- 0:24Speaker 3: of us, we're friends with Sheryl. So I even took
- 0:27Speaker 3: it and I thought that they picked on her out
- 0:29Speaker 3: of all the people on there. Seemed like everybody had
- 0:31Speaker 3: a shot for her, Like, what the what was that about?
- 0:34Speaker 1: Like that man, it was knives out. I don't I
- 0:38Speaker 1: think she had herself. Well, I know she bust she
- 0:41Speaker 1: she killed when she got up. Yeah, to me, I'm
- 0:44Speaker 1: not gonna be in the company of somebody I don't care,
- 0:47Speaker 1: especially in a professional environment where I know someone has
- 0:52Speaker 1: a disdain for me.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Uh, Like I could see Pete Davis as a cool dude.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Man, I get you know, it ain't about I can't
- 1:00Speaker 1: I can tell I can't tell people what to do.
- 1:01Speaker 1: I tell you, I'm I'm gonna remove myself from a situation.
- 1:05Speaker 1: I don't like people who like Trump. I don't like them,
- 1:09Speaker 1: and I won't pretend to. I don't like people who
- 1:10Speaker 1: have helped him. I don't like people who speak well
- 1:13Speaker 1: of him. I don't like any of it at all.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Anybody who knows me knows that I ain't in the
- 1:19Speaker 1: room with you. I don't smile at you, I don't
- 1:20Speaker 1: laugh at you. I don't play with you. Your people
- 1:23Speaker 1: are at war with people that look like me, period,
- 1:27Speaker 1: and giving people like that a platform makes it easier
- 1:30Speaker 1: to think it's all fun and games, and it ain't.
- 1:34Speaker 1: They're trying to dehumanize you. They locking people love and
- 1:37Speaker 1: throwing them at lock and come on, man, I'm not
- 1:39Speaker 1: fail to do that. I don't understand how I do that.
- 1:42Speaker 1: In Nazi rally, was on the same stage as dude
- 1:44Speaker 1: from right Along Too. I don't get it. I don't,
- 1:49Speaker 1: I don't, but you know that's what they do.
- 1:51Speaker 2: People do.
- 1:52Speaker 1: I'm like, you could do it, and I don't have
- 1:54Speaker 1: a problem, and I will fight for I will fight
- 1:57Speaker 1: for your right to be able to do it. But
- 2:00Speaker 1: how remove myself from that pot. I don't get it.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I don't get it. And if you if you saw
- 2:05Speaker 1: those people on there and you watch, I don't know
- 2:07Speaker 1: how you could be offended.
- 2:08Speaker 2: You would you think it was gonna happen.
- 2:10Speaker 4: I just feel like it was. It's it's money, it's greed.
- 2:13Speaker 5: I think that Kevin, you know, maybe he didn't care
- 2:17Speaker 5: what platform he was giving to these people that it's
- 2:20Speaker 5: obvious because they make no secret about what side they're on. Uh,
- 2:24Speaker 5: and maybe for him the payday look better then, you know.
- 2:28Speaker 5: I guess his pledge or loyalty to you know, the community.
- 2:32Speaker 5: I could never sit and know that someone doesn't like
- 2:35Speaker 5: me and give them the room to make fun of
- 2:39Speaker 5: me or tell jokes about me or any of my friends.
- 2:41Speaker 5: You're not gonna You're not gonna play in my face.
- 2:43Speaker 5: I'm not gonna let that happen. Yeah you could. He
- 2:46Speaker 5: thought it was okay, So I mean, you know, and
- 2:49Speaker 5: I guess what he's getting my wage out of it
- 2:51Speaker 5: because everyone's talking about it.
- 2:52Speaker 4: It's everywhere.
- 2:53Speaker 5: So if you haven't seen it, I'm sure you'll run
- 2:55Speaker 5: along the Netflix and watch it, and I'm sure he'll
- 2:57Speaker 5: get points on the back end or whatever. The case
- 2:59Speaker 5: may be. I'm it's just not going to sell my soul.
- 3:01Speaker 5: When I saw the lineup, I knew what would happen. Yeah,
- 3:04Speaker 5: when I saw who was on it, I knew exactly
- 3:05Speaker 5: what happened. I knew we'd be here racist doing it.
