- 4:46Speaker 6: But first let me give you some force of course,
- 4:49Speaker 6: like I care. The Cleveland Cavaliers played the Detroit Pistons
- 4:52Speaker 6: last night and Cleveland beat Detroit one seventeen, one thirteen.
- 4:55Speaker 5: Cleveland is up three two in that series. That's all.
- 4:58Speaker 5: That's all.
- 5:02Speaker 8: Good morning, Good morning, Jess. How y'all doing this morning?
- 5:04Speaker 8: Good morning me me, good morning. Okay, So this morning
- 5:08Speaker 8: we are going to start in Georgia, where the battle
- 5:10Speaker 8: over voting rights and political power in the South is
- 5:13Speaker 8: continuing to escalate after that major Supreme Court ruling on
- 5:16Speaker 8: congressional maps. We're going to stay on this because this
- 5:19Speaker 8: is such an important topic. Georgia Governor Brian kimp He
- 5:23Speaker 8: is now officially called a special legislative session focusing on
- 5:28Speaker 8: specifically redistricting.
- 5:29Speaker 9: And so here's why this matters.
- 5:30Speaker 8: So after the Supreme Court that recent Louisiana decision, Republican
- 5:35Speaker 8: led states across the South, they're now moving to redraw
- 5:37Speaker 8: congressional maps in ways that could reshape the election for.
- 5:41Speaker 9: Years to come.
- 5:42Speaker 8: Now that ruling, it made it easier for states to
- 5:44Speaker 8: challenge and roll back some of those majority black voting
- 5:48Speaker 8: districts that had previously been protected under the Voting Rights Act. Now,
- 5:53Speaker 8: Georgia Republicans say the state needs new maps before it's twenty.
- 5:56Speaker 9: Twenty eight election cycle.
- 5:58Speaker 8: A lot of states are rushed to do it before
- 6:00Speaker 8: the twenty twenty six midterms, but Georgia is saying that
- 6:03Speaker 8: they're going to try and do theirs before the twenty
- 6:05Speaker 8: twenty eight election cycle to comply with the court's new ruling.
- 6:09Speaker 8: Now Governor Camp says the goal is to create what
- 6:11Speaker 8: Republicans call fair traditional districts based more on geography and
- 6:16Speaker 8: the compactness of.
- 6:18Speaker 9: The area and less about race. That's what they say.
- 6:20Speaker 8: But Democrats and voting rights groups say something very different
- 6:23Speaker 8: is happening, and they argue that this is part of
- 6:26Speaker 8: a broader push to weaken black voting power and a
- 6:29Speaker 8: state where Atlanta, you know, we have Atlanta, we have
- 6:32Speaker 8: black a lot of black people in Atlanta. Ray black
- 6:34Speaker 8: voters have become a major force in turning Georgia into
- 6:38Speaker 8: one of the country's most important political battleground states. So
- 6:41Speaker 8: let's listen to a Georgia lawmaker, followed by Governor Kemp.
- 6:46Speaker 4: But let's be very clear, he is redrawing the maps,
- 6:48Speaker 4: and today's news proves he is going to redraw the
- 6:50Speaker 4: maps under the decision in Klai to reduce black voting power.
- 6:54Speaker 10: Well, I mean, that doesn't surprise me. They'd say that,
- 6:57Speaker 10: but I mean they haven't seen the maps yet, so
- 7:00Speaker 10: you know they might want to wait and see what
- 7:02Speaker 10: the legislature does.
- 7:04Speaker 8: So, no, we haven't seen the maps yet. But if
- 7:06Speaker 8: we are following what every other state is doing, we
- 7:08Speaker 8: can only imagine what those maps may look like. Right,
- 7:11Speaker 8: And so George is not alone. We've been seeing this
- 7:14Speaker 8: in Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Missouri, and Tennessee. All after the
- 7:18Speaker 8: Supreme Court ruling, you know, they reopen that battle over
- 7:21Speaker 8: maps and Republicans they say that they are just correcting
- 7:25Speaker 8: something that was unconstitutional because it was based on race.
- 7:27Speaker 9: But Democrats are.
- 7:28Speaker 8: Arguing that this is a coordinated effort to dilute black
- 7:32Speaker 8: political power across the South.
- 7:34Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean we heard the Senator from South Carolina
- 7:37Speaker 6: say that yesterday, right, Yes, yes, I mean listen every
- 7:39Speaker 6: day at the Senator mass the every day I keep
- 7:40Speaker 6: hearing about the GOP in Southern states redistricting maps. What
- 7:44Speaker 6: I'm not hearing about is what's being done to combat that.
- 7:46Speaker 6: I know it is jerry mandering lawsuits out there, but what.
- 7:48Speaker 5: Else is happening.
- 7:49Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean there's some organization happening, and then we're
- 7:52Speaker 8: going to talk about some more of that tomorrow.
- 7:54Speaker 9: I'm doing some reporting on that, but really quickly too.
- 7:56Speaker 8: And if you're wondering how serious this fight over voting
- 7:59Speaker 8: maps is going in the South, and Tennessee, Democratic lawmakers
- 8:03Speaker 8: are now being punished after a protest, you know, they
- 8:06Speaker 8: protested those congressional maps that they say that are weakening
- 8:10Speaker 8: black voting powers. So last week Republicans they approved that
- 8:12Speaker 8: map in Tennessee to split Memphis into three three different
- 8:16Speaker 8: majority districts, and critics say that the move, of course,
- 8:20Speaker 8: is going to wipe out Tennessee's only black district, which
- 8:24Speaker 8: is which is Memphis. But during that vote, Democratic lawmakers
- 8:27Speaker 8: they protested on the House floor by linking arms and
- 8:30Speaker 8: trying to slow down the process. Now Tennessee lawmakers Speaker
- 8:34Speaker 8: Cameron Sexton says Democrats involved in those protests are being
- 8:38Speaker 8: removed from House committees.
- 8:39Speaker 3: Let's listen to.
- 8:41Speaker 11: Take every Democrat off committee is unprecedented. I represent seventy
- 8:46Speaker 11: thousand people just like he does. He has the right
- 8:48Speaker 11: to speak up. I have the right to speak up
- 8:50Speaker 11: as well.
- 8:51Speaker 12: About one and a half million Tennesseeans are losing their
- 8:55Speaker 12: representation on those committees. And they did that, and then
- 9:00Speaker 12: that wasn't enough. They removed representation from all the Democrats.
- 9:05Speaker 6: In this state.
- 9:06Speaker 5: So you tell me they are doing things the combatory redistricting,
- 9:08Speaker 5: but they're getting punished.
- 9:09Speaker 9: They're getting punished.
- 9:10Speaker 8: And what's so important is that committees matter because those
- 9:12Speaker 8: where the laws are shaped debated, you know, that's where
- 9:15Speaker 8: they talk about things before they go for a public vote.
- 9:19Speaker 8: And if you have no Democrats at all on any committees,
- 9:23Speaker 8: that means all the committees in Tennessee right now are
- 9:25Speaker 8: just Republican led. So just something to continue to watch
- 9:29Speaker 8: in Tennessee. And y'all coming up at seven. There's a
- 9:32Speaker 8: new Instagram update that people are talking about. Some people
- 9:34Speaker 8: love it, some people hate it. Some people are asking
- 9:36Speaker 8: did we ask for this?
- 9:37Speaker 6: We'll talk about it now, Lord Jesus, all right when
- 9:40Speaker 6: we come back is get it off your chest? One
- 9:42Speaker 6: one hundred and five eight five one oh five to one.

- 13:17Speaker 14: talk about an event or sink, but right now I'm
- 13:19Speaker 14: calling about Jeff Landry because honestly, he's worse than Trump.
- 13:23Speaker 14: And I tell people this all the time, that Jeff
- 13:26Speaker 14: Landry is literally the worst thing that's happened to New Orleans.
- 13:29Speaker 14: And so before I get too deep into him, I
- 13:31Speaker 14: want to tell people that Katie Bug is where you
- 13:34Speaker 14: can go to search to find a petition to recall
- 13:36Speaker 14: Jeff Landry.
- 13:37Speaker 6: Yeah, I saw what he did. Uh, what's the brother name?
- 13:41Speaker 6: Who won the election by sixty eight percent? And they
- 13:43Speaker 6: and they removed his seat.
- 13:46Speaker 14: Oh yeah yeah. And they're trying to change the maps
- 13:49Speaker 14: in the voting and that the amount of power that
- 13:50Speaker 14: black people have and choosing policies in Louisiana. And the
- 13:54Speaker 14: thing is, it's like how it's been going on for
- 13:57Speaker 14: a while because he wants to crucify young black kid
- 14:00Speaker 14: from small petty car. And he recently did a speech
- 14:03Speaker 14: where he basically set everything up. Everything but these got
- 14:06Speaker 14: to go and so that's what really perpetuates the recall.
- 14:10Speaker 14: So that was the first thing I wanted to jump on.
- 14:13Speaker 14: Katie bug Ka t II three bug is how you
- 14:17Speaker 14: can find information on the recall petition and.
- 14:21Speaker 5: What exactly is the recall petition?
- 14:23Speaker 14: For people who don't know, it's basically get him out office.
- 14:25Speaker 14: So the more to they get five hundred thousand signatures
- 14:28Speaker 14: this petition would get him out of office. Granted, I
- 14:31Speaker 14: don't know how successful it's going to be, but it's
- 14:34Speaker 14: worth the effort. And right now you have lines building
- 14:37Speaker 14: up around certain locations. So if you need information, Katie
- 14:41Speaker 14: Bug Katie, I'm sorry I should say our full name,
- 14:43Speaker 14: Caitlyn Patricia Collins was the person who started this petition,
- 14:47Speaker 14: and so if you're looking for more information, you should
- 14:49Speaker 14: reach out to that. The next thing I want to
- 14:50Speaker 14: talk about before I forget is that Kevin Hart roast.
- 14:53Speaker 14: Have you heard about that?
- 14:54Speaker 5: Uh?
- 14:55Speaker 6: No, they they haven't heard anything about it. Tell us
- 14:57Speaker 6: put his own game.
- 14:58Speaker 14: Okay. So I did fourteen shows a stand up comedy,
- 15:03Speaker 14: and the reason why I stopped doing comedy was because
- 15:05Speaker 14: once I got to the part where it started talking
- 15:07Speaker 14: about roasting, and I realized, oh, twenty six roasting doesn't
- 15:12Speaker 14: look the same as it did during deaf comedy jam
- 15:15Speaker 14: days when people are talking about sneakers or poverty or
- 15:18Speaker 14: whatever it may be. Now it's like, you can say
- 15:21Speaker 14: some things and it really is aligning with the agenda
- 15:24Speaker 14: of the Republican Party, you know what I mean. So
- 15:26Speaker 14: you can't just say these racial jokes anymore without them
- 15:30Speaker 14: holding weight to what's happening right now. And honestly, I
- 15:33Speaker 14: love comedy. I think it's the most beautiful, true telling
- 15:36Speaker 14: thing about the world, and I think it helps us
- 15:38Speaker 14: digestive truth a little bit better. But I think comedy
- 15:41Speaker 14: now looks different. And I guess my question for y'all
- 15:43Speaker 14: that's people who are on the regular and comedians and
- 15:45Speaker 14: especially just hilarious. How do you navigate doing stand up
- 15:49Speaker 14: comedy shows around the racial economy world right now and
- 15:53Speaker 14: not hurting someone's feelings or saying true to which her
- 15:56Speaker 14: political beliefs are while doing this show.
- 15:59Speaker 7: See on this stage, I let it fly like is
- 16:03Speaker 7: is different. Just larious on the radio and just larious
- 16:06Speaker 7: online is very different from just on the stage. I
- 16:08Speaker 7: don't walk on eggshells on stage. I say what I want.
- 16:12Speaker 7: The people come to see me, they know what they're
- 16:14Speaker 7: gonna get, and they're not offended. My audience is not offended.
- 16:17Speaker 7: I talk about any and everything on the stage.
- 16:19Speaker 3: I let it go. But I don't.
- 16:21Speaker 7: I don't incorporate my political views into comedy.
- 16:26Speaker 3: That's just not the type of comic I am.
- 16:28Speaker 14: That's real and honestly, I'm gonna tell you right now.
- 16:30Speaker 14: I aligned with that entremore because one thing that stood
- 16:34Speaker 14: out to me is your audience, like knowing your audience.
- 16:36Speaker 14: And I felt like that Kevin Hart roat thing. It
- 16:38Speaker 14: was like all these white comedians saying all these black jokes.
- 16:41Speaker 14: It's like, well, God, damn, this thrilling, Like what is this?
- 16:45Speaker 14: What is this? And I think Kevin Hart kind of
- 16:47Speaker 14: woke up being like, oh yeah, it was a great night,
- 16:50Speaker 14: and the world is like going crazy. I'm like, I.
- 16:54Speaker 6: Think the reason the reason I wouldn't push back on
- 16:57Speaker 6: the racial jokes is because I want black people to
- 16:59Speaker 6: reason the right to make racial.
- 17:00Speaker 5: Jokes to your jokes.
- 17:03Speaker 6: Okay, you know what I'm saying, are your white supremacist jokes?
- 17:07Speaker 5: Like I need more of that, Like you know what
- 17:10Speaker 5: I'm saying.
- 17:11Speaker 14: I mean, I guess, but even that's tricky, right because
- 17:14Speaker 14: like I don't know, Like when I tried to do
- 17:16Speaker 14: the roasting thing, it just it just didn't align with
- 17:19Speaker 14: my spirit because it's like I'm a storyteller comedian, Like
- 17:22Speaker 14: I like to tell a long winded story and then boom,
- 17:24Speaker 14: that's why you laughing. I think the I just think
- 17:27Speaker 14: the roasting thing has become the main thing. Like I've
- 17:30Speaker 14: never watched up for the wild Out never, I've never
- 17:33Speaker 14: seen that wall out and it never appears to me,
- 17:35Speaker 14: appealed to me. So it was just the roasting thing
- 17:38Speaker 14: has become the new thing. And I just missed the
- 17:40Speaker 14: storytelling in comedy, and that.
- 17:43Speaker 6: Was a hey hey, hey, hey, hey, hey hey hey.
- 17:44Speaker 6: We only have much so much time that I gotta
- 17:48Speaker 6: put the red light on you used to do standing up.
- 17:50Speaker 6: I gotta put the red light on you right now.
- 17:52Speaker 14: Okay, I'm doing a dance class next week for people
- 17:56Speaker 14: in New Orleans. Uh, dance bout of New Orleans did
- 17:59Speaker 14: not happening again, but we're gonna do a dance class. Everybody.

- 18:34Speaker 5: Yeah, up the night at midnight.
