• 9:23
  Speaker 10: one on five to one me me was from front
• 9:27
  Speaker 10: Page News.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Was talking about people are shacking up, they're living with
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: each other. No, stop saying shacking up. Shacking up is
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: something different. Somebody, Grandma and me and my wife used
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: to shack up because we were a couple. We weren't married.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: That's what you call shacking up.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: These are people who are actually roommates because you know,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: financially they can't afford to rent on their own like this.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Ain't no shacking up, ain't no loving going on.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Now, I'm trying to get the polygamy question going, but
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: ain't nobody biting on the Nobody want to do that.
• 9:53
  Speaker 10: Yeah, now, if you're just joining us, me and me.
• 9:55
  Speaker 10: During Front Page News, she was talking about how difficult
• 9:59
  Speaker 10: it out there is out there for homeowners, and she
• 10:01
  Speaker 10: said people are having roommates living with each other.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: So let's listen.
• 10:04
  Speaker 15: There's a new housing survey that's raising questions this morning
• 10:07
  Speaker 15: about roommate red flags. It says that more adults in
• 10:09
  Speaker 15: their thirties and forties they're sharing space again because rent
• 10:13
  Speaker 15: is just simply too high. So recent data from Zillo
• 10:15
  Speaker 15: it shows living alone can cost renters more than ten
• 10:17
  Speaker 15: thousand dollars, and so people are splitting it because financially
• 10:21
  Speaker 15: it makes sense. But respondence to that survey say that
• 10:23
  Speaker 15: they're facing issues that they thought they left behind in college,
• 10:26
  Speaker 15: like dirty dishes, stacking up for days, boyfriend or girlfriends
• 10:29
  Speaker 15: that are practically moving in without paying bills, and late
• 10:32
  Speaker 15: payments that in some cases their credit is being affected
• 10:35
  Speaker 15: because someone on the lease isn't keeping their part of
• 10:37
  Speaker 15: the deal.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Listen, I completely get it. I know that there's a
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: lot of people living that life, you know. I'm sure
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of adults that have to have roommates
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: because of the economy. So I mean, I understand, like
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: you gotta do what you gotta do till you get
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: back on your feet. Man, I don't see a problem
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: with it.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: But if you got four or five roommates, right, four
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: or five is crazy?
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: I don't even know, Like what kind of place are

• 12:38
  Speaker 10: the girl back kicking.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: Out, not embarrassed, but you just got to be respectful
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: of the house. Rum the house.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's nothing to be embarrassed about.
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: No, no, no, no, not to be embarrassed. But that's
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: kicking out more bread. If you already can't afford to
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: live on his own, you're getting you getting hotels for cheeks.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, just got a point. You got to upgrade
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: the female.
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but when you got home spots, who could go
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: over there too?
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: I was right saying it depends on the type of
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: one that.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: We don't know. What you ask? How much is runners?
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: That's all?
• 13:08
  Speaker 16: Oh?

• 13:16

• 13:24
  Speaker 5: at least some women to call it because they be
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: the first ones with it.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Well, what's the mall of the story because we don't
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: have that on the.
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: Line, an you know, it ain't that many people out
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: there that's willing to do that, right The moral of
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: the story to me is nothing.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: It's just like people doing what they gotta do to survive.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: I'm not judging nobody like I think what you know.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: That new survey says a lot. It says a lot
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: about where the economy is, and you know, people are
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: literally doing what they gotta do to get by.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: So I get it. I understand.
• 13:52
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I just always worry about the safety issue, right
• 13:54
  Speaker 10: because you don't know who you're living with, you don't
• 13:56
  Speaker 10: know you know where they came from or intentions all.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: So that's a scary part about it.
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: You know, got mental illness and all this type of stuff.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: You just never know be thieving, that's true. Just imagine

