- 1:38Speaker 1: I started late, it's not like I'm tired of it yet.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Right So most most of the time, I'm like dyslexic
- 1:44Speaker 1: with life in my career. Like He's supposed to start

- 2:00Speaker 1: own stuff Harnt the House. And then at thirty nine,
- 2:02Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I think I'm gonna take stand
- 2:05Speaker 1: up serious and I'm gonna go do stand up. And
- 2:06Speaker 1: everybody's like, why the fuck would you do that? Now

- 2:14Speaker 1: I've been a star for twenty something years. I want
- 2:17Speaker 1: to be I want to be a superstar, and the
- 2:18Speaker 1: only way to get this is just doing the work.
- 2:20Speaker 1: So I just started doing stand.
- 2:22Speaker 5: Up and you had your fourth Remember one time you
- 2:23Speaker 5: came here, you said you had four specials. Planner's gonna

- 2:44Speaker 1: which was me and my boys, Sydney Castillo, Tony Baker,
- 2:49Speaker 1: DC Irvin shout out to all my people, Saul McGrath.
- 2:52Speaker 1: And then now I'm working on the wild Child tour.
- 2:55Speaker 1: But I probably named this one Skittles, and I'm ready
- 2:57Speaker 1: to film this like now it's a tight it's the
- 3:01Speaker 1: more I keep doing it. Now, I got like two hours.
- 3:03Speaker 1: Now I gotta shut the fuck up. I'm doing too
- 3:05Speaker 1: much because I can't stay on something too long. Because
- 3:07Speaker 1: I started Ruberk's cubing it and then before you know it,
- 3:10Speaker 1: I have two three hours and that's really hard to
- 3:12Speaker 1: cut down to an hour. So I want to hurry
- 3:14Speaker 1: up and do it so I could I know my
- 3:16Speaker 1: next three So for me, I'm I'm I want to
- 3:18Speaker 1: get this done and retire it, so I could, you know,
- 3:22Speaker 1: clear the canvas and paying something new.
- 3:24Speaker 5: This taste the rainbow. You're really about to just say fun?
- 3:27Speaker 5: It you really last time?
- 3:32Speaker 1: No, it's it's kind of to my uh, to my
- 3:35Speaker 1: my trans child.
- 3:37Speaker 3: Shut your ass right up.
- 3:38Speaker 1: You know that's what I mean.
- 3:40Speaker 5: Tell everybody, everybody will giving you triple down.
- 3:44Speaker 1: I don't, I don't, I don't believe in No, you
- 3:47Speaker 1: want to start this, We're gonna were gonna keep going.
- 3:49Speaker 6: We don't we don't keep on going.
- 3:51Speaker 1: No, I'm gonna keep on We're gonna keep on digging. No,
- 3:53Speaker 1: you started it, so you know. But it's it's not
- 3:56Speaker 1: even about them. It's really about me in my transition
- 4:01Speaker 1: as a human. I throw myself under the bus because
- 4:04Speaker 1: I wasn't with the shits.
- 4:05Speaker 6: I wasn't like, yeah, this is great.
- 4:06Speaker 1: When they first, you know, decided to go down this road,
- 4:10Speaker 1: I was against it because I'm like, yo, you're not
- 4:12Speaker 1: looking at life. You know, you're doing this now in
- 4:14Speaker 1: your youth. You may regret this when you like forty
- 4:17Speaker 1: five and you have a kid and you ain't got
- 4:19Speaker 1: no ditties to breastfeed this nigga with Jesus Christy. So
- 4:27Speaker 1: you know, as a parent, I was like, you know, protesting.
- 4:30Speaker 1: But at the same time, I went through this journey
- 4:34Speaker 1: from ignorance and defiance to complete acceptance. And I just
- 4:39Speaker 1: think a lot of people need to hear the truth
- 4:40Speaker 1: from hear a story. I tell funny truths, things that
- 4:43Speaker 1: you know hurt me or things that you know.
- 4:45Speaker 6: I'm imperfect and.
- 4:47Speaker 1: I'm not all the way you know there, I don't
- 4:49Speaker 1: always have the right answers, But I think it's good
- 4:51Speaker 1: to be human and be human on the stage because
- 4:53Speaker 1: when you talk about truth, now you're not just telling jokes.
