- 1:29Speaker 1: when I do, I'm taking y'all with me. Now, let's
- 1:33Speaker 1: get on into the latest. So top of news this
- 1:36Speaker 1: morning University of Michigan former football coach Sharon Moore. So, okay,
- 1:42Speaker 1: just a little rewind because we haven't talked about this
- 1:44Speaker 1: here on the podcast yet. So Sharon Moore was the
- 1:47Speaker 1: you know, one of the big the big dog coaches
- 1:50Speaker 1: over at the University of Michigan, and he was randomly,
- 1:54Speaker 1: like all of a sudden, just fired a few days ago.
- 1:57Speaker 1: And when he was fired, there was a statement that
- 1:59Speaker 1: was released by the university that said that they fired
- 2:01Speaker 1: him because they had credible evidence that he was having
- 2:04Speaker 1: an inappropriate relationship with the staffer, which violated his contract
- 2:08Speaker 1: and university policy. Right. So, after this happens, he is
- 2:12Speaker 1: then arrested and being investigated at that point for an
- 2:15Speaker 1: alleged assault. There were not much details at the time
- 2:18Speaker 1: besides the arrest, and then there were some more details
- 2:22Speaker 1: that came. TMZ got a nine one one audio call.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Let's take a listen to that non on one audio
- 2:27Speaker 1: call that explains a bit more about the arrest.
- 2:30Speaker 3: Three for domestic projective caller for it is in the
- 2:39Speaker 3: altiplication and how it's attack here sixpense stocking here for
- 2:43Speaker 3: months for the patilion's domestic they call that one's wife
- 2:51Speaker 3: and niverse saying that these effectives shout sight.
- 2:54Speaker 2: Of perfect I think it's job today through Phottle you
- 3:00Speaker 2: want that with certain knife and just defin why there's
- 3:03Speaker 2: a UM detective that's going to be making a location
- 3:06Speaker 2: as well.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Now in that audio call, you were hearing the dispatch
- 3:10Speaker 1: talk about the fact that there is a woman in
- 3:12Speaker 1: her home who has called nine one one that is
- 3:16Speaker 1: alleging that a coach showed up in her home is
- 3:20Speaker 1: assaulting her and it's threatening to take his life, like
- 3:23Speaker 1: he may be suicidal because he lost a job and
- 3:26Speaker 1: she's trying to get help to just you know, be okay.
- 3:30Speaker 1: At the time, based on you know, how this call
- 3:32Speaker 1: is set up. Until this point that the No One
- 3:36Speaker 1: Want audio was released, there had not been any comment
- 3:38Speaker 1: from Sharanmor's team whatsoever. There have begun to be unverified
- 3:44Speaker 1: reports that were not fully unverified, some of them unverified,
- 3:49Speaker 1: and I'll explain why I'm saying that. So, at the
- 3:51Speaker 1: time that the No Want audio released and there was
- 3:53Speaker 1: a bit more details about his arrest or what led
- 3:56Speaker 1: up to the arrest and the allegations that led up
- 3:59Speaker 1: to the arrest, reports have began circulating again at the
- 4:03Speaker 1: time unverified that this relationship with the staffer involved the
- 4:09Speaker 1: person that who's home he had went to, right, but
- 4:12Speaker 1: again this was not verified. Today, as I'm speaking to
- 4:15Speaker 1: you guys, he has been in police custody for two days.
- 4:19Speaker 1: As I'm speaking to you guys, he has been in
- 4:21Speaker 1: police custody because I don't have any updates that he's
- 4:24Speaker 1: actually posted the bond that he was given. He's been
- 4:27Speaker 1: in police custody for three days. So he was arrested
- 4:29Speaker 1: Wednesday after police allege or prosecutors alleged he went to
- 4:33Speaker 1: this woman's home. Thursday, he was still in police custody.
