- 0:45Speaker 4: He'll tell you what it is we live?
- 0:48Speaker 2: Hello, who is this?
- 0:54Speaker 7: I'm just sad at the older generation expecting that the
- 0:58Speaker 7: younger generation should retire the thing made because I'm at
- 1:02Speaker 7: work and I see these guys, you know, working man.
- 1:09Speaker 7: I'm just like, man, I can't be that old when
- 1:12Speaker 7: I retire.
- 1:13Speaker 3: Well you know what they say, Well, somebody told me
- 1:14Speaker 3: back in the day, retirement is not an age, it's
- 1:17Speaker 3: an income. I don't even know if I believe that anymore,
- 1:19Speaker 3: because there's people I know that make mad money, but
- 1:21Speaker 3: they just love what they do.
- 1:22Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of people love to work.
- 1:24Speaker 8: And then a lot of people, you know, honestly don't
- 1:27Speaker 8: know how to prepare for the future. You also got
- 1:29Speaker 8: to think, you know, this is the generation where we're
- 1:32Speaker 8: starting to learn more about financial freedom. So a lot
- 1:34Speaker 8: of times, you know that the generation before us didn't
- 1:37Speaker 8: actually know how to retire, didn't know how to save
- 1:40Speaker 8: so they can retire.
- 1:41Speaker 2: So some people still have to work.
- 1:43Speaker 8: That's why when you see sometimes when you when you
- 1:44Speaker 8: go into those supermarkets and you go those places and
- 1:46Speaker 8: you see an older person working, you got to give
- 1:48Speaker 8: them patience and and help them out because sometimes they're
- 1:51Speaker 8: there because they have to and they're just trying to,
- 1:52Speaker 8: you know, get by like everybody else.
- 1:54Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know what they say when when you
- 1:56Speaker 3: stop moving, you know, you start to die.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Yeah, some people don't keep some people want to keep moving.
- 2:01Speaker 7: I guess that's maybe the profession I'm in, right, I'm
- 2:03Speaker 7: an electrician. I'm in a trade out of Vegas right now.
- 2:08Speaker 7: And I mean, these guys just don't want to retire.
- 2:12Speaker 7: They feel like they if they retire, they're gonna die.
- 2:14Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean that.
- 2:15Speaker 8: Could be a chance man, And I'll be honest, I'd
- 2:17Speaker 8: rather mess with an older electrician or older mechanic or
- 2:21Speaker 8: older doctor, because a lot of times.
- 2:22Speaker 2: They didn't see everything, they didn't been through it. You
- 2:24Speaker 2: know like that about your president? Well you don't feel like.
- 2:27Speaker 7: I feel like it should be an age captain president,
- 2:31Speaker 7: just like they got time you asked me.
- 2:35Speaker 3: Y'all want to y'all want everything else age, You want
- 2:38Speaker 3: your contact age, your electrician age.
- 2:40Speaker 2: But when it comes to your president, you don't want
- 2:42Speaker 2: know your own president.
- 2:43Speaker 8: You using a mechanic or electrician like they've been through
- 2:45Speaker 8: everything to see what works and what doesn't work. And
- 2:47Speaker 8: a lot of this new generation they rely on AI
- 2:51Speaker 8: or computers to see what's wrong rather than telling me.
- 2:53Speaker 3: But my president he keeps falling. Your president definitely keeps falling.
- 2:57Speaker 3: Tell you the president need a care give it?
- 2:59Speaker 2: Hello? Who says?

- 7:06Speaker 2: he cut it out of respect. I agree he did that.
- 7:08Speaker 17: But she's speaking for her and you're speaking for you,
- 7:10Speaker 17: So you respect your wife, But that doesn't speak to
- 7:12Speaker 17: how she feel about what you're present them. So he
- 7:15Speaker 17: could think he's respecting her and she may not feel it.
- 7:18Speaker 13: That's really but I voiced that too, because I do
- 7:21Speaker 13: understand that communication. It's Keith, and I voiced that and

- 11:50Speaker 2: it's been a second win, third win. Yeah.
- 11:53Speaker 18: I mean, you know, I'll see the way fifty work
- 11:55Speaker 18: and I'm like, yo, when he always be like, yo,
- 11:57Speaker 18: y'all lazy, y'all lazy. And I'm just realizing I thought
- 12:00Speaker 18: I was working when I wasn't. So during the COVID
- 12:02Speaker 18: it was just like a tough time, Like I'm sitting back,
- 12:04Speaker 18: wasn't no tours. I'm like, y' I gotta figure out
- 12:07Speaker 18: other things to do. So I started doing the music
- 12:10Speaker 18: and then I started, you know, messing with Flag lat TV,
- 12:13Speaker 18: and I just started realizing when you put your presence
- 12:15Speaker 18: out there to all these younger generations, the new kids
- 12:18Speaker 18: that really don't know us, they know g Unit or
- 12:21Speaker 18: some people do remember, like when I go on tour,
- 12:23Speaker 18: it'd be like, yeah, my father used to play or
- 12:25Speaker 18: my moms used to play Gen Unit, so it passed
- 12:28Speaker 18: down to that generation. So I'm going on my own
- 12:30Speaker 18: tours and you know, I'm just making myself valuable man,
- 12:32Speaker 18: putting that work in.
- 12:34Speaker 2: That upset you when you heard fifty day always lazy.
- 12:36Speaker 18: Nah, Not even that motivates because at a point sometimes
- 12:40Speaker 18: you do get lazy. Our careers. We was kind of spoiled.
- 12:42Speaker 18: Think about it. We had fifty where he was doing
- 12:45Speaker 18: everything for us. So as for like when we was
- 12:47Speaker 18: coming out, you had the young guns, for instance, I
- 12:49Speaker 18: remember Harvan saying, Jay is not gonna do what fifty
- 12:53Speaker 18: does for young guns. He was saying it in front
- 12:55Speaker 18: of their face. Y'all got fifty like fifty was, you know,
- 12:57Speaker 18: help us be in the videos. I can beg for that.
- 13:00Speaker 18: When he dropped, he when he shold eleven million records,
- 13:02Speaker 18: he drove, begged for mercy. You know what I'm saying.
- 13:04Speaker 18: I was in jail, you know, him and Eminem was
- 13:06Speaker 18: shotting me out. So I always showed my love to him.
- 13:08Speaker 18: I know how fifty is he you know, y'all the
- 13:10Speaker 18: same sign y'all crazy.
- 13:12Speaker 20: You know.
- 13:12Speaker 2: So it's a all good, you know.
- 13:14Speaker 18: But it just motivated me to work because I see
- 13:16Speaker 18: how he worked.
- 13:17Speaker 2: We'll be on tour.
- 13:18Speaker 18: We'll leave tour to go on movie set, go back,
- 13:20Speaker 18: go to the gym, twice a day.
- 13:22Speaker 2: I'm tired, you know.
- 13:23Speaker 3: I mean the Free Aale movement was a movement within itself,
- 13:26Speaker 3: Like I don't think we talk about about that, and
- 13:28Speaker 3: I don't know why. Randomly, I was thinking the other
- 13:30Speaker 3: day about when they shouted you out of there. I
- 13:32Speaker 3: think it was the Grand It was Eminem And that's
- 13:34Speaker 3: why I always shout out Eminem. You know what I'm saying,
- 13:35Speaker 3: Because he didn't have to do that. I was on
- 13:38Speaker 3: right because allen Ce seventy three too low.
- 13:40Speaker 8: Now this move right here, this hand in front of
- 13:43Speaker 8: the face. Where did that move come from? Because you know,
- 13:45Speaker 8: of course we've known you doing that for years. Where
- 13:48Speaker 8: did that come to?
- 13:48Speaker 18: That really came because I was on the run, like
- 13:51Speaker 18: I was at that point when we was in the club,
- 13:53Speaker 18: I was running like fifty was like yo. He said
- 13:55Speaker 18: to me, you know we had this judge, Judge Wong
- 13:57Speaker 18: and Queen's everybody knowing no joke, and he was like, Yo,
- 14:00Speaker 18: what are you gonna do? You're gonna go to court
- 14:02Speaker 18: or go on tour and we're blowing up now mixtapes
- 14:05Speaker 18: are crazy, but playing us everywhere, I'm like, yo, I'm running.
- 14:11Speaker 2: So when you're John Cena, just I guess jacket.
- 14:14Speaker 18: John Cena, he gives you credit, right, John Cena said,
- 14:17Speaker 18: his little brother, I believe did it, and his little
- 14:20Speaker 18: brother did him to do it, and I guess he
- 14:22Speaker 18: did it in the match. And it just got crazy
- 14:25Speaker 18: when you see the Reese doing what did you doate?
- 14:27Speaker 18: She made it, She took it to a whole other level.
- 14:29Speaker 18: She brought it back, had me trending for shelter, She
- 14:32Speaker 18: had me trending for you know, the whole week, and
- 14:34Speaker 18: then did it before her, right, Yeah. So it was
- 14:38Speaker 18: just like I mean, with that situation was crazy because
- 14:40Speaker 18: like you said, the black girl did it and it
- 14:41Speaker 18: was a problem then when before, Yeah, it was a problem.
- 14:45Speaker 18: So I addressed that, you know what I mean. I
- 14:47Speaker 18: talked about that too. That's crazy because when we playing
- 14:50Speaker 18: ball in the hood, you know, it's competitive.
- 14:51Speaker 2: Whatever you do, when you do your call shows, you
- 14:53Speaker 2: in competition.
- 14:54Speaker 9: That's right.
- 14:55Speaker 18: I see you go at people here. Y'all got the
- 14:57Speaker 18: best call shows in the world. None of y'all can
- 14:59Speaker 18: mess with me. I don't know how you get all
- 15:00Speaker 18: these cars.
- 15:01Speaker 2: You said it, not me, but that.
- 15:03Speaker 18: I told fifty he might as well just leave all
- 15:05Speaker 18: his cars with you brother.
- 15:06Speaker 2: You know, Fifth calls me and he'd be like, let
- 15:08Speaker 2: me get the call and I'll give him back his call.
- 15:11Speaker 8: You know, I usually have his Lambo or his Rolls
- 15:13Speaker 8: Royce and he driving for one day and then it sits,
- 15:15Speaker 8: and then he loses the key, and then I gotta
- 15:17Speaker 8: go get it again.
- 15:20Speaker 4: Playing around.
- 15:21Speaker 8: I want to go back, right, I know, yeah, you
- 15:23Speaker 8: a long time. Where do you think in your career
- 15:26Speaker 8: happened where you didn't go to that next level?
- 15:28Speaker 18: Right?
- 15:29Speaker 2: And I asked Fifty that and he said he thinks
- 15:31Speaker 2: it was the picking of the wrong single. What do
- 15:33Speaker 2: you what do you think it was interesting?
- 15:35Speaker 18: I think it was just a lot of drama within
- 15:37Speaker 18: the scope. When I came home, you know what I mean.
- 15:39Speaker 18: You had Fifty, he was Curtis, I'm Curtis Inerscope Jackson,
- 15:42Speaker 18: you know, and Jimmy ivin. You know, you had Game flipping,
- 15:45Speaker 18: and like it was just confusing to me because I
- 15:48Speaker 18: was on Game album and then you know, the game
- 15:51Speaker 18: thing happened and it was like, Yo, he's on the
- 15:53Speaker 18: same label as us, so why did he not just
- 15:56Speaker 18: get rid of him? You know, Fifty so more reckless
- 15:58Speaker 18: than the moment whatever it was like it was like
- 16:00Speaker 18: it was like a war in our own house because
- 16:02Speaker 18: you had record, you had the thing, Yes, I.
- 16:05Speaker 2: Had social doctor you don't love me?
- 16:07Speaker 18: Had I know you don't love me and pimping right,
- 16:09Speaker 18: But you gotta remember I came in the midst of
- 16:12Speaker 18: the fifty in the Scope drama con he was I'm
- 16:16Speaker 18: my own boss, you know how to you know how?
- 16:19Speaker 18: So I think sometimes and at that point we had
- 16:21Speaker 18: so many enemies. It was like we wasn't getting a
- 16:23Speaker 18: feature or nothing like you wasn't like we came to
- 16:25Speaker 18: a point where we never used anybody, like it was
- 16:28Speaker 18: just me Banks in fifty. You know, fifty never looked
- 16:31Speaker 18: to do features with nobody, so you know how it is.
- 16:34Speaker 18: It felt like everybody was against stuffs at that point
- 16:36Speaker 18: because nobody really messed with fifty in the industry, like
- 16:38Speaker 18: that'll mess with us.
- 16:39Speaker 2: That's what it was. The crazy story that you was like,
- 16:42Speaker 2: we might not make it out of here.
- 16:44Speaker 18: I wouldn't say we we were scared, but I could
- 16:46Speaker 18: say it was the Vibe Awards when we seen Shooe
- 16:49Speaker 18: Knight and earth Gotti and they walked past the trailer.
- 16:53Speaker 4: It is what it is.
- 16:53Speaker 18: We in New York but we in LA. You know
- 16:55Speaker 18: what I'm saying. We New York dudes, We in La.
- 16:57Speaker 18: You know what I'm saying. So you see Shook Knight.
- 16:59Speaker 18: You always heard about this guy, you know TV magazines,
- 17:02Speaker 18: but you know I never had in the club was
- 17:04Speaker 18: the first running, but this was the second. So he
- 17:06Speaker 18: walks past the trailer with EARV and fifty. Just look
- 17:10Speaker 18: at James Cruise. James Cruse, you know, shout to him.
- 17:12Speaker 18: He was a little Shames Scrus is always in a situation.
- 17:15Speaker 18: Industry guy. He got to run around with fifty bulletpoof vests.
- 17:18Speaker 18: You know, Chris Lidy was in the trenches.
- 17:19Speaker 2: It's crazy.
- 17:20Speaker 18: So he just tapped James CRUs and say, yo, go
- 17:22Speaker 18: buy twenty knoives, go.
- 17:24Speaker 2: By twenty knobs.
- 17:25Speaker 18: Yeah, just go to the Hallway store. I'm like, that's
- 17:27Speaker 18: what we're gonna do. Just seem you know, they might
- 17:30Speaker 18: get crazy. It was about twenty to fifteen or or
- 17:33Speaker 18: something like that. So James Cruse goes to the Hallway
- 17:35Speaker 18: store by twenty knives. He gives the bags fifty, handing
- 17:39Speaker 18: them out and then you know when we got there,
- 17:40Speaker 18: we had beef with Fat Joe.
- 17:42Speaker 2: At that point.
- 17:43Speaker 18: We doctor Dre's there, so you know that's obviously a
- 17:45Speaker 18: beef for shig Knight.
- 17:46Speaker 4: Shi Night got like some.
- 17:47Speaker 18: Crazy looking Compton looking dudes with him, you know what
- 17:50Speaker 18: I'm saying. So it just you felt the energy to
- 17:52Speaker 18: where we had our chairs like this. You're watching the show,
- 17:54Speaker 18: watch watching the show. We had this like yo, you
- 17:57Speaker 18: felt the energy like you felt something was gonna go down.
- 18:00Speaker 18: And that's when you know we wasn't taking pictures back then.
- 18:02Speaker 18: So I guess he has Dre for the autograph pops
- 18:05Speaker 18: on Dre Dra falls, but he alady might get up
- 18:08Speaker 18: start popping on him, and it just got crazy. Na
- 18:10Speaker 18: I started coming from everywhere, and that's when you know
- 18:12Speaker 18: one of the dudes got stabbed.
- 18:13Speaker 2: So my question is if there was twenty knins, how
- 18:15Speaker 2: come only young Buck didn't stab him?
- 18:17Speaker 18: No, that dude got stabbed in the chest. Young Buck
- 18:19Speaker 18: stabbed him with a fuck. I don't know where that got.
- 18:23Speaker 18: I don't know where you.
- 18:25Speaker 2: Just came with the fault. Nobody gave bucket knife. Nah,
- 18:28Speaker 2: but no, I don't know what. That's why I was tripping.
- 18:31Speaker 2: I know I had one.
- 18:32Speaker 18: Anybody else did you know what I'm saying? But Buck,
- 18:34Speaker 18: matter of fact him and Banks was backstage.
- 18:37Speaker 2: They was about to.
- 18:37Speaker 18: Perform, and he just came with the fuck as soon
- 18:41Speaker 18: as they started talking that time, when they started, we
- 18:43Speaker 18: went back to the mansion after that happened because the
- 18:46Speaker 18: kid got stabbed in the chests. He collapsed everything. The
- 18:48Speaker 18: fork wasn't nothing, And we got back to the mansion
- 18:51Speaker 18: and it was on the news. It was like attempted murder,
- 18:54Speaker 18: young Buck. Young Buck was like, I ain't do that, mate,
- 18:59Speaker 18: switch up with that time. That's why be standing out
- 19:04Speaker 18: was like, I ain't do that, man, because your buck
- 19:07Speaker 18: hit him with the funck. He ain't stabbing him in
- 19:08Speaker 18: the chest.
- 19:11Speaker 2: He kind of ran with the story though, didn't. I mean,
- 19:13Speaker 2: you know, come on, man, Rappers man, we got more
- 19:17Speaker 2: with Tony Yao. When we come back to Breakfast Club.
- 19:20Speaker 2: Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning.

