  Speaker 8: All right.
• 5:01
  Speaker 9: Well, we start this morning with massive protests around the
• 5:03
  Speaker 9: country as millions took to the streets for the No
• 5:06
  Speaker 9: King's Movement, a direct response to President Trump and his administration.
• 5:11
  Speaker 9: Nearly seven million people across all fifty states and all
• 5:14
  Speaker 9: around the world joined Saturday's demonstrations, denouncing what they call
• 5:18
  Speaker 9: an abuse of power by the President. The organizers say
• 5:21
  Speaker 9: it was the largest single day protests against a sitting
• 5:24
  Speaker 9: president in modern day history, surpassing the first wave of
• 5:27
  Speaker 9: no King demonstrations held back in June from Boston to
• 5:31
  Speaker 9: Los Angeles, huge crowds filled the streets, waving flags, carrying signs.
• 5:36
  Speaker 9: Protesters said that they were marching to defend democracy, oppose
• 5:39
  Speaker 9: immigration rates, and pushback on troop deployments and health care cuts.
• 5:44
  Speaker 9: And in Washington, Senator Bernie Sanders he took to the
• 5:47
  Speaker 9: stage calling out what he says are growing threats to democracy.
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: Let's listen, this.
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: Is about a handful of the wealthiest people on earth who,
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: in their insatiable grief, have hijacked our economy and our
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: political system in order to enrich themselves at the expense
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: of working families throughout this country. I am talking about
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Fax Zuckerberg, and they are the
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: multi billionaires.
• 6:25
  Speaker 9: Well, meanwhile, Republicans are dismissing the protests as hate America rallies,
• 6:29
  Speaker 9: accusing Democrats of fueling unrest during the ongoing government shutdown,
• 6:34
  Speaker 9: and reporters they pressed President Trump for his reaction to
• 6:37
  Speaker 9: the massive demonstrations this weekend, and this was his response,
• 6:41
  Speaker 9: what's your response?
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: In the protest over the weekend. The new kings pregnesses, I.
• 6:45
  Speaker 10: Think it's a joke. I looked at the people. They're
• 6:47
  Speaker 10: not representative of this country. And I looked at all
• 6:50
  Speaker 10: the brand new science paid for. I guess it was
• 6:52
  Speaker 10: paid for by Surus and other radical left lunatics.
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: It looks like it was.
• 6:57
  Speaker 10: We're checking it out. The demonstrations were very small, very ineffective,
• 7:03
  Speaker 10: and the people who are worked out. When you look
• 7:04
  Speaker 10: at those people, those are not representative but the people
• 7:07
  Speaker 10: of our.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Country beside San Francisco.
• 7:09
  Speaker 10: I'm not a king. I'm not a king. I work
• 7:12
  Speaker 10: my ass off to make our country great. That's all
• 7:14
  Speaker 10: it is. I'm not a king at all.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think he's a king. He's just not
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: a good president.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, when you have a bunch of people who
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: are unemployed and you have a bunch of people who
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: are getting paid, what do you expect them to do?
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: They feel like they're not being hers, of course they're
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: going to take.
• 7:29
  Speaker 9: To the screet absolutely, and just to say trumpy. Also,
• 7:33
  Speaker 9: he mocked those demonstrations Saturday. While they were going on,
• 7:36
  Speaker 9: he posted on true social including AI generated video showing
• 7:40
  Speaker 9: him wearing a Crown flying a jet and bombing protesters
• 7:44
  Speaker 9: with some sort of brown liquid. But despite the criticism,
• 7:47
  Speaker 9: organizers are saying that it was a success, saying millions
• 7:50
  Speaker 9: came together to peacefully send a clear message about democracy.
• 7:54
  Speaker 9: And later today in Washington the shutdown, the Senators will
• 7:57
  Speaker 9: reconvene at three pm to take another vote at five
• 8:01
  Speaker 9: point thirty on reopening the government and see if we're
• 8:04
  Speaker 9: going to continue the shutdown.
