• 0:04
  Speaker 3: First off, we want to make sure that everybody's aware
• 0:06
  Speaker 3: this is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Make sure that you take care of yourself so that
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: you can take care of others.
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: Make sure that you are exercising and eating right and
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: getting regular checkups.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Making sure you're around for the long fight. Today is
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: the day.
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: Today is the release of Charlie's Boys. So I've been
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: doing a lot of press. I'm excited about it.
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: Congratulations.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Charlie's Boys is available right now. Also, if you're going
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: to be in Atlanta, Georgia, I'm going to be at
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: a symphony hall. And then the next day at 11
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: is at the Close Auditorium.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Theater action. Close Theater. Oh, Close Auditorium Theater. Don't go
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: to the auditorium. That is closed. But the Close Theater
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: is where we'll be at. Yeah. I think this DaVinci
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Kid is woof.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 0:52
  Speaker 5: I was going to talk about that in Trending for
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: sure because it is definitely Trending.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to give it a lot, but what's
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: French for f * * * ed up?
• 0:59
  Speaker 6: No!
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: What is French?
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: I just think a lot of people these days try
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: to be too slick by half and say a lot
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: of things that are provocative and edgy.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: And sometimes you can do things.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: And you know what? Ultimately, if you believe what you believe,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: you should stand on it.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: I don't know... I'm in no position to tell somebody
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: they shouldn't have said what they said.
• 1:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Not at all. Yeah.
• 1:27
  Speaker 6: You got to have the cachet to be able to
• 1:28
  Speaker 6: do it. Like this kid is young. He's just getting
• 1:30
  Speaker 6: his career good and started. Like Shaq can survive that.
• 1:33
  Speaker 6: You know, he can say something wild.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think what I take umbrage with is there
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: seems to be a constant assault on the intellect side
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: of black people here, by other black people.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: That's why I don't like that H.O. Who was the
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: kid on the Fox News? The H.O. I don't like
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: him at all.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: The same thing that he said about us, Dominicans say
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: about Haitians. The same thing he said about us. And
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't like it. I didn't like it when they
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: said Haitians eat dogs. I didn't like it when they
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: were disrespectful to them. I didn't like when, and have
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: said so out loud. I most certainly don't like it
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: when he says stuff about us. And you made your
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: living pretending to be us. And you talk about in
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: the ninth grade, eighth grade, you were taking yourself in Brooklyn.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: You were in America.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: And I hate when all these people come here and they, well,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: you know, we were smarter than you.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: If you're so smart and you work so hard, see
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: how that work in Haiti.
• 2:38
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: If all the smart people that denigrated this country were there,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: then maybe it'd be a different country. But Haiti has
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: this problem.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: It's violent.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: So there's a kid that was going to have to
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: be sent back to Haiti, and he jumped in front
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: of a bus.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: That happened.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: So I think we have to be careful, especially when
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: you made your living sounding like us and acting like us.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: And now you resorted to sounding and acting like them.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: That's a lot.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Happy birthday to Lamond Rucker.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Why did I get married? Happy birthday to Brownie James.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: Happy birthday to Rebecca Lobo. Happy birthday to Trevor Lawrence.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: He having a hell of a run right now, playing
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: a little ball.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Happy birthday to Karima Westwood.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Grace on All-American.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Boy, she won't talk to him no more. Happy birthday
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: to Chris Matthews. Happy birthday to Jonathan Kaminga. Happy birthday
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: to Tony Dungy, the first African-American head coach.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: To win a Super Bowl. That seems, wow, wow.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Happy birthday possibly, of course, to Derry Heller, the NWA manager,
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: and happy birthday to Ricky.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Haddon, the boxer.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: It's such a young kid to meet his untimely demise.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: We got a great show lined up for you. Jasmine's
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: going to tell us what's trending. We got a little

• 4:17
  Speaker 3: to OneVoiceCruise.com for all of the details. Jazz man, tell
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: us what's trending.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: So you guys said we weren't going to talk about
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: it quite a bit, but you did. But we're still
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: going to talk about it anyway and get to the weeds.
