- 3:11Speaker 4: I am in Atlanta, lations Young because we are here

- 3:22Speaker 4: to get your tickets. It's a down one production. It's
- 3:24Speaker 4: going to be a fantastic show. We did press at
- 3:27Speaker 4: B one of three this morning. But let's get past
- 3:29Speaker 4: all of it. Let's get to the get to the
- 3:31Speaker 4: get to them. So where are we starting by? Because
- 3:34Speaker 4: you know, I think I want to start today, Bobby.
- 3:36Speaker 4: I was just listening to all of this, so I
- 3:39Speaker 4: kept wondering, why have the Proud Boys been so quiet?
- 3:42Speaker 4: I mean, we've seen some of those protests. Nazis so
- 3:45Speaker 4: cod supposed Nazis. They don't even know what a damn
- 3:48Speaker 4: Nazi really is. They just found something to follow on
- 3:50Speaker 4: the internet that made them feel whole as a person.
- 3:53Speaker 4: And they were doing all these youngsters that were protesting
- 3:56Speaker 4: with their mask on through Ohio and you know little
- 3:59Speaker 4: towns like that. But everybody had been so quiet, lady,
- 4:02Speaker 4: and you know who has been loud and now Proud
- 4:04Speaker 4: is Ice. That's because come to find out that the
- 4:08Speaker 4: majority of them have now become ice workers. So they're
- 4:12Speaker 4: getting paid for their racism and hate and rhetoric. Now
- 4:17Speaker 4: that's why they so quiet. Even the leader Tori his
- 4:22Speaker 4: name is His name is Terriso, the leader of the
- 4:28Speaker 4: Proud Boys is now and one of the Ice guys,
- 4:33Speaker 4: but he's in the upper echelone of Ice. He's not
- 4:35Speaker 4: one of the Rudi poots. He has a higher up position.
- 4:38Speaker 4: That's the same one who stuck the nan nannish dialo
- 4:41Speaker 4: up his ass will smell in his face. I wonder
- 4:43Speaker 4: what he's ticking up his But why Ice? I just
- 4:45Speaker 4: want to know. I just want to know.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know.
- 4:49Speaker 4: I wanted to do the ice cube, ice tray, ice
- 4:52Speaker 4: ta ice cream ice skates.
- 4:56Speaker 2: Well, nobody else wants the job. They were giving it.
- 4:59Speaker 2: One point, they were giving you a fifty thousand sign
- 5:01Speaker 2: on bonus. So I can see that hold.
- 5:05Speaker 4: On, that was the advertisement that there was a fifty thousand.
- 5:09Speaker 4: Have you seen the discrepancy? Have you seen the discrepancies
- 5:12Speaker 4: now that a lot of the former ICE workers are
- 5:15Speaker 4: coming out and saying that they were promised to fifty
- 5:17Speaker 4: signing bonus and they have not received.
- 5:20Speaker 2: Jack Diddley nothing, No, that's everything. I mean, that's sort
- 5:24Speaker 2: of the name of the game, including.
- 5:25Speaker 4: The training that it would take to do law enforcement.
- 5:28Speaker 4: And more so than the physical hurt which they could
- 5:31Speaker 4: have shot that woman's tires last week, it is the
- 5:35Speaker 4: de escalation. These people are already angry and you give
- 5:38Speaker 4: them a weapon and immunity and tell them go go. Well,
- 5:44Speaker 4: you're just almost like police were the parking tickets. We
- 5:47Speaker 4: have a certain quota that we had to hit every month.
- 5:49Speaker 4: It's almost like they have a certain quota that they
- 5:51Speaker 4: have to kill with ice or detained or whatever they
- 5:54Speaker 4: need to do. I'm sorry, boy, what's your point?
- 5:57Speaker 2: No, no, no, I was going to say, I mean
- 5:59Speaker 2: you made two great points there. ICE's job is not
- 6:02Speaker 2: to police. It's not what their job is this there
- 6:04Speaker 2: to go in, contain and remove. That's it. So it
- 6:09Speaker 2: is the it is the police who have learned and
- 6:12Speaker 2: been trained to de escalate. And because he had to
- 6:15Speaker 2: get this administration had to get more ice on the
- 6:19Speaker 2: boots on the ground, so to speak, he cut their
- 6:22Speaker 2: training in half. He made it in resemblance of him.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Forty seven days. That's the only training they have. Twenty
- 6:30Speaker 2: seven days isn't enough to give someone a weapon and
- 6:32Speaker 2: put them on the street and highly charged areas. It
- 6:36Speaker 2: just isn't.
- 6:38Speaker 4: So.
- 6:38Speaker 2: I mean, what happened in Minnesota was I mean, it's
- 6:41Speaker 2: so tragic, but it was. There's been more since. It's
- 6:44Speaker 2: been shooting since and flash bombs thrown at vehicles with
- 6:49Speaker 2: six month olds and little babies in them. Of course,
- 6:52Speaker 2: you know they were all in the hospital with breathing
- 6:54Speaker 2: all that in What do you think is going to happen?
- 6:57Speaker 2: So they need something they need to do better because
- 6:59Speaker 2: this isn't isn't working.
- 7:00Speaker 4: It's not working at all. Bobby. You know what disgusted
- 7:03Speaker 4: me about Renee God, that whole renegold situation outside of
- 7:06Speaker 4: her blade murder from this ice guy, This this coward
- 7:10Speaker 4: was her father in law speaking out publicly like that
- 7:14Speaker 4: he didn't see any wrong with her getting I thought
- 7:16Speaker 4: that the father in law was barbaric, the ex husband,
- 7:19Speaker 4: the husband who had died speaking against this woman. This
- 7:22Speaker 4: woman lost her life because he didn't he didn't agree
- 7:24Speaker 4: with the fact that she had started dating a woman.
- 7:27Speaker 4: You have no protocol or no say so over how
- 7:29Speaker 4: somebody else is enjoying their life. You search should have
- 7:32Speaker 4: stayed in the background. I don't even know what kind
- 7:34Speaker 4: of grandfather you are. And I hope with that kind
- 7:36Speaker 4: of rhetoric and that kind of hate that he is
- 7:39Speaker 4: spewing to the world, that he does not get custody
- 7:42Speaker 4: of the grandchild because racist is a learned behavior.
- 7:46Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what he's looking for, and that's what.
- 7:48Speaker 4: He's going to teach that woman's child.
- 7:51Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what he's looking for. You know, I don't
- 7:54Speaker 2: know if she handled because we have we have no investigation, right,
- 7:57Speaker 2: we have a federal investigation that's behind doors. They made
- 8:00Speaker 2: decisions about what was what had happened within an hour
- 8:03Speaker 2: of the incident. Of course, we don't know. We didn't
- 8:07Speaker 2: have enough information. I am sure, as we have spoken
- 8:09Speaker 2: about in last week's episode, that there are going to
- 8:12Speaker 2: be even more phones that will come that will show
- 8:15Speaker 2: different angles, that will give more information. You know, she
- 8:18Speaker 2: and her wife were going from protest to protest and
- 8:22Speaker 2: filming just so they could get it on camera about
- 8:25Speaker 2: actually what was happening. Was she right to try to
- 8:29Speaker 2: block or try to interfere so she could get those films.
- 8:32Speaker 2: I don't know. That's not up to me to decide,
- 8:34Speaker 2: but she certainly didn't deserve to lose her life over it.
- 8:38Speaker 2: We need to do better.
- 8:40Speaker 4: We need to do better, Bobby. It is and we
- 8:45Speaker 4: have to. And the trauma that we were talking offline about.
