- 1:20Speaker 1: Friday song.
- 1:21Speaker 3: We used to sing Katy Perry last Friday night and
- 1:23Speaker 3: Rebecca Black Friday.
- 1:25Speaker 1: I was thinking about that the other day, though.
- 1:27Speaker 3: If we were to do Goon Tunes now, I would
- 1:30Speaker 3: change it. I would change it. You know what song
- 1:32Speaker 3: it would be?
- 1:33Speaker 1: What it be? Dolly Parton, 9 to 5. For all
- 1:36Speaker 1: the working class people.
- 1:37Speaker 5: Run that today, man.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Just give them something, man.

- 1:53Speaker 5: Good day.
- 1:54Speaker 2: How are you?
- 1:54Speaker 1: Peace.
- 1:55Speaker 2: Peace.
- 1:55Speaker 1: How are you?
- 1:55Speaker 4: I'm blessed.
- 1:57Speaker 1: Who you want to give the biggest hee-haw to?
- 1:59Speaker 4: I'm giving the donkey to all of these parents who
- 2:01Speaker 4: is not teaching their kids proper hygiene and sending them
- 2:04Speaker 4: to school stink. Teach them how to wash their unarmed stink.
- 2:09Speaker 4: Teach them how to brush their teeth and take them
- 2:10Speaker 4: to the dentist. They brush stink. So the more the
- 2:13Speaker 4: parents with special needs kids that send their kids to
- 2:16Speaker 4: school unkempt.
- 2:18Speaker 3: You get all the donkeys.
- 2:20Speaker 4: Okay? Because why your child got the whole dingleberry forest
- 2:23Speaker 4: in his donkey?
- 2:24Speaker 5: Dang!
- 2:25Speaker 1: God damn. Now listen, are we factoring in poverty in
- 2:28Speaker 1: this situation? A lot of people.
- 2:29Speaker 4: That don't mean nothing because I've poured water to take
- 2:32Speaker 4: a hot shower before. So I don't want to hear
- 2:33Speaker 4: none of that.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Hey, where you calling from?
- 2:38Speaker 4: South Carolina.
- 2:38Speaker 1: I heard you. I can hear the Geechee in your voice.
- 2:41Speaker 1: You calling from the Lowcountry. What part of the Lowcountry?
- 2:43Speaker 5: Goose Creek.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Goose Creek. Okay, salute to the 843. They got bunkies
- 2:47Speaker 1: in Goose Creek. Boy, shut up. We invented bunkies. Wait, okay,
- 2:49Speaker 1: what are you talking about? What the hell is he
- 2:51Speaker 1: talking about? What school you teach at? What school you
- 2:54Speaker 1: teach at?
- 2:55Speaker 4: You know what? I don't want to go into all
- 2:57Speaker 4: of that because I talk about these churns.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand. I understand.
- 3:01Speaker 5: I understand.
- 3:01Speaker 4: Just make sure you make sure your churn is washed
- 3:04Speaker 4: up and they got on deodorant and you're taking them
- 3:06Speaker 4: to the dentist and make sure your child get a
- 3:08Speaker 4: proper haircut and you brush them in here because the
- 3:11Speaker 4: foster flakes that look ain't good either.
- 3:13Speaker 1: I will say, though, that is true, man.
- 3:15Speaker 3: You know, growing up in South Carolina, even if we
- 3:17Speaker 3: didn't have much money, boy, you still.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Had to be clean. Absolutely. You can't be stinking. Now,
- 3:21Speaker 1: you can't embarrass your parents and go nowhere stinking.
- 3:23Speaker 4: You know, North Charleston High was a whole fashion show.
- 3:25Speaker 1: You see what I'm saying? Walking in that school smelling
- 3:28Speaker 1: like nanny.
- 3:29Speaker 3: No bueno.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Have a good day. Have a good day. Good morning.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Who's this?
- 3:38Speaker 5: Hi, this is Alicia.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Hey, who you want to give the biggest seahawk to?
- 3:42Speaker 5: I want to give the biggest seahawk to these politicians
- 3:45Speaker 5: because they're all acting up.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Which ones? Federal politicians, local level, who?
- 3:50Speaker 5: Well, I can't trust none of them. So who do
- 3:53Speaker 5: you vote for? They're all talking about stuff.
