- 7:06You are not lying about life decided that life just took over where mother
- 7:12nature took left off. That's what life is like. Cool, y'all,
- 7:15y'all, good and frosted. Cool, let me come back when you resume
- 7:17my daily operations. Look here they they landed it heavenly. Everybody's tired and

- 7:36going on, Chloe? What's going on the bamas in the building, what's
- 7:43happening so other than that? Uh, my weekend has been nursing a chest
- 7:50cold. Woo and it doesn't sound like it. Apparently you lucked out.
- 7:57I don't last last gold I had. It's that my voice. I was
- 8:01like, like, I've taken no medicine none. I can't medicines stuff like
- 8:09night quill, anything like that. First off, that stuff doesn't work.
- 8:13Second, night quill would literally have my voice sounded like Mickey Mouse. The
- 8:18next day. I won't take it. There's something in it. There's something
- 8:24in it that restricts my voice. So I refused it. You must have
- 8:28your genies check, because night for me is like a good turkey sandwich.
- 8:33I'm out. Yeah. Maybe as as a maybe. When I was a
- 8:37lot younger, you know, teenage yeers fine, mm hmm an adult this
- 8:45voice it sounded like meat wild. I'm not meat wild all day. Nob's
- 9:00in the building. I see up and alert and staring at himself. Heard
- 9:07the call you watch this weekend? I know it was. It's been a
- 9:15couple of things we both watched. Oh good freaking grieve. I did catch
- 9:20up on he Man and Master and he may a revelation. Damn. Yeah,
- 9:26I'm not even mad. I'm not mad about that at all. When
- 9:28y'all said it was good, I was like, Okay, let me just
- 9:31put on the background, let me just get this mini bill together. And
- 9:35that bill didn't get done, so I was like, no, they didn't
- 9:39he up Did they just upgrade he Man? They upgraded he Man. There.
- 9:45If there's questions about a certain sibling that you wanted to know, they
- 9:48answered these there's going to be a third installment, so Kevin Smith, uh
- 9:56and friend of the show Mark Benardin, who actually has written on that ship.
- 10:00H that was I'm like, yo, this is this? Is it
- 10:05like this? Oh? Yeah, I'm not I'm not mad about that one.
- 10:09Between that and uh, what was the other thing? Was the other
- 10:11thing? I got stuck on uh the brother's son. Yes, yes,
- 10:20yes, he is. He still is. You know what, I don't
- 10:24even know what. I'm not even mad about it now now now, now,
- 10:26when I eat, now, I he just looks at me and goes,
- 10:30I'm gonna wait. He doesn't move, he just stares at him.
- 10:33I'm like, okay, here before we get it, before we get any
- 10:37further, because I want to be respectful of their time. We have the
- 10:41Cabo Flanor Merrit and Malik Williams who make a Blur campus here in the building
- 10:46to talk about Blur campus. What's going on for Leonora? All right about
- 10:54y'all. I'm doing good. I have my coffee to recharge after teaching,
- 11:01so I'm ready. Thank you for your service. Would I would hand you
- 11:09a shot if I knew what you drunk because said you're an educator. Just
- 11:15I say that all the time. I don't know how she does it,
- 11:18but but we commend, we commend those who look like us to be in
- 11:22those classrooms to give those things that no one else will give. I want
- 11:28to shout out, I want to say it's new age king on Ig.
- 11:31I have to look at this thing up his handle up, but he was
- 11:35teaching young black men how to fix cars, and me and Spartan were just
- 11:39talking about how these are vocations that they've taken out of schools disappeared. Yeah.
- 11:46Yeah, it's truly fascinating because the students I work with, we're in
- 11:52an age where they don't work for somebody else. They want to be entrepreneurs.
- 11:58I have, like you, young ladies that know how to do nails,
- 12:01hair, makeup, fashion, and then I have my team of photographers
- 12:07that are just building a portfolio and killing it. And that's like kind of
- 12:13the part of the reason why me and Malik work together to build Blurred Campus,
- 12:20just so that we can create a platform to help them become entrepreneurs.
- 12:26So talk to me more about Blurred Campus, because me and Malik had a
- 12:30discussion and chat and I like what's being built. Okay, So talk to
- 12:39me about blur Campus. You want to go flower me? Well, I
- 12:41think it should be you because it is your idea. Right, I just
- 12:46gave you, you know, the platform microphone. We did an interview and
- 12:52we immediately just just bonded. But this is Malik's brainchild for real. Yeah,
- 12:58we have the same goals though on sell yourself short because you want to
- 13:01see your students succeed. So that also kind of inspired me to come up
- 13:05with this basically social network in the sense of training people how to be influencers
- 13:11because instead of like knocking them down, it's like, oh, well,
- 13:13I want to do social media. You don't go, well, that's not
- 13:16a feasible career, do something else. No, you teach them what they
- 13:20need to do and what they need to know to be in these rooms that
- 13:22we need desperately people in these rooms. So inside of people shooting down creators
- 13:28and not teaching them that, hey, you need to go ahead and have
- 13:31a good market, you need to go ahead, you need to go ahead
- 13:33and do everything you need to go ahead and do to make yourself that next
- 13:37level latfl right, right. I think what they missed, and this is
- 13:43a lot of up and coming influencers or creators who want to use social media.
- 13:48Right, what a lot of them miss is its work. Whether you're
- 13:52going to be a creator, whether you're going to be an influencer, whether
- 13:56you're some kind of entrepreneur, it takes work. Social media is a tool
- 14:01if you use it correctly, right, And a lot of I think a
- 14:07lot of them missed that, Oh, if I make this one TikTok video
- 14:09out hit, No, that's that's not how it works. You gotta you
- 14:13gotta put it in some hustle, and a lot of them don't see that.
- 14:18And when I seen your makeup and everything that was going on, like
- 14:22Flow has writers, just like like they have writers for some of their blogs
- 14:28and everything, and it's just like this is these are tools to help them
- 14:33in the interview processes, to help them talk to people, to help them
- 14:37write articles. Because we've seen Spartan Tafari myself, We've seen some articles where
- 14:43we're just we just put our heads in our hand, and like from a
- 14:50journalism standpoint, I just get annoyed. It's like, did you even did
- 14:54you even double check before you put this out here? Like check us the
- 15:00double check, there's the spell check, and then it's just like the information
- 15:05is completely wrong, Like like what was it was someone who said they did
- 15:09an article on shows that have spin offs and they said that Laverne and Shirley
- 15:15was a spin off of Cheers or of Cheers, and I'm like, that
- 15:18is so far, so far from the truth. Search, I mean,
- 15:26thank you a simple Google search would have saw this entire bro It was like
- 15:31this, Like I went on a whole breakdown and like this is wrong,
- 15:37this is all wrong. We live in an age where it's all about getting
- 15:43that content out as quickly as possible, and a lot of people don't do
- 15:46their due diligence to make sure they fact check. Like even with me,
- 15:52I feel like there's sometimes I may miss something because from like an event and
- 15:56someone with d n me to make the correction. And I have no problem,
- 15:58you know, you know that simple. But some people are just not
- 16:03about that. They're just clicks and it's diminishing journalism. Yeah, and that's
- 16:11what I think. And I love about Flow because she takes journalism so serious.
- 16:17It's like her child, So she's not if she makes a mistakes,
- 16:21she's human. But I don't see any mistakes often that girl. You are
- 16:25an amazing journalist. Thank you, thank you. You are welcome. You
- 16:29deserve that. And that's the goal for us, you know, like whatever
- 16:34you want to do, it's not just influencers. Influencers and social media content
- 16:40creators, that's how we're going to raise the money, but we're also doing
- 16:41stuff behind the camera, like trying to do internships and trying to do programs
- 16:45and stuff like that too. So we're doing a little bit that we can
- 16:49now starting out so people can understand, Okay, this is not just people
- 16:53that just want to go around and make content. They want to make a
- 16:56difference while making Do you find it difficult finding those people who want to make
- 17:06that difference and willing to put in the work. Extremely It's kind of mixed
- 17:11for me because I'm tight with a lot of my students that require my journalism
- 17:17program and friendship this network. I'm like, we're still in a group chat
- 17:22together and given updates. And they as soon as I told them that I
- 17:26was doing my own publication, they were like, miss Mary, please let
- 17:30me have you on Please have you on your podcast, Like let me just
- 17:33work with you and da da da. They don't even care about the pay,
- 17:37which I'm just like astounded because I do want them to be rewarded for
- 17:41their hard work. This is very just a lot of but you, But
- 17:48you gotta love the fact that they're they're wanting. They're more eager than they
- 17:53are aware, if that makes sense. Like the whole idea is that's why
- 17:56I love when I, like I said, I love teaching, but I
- 18:02love the fact when it's like they want to learn more at the given time
- 18:06than what you're teaching. And it's like, oh, okay, it kind
- 18:10of throws you off. It threw me off the first time it happened to
- 18:12me, where it's like, oh, I want to learn more about computers
- 18:15and and how do you build them? How do you program them? And
- 18:18I'm like, I'm just going to replace a cable, but I could if
- 18:22you want to learn. But you but but but like I'm just saying,
- 18:26like you were saying, you you want to instill that. You want to
- 18:32instill the skill, cool, but you also want to instill the discipline behind
- 18:34it. It's like I can teach you, but you also have to you
- 18:37also have to develop these these ethics behind it. So therefore it's going to
- 18:42serve you in the long run. So I definitely get where you're coming from
- 18:45that. Oh yes, And first of all, just shout out to them,
- 18:49because it's like there's so many people that I reached out and they were
- 18:55mainly responsive and on board. So shout out to so many. It's like
- 19:00Michael brayln lache Tonay, Alex Tyler, Sae Kwon Marcel, Like, thank
- 19:08you guys so much for really being a part of this journey. I'm just
- 19:17just so astounded. And they're like really dedicated and talented like I wouldn't.