- 4:56Speaker 1: Now you're actually healing the people in the audience. I
- 4:58Speaker 1: got people coming up with me after my show. I
- 5:00Speaker 1: was crying like, oh my thigh. And they did it
- 5:02Speaker 1: with good grief, and they're doing it now with the
- 5:03Speaker 1: Wild Chiut Tour. It's crazy.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Does your son get offended that your son said Dad? Enough?
- 5:07Speaker 4: Now?
- 5:08Speaker 2: Like this is You've been on the breakfast lip twice
- 5:10Speaker 2: talking about it. You've been talking like enough is that?
- 5:12Speaker 1: Oh they tired of my shit? But see you like
- 5:15Speaker 1: your college paid for? So what I I gotta do
- 5:18Speaker 1: is I gotta talk about things. I'm sorry, baby, you
- 5:21Speaker 1: know da dad gonna do what he do.
- 5:22Speaker 5: You know, it's a beautiful thing about art. If you
- 5:24Speaker 5: try to tweet or even probably explain what you just
- 5:27Speaker 5: explained in an interview and then get mad at you,
- 5:29Speaker 5: they probably try to cancel you. But if you do
- 5:31Speaker 5: it on stage in a packaged way, it'll make more.
- 5:34Speaker 1: Sense because it's your forum and you get to really
- 5:37Speaker 1: unpack your truth. It's I look at the stages, it's
- 5:41Speaker 1: a therapy session, except instead of paying a therapist, two
- 5:44Speaker 1: hundred dollars to, you know, to express myself. I got
- 5:48Speaker 1: these jackasses paying fifty five hours come see me perform.
- 5:52Speaker 1: And I'm like, y'all understand, I'm in therapy right now
- 5:55Speaker 1: and the audience has been my therapist.
- 5:57Speaker 6: And when I hear their laughter, I find the answers.
- 6:00Speaker 1: And you know, I'm just really grateful that God gave
- 6:04Speaker 1: me this, this this career and this this thing called
- 6:07Speaker 1: stand up and this thing called art because I always
- 6:10Speaker 1: take my broken heart and make art and I love it.
- 6:12Speaker 2: I always wanted to know with your son, did you
- 6:15Speaker 2: have to sit down and say, okay, well, explain it
- 6:17Speaker 2: to me?
- 6:17Speaker 1: Break it down?
- 6:18Speaker 2: Because we come from a different place where jokes as jokes.
- 6:20Speaker 2: Did you have to sit down and play explain what
- 6:22Speaker 2: you want me to say, what you want me to
- 6:24Speaker 2: call you, how you feel this, that and the other?
- 6:25Speaker 1: Did you have to go through that?
- 6:26Speaker 3: Yes?
- 6:26Speaker 1: It was so damn confusing because you know, they started
- 6:29Speaker 1: with pronouns, and I'm like, look, I went to public
- 6:31Speaker 1: school in New York City.
- 6:32Speaker 6: I don't know no pronouns.
- 6:33Speaker 1: I know nows and verbs. That's all they taught us,
- 6:36Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So they broke it down
- 6:37Speaker 1: and all this, and it's just it's too much. And
- 6:39Speaker 1: then I got to change from calling them she to
- 6:44Speaker 1: now he and they, and I'm like, they, this is
- 6:46Speaker 1: two of you.
- 6:47Speaker 6: What's what's I don't I don't understand.
- 6:49Speaker 1: My god, I'm I'm just so confused. But they took
- 6:53Speaker 1: me through the tutorial. And you know they know that
- 6:56Speaker 1: sometimes I still because you know, for twenty three years
- 6:59Speaker 1: you with her and now they and they give me
- 7:03Speaker 1: grace because they know you.
- 7:04Speaker 3: Know, okay, but you know they know he knows you
- 7:07Speaker 3: still love them.
- 7:07Speaker 1: They know I love them, They know I love him.
- 7:11Speaker 1: I'll fight, I'll die for them, no matter what, don't matter.
- 7:14Speaker 1: You know that's my child, you know what I mean.
- 7:15Speaker 1: And I think all parents should defend and pull up
- 7:20Speaker 1: for their children. You know that's my child and I
- 7:23Speaker 1: want them to be happin And if that makes them happy,
- 7:25Speaker 1: I'm happy for him.
- 7:26Speaker 7: We saw you come to Boosey's defense when the back
- 7:29Speaker 7: and forth what's happening online with his daughter? Have you
- 7:32Speaker 7: guys spoken? I do other parents call you because you're
- 7:35Speaker 7: very open about your journey.