- 3:09Speaker 2: And I don't care what you say to me. You can't.
- 3:11Speaker 1: I don't care how what with iteration it comes in.
- 3:15Speaker 1: You could be a racist in the comedian.
- 3:18Speaker 4: Well, there are a lot of them who are.
- 3:20Speaker 2: We don't do it.
- 3:22Speaker 1: What I'm not feel ready to do is let you
- 3:25Speaker 1: is give it any of my energy, participation, or life.
- 3:29Speaker 1: So it is a dal usually show your twenty twenty sixty.
- 3:34Speaker 1: I'm going to be at the Chicago Improv in Schamberg
- 3:37Speaker 1: this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so come check me out
- 3:39Speaker 1: if you're taking a notion. I love people. I defended
- 3:42Speaker 1: this is true. I defended don Imus for having an opinion.
- 3:47Speaker 1: I've defended John Rocker for having opinion. I've defended Mia
- 3:49Speaker 1: Richards for having dependent I defended Bill Maher. So I'm
- 3:53Speaker 1: gon say I don't have to like it. I don't
- 3:56Speaker 1: have to like it now. I think we're in a
- 3:58Speaker 1: different time right now. I really do think that that
- 4:00Speaker 1: the MAGA and and those Republicans, the Supreme Court, and
- 4:03Speaker 1: the congressional members of Congress are at war with black people.
- 4:08Speaker 1: I believe it. It's not hyperbolic. Well, I mean, there's
- 4:11Speaker 1: evidence to prove that they are, so anybody on that side,
- 4:15Speaker 1: I don't understand how a prominent person would give them
- 4:18Speaker 1: light anything like that. Normally roads were about people that
- 4:22Speaker 1: like you getting together and having fun at your expense.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Yeah, not deriding you. Not the human you know.
- 4:29Speaker 4: I'm calling him and asking, I don't what's going on
- 4:31Speaker 4: with you?
- 4:32Speaker 3: Ken again?
- 4:33Speaker 2: I mean you your bread, baby boy, it's your bread.
- 4:36Speaker 2: I don't care nothing about that.
- 4:38Speaker 1: I remember we were someone who was around and uh
- 4:41Speaker 1: what was it what we were were? If somebody does
- 4:44Speaker 1: something I think helps this administration, I dontly have a
- 4:47Speaker 1: disdain for them. Who was the kid we were? I
- 4:50Speaker 1: was doing Big Boy and he walked in and they
- 4:51Speaker 1: were like, do you know what I mean? I'm like,
- 4:52Speaker 1: not at all.
- 4:53Speaker 4: I don't know who was the kid?
- 4:58Speaker 2: Skip you? He knew you.
- 5:00Speaker 1: You can say, man, oh boy want to meet you,
- 5:02Speaker 1: and you want to meet and he was standing right there.
- 5:04Speaker 2: It is not at all, baby boy, I know I don't.
- 5:08Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's where we are though in this
- 5:10Speaker 5: particular time, is that you're you're you're picking size.
- 5:13Speaker 2: I have pick one.
- 5:14Speaker 5: And the things that you do, the things that you say,
- 5:16Speaker 5: the places you go, and the people that you hang
- 5:17Speaker 5: around with.
- 5:18Speaker 4: I think you're choosing. I don't think. I know you're
- 5:20Speaker 4: choosing such.
- 5:21Speaker 3: I can tell you about d l Man just time
- 5:23Speaker 3: we've been together. We've been together for years now, Man,
- 5:26Speaker 3: and I know you live your creed. And when I
- 5:27Speaker 3: say that, when I say that, you can take this
- 5:30Speaker 3: out of it. You don't hang around a dude that
- 5:32Speaker 3: does not take care of his family just because the
- 5:34Speaker 3: character you like. That kind of character I don't mess with.
- 5:37Speaker 3: And I know that from being around you.
- 5:38Speaker 2: You could be a drunk drug addict. Yeah, that you can.
- 5:41Speaker 6: You cannot take.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Family like that.
- 5:45Speaker 1: You can get drug and be a drug and l Lord,
- 5:47Speaker 1: you get your after work and take care of your kids.