- 8:48Speaker 4: I think we discussed this when they're actually happened with
- 8:50Speaker 4: we no go is that we keep seeing it every day,
- 8:52Speaker 4: just like I produced. They say, if we had to
- 8:54Speaker 4: keep watching George Floyd, we played back on us every
- 8:56Speaker 4: day and sometimes in our mindset we will fill a
- 9:00Speaker 4: like or where it was to me. It don't affect me,
- 9:02Speaker 4: it does affect you. You cannot unring that bell because
- 9:05Speaker 4: once you've seen it and that scene has been planted,
- 9:08Speaker 4: you cannot unseen. You can try as hard as you
- 9:10Speaker 4: want you to forget it, but something may happen and
- 9:13Speaker 4: it'll trigger you to relive that moment of seeing that
- 9:16Speaker 4: again over and over and over. That is dramatic to
- 9:19Speaker 4: us as American citizens, that we have to owe it
- 9:21Speaker 4: to people in general that we had to George Floyd.
- 9:24Speaker 4: We had to watch that over and over and over again.
- 9:27Speaker 4: We were not there to actually witness it, but we
- 9:29Speaker 4: did not witness it because y'all kept showing it, just
- 9:31Speaker 4: like they keep showing Renee Gold's murder from so many
- 9:35Speaker 4: different angles, Bobby, that's going to trigger somebody somewhere, especially
- 9:39Speaker 4: somebody young who don't have that mind already shaped, who
- 9:42Speaker 4: don't know who and what they are or their purpose,
- 9:45Speaker 4: and that can send them off to go do something
- 9:49Speaker 4: as bad as that, or to retaliate. You just never
- 9:51Speaker 4: know by because it is dramatic for all of us.
- 9:54Speaker 2: You know who I feel the worst for in those circumstances,
- 9:58Speaker 2: Renee Goods kids. It's out there, you know. So she
- 10:02Speaker 2: had the six year old, but I believe her other
- 10:04Speaker 2: children were a little bit older than that. You don't
- 10:06Speaker 2: think they've seen it and watch their mom get get
- 10:08Speaker 2: killed and forever that's going to be. You know, they're
- 10:11Speaker 2: going to be playing on the anniversary on the Yeah.
- 10:17Speaker 4: I feel bad for the children. But you know who
- 10:19Speaker 4: what really broke my heart the wife or the girlfriend.
- 10:22Speaker 2: She was car so she was trying to get in.
- 10:26Speaker 4: She was trying to get in.
- 10:28Speaker 2: She could have been shot because remember first one was
- 10:31Speaker 2: through the windshield. The so let's even pretend, okay, that
- 10:36Speaker 2: he really was in fear of his life. He thought
- 10:39Speaker 2: that she was going to show I can't.
- 10:40Speaker 4: I can't. My my imagination is never going to get
- 10:44Speaker 4: that small.
- 10:45Speaker 2: But put your your imagination hat on for one second,
- 10:48Speaker 2: just for one second. So he did. He does the
- 10:50Speaker 2: one shot. Okay, that so we'll say that one's legitimate.
- 10:54Speaker 2: What about the two out of the side window as
- 10:56Speaker 2: she's driving past him?
- 10:57Speaker 4: What about the tires? What about the one shot? Should
- 11:02Speaker 4: have been enough to scare me, It's enough to push
- 11:04Speaker 4: the break or or to make me really take off
- 11:07Speaker 4: because I'm in fear that you're trying to fucking kill me.
- 11:11Speaker 4: I can't. I feel bad for her because she was
- 11:14Speaker 4: standing right there, she saw her. You don't know what
- 11:16Speaker 4: kind of relationship they had. That could have been the
- 11:18Speaker 4: love of her life. And how do you get over
- 11:20Speaker 4: something like that? You know, it's just crazy, Bobby. But again,
- 11:24Speaker 4: we're still in the place now, him him going over
- 11:26Speaker 4: there here and gangster and we talking about when I
- 11:28Speaker 4: say him, were talking about the one in the in
- 11:31Speaker 4: the White House, going over there in Gangster and the
- 11:33Speaker 4: oil from Venezuela. You know who. I'm mortified by the
- 11:36Speaker 4: behind all of this whole situation, Bobby, that damn vice
- 11:40Speaker 4: president over there that has now become the president donating
- 11:43Speaker 4: her her She is, no, she's not the president. The
- 11:47Speaker 4: lady who donated her.
- 11:49Speaker 2: She's she wants she wants to spot. So what she's
- 11:51Speaker 2: doing is I always think of your expression the overplay
- 11:53Speaker 2: for the underplay, right, So that's the Maria Karina Machado.
- 11:59Speaker 2: It was that she's looking for the president's spot, so
- 12:04Speaker 2: she thinks that she'll get his backing. She's giving him something.
- 12:08Speaker 2: She's giving him a secondhand pressures.
- 12:10Speaker 4: Yes, she's given him a Nobel Priest price.
- 12:13Speaker 2: She's regifted which she can't do right. This isn't Christmas.
- 12:20Speaker 2: You're not taking something that you don't care that much
- 12:21Speaker 2: about and passing it along for something better.
- 12:24Speaker 4: Giving him the award won't give him the accolades. He
- 12:27Speaker 4: will not be respected by by the people who do.
- 12:30Speaker 2: They said, you can't flame, you can't. They came out
- 12:33Speaker 2: before she did it. She actually did.
- 12:35Speaker 4: Wait an we go back to that, but we haven't
- 12:37Speaker 4: heard that in quite some time. They said, what.
- 12:41Speaker 2: That she can't do it?
- 12:43Speaker 4: Don't you have to sweed him? Now? What is the
- 12:45Speaker 4: words I said?
- 12:46Speaker 2: Because she can't. She can't do it. You got you.
- 12:49Speaker 2: You can't take something that was given to you and
- 12:51Speaker 2: then pass it on. What happens is probably this is
- 12:54Speaker 2: my guess, the Nobel Committee could then say, Okay, if
- 12:58Speaker 2: she doesn't want it, then who else? Who's the next
- 13:01Speaker 2: person that deserves it? You conscious choose somebody else, and
- 13:05Speaker 2: you certainly can't. This is like the worst white elephant
- 13:08Speaker 2: gift at Christmas time, where you know they're passing it along.
- 13:11Speaker 2: She's just looking for something. She wants his backing so
- 13:14Speaker 2: that she could get her bottom in that in that spot,
- 13:18Speaker 2: in that that golden chariot. So I did. He's he's
- 13:25Speaker 2: too much. I mean, he's talking about back to Minnesota.
- 13:28Speaker 2: He's he's threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act because he
- 13:31Speaker 2: knows that he's the only one that can actually do it.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Although I don't know how in the world he would
- 13:36Speaker 2: meet the qualifications, but he doesn't seem to to mind.
- 13:40Speaker 2: He does it regardless. So he just does what he wants.
- 13:45Speaker 2: He's thrilled to get the to get the air her
- 13:47Speaker 2: used reward, you know, the letter or whatever she actually
- 13:50Speaker 2: handed him, or the medal, the I don't know, she's
- 13:53Speaker 2: got to a statue. He's going to meddle something.
- 13:55Speaker 4: I don't know. It's crazy, the the the audacity of
- 14:00Speaker 4: how they just do stuff and just so bold with
- 14:04Speaker 4: it and embold in with it. It's kind of like, wow, Bobby,
- 14:09Speaker 4: we have It's like the Democratic Party have given away
- 14:12Speaker 4: everything to me. They just see it. And Chuck Schumer,
- 14:15Speaker 4: I've been saying this for years. Chuck Schumer is a schmuck. Period.