• 14:59
  Speaker 11: You for.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: So let's talk from the beginning. How did the talk
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: get back together?
• 15:04
  Speaker 10: Well, first of all, how did B two K get
• 15:06
  Speaker 10: to the reason and say we're gonna come back as
• 15:07
  Speaker 10: a group and say we're gonna put on a show
• 15:09
  Speaker 10: for the people.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: How did y'all have to start those conversations we all
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: gonna look at it? Oh man, Uh this real quick.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: I came to c O.
• 15:20
  Speaker 18: He had a show out in La. I put up
• 15:22
  Speaker 18: on him and uh man, it was just it was dope.
• 15:25
  Speaker 18: I'm like, I want to come support, you know what
• 15:27
  Speaker 18: I mean? And uh when I got there, he pulled
• 15:29
  Speaker 18: me up on stage. We did a quick little rendition
• 15:32
  Speaker 18: of a girlfriend. But after the show we talked and
• 15:36
  Speaker 18: we had dinner and it was like a breaking of
• 15:39
  Speaker 18: the ice. I hadn't seen him since like twenty nineteen,
• 15:42
  Speaker 18: so it was like six years or something like that.
• 15:45
  Speaker 18: To make a long story short, it was a great conversation.
• 15:47
  Speaker 18: You know, we talked about some of the issues that
• 15:49
  Speaker 18: we were having, you know what I'm saying since the
• 15:51
  Speaker 18: last time we've seen each other. And then moving forward,
• 15:54
  Speaker 18: we brought the guys into the fold and we just
• 15:56
  Speaker 18: kind of made a group chat and we used to start,
• 15:58
  Speaker 18: you know, mending a lot of uh the broken parts,
• 16:01
  Speaker 18: and then we had a great conversation that almost led
• 16:04
  Speaker 18: to a couple of blows into wrestling matches because you're like,
• 16:08
  Speaker 18: you know, I'm gonna shoot it straight with you if
• 16:09
  Speaker 18: we're gonna get past this.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't like that you feel me.
• 16:12
  Speaker 18: But we ain't got to go into detail. But it
• 16:14
  Speaker 18: brings us to the current space where you know, it
• 16:16
  Speaker 18: was an opportunity for us to go back.
• 16:18
  Speaker 14: On the road.
• 16:19
  Speaker 18: And that's where Ras comes in. How Boo got tied in.
• 16:23
  Speaker 18: We was at the BET Awards, and if you know Ras,
• 16:27
  Speaker 18: you know, I.
• 16:28
  Speaker 19: Was always super passionate about brotherhood, you know what I mean,
• 16:31
  Speaker 19: And obviously I've had my trials and you know, uh
• 16:35
  Speaker 19: time and great counseling.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: It's definitely brought me to a better space.
• 16:39
  Speaker 19: And you know what what better person to tour with
• 16:42
  Speaker 19: other than bow Wow being that, being that we started
• 16:45
  Speaker 19: our career with Bao. You know, we was in his
• 16:46
  Speaker 19: first Ghetto Girls video, we went on tour with him,
• 16:48
  Speaker 19: So it's just a full circle moment.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: I want to stay there for a secon because of
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Mario and you.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: I know you're a very spiritual person, right and you
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: all about energy what needed to heal exactly for this
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: to happen.
• 16:59
  Speaker 11: I think maturity, you know that plays a big role
• 17:03
  Speaker 11: in everything, you know, being able to see other perspectives.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: In respect.
• 17:11
  Speaker 11: I really feel like, you know, in twenty nineteen, things
• 17:14
  Speaker 11: were shifting. You know, it was a great opportunity for us,
• 17:17
  Speaker 11: But I don't know that everybody was on the same
• 17:20
  Speaker 11: page as far as life experiences, wins and losses. You know,
• 17:25
  Speaker 11: you get to a space as an adult, you know
• 17:28
  Speaker 11: where you know else could feel.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Like lessons instead of losses.
• 17:34
  Speaker 11: And it feels like we all have kind of, you know,
• 17:38
  Speaker 11: risen to that level where you know we're all we're
• 17:40
  Speaker 11: all parents, you know what I'm saying, Like we have
• 17:43
  Speaker 11: to look at the scope beyond our personal feelings. So
• 17:47
  Speaker 11: I really feel like that's what that's why we're here
• 17:51
  Speaker 11: again today. And a lot of people like to I
• 17:54
  Speaker 11: guess hone in on the business aspect of it, which
• 17:56
  Speaker 11: is cool, But what people forget is is that, you know,
• 17:59
  Speaker 11: we were very young when we started, so we established
• 18:03
  Speaker 11: something beyond you know, in respects to the business. We
• 18:07
  Speaker 11: really created a bond in a brotherhood. So we're happy
• 18:11
  Speaker 11: to present ourselves in a better way, in a more
• 18:14
  Speaker 11: mature way.
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: And yeah, you know what about you?
• 18:19
  Speaker 10: I was you getting back to the group because you said,
• 18:21
  Speaker 10: you send down a bunch of emails and you've been
• 18:23
  Speaker 10: up here passionate before about making this work. So what
• 18:25
  Speaker 10: was for you just said you know what this is
• 18:27
  Speaker 10: going to work or what needed to happen for you
• 18:29
  Speaker 10: to say this could work again?
• 18:31
  Speaker 19: For me, I had to take accountability for my actions
• 18:33
  Speaker 19: right and learn how to regulate my emotions. There's a
• 18:35
  Speaker 19: lot of things I learned and different culting skills and therapy,
• 18:39
  Speaker 19: and I feel like with my maturity, my marriage, me
• 18:41
  Speaker 19: having children, it's just really grounded me. And I feel
• 18:44
  Speaker 19: like there was a love that I was looking for
• 18:45
  Speaker 19: because when you dedicate so much to this industry and
• 18:47
  Speaker 19: then the rug is pull up on you, and then
• 18:49
  Speaker 19: you're just trying to figure out your back is against
• 18:51
  Speaker 19: the wall. You're feeling these emotions that you don't know express.
• 18:54
  Speaker 19: You got people around you exploiting that, you know what
• 18:56
  Speaker 19: I mean. So just getting into good space and then
• 18:58
  Speaker 19: having my brothers, you know.
• 19:00
  Speaker 20: Went out to his therapist.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Therapist.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: I just.
• 19:15
  Speaker 20: I have a therapist.
• 19:16
  Speaker 18: But he's like I want to call him at four
• 19:21
  Speaker 18: He like yo, walking the floors like hey, listen, we're
• 19:24
  Speaker 18: gonna go into that.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: But yeah, shout outs to.
• 19:28
  Speaker 7: My real brother's kind of accountability.
• 19:30
  Speaker 16: Man.
• 19:30
  Speaker 11: Yeah, definitely just the maturity, you know, growing up taking accountability,
• 19:35
  Speaker 11: having those rough conversations with oh, and you know, just
• 19:39
  Speaker 11: really displaying the true genuineness from my heart, you know,
• 19:44
  Speaker 11: and action more than words. So I think that's just
• 19:47
  Speaker 11: really what brought us all back.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: What do you argue about, like who got the best
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: baby Hares? Yeah, I know, y'all.
• 20:05
  Speaker 17: I mean with a Maria and Fizz we saw everything
• 20:07
  Speaker 17: with like you know, April like whatever, And I know
• 20:09
  Speaker 17: that there was a when I saw your apology Fizz
• 20:12
  Speaker 17: a few years ago, I felt like there was a
• 20:14
  Speaker 17: lot of hurt on both sides that led to where
• 20:17
  Speaker 17: y'all got to how has it been dealing with that
• 20:19
  Speaker 17: hurt in real time? Because I know the conversations are
• 20:21
  Speaker 17: probably still happening actively, Like that's not like a one
• 20:24
  Speaker 17: time thing.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the whole entirety of it.
• 20:28
  Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying.
• 20:29
  Speaker 11: It was hurt there, so to come from it, you know,
• 20:33
  Speaker 11: it has to be rough conversations, Yeah, for sure.
• 20:35
  Speaker 17: And I guess my question in that was so in
• 20:38
  Speaker 17: dealing with that day to day, because that's not like
• 20:41
  Speaker 17: an easy thing to deal with. How is that every day?
• 20:43
  Speaker 17: Like when things come back up, how do you guys
• 20:45
  Speaker 17: like work through it actively?
• 20:47
  Speaker 18: So let me I'm gonna speak on that, because it's
• 20:50
  Speaker 18: it's deeper than this them, you know what I'm saying. Like,
• 20:52
  Speaker 18: there's a family that you're talking about. So if anybody
• 20:56
  Speaker 18: got siblings and you close, you know what I'm saying,
• 20:59
  Speaker 18: Like what they go through, it don't just affect them,
• 21:01
  Speaker 18: And it's not just them, you know what I'm saying,
• 21:03
  Speaker 18: working to get through it.
• 21:05
  Speaker 16: You know.
• 21:05
  Speaker 18: For us, it's like since day one, it's always been
• 21:09
  Speaker 18: a straight up you know, So we're not gonna hold
• 21:12
  Speaker 18: on to nothing that we didn't already cover. You know
• 21:14
  Speaker 18: what I'm saying, Like, once the conversation has had, even
• 21:17
  Speaker 18: if it's a boxing in the in the closet, that
• 21:19
  Speaker 18: gotta go down once that's done done.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
• 21:24
  Speaker 20: So it's not a question or a conversation.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: And I did not know Buz was the Bill Belichick
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: it this. I just wanted to be you know.
• 21:37
  Speaker 10: Yeah, And I'm gonna ask you know what made you say,
• 21:41
  Speaker 10: you know what? I want to do it with these
• 21:43
  Speaker 10: guys right because they've been left up for a while,
• 21:46
  Speaker 10: up and down there two members, one member, three members
• 21:48
  Speaker 10: or half a member. So what made you say, you
• 21:49
  Speaker 10: know what, we're gonna put this effic go on to it.
• 21:51
  Speaker 10: Make sure they're gonna stay the whole tour together. No,
• 21:53
  Speaker 10: it just made sense, like b two awards, like it
• 21:56
  Speaker 10: just made sense sitting it together.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: It was strong. Prisons was there. It's like, okay, feel right,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: And of course you know Rascal speak.
• 22:04
  Speaker 21: His mind whenever you don't care if I'm like we
• 22:06
  Speaker 21: go on live, you don't give it, damn you wanna
• 22:07
  Speaker 21: do this tour with us? He said it live on TV,
• 22:10
  Speaker 21: like put me right there on the spot. So I
• 22:13
  Speaker 21: was like, yeah, it do make sense, you know what
• 22:14
  Speaker 21: I'm saying. It's like the screen to all over again.
• 22:16
  Speaker 21: You know, me and Oh We've been doing it for
• 22:17
  Speaker 21: the past couple of years together. I came out on
• 22:20
  Speaker 21: the first run with twenty nineteen. He brought me out
• 22:23
  Speaker 21: right and Atlanta, and it.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Just made sense.
• 22:26
  Speaker 21: Them as a group, I haven't toured with them and
• 22:28
  Speaker 21: over what twenty years, so it just made since me
• 22:31
  Speaker 21: and Chris did runs, me and Old Dead runs and
• 22:33
  Speaker 21: I'm like, yeah, we only danced what twice? It'll be
• 22:36
  Speaker 21: good to dance from more time. And the Millennium tours
• 22:39
  Speaker 21: have been killing them, like every year, we've just been
• 22:41
  Speaker 21: killing them, and we just felt like the time is now.
• 22:42
  Speaker 21: They're celebrating I'm celebrating twenty five in the game, the
• 22:45
  Speaker 21: boys just celebrating theirs, and it's just a full circle moment.
• 22:48
  Speaker 21: It's like, yeah, let's do it now, and we still
• 22:50
  Speaker 21: got it and that's the thing still it. Yeah, absolutely, you.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: Know, me and a whole other millions of people.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: And were ready and I could tell you what was serious.
• 23:01
  Speaker 21: I could tell you what was serious, like you would
• 23:02
  Speaker 21: just tell you know what I'm saying, And I'm like, yeah,
• 23:05
  Speaker 21: I just feel right, let's go ahead and dance.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Let's do it.
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: How did y'all pick the rest of the asks? I
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: see y'all got crime on pretty Ricky Jeremiah walk the fucker.
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: That's the long ass show.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Is it different?
• 23:14
  Speaker 16: Like we we? We we?
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: That's a VPC question.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: A lot of people promoters collected. Sometimes I ain't gonna lie.
• 23:23
  Speaker 18: I ain't gonna capt like sometimes we do got a
• 23:24
  Speaker 18: little safe, So I ain't gonna lie like we did
• 23:26
  Speaker 18: it the one year like I had, I had hits
• 23:28
  Speaker 18: like yo, I.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Think you should roll with us.
• 23:30
  Speaker 21: And then if we get okay, like we'll lib it
• 23:32
  Speaker 21: to like Gary or whatever, like you know what I'm saying,
• 23:33
  Speaker 21: like Franchise and Peppin that's the homies, just like all right, man,
• 23:36
  Speaker 21: we do not on this bitch six years in the road.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: They definitely do.
• 23:41
  Speaker 18: They And I'm like, we gotta switch it up, man,
• 23:43
  Speaker 18: bring them back like so we sometimes we did some
• 23:45
  Speaker 18: say so then sometimes we be like I know, I
• 23:47
  Speaker 18: know I have.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: I'm been like, man, put this on there and we'll
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: get closer. They don't. I'll be like, but yeah, we
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: do get a little safe. So old you did it
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: because you.
• 23:54
  Speaker 21: Got me on then I always get oh his credit
• 24:01
  Speaker 21: when it comes to the Millennium brand, you know what
• 24:03
  Speaker 21: I'm saying, Like, you know, and and Ras too, and
• 24:05
  Speaker 21: just the whole the guys, you know, I mean, it
• 24:06
  Speaker 21: was theirs.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You just got the DNA screen.
• 24:11
  Speaker 19: Touras yeah, you know, probably still going to do it.
• 24:15
  Speaker 21: I think for sure that the confusion is it is
• 24:18
  Speaker 21: the DNA from the screen right, That's where it comes from.
• 24:21
  Speaker 21: But the Millennium tour oweing them popped that off first.
• 24:24
  Speaker 21: The boys popped that off first. You know what I'm
• 24:26
  Speaker 21: saying that Oh came and grabbed me like, hey, you
• 24:30
  Speaker 21: can't turn this down.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: Like it's really a no brainer.
• 24:31
  Speaker 21: So I'll give credit to my bro because I wasn't
• 24:34
  Speaker 21: even thinking about touring out.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: That wasn't on my mind. I was on some other
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: and he's like, now you got to come get a
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: piece of this, And bro did that.
• 24:41
  Speaker 10: You know what I'm saying, Take it serious because it
• 24:42
  Speaker 10: was one time he was wild about I mean when
• 24:44
  Speaker 10: you was wilding on JD ME, you and ray J

