  Speaker 1: you know, it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and I
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: need all of the ladies to go and get their mammograms.
• 0:16

  Speaker 1: your status. If you want some more information, you can
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: go to breastcancersociety.org. Now let's get into all the ignorant shit, y'all.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: We are getting into it with a very special guest
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: today that you will know because I think he's all
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: over the internet. We're going to get into some ignorant
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: takes with Deontay Kyle up first in This Is America.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: We are talking about Katie Zachariah, who has been fired

  Speaker 1: as the White House press secretary with the quickest firing.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: You're fired.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: In the country? No, we got some other people we

  Speaker 1: Then, of course, y'all, we are talking the Paris riots
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: and more across the world that are drawing attention and critique.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Y'all know this past weekend we had the No Kings
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: protest that took place all over the country. And people
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: are comparing the way protests happen in France and in
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: other countries. compared to BLM and protests here in America.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: And of course, we can't have these conversations without color. Then,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: and this is not a sports podcast, former NBA star
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Amari Stoudemire is officially stepping into a new career in
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: law enforcement. And the response tends to be different than
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Shaq receiving his honorary doctrine from the FBI. What are
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the true hypocrisies of our thoughts of Black Americans in uniform?
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: And is it good for community or not? Then hopefully
• 1:45

• 2:06
  Speaker 1: And we're talking about. The culture we built from limited resources,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: transforming creativity into economic opportunity, and if a system built
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: around private profit can also produce collective liberation.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: We are getting into all the things.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a little interesting.

  Speaker 1: I know, but this is crazy that, like... I get
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: ganged up on all the time.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Like, whoa! Not in this climate. This is selective ignorance.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: You gonna call black men gang members?
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Gangbangers?
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Actually, and I won't just because in the state of Florida,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: it may come back and get you.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, dicey. Allegedly. It's tricky.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Let me not call y'all any types of gangs. So,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: we normally like to start off the pod with a
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: quick little ignorant thought or take. Something that happened over
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: the last week. And I wanted to.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: I think hand off my black card for just a
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: little bit because something just happened this past week and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I realized.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: That I might not be that black. You said you realized?
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Okay, hear me out, hear me out, hear me out.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Self-awareness podcast. You know how I.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Told you I went to WNBA All-Star weekend and I
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: realized I wasn't that gay?
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: I feel what you're saying. You feel me?
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: So I get back from our New York trip and
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I only have Two days before I have to go
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: to L.A. And I experienced probably the most torturous thing
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: that could ever happen to a human being. The CIA
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: didn't waterboard me. This isn't what was happening, but it
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: felt what like waterboarding would be. And this is something
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: that I think most black people are able to just
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: live through. And I couldn't. So my battery is dying
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: on my fire detector and the beat.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: That y'all can normally just live through. You know how
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: it is. It's the y'all part. This is what I said.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: I said, ooh, my black card kind of got to.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Go because, like, you know, you watch the videos and
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: you hear a little beep in the background and everybody's
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: just like, ooh, he ignoring the beep in the background.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: I can't ignore the beep.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, my blackness isn't allowing me to ignore
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the beep. I literally feel like I'm being waterboarded by
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the CIA every time I hear that beep. So I
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: have TaskRabbit coming over to change it expeditiously.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: To change the.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Like, I can't live that way.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: See, you doubled down on that cracker shit just now.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: I got task grabbing coming, niggas.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: No, no, no.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on. That's not the white people. I'm
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: just a girl. You thought I was going to get
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: on a ladder? Yeah, for sure. Whenever anyone comes to
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: my house, and D, you're not a man.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: I ain't going to hold you.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: But D even tightened, like, I had a loose screw
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: on my toilet paper thing. I don't really get out
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: the tools.

  Speaker 3: not going to lie, an armoire is very... And look,

• 9:43
  Speaker 1: dog food?
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Like, it was too much. Like, there was dogs at
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: a rooftop.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: Like, I'm already.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Like, what are we doing?
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: We talked about this before.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: Now, if I was to chunk your dog off the
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: rooftop now, what would that be?
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Okay, now, that is doing a little bit much.
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying, just to make an example. Just to
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: show niggas how serious I am.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Well, that is, I think PETA would have something to say.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: PETA got something to say about everything.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, everything.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: There's nosy white people right there.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: So you said you want to decrease the dog population by?
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Like 40%.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: You think it's too many pets?
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: It's too many pets. It's too much. I'm walking in
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: a restaurant. Your dog's sitting there. I don't care about

• 10:25
  Speaker 3: good money.

  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: In the 90s, when you was walking through a parking lot,
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: you hear dogs barking. Then you know, I'm in this bitch.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: I'm in this motherfucker. You know what I mean?
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: I would assume that maybe we can do some deep...
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: If we want to really structure something around dogs, let's put...
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: some shade in the parking lot. So we're not just
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: walking through a straight hot ass concrete structure. Shade the
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: parking lot, crack the window, I'll be back in 45 minutes.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: I'm not mad at that.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: And don't let nobody, and also, nobody gonna break in
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: the car if a dog in it. How about that?
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, that'll definitely work here in Atlanta.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: Now, depending on what type of dog you got. These
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: niggas will steal your dog. Oh yeah, you can't have
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: a Frenchie in the... Yeah, no Frenchie, but leave the

• 11:29
  Speaker 3: It's just there.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not it. It's okay. We're promoting, you know,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: accepting all. Things on the spectrum. Frenchies are definitely on

  Speaker 1: Kind of.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: It is, right? A little bit.

• 11:52
  Speaker 3: Like, they're having a great time. It costs a lot.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: But they don't know no better.
• 11:57

  Speaker 3: It's okay.

  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: All the communal spaces. All the communal spaces. It's bad.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: There's not enough grass in New York.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: Decreased by 60% in New York. 1,000.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Oh, every time I see a big dog in New York,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: I feel bad for the dog. Like, where are you living?
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what you doing?
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Like, I know the humans are already living in small quarters.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Where is the dog at?
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: That's why I'm like, I see a husky in Georgia.
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: Like, bro.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: Take that nigga north.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Take him to Alaska.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah. He's out of bounds. Well, let's get into it, y'all.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: This is America.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: After two days of defending herself on cable news after,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: of course, she was questioned about the ESQ following her
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: name and never actually passing the bar, Katie Zachariah has
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: been fired after she was kind of told to resign.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: She kind of resigned.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: She kind of got fired as the White House press secretary.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: She lasted less than a week on the job.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Thoughts? I'm not going to lie.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: When I saw it, I was just like, okay. A
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: part of me was pissed off because she was actually
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: representation of DEI. A lot of it helped white women
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: get roles like that. And she was in there and
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: couldn't even goddamn read and got a goddamn job.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she was crazy.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Like, the bitch couldn't read and then.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: She read her directions.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: I was just like, oh, wow. You got rid of
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: DEI and then used DEI for your own goddamn place.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Pretty much. Hated it.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Hated her. But clearly she has another job.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Well, her first job was dick riding. That's how she
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: got the job in the first place. I mean, she
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: looks like Ivanka. Yeah.
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: Trump openly wants to fuck his daughter, so.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Allegedly.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's what that was. No, it's not allegedly.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: He said that. He said it?
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: He said, if she wasn't my daughter, I'd be with her.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: And they cheered.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: He has said that.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: Like, every time we talk about.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Trump, I hear even more sick shit that this motherfucker
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: has said.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: And he watching his constituents booty. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: He was a butt watcher. A butt watcher, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: Cheek watcher.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: Oh, he was in a rally describing, I forget what
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: the senator was.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: He was trying to see if he was fit for office. What?
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: He was trying to see if he was fit for office.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: I looked at his shoulders, I looked at.
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: His traps, I looked at his ass, and I said, yeah,
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: that's the guy.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, shit.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: It's a crazy, like, the whole thing, like, you scanning
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: this man. Yeah, the whole package. You want to know
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: everything about that man. At a rally, dude. Yeah, at
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: a rally. I'll be honest.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I wish we had her just a little longer.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: Just for the jokes?
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Just for the jokes, I wish we had her just
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: a little bit longer.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say this. Um.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: Again, nobody does fake jobs and degrees better than blacks.
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: Because a nigga would have had that job for at
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: least two months.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, easily.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: Because Dr. Cheyenne Bryant still, I mean, we're still calling
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: her doc. Still around. We're still calling her doc.
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: Plus, a nigga that's unqualified for a job that they got,
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: they're going to do their best to finagle, finesse, and
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: keep that shit for.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: As long as possible. Why people don't feel like they
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: have to? No, she was clearly unfit for that gig.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: For sure.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: And then... I just seen it as like, all right, man,
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Trump want to fuck her. That's all that is.
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: Oh, no, that's... But he's a funny nigga, too, because
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: of how he fired her. He was like, he came
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: to her and was like... You don't really want to
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: do this, do you? You could be happy somewhere else. Like,
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: he talked to her like he was saving a stripper.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Like, dog.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: How the fuck? Just tell her she fired. You go
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: on TV and tell everybody they fired. Now you got
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: this white heifer over here.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Now you got to kowtow to her.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: He didn't need a celebrity apprentice. Right. And the night
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: after she got fired, she went to go have dinner
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: with J.B. Vance. They smoothed it over, made sure her
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: emotional state was okay. They the toss around boys, ain't they? Oh, 100%. 100%.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: That's a terrible roster to toss around. I think they
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: ordered it, too, that she would reassign. Reassign.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: So, do we know what her role is now?
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: She be a White House dick rider like she was
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: before she got the job.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: She on head duty.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: Y'all say... You said you've gotten fired.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Head of state.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: You said you've gotten fired quicker than she did?
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: What was the job?
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I got fired or I quit
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: or it's a mixture of both. But I was working
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: in this construction shit. And they put me on like
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: that sign, like the sign shit.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: Oh, slow stop.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: And I was like, I was like, how long am
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: I supposed to do this? And it was like, oh yeah,
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: this is like 10 hours.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: I was like. What?
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, wait, you quit.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: I said, I'm stopping with somebody. I was like, I
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: was like, nigga, I'm not doing this for 10 hours.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: He was like, you can leave. I was like, I'll leave.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: I'll be out then. Oh, wow. Yeah, it was like
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: 30 minutes in. Damn. Oh, wow.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: What about, what about.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: Did they pay you for that 30?
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Huh?
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Did they pay you for the 30? Yeah, I think so,
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: but shit. What could it have been?
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: It cost more to print that check out than it was.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: I think the nigga dipped in his pocket like, here,
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: just take a dump, man. That's crazy.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Take a dump, have a date.
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: When I see these niggas, they like to be having fun.
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: I be seeing niggas with their pods on. They probably
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: be listening to Grits and Eggs. I be seeing niggas
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: in there doing the knowledge and sometimes niggas be dancing
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: and shit.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: Those are probably people also on the spectrum.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I can't turn my mind off. Like, I need
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: to be in motion doing shit.
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: Because.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: I'm going to just overthink the position. And that's what
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: I started doing.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Like, yo, I'm really a nigga just going to turn
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: in signs all day.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: What was the quickest job you quit or got fired?
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: My first job was at Baskin Robbins. And the manager,
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: my manager was the son of the owner. And a
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: nigga came to me one day. This is probably like 19.
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: I don't even think I had a driver's license yet.
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: This is probably like 95, some shit. The nigga came
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: to me one day and was like, I don't know
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: if this is going to work out. you are over
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: scooping the ice cream. And every time you over scoop
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: the ice cream, it costs us 38 cent. And that
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: 38 cent compounds the X, Y, Z amount of dollars
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: per year for us that you're costing us.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: And so if you can't get these scoops right, we're
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: going to have to let you go.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: You can't get these scoops right.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: And you ain't get them right.