- 14:21Speaker 2: That's a perfect expression for him. He is. I think
- 14:24Speaker 2: Chucks has served his time. I don't Yeah, he's not
- 14:30Speaker 2: convincing or getting people to work together or we need
- 14:35Speaker 2: him to bring down the rhetoric as well, you know
- 14:42Speaker 2: everything every expression compy. We already know this flame that
- 14:46Speaker 2: Trump is bad, we know it. We already know so.
- 14:49Speaker 2: All right, so he's bad. How are you going to
- 14:51Speaker 2: work around? How are you going to get things done?
- 14:53Speaker 2: What are you going to do to make things better
- 14:55Speaker 2: instead of just complaining about them all the time. I'm
- 14:58Speaker 2: sort of sick. I'm over the Democrat doing that. I
- 15:02Speaker 2: saw just before you and I got on. I think
- 15:04Speaker 2: I told you I was trying to catch up on
- 15:06Speaker 2: some of my political shows, and I was watching Cuomo.
- 15:08Speaker 2: And what I love about Cuomo is that he will
- 15:12Speaker 2: have he will have a Democrat on as well as
- 15:17Speaker 2: a Republican on. And he had in this particular circumstance,
- 15:20Speaker 2: they were talking about healthcare, and he had Rocanna from California,
- 15:23Speaker 2: and then from Missouri. I think it's Mark Alfred. And
- 15:27Speaker 2: they spoke respectfully to each other, and they appreciated each other,
- 15:31Speaker 2: and they appreciated that each one of them had differences.
- 15:33Speaker 2: And I thought, this is what it's supposed to be,
- 15:36Speaker 2: things getting done, working, not sitting and screaming at each other.
- 15:42Speaker 2: And I would love to see Chuck Schumer get back
- 15:45Speaker 2: to doing some of that.
- 15:46Speaker 4: Chuck Schumer is the reason I agree with there should
- 15:49Speaker 4: be term limits on politicians, because he should have been going.
- 15:54Speaker 4: He should have been gone. Miss McConnell should have been gone. Hell,
- 15:57Speaker 4: even my girl Nancy bulows he should have been gone.
- 16:00Speaker 4: Means that they should have been put in a position
- 16:01Speaker 4: to groom someone younger and more ready and more agile
- 16:06Speaker 4: to take over for them, as opposed to having an
- 16:08Speaker 4: in election. I have groomed this person. Not to say
- 16:10Speaker 4: that this person has all of my policies, but this
- 16:13Speaker 4: person understands what the job is to serve the American people.
- 16:18Speaker 4: They don't have that lobby. They don't.
- 16:20Speaker 2: I agree with that, or a flip side of that
- 16:23Speaker 2: would be if they didn't want to have term limits.
- 16:25Speaker 2: They should be each person just like you and I.
- 16:29Speaker 2: We have a job, and we have a boss, and
- 16:31Speaker 2: our boss gives us a review at a certain time
- 16:33Speaker 2: and says, Okay, these are the things I'm seeing you do.
- 16:35Speaker 2: These are the things you have to do better. It's
- 16:38Speaker 2: up to us to say, okay, these are my accomplishments,
- 16:41Speaker 2: you know, like just to remind them they should be
- 16:43Speaker 2: the same thing. These congressmen and the senators, they should
- 16:46Speaker 2: have to have an actor or passed or worked on
- 16:49Speaker 2: these committees that pushed things forward. If you got thirty
- 16:53Speaker 2: eight bills, that's it. That is the lowest in history,
- 16:57Speaker 2: and that's all you've gotten done. You know, I think
- 17:00Speaker 2: everybody should be spanked, and we need a new little
- 17:03Speaker 2: bit new blood because if people aren't willing to work together,
- 17:05Speaker 2: I think it's ridiculous.
- 17:09Speaker 4: Y yeah, Bobby beyond over it, so much over it
- 17:12Speaker 4: that we need to get to make sure that these
- 17:14Speaker 4: mid terms fall so blue that it can't turn on
- 17:18Speaker 4: the color. But the theory is, hopefully we won't be
- 17:21Speaker 4: in a war, Hopefully we're won't be in a crisis
- 17:24Speaker 4: to where we can't vote, you know, Hopefully rights won't
- 17:26Speaker 4: be stripped, stripped from different groups and organizations so that
- 17:31Speaker 4: we can all vote, you know, because according to what
- 17:34Speaker 4: they're trying to do, I don't know if they're trying
- 17:35Speaker 4: to remove the Civil re Acts so black people can't vote.
- 17:38Speaker 4: Are they trying to stop transgending people from voting. Are
- 17:41Speaker 4: they trying to stop women from voting? It's so many
- 17:46Speaker 4: keeping blocks. I know, I know, I know what's that?
- 17:51Speaker 4: And you know, body, that was funny, but that was
- 17:53Speaker 4: the truth, And that's terrible. That's terrible because now you're
- 17:57Speaker 4: just labeling everybody is something else. So it won't stop,
- 18:00Speaker 4: it'll never stop. Where woe So the only thing that
- 18:03Speaker 4: can vote is a Christian white nationalists man that they
- 18:06Speaker 4: view that's perfect for them. No no, no, no, no no no.
- 18:09Speaker 2: In the top and the top so many percent, that's
- 18:13Speaker 2: really what they want. You know, they're not really looking
- 18:16Speaker 2: for the uneducated, low income person.
- 18:20Speaker 4: They use, they use the uneducated, that's low income already,
- 18:25Speaker 4: they get what they needed for them. They got them
- 18:27Speaker 4: to vote to put him back in that position. That's
- 18:29Speaker 4: how he got in because that's what worked for him.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 18:35Speaker 4: I had to go pick up an audioall. I'm sorry,
- 18:38Speaker 4: y'all was quick too.
- 18:39Speaker 2: Why don't you Why don't you tell them what you got?
- 18:41Speaker 4: I am not because Bobby don't like them and Aaron
- 18:44Speaker 4: doesn't eat pork. So my girlfriend said, how do you
- 18:47Speaker 4: lose weight? I say, eat less pork, eat more coucie.
- 18:50Speaker 4: I didn't that's not the word I used. But you
- 18:52Speaker 4: know this ain't stand up. And if y'all was on stage,
- 18:54Speaker 4: then y'all would get it for real. They said, what
- 18:56Speaker 4: am I gonna do there? I say, well, I guess
- 18:58Speaker 4: we'll both of them fair free, so let's go for.
- 19:02Speaker 2: But maybe they're both protein.
- 19:05Speaker 4: I don't know. When i'm them make you pregnant, so
- 19:07Speaker 4: it might not be fat free because nine months later
- 19:09Speaker 4: you might gain a whole bunch of weight.
- 19:11Speaker 2: Ew No, no, ma'am, did you see that the Supreme
- 19:17Speaker 2: Court at the transgender sports are actually the Supreme Court?
- 19:21Speaker 2: I haven't paid much attention, Like, I don't know when
- 19:23Speaker 2: they are slated to come back with a decision, I
- 19:26Speaker 2: don't know if that's going to be. You know, they
- 19:29Speaker 2: seem to take him up with a lot of stuff
- 19:31Speaker 2: like in May June. But I thought this will kind
- 19:33Speaker 2: of be interesting to see where they're well.
- 19:36Speaker 4: You're tottering on the fence. They don't know which way
- 19:38Speaker 4: they're going to go. Borderline, I have no opinion on
- 19:41Speaker 4: which way. I personally, thank you. Personally, I think I
- 19:47Speaker 4: know which way is going to go. I think they're
- 19:49Speaker 4: playing it out for to say face, because they're trying
- 19:52Speaker 4: to see what it's going to happen with this administration.