- 18:36Speaker 15: Well, I mean technically it's the fourteen that comes on
- 18:39Speaker 15: to fifteen, you know what I mean. But there's a
- 18:41Speaker 15: leak in the over your camp because we haven't heard a.
- 18:43Speaker 3: Song and is a big leak.
- 18:45Speaker 15: We're gonna talk about it though, because I don't know
- 18:47Speaker 15: if this was the one the leak we're going to
- 18:48Speaker 15: talk about.
- 18:49Speaker 6: It was a leak, it was. It was the Drake
- 18:52Speaker 6: time stamp record. This is what he does before he drops, you.
- 18:54Speaker 3: Know what, Let's get into the latest later.
- 18:57Speaker 5: Okay, club, I think you'll talk ll cool back.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not dumbing myself down. I'm being myself.
- 19:07Speaker 15: I'm the home ground that knows a little bit about
- 19:09Speaker 15: everything and everything the little.
- 19:12Speaker 3: Brown girls look at you and go, I want to
- 19:13Speaker 3: be like you.
- 19:14Speaker 7: Take me that the latest.
- 19:20Speaker 1: On the Breakfast Club talk to me.
- 19:24Speaker 15: So yesterday there was an alleged quotation leak from a
- 19:29Speaker 15: Drake album or a Drake song, or of a Drake song.
- 19:31Speaker 3: One Am at Albany. Now we are only a day away.
- 19:34Speaker 15: As I mentioned from Iceman dropping and this is a
- 19:38Speaker 15: time stamp record. Drake does these traditionally. We've seen them
- 19:41Speaker 15: with other projects.
- 19:42Speaker 5: Every time.
- 19:42Speaker 6: Every time he before he drops the album or project,
- 19:45Speaker 6: he drops the time stamp record.
- 19:46Speaker 5: For the most part, yes, for.
- 19:47Speaker 15: The most part. Now let's get into some of the
- 19:49Speaker 15: shots that he's throwing. So first of course, he throws
- 19:52Speaker 15: some shots at Kendrick, and then he goes into uh,
- 19:56Speaker 15: he continues, he throws shots at Lebron.
- 19:58Speaker 5: Uh.
- 19:58Speaker 15: There's another shot that he takes at Lebron. He talks
- 20:00Speaker 15: about switching teams. He's talking about the pop out, and
- 20:04Speaker 15: then he takes a shot at Lucian Grange, who is
- 20:07Speaker 15: the big boss over there at Universal Music Group, who
- 20:09Speaker 15: Drake is actively in a lawsuit with, and Doctor Dre
- 20:14Speaker 15: d r.
- 20:15Speaker 3: E without the a ky like Doctor Drain.
- 20:20Speaker 15: Well, he's talking about the high five that Doctor Dre
- 20:22Speaker 15: did at the Grammys when Kendrick was taking all those
- 20:24Speaker 15: you know, but there has been some alleged there's been
- 20:27Speaker 15: some conversation around what age Michelle A was when doctor
- 20:30Speaker 15: j Michelle started dating. So I think that's what he's
- 20:33Speaker 15: trying to bring up the conversation around. But how did y'all, how.
- 20:35Speaker 6: Would he bring that up when people say that about him?
- 20:38Speaker 6: That wouldn't be smart.
- 20:39Speaker 15: Well, he's saying on this on the bar, he's saying,
- 20:41Speaker 15: there's a special place in ht double hockey six for
- 20:43Speaker 15: people who laugh at things.
- 20:44Speaker 3: And then you know, have done things themselves that.
- 20:47Speaker 5: Well, we can talk about that.
- 20:50Speaker 3: But how did y'll feel about what y'all heard? He
- 20:55Speaker 3: definitely took some shots, man, I mean, and did we?
- 20:58Speaker 8: Uh?
- 20:59Speaker 3: He he took shot, said Joe too.
- 21:02Speaker 5: But yeah, feel about what I heard? Let me think
- 21:04Speaker 5: about this question.
- 21:07Speaker 3: What about the switching teams?
- 21:08Speaker 5: But yo, you know, I hope this this is what
- 21:11Speaker 5: I feel.
- 21:11Speaker 6: I hope this isn't what Iceman is about, because if
- 21:14Speaker 6: it is, I'm going to just assume we calling Drake
- 21:16Speaker 6: Iceman because he's frozen in time. Okay, It's like, bruh,
- 21:19Speaker 6: get over the l you took the Kendrick already, because
- 21:22Speaker 6: this record just continues the conversation that Drake is the
- 21:24Speaker 6: biggest sore loser rappers ever seen.
- 21:27Speaker 3: But are you supposed to stop?
- 21:29Speaker 7: Like what if you got some more to say, You're
- 21:31Speaker 7: just supposed to keep it on the tub.
- 21:32Speaker 15: He's saying the same things though, like I just wish
- 21:35Speaker 15: that we didn't get with it. I missed and I
- 21:36Speaker 15: think it would have been a bigger explosion if this
- 21:38Speaker 15: was our first time hearing how he felt.
- 21:40Speaker 5: But it more if he had more to say. He
- 21:42Speaker 5: didn't have to wave the white flag.
- 21:43Speaker 6: Two years ago. He's the one who put out the
- 21:45Speaker 6: hard part six to wave the white flag. He didn't
- 21:46Speaker 6: have to do that if he had more to say.
- 21:48Speaker 7: But he been sitting on some some words. He had
- 21:50Speaker 7: to get some things off his chest.
- 21:52Speaker 6: And then you talked about whatever the dre line was.
- 21:55Speaker 6: But it's like Drake told Kendrick, he needs to read
- 21:58Speaker 6: the Bible, and the blast he talks about me its
- 22:01Speaker 6: his amazing grace cone be delayed. The Bible also talks
- 22:04Speaker 6: about hypocrisy, Drake, and you are very hypocritical, okay when
- 22:08Speaker 6: it comes to how this battle went, because you be
- 22:10Speaker 6: acting like you didn't say salacious things about him and
- 22:13Speaker 6: your disrecord.
- 22:14Speaker 5: Y'all both went to hell on each.
- 22:15Speaker 6: Other, but one of definitely, but one of y'all has
- 22:17Speaker 6: moved on in the other habit. And it's just like,
- 22:20Speaker 6: don't let your set back become your identity. That's what
- 22:22Speaker 6: I feel when I hear this record, Like God, dang,
- 22:25Speaker 6: I'm still talking about this.
- 22:26Speaker 3: I hope this was his final healing song. And this
- 22:29Speaker 3: won't be the.
- 22:31Speaker 6: Healing from lothering a rat battle, yes yo, yes damn.
- 22:38Speaker 15: And we talked about ya and mental health goes into
- 22:43Speaker 15: rat battles apparently.
- 22:45Speaker 5: Okay, you're right, Okay, I wish him well, I wish
- 22:48Speaker 5: him healing.
- 22:49Speaker 6: I just hope that's not what ice Man is about.
- 22:52Speaker 5: There's been time to move the page.
- 22:54Speaker 15: I'm a Drake fan, but this I listened to this
- 22:56Speaker 15: and I was like, that was it. That was what
- 22:58Speaker 15: we got before this, Like it was records are normally
- 23:01Speaker 15: so like.
- 23:01Speaker 6: No, no no, no, no, no no, we're talking about just wrap.
- 23:04Speaker 6: No phenomenal rap, phenomenal wrapper. That's not anybody debating. That
- 23:09Speaker 6: is ridiculous. I'm not debating that. What I'm saying is
- 23:12Speaker 6: what are we talking about and why? That's what I'm
- 23:15Speaker 6: looking forward to. Iceman, you know what we talk about.
- 23:17Speaker 3: You just heard it like this what we talk about?
- 23:19Speaker 1: Why?
- 23:20Speaker 15: Again, Drake is a phenomenal rapper that is not up
- 23:22Speaker 15: for debate. He's always going to do the things that
- 23:24Speaker 15: he does, right, flip it, tricking all stuff like.
- 23:27Speaker 3: The hell's wrong with you? You know what she did?
- 23:31Speaker 5: Yeah it flipp smack it up, flip.
- 23:37Speaker 15: I just hope that we get we get some other
- 23:39Speaker 15: things from him. I don't know what else you want
- 23:40Speaker 15: to hear him talk about, though, If I'm being honest,
- 23:42Speaker 15: but I would love to hear it.
- 23:43Speaker 5: I like hearing them rap, but the content he shose
- 23:45Speaker 5: the address is very, very very mid bro very men.
- 23:49Speaker 6: Once again, don't let your set back become your identity.
- 23:53Speaker 5: God damn, like.
- 23:54Speaker 6: It got to be people in the studio telling him
- 23:56Speaker 6: a right man, get over it already.
- 23:58Speaker 15: And what them label me is looking like around the album?
- 24:00Speaker 15: If you you're coming for Lucien.
- 24:03Speaker 7: As you know, that's what my concern is, like that,
- 24:07Speaker 7: like you're coming for the guy that you're you know,
- 24:10Speaker 7: the label head.
- 24:11Speaker 5: You think Lucian cares know.
- 24:13Speaker 7: But it's like, but can't they do something like to
- 24:16Speaker 7: you know what I mean? Can they stop at the
- 24:17Speaker 7: blackness and type of way?
- 24:18Speaker 5: And would they want to? They're gonna eat regardless.
- 24:21Speaker 6: Well, they're no permanent friends and enemies when it comes
- 24:23Speaker 6: to business. Were the only idiots that think like that?
- 24:26Speaker 5: Not we?
- 24:27Speaker 3: I'm not we stop It's okay we idiots. No, we
- 24:32Speaker 3: is not.
- 24:35Speaker 5: Enemy when it comes to business.
- 24:36Speaker 15: Well, I am looking forward to ice Man to hear
- 24:38Speaker 15: about what else Drake has to talk to us about.
- 24:41Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to anyone forty this year.
- 24:44Speaker 6: Yeah, I need I want to hear more. I'm Okay,
- 24:48Speaker 6: I'm okay you. Yeah, you took hell in a rat battle.
- 24:51Speaker 6: You're mad at everybody because of it. It's time to
- 24:53Speaker 6: move on.
- 24:54Speaker 5: Bro. Can you keep trying to reheat these cold French fries?
- 24:57Speaker 5: You can't even with air fry?
- 24:59Speaker 6: Okay, Jesus meet me, Bro coming back with Front Page News.
- 25:04Speaker 5: It's the World's most dangerous morning show to Breakfast Club.
- 25:06Speaker 15: The blackfac Podcast Festival once again returned to Atlanta for
- 25:10Speaker 15: another celebration of black voices, culture, storytelling, and community. The
- 25:14Speaker 15: festival also hosted the Black Marketplace presented by Shopify.
- 25:18Speaker 3: We're black on.
- 25:18Speaker 15: Entrepreneurs set up shop to promote and sell their products.
- 25:24Speaker 3: That's the rough, walk me through the business.
- 25:27Speaker 16: So I am a singer songwriter, okay, and so this
- 25:29Speaker 16: brand was inspired by music.
- 25:31Speaker 3: And me got you.
- 25:32Speaker 15: I want to smell from candles. Let's get into the thing.
- 25:35Speaker 15: Which one is your absolute favorite? Let's start with that one.
- 25:37Speaker 16: Let's start with a night off, because I think no
- 25:40Speaker 16: matter if you're a music lover or not, everybody can
- 25:43Speaker 16: appreciate if.
- 25:44Speaker 3: You breathe as a human, you need a night off.
- 25:46Speaker 16: Everybody appreciates a night off.
- 25:47Speaker 3: Smell that. Oh my god, do you make these like
- 25:52Speaker 3: like naturally yes, and I.
- 25:54Speaker 16: Kind of compose them the same way I do music.
- 25:56Speaker 6: Right.
- 25:56Speaker 16: I wanted to take you through a journey. The cool
- 25:58Speaker 16: thing about him is they all come with the QR
- 26:00Speaker 16: cold that takes you to original music and a curative
- 26:02Speaker 16: playlist for every camper.
- 26:03Speaker 3: Wow, and it lifts through Shopify. Yeah.
- 26:06Speaker 16: I am a creative and so I chose Shopify because
- 26:09Speaker 16: I wanted something easy, something that would allow me to
- 26:12Speaker 16: build systems and allow me to still be creative while
- 26:15Speaker 16: the business ran on the back end of Shopify makes
- 26:17Speaker 16: that extremely easy to maneuver and.
- 26:20Speaker 5: To work with.
- 26:20Speaker 16: I've got the website, I've got a place that can
- 26:22Speaker 16: track the sales, I get data and reporting. It gives
- 26:25Speaker 16: me everything at my fingertips and allows me to still
- 26:28Speaker 16: be creative in the process. Shopify has allowed me to
- 26:30Speaker 16: see what customers are gravitating towards. It allows me to
- 26:34Speaker 16: see what's working and what's not working. And if I
- 26:37Speaker 16: didn't have that, I think my life will be a
- 26:39Speaker 16: hot mess. It is the perfect place to start. It
- 26:42Speaker 16: is the perfect place to especially if you're creative, to
- 26:45Speaker 16: still get your creative juices out while having a platform
- 26:48Speaker 16: that really supports you and allows you to have the
- 26:50Speaker 16: business in order. So I think Shopify for me has
- 26:53Speaker 16: been a lifesaver and I'd recommend it to anybody.
- 26:55Speaker 3: Start now, what is me and greet?
- 26:58Speaker 16: This is very warm and it really sets the space.
- 27:02Speaker 3: For it feels like a hug. It sounds like a hug,
- 27:04Speaker 3: that's what it.
- 27:05Speaker 15: She gets Ela and it's like, yeah, it's very like coke, cooke,
- 27:09Speaker 15: flutter and bird worn.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 27:11Speaker 16: So I wanted to show people the connection between sen
- 27:16Speaker 16: and sounds. So this is original music here.
- 27:18Speaker 15: So like when people are buying candles, is there certain
- 27:20Speaker 15: songs you suggest with the candle as well too?
- 27:23Speaker 3: There are?
- 27:24Speaker 16: And I've actually on the playlist, I've got original music
- 27:26Speaker 16: tied in, so so you get some of your favorite
- 27:28Speaker 16: artists out there, right, Yeah, but then my original music
- 27:31Speaker 16: and sprinkled throughout the playlist as well.
- 27:33Speaker 3: I love that. I love that.
- 27:34Speaker 5: Oh my god.
- 27:35Speaker 3: In jazz lounge, I see, so you're big jazz fan.
- 27:37Speaker 1: H yes.
- 27:37Speaker 16: I studied vocal jazz in college and this one reminds me.
- 27:41Speaker 3: It's like a old to my childhood. My growing up.
- 27:44Speaker 3: My mother was a singer and so you know those
- 27:48Speaker 3: sins from like when you were younger.