• 26:23
  Speaker 21: that's why I ain't seen me no no for the past.
• 26:25
  Speaker 21: I don't know how long I just been on my

• 26:57
  Speaker 10: get into it like that.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Sis though, like that, that's.
• 27:00
  Speaker 21: Another one who gonna hold me accountable, check on me.
• 27:03
  Speaker 21: I was just with Snoop last week. That's another person
• 27:06
  Speaker 21: that you know that's gonna get on me. And it's
• 27:09
  Speaker 21: just too many people that I got that's in my
• 27:12
  Speaker 21: corner that I know I can always talk to.
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: You.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Got a lot of lebron in you.
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you what I mean right, Like, it's
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: hard to like meet expectation when when you think about
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: when we saw bow Wow on our senior hall ago,
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: like that little dude nice.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you didn't have to become a superstar. Nope, that
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: could have went either way. Do you ever think about that.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: I knew it. I knew it, Like this is all
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: I knew. I didn't know nothing, that's all I know.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: I didn't know nothing else.
• 27:41
  Speaker 21: At first, it was being a comedian, and I think
• 27:43
  Speaker 21: that's how I was able to transition to the acting
• 27:46
  Speaker 21: things so easily I.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Started out with that.
• 27:48
  Speaker 18: First rapping came because I could mimic just about anybody.
• 27:51
  Speaker 18: And then if you could mimic, you're basically doing it.
• 27:53
  Speaker 18: So then it was like, all right, cool. Then somebody
• 27:55
  Speaker 18: start writing my wraps. I think if I write it.
• 27:57
  Speaker 18: Then boomed in the whole Chronic Tour ninety three and
• 28:00
  Speaker 18: Snoop find me, I mean, dash shout out the dash,
• 28:02
  Speaker 18: Dash finds we bring me to the back.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: The rest is history.
• 28:05
  Speaker 21: And it was like, Okay, I guess we're gonna say
• 28:07
  Speaker 21: on this path, then this is what we're gonna do.
• 28:08
  Speaker 21: That's what God chose for me, So we're gonna ride
• 28:10
  Speaker 21: it out. I'm gonna ride out to the death. Though
• 28:11
  Speaker 21: I ain't gonna stop this no time ever. I'm never
• 28:13
  Speaker 21: gonna stop.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: I love it.
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: And you say that now because even when you were
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: wild and going through you, I knew it like it
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: just wasn't for no reason, Like what do you think
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: it was that you feel a loan? Like were you
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: dealing with honestly just doing dumb It's just that.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: It stretched out or nothing. I really listened. I really

  Speaker 1: thought I was low key when I was put up
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: the plane, I really did. I thought I was low
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: key and I did that. I just got caught, you