- 3:56Speaker 6: That they're not coming through with their promises.
- 3:58Speaker 5: They're promising stuff. They're just not doing what they say
- 4:02Speaker 5: they're doing. So how do you trust them?
- 4:04Speaker 3: Well, this is what I would tell people going into
- 4:05Speaker 3: the midterms. You know, I would I would go out
- 4:08Speaker 3: there and treat it like business. And what I'm looking
- 4:11Speaker 3: for in my business is I want to vote for
- 4:13Speaker 3: somebody who is talking about affordability. I want to vote
- 4:16Speaker 3: for somebody who's talking about protecting democracy. And I want
- 4:21Speaker 3: to vote for somebody who's talking about keeping us safe.
- 4:24Speaker 1: That's it. It's really simple for me. OK, that makes sense.
- 4:28Speaker 1: That makes sense.
- 4:31Speaker 5: I've heard it through the years. That's probably why a
- 4:34Speaker 5: lot of people don't vote.
- 4:35Speaker 2: I know that's why my son doesn't vote.
- 4:38Speaker 5: Because it's like they say all these things. You go in,
- 4:42Speaker 5: you vote, you do what you're supposed to. But then
- 4:45Speaker 5: at the end of the day, once they get there,
- 4:47Speaker 5: nothing happens.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Well, things do happen.
- 4:49Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, I think we're, we're realizing right
- 4:51Speaker 3: now how much elections have consequences, right? Like, you know,
- 4:54Speaker 3: you think things can't get worse, but they absolutely can.
- 4:57Speaker 3: So I know that, you know, you don't want to
- 4:59Speaker 3: vote for somebody that's going to keep the status quo,
- 5:01Speaker 3: but right now I'll take that status quo over authoritarianism.
- 5:05Speaker 3: I agree.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I agree.
- 5:07Speaker 5: That's true.
- 5:08Speaker 6: I mean, I grew up in, uh, partly in Jamaica, uh,
- 5:13Speaker 6: in Jamaica, they're very corrupt.
- 5:15Speaker 5: Uh, My parents took me away from in the 80s.
- 5:19Speaker 5: It seems like that was happening here.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Oh, no, not seems.
- 5:23Speaker 3: The levels of corruption from the Trump administration are unheard
- 5:27Speaker 3: of right now. So, like I said, man, you know,
- 5:29Speaker 3: you don't have to fall in love with none of
- 5:31Speaker 3: these elected officials, but just listen to what they're talking about.
- 5:34Speaker 3: The ones that are talking about affordability, the ones that
- 5:36Speaker 3: are talking about protecting democracy, keeping us safe, that's who
- 5:39Speaker 3: I'm voting for.
- 5:40Speaker 5: But then mental illness is on the rise.
- 5:45Speaker 1: That is very true.
- 5:46Speaker 3: But to me, that's all part of, you know, the
- 5:48Speaker 3: financial conversation. Like who is going to make sure we
- 5:52Speaker 3: have resources going to our communities like like like before
- 5:56Speaker 3: things like mental health?
- 5:57Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:58Speaker 5: I mean, I created an app. I talked to you
- 6:00Speaker 5: about it the other day. Yeah. I don't know.
- 6:02Speaker 6: I mean, right now I'm doing volunteer work in this
- 6:05Speaker 6: place that is a tiny community for the homeless people.
- 6:10Speaker 6: And to qualify, you just have to be on the
- 6:12Speaker 6: streets for more than a year here in Austin, Texas,
- 6:15Speaker 6: and have some kind of disability.
- 6:18Speaker 5: And you get a free house for life.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Damn.
- 6:21Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 6:21Speaker 1: What kind of disability? I can just start limping?
- 6:24Speaker 5: Any kind of disability.
- 6:26Speaker 6: As long as you're getting a check, you get a
- 6:28Speaker 6: free tiny home, and they build it for you.
- 6:30Speaker 5: I know I'm giving them.
- 6:32Speaker 2: you ain't saying tiny home.
- 6:33Speaker 3: You said house now now you're saying tiny home okay
- 6:36Speaker 3: but right.
- 6:37Speaker 5: But it's a home for these people that are on the.
- 6:39Speaker 1: Street that is true where is that where is this.
- 6:41Speaker 5: At this is in austin texas.