- 7:36Speaker 1: I frea see people fried me up for coming to
- 7:39Speaker 1: his defense, but I wasn't coming to his defense, I'm
- 7:43Speaker 1: telling people, hey, man, y'all mind your fucking business and
- 7:46Speaker 1: let families work out they shit. That's private between him
- 7:50Speaker 1: and his daughter, and they don't need your fuel.
- 7:52Speaker 6: They don't need my fuel.
- 7:53Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, when you're ironing out your personal problems,
- 7:57Speaker 1: that's between him and his daughter. And everybody got something
- 8:00Speaker 1: the fuck to say. That's why I don't like about
- 8:01Speaker 1: social media. That man is dealing with his child and
- 8:06Speaker 1: they need to express themselves and hold space. We live
- 8:09Speaker 1: in a society where we're unforgiving and all we do
- 8:13Speaker 1: is add fuel to fires and watch it burn and applaud.
- 8:16Speaker 1: And I'm just like, yo, let them. Let that man
- 8:19Speaker 1: hold space. It takes him time. When it first happened
- 8:23Speaker 1: to me, it took me time. You can't expect somebody
- 8:27Speaker 1: to instant be like I accept everything. It takes time.
- 8:31Speaker 1: And God has his way of talking to each and
- 8:35Speaker 1: every one of us. We all gonna have our sit
- 8:37Speaker 1: down with God. I had mine, you know, and he
- 8:40Speaker 1: will have his and our hold space that that man
- 8:42Speaker 1: changes his point of view and that him and his
- 8:45Speaker 1: child come together and love each other like any black
- 8:48Speaker 1: father and black daughter or white or daughter father, period
- 8:52Speaker 1: that's what I want, and people I don't get fucking
- 8:54Speaker 1: oh you should be saying, shot the fuck up. I'm
- 8:56Speaker 1: not gonna defend myself with one hundred and fifty characters
- 8:59Speaker 1: or whatever it is now on X give a fuck.
- 9:01Speaker 1: I said what I said. I stand by Now let
- 9:04Speaker 1: it go. I hold space for that man and his
- 9:06Speaker 1: daughter to come together as a family and figure that
- 9:09Speaker 1: shit out the way me and my child came together
- 9:12Speaker 1: as a family and we figured our shit out. People
- 9:14Speaker 1: need the space to have those honest conversations. I agree
- 9:17Speaker 1: with that.
- 9:18Speaker 4: But I agree with that. But you and your child
- 9:20Speaker 4: didn't work it out through social media.
- 9:21Speaker 1: No, we didn't. Interview was talking because my child been
- 9:25Speaker 1: on followed me.
- 9:27Speaker 4: Then his child replied the interview he did. That's the
- 9:30Speaker 4: problem I'd be having, Like, don't.
- 9:31Speaker 5: Tell your personal business in these interviews if you don't
- 9:34Speaker 5: want the world to have an opinion about it.
- 9:35Speaker 1: Yes, but you know, and that's to their fault. That's
- 9:41Speaker 1: that's that that was something. But they figured it out,
- 9:43Speaker 1: and you know, as they should. But I just hold
- 9:45Speaker 1: space and hold space for prayer and hold space within
- 9:49Speaker 1: myself that people can grow up, that people can change.
- 9:53Speaker 1: Every person should have the opportunity to change, even brothers
- 9:56Speaker 1: that are in prison. There's a reason why there's prison.
- 9:59Speaker 1: It's time for you to sit and time out and
- 10:01Speaker 1: have conversations with God and reform. But when they come out,
- 10:05Speaker 1: we should applaud them for the time they did. They
- 10:08Speaker 1: did the time. Now let's hold space that they're better people.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Now, let me ask you a question.
- 10:13Speaker 6: Oh shit, I don't got myself in trouble.
- 10:15Speaker 1: You said in prison.
- 10:16Speaker 3: I'm just curious. How many times have people asked you,
- 10:18Speaker 3: have you ever been to a diddy party?
- 10:20Speaker 8: They pulled up that tweet?
- 10:21Speaker 4: What the fuck they gotta do a prison?
- 10:23Speaker 1: He made me think about it.
- 10:25Speaker 4: I've seen the baby behind you just made me think
- 10:27Speaker 4: about it.