- 27:50Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 27:50Speaker 1: Nostalgic.
- 27:51Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very nostalgia. This is mom's favorite.
- 27:53Speaker 15: Okay, hey Mom, because I'm telling that, I'm like, this
- 27:55Speaker 15: gives me like Anita Baker on the Sundays, you know
- 27:58Speaker 15: what I mean, playing the music seton Ah.
- 28:00Speaker 11: Yes, the.
- 28:02Speaker 3: Congratulations of course.
- 28:04Speaker 4: In fact, thank you so much.

- 28:25Speaker 6: to one thirteen. Okay, Cleveland is up three to two
- 28:28Speaker 6: in NA series. Everybody that listens to the Breakfast Club

- 28:32Speaker 5: Detroit on w JLB. Oh Hurrie, okay, mambe Brown, what
- 28:36Speaker 5: we got?
- 28:37Speaker 9: All right? Good morning everyone, How y'all doing good?
- 28:39Speaker 3: Mone Good morning, me morning.
- 28:41Speaker 9: Okay.
- 28:41Speaker 8: So we start this hour with growing concerns that immigration
- 28:45Speaker 8: fears could impact the attendance and tourism of the FIFA
- 28:48Speaker 8: World Cup here in the United States.
- 28:51Speaker 9: It's giving Super Bowl vibes. So this is a conversation.
- 28:55Speaker 8: It's picking up fast because the tournament is now less
- 28:57Speaker 8: than a month away. Homeland Security of fish, they say
- 29:00Speaker 8: ICE agents could be present around some of the Cup
- 29:04Speaker 8: stadiums as part of a broader security operation during the games.
- 29:07Speaker 8: But here's the part that's getting a lot of attention
- 29:09Speaker 8: this morning. The government is not saying that ICE agents
- 29:12Speaker 8: can't make immigration arrest outside or near the World Cup stadiums.
- 29:18Speaker 8: Let's listen to Homeland Security Secretary Mark queen Mullen or more.
- 29:22Speaker 10: Going to be enforcing mass immigration, but we're there go
- 29:25Speaker 10: to enforce the laws to.
- 29:29Speaker 3: Custom we find a criminal, you will arrest them.
- 29:32Speaker 8: But the mission at the World Cup is not immigration enforcement.
- 29:36Speaker 5: We're not there.
- 29:37Speaker 10: Well, ICE always said the immigration enforcement. We're always going
- 29:40Speaker 10: to do that, but we're not there for solely that purpose.
- 29:42Speaker 10: We're in there to do our job. As I said,
- 29:44Speaker 10: We're not there to go round up mass individuals, but
- 29:47Speaker 10: we are always looking for the worst of the worst.
- 29:50Speaker 5: We're going to continue to do that. But the ICE is.
- 29:53Speaker 10: A footprint is much bigger than that. As I said,
- 29:57Speaker 10: it's immigration custom enforcement.
- 30:00Speaker 6: Do they really think some of the most dangerous criminals,
- 30:02Speaker 6: the worst of the worst is he says, do they
- 30:04Speaker 6: really think that they're going to show up to the.
- 30:06Speaker 5: Fief of World Cup?
- 30:08Speaker 6: If I'm the worst of the worst of the criminal
- 30:10Speaker 6: I'm gonna go to the FIFA World Cup.
- 30:11Speaker 5: I know they're gonna be out there looking for me.
- 30:14Speaker 15: Celebrate freedom right for the time you have it.
- 30:17Speaker 8: It makes no sense really when you think about it,
- 30:20Speaker 8: and immigrants and immigrant rights advocates, they say that the
- 30:23Speaker 8: presence of ICE, it's just going to discourage people and
- 30:26Speaker 8: families and international visitors from attending all together, especially after
- 30:30Speaker 8: the Trump administration, you know, their aggressive immigration crackdown over
- 30:34Speaker 8: the last year. But all of this is coming as
- 30:37Speaker 8: host cities they're already you know, saying that they're not
- 30:41Speaker 8: getting those hotel bookings, they're not getting the flights that
- 30:44Speaker 8: they thought that they were going to get, and they
- 30:46Speaker 8: think it's all tied to immigration enforcement and the international tension.
- 30:50Speaker 8: So people might not be there anyway, and it also could be.
- 30:53Speaker 5: To asking the economy.
- 30:53Speaker 6: People may not have the extra money to go to
- 30:56Speaker 6: the FIFA World Cup.
- 30:57Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, very expensive, especially in New York. You know,
- 31:01Speaker 7: they what tripling to and it's gonna be crazy.
- 31:06Speaker 15: Tells what, I just put money on my easy pass
- 31:09Speaker 15: like last week.
- 31:10Speaker 3: Today it's at low balance.
- 31:12Speaker 15: I'm like, how normally that amount of money lasts me
- 31:14Speaker 15: almost the whole month.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Oh hell yeah.
- 31:18Speaker 7: No, TODs are going up, steadily, steadily going up. But
- 31:21Speaker 7: in the fifth World Cup is gonna be even crazier
- 31:24Speaker 7: for people to get to work all of that.
- 31:26Speaker 3: People just might have to call off work the whole week.
- 31:28Speaker 15: This is what my grandma used to tell me about
- 31:30Speaker 15: all the time. She'd be like, times are going to change,
- 31:32Speaker 15: make sure you save some money.
- 31:34Speaker 5: Yeah, God bless it that.
- 31:35Speaker 6: My grandma was saying that in the eighties nineties too,
- 31:37Speaker 6: she was saying, this, this is the worst I've ever
- 31:39Speaker 6: seen it.
- 31:39Speaker 3: Yes, it's always the worst at the time that it
- 31:44Speaker 3: should be, like it's the end of time.
- 31:50Speaker 6: Always say God coming back if it was Jesus, would
- 31:54Speaker 6: you come back for what?
- 31:55Speaker 11: Yes?
- 31:58Speaker 5: Jus.
- 32:00Speaker 8: Well, speaking of money, if you had Expinity or Comcast
- 32:03Speaker 8: internet service over the last few years, you may be
- 32:05Speaker 8: eligible to get some money back from a settlement tied
- 32:08Speaker 8: to a data breach. So Comcast has agreed to pay
- 32:11Speaker 8: one hundred and seventeen and a half million dollars dollar
- 32:14Speaker 8: settlement after hackers gained access to your personal information belonging
- 32:19Speaker 8: to millions of Exfinity customers. So the lawsuit accuses Comcasts
- 32:24Speaker 8: of failing to protect your customer data, and that Comcast,
- 32:27Speaker 8: of course they are denying any wrongdoing.
- 32:30Speaker 9: But and here's the thing that you need to remember, or.
- 32:33Speaker 8: The thing that I want to make sure that I
- 32:34Speaker 8: stress not every Comcast customer is going to qualify.
- 32:38Speaker 9: And this is only going to.
- 32:39Speaker 8: Work for people who received a data breach notification from
- 32:43Speaker 8: Comcasts back in December of twenty twenty three saying that
- 32:46Speaker 8: their information may have been exposed. And when I say
- 32:49Speaker 8: sensitive information, I mean usernames, passwords, contact and foe birthdays,
- 32:53Speaker 8: last four of your social But if you qualify, you
- 32:56Speaker 8: may be able to get reimbursed for things like fraud
- 32:58Speaker 8: related expenses, identity theft costs, and time spent trying to
- 33:01Speaker 8: get all that stuff together.
- 33:03Speaker 9: And some people can receive a.
- 33:04Speaker 8: Check up to ten thousand dollars damn document real losses
- 33:08Speaker 8: connected to the hat.
- 33:09Speaker 7: Yes, definitely had all of them services exactly like the last.
- 33:13Speaker 9: Thing is so.
- 33:15Speaker 8: Also, if you don't have receipts, there is a smaller
- 33:18Speaker 8: flat payment option and that's about fifty dollars.
- 33:21Speaker 5: So what most people?
- 33:24Speaker 7: Yeah, because don't nobody heat receipts, especially not no damn
- 33:27Speaker 7: black people.
- 33:27Speaker 3: What is happening?
- 33:28Speaker 17: Yeah?
- 33:29Speaker 8: But and the deadline to file this claim is August fourteenth,
- 33:33Speaker 8: So you guys don't want to get on, let me get.
- 33:35Speaker 3: Somebody to make some receipts.
- 33:36Speaker 14: You know.
- 33:37Speaker 5: That's why when you get your receipts email to you.
- 33:40Speaker 8: Oh, because then you're searching your phone it's already there.
- 33:45Speaker 9: So just something to note you guys.
- 33:47Speaker 8: And lastly, Laura will ask you did you notice something
- 33:50Speaker 8: in your Instagram yesterday?
- 33:52Speaker 3: Yes? I did, and I don't like that feature.
- 33:53Speaker 9: I hate it.
- 33:54Speaker 3: What is it?
- 33:55Speaker 15: It's called instance? It's something right, Yeah, I want to
- 33:57Speaker 15: make you shut up. We talked about what made you
- 34:01Speaker 15: go ball be here all day? Talk about let go
- 34:08Speaker 15: of his hair in his twenties is crazy?
- 34:12Speaker 8: No, So so it's a new feature. Instagram just rolled
- 34:15Speaker 8: it out. It's called instance, like you were saying, and
- 34:17Speaker 8: it lets users send like unedited photos directly to your friends.
- 34:21Speaker 8: Let's listen to the Instagram ceo really quick explain.
- 34:25Speaker 1: How does it work?
- 34:25Speaker 17: Well, you go to the d M tab and this
- 34:27Speaker 17: little pile of these photos in the bottom right. If
- 34:29Speaker 17: you tap on that, you can actually see instance from
- 34:31Speaker 17: your friends and also send a photo to your friends.
- 34:34Speaker 17: Once people see that photo, it disappears and they can't
- 34:37Speaker 17: screenshot it.
- 34:40Speaker 9: That's exactly what people are saying. But it's so confusing.
- 34:45Speaker 8: I feel like an old lady trying to figure out,
- 34:46Speaker 8: like where these photos were coming from.
- 34:49Speaker 3: This setup is weird.
- 34:50Speaker 15: It's just we didn't need it, and then you can
- 34:53Speaker 15: already send stuff on Instagram DM because it's supposed to
- 34:56Speaker 15: be like it disappears right away, so it can be
- 34:58Speaker 15: like invisible, which is sneaky to me. You can already
- 35:01Speaker 15: do invisible sins on Instagram through the DM, so it's like,
- 35:04Speaker 15: why add this extra photo feature?
- 35:06Speaker 7: But I don't get it because when I opened up
- 35:07Speaker 7: my d MS, it was like a pile of white women,
- 35:10Speaker 7: Like it wasn't.
- 35:11Speaker 3: Even like friends that I'm like, you don't barely follow
- 35:15Speaker 3: anybody yet, so they probably just automated.
- 35:17Speaker 7: Okay, I'm like, why, it's just like a stack of them.
- 35:22Speaker 15: I was like, dangn yeah, I don't. I don't really
- 35:24Speaker 15: care for the feature. I don't see the benefit.
- 35:26Speaker 9: That's what a lot of people are saying online this
- 35:28Speaker 9: morning that nobody asked for this.
- 35:30Speaker 15: So but people felt like that about threads in the beginning,
- 35:33Speaker 15: and now threads people my father.
- 35:39Speaker 3: Another version of Reddit.
- 35:40Speaker 6: Yeah, but I don't like it because I don't care
- 35:42Speaker 6: about your opinions like that. That's why I don't be
- 35:44Speaker 6: on Twitter. So I don't want opinion. I don't want
- 35:45Speaker 6: to see what y'all got there. I don't care about
- 35:48Speaker 6: all the words.
- 35:49Speaker 15: There's word Twitter, there's in word threads, a little bit
- 35:53Speaker 15: about there, a little bit LinkedIn, a little bit.
- 35:55Speaker 6: Above that got my Instagram fields exactly the way I
- 35:57Speaker 6: want it. I don't want to see what y'all thinking
- 35:59Speaker 6: on threat.
- 36:00Speaker 5: I don't like it. I don't like it.
- 36:01Speaker 3: They have some thods about that.
- 36:04Speaker 9: Okay, all right, y'all. Well that is your front page news.

- 36:25Speaker 6: now called It All Starts When You Do How to
- 36:27Speaker 6: do the Real work of self healing. I like Kierre's
- 36:30Speaker 6: story because he started off on social media. He went
- 36:33Speaker 6: viral like eighty nine years ago because of a video
- 36:35Speaker 6: with his daughter. But then he, you know, decided to
- 36:38Speaker 6: become a licensed tapist. So we'll be talking to kre
- 36:41Speaker 6: Games when we come back. As to Breakfast Club, yeah,
- 36:43Speaker 6: it's one of them. Danger's going to show the Breakfast
- 36:45Speaker 6: Club Charlamagne to God DJ Nvy just hilarious envying just
- 36:48Speaker 6: on here. But Lauren LaRosa is we got a special
- 36:50Speaker 6: guest in the building.
- 36:51Speaker 18: Man.
- 36:52Speaker 6: I have been watching his brothers work for a long time.
- 36:54Speaker 6: He's got a new podcast called Learn the Hard Way.
- 36:57Speaker 5: It's Care Games.
- 36:58Speaker 1: Yes, sir, what's that right?
- 36:59Speaker 19: Right?
- 36:59Speaker 5: Because the perfecta How are you, my brother?
- 37:02Speaker 1: I'm good. How y'all doing?
- 37:03Speaker 16: Man?
- 37:03Speaker 5: Unless black and highly favored, I know that's right. Man.
- 37:06Speaker 6: If you don't know who Care is, he's a mental
- 37:08Speaker 6: health advocate and he is a licensed therapist.
- 37:12Speaker 5: Feel like it's very important to say that now.
- 37:13Speaker 1: I feel like that's a hot topic at the moment
- 37:16Speaker 1: I would say, so.
- 37:17Speaker 6: You know, I wanted to add we're in an era
- 37:19Speaker 6: where social media has turned a lot of people into
- 37:22Speaker 6: mental health influence for sure. How important is licensing when
- 37:25Speaker 6: somebody is giving you know, relationship or trauma advice to
- 37:29Speaker 6: millions of people.
- 37:31Speaker 18: You know, I personally find it important to be licensed
- 37:35Speaker 18: for myself. It's important because it makes sure that it
- 37:38Speaker 18: makes sure that I'm ethically sound, make sure that people
- 37:40Speaker 18: are safe around me, make sure that I'm continuing all
- 37:43Speaker 18: my education credits, make sure I'm getting all the training,
- 37:45Speaker 18: because it's one thing. You know, we got a lot
- 37:47Speaker 18: of therapeutic language being slang about people calling you gas
- 37:51Speaker 18: light there, narcissists, and we got all the words, but
- 37:55Speaker 18: people don't really know what happens next.