- 19:22It's just such a pleasure to really work with them. I've seen what they've
- 19:26done at a high school level, so I'm like on pens and needles to
- 19:32see what they come with as they're like going into college and majoring in business
- 19:37photography, media broadcasts, things like that, So shout out to them.
- 19:44I came from an age where we had mister Rogers, LaVar Burton, Bob
- 19:49Ross, you know, you know Miss Frizzle at the time, you know,
- 19:55and they like showing these things that people normally don't get to talk about,
- 20:00you know, going to the library, reading the books, you know,
- 20:04LeVar. Shout out to LeVar Burton because he's like read banned books,
- 20:07because they're banning books that talk about our history, you know. So shout
- 20:15out to people who are fighting the good fight and still putting in the work.
- 20:18So how does it feel knowing that you're you seem to step into that
- 20:25realm of teaching, Like it carries over very well in the blurred and nerd
- 20:33space very well, and entertainment space because people need to understand. Hence,
- 20:37hence that article I read, you need to learn to read. Reading is
- 20:44so fundamental. So how does it feel knowing that you have a you have
- 20:52a role in a lot of these kids' lives and they go on to do,
- 20:57Hey, I'm going to write this article or I'm going to become this
- 21:02influencer and be able to do this, because my goal to influence is to
- 21:07do XYZ. You know, it's not just to get myself inside of a
- 21:12cosplay magazine or an article. It's to get that brand. In perfect example,
- 21:18Hellspaw cosplay, He's been cosplaying for just a short amount of time,
- 21:22but with that short amount of time, all it took was one major cosplay
- 21:26to kind of put it over the top, and people really noticed that he
- 21:30used that platform to start blurring powerful, that power, and that platform is
- 21:34now putting eyes on black owned conventions and it's putting eyes on businesses that normally
- 21:41would not get seen. So when you have blurred campus doing the work,
- 21:48how does that guy, how does that make you to feel? Do you
- 21:52want to go First of all, yeah, it's very rewarding. It's funny
- 21:56that you brought up mis physical because that's actually my nickname to a lot the
- 22:00students, just because I learned from telling stories from watching Dave Chappelle's so I
- 22:06knew I had seen some stuff and I'm like, oh wait, that's I'm
- 22:08gonna use that. Yeah, but I have this similar esthetic. But it's
- 22:14just very gowarding and it makes me proud. Like at my at my high
- 22:18school, i'm day called Alumnadi where the alumni come back and actually have conversation
- 22:22for our students. And then when you hear a lot of their stories and
- 22:26what they're doing now, and they come back to you and like, I
- 22:30do this because of you. That is like here jerker, And it's just
- 22:37like it puts a battery in my back because a lot of times when you're
- 22:42in the think of it and you're dealing with like so many things as a
- 22:47teacher, it's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
- 22:51But when the alumni come back and tell you like how impactful you have been,
- 22:56it's just like, Okay, this is this is why I'm here.
- 23:00This is like the purpose, this is the mission, and it's like it's
- 23:04a great reminder. So now, you guys just started blurring campus this year,
- 23:11right this year? This year? Yea, what is the goal six
- 23:18months from now? Let's just throw a number out there. Six months from
- 23:19now, so to have influence at least be able to market themselves. I
- 23:25do clothing, so at least to have clothing lines come up with their own
- 23:29revenue stream so they're not left out in the water. Because I understand that
- 23:33you got to put the work in, but I also want them to see
- 23:34that vision at the end of the tunnel that Okay, hey, you have
- 23:38a clothing line already, you have a collection that I help you design.
- 23:41If you can go ahead and purchase, you have the right steps, you
- 23:45have the right tools. All I needed to do between now and those six
- 23:48months build community. That's our goal because I don't like social media in the
- 23:52sense of its being the be all end off. Social media is a valuable
- 23:57asset, but you would go fix a car with just a screwdriver. You
- 24:03need more tools in your resume, like community, marketing, ability, speaking
- 24:07ability. That's the one that kills me. People forget how to seek and
- 24:11read. I don't understand how that happens, but there's tools that they don't
- 24:17think they need because once the video goes viral, they're like, well I
- 24:19made it. I'm like, no, they don't know your name. They
- 24:22know you for I don't know, fall into hata flower or something. I
- 24:25don't know what they know you for. But like whatever, that one thing
- 24:27that they have you known for, that's what you're going to be to them.
- 24:30And you can't leverage that because more it's like a funny moment of mean
- 24:36TikTok. That's not leverage. That's hey, you're the cool guy in town
- 24:40for about like three weeks or something else, and you hit that. You
- 24:45hit that nail on the head right that far right there. It's like,
- 24:48once you go viral, then what Once you have that, once you have
- 24:51the spotlight, then what. I like the fact that you sat there and
- 24:53said, you want them to establish a media presence, you want them to
- 24:57establish their brand, you want to establish revenue. I'm like, dude,
- 25:03that right, all three, all three right there, not only not only
- 25:07for social media, but just for life in general. It's like you can
- 25:11navigate, you can navigate so many avenues if you have those tax in mind.
- 25:17That's why I was like I was over here because my son was straightening
- 25:19my mind. So I feels I was beauty. But at the same time,
- 25:22uh, that's that's exactly what I love. That should be taught because
- 25:26next generation actually catches onto that, we're good. That's like you're talking,
- 25:32folks. If the next generation catches off these next set of skills, we
- 25:34got nothing to worry about, Like, don't do don't do the next hot
- 25:40dance. It's not necessary the next hot dance before Fortnite gets it. I
- 25:55think what I enjoyed most about seeing things on social media is you have to
- 26:02play with this algorithm. It sucks. It sucks, but once you have
- 26:08an angle on it, say like you want to just know about comics.
- 26:14Might be an avid comic collector, and you might like hearing about certain books
- 26:18that just came out and they'd do breakdowns or whatever. You get enough of
- 26:22those, that's all you'll get, right, you know. And a lot
- 26:26of them don't understand. And I'll just use the clock app as that example.
- 26:30You know a lot of them don't understand. Oh man, they just
- 26:33scrolling scroll and screwing, oh Jamack and b making black oil okay, scroll,
- 26:37scroll, scroll oil, Pulley okay, scrolls And it gets boring gets
- 26:41tiring, and we're not in the age anymore of the pandemic, right,
- 26:48you know that that was two and a half almost three years of you're stuck
- 26:52indoors. What else do you do? Can't go anywhere, it can't really
- 26:56do with you. We're not in that age anymore. And so now out
- 27:00those who are trying to get on this train on social media, like the
- 27:07NPC thing drove me banan us. That was that was that was just a
- 27:11unsubtest waiting to happen money black people. I'm just not gonna click on why
- 27:17you do it? Subjects to it. I was just like, what are
- 27:22we gained from it? I know it's like it's funny, but it's just
- 27:27kind of meaningless, and like I know, there's like so many other content
- 27:33creators that actually talking about like real things, and just to kind of see
- 27:38that kind of overshadow everything was a bit disheartening. Yeah, and see flow
- 27:47comes in from the educational side. I come at it from a comedic side.
- 27:49I don't know what y'all were doing. Just then there's NPCs like do
- 27:52you really want to play the video game? As the NBC like, let
- 27:55me make a video game and then say you do only thing you can do
- 27:57with be the NBC, which I'll really no, y'all get bored, so
- 28:02like, why would you want MPC's in real life? It makes no sense
- 28:03to me. But then but then it goes back into the trend thing.
