,
- 2:22:03I just need the voice that goes along with it, Kyle DC.
- 2:22:09That was actually pretty good. So this is a show bar None stands out
- 2:22:18as probably one of my favorite m HM shows, Like It came on after
- 2:22:24Martin. You didn't leave the couch. Nope, you didn't leave the couch.
- 2:22:28Martin came on at eight. Living Single came on at a thirty.
- 2:22:31You didn't leave the couch. Not Actually, you didn't leave the couch at
- 2:22:33all, because Martin at eight Living Single at eight thirty New York Undercover at
- 2:22:39nine you that counching block. You wasn't leaving the couch till about ten o'clock.

- 2:23:00No lady? Fox News. Fox in the nineties was pretty too be
- 2:23:03No way Mark, you don't google the rug Rats theory. Their standard.
- 2:23:22Yes, the standard was Living Single because it was you had several successful black
- 2:23:31people living in New York living lives and just growing relationships. And I'll be
- 2:23:37damned if it didn't work. And it was perfect, especially the fact that
- 2:23:43you saw successful lawyer, successful business attorneys. You saw a handy man that
- 2:23:46was full of knowledge. I was cool. With that and the one chick
- 2:23:50that didn't have her ship together but was trying to fake it until she did
- 2:23:56Circles. Regime Regime knew her way in some circles having thirty So yeah,
- 2:24:07like these type of shows like that. So when you hear about that other
- 2:24:11show, thank you man. Yeah, pretty much all blasphemy. You WoT
- 2:24:26exist? I can. I can watch those shows. Is a show like
- 2:24:31like living Single. I can consistently watch and still laugh at and still really

- 2:24:41there. Yeah, Scooter, Yeah, and he almost did an age and
- 2:24:46that was like twenty years gape. That's why when I seen when I that's

- 2:24:52Chris Williams. But at the same time that Scooter right between him and Heavy
- 2:24:58dating uh day Regina at the same time. That was interesting. So yeah,
- 2:25:03yeah, yeah, Scooter was after Cadegia. Yeah, Heavy D was
- 2:25:09after Region Heavy after Regime Well Heavy he was just like she was like at
- 2:25:15the same Regime was like that ain't my type, but yo, my man
