  Speaker 2: No more.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: They should be embrassed by what they already did. I'm
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: not making these people do these days.
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Called donkey of the day, and it really caught me
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: off guard. Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey of the
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: day today?

  Speaker 1: Well, Jefsailarry, it's donkey today.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: For Tuesday, April fifteenth goes to a thirty four year
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: old former police officer named Edgar Verdusco. He used to
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: be a police officer for the Los Angeles Police Department,
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: and he is the latest example of why I simply
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: hate humans.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I've come to the conclusion that what annoys me about.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: Life the most is people, which is strange because the
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: thing I love most about life is people.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: But I like considerate people.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, we had mel Robbins up here yesterday and she
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: was speaking to how emotionally disconnected some people are from
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: the actual human experience, and this story is just another
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: example of that. Edgar on Friday pled guilty to three
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: counts of murder. Okay, man killed a mother, of father
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: and a teenage son. Would you like to know how
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: it happened. Let's go to ABC seven Eyewitness News for
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: the report.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Police a former LAPD officer is heading to prison after
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: pleading guilty to murder in a fiery dui crash. Thirty
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: four year old Edgar Verdusco faces fifteen years to life
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: for killing three people on the six Ozho five Freeway
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: and twenty seventeen. The off duty police officer was driving
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty miles an hour while under the
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: influence of alcohol when he hit two vehicles. One of
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: them plowed into the center divider and burst into flames,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: killing Marabelle and Mario Davla and their nineteen year old son, Oscar,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: who was a student at UC Riverside for Disco is
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: do back in court in July for sentencing rest.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: In peace to that family.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: Man dead because of somebody else's negligence. Edgar, you have
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: to get the book thrown at you, Okay, put him
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: under the prison. You're a police officer, so you know
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: the law. You knew drinking and driving, the speeding, the
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: reckless driving, vehecula homicide. You know the law and you
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: know what all that carries. Plus your job is to protect,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: and serve. You did none of that, so your penalty
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: has to be harsh. Okay, And I'm taking in this
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: story and it makes me feel why did God give
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: us free will? Okay, I'm glad God gave it to us.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: But free will is like a baked potato. Okay, it
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: needs toppings to really elevate it. Okay, you can eat
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: a big potato plan, but when you put butter on it,
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: or sour cream or chives or salt or pepper. Some
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: people like cheese, I'm lactose intolerance, so I don't do that.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: Some people like chili on it, green onions. I've seen
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: broccoli on bike potatoes. My point is free will and
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: free will alone is not enough, Okay. In order to
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: maximize free will, you need self awareness. You need to
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: pay attention to the present moment. You need to manage
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: your emotional state. You need to be a good character.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: And you don't need to be on drugs and alcohol
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: because those things cause you to make poor choices with
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: that free will. And what does your uncle Shaula always
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: tell you on this damn radio, Destiny is not a
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: matter of chance, It's a matter of choice. This guy,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Edgar exercised his free will to make a poor choice,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: and this is why I don't like humans. When mel
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Robbins was here talking about people who leave the bathroom disgusting,
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: it hit me because that's one of my pet peeves.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: I hate when I walk in the bathroom and see
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: somebody else's dodo in the toilet.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Even worse, when you see that.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: They left the toilet lining on the seat, It's like,
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: what type of rusher you in? Don't you know other
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: people have to use this bathroom. I feel the same
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: way about drunk driving. Okay, now you're talking to a
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: person who almost killed himself drunk driving when I was
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: a young lad, so I'm speaking from experience.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I was selfish.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: I wasn't thinking about anybody but myself. I had zero
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: regard for other people's lives in that moment, and thank God,
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: my dumb ass, you know, when I wrecked, didn't kill
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: myself or anyone else. For more on that story, go
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: to Amazon and purchase my first book, Black Privilege, Opportunity
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: Comes to Those who created It, available everywhere you buy books. Now,
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: I hate people, Okay, This man, Edgar posted a video
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: on social media with the hashtag oh that's the part
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: of the story I left up.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: This man.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Edgar posted a video on social media with the hashtag
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: don't drink and dry, and then shortly after gotten his card,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: drunk and killed three people.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: I repeat this man. Edgar posted a video.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: On social media with the hashtag don't drink and drive,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: and then shortly after kill three people drunk driving. This
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: goes back to what I said about self awareness, paying
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: attention to.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: The present moment.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: God, God literally told Edgar what to do, and he