- 4:36Speaker 1: He hadn't seen the judge. There have been no charges
- 4:39Speaker 1: really anything solid release from the police or anybody saying
- 4:45Speaker 1: what happened. All that was being released to media was
- 4:48Speaker 1: that they were investigating an assault. Now you get to
- 4:51Speaker 1: day three and he finally sees a judge, and from there,
- 4:56Speaker 1: what the government is alleging is that he's he's now
- 5:00Speaker 1: facing three criminal charges. They're alleging home invasion at a
- 5:03Speaker 1: third degree fellony level, stalking in a domestic relationship, and
- 5:07Speaker 1: breaking and entering, which are misdemeanor charges. His bond is
- 5:12Speaker 1: set at twenty five thousand dollars, and prosecutors then gave
- 5:15Speaker 1: a rundown of what the actions that they alleged happened
- 5:19Speaker 1: based on what the woman in the home, and pay
- 5:22Speaker 1: attention to the fact that they said that this was
- 5:24Speaker 1: a domestic situation. So what we know is that there
- 5:28Speaker 1: is a stafford that he had an inappropriate relationship with
- 5:31Speaker 1: because the university said that is what they found in
- 5:34Speaker 1: their investigation, which calls for him to be fired. He's
- 5:37Speaker 1: out twelve point three million dollars. By the way, he
- 5:40Speaker 1: will not get the remainder of his twelve point three
- 5:43Speaker 1: million dollars that he would have gotten from this contract
- 5:47Speaker 1: because he was fired for violating the contract and violating
- 5:51Speaker 1: university policy. But we also know that he has a
- 5:53Speaker 1: wife and three kids that he shares with his wife.
- 5:56Speaker 1: But all you know is domestic. We don't know the
- 5:58Speaker 1: identity of the woman at this point. Well, now in
- 6:00Speaker 1: the arrangment, more details are coming out. So prosecutor said
- 6:03Speaker 1: in the arrayment today that Shara Moore, they alleged he
- 6:07Speaker 1: forced his way into the staff member's apartment. So there's
- 6:10Speaker 1: the staff member coming back into play again in a
- 6:12Speaker 1: domestic situation and said allegedly, I'm going to kill myself.
- 6:17Speaker 1: I'm going to make you watch. My blood is on
- 6:19Speaker 1: your hand. You ruined my life. Now, what they alleged
- 6:22Speaker 1: happened is that they led Sharam Moore and this staffer
- 6:27Speaker 1: had a relationship for some years, and that the staffer
- 6:32Speaker 1: broke up with Sharon. They're allegend this happened top of
- 6:37Speaker 1: the week, so all of this is within the matter
- 6:39Speaker 1: of days. And what they allege is that after the
- 6:42Speaker 1: stafford broke up with Sharon, the staff are alleged she
- 6:47Speaker 1: begins to receive a ton of phone calls and text
- 6:49Speaker 1: messages that basically got her and she says that she
- 6:52Speaker 1: alleged she wasn't responding, but these text messages and phone
- 6:56Speaker 1: calls she's alleging got her to the point where she
- 6:59Speaker 1: were she was uncomfortable. She was uncomfortable enough that she
- 7:03Speaker 1: went to university officials. Prosecutors alleged when she went to
- 7:08Speaker 1: university officials, she provided them with phone calls, texts, a
- 7:11Speaker 1: timeline of a relationship, you know, all the things. And
- 7:15Speaker 1: she had to basically come clean about everything, and then
- 7:19Speaker 1: they move forward with firing Charon. Now, I don't have
- 7:23Speaker 1: any answer, but y'all know it is on my list
- 7:25Speaker 1: to ask. I don't have an answer to whether or
- 7:28Speaker 1: not like what has happened with the female staffer yet
- 7:31Speaker 1: we don't have that yet. But in continuing and you
- 7:35Speaker 1: know what they are alleging. The prosecutors, uh, they called
- 7:40Speaker 1: Sharon's alleged actions a series of very very threatening and
- 7:43Speaker 1: intimidating and terrifying statements and behaviors. They also say that,
- 7:48Speaker 1: you know, if he when he is released on his bond,
- 7:51Speaker 1: there are some conditions because of you know, the because
- 7:55Speaker 1: of what the allegations and the charges are, so he
- 7:58Speaker 1: will be tethered to a GPS mind of course, no