• 8:05
  Speaker 7: So you're going to continue to watch that.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Nobody's gonna be happy because Donald Trump made a lot
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: of promises about the economy that you have not been kept.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: And he promised immediate relief on day one.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: The inflation would be down, you know, Grocery prices would
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: be down, gas prices would be downe That's what he
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: promised the American people on day one. All you've seen
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: is a bunch of you know, firings and layoffs and
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: furloughs and people not working. What does he expect people
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: to do except for taking to the street to make
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: some noise, especially the Holliday's coming up too. Oh my god,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: this is the ultimate reminder that you ain't got no goddamn.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Money in your pocket.
• 8:38
  Speaker 9: Absolutely, and people are really feeling it. Not only is
• 8:40
  Speaker 9: he doing all those things Charlemagne, he is pardoning and
• 8:43
  Speaker 9: commuting sentences. So former Congressman George Santos, he is a
• 8:47
  Speaker 9: free man this morning after President Trump.
• 8:49
  Speaker 7: Commuted his sentence. You guys remember him.
• 8:51
  Speaker 9: He was the congressman who was indicted or he went
• 8:55
  Speaker 9: to jail for seven years for wire fraud and identity
• 8:58
  Speaker 9: theft after admitting he stole campaign funds and lied to
• 9:01
  Speaker 9: donors for personal gain. And so now after hours after
• 9:05
  Speaker 9: his release, Trump posted on true social saying Santos had
• 9:08
  Speaker 9: been horribly treated in prison.
• 9:09
  Speaker 7: And he was ordering his immediate release.
• 9:13
  Speaker 9: And now not only did Trump commute his sentence, he
• 9:16
  Speaker 9: also just wiped his slate completely clean, including removing his probation,
• 9:21
  Speaker 9: his fines, his supervised release, and his restitution. I think
• 9:25
  Speaker 9: the restitution part is important because he had been told
• 9:28
  Speaker 9: that he had to pay back three hundred and seventy
• 9:30
  Speaker 9: thousand dollars to his victims. Now, if you remember, he
• 9:34
  Speaker 9: had been convicted of stealing money from a fundraiser for
• 9:37
  Speaker 9: a six service doll from a Navy veteran. His supporters,
• 9:42
  Speaker 9: including Marjorie Taylor Green, they argued that his punishment was
• 9:45
  Speaker 9: too harsh and that his time in solitary confinement was unfair,
• 9:48
  Speaker 9: But records show that Santos had actually requested to be
• 9:51
  Speaker 9: in solitary confinement for his sanity and his safety. And
• 9:54
  Speaker 9: the backlash over his release is being felt on both
• 9:57
  Speaker 9: sides of the aisle, with some Republicans saying the move
• 10:00
  Speaker 9: rewards bad behavior and undermines public trust in leadership.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, did did Trump ever say why he decided to
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: pardon George Sanda?
• 10:08
  Speaker 9: Well, he just said that a lot of people asked
• 10:11
  Speaker 9: him to. The only person that has come out and
• 10:13
  Speaker 9: said that they asked him to was Marjorie Taylor Green.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: So you know, you gotta laugh at the judicial system
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: at this point, right, And anybody who if you're cool
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: with Trump, you really don't serve much time. You ain't
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: got to pay restitution, you ain't on probation. I heard
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: him this morning, Santo say that he was lucky. They
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: were like, well, are you gonna payr victims back? He goes,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: whatever the court makes me do, it is what I'm
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: going to do. So anything over that, Nope.
• 10:37
  Speaker 7: You don't even care, Like no, and he has to
• 10:40
  Speaker 7: do none of that.
• 10:41
  Speaker 9: Things to Trump and b so We will continue to
• 10:45
  Speaker 9: see what happens with that. But he is out of
• 10:47
  Speaker 9: jail this morning and a free man. All right, Well,
• 10:49
  Speaker 9: coming up at seven, the growing problem that has everyone
• 10:53
  Speaker 9: screening their calls.
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: Will tell you what it is and how to fight back.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: All right, everybody else, get it off your chest. Eight
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: need to vent, phone lines wide open again. Eight hundred

  Speaker 13: Chicago over the weekend on one of the opening tour dates,
• 19:07
  Speaker 13: and a emergency happened. So Brandy is on stage, her
• 19:12
  Speaker 13: sound begins to mess up, and then and then she
• 19:15
  Speaker 13: actually walks off stage trying to fix it.