- 37:57Speaker 6: In terms of Healey wants no solutions.
- 38:01Speaker 18: We just spending a problem we're talking about a while,
- 38:03Speaker 18: but not necessarily deeply. So for me to be licensed,
- 38:07Speaker 18: it make sure that if somebody walks in the room
- 38:09Speaker 18: and says, hey, man, you know, I feel like I'm
- 38:11Speaker 18: gonna jump off the top of the building the night.
- 38:13Speaker 18: What you're gonna do next? What's your next move? What's
- 38:16Speaker 18: your next move? A man comes in and says, man,
- 38:18Speaker 18: I'm feeling like hurting my wife.
- 38:19Speaker 1: What you're gonna do? What's your next move?
- 38:22Speaker 18: Or that psycho Bible doesn't help when you got to
- 38:24Speaker 18: be in a room with somebody and feel your way
- 38:26Speaker 18: around that person, have quality training to back that up.
- 38:30Speaker 18: So when we got all the words but we don't
- 38:32Speaker 18: got any wisdom, that's like having a map with no
- 38:35Speaker 18: wait points and no words on it. You'll know that
- 38:38Speaker 18: things are there, but you have no idea where you
- 38:39Speaker 18: are where to go.
- 38:41Speaker 6: Do audiences even understand the difference between a licensed therapist,
- 38:44Speaker 6: a life coach or relationship expert. Are a motivational speaker anymore?
- 38:48Speaker 6: Has social media blurred all.
- 38:50Speaker 18: Those I don't think so. Social media is not a
- 38:52Speaker 18: place for a dynamic nuance. So not only do people
- 38:55Speaker 18: not know, I honestly don't think that people can. And
- 38:58Speaker 18: that's one of the things that I really honed in
- 39:01Speaker 18: on when I talk on my platforms because therapy. Being
- 39:05Speaker 18: a licensed clinician is a specific thing, and it's a
- 39:08Speaker 18: specific designation by the state that says that you passed
- 39:11Speaker 18: all your exams and you're doing all these things you
- 39:13Speaker 18: need to do to make sure that you're upholding all
- 39:16Speaker 18: the ethical principles of the craft.
- 39:19Speaker 1: And that's that's amazing.
- 39:20Speaker 18: When when people are hurting, sometimes they just want to
- 39:22Speaker 18: hear from somebody, But you got to hear from somebody
- 39:25Speaker 18: qualified and train and steep in the knowledge to know
- 39:28Speaker 18: not just what everything is and what sounds good, but
- 39:31Speaker 18: what is the best practice to help move you.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Forward in life.
- 39:34Speaker 15: I was when we were getting ready for did you
- 39:36Speaker 15: share an interview with doctor Shanne Bryant?
- 39:37Speaker 1: I saw clips, Okay, So.
- 39:39Speaker 15: When we were getting ready for that interview, I called
- 39:40Speaker 15: one of my friends. Her name is doctor Shonda Reynolds,
- 39:43Speaker 15: and she was saying that to me because I was
- 39:45Speaker 15: mentioning it. Yes my sister, like we went to high
- 39:49Speaker 15: school together like all of that, but yeah, she was.
- 39:51Speaker 15: She helped me prep for that interview because there was
- 39:53Speaker 15: so many different things that you.
- 39:55Speaker 3: Have to go through.
- 39:55Speaker 15: Very nuanced there, it is right, But we were having
- 39:58Speaker 15: a conversation about, like there are studies about that EPPP
- 40:01Speaker 15: test that excuse differently to black people that are trying
- 40:04Speaker 15: to be licensed than others, and that's why some people
- 40:07Speaker 15: don't go for certain licensse or whatever, which is a
- 40:09Speaker 15: different conversation doctor Shan Bryant. But she was talking about
- 40:12Speaker 15: just how it's the conversation we're having with doctor Shan
- 40:15Speaker 15: Bryant takes away from the conversation we should be having
- 40:18Speaker 15: about the real issues that some people have getting licensed.
- 40:21Speaker 15: And I know your license as a therapist, so I
- 40:23Speaker 15: don't know if you have anything that you've experienced when
- 40:24Speaker 15: you were going through your process.
- 40:26Speaker 18: Not anything to that extent, But licensure is incredibly challenging
- 40:30Speaker 18: to get through. I don't think people understand how much schooling,
- 40:33Speaker 18: how many how many hours of practic coming, how many
- 40:38Speaker 18: hours of internship you have to undergo, and then the
- 40:40Speaker 18: test itself is difficult, and then the licensing board, and
- 40:43Speaker 18: then you have to sit for a certain number of
- 40:45Speaker 18: direct and indirect hours, which means a therapist who is
- 40:49Speaker 18: more experienced than you sits in with you every week
- 40:52Speaker 18: and you talk about your sessions, what went well, didn't
- 40:55Speaker 18: go well, And it could be challenging for a number
- 40:59Speaker 18: of reasons because sometimes you can only you know, you
- 41:01Speaker 18: rise to the level of your help. If you don't
- 41:02Speaker 18: have incredible supervision, it's going to dictate how thorough and
- 41:06Speaker 18: how effective you are as a therapist in the long run.
- 41:09Speaker 18: But even with doctor Seannah, she's psychologists. Psychologists is different
- 41:13Speaker 18: than a licensed therapist. Psychologists as a scientist life, a
- 41:17Speaker 18: therapists is a practitioner. They're therapists who want psychologists and
- 41:20Speaker 18: they're psychologists who aren't therapists.
- 41:22Speaker 1: It's incredibly nuanced and deep.
- 41:25Speaker 18: So yeah, I think this conversation is important that we're
- 41:28Speaker 18: having about license year and making sure that ethical guidelines
- 41:31Speaker 18: are held in attact. But there are so many other
- 41:34Speaker 18: conversations that happen on the inside of the public doesn't
- 41:37Speaker 18: even know about, like what like how a lot of
- 41:41Speaker 18: therapeutic modalities are not really normed.
- 41:43Speaker 1: On black people.
- 41:45Speaker 3: Talk about that, Doctor Shannon talks about.
- 41:47Speaker 18: That, Yeah, they're not normal on black people. When a
- 41:49Speaker 18: lot of modalities are steeped in psychology and they take
- 41:53Speaker 18: a group of people who they study and the people
- 41:56Speaker 18: who they study and weren't black, and there's this thing, man, man,
- 42:00Speaker 18: there's this thing in therapy that happens when people don't
- 42:04Speaker 18: have cultural competency. Yes, and that means like you can
- 42:08Speaker 18: come into the room and you can see a black man,
- 42:10Speaker 18: and then you can see like an a South Pacific woman,
- 42:14Speaker 18: and you'll say, oh, depression is depression. I'm gonna treat
- 42:16Speaker 18: these people the same way. You may not honor the
- 42:19Speaker 18: fact that where she's from, the hierarchy in the family
- 42:22Speaker 18: looks different. So she may have a different reverence for
- 42:25Speaker 18: her family that might be that might make it harder
- 42:27Speaker 18: for her to say, nah dad, nah mom, I'm gonna
- 42:30Speaker 18: do my own thing. I'm gonna move in my own direction.
- 42:32Speaker 18: Being culturally competent is treating her knowing having that in mind,
- 42:36Speaker 18: knowing how her culture works and how it affects the
- 42:38Speaker 18: way she moves through the world. You may see a
- 42:40Speaker 18: black man and think, oh, you know, you're in therapy,
- 42:43Speaker 18: I need you to talk about all your problems, ignoring
- 42:45Speaker 18: the fact that that black man has lived experience with
- 42:48Speaker 18: a medical system is not treated his ancestors very well.
- 42:50Speaker 18: He walks in therapy skeptical, rightfully so so cultural competence.
- 42:55Speaker 18: He doesn't say, oh, man, you got these problems. You
- 42:57Speaker 18: need to come into therapy and you need to talk
- 42:59Speaker 18: to me because you need to be better. Cultural competency
- 43:02Speaker 18: meets him where he is. It says, ah, I can
- 43:04Speaker 18: see why you're skeptical. Let's take the first three sessions
- 43:07Speaker 18: and get to know each other a little bit. Matter
- 43:08Speaker 18: of fact, I'm gonna tell you a little bit more
- 43:10Speaker 18: about myself. Because what we learn with black therapists have
- 43:13Speaker 18: learned is we get taught when you're in a session
- 43:15Speaker 18: with somebody, you don't do no self disclosure. It's not
- 43:18Speaker 18: about self disclosure, and you're not supposed to talk about yourself.
- 43:21Speaker 1: Which is right to a degree, But when you're in
- 43:22Speaker 1: a room with black.
- 43:23Speaker 18: And brown people, especially black and brown men, you're gonna
- 43:26Speaker 18: expect him to give all that up and you don't
- 43:28Speaker 18: say anything about yourself. That's not gonna work. The robotic
- 43:33Speaker 18: cut off wall of a therapist is a motif that
- 43:36Speaker 18: don't work for black men, don't work for black people,
- 43:39Speaker 18: And if you don't have cultural competency, you would not
- 43:41Speaker 18: know that, you.
- 43:41Speaker 5: Know what's interesting.
- 43:42Speaker 6: And the first time I ever started doing therapy, I
- 43:45Speaker 6: specifically said I didn't want somebody culturally competent.
- 43:48Speaker 5: I wanted somebody that.
- 43:50Speaker 6: Had no idea about our experiences, what we go through,
- 43:54Speaker 6: what I may be going through, because I just wanted
- 43:55Speaker 6: to tell them what I was dealing with, and I
- 43:58Speaker 6: just wanted them to come from like a perspective.
- 44:00Speaker 5: Of nobodyased blank slate, just a blank slate.
- 44:04Speaker 6: It's so it's funny, you said, because I was looking
- 44:06Speaker 6: for an Asian.
- 44:07Speaker 18: Woman specifically, specifically that's very specific, white Asian woman.
- 44:11Speaker 6: Because I just was trying to find like somebody that
- 44:13Speaker 6: I felt like didn't know our experience at all, in
- 44:16Speaker 6: no way, shape or form.
- 44:17Speaker 5: Didn't find one, just want you to know that with
- 44:21Speaker 5: a white woman.
- 44:22Speaker 6: And I was with her for a couple of years
- 44:23Speaker 6: and she was good, But I do feel like what
- 44:26Speaker 6: really really got me to that next level was a
- 44:29Speaker 6: culturally competent black man.
- 44:31Speaker 1: Yeah, and it depends.
- 44:32Speaker 18: A question that floats about a lot is do black
- 44:35Speaker 18: people need black therapists?
- 44:37Speaker 1: And I always say it depends. It's not so much about.
- 44:40Speaker 18: The lived experience of the therapist, it's about the aptitude
- 44:43Speaker 18: of the therapist, number one, how comfortable you are with them.
- 44:46Speaker 18: You know, the most effective therapist I ever had, she
- 44:48Speaker 18: was a sixty five year old white woman. We ain't
- 44:51Speaker 18: had nothing in common, nothing in common, but the way
- 44:54Speaker 18: that she moved in that space, it just so happened
- 44:57Speaker 18: to bounce with the way that I understand, the way
- 44:59Speaker 18: that I absorb information, the way that I take instruction.
- 45:03Speaker 1: So for me, her race and her gender wasn't as
- 45:07Speaker 1: important in order for me to feel comfortable. But that
- 45:10Speaker 1: ain't everybody's story.
- 45:12Speaker 18: And if you do need somebody that looks like you
- 45:14Speaker 18: to be comfortable, then yeah, that's absolutely fine. It's more
- 45:18Speaker 18: so the effectiveness of the therapist is going to be
- 45:20Speaker 18: contingent probably a little bit more on what you find
- 45:24Speaker 18: acceptable to share all your information with, where you feel
- 45:27Speaker 18: nice and comfy in the session, versus some standard rule
- 45:31Speaker 18: of law that just applies across the board.
- 45:34Speaker 15: For a lot of people, it's like, even if you
- 45:35Speaker 15: know you need to do something, it's like figuring out
- 45:38Speaker 15: who is the person? Like where do you go? How
- 45:40Speaker 15: do you even start? Like I talk to people all
- 45:43Speaker 15: the time about like even finding therapists. It's like you're
- 45:45Speaker 15: trying people out. It's like random recommendation, like it is,
- 45:49Speaker 15: but it gets to a point sometimes where it's shut up, Yeah, no,
- 45:55Speaker 15: it's all right, I got you right here.
- 45:58Speaker 1: Yeah, it's cool.
- 46:00Speaker 3: Conversation about figuring out a therapist.
- 46:01Speaker 15: It can be kind of not not it doesn't scare you,
- 46:05Speaker 15: but it's just it's such a task trying to find
- 46:08Speaker 15: the right fit. That definitely sometimes even though you know
- 46:12Speaker 15: you need to do it, and so it's not as
- 46:14Speaker 15: easy for some people.
- 46:15Speaker 18: Know, And I hate when we frame it as an
- 46:17Speaker 18: easy thing to do. Just all you need to do
- 46:19Speaker 18: is find the right therapist. It's just like dating finding
- 46:22Speaker 18: a therapist is different than finding a doctor because I
- 46:24Speaker 18: don't care about my doctor's bad side.
- 46:26Speaker 5: Man.
- 46:27Speaker 18: Sometimes, if you're an effective doctor that can spot something
- 46:30Speaker 18: that I need to see, or you give me all
- 46:32Speaker 18: my panels and all my results, you know, I will
- 46:34Speaker 18: take the how good you are and what I need
- 46:37Speaker 18: you to do above your bad side man and your attitude.
- 46:40Speaker 18: It don't work like that with therapists. If you throw
- 46:43Speaker 18: me off with your attitude, it ain't gonna work. If
- 46:45Speaker 18: you say the wrong thing at the wrong time, it
- 46:48Speaker 18: ain't gonna work. And from this angle, which I completely
- 46:50Speaker 18: understand and endorsed, I fired many a therapist before because
- 46:54Speaker 18: it just it wasn't a good fit of then feel right.
- 46:56Speaker 18: But as a therapist you have a very small marginal
- 46:58Speaker 18: eraror sometimes and if you don't sometimes, I can't treat
- 47:02Speaker 18: you until I know who you are. I take the
- 47:04Speaker 18: first couple of sessions just getting.
- 47:05Speaker 1: To know you. Who your mama, how she treats you.
- 47:08Speaker 1: What did love look like in your house? What are
- 47:10Speaker 1: your relations like?
- 47:11Speaker 18: Yeah, the romantic ones, okay, now in the now romantic ones?
- 47:14Speaker 18: Who are your friends? How do you contextualize and view friendship?
- 47:18Speaker 1: How do you see the world.