- 19:43Speaker 18: We was in the studio and that was that's Sony, right, Sony.
- 19:46Speaker 18: Remember they had the one across the street and they
- 19:48Speaker 18: had the big building, the.
- 19:49Speaker 8: Big buildings where everybody would say Michael Jackson would take
- 19:52Speaker 8: on the rooms, right right.
- 19:53Speaker 18: So we walking in and at that time, I think
- 19:57Speaker 18: we've seen Wyd Cleft and you know, I think I
- 19:59Speaker 18: think was there was Haitian Jack, then Haitian Jack. We
- 20:03Speaker 18: see them in the lobby. It's just me and fifty. Yeah,
- 20:07Speaker 18: you know back, Yeah, they was all in the lobby
- 20:09Speaker 18: with Cleft. We've seen Clef and I think Prizewell was
- 20:13Speaker 18: there too or whatever. So you know, we go upstairs,
- 20:16Speaker 18: but we're not worried about Fifth. I swear have got
- 20:18Speaker 18: fifth got I don't got nothing on me. Fifth got
- 20:20Speaker 18: a fourth to fifth, No safety on them. We go upstairs.
- 20:23Speaker 18: We got a session. So Clark Kent, his nephew, ended
- 20:26Speaker 18: up being a DJ Giz. But Giz was not really
- 20:29Speaker 18: a street dude. He was just a cool dude, you know,
- 20:32Speaker 18: shout to Clark Kent. He was just like, yo, here, fifty,
- 20:34Speaker 18: I got a DJ for you.

- 20:50Speaker 18: in the room with the enginet. Forgot what fifty was
- 20:52Speaker 18: working on. I guess I'm gonna keep it real. I
- 20:54Speaker 18: don't know was sin of Sony. I think in my mind,
- 20:58Speaker 18: I think Prizewell said something. I don't know why, like
- 21:01Speaker 18: he must, you know we he I think he said something,
- 21:05Speaker 18: keep it really. I don't think this true, trust me.
- 21:09Speaker 18: That was the information that was you know what I
- 21:11Speaker 18: mean that prize Well said something to Jah ruined him.
- 21:14Speaker 2: So we in the room. You just hear boo boo
- 21:17Speaker 2: boo commotion. These dudes come in like it's.
- 21:20Speaker 18: A movie, like, yo, what's up now?
- 21:21Speaker 2: But they ain't.

- 21:31Speaker 18: So it was was Earth the No, it was Earth Brother.
- 21:34Speaker 18: I think it was Black Child at that point, Joe,
- 21:37Speaker 18: I think somebody else. But so we started to get
- 21:40Speaker 18: it on. Nobody turned off the light while we're getting
- 21:42Speaker 18: it on. The light like turned off because you know how,
- 21:45Speaker 18: somebody bump into the switch.
- 21:47Speaker 2: So we fighting.
- 21:47Speaker 18: Everything is dark. You don't know what's going on. You
- 21:49Speaker 18: just hit melee so or you heard get the gun.
- 21:52Speaker 18: You know, Fish bluffed them because the gun was in
- 21:54Speaker 18: the other room. That's why I said, Jo ruin. He
- 21:56Speaker 18: wouldn't even be it. He would have been gone. Like
- 21:59Speaker 18: our career, this would have been totally different if that
- 22:01Speaker 18: gun was in that room. And I swear on my
- 22:03Speaker 18: dead father, like I'm telling you the truth. The gun
- 22:06Speaker 18: was in the other room. I've seen it. I'm saying

- 22:19Speaker 18: Everybody started running out. But the gun was in the
- 22:22Speaker 18: other room, and that was it. Fifty had a scratch
- 22:24Speaker 18: on his back right and I got stabbed in my
- 22:27Speaker 18: hands and my finger was like cut right here. So
- 22:29Speaker 18: look it looked crazy because it was hanging a little bit.
- 22:32Speaker 18: But look, this is all I got that and that
- 22:35Speaker 18: that was it.
- 22:35Speaker 3: You got to think about how blessed y'all are, because
- 22:37Speaker 3: think about all the violence y'all escape, because I ain't
- 22:40Speaker 3: never even heard about the shooting that happened before the
- 22:42Speaker 3: young man got slapped, right.
- 22:44Speaker 18: Nah, but it's after that house get yeah, yeah, it's cool.

- 23:00Speaker 4: I'm a crib like.
- 23:01Speaker 2: It was a lot of bullet you know. It's crazy.
- 23:03Speaker 18: And I always think God, like I always seen my
- 23:05Speaker 18: prayers before I left the house, because I remember one
- 23:07Speaker 18: day I had a plaque and people won't even believe
- 23:09Speaker 18: his story, and a bullet fell out of it and
- 23:11Speaker 18: my father found it.
- 23:12Speaker 2: He was staying with me.
- 23:13Speaker 4: At the time.
- 23:14Speaker 18: The next day, my mom's crib got shot up, or
- 23:16Speaker 18: could have been the same day, like when my mom's
- 23:18Speaker 18: crib got shot up. So I mean, you know, God
- 23:20Speaker 18: is good, bro, A bullet your plaque a bullet Like
- 23:22Speaker 18: I had a fifty cent plaque and it got bullets
- 23:25Speaker 18: in it and it's above my door, and my father
- 23:27Speaker 18: found it. He's like if somebody shot the house up,
- 23:29Speaker 18: And I'm like, nah, that fell.
- 23:30Speaker 4: Off the plaque.
- 23:31Speaker 18: And the next day, like my mom's crib got shot up.
- 23:34Speaker 18: So you get signs, you know, to be low and
- 23:36Speaker 18: you gotta move right because one thing about us is
- 23:38Speaker 18: we knew how to move like, all right, cool, if
- 23:40Speaker 18: it's hot, cool.
- 23:41Speaker 2: I'm good.
- 23:42Speaker 18: Like when my mom's crib got shot up. I went
- 23:43Speaker 18: out there and was looking to do stuff and fifty
- 23:46Speaker 18: called me like, yo, bro, you're outside. You got something
- 23:49Speaker 18: on you. You're bugging out. Bro use your brain. Bro,
- 23:52Speaker 18: it's checks not checkers.
- 23:53Speaker 8: That's why I say, you know, it must have been
- 23:55Speaker 8: like seven eight years ago to see you in fifty
- 23:59Speaker 8: enjoying which'all didn't have before. But I mean because they
- 24:02Speaker 8: couldn't go to the clubs and experience the records like
- 24:05Speaker 8: y'all should have.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Y'all couldn't go to these events and go to these things.
- 24:08Speaker 2: And it wasn't because of the rappers.
- 24:09Speaker 18: It was mainly because of the hip Hop Police, because
- 24:11Speaker 18: there was times where they'd be like, no genune and
- 24:13Speaker 18: no dipset in the clubs all the clubs in Manhattan.
- 24:16Speaker 18: So hip hop police. You remember Curly Top, He's retired

- 24:29Speaker 18: dudes used to tell us, yo, you can't come to
- 24:31Speaker 18: this club. You know much money we missed out though.