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: Let's take a listen to Brandy on stage.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: You mean.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: That sounds horrible that her attle bit.
• 19:44
  Speaker 13: Oh look, so listen that that was her issue. So
• 19:48
  Speaker 13: she was saying that there was something wrong with the sound.
• 19:50
  Speaker 13: She go when she walks off stage during the song,
• 19:52
  Speaker 13: she goes to the side to like the audio booth
• 19:54
  Speaker 13: that's normally sitting on the side, and you see her
• 19:57
  Speaker 13: talking with them. She's trying to figure something out. But
• 20:00
  Speaker 13: then she didn't return to the stage at all for
• 20:02
  Speaker 13: the rest.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: Of the sho Yeah, and by the way, she did
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: sound good on her way out, right, Like she still
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: sounded good on the way out too, But.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: I thought so too.
• 20:09
  Speaker 13: But I mean, according to her, you know how, she
• 20:12
  Speaker 13: felt it wasn't what she needed it to be. So
• 20:14
  Speaker 13: she's on the side of the stage. There's a bunch
• 20:16
  Speaker 13: of fan videos of them recording her going back and
• 20:18
  Speaker 13: forth with the audio engineers, just trying to figure things out.
• 20:20
  Speaker 13: She doesn't return, so then Monica comes out and finishes
• 20:24
  Speaker 13: the rest of the set. Uh, let's take a listen
• 20:26
  Speaker 13: to Monica because they don't get to hear this night
• 20:28
  Speaker 13: in Chicago Saturday the boy's mind.
• 20:30
  Speaker 8: Let's take a listen to Monica.
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: I definitely when to say it's on the.
• 20:35
  Speaker 8: Share of the stage with Brandy. Now I'm saying you
• 20:41
  Speaker 8: spoke about in my heart.
• 20:42
  Speaker 12: It took twenty seven years to figure out what we
• 20:45
  Speaker 12: were supposed to be. And when I'm realizing this, we
• 20:48
  Speaker 12: allowed too many other people in the midst of what
• 20:52
  Speaker 12: was just supposed to be us.
• 20:55
  Speaker 8: So and on just the way out here as I'm saying,
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: all around.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: This, okay, I might be going death because it's off
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: for me to hear what they were saying. So was
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: it the sound or was it dehydration?
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: Because Lauren I saw the next day that it was
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: like some dehydration stuff, but nobody sounded dehydrated.
• 21:30
  Speaker 13: So the next day, because fans were trying to figure
• 21:32
  Speaker 13: out what was going on, there were a lot of
• 21:33
  Speaker 13: people upset, but there were a lot of people concerned
• 21:35
  Speaker 13: because Brandy just walked off the stage and didn't finished
• 21:38
  Speaker 13: come back out. So Brandy posted a letter to the fans,
• 21:40
  Speaker 13: and she said, I sincerely apologized for the abrupt into
• 21:42
  Speaker 13: last night's performance in Chicago. After a few weeks of
• 21:45
  Speaker 13: non stop rehearsals, last night, I experienced dehydration and feeling
• 21:48
  Speaker 13: of wanting to think. Everyone involved agreed that prioritizing my
• 21:51
  Speaker 13: well being was the utmost importance. I still made the
• 21:54
  Speaker 13: decision to try and return and give them my all,
• 21:56
  Speaker 13: despite not feeling okay with having to make some adjustments
• 21:58
  Speaker 13: in the show. Being very tech, unfortunately, it was impossible
• 22:02
  Speaker 13: to fully connect sonically with the production.
• 22:04
  Speaker 8: I really appreciate everyone's best effort.
• 22:06
  Speaker 13: I'm deeply grateful to my sister Monica for stepping up
• 22:09
  Speaker 13: with such grace and professionalism, and the entire crew for
• 22:12
  Speaker 13: their continued support. I went from the arena to see
• 22:14
  Speaker 13: a doctor nearby, and I've taken the proper precautions to
• 22:17
  Speaker 13: help me moving forward. Your understanding patients and unwavering belief
• 22:21
  Speaker 13: in the belief, belief and mean the world to me.