- 47:19Speaker 18: Have you been victimized? How do you see being a victim?
- 47:22Speaker 18: Is it something that happened to you or is it
- 47:24Speaker 18: something that you use? And where's a badge honor? Or
- 47:26Speaker 18: is it something in the middle. How can I do
- 47:28Speaker 18: anything for you if I don't know you? And that's
- 47:30Speaker 18: why we've really started a podcast learn the hard way,
- 47:33Speaker 18: because talking to a therapist is hard. I'll admit it.
- 47:37Speaker 18: I'll admit it. It's even as a therapist. Talking to
- 47:39Speaker 18: a therapist can be hard and intimidating, but listening to
- 47:41Speaker 18: a conversation on a podcast, it's not. And while I'm
- 47:44Speaker 18: not your therapist, I can stand in the gap.
- 47:47Speaker 1: I'm a therapist.
- 47:48Speaker 18: I can still give you things to think about, still
- 47:50Speaker 18: help widen your aperture on how you see yourself and
- 47:53Speaker 18: how you see your place in the world, and just
- 47:55Speaker 18: give you something that you on that's not just going
- 47:57Speaker 18: to make you a different person, but try to make
- 47:59Speaker 18: you a a person.
- 48:00Speaker 6: I want to ask you because I love what you
- 48:02Speaker 6: said about you know, finding the therapist is like dating, right. Yeah,
- 48:05Speaker 6: I'm not going to talk about the conversation I just
- 48:08Speaker 6: heard that, but.
- 48:09Speaker 1: If you want to talk about it real bad you.
- 48:11Speaker 6: Had three and four therapists in the past, Yes, them all,
- 48:16Speaker 6: and you see three and four at one time? And
- 48:19Speaker 6: should you label them like main eater husband?
- 48:23Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
- 48:25Speaker 15: It's egregious, agreedious, more therapeutic term.
- 48:31Speaker 1: Lord, wait, moving on, Okay, Okay.
- 48:35Speaker 15: When you were figuring out your therapist, right and you
- 48:38Speaker 15: had like multiple, were you going to multiple at a
- 48:40Speaker 15: time or one at a time because you had you
- 48:41Speaker 15: got to pay for all.
- 48:44Speaker 18: One so treated like dying to an extent depending on
- 48:46Speaker 18: how you date. I would say it was one at
- 48:48Speaker 18: a time, just because I wanted to give them all
- 48:51Speaker 18: a fair shot to see how they would work.
- 48:53Speaker 15: For But you were seeking your therapists intentionally. You weren't
- 48:56Speaker 15: just going through a bunch of therapists because somebody told
- 48:58Speaker 15: us the thing to do.
- 48:59Speaker 1: Okay, what conversation that we had?
- 49:00Speaker 3: Yeah, shut up, are talking about it?
- 49:05Speaker 18: No, I wasn't running through therapists. Uh the therapist out?
- 49:12Speaker 5: Okay?
- 49:13Speaker 8: Nah?
- 49:13Speaker 1: Nah, Nah, I wasn't.
- 49:15Speaker 18: I wasn't running through therapists were reckless, abandoned.
- 49:19Speaker 3: How did you know that?
- 49:20Speaker 15: Like, if a therapist is something that turned you off,
- 49:24Speaker 15: did you like be like y'all, I'm out?
- 49:26Speaker 18: So before I was a therapist, Yes, I would go
- 49:28Speaker 18: therapists all the time, because it's uncomfortable to tell someone
- 49:32Speaker 18: there's a power dynamic that exists in the room when
- 49:34Speaker 18: you're a therapist, and it's uncomfortable to tell somebody like, hey,
- 49:39Speaker 18: I don't like the way you're doing this.
- 49:40Speaker 1: Can we change it?
- 49:41Speaker 18: People don't even do that with their partners sometimes, you know.
- 49:44Speaker 18: So before I was a therapist, yeah, I probably just
- 49:47Speaker 18: ghost them. A lot of therapists I had, they get
- 49:49Speaker 18: weird when they know I'm a therapist. No, I'm a
- 49:52Speaker 18: personal social media A lot of therapists get weird with
- 49:55Speaker 18: black men. And I know that's not it's not super
- 49:59Speaker 18: in style in vogue to say, but it's true. You know,
- 50:02Speaker 18: they have a very from my experience, have a very
- 50:05Speaker 18: low perception of black men. So when I walk in
- 50:07Speaker 18: and you know, I'm married and I got a career
- 50:09Speaker 18: and I got my kids going and everything, and they like,
- 50:11Speaker 18: we're so proud of you black man, I'm like, hey,
- 50:13Speaker 18: stop clapping for me and listen to me. I still
- 50:16Speaker 18: need help. You're not listening. So there was that piece.
- 50:20Speaker 18: But now that I am a therapist, I will stop
- 50:22Speaker 18: them and say, hey, I don't feel like this is
- 50:24Speaker 18: as effective as I needed to be.
- 50:25Speaker 1: Can we talk about it?
- 50:27Speaker 18: Because even my clients, we have sessions where we talk
- 50:29Speaker 18: about our relationship. Check in what are we You don't
- 50:32Speaker 18: see what we're doing right now is dating. It's very
- 50:35Speaker 18: much like it's such a personal relationship because I know
- 50:38Speaker 18: all your business and I hold it right here. It
- 50:41Speaker 18: doesn't leave anywhere. I know your mama, I know your
- 50:43Speaker 18: relationship with your mama. I know why you do the
- 50:46Speaker 18: things you do. There are things you told me that
- 50:48Speaker 18: you have never even said out loud by yourself. So
- 50:51Speaker 18: we take those things and we don't judge you about them,
- 50:54Speaker 18: not at all. We don't judge you about them.
- 50:56Speaker 6: That's I don't think you should have multiple at one time.
- 50:58Speaker 6: You know, it's depends. It depends on what kind of
- 51:01Speaker 6: therapist it is, not, depending on where you're.
- 51:03Speaker 3: In your life too, what you're dealing with life.
- 51:06Speaker 5: Because you're sharing so much of yourself.
- 51:08Speaker 1: Well with some people, that's not an issue. I will
- 51:10Speaker 1: say this.
- 51:10Speaker 18: I have two types of therapists, So I have a
- 51:13Speaker 18: talk therapist and I have a semantic therapist. And my
- 51:16Speaker 18: semantic therapist is more so about movement in the body,
- 51:19Speaker 18: and where you hold your trauma in your body? She
- 51:21Speaker 18: told me something dope. She says, yeah, she said, because
- 51:24Speaker 18: I lost my mom when I was eighteen. Sorry and
- 51:26Speaker 18: thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. And sometimes
- 51:30Speaker 18: there's an absence that I feel that I can't put
- 51:32Speaker 18: my finger on. And she says, where do you feel
- 51:35Speaker 18: your pain in your body? And I said, I feel
- 51:37Speaker 18: it in my chest. And she says, whenever you feel it,
- 51:39Speaker 18: gently rub your chest because that's a part of your
- 51:42Speaker 18: body that's longing for gentle touch that it won't get
- 51:44Speaker 18: anywhere else.
- 51:45Speaker 1: It's like, damn you good.
- 51:47Speaker 3: I didn't even know that that was a type of therapy.
- 51:50Speaker 18: Not everything can be solved with talk therapy. You gotta
- 51:52Speaker 18: hit you gotta hit that problem from all angles.
- 51:54Speaker 15: Sometimes I'm gonna be honest, and I mean, no, I haven't.
- 52:00Speaker 15: I'm about to say something that's like very honest is
- 52:02Speaker 15: what I'm saying.
- 52:02Speaker 3: I've been lying the whole time.
- 52:03Speaker 1: Okay, let's go.
- 52:04Speaker 15: So like I have therapist friends like doctor Shanda write
- 52:06Speaker 15: page doctor Shanda, but because she's my friend, I don't
- 52:10Speaker 15: really like there's kind of like a boundary separation.
- 52:13Speaker 3: But we still talk through things.
- 52:14Speaker 1: Like boundary, Like she's not trying to overthrapize you.
- 52:16Speaker 15: Yes, like she can't because like she's known me for
- 52:18Speaker 15: almost like my whole life. But like sitting and really
- 52:21Speaker 15: having this conversation with you and knowing her and knowing
- 52:24Speaker 15: that she's an influencer in the space, you're influencer in
- 52:26Speaker 15: the space. It kind of makes me sad for y'all
- 52:28Speaker 15: a little bit because there's so many other people that
- 52:31Speaker 15: are in this space that with platforms that they're not
- 52:34Speaker 15: giving it up, like y'all giving it up, and people
- 52:36Speaker 15: really need this stuff. Like I'm sitting here and I'm like,
- 52:39Speaker 15: I didn't even know that that was a thing. And
- 52:41Speaker 15: you've probably talked about this online TikTok somewhere, but like
- 52:44Speaker 15: we get clouded with so much other stuff that we
- 52:46Speaker 15: click because of what the algorithm the bids or how
- 52:48Speaker 15: many views or whatever, and it's pushed to you. It
- 52:51Speaker 15: has to be tough in that space for y'all, Like
- 52:53Speaker 15: because I'm sitting here, like, dang, I feel bad that
- 52:55Speaker 15: y'all got so much noise because people need to hear
- 52:57Speaker 15: this stuff.
- 52:58Speaker 18: They do, and it's hard to get this out and
- 53:00Speaker 18: short form content. A lot of therapist has been getting
- 53:03Speaker 18: smoke lately online because they're attempting to unpack very complicated
- 53:07Speaker 18: topics and short form content. Form content is meant to
- 53:11Speaker 18: be pungy, and even I've been man. I post a
- 53:14Speaker 18: lot of my videos just me in the kitchen talking
- 53:17Speaker 18: about concepts that people thought about but maybe you have
- 53:19Speaker 18: not been able to put words to. And long form
- 53:23Speaker 18: content has really helped me, like the pod. I just
- 53:25Speaker 18: wrote my debut book, It All Starts when You Do,
- 53:28Speaker 18: And in the book, it's a collection of all these
- 53:31Speaker 18: things I do in therapy and all these ways I
- 53:33Speaker 18: move people toward healing, and I can't express that in
- 53:37Speaker 18: short form.
- 53:37Speaker 1: There's just not enough time.
- 53:39Speaker 18: There's not enough bandwidth online for people to sit for
- 53:41Speaker 18: me to unpack something that's going to take four minutes.
- 53:45Speaker 18: And if I take a four minute explanation and not
- 53:47Speaker 18: to steal it down into twenty five seconds, I'm going
- 53:50Speaker 18: to lose a lot of the context. It's not going
- 53:52Speaker 18: to be it's helpful, it's not going to be it's
- 53:55Speaker 18: useful of a tool for you to wield around. So yeah,
- 53:58Speaker 18: I mean, you're right, but everybody don't.
- 53:59Speaker 1: Do it the same.
- 54:00Speaker 15: But how do you protect and this is not a
- 54:02Speaker 15: shot at doctor Shan Brian. But I've been seeing a
- 54:04Speaker 15: lot of people black therapists talk about the danger in
- 54:06Speaker 15: the way that we're having a conversation because of some
- 54:08Speaker 15: of the pushback she's getting. How do you protect the
- 54:11Speaker 15: people you love, like us, your community from those dangers
- 54:15Speaker 15: that people are pointing at if that's not possible, like
- 54:17Speaker 15: when they.
- 54:20Speaker 6: I swear to God, I was going to ask that
- 54:22Speaker 6: thing question. I want to know exactly what the danger
- 54:24Speaker 6: is that people think, doctor Shyan Brant.
- 54:26Speaker 15: So here's what I see people pointing out. This is
- 54:28Speaker 15: not my own personal thoughts are feelings. So I see
- 54:30Speaker 15: people pointing out the fact that it's dangerous when she
- 54:32Speaker 15: talks about licensing and being able to practice without being
- 54:34Speaker 15: licensed because of the ethics thing, the whole conversation about
- 54:38Speaker 15: the amount of schooling that she has or does not have, the.
- 54:42Speaker 3: Even the dissertation conversation.
- 54:44Speaker 15: I'm thinking, Okay, people just want to see that because
- 54:46Speaker 15: it's proof of something. And then I saw a breakdown
- 54:48Speaker 15: of a woman who's like, no, because of the hours
- 54:50Speaker 15: of research and whatever whatever it goes into, here's what
- 54:53Speaker 15: she can lean on when her own personal experience comes
- 54:55Speaker 15: into play. But also just when it comes to her
- 54:58Speaker 15: being therapist or psychiatrist. There's a difference that people are
- 55:02Speaker 15: now confusing because they are legend that she was going
- 55:04Speaker 15: by one title and then change that.
- 55:06Speaker 3: Those are all the things that I'm seeing people.
- 55:07Speaker 5: Put in what long question Lorosa is trying to shut up?
- 55:10Speaker 6: Can somebody give genuinely helpful emotional advice without being licensed
- 55:14Speaker 6: or does lack of licensing automatically create danger.
- 55:16Speaker 18: I think anybody can talk about their own experiences. I
- 55:20Speaker 18: think anybody can talk about their own trauma. I think
- 55:23Speaker 18: that you can preach from the lens of what you
- 55:26Speaker 18: know and what you've experienced. Now, when you begin to
- 55:29Speaker 18: give advice to people, and people are beginning to take
- 55:32Speaker 18: that advice apply to their own lives and start to
- 55:34Speaker 18: move throughout their communities and families, there is a duty
- 55:38Speaker 18: to one know what you're talking about and to represent
- 55:41Speaker 18: yourself appropriately. When before I have my full license, I
- 55:45Speaker 18: had my provisional, And when you got your provisional, it
- 55:48Speaker 18: just means that you can't practice by yourself.
- 55:50Speaker 1: You got to have a big.
- 55:51Speaker 18: Therapist look over everything you do, sometimes sit in your sessions,
- 55:55Speaker 18: and you got to tell people to begin in a
- 55:57Speaker 18: session like Hey, i have a provisional license and I'm
- 56:00Speaker 18: under the supervision of doctor whoever.
- 56:02Speaker 1: Just to let you know.
- 56:03Speaker 3: In the hospital sometimes, yeah.
- 56:05Speaker 1: They have to let you know. You have to represent
- 56:06Speaker 1: yourself appropriately.
- 56:08Speaker 18: So I think the danger comes in where people are
- 56:12Speaker 18: one misrepresenting themselves not saying that's what she's doing. I
- 56:16Speaker 18: think the story is just starting. I think this is
- 56:18Speaker 18: about to be the more will be uncovered as time
- 56:23Speaker 18: goes on. But I think you have a duty to
- 56:25Speaker 18: one represent yourself appropriately and to speak to what you
- 56:28Speaker 18: know about. There's sometimes people come in my sessions and
- 56:31Speaker 18: they have specific conditions or experiences. It's not in my
- 56:35Speaker 18: therapeutic willhouse. I don't know about.