- 19:55Speaker 4: But personally, Bobby, I wish we weren't even here. Personally,
- 19:59Speaker 4: as a as a person of trans experience, I wish
- 20:02Speaker 4: that we weren't even here. I wish that we had
- 20:05Speaker 4: my thing whose I've always seen, just created a lane
- 20:08Speaker 4: for trans athletes, because here's the thing. If we lose
- 20:11Speaker 4: in the Supreme Court, then now the trans athletes have
- 20:14Speaker 4: no place to compete. They have no place to play,
- 20:17Speaker 4: they have no place to showcase their god given talent
- 20:21Speaker 4: because they don't have a place to call their own
- 20:25Speaker 4: and say, every man's home exactly every man's home is
- 20:31Speaker 4: his castle. This is what Robin Hood's see it. So
- 20:34Speaker 4: if you got your own space, that's your castle. But
- 20:36Speaker 4: you're right, Bobby, Now, you'll never know how great you
- 20:39Speaker 4: could have been because you don't have no place to
- 20:42Speaker 4: be great. You were trying to be great someplace where
- 20:44Speaker 4: you were not welcome. And with all the hate and
- 20:46Speaker 4: division that's coming down from the top, I'm afraid for
- 20:49Speaker 4: these teen athletes, these teens trans athletes that if they
- 20:53Speaker 4: do better than the girls or the biological girls or whatever,
- 20:56Speaker 4: they're going to be hurt, harmed, you know, possibly kill.
- 21:02Speaker 4: That is where we are at.
- 21:04Speaker 2: Yeah, and I agree, and not necessarily even by the athletes,
- 21:07Speaker 2: but by people who don't understand parents who disgruntled you know,
- 21:11Speaker 2: adults is more who I think will bother.
- 21:13Speaker 4: Them, those people who wanted something fair. You see something
- 21:17Speaker 4: out in the world. You have a daughter, You have
- 21:19Speaker 4: a son, I have a daughter, or imagine if you
- 21:22Speaker 4: had a daughter. You train and you watch that girl
- 21:25Speaker 4: go through it hard, working hard to be number one,
- 21:28Speaker 4: to be the best female in that division that she could.
- 21:33Speaker 4: Just to allow somebody else who had family cut their mind,
- 21:37Speaker 4: their mind caught up with their with how they identify
- 21:40Speaker 4: and they were allowed to become how they truly felt.
- 21:43Speaker 4: But then you go up against my daughter and you were,
- 21:46Speaker 4: like you said, but you already have an age. Absolutely not,
- 21:49Speaker 4: absolutely not. I would never agree with that as even
- 21:53Speaker 4: if I wasn't a parent. I just the way I
- 21:55Speaker 4: see things is maybe maybe a little different from other people.
- 21:59Speaker 4: But I like people to be treated fairly.
- 22:02Speaker 2: I do. And I like you saying that the trans
- 22:05Speaker 2: Olympics because we have the special Olympics that theys Toner Shriver,
- 22:09Speaker 2: we have the power Olympics. Ye, that are almost as
- 22:13Speaker 2: as people well watched as the regular Olympics are. So
- 22:16Speaker 2: if we have those lanes, why can't we make it?
- 22:19Speaker 2: And maybe we need to sit and look. I don't
- 22:21Speaker 2: know if there would be any other lane for any
- 22:22Speaker 2: other reason.
- 22:23Speaker 4: I believe that those talks have been to the table,
- 22:26Speaker 4: but it was the powers that be over in the
- 22:28Speaker 4: trans people and who felt like they weren't being treated fairly,
- 22:32Speaker 4: that it was being discriminatory. I don't believe that at all.
- 22:35Speaker 4: But I believe that you should have wanted to be
- 22:37Speaker 4: someplace that you felt safe.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Yeah, I would think so too. I would date.
- 22:43Speaker 4: Every kind of trans daughter, and she's fifteen, sixteen years old,
- 22:46Speaker 4: and she run against the girls of wool Woo and
- 22:49Speaker 4: they all her girlfriends. And then she decides to join
- 22:52Speaker 4: the girls track team and she beats them all. They're
- 22:55Speaker 4: not gonna be her girlfriends no more, and she's not
- 22:57Speaker 4: gonna be considered one of the girls. This is still
- 23:03Speaker 4: competite and that teen rivalry. That that, oh my god,
- 23:08Speaker 4: that is we thought we were bad as adults. Them
- 23:11Speaker 4: teens are rough. The only reason I know that is
- 23:15Speaker 4: because I live with two and I used to listen
- 23:17Speaker 4: to them going back and forth. I'm like, oh my god,
- 23:19Speaker 4: what have this world becomes? The teen and the teen
- 23:22Speaker 4: girls of Mean Girls, A lot of the teen girls
- 23:24Speaker 4: of Mean Girls, and they say nothing is off limits.
- 23:27Speaker 4: They will tell your soul, your heart at your chest
- 23:29Speaker 4: while you're standing looking at them. So yeah, it is.
- 23:32Speaker 4: It's almost setting yourself up a failure, Bobby, if you
- 23:35Speaker 4: ask me, yeah, I don't. I don't.
- 23:38Speaker 2: I don't understand it myself. But I always want to
- 23:41Speaker 2: sit in I don't want to ever be anywhere. But
- 23:44Speaker 2: this is just me that and I don't in this
- 23:46Speaker 2: particular conversation. I don't have a lot that I can
- 23:48Speaker 2: say because I don't have a trans child, and I'm
- 23:51Speaker 2: not trans myself, but I would always want my kid
- 23:54Speaker 2: to be someway that was safe, that they felt welcomed,
- 23:58Speaker 2: et cetera. And the other piece of that, you know
- 24:00Speaker 2: what I was thinking of. I'm thinking of like the
- 24:02Speaker 2: ice skaters and stuff. I had a girlfriend's child who
- 24:07Speaker 2: was ice skating. They were very good, but they didn't
- 24:09Speaker 2: end up going as far as the Olympics. That said,
- 24:12Speaker 2: the money she used to put in, they used to
- 24:14Speaker 2: be up at three and four in the morning to
- 24:15Speaker 2: get ice time. She spent tens of thousands of dollars
- 24:20Speaker 2: every year. And to think you're trying to give your
- 24:22Speaker 2: kid the edge for the sport and then to have
- 24:27Speaker 2: somebody who comes in that's a little stronger, that could
- 24:30Speaker 2: push and jump and do whatever better, I think I'd
- 24:34Speaker 2: be a little devastated, to be quite honest with you. Anyway,
- 24:39Speaker 2: That's enough about that. But I just didn't know if
- 24:40Speaker 2: you had heard it or you were following it. I know,
- 24:42Speaker 2: I don't want to beat it to death and then
- 24:44Speaker 2: have everybody hating our gay.
- 24:45Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, I'm following it because Bobby, it is news
- 24:47Speaker 4: for me, and it is news for my listeners a
- 24:49Speaker 4: lot of things that I do not agree with, and
- 24:51Speaker 4: it's not going I say that I don't want them
- 24:53Speaker 4: to change it, but I was always looking out for
- 24:56Speaker 4: the entire spectrum that if we do lose this, then
- 24:59Speaker 4: we the trans athletes because I'm not an athlete. I'm
- 25:02Speaker 4: not I'm not an athlete. I don't compete in sports.
- 25:04Speaker 4: But now the ones that that is what they're calling
- 25:07Speaker 4: is won't have a place to call it on the
- 25:10Speaker 4: prof see that, And that's all I was ever saying.