• 22:24
  Speaker 13: I look forward to returning to the stage stronger and
• 22:26
  Speaker 13: more grateful than ever, alongside my girl Monica.
• 22:29
  Speaker 8: Tonight in Indianapolis. So and that's what happened.
• 22:32
  Speaker 13: They got back on the stage last night Sunday night
• 22:35
  Speaker 13: in Indianapolis and were able to get through the show.
• 22:37
  Speaker 8: The crowd was able to hear the boy's mind. But
• 22:39
  Speaker 8: I mean it sounds like a little bit of both.
• 22:40
  Speaker 13: Just to answer your question, like there were some technical
• 22:42
  Speaker 13: things going on, but she physically wasn't feeling okay.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: Sure, and then you still couldn't tell you because she
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: was still bobbing and all that bombinga weaving and doing
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: a thing.
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: And she sounded good.
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: She always sounds great.
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: But if it was the idration, did you see what
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: they be having on they do be performing like day outside,
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: like the big gass coats and they.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: Everything.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, they got to take some of them
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: layers off.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: They be having air conditions and fans inside all of
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: those outfits.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: I know, but it is it's people will be quick
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: to believe she was ready to line with me.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Now in some of those costumes, they do have fans
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: when they had to wear the head piece, but not
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: not those type of costumes. But my whole thing is
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: so you will find you were dehydrated on on Saturday
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: but then you perform on Sunday. No problem, that's I mean,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: I do I get my money back, because if I
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: wanted to see the boy's mind, but it wasn't the
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: whole show. She did came shut up a queen, some queens, man, queen,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: queen ben queen's motion, be queens, It's all right.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: The boy is still yours, the boy will always be.
• 24:00
  Speaker 8: And the date this is the beginning of the tourist.
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: I know it's.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: But I do like the Ouphis though. They just looked

  Speaker 5: like they about to come in for Christmas. Though, you know,
• 24:11

  Speaker 5: No no, no, she did have had them, but she

  Speaker 5: took it off because she had the short ball under
• 24:34

  Speaker 9: identified twenty three year old Keon King of Delaware as
• 27:04
  Speaker 9: a suspect. Now, King surrendered to police last week and
• 27:07
  Speaker 9: was charged with kidnapping, but Scott is still missing. And
• 27:10
  Speaker 9: then on Saturday, police announced a heartbreaking discovery. Human remains
• 27:14
  Speaker 9: were found in a shallow grave behind an abandoned middle school,
• 27:18
  Speaker 9: not far from where Scott disappeared. Now the Deputy Commissioner,
• 27:21
  Speaker 9: John Stanford says officers were led to the site after
• 27:24
  Speaker 9: receiving a very specific, anonymous tip on Friday night.
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: Now the remains appear to be about.
• 27:29
  Speaker 9: A week old and have been sent to the medical
• 27:31
  Speaker 9: examiner for identification. At the community, they have been deeply
• 27:36
  Speaker 9: passionate about this case, searching daily, organizing on social media,
• 27:40
  Speaker 9: and at times yelling at police to do more. When
• 27:43
  Speaker 9: the remains were found, many gathered at the scene, frustrated
• 27:46
  Speaker 9: and emotional, saying officers should have done more, faster, and
• 27:50
  Speaker 9: sooner to help locate her. The investigators say they are
• 27:54
  Speaker 9: aware of the growing frustration and address the community's concerns.
• 27:57
  Speaker 7: Let's listen to that.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: Listen.
• 27:59
  Speaker 16: I am not a fit it by the passion that
• 28:02
  Speaker 16: you know, some of the you know, remarks that have
• 28:04
  Speaker 16: been made as we were walking back.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: I'm not offended at all, because.
• 28:08
  Speaker 16: That's people's emotion, and this is an emotional situation, and
• 28:11
  Speaker 16: so it's it's to be understood. However, I know what
• 28:15
  Speaker 16: we have done and in the amount of hours that
• 28:19
  Speaker 16: have been put into this process of trying to locate
• 28:22
  Speaker 16: miss Scott.