- 28:08It's like that's the reason why, you know, as Chris says, we
- 28:12have to learn how the algorithm works. I can't stand the algorithm because I
- 28:17think the algorithm is step is set between working and stupid, Like if it's
- 28:21twirking, it catches, if it's stupid, it catches. If it's a
- 28:26challenge of any sword, it catches. But say, for instance, if
- 28:30you decided that let me give you a one one on how to build yourself
- 28:33on social media platform, you might get the five people and then goes downhill
- 28:40and see, this is why I'm big on community, because trends die community
- 28:45last. So I don't like so I mean me and Flow was just talking
- 28:48about this yesterday. She was like, well, why don't you post more
- 28:52on the social media page that we have. I'm like Flow, the influencer's
- 28:55job was when they come on board to see how many people they can gauge
- 28:57in real life, and then I'm test them. Okay, how many of
- 29:00ares you can go ahead and get on this age go, I'll count it,
- 29:03and I'll be like, that's how much support you have on everything that
- 29:07you do. You need to go look at your numbers and look at your
- 29:10content and evaluate what you're doing. I think either you're very viral to a
- 29:14point where you're known around the community because you go out the cons, you
- 29:17go out to parties, cosplay you're familiar, or you're just sitting at the
- 29:19house making cosplays, doing makeup, not doing nothing, probably talking, doing
- 29:23dances. But it's not gonna get anywhere because you don't have the community behind
- 29:27you. You to be pretty as ever, but not even knows who you
- 29:30are. They ain't gonna care, They're gonna play up. That's part,
- 29:33and that part is the part I think a lot of that's the disconnect that
- 29:37they miss is that they're so used to being behind the keyboard that you realize
- 29:42you still have to get out in the world and make these real world connections
- 29:45because it's only so much you can do behind the keyboard. You can run
- 29:52the boards all day, but once you're done, you have to be able
- 29:56to go out, whether it's a con whether it's a function, whether is
- 30:00just a networking event, you know and talk to other people. And that's
- 30:04the key that they're missing, like you said, flow, is that it's
- 30:08the talking to people part and not knowing, Hey, I need to talk
- 30:12to some people who might be able to get me in other rooms that otherwise
- 30:17I couldn't reach in this area. Like if you're in a comic book convention,
- 30:22you can run into some artists, some other cosplayers, some workshop people
- 30:26of course, But if you went to a networking event, let's just say
- 30:30you go to a business networking event of any kind in your city, you
- 30:36might run into somebody who's in the same realm. But on the other end,
- 30:41they might be a banker, or they might do something that hey,
- 30:45I can help you flip this. I run a business, or I help
- 30:48this person run a business. So now you can transfer it, right,
- 30:52you can transfer that knowledge somewhere. It's a way to do it. So
- 30:56I think they miss that mark, They missed that connect this. It can't
- 31:03just be one thing. You have to learn to just cast the net,
- 31:07I guess you could say, and go from there and like yeah, and
- 31:12again that's why you said the whole meeting people in person. I'm gonna be
- 31:17honest, and I've really never told you this flow, but honestly, this
- 31:19will never happen without you. It would never because I would never have the
- 31:26same into it. You are a CEO and a teacher's body. So I
- 31:32am so proud to have her as my partner because she encapsulates all those things
- 31:37that you just said and maybe a million more times over. Yeah, I'm
- 31:41like, I'm a very like introverted person, but I've learned that it's always
- 31:48best. Like we didn't even meet like a networking man. We just met
- 31:51it like a plus ultra party. Yeah, just like bonding over an open
- 31:56bar and Ronnen and just started like just so you could say we ain't that
- 32:00Fama yet, getting drunk and ship eating ram Those the best ones, though,
- 32:07I don't see the problem. I know what the open bar was,
- 32:09okay, until I got there. I got one drink, Like you know
- 32:13you could get more than one, right, I'm like, really, I
- 32:22don't go to nice things like open bars, y'all. I'm sorry, I'm
- 32:24just smart, but you know I'm a tap big ghetto though I don't know
- 32:30what that is. You pay for everything, you just can't be going on
- 32:34stuff. See this is why when you watch those old nineties movies them act
- 32:38movies, and they say you have to go with the Yakamadol Klan over to
- 32:44the strip club. Why because we need this business deal. They want to
- 32:46make sure you are you ready to get loose and do business at the same
- 32:52time. And that is my job. I just meant, like so many
- 32:57interesting people just went out and like kind of mustering up the courage to be
- 33:02like, hey, would you like to do an interview with me? And
- 33:07you know, it's just blown up from there. So it's just for those
- 33:12because I worked with a lot of like introverted students, it's like it's okay,
- 33:15it's just like just the waters out. You never know who you can
- 33:20bump into. Like you said earlier, it's just it's a matter of just
- 33:23like putting yourself out there. I think, what And I'm glad we're touching
- 33:30on the introvert part because I started Blurred's Eye twenty twenty March of twenty twenty,
- 33:35which was the weekend the world shut down. Oh wow, yeah,
- 33:39and I was I was pressed at at the time. It was called wizard
- 33:44World Cleveland, and I was there's pressed and my goal was to talk to
- 33:52Phil Damar Tyler Hopeland, who we could never catch because he was always in
- 33:55a panel, and it was a couple other people but we spoke to and
- 34:00they was like, are you nervous. I'm like, I'm nervous. But
- 34:02if I don't get done, it ain't gonna get done, right. I'm
- 34:07like, I didn't just do it just just to look at it. I'm
- 34:09going to get this done. And then when a got it done, got
- 34:13the interview locked it in, I'm good, like because then after that,
- 34:15I'm just like everything else is a shoeing because if I went after the biggest
- 34:20target, everything else should just fall right in place. And it did,
- 34:25you know. And I know it's easy for me to say that, but
- 34:29I know there's a lot of people who are introverted, who don't have the
- 34:31talking skills or know how to spark up conversation or and I blame that on
- 34:37a lot of things. It's it's some people can be real mean and nasty,
- 34:45you know what I mean. So and they said, like, harder
- 34:47for people to go out there because, like I always say, the worst
- 34:50thing because I have my students go out and do interviews like in public,
- 34:52Like you could walk up to people and ask and like the worst thing they
- 34:55can do is just say no, and that's okay to move on. Have
- 35:00they got the run ins with some rude people? Yes? Have I had
- 35:05to calm them down so they don't have an average reaction to it. Yes,
- 35:09it is a value life skill to like to deal with rejection. But
- 35:15you have people as nice as like Phil Lamar, who is very approachable.
- 35:20I have my student interview him as well, and he was like so nice.
- 35:22You know, like he is this you know, icon and voice acting
- 35:28in the comedic world, but he is just like such a sweet person and
- 35:32that gives like a little bit more faith in humanity. I know that's kind
- 35:36of hard for like for us to like really grab because if we deal with
- 35:40the comment section, it's just like it's like, oh, you know,
- 35:45your faith dies a little bit, But when you actually go out and speak
- 35:49with people, it's just okay. You know. This is my advice to
- 35:54those who read the comments section and get a little with clemps. Just two
- 35:59ways you can do this. This is two ways you can address this.
- 36:01Now. I come from an era where we played the dozens, We talk
- 36:07ship with the best of them. Uh, so you would get either get
- 36:13into better words, which can be a bad thing because you have these people
- 36:16who hide behind the keyboard to be the tough guy, right, or you
- 36:22can just delete, delete. I need to find that John Witherspoon delete.
- 36:27I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell y'all one better how I deal with
- 36:30the common sension. I don't know, y'all wan with Cat Williams, like
- 36:32you know, the strong strain. He was like, you know, just
- 36:36them, that's how he lot them. Comments, the comments, I don't
- 36:38give a damn you don't. I mean, commas just mean that you're engaging.
- 36:46Comments mean that you're being seen. That's that's the That's the way I
- 36:51look at it. Like use and money, so later or never again.
- 36:57It's not I've walked away winter on. Uh start playing that tovin to go
- 37:02unfollowed me. Just you know, just you take your say in mind what
- 37:07you said. You don't have to be here. I'm like, I didn't
- 37:10dragon get head right. So you want to be able to get that get
- 37:15out there in six months and have that have that presence in in the in
- 37:20the in the community, because you guys are located in the d MV area.
- 37:24Correct, right, are we talking national now? Yeah, we've been
- 37:30talking national. Yeah, strategy. See, I like what me and Malik
- 37:35had spoke the other day. So like I'm not gonna say I'm just gonna
- 37:40go do it. I don't care. I'm figure how to do it,
- 37:44what I need to do it, and go ahead and do it thinking about
- 37:46it right, and it's very refreshing. I have attempted to work with other
- 37:52people that or at least have come to me with ideas and say like,
- 37:58oh you could do this is it's like okay, cool, I'm ready to
- 38:00go. Like as soon as you say, I have people that I know
- 38:04that really work with me to get this done and then just fall through or
- 38:07it never happens. So what I really appreciated about Molak is that as soon
- 38:12as he had the idea, we were already like talking back and forth to
- 38:16make it happen, even though I was out sick the worst timing, like
- 38:22I had called COVID and I was out for that like whole week, but
- 38:27I was still like trying to hang in there with the messages. It's like
- 38:30that's great. Yeah. So but like he was just on everything, like
- 38:36trying to find grant, still recruiting people, like really holding it down while
- 38:42I was like attempting to recover. So I again, I appreciate you like
- 38:47so much. Girl. You know, I gotta do this because this is
- 38:52this is needed. I even got merch on okay, you know the knock
- 38:57up already got my own merch Like I'm not here playing. I'm not here.
- 39:04No, we are not playing. I don't got time of that.
- 39:08So I like, I like you guys energy, I really do. And
- 39:14and Flow was giving me miss Janine vibes, Like that's what I said.
- 39:20She's given me Miss Janine vibe. Then I love it because you're doing something.
- 39:24This is why me and Spartan commended you on the on the job you
- 39:28have because it's you know, they talking about the soldiers. Don't get me
- 39:30wrong. My son was a soldiers or it was my daughter, but you
- 39:36guys are it is a position that is thankless. Being in education is a
- 39:45thankless job because you are molding minds and not to be and not to the
- 39:53standard of a school, but to be in the standard in community. You
- 40:00know, you're just trying to get people to build correctly. And to do
- 40:05things in the correct fashion, and to be kind and whatever the case may
- 40:08be, and not be a dick, as a spartan normally says, you
- 40:13know that way, you don't that way. You don't incur these problems in
- 40:19adulthood. So you're dealing with something. But you guys are doing something amazing.
- 40:28They can be found at uh Blurred Underscore Campus on I g mm hm,
- 40:35sign up. I'll be posting. I'll be posting up their uh,
- 40:38their flyer that they're looking for more influencers and more people. Uh. And
- 40:45Neon the War Vibes is yours, Flow, Malik Williams, It's yours.
- 40:52And this here's the crazy thing. I didn't know Flow's name. I just
- 40:55knew where it's Neon war Neon Vibes, and I just like, oh,
- 41:00that's miss Frizzle. Cool. So when I seen the sign up and I'm
- 41:06like, well, who's Flowingora, I'm like, I don't know who that
- 41:07is. You know, we're gonna make you some miss Frizzled shirts. Flow,
- 41:13That's the thing. Yeah, I do like the blend of Miss Frizzle
- 41:16And thank you so much. I enjoyed that nickname so much, even when
- 41:23I took my students the awesome plan. I even dressed this her, so
- 41:28I have the cosplays like I really took that monitor into the heart. And
- 41:34again it's just like just actually it's another funny thing. On an episode of
- 41:37Miss Frizzle, they do like a news broadcast and it's called which is the
- 41:45same moniker as our journalism program Network, And I thought that was like,
- 41:50Okay, this is kids, if it's if it's Yeah, but the Black
- 41:55Miss, the Black Miss Frizzle just just fits so nicely as a as a
- 42:00as a title for you, honestly, because I was like, I didn't
- 42:05stop now not seeing that. Yeah, because we even talked about it.
- 42:08I was like, if I was anybody from I'll be able. I don't
- 42:12know what I was, so I'm definitely Gregory. Oh my god. No,
- 42:21it just dawned on me that Miss Janine Tiggs is the Black Misfrizzle.
- 42:27She's just in the Phillies, she says, in the Philadelphia school system that's
- 42:32got a bushyet she's just trying to get it. And that's like that.