- 5:49Speaker 1: I'm all right, live your creed, all right, you do.
- 5:53Speaker 1: I just I think I think this is the times
- 5:55Speaker 1: of too certain. I think that everything is urgent, and
- 5:59Speaker 1: that playing around with people who helped this happen and
- 6:03Speaker 1: continue to normalize, continue to normalize.
- 6:08Speaker 2: George Floyd. That event changed things.
- 6:12Speaker 1: It changed things, and that is the guy you keep
- 6:16Speaker 1: coming back to because you know how black people feel
- 6:18Speaker 1: about it. That's seven years ago. What comedia is doing
- 6:23Speaker 1: a joke about that had something happened seven years ago?
- 6:27Speaker 2: That's seven years ago.
- 6:29Speaker 1: And you do that in front of all these ings
- 6:31Speaker 1: in Inglewood because you got a trip slip from the
- 6:33Speaker 1: dude from Jumanji.
- 6:34Speaker 2: That's what happened.
- 6:36Speaker 1: If you're tell us something, what comedian is doing a
- 6:39Speaker 1: brand new act about something that happened seven years ago.
- 6:41Speaker 5: Well, the other thing is we clearly know they were
- 6:45Speaker 5: reading from the prompter, right because Cheryl made that very
- 6:48Speaker 5: clear when she said rolled to keep rolling the prompter.
- 6:50Speaker 5: So you know that it went through a lot of
- 6:53Speaker 5: people and they said, yeah, this is great.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Awesome, you know what I'm saying, and you know what
- 7:01Speaker 1: this is not. I can, just like everybody else, I
- 7:04Speaker 1: can give my opinion. I'm not once called for anybody
- 7:07Speaker 1: to boycott anybody or that I'm telling you how I
- 7:09Speaker 1: feel about something. That dude wants to tell that joke
- 7:13Speaker 1: because he knows how incendiary it is for black people.
- 7:17Speaker 1: And when shere was talk about if he just said
- 7:20Speaker 1: it would have been problems in there.
- 7:22Speaker 2: Right, So were you off anybody? Kevin Heart Rose, We're
- 7:25Speaker 2: gonna go do phones man.
- 7:28Speaker 7: That is a bunch of crop man from this man.
- 7:31Speaker 8: But y'all meaning to tell me, y'all didn't know that
- 7:35Speaker 8: little aunt knee high to the curb wasn't gonna start
- 7:38Speaker 8: selling his soul. That that was foreseeing and foreshadowed a
- 7:42Speaker 8: long time ago. Kevin Hart has no allegiance to nothing.
- 7:46Speaker 7: You should hear. Even when he was telling us, you know,
- 7:49Speaker 7: he first was getting on getting, you know, getting his
- 7:52Speaker 7: accoladers and people starting to know him and knew who
- 7:55Speaker 7: he was. His early jokes told you that he I'm
- 8:00Speaker 7: gonna sell his soul to the devil. He ain't never
- 8:02Speaker 7: been funny to me, you know, He's just always been
- 8:06Speaker 7: a comedic coon.
- 8:08Speaker 2: That's what he is, a comedic coon.
- 8:10Speaker 9: My thing is, it's not always about race. You got
- 8:13Speaker 9: to look at the guy as a comedian. A whole
- 8:15Speaker 9: bunch of comedians tell dad jokes and fell nine times
- 8:19Speaker 9: out of ten. When this guy is doing his little
- 8:21Speaker 9: fifteen minutes of comedy, he's in front of an all
- 8:24Speaker 9: white crowd. He just didn't read the room. And maybe
- 8:27Speaker 9: he is racist. So what, you know, they have a
- 8:30Speaker 9: right to their opinion. We got a right to call
- 8:33Speaker 9: them honkeys, crackers and.
- 8:34Speaker 4: White trash to even score.
- 8:37Speaker 9: Maybe he just not a good comedian. He sucks a
- 8:39Speaker 9: lot of them. Do you know that white people have
- 8:42Speaker 9: a different type of humor than black people? Things that
- 8:45Speaker 9: make them laugh don't make us laugh.