• 28:23
  Speaker 9: Yeah, hopefully say the suspect in the case, twenty three
• 28:26
  Speaker 9: year old Keon King, could be tied to other killings.
• 28:29
  Speaker 9: And again, police have not officially confirmed the identity of
• 28:32
  Speaker 9: the remains, only that they were found in the same
• 28:34
  Speaker 9: area where miss Scott disappeared, and they have been focused
• 28:38
  Speaker 9: on that area for about two weeks.
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: So people will continue to watch that.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Case I hate and despise humans like Keon King, Like
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: I really feel like you got to make examples out
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: of people who do things like this.
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I don't know what happened to
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: the young lady, the details of it, but clearly she
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: got you know, killed, and then you just disregard her
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: body like it's nothing, like you know what I mean,
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Like I just don't even understand how people like that.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: Operate, Like, I mean, how do you do that? And
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: then just go get a sandwich app? You know what
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: I'm saying?
• 29:06
  Speaker 7: Like how exactly?
• 29:08
  Speaker 9: So we will continue to watch that he's already been
• 29:10
  Speaker 9: found guilty of kidnapping her, and so once the medical
• 29:14
  Speaker 9: examiner does their job and they come back with the results,
• 29:17
  Speaker 9: we will definitely bring those to you guys.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: People like that, people like that don't ever deserve peace.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: I hope that you know that young lady haunts him
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: for the rest of his life.
• 29:27
  Speaker 9: Absolutely so young too, all right, Well, from tragedy in
• 29:33
  Speaker 9: Philadelphia to high drama overseas, a story straight out of
• 29:36
  Speaker 9: a movie unfolding at the Louver in Paris. Now French
• 29:40
  Speaker 9: officials they say a team of four thieves they pulled
• 29:43
  Speaker 9: off a daring daytime heights at the Louver Museum in
• 29:46
  Speaker 9: Paris on Sunday, stealing royal jews, jewels once worn by
• 29:50
  Speaker 9: the Queen of France and other royal officials.
• 29:53
  Speaker 7: The investigators say.
• 29:54
  Speaker 9: The group arrived with power tools, a crane lift and
• 29:57
  Speaker 9: a getaway planned straight out of a heist film. So
• 30:00
  Speaker 9: they smash display cases from one of the museum's crown
• 30:03
  Speaker 9: jewel galleries.
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: They threatened guards.
• 30:05
  Speaker 9: They sped off on scooters, dropping some of the stolen
• 30:08
  Speaker 9: jewels along the way, including a crown that police later
• 30:11
  Speaker 9: recovered nearby. Now the seven minute break in, it happened
• 30:14
  Speaker 9: just as the museum opened at seven point thirty in
• 30:16
  Speaker 9: the morning, and officials say the thieves they use a
• 30:19
  Speaker 9: truck mounted crane to break in through the first window
• 30:22
  Speaker 9: first floor window, and they believe the group had scoped
• 30:25
  Speaker 9: out the site long before the robbery. Before fleeing, they
• 30:28
  Speaker 9: reportedly tried to set the crane on fire to destroy evidence.
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: Now, the stolen collection what they got away with.
• 30:34
  Speaker 9: Includes necklaces, earrings, tiaras once worn by members of the
• 30:37
  Speaker 9: French royal courts, treasures that officials describe as priceless. No
• 30:42
  Speaker 9: one was hurt, but the museum was evacuated and closed
• 30:45
  Speaker 9: for the rest of the day. And to put this
• 30:46
  Speaker 9: in context, the Louver is home to the Mona Lisa
• 30:49
  Speaker 9: and some of the world's most valuable arts.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: I don't understand. I mean, they've tried before. The security
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: should be top notched, Like, there's no way that anybody
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: should be stealing those jewels and some of those pieces
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: them art, the facts that they have in there, that
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: that that doesn't even seem right. That's crazy.
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: Congratulations of those guys, man, that's impressive. That's a whole
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: little mini series right there.
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: If I were to continued stealing out have probably been
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: on that level by now.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: That's crazy.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: They're smart for them to get that off and broad daylight.