- 42:36I appreciate it so much because it shows like the passion educators have, even
- 42:42though we may not always have the resources to do it mm hmm. And
- 42:45that is like, that's the biggest spruggle. You know. We have a
- 42:52lot of talented scholars, and we have like these big plans and ambitions,
- 42:57and it's like you really have to be you needed to and like fool be
- 43:01sources out of nowhere to make things happen. So that's why I really do
- 43:07appreciate that show. But I can say one thing about her though, that
- 43:10she's not like Janine. She is cultured in the culture. Okay, so
- 43:15she is, because he was talking about the Megan Nikki stuff. She is
- 43:17cultured. She got us. She surprised me. I'm like, girl,
- 43:22you might look like Janine, but you got culture. You know what you're
- 43:24talking about. Yeah, it else to have a lot of culture. Exactly.
- 43:30I love Janine, But Janine a little you know, a little list
- 43:34is a seasoning. I mean, look at her. You said, you
- 43:39said she didn't cook the greens didn't cook long enough. It's just now exactly
- 43:46been the seasoning or nothing. Just put it on the plane, not not
- 43:51not unwashed greensshed Yeah, unwashed greens. It's given unwashed greens energy, but
- 43:59no very hip. So, like I said, she a cool teacher.
- 44:02Yeah, yeah, we definitely need more. We do always stress that we're
- 44:09gonna take a break and we're gonna come back. We're gonna talk about the
- 44:12news. Can you guys stick around for a minute. Yeah, a look
- 44:17at that? Look look at god? Uh you said you low staff,
- 44:22So right now I substitute. Yeah right, my look my second in command,
- 44:31she's she's studying, getting rest and everything else. She was like,
- 44:35hey, don't get too happy now, we'll be right back, all right.

- 46:52I'm like, so I'm buying that off of you. Ah, pretty
- 46:57much. I'ma start making him in house. In house usually produce her.
- 47:00At this point, got a little bit of news, so let's talk about
- 47:06it. So James Gunn has revealed himself that we have a new Supergirl and
- 47:22Millie Alcock, who was last seen on the House of a Dragon as a
- 47:25young Targearian Ah the other actress who was actually up for the role. I
- 47:31thought she would have gotten it because she does the voice of Supergirl in the
- 47:36Justice League Crisis on Infinite Earth. I we we all thought it. The
- 47:42crew actually thought it. We're like, oh, okay, that should be
- 47:45a shoe. Wait, it's not a shoe win what I thought? You
- 47:50stretch over? I mean, I'm letting them cook. I'm letting them cook.
- 47:57I mean, I mean. Gun hasn't done anything crazy. He is
- 48:00notne anything that makes us question stuff. Yet. No, No, he
- 48:06is the most mild move honestly from casting standpoint. I'm surprised. I'm just
- 48:12hearing of the news. Yeah, it's it's it's he he has a plan.
- 48:16He had he had a picture of his storyboards with looks which looks like
- 48:22two long boxes full of comics. I'm like, okay, he's got a
- 48:24plan lift this man. Just let him go in the kitchen. You know,
- 48:28your mama go in the kitchen and you keep asking her is it done
- 48:31yet. I'm not gonna mess with it, man. I'm gonna let that
- 48:35man cook. I'm gonna let that man do what he gotta do in the
- 48:37kitchen, right. I mean, I would just say. As soon as
- 48:42he said that he was going to partner with the animators and have a connect
- 48:47with the movies, I was like, finally, I'm going to trust his
- 48:52judgment. He has done excellent work with Gardens. I think the Suicide Squad
- 49:00equal well received. So I see, just like you said, let him,
- 49:07just let him be, trust the process. And I think the other
- 49:12thing is he didn't do the Justice League Prisons of Infinite Art the cartoon,
- 49:16so that's like before him and I get it. I get it. You
- 49:20know whatever he's gonna come out with, that's you know. I got a
- 49:25question for y'all, honestly, let's answer. Honestly, do you think James
- 49:30Gun can make a good Superman movie? Because it's not an ensemble movie.
- 49:34All movies are an ensemble movie that are really really good. I just think
- 49:37Superman as a character to me. It's kind of bland. So it's kind
- 49:42of a challenge already when you start, because it's kind of unrelatable. I
- 49:45mean, like, I just don't relate to Superman anything, And I think,
- 49:49yeah, I think that's what it is that he does so well is
- 49:52he makes them. He makes his characters related relatable. Like nobody was looking
- 49:58for Guardians of the Gallay, no one, and how big of a fan
- 50:01you where no one was looking for those that crew When he was done with
- 50:06that crew, everybody was looking for Guardians everybody. Everybody can relate to Drags
- 50:13or you could relate to Rocket and like, like you said, they're all
- 50:16relatable characters. And I get the whole thing on Superman. I'm a I'm
- 50:19a Superman fan, so it's kind of hard to get others to understand why
- 50:22I like it so much. But you hit nail on the head. You
- 50:27can't relate to it. You can't relate to a guy who's op right arm.
- 50:34You know, it does a job, which I get it. So
- 50:37this is why I say I think Gun's gonna take a difference twist with Superman
- 50:39legacy because he's not gonna start Origin, which is where everybody it's a it's
- 50:46a double edged swore. When you do an origin story like it, it
- 50:50could be good, it can be horrible, but I think that it can.
- 50:57Look at Zack Snyder can be good and horrible. But if you started
- 51:00a point to where you don't make the character the main focus, but you
- 51:05make a supporting cast around in the main focus and actually give it a good
- 51:08story, that's when you have something. I mean, look at this,
- 51:13I mean, like like what I said, look at the suicide Squad.
- 51:15We were all we were so focused on uh blood sport yourself as character,
- 51:22and yet you still had you still had Peacemaker, you still had Koka dot
- 51:27Man, you still had Harley Quinn. Although Harley Quinn wasn't the main character.
- 51:31Everybody a role, So I think that's right. Oh no, I
- 51:37was just thinking because again with James Gunn, he does take obscure characters and
- 51:43give them personalities. But supper Man is like the most non obscure character that
- 51:47he's worked with. So I want to see what direction he goes in with
- 51:51that, because this is your first real big guy that you got. Like
- 51:55you said, nobody's looking for the Guardians, nobody was looking forward to Suicide
- 51:59Squad because I love the original movie. People hated the original movie, so
- 52:02it's like, what do you do to change up Superman in twenty twenty four
- 52:07to not the only making relatable but interesting entertaining because I just think you can't
- 52:12just stick Supergirl and a dog and everybody there and make the movie good.
- 52:15They're gonna have to do something different to get out because DC has lost loyalty
- 52:20with most of the consumer mase oh, they that loyalty was burned new then
- 52:25a word was preached, a word was preached, I swear the only reason
- 52:31and I didn't even go see Aquaman too, But the only reason why Aquaman
- 52:36two did as well as it did is Jason Momoa. Right, you have
- 52:42the charism, you have the charismatic person behind it. So yeah, it's
- 52:46gonna draw it's gonna draw people in. But other than that, people were
- 52:50just like, this universe is dead, Like right, I was right,
- 52:53It's like his universe is, but we'll see it because he's fun to watch,
- 52:58you know, So there's that. I'm on Lobo. Yeah, Look,
- 53:04every time he's on the phone, he's like, he's the cheese eating
- 53:07grin he has. He was just like Oh, I'm like, dude,
- 53:10it's Lobo. If it's not Lobo, I would be so pissed, Like
- 53:15he, I mean, when you cheasing that I got some good news today
- 53:19from God. I'm like, just just say you Lobo, just just say
- 53:22I mean he said it. He said it years ago when he went trying
- 53:27out, you know, he figured, okay, he's trying out for Justice
- 53:30League. He figured he was gonna play Lobo. He like, who's gonna
- 53:32go up against Superman? And they said, oh no, you're aqua Man.
- 53:37He was like what but he kind of had to understand why he had
- 53:44Yeah, it gives awa. Yeah, he really he went with it.
- 53:51But he was just like, you can see the wheels turning. He was
- 53:53just like, if it was me that that wouldn't. That wasn't the pick
- 54:01I was going with. But okay, Lord of the Seas, which so
- 54:08uh, but yeah, there's that. So Milly not a bad pick.
- 54:13Not a bad pick. I just like to see. He's a great actress.
- 54:15Oh, put that on record. He's a great actress. I'm just
- 54:19more scared of the movie over Wall because it's the DC movie and James Gunn's
- 54:22first big project. This ship flops one of one of the things that they're
- 54:27looking at, and he's kind of had this. He kind of had the
- 54:30same deal with with Marvel. He's running it, he's running the ship.
- 54:35He's looking at Warner Brothers saying you don't touch He put the line down like
- 54:40this you want me, you don't touch nothing, and letting me do my
- 54:46thing. He's like, well, we need no, I don't care what
- 54:50you need. The people need something, and I need to make sure it's
- 54:53done right because I've seen what you've done and it never turned it's out well.
- 55:00And I think he's afeasing like he's some people in the house like she
- 55:04was from the Game of Thrown spin off, so you're not gonna have to
- 55:07hater her in and that kind of sloos her to come over. She's already
- 55:10with. I mean even I can't remember the actor's name who's actually playing Superman,
- 55:15but people were teasing him saying, oh, he's Henry Caville White and
- 55:19blah blah blah, and I'm like, number one, This dude's tall,
- 55:22right, he's tall. He's like six or four. He's taller than Caville
- 55:25Two. People just like, oh, he looks scrunny and I'm like,
- 55:29trust me, they're gonna throw like twenty thirty pounds of muscle on this dude,
- 55:31right yeah, Like they already got him in the gym, Like they
- 55:37showed a shot where he was in the gym. I'm like, he's fine,
- 55:42he's like his dude, he's gonna be beast. It's it's okay.