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: did the opposite. We have all these conversations about signs,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: look for signs. God put it in his head, in
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: his heart so much that he shared with social media
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: a message that he ignored. Don't drink and drive, Edgar,
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: that was for you in that moment. It doesn't get
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: much clearer than that gang, But you can't see it
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: because you are a human being that is so disconnected
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: from the interconnection to the human experience. I don't care
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: if you drinking and driving or leaving a public bathroom filthy.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: When you do those things, you are simply not thinking
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: of other people. But don't listen to me though, Okay,
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: I just stopped being a sociopath about a decade ago.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Mel Robins explains it way better than me.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: When you go into a public bathroom, two things. I
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: always leave the space better than when I found it.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: If somebody destroys the seat, peas all over it and
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: then they leave, that is a human being that is
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: so disconnected from the interconnection of the human experience. You
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: are leaving that for another person. And so making sure
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: that you don't leave your mess for another person, making
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: sure that you just kind of wipe down the counter.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: And then here's the second thing. If there is a
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: human being cleaning that bathroom, please look in the ai
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: and say thank you all the time, all the time
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: like that right there is a simple thing that will
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: make you start to shake out of that woe is
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: me or that stress or that overwhelm Let them know
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: you appreciate and see what they're doing, like you know,
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: I can't look you, I'm gonna cry. People are just
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: walking around disconnected and the power of starting to be
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: the one that wakes people up. These relationships matter because
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: they make you feel human again.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: The moral of the story is get connected to the
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: interconnection of the human experience. You're not on this earth alone.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: Please let rem Ma give Edgar Ford Dusko the biggest
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: he hull.
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: He ha he ha.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: You stupid mother, are you dumb?
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: All right, well, thank you for that. Donkey to day, Yes, ma'am.
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: All right now when we come back eight hundred just ignore,
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: just ignorant, just ignored, Just ignore it.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: He's fantasized right now. Ignore it.
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: Eight hundred five eight five, one oh five one. My book,
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: Real Life, Real Family is out today. Gia was just
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: joined the breakfast Club what about forty five minutes ago,
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: and we were talking about how we raise our kids.
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: And this is how the conversation went.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Would you say that you and uh and we have
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: two different parenting styles.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Absolutely the more lenient.
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: It depends what it is. I'm disciplined. I was the
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: yell of the screamer because I said, so, gear is
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: a lot different. She wants to know why, Yeah, how
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: did you feel that?
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: But I she likes to break down.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: You don't get it, You're gonna get it by the
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: end of the right exactly.
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: So you got to think, really think before you speak
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: to us, because she's like, all right, explain that, like.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: I just said it, just because no, no, no, explain this.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: But so I'm more like.
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: Because I said so, She's more like, well, you can't
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: go to the more because of this, because this could happen.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: Explain your parents.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: Mine is my dad was like no, and you didn't
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: ask why, it just it was what it was. You
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: just figured out later. Is a little different. I prefer
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: the explanation.
• 7:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so that's how my parents were with me. I
• 7:43
  Speaker 7: knew that my parents never said no just for the
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: sake of saying no. Because parents are overworked and they
• 7:49
  Speaker 7: are stressed. You really have to take a moment. You
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: have to take a beat. We all have to take
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: a beat to listen to our children and be patient.
• 7:57
  Speaker 7: And because I knew that my parents were invest sit
• 8:00
  Speaker 7: in me that way, I knew that when they said no.
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: There was a good reason.
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: So we're asking eight hundred five eight five one oh
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: five one. How does your parenting style different from your partners?
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean explanations are good. That's how you learn,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: not just in parenting, like even just as a couple.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: For example, if you say to your wife did you
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: orgasm and she says no, you know she should explain
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: to you why she didn't so you can make her
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: the next time.
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: Right, So the question is eight hundred five eight five
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: one oh five one. How does your parents style different
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: from your partners? Like Jess, I'm sure you and and Chris?
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: Is your parenting different?
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Or even you and Rome?
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: So when we come back, we'll find out, you know,
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: how it differs and how which one works?
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: How you say, I just ignore ch'all the mate?
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: Yes, like yesterday for the birthdays. I'm sure y'all did
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: two different things, right? No?
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: No, no, Rome had actually work So Rome had them
• 8:47

• 8:53
  Speaker 6: five eight five one oh five one.
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: You want to kiss me? I could tell? I could tell.
