• 1:12
  Speaker 4: Of course, of course, man Steven and it's funny brother.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: But you know, he's and I like him on some things,
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: but he had been doll I like him talking about sports,
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: but you know, he just he was.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: He's definitely on some different kind of paths.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: And half of the things that happened to Stephen already
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: has takes sports takes were a bit controversial to people,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: but that was in line of what he did. But
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: this whole foray into the political realm where he's obviously
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: decided to cosplay conservative and to cosplay white nationalist talking
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: points like it's almost he deliberately takes the app I think,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: you know, like in radio, one of the things they
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: do is if i'm that we don't we avoid doing
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: because I think but that was.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Something they used to push us to do. If I
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: take this side, you take that side, right?
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: You know, I think that he's decided to decide he's
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: going to take is the side of.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: The you know, is the side of the conservative right.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Well, I can tell you what this is his response,
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: he said, this is the epitome of Christmas arriving early.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: The NABJ wants to call folks out. Fine, you had
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: your turn, Now mine is coming, and make no mistake,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: I'm coming, he says. Remember you asked for it. I've
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: shut my mouth for years. Now y'all started something.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: When did he shut his mouth for years?
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I'm real. When did that happen?
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Maybe he's speaking specifically about coming for the NABJ.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: He shut his mouth against them. Well, I don't know.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Hey, listen, I can't say why it happened or what happened.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but I do know that for the
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: last few years, i'd say he has said things that
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: we personally on this show have responded to.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Yep, the question we're asking.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: The NABG of course, gave stephen A that the thumbs
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: down the ward. Do you think it was appropriate? Was
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: gonna write their phones?
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: I thought they should have given him the cute booty
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: of It, of the of the Year of the week.
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: They should have getting the jingle ward. They should give
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: him the clown Award. Yeah, I agree with peve A
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: Smith's man. I'll tell you what he is a detriminate
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: to the black community. He's a sellout. He'll do anything
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: for the bag. That's what Steve A. Smith do When
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: when Maggie justt do with him, they gonna disguarded him.
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: He's gonna get his black call, wake up call one
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: d day. They gonna get it just amount of time.
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: I believe that.
• 3:31
  Speaker 7: Yet, this award for Steven Asmith is very much deserved.
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: He should get it. He should have got it before now.
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: But I'm glad somebody recognized how out of hand, excessive
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: and abusive he is with the way that he talks
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: about certain folks that are not.
• 3:50
  Speaker 7: Black people, or the folks that are black rather.
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: So it's just like, I'm glad somebody's recognizing it for
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: what it truly is and not trying to sugarcoat how
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: harmful his behavior is. A lot of times people like
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: to say words don't mean nothing, but a person like
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: him who has the platform that he has, is quite dangerous.
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: It's bad enough we got a president that's like that.
• 4:18
  Speaker 6: Why he got to be a black person? That adds
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: on to that kind of idea that it's okay to
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: be this reckless with your language.
• 4:26
  Speaker 8: Steeve Smith, one of the worst people I've ever met.
• 4:28
  Speaker 8: I mean I listened to speak. You better believe that
• 4:32
  Speaker 8: he deserved that award. He deserves the super Boody of
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: ward every other ward that's negative that they can give
• 4:38
  Speaker 8: him now. After listening to him, you know, I thought
• 4:41
  Speaker 8: in again and he was a freak good person, you know,
• 4:42
  Speaker 8: but after listening to him and how he did the
• 4:44
  Speaker 8: great the Democrats and uphold Trump and uh, those Republicans
• 4:49
  Speaker 8: don't have nothing but Stephen Smith, not Stephen A. That's
• 4:54
  Speaker 8: what he likes to be called, Stephen Smith. That's what
• 4:56
  Speaker 8: I call it, Stephen Smith. I think, yes, Stephen Ah
• 5:00
  Speaker 8: if it does deserve a.
• 5:01
  Speaker 7: Thumb down from the black jonalis.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: In fact, I wish to trade him for getry on.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: We would do a lot better.
• 5:09
  Speaker 7: Thank you, Anne, continue the great work you guys to do.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: The question we're asking ladies and gentlemen, is Steven A.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Smith, the NABG National Jay excuse me, the National Socialism
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: like journalist gave him the thumbs down award? Do you
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: think it was warned he was going right to the folks.
• 5:26
  Speaker 7: Yeah, he should have a thumbs down. Problem is his
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: mother ain't around him more to slap him around when
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: he says something he shouldn't and that's that's what really
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: should happen to him. He has a daughter, I'm sure
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: he has aunts and all of them are women. And
• 5:40
  Speaker 7: for him to say anything bad about Kamala Iris, I'm
• 5:42
  Speaker 7: more than sure if they were around, they would pop
• 5:45
  Speaker 7: them in the head.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: Yes, I think he deserves that award.
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: Put him in the same category with clans thumbs.
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: He's uh, straight, coon, coon knowledgey, both of us