- 55:45So once again, let that man cook that right, cook right uh over
- 55:52in Marvel it's rumor right now, but John David Washington is being eyed for
- 55:59cam hm hmmm, I'm still on the fence and talked about this. Yeah,
- 56:06I was. I was gonna make confused when they talked about recasting because
- 56:09if you saw a Loki season two I thought they just like ended his art.
- 56:15It's a it's a here's the thing. I watching Loki season two and
- 56:21knowing everything that they've been doing so far. We but we all said it.
- 56:25We said, it's a good way to kind of peter it out.
- 56:30You know, if if if you don't go Forwarward King, it's fine because
- 56:34Loki pretty much softly. Yeah, if you do go forward with it,
- 56:37because you have something major in in play, who do you put in that
- 56:42place? Since the system Jack my guy, but it's what do you do?
- 56:50And now you know, Call Domingo's name has been brought up. John
- 56:52Boyega's name was brought up. John Boyeger said, no, I don't don't
- 56:57sound cool. I'm gonna tell you right now. He lost my audition tape.
- 57:00I said that to Marrow. I don't know what happened to that.
- 57:05I don't know. I said, well, Jonathan mas w and I could
- 57:07take the place. Lets me be k Steve Denzel Washington's son as King.
- 57:15I'm not saying it's not beyond his level of ability, but as far as
- 57:21everybody else thinking, can't they're gonna scraped King. No, they've got too
- 57:24much invested in the MCU at this point because he's interest like five different movies
- 57:30and possibly a television show. They didn't actually say whether or not it was
- 57:34gonna happen, but it's possible he might pop up in a MCU show.
- 57:37I mean, they could have used the recipe like they did with Dannos and
- 57:42just kind of sprinkled here and there and not. You know, I mean,
- 57:45it was fine what they did with Loki. Loki was actually doing their
- 57:49own thing. You know. They were like, we'll sprinkle a little bit.
- 57:52Yeah, they kind of get a tease going, but like to putting
- 57:55like an ant man, I'm like that they just you could have sprinkled that
- 58:01one. Yeah. You know, they try to argue about quantum well and
- 58:05different rules, and I'm like, y'all know, yeah, I said they
- 58:10should have brought back Terrence Howard. I would have loved Terrence Howards. Now,
- 58:20uh, speaking of a multiverse. They have been talking, you know,
- 58:23they's the synopsis for Deadpool three has already dropped, and it's just like
- 58:29we thought, they're just dead Pools getting ready to change, right, Deadpool
- 58:36kills himself like the writing was on the wall. It's just kind of like,
- 58:39we're here for it. We just want to see the andics in real
- 58:45time. That's it. All I can say is enter every twenty first century
- 58:49Fox jokes that you can think of. Yeah, I mean every joke will
- 58:54be brown. If the joke of him finally seeing all the X Men and
- 59:00they show up and he says, oh, finally, he looks at the
- 59:05camera, Oh finally, now you guys have oh wait, no, that
- 59:07was a different studio. That's why I can show up. Now I'm going
- 59:12I'll be messed up. What if it was Patrick Stewart's professor X and not
- 59:15James Oh Jess McVoy, Yeah, JS, why is why is the old
- 59:22guy here? Did we not? We not go far back enough? It's
- 59:25like you have Eric as a Deadpool fan. I am looking forward to this
- 59:34movie like I was paying a dead Pool before Deadpool. With that Pool.
- 59:37I'm talking about like old school like death Stroke, Deadpool, that Pool.
- 59:42So this movie is something I'm extremely waiting on. The only thing is do
- 59:46they put in storm? Do they calling halle Berry? You apparently a lot
- 59:54of people coming back, but look at it as a one movie cameo.
- 59:58They are anybody. Nobody has a permanent job outside this movie, outside the
- 1:00:02people in the picture of that picture. But like this, if you Jackman
- 1:00:06is saying I'm coming back, and that is it? Did nobody else got
- 1:00:10a job? Is Ryan Reynolds? Ryan Reynolds was Deadpool. I gotta find
- 1:00:20out the age of Ryan Reynolds and when Deadpool was created, because like Ryan
- 1:00:22Reynolds has been Deadpool all his career. Yeah, it was just the perfect
- 1:00:29fit. I really can't picture anybody else doing a lot. No, not
- 1:00:35to that, I can't just because of his because he basically embodies the character.
- 1:00:40It's halready, find something else that can do that. Yeah, I
- 1:00:44mean when they did when they did Wolverine Origins. He's been on the record
- 1:00:47of stating, like the stuff he wanted to do as Wade Wilson, they
- 1:00:52were just like no, and I'm like, but it's Wilson, wouldn't yet,
- 1:00:58but yet you decide to give us a sewed up Deadpool with the clause
- 1:01:04it's like, I will your tea on that, Moe. That's what I
- 1:01:07want to look. I just want to look at who when I was.
- 1:01:08If I was on the set of when that happened, it's like, okay,
- 1:01:12guys, here's Wade Wilson. I would look over like who was the
- 1:01:15who was the research on this? Because you should be fired? Hints hints
- 1:01:21him doing the test footage and then leaking it. And to this day,
- 1:01:27I salute you, good sir. Again, We'll wait again. We're waiting
- 1:01:30for back Girl be released, for the vaults coming out coming out. Look.
- 1:01:40So it's it's somewhere because I'm started hitting these conventions and going to the
- 1:01:45places where they said, hey, get your get your Blu rays, here
- 1:01:47your DVDs, pilots and shows that didn't get the air, And you said,
- 1:01:52you said movies and shows that didn't get the air. I will take
- 1:01:54it. I'll take what you got. We said on this we said on
- 1:01:59this show. All it takes is thirty seconds, thirty seconds book clip.
- 1:02:05Whoever, whoever at Warner Brothers Studios is willing to risk it. I'm pretty
- 1:02:08sure. I'm pretty sure the worst you're gonna be seeing is possible jail time.
- 1:02:12But all it takes is thirty seconds for that cup to get out there,
- 1:02:15And all of a sudden, you have a choice for one of your
- 1:02:16brothers. You can show us the rest or you can just acknowledge that it
- 1:02:21existed. You don't care about your fans, but you know there was,
- 1:02:23Like you got this Snyder cut. That's all you're getting. Do not ask
- 1:02:27us for nothing else. You got to blame it, that's all you want.
- 1:02:35I hate I blame Snyder fans so much for the Snider cuts, Like
- 1:02:38it would be so much better if we had the full cut. You got
- 1:02:42the full four hours. You got the got the full four hours, and
- 1:02:47there was just some there were some nice moments in those four hours. Cyborg
- 1:02:52story, for example, I can appreciate that part of it. But in
- 1:02:57the Amazon scenes, but the Marsians, Manhunter shows up at the end like
- 1:03:00a lad ass pizza. You had John Stewart filming scenes and Wayne T.
- 1:03:09Carr that was the that's the actor's name film Green Lantern scenes, and you
- 1:03:15replaced it with Martian Manhunter, who helped me because he couldn't clock out of
- 1:03:23work yet who couldn't Who did you join until all? Until the threat was
- 1:03:29eliminade? That's all. I was like, you were here the whole This
- 1:03:35is how bad it was. I I've actually really looked at over again because
- 1:03:38the general he plays and I'm like, wait a minute, so he was
- 1:03:43here the whole time. But then I seen Man of Steel like on T
- 1:03:45and T or something and the General was in it, and I'm like,
- 1:03:47the general has a totally different name. Yeah, I'm like, that's lazy.
- 1:03:53Oh you know, DC is not for continuity. That does not stay
- 1:03:58for connuity comics. I was gonna say this crap. Uh. I feel
- 1:04:03like Snyder did that film with a chip on his shoulder because Warner Brothers they
- 1:04:11it's it's unfortunate what happened because his kid had alive himself at that time,
- 1:04:16but my brothers was going to fire him anyway. Kids brings. They just
- 1:04:23brought that in as like we use that as the excuse he's got to leave
- 1:04:28for family. Right. You do realize this made it on the internet.
- 1:04:31Right? Mm hmmm. That ship's forever the Bagl movie. You need you
- 1:04:38need a distraction for Suicide Squad the game. Oh, please don't say anything
- 1:04:44yet. I ain't got that because they've been that for it's out and I'm
- 1:04:50just going to say, it's not even so much that they what they did
- 1:04:54with the game. It's it's very anti climactic and and we may have beaten
- 1:05:01Dragonball Evolution for stealing from everything, but the damn sword. Like I will
- 1:05:08say, like I watched one of the Green Lantern parts and I'm like,
- 1:05:10so that just we just threw all of that out the window. So,
- 1:05:14I mean, I got a question though, in theory, right, how
- 1:05:16am I supposed to believe that these people can beat the Justice League? That
- 1:05:20they can't be on a daily basis and somehow like they get something to beat
- 1:05:26them is ridiculous, That's all. I was skeptical about the game. I'm
- 1:05:28like, what apparently control that makes them not themselves. But that's kind of
- 1:05:34what pisses me off about some of the scenes is like comics movies, it's
- 1:05:39usually like, oh, there's a little bit of them in there. Absolutely
- 1:05:42nothing it is, but wasn't easy for them to always break out a brain
- 1:05:45ass control. So well, now all of a sudden, what's the difficult
- 1:05:47points. Well, welcome to bad story, right, welcome to welcome to
- 1:05:54this crap. Uh, it was just squash game. So that I'll put
- 1:06:01to you this way. When the game was when the game was put online
- 1:06:04two hours later, it was taken offline for three hours. Oh my god.
- 1:06:10That was for the people who made extra for early access. And that's
- 1:06:15and that's that's the early access people got denied. And they're not giving refunds
- 1:06:20back. Oh the word, the word the worst. They're not giving refunds
- 1:06:29for what happened. They're like, crap, happens is the Arkham game.