  Speaker 3: Hell no. Fuck him. Okay. It was a big ass
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: white man driving a Mazda Miata. You can't talk to me.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: That's real.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: You can't talk to.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Me about nothing.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: What about you, King?
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: High school.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: I thought I got suited up, had the resume that
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: had nothing on it. And I remember I was like, damn,
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: all these people here, you know, high school kids.

  Speaker 1: I'm like, all right.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: And I go in there, he sit me down. He's like, yo, man,
• 19:44

  Speaker 3: I said, well, okay. Yeah. Well. he pulled out this box, briefcase,
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: and it was knives. Rob Markman, Jr.: Oh, Vector? Vector knives.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Rob Markman, Jr.
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: I didn't know what it was before going there, though.
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: It was just like, yo, you get commission, blah, blah, blah, blah.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: You know, you're a high school kid.
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: You don't know what they're doing. Y'all get there, I said,
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: say what? So then he said, yeah, the knife set
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: is 400. I was like, oh, this nigga want me
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: to sell $ 400.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: Knives to who?
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: My mama got better knives for one third of that price.
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: And I agreed to do it. And I was like, no,
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: I'm not doing this shit.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: How long did you agree to do it for?
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: Oh, that shit was.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: I think I showed up at the spot one time
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: and they would give you all this stuff. And I
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: was like, I'm not doing it.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's about... I got scammed into that too.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: I was disappointed too.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: When I first moved here from high school, this is
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: where you could find jobs on Craigslist. So Craigslist used
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to be like the classifieds. So I ended up getting
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: a job on Craigslist, and it was commission, commission-based, but
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: they were like, you can make so much money in
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: a day.
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: That's how they get you. Guess where I.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Stood for my first day and my last day at
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: a gas station. Guess what I was selling?

  Speaker 1: people left, I had to listen.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: It was bad. Listen, I just needed money, bitch.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: At this point, I was almost just selling my soul.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: Like, you want to help me out?
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: I need you to buy this shit, which actually I
• 21:08