- 25:45Speaker 2: Now if he just joined us. A young lady named
- 25:47Speaker 2: Lima called this morning. She wanted to know.
- 25:51Speaker 8: I don't know if she who she's dealing with, but
- 25:52Speaker 8: she wanted to know if you are a liar or Cheatah,
- 25:54Speaker 8: Are you born like that or is it learned behavior?
- 25:57Speaker 2: To Charlamagne, I don't think you're born a liar. I
- 26:01Speaker 2: think that you know. Kids lie, and you see that
- 26:03Speaker 2: we all got young kids. You know what I'm saying.
- 26:05Speaker 3: Kids lie simply because they don't want to get in trouble.
- 26:08Speaker 3: So I think that's a form of self preservation. I
- 26:10Speaker 3: think when it comes to infidelity and cheating, that is
- 26:13Speaker 3: absolutely positively uh learned behavior one.
- 26:17Speaker 10: Hello, who is Vanessa?
- 26:19Speaker 2: Hey, Vanessa, talk to us. Vanessa.
- 26:21Speaker 16: Well, I want to say good morning and thank you.
- 26:23Speaker 19: That's so much for having inert in the morning and
- 26:27Speaker 19: we all listen to you appreciate it.
- 26:29Speaker 2: That that's Vanessa. Your phone is crazy. You got us
- 26:32Speaker 2: on bluetooth for speaker.
- 26:34Speaker 16: No, I do not.
- 26:35Speaker 13: I have had that.
- 26:38Speaker 2: Yeah, we could barely hear you. Can you take us
- 26:39Speaker 2: off that headset right fast?
- 26:40Speaker 3: I'm sorry and thank you Vanessa too. We appreciate you
- 26:43Speaker 3: listening and appreciating us.
- 26:45Speaker 16: Ah, good morning.
- 26:46Speaker 19: Can y'all hear me?
- 26:47Speaker 2: Bet ye?
- 26:48Speaker 13: Okay.
- 26:49Speaker 16: So my thoughts, I think it's a genetic behavioral trade.
- 26:53Speaker 16: I think that when you grow up in a household
- 26:56Speaker 16: and somebody in that family goes along with that behavior
- 27:00Speaker 16: of cheating and lying, I think it passes down to
- 27:03Speaker 16: their kids. With that being said, I could grow up
- 27:07Speaker 16: in the house old with my father.
- 27:08Speaker 19: She's not my mother, and he brought me along to
- 27:12Speaker 19: every female day that he had.
- 27:13Speaker 16: Because they had children. And then we somehow said that
- 27:16Speaker 16: a night.
- 27:17Speaker 4: Damn no.
- 27:19Speaker 2: So so how you grew up? You got a bunch
- 27:20Speaker 2: of step mommies.
- 27:21Speaker 16: Yes, I have an oldest sister that nothing about. She's
- 27:27Speaker 16: an another country.
- 27:28Speaker 19: And keep in Mama, that is Hispanic. That's why I
- 27:31Speaker 19: don't saw all his fancy and he just all cheat around.
- 27:34Speaker 2: Damn it. Man, So you don't date his fanic men.
- 27:37Speaker 22: I do not.
- 27:38Speaker 2: That's right, you date black men because black men don't
- 27:40Speaker 2: cheat exactly.
- 27:42Speaker 16: That's right that Caucasians, but they're most honest, honestly, Jesus.
- 27:48Speaker 19: I just think that said with saying that my father,
- 27:52Speaker 19: he taught my brother that that's the game of life.
- 27:56Speaker 19: You cannot just have one so that you need have
- 27:58Speaker 19: the mob.
- 27:59Speaker 10: Do not be sending.
- 28:02Speaker 3: My daddy told me that when I was young, though,
- 28:03Speaker 3: my daddy literally looked me, looked at me and said, oh,
- 28:05Speaker 3: you only got one girlfriend. No, as I got older
- 28:08Speaker 3: and we got older, he said I was absolutely right
- 28:10Speaker 3: to have one woman. But you know, when I was young,
- 28:13Speaker 3: he definitely messed me up.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Hello, who's this?
- 28:15Speaker 9: This is Brian? How you doing?
- 28:17Speaker 2: Brian? What's going on?
- 28:18Speaker 9: So I think that it's the parent's fault and here's why. Okay,
- 28:23Speaker 9: we inadvertently teach our kids to lie when they're young
- 28:27Speaker 9: and they hear us talking to our significant other.
- 28:31Speaker 23: And let's just.
- 28:32Speaker 9: Hypothetically, say someone knocks at the door and you see
- 28:36Speaker 9: who it is.
- 28:36Speaker 2: You tell him I'm not here.
- 28:42Speaker 8: You're right, you're right, because I remember Jehovah Whitneys used
- 28:45Speaker 8: to come knocking on the doors and my parents would
- 28:48Speaker 8: be like, tell me that home.
- 28:49Speaker 2: You right. Well, guess what I was a Jehovah witness.
- 28:52Speaker 12: I was.
- 28:53Speaker 3: I was the person going out on field to the
- 28:55Speaker 3: field service every Saturday with my mom and my sister
- 28:58Speaker 3: and knocking on those doors.
- 29:00Speaker 2: U's okay, So all y'all dishonest people.
- 29:02Speaker 3: Okay, I hope y'all don't make it into heaven because
- 29:05Speaker 3: y'all don't be come one in one hundred and.
- 29:08Speaker 8: Because even because even when people call, like your mom
- 29:11Speaker 8: and daddy be like, tell them I'm sleeping.
- 29:13Speaker 2: So you're right, exactly exactly. Damn.
- 29:18Speaker 3: That's a good point, brother, That is a fantastic Now,
- 29:21Speaker 3: that's the perfect point because we all do that.
- 29:23Speaker 8: We all do that to our kids or our kids
- 29:24Speaker 8: to hear us, but who call it or don't answer
- 29:26Speaker 8: the phone.
- 29:27Speaker 4: I'm for it all the time.
- 29:28Speaker 3: That's why I tell my kids. When you do in
- 29:30Speaker 3: the doorbell ring or somebody knots, don't go to it.
- 29:33Speaker 3: You go get an adult, all right. So when you
- 29:35Speaker 3: go get that adult, that adult can make the executive decision.
- 29:38Speaker 3: That's when you tell the adult. Hey telling people I
- 29:40Speaker 3: ain't here, right, that's a lie. But but I'm telling
- 29:43Speaker 3: that to the adult, not the kids. But they can't
- 29:45Speaker 3: hear it, No they don't. That's what you gotta whisper you.
- 29:47Speaker 3: You don't got to you know how to use the
- 29:48Speaker 3: inside voice, use your inside voice.
- 29:51Speaker 8: Or somebody come ask you for money and you say
- 29:52Speaker 8: I ain't got it, your kids know you got that's
- 29:54Speaker 8: a lot.
- 29:54Speaker 11: No, no, no, no, no, no no.
- 29:55Speaker 3: I tell my kids that. No, it's perfectly okay to say.
- 29:58Speaker 3: All right, trust me. My oldest daughter hears those conversations
- 30:01Speaker 3: when people calling me.
- 30:03Speaker 2: She hears though that.
- 30:03Speaker 3: I tell her straight up, like you can't. You can't
- 30:06Speaker 3: just do for everybody, you know, But what's the more
- 30:09Speaker 3: other story? I don't know, we heard a bunch of
- 30:13Speaker 3: them just now. I didn't lie just now. I don't
- 30:15Speaker 3: know I heard a bunch of them, did I personally
- 30:18Speaker 3: think that all of this stuff is a learned behavior,
- 30:21Speaker 3: you know, because when you're young and you lie as
- 30:24Speaker 3: a child, is just self preservation. I don't think you're
- 30:26Speaker 3: necessarily you have I don't think you have the attention
- 30:28Speaker 3: of I'm lying. You're just trying to save yourself and
- 30:30Speaker 3: protect yourself.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Okay, I guess the breakfast slug of morning the Breakfast Club.
- 30:42Speaker 8: Everybody is DJ n V Charlamagne the God. We are
- 30:45Speaker 8: the Breakfast Club. We got our guest host with us, Yes, indeed,
- 30:48Speaker 8: Erica Dutchess, she's here, she's joining us. And we got
- 30:51Speaker 8: some special guests in the building.
- 30:57Speaker 2: How you pronounced it?
- 30:59Speaker 10: Is it it?
- 31:01Speaker 4: I used to struggle with it too.
- 31:02Speaker 8: Yeah, but we got the homie Withdy mclady he's been
- 31:05Speaker 8: here before and Lavell Adams great welcome.
- 31:07Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, that's right. Absolutely, Caden drew from power Book
- 31:11Speaker 2: to man y'all.
- 31:13Speaker 3: It's funny, right because y'all got to be some of
- 31:14Speaker 3: the most famous people in black coaches at the moment,
- 31:17Speaker 3: you know, think.
- 31:18Speaker 5: So it's been love, man, Yeah, it's been loved. People
- 31:20Speaker 5: come up to you, smack you in the airport like
- 31:23Speaker 5: it's crazy.
- 31:23Speaker 2: It's cracky, I know anywhere.
- 31:26Speaker 4: It was in the airport. Lady had a baby, white lady.
- 31:28Speaker 4: She was like, I love what you're doing. Appreciate it.
- 31:32Speaker 4: But it just caught me, you know what I mean,
- 31:34Speaker 4: caught me off guard. But yeah, it's been love. That's
- 31:36Speaker 4: a lot of love. Yeah, I got that in.
- 31:38Speaker 21: I think it's smacked. But the dude stopped me. It
- 31:40Speaker 21: was like, bro, I know you right, like you've you've
- 31:42Speaker 21: been in Houston. I'm like, listen, I've never been using
- 31:44Speaker 21: my life, so I know I've never met before, you know,
- 31:47Speaker 21: and like it was it was definitely from the show,
- 31:50Speaker 21: but you know it was it was funny, like.
- 31:52Speaker 2: He started the character you played. Way did he smack?
- 31:53Speaker 2: You just tell us it was?
- 31:55Speaker 4: It was on my arm?
- 31:55Speaker 3: Okay, just making sure the book season three? Actually yeah, yes, yeah, yeah, yes,
- 32:03Speaker 3: it's been a next season. So the last two episodes
- 32:05Speaker 3: are gonna be crazy and I have not watched them
- 32:06Speaker 3: even though they leaked.
- 32:07Speaker 4: Appreciate that.
- 32:07Speaker 2: Okay, how can y'all top with y'all done?
- 32:10Speaker 4: I think you know the writers have you know, only
- 32:12Speaker 4: gotten better.
- 32:14Speaker 21: Brad really cares about the show, the showrunner and really
- 32:17Speaker 21: takes care of us and it's invested on making it
- 32:19Speaker 21: new and exciting and truthful.
- 32:21Speaker 4: I think that you know, you keep it truthful and
- 32:24Speaker 4: you know it tops itself, I think.
- 32:26Speaker 5: And a whole lot of drama. You know, Twitter loves drama,
- 32:29Speaker 5: so I think they've been doing a great job with it.
- 32:32Speaker 3: And you've been in love the whole damn season. I know, Man,
- 32:35Speaker 3: how that go from being a gangster. You're still a gangster,
- 32:36Speaker 3: but you're in love now.
- 32:38Speaker 5: On the show, being in love is kind of boring
- 32:39Speaker 5: to me, is boring. I'm like, man, I'm ready to
- 32:42Speaker 5: catch your body. It's crazy, horrible, right, It's a horrible
- 32:46Speaker 5: way to think. But that show has definitely altered my
- 32:49Speaker 5: mind to think like that.
- 32:50Speaker 2: It's weird.
- 32:50Speaker 4: It's like, man, I love a scene like, man, when
- 32:53Speaker 4: do I pop somebody?
- 32:54Speaker 8: But I was going to ask, how does that change
- 32:55Speaker 8: your character? Because now you're into this, right, you want
- 32:58Speaker 8: to pop somebody? So now if somebody says something you
- 33:01Speaker 8: think like.
- 33:02Speaker 2: Are you still in character? Like what you say? Are
- 33:04Speaker 2: you still like that? Or do you get out of character?
- 33:06Speaker 22: Nah?
- 33:06Speaker 4: I get out of character. I get out of character.
- 33:09Speaker 4: But it depends if I'm with my family, I'm still
- 33:12Speaker 4: in it. A little bit because you know.
- 33:13Speaker 5: People don't really respect boundaries. Nah, they and because we're
- 33:16Speaker 5: on TV, we're no longer human, you know what I mean.
- 33:18Speaker 5: I just feel like everybody treat just like an item.
- 33:20Speaker 5: So it's like I'm always like just thinking about those
- 33:23Speaker 5: things and making sure my family is straight while I'm outside.
- 33:25Speaker 4: But it's always been loved though, and.
- 33:26Speaker 8: It has to be different, right because because of the
- 33:29Speaker 8: characters that you play, you have like very different demographics.
- 33:32Speaker 8: Like you have the young people that might follow this,
- 33:34Speaker 8: but then you have the older people that love you
- 33:36Speaker 8: and this, So how does that work?
- 33:38Speaker 4: No, it's for me.
- 33:39Speaker 5: I know, like I've been to like the hoodies of
- 33:42Speaker 5: the hoods and people like, yo, that's you me up there,
- 33:45Speaker 5: Like I appreciate that, and I'm like, oh, thank you.
- 33:47Speaker 2: So I always say police tell you that he I
- 33:52Speaker 2: relate the character King, that's me.
- 33:56Speaker 8: Demographics love you and the younger demographics love you. Revel
- 34:00Speaker 8: because the new edition you got your aunties and grandma's
- 34:04Speaker 8: that know them for new addition that show a different
- 34:06Speaker 8: type of love.
- 34:07Speaker 2: But then you got homies from the corner that look
- 34:09Speaker 2: at him differently.
- 34:09Speaker 3: So that's interesting, I thought, I thought, because I thought
- 34:12Speaker 3: that there was a young demo that watched The Bobby
- 34:14Speaker 3: Brown Story New Edition too.
- 34:15Speaker 2: I feel like that introduced them to a new audience.
- 34:17Speaker 4: No, absolutely, for sure. I agree.
- 34:19Speaker 5: I agree, yeah, because my kids love it. The kids
- 34:22Speaker 5: call me Bobby Brown, you Bobby Bro, and you get
- 34:25Speaker 5: tired of that.
- 34:27Speaker 4: Yeah, a little bit.
- 34:29Speaker 2: I feel like I can't trump Bobby though. No, yes, man,
- 34:33Speaker 2: right now, and the culture. I don't know, Bro, but
- 34:35Speaker 2: I've seen him in the hall. The first thing I
- 34:37Speaker 2: thought it was Bobby.
- 34:37Speaker 5: I was like, that's what I thought, man, But I
- 34:41Speaker 5: mean no, I mean I was just watching the fight
- 34:44Speaker 5: and it was just white guy.
- 34:45Speaker 4: He was like, Yo, Caine and the OI.
- 34:47Speaker 2: But he was like, but I'm like, that's crazy, son,
- 34:52Speaker 2: Like a little flirt right there, I was. I don't
- 34:53Speaker 2: know New York.
- 34:55Speaker 4: So nobody really tripped on it.
- 34:56Speaker 2: It was crazy. Would have.
- 35:03Speaker 7: Power.
- 35:03Speaker 3: One of them shows that the culture really gets involved
- 35:06Speaker 3: in meeting that absolute When it's on, everybody tweeting about it,
- 35:09Speaker 3: it's like it's like a family gathering and then people
- 35:12Speaker 3: talking about what happened, you know, that night on social
- 35:15Speaker 3: media afterwards. People care about y'all personal lives, like that's rare.
- 35:19Speaker 3: Everybody don't get that, you know, I think.
- 35:21Speaker 21: It's it's an important thing, you know, to separate the
- 35:24Speaker 21: character from the from the from the actor. You know,
- 35:26Speaker 21: like we watched like Daniel d Lewis. We don't think
- 35:29Speaker 21: like he's you know, built a butcher and you know,
- 35:33Speaker 21: what's his name, Daniel Daniel playing View. You know, we
- 35:36Speaker 21: just look at him like that's a that's a really
- 35:38Speaker 21: dope artist, right. I think, like you playing Bobby Brown,
- 35:41Speaker 21: you're playing Kane, like that's a testament to your artistry.
- 35:44Speaker 4: I appreciate that, bro.
- 35:46Speaker 3: But you know, you do a fantastic plan. You do
- 35:51Speaker 3: a fantastic job playing Drew. And the crazy part is
- 35:53Speaker 3: everybody's like, oh, is he really you know, really gay?
- 35:56Speaker 3: And I'm like does it matter? You know what I'm saying, like,
- 35:58Speaker 3: what do it matter? If Lavelle was like, what does
- 36:01Speaker 3: it matter?
- 36:01Speaker 4: I don't think it does matter, you know.
- 36:02Speaker 21: I think that, you know, like it's important to separate
- 36:05Speaker 21: those things, you know, important to separate the personal from
- 36:08Speaker 21: from the work, because I have to be able to
- 36:11Speaker 21: play everything as an artist, you know, that's that's our
- 36:14Speaker 21: our job is to tell the story and tell it
- 36:16Speaker 21: as truthfully as possible, you know, like if I was
- 36:19Speaker 21: playing you know your life story right, and you watch
- 36:22Speaker 21: it and go like, you're not you're not telling the truth.
- 36:25Speaker 4: I'm doing you a disservice paying.
- 36:32Speaker 2: Some people saying when you see the.
- 36:38Speaker 8: Script, was there any doubts like wow, maybe I don't
- 36:40Speaker 8: want to play that, or it was like, no, I'm
- 36:42Speaker 8: an act and this is what I'm gonna do, regardless.
- 36:43Speaker 2: Of what people. That's what it was.
- 36:44Speaker 9: Man.
- 36:44Speaker 21: I'm an actor, you know, and I have to tell
- 36:47Speaker 21: the truth. And if I'm not telling the truth as
- 36:48Speaker 21: an artist, then get me out and show.
- 36:50Speaker 4: You know what I mean.
- 36:50Speaker 21: Like if I'm not going, if I'm not committing one
- 36:53Speaker 21: hundred percent, then I don't deserve the part.
- 36:56Speaker 4: And that's just how I see it.
- 36:57Speaker 21: Like, you know what, regardless of whatever it is, whatever
- 37:00Speaker 21: role it is, it's like if you're putting in the work,
- 37:03Speaker 21: investigating in yourself and trying to tell the truth, and
- 37:05Speaker 21: you know you deserve to be on that platform and
- 37:07Speaker 21: tell that story.
- 37:08Speaker 3: It's an interesting social experiment though whenever there's a love
- 37:12Speaker 3: making scene between a man and a woman, nobody cares,
- 37:15Speaker 3: but we see it pop up on Power or one
- 37:17Speaker 3: of those other shows.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Everybody's up in arms. Ah, man, I can't watch this. Man.
- 37:20Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm gonna tell starts. If they don't stop
- 37:23Speaker 3: doing this, I'm not gonna watch. But I'm like our
- 37:24Speaker 3: people will be like, why why do nobody ever asked that?
- 37:27Speaker 2: What is men and women?
- 37:28Speaker 18: You know?
- 37:29Speaker 21: You know, I think you know if you're talking about
- 37:32Speaker 21: the first first uh power power Amari Hardwick and Laila
- 37:38Speaker 21: Leela look really good together though, you know, like like
- 37:42Speaker 21: there's back muscles and everything like that, so I understand, like,
- 37:45Speaker 21: you know, the the aesthetic is what we're used to,
- 37:48Speaker 21: and we're not used to seeing queer love making on,
- 37:50Speaker 21: especially on a mainstream.
- 37:51Speaker 2: Show like this, and but it's real life and it happens.
- 37:54Speaker 4: It's real life and it happens. And I think my
- 37:56Speaker 4: biggest thing was like I haven't gotten the back yet,
- 37:59Speaker 4: like my heart was back. I haven't gotten that.
- 38:01Speaker 21: Like physical physical like strength because you know what I mean,
- 38:04Speaker 21: Like I just turned thirty one, so I'm like I
- 38:06Speaker 21: still got to like get my man meat on.
- 38:08Speaker 20: But I'm.
- 38:11Speaker 2: Not like that like that you practice.
- 38:15Speaker 4: I'm talking about you.
- 38:24Speaker 2: Need your man your man body, you know, and like
- 38:27Speaker 2: and so like.
- 38:28Speaker 21: That's that's whenever I have those scenes, I'm like, I
- 38:30Speaker 21: want to make sure I look as good as possible.
- 38:32Speaker 21: I want to make you know what I mean, I
- 38:33Speaker 21: want to look good. And that's you know the same
- 38:35Speaker 21: thing with Caine, Like you want to make sure he looks.
- 38:37Speaker 5: Good, said the bar So. I remember reading the tweets.
- 38:41Speaker 5: Somebody was like, Kane looks like a college dropout kid
- 38:44Speaker 5: that just play Call of Duty.
- 38:46Speaker 4: And I was like, damn, I need to get in
- 38:47Speaker 4: the gym. Oh for sure, that's all I think.
- 38:50Speaker 5: I hear that in my ears while I'm like, you
- 38:52Speaker 5: know what I mean when I'm like running out of energy,
- 38:54Speaker 5: I just hear him saying, like college drop out body,
- 38:57Speaker 5: I'm going crazy.
- 38:58Speaker 8: When we come back, we got more with the how