- 1:06:36Like, don't suck up the phone. Look see this game. This undoes
- 1:06:41the Arkham games. That's the worst part. Yeah, yeah, this is
- 1:06:45after this is in the arca verse. It's post when you see that,
- 1:06:51when you see the other main characters, it's like, yo, that was
- 1:06:55anti climactic. Then when you get the Batman stuff, you're just like,
- 1:07:00Okay, why do we make that dramatic? But everyone else is just like,
- 1:07:02and here's the here's the sad part. God, this this was Kevin
- 1:07:08conn I will say that's the most disappointing part. And I will say,
- 1:07:17who plays Harley Quinn in this in this game? I wasn't gonna say Tara
- 1:07:21Strong, but I'd be wrong. I think it's not ar Lean past No,
- 1:07:27yeah, whoever's playing her. I feel like they snuck in a line
- 1:07:30that was at least somewhat poetic that made it not so terrible. But it
- 1:07:36is kind of gross. So people are using that like, oh, this
- 1:07:39is Kevin connra I'm like, they didn't know that he was gonna pass.
- 1:07:41But yes, it's it is a thing to end on. I will say
- 1:07:45that it is and talk about throwing away the mechanics of your Arkham series.
- 1:07:48Oh what's Tara Strong? Oh damn it. I fel like I feel like
- 1:07:54Tara worked in a line when she had to confront Bruce that was like a
- 1:07:59poetic send off. Yeah, but again, they didn't know Kevin conr was
- 1:08:02gonna die. It's just unfortunate. It's just it's and basically do what they
- 1:08:11did in the story. It was like, so he just erased all of
- 1:08:14that. Just play Spider Man two again. It just play. If I
- 1:08:18can get a game plus on release and not make it DALC, that'd be
- 1:08:21great. Yeah. If James Gunn could rescue the game greatly appreciated. He's
- 1:08:30not a video game development though, that's the problem. He a movie guy.
- 1:08:32But you could just have everything connected from the movies, the animation and
- 1:08:40the game. I think like everything would be sound. I think I think
- 1:08:47I think he can. I think he can go in there and say,
- 1:08:49you know what, I'm gonna slide this storyboard right under the door. No
- 1:08:55one's gonna know it was me, And I don't want the credit. I
- 1:08:59just when it fixed. All I'm saying is sent them off. The studios
- 1:09:02is open. You know, they're taking a break from God to War.
- 1:09:05So it's like you have an opportunity. Yeah, so it's crazy. We
- 1:09:13got two trailers. Oh we got two trailers? Uh then do I did?
- 1:09:20I'm sorry. Our first one is Ghostbusters Frozen Empire. Okay, and
- 1:09:29here we go. We're gonna need all the help we can get Paul Dark
- 1:09:32and Horny at twelve o'clock. I've been waiting forty years for this. They
- 1:09:42called themselves ghostbusters. According to these hacks, they saved the world. No
- 1:09:46why witnesses and who is found to carry the torch? Descendants of Egon Spending.
- 1:09:57You have a minor hanging out the side of a moving vehicle firing a
- 1:10:00laser gun into scriminately that I've finished, overruled, sustained. Thank you did
- 1:10:14the word guy buy strangel? Thanks correct on both counts. Buddy, you
- 1:10:18just hit the jackpone. What is it? Better? Question is what's inside
- 1:10:25of it? The parables flop an unimaginable evil demanding an army of ghosts with
- 1:10:39the power to feel my fear itself, like literally scared to death. We
- 1:10:47might be looking at a second ice age. We're gonna need all the help
- 1:10:53we can get. Let's get to work. Can I be of any help?
- 1:10:59Mel in uniform? Yeah, if there's something strange, if there's something
- 1:11:11weird, what are people gonna call golf busters? What do you want?
- 1:11:17Math? The Goosbusters? Can I tell you something else? Buster makes me
- 1:11:23feel good? It makes me feel good. That's us all Dark and horny
- 1:11:35at twelve o'clock. Oh h, that's right around the corner. It's March
- 1:12:04twenty second. Uh. The more I see, the more I see about
- 1:12:08this movie, the better I feel that it's gonna be. It's it's fine.
- 1:12:13Yeah, I just worked one requirement. One requirement. I do not
- 1:12:19need a rat version of the Ghost to Us theme song. Please don't give
- 1:12:24me like doing the like. Give me like at least an R and B
- 1:12:29singer. Give me somebody. You know what I was, Yeah, that
- 1:12:32that jackass Walter Pack is Backe. I would be mad if I would be
- 1:12:38mad at Metro Boom and did something if it was Metro. I'm cool.
- 1:12:42I'm cool, but everybody else, No, No, it's for the minute
- 1:12:46I see. I heard that voice, and I'm like, don't tell me
- 1:12:49they got that jack ass back. I just need to see him. It's
- 1:12:54from the E p A. He's always trying to get you in trouble.
- 1:12:57I just need to see him and Bill Murray need each other. It's like,
- 1:13:00I just want to see we're Uh. I can just see that.
- 1:13:06It's just it just amazes me how Ernest looks great. Yes, it's just
- 1:13:15like Patrick Gray. That's he looks the same. Look my wife, he's
- 1:13:19she watches What the Family Business and and I'm like, check out Ernie killing.
- 1:13:26Yeah, still through this thing, but so yeah, I'm looking forward
- 1:13:30to that one. That looks like a lot of fun. And the last
- 1:13:32one was a lot of fun. So yeah, you know, it was
- 1:13:36very the way they ended it was very heart invest I need I needed EO,
- 1:13:44I need want to get upgrade. I'm like, come on, I
- 1:13:45even run that same transmission engine for forty years. That joined is still long
- 1:13:51time on team. Come on, like what trouspect? Since that all my
- 1:13:58trust? That was a hot and I love every woman in that movie.
- 1:14:03You don't like and that's the threat. The crazy thing about that version is
- 1:14:08the cast was great, was amazing. Was the story. I felt so
- 1:14:15betrayed because I defended them on social media every time until the movie came out.
- 1:14:19I'm like, just give it a chance. Let these girls go.
- 1:14:21It's how to be good. And then I wanted theater. I'm like,
- 1:14:24y'all shot the best. I think they I think they got restricted. I
- 1:14:28think they were because those women worked on Saturday Night Live, right, So
- 1:14:34I'm like, there's no way this should have failed. Like the part is
- 1:14:40that you mentioned. Leslie Jones was on an interview and she sat there and
- 1:14:44said, like, we want a lot of the uh, ad libbing and
- 1:14:48improv that they were doing was great, but they were told they wouldn't use
- 1:14:53in the movie because the day the stick to the story. I'm like,
- 1:14:56you have four SNL casts, four people have been on SNL, all done
- 1:15:00improv, all of the ad livings, and you restrict them. Why would
- 1:15:04you cast them? Then? Right, damn it, damn there was right
- 1:15:10in itself. I'm like, it's here, it's it's it's here. Yeah,
- 1:15:15but Instagram models, you'll want a solo. You changed a lot of
- 1:15:19the story, Like Ernie Hudson was in that one, but he didn't play
- 1:15:23the same character. And I'm like, see, you could have been this
- 1:15:26could have been your continuance. You dropped that ball. I see one of
- 1:15:30them be in this movie though you want of them the chance. I don't
- 1:15:35care which one it is. I don't care which one it is because,
- 1:15:42like I said, watching I've watched, I always say Melissa McCarthy is like
- 1:15:46an honorary member of that crew. That's because every time she showed up and
- 1:15:51showed out. I'm like, you couldn't tell me she didn't apply to work
- 1:15:56on this show. It got turned down right outstanding, Like I can watch
- 1:16:04skits from her and it's just like she's making she's making the cast break.
- 1:16:10So she hosts then snl if it's in like a glove. She didn't seem
- 1:16:15like a host. I'm just I'm just here. If she's the cousin.
- 1:16:18She come to visit, like come to visit, so it's stuff like that,
- 1:16:24and I'm like, oh, look they didn't they didn't. They failed.
- 1:16:28They failed these women. They failed these women because it wasn't the it
- 1:16:30wasn't the movie. It wasn't them, it wasn't the acting it was it
- 1:16:34was it was the storyline. They messed them up. You restricted them.
- 1:16:38So however, in Frozen Empire, if I don't get one Vegle reference on
- 1:16:41me, mad, I want to see that dude, old boy Manter come
- 1:16:45back. It's like, it's bad. Is it bad that I seen Bill
- 1:16:50Murray And when he's seen Janine and outfit what he said, I was already
- 1:16:56thinking, I'm like, oh it's mel Vincent uniform. Of course you wouldn't
- 1:17:00know how to use these things. She's around them all the time pretty much.
- 1:17:04So, uh, we got another trailer. It's despicable me for I
- 1:17:10have not watched this one either, so check this out. Mm hmmmy,
- 1:17:27what a minute? Three girls? One wise, something is busy. There's
- 1:17:35my boy. I know you love your what's it? He loves you?
- 1:17:46He just he just doesn't show it on his face or with his language.
- 1:17:56Group. I need to work with you happily as lives are at the state
- 1:18:00what Maximer Ball has escaped from prison. I'm coming for my revenge group.
- 1:18:10We have to get to the safehouse. Has say this way. Look how
- 1:18:25the most important part of it is being aware of potential danger. I tried
- 1:18:33to myself. You no what com intrude? Thanks? Still all all petty?
- 1:19:44This is all petty all day? Uh? Is it me? Or
- 1:19:47does Crew Junior look like Jack Jack from the Honeymager? Oh my god.
- 1:19:59I need to see that team up. That would be interesting. He's Jack
- 1:20:02Jack and Grew Junior. He's still looking for Raccoon. A million ideas they
- 1:20:10could make and they don't prove me wrong. You know what's crazy though thinking
- 1:20:15about it. In the last ten years, Illumination and dream Works has definitely
- 1:20:19crust Disney and everything that they've done, which is shocking. They tell the
- 1:20:25good stories, right, my little siblings. I Illumination has all my money.