- 56:38Speaker 1: That, but I know a good therapist that does, and
- 56:40Speaker 1: I'll refer you out.
- 56:41Speaker 18: Oh well, it's not turning them away, it's referring them
- 56:44Speaker 18: to a therapist that can better help them. Yeah, if
- 56:47Speaker 18: you go to an oncologist who's a cancer doctor and
- 56:50Speaker 18: you ask them about the bone spurs in your feet,
- 56:52Speaker 18: you're gonna look at you like, hey, I don't know
- 56:55Speaker 18: a lot about that. That's not within my professional realm
- 56:58Speaker 18: of expertise. Send you to somebody who is more knowledgeable
- 57:03Speaker 18: about that.
- 57:03Speaker 1: Thing.
- 57:04Speaker 3: So is there in your world right a therapist and psychologist?
- 57:08Speaker 3: Are we not happy?
- 57:10Speaker 15: Then that to a certain extent that doctor Chayanne is
- 57:13Speaker 15: having these conversations because it's making everybody learn within it.
- 57:16Speaker 3: So why are people so upset?
- 57:17Speaker 1: I think there's a value in learning about a process.
- 57:21Speaker 18: I think that people who are licensed are upset because
- 57:24Speaker 18: being a therapist is already tough, and it's already it's
- 57:28Speaker 18: a field that's very much guided. I know, I keep
- 57:30Speaker 18: saying ethics, but it's guided by very strict ethics of
- 57:33Speaker 18: what you can and can't do, what you got the
- 57:35Speaker 18: duty to report, Like they can call you up to
- 57:37Speaker 18: court and take all of your notes and it can
- 57:39Speaker 18: be used as evidence against somebody or evidence for somebody.
- 57:42Speaker 18: So it's really important that you maintain the fidelity of
- 57:47Speaker 18: the field. And I think when the fidelity of the
- 57:50Speaker 18: field appears to be compromised, people speak out like black
- 57:54Speaker 18: folk are a really vulnerable population, especially right now. And
- 57:58Speaker 18: if you are again I saying, and this is what
- 58:00Speaker 18: she's doing. But if you are a person who appears
- 58:03Speaker 18: to be practicing and maybe not being completely clear about
- 58:08Speaker 18: how it is you came about your licenses or how
- 58:12Speaker 18: you came about. However, you you know, you signify yourself,
- 58:16Speaker 18: whether it be doctor, whether you be a psychologist, a psychiatrist, whatever.
- 58:21Speaker 18: There's a danger in giving people misinformation or you can
- 58:24Speaker 18: cause harm within a session.
- 58:25Speaker 1: It's so easy.
- 58:26Speaker 18: Imagine some imagine a woman who is postpartum, and instead
- 58:31Speaker 18: of knowing how to treat a woman who is postpartum
- 58:34Speaker 18: and knowing how she identifies racially, ethnically, religiously, and how
- 58:40Speaker 18: those things tie back into who she is and what
- 58:42Speaker 18: her family structure looks like, and you having an outermost
- 58:45Speaker 18: shale of good training to know how to handle that situation,
- 58:49Speaker 18: you could tell her something that could be harmful, especially
- 58:51Speaker 18: if you're coming from your own experience which is different
- 58:53Speaker 18: than hers. Now you're not just guidance somebody through a
- 58:57Speaker 18: therapeutic journey.
- 58:58Speaker 1: You're projecting.
- 59:00Speaker 6: At what point does I guess inspirational content become unethical
- 59:05Speaker 6: of audience is mistaken for therapy.
- 59:08Speaker 1: I think where you don't make it clear that it's
- 59:09Speaker 1: not therapy.
- 59:11Speaker 18: In my podcast, in the very beginning, I say, hey, y'all,
- 59:14Speaker 18: I'm a therapist.
- 59:15Speaker 1: But I'm not your therapist.
- 59:17Speaker 18: We cool, and I love being here for y'all, and
- 59:20Speaker 18: I'll standing in the gap seven days a week, but
- 59:22Speaker 18: I'm not your therapist, and if you are having trouble
- 59:25Speaker 18: with these things, you need to seek the help of
- 59:27Speaker 18: a license and qualify professional. You know, when you start
- 59:32Speaker 18: telling people what to do and they start taking your advice,
- 59:35Speaker 18: I think you take on some responsibility for what you say.
- 59:39Speaker 1: And we live.
- 59:39Speaker 18: In an attention economy. It's like, hey, look at me.
- 59:42Speaker 18: I'm going to say the most outrageous thing or the
- 59:45Speaker 18: thing that feels most resonant in order for people to
- 59:48Speaker 18: come in and vibrate with me. Hey, you come look
- 59:50Speaker 18: at me. Hey, you know, be a part of my audience.
- 59:52Speaker 18: I don't know what that culminates into, but I think
- 59:55Speaker 18: it validates a lot of people's humanity to be able
- 59:57Speaker 18: to have folks comment and respond and you know, give
- 1:00:00Speaker 18: them these joints. Damn Lauren one more time, middle finger?
- 1:00:03Speaker 18: All right, give them.
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: It feels good, but it's not necessarily helpful the folks.
- 1:00:07Speaker 6: You know what scares me therapists creating content because I
- 1:00:11Speaker 6: don't want to say becoming creative, because I don't think
- 1:00:12Speaker 6: that they're becoming created. I think they're creating content because
- 1:00:14Speaker 6: they're intentionally trying to help people. But I think some
- 1:00:17Speaker 6: therapists unintentionally become emotionally dependent.
- 1:00:22Speaker 5: On their audience.
- 1:00:23Speaker 18: I can see how that can happen. I mean therapists.
- 1:00:26Speaker 18: I tell people all the time, Bro, it's just the job.
- 1:00:29Speaker 18: It is just the job that I'm qualified to do.
- 1:00:31Speaker 18: It's no different than any job. And being a therapist
- 1:00:34Speaker 18: and having all this therapeutic knowledge, and we talk about
- 1:00:36Speaker 18: this on the pod. It does not exonerate me from
- 1:00:39Speaker 18: the human experience.
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: I gotta I got a wife or two kids. You
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: don't think I get mad at my kids.
- 1:00:45Speaker 18: You don't think I worry. You know, you don't think
- 1:00:46Speaker 18: I got money concerns. I mean, Charlomagne doesn't have money concerns.
- 1:00:51Speaker 18: But you know what, it's crazy, don't charlamage. We don't
- 1:00:55Speaker 18: have to do this and look at you. I'm just
- 1:00:58Speaker 18: I'm just maintain a law that was going to start.
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: Halfway through the year. Imagine with the rest of his year.
- 1:01:07Speaker 5: I'm sure good.
- 1:01:08Speaker 18: Yeah, I'm happy for you legitimately, but even even there, like,
- 1:01:12Speaker 18: no matter what your financial situation is, it doesn't mean
- 1:01:15Speaker 18: that you don't have the right to be upset or
- 1:01:18Speaker 18: dissatisfied with parts of your life.
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: You can still have a bad day being a billionaire
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: like you are.
- 1:01:23Speaker 18: You know, hey, hey, but yeah, it's I still feel
- 1:01:32Speaker 18: the full range of human emotions and still have to
- 1:01:34Speaker 18: navigate it.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: So yeah, therapists are.
- 1:01:37Speaker 18: Just people and and creators are no different than anyone else.
- 1:01:41Speaker 18: Or therapists will create. There's no different than anyone else.
- 1:01:43Speaker 18: I want to feel good, I want to feel validated.
- 1:01:45Speaker 18: I want to feel like people think I'm smart and capable.
- 1:01:49Speaker 18: I just think the way you go about that needs
- 1:01:51Speaker 18: to be very intentional so that you don't make a
- 1:01:53Speaker 18: fool of yourself.
- 1:01:54Speaker 5: Man, can hope to have you with the Mental Wealth
- 1:01:56Speaker 5: Expot this year.

- 1:04:54Speaker 7: Of course he deleted it, because it's like, why would
- 1:04:56Speaker 7: you say something like that. You don't react out of
- 1:04:58Speaker 7: your feelings and then especially if you're planning to hurt someone.
- 1:05:01Speaker 15: Well also what I mean in this whole situation, which
- 1:05:03Speaker 15: is a federal open case. Still off Set was shot
- 1:05:06Speaker 15: in the case as well too, so I you know,
- 1:05:08Speaker 15: maybe it triggered him to hear it be whatever.
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: Crazy shoot all right, that's the right word to use it.
- 1:05:15Speaker 3: It's crazy. Yeah, but I don't know.

- 1:07:31Speaker 6: the forty six year old Alicia lennee McIntosh and forty
- 1:07:34Speaker 6: six year old Robert James McIntosh.
- 1:07:37Speaker 5: Both of Taylorville, Utah, Okay.
- 1:07:39Speaker 6: They are parents who are facing charges of aggravated child
- 1:07:42Speaker 6: abuse after they allegedly locked their eleven year old child
- 1:07:45Speaker 6: out of their home in an effort to teach the
- 1:07:49Speaker 6: child how to be homeless. I keep telling y'all on
- 1:07:53Speaker 6: this radio every single day that times is hard. Okay,
- 1:07:57Speaker 6: economic hardship is impacting everybody. There was a U goov
- 1:08:01Speaker 6: survey that found forty two percent of Americans believe a
- 1:08:04Speaker 6: total economic collapses on the way. And I guess some
- 1:08:07Speaker 6: parents are preparing their kids for the future. Okay, Well
- 1:08:11Speaker 6: that's not what happened here. What happened here was the
- 1:08:13Speaker 6: child said they wanted to run away, and the parents said,
- 1:08:15Speaker 6: oh wor, let's go to KSL dot conferent report please.
- 1:08:19Speaker 19: A man arrested last week for allegedly making his eleven
- 1:08:22Speaker 19: year old daughter sleep in the garage to experience being
- 1:08:24Speaker 19: homeless has now been charged with zip tying the young girl.
- 1:08:27Speaker 19: Robert James McIntosh, forty six, of Taylorsville, was charged Monday
- 1:08:32Speaker 19: in third District Court with two counts of aggravated child abuse.
- 1:08:36Speaker 19: A third degree felony. Both he and his wife, Alicia
- 1:08:39Speaker 19: Lyne A Macintosh, forty six, were arrested Friday by Taylorsville
- 1:08:42Speaker 19: police for investigation of aggravated child abuse. However, the Salt
- 1:08:46Speaker 19: Lake County District Attorney's Office is now determined there isn't
- 1:08:50Speaker 19: enough evidence to charge Alicia Macintosh for the child abuse
- 1:08:53Speaker 19: she was suspected of committing, and neither parent will face
- 1:08:56Speaker 19: charges for allegedly making their daughter sleep in the garage.
- 1:08:59Speaker 19: Charging documents filed Monday against Robert McIntosh state that the
- 1:09:02Speaker 19: young girl was scratching her face and causing it to bleed,
- 1:09:05Speaker 19: so Macintosh found zip ties and zip tied her to
- 1:09:08Speaker 19: a bed.
- 1:09:09Speaker 5: She said.
- 1:09:10Speaker 19: Macintosh then removed the ladder from her bunk bed so
- 1:09:12Speaker 19: she couldn't climb onto the bed, and she hung there,
- 1:09:15Speaker 19: unable to touch the ground, for ten to fifteen minutes damn.
- 1:09:18Speaker 19: When questioned, Macintosh told police that he zip tied his
- 1:09:21Speaker 19: daughter one time for less than ten minutes, to stop
- 1:09:24Speaker 19: her from scratching herself. Alicia McIntosh stated she knew Macintosh
- 1:09:28Speaker 19: zip tied their daughter to her bed, but said it
- 1:09:30Speaker 19: was a moment of desperation when he had been home
- 1:09:33Speaker 19: alone with her.
- 1:09:34Speaker 6: The charges state, oh, this is a lot man, you know,
- 1:09:38Speaker 6: the honorable Minutes, the Louis pra Cohn, who celebrated his
- 1:09:40Speaker 6: ninety third born data week dropping a clue bomb for
- 1:09:42Speaker 6: minutes to pray con donoral minies. Louis Fray Cohn always says,
- 1:09:46Speaker 6: when you see men fall, don't laugh. Learn And this
- 1:09:49Speaker 6: is a prime example, because sometimes you have to see
- 1:09:52Speaker 6: what happened to others when they do things you've thought about. Okay,
- 1:09:56Speaker 6: I have absolutely threatened to put my child outside, all right,
- 1:09:59Speaker 6: I would never do it, Okay, especially now after reading
- 1:10:01Speaker 6: this story, but I've thought about it. And sometimes we
- 1:10:03Speaker 6: need to see examples of how stupid things actually are
- 1:10:06Speaker 6: when you do them, because look, man, kids are difficult
- 1:10:09Speaker 6: and there is no manual to raising them. I have
- 1:10:11Speaker 6: so much respect for my parents now that I am one.
- 1:10:13Speaker 6: I get it. I get it, I get it. Kids
- 1:10:15Speaker 6: will test your patience in ways that you can't even imagine. Okay,
- 1:10:18Speaker 6: I don't even understand, you know, psychologically, how you can
- 1:10:21Speaker 6: love something so much, but on the flip side, want
- 1:10:23Speaker 6: to hurt them so bad when they trying you. But
- 1:10:26Speaker 6: Alicia and Robert, this isn't the lesson you thought it
- 1:10:29Speaker 6: was okay. For first of all, this is you're abusing
- 1:10:33Speaker 6: your child in multiple ways. But I want to just
- 1:10:37Speaker 6: talk about the homeless aspect of it. When you said
- 1:10:40Speaker 6: you were teaching your child how to be homeless, you
- 1:10:43Speaker 6: are not teaching your child how to be homeless. You
- 1:10:44Speaker 6: are teaching your child how to be traumatized. You are
- 1:10:47Speaker 6: teaching your child how to not trust their parents. You
- 1:10:50Speaker 6: are teaching your child how to feel unsafe and unsupported
- 1:10:53Speaker 6: because it all starts at home, all right, I don't
- 1:10:56Speaker 6: it wasn't in the news report. But when they put
- 1:10:59Speaker 6: them in the garage, this kid went to a neighbor's
- 1:11:00Speaker 6: house to use the bathroom because his parents wouldn't let
- 1:11:03Speaker 6: him use bathroom. So he left the garage and went
- 1:11:04Speaker 6: to a neighbor's house and told the neighbor he would
- 1:11:07Speaker 6: have rather I don't even know if it was a heat,
- 1:11:10Speaker 6: but they told the neighbor they would rather live with
- 1:11:13Speaker 6: them because their parents locked them out of the house.