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: And that is regarding Da Vinci and all of the
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: uproar on social media about him. Not only talking about
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: how in this country, how we're very lazy and how,
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: you know, our work ethic is not the same as
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: what he is accustomed to. But then coming back and
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: making these comments about slavery, they are letting.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: Him have it. He is being eaten up now, of course.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: You know, his response, you know, because all of this
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: took place, by the way, on Cam Newton's podcast, which
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: if you know, you know, when you go on Cam
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: Newton's podcast, he's going to edit it for clicks because
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: that's what they do.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: Just like Shannon Sharp.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Not on our podcast.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: We don't.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: No, of course not.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: What you say is what you say.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Because we don't have guests. You hear something.
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: But the fact that he minimizes slavery and talks about
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: how Americans need to move on and all of these things.
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: And now that he realizes how much hot water he's in,
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: he's trying to backpedal a little bit.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: You know what's so funny about when people tell us
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: to move on from slavery? That would be nice. So
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: you go first.
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: You can't tell me to move on from slavery when
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: you're naming your bases after Confederate generals.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Yikes.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: You can't tell me to move on from slavery when
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: you're enacting some of the very practices that were around.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: During Jim Crow.
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: Mm-hmm.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: So it isn't that I need to move on from slavery.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Even the very situation you have right now. You can't
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: tell me to move on from slavery when you attack
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: the Fourth Amendment, which gives people the right to be here. So.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: It isn't we need to move on from slavery.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: It's this country won't.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: This country and slavery, it's like you never had somebody
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: that had, like there's been people who got shot. And
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: to remove the bullet would actually do more harm than
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: to let it stay. That is racism in this country.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: And it's insulting for a man who had to be.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: It is slavery.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: The remnants of slavery is why you get to be
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: an American citizen.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: That's why slavery did that.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: You get to come from Haiti, and because you were
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: born here, you're an American citizen.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Because of the 14th Amendment.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: As a lot of people from China, a lot of
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: people from India, a lot of people from Germany, a
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: lot of people from Hungary, a lot of those people
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: that are here that were born here were the recipients
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: of the ancestors of slavery. So do you want to
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: start talking about slavery to the extent that it makes
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: you leave this country?
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah. And the other thing is, I find it so
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: interesting that you could talk so badly about a country
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: that your parents left theirs to come here. They could
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: have gone anywhere, but they came here. So in my mind,
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: I'm like, OK, well, then you want to talk about
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: the work ethic and you want to talk about all
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: of these things. I'm like, wow, that's a lot.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: It's a lot.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: If y'all just work so hard and so smart, fix Haiti.
• 6:55
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Fix that.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: How about that?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: If you possess the wherewithal to tell us all of
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: our problems here and you all are so bright and
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: work so hard and how lazy we are, then Haiti
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: has an influx of people that are wasting their energy
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: over here.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: They should go back there and fix Haiti. Yep.
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: 100%.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: And you have the temerity to say– Everything that is
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: wrong with us in our inner cities and the thing
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: you ascribe to us is wrong for the entire nation
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: of Haiti, except and for the exact same reason. It
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: is because of Anglo, because of European American wanting Haiti
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: to not do well because, you know, because they didn't
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: want to do well, just like they don't want black
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: people to do well.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Why did they attack?
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: The American education system got attacked in 1970s and it
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: was on purpose.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: So I can't stand that.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: The only thing that somebody that was born somewhere else
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: and get to stay here for the only thing you
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: should ever say about black people or two black people
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: is thank you.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: And finally, to end the experience, thank you.
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: I want to say thank you to the incredible Freddie
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: Jackson that we lost.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: Thank you for the countless songs and all the things.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: So sad.