- 1:20:30Between the Mario movie and the franchise, they have them on a choke
- 1:20:38hold. I mean when you when you look at movies like The Incredibles,
- 1:20:41which was done by Pixar. Yeah, and it's still to this day.
- 1:20:45It's a great film. It's a great film, like it hits all the
- 1:20:49notes right, and the second one it doesn't hit just as hard, but
- 1:20:55it still hits. And see I was scared to watch the second one.
- 1:20:58I didn't. I've never watched the second one just because I wanted the first
- 1:21:01one to be so here. That's how good that movie was. Yeah,
- 1:21:03it's one of those things. I mean still when you have that moment where
- 1:21:08in the first one where mister Incredible is fighting tooth and nail with his wife
- 1:21:14saying I'll take care of it. I'll take care of it, and he
- 1:21:16breaks and says because I'm going I'm scared to lose you again, and I'm
- 1:21:21like, Nikka, I'm in the wrong movie, man. But that detail
- 1:21:30is so good in that movie too, because even when Alasta girl tries to
- 1:21:33paunch mirage. She was going for mister incredible. Yeah, yeah, like,
- 1:21:39but you don't notice some things on the first watch round. It's very
- 1:21:44much. Yeah, it's a lot that goes on, and that's what I
- 1:21:46Brad Bird did a great job telling those stories because it's like it's it's it's
- 1:21:51all so much action, but there's other stuff that's going on, and then
- 1:21:56like if you don't care violent. Yeah. However he saw as a scene
- 1:22:00though, Yeah, I still want I still want to know the conversation after
- 1:22:06Frozen snapped on a snapped on honey, I still know that conversation at that
- 1:22:12point when you know that dinner problem conversation and everyone's scene is so quotable,
- 1:22:23and that was from two thousand and four. Yeah, I think the fact
- 1:22:27that uh, there's a, there's a and there's this is when you mentioned
- 1:22:30things that people miss. If you notice early in the movie Violet is you
- 1:22:34know, she's creating invisible shields already. So when Dad when they're in danger
- 1:22:42in the jungle and she jumps in front of Dash and he asked, how
- 1:22:45was she doing that, she says, I don't know. It's not the
- 1:22:50fact that she created the shield, is the fact that she's floating right because
- 1:22:56she hadn't done that, And that's when people didn't catch it. Was just
- 1:22:58like, oh, she's created a shield around herself. How did she do?
- 1:23:01No, that's not it. She was doing that earlier at the dinner
- 1:23:04table. That are their names all basically reflect their powers. Yeap. Although
- 1:23:12I couldn't blame dash that that that that's my guy. That is my guy.
- 1:23:19He's like, I know what it was on camera really prove it.
- 1:23:26After the second movie, you got people think that Jack Jack is flipping over
- 1:23:30to uh monster zinc World or the fact that if you look at it closely,
- 1:23:35I don't uh fro Zone was supposed to be the one taking the mission
- 1:23:39is not mister Incredible. Yeah right, so it's it's I do. I'd
- 1:23:44like the attention to detail when it comes to movies like like the spic Them
- 1:23:47on Me Franchise and Incredibles and dare I say Toy Story, Oh, we
- 1:23:57didn't need to we don't need a fish. We do not, we don't.
- 1:24:01I don't think we we don't need anymore. We're fine, But I
- 1:24:08know, I don't know. I think should have been any giving his kids
- 1:24:14the toys. So I still want that transition to happen. But now what
- 1:24:17he left for some so I don't know what he's like. I'm on the
- 1:24:23road like Toy Story. Toy Story three was like the end of the good
- 1:24:30collab of Disney movie video game combos. It was, you know, it's
- 1:24:40fun, and then it went down hill. You ran the world drive.
- 1:24:45Yeahs, and video games are just park rides. I'm surprised they haven't tried
- 1:24:53like a Minion's VRS or something yet. But I'm gonna tell you why they
- 1:24:57have it is because they know they're d is so valuable, because their IP
- 1:25:01is valuable, and they make one bad game that's rude. I see that,
- 1:25:09right. That's why they have the Mario movies because they don't need to
- 1:25:11make the Mario games. There is only Mario games. Mm hmmm. So
- 1:25:15they're good and it brings in and it brings in money. And I'm not
- 1:25:19gonna lie to you. I play them. Uh, and made that mistake
- 1:25:24about making that cart racer. Everybody's like, oh, this is Mega Mind's
- 1:25:28first appearance in ten years, and you would have been a cart racer as
- 1:25:30d l C. Yeah, it was. That wasn't the smartest that wasn't
- 1:25:34the smartest on earth? Why do they get another Mega mind? Right?
- 1:25:40People? The hell? Can you really? Could you really go anywhere?
- 1:25:45The first Mega mind though, yes, yes, yes global he was the
- 1:25:50hero had a hero like he's the end of the movie. You only have
- 1:25:57you only have one hero in atrocity as he likes to call it. Are
- 1:26:02there any other heroes? And is there a global threat? I need to
- 1:26:05see that. I mean it's a fair I mean, you know, it's
- 1:26:08a fair point. I'm not arguing that. I'm just it's amazing some movies
- 1:26:12get multiple, multiple movies, and while other movies gonna get it one.
- 1:26:15And I'm gonna tell you why. I think we want to have to have
- 1:26:17a movie because when the Supermuni came out, the plot was probably gonna be
- 1:26:21too similar mice to kids, oh no too where grew joins the heroes and
- 1:26:26everything else like that. So the flots would have probably been too similar.
- 1:26:28And it's like, ah, Thatt's not I personally would have said, so
- 1:26:34here's my here's my makeup of a mega mind. Two, there's a global
- 1:26:40threat. He's introduced to a whole new cachet of heroes thanks to metro Man
- 1:26:45m hm. However, no one trusting of course, so in order to
- 1:26:54you know, he's tired of fighting the good fight with them anyway, and
- 1:26:58he's trying to do the right thing. However, this global threat is a
- 1:27:01little bigger than whoever these cachet heroes are. Okay, so why don't we
- 1:27:10kind of be the bad guy hmmm and not really be the bad guy?
- 1:27:17So make a banti hero. Yeah, I can see that, don't you
- 1:27:23kind of think that's a little too similar though to the to minus the kids,
- 1:27:27because nobody trust the group. Every time they said there was a suspect,
- 1:27:30it's like, yeah, no, that's not him, and then they
- 1:27:31rented the wrong guy and all that. Like, I see it kind of
- 1:27:34plays too similar with that, And I think when a mega mega mind has
- 1:27:38a surprisingly hardcore fan base, So if you do anything to like kind of
- 1:27:44make it similar to any of the movies, they're not gonna want it.
- 1:27:46I think that they might have. I don't think they wrote themselves in the
- 1:27:49corner. But when you have when you just took took it took place in
- 1:27:55one city, you can expand it. Yeah, and it's not so much
- 1:28:00it's not so much proving to the other here, it's like, Okay,
- 1:28:02we got some other things going on, But what if Mega Mine has a
- 1:28:05mentor mentor someone like him from the dark side? Right? That's interesting though.
- 1:28:11I like that one. What if the global threat is the people from
- 1:28:14his planet? That's different and it could be his father. Other scripts now
- 1:28:25selling I see father issues on Mega Mine too. It's like, have I
- 1:28:30not? Have I not always approved of you? You don't want to cross
- 1:28:34a territory. It wouldn't be a beatdown, it would just be a verbal
- 1:28:44beatdown of that you would that was never good enough? Have I not?
- 1:28:46Did I not teach you anything? How have you not conquered this planet?
- 1:28:53Have his father played by Liam Neeson that that whole speech going on. You're
- 1:29:01just like Jesus Christ's four and three boss babies. Why can't I get two
- 1:29:06Mega Monds? That's it? There got the four. I mean when they
- 1:29:15when they announced it and we did the trailer reaction, I was like,
- 1:29:17I'm surprised they are doing this. I usually assume once you get a Nickelodeon
- 1:29:23show is a DreamWorks movie, that's congratulations. So I just assumed. I'm
- 1:29:33like, oh, okay, And then they were like, yeah, this
- 1:29:35show is still going it is. I like, Jack Black, I just
- 1:29:41didn't know he needs another check after the Mario movie, needs to buy more
- 1:29:45stuff. They did take a little bit as extra Mario movie money and just
- 1:29:50go make another despectable movie. Just just come up with a just coming with
- 1:29:55a throng for Kumbou Panta Jack like you did Mario. He can't get an
- 1:30:01award for that, They're said, right, what he can't get an award
- 1:30:06for that? Right? They rolled him out or something. He came with
- 1:30:09the Academy success. That's no question. That ship. I mean that man,
- 1:30:16that man took one verse and made a and made a freaking hit,
- 1:30:20right legendary. I'm like, look, when when when when Ryan Gosling gets
- 1:30:29an award for Kennon. I'm like, I'm just kidding. Yeah, that
- 1:30:34he was shot, Yeah he was shocked. That's like the look he had
- 1:30:38was the same look at it. I'm like, I don't know, I
- 1:30:41love that song for some reason. It's not the it's not the song that's
- 1:30:44bad. It was just weird. It's like I would have thought that the
- 1:30:46Billie Eilish song that was being song for Barbie would have took not the King's
- 1:30:50song because I was like, really, elish was more like a serious song,
- 1:30:58which is the Academy. It's like go to song, fell over on
- 1:31:02the charts, though they don't pay attention to charts. I gonna be honest
- 1:31:09with you, during that award, I wouldn't be surprised he was out there
- 1:31:13during concessions while I was going on like the war goes to Ryan Gosling Empty
- 1:31:18empt c. He was probably getting ready to go to the bathroom because he
- 1:31:23was like, there's no way what song in that new movie. Yes,
- 1:31:29if you don't get dead Pool singing the new song in the movie is gonna
- 1:31:31be a problem. The fact that he got the Nigga Delda singing to that
- 1:31:36was beyond sorry you ain't got to sleep, beyond to say, oh yeah
- 1:31:42Canadian, he needs somebody else because she's not doing it anymore. I know
- 1:31:46that I loved because you know, I would not be surprised just because it's
- 1:31:59him. I would not be surprised. Technically, Dolly was nine to five.