- 25:14Speaker 4: So why why push the envelope? Why force that when
- 25:18Speaker 4: there's another option? There was always another option, but they
- 25:22Speaker 4: didn't want that option. They wanted to be somewhere else,
- 25:26Speaker 4: and I just don't agree with that. On let's Bobby,
- 25:29Speaker 4: let's go to Iran, because Iran like Iran like y'all
- 25:32Speaker 4: going to come up off of us. So we're gonna
- 25:34Speaker 4: show you that Iran apparently has put out a threat
- 25:38Speaker 4: towards Trump to say that the next the next hit
- 25:42Speaker 4: won't miss, as if they were saying that they did
- 25:44Speaker 4: that one. Before we touch on that, y'all, though, I
- 25:47Speaker 4: gotta go, Pete, We're gonna take a commercial break, and
- 25:54Speaker 4: we're back that was the quickest p ever. Oh my god,
- 25:57Speaker 4: if it was only that fast, I think that is.
- 26:03Speaker 4: And I'm telling you, Bobby, going to a war right now,
- 26:07Speaker 4: with the economy, with the disgruntlement of America. I've seen
- 26:11Speaker 4: a politician I want to say he was from the UK,
- 26:17Speaker 4: said that America is I can't. I hate that. I
- 26:20Speaker 4: doesn't write his name. Now is probably the most dangerous
- 26:23Speaker 4: country right now. That is just the unsafest country. Baby.
- 26:27Speaker 4: We have lost so many tourists coming here, has lost
- 26:32Speaker 4: twenty five thousands, and you know, and then we just
- 26:35Speaker 4: had these horrible wildfires last year allegedly on their own,
- 26:39Speaker 4: but you know, people here who live in California believe
- 26:42Speaker 4: that they were removed so that they could have the
- 26:45Speaker 4: Olympics here. Bobby, with the state of the world the
- 26:48Speaker 4: way it is, I don't believe the Olympics is going
- 26:51Speaker 4: to come to America. And with that being said, so
- 26:54Speaker 4: you tell me that these alleged wildfires that burned down,
- 26:58Speaker 4: burned all these people out of their homes for it
- 27:01Speaker 4: was all in vain. So now, because now we're going
- 27:03Speaker 4: to lose that Olympic money because people are afraid to
- 27:06Speaker 4: come here because ice is out of control.
- 27:09Speaker 2: I personally would be I probably would let my child come,
- 27:13Speaker 2: but I would I'd be terrified because the athletes.
- 27:19Speaker 4: I'm talking about the I'm talking about all of them.
- 27:22Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm talking about the whole kitten kaboodle, because it
- 27:25Speaker 2: looks crazy people being shot in the street, you know,
- 27:30Speaker 2: not just the immigrants. I mean they had. It was
- 27:33Speaker 2: just on the news this week. They had a seventeen
- 27:35Speaker 2: year old kid. I think he was in Target. He
- 27:37Speaker 2: was grabbed. He's an American, he was born here, and
- 27:41Speaker 2: they had him and they beat him up. I think
- 27:44Speaker 2: that they brought him somewhere. Then they had to release
- 27:46Speaker 2: them and they realized he's an American kid. But you know,
- 27:48Speaker 2: we don't hear what I'm sorry or and I guess
- 27:51Speaker 2: he didn't hear war. I'm sorry either. But I'd be
- 27:54Speaker 2: nervous too, even if I had the papers. I guess
- 27:56Speaker 2: if you have, if you have any type of papers,
- 27:58Speaker 2: just to walk all around with them, which I was
- 28:01Speaker 2: always trying. You know, you hide your passport, you keep
- 28:03Speaker 2: it somewhere, put it in the safe or whatever, but
- 28:05Speaker 2: I guess you gotta gotta wear it around your badge
- 28:07Speaker 2: like a lanyard for the love of God, and I
- 28:10Speaker 2: don't even know if that will keep them safe. No,
- 28:12Speaker 2: but I Aron scares me. Yeah, you know, this is
- 28:16Speaker 2: a country. And maybe it's because when we were kids,
- 28:20Speaker 2: you had the whole you know, Iran Contra thing, and
- 28:24Speaker 2: and you high president.
- 28:27Speaker 4: With you. Oh my god, it would make his name,
- 28:33Speaker 4: would make your blood curdle when you heard the stories
- 28:35Speaker 4: throughout him, you know, so it was just a lie.
- 28:37Speaker 4: And to know that they have so many sense that
- 28:40Speaker 4: Irene Iran Contra affair under Ronald Reagan on the under
- 28:45Speaker 4: that administration, they have some of the same weapons of
- 28:47Speaker 4: mass destruction that we have, and who knows how far
- 28:50Speaker 4: alone they are with what. So what they're telling us
- 28:52Speaker 4: on the news is oh, oh they we get rid
- 28:56Speaker 4: of them. We blew up all their stations. You blew
- 28:58Speaker 4: up what they wanted you to know that they had,
- 29:00Speaker 4: just like we have what you guys want us to
- 29:03Speaker 4: know that you have. Because they say that the way
- 29:06Speaker 4: according to media, it wasn't seeing An. I want to
- 29:10Speaker 4: say it was MSNBC. The reason that we were so
- 29:13Speaker 4: easy for Trump to acquire the President Maduro from Venezuela
- 29:17Speaker 4: is because they have these new sound things. Bobby with
- 29:20Speaker 4: the drones and so the sound affects your brains and
- 29:24Speaker 4: buckles you to your knees. It made me think about
- 29:26Speaker 4: the movie The Incredible Hulk, because they had those in
- 29:29Speaker 4: The Incredible Hulk to stop the Hawk, and it was
- 29:32Speaker 4: just sound. It gets up in your heads like this
- 29:36Speaker 4: and I'm Bobby, and they buckled them to their knees
- 29:38Speaker 4: to where they was helpless. That's why there was the
- 29:41Speaker 4: very few shootings when Maduro was acquired from Venezuela, when
- 29:45Speaker 4: he was snatched up out of Venezuela. Oh, Bobby, So
- 29:48Speaker 4: those are things that we don't hear about. Those are
- 29:50Speaker 4: things that they don't talk about on the news here.
- 29:54Speaker 4: I think we know all the secrets.
- 29:56Speaker 2: They were actually one hundred people. CNN was reporting one
- 29:59Speaker 2: hundred peopeople that were actually killed in that in that movement.
- 30:02Speaker 2: You know, they kept saying, oh, so few, so few
- 30:05Speaker 2: people were shot or killed. I think one hundred people
- 30:08Speaker 2: is but yeah, I mean it's crazy. It's under every
- 30:15Speaker 2: every presidency or there has been some sort of like
- 30:20Speaker 2: I said, we had Carter with it, we had Reagan
- 30:22Speaker 2: with it, with with Aaron, there's always trouble. So it
- 30:25Speaker 2: really this it scares me that it's you know, it's
- 30:28Speaker 2: like recycling it back up. And these are people that
- 30:31Speaker 2: will go down with their counts.
- 30:32Speaker 4: They are not like, Yes, Trump was speaking on something earlier.
- 30:37Speaker 4: I seen it earlier today, speaking about with They asked
- 30:41Speaker 4: him about immunity for presidents. So he said, well, with
- 30:44Speaker 4: all the accusations that you're throwing at Obama, are you
- 30:47Speaker 4: worried about Obama? You know the immunity affected him. He says, well, no, no,
- 30:51Speaker 4: I'm not really worried about it, but it's going to
- 30:53Speaker 4: affect all the people around him. So you know you
- 30:56Speaker 4: had to think that, right, So this is just a
- 30:58Speaker 4: boomerang to you. So with all the carnage that Trump
- 31:02Speaker 4: is happening, happening under his watch through his administration, because
- 31:06Speaker 4: of the immunity clause, with him, nothing will happen. But
- 31:10Speaker 4: everybody around him, from Stephen Miller to all the other
- 31:12Speaker 4: knuckleheads chrome I mean known tould tell all the other hexi,
- 31:20Speaker 4: those would be the ones that will be the collateral
- 31:22Speaker 4: damage in the flight trying to get to him and
- 31:25Speaker 4: will tell everything that he did. But because he has
- 31:27Speaker 4: immunity as a president, nothing will affect him. But it's
- 31:30Speaker 4: almost like what damn so everybody know they're going to
- 31:33Speaker 4: get thrown up under the bus. They're just making enough
- 31:35Speaker 4: money now to be able to support their family while
- 31:37Speaker 4: they're going away.