- 8:01Speaker 1: contact with the victim and he's going to be ordered
- 8:05Speaker 1: so no contact with the victim, he can't go to
- 8:07Speaker 1: the victim's residents, and there'll be a probable cause conference
- 8:10Speaker 1: that will happen on January second. Now, a probable cause
- 8:15Speaker 1: conference is just a meeting between the prosecutors and the
- 8:20Speaker 1: defense attorneys and where they basically say like, Okay, here's
- 8:23Speaker 1: everything we have, we lay it all out. You kind
- 8:27Speaker 1: of see this if y'all watch Power, you kind of
- 8:29Speaker 1: see them have this meeting all the time where they
- 8:31Speaker 1: get together and they talk and they're like, here's what
- 8:33Speaker 1: I got, Here's what my plan is, Here's how I'm
- 8:35Speaker 1: going to approach it at court. And then the defense
- 8:37Speaker 1: is able to be like, well, no, I don't think
- 8:39Speaker 1: that you should be able to use this, and if
- 8:40Speaker 1: you use this, we're going to do that. And then
- 8:42Speaker 1: they talk about plea deals and they talk about, you know,
- 8:44Speaker 1: just how they plan to move forward, discussing evidence and
- 8:48Speaker 1: you know, all the things, because if they get solved
- 8:49Speaker 1: at that point, they solve it at that point. Now,
- 8:53Speaker 1: the only update that I am seeing per ESPN so far,
- 8:56Speaker 1: and again, all of this is changing by the moment,
- 8:58Speaker 1: literally been on like pens and needles kind of waiting
- 9:01Speaker 1: to get more information, because again, all of this happens
- 9:03Speaker 1: so randomly, like it was just announced that he was fired,
- 9:07Speaker 1: and then all of this like down spiral just happened.
- 9:11Speaker 2: Like.
- 9:13Speaker 1: But so far, there is a statement from his attorney,
- 9:19Speaker 1: and I said this morning on the Breakfast Club when
- 9:20Speaker 1: we talked about this, that at this point, once the
- 9:22Speaker 1: arraignment happened, you would be able to pinpoint who his
- 9:25Speaker 1: attorney or spokesperson was, So we should be able to
- 9:28Speaker 1: get more of his side of things if they plan
- 9:30Speaker 1: to present it. So far, all his attorney has said
- 9:34Speaker 1: is that he underwent a mental health evaluation and it
- 9:39Speaker 1: was turned back over to law enforcement. And they're not
- 9:42Speaker 1: giving details on like where he plans to go upon
- 9:45Speaker 1: his release, like you know, what the situation is with
- 9:47Speaker 1: his actual real family, like anything. So there's a lot
- 9:50Speaker 1: more to come here, so I will keep you guys
- 9:52Speaker 1: updated with the latest. I have questions, as you guys
- 9:55Speaker 1: naturally have. I'm sure tweet meet your questions getting the
- 9:58Speaker 1: streets and into tweet at Laura Lao's everywhere, comment your
- 10:01Speaker 1: questions below. Let's talk about it, I mean, next steps,
- 10:07Speaker 1: what happens here? What are their lessons learned here, not
- 10:10Speaker 1: learned here? Just anything sound off about it. I want
- 10:14Speaker 1: to hear from you guys. Now switching gears to some positivity.
- 10:20Speaker 1: See what kind of dealing with relationships? Waiting to exhale?
- 10:25Speaker 1: They are celebrating the icons, the legends, the lovely pillars
- 10:31Speaker 1: of black television and entertainment, some of them Miss Lee
- 10:37Speaker 1: lover Sean, Angela Bassett, and Loretta Devine all miss I'm
- 10:43Speaker 1: putting the miss in front of all their names. Okay,
- 10:45Speaker 1: I would never not are celebrating thirty years of the
- 10:49Speaker 1: Waiting to ex Hell movie this month that movie premiered
- 10:54Speaker 1: in theaters, and the soundtrack and just all of the
- 10:58Speaker 1: all of the things. So they said down with Gael
- 11:01Speaker 1: King on CBS Mornings and just took a look back
- 11:05Speaker 1: at how impactful bringing black women together who were literally
- 11:11Speaker 1: just waiting to breathe in, breathe out, Let it all
- 11:14Speaker 1: go together, right, navigating life, relationships, all of these things,
- 11:19Speaker 1: but doing it together and showing out on screen just
- 11:23Speaker 1: the ceilings that they broke. Let's stick a listen.