- 10:28Speaker 1: That's crazy.

- 15:00Speaker 4: you didn't want to say.
- 15:01Speaker 5: Which one the Oh no, you ain't gonna get me
- 15:03Speaker 5: to say that shit. I just said that Magic Johnson

- 15:32Speaker 1: retract statements. I'm not gonna retract jokes. They are jokes.
- 15:35Speaker 1: If I didn't go in these dark caves to find
- 15:37Speaker 1: this little light and this little alixa called the laugh,
- 15:41Speaker 1: what the fuck am I doing this for? I'm not
- 15:43Speaker 1: gonna make everybody laugh at one time. I hope to
- 15:46Speaker 1: tell the right jokes. That's why you go on tour.
- 15:49Speaker 1: That's why you you work it out. That's why you
- 15:52Speaker 1: you throw different things out there and you let them
- 15:54Speaker 1: blow up in your face. You're like a scientist. Let
- 15:56Speaker 1: me put two parts of oxygen, one part high two
- 15:58Speaker 1: parthidrant by that blows up in your face. Well, let
- 16:01Speaker 1: me try it this way. You watch people walk out,
- 16:03Speaker 1: But just because they walk out don't mean it's gonna
- 16:05Speaker 1: be a bad joke. I have people walk out on
- 16:07Speaker 1: that joke, and then that became my biggest joke. It
- 16:11Speaker 1: was like there was like, oh, you can't say that.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Oh I offended you. Oh that means you listening. So
- 16:16Speaker 1: let me go a little deeper. Let me dig a
- 16:18Speaker 1: little deeper because I know this oil here and when
- 16:21Speaker 1: I did, you know that? That was that gave me
- 16:23Speaker 1: an applause break. That's how how much people laughed about that,
- 16:27Speaker 1: because it was literally ten minute run of just going
- 16:31Speaker 1: deeper and deeper.
- 16:32Speaker 6: It started with shack and it kept going, kept going,
- 16:35Speaker 6: kept going, kept going.
- 16:38Speaker 1: They laughed so hard at the Apollo man, I literally
- 16:41Speaker 1: could go, sip me some water and take time to
- 16:44Speaker 1: set up my next topic.
- 16:47Speaker 4: So did Magic reach out to you?
- 16:49Speaker 1: I hope not, but I think when you see me,

- 16:55Speaker 4: Yo.
- 17:02Speaker 1: But I love magic. I love magic, I love the Shack,

- 21:07Speaker 1: because my family back mm hmm. See that's why that
- 21:10Speaker 1: magic joke happened because I had nobody around.
- 21:14Speaker 6: Now Damon would be like, keep that one. I got
- 21:18Speaker 6: a little something more you can add to it.
- 21:21Speaker 5: You realize that's one of the funniest breakfast club interviews.
- 21:23Speaker 5: I don't even like to talk about it. When Damon
- 21:26Speaker 5: Wayne's was up here.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Oh day, I think that's the one that made him
- 21:29Speaker 1: stop doing stand up, because that's why standing up. They standing.
- 21:35Speaker 1: But we feel like the world became so judgmental. And
- 21:38Speaker 1: I think he's right, but he's not. What I found
- 21:41Speaker 1: is the world is judgmental on social media. When I
- 21:44Speaker 1: go to comedy shows, people want to laugh. The audience
- 21:48Speaker 1: wants to laugh. The social media got the got the
- 21:52Speaker 1: studios fucked up. They got the executives fucked up. They're
- 21:55Speaker 1: not making scared comedies because they're scared to make comedies.
- 21:58Speaker 1: They don't think people want to laugh. And I'm like,
- 22:01Speaker 1: you are so wrong, and that's why we're coming back.
- 22:04Speaker 1: We're in the full five. We about dunk Hall and
- 22:07Speaker 1: that people need to laugh. And I know my purpose,
- 22:09Speaker 1: you know, I look at how depressed the world feels
- 22:12Speaker 1: and we need to laugh again.
- 22:15Speaker 5: In his headline, I don't want to say what it is,
- 22:17Speaker 5: but just what he said. That's why no more interview.
- 22:24Speaker 3: You see that grand closing.
- 22:29Speaker 9: I gotta see what he said, remember, and that's the
- 22:41Speaker 9: way he said.
- 22:42Speaker 3: Look I remember.