- 31:40Speaker 2: Yep, yep, it's it's pretty scary stuff.
- 31:46Speaker 4: You know what hurt me though, Bobby. The other day
- 31:48Speaker 4: I was watching Mark oh Hey shot his wife, politician
- 31:57Speaker 4: expert Mark Kelly. I had brain fart, Mark.
- 32:00Speaker 2: Kelly, he shot his wife.
- 32:03Speaker 4: No, no, no, I was watching him speak if I have.
- 32:08Speaker 4: They are trying to partially take away partia his part
- 32:12Speaker 4: of his his pension and demot his title. And and
- 32:16Speaker 4: I'm like, this man has served many years in the military,
- 32:21Speaker 4: a couple of tours in war, really fast country everything
- 32:26Speaker 4: just because a hot head, a drunken hot head, wants
- 32:29Speaker 4: to get angry because he told the military that you
- 32:32Speaker 4: signed up to defend the constitution, not one person who
- 32:36Speaker 4: can make decisions that you're knowing not wrong. I thought
- 32:40Speaker 4: he was If anybody should be awarded a courage medal
- 32:45Speaker 4: right now, because that's what's missing in the country's courage.
- 32:48Speaker 4: I think Mark Kelly should get one. I thought that
- 32:51Speaker 4: was so courageous for him to speak out like that.
- 32:54Speaker 2: I like him as a person. I think He is
- 32:56Speaker 2: a good I love his wife, and I love how
- 32:58Speaker 2: he has stood by all these years, you know, with
- 33:01Speaker 2: her impairments and whatnot. Although she really she came back,
- 33:04Speaker 2: she has trouble with her communication. It's all up there.
- 33:08Speaker 2: I think. I don't know. How could you imagine me
- 33:10Speaker 2: with that not being able to get my words out?
- 33:12Speaker 2: Oh my god, that would be I could lose my mind.
- 33:14Speaker 2: You could watch me literally melt into a big puddle in.
- 33:18Speaker 4: Front of you the comedience. Man and me just went somewhere.
- 33:21Speaker 4: But I'm not going to say that publicly.
- 33:25Speaker 2: But I agree too. I think what a small for
- 33:28Speaker 2: saying the right thing. What he said legally was correct.
- 33:31Speaker 2: It is your duty not to follow in a legal
- 33:35Speaker 2: order given to you, not a rightful or adjust They
- 33:38Speaker 2: were trying to say that. And the fact that they
- 33:41Speaker 2: can really only get him and punish him, I thought,
- 33:44Speaker 2: you know, this is all. It's funny. President Trump has
- 33:49Speaker 2: complained that people go after him everything is politically motivated.
- 33:53Speaker 2: What is more politically motivated than this? I don't know.
- 33:58Speaker 2: I don't think anything.
- 34:00Speaker 4: I just loved I loved to see men even in
- 34:03Speaker 4: the face of adversity. And mind you, he has lots
- 34:06Speaker 4: of reasons to tuck his tail and move. They Even
- 34:10Speaker 4: though it wasn't the maga that shot his wife Gabigift
- 34:15Speaker 4: for years ago, it was something deranged, whatever he was,
- 34:18Speaker 4: it's still the fact that they got that close to
- 34:20Speaker 4: him and for him to still stand on his little
- 34:22Speaker 4: hymn Nancy Pelosi, so many others who really have just
- 34:29Speaker 4: taken that all and said no, right is right and
- 34:31Speaker 4: wrong is wrong. Those are the people that are not
- 34:33Speaker 4: getting commendation. And those are people that's not getting the
- 34:36Speaker 4: respect out of this country that I think they should
- 34:38Speaker 4: because it's so busy to everybody's the fear, the fear
- 34:41Speaker 4: of I'm going to lose my position, the fear I'm
- 34:44Speaker 4: going to have to gravel and bow down. And Bobby
- 34:46Speaker 4: I said on The Breakfast Club in twenty nineteen that
- 34:51Speaker 4: I never liked none courageous men, by the way, but
- 34:53Speaker 4: I sit on there that are a gay white man
- 34:56Speaker 4: in America is still a white man in America. Two
- 34:58Speaker 4: gay white podcasters win after Jasmine Crockett so hard about
- 35:01Speaker 4: three weeks ago told people not to donate money to
- 35:04Speaker 4: her and everything. No repercussions for them, not because they
- 35:08Speaker 4: were gay, but because they were white They did apologize
- 35:12Speaker 4: for it afterwards, but the damage had already been done.
- 35:16Speaker 2: What was the rationale?
- 35:17Speaker 4: Do you know she's a loud black woman who will
- 35:21Speaker 4: I'm like, she sees you, she's voting for you. You
- 35:24Speaker 4: know what happened to me, to me with the community,
- 35:27Speaker 4: with the LGBT, but not all the lg I caould
- 35:29Speaker 4: say with a lot of with the trans community and
- 35:31Speaker 4: some of the especially these younger gays and younger trans,
- 35:34Speaker 4: you wanted to be seen. They saw you already, You
- 35:37Speaker 4: had every right afforded to man. You wanted to be seen.
- 35:41Speaker 4: Give me when I tell you, they see you? Do?
- 35:45Speaker 4: They see you? They don't like what they see, but
- 35:48Speaker 4: they see you, and it is scary. It's terrifying.
- 35:53Speaker 2: Not for the right reasons that you always want to
- 35:55Speaker 2: be seen for the right reasons.
- 35:56Speaker 4: That's the reason I say it the way I said it,
- 35:58Speaker 4: Because they see you. Yeah. The Colorista was the two guys,
- 36:03Speaker 4: the two gay podcasters that spoke against. Just for clarifications,
- 36:08Speaker 4: these were the two gay guys who spoke against Jasmine Crockett.
- 36:10Speaker 4: I'm probably not that correctly. L A c U L
- 36:15Speaker 4: R I S T A S c U L You
- 36:18Speaker 4: are I T a s the Colorista. That's the podcast
- 36:22Speaker 4: going well. And I'm telling you, if you're in a
- 36:24Speaker 4: bad place, or if you think you down or you trouble,
- 36:27Speaker 4: and I'm telling you we all living with troubles right
- 36:29Speaker 4: now in America. O oh my god, do they see you?
- 36:32Speaker 4: I hear it. And I said it on the Breakfast
- 36:35Speaker 4: Up in twenty nineteen, my very first interview, that a
- 36:38Speaker 4: gay white man in America is still a white man
- 36:41Speaker 4: in America. And Charlomagne said he still has that privilege,
- 36:43Speaker 4: and I said, boom, there it is because understand that
- 36:46Speaker 4: if I would have spoke against such a public platform
- 36:50Speaker 4: like that, against their leader, my platform will probably be done.
- 36:54Speaker 4: And they work for iHeart, the same network we're on here.
- 36:57Speaker 4: You hear me when I tell you, O tunities to everybody.
- 37:01Speaker 4: It's just that everybody takes don't take the opportunity to
- 37:03Speaker 4: use it wisely. They did put a pussy as apology up,
- 37:07Speaker 4: but accord Yard producer, it was only in their stories
- 37:09Speaker 4: and it disappears after twenty four hours. Take your apology
- 37:13Speaker 4: and stick you with the same place where you stick
- 37:15Speaker 4: one of those low penises.