  Speaker 17: that there was a thing. But you said that he
• 35:21
  Speaker 17: didn't respect your craft because he said whatever he said
• 35:24
  Speaker 17: about how you've seen.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he was like he said something like it was
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: it was the Dean.
• 35:30
  Speaker 11: Yeah, he's like hitting and miss And it was like,
• 35:32
  Speaker 11: come on, bro, twenty years, come on bro.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Though everybody knows.
• 35:39
  Speaker 18: Y'all, like you know, the host of these podcast is
• 35:43
  Speaker 18: that's some messy stuff right there. You feel me like
• 35:45
  Speaker 18: you present the opportunity for us to have to go
• 35:49
  Speaker 18: head up, you know, like like literally, what kind of
• 35:51
  Speaker 18: question is that?
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 35:53
  Speaker 20: And at the same time shout out Tomorrio, but like,
• 35:56
  Speaker 20: what kind of answer is that? You know what I'm saying? Like,
• 35:58
  Speaker 20: we all, we all worked to build this.
• 36:01
  Speaker 11: Music industry, and guess what your favorite artist has bad days?
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: Your favorite artist is flat.
• 36:07
  Speaker 11: The greatest singers, they don't sound great all of the time.
• 36:10
  Speaker 11: Like it's a part of it. Y'all come here and
• 36:12
  Speaker 11: show up every day, y'all not feeling good every day.
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: They don't feel like talking about.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: This, you know what I'm saying.
• 36:18
  Speaker 11: They don't see that though, you know what I mean.
• 36:20
  Speaker 11: So it's like for another person at another station to
• 36:23
  Speaker 11: be like, oh yeah, and you'd be like, oh, what's
• 36:26
  Speaker 11: what's up with that?
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 36:28
  Speaker 11: And I'm never I've never been an artist to hate
• 36:30
  Speaker 11: on other artists.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: That's never been my thing. So we've supported everybody.
• 36:34
  Speaker 11: Yeah, so when people try to do the little slide thing,
• 36:37
  Speaker 11: I have an issue with that because it's unnecessary.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: We all hear and we have enough room to make
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: space for everybody.
• 36:43
  Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying, And that's why everybody sees me,
• 36:46
  Speaker 11: and then they put their arm out on want to
• 36:48
  Speaker 11: say what's up.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: But then they're going to interview, and it's.
• 36:50
  Speaker 11: Just like I have a problem with that.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Another thing which is crazy because I've seen real dances
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: give you props, like to Chris Brown, and for whatever reason,
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: there's always this even going to run out and Mario,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: I'm geting away with this bulls.
• 37:02
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it's just that one dance that everybody redoes.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: But he gets busy dancing crazy and everybody know it.
• 37:10
  Speaker 7: Oh still still cold?
• 37:11
  Speaker 8: What?
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: First of all, when you dope best something, you don't
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: lose it.
• 37:16
  Speaker 11: You know you might shift and it might change for you,
• 37:19
  Speaker 11: but you know you changed from how you used to
• 37:22
  Speaker 11: be in the beginning. But you don't lose it, you
• 37:24
  Speaker 11: know what I mean, unless you don't use it. And
• 37:26
  Speaker 11: trust me, I'll be in the lab. I be in
• 37:29
  Speaker 11: the lab.
• 37:30
  Speaker 21: The old dance twenty four seven, that's that's not a cat.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Gonna dance everywhere we go.
• 37:40
  Speaker 11: I'm sure.
• 37:40
  Speaker 14: Yes.
• 37:41
  Speaker 20: I think the other day we was rehearsal and he
• 37:43
  Speaker 20: just out of nowhere.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: It was like, I just love dancing. He was like,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: I want you to really know this. Yeah, I really
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: do kicks off sex appociate. Man, that's right, thank you
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: God appreciate appreciate for sure. Hell yeah, fiz O poly.
• 38:09
  Speaker 7: Appreciate that.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: Don't you think that donkeys around here around.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: It's time for donkey they made with the donkey of
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: the day. By the things that I said, some donkey
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: days just sell themselves. It was you, what accountability are
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: you taking?
• 38:36
  Speaker 5: Put me off.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not making new people do these day.
• 38:40
  Speaker 21: On the breakfast, Cloying said, I want to start off
• 38:43
  Speaker 21: with this donkey right here.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Donkey to Dave goes to a forty six year old
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Houston man named James Earl Johnson.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: Black.
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, what race? It will not be needed today.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Okay, that is one of the blackest names I've ever
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: heard in my life. All Right, this man is named
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: after somebody's great great grandfather.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: He sounds like he was a custodian in a high
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: school when they ended segregation in America in sixty four. Okay,
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: James or Earl Anna Johnson. I know he done got
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: denied for a loan quite a few times. Okay, probably
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: discriminated against during a hiring processor two. I know he
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: didn't get a call back. You know, studies show people
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: with black sounding names get fifty percent fewer callbacks than
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: identical resumes with white sounding names. So I know James
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Earl Johnson wasn't getting no callbacks. But anyway, James Arl Johnson,
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: how is he not James Arl Johnson the third? Okay,
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: that name is too old to be the first. Okay,
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: But anyway, James Arl Johnson has been arrested in charge
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: with abusing his wife. Okay, his wife is disabled and
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: investigators are saying he held his disabled wife captive inside
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: their home for years. What do you mean, uncle Shawla,
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: he held his disabled wife captive for years? Well, let's
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: go to ABC thirteen for the report.
• 39:53
  Speaker 22: Police from the outside looking in what some might consider
• 39:56
  Speaker 22: a dream home, but police say for one woman, the
• 39:59
  Speaker 22: house Crownrige Court was in fact a house of horrors.
• 40:03
  Speaker 22: Investigators say the forty six year old woman who's disabled,
• 40:07
  Speaker 22: was allegedly held captive in a bedroom for five years
• 40:11
  Speaker 22: by her own husband.
• 40:12
  Speaker 9: To James Johnson.
• 40:13
  Speaker 22: James Earl Johnson arrested Friday morning, but a sense bonded
• 40:17
  Speaker 22: out of jail with an order to stay away from
• 40:20
  Speaker 22: the victim, and the house with the couple's children also reside.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: It's here.
• 40:25
  Speaker 22: Court documents say the victim was held under lock and
• 40:28
  Speaker 22: key with no phone access. Finally, Friday, police say her
• 40:32
  Speaker 22: husband left a phone on the nightstand, which he used
• 40:35
  Speaker 22: to call nine one Wide, but police say Johnson cut
• 40:38
  Speaker 22: the call short, slapping his wife and carrying her back
• 40:42
  Speaker 22: to bed, then hanging up on the nine to one
• 40:44
  Speaker 22: one dispatcher.
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: You've got a woman who's being held captive, and that
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: is a pure form of coercive control, which.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: Is a form of abuse, James Earl, Mister Johnson, why
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: why you know? You know, years ago Larry King, the
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Great Larry King Rest in peace to Larry King. He
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: said to me, you know, Charlamagne, the greatest question you
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: can ask in an interview is why.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: I think that's the greatest question to ask in life.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: You know, I've been going to therapy for a solid
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: decade now, and that is what I'm always trying to
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: get to the root of the why of things.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: Why did I react this way? Why did this trigger me?
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Why did I behave like this in this moment? So
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: it makes me ask that.
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: Question of other people often and for James Earl Johnson,
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: that's the question. Why why couldn't James Earl Johnson just
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: get a divorce? Why couldn't you just break up with
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: his wife? What made him treat his wife the way
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Helen treated Charles? And Diary of a Mad Black Woman?
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: Okay? Was this Diary of a mad Black name? Okay?
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: Did y'all try mediation? Did y'all try legal separation? Was
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: there any exit strategy discussed at all? Not even discussed