- 11:25Speaker 4: I just feel when you were making the movie that
- 11:27Speaker 4: we're doing something very special that hasn't been done before.
- 11:30Speaker 1: Did you know while you're in it, that this is something.
- 11:34Speaker 4: Being knew it was special because it was our faces,
- 11:38Speaker 4: a brown, beautiful, brilliant faces on the screen together. It
- 11:42Speaker 4: broke through, It burst through because there were so many
- 11:44Speaker 4: times we'd go into a room and you would hear
- 11:47Speaker 4: that stories or stories about black people didn't travel. You know,
- 11:52Speaker 4: didn't you know that they didn't translate, or they wouldn't
- 11:55Speaker 4: travel to a year, it would only there was only
- 11:58Speaker 4: a ceiling, very low ceil. It we burst through that.
- 12:02Speaker 5: I know it was special just because it was so unique,
- 12:07Speaker 5: and I knew how excited everybody was about it, and
- 12:11Speaker 5: I knew how how lucky we were, and how special
- 12:15Speaker 5: everything that Whitney had done up to that point, like
- 12:18Speaker 5: she couldn't make a flop. So it was special in
- 12:21Speaker 5: so many different ways.
- 12:23Speaker 1: Every time I think about career, I think about impact
- 12:28Speaker 1: like that is like probably like one of the things
- 12:30Speaker 1: I think about the most is like how what I'm
- 12:33Speaker 1: doing right now be able to help people after I'm
- 12:36Speaker 1: not doing it anymore, or I've moved on to do
- 12:38Speaker 1: it in a different level, different phase. You know, all
- 12:40Speaker 1: of all of those things run through my mind. I
- 12:42Speaker 1: look at these women. I remember I met Miss Lee
- 12:46Speaker 1: Levershan on a set of BT Talks, which was a
- 12:49Speaker 1: show shout out to BT and a whole team over there,
- 12:51Speaker 1: which was a show that Tamisa shout out to. Tamisa, girl,
- 12:55Speaker 1: you know who you are. She like, oh my god.
- 12:57Speaker 1: They gave me so much opportunity in Free Range with
- 13:01Speaker 1: the interviews I was doing for them. But I met
- 13:03Speaker 1: miss Lee Livershan and I cried. I remember telling people
- 13:05Speaker 1: I cried and they were like, why did you cry?
- 13:08Speaker 1: And for me, it was just like, okay, Number one
- 13:11Speaker 1: waiting to excel is just you. Just even as I'm
- 13:15Speaker 1: talking to you guys about it and saying the name
- 13:17Speaker 1: of the movie, I hear shoot, Shoot, Shoot, and I
- 13:20Speaker 1: see that, you know, the scene in the car, and
- 13:22Speaker 1: like all of the symbolism in that movie for me,
- 13:26Speaker 1: and just seeing those women on camera and live live
- 13:30Speaker 1: their lives and be doing it to it just felt
- 13:33Speaker 1: like it felt so familiar and what that did for
- 13:37Speaker 1: me just as a person wanted to be on television,
- 13:41Speaker 1: be in the media space, act direct right all of
- 13:44Speaker 1: these things. I'm looking at this and I'm like this
- 13:48Speaker 1: is amazing, Like this is when and I think my
- 13:51Speaker 1: first time I felt like I was probably like maybe
- 13:54Speaker 1: twelve thirteen years old the first time I saw Waiting six,
- 13:57Speaker 1: So of course I didn't understand it for real. But
- 14:00Speaker 1: now let me tell y'all something. Now, Okay, me and
- 14:05Speaker 1: my friends did a ski trip like last year around
- 14:08Speaker 1: this time, I want to say, and cause you know,
- 14:12Speaker 1: you get busy. You have things going on in life.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Everybody's in like relationships, and people have kids and it's