  Speaker 1: So when did you turn?
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: You know what's great? So, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's actually
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: a real team.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: No, clearly.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: Two things happened.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: High school, my church, I went to Faith World Omega Church,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: and that nigga ended up getting caught up in not
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: only a divorce, but stealing from the church. He had
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: a Hummer, PJ... So that was where I was like, ooh.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Faith World is a crazy name for a life. Faith World.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: Now we bringing faith to the world. It's like Costco
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: for Christ. That's crazy.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: And then the second one that really put the nail
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: in the coffin, my first year in college, my elective
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: was African American Studies.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: And there was- Randy, your one. Another one for the wife. No.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: You know what's crazy? For me, African American Studies was
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: where I was like- The way the slave masses, the
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: way Christianity was just looped into it, there was just
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: no fucking way it was going to be something like.
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: Oh, so at that point, you was like, I can't
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: buy this shit.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: At that point, I was like, hell no.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Never mind.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: That was for a reduction. For a reduction.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was against it.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: For that reason. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shout out to you. So, yeah.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: I was just like, oh, yeah, this is some bullshit.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: This is a cult. And then I really started reading
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: about all the cults.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: It's really a cult until it's massive. Like, everything starts
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: as a cult. Until it's, like, widely accepted. That's what
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: the missionary part of it is. Because Mormonism is a
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: cult unless it was widely accepted. Scientology, same thing. If
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: it was widely accepted, it would be a religion.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think we're getting to a point where
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: both of them are becoming more widely accepted, though. Like,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: you have a whole state that accepts it and leads
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: by it.
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: 2026, like, being overly religious is like, niggas is like... Weirdo.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: Not bad. You're weird. That's legit how it feels nowadays.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: You're weird. Yeah, like, come on, bro. I mean, right
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: now we have people using... Look at the president, son.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: They're using their religious beliefs for him.
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: Like, look at what's going on in the world, and
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: then you tell me that the God is in the sky.
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: Sky daddy.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Sky daddy.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: It can't be this.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: And also, none of y'all's stories is fire enough because
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: they're not old enough. Like, nigga died, woke up three
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: days later like, I'm back, nigga. All right, I might
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: get down with a nigga like that.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: That nigga spun the block in 72 hours? What? Nigga
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: moved a rock.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: Nigga.
• 27:05
  Speaker 7: What?
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: You thought I was walking on water for fun? Is
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: that a hobby, nigga? Nigga thought you could kill me?
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: I got a fish fry with two fish, nigga.
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: I'm putting cases on all you bitches.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: Nigga, what?
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Not y'all turning God into sounding like Denzel on training day.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Y'all taking too far.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: Nigga, the devil took me to the mountaintop, offered me everything.
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: I told that nigga, eat a dick. It's my daddy land, nigga.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: It's my daddy land. That's when you start really talking.
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: You start really popping. Nigga, you can't offer me what's mine.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: You know who my family is? My father is, nigga.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: They created the communion crackers.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Shout out. Yo, this nigga's out here getting obscure bread, though, because.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: But that's how you tell. That's why you tell the story.
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: What's the, what's the, the YZZZYY? Oh, the zippers and shit? Yeah.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Wait, are they black?
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: No, no.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Why are we talking about? A white one for him, please.
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: Oh.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: I said obscure money because.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: You mentioned communion crackers.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: Okay, but let's not highlight. Don't try to compete with
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: me in my own game.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Let's not highlight white capitalism.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Hey, she's still in my game. Another one for the whites.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: Colonization of game. Gentrification of game.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: You know what? Let's get into what's happening around the
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: world because y'all get on my goddamn nerves. If you
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: have been living under a rock and not been on
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: social media, there have been a lot of riots taking
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: place in Paris as well as other parts.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: Of the world.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: Belgium, Spain, Italy.
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: They can just turn it upside down.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: And this is due to, ironically, them having the same
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: issues as us. They feel as though these countries are
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: leaving it making it very hard for them to have
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: a quality of life and a place to afford to live.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: And then they're also talking about the decline in support
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: for education and the funding of education. Now, I want
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: to bring up also the protests that were happening this
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: weekend across the country, the No Kings protests.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Now, for those of you.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: Who don't know the No Kings protests, they started about
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: two years ago in 2024.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was waiting for that.
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: What?
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: What happened?
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: It's not a parade, it's a protest.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: It's a parade. You know what a protest is, Mandy?
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: These are silent protests.
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: What are the demands?
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Well, what they're doing, and let's talk about demands if
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: we're going to talk about protests as well. What they're
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: trying to demonstrate is that Trump is leading this country
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: to a monarchy. We don't believe in kings. This is
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: a democracy, and it's not that.
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: You don't even got to be a street star.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Well, to me, you can't say that when we were
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: all in the streets for Black Lives Matter as well.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: So you thought BLM was parades as well?
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: That was different. Very clear difference in that approach.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, so let's talk about it.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: This is what I'm saying, the parades.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: What's the difference between a silent protest and a parade
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: to you?
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: It's not a silent protest, bro.
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: It's very clearly organized around being a peaceful protest, but
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: it doesn't move the needle in anything and it doesn't
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: really draw any awareness to anything. It's really just like performative.
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: They do it during the weekday. It doesn't interrupt anything.
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: It's not really interfering with anything that the state has
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: to go on. Niggas getting permits. Niggas have police protection
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: out there. This is a parade.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: You're talking about for the No Kings parade?
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Yes. Parade.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: I'll change it.
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: This is in alignment with... It's in accordance with everything
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: the city and the state needs it to be.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: The only reason why I will disagree is because over
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: the last two, three weeks, there have been a lot
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: of protests on campus that did happen also during weekends.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: That's not a No Kings thing, though. No, it wasn't
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: No Kings.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: This is my point. This is what I'm saying.
• 30:49
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: These were people rallying behind a cause. not around like impulsive,
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: not being impulsive, but being like urgent. We're doing this now.
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: We're not planning. I'm not saying that it can't be planned.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: It obviously has some sort of impact. It obviously is
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: drawing some type of attention where Mark Zuckerberg decides to
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: censor them. Because the day that they were supposed to
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: start the parade, I mean the protest, they basically got
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: their pages censored.
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: All hashtags, shadow ban, all that shit. You can't find
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: any footage of it online.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: Okay, I will say there was someone saying that none
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: of it was being showed.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: The account, it actually just disappeared. Yeah, so there's obviously
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: something to it, but I think the thing is, the
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: reason why I say it's performative is because you can't
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: in the same breath say, oh, we want to protest
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: like friends, but when Black people were protesting like France
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: and Ferguson. Y'all cried because they burned down a quick trip.
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: Or when we was protesting George Floyd, you cried because
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: the CVS gets burned down.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: This is the same shit. So it's like.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Do you believe that that's the right way to protest?
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Only because I do see people in France complaining too.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: You're burning down.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: Bus stops, monuments.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: What is that really doing?
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: Here's the thing about France as well. They don't have
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: a militarized police system.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: Nobody's getting gunned down in the street. The police in
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: America will kill you.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: This is the thing. So this is a stark difference. Also,
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: the less France can depend on exploiting Africa, the more
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: things get fucked up in France, which is why you're
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: going to see an uptick in their protests against the
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: state because the state is running out of money because
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: they get their money from exploiting black countries.
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: And that's the point, too, because it's like France, they
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: pay high-ass taxes in France. I think the highest tax
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: index in France is like 45% of some shit like that.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Well, they get six weeks of paid vacation.
• 32:45
  Speaker 5: But that's the thing about it. That 45%, they got
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: universal health care over there.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: They're supposed to be taken care of.
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: But it's going to get rolled back the less that they're...
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: Because their income is similar to the state of Israel.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: If America is funding the state of Israel the same
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: way that certain African countries.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: Niger and Burkina Faso. Haiti as well. Burkina Faso just
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: kicked them completely out. And this is also a gold.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: Like a basic gold mine of a country that they've
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: taken ownership back over.
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: They're going to see a decrease in their income because they.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: Was dependent on these exploiting these black countries for centuries,
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: if you want to call it that. But the less
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: that they can exploit other people, the more they realize
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: they don't have anything to produce anymore.
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: To make up for their loss of income. Right.
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: So the people are going to start struggling. It's going
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: to get to a three-week vacation from six weeks.
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: I think that's my thing, too. Even seeing this, the
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: way we talk about here, how we know our taxes
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: are supposed to go to fix the roads and do
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: all these things. To me, they're doing that to their
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: own thing. Their own tax dollars are what's going to
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: have to pay to fix everything that they just burned down.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: Your president just went on national TV and said that
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: Iran's retribution to the states is to get rid of L.A.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: He recommends L.A.
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: Because it's a small price to pay. So even with
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: those stores that we're talking about, the CVS, it's a
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: small price to pay for a bigger cause.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: That's just collateral damage to a bigger mission. Which is actually.
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: Crazy to say anyway, because I understand the California aspect
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: of it being more Democratic, super liberal.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why he said it.
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: What I don't understand is saying San Diego, which is
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: like a large military base.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: But also, he ain't got it all. No, he doesn't.
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: But he just said yesterday, he was like.
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: He said, oh, yeah, you want to vote for the Democrats.
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: They want everybody to have free health care.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: I'm like, yo, clip that. Use that as your campaign slogan.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: Like, what?
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: This nigga's just giving you layups. Well, no.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: I think last week, everyone was, like, cheering behind him.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: And he was like... You see, I could say anything,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: and y'all are just going to.
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: I say some of the dumbest stuff, and y'all cheer
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: for me.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Y'all just cheer for me.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: It's a joke.
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: The thing is, you have to also understand that at
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: the end of every movie, the walls close in. When
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: this corruption is deep, the walls close in. And the
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: walls are closing in. And you're going to start to see,
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: especially with these midterms coming up, so make sure you
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: register to vote.
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: Please.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: If you haven't been registered by now, I think the
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: deadline has passed. But if you are registered, don't just
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: sit there and be like, okay, I registered.
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: Go vote. Or make sure you're registered.
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: Make sure your name is actually still on the roll
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: because they play that dirty game.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: And I will say it again. If you are doing
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: a mail-in ballot, it doesn't matter when it's stamped. It
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: matters when they receive it. So get that shit in
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: the mail by next week.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: And if it's possible, please go vote in person.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm still- Try.
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: To vote early in person if you can. So I
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: vote in Florida. Okay, that's real. But yeah, no, the
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: midterms is going to be interesting. Bookmark that. Put a
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: pin in there. What? Nothing. I didn't say nothing.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: What the fuck you looking at this for on my registration?
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: I got to help the goddamn red state. You said what?
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: You voting for Angie Nixon?
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: I am.
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: All right, we back.
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: Another point for the blacks. Hold on.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: And to be fair, and to be fair, To hear
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: a politician speak the way she did, so she did
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: an interview with Ben and Rachel on Higher Learning. I
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: liked her even more.
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, man. She's fire. No, she's fire. But that's the thing.
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: So what I'm speaking to is that we're getting politicians
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: out of politics and getting people in politics.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: We are, yeah.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: And so this can't be like a job of nepotism.
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: This isn't something you just hand down. And a lot
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: of rural parts of this country, these are jobs to
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: these people.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: These are not positions.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: So they're getting hand down. And that type of shit
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: got to go.
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: And then even the thing with Abdul Saeed, where the
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: guy went up and said, are you going to disavow
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: the Islam? He cooked the shit out of that boy.
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: He's a Republican talking head.
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: So he was there to start this. This is the thing.
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: When you have something this deeply corrupt, The walls that's
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: closing in, you're going to start to see these people
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: fold on each other.
• 37:12
  Speaker 7: Oh, no.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: And we're seeing all of their true colors.
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: Their true colors.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Like, it's right there.
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: These niggas are rolling aliens out. Listen. They gave us
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: a three-for-three pack.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Nah, nah, nah, nah.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: Yo, they rolled out a little three-pack of aliens.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Nah, nah, nah, nah.
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: I was like, hey. They didn't even look real. Wait, wait, wait.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, wait, wait. Is it aliens or is it robots
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: with flesh?
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: And you tell me what the difference is. The little
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: Elon special? Brock cooked these bitches up. Make her neck
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: long as shit. The fact that.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: We're being told we about to have the flying cars,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: I think it's just more of robots with flesh.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: It could be.
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: That's what happened really with Katie. I think she just
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: glitched up there and they're like, fuck, we got a
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: malfunctioned one.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: Get her out of there.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: That's another thing too.
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: It's like, Niggas is like, I don't care about the
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: flying car. For one, there's no functionality in that. There's
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: no societal necessity for that. It's probably AI anyway.
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: Right. Because he does own a generator of AI. So
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: he's probably AI.
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: And this nigga is in court fighting for the right
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: to call you a nigger on the job.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Listen.
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: And he's a fucking, not like, he's overtly a Nazi.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: I love it. So Crystal liked the post. And I said,
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: I see you, Crystal, because my homegirl got a Tesla.
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: And I was like, wow, yeah, let's talk about, like,
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: if we're so loud about Target, here's one that we
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: should get loud about, too.
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: A lot of niggas got Teslas.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: Nah, a lot of niggas got Teslas and them Cybertrucks
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: they can't sell.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: Well, you know what? Yeah, because first of all, it's
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: a horrendous car. It's an ugly-ass car. It's not the
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: car of the future. It's a piece of shit. I
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: feel like if you buy, I feel like when you
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: order a car from Elon Musk, you should have to
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: get branded. Ooh. Yeah, wear that. Yeah, wear that. And
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: wear it on your face.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, there are bumper stickers that say that
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: they got.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: The cars before. Who gives a fuck? Trade it in.
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: That's like getting a gun and putting a sticker on it.
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: This is not for murder. Right. Wait, wait, wait.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: You don't have guns for murder?
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: No, I have guns for self-defense.
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: Okay. This is not for self-defense. This is not a weapon.
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: Let's say that. This is not a weapon. I was
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: knocking around. We found it. We got to it.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: We found it.
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but like, it's just, it's stupid. You're trying to like,
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: this is not, this is not an ethical vehicle.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: It's not ethical to the society. It's not ethical to
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: this nigga's, like, his reputation precedes him.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: And does.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: He's a daddy money guy.
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: Mommy money type nigga and come in when things are
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: already successful and slaps his name on it.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: He's not.
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: You know, they try to prop him up as some
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: super intelligent, autistic nigga that can't leave the office.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie.
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: He's a fucking weirdo.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: I think this year, especially with this pod, it's been...
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: there's been light brought to just laws and things of
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: protection and ways that people can go around that are sickening.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: I think for me, and leading, and I hate to
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: keep bringing it up, but knowing that there's a law around, well,
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: if you have a drink, because you want a drink
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: and you get sexually assaulted, you can't claim rape because
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: you voluntarily had a drink. I think even knowing that
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: there's a distinction between those two things.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: I think a rapist makes that law.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: Like, it's disgusting.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think we don't have a, I mean,
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: but even a step further to stay with this nigga.
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: If you dump $ 350 million of your own money into politics,
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: that's not politics no more.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: That's not democracy. That nigga's trying to buy a car.
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: That's commerce. Yeah.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: It's crazy because I've been seeing the difference in the