- 37:16Speaker 2: At what I want to do for foot fan the
- 37:19Speaker 2: flame I actually sent you a couple of pieces because
- 37:23Speaker 2: we're talking about seeing so I just thought it was
- 37:24Speaker 2: a great segue into it that something that people are
- 37:28Speaker 2: so thirsty for and hungry for is peace and love
- 37:33Speaker 2: and something to bring the rhetoric down in kindness. Have
- 37:36Speaker 2: you seen this? These Buddhist monks that are going from
- 37:41Speaker 2: Texas to DC over one hundred and twenty days, twenty
- 37:44Speaker 2: three hundred miles they're walking with I don't know how
- 37:48Speaker 2: many of them. It looks like there's no more than fifteen.
- 37:51Speaker 2: They're walking with a stray dog that they had gotten
- 37:55Speaker 2: India when they were doing something similar name Maloka. And
- 37:59Speaker 2: the people that are come out. The person who kind
- 38:02Speaker 2: of is leading the charge that the head monk so
- 38:06Speaker 2: to speak, said that he thought he thought there might
- 38:09Speaker 2: be one or two people on the roads, but he
- 38:11Speaker 2: didn't think there would be much. They were doing it
- 38:13Speaker 2: because everything they do is kind of quiet, and you know,
- 38:16Speaker 2: they're not doing stuff for recognition. That way, the thousands
- 38:20Speaker 2: of people that are lining the roads and thanking them
- 38:24Speaker 2: and give, you know, gifting them and supporting them and
- 38:29Speaker 2: listening to them speak, is it absolutely touches my heart.
- 38:33Speaker 2: I follow that walk and then because you do. You know,
- 38:35Speaker 2: the algorithm grabs shoot. So people who are standing on
- 38:38Speaker 2: the side, you get it, like their clips. It is amazing.
- 38:42Speaker 2: And so we always say, like, what can you do?
- 38:46Speaker 2: These are the things you do? People? You show up,
- 38:48Speaker 2: You show up, and you vote. You in a peaceful protest,
- 38:51Speaker 2: we see now, do not get in a car or
- 38:54Speaker 2: have anything that would be considered to be a weapon.
- 38:57Speaker 2: Really take the tenants of Martin Luther King, and it's
- 39:00Speaker 2: his birthday this weekend, so you know that it's a
- 39:03Speaker 2: perfect timing but peaceful protest, that those are things that
- 39:07Speaker 2: are certainly going to make a difference. I am dying.
- 39:10Speaker 2: I haven't heard this. I'm dying to see when they
- 39:13Speaker 2: get to DC. What's going to happen there. Do you
- 39:16Speaker 2: think the Cheeto is going to come out and look
- 39:19Speaker 2: at them or listen to.
- 39:20Speaker 4: The absolutely not. First of all, that he should be
- 39:24Speaker 4: giving them around the applause because they have on his
- 39:26Speaker 4: favorite color, which is orange. Second of all, nobody really
- 39:30Speaker 4: messed with monks because monks are such a mysterious religion.
- 39:33Speaker 4: You really don't know how to handle them, but to
- 39:37Speaker 4: stay on your side of the road. And it's not
- 39:39Speaker 4: to say that they're violent. They only preach calm and quiet,
- 39:44Speaker 4: and you know, but you never know what they're carrying
- 39:47Speaker 4: up under them, Orae's dresses that they walk around here.
- 39:49Speaker 4: Ain't no telling them what's up under them Orae's dresses.
- 39:51Speaker 4: And they got on some damn sandals. You don't know
- 39:54Speaker 4: what they're harboring. But for every time I've ever and
- 39:57Speaker 4: what you say, it spoke volumes because here's the thing.
- 40:00Speaker 4: They did that quietly. But so many people like you said,
- 40:03Speaker 4: I've seen the videos where they're lining up and they're
- 40:05Speaker 4: applauding them, and they're giving them all of this energy
- 40:07Speaker 4: of joy and thing it's hope, because that's what's fucking
- 40:11Speaker 4: said in America. We haven't any more hope because we
- 40:14Speaker 4: look at this flass record, this monster on TV every
- 40:18Speaker 4: single day that steals our joy, that steers steals our
- 40:22Speaker 4: American values and our democracy. So the monks are showing
- 40:26Speaker 4: us that there is this much. What the faith says,
- 40:29Speaker 4: all you need is faith the size of a mustard seed.
- 40:32Speaker 4: If fifteen months are the mustle seed that we need
- 40:35Speaker 4: to turn America around, goddamn it, Sammy up for it.
- 40:38Speaker 4: I'm all in by the clipper because we're losing, and
- 40:41Speaker 4: we're losing fast.
- 40:43Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't even get national coverage. Somebody sent it
- 40:46Speaker 2: into to Anderson Cooper and that's the only national coverage.
- 40:50Speaker 2: They've got local coverage and it's been amazing and a
- 40:55Speaker 2: lot of this This is what really touches my heart
- 40:57Speaker 2: because I think they're really walking through red states. I
- 41:00Speaker 2: don't think they've gone through a bluestate yet. And so
- 41:04Speaker 2: to see the people that in the volumes of people
- 41:06Speaker 2: that are coming out and you just said, it's hope people.
- 41:10Speaker 2: American people, for the most part are wonderful people who
- 41:14Speaker 2: have hope and they want to help people. And this
- 41:16Speaker 2: kind of shows that there's a small subset that is
- 41:20Speaker 2: that is making everybody nuts. But anyway, if anybody has
- 41:24Speaker 2: a chance to watch these, just plug into your you know,
- 41:28Speaker 2: if you put into Instagram walk for peace, it will
- 41:32Speaker 2: it will pop up.
- 41:32Speaker 4: It will turn your it will turn your frown to
- 41:36Speaker 4: a smile because you will see that we're not the
- 41:39Speaker 4: only ones feeling the way we are feeling. But somebody
- 41:41Speaker 4: is actually putting in a protests. And these these monks
- 41:45Speaker 4: are religious people like real connected to Jesus, so to
- 41:50Speaker 4: the book, Yes to Me it's all the same thing.
- 41:53Speaker 4: It's one person. It is it's the spirit, it's the
- 41:56Speaker 4: soul that you believe here. But they are very connected.
- 41:59Speaker 4: And I'm telling you, if that's what it's going to take,
- 42:02Speaker 4: hopefully it'll make a real change. And I love the
- 42:04Speaker 4: fact that nobody has tried to harm him. Nobody has.
- 42:07Speaker 4: And you, like you said about it, they're walking through
- 42:08Speaker 4: the real estace. You know, it's it's some hot their
- 42:11Speaker 4: feet there.
- 42:13Speaker 2: And there feet their feet are like you know, they're cut.
- 42:17Speaker 2: And oh even so one of them was driving in
- 42:20Speaker 2: one of the vans because you know, at some point
- 42:22Speaker 2: it gets too darker, too colds. You know, they're going
- 42:24Speaker 2: to the hotel. They usually try to walk anyway. The
- 42:27Speaker 2: van was hit and so this is even a nicer story.
- 42:30Speaker 2: Not this part of the story isn't nice. He was hit.
- 42:32Speaker 2: They fractured his legs so badly in the accident. His
- 42:35Speaker 2: leg had to be amputated, so that that poor monk
- 42:39Speaker 2: actually had to that Buddhist prasect actually had to go back,
- 42:42Speaker 2: not monk to go back to you know, wherever they're
- 42:46Speaker 2: they're from, the temple that they're from, because their their
- 42:50Speaker 2: vehicle was was totaled. Somebody donated one to be able
- 42:56Speaker 2: to keep this, this movement going. Oh my God, that
- 42:59Speaker 2: touched my heart. I'm telling you, my eyes fill up.