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: with each other? Did you have a meeting with yourself,
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: James Earl Johnson?
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: I'm just trying to figure out why you thought captivity
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: and torture? What's the best course of action here? I
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: can't believe I have to say this on Breathless Club
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: this morning, But leaving a spouse rather than mistreating them
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: is always the better option. Okay, It's way more ethical
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: than leaving her, leaving her in a room like he did,
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: with a single egg to eat and giving her dinner
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: on one time a day, this woman had to call
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: nine to one one when her husband, James Earl Johnson,
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: accidentally left a phone on the nightstand.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: This would be Tyler Perry's version of Misery. Okay.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: I was born in nineteen hundred and seventy eight, so
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: I remember the movie Misery from the nineties when Annie
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: held Paul captive. This is that, okay, At least in
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: the movie Misery, though we knew the why because Annie
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: was an obsessive fan. There was no reason for James
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: Earl Johnson to be doing what he was doing to
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: his wife other than pure evil. Okay, just leave o
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: Broh Divorsa all right.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Any expert you.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: Ask, any counselor you ask, will tell you that no
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: one deserves to be treated badly, and staying in a miserable,
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: harmful situation often causes more long term damage than leaving.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: Is this story not proof of that?
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: Is this story not proof that those experts and counselors
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: are correct?
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Please let bring me Ma give James Earl Johnson the
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: biggest he haw.
• 43:15
  Speaker 10: He haw he ha, You stupid mother?
• 43:18
  Speaker 16: Are you?
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Dumb's?
• 43:20
  Speaker 10: Dj n V just hilarious, Charlamagne the guy we are
• 43:23
  Speaker 10: the breakfast club. Laura La Rosa is here as well,
• 43:26
  Speaker 10: and we got a special guest in the building, the legend.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: Welcome man. I am blessed, how you I'm doing amazing?
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: All of this young energy. I'll take it on. I
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: was born in seventy eight. If I'm young, do you
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: thank you?
• 43:46
  Speaker 7: Seventy eight? I got abroad it, I bought the seven.
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: You never stopped working. No you hear today because you
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: got a new show, The Inside Fix. But you just
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: put out a book Spiritual Him.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Why can't you ever keep still well?
• 44:03
  Speaker 16: Because I don't want to grow roots. To grow roots,
• 44:06
  Speaker 16: you know, roots are not not helpful.
• 44:10
  Speaker 7: God's good, you know, don't We need it?
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Absolutely?
• 44:13
  Speaker 7: We need the work, so we need the energy. So
• 44:17
  Speaker 7: I'm out here. I'm out here. I could be on
• 44:19
  Speaker 7: the poll, but this is so much more beneficial.
• 44:26
  Speaker 10: Let's see the first episode hilarious. So for people that
• 44:29
  Speaker 10: don't know, it's it's almost like where are they now?
• 44:33
  Speaker 7: Were we now? Not them?
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 44:36
  Speaker 7: Where are we now?
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: Break down the show that?
• 44:38
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 44:38
  Speaker 16: What I did was we went back into some of
• 44:41
  Speaker 16: our highest rated shows with the most of them, with
• 44:46
  Speaker 16: the most I know, I'm a mean machine, and we
• 44:50
  Speaker 16: looked at those shows for issues that are going on
• 44:54
  Speaker 16: today because the way we deal with stuff today is
• 44:57
  Speaker 16: very different than we did twelve years ago. Twelve years ago,
• 45:00
  Speaker 16: these six women had a problem and they pulled their
• 45:05
  Speaker 16: their copy down off the internet. Today, you know that
• 45:08
  Speaker 16: would be ig I T Facebook, they would be canceled, and.
• 45:14
  Speaker 7: So how we deal with it today?
• 45:16
  Speaker 16: But the issue of breakdown among women is just as
• 45:21
  Speaker 16: prevalent today as it was back then.
• 45:24
  Speaker 7: So how do we deal with that? How do we
• 45:25
  Speaker 7: address that? So that's what we're doing.
• 45:27
  Speaker 16: We're going back into the shows and looking at how
• 45:30
  Speaker 16: to take those issues and apply them.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: I love how you did it.
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: Why did you find that more appealing than revisiting I mean,
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: why did you decide to revisit older stories instead of
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: helping new families?
• 45:39
  Speaker 16: Because I'm old, I'm old and season, you know, because
• 45:50
  Speaker 16: we just keep reinventing stuff and we don't even really
• 45:53
  Speaker 16: get all the juice out of what we got. We
• 45:55
  Speaker 16: didn't get all the juice out of Fix my Life.
• 45:57
  Speaker 16: That's why we can go back in and do it
• 46:00
  Speaker 16: again today. The things that are applicable back then. I
• 46:04
  Speaker 16: did shows with mothers and daughters, and now you have
• 46:07
  Speaker 16: mothers divorcing or daughter's divorcing, mothers, children not speaking to parents.
• 46:13
  Speaker 7: That wasn't going on back then.
• 46:16
  Speaker 16: So yeah, and also to let people know that sometimes
• 46:24
  Speaker 16: you don't even know what you're looking at because people
• 46:28
  Speaker 16: looked at that and got into the characters and the people,
• 46:31
  Speaker 16: but they were looking at a whole nother thing.
• 46:34
  Speaker 7: Just like in the world today, we don't really know
• 46:36
  Speaker 7: what we're looking at.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: It's found that we don't really know.
• 46:42
  Speaker 7: We're trying to get me shot. Do I look.
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: Could have lived to be on this show.
• 46:56
  Speaker 16: He wasn't ready. I think he was willing, but he
• 47:00
  Speaker 16: wasn't ready. And you gotta be both. Can't be just
• 47:05
  Speaker 16: ready and not willing or willing. He wasn't he wasn't ready.
• 47:09
  Speaker 10: You're also talking about.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: Lady balls, lady balls just have lads.
• 47:14
  Speaker 16: Well, yes, okay, now, but we gotta understand that lady
• 47:21
  Speaker 16: balls and testicles are different.
• 47:25
  Speaker 7: Okay because testing you see what you see now, the
• 47:31
  Speaker 7: hair you see on testicles is real.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: Before just get defended.
• 47:39
  Speaker 16: You see a lot of women, because of the the
• 47:43
  Speaker 16: way we are conditioned and programmed and educated, take on
• 47:47
  Speaker 16: masculine qualities, you know, and and they think gets powerful.
• 47:53
  Speaker 16: But feminine power is very different than masculine power. Feminine
• 47:58
  Speaker 16: power is assertive, mask power is aggressive. Feminine power is directive.
• 48:04
  Speaker 16: It's nurturing, it's nourishing, it's clear and masculine power is
• 48:09
  Speaker 16: often domineering and controlling and directive as opposed to collaborative. So,
• 48:16
  Speaker 16: lady balls, you know a lot of women today want
• 48:18
  Speaker 16: to be the boss and they want to be the
• 48:21
  Speaker 16: diva and have.
• 48:23
  Speaker 7: No leadership skills whatsoever.
• 48:25
  Speaker 16: Lady balls are how a powerful woman lives in, moves
• 48:31
  Speaker 16: and stands in her power in a way that nurtures, nourishes, supports, heals,
• 48:38
  Speaker 16: grows other people. It's not testicles. Testicles are aggressive. They
• 48:43
  Speaker 16: got here and sometimes they smell. Don't ask me how
• 48:46
  Speaker 16: I know? You know?
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: And it's interesting in one of the episodes, you point
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: out that women don't know the distinction between assertiveness and aggression.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: Yes, how do you advise women to create a distinction
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: between the two?
• 49:00
  Speaker 7: Well, lead with your heart and not with your head.
• 49:05
  Speaker 16: Lead with your heart. That's that's ladyballs. Lady balls don't
• 49:08
  Speaker 16: come from the crotch, They come from the heart.
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: Did you come up with ladys? Did you come up?
• 49:14
  Speaker 16: Because I said it for so long, but then when
• 49:17
  Speaker 16: I went to try the trademarket, people have said that,
• 49:21
  Speaker 16: But I spell mind differently, and nobody else has a
• 49:23
  Speaker 16: deck of cards.
• 49:24
  Speaker 7: My team created a deck of cards. So you can
• 49:26
  Speaker 7: pull your lady ball card.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: You think I was like, what.
• 49:33
  Speaker 7: We're talking about balls? Mister Willie doesn't.
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: Have to show up.
• 49:38
  Speaker 17: What do you What do you say to women who
• 49:40
  Speaker 17: have like because a lot of women shy away from
• 49:42
  Speaker 17: leading with their heart because they're called to emotional or
• 49:45
  Speaker 17: they they're scared to be vulnerable and make decisions based
• 49:48
  Speaker 17: off of emotion because they think that they're not thinking clearly.
• 49:50
  Speaker 7: Why do you think the heart is about emotion?
• 49:54
  Speaker 17: That's what most people would relate heartfelt decisions too. When
• 49:56
  Speaker 17: it comes to women, well, who men? Yes, men, because
• 50:00
  Speaker 17: most women are so far out.