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: money that... Keisha Lance Bottoms has in her advertising, I
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: think she got like $ 9 million. And compared to Jackson,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: who had $ 110 million.
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: Of his own bread.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Just being able to spend it. And it's just like, damn.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: That's not politics, bro.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: No, that's what I'm saying.
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: When I saw that difference, I was.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: Like, This is, you can't, this is, the campaigning should
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: not be seen as an investment.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we also have a president offering Americans $ 5, 000
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: if they vote red.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: $ 5, 000 in this economy is nothing, nigga. It's not worth it.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: Two months of rent. And then he offered to give
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: you 10% up front, something like that. Yeah, the $ 500.
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Into the red states.
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: He promises some shit there.
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: Ask them ICE agents if they ever gonna see a
• 41:27
  Speaker 5: dime of that 50 grand that he allegedly promised.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: You're not gonna see none of that dime ever.
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: And that's another thing that they're scared of, too, because
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: these ICE agents... are raping these children in these ICE
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: camps and they're getting them pregnant. And that, with the
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: right government in place, with the right Congress in place,
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: be protected for perpetuity.
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: Not only protected, but prosecuted.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. This actually brings me to questions in
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: terms of law enforcement. I know ICE is, Not really
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: law enforcement because they're not enforcing shit, but crimes, essentially,
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: against humanity. But this is not a sports podcast, but
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: former NBA star Amari Stoudemire has.
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: Stepped into law enforcement.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: I don't like that you look like that, by the way.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: You do your little side looks to Big Daddy Kane
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: over there. And I just don't understand.
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: I understand. You just saw Big Daddy Kane for the
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: first time.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: Big Daddy Kane?
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Look, what you want? Somebody called him
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: a Big Daddy yesterday.
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: Listen, you just keep looking over there. We're going to
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: make sure you get out on your.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: Time, my brother. I wasn't looking like that. I was
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: looking because.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: Because y'all talked about this already?
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: I told you, HR, bro. Listen, listen.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: Listen, well, we had this conversation a couple weeks ago
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: because my good brother to my right, Ja, felt really
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: passionate about... Shaq being doctored honorarily into the FBI. However,
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: I'm seeing the opposite reaction to Omari joining the force.
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: Went into the comments. Y'all know this is what this
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: pod is about. I want to see where emotions are spread.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: And Omari seems to be getting admiration, saying that he'll
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: be able to help the community. This is something he's
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: always wanted to do. And then I think it's interesting. Friday,
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: y'all will hear our conversation with Glasses, but knowing that
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: the first episode of The Drop is about a Black
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: cop being killed. And so, or music being created around that.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: And I kind of wanted to talk about the hypocrisies
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: of Black men in uniforms. Now, clearly, you hated... The
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: FBI honorary doctorate.
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that shit is trash.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: He's actually gone through the academy. Yeah, the whole thing.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: His family is full of cops.
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: He said his sister is a cop and his uncle
• 43:35
  Speaker 5: was a cop and all of that shit. This nigga
• 43:37
  Speaker 5: left the NBA, the National Basketball Association, to join the
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: National Black Blue Lives Matter Association.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Like, what do we.
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: Come on, dog. A pig is a pig, bro. It's
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: all the same to me. Do y'all not want.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Okay, so if we're talking about us becoming a part
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: of things where we can change, right? If y'all are
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: okay with Jay-Z being a part of the NFL and
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: making sure that our voice is heard, I would like
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: to know why you don't feel the same around.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: I'm cooked, too.
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: That's all good. We got to make the sacrifices to
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: be the truthful people. Some doors got to close and
• 44:13
  Speaker 4: be honest.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to talk about what the.
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: Parallel looks like.
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: Okay, so here is the parallel. This is the honest
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: part of it. You can't immerse yourself in an already
• 44:23
  Speaker 4: corrupt system and change it from the inside. You have
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: to restructure the entire system. The system of policing is
• 44:29
  Speaker 4: birthed out of the system of slave catching. That just
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: is what it is. And it's still structured that way
• 44:34
  Speaker 4: because until you change the process of how you can
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: become a certified police officer, it takes longer to become
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: a barber than it does a cop.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: These niggas don't know the law. They're basically trained into.
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: Their protecting and serve the state.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: They protect and serve property. They protect and serve the rich.
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: They never historically have or presently protected and served their community.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: So they're HR, right?
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: That works in HR because they'll shoot the shit out
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: of you. Yeah, I was saying with guns. HR with guns.
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: And like these niggas, like as somebody who spent a
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: lot of time at gun ranges and shot with a
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: lot of cops, these niggas not even good at their job.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: I will say it's interesting because- No.
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: You can't be a fat cop. These niggas are out
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: of shape. These niggas aren't- What?
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: And I could be a fat cop if like the
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: whole thing is like, yo, get out.
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: But look at all the reports that we've seen of people,
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: black people, who have been accosted by police officers because, oh, this.
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: Plate came back and stolen, but the cop misread the
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: license plate as an LP. The nigga had some kind
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: of dyslexia. But there's a situation with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: Department where they're competing to see how many black people
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: they can pull over, who can pull over them other
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: black people.
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: Just impeding on your day like that. Not even about
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: you violating.
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: Anything or doing anything wrong.
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: A traffic.
• 45:56
  Speaker 4: A traffic violation shouldn't even require, like, a pullover. There
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: has to be a different system just for traffic violations
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: unless it becomes criminal when you're, like, putting other people's
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: lives in danger.
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: As long as they're not coons, though, do we not
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: want more of us in a system that can't protect
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: us that we know?
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: The system can't protect them when they're not coons. Look
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: at Christopher Dorner. Yeah. Like once they.
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: There's also a history of good cops being outcasted by
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: the system of policing.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: If not putting their lives in danger to be whistleblowers
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: in those systems as well. So the system itself is corrupt.
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: Well, you can't dismantle the system that is set forth to...
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: protect communities. So what does it look like? Because we
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: don't have the privilege of, what's that community in Brooklyn
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: that has their own hospitals, law enforcement? The Jewish community.
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: Williamsburg.
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: What is it called, though?
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: The Hasidic Jews.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: The Hasidic Jews?
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: We're not able to form communities where.
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: We get our own hospitals and things like that. We're
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: also not allowed to just dig tunnels. Oof. And they've
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: been popping out.
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: You're also not allowed to, like, not have flock cameras
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: in your neighborhoods. There's something going on in that community
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: as well, that they're excluded from the same practices that
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: everybody else is subject to. So the thing is, when
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: you see those stark differences, you have the common question
• 47:13
  Speaker 4: to what the system is and who it's working for
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: and why. So the thing is, is that if there
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: is a recorded activity of white supremacists and neo-Nazis being
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: immersed in the system of policing, if the California police
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: system is focused.
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: Overrun by cop gangs. You know what I'm saying?
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: Like, if you have these cops in Charlotte, which is
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: a metro city, with a black sheriff or a black
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: chief of police still doing this shit where we're going
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: to compete to see how many black people we can
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: pull over, then what does that say for the rest
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: of the area surrounding that?
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: It's tricky because, again, when I lean into... I do
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: like to compare, and I like to hear what people
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: are saying. And so... At the same time, we want
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: to vote Angie Nixon. We have a black mayor here,
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: Andre Dickens. I just don't understand. If we know that
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: our political system and our democracy is corrupted, we are
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: voting them to make change inside a corrupt system. What's
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: the difference between voting them and accepting black people into
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: law enforcement?
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: Well, what I would say is that I can put,
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: me personally, I can put more....
• 48:27
  Speaker 5: I can take somebody at good faith more who wants
• 48:29
  Speaker 5: to be an Angie Nixon or somebody who wants to
• 48:32
  Speaker 5: work as a politician than I can for a cop. Like,
• 48:36
  Speaker 5: look at what happened with Tyree Nichols in Memphis. Like,
• 48:39
  Speaker 5: there were all black cops that killed him.
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: A whole gang of them. Freddie Gray. Yeah, Freddie Gray.
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: All black cops that did that to him. At least
• 48:47
  Speaker 5: with a politician, while I get the idea that, you know,
• 48:50
  Speaker 5: there's plenty of people who are just never going to
• 48:51
  Speaker 5: trust a politician, I think that there are people, to
• 48:54
  Speaker 5: his point, that When you're talking about people who want
• 48:57
  Speaker 5: to get into politics and not career politicians, I could
• 49:01
  Speaker 5: put more good faith or give them the benefit of
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: the doubt than.
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: I could for cops. And because the position is not
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: inherently violent. Right.
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: And it also doesn't come with this caveat of I
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: can kill because I fear for my life.
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: Well, it's weird.
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: You say that, but there's a difference as well when
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: you talk about violence, right? So with abuse, you have
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: physical abuse, you have verbal abuse.
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: And to me, as a politician, you actually can kill
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: millions of people when you're not giving certain, when you're
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: hiking the cost of health care. You actually are killing
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: millions of people in a violent way without.
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: It being violent. I think the thing being this is too,
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: is like when we talk about participating in the civic
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: Part of the politics is that we understand that these
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: things come down to a vote and they come usually
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: at the vote of which side has more power. Okay.
• 49:48
  Speaker 4: Being that the Democrats are the Republicans. We see what
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: the Republicans have done with a large amount of voters.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: Get on the show, right.
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: Power is like literally dismantle 70 years of work.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And we talking about like.
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: That being, that coming as a direct result of like
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: not only propaganda, so a trick to the masses is
• 50:09
  Speaker 4: are feeding into the racism of the masses.
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: But also, niggas got to, like, niggas shat where they slept.
• 50:19
  Speaker 4: And now they see the results of that. So these
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: things are like pendulum swings, right? We're in the midst
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: of a pendulum swing, right? And so, I think that
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: politics is always kind of going to go through a
• 50:29
  Speaker 4: pendulum swing depending on the state of the society. And now, like, unfortunately,
• 50:35
  Speaker 4: things had to get worse for them to get better.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: It's real bad.
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: With policing....
• 50:39
  Speaker 4: We have a very clear, like, understanding of, like, what
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: role it plays in, like, how it shows up in society.
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: So, I don't get nervous when I see a politician.
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: Even though I know, like, how mighty... I know how
• 50:52
  Speaker 4: mighty the pen is, but I know how mighty the
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: sword is, too. And the sword is very present when
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: you see police. So, the thing is, it's also, like,
• 50:59
  Speaker 4: the history of discriminatory practices against black people.
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: Every system is guilty of that. Is guilty of that, yeah.
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: But the inherent, like, the violent aspect of it, like.
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: Politicians may hide behind the pen, but like Derek Chauvin
• 51:13
  Speaker 4: kneeled on that man's neck for nine minutes. You see
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying? And I saw that. And so the
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: thing is, is that it's not the issue of Derek Chauvin.
• 51:23
  Speaker 4: It's the three niggas that stood around and did nothing.
• 51:25
  Speaker 4: That's how I know I can't change that system. At
• 51:28
  Speaker 4: least in politics, the people on the other side are
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: arguing the other side. They are trying to convince. There
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: are people that are clearly in favor of the people
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: and just don't have the voting power. because of how
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: the votes turn out. But I'm not even saying that
• 51:43
  Speaker 4: it's just a guarantee that we're just going to change
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: that system from the inside out. I would say that
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: it's a lot more feasible to do it in that
• 51:51
  Speaker 4: system than it is in policing.
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: Well, then are there any conversations that, like, do any
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: of y'all have family members in law enforcement? A-King, you do?
• 52:01
  Speaker 5: I don't have any family members. I had some people
• 52:04
  Speaker 5: in military service, that kind of thing.
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: No cops, though. My people don't fuck with the police.
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: Okay, because I mean, I have both my sister and
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: brother were in the army, which- The military- The military
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: is different.
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: People go to the military for various reasons, too.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: But you're fighting for the country, this bullshit, especially being black.
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: That's the conversation, too. per se, right?
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: No, they're choosing to fight for this country.
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: No?
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: No?
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: This job in the military. Listen, listen. It's not like
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: the only job in the military is show up with
• 52:34
  Speaker 3: a gun. It's called kill niggas, right? Yeah. Niggas do administrative,
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: niggas do paperwork.
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: There's very clear.
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: Listen, when you say, I want to be a Green Beret,
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: when you say, I want to be a Navy SEAL,
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: you're like, yeah, I want to get in there and kill.
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: My sister was a sergeant, and even though she was
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: in the kitchen... she had to be ready for war.
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: Of course.
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: They had to be prepared for war. But that doesn't
• 52:53
  Speaker 3: mean they'll engage with that. And most of them, I
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: know a lot of Abuku people in the military. It's
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: just a gig. Yeah.
• 52:58
  Speaker 8: You know niggas who didn't have shit going on after
• 53:00
  Speaker 8: high school that was like, When you're a cop, when
• 53:03
  Speaker 8: you sign up to be a cop, nigga, I know
• 53:05
  Speaker 8: that I am going to have interaction with the public
• 53:08
  Speaker 8: that can turn violent every day.
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: You signing up for that.
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: You also don't get to sign.
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: The other thing about it is too, it's like, We
• 53:20
  Speaker 4: are patriotic to a fault, to the point where if
• 53:23
  Speaker 4: we don't see the violence, we're able to kind of
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: like cope with it, right? So like when you say
• 53:30
  Speaker 4: you can't, and this is America gets tricky, you can't
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: say that we've killed Iranians and we showed up on
• 53:35
  Speaker 4: their land. It ain't like they pulled up on us.
• 53:39
  Speaker 4: You can't say Iranians are killing American soldiers. Offense can't
• 53:42
  Speaker 4: be defense.
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: It's like you went there to engage in war, nigga.
• 53:45
  Speaker 4: Somebody gonna die.
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: That's like saying, the Vietnam, like, yeah, you're in their jungle.
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: You're in their crib. You're in their jungle, fam.
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: I will say, and we had the conversation about going
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: to a museum. That was probably the museum I felt
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: the least comfortable being in. And, like, I shouldn't have
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: been there. So I went to Vietnam and went to
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: the Vietnam War Museum in Ho Chi Minh. Boy, did
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: they not really teach us shit about what really happened.
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: And that was like, that was the one museum where
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: I was like, I feel uncomfortable being in here as
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: an American. Like, I don't think I'm supposed.
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: To be in here.
• 54:23
  Speaker 4: That's why there's so much military propaganda around it. So,
• 54:28
  Speaker 4: this is the thing. It's like, when you see cop shows,
• 54:32
  Speaker 4: when you see military, like, this is the thing. Like,
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: America is tricky. You'll go to a country and, like,
• 54:38
  Speaker 4: shoot and kill women and children and then, like, make
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: a movie to make me feel bad about the nigga
• 54:43
  Speaker 4: that was doing that.
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: Right. Like, fuck. I don't give a fuck about Bradley
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: Cooper crying because he's a sniper.
• 54:50
  Speaker 4: Nigga, you ain't no business over there. You signed up
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: for this gig, baby.
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: Like, the thing is, is, like, this is why they have, like,
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: the Forrest Gump. That's, like, a military propaganda. You know
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: what I mean? Like.
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: Life is like a box of chocolates.
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: Just trying to make it seem like, oh, man, this is, like...
• 55:03
  Speaker 3: This is just a... It's just war, man.
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: It's just war, man.
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: There's nothing really.
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know a lot.
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: And then the fucked up part is like, they do
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: all that and then play Fortunate Son. Like, nigga, they
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: telling you what the play is.
• 55:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: Nigga, if you got a little bread, you ain't even
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: got to worry about this.
• 55:16
  Speaker 5: And to your point about the pendulum, like, you said politics,
• 55:19
  Speaker 5: there could be a pendulum swinging, right? We go from MAGA,
• 55:22
  Speaker 5: now we've got these far left progressive DSA.
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: That's the pushback, right? But in policing, ain't no era
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: of good policing. There's no era. There ain't no era
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: of police swinging. There's no pendulum. It's like, it's this.
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: And it's never going to be nothing but this. At
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: every turn.
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: Because the thing is, we can't... Here's the thing. America
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: is going to do what's in America's favor.
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: For the longest time, America's favor is what's favorable to
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: white men. But then we get.
• 55:50
  Speaker 4: When we see the era of civil rights and we
• 55:52
  Speaker 4: see the amount of laws that are passed in favor of.
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: even though black people still struggle.
• 55:56
  Speaker 4: post-Civil Rights, post getting the vote, post.
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: All of these policies that are passed, post these things,
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: we still struggle. This is a back to the drawing.
• 56:08
  Speaker 4: Board for white people. So the pendulum does swing. Okay,
• 56:11
  Speaker 4: it swung in the favor of everybody but white people
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: for this one thing. Now we have to figure out
• 56:15
  Speaker 4: how to swing it back in our favor. And then
• 56:18
  Speaker 4: we formulate the CIA. All of these things happen.
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: Around and like damn near in a vacuum. But, I
• 56:25
  Speaker 3: think the thing is, is, like, we can see a
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: clear change, and, like, we have to also understand that
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: history is more of a pattern.
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, history repeats itself.
• 56:33
  Speaker 4: It's more of a flow than it is anything else,
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: and it's, like, you know, if you can kind of, like,
• 56:39
  Speaker 4: properly engage with it, you can see what part you're at. And, like,
• 56:44
  Speaker 4: I think it's just time for us to, like, also
• 56:48
  Speaker 4: not just be accepting of the fact that we have
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: to repeat these things.
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: We can actually change them. I agree. Like, you know,
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: you study for a test, like, You get the shit
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: wrong once, you go back double. They asking you the
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: same questions. You shouldn't get it wrong twice. You know
• 57:00
  Speaker 3: what I mean?
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: You right.
• 57:02
  Speaker 3: Well, Deontay.
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: We hate that we have to see you go.
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: I know, man. I like being here with you. Listen, listen.
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: You know, well, hopefully we can get you to wake
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: up earlier one of these days.
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: I'll come back for a part two.
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: I'm with that.
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we need a part two. We need to go
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: on Grits and Eggs. You got Grits and Eggs? I'll
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: be hungry.
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: You got Grits and Eggs?
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: Why does everybody do this? Listen, niggas go to the
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: breakfast club thinking they gonna have breakfast. Okay.
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: Do they? Yes, they do. Wait, do you like your
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: Grits savory or? We're not gonna do this. Salt, pepper, butter.
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: Maybe some cheese. The proper way.
• 57:36
  Speaker 4: That's it. Also, stop seasoning your eggs like it's a chicken.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: I don't like it either. I don't like it either.
• 57:43
  Speaker 3: I've seen this going around a lot lately. What?
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: What is this?
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: What is this? What is this?
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: Hey, we got to leave that for part two, my brother.