- 6:43Speaker 1: Austin texas i'm looking that up right now yeah i
- 6:46Speaker 1: mean hold.
- 6:47Speaker 3: On okay now it says in austin there's no completely
- 6:50Speaker 3: free tiny home program for people with disabilities but they
- 6:52Speaker 3: do have low cost and subsidized options that exist for
- 6:55Speaker 3: individuals who are chronically homeless Good morning.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Who's this? Hey, what's up, man?
- 7:00Speaker 5: It's Hassan.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Hassan. Who you want to get the biggest hee-haw to, sir? You.
- 7:04Speaker 1: What'd I do?
- 7:05Speaker 2: All right, so y'all had a topic about Diddy when
- 7:09Speaker 2: y'all was talking about him getting caught with contraband and
- 7:12Speaker 2: stuff like that. And you kept saying, oh, this is
- 7:15Speaker 2: going to affect his appeal. This is going to affect
- 7:17Speaker 2: his appeal. And I'm sitting there. I'm like, man, I
- 7:20Speaker 2: wish I could call in and tell him that he's
- 7:22Speaker 2: wrong for saying that because it won't affect his appeal.
- 7:26Speaker 5: He's in a.
- 7:28Speaker 2: Federal prison. So the judge is ruling on what happened
- 7:33Speaker 2: in his trial, not what's happening inside of the prison.
- 7:36Speaker 2: The judge is ruling on if anything that happened in
- 7:40Speaker 2: his trial can cause him to have a new trial.
- 7:44Speaker 1: She don't care or.
- 7:45Speaker 2: He don't care about if Diddy got Hennessy or caught
- 7:48Speaker 2: with a cell phone in jail. So that won't affect
- 7:52Speaker 2: his appeal at all.
- 7:53Speaker 1: I just wanted to call in.
- 7:54Speaker 2: That's why I said I wanted to call in.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Get it off your chest, not donkey. I'm glad that
- 8:01Speaker 1: you believe in the judicial system in that way.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Well, no, it's not that I believe in the judicial
- 8:07Speaker 2: system that way. I'm just saying I know I've been
- 8:09Speaker 2: through it. So I'm just saying, like, the judge is
- 8:12Speaker 2: ruling on what happened in the trial. The judge, they
- 8:16Speaker 2: can't rule on what's going on inside the judge. Now,
- 8:19Speaker 2: let me give you a scenario. If Diddy was going up,
- 8:22Speaker 2: if he was going up for parole to be released,
- 8:26Speaker 2: that can affect him being released from the prison, like
- 8:32Speaker 2: his release date, you know what I'm saying? But the
- 8:34Speaker 2: appeal has nothing to do with what's going on inside
- 8:37Speaker 2: of The prison, the appeal has to do with what
- 8:40Speaker 2: happened in his trial.
- 8:41Speaker 1: That's all the appeal has to do with.
- 8:43Speaker 3: I'm not saying you're wrong, but I think the better
- 8:45Speaker 3: conversation is it shouldn't have anything to do with his appeal.
- 8:49Speaker 1: But trust me, it will. You know what I'm saying?
- 8:52Speaker 1: All right, bro. I hear what you're saying, right?
- 8:56Speaker 2: But I'm just telling you, I've been through it.
- 8:57Speaker 1: I know it.
- 8:58Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 8:58Speaker 1: Like, that's not going to affect his appeal, brother.
- 9:01Speaker 2: I just want, I just, trust me.
- 9:03Speaker 1: I know.
- 9:04Speaker 3: I don't trust the judicial system to do the right thing,
- 9:07Speaker 3: but I hear you.
- 9:08Speaker 2: All right now.
- 9:09Speaker 1: Yes, sir. All right now. God damn. How you turn, what?
- 9:13Speaker 1: That's the People's Donkey. We do that every Friday, 1-800-585-1051.
- 9:16Speaker 3: You can call up and give somebody the credit they
- 9:19Speaker 3: deserve for being stupid.
- 9:21Speaker 1: Now, when we come back, who we got? Arianne Simone
- 9:24Speaker 1: will be joining us from the Fearless Fund. We're going
- 9:26Speaker 1: to talk to her next. She has a new book
- 9:27Speaker 1: that comes out October 6th. Fearless Freedom. And we're going
- 9:30Speaker 1: to talk to him in a little bit. It's the
- 9:31Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning.