- 1:11:17Speaker 5: And when the daddy picked.
- 1:11:18Speaker 6: Up the child from his neighbor's house, they punished the
- 1:11:21Speaker 6: child again, okay, made him sleep in the garage because
- 1:11:25Speaker 6: how dare you go to the neighbor's house, telling them
- 1:11:27Speaker 6: folks off business. See, the first law of nature is
- 1:11:29Speaker 6: self preservation. So that young child did what they had
- 1:11:32Speaker 6: to do to survive by going to the neighbor's house.
- 1:11:34Speaker 6: But if that child was raised off Good Times like
- 1:11:37Speaker 6: we was in the nineteen Nunedreds, then they would have
- 1:11:39Speaker 6: learned from watching Linella Gordon punished Penny, you don't bring
- 1:11:44Speaker 6: nobody else into yall business. Okay, but you should, right,
- 1:11:48Speaker 6: And the punishment Penny got if she dared to bring
- 1:11:50Speaker 6: somebody else in their family business, Oh my god. Okay,
- 1:11:53Speaker 6: if that child was watching Good Times, they would have
- 1:11:55Speaker 6: known involving the neighbors was going to escalate the situation.
- 1:11:59Speaker 5: Okay, And with.
- 1:12:00Speaker 6: Alicia and Roberts track record, you know you probably want
- 1:12:03Speaker 6: to keep that child away from them.
- 1:12:07Speaker 5: Dare I say forever? Okay?
- 1:12:10Speaker 6: These parents need counseling and extensive therapy, at least the dad,
- 1:12:14Speaker 6: because I know the dad right now is plotting and
- 1:12:16Speaker 6: planning some severe punishment for this young child because not
- 1:12:20Speaker 6: only did you go to the neighbor's house to complain
- 1:12:22Speaker 6: about them, the police came and you got him arrested.
- 1:12:25Speaker 6: Oh man, he's planning to go get a hot iron
- 1:12:27Speaker 6: right now. This story is just the prime example of
- 1:12:31Speaker 6: everybody is not ready to be a parent.
- 1:12:33Speaker 5: Okay.
- 1:12:33Speaker 6: Kids do not deserve to be in abusive relationships with
- 1:12:36Speaker 6: their parents. Okay, they didn't ask to be here, all right.
- 1:12:38Speaker 6: Parenting is supposed to prepare kids for the world, Okay,
- 1:12:41Speaker 6: not traumatize them for it.
- 1:12:43Speaker 5: A right.
- 1:12:43Speaker 6: There's a difference between discipline and cruelty and abuse, all right.
- 1:12:48Speaker 6: If your lesson planned for your child includes, you know,
- 1:12:52Speaker 6: them freezing in a garage, you know, with a bucket
- 1:12:55Speaker 6: for a bathroom or hog tyer wrist together and letting
- 1:12:58Speaker 6: them hang places, you're not teaching responsibility, You're teaching fear. Okay,
- 1:13:02Speaker 6: And too many parents do confuse control with care. Please
- 1:13:07Speaker 6: let me Ma give Alicia and Robert McIntosh the biggest
- 1:13:10Speaker 6: he haw, he.
- 1:13:11Speaker 3: Haw, he haw, You stupid mother?
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: Are you dumb?
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: Yo?
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: You know what?
- 1:13:18Speaker 7: My initial thought was, right because if they zip tied her,
- 1:13:21Speaker 7: if he zip tied her, right, like what from keeping
- 1:13:25Speaker 7: up for scratching her face? It honestly sounds like she
- 1:13:29Speaker 7: was like possessed. That sounding like some Emily Rose.
- 1:13:32Speaker 6: She was not possessed, probably scratching her face because she
- 1:13:34Speaker 6: was scratched out and dealing with high levels of anxiety
- 1:13:38Speaker 6: and was terrified and traumatized in this abausi relationship. So
- 1:13:41Speaker 6: she was scratching her face because she was harming herself.
- 1:13:44Speaker 6: That's what that's like, a self mutilation. Why nothing?
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: How old was the logan?
- 1:13:51Speaker 5: Eleven?
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 1:13:56Speaker 3: Well, good thing. He's arrested now, he's in jail now.
- 1:14:01Speaker 3: But what that means for the little girl? Where did
- 1:14:03Speaker 3: she go?
- 1:14:03Speaker 7: Because she can't go back into the caf o mother
- 1:14:05Speaker 7: because they both got to be investigated.
- 1:14:07Speaker 5: I really don't know.
- 1:14:09Speaker 6: I have no idea, but I feel so horrible for
- 1:14:12Speaker 6: that young lady because there's a lot of kids out
- 1:14:14Speaker 6: there going through that same situation.
- 1:14:18Speaker 5: All right, now it's time for just fix my mess.
- 1:14:19Speaker 5: I don't know what the type of everbodce y'all expect
- 1:14:21Speaker 5: to get from her shut up after hearing you got
- 1:14:23Speaker 5: to say just that.
- 1:14:23Speaker 3: But hey, you know she got That's what I thought
- 1:14:31Speaker 3: at first.
- 1:14:31Speaker 5: She woned watoud getting in trouble.
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: That's what I forget. That's what I thought at first.
- 1:14:35Speaker 6: And that's why you should never ever go with your
- 1:14:37Speaker 6: first thought. Matter of fact, I think three four times before.
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: You shut up anyway.
- 1:14:42Speaker 5: We'll be back with just fix my mess.
- 1:14:46Speaker 4: It's the real peel.
- 1:14:50Speaker 3: I'm all up in your mess. I'm gonna fix it,
- 1:14:51Speaker 3: fix it, fixed it, fixed it. Just gonna fix your
- 1:14:55Speaker 3: mess because my advice is real. I know who's this
- 1:14:59Speaker 3: all right? What's up? What's going on? Calm down?
- 1:15:07Speaker 5: What's up close?
- 1:15:08Speaker 6: Family got three kids.
- 1:15:10Speaker 4: Mom is not in their life.
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: When the kids was born, Mom said, okay, first.
- 1:15:15Speaker 4: One, probably your second one, I don't know.
- 1:15:18Speaker 20: Third one that ain't you?
- 1:15:20Speaker 7: He said, whatever out on these kids in their mind, Okay,
- 1:15:25Speaker 7: Mom left our He don't know.
- 1:15:28Speaker 4: What these kids he is. He's scared to take.
- 1:15:30Speaker 14: The DNA test.
- 1:15:31Speaker 4: I feel like you say, DNA the kids a third
- 1:15:33Speaker 4: to know who.
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: Their father is, to look for they do, they do.
- 1:15:37Speaker 7: But he wanted the kids right, and he knew that
- 1:15:39Speaker 7: there was a high chance of them not being his
- 1:15:42Speaker 7: knew it.
- 1:15:44Speaker 3: Yeah, but now.
- 1:15:45Speaker 7: He's rethinking that because that's three kids that he's got
- 1:15:48Speaker 7: that he's responsible for.
- 1:15:50Speaker 13: Its struggling.
- 1:15:51Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: Yeah, kids are not easy, especially three of them.
- 1:15:55Speaker 4: So yeah, and that's cool when you got little kids
- 1:15:57Speaker 4: and you can do that.
- 1:15:58Speaker 8: The kids like teen, fourteen.
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: And twelve, damn.
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: Live with him struggling Jesus.
- 1:16:09Speaker 3: Okay, so the question.
- 1:16:11Speaker 4: What do you think he should take the DNA test?
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: Do you think these kids deserve to know?
- 1:16:15Speaker 3: If that, Yeah, I do.
- 1:16:18Speaker 7: I think that he should get them a DNA test,
- 1:16:21Speaker 7: But I also think he should be reminded of the
- 1:16:25Speaker 7: responsibility that he took on knowing that they may not
- 1:16:29Speaker 7: be his kids. He gotta you gotta understand that. You know,
- 1:16:32Speaker 7: being a parent is not a single parent of three
- 1:16:36Speaker 7: is not easy. And my head's off to him. I
- 1:16:39Speaker 7: give I applaud him for doing that knowing that they
- 1:16:41Speaker 7: more than likely weren't his kids. But at some point
- 1:16:45Speaker 7: he just needs he needs assistance. I mean, I think
- 1:16:47Speaker 7: this is a perfect time for him to go downtown.
- 1:16:49Speaker 7: It should take their mother downtown. Take what their mother
- 1:16:51Speaker 7: on child support get, get some type of help.
- 1:16:55Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: Just like moms do it, dad can do it too.
- 1:16:58Speaker 7: And although he's not their biological father, he still has
- 1:17:01Speaker 7: them in his care.
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: He's been taking care of them all their.
- 1:17:02Speaker 19: Lifect and nothing has to say.
- 1:17:05Speaker 4: I feel like nothing has a change.
- 1:17:06Speaker 3: You've had him this loan, but.
- 1:17:08Speaker 7: Just to know, Yeah, they should know, But I feel
- 1:17:12Speaker 7: like they should get older and make that we shouldn't
- 1:17:15Speaker 7: wait for.
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: Them to get older to make that decision their self.
- 1:17:18Speaker 7: We should not be telling them just because it's harder,
- 1:17:22Speaker 7: it's getting harder and harder to take care of them,
- 1:17:24Speaker 7: that you might want to go find you're real farther now, kids,
- 1:17:27Speaker 7: this is, this is, It's all I got for you,
- 1:17:29Speaker 7: and I'm exhausted and y'all not really well.
- 1:17:33Speaker 13: They bring up the conversation and they want.
- 1:17:36Speaker 7: Okay, they want to know who their father is. Okay,
- 1:17:40Speaker 7: all right, we'll cool that. See you buried the lead.
- 1:17:43Speaker 7: I ain't know that, all right, So it's time to
- 1:17:45Speaker 7: go set out to go find who these kids' fathers are.
- 1:17:48Speaker 7: You know, I do believe that especially if they want
- 1:17:50Speaker 7: to know, they are certainly entitled to know.
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: They need to know.
- 1:17:54Speaker 14: And I feel like nothing has a change because you've
- 1:17:56Speaker 14: had them this loan.
- 1:17:57Speaker 13: But I just feel like that's something that.
- 1:17:59Speaker 3: Is Yeah, now who are you? Who are you to them?
- 1:18:03Speaker 7: The oh you just called him for somebody?
- 1:18:09Speaker 12: Yeah I help, Oh my gosh, I'm there.
- 1:18:14Speaker 7: But okay, now just check back in with me. Yeah,
- 1:18:16Speaker 7: definitely go help them kids find on their fathers are.
- 1:18:19Speaker 7: And I appreciate you for helping some you know, helping
- 1:18:23Speaker 7: the guy thus.
- 1:18:23Speaker 3: Far to take care of the kids. That's very noble
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: of both of you.
- 1:18:27Speaker 4: All right, Oh, Berkeley cub, it's Mitchell.
- 1:18:31Speaker 3: What's up? Mitchell?
- 1:18:32Speaker 5: I got doing?
- 1:18:33Speaker 4: Hey je Hey, Ja, couldn't talk to you again?
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: What's going on?
- 1:18:37Speaker 5: All right? So thank you.
- 1:18:38Speaker 4: So I have a close friend, me and my brother
- 1:18:41Speaker 4: and my one of my best friends from like childhood.
- 1:18:44Speaker 4: We had a big falling out because we moved away
- 1:18:48Speaker 4: when we were.
- 1:18:49Speaker 13: In high school.
- 1:18:50Speaker 5: We grew up in Baltimore.
- 1:18:51Speaker 4: And we moved away. We moved to Indiana, and I
- 1:18:55Speaker 4: under we didn't lose tould everybody, but we had one
- 1:18:58Speaker 4: friend who really stayed close with us. And then when
- 1:19:01Speaker 4: we became adults, we started going back to like it
- 1:19:04Speaker 4: sounds corny, but like wrestle, like dress up and rent
- 1:19:07Speaker 4: a ring. Just some grown men in the thirties pretending
- 1:19:10Speaker 4: likely teenagers.
- 1:19:11Speaker 5: Again.
- 1:19:12Speaker 4: Okay, my good friend Ray, he started really getting nasty
- 1:19:18Speaker 4: with my brother, and my brother moved to California and
- 1:19:21Speaker 4: he stopped coming back to wrestle.
- 1:19:23Speaker 13: So then Ray started making this.
- 1:19:24Speaker 4: Like halfway real life, halfway k fabe or pretend or
- 1:19:29Speaker 4: he would talk or talk stuff about him, but the
- 1:19:31Speaker 4: stuff just started getting nastier and nastier, to the point
- 1:19:34Speaker 4: where I got in a real life beef behind this
- 1:19:37Speaker 4: fake wrestling moniker or whatever. So we had a really.
- 1:19:42Speaker 5: Bad falling out he had.
- 1:19:44Speaker 4: He said some really terrible things about my brother to
- 1:19:47Speaker 4: the group, the wrestling group, and it's been beef ever
- 1:19:50Speaker 4: since I was probably twenty twenty. Now my brother and
- 1:19:54Speaker 4: him have kind of patched things up, but I don't
- 1:19:57Speaker 4: still feel.
- 1:19:58Speaker 13: Like, I don't know, oh, like he's just such a
- 1:20:00Speaker 13: negative person.
- 1:20:02Speaker 5: I've cut him off.
- 1:20:02Speaker 4: With my kids, who are now teenagers, They're like, oh,
- 1:20:05Speaker 4: where's Uncle Ray?
- 1:20:06Speaker 5: We miss them?
- 1:20:06Speaker 4: And how are you gonna throw away your friendship? Do
- 1:20:09Speaker 4: you tell us to talk things out? How come y'all
- 1:20:11Speaker 4: ain't talking things out?
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: But I don't know. So what do you think, Gus?
- 1:20:14Speaker 5: So?
- 1:20:14Speaker 7: I mean you should always you should give him a chance.
- 1:20:16Speaker 7: I mean, y'all wrestling together, and you know, doing y'all
- 1:20:19Speaker 7: thing and dressing up and y'all doing it. You know,
- 1:20:21Speaker 7: y'all living y'all childhoods out in adulthood, and I think
- 1:20:24Speaker 7: that's I think that's cool. We'll see that enough. I
- 1:20:26Speaker 7: think you should give your friend another chance. Maybe it's
- 1:20:28Speaker 7: something that happened in his life that caused him to
- 1:20:30Speaker 7: react that way.
- 1:20:31Speaker 3: You know what I mean. You don't know what Ray
- 1:20:34Speaker 3: is going through.
- 1:20:35Speaker 7: He probably was going through a time, a challenging time,
- 1:20:37Speaker 7: and was just taking it out on your brother.
- 1:20:39Speaker 3: And if your brother could forgive.
- 1:20:41Speaker 7: Him, because he was doing that, was doing him dirty
- 1:20:43Speaker 7: and talking nasty about him and being nasty with him.