• 58:04
  Speaker 1: Deontay had a hard out and he refused to wake
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: up early enough to give us a full hour and
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: a half.
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: The HR is HR-ing.

  Speaker 1: y'all not see? I am an equal opportunist. No, 100%.
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: I treat... and hold everyone accountable.
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: You do.
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: And when that nigga had the nerve to sit here
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: and say he doesn't wake up early, I recalled his
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club interview.
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: So I also keep receipts for everyone. And he called
• 58:35
  Speaker 3: himself too. He's like, oh, well, I didn't go late.
• 58:37
  Speaker 3: I didn't go early. I didn't go early. It was
• 58:39
  Speaker 3: walking distance. He's like, nigga, yeah. I know you went early.
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: It's Breakfast Club.
• 58:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're not doing breakfast until 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

• 59:35
  Speaker 1: All right. Hey, King.
• 59:36
  Speaker 3: No, I'm just telling you what the internet streets told me. Hey, King.
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: No app store. You told me and I asked.
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: You did tell me and I asked. Listen, I know
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: I brought up Floyd Mayweather endorsing.
• 59:53
  Speaker 3: Endoicing. That's that Bronx. Endoicing.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: What do you endorse? But we're actually not going to
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: get to that. I think we talked enough about Literally,
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: and clearly there's a pipeline of capitalism and people needing
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: things and their decision to align with Trump. If you
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: guys have, again, been living under a rock, Mayweather owes
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: a lot of money not only to the IRS, but
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: a lot of Jews, a lot of whites, a lot
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: of people in Dubai.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 3: Niggas is crazy. He owes a ton of money.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 5: It's crazy that you owe that much money and your
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 5: nickname was Money.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: Money Mayweather. And you had all of this bread. And
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 3: now you in debt.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 4: And the real estate property in Brooklyn, it was a
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 4: bunch of brownstones or developments that he was supposed.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: To be trying.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: Not in Brooklyn. Not in Brooklyn. In the city. You
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: were with me. Remember when you asked me that super... That.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: Big-ass tall building that we were looking at.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: So we were in New York and you asked me
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: about that super tall building.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: Yep, yep. He was a part of that.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: He was a part of that.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: That's crazy.

  Speaker 1: Listen.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: That's crazy work. All I know is it.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: Looks like he's pouring into Clarissa Shields and her thing
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: because he's clearly.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: Out here promoting her matches.
• 1:01:03

  Speaker 1: Speaking of being an individual who is very loud with
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: his voice and does, he does encourage voting. He may
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: not always encourage voting on the right side, but he
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: encourages it.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: Well, we'll talk about that.