- 22:45Speaker 1: But here's the thing. As a comedian, that man should
- 22:49Speaker 1: be able to say what the he wants to say.
- 22:51Speaker 1: Who are you to tell comedian? His job is to
- 22:54Speaker 1: find light. I don't care where it comes from, how
- 22:57Speaker 1: it comes. You take the darkest subject, the arcist topic,
- 23:00Speaker 1: and you go, here's what's funny. That is what my
- 23:03Speaker 1: job is. You know what I mean. You can't criticize
- 23:05Speaker 1: a fire man for not putting out part of a fire.
- 23:08Speaker 1: He goes into burning buildings to find bodies. I go
- 23:12Speaker 1: into burning buildings to find jokes. And that's what I
- 23:14Speaker 1: do for a living. And I'm never gonna not tell
- 23:17Speaker 1: jokes period. And if you get canceled, good You know
- 23:20Speaker 1: what canceled means. That means that the real niggas is
- 23:23Speaker 1: staying and them bitch ass niggas went home. Cancel me.
- 23:26Speaker 8: Everybody don't got the back like the backing that yard.
- 23:30Speaker 7: Some communities are scared because they can't just walk away
- 23:32Speaker 7: from stuff, or they're scared that brands walk away from
- 23:34Speaker 7: them down and got no money and they don't have
- 23:35Speaker 7: no ability like you guys have a It's different for
- 23:38Speaker 7: the way you have to stage because.
- 23:41Speaker 1: We have a brand, right, Our brand has stood the
- 23:45Speaker 1: test of times. We started in the eighties, right, this
- 23:49Speaker 1: is generational and now probably forty forty years. That's beautiful
- 23:55Speaker 1: between me, Damon Sean Keenan Kim. That's two hundred and
- 23:59Speaker 1: thirty years comedy between each one of us. Like we
- 24:02Speaker 1: are masters at joke telling people trust our brand with
- 24:07Speaker 1: finding the fund the light. When we did in Living Color,
- 24:10Speaker 1: you know, Damon doing and and David doing Men on Film,
- 24:15Speaker 1: that's the first time gay people were introduced into your
- 24:18Speaker 1: living room and people felt like, oh this is safe.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Even gay people loved Men on Film. Because the way
- 24:26Speaker 1: we do things is we try to do it with
- 24:29Speaker 1: kids gloves. We want the people that we make in
- 24:31Speaker 1: fun of to be like, oh that was funny. That's
- 24:33Speaker 1: why you can't cancel us for white chicks. You don't
- 24:35Speaker 1: love white chicks the most white chicks. So the people
- 24:38Speaker 1: that we send up usually laughed aloudness And I'm sure
- 24:42Speaker 1: Magic Johnson's laughing right now.
- 24:43Speaker 4: You know you bought that up and that's funny, right,
- 24:45Speaker 4: Like I was saying that one.
- 24:47Speaker 1: I love about that one.
- 24:48Speaker 5: I was saying earlier that we live in a generation
- 24:50Speaker 5: that's all about vibes. What happened to talent? Because you
- 24:53Speaker 5: can go back to any of those in the Living
- 24:55Speaker 5: Color cast. Everybody on there was talented. That's why y'all
- 24:58Speaker 5: still here today, not even Wayne's brothers, the David Allen, Grid,
- 25:01Speaker 5: the Tommy Davis and Jamie Fox.
- 25:03Speaker 1: Is like, come on, Jilly Colefield or people don't.
- 25:06Speaker 8: Argue it either. There's no argument of.
- 25:08Speaker 1: Jim Carrey, Jim Carrey, Damon. I mean, because back then
- 25:11Speaker 1: it was you know, that's what thinks. Social media made
- 25:15Speaker 1: everybody feel like, oh I can instantly be famous. You
- 25:18Speaker 1: can be famous, but you're doing thirty second, three minute sketches,
- 25:23Speaker 1: which is cute. But back in the day, you had
- 25:25Speaker 1: to earn it. You had to work twenty thirty years
- 25:28Speaker 1: in comedy clubs before you had a point of view
- 25:31Speaker 1: that Hollywood would then want to take a chance on
- 25:34Speaker 1: betting on you. Nowadays that you got this many followers,
- 25:38Speaker 1: you got this many views, people, oh my god, that's
- 25:40Speaker 1: the next guy to bet on. No, you have to
- 25:43Speaker 1: it takes time, consistency. I've been doing this now for
- 25:47Speaker 1: now me thirty five years professionally and now I'm doing
- 25:51Speaker 1: stand up now fourteen twelve, fourteen years now some wheeler
- 25:55Speaker 1: and now I'm just now hitting my stride. I think
- 25:59Speaker 1: my best year are ahead of me. I'm in that
- 26:01Speaker 1: zone right now because it took me forty years to
- 26:05Speaker 1: really understand my art and my craft, and that's just
- 26:08Speaker 1: not in comedy. Now my dramatic is on point, you
- 26:12Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like I feel like our best
- 26:14Speaker 1: years and even now Wayne's years, people need to laugh.
