- 0:01Speaker 1: Charlot Mayne say the gang don't get the shape man,
- 0:04Speaker 1: you are a donkey today does not discriminate. I might
- 0:12Speaker 1: not have the song of today, but I got to
- 0:13Speaker 1: don't get that you feel I need to be a
- 0:16Speaker 1: donky man breakfast club bitches. He just don't give today today. Yeah,
- 0:23Speaker 1: I couldn't wait to get to this one last week.
- 0:25Speaker 1: Don't get to day from Monday in November twenty eighth
- 0:27Speaker 1: goes to Aaron Franklin Brink. Who is Aaron Franklin Blink?
- 0:32Speaker 1: Is it Blink or brink Holing? Let me make sure
- 0:34Speaker 1: it is Aaron Brink, Yes, Aaron Brink. Aaron Franklin Brink. Well,
- 0:39Speaker 1: he is the father of Anderson Lee all Rich, who
- 0:42Speaker 1: is the twenty two year old who allegedly got to
- 0:44Speaker 1: say allegedly carried out a deadly shooting at Club Q
- 0:48Speaker 1: and Colorado springs condolences to everyone who lost their life
- 0:51Speaker 1: and that tragic shooting, sending healing energy to everyone who
- 0:55Speaker 1: was injured in this tragic mass shooting. Anderson has been
- 0:59Speaker 1: charged with five counts the first degree murder and five
- 1:02Speaker 1: counts of bias motivated crimes causing bodily injury. The bias
- 1:06Speaker 1: of course, was because Club Q was an LGBTQ bar. Now,
- 1:10Speaker 1: if you're a parent and someone comes to you and
- 1:13Speaker 1: tells you that your child did something so heinous like
- 1:17Speaker 1: a mass shooting, I can imagine the plethora of emotions
- 1:20Speaker 1: that run through you. Actually, who am I fooling? I
- 1:24Speaker 1: can't imagine what the plethora of emotions that would run
- 1:27Speaker 1: through you would be, even though I know that it
- 1:30Speaker 1: indeed would be a plethora of emotions. I just can't
- 1:33Speaker 1: imagine what a parent would actually feel, But I would
- 1:36Speaker 1: think it would be concerned for both my child and
- 1:39Speaker 1: the people he hurt and killed. We all feel a
- 1:41Speaker 1: sense of hurt and pain whenever we hear of these
- 1:44Speaker 1: mass shootings. I know I do, because it's just a
- 1:46Speaker 1: reminder that we aren't safe anywhere. Okay, every day we
- 1:50Speaker 1: are trying to avoid other people's crazy. Every day we
- 1:52Speaker 1: are trying to avoid other people's projections. So when it happens,
- 1:56Speaker 1: you automatically feel sorry for these people who lost their
- 1:59Speaker 1: lives simply because one individual hated their own. Yes, you
- 2:03Speaker 1: have to hate yourself something serious to wake up and say,
- 2:06Speaker 1: I'm going to project this hate I have for myself
- 2:09Speaker 1: onto others. I'm gonna project this hurt and pain i'm feeling.
- 2:13Speaker 1: I'm gonna go share it by taking out as many
- 2:15Speaker 1: people as I can today. I really wish folks who
- 2:18Speaker 1: felt this way would either get some real help, or
- 2:20Speaker 1: if you want to kill someone, start with yourself first,
- 2:22Speaker 1: because I'm sick of seeing innocent lives being lost because
- 2:26Speaker 1: folks won't deal with the real problem. And that's the
- 2:28Speaker 1: person staring back at them in the mirror. And I'm
- 2:30Speaker 1: saying all I have to say, Yes, that has to
- 2:33Speaker 1: be a lot for a parent to handle well. Aaron
- 2:36Speaker 1: Franklin Brink had a lot of things running through his
- 2:40Speaker 1: mind when he found out his son had hurt and
- 2:43Speaker 1: killed all those people in Club Q. But one of
- 2:45Speaker 1: those things is a mindset that probably led to things
- 2:48Speaker 1: like the Club Q shooting happening. Let's listen. So his
- 2:52Speaker 1: attorney has called you, yes, sir, and they said your
- 2:54Speaker 1: son wants to talk with you. Why did they call you?
- 2:57Speaker 1: Actually didn't say he wants to talk to me, They
- 3:00Speaker 1: said it happened. Happened. They start telling you what the incident,
- 3:03Speaker 1: about the incidents, we're just shooting involving you know, multiple people,
- 3:07Speaker 1: and then I go on they're on going to find
- 3:08Speaker 1: it the gay bar, yeah right, and gay and it's okay,
- 3:16Speaker 1: So it's exists. Well, you guys have had conversations about that.
- 3:21Speaker 1: You were your Republican and we don't do gay, gay,
- 3:31Speaker 1: we don't do gay. Yeah. So you mean to tell
- 3:35Speaker 1: me that you just found out your son killed multiple
- 3:38Speaker 1: people at a gay bar. And one of the first
- 3:40Speaker 1: things that you think about one of the first questions
- 3:42Speaker 1: that come to your mind, God, is he gay? That's
- 3:46Speaker 1: what you care about at a time like this. I
- 3:48Speaker 1: don't know if he's gad not, but he's certainly a murderer.
- 3:51Speaker 1: And in regards to lack of empathy, that apple clearly
- 3:54Speaker 1: don't fall too far from the tree, all right. I
- 3:56Speaker 1: don't know how much time this man spending this son's life.
- 3:58Speaker 1: When you see these people who are morally opposed to
- 4:02Speaker 1: homosexuality because of faith, like this man, like this man
- 4:06Speaker 1: is oh, because he says, he's a moment that I'm
- 4:08Speaker 1: sure that is a belief that was spread in that household,
- 4:10Speaker 1: or at least to his son a lot, all right,
- 4:13Speaker 1: And that faith can make someone go from this is
- 4:16Speaker 1: wrong in the eyes of God to this is evil.
- 4:18Speaker 1: So I have to stop these people at all costs,
- 4:21Speaker 1: and sadly now we are here. You don't care that
- 4:24Speaker 1: your son as a murderer. You don't care he's gonna
- 4:26Speaker 1: spend the rest of his life in prison. You don't
- 4:28Speaker 1: care that all these people are killed. You don't care
- 4:31Speaker 1: that all these people that have been shot and injured.
- 4:33Speaker 1: All you care about is whether your son was gay
- 4:36Speaker 1: or not. His sexuality has nothing to do with the
- 4:38Speaker 1: trouble he's in, sir, okay. But the fact you care
- 4:41Speaker 1: so much about that is exactly why things like the
- 4:44Speaker 1: club que shooting happened. Because we are all too busy
- 4:47Speaker 1: worrying about what the next person is doing with their body,
- 4:50Speaker 1: and we are all too busy policing and attempting to
- 4:55Speaker 1: be the judge, jury and in this case, executioner of
- 4:59Speaker 1: what people who do with their bodies. Please let me remark,
- 5:03Speaker 1: give Aaron Franklin break the biggest he hall, heh, heh.
- 5:08Speaker 1: You stupid? Are you dumb? All right? Well, thank you
- 5:13Speaker 1: for that, Dunky. Today, m let's open up the phone
- 5:18Speaker 1: lines eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Let's discuss a topic that I'm sure it's on a
- 5:23Speaker 1: lot of people's mind. This morning as they're waking up.
- 5:25Speaker 1: It's like two things. It's like two things that I
- 5:28Speaker 1: feel like a lot of people think about after Thanksgiving.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Let's stand one, when do you put your Christmas decorations up? Okay,
- 5:36Speaker 1: that's a tough one. Yeah, personally they already up in
- 5:39Speaker 1: our house. They after Thanksgiving, they gotta go up, you
- 5:42Speaker 1: know what I mean, because you know the way that
- 5:44Speaker 1: these days have been flying by. It will be Christmas tomorrow,
- 5:47Speaker 1: so you know, let's get let's let's let's enjoy the moment.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Mine are already up. Second, up Wednesday. And the reason
- 5:53Speaker 1: Wednesday is because Wednesday is supposed to be sixty degree.
- 5:55Speaker 1: So as I start putting this stuff up, it's gonna
- 5:57Speaker 1: be kind of hotter. They ain't gonna be too cold.
- 5:59Speaker 1: But that that's my day, okay, okay, okay. And second
- 6:02Speaker 1: is when do you stop eating leftover? It's not for me.
- 6:05Speaker 1: All leftovers are easy to stop, but that damn pie,
- 6:10Speaker 1: that pie, that sweep with tato pie, it's very hard
- 6:13Speaker 1: to stop eating. I don't know how you stop eating
- 6:15Speaker 1: sweeper tato pie. And tell us guard m see see here.
- 6:21Speaker 1: We kind of eat the food until it's it's damn