  Speaker 3: We didn't even know.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: By the way, we're not getting into this on this episode.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: I want to give him credit because he's getting shitted
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: on right now on the goddamn internet.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, no.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: And it might, I don't know if it happened around
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: the same time or he got the idea from Combat Jack,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: not sure. But Elliot Wilson was the first that I.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: Saw with the Crown series. Like, Elliot did, and he,
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 3: the rooms that he did, Yeah.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: With just a sit-down talk, no performance.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: Like, niggas did not get on the mic and perform. Again,
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: I got to see, and y'all hear me talk about it.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: I flew from Vegas Memorial Day weekend, like a thot.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: We did something with him, too.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: After mad things at Hard Rock. If y'all don't remember
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: the Hard Rock pools, you are too young to be
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: listening to this podcast. But it was called Rehab.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 3: Shout out to Rehab. So literally, Memorial Day weekend.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: Hard Rock, ah, ah, ah. That either Monday or Tuesday,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: Elliott Wilson had J. Cole in a crown series in
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: New York. Boop.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: Jetted there.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: With all of $ 300 in my account, I don't know
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: how I was moving without a credit card at this time.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: With intention and hope and belief.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to lie.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: That's how niggas got it done. No, no, no. It
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 3: was crazy. It was crazy.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: But.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: To know that conversations were that. Real quick, do you
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: remember what that conversation with Killer Mike and DJ Drama
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: was about at the time? Because he's, was he an
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: activist yet?
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: No.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 4: Well, he's always been that way. He's always had that,
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 4: you know, he's always culture-centered.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 3: Right. You know what I mean?
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 5: That was before Run of Jewels, though, I think. Or
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 5: maybe the first Run of Jewels? I think that might
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 5: have been the first album.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's out there, you know, go to Apple,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 4: you know.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 3: But, I don't remember exactly. Well, actually, thank you for
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 3: saying that.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: Wait, y'all were recording live shows?
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, no. And it came out as episodes. Yeah. Come back, Dex.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: With intros. That's why I'm like... Wow. The recipes are there.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: That's why I.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: People who want to jump into space, it's like... It's there.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: Here's the blueprint.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: I always give credit to you, too.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: I hate.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: Damn, it sounds so familiar. I hate even when she
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 3: tells people how to do it. I'm like, no, don't
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: tell them the cheat code.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: You know what's crazy about that?
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 3: Ultimately, guess what? You have to do it.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing. I'm not a gatekeeper, but also people
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: have been wanting me to do courses and e-books and
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: all these things. And it's crazy because I could tell
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: you exactly what I did, but I feel like I
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: would be stealing from people because it doesn't mean you're
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: going to get the same success.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 3: At all. It doesn't mean. So what about the people
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 3: who do do it?
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, they're scammers.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 3: That's fucked up. But that's the thing about advice though, right?
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: They're scammers. You don't think they're scammers? You don't think
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: they're scammers? Let me tell you how to make a
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: million dollar podcast.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 3: You said what? Bring it to Atlanta.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 4: I think, look, if you have the bandwidth to give
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 4: information and you want to package it and get the
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 4: return on investment, I'm not mad at it. As long
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 4: as you give the right advice, because no matter what
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 4: advice you give, you still got to execute.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: People got to do the work.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 5: But to be clear, yeah, good advice can be good advice,
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 5: but what someone is telling you about their experience isn't
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 5: your path, necessarily.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: How many times I told.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 3: Her, don't mess with, don't stick your dick in whatever, Ashley,
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 3: and then boom.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: No, don't stick your dick in Ashley.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 3: And we still stick our dick in Ashley.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: All the Ashleys are getting a goddamn stream of that.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: Ashley, get your syphilis.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: Now, Killer Mike recently sat with my good friend, Vic Mensa.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: Shout out to Vic Mensa.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: And I'm so mad he was in London. When I
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: was out in LA.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: Oh, was he?
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 5: Oh, I did see his London Town promo for his tour. Yeah,
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 5: I love it.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: He was like, literally, he was like, man, I'm about
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: to be in London when you're in my city. Y'all
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: will be seeing me on the goddamn orange room couch, goddammit.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to get my script right for sexual
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: liberation and women's rights over there with the orange tree, okay?
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 3: How about that? But Killer Mike.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: Recently sat with him. And there was a lot of
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: pushback from Vic on... Killer Mike's stance on capitalism. I
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: want to play this clip because it also includes a
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: drop or something that I love. I better clip this
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: shit up.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 3: I never said that.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: But if you could go ahead and play this, this
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: is what Killer Mike had to say on the Vic
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: Mensa podcast.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 9: Because I've never fucking said it. Yeah, I've never fucking
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 9: said it.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: You stupid motherfuckers just keep lying. You've made me into
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: this weird ass fucking meme.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 7: Jamie Fred Hampton also famously said, we're not going to fight.
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 3: Fire with fire. We're going to fight fire with water.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 7: We're not going to fight capitalism with black capitalism. We're
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 7: going to fight it with socialism. So when you had
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 7: the new rap and you was like, move like a capitalist.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 7: I was trying to understand that. I don't believe that
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 7: my personal finance is going to get the masses.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 3: I never said I believe that. What did I say?
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 3: I want to know.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: When you say move like a capitalist, do you feel
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: like capitalism is a liberatory force? When I said I
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: move like a capitalist, I didn't say I am a capitalist.
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: I said I move like a capitalist because I realize
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: at some point niggas can't be capitalists. So if you
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: want to get mad at Mike for saying that, I
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: used to wonder, and I literally asked in elementary school,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: how does a slave buy their freedom? That doesn't make sense. Well,
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: slaves didn't work on Sundays. Yes, Sundays are. You, as
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 2: a black person, understand my labor is worth something. At
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: some point, I had to say to myself, Michael, does
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: by any means means that any means any means?
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 3: Because any means.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: By any means necessary, means by any and every means necessary.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 7: And that doesn't mean that it's going to liberate the masses.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: Before you liberate the masses, liberate your black ass.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 3: Liberate your mind through study.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 7: At no point in time have I heard you say
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 7: anything that sounds like, You believe that capitalism is going to.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 9: No, because I've never fucking said it. Yeah, I've never
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 9: fucking said it. You stupid motherfuckers just keep lying. I'm
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 9: not saying capitalism saves the collective.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: I'm saying if you and your cousin choose to live together,
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: you can save some money. I'm telling you what my
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: Indian friend did. I'm telling you what my Somalian friends do.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying that we're going to have to use
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: every tool we can available. Or you could just wake
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: up and kill 20 governors tomorrow.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 3: You know you could do that. That's an option. If
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: you want to expedite the process, do it.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: No, no, I know it could.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 3: It could happen.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 2: All I'm saying is, the shit I'm saying is outrageous
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: as it sounds. There's a quick step to get to it. Now,
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 2: if you want to expedite the process, violence.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 3: Frans Canaan said that, right? First chapter.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: Black capitalism won't end capitalism, boy. But some niggas with
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: some money sure can't help buy some guns.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 5: And some books.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: Shout out to the Vic Mensa show. This was great.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 3: That was good.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: This was great.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 3: He's done a great job out the gate too, man.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: Oh, killing it. And he's been working on this for
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: a while. So I'm so proud to see what he's done. Also,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: this was shot in Fred Hampton's home.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, his childhood home. Beautiful. And his childhood home.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: So if you watch the video, there's like the Black
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: Panther table that they're sitting in.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 3: He probably got his sanction by Frank Hampton Jr.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 3: There's no way they could have gone in there. Who
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 3: was in his mom's stomach when the shooting went down.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: Wow. Right.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 3: Crazy.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: So there was a lot here. And I want to
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: tackle this in a way where Deontay Lucky is fucking
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: out here.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 3: Oh my God, I wanted y'all to hear so bad
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 3: for this topic. I definitely wanted to hear what he said.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: No, that's why he said, he heard them topics, he said,
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: y'all ain't slick.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 3: Y'all motherfuckers specifically chose these. You think he dog walked
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 3: us a little bit in the last segment? No, no, no.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 3: Real quick, real quick.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: Run the tape back.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 3: Do you think I.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: Wanted to spend that much time on law enforcement and
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: Amari Sotomayor?
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: Fuck no. That nigga started, that.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: Nigga started, well, let me create a monologue here and here.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to talk about Killer Mike. I think
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: he did it on purpose. He was watching the clock
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: just like I was, motherfucking HR.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 3: Y'all was watching the clock for different reasons.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: We was watching the clock. As soon as I ended
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: the top of the episode, he said, oh, Killer Mike,
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: that's what y'all trying to do here?
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: Nope.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: I live in Atlanta. But here's the thing.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 3: We'll do it. We'll do it.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: We'll do it.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 5: But I feel confident that he's going to address this.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: On Grit and Egg. Oh, he will. Oh, he said,
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 3: he said, I want this on Grit and Egg. Plus,
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: it's like, he's not.
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 3: What he said. I mean, he's already cooked Jay-Z.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 5: He already knows that the idea of being in association
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 5: with Roc Nation is donezo.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, not really, because you said he's going
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: to be here.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 2: Who?
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 3: And, you know, old girl is a Roc Nation artist.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but that's her independent thing. As far as, like,
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 5: he's not going to the brunch. He ain't going to
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 5: get no invite to the brunch if the brunch is still...
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 5: First off, the brunch doesn't exist anymore.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: The brunch doesn't exist anymore.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 3: Hypothetically, the brunch.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 2: Um.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: Also, I guess I want to get into it because
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: what Killer Mike is saying here is there's a difference
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: between generating wealth and distributing opportunity. When we're talking about capitalism,
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: when we're talking about black capitalism, when we're talking about
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: how we as black people are able to accumulate wealth,
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: distribute it within and care for community while also caring
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: for ourselves, which I think he says pretty clear here.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: There's also a distinction between Speaking of generational wealth and individualism,
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: which he said, you got to liberate your goddamn self first.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: You got to worry about yourself. I felt that.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because you know how they say you got to
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 4: get your house right first, right? That was my take
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 4: from hearing that, you know, even in relationships. Don't get
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 4: into a new relationship with baggage, right? You try to
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 4: clear up all that shit before you be in a
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 4: healthy relationship.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: But getting your home right first when we talk about Capitalism, even,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: and I hear Van say this all the time on
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: Higher Learning, when we're talking about capitalism in the sense
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: of giving back, you also are driving really nice cars
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: and have really nice watches. So when you're getting your
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: house situated, like a killer mic, He's been around for
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: at least two decades. I think that he's in a
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: place where financially, his house is fine.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: He probably has a really big house. He could probably
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 3: fit five.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: Of my apartments into his home.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my house is in good shape.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: So the getting your home right, whatever that looks like,
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: in terms of when we talk about even having a
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 1: salary that pays for just the standards of living. Someone
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: making Killer Mike money, the house is taken care of.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: So then what does it look like for community?
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 4: He had to work to get to that point where
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 4: he can get his house in order. He just didn't
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 4: snap out.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: Of nowhere and get it in order.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but 20 years later, he has it.
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 3: It's labor, and you should be able to, you know,
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 3: get some fruit to that labor.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: You know how I said community is seen as this, like,
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: great word, but when you put it to other communities,
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: it's not so great? Do you get what I'm saying? So, like,
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: when we talk about community, we're talking about.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: Helping one another. Helping one another. Be there for one another.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 3: Having organization to uplift community.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: When other people talk about community, you could be talking
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: about a terroristic community. You could be talking about the KKK.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: It's their community. White people lean into philanthropy. Right? White people.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 3: They get rich, and then they say, oh, yeah, I'm
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 3: a philanthropist now. Oh, yeah, it's tax write-offs. We don't
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: know what the fuck that means.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: To me, I just.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: I'm over the conversations of villainizing capitalists as a bad
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: thing when, if we talk about the American dream, we
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: all are striving to.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 3: Have some element of it. There's a difference though.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 5: Capitalism and like, first off, we all exist within this system, right?
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 5: So like, I don't think that my opinion of capitalism
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 5: as a political, social structure is not the same thing.
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 5: And we all got to go to work. We all
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 5: have to make money. You can't live in this society
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 5: and not pay your rent, not pay your car note,
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 5: not pay for groceries.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 3: Unless you join Nature Boy's cult.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, unless you're going to join Nature Boy's cult and
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 5: you're going to wipe your ass with leaves and shave