- 39:21Speaker 5: Me personally, not because I come I come from social media,
- 39:23Speaker 5: and I just used to say that didn't even really matter.
- 39:25Speaker 4: I just said it to get like a reaction.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Or some shit. You have people look for your damn
- 39:29Speaker 2: old tweets.
- 39:30Speaker 5: You're right, But that's where I was at though, Like
- 39:32Speaker 5: that's the space I was in. I just wanted to
- 39:34Speaker 5: get a reaction. That's what Twitter was for, is like
- 39:36Speaker 5: to see how many retweets and how many like you get,
- 39:38Speaker 5: you know what I mean. So now I look at it,
- 39:39Speaker 5: it's like that's just somebody just trying to get attention.
- 39:42Speaker 5: But it don't bother me, thought know.
- 39:43Speaker 8: And you gotta be careful, Uh come from the I
- 39:49Speaker 8: come from theater a little bit, and and we learned
- 39:52Speaker 8: really quickly not to like you can't read everything every night,
- 39:56Speaker 8: you know, because it affects your work.
- 39:58Speaker 4: So I come from that like where it came.
- 40:00Speaker 21: I was like, you know, I'm not reading everything all
- 40:03Speaker 21: the time, Like I kind of just post or whatever,
- 40:05Speaker 21: and it's go by my business.
- 40:06Speaker 12: All right.
- 40:07Speaker 8: And we had a Mario up here last year, maybe
- 40:10Speaker 8: two years ago, and I asked him with Charlamagne, and
- 40:12Speaker 8: I asked him about the character. Was he ever fearful
- 40:14Speaker 8: that he was gonna be stuck in that character, right,
- 40:17Speaker 8: And you know he was a little upset about it
- 40:19Speaker 8: because he said he's an actor. But sometimes people see
- 40:21Speaker 8: Omar as ghosts, you know, sometimes they see you as Bobby.
- 40:25Speaker 2: Do you ever feel full of roles you take to
- 40:27Speaker 2: be stuck in that character?
- 40:29Speaker 21: No God will provide there it is, I agree, you
- 40:32Speaker 21: know what I mean, you know, like it's it's it's
- 40:34Speaker 21: a scarcity mindset to think that way, I think, But.
- 40:37Speaker 8: It happens to people like you. Look at Steve Le,
- 40:39Speaker 8: He's always Steve Verkle. You look at the guy that
- 40:40Speaker 8: plays I can't remember the brother's name. He played Chris
- 40:43Speaker 8: Rock and everybody hears Chris. He's always looked at that.
- 40:46Speaker 2: You know, I don't know, you just.
- 40:47Speaker 10: Want to go.
- 40:53Speaker 2: See him as dead little boy. If it's not a
- 40:55Speaker 2: blessing that I think it is.
- 41:00Speaker 4: You know, it stands the tests of time, and you
- 41:01Speaker 4: know we leave that legacy for sure. I think it does,
- 41:04Speaker 4: you know, But actors want to.
- 41:07Speaker 21: Be transcendent, right and be able to disappear in the roles.
- 41:09Speaker 21: And I think a part of that is the onus
- 41:11Speaker 21: on the actor to like switch it up a little
- 41:13Speaker 21: bit and try something different and never let themselves get
- 41:17Speaker 21: hold in one thing.
- 41:18Speaker 4: But I think being scared of that brings it on too,
- 41:20Speaker 4: you know what I mean.
- 41:21Speaker 8: Do you ever feel a way, you know, because you
- 41:23Speaker 8: are a theater actor actor, so you've been through the course,
- 41:26Speaker 8: you've been through the classes, and then you see somebody
- 41:28Speaker 8: that might be, you know, a social media person that
- 41:30Speaker 8: gets a roll because they are social media. Does that
- 41:32Speaker 8: ever make you feel a way like they didn't get
- 41:34Speaker 8: their chops wet, they didn't do the proper training that
- 41:37Speaker 8: you've been through.
- 41:38Speaker 2: Does that ever make you feel away?
- 41:41Speaker 21: If I'm be honest, absolutely, Whenever I get whenever that
- 41:44Speaker 21: comes up for me and I get tight like that,
- 41:45Speaker 21: I'm like, well, that's just my ego, Like that's me,
- 41:48Speaker 21: you know, that's me because I didn't get that part
- 41:50Speaker 21: or I didn't do it, you know what I mean.
- 41:51Speaker 21: But like what's for you is meant to be for you, right,
- 41:54Speaker 21: you know, So I remind myself of that, and and
- 41:58Speaker 21: then you know, goes away. But like and it's it's
- 42:00Speaker 21: like acting is always going to change mediums and always
- 42:03Speaker 21: going to evolve, And that's the point. If you don't
- 42:04Speaker 21: evolve with it, then you're gonna get left behind.
- 42:06Speaker 5: About I come from social media, so I slew anybody
- 42:10Speaker 5: that comes from social media, you know, I like it.
- 42:13Speaker 2: Just taking down the question was that the question I
- 42:15Speaker 2: was saying social media.
- 42:25Speaker 8: Does it ever make you feel the way where it
- 42:26Speaker 8: feels like people you know, they always say people skip
- 42:28Speaker 8: the line right so that they didn't, you know, take
- 42:31Speaker 8: the acting classes and the acting lessons.
- 42:33Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
- 42:33Speaker 5: I come from the people that didn't take acting classes
- 42:36Speaker 5: that you know, straight from social media.
- 42:38Speaker 2: Like, so I don't.
- 42:38Speaker 4: I don't take it no way. Now, I just took it.
- 42:40Speaker 2: You got to skip the line.
- 42:42Speaker 4: I did skip the line, but then I took it
- 42:43Speaker 4: very very seriously.
- 42:45Speaker 24: That's what I have because a lot of people, yeah,
- 42:49Speaker 24: they're just right, like the comedians, like they can't do
- 42:52Speaker 24: the stage. They can do the the social media stuff
- 42:55Speaker 24: all day post, but when it comes to that stage,
- 42:58Speaker 24: it's totally different. They don't want to get in their room,
- 43:02Speaker 24: you know, go to the open mics and stuff that.
- 43:04Speaker 2: They don't want to do that. They're too good for that,
- 43:06Speaker 2: but you horrible when to come to the stage.
- 43:11Speaker 4: He's got somebody personally in there.
- 43:14Speaker 2: A couple of people.
- 43:16Speaker 24: Now, I'm a stand up comedian, so I just see
- 43:19Speaker 24: the new wave and it is the new wave.
- 43:23Speaker 2: But well, somebody like me.
- 43:24Speaker 24: And who've been doing it for so long, you start
- 43:27Speaker 24: seeing stuff. At first, I was acting like Semi H.
- 43:29Speaker 24: Jackson at first, you know what I'm saying, how he
- 43:31Speaker 24: was with the people taking the acting gigs. I was like,
- 43:33Speaker 24: hold on, now, they ain't even But I had to
- 43:35Speaker 24: sit back and get in yo mo and be like, holdo,
- 43:38Speaker 24: what God God for me is for me? They passed
- 43:40Speaker 24: in my path, you know what I'm saying, So this
- 43:42Speaker 24: is my journey. So I got to stay on my
- 43:45Speaker 24: own germs blessed and and understand why I'm in my
- 43:48Speaker 24: position and be patient, see me, and that's why I'm
- 43:51Speaker 24: here today exactly.
- 43:54Speaker 3: Ken killing each other over f you man, that's gonna
- 43:57Speaker 3: have to be. That's gonna mess up the business in
- 43:58Speaker 3: some way shape or from.
- 44:00Speaker 10: Damn.
- 44:00Speaker 5: I don't even know if I can talk about that.
- 44:02Speaker 5: I don't know, though I can see it happening, Okay,
- 44:05Speaker 5: I can see it happening. Okay, Okay, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 44:07Speaker 5: good suggestion. Yeah yeah. I can't talk with I can't.
- 44:13Speaker 3: I won't get in trouble right well, I mean, as
- 44:16Speaker 3: you why is Drew not allowed to have love? Seems
- 44:18Speaker 3: like you lose every guy that you started off healing.
- 44:21Speaker 21: I think it's because it's the reality of the you know,
- 44:24Speaker 21: the game where right, And I feel like, you know,
- 44:27Speaker 21: with Gordo, you found somebody that you felt like you
- 44:29Speaker 21: could you know who could he could see all of
- 44:32Speaker 21: him and recognize all of him. But at the same time,
- 44:34Speaker 21: it's like it started off with lies, right, like I
- 44:37Speaker 21: killed his pops or we killed his pops. So it's
- 44:39Speaker 21: like if I can't tell you that truth, then we're
- 44:42Speaker 21: already our foundation is shaky anyway, you know. So I think,
- 44:46Speaker 21: you know, God willing going forward, Drew will find some love,
- 44:50Speaker 21: somebody that you know can resonate with him in that
- 44:52Speaker 21: way they justn't have to hide himself from.
- 44:54Speaker 4: But until then, to be about your bread man, it.
- 44:57Speaker 2: Is how's working with Mary?
- 44:59Speaker 21: Beautiful man? And Mary's so cool, She's so chill. We
- 45:04Speaker 21: have so many moments and memories with Mary, and I
- 45:08Speaker 21: think my favorite one is, you know, first day table reading.
- 45:11Speaker 21: You know what, It's funny they don't tell actors of
- 45:13Speaker 21: this lot. It's always like, you know, like, well, you
- 45:15Speaker 21: just get in the space and like, yeah, you know
- 45:16Speaker 21: I belong there and I already already been there, so
- 45:19Speaker 21: you know I gotta act like and whatever whatever.
- 45:21Speaker 4: You know, that tension, shoulder tension comes up, you know
- 45:24Speaker 4: what I mean?
- 45:25Speaker 21: Like no, Like when I got to the table read,
- 45:28Speaker 21: I was like, I've never been here before, and I've
- 45:29Speaker 21: never been face to face with Mary J.
- 45:31Speaker 2: Blige before.
- 45:32Speaker 4: You know what she did, She broke the ice with
- 45:34Speaker 4: a funny ass story.
- 45:36Speaker 9: You know.
- 45:36Speaker 21: She she she brought us in as her kids off
- 45:39Speaker 21: rip and that to me like taught me, like God
- 45:41Speaker 21: will and I get to that place where I can
- 45:43Speaker 21: people look at me in that way that I can
- 45:45Speaker 21: be like, oh no, I'm chill, like you.
- 45:47Speaker 3: Know what I mean, because that really helped me out.
- 45:48Speaker 3: How did she bring your other What was the joke
- 45:50Speaker 3: that brought y'all in? He said, Because she said she
- 45:51Speaker 3: brought you in her kids.
- 45:53Speaker 4: Well, she told us like it was a story.
- 45:54Speaker 21: I told her that, like my dad's from Jamaica, right,
- 45:56Speaker 21: And she was like, oh, I'm never going to dakea again,
- 45:58Speaker 21: Like I'm never bring nobody's Jaica.
- 46:00Speaker 4: It's like it's drama and it's just the way that
- 46:02Speaker 4: she just related to us.
- 46:04Speaker 21: You would think that, like I guess the perspective of
- 46:07Speaker 21: someone of that high stature is that like.
- 46:09Speaker 4: You have to go to them.
- 46:11Speaker 2: But I felt like she came down and came and
- 46:13Speaker 2: gave It's a.
- 46:14Speaker 21: Story that was like we all had us laughing, and
- 46:16Speaker 21: it was like, well, thanks for sharing that, you know
- 46:18Speaker 21: with us, and and really brought us in and so
- 46:21Speaker 21: it just just made it so easy, you know, you know,
- 46:23Speaker 21: we get to do these scenes and she's so generous
- 46:25Speaker 21: as a as a scene partner, and we get to
- 46:28Speaker 21: like really go and play with it. Just so many
- 46:30Speaker 21: fun ideas and just really cares about Monette and says
- 46:33Speaker 21: like listen, man, they is from here.
- 46:36Speaker 4: So she's not going to do it like that. She's
- 46:37Speaker 4: gonna do it like this, and like being her producer,
- 46:40Speaker 4: you know what.
- 46:41Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 46:41Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 46:42Speaker 21: When we did the dinner table not super iconic dinner
- 46:46Speaker 21: table scene, you know, it was her idea to be
- 46:48Speaker 21: like listen, like we gotta get it elevated, right, She said,
- 46:51Speaker 21: we have to elevate this thing because she's not going
- 46:53Speaker 21: to have her daughter talk to her no type of
- 46:55Speaker 21: way and not snatch her across the table and have
- 46:58Speaker 21: it beat this big moment, you know, and it came
- 47:01Speaker 21: alive because of that.
- 47:02Speaker 4: I learned so much as an actor because of that.
- 47:03Speaker 3: So what's gonnappen when y'all gotta hate her because eventually
- 47:06Speaker 3: y'all gonna find out that she's the one who said
- 47:07Speaker 3: Lorenzo up.
- 47:08Speaker 2: I mean, you know what I mean, you know, like
- 47:10Speaker 2: you're gonna have to You're gonna hate it.
- 47:12Speaker 5: Then it comes out this weekend we're gonna see, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 47:15Speaker 5: that's this week Friday.
- 47:17Speaker 4: Yeah, gonna find out all that stuff.
- 47:18Speaker 2: But yeah, are you happy Lorenzo days? You know, let's
- 47:21Speaker 2: say Poppy no more?
- 47:22Speaker 5: I always think I said Poppy like that. I never
- 47:25Speaker 5: I never knew how to say it for real, Like
- 47:27Speaker 5: I didn't. It didn't roll off my tongue like that,
- 47:29Speaker 5: So I kind of eliminated the Poppies out of my vocabulary.
- 47:33Speaker 4: Yeah, did it roll off?
- 47:34Speaker 22: Right?
- 47:34Speaker 2: Yes? You said Poppy said it?
- 47:35Speaker 22: Really?
- 47:36Speaker 2: I think?
- 47:37Speaker 4: I think?
- 47:37Speaker 2: You know.
- 47:39Speaker 4: Bertil Coloone who plays Lorenzo amazing.
- 47:42Speaker 21: I miss him man, sometimes, you know, he's he's a
- 47:45Speaker 21: master class too, you know, and I love him being there.
- 47:49Speaker 21: He just holds it down in such a grounding energy.
- 47:51Speaker 21: So as level I'm like, damn, you know he's gone.
- 47:54Speaker 21: But as Drew, I think Drews also like damn he's gone.
- 47:58Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I agree.