• 50:01
  Speaker 7: Of their heart they don't even know what the heart does.
• 50:04
  Speaker 16: The truth is that the mind was created to be
• 50:08
  Speaker 16: a slave of the heart, but we've made the heart
• 50:11
  Speaker 16: a slave of the mind or the intellect. Heart centered,
• 50:15
  Speaker 16: is grounded, its clarity and again, nourishing, nurturing, edifying. It's progressive.
• 50:24
  Speaker 16: The heart is progressive. The mind gets stuck in the loop.
• 50:28
  Speaker 16: That's why we have therapy.
• 50:29
  Speaker 7: Don't nobody go.
• 50:30
  Speaker 16: To nothing to try to get their heart fixed. They
• 50:33
  Speaker 16: try to fix their head. The heart doesn't get stuck
• 50:36
  Speaker 16: in the loop. The heart remains open because the heart
• 50:40
  Speaker 16: is where God speaks. God doesn't speak in the intellect.
• 50:43
  Speaker 7: God speaks in the heart.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: Want to ask you a question about what you said
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: about women having masculine qualities. Masculine qualities but no leadership
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: or ability.
• 50:52
  Speaker 16: They want to be the boss and the diva, but
• 50:56
  Speaker 16: they don't have leadership tendencies, readers, training, leadership, not even qualities,
• 51:03
  Speaker 16: because you can have leadership qualities, but you have to
• 51:06
  Speaker 16: have the leader has to have a heart. We see
• 51:10
  Speaker 16: what it looks like when a leader doesn't have a heart.
• 51:12
  Speaker 16: Let me put, I don't look Somali.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: Is that's something you can learn or is that's something
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: that has to be in you a well.
• 51:22
  Speaker 16: I think that leaders are born, but they definitely have
• 51:29
  Speaker 16: to be trained. Some people say leaders are trained, they're
• 51:34
  Speaker 16: not born. I believe leaders are born. Some people just
• 51:37
  Speaker 16: rise into it. But there's certain qualities and characteristics that
• 51:42
  Speaker 16: an effective leader needs. And the one thing is a
• 51:46
  Speaker 16: heart for people. Another thing is a vision. Leadership isn't
• 51:50
  Speaker 16: just about ordering people around and telling them what to do.
• 51:54
  Speaker 16: A leader has to have a vision and then you
• 51:56
  Speaker 16: get people to buy into the vision and you lead
• 51:59
  Speaker 16: them in that vision in a way that's whole and
• 52:02
  Speaker 16: healthy for everybody.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: They're in corporate America all the time.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: A lot of people in leadership roles and leadership positions,
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: but they're not actually no vision.
• 52:10
  Speaker 16: They're controllers, they're demogogues, they're bullies, they're all sorts of things.
• 52:15
  Speaker 16: And whenever money is the only thing that leads you,
• 52:20
  Speaker 16: you're gonna have a pot.
• 52:21
  Speaker 10: What would you say to somebody who was, like say,
• 52:23
  Speaker 10: in a workplace or in a relationship that wants that
• 52:26
  Speaker 10: work relationship or real relationship to work right.
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: One of the exercises you did on the first.
• 52:32
  Speaker 10: Episode, which was from What twenty fourteen I Love It,
• 52:36
  Speaker 10: was you brought everybody to a department store and you
• 52:39
  Speaker 10: made everybody shop for each other. You buy this person outfit,
• 52:41
  Speaker 10: you buy this person, Yeah, and then when you did,
• 52:42
  Speaker 10: you said, well, why did you buy that person at?
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: How do you look at them?
• 52:47
  Speaker 10: So what would you advise for a couple or even
• 52:50
  Speaker 10: somebody working to do to try to fix it because
• 52:53
  Speaker 10: you can't be there or they can't afford you.
• 52:55
  Speaker 16: Well, they can read my book because in spiritual hygiene,
• 53:00
  Speaker 16: spiritual hygiene for relationships, spiritual hygiene for parenting, and spiritual hygiene.
• 53:05
  Speaker 7: For the workplace, here's the thing in any relationship. Three things.
• 53:08
  Speaker 7: Number one, tell the truth.
• 53:12
  Speaker 16: One of the reasons our relationships are dying and drying
• 53:15
  Speaker 16: up is because we lie about everything. We lie about
• 53:17
  Speaker 16: what we fear, we lie about what we want. Sometimes
• 53:20
  Speaker 16: it's not a conscious lie, it's a lie driven by fear,
• 53:24
  Speaker 16: the fear of losing, the fear of being harmed. So
• 53:27
  Speaker 16: we don't want to be vulnerable. But in order for
• 53:30
  Speaker 16: anything to grow and thrive, you gotta have some truth.
• 53:33
  Speaker 16: The other thing is accountability. All the stuff that we're
• 53:37
  Speaker 16: not seeing in the world today, tell it truth, Be accountable,
• 53:41
  Speaker 16: don't blame and project own your stuff, own it and
• 53:47
  Speaker 16: be accountable for every choice, every word, every action, and
• 53:53
  Speaker 16: know what you're bringing to the table.
• 53:55
  Speaker 7: Particularly in the workplace.
• 53:57
  Speaker 16: People go to work to make money. People go to
• 54:00
  Speaker 16: work to you know, very few people go to work
• 54:03
  Speaker 16: to serve. So what do you bring into the table that.
• 54:08
  Speaker 7: You want something in return? Give me, give me, give me,
• 54:11
  Speaker 7: give me, give me. What do you bring into the table?
• 54:13
  Speaker 16: So I think that if we did that in relationships,
• 54:17
  Speaker 16: if we did that in the workplace, we have a
• 54:19
  Speaker 16: lot more respect than honor. For if I can't believe
• 54:23
  Speaker 16: that your mother, your grandmother didn't die again for the
• 54:28
  Speaker 16: third time.
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: How you look at me? Because you only die once?
• 54:37
  Speaker 7: If you know, where do.
• 54:40
  Speaker 16: You do somebody in the face and believe that what
• 54:43
  Speaker 16: they're telling you is the truth, that they're not trying
• 54:46
  Speaker 16: to take you down or get something from you, or
• 54:49
  Speaker 16: it's can we stay?
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: I want to stay here with the spiritual hygiene. First
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: of all, I love to type a little book. What
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: is spiritual hygiene and how do people tend to it?
• 54:58
  Speaker 16: It's the daily, daily commitment and practice of clearing your mind,
• 55:03
  Speaker 16: of cleaning your heart, of strengthening your spirit. It's not
• 55:07
  Speaker 16: a one time thing. It's a practice. Your spirit has
• 55:11
  Speaker 16: to be maintained. Like your teeth, you know. A people
• 55:15
  Speaker 16: brush their teeth every day and go years without an
• 55:20
  Speaker 16: examination of their own thoughts. They got fungus in their mind.
• 55:26
  Speaker 16: Many people are emotionally constipated, still bad about mad about
• 55:31
  Speaker 16: something happened in fifty six.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: How do you clean that up?
• 55:34
  Speaker 7: You brush your hair, you wash your whuha, you know,
• 55:39
  Speaker 7: but you don't clean your spirit, your heart, your mind.
• 55:42
  Speaker 16: So spiritual hygiene is the daily practice of clearing your mind,
• 55:48
  Speaker 16: your heart, your soul, your inner life, so that your
• 55:52
  Speaker 16: outer life can have a different appearance.
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: So what about the people who prayed?
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: They go to therapy, they meditate, they sage, but they
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: still stay toxic.
• 56:01
  Speaker 7: Like, what's the prayer? What is the prayer?
• 56:04
  Speaker 16: Most people beg they don't pray, you know, and all
• 56:10
  Speaker 16: of that is good, But what's your relationship? What is
• 56:13
  Speaker 16: your relationship with God's source, creative spirit of your understanding?
• 56:17
  Speaker 16: What is your relationship? God doesn't want your you know,
• 56:21
  Speaker 16: tithes and service only what is the relationship? And most people,
• 56:27
  Speaker 16: many people, I won't say most, I'll say many. Many
• 56:30
  Speaker 16: people learn the function and the doing of the prayer,
• 56:35
  Speaker 16: but they don't have the presence in the prayer.
• 56:39
  Speaker 7: They don't have the relationship with the everything they're praying too.
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: Why I didn't. I grew up in the church.
• 56:46
  Speaker 16: You know, I'll tell you a real funny story. They
• 56:48
  Speaker 16: were trying to baptize me. I must have been five
• 56:51
  Speaker 16: or six in the Apostolic church.
• 56:54
  Speaker 7: You know that's.
• 56:56
  Speaker 16: That's everything's a sin, yes, rolling your living a sin. Anyway,
• 57:01
  Speaker 16: they're getting ready to baptize me, and you know, they
• 57:03
  Speaker 16: donkey down in the water and stuff, and they say
• 57:05
  Speaker 16: to me, will you take do you accept Jesus Christ
• 57:08
  Speaker 16: as your Lord and save you. Now this is way
• 57:10
  Speaker 16: back when that's how old I am. When Jesus was
• 57:13
  Speaker 16: still on the cross with the little droplets of blood
• 57:16
  Speaker 16: on his hands, I mean, the brilliant child, I look
• 57:19
  Speaker 16: up and not say who him?
• 57:21
  Speaker 7: He can't helt.
• 57:25
  Speaker 16: You know I got beat into tomorrow. You know I
• 57:28
  Speaker 16: said him, he can't help me, because you know he's
• 57:36
  Speaker 16: died off the cross.
• 57:37
  Speaker 7: Now you don't see it. But we were fed religion.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: We were told what to do.
• 57:41
  Speaker 16: We were taught to build a relationship. And it took
• 57:44
  Speaker 16: me a long time to know that it wasn't about
• 57:47
  Speaker 16: the doing of it. It was about the being in relationship,
• 57:51
  Speaker 16: in the presence, being present, in the prayer, being still
• 57:55
  Speaker 16: and knowing.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: When did you learn to pray? And that big.
• 57:59
  Speaker 7: When the megan wasn't working, I just go And then
• 58:05
  Speaker 7: I said, okay, what am I doing wrong?
• 58:09
  Speaker 16: I'm I'm begging and you're not paying attention, and this
• 58:13
  Speaker 16: is not the way of God is supposed to respond.
• 58:17
  Speaker 7: When I learned two things, how to be still and
• 58:23
  Speaker 7: how to know.
• 58:25
  Speaker 16: How to be still within my mind my heart spiritual hygiene,
• 58:30
  Speaker 16: and how to know when I was in the press
• 58:34
  Speaker 16: not when I was reaching out, but when I was
• 58:37
  Speaker 16: turning in, and that was it for instead of going
• 58:41
  Speaker 16: out going I remember you did the.
• 58:43
  Speaker 17: You had the really big daddy list daughter segments that
• 58:46
  Speaker 17: you would do and he would talk about the uns
• 58:49
  Speaker 17: like the things that they need to like for the
• 58:50
  Speaker 17: words they need to know, like Daddy's gone, and it's
• 58:52