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 5: your face with rocks.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 3: We all got to go make money.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 5: But commerce and the idea of doing business and capitalism
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 5: aren't the same thing. And I think that the problem is,
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 5: is that People.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 3: Have just conflated these two ideas.
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 5: And, like, for those of y'all who pay attention to, like,
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 5: the FD Signifiers and ill bills and Dr.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 3: Jared Balls. Can I just tell you?
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: Internet came to my home. FD Signifier was put on
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: my TV.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: He did a breakdown of the biracials.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, he's done all type of video essays.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, it would be internet to get to
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: my house and put FD Signifier.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: Internet is tapped in. Internet is tapped in.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 4: When did internet decide that she was... That wasn't random.
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 4: She's like, I'm going to go to Mandy's house.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 5: I'm going to make sure she know about this shit
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 5: right here.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 3: Oh, Airplayed. F.D. Signifier.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: Airplane F.D. Signifier on some TV.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 5: But the thing is that we all have to do commerce.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 5: We all have to go to a job and work.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 5: Or if you're an entrepreneur, you have to have your
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 5: business to hopefully be profitable to make money. But capitalism
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 5: is more of a political structure than just.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 3: Like commerce, we all have to do.
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 5: Capitalism is about attaining and acquiring as much as possible
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 5: regardless of the outcome, regardless of what it affects, regardless
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 5: of what the thing is. It's more about individualism than
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 5: anything else. It's about we're going to gather everything. When
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 5: we talk about us, not Skynet, that's the Terminator, but
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 5: the company that is acquiring Paramount and all of these companies,
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 5: and we're talking about monopolies. That's a pure capitalistic thing.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 5: where we want to have control of everything. You can't
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 5: touch a product without us being involved because we own
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 5: it all.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 3: That's not the same thing as having your local business
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: that you sell.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 5: Sandwiches or hair products or whatever your thing is, and
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 5: you're making money. Even if you get rich, that doesn't
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 5: make you a capitalist. That means you had a successful business.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 5: Capitalism is.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: So you would separate the two? Someone having a small
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: business from being a capitalist.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I think they're inherently different in every possible way.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 5: Because I don't think capitalism is about making money. Everyone
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 5: wants to make money. Is there a form of oppression
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 5: that's attached to capitalism?
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 3: 100%.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, first off, well, capitalism, especially here, when you
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: put it in.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 3: When does it harm people?
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: Well, it's interesting because, okay, I'm going to share this.
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: And it was really difficult to have it because he
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: was a white man, but he was a foreigner.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 7: So.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 1: I was at a bar this weekend. Very nice bar.
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: I was eating caviar and chips.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 3: Doing bumps? No, like, no, I wasn't. Whoa. Not caviar, but, nigga, no.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: Bumps?
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: They're not bumps.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: It was only one ounce.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 3: Couldn't do too much bumps. I didn't even know they
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 3: do that. I was putting it on the chips.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: Bumps?
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: I wish I didn't make that mistake. I wish you
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 3: didn't clean that up. I wouldn't have had to walk
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 3: that dog.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 7: Damn.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: So I'm at this really nice bar.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: And I'm sitting next to a guy, and there's an accent.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: And the only reason we start talking is because I
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: get a Sauvignon Blanc or a peanut Sauvignon Blanc.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: And I try it. I said, do you have a Sancerre?
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 3: And that perked his ears up.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: Well, it perked his ears up because what I said
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: no to was a product of Italy. And so he's like,
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: do you mind if I try it? Cause I didn't
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: want it. He like put it around.
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 3: Did he drink off the same spot that you drank from?
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 1: Just like a white man.
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 3: No, he did. He drank from the other side of
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 3: the glass.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 7: Oh, okay.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 3: I was about to say, he was trying to get.
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: He did drink from the other side of the glass.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 3: But it was interesting because.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: We started having a conversation about him being from Italy.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: And then it gets a little political.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: Because, you know, I'm like, oh, Milan, there's protests going
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: on there. Just like in Paris. And, we start talking
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: about the protest that's happening.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 3: He said some Fox News shit. Hold on. Hold on.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: And almost immediately, I see where he's at. So this
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: is clearly a very wealthy man.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: I don't even want to talk about it.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 3: The way he spoke- You know what it is.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: And here's how I knew. So he goes to start
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: telling me about the economy of what's happening in Italy.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: And of rents. and immediately this is where I knew
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: what side he was on. He blames the immigrants.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 3: Of course he does.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: Not only does he blame the immigrants, he says, you know,
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: when it comes to tax dollars, they take more from
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: the economy than what they give. And so, yeah, they
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 1: come and they do these jobs, and, you know, so
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 1: I get what they do, but they take more than
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: what they give. So then when they want to tax
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: the wealthy, it's just like, why? So we can make
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: their lives easier? It doesn't make sense. And then they
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: try to do these things, and this is how I
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: knew he was really wealthy. He was like, yeah, like,
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: And I can't remember the fucking city. But he brings
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: up some part of Italy that tried to issue a
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: tax on boat owners.
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 3: The yachts.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: It could have been Amalfi Coast, Sicily.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 3: They don't like Sicily.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: So he goes to talk about how the government is
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: so stupid. Because he says, so they go and sit
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: here and try to put these taxes... You know, on
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 1: the people who could pay it to think that that's
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: going to help because these immigrants aren't putting enough into
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: the economy. When they just don't know, we'll crumble.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: The whole economy.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: By moving our boat somewhere else. And I was just like, wow.
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: I felt like I was talking to like, oh, you
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: one of them.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: Listen. And so as I'm hearing him like, they're so funny. Like,
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: they think that they could just tax us. and make
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: us pay to help the lower people. Like if I
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: want to not pay, I move my boat somewhere else
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: and then I just crumble the economy because now you
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: no longer have my boat here. So I don't pay here.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: You can't bring things in. And so it was, when
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: I tell you, I was just, I was listening because
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: I knew I wanted to bring this conversation here because
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: I don't think I've been in, and I'll let y'all
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: know off air where I was, but to talk to
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: someone Speak of immigrants, even from a foreign nation like that.
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: And he said he's been in America for 13 years,
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 1: but still very Italian.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: And to hear even his thoughts on the protests, who's
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: the problem, where the money's going, because the protests, again,
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: are for people who feel like they can't afford the
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: cost of living and removing budgets and funding from education.
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: And literally he turned that into, nah, immigrants are the problem.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: And so it's interesting having Trump run a country right now.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: Us as black people having conversations about the fucking diaspora
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: and capitalism and how we fund money when really it
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: trickles all the way back up to the top.
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 3: Yep, the immigrants are arguing about immigrants.
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: Well, and we're not even immigrants, but the oppressed arguing
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: with the oppressed. It's the oppression Olympics all over again.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: And we continuously have these, Questions on who had it
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: harder to be raised and who works themselves out or
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: who picks themselves up from the bootstraps the best. Because
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: we also have these conversations with the Latinos.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: When he said immigrants, as an Italian, he wasn't talking
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: about Mexicans.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 3: No.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: Whatever immigrants he was talking about.
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 3: Niggas. Not being Italian. No, no, no. Not being Italian.
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 5: No, but in the EU, they're talking about Muslims.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 3: No, I was going to say. Hold on, hold on. No, no, no.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. When I go to Dubai, in
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: Dubai or the Middle East, the immigrants are Indians.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 3: Right. They're like.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: Or.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 3: Pakistani or Bangladesh. People from Muslim countries.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: So no, it's not niggas. Let's be very clear. Yeah,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 1: but hearing him talk about immigrants, knowing how we define
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: immigrants here, because we know our president was talking about
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: drawing a fucking border with a country. You know what
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: I mean? Which ironically, by the way, if y'all haven't seen,
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: I have this thing saved. We'll talk about it. Mexico
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: has been listed one of the best countries to live in.
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: In the world.
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 3: You know what the best state? You know what the
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 3: best state?
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 1: Wait, there's a best state to live in?
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 4: They just recently, I forgot what the, they do an
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 4: annual report. The best state, based on all of these
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 4: different factors.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: And we talked about it.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 3: Cost of living. Okay. It's crazy.
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: New York. Really?
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 4: I only think they did contribute that to, because there's eight,
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 4: nine million people that live there.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 3: So they have a different. Oh, the census is skewed. Well,
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 3: to be fair. And then it's the financial capital, right?
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: They make money. That's why fucking Kelly Clarkson was like,
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: I can buy this $ 15, 000 bird.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 3: New York City is just a small circle, right? Yes.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 3: But a lot of people that's wealthy, they don't live
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 3: in New York City.
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: No, no, let's be very clear.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 3: Or they do in pay houses. So when they say living,
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 3: I get why Westchester, Rockland County, Albany, I get it.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Long Island, Suffolk County.
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 5: But this was a big part of what Mamdani was
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 5: talking about. And I'm going to move from this to
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 5: a wider scale in a second. But a lot of
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 5: the things that Mamdani was talking about was, when he
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 5: was talking about taxing the 1%, was him standing outside
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 5: these buildings and being like, the CEO of Microsoft lives
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 5: on the 78th floor of this building. He doesn't live
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 5: in New York. He owns a property in New York,
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 5: and he can use his address in New York. But
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 5: this motherfucker lives in Connecticut or wherever the fuck he lives.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 3: Delaware. Pennsylvania. Florida, maybe. Rhode Island. Rhode Island. Boston.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 5: We live in all these other places, but they're here
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 5: in New York because they do business here.
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 3: They have an address here. Commerce.
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: Those are them. And I brought up them. But I'm curious.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: I want to bring it back to Killer Mike. Especially
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: with you having the A hat on, with us being
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 1: in midterms, with us talking about Floyd and where black
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: voices are pushing an agenda that doesn't seem, you know,
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: great for our community, Killer Mike has gotten that backlash
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: as well.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: So in having this conversation, in playing semantics, too, very, very, like,
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: narcissistic of him.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 3: I didn't say I was a capitalist. I said I
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 3: move like a capitalist.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: Like, let's not... I mean... I fucking hate the word.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 3: But also he... The word player.
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 4: Vic Mensa used a rap lyric. Vic Mensa is a rapper.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 3: They know rappers... They say shit. You know, double entendre,
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 3: triple entendre.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: Double entendre, then you got niggas that also.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 4: Are you going to find to pick a lyric?
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, to an extent, yes, because he explained...
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 3: So I listened to the episode. Move like a capitalist. Yeah, but...
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 3: He said move like one.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: Old Josh said, I did my journalism. I watched the
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 1: whole episode.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I watched the episode. Because my thing was like, okay,
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 5: I understand people have been angry at Mike for a while,
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 5: way before this, about various things. He had a meeting
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 5: with Brian Kemp. He took a picture with Brian Kemp.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 5: And people have twisted that into he campaigned for Brian Kemp.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 5: He actually campaigned for Stacey Abrams. But he did meet
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 5: with Brian Kemp because Brian Kemp won.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 3: He's the governor. Mike wanted to get something done.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: Diplomacy.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he has the power.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 5: If I want something done, I need to talk to
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 5: the person that has the power to do the thing
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 5: that I want done. The same way Mom Donnie sat
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 5: down with Donald Trump. And everyone praised Mamdani for sitting
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 5: down with Donald Trump and calling him a fascist to
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 5: his face and whatever. But no one is looking at
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 5: Mamdani as if he turned his back on his people
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 5: because he sat down with Trump twice now. Very public
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 5: meetings with Donald Trump. Everybody understands where he's at. In
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 5: regards to Mike, so I agree with you about the
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 5: semantics part.
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 3: The semantics. If he walks like a duck, talks like
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 3: a duck, quacks like a duck, it's a duck.
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 5: And so I understand why people might look at it
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 5: and not have good faith. It might be like, I
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 5: hear what you're saying, but that doesn't jive. I also
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 5: listened to Dr. Jared Ball, who has, I forget what
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 5: the book exactly is called, but he has a book
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 5: basically debunking the myth. You hear this stat a lot about, oh,
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 5: Black America has $ 1. 2 trillion worth of spending power. The
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 5: spending power.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 1: We talk about that a lot.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 5: And if we moved our dollars here and did these
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 5: other things, that we would be able to free ourselves.
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: You agree with that or you don't?
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 3: No, I don't. Well, no, I agree with Dr.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 5: Jerry Ball in that that is a fallacy. And Vic
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 5: pointed this out to Mike, which he did a really
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 5: good job at pointing this out to Mike.
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 3: When you talk about that number, that $ 1. 2 trillion....
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 5: Like, when you think about the things that people spend
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 5: most of their money on, that $ 1.
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 3: 2 trillion is about rent.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 3: It's about car notes.
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 1: Sustaining life.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 3: Sustaining life. You can't not spend money and sustain your life.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 3: So that $ 1. 2 trillion isn't a number about....