- 48:34Speaker 21: loves watching the show. She has a great heart and
- 48:36Speaker 21: a great empathetic capacity. So she watched watches Drew or
- 48:39Speaker 21: anybody going through it. She's just like, wow, like this
- 48:42Speaker 21: is a every time I watched the show, I'm watching
- 48:44Speaker 21: it being like, I know what we did I know
- 48:46Speaker 21: what's happening. And she's like, Wow, this show like surprises
- 48:49Speaker 21: me every time. It's phenomenal, this is this, and this is.
- 48:51Speaker 2: It hard to watch it with her, it's any love
- 48:53Speaker 2: scene because it's hard to.
- 48:54Speaker 21: Watch with it because she's sometimes around her in the
- 48:57Speaker 21: table reads and so she's like privy and.
- 49:00Speaker 4: Aformation and she's like, oh, so that's what you guys
- 49:02Speaker 4: were talking about.
- 49:03Speaker 2: Oh did you know?
- 49:05Speaker 21: And but in terms of like content stuff, and you know,
- 49:08Speaker 21: it's not it's not hard watching, you know, because she's
- 49:10Speaker 21: also done love scenes.
- 49:12Speaker 2: And how do you feel you see her doing love season,
- 49:15Speaker 2: it's it's take some getting uscles. You got that man
- 49:22Speaker 2: meat on his back? She ye.
- 49:30Speaker 9: Like that.
- 49:32Speaker 2: Jesus. But yeah, but how did that make you feel?
- 49:35Speaker 5: You know?
- 49:35Speaker 21: She just did this film called Perfect Didiction. It just
- 49:37Speaker 21: came out and in it she plays an MM a
- 49:40Speaker 21: fighter and trainer and she had to be with these
- 49:43Speaker 21: six two six three, you know, getting swollen bees for
- 49:46Speaker 21: the role and coming in and you know, she was
- 49:49Speaker 21: love interest to both of them. And I'm having to
- 49:52Speaker 21: sit there being like it's just fine, It's just fine,
- 49:56Speaker 21: you know, you know, but you go back with your chest.
- 49:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm real.
- 50:00Speaker 21: Listen, every time she goes somewhere to work on the job,
- 50:03Speaker 21: but she's like, there's a time apart.
- 50:05Speaker 4: I'm in the gym.
- 50:06Speaker 21: I go crazy in the gym because when you come back,
- 50:08Speaker 21: you don't see me looking different than when you left.
- 50:10Speaker 3: That's right, you know, ask you do you get flacked
- 50:12Speaker 3: from like actual gay actors who feel like that role
- 50:17Speaker 3: should go to game actual gay.
- 50:19Speaker 2: Like you took my role.
- 50:21Speaker 4: That's a good question.
- 50:21Speaker 21: No, Yeah, I get a lot of love, a lot
- 50:24Speaker 21: of like a lot of support comes from other queer actors,
- 50:29Speaker 21: you know, And I get a lot of love because.
- 50:30Speaker 3: I would think that's a ridiculous conversation to have, because
- 50:33Speaker 3: if a gay person plays the great persons because they
- 50:35Speaker 3: got the ROC, they're a good actor.
- 50:36Speaker 2: Right, if you get at what you do, you get
- 50:38Speaker 2: what you do?
- 50:38Speaker 4: Yea, what do you got?
- 50:40Speaker 2: Everybody hitting my damn phone? Was kind of excited. I
- 50:43Speaker 2: got lie, no what he tagged me on something? People
- 50:47Speaker 2: hit me.
- 50:49Speaker 3: The reason I got excited because I was like, oh
- 50:51Speaker 3: it might you know, it might be some brand and
- 50:52Speaker 3: what he was like fighting the post what he said
- 50:54Speaker 3: he posted I want to do a season for now.
- 50:56Speaker 2: Watch party in South Carolina.
- 50:58Speaker 3: But I need to see the god to host it
- 50:59Speaker 3: with me, he said, who in South Carolina would pull
- 51:01Speaker 3: up and got like twenty six hundred comments, and then
- 51:03Speaker 3: people started making actual post about it.
- 51:06Speaker 2: Like this needs to happen, and I'm like, what we're doing,
- 51:10Speaker 2: I'm with it.
- 51:11Speaker 3: You got to find a place to do it, because
- 51:13Speaker 3: you know we used to the house party vie. I mean,
- 51:15Speaker 3: what do you party together?
- 51:15Speaker 2: He was in the house. Yeah, you can't do it
- 51:19Speaker 2: in the house. You can't can't bring all those people
- 51:21Speaker 2: to your house.
- 51:21Speaker 4: I can't do that.
- 51:22Speaker 2: You got to figure out where to do it. I
- 51:23Speaker 2: don't know.
- 51:24Speaker 8: And do we charge people, Yes, that's the hard part
- 51:28Speaker 8: to charge people because if not, it's got to be
- 51:29Speaker 8: limited space. If not, everybody's gonna be there, gonna be
- 51:31Speaker 8: too packed. You want limited space. You want people to
- 51:32Speaker 8: be able to see.
- 51:33Speaker 4: Yeah, so you charge people, but then have like an
- 51:35Speaker 4: open bar.
- 51:36Speaker 8: I don't have an open bar so they can have
- 51:40Speaker 8: a good time and some food. But that way you
- 51:41Speaker 8: have sections so people can actually watch. You don't want
- 51:43Speaker 8: a two pack where you can't enjoy and scream and
- 51:45Speaker 8: yell and all that.
- 51:46Speaker 2: We can do it at the Museum American museum. You
- 51:49Speaker 2: have to bring some TVs in and can if they
- 51:51Speaker 2: got it twenty six right, we got a couple of
- 51:54Speaker 2: more day we can.
- 51:55Speaker 4: We got time though we might you figure it out.
- 51:58Speaker 4: I have fun there, museum.
- 52:02Speaker 2: The pay is not really for you.
- 52:04Speaker 8: It's more to make sure people are gonna come, because
- 52:06Speaker 8: everybody on r ZP I'm coming, and then to be
- 52:08Speaker 8: rained like I ain't coming to the ring.
- 52:09Speaker 3: I mean, but you want people that it's gonna come,
- 52:11Speaker 3: enjoy and have a great time. But then once again,
- 52:13Speaker 3: that's the testament to how big power is in the coach.
- 52:16Speaker 3: I'm telling you show all shows don't get that cultural reverence.
- 52:20Speaker 2: The way.
- 52:22Speaker 5: They let us host post stuff like rappers. I'm like
- 52:24Speaker 5: at a host and I'm like, I ain't got no songs.
- 52:26Speaker 5: I don't know what you'all want to do, so.
- 52:28Speaker 4: I just take pictures. They would give me the mic.
- 52:32Speaker 4: I'm like, I don't know what y'all want me to say,
- 52:33Speaker 4: like I ain't got no no bars or nothing for nobody.
- 52:36Speaker 2: Does it shows lead? Yes? Okay, I was tight. Is
- 52:39Speaker 2: that the true lead?
- 52:40Speaker 5: Because they say that it might not be the true shows? Well, no,
- 52:43Speaker 5: I think I think it was like some like fake
- 52:45Speaker 5: poor quality stuff.
- 52:46Speaker 21: I didn't see it, but man, like it's like like
- 52:49Speaker 21: a rapper, like you always tight when your and then
- 52:52Speaker 21: like who did it?
- 52:53Speaker 4: Like it has to be somebody in your camp? Right,
- 52:55Speaker 4: And why is it only power shows and.
- 52:57Speaker 2: Starts with nobody?
- 52:59Speaker 5: People just kid that much like other things that we
- 53:01Speaker 5: just don't think about, But people care about this.
- 53:04Speaker 4: That's I don't know. I don't know.
- 53:06Speaker 21: I don't know about it, but like I appreciate the
- 53:08Speaker 21: fans who were like stuck it out and like are
- 53:09Speaker 21: gonna watch it again, you know and see it because
- 53:12Speaker 21: they deserve to be seen in the right way.
- 53:16Speaker 3: With this love triangle, Tyreek got going on, right, Who
- 53:18Speaker 3: would y'all rather see him end up with Fie, Lauren
- 53:21Speaker 3: or Diane?
- 53:22Speaker 4: Speaking as Abelle, I'd rather see him with Diana really yeah.
- 53:26Speaker 5: Speaking yeah, speaking speaking as woody, as woody, as woody
- 53:30Speaker 5: Diana as well as really yeah, Drew don't want to
- 53:33Speaker 5: treak nowhere around absolutely, you know.
- 53:37Speaker 21: But as well like this, they make a good pair.
- 53:40Speaker 21: You know, they're both very intelligent, and they both move
- 53:43Speaker 21: around the business really well, and they could actually like
- 53:45Speaker 21: make a great like if they came together like that,
- 53:48Speaker 21: they can make a good, good team, but.
- 53:49Speaker 2: Then the brothers might have to kill him.
- 53:50Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I agree.
- 53:55Speaker 2: Did you feel bad for Saxop when he got killed?
- 53:57Speaker 4: Hell yeah. Shane is so dope man, so in credible.
- 54:00Speaker 4: He's the OG. Well, I think he's been there for
- 54:02Speaker 4: like nine years.
- 54:03Speaker 5: And I think it caught everybody by surprise because I
- 54:06Speaker 5: don't read the whole script until we get to the
- 54:08Speaker 5: table that's just read kind of my section. So when
- 54:10Speaker 5: I heard it for the first time, it definitely was
- 54:12Speaker 5: like one of those emotional emotional things.
- 54:15Speaker 3: Damn, I don't even think about it. I'm sitting it
- 54:17Speaker 3: thinking about it from the character of perspective. The people
- 54:19Speaker 3: that's not going to have no work no more.
- 54:20Speaker 21: Well no, see, that's the thing, Like Shane is such
- 54:22Speaker 21: an amazing actor that he's working, he's working, he's an artist,
- 54:25Speaker 21: like he's an artist with him with ambition and with
- 54:28Speaker 21: with drive, you know. And that's the one thing like
- 54:30Speaker 21: I always say about about actors, about artists specifically, like
- 54:34Speaker 21: you don't we can make whatever we want to make
- 54:36Speaker 21: whenever we want to make it, like now, depending on
- 54:38Speaker 21: how much money you have, and like if you want
- 54:40Speaker 21: to get butts and seasests, another thing, but like art
- 54:43Speaker 21: is there, you can just make it, you know. And
- 54:46Speaker 21: for Shaye, he doesn't have to worry about like lack
- 54:48Speaker 21: and you know, but you know he'll always be a
- 54:50Speaker 21: thriving artist because he's a beautiful actor.
- 54:52Speaker 8: Y'all have a nervous that that you're going to read
- 54:54Speaker 8: a script and it's like what else, things like please
- 54:55Speaker 8: don't give me on, please don't give don't give me on.
- 54:57Speaker 2: Y'all ever feel that way when when y'all pick up
- 54:59Speaker 2: a script that was.
- 55:00Speaker 4: Me season one, two three, his house right now you're
- 55:05Speaker 4: buying like.
- 55:08Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think for the same like the
- 55:12Speaker 5: first season it was like that, but after the first season,
- 55:14Speaker 5: whatever makes sense for the character, the character.
- 55:16Speaker 4: Gotta go, he gotta go. That's how I felt.
- 55:19Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, I just when they when they you know,
- 55:22Speaker 21: when they do decide to if they do decide to
- 55:24Speaker 21: do that with Drew, that like it's a it's like iconic,
- 55:27Speaker 21: like I.
- 55:27Speaker 4: Want to cat to kill you or I don't know
- 55:30Speaker 4: about that. That's heartbreaking, but I got you.
- 55:33Speaker 21: I always want to be like I said, I don't
- 55:35Speaker 21: want to be the black Shawn Bean and like dying
- 55:37Speaker 21: on it. So if it's going to happen like it
- 55:40Speaker 21: needs to be happening, like you know some like dope
- 55:42Speaker 21: slow motion kind of like you know, something dope, something dope.
- 55:45Speaker 21: But I won't speak that out, you know, season six
- 55:47Speaker 21: seven eight, And is that a real.
- 55:48Speaker 3: Beef between the Power Team and the b MF actors?
- 55:51Speaker 3: Like is that real that some social media is between Uh?
- 55:55Speaker 4: I don't think so. I might be that might be
- 55:58Speaker 4: Twitter fingers. Yeah, I hope so, because like we you know,