- 6:38Speaker 1: like that. You know, it's cool to eat. The kids
- 6:39Speaker 1: just want to say to eat turkey. But the pies
- 6:42Speaker 1: and the cheesecake and all that. I think today is
- 6:45Speaker 1: the last day. Do you think today is the last
- 6:48Speaker 1: day for the pie? Yeah, if there's not, If there's
- 6:52Speaker 1: some leftover, bro, you might throw everything else. Ide. You
- 6:54Speaker 1: ain't throwing off that sweep tato pie. Bro. Bro, it

- 7:00Speaker 1: sit on Wednesday. So that's Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Six days. Now you're you're on the fence of possibly
- 7:13Speaker 1: mold and possibly having a diarrhea attack and happening to
- 7:16Speaker 1: go to to that. If it's mold, than you throw
- 7:19Speaker 1: it out. But if it ain't no more, it's hard
- 7:20Speaker 1: to get rid of that sweep taive bro. All right,

- 7:27Speaker 1: eight five, one oh five one, When can you get
- 7:30Speaker 1: rid of the leftover to Sweet Potato Pie? And when
- 7:34Speaker 1: are you hanging up your decorations? I ain't gonna lie.

- 7:38Speaker 1: this shit. I don't know why. It just maybe baby,
- 7:40Speaker 1: it's going too fast. I feel like when O Blink
- 7:42Speaker 1: is gonna be over, I'll have to take him down. Nah,
- 7:44Speaker 1: we put them. We put them in right after Thanksgiving
- 7:46Speaker 1: Friday and went up. Now, yeah, you still eating your well,

- 7:56Speaker 1: My parents came over. That was it. I'm gonna be honest.
- 8:00Speaker 1: I feel bad about this, and I know they're probably listening.
- 8:04Speaker 1: I was supposed to see my family on Saturday and
- 8:07Speaker 1: have a dinner, but my brother and I ended up
- 8:09Speaker 1: going to Tillies in Brooklyn and getting drunk and we

- 8:17Speaker 1: different day so people could go see the other sides
- 8:19Speaker 1: of their families. So everybody's not rushing around, and so
- 8:22Speaker 1: we always do an alternate day so that you know,
- 8:26Speaker 1: the in laws can go see their sides of the family.
- 8:28Speaker 1: And then that's just like Friday. I mean, I'd be
- 8:33Speaker 1: really celebrating thingsgiving or are we just getting together with
- 8:35Speaker 1: family because people are, the games are on. It's like
- 8:38Speaker 1: a whole routine. No, no, we don't do that. And
- 8:44Speaker 1: then we don't want to get together on Black Friday
- 8:45Speaker 1: because my family's out shopping so trying to get some deals.