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 5: We were born to buy Gucci and Prada. That number
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 5: is mostly about living and being able to live. Now,
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 5: are niggas buying some bullshit? Are niggas infatuated with buying
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 5: shit and keeping a status quo?
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 5: But that number was given as a number for companies
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 5: to figure out how they can target the black community
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 5: and get more out of us.
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 3: Which is where the capitalism comes in. That's not them
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 3: doing commerce.
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 5: That's them saying, where is the next stone that we
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 5: can draw all the blood out of and take advantage
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 5: of those people to suit our own bottom line? In
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 5: the same year that black women are getting laid off
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 5: in mass and unemployment is on the rise and people
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 5: are fucked up.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 3: That shit don't affect none of these CEOs.
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 5: They're all getting seven and nine figure bonuses for the
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 5: work that they've done in their various companies because their
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 5: companies are making money. That is the difference between a
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 5: capitalist structure and the commerce of just someone who owns
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 5: a business, who, a successful business.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, whatever it is.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 5: So like, I think we have to really be more
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 5: intentional about getting to like the granular levels of what
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 5: these things actually mean and not just making it a
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 5: blanket statement of, oh, capitalism means making money because that's
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 5: not what that means.
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 4: You know, one of the things I hear when I,
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 4: with the discourse with Killer Mike over the years and
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 4: even now is, Even when Kamala was running and it's
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 4: kind of like challenging her.
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 3: And I didn't like that.
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to lie.
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 3: He went so hard. And I get it. I get it.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 3: We should always. Well, only. Not necessarily. When it was
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 3: her against him. In politics.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 1: That was the time.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 3: Right. That was the issue. That was the time. And
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 3: people have a problem with that. That's my thing. That
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 3: was the time.
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 3: You're doubling down on. We just lost the moment. Right?
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 4: So I think what it is with Killer Mike and
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 4: what I would offer to him is that he understands, look, G.
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 5: I would love to have Killer Mike on.
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 3: You are an intellectual. You are revered to the highest degree.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 4: And you're a rapper. You come from the rap soil
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 4: of Outkast, right? So we have a certain expectation for you, right?
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 4: I think that in this time period, we just need
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 4: him to make it clear. And I'm not saying that
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 4: everyone's not on his level, but we're all shouting at
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 4: each other.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 3: Everyone's emotional. And black people, the black community is looking
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 3: for a win. We're looking for a few wins.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 4: And for us, and I know I'm speaking for a
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 4: lot of people, we look for him as a win.
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 3: But I don't think he gives us that yet. He's
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 3: capable of it. But just make it clear.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 4: So we can know, so we can figure out how
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 4: we move around this You know, with so-called leaders.
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 3: And I consider him one.
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 4: But I think he just needs to make it clear
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 4: so we can move accordingly. Because we can just do
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 4: this podcast shit back and forth and have.
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 3: The jargon, the lyricism, and the wordplay and all that.
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 3: That's cool. But make it clear, bro.
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 4: And I'm not saying that for me, because I understand
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 4: both sides of things.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 3: But I think the masses want you to make it clear,
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 3: my brother. And that's just it.
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 1: By the way, pause.
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 3: Pause.
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 1: That's the clip.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 3: Damn it. Yo, this is going to be part of
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 3: the podcast. We'll be called out. She's the worst. I
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 3: was like, let her go. She's the worst. But I
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 3: also want to say, too. Hey, Killer Mike and King
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 3: has the best interest. Listen, Killer Mike is a good brother, man.
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 3: Like I said, we sat down with him many times.
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 3: And this isn't making the clip. No, no, no. We
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 3: want people to listen to the episode. The whole thing.
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 3: The whole thing.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 4: I think passionately, look, I said it in a few
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 4: episodes ago, we don't have no more time left.
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 3: The clock is ticking. Yeah. After the midterm, after next, what,
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 3: we got another two weeks? Less than two weeks?
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: Is it?
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 4: I don't know if we don't make it on the
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 4: other side of this thing, how we want to see it.
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 3: We don't know what that looks like. No, 100%. We
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 3: don't know what it looks like.
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 5: The other thing I want to say that's kind of
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 5: expanded out from Killer Mike is that personally, I believe
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 5: that Killer Mike loves black people.
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 3: Of course. I believe Killer Mike wants the best for
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 3: black people.
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 5: There's always been tension amongst those seeking liberation about what's
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 5: the right way to go about it. And that can
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 5: be very polarizing depending on what side of you... We
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 5: talked about with Deontay about... people working inside a system
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 5: and people who want to just change the entire system.
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 5: What's actually a more viable way to go about it?
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 5: If you think the system is inherently corrupt, what do
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 5: you think that you can do inside a corrupt system
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 5: to make it better?
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: Well, there's a difference between rehabilitating and abolishing. And that's
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 1: been the conversation.
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 5: And I think that most people are at a point,
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 5: because we don't have a lot of time, because we've
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 5: seen all these things happen, I don't think people are interested.
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 3: In trying to make the bad good.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 5: They just want to eliminate the shit that's bad and
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 5: make something new so that it works for everybody.
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 3: But what I will say is that.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 1: You know how you can't make everybody like you?
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, 100%.
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: That's my problem.
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: This idea that we, the minorities, will create a system
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: that works for everyone. Like, when we have these conversations,
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: that's where I'll be like, it sound good. But it's
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 1: not going to work for the majority of the country
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 1: because it's going to serve us, which is going to
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 1: go against the needs or wants or desires or inner workings.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 1: Like humanity, unfortunately, as a whole, the fact that we
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: bring up aliens, we talk about like we might be
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 1: more like these aliens. It makes me feel like the
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: systems that we want to create. would not be viewed
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 1: as better because we're the minority. And it would have
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 1: to make us human. And we see that they don't
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 1: look at us as human.
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 3: No, no, no. They don't look at us as human
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 3: at all.
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 5: But where they fuck, when I say they, I'm talking, really,
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 5: I'm talking about broke-ass white people.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: The fucked up part about- It's not even them, hold on,
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: broke ass white people aligned with the rich ass white people.
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 3: No, rich ass white people. Hold on. They feel like
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 3: they're like rich ass white people. No, no, exactly. But
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 3: that's the problem though.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 5: They don't realize that you don't have nothing in common
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 5: with them people.
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 3: They don't give a fuck about you.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 5: If you actually got on the same timing as niggas,
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 5: you would be better. But you drank the juice of
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 5: all of this bullshit and so- white supremacy in the
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 5: American way, in the American dream, in American exceptionalism, and
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 5: all this other bullshit, that shit was made just as
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 5: much to confuse you and fuck you over as it
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 5: was made to fuck us over. You just think it
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 5: don't apply to you because you white. And that's the problem.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 5: If y'all niggas actually got on board with the messaging,
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 5: everyone could be good.
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 3: Hardy R. Hardy R. Hardy R.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 5: Y'all could be good. Because I don't think black people
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 5: really want.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 3: Revenge.
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 5: Niggas want to be left alone and niggas want to
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 5: be good. And if that means that all of y'all
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 5: can be good, we're not tripping. We're not asking for
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 5: nobody to really suffer. We're asking for y'all to stop
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 5: fucking with us. And if that means that y'all can live.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 3: A good life and we can live a good life,
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 3: then so be it. But they've chosen to align themselves.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 5: With the 1% and they don't give a fuck about you.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 5: Trump don't give a fuck about you. These Republicans don't
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 5: give a fuck about you. They're trying to help their
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 5: other rich friends. And y'all think somehow y'all fall into
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 5: the same category as their rich friends.
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 3: You do not. I promise you, you do not.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: Y'all, by the way. Y'all ate this edition. That's another clip. Yomi,
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 1: can you put that down? We're going to go ahead
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 1: and clip this nigga on that.
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 3: Note, guys. I got a question, though. This is ignorant.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on, hold on.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 3: I got to eat. Me and Yomi, I got to
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 3: catch up. I'm talking about food right here.
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: Food for thought?
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 4: I never been to Bankhead Seafood, which is Killer Mike's
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 4: and T.I.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 3: 's establishment. Oh, okay. So if these niggas don't have
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 3: wild caught fish in that establishment... Fuck that capitalism shit.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 1: You know it's farm raised.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 3: Nah, we don't know. I'm giving the benefit of the doubt.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 5: So here's the last thing I want to say before
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 5: we get off of this whole thing. I think that
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 5: at some point, and the reason I brought up, I
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 5: believe that Killer Mike loves black people.
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 3: He's been doing the work for a long time. Yes,
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 3: he does.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 5: We have to decide... There are coons.
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 3: There are skin folk. Don't do that, John. No, no, no.
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 3: Listen to me. There are skin folk. But what I'm
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 3: saying is... Not him. No, no, no, no. But that's
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 3: what I'm trying to say.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 5: We have to decide the difference between the people that
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 5: we disagree with and the people who don't love black people.
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 5: Even if you think that what Killer Mike's saying is harmful, okay, fine.
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 5: You disagree with it. You think that's a bad idea.
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 5: I don't have no problem with that. But I think to...
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 5: Position Killer Mike as the ops, I think, is incorrect.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 5: I don't think Killer Mike is the ops. I think
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 5: we can disagree with some of his ideas or what
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 5: he thinks is the right way to go about it.
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 5: That's not a problem. Because not for nothing, Vic did
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 5: a good job of... pushing back against Killer Mike. But
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 5: I don't think Vic Mensa, as woke as we know
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 5: Vic Mensa to be.
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: For those of you listening, there were air quotes?
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 5: There were air quotes, because I hate that. I'm using
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 5: air quotes because it's been bastardized. But as much as
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 5: we know Vic Mensa has.
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 3: what.
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 5: We would call the right side of history and understanding
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 5: of how this shit goes.
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 3: I don't think Vic Mensa hates Killer Mike.
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 5: I don't think Vic Mensa is looking at Killer Mike
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 5: like the opps or something. So what I'm saying is
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 5: we have to decide the difference between people who love
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 5: black people and maybe you have an idea that you
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 5: disagree with and people who are acting in bad faith
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 5: who you know don't.
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 3: Love black people. Officer Tatum is not Killer Mike. No.
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 5: Some of the, I forget the name of these other
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 5: coon-ass twin niggas.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 3: Jason Whitlock? Jason Whitlock is the twin. Oh, the podcast niggas. Yeah,
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 3: the fuck-ass twin niggas. They're not Killer Mike.
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 5: Jason Whitlock is not Killer Mike.
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 3: You might disagree with Killer Mike, and that's fine. The
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 3: sports nigga. That's the Jason Whitlock. No, the former NFL player. Oh,
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 3: Emmanuel Acho. Yes. Yeah, niggas like that.
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he tricky.
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. He got some bullshit going on.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 1: That's a tricky one.
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he got some bullshit going on. But we have
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 3: to be able to.
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: I got to talk to Joy about him.
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 3: I would love to have Joy on the show, too,
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 3: because I want to talk to Joy.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 1: I would love to have Joy.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 3: I do want to talk to Joy.
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 1: When Joy comes back here.
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 3: We got to have her. Yeah, we got to have
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 3: a conversation with her.
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 5: But we have to distinguish between the people who are
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 5: the enemies of black people and the people that we
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 5: disagree with.
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 3: Because there is a push.
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 1: To figuring out and you have the intellectualism then you
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 1: have the street code all these different Diasporas of how
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 1: we even think, right?
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, 100%.
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 1: Oh, God, y'all see my voice.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 3: Shut the fuck up and make it clear. That's it.
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you can't win because everything requires nuance. Everything
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 1: requires comprehension. And Killer Mike and his experience of what
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: he speaks from is going to be different than a
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 1: black New Yorker.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 3: Yes, sure. They all are not also monolithic.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 5: We don't have the time. We don't have no more
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 5: time left. But now we're trying to extend time.
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 3: But right now, it's urgent.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 5: And that urgency leads to a lack of patience. You're
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 5: not going to have patience when it's urgent. If you're
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 5: about to get kicked out of your house next week,
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 5: you don't have time to go on 40 interviews.
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 3: You're going to sell drugs.
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 1: You're going to sell that pussy.
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 3: You're going to sell pussy. You're going to do what
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 3: you got to do to keep your shit around.
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 4: Yo, vagina is the most powerful thing. Vagina is the
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 4: most powerful thing ever.
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 3: But that's where we're at, though. We're at a desperate time.
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 1: We are desperate. People aren't. And let's be very clear,
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 1: before we get out of here, for everyone who has
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 1: anything extra to give, for anyone who doesn't watch their
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 1: back when they go grocery shopping and Christmas shopping, this
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 1: is a very, very tough time for a lot of people.
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 1: So the way we see packages being stolen and things
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 1: happening at At the stores.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 3: Be safe out there.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 1: Keep it close.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 3: This is the time.
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 1: Like, you understand? Like, we got polls. We, at this point,
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 3: How they're going to land. Nope.