- 26:17Speaker 1: So that Wayne's brand. We're coming back with the comedy tour.

- 35:08Speaker 1: want to go get a lot of financing because I
- 35:10Speaker 1: just want to do weigh and stuff. And I don't
- 35:12Speaker 1: need nobody telling me, hey, we're ready for you to
- 35:15Speaker 1: do it. No, no, no, I know When something's ready,
- 35:17Speaker 1: I cook it myself. That's why I pay for my
- 35:19Speaker 1: own specials, not waiting on y'all to tell me I'm
- 35:21Speaker 1: ready or what your runway is. I'm ready. I'm gonna
- 35:24Speaker 1: put this special either way it goes now, I even
- 35:27Speaker 1: want to be a part of it. You don't, And
- 35:29Speaker 1: I don't need people giving me approval. I know when
- 35:32Speaker 1: something's ready. We had this thing growing up, weighing the
- 35:35Speaker 1: funniest sitcom and it was about our family growing up
- 35:39Speaker 1: in the projects. And everybody's like, well, they're not doing
- 35:42Speaker 1: sitcoms no more. And that's why I want to go finance,
- 35:45Speaker 1: because I'm like, I'm gonna do one hundred episodes and
- 35:48Speaker 1: I'm gonna find the platform for it. I don't want
- 35:50Speaker 1: to ask people questions no more about hey, can I
- 35:52Speaker 1: do this? No? No, no, But either you want to do
- 35:54Speaker 1: this cool? If not, I'm not waiting on you. But
- 35:57Speaker 1: a movie, a movie will be bad.
- 35:58Speaker 3: Just to see how.
- 36:01Speaker 1: Long and Gandhi, just to hear the old champs? How
- 36:04Speaker 1: many wings? Is is this us?
- 36:05Speaker 2: But I mean they hear the story smaller brothers and
- 36:08Speaker 2: everybody just how y'all did it? How y'all came from
- 36:11Speaker 2: growing up in a small house in Brooklyn and taking
- 36:13Speaker 2: it to where you guys at.
- 36:15Speaker 1: And all my ma hand people get mad, you.
- 36:20Speaker 2: Know, to to how you change the Super Bowl, Like
- 36:22Speaker 2: just all that in the film would just be amazing.
- 36:25Speaker 1: I think we will, and we're sniffing around it. We're
- 36:28Speaker 1: all talking about doing a lot of stuff, you know,
- 36:30Speaker 1: for everything from a book, because it's it's all right now.
- 36:33Speaker 1: It's all about the brand and the brand right, So,
- 36:36Speaker 1: you know, I think there's a book. I think there's
- 36:38Speaker 1: a doc. I think there's a biopic. I think we're
- 36:40Speaker 1: gonna put all that together in the next you know.
- 36:42Speaker 1: But it's hard to wrangle ten people. It's that's why
- 36:45Speaker 1: Earth Wind and Fire has never had an autobiography. Too
- 36:49Speaker 1: many niggas in the band. You got to get all
- 36:51Speaker 1: these different all these different rights, and you need this
- 36:55Speaker 1: person rights and the trumpet players rights and the sexophone player.
- 36:58Speaker 1: It's easy when you're act you know, it's like one person.
- 37:02Speaker 1: So I think we're all gonna collectivize and get this
- 37:05Speaker 1: done because the people need it and I want it
- 37:07Speaker 1: for the next generations coming up because it's a blueprint
- 37:10Speaker 1: for them. And I think I'm a sorry if my
- 37:14Speaker 1: brothers wanted to do I'm I'm already working on a
- 37:16Speaker 1: book for myself, but I think a collective family story
- 37:20Speaker 1: is something we gotta do.