- 8:48Speaker 7: Not only were the racist jokes over the top, he
- 8:51Speaker 7: also allowed Rock.
- 8:53Speaker 10: To degrade him by asking him to sit on his.
- 8:56Speaker 7: Lap and shuffle his nipples.
- 8:58Speaker 11: Totally ridiculous.
- 9:00Speaker 9: It was crazy.
- 9:01Speaker 7: I mean the fact that Kat Williams came out. I
- 9:05Speaker 7: think Kat Williams pretended to make amends with him because
- 9:09Speaker 7: he knew everybody was gonna see Kevin Hart's true color
- 9:13Speaker 7: and he wasn't gonna have to say anything else.
- 9:15Speaker 2: So Junie, you were saying something off that? What were saying?
- 9:18Speaker 12: Yeah, No, I'm not. I wasn't offended because I hadn't watched.
- 9:22Speaker 12: My wife had asked me actually to watch. You know, Hey,
- 9:24Speaker 12: you got a new Kevin a Heart special. You want
- 9:27Speaker 12: to watch it?
- 9:27Speaker 6: You know?
- 9:28Speaker 12: And my thing is, you know you've always said if
- 9:31Speaker 12: it's something that offends you or something you don't like,
- 9:33Speaker 12: just don't watch it. And I've never really been a big,
- 9:37Speaker 12: big Kevin Heart fan, So you know I turned it
- 9:39Speaker 12: down from right then and there. I didn't even know
- 9:41Speaker 12: who else was going to be on the show, So no,
- 9:44Speaker 12: I'm not. I'm not go to a kill Tony show
- 9:46Speaker 12: and see how soldiers you are? Go to it, go
- 9:48Speaker 12: to it, go to see.
- 9:49Speaker 6: What did I don't even have to you know what
- 9:51Speaker 6: I mean.
- 9:51Speaker 2: Everybody knows what he is. Everybody knows what Yeah, you
- 9:54Speaker 2: think that's funny, I don't, right.
- 9:56Speaker 6: No doubt. So you know, if you don't like it
- 9:59Speaker 6: and don't look at.
- 10:00Speaker 1: And I tell you what you messed wrong, have your
- 10:03Speaker 1: situations in the wrong place, you'll get your ass.
- 10:05Speaker 2: Good and beat out here.
- 10:06Speaker 1: Oh for sure, everybody ain't joking like that. Everybody ain't
- 10:10Speaker 1: play like that time Angie Show said that about Kendrick.
- 10:12Speaker 1: All right, all right, and watch my mouth, watch the mouth. Now,
- 10:17Speaker 1: we don't play around. There's certain things you don't play with.
- 10:21Speaker 12: But even my wife didn't think it was funny though,
- 10:23Speaker 12: because I asked about it, because when you made that
- 10:26Speaker 12: you alluded to the specific comedians that was on the show.
- 10:30Speaker 12: I asked her, I said, well, what did you think
- 10:32Speaker 12: about it? You know, she said, well, really it was
- 10:34Speaker 12: kind of whack.
- 10:35Speaker 6: She said. You know, after about thirty five minutes into it,
- 10:38Speaker 6: she just turned. She just stopped watching that.
- 10:40Speaker 1: Man, Hey, man, I don't need people to have excuse
- 10:43Speaker 1: to talk bad about me.
- 10:44Speaker 2: I got a face, I got a Facebook page.
- 10:46Speaker 13: I don't need.
- 10:48Speaker 2: If I wanted to hear people say bad stuff about
- 10:52Speaker 2: black people, I read my comments. I ain't got it.
- 10:55Speaker 2: I would.
- 10:55Speaker 12: I guess we really post racial an equal opportunity.
- 11:00Speaker 2: It's don't under I don't.
- 11:01Speaker 1: I man, I think that to me, these are these
- 11:06Speaker 1: little microaggressions that people allow in the name of transaction
- 11:10Speaker 1: and commerce that that I think is disgusting.
- 11:15Speaker 9: I do.
- 11:15Speaker 1: I think it's discussing the question we're asking, where you're
- 11:17Speaker 1: offended by the cabin heart Rose, we're going to the phones.