- 57:15Speaker 2: Things called Donkey of the day. And it really caught
- 57:18Speaker 2: me off guard.

- 57:24Speaker 2: Wow, that's hilarious.
- 57:25Speaker 3: Donkey today goes to a man with seven kids and
- 57:28Speaker 3: seven baby mamas.
- 57:29Speaker 2: Now I try not to pay attention to these people.
- 57:32Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
- 57:33Speaker 3: I see these people telling these outlander stories on YouTube
- 57:36Speaker 3: and TikTok because nowadays folks is saying and doing anything
- 57:39Speaker 3: to get some attention and being that we live in
- 57:41Speaker 3: a world where nobody cares about the truth. If the
- 57:43Speaker 3: lie is more entertaining, folks just be getting online telling
- 57:46Speaker 3: these Ourlandis stories just to get some clicks and subscribers. No,
- 57:50Speaker 3: I don't know if this story is real, but the
- 57:52Speaker 3: idea is. And that's what I like to discuss and
- 57:54Speaker 3: critique the idea, Okay, the idea that digital d heads
- 57:58Speaker 3: like this young man put on the FBI's internet. Now,
- 58:01Speaker 3: as I told you, this man got seven kids and
- 58:03Speaker 3: seven baby mamas, but he don't take care none of them.
- 58:06Speaker 4: Okay, not a one.
- 58:07Speaker 3: Why because he said he told those young ladies from
- 58:10Speaker 3: the beginning that he don't want them. Now, let's go
- 58:12Speaker 3: to the FBI's main source for exhibit a's YouTube to
- 58:16Speaker 3: hear this young man speaker.
- 58:18Speaker 6: Now, for the past few days, I've been going live,
- 58:20Speaker 6: telling my stories, speaking my truth, and a lot of
- 58:22Speaker 6: women having an issue calling me a dead beat because
- 58:25Speaker 6: I tell them I was being irresponsible yet not wearing protection.
- 58:29Speaker 6: But I always tell these women that I got pregnant,
- 58:33Speaker 6: that I do not want to be a father to
- 58:35Speaker 6: these children, and I offer to pay for the abortion.
- 58:39Speaker 6: Majority of times they'll either take the abortion or they'll
- 58:42Speaker 6: take a plan beat. But only these seven have kept
- 58:46Speaker 6: these children. But the crazy thing about it is they
- 58:49Speaker 6: want me to be responsible for some children. I told
- 58:52Speaker 6: them I did not want so for some years now,
- 58:56Speaker 6: some of them been trying to get in contact with me.
- 58:58Speaker 6: ACCESS denied, I don't really know why you're trying to
- 59:01Speaker 6: get in contact with me. I then told you I
- 59:03Speaker 6: did not want them kids. We both was irresponsible about
- 59:07Speaker 6: the decisions we made that night. Yeah, I could have
- 59:10Speaker 6: pulled out, but I didn't, and I ain't care.
- 59:12Speaker 2: To pull out because I'm not the one.
- 59:14Speaker 6: They're gonna have to carry a baby for nine months Jesus,
- 59:17Speaker 6: just the woman. In my opinion, women should be more
- 59:20Speaker 6: careful on who they sleep with.
- 59:22Speaker 2: True, Portia, you just said earlier that women need to
- 59:25Speaker 2: watch you they sleep with. I mean, damn, how savage
- 59:32Speaker 2: this man is. I mean, okay, let's just let's be real.
- 59:39Speaker 22: He's not the first man to tell somebody to take
- 59:41Speaker 22: a plan B. He not the first man to say
- 59:43Speaker 22: he don't want a child. So at the end of
- 59:45Speaker 22: the day, that's why we got child support. You still
- 59:47Speaker 22: got to pay for this child. He need to be
- 59:49Speaker 22: telling this story in jail, right around the lunch table. Jesus,
- 59:53Speaker 22: yes he does, because just because you decided to say
- 59:55Speaker 22: you don't want to pay for the child on mean
- 59:57Speaker 22: that you shouldn't have to.
- 59:58Speaker 3: I feel that proper puem who management is essential for
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: a healthier life. I feel this man is out here
- 1:00:04Speaker 3: passing along sexually transmitted demons, okay, to whoever wants them.
- 1:00:08Speaker 3: And yes, this man is a demon, and they should
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: change that purple smiling face of Moji with horns to
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: his face because this is true demon time. And I
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: really wish this young man would have made this video
- 1:00:17Speaker 3: after baby Mama number one, because if he would have
- 1:00:21Speaker 3: made this video after baby Mama number one, then he
- 1:00:23Speaker 3: would have never gotten the seven baby mamas. And if
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: he did, then every single one of them deserved the
- 1:00:27Speaker 3: baby father they got because when the dad tells.
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: You who they are, believe them. And it does amaze
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: me that this.
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: Young man is putting the responsibility not to get pregnant
- 1:00:36Speaker 3: solely on the woman.
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: Yeah, can I hear more of this guy? Another thing
- 1:00:40Speaker 2: is these just jump offs.
- 1:00:42Speaker 6: He's a type of woman that I ain't even had
- 1:00:44Speaker 6: to do nothing for the bad minimum, but they gave
- 1:00:47Speaker 6: me access to their body.
- 1:00:48Speaker 4: I ain't think I.
- 1:00:49Speaker 6: Want to be a father to a child for one
- 1:00:52Speaker 6: of them. I don't even have no type of love
- 1:00:56Speaker 6: for these women. How do they expect me to love
- 1:00:59Speaker 6: these children? I can offer to a pay for abortion,
- 1:01:02Speaker 6: but at what point can I force a woman to
- 1:01:05Speaker 6: go get an abortion? I cannot a woman say my body,
- 1:01:09Speaker 6: my choice, but I say it's my life, my choice.
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: Before this black man that.
- 1:01:19Speaker 22: He was gonna say, she say her body, her baby,
- 1:01:23Speaker 22: because that's how he.
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: Feels he's done.
- 1:01:25Speaker 3: I wish you could have saw your face when he said,
- 1:01:27Speaker 3: these girls give me their body for the bad minimum?
- 1:01:31Speaker 20: Like?
- 1:01:31Speaker 12: What?
- 1:01:33Speaker 21: What?
- 1:01:35Speaker 22: This guy's disgusting?
- 1:01:37Speaker 12: Like?
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: One thing I can say about Nick Cannon. This man
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: happens we are the subject of multiple babies, and.
- 1:01:44Speaker 22: We got to bring him up diag like y'all didn't
- 1:01:46Speaker 22: think the story was his name at first. Anyway, at
- 1:01:50Speaker 22: least he take care of his kids. He actually wants
- 1:01:53Speaker 22: to populate. I don't know if this man went to school.
- 1:01:56Speaker 22: Does he know what biology is? When you put the
- 1:01:58Speaker 22: vagina and the penis together, they could make a baby.
- 1:02:01Speaker 22: That's how it works.
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: You know what I wish.
- 1:02:04Speaker 3: I wish that along with these babies that he didn't want,
- 1:02:07Speaker 3: he would have got an STD he didn't want. You know,
- 1:02:10Speaker 3: that is very true. But I feel like if he
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: was getting multiple le SDDS, he wouldn't be moving like this.
- 1:02:15Speaker 3: And if the things brothers and sisters don't understand. When
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: y'all out here, you know, raw dog and randoms, okay,
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: doing the DNA dance with any and everybody, you're absolutely
- 1:02:23Speaker 3: increasing your chances of catching GHANISIP for her pages, okay,
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: ganiscept for her page is what irresponsible brothers should get.
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: And I wish it was one way. Ghana her p age, okay,
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: because you know, I don't want I don't want the
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: woman to get it.
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: Because there's one thing.
- 1:02:37Speaker 3: If he was telling these women his intentions before he
- 1:02:39Speaker 3: slept with them, but he's not. He's telling them after
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: the fact, after they have been manipulated to sleep with him,
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: I don't respect it because you're not giving these women
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: that's what the fact though.
- 1:02:49Speaker 4: Oh he didn't know.
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: I thought he said.
- 1:02:52Speaker 9: No.
- 1:02:52Speaker 22: He said, listen, I'm gonna have sex with you, and
- 1:02:54Speaker 22: if you get pregnant, I.
- 1:02:55Speaker 2: Don't want it. I thought he said I would respect
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: it if he did it before.
- 1:03:01Speaker 22: Okay, I'm just saying, man, No, he actually said he'd
- 1:03:05Speaker 22: tell you after you need to take a plan B
- 1:03:08Speaker 22: oh after he done.
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: But either way, he doesn't manipulate. When you feel that drip.
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: When you feel that drip, you know what's gonna go down.
- 1:03:16Speaker 4: Me to go take a plan B.
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: Biggest man with.
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: Seven baby seven baby mamas and seven kids as the
- 1:03:21Speaker 3: big as he.