- 43:01Speaker 2: I watch them at the end of the night before
- 43:03Speaker 2: I go to bed, and that's when I say, I said,
- 43:05Speaker 2: there is hope that is out there. I hope to
- 43:08Speaker 2: God when they go to DC they're met with some
- 43:11Speaker 2: sort of positive energy and not just the range energy.
- 43:18Speaker 2: If you want to see the monks that is on
- 43:23Speaker 2: Walk for Peace, put in Walk for Peace. Even put
- 43:25Speaker 2: that into your Google search engine and if you want
- 43:28Speaker 2: to learn more about it, why they did it, when
- 43:29Speaker 2: they started it, and whatnot. I think they're on day
- 43:32Speaker 2: eighty three, so they have a ways to go, and
- 43:36Speaker 2: they might be coming to an area if we're.
- 43:38Speaker 4: About because you moved me out the water something. Are
- 43:40Speaker 4: they completely barefoot? No sandals or anything?
- 43:44Speaker 2: A lot of them.
- 43:45Speaker 4: Yeah, I would have to talk to the leader, like,
- 43:47Speaker 4: look at your player. Now. I know you could afford
- 43:49Speaker 4: me some nikes or some you could have gave I
- 43:51Speaker 4: would have woren some Walmart sneakers. It wouldn't even matter.
- 43:54Speaker 4: You had to give me some of them put on
- 43:55Speaker 4: my feet.
- 43:55Speaker 2: No, some of them have something on. Not a lot
- 43:58Speaker 2: of them, but a lot of them are doing your
- 43:59Speaker 2: barefoot because that's months. That's how they they travel.
- 44:03Speaker 4: But this is they want to do cold climate states.
- 44:08Speaker 2: So here's the good thing. So remember I said there
- 44:10Speaker 2: are tons of people that are on the sides of
- 44:11Speaker 2: the road. There have been physical therapists that have come
- 44:14Speaker 2: out to meet them at the end. They are podiatrists
- 44:16Speaker 2: that are there to treat their feet every night. There
- 44:19Speaker 2: are masseuses that are there to try to keep them,
- 44:22Speaker 2: keep them healthy so that they can keep walking. Because
- 44:25Speaker 2: that's the biggest fear is that they're doing this and
- 44:27Speaker 2: this is wonderful, but you know our bodies. The average
- 44:31Speaker 2: age is what the lead guy is and he's forty four,
- 44:34Speaker 2: so there I think it goes to seventy something, and
- 44:37Speaker 2: then there's somebody that's twenty something. There's a there's a
- 44:40Speaker 2: monk that's twenty something. So they're trying to keep them healthy.
- 44:43Speaker 2: And you know, in your forties, when you hit your
- 44:45Speaker 2: forties like we did, it is talking about stop saying
- 44:51Speaker 2: thirty nine. You hit forty. But when you get out
- 44:54Speaker 2: of bed, it's not quite the same as when you
- 44:56Speaker 2: used to hop out of the bed in your twenties.
- 44:58Speaker 2: So I love that, I love support.
- 45:00Speaker 4: I get a question. I have a question, though, body,
- 45:02Speaker 4: because now I've been trying do the monk's religion practice?
- 45:06Speaker 4: Are they celibacy? No sex?
- 45:09Speaker 2: I believe, so I really don't know a lot. I'll
- 45:11Speaker 2: have to I'll have to agree.
- 45:13Speaker 4: An wait a minute, I got because now I really
- 45:14Speaker 4: get questions like I'm barefoot, I'm watching for a cause.
- 45:17Speaker 4: I get all that, but I can't even bust the
- 45:19Speaker 4: nut every now and again, hold on, play a hold all.
- 45:22Speaker 2: Yeah, like not monks so yet. Traditional Buddhist monks and
- 45:26Speaker 2: nuns practice strict, strict, lifelong celibacy is a core part
- 45:30Speaker 2: of their vows.
- 45:32Speaker 4: Can masturbate.
- 45:35Speaker 2: I think it means whatever you think it means. And
- 45:37Speaker 2: I'm not being fresh like that that's a loophole.
- 45:42Speaker 4: That was a joke.
- 45:47Speaker 2: But I think that I just know this for times
- 45:52Speaker 2: in my life that have been dry. The longer you
- 45:54Speaker 2: don't have it, the more you don't even care about it,
- 45:56Speaker 2: like it's it doesn't become part when you're used to
- 45:58Speaker 2: having it. Then that's a problem, you know. Just like
- 46:03Speaker 2: French fries, go without French fries for a while, I can.
- 46:07Speaker 4: Miss a fry too. I don't even gonna miss the
- 46:09Speaker 4: busting down there. I miss that. Hold on, that's not
- 46:12Speaker 4: you could, that's not that's not the same kind of comparison.
- 46:15Speaker 4: Body so here everything like somebody who ain't had no
- 46:17Speaker 4: penis in quite Sometimes it work it.
- 46:19Speaker 2: A long time, so enforce the strict celibacy, prohibiting even
- 46:23Speaker 2: physical contact with women, many of them, so they're not
- 46:26Speaker 2: saying physical contact with themselves. So whatever.
- 46:32Speaker 4: I bet you they got some techniques. I need. I
- 46:34Speaker 4: need to find out what they masturbating techniques, I wondered,
- 46:37Speaker 4: as they go deep into the spiritual realm. I had
- 46:41Speaker 4: to close out with fun. Listen, ladies, gentlemen, we are

- 48:30Speaker 4: democracy back into a safe country that we live in.
- 48:33Speaker 4: That's what we need right now. That is what we
- 48:35Speaker 4: want to keep. So in order to do that, we
- 48:37Speaker 4: have to pray together, we have to see each other
- 48:40Speaker 4: for whoever we are, and we got to get assets
- 48:42Speaker 4: to the pose and vote.
- 48:44Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's coming. It's you know, ten or eleven short months.
- 48:48Speaker 2: It's here before you know it. It really is. Look
- 48:50Speaker 2: at we just did a year with him, and look
- 48:53Speaker 2: how in some days it seems like the longest year
- 48:55Speaker 2: of my life, but in others it's gone by in
- 48:58Speaker 2: a flash. And a blink of an eye. So those
- 49:01Speaker 2: those elections are going to be here. Find out all
- 49:04Speaker 2: of your family and friends who did not vote in
- 49:06Speaker 2: the last election. Get them to the polls. That's what
- 49:11Speaker 2: we need. We need that nine million to to have
- 49:14Speaker 2: their voices heard.
- 49:16Speaker 4: I think they got some of that nine million, got
- 49:18Speaker 4: a lot of their services cut off. We might not
- 49:21Speaker 4: have to ask them. I think they'll be there. They
- 49:23Speaker 4: need to know what decisions need to be made. Please
- 49:25Speaker 4: be protective, be safe for yourself, Be kind, Please be kind.
- 49:29Speaker 4: Let me tell you what kindness does. I'm filled with
- 49:31Speaker 4: joy because yesterday we were I was traveling at the
- 49:33Speaker 4: airport in lax Quick Story, and there was I was
- 49:36Speaker 4: gemail a little snacks on water, my chocolate milk compressors,
- 49:40Speaker 4: and it's this white woman came over to ask the
- 49:43Speaker 4: guy they had any more masks. He says, no, we
- 49:45Speaker 4: don't have any more masks. She was just she just
- 49:48Speaker 4: was a regular, nice lady. You know. I said that
- 49:50Speaker 4: she was white because she was white, and I'm not
- 49:52Speaker 4: saying that from a racial standpoint. And I said, ma'am,