  Speaker 17: the reality of like moving forward from and I remember
• 58:56
  Speaker 17: my trigger. But I used to watch the show because
• 58:58
  Speaker 17: me and my dad at that time, it was like
• 59:00
  Speaker 17: early on in us trying to figure out, Okay, he's
• 59:03
  Speaker 17: new back into my life. How do I feel? Do
• 59:05
  Speaker 17: I have questions? And I got to a point where
• 59:07
  Speaker 17: I was like, all right, you weren't here. Here's where
• 59:10
  Speaker 17: my life is. Like I don't want to be a
• 59:11
  Speaker 17: victim or like a product of that. I want to
• 59:15
  Speaker 17: make sure she understands, but you're a serious Your series
• 59:19
  Speaker 17: helped me though, because my mom was one of those
• 59:21
  Speaker 17: people that was like very like she just acts like
• 59:23
  Speaker 17: it didn't happen. You were You acknowledged that it happened,
• 59:26
  Speaker 17: but you didn't let people live in it. So it
• 59:28
  Speaker 17: helped me to realize, like, Okay, what are we going
• 59:31
  Speaker 17: to do here? Like what are we going to do
• 59:33
  Speaker 17: with the relationship or what are we going to do
• 59:34
  Speaker 17: with yourself and how you feel about that and if
• 59:37
  Speaker 17: it's not accepted from him or responded to him the
• 59:40
  Speaker 17: way you want, you just you can only control yourself.
• 59:43
  Speaker 7: Yeah, because you get to choose and he gets to choose.
• 59:46
  Speaker 7: And sometimes the shame of it, the guilt of it.
• 59:49
  Speaker 7: A lot of Dad's moms. People can't show up.
• 59:52
  Speaker 16: Husbands who cheat come back and they can never get
• 59:54
  Speaker 16: it together, or wives because did you know wives were cheating?
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, black men do cheap, but boy.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 7: Knows what's growing.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 16: Yeah, But you know, my hope, my prayer, and I
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 16: appreciate so many people are so excited about the show,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 16: about the book, and may my legacy be if nothing else,
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 16: that I gave people skills and tools to take responsibility
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 16: for themselves because the world we're in right now, the
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 16: mess that we're in, is because we were anticipating somebody
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 16: else doing for us what we needed to do for ourselves,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 16: and so we got to do the work.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 7: You have to do your work.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: Accountability is a hard concept for a lot of people
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: to grasp.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 16: Awareness, accountability and integrity, integrity where your.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 7: Mind, your heart and what you do are all online.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 16: Often people think one thing feels something and do something else.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 16: Get an integrity, line it up and be willing to
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 16: piss people off to maintain your own integrity. Honor yourself.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 16: Don't set yourself on fire to keep other people warm.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 16: Don't demiolote like that, Take responsibility and just embrace everybody
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 16: in the process.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: You always say healing isn't pretty.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: Why do people romanticize spirituality but reject the mess that's required.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: To actually evolve?
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 16: Intellectualizing the spirit like people think spiritual people shouldn't get angry.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 16: I'm from Brooklyn. I don't get angry. I get pissed
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 16: the f off, and I'm coming for you. Okay, I'm
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 16: all right, you know what I'm talking about. I grew
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 16: up with the bodega on the corner, Okay, So I
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 16: just don't do that. I'm responsible for myself when I
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 16: do it. If I do it, and I don't stay
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 16: stuck there, and that's not going to become an identity
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 16: for me. Let me see you abuse a child. I'm
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 16: coming for you, all guns drawn, cussing like a sailor,
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 16: and hit you in your head, punch you right in
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 16: your throat, okay.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 7: Disrespect a woman in my presence. I'm coming through you know.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 16: So, even though I'm a deeply spiritual person, there's sometimes
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 16: when you have to again.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 7: Throw cold water in somebody's face. But people want to
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 7: intellectualize spirituality.
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 16: Oh, you have to be kind and loving, Yes, you
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 16: do all the Sometimes you are human and it's okay
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 16: in terms of it being healing, not being pretty. It's
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 16: because most of us are not aware of the depth
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 16: of healing that is required and not aware. We think
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 16: it's just if you would behave or if they would
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 16: come back, or if they would say I'm sorry, that
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 16: it would be okay. It's so much deeper than that,
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 16: so much deeper, and most people are afraid to go in.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 16: And when I say most people, I'm not generalizing. I'm
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 16: speaking about in terms of the years that I've been
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 16: doing this work and what I've seen, what I've seen.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 16: Don't want to go with that, don't want to look
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 16: at with that, don't want to do the spiritual hygiene?
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, is there a difference between being spiritually
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: clean and being spiritually sterile?
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: And what I mean by that?
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: Can we ever over sanitize ourselves out of just human connections,
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: not that I don't know.
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 16: Spiritually clean, you're still among everybody. If you're not connected,
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 16: then you're not spiritual at all.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 7: Because the deepest part of spirituality is connected.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 16: So I don't know about spiritually sterile. Let me write
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 16: that down, because you know, I forget.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: Don't even know that.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 2: Some people try to, like you said, they try to
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: set so many boundaries, and they intellectualized spirituality to think
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: that they gotta be away from people and be apart
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: from people.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: That to me, that's not But some of them do.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 7: I mean, look at the monks.
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: Some of them.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 7: That's their mission, that's their ministry, that's what they do.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 16: They go out there. I'm not I'm not on that committee.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 16: I'm not on that committee. I'm I'm on the people committee.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 7: But but spiritually sterile, I don't know. That's a good
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 7: thank you for that.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: That'll be my next one.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: I love spiritual hygie man. There's a rapper named Dgola.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: He had a song and I call it a Negro
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: spiritual car ain't gonna let up. And in the song
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: he said, get yourself together, go get your brain a bath,
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: go to church, start listening, get on the right path.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 16: Spirit, and I you know, I'm really for me. The
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 16: greatest thing was to see how far I've come, because
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 16: I wasn't spirit actually clean, I wasn't. And to see
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 16: how far I've come, and and look at the experiences
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 16: that I've had, the divorce, the death of my partner,
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 16: my my losing two daughters, you know, all of it,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 16: all of it. And to see how far I've come.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 16: You know, you can't fall off the floor, so I
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 16: was on the floor. So to see how far I've
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 16: come from how far down I was, it's humbling. It's
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 16: really humbling because millions didn't make it. Thank you for
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 16: joining us, thank you for having me.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 7: And can I say this? First of all, you are
• 1:05:39