- 1:03:45Speaker 2: Welcome?
- 1:03:47Speaker 7: Tells who you are?
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: Man, tell me who you are.
- 1:03:49Speaker 12: What you do.
- 1:03:50Speaker 11: My name is Elliot Connie. I am a psychotherapist. I
- 1:03:54Speaker 11: host a podcast. I do lots of things hoping to
- 1:03:57Speaker 11: inspire people to be better versions of themselves.
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: I just got a cup questions, So where did you
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: start and why did you want to be a therapist.
- 1:04:03Speaker 11: I had a real, real tough childhood man, and I
- 1:04:07Speaker 11: grew up anxious and depressed and suicidal and struggling. I
- 1:04:11Speaker 11: didn't know how I was going to pull myself out
- 1:04:12Speaker 11: of it. And I realized that hope is this like
- 1:04:14Speaker 11: really powerful thing. And I felt like if I could
- 1:04:18Speaker 11: figure out how to get myself out of that situation,
- 1:04:20Speaker 11: I wanted to help other people get out of that situation.
- 1:04:22Speaker 11: And I learned very quickly that when your pain has
- 1:04:24Speaker 11: a purpose, it doesn't hurt.
- 1:04:26Speaker 2: We'll playing it. That seed in your head at such
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: a young age to know that that that's what you
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: wanted to.
- 1:04:30Speaker 11: Do God, Man, I don't know.
- 1:04:32Speaker 4: I can't.
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: I can't tell you. I really think God touched my life,
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: to be honest with you, So so when you decided
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: to go for school, you said, a tough childhood.
- 1:04:39Speaker 4: What was tough about your child?
- 1:04:40Speaker 11: And man, my dad, my father was a very very
- 1:04:43Speaker 11: aggressive man and took out his aggression on his kids
- 1:04:46Speaker 11: too often.
- 1:04:47Speaker 4: Military.
- 1:04:48Speaker 2: No, he's just aggressive, you know what.
- 1:04:50Speaker 11: And to be kind to him, it means a black
- 1:04:52Speaker 11: man from a difficult place grew up in Chicago, and
- 1:04:55Speaker 11: I don't think he had the skills to raise a
- 1:04:57Speaker 11: family in a loving, caring way.
- 1:04:58Speaker 3: Do you think that's what made you move they're wanting
- 1:05:00Speaker 3: to be in the mental health feel because you like,
- 1:05:02Speaker 3: there's something wrong here and I want to figure it out.
- 1:05:04Speaker 11: No, you know what, I think it was the opposite.
- 1:05:06Speaker 11: I think it was there's something right here. I want
- 1:05:08Speaker 11: to figure it out because after going through all of that,
- 1:05:10Speaker 11: I found myself in college and I'm like, how come
- 1:05:12Speaker 11: some people go through this stuff and ended up on
- 1:05:14Speaker 11: drugs and doing crazy things? And how did I land
- 1:05:17Speaker 11: in college? And I wanted to share that. I wanted
- 1:05:19Speaker 11: to like, you can do things with your life. And
- 1:05:21Speaker 11: because it wasn't what was wrong, it was what was right.
- 1:05:23Speaker 11: I just figured how did I end up here? And
- 1:05:25Speaker 11: I don't think I'm special, And if I'm not special,
- 1:05:27Speaker 11: I just need to tell people the secret. I just
- 1:05:29Speaker 11: need to let people know what the secret is.
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: When did you start having those conversations? If you even
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: did with your dad?
- 1:05:34Speaker 11: No, man, So my dad we had a violent interact,
- 1:05:37Speaker 11: and we had violent actions throughout my life. When I
- 1:05:40Speaker 11: was nineteen was the last one and I called them
- 1:05:43Speaker 11: and I said, man, like, I can't have this anymore.
- 1:05:45Speaker 11: I need you to follow three rules. If you can
- 1:05:47Speaker 11: follow these three rules, I can get past everything else.
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: So you called your dad.
- 1:05:51Speaker 8: Same when it raised your dad, you just said was
- 1:05:53Speaker 8: aggressive and said, Dad, you need to follow these three rules.
- 1:05:56Speaker 4: Three rules.
- 1:05:56Speaker 11: You can't yell at me, you can't hit me, and
- 1:05:59Speaker 11: you can't curse me. If you can do those three things,
- 1:06:01Speaker 11: I'll figure out the rest. And he said f you,
- 1:06:03Speaker 11: and he hung up the phone. I was like, I
- 1:06:05Speaker 11: bet now, well, we've spoken a couple of times, like
- 1:06:08Speaker 11: he was at my younger brother's graduation. I interacted with him,
- 1:06:10Speaker 11: and he's tried to call me here or there, but no,
- 1:06:13Speaker 11: no meaningful conversation.
- 1:06:13Speaker 23: I feel like in the black community, a lot of
- 1:06:15Speaker 23: us are taught you never speak back to your parents
- 1:06:18Speaker 23: or never you set boundaries with him.
- 1:06:20Speaker 4: Do you think that's appropriate for people to do?
- 1:06:21Speaker 23: First of all, because I think we're told you respect
- 1:06:23Speaker 23: your parents no matter what they say, whatever they want,
- 1:06:25Speaker 23: they could do whatever they want.
- 1:06:26Speaker 4: But yeah, I think that I don't agree with that.
- 1:06:28Speaker 11: Yeah, well, I one hundred percent was raised that way,
- 1:06:30Speaker 11: like you respect your parents, doesn't matter what you do.
- 1:06:32Speaker 11: But I was in such a bad place. I was like,
- 1:06:34Speaker 11: I'm pretty sure that I'm not supposed to die behind
- 1:06:37Speaker 11: that rule. Like I'm pretty sure I'm not supposed to
- 1:06:39Speaker 11: suicide out of here just because I'm not supposed to
- 1:06:42Speaker 11: talk back to my father.
- 1:06:42Speaker 4: So I got back.
- 1:06:43Speaker 8: I got to a place where it was like, I
- 1:06:44Speaker 8: gotta set this boundary or else. I wonder if it's
- 1:06:47Speaker 8: it's the term rules for an adult, you know what
- 1:06:50Speaker 8: I mean, because as an adult, as in a you know,
- 1:06:53Speaker 8: you set the rules now when you're child, because no
- 1:06:55Speaker 8: matter how old you are, you still he still looks
- 1:06:57Speaker 8: at you. I'm sure if as his child growing sure
- 1:06:59Speaker 8: not is the setting of rules. I think that's an
- 1:07:02Speaker 8: interesting point, Like if I said something other than rules.
- 1:07:04Speaker 8: But I think to your point, but if you if
- 1:07:06Speaker 8: you look at your child, you wouldn't take anywhere boundary
- 1:07:09Speaker 8: rule requests. It wouldn't really matter.
- 1:07:11Speaker 11: Like I was raised in that you know, nineteen eighties,
- 1:07:13Speaker 11: nineteen nineties, where black child is to be seen and
- 1:07:16Speaker 11: not heard and all that stuff.
- 1:07:17Speaker 4: I don't.
- 1:07:17Speaker 2: I don't think it would have mattered. But I also
- 1:07:19Speaker 2: agree with you.
- 1:07:19Speaker 11: I think part of the issue in today's world is
- 1:07:22Speaker 11: not respecting authority. I'm talking about not respecting abusers. I'm
- 1:07:26Speaker 11: talking about not allowing abusers to have free rein to
- 1:07:28Speaker 11: your life. I do think we have to learn to
- 1:07:30Speaker 11: respect authority. I think there's a lot of reasons contributing
- 1:07:32Speaker 11: to why kids don't do that.
- 1:07:33Speaker 2: You you you told me the other day that you
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: feel like kids should disrespect their parents.
- 1:07:37Speaker 4: I think parents should expect.
- 1:07:43Speaker 11: In the context of our conversation, you mean, go ahead, Jason,
- 1:07:47Speaker 11: let me let me put that in context. My mother
- 1:07:49Speaker 11: would say, Elle, go do the dishes, and I would
- 1:07:51Speaker 11: be like, why didn't you ask one of them? And
- 1:07:52Speaker 11: that would get me popped. You know, that would get you.
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:07:57Speaker 11: Yeah, But if you're teaching your child to be confident,
- 1:07:59Speaker 11: to be strong, to value their voice, they should ask
- 1:08:02Speaker 11: those kinds of questions and it allows you to parent them.
- 1:08:05Speaker 11: But we shouldn't translate that as disrespect. They're just practicing.
- 1:08:08Speaker 11: That's not disrespect.
- 1:08:09Speaker 2: They're practicing. But that was in our era d disrespect.
- 1:08:13Speaker 2: I would never think to talk back.
- 1:08:15Speaker 3: I would never even think to talk to my parents
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: the way my kids talk to me, as at least said,
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: it's not disrespect, it's just them being like asking valid questions.
- 1:08:23Speaker 8: I don't agree with you with that, La, because, and
- 1:08:25Speaker 8: this is going to sound crazy, here we go. I
- 1:08:27Speaker 8: got six kids, So if I tell one of my
- 1:08:29Speaker 8: kids to do something, I expect it to be done.
- 1:08:31Speaker 8: I'm not going to do it with something that's going
- 1:08:33Speaker 8: to be detrimental to their health, something that's going to
- 1:08:34Speaker 8: hurt them. It's part of what everybody needs to do
- 1:08:38Speaker 8: to be in this household.
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: I agree with the meaning.
- 1:08:40Speaker 8: If if dad's shures or dad's way is to make
- 1:08:42Speaker 8: the money, pay the bills, do this, that and the other,
- 1:08:44Speaker 8: and I ask you to shovel the snow, don't ask
- 1:08:47Speaker 8: me why, don't say, well, why didn't you ask this?
- 1:08:49Speaker 22: This?
- 1:08:49Speaker 2: This? You know, sibling, why did you ask this one? No,
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: because I asked you to do it, but you could
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: explain it to them just the way you explained it.
- 1:08:55Speaker 2: Just listen. You shouldn't have to.
- 1:08:57Speaker 23: This is a rule that applies to everything, because it's
- 1:08:59Speaker 23: one thing. If a kid says, hey, you know, I
- 1:09:01Speaker 23: want to try some finnol, well no, don't do fenn on.
- 1:09:04Speaker 23: Let me explain you why so you invite them to
- 1:09:05Speaker 23: a conversation about it, versus I expect these things to
- 1:09:08Speaker 23: be done as your parents, So go do them. Yes,
- 1:09:10Speaker 23: I mean because when you start inviting the kid into
- 1:09:12Speaker 23: I mean I don't have kids clearly yet, but when
- 1:09:14Speaker 23: you have this perceived negotiation of what you expect as
- 1:09:18Speaker 23: a parent. Then you invite them into a different type
- 1:09:20Speaker 23: of relationship.
- 1:09:21Speaker 11: For sure, and not all things and negotiations. I just
- 1:09:24Speaker 11: think we need to have more conversations. If my child said,
- 1:09:26Speaker 11: don't want to try fentanyl, it is perfectly okay to
- 1:09:28Speaker 11: say no, and let me sit you down and we're
- 1:09:30Speaker 11: going to converse as to why. Like, conversation is powerful.
- 1:09:33Speaker 11: Look at what you guys have done with conversation.
- 1:09:35Speaker 8: All right, we got more with Elliott Connie. When we
- 1:09:37Speaker 8: come back, don't move. It's to Breakfast Club, Good Morning Wanting.
- 1:09:40Speaker 8: Everybody is dj NV, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
- 1:09:43Speaker 8: breakfast Club. We have Jason Lee our co hosts here.
- 1:09:46Speaker 8: We're still kicking it with Elliott Khannie. He has a
- 1:09:48Speaker 8: new book out, and of course he's a therapist.