- 1:20:46Speaker 7: You know, I think you should find it in your
- 1:20:48Speaker 7: heart to you know, give him a chance to explain itself.
- 1:20:53Speaker 3: Give give him a chance to explain itself.
- 1:20:55Speaker 1: You're right, you're right.
- 1:20:56Speaker 4: I don't think you're gonna necessarily have a change your heart,
- 1:21:00Speaker 4: but you're right, if being can forgive him, you know,
- 1:21:03Speaker 4: think you don't think no, I think he feels justified
- 1:21:07Speaker 4: what he said. Like one of the things he would
- 1:21:08Speaker 4: stay with, give me a little bit for instance, Okay,
- 1:21:12Speaker 4: something mild that he'd be like, oh, being wanna run
- 1:21:15Speaker 4: to Indiana and play on the golf course with the
- 1:21:18Speaker 4: white boys, playing grab ass, But you can't come back
- 1:21:21Speaker 4: home to Baltimore and get your ass kick.
- 1:21:23Speaker 3: Can't.

- 1:21:30Speaker 4: got a really good job at Apple in San Francisco,

- 1:23:48Speaker 6: And she'd be having the Latest on the Pigs La
- 1:23:52Speaker 6: the Latest with Lauren La Rosa.
- 1:23:53Speaker 5: Sometimes you have sometimes you have details, sometimes you have
- 1:23:56Speaker 5: a little bit of everything.
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: Till you by top talk law on the Breakfast Club.
- 1:24:01Speaker 5: To talk to me, all.
- 1:24:03Speaker 15: Right, y'all before we get into this Lady Latest, not
- 1:24:05Speaker 15: the lady and to this latest, because we're gonna be
- 1:24:07Speaker 15: talking about ladies. I am happy with Mammy in, but okay,
- 1:24:13Speaker 15: I want to correct something. So last latest, we congratulated
- 1:24:15Speaker 15: Chanel Jones for being on the New York Times Bestsellers
- 1:24:19Speaker 15: list for four weeks in a row, and I mentioned
- 1:24:20Speaker 15: that she was number one on that list for four weeks. Well,
- 1:24:23Speaker 15: when we originally talked about it some weeks ago, she
- 1:24:25Speaker 15: was number one. She's actually celebrating she debuted at number one.
- 1:24:29Speaker 15: She was actually just celebrating being on the list for
- 1:24:31Speaker 15: four weeks. In general, she is now number four on
- 1:24:36Speaker 15: this list, and number two on the list is Let
- 1:24:39Speaker 15: Them Theory by Meil Robbins and number one is Birth
- 1:24:42Speaker 15: Vised by Jen Hamilton. So yeah, I just wanted to
- 1:24:45Speaker 15: make sure I updated that. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. She's
- 1:24:49Speaker 15: number six on the list chane Oul Jones. So we
- 1:24:51Speaker 15: just want to make sure I congratulations to her. Now,
- 1:24:57Speaker 15: let's get into this conversation that is starting. Who happened
- 1:25:00Speaker 15: around Nicki Minaj? So Nicki Minaj sat down with Time
- 1:25:03Speaker 15: Magazine in this ninety minute interview. It happened right after
- 1:25:07Speaker 15: Nicki Minaj spoke at the World Liberty from back in February,
- 1:25:11Speaker 15: and she makes it very clear in this interview that
- 1:25:14Speaker 15: she has been a Trump supporter for a while, but
- 1:25:16Speaker 15: feels like she had to suppress it. She says, I
- 1:25:18Speaker 15: felt that she's already felt this way about him, but
- 1:25:21Speaker 15: she just didn't act about it in public. She says,
- 1:25:23Speaker 15: it's been ingrained in everyone's brain in the music business
- 1:25:25Speaker 15: that we're supposed to be a democratic family. I just
- 1:25:28Speaker 15: knew they would not like me supporting Trump. Then, for
- 1:25:31Speaker 15: the first time, she gives us specific reasons why she
- 1:25:34Speaker 15: turned into the face of MAGA. So she mentioned number one,
- 1:25:39Speaker 15: her issues with Obama. She says that she was disappointed
- 1:25:43Speaker 15: by President Barack Obama. She was frustrated by the expectation
- 1:25:47Speaker 15: that they had that black entertainers would just, you know,
- 1:25:50Speaker 15: as a reflex vote Democrat. She says that she does
- 1:25:53Speaker 15: not like the fact that jay Z is a close
- 1:25:55Speaker 15: friend of Obama, and she says a distance from her
- 1:25:58Speaker 15: feeling that jay Z and Rockney allegedly ruined her career.
- 1:26:02Speaker 15: The quote is, I think jay Z ended up costing
- 1:26:04Speaker 15: Obama a lot, whether he knows it or not. Lots
- 1:26:08Speaker 15: of rappers don't like jay Z and and are just
- 1:26:10Speaker 15: afraid to say it.
- 1:26:12Speaker 5: What did jay Z cost Obama? Obama's a two.
- 1:26:14Speaker 8: Term president, and in twenty sixteen, Nikki publicly supported Hillary Clinton.
- 1:26:19Speaker 15: Well, now she's changing her tune. She says that jay
- 1:26:24Speaker 15: Z accumulated such a concentrated power in the industry that
- 1:26:28Speaker 15: many artists have now come to resent him, and that
- 1:26:31Speaker 15: was back shadow to Obama some way, somehow.
- 1:26:33Speaker 5: So they resent him because he has power.
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: That's what she's saying. She also says that Obama.
- 1:26:38Speaker 15: She didn't like the fact that Obama was condescending to
- 1:26:40Speaker 15: Kamala Harris during the twenty twenty four election cycle, and
- 1:26:42Speaker 15: what she's talking about and referencing is the speech at
- 1:26:45Speaker 15: Obama gave where he was talking to black men. She says,
- 1:26:48Speaker 15: I just saw so many videos of black men saying
- 1:26:51Speaker 15: that they didn't like the way that they felt about
- 1:26:53Speaker 15: the speech that Obama gave. They felt like they weren't
- 1:26:56Speaker 15: being listened to.
- 1:26:56Speaker 5: How was that condescending towards Kamala Harris.
- 1:27:00Speaker 15: I think she's talking about the conversation that happened after
- 1:27:02Speaker 15: that speech that Specialty gave where people felt like he
- 1:27:04Speaker 15: was calling out black men because they weren't supporting Kamala,
- 1:27:08Speaker 15: And Kamala was on this campaign trail saying no black
- 1:27:11Speaker 15: men do support me. I'm hearing differently, And there was
- 1:27:14Speaker 15: a lot of conversation around that whether or not Obama
- 1:27:16Speaker 15: should have said the things the way he said them
- 1:27:18Speaker 15: or not, and she pointed that out. But this is
- 1:27:20Speaker 15: the biggest thing. She says that what made her publicly
- 1:27:23Speaker 15: start talking about Trump and supporting him was the swatting
- 1:27:26Speaker 15: that happened on her home and how Gavin Newsom did
- 1:27:29Speaker 15: not respond to help her. So, she says, in twenty
- 1:27:31Speaker 15: twenty two, twenty three, and twenty twenty five, her mansion,
- 1:27:35Speaker 15: which is gated in California, received regular swatting calls, which
- 1:27:39Speaker 15: is where someone will call the police and say, you
- 1:27:41Speaker 15: know someone's in the house with this or that, So
- 1:27:43Speaker 15: then a ton of police come and they storm your house. Now,
- 1:27:46Speaker 15: she says, of course this frightened her. It frightened her
- 1:27:48Speaker 15: younger son. She says, you know, as of right now,
- 1:27:51Speaker 15: law enforcement steel has not identified or arrested anyone in
- 1:27:54Speaker 15: connection with the incidents.
- 1:27:56Speaker 3: And if you go to a local council, I mean
- 1:27:58Speaker 3: like her mayor, so you know.
- 1:27:59Speaker 15: She's said that she reached out to Gavin Newsom at
- 1:28:02Speaker 15: the time, and he completely ignored her, she says, with
- 1:28:04Speaker 15: all the money I spent in taxes. Now, Newsom's office
- 1:28:07Speaker 15: did not respond to Time's request the comment, but she
- 1:28:10Speaker 15: says when the twenty twenty five attempt happened and she
- 1:28:14Speaker 15: spoke about it on X that Republicans basically got behind her.
- 1:28:16Speaker 3: She says.
- 1:28:17Speaker 15: Anna Paulina Luna, who we've seen her align herself with since,
- 1:28:21Speaker 15: who also works with Turning Point USA, says that she
- 1:28:24Speaker 15: reached out to Nicki Minaj. She connected Nicki Minaj with
- 1:28:26Speaker 15: federal law enforcement officials and a security private firm, a
- 1:28:30Speaker 15: private security firm which then began to protect Nikki in
- 1:28:33Speaker 15: her home, and Nicki Minaja says, I was shocked. I'd
- 1:28:35Speaker 15: never seen anyone in politics treat me that way. So
- 1:28:38Speaker 15: she began to consider going public as a part of
- 1:28:40Speaker 15: Trunk's MAGA movement at that time, and she says that's
- 1:28:43Speaker 15: what made me say, I don't care to keep this
- 1:28:45Speaker 15: a secret anymore. And then she did the United.
- 1:28:47Speaker 8: Mistions, this doesn't make sense, so she blamed all that
- 1:28:49Speaker 8: on Gavin Newsom. I mean, there's steps that you have
- 1:28:51Speaker 8: to go through before you just go to the governor,
- 1:28:53Speaker 8: like just said, so the mayor you can go, you know,
- 1:28:56Speaker 8: federal authorities hire personal security. To start off at the
- 1:29:00Speaker 8: governor and then blame him kind of doesn't make sense.
- 1:29:04Speaker 15: Yeah, well, she's given us these, uh, these these bullet
- 1:29:07Speaker 15: points here to live with.
- 1:29:08Speaker 5: That man, I don't care what NICKI minaj thanks.
- 1:29:10Speaker 6: At a time like this, Trump's tariffs got to cost
- 1:29:14Speaker 6: the household goods through the roof. You know, the war
- 1:29:17Speaker 6: he got us in, got gas prices through the roof.
- 1:29:19Speaker 6: Inflation is high. Uh, social services has been cut. You know,
- 1:29:22Speaker 6: people's healthcare has been cut. I don't, I don't, I
- 1:29:25Speaker 6: don't care, but.
- 1:29:25Speaker 8: I just want to say, that's like calling the CEO
- 1:29:28Speaker 8: that your WiFi is down, you know, of your your
- 1:29:30Speaker 8: telecommunications company.
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: Just damn doesn't make sense. You remember, I was trying
- 1:29:35Speaker 3: to blame that on the merger.
- 1:29:36Speaker 7: Oh when I thought that my son and Wi Fi,
- 1:29:39Speaker 7: I thought the Wi Fi was going out because of
- 1:29:41Speaker 7: the merger.
- 1:29:41Speaker 3: The whole time, we just had to unplug and replug
- 1:29:43Speaker 3: the box.
- 1:29:44Speaker 9: I remember that.
- 1:29:46Speaker 5: You know we edited that. He edited that, so.
- 1:29:48Speaker 9: She just told us.
- 1:29:50Speaker 6: She told her, Wow, yeah, yeah, Well you just want
- 1:29:54Speaker 6: people to know what.
- 1:29:55Speaker 3: Else we got, Lauren.
- 1:29:56Speaker 5: I mean, how ridiculous.
- 1:30:00Speaker 15: You know he was gonna close with uh, you know
- 1:30:03Speaker 15: your experience yesterday because I did that.
- 1:30:05Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:30:05Speaker 6: By the way, you can support whoever you want, yeah, politically,
- 1:30:09Speaker 6: but you also need to know how that person's policies
- 1:30:12Speaker 6: are impacting the people who probably support your actual your
- 1:30:15Speaker 6: actual fan base.
- 1:30:17Speaker 15: She says that she didn't want to alienate her fan
- 1:30:18Speaker 15: base in the beginning of it, but then you know, personally,
- 1:30:21Speaker 15: these things happened and it changed her mind about what
- 1:30:23Speaker 15: she dis understand.
- 1:30:24Speaker 6: But you know, personally, things happened for you that might
- 1:30:26Speaker 6: have benefited you. But I'm just telling you overall, I
- 1:30:29Speaker 6: guarantee you the people that buy your albums economically are
- 1:30:32Speaker 6: doing way worse right now.
- 1:30:34Speaker 3: You can't pick up the.
- 1:30:34Speaker 15: Car Gaven Newsom if they tried, but yes, yeah, but
- 1:30:39Speaker 15: shout out to everybody in Atlanta.
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: Yo, people were leaving my event.
- 1:30:44Speaker 7: It was from six to eight because at nine o'clock
- 1:30:46Speaker 7: they had to be at the Mercedes Benz Stadium.
- 1:30:48Speaker 3: TI shut it down.
- 1:30:49Speaker 7: Last night he celebrated twenty years of the movie Ato
- 1:30:52Speaker 7: and also twenty years as King of the South. He
- 1:30:55Speaker 7: received the proclamation, yo, and what I think I thought
- 1:30:58Speaker 7: they what they did to the reign, it was so cool.
- 1:31:01Speaker 7: They made it a whole like Cascade Skatelane. So I
- 1:31:05Speaker 7: thought that was very very fire that he did that.
- 1:31:08Speaker 5: You talk about Tis album King, yeah, t.
- 1:31:11Speaker 7: I I mean Tis Album King. But they honored him
- 1:31:15Speaker 7: for twenty years as being the King of the South.
- 1:31:17Speaker 6: No, the King album is twenty years old, so it
- 1:31:19Speaker 6: was twenty years of atl and twenty.
- 1:31:20Speaker 1: Years of the King.
- 1:31:22Speaker 5: But yeah, because I don't think he was of a
- 1:31:23Speaker 5: crown King of the South officially.
- 1:31:26Speaker 6: I mean, yes, well himself that yeah, I thought the
- 1:31:29Speaker 6: day like proclamation for him and give him a crown.
- 1:31:32Speaker 5: We don't have kings in America.
- 1:31:33Speaker 7: Hey, yo, Okay, but he received a proclamation honoring twenty years. Okay, okay,
- 1:31:40Speaker 7: the album that's the only thing that I left out
- 1:31:42Speaker 7: of there.
- 1:31:43Speaker 3: But no, it has in quotation King of the South,
- 1:31:45Speaker 3: like it's the album.
- 1:31:47Speaker 15: It's for the twenty years of the impact the memories
- 1:31:49Speaker 15: in Atlanta legacy that the album King garnered and leaned into.
- 1:31:53Speaker 7: Exactly, And when does the new album come out? I