- 14:18Speaker 1: just a lot going on. But I don't think people
- 14:22Speaker 1: understand how much getting back together with your good group
- 14:25Speaker 1: of friends, especially you're good good girlfriends. Okay, I'm talking
- 14:28Speaker 1: about the ones where you put a picture in the
- 14:30Speaker 1: chat and they naming they naming people by their jeans
- 14:33Speaker 1: that they were not big jeans, okay, not goal chains, okay,
- 14:38Speaker 1: Like the ones that you really can key key with
- 14:41Speaker 1: that really know you, understand you, or even if they
- 14:44Speaker 1: don't understand you, are willing to take a moment to
- 14:46Speaker 1: try and understand you, or just be there to be
- 14:49Speaker 1: silent to hear you. Getting together with that group of
- 14:52Speaker 1: friends you're good, good, good good girl, You're good, good,
- 14:56Speaker 1: good good girlfriends. It's a different level of like healing. Wow,
- 15:00Speaker 1: I'm gonna text my friends after this and be like, y'all,
- 15:02Speaker 1: we need to do that again, and it needs to
- 15:04Speaker 1: be like an annual thing. But I remember when we
- 15:07Speaker 1: did the trip, when we left, I put that because
- 15:11Speaker 1: you know that there's that mean that always circulates with
- 15:14Speaker 1: the waiting to excel cast. And they're sitting on the
- 15:17Speaker 1: floor and I think they might even be passing, like
- 15:20Speaker 1: they might be smoking somewat or something. I think they are,
- 15:25Speaker 1: And the caption of the meme says, I in my
- 15:28Speaker 1: adult life, I understand this so much more now when
- 15:32Speaker 1: I tell y'all, I put that in the chat, and
- 15:34Speaker 1: we really felt that because it's like, man, you really
- 15:37Speaker 1: do like you the things that this movie does for
- 15:41Speaker 1: the group chat and for the girlfriends. All right. But
- 15:44Speaker 1: one of the other special moments that it was very
- 15:46Speaker 1: emotional to watch them share was when Gail King asked them,
- 15:52Speaker 1: what would Whitney Houston be thinking in this moment looking
- 15:55Speaker 1: back on thirty years? Let's take a listen. What do
- 15:58Speaker 1: you think Whitney would think?
- 15:59Speaker 4: God, it's hard to say, isn't it.
- 16:03Speaker 5: Oh? Man, I think she would be proud.
- 16:09Speaker 4: I think it would have been one of the seminal experiences.
- 16:13Speaker 4: You said, you think she would think It's a seminal moment. Angela,
- 16:17Speaker 4: you know, she's so used to being solo there in
- 16:21Speaker 4: the in the spotlight, in the hot glare, and to
- 16:24Speaker 4: be able to share this moment with your girls, you know.
- 16:26Speaker 5: Yeah, she loved doing it. She had so much fun
- 16:29Speaker 5: and we had fun.
- 16:30Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 16:31Speaker 5: She was just so warm and loving. And I remember
- 16:36Speaker 5: certain press people wanted just Angela and Whitney, and Whitney said, no,
- 16:41Speaker 5: we go as a group, or we don't go at all.
- 16:44Speaker 5: And that was powerful to me that she stood up
- 16:46Speaker 5: for us.
- 16:47Speaker 1: And for the listeners who can't see that clip, Angela
- 16:51Speaker 1: Bassett is like emotional, like she's like wiping you know,
- 16:54Speaker 1: tears in the beginning of them, you know, before their
- 16:59Speaker 1: access question there looking at the shoot video in Whitney Houston,
- 17:03Speaker 1: and she's emotional. Shout out to wait in text hel
- 17:06Speaker 1: in thirty years, shout out to you know babyface who
- 17:09Speaker 1: you know the soundtrack that we got from that I