- 1:09:50Speaker 2: Charlomagne.
- 1:09:51Speaker 3: We always have these conversations about culturally competent therapist. And
- 1:09:54Speaker 3: one of the reasons I like talking to you is
- 1:09:56Speaker 3: because I don't have to explain a Twitter beef.
- 1:10:00Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
- 1:10:01Speaker 3: I don't have to explain what somebody said about me
- 1:10:05Speaker 3: on a blog. You see it, you know it already,
- 1:10:08Speaker 3: like you know other therapists I've had, You've had to
- 1:10:10Speaker 3: explain that to them. That takes a lot of time
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: out of a session. Yeah, but that goes back to representation.
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: I hope all of you guys take that very very
- 1:10:19Speaker 3: especially you, Like there are people watching you that you're
- 1:10:21Speaker 3: never gonna meet, never gonna see in twenty years from now.
- 1:10:24Speaker 3: They're still alive, Like forget. They may be walking in
- 1:10:28Speaker 3: your footsteps and have their own media company, but they're
- 1:10:31Speaker 3: still alive because representation matters. And there's a frustration. I
- 1:10:35Speaker 3: was talking to somebody about this this weekend. There's a
- 1:10:37Speaker 3: frustration associated with being black because we have to explain
- 1:10:40Speaker 3: things to people. And I was telling on somebody the
- 1:10:42Speaker 3: other day this and I was furious, I'm tired of
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: explaining this. But I was talking to this person about
- 1:10:48Speaker 3: racial trauma. And this is a this is a clinician.
- 1:10:51Speaker 11: This is a professional clinician at a professional clinician event,
- 1:10:55Speaker 11: and somebody gave a lecture about racial trauma. And this
- 1:10:58Speaker 11: person came up to me and said, what do you
- 1:10:59Speaker 11: think of the election? I said, I I thought it
- 1:11:01Speaker 11: was good. That person explained a lot of things that
- 1:11:04Speaker 11: y'all need to hear. And she said, well, i'd liked
- 1:11:05Speaker 11: it too, but I was really frustrated because he said
- 1:11:09Speaker 11: that black people and particularly men, experienced trauma every day.
- 1:11:12Speaker 4: That can't be true.
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: He said, it's absolutely true.
- 1:11:15Speaker 11: Eh, I don't know a black person, particularly black men,
- 1:11:18Speaker 11: that don't experience trauma every day.
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: And she said, how could that be? I said, let
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: me explain it to you.
- 1:11:23Speaker 11: If I locked you in your bedroom and I took
- 1:11:26Speaker 11: the most venomous snake and I threw it in the
- 1:11:28Speaker 11: bedroom with you, and I locked that door and I
- 1:11:30Speaker 11: close it, I don't let you out for a week.
- 1:11:32Speaker 11: You didn't just experience trauma on the days you got bit.
- 1:11:36Speaker 11: You experienced trauma every second of every day because you
- 1:11:40Speaker 11: knew there was a venomous snake around.
- 1:11:41Speaker 4: And she was like, oh, I get it now.
- 1:11:43Speaker 11: I'm tired of explaining that to y'all. I don't want
- 1:11:46Speaker 11: to explain blackness twenty four hours of my day, and
- 1:11:49Speaker 11: I want to explain to everybody what we mean. There's
- 1:11:52Speaker 11: a context for living this life that you and I
- 1:11:55Speaker 11: just get. And I think we need more black therapists.
- 1:11:58Speaker 11: A lot of people go to therapists and first time
- 1:12:00Speaker 11: they go, they don't have a favorable time and they
- 1:12:03Speaker 11: feel like that, yeah, and they feel like because of that,
- 1:12:07Speaker 11: they don't want to go back. I just want to
- 1:12:08Speaker 11: talk about that people are looking for therapists because sometimes
- 1:12:12Speaker 11: you find the wrong person, it's not the right fit,
- 1:12:14Speaker 11: and people are scared to, you know, to go back.
- 1:12:16Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:12:16Speaker 11: I tell people all the time, like, you don't go
- 1:12:18Speaker 11: to you know, a restaurant and have a bad experience
- 1:12:22Speaker 11: and then just boycott food, right, You don't do that,
- 1:12:26Speaker 11: You find another restaurant, right. And I think I think
- 1:12:29Speaker 11: we need to recognize therapy is the same. If I
- 1:12:31Speaker 11: go to see a therapist and it doesn't work, doesn't
- 1:12:33Speaker 11: mean therapy didn't work, just mean that's particular therapists didn't work.
- 1:12:37Speaker 11: And we need to be just as variant in our
- 1:12:39Speaker 11: attempts to find a good therapist as we are in
- 1:12:41Speaker 11: our attempts to find good food.
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: I want to ask too, like, you know, we've seen
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: so many people discussing mental health nowadays. Number one, do
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: you think it has been a rise of black people
- 1:12:51Speaker 3: going to therapy? And what do you think folks still
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: get wrong about mental health?
- 1:12:56Speaker 11: So to answer the first question, yeah, I think we
- 1:12:57Speaker 11: do have more black people going to therapy, it's it's
- 1:12:59Speaker 11: the time Woods effect, right, Like we're all old enough
- 1:13:02Speaker 11: to remember when Tiger Woods took over golf, Black people
- 1:13:04Speaker 11: started going to play golf and they weren't playing golf
- 1:13:07Speaker 11: before that. Serena Williams and Venus Williams similar thing, like
- 1:13:10Speaker 11: young black girls go to tennis courts to play tennis
- 1:13:13Speaker 11: because representation matters. So the fact that you guys, probably
- 1:13:16Speaker 11: more than any other platform in the world, platforms talk
- 1:13:20Speaker 11: about black mental health. More Black people are going to
- 1:13:24Speaker 11: therapy because they heard Charlemagne suggested someone. They heard it,
- 1:13:28Speaker 11: so now they're like, man, maybe I can go do this.
- 1:13:30Speaker 11: And it's the exact same thing that happened in tennis.
- 1:13:32Speaker 11: It's the exact same thing that happens in golf. And
- 1:13:34Speaker 11: what I think we get wrong more than anything else,
- 1:13:36Speaker 11: is we think the therapist is supposed to solve our problems,
- 1:13:40Speaker 11: and that's actually not true. Like life is a turbulent flight.
- 1:13:44Speaker 11: The therapist is supposed to make you a better pilot.
- 1:13:46Speaker 11: I just got one last question. I know, I know,
- 1:13:48Speaker 11: we're wrapping up.
- 1:13:49Speaker 8: Charlemagne always talks about being anxious, and people always talk
- 1:13:52Speaker 8: about anxiety, But I don't look at anxiety as a
- 1:13:55Speaker 8: bad thing, it's how you control it, right. I have
- 1:13:58Speaker 8: six kids, Charlamagne has four. When they go out until
- 1:14:01Speaker 8: even to this day, when I go out as a
- 1:14:03Speaker 8: grown ass man, my mom and dad still have anxiety
- 1:14:07Speaker 8: about me going out because they're scared, right, But they're
- 1:14:09Speaker 8: not scared to a point where they're you know, listening right, right,
- 1:14:12Speaker 8: But it's not to the point where they're.
- 1:14:13Speaker 2: Calling me at six in the morning, yeah are you doing?
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: But they're ani same thing with my kids. That's never
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: gonna change.
- 1:14:18Speaker 11: No, that's healthy anxious, Like anxiety is like everything else,
- 1:14:21Speaker 11: is a degree of healthiness to it. And then some
- 1:14:23Speaker 11: people go way beyond the spectrum to where and think
- 1:14:26Speaker 11: about it in this term, when something is interrupting your
- 1:14:29Speaker 11: ability to live a normal daily life, that's when it
- 1:14:31Speaker 11: becomes a problem. So that anxiety like my daughter's at NYU.
- 1:14:35Speaker 11: She just called me and told me she's going to
- 1:14:37Speaker 11: a party. I'm gonna have a hard time relaxing tonight
- 1:14:39Speaker 11: because I'm something could happen, Like that's that's normal. But
- 1:14:42Speaker 11: if you have anxiety where like my daughter's at n
- 1:14:45Speaker 11: YU and I can't eat, I can't sleep, like that's
- 1:14:49Speaker 11: that's the problem. And I think we have to learn
- 1:14:51Speaker 11: how to manage that and learn how to manage.
- 1:14:53Speaker 5: People hear anxiety. They're automatically thing negative, right, they always
- 1:14:56Speaker 5: think bad. There is healthy anxiety, like you love that
- 1:14:58Speaker 5: daughter or all your children that not in phecifically because
- 1:15:01Speaker 5: we're talking about you don't want anything bad to happen
- 1:15:04Speaker 5: to her. So when she tells you, I've done this
- 1:15:06Speaker 5: thing that puts me at risk, even mild risk, I'm
- 1:15:09Speaker 5: gonna be worried about that. The only things that will
- 1:15:11Speaker 5: happen are things that God intended for you to experience.
- 1:15:14Speaker 5: And so you can't have faith and anxiety because anxiety
- 1:15:19Speaker 5: is fear based. So if I believe very strongly like
- 1:15:22Speaker 5: God's got me, that means if I'm going through something hard,
- 1:15:24Speaker 5: I'm going through that hard thing for a reason. So
- 1:15:26Speaker 5: there's no reason to I just have to trust everything.
- 1:15:31Speaker 5: And that's what I would say with the end by
- 1:15:32Speaker 5: saying like, if you can figure out a way to
- 1:15:34Speaker 5: trust every experience, you're going through all of these things
- 1:15:37Speaker 5: for a reason, and be grateful for everything, like everything
- 1:15:42Speaker 5: you are untouchable emotionally, like you are just an indestructible force.
- 1:15:47Speaker 5: When you're just grateful for everything.
- 1:15:49Speaker 11: Not just grateful for the good things, not just grateful
- 1:15:51Speaker 11: for the profound thing, but I mean like grateful for
- 1:15:53Speaker 11: all of it.
- 1:15:55Speaker 8: Life is different, all right, Well, Elliot Connie, ladies and gentlemen,

- 1:17:38Speaker 3: desk absolutely appreciate that's right.
- 1:17:40Speaker 2: Thank you so much, Chris. All right now, Charlamagne, what's
- 1:17:42Speaker 2: your positive note?
- 1:17:43Speaker 3: I had a great therapy session yesterday and I told
- 1:17:45Speaker 3: you all some things that we talked about in therapy earlier,
- 1:17:48Speaker 3: just about operating from a position of joy, right people.
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: You know, nothing makes people more jealous and envious to
- 1:17:54Speaker 3: you than seeing you happy. But there's another thing I
- 1:17:56Speaker 3: learned in therapy, and that's it's actually a quote from
- 1:17:59Speaker 3: Wayne and I love this quote because too many people
- 1:18:04Speaker 3: don't know where to go because they're too focusing on what.
- 1:18:07Speaker 3: They're too busy focusing on what was so. Wayne Gretsky
- 1:18:10Speaker 3: once had a quote where he said, I skate to
- 1:18:13Speaker 3: where the puck is going to be, not where it
- 1:18:17Speaker 3: has been.
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: I skate to where the puck is going to be,
- 1:18:22Speaker 2: not where it has been. Y'all have a great day.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: Breakfast club. Is y'alla finish or y'all done.