• 1:05:49

• 1:08:11
  Speaker 23: I was in a relationship for five years and it
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 23: was the worst of the worst. The breakup was horrible.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 8: I ended up with nothing.

  Speaker 23: I had to leave the apartment. It was just starting over.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 8: I understand where she's coming from. You know what I'm saying, Like,
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 8: it's hard to trust someone when, like you know, if
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 8: it doesn't end well, what's going to happen? With the
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 8: leaves and then you have things invested. What if you
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 8: don't get the things back?
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 7: So why did you get married again?
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: Baby?
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 5: Don't really sound like you were ready for that because
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 5: you still hurt from the five year relationship. You know, your.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 23: Relationship it healed, It was actually ended three years ago.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 23: And I actually met this person a year ago, and
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 23: he actually league is slowly and accepting of what I
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 23: went through. So he's actually allowing.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 7: Me to be me.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 10: So y'all to live with each other, and y'all not
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 10: moving with each other. You're gonna keep it that way, separate.
• 1:09:11

  Speaker 8: Gonna move in. But I understand where she's coming from.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 23: I'm a little stand now.

  Speaker 1: Yeah, is he scared to move in with you because
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: you Latino at a time like this? My god, literally.
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 8: He is capable of It's just like I said, you
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 8: have to really kind of know the person. But I
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 8: also took time to heal.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: I think, what's the race? What's the race of your husband?
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 23: Well, he's white, he's.
• 1:09:45

• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: little scared. He's scared to move in with you. You know,
• 1:09:53

• 1:10:29
  Speaker 5: of therapy to get over you being scared to live
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 5: with your spouse. I mean, because it's just still like

  Speaker 5: a long time to you, but you're taking that into
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 5: your new marriage, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 23: Yes, And you know what's so crazy, Charlotte made It's crazy.

• 1:10:53
  Speaker 8: I always used to be like, oh my god, I

• 1:11:01
  Speaker 8: Like why that's his personality?
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 6: But it's so crazy.

  Speaker 5: what she went through with her son's father, and guarantee
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 5: you that.

  Speaker 1: I feel like people say that until they find the
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: right person. Exactly.
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: That's why that right person you want to be with
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: that person twenty four seven three sixty five.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: That's the whole beauty of marriage.

• 1:12:14
  Speaker 5: not good for us. We're staying it too long, and
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 5: that's how you end up hurt.
• 1:12:19