- 1:32:09That was the first one. He did have dollars. He had dollars
- 1:32:11track in the first one. Okay, so yes, you're twenty are entire
- 1:32:15ohky she is with one of the two. Yeah, so we are highlighting
- 1:32:20because I'm not waiting till February, because we celebrate three sixty five, three
- 1:32:26sixty six, because it's a leap yeer. Uh, I forgot. I

- 1:33:21and it's all good. And it's black. Yeah, that's the important part.
- 1:33:30It's black on black and we needed more of that. So shout out
- 1:33:34to Greg Burnham and Marcus the Vigil. I want that book. So I'm
- 1:33:40glad you said that. Let me pull the information up if you go to
- 1:33:44Tuskegee Airs dot com, which I'm going to share that right now, right
- 1:33:54here. I have no idea where I care for like you want to start
- 1:34:08barely, but here we go. Can you hear it? No? No
- 1:34:16sound? Wait a minute, I'm sorry. I'll pull it back through.
- 1:34:21I'm sorry. I'm sorry to Farry that killed me. It broke. I
- 1:34:27tried to hit the awkward stretch and just oh man nineteen years man. There
- 1:34:34are a number of different projects I've worked on, great artistic you know,
- 1:34:40milestones that I've done, and work with Coft Network, been in the animation
- 1:34:44side of things, did storyboards, comics and things of that nature. Tuskis
- 1:34:50is a concept that I rolled around in my mind for a little while in
- 1:34:54terms of trying to create something that was as exciting for a young young generation
- 1:35:00now as Voltron was for me when I was a kid. The concept was,
- 1:35:05what if you take the Tuskee Airman and just make it a young cast
- 1:35:11and put all the history, put all the great moral, wonderful work,
- 1:35:15ethic, the problem solving against the world, you know, mentality into that
- 1:35:21million power young kids to watch them be excited. I'm Greg Burnham, a
- 1:35:26children's book writer and co creator of tusky Ye Airs. Tuskide Airs is set
- 1:35:30about eighty years from the current day. It's about five pilots. They're all
- 1:35:36children ages fourteen to nineteen, that are going to come across some really cool
- 1:35:43machines and basically be the Earth's last line of defense of it. The idea
- 1:36:17came about Marcus basically brought the concept to me in its beginning stages, and
- 1:36:24then we sat down, like we were both excited to work on it for
- 1:36:29maybe an hour just to get the basic premise, a lot of yelling and
- 1:36:32fighting with each other to you know, till we were both excited and happy
- 1:36:36with what we came up with. And then from there Marcus put one illustration
- 1:36:42online coming to the museums. There's a ton of wonderful image that just creatively,
- 1:36:48I want to use your being, want to show the actual emage,
- 1:36:53and I want to illustrate the characters from Tuski and it was doing just about
- 1:36:57the same scene. We just feel like the world needs to see this,
- 1:37:00we need to see it ourselves. But you have five pilots, they're all
- 1:37:05black, and they're the heroes of the story. Not to say there won't
- 1:37:10be other races or cultures in the book in series, because there will,
- 1:37:15but it's just something that we've never seen done before. I suppose at the
- 1:37:20end of every King, I want parents to be highly supercharged, to be
- 1:37:27very very motivated to put the children in front of this, whether it's the
- 1:37:30comic, whether it be the animated series down the road. It can be
- 1:37:34a video game in the future, it can be toys, it can be
- 1:37:38Merchali. I want them to feel very proud. There's tons of family that
- 1:37:43are connected, descendants that are connected to the TESTI gear. There is production
- 1:37:47cars. We have a comic book to create. I do illustration full time,
- 1:37:53so in order to make time to produce that book. You are definitely
- 1:37:58donating to the production of the actual graphic novel if you just want to see
- 1:38:02it succeed, if you want to see its changed history. It's kind of
- 1:38:05a project. We would love to have your support, and we look forward
- 1:38:10to, you know, publishing something and producing something that everyone can be all
- 1:38:46right, You can go to Tuskegee AARs dot com and go ahead and order
- 1:38:50some of that great merch that they have, including some of those books,
- 1:38:55show your support. That is our spotlight Indie comic of the week. Well
- 1:38:59not of the week, but the day. We'll have another spotlight this Thursday.

- 1:43:28It'll probably be the Blue Oyster. I got a little with the things to
- 1:43:34plug too. I forgot podcast No Mercy dropping out pretty soon talking about the
- 1:43:41Megan and Nikki megane Stallion situation. Also, I have a collection that's out
- 1:43:46now trailers on my page or Anti Bullying for Females. So anytime you buy
- 1:43:50the shirts that are coming out this time is donated to a anti bullying campaign
- 1:43:57called the Kindness Campaign and Kindness Initiatives to what they teach young women not to
- 1:44:00how to you know, bully theirselves, realize what the real problems is and
- 1:44:04women and women relationships, you know, image, everything else like that.
- 1:44:08So please buy those shirts because this feud has really shown me that we are
- 1:44:14going to hell in a hand basket if nobody does anything, it's not really
- 1:44:17so much a feud. If if it has to be a back and right.
- 1:44:23But you know, I'm talking about the fans, the fans are so
- 1:44:26toxic. The fans is like a tennis fansy going do not go to people's
- 1:44:31resting places right and desecrate them. That is the security means that it's like
- 1:44:45through me, a bigger deal than the people who are actually involved in it,
- 1:44:50especially if it's especially one person said one thing right and if anybody listens
- 1:44:57to it, I'm gonna tell you all right now, it's a respect of
- 1:44:59what us men can do about the situation, because even though that there's so
- 1:45:02women's situation, us men can do better in certain situations like this, so
- 1:45:08the stuff doesn't happen in the future. So please listen to No Mercy because
- 1:45:13I'm unstricted on there. I'm unfiltered. I'm uncensored. I don't care if

- 1:47:39POC community, I try my best to bring them aboard and put it and
- 1:47:43shine some light on their pl on their platform, on their project, because
- 1:47:46this platform isn't just talking about comics and nerd stuff and entertainment. It's about
- 1:47:51putting eyes on us to say, hey, we got some coin we have
- 1:47:57We have some people out here who are massive talented and they need to be
- 1:48:00seen and they so far right floor is yours. You can find me here
- 1:48:10at all platforms. I also do things on the Internet. I also do
- 1:48:13a lot of the editing and a lot of the behind the scenes stuff for
- 1:48:15the blurd's I view page. We are officially thank y'all since last show.
- 1:48:18By the way, we are up to thirty I think it is. We're
- 1:48:24at twenty twenty four hundred out of the three thousand, so that'll be hours
- 1:48:31until monetization. Sost what we all are doing. Keep it up. We
- 1:48:35have black Spartan stores now do playlists in why I was running back the catalog
- 1:48:45and I'm like, there's a series here. How many y'all need? Six?

- 1:49:12just to help me all out the same way you helped us out. I
- 1:49:15appreciate it. So people that's out there listening and watch it, go ahead,
- 1:49:18subscribe to blurs out. You want a YouTube channel and time. I'm
- 1:49:21not doing all this chopping on this bad computer for my health. Watch the
- 1:49:28damn things playlist and put it ryde people that are being nice and trying to
- 1:49:35like spam. The way YouTube works, you only get one watch per account,
- 1:49:40So if you have like seven devices, but they're all logged into the
- 1:49:42same thing, that yeah, I guess. So I was gonna say,
- 1:49:50Dear black people, it is black pict three months with the DLC day this
- 1:49:54year, so we got twenty nine days to act up instead of twenty eight.
- 1:49:57Take full advantage. If you're a creator, this is the one month
- 1:50:00algorithm. Like sens However, I get baited, don't get banned. Use
- 1:50:04your block, your banish, and your delete. But all be all,
- 1:50:10be all be they are. They pop up every year from January till March.
- 1:50:16I don't count. Don't fall for the bs black face accounts. Don't
- 1:50:21fall for the faceless accounts that just come out and say wild stuff. They
- 1:50:25are just trying to goat you. Because they can say it to you,
- 1:50:28you can't say nothing back. Do not spend the one good month of the
- 1:50:30algorithm locked up for thirty days and met a max security max security. Sucker
- 1:50:36word will be playing. You actually have us? Do you actually have a
- 1:50:42playlist in my stories? We have like I think they got three and I
- 1:50:45got like two more that I gotta find because we've had some other ones.
- 1:50:48I'm going to when he when he said it, when he sold when he
- 1:50:51told me, And I'm like, I'm going to make an intro and just
- 1:50:56tag it. Here's another Spartan story. It was something something crazy and just
- 1:51:01slapping on there. See I'm black here is not here because I told her
- 1:51:05about this my old associated solid taper, like, will you gotta tell the
- 1:51:11clown story? No, no, that clown story, Well it might get
- 1:51:17told. I told you. I told her another day for another time for
- 1:51:20the story. But anyway, why every time I'm on here, I tell
- 1:51:25more about my personal life. But because you're always working on the engines,
- 1:51:30that's why every time the story, Oh there's there's a couple I've told.
- 1:51:36It's literally, it's literally. Spartan's literally that guy he was like, I
- 1:51:41remember that time on the shee why like picture it was before the plantation,
- 1:51:55it was before the planet. You just sound like, actually, well,
- 1:52:01no, my Morgan freem is terrible. I said, there'd be the whole
- 1:52:03time. I can't sit the dow Morgan freemus like, but always got to
- 1:52:06the plantation. I used to talk about my friend at day and it doesn't
- 1:52:11sound right anyway, I'm getting hell distracted. Black NS four four seven is