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: You know, he will definitely be missed. We're losing those
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: that we grew up with. There is an old adage,
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: an old phrase. I'm sure that many of you are
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: familiar with it. The expression a grand jury will indict
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: a ham sandwich. I'm sure you've all heard that bantered
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: around a bit.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: It comes from the fact that the district attorney generally
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: has so much latitude with the grand jury. that they
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: can get a grand jury to indict for almost anything.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, they have about a 99%
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: literacy rate. Pregnancy tests aren't that, like DNA tests aren't
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: that effective. Ivory soap isn't that effective. They have around 99%
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: of the time. As a matter of fact, we had
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: a grand jury that this year indicted somebody because a
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: pool was green.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: But we don't have a.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: Grand jury that indicts someone because a young man is
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: found floating in a body of water. A grand jury
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: will indict a ham sandwich cake, indict a homestead. We
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: have watched anyone, any number of Trump's political opponents and
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: enemies be indicted for frivolous reasons. We watched them attack
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: members of the press, former FBI agents, former elected officials,
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: because when he wants somebody indicted, they are despite little
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: to no evidence. How many of them have been thrown
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: out because they're so frivolous? Here we have a situation
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: where a young man was found floating face down in
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: a pool of water with dubious circumstances. Even the autopsy
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: report can't say what the cause of death was. And
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: you'll have any number of right-wing social media influencers trying
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: to tell you about dry drowning. Now, you can drown
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: your sorrows. You can drown in red tape. You can
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: drown your fears.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Away.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: You can drown in debt. It's very hard to drown
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: face down in the body of water. And that is
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: how far people are going to explain this. And the
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: bottom line is, if you can indict somebody for scraping
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: a pool with your soul with strange credulity, you can't
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: indict someone For having a young man come up dead
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: in dubious circumstances, that is about desire.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: And at any other.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Point in this nation's history, even if it were an
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: administration that necessarily wasn't even fond of black people, at
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: any other point, the feds would be called in. As
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: a matter of fact, Nolan Wells, he met his end
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: on federal land. 94%, the feds own 94% of that island.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: A private owner owns six. So it happened on federal land.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: There is the feds will be calling in to investigate
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: this rash of black people that are being hung all
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: over the country. I said this before and I don't
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: think people quite got what it was. I said that
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: there is a reason if you live in a black
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: blue state or a blue city or if you're black,
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: brown or yellow, you really do not have any federal
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: representation at all.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: You are on your own. No one would.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, no one from this administration
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: has mentioned it.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: At all, the grass of dead people.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: Nobody has mentioned at all what happened to Nolan Wales,
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: no elected official of any note. Nobody from the FBI,
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: nobody from the Trump administration, barely somebody from governance, not
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: even a senator.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: They've stayed away from it. Any other point, the feds
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: would be called in.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: But there is a reason at the beginning of this term,
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: they got rid of the Southern Poverty Law Center.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Remember that?
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: They indicted them for being what they called racist.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: There's a reason why the Civil Rights Division of the
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Trump administration is all white. There is a reason why
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: this district attorney and others do not feel a sense
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: of urgency because they know no one is going to
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: hold them to account. But they also should know this,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: that we are not going to look the other way.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: That one day there will be another administration. And murder
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: does not have a statute of limitations. This was about desire.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: This was about a district attorney who wanted to. This
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: is about the feds who want to. So the next
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: time somebody tells you that your vote doesn't make a
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: difference and all these administrations are the same, do you
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: actually believe that an administration headed by Kamala Harris would
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: be doing nothing right now, saying nothing right now? This
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: is about desire. This is about wanting to. This is
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: about somebody wanting to get to the bottom of it.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: And somebody in authority. And the reason they don't, the
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: reason nothing's happening, because they don't want to.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: That's a little note from the GED section. She's jazz.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: She's smart.
• 12:52
  Speaker 7: It's the Jazzy Report on the D.L.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Hughley Show.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: And now it's time for the Jazzy Report.
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: Latino voters that helped propel Donald Trump back to the
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: White House are now turning on him. According to a
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: new poll, a shift that gives Dems a major opportunity.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: to capitalize in a 2026 election that could hinge on
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: states and districts with sizable Latino populations. Latino voters are
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: wracked by major concerns about high prices and, of course,
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: Trump's approach to immigration.
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: So all of the redrawing those district lines kind of
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: blew up in their face, huh?
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: You want to stay? Vote this way.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: Don't vote for them. And we warned them.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: We warned everybody.
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: Nobody listened. Nobody listened.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: They never do.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: They never do. What is it?
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: A hard head makes a soft Well, just one pint

• 14:52
  Speaker 7: you and your husband and ask y'all, could they come
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: and stay at the house with y'all? they paid $ 3, 700
• 14:59
  Speaker 7: a month in rent and they've been doing this for
• 15:01
  Speaker 7: the last three years, but now they need a little
• 15:03
  Speaker 7: break and they needed to downsize in their payment. So
• 15:06
  Speaker 7: they're going to be looking for something different. So they
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: didn't want to renew their lease. So you and your
• 15:10
  Speaker 7: husband talked about it and y'all came back and said,
• 15:12