- 11:20Speaker 13: I wasn't offended at all. It's comedy, and I'm more
- 11:24Speaker 13: so upset with deal Hewley being a set out to
- 11:26Speaker 13: black people. It's a huge disservice to the community because
- 11:29Speaker 13: the bob line is we need real leaders that's gonna
- 11:31Speaker 13: step up and call all this out. They use that
- 11:34Speaker 13: platform to try to talk down on the current president.
- 11:38Speaker 13: Now this is the trades the part about because water.
- 11:40Speaker 13: This was the democracy, and the democracy you got a
- 11:42Speaker 13: winner and a loser. When you lose, you don't go
- 11:45Speaker 13: boardcot and have a King's rally. When the Cowboys lose
- 11:48Speaker 13: the playoffs, you know, the super Bowl, they don't boardcot.
- 11:51Speaker 13: You know. So this world that we're.
- 11:53Speaker 2: Living in is gone Haywire.
- 11:56Speaker 11: I mean, don't get me wrong, some of the some
- 11:59Speaker 11: of his jokes, some of their jokes were definitely edgy,
- 12:02Speaker 11: but I think when it came to the worst of them,
- 12:05Speaker 11: like with Shane Gillis, he said he called Cheryl.
- 12:09Speaker 10: Before he did the joke about her husband, and he
- 12:12Speaker 10: was definitely pushing the limit. And people can have their
- 12:15Speaker 10: judgment on it, but at the end of the day,
- 12:16Speaker 10: I think it was a roast of a comedian, and
- 12:19Speaker 10: most comedians always pushed the edge, especially when they're with
- 12:23Speaker 10: each other, so you can you can say it was racist,
- 12:26Speaker 10: but I think it was just seeing how far they
- 12:29Speaker 10: could go in. In some cases, yeah, they might have
- 12:31Speaker 10: pushed it, but it's really up to what you think.
- 12:34Speaker 10: But me myself, I'm an amateur stand up comedian and
- 12:38Speaker 10: I would say there was definitely worse things that could be.
- 12:42Speaker 11: Said, but I was surprised. They said that.
- 12:46Speaker 5: Jasu and you, you were you offended, I was, I
- 12:49Speaker 5: didn't really well, To be honest, I did.
- 12:56Speaker 4: With you anyway.
- 13:00Speaker 8: Exactly.
- 13:02Speaker 5: That is the difference. I did not watch the roast. However,
- 13:06Speaker 5: once I began to see thanks to social media, you
- 13:09Speaker 5: don't have to sit and watch an entire anything. You
- 13:11Speaker 5: can catch glimpses of it and make a decision as
- 13:14Speaker 5: to whether or not you want to watch it. And
- 13:16Speaker 5: when I began to see clips and I saw some
- 13:18Speaker 5: of the things they said about Sheryl Underwood, and I
- 13:20Speaker 5: saw the joke about George Floyd, I instantly knew, you know,
- 13:23Speaker 5: this is probably not something I want to watch. I
- 13:24Speaker 5: don't I can't get that time back, and I don't
- 13:26Speaker 5: want to sit and be full anxious.
- 13:29Speaker 4: And anxiety and mad. I was like, you know what, life.
- 13:32Speaker 2: Is too short.
- 13:32Speaker 4: No thank you.
- 13:33Speaker 1: I watched a little bit, a little bitish mess up
- 13:36Speaker 1: a room, yeah a little bit, Yeah, no thank you.
- 13:39Speaker 5: I just went back to watching Testament, which made me
- 13:41Speaker 5: meant to and I'm determined I don't have a pristine spirit.
- 13:47Speaker 5: I watched a lot of negative stuff.
- 13:48Speaker 4: I too, Yeah, we know you.
- 13:50Speaker 1: I watch a lot of negatives yeah. I mean, I
- 13:53Speaker 1: don't like those dudes like that at all. I don't
- 13:57Speaker 1: like people who like them at all. When somebody's talking
- 14:01Speaker 1: to me, I have to remove myself when people Oh no, no,
- 14:03Speaker 1: let me don't talk to you, baby boy.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Yeah, nope, can't do it.
- 14:08Speaker 6: I don't.
- 14:09Speaker 1: My spirit is not a smudgeproof, but it's certain things