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, come on, now, sometimes you gotta let people
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: get away with things just based off the degree of difficulty,
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: you know what, I mean, what do you do with it?
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: Because you can't sell it?
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: Who can?
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: Who can different sell it?
• 31:34
  Speaker 10: Man?
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Listen, they'll find that fast.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Get rich off of that stuff.
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: Trust me, they got a plan.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: I gotta they probably got a biometic.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: They thought they thought this all the way through, you know,
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, listen, I don't believe in stealing, but when
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: they do stealing, it's impressive. At this level, you gotta
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: give it up for sometimes you gotta give a little
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: roud of applause, like wow, that was impressive thought that,
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: you know, like all right.
• 31:58
  Speaker 17: Y'all, well that.
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: It is impressive.
• 32:07
  Speaker 13: But you know, we gonna say it's still wrong, so
• 32:09
  Speaker 13: you just see what happens.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Definitely wrong. It's definitely wrong.
• 32:13
  Speaker 7: So we'll see what happens with that.

  Speaker 3: for being real and a lot of things that we
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: say is real. It's like when somebody gangster with somebody,
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: you know, we call them tough. But to me, the
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: most realist thing you could do as you get older
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: just be vulnerable, you know what I mean, and go
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: on to.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Journey of healing and share that journey with people. And

  Speaker 6: about mental health while be listening to y'all. You always

  Speaker 2: Absolutely I knew he was gonna read it. Absolutely. Yeah.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: So what got you to the point where he said,
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: this is the time to share the story because most
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: people will say, like, you know, I don't want to
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: share that story. It might be embarrassing, it might make
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: me look this way, but you were open and completely
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: open about it. What got you to that point was like, this.
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: Is the time I had when I had an episode
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: on like twenty nineteen or twenty twenty round COVID, and
• 33:59
  Speaker 6: that was just like after that, I was like, man,
• 34:01
  Speaker 6: I gotta really just hold myself accountable and take care
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: of my health. I don't never want to have an
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: episode again. I'm like, I'm gonna see a therapist. If
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: I had to take medicine, I just I kind of
• 34:09
  Speaker 6: like through the towelnd like, you know what I need
• 34:12
  Speaker 6: to do to get better. I just did never want
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: to have that happen again. And then my wife was
• 34:16
  Speaker 6: pregnant with my little boy, and I'm like, I don't
• 34:18
  Speaker 6: never want to I don't want to raise a family.
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: And then my mental health gone with. If I have
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: an episode, I can't come back from you know what
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. So I just like starting to do the
• 34:26
  Speaker 6: work and like start seeking the help.
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: Keisha, I'm glad you here because we always have conversations
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: about the people who have to deal with the individuals
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: with the mental mental health issues.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: It feels like nobody else speaks to y'all.
• 34:40
  Speaker 17: It's tough.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: What what made you not run?
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Because you could have ran, You could have been like,
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: I'm not this ain't for me, but you still ten
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: toes down and say I'm gone.
• 34:49
  Speaker 18: I experienced him going through episodes before we were married,
• 34:52
  Speaker 18: and I was like, man, somebody gotta help this guy.
• 34:56
  Speaker 17: It was really, really bad. It's really sad.
• 34:58
  Speaker 18: Because you're seeing some when you don't know they're saying
• 35:02
  Speaker 18: things to you that are disrespectful, so mean, and you
• 35:04
  Speaker 18: have to just like, but I'm not talking to Gucci,
• 35:07
  Speaker 18: who is this person? So I felt like if I left,
• 35:11
  Speaker 18: he wouldn't have been the same. He needed someone to
• 35:15
  Speaker 18: help him. And then when we were supposed to get married,
• 35:17
  Speaker 18: someone said to me, you know you're going to have
• 35:19
  Speaker 18: to deal with this through your marriage, right, And I'm like,
• 35:21
  Speaker 18: I'm cool with it.
• 35:22
  Speaker 17: I'm going to fix him.
• 35:23
  Speaker 13: You know how heavy was that for you? Though, because
• 35:26
  Speaker 13: the fixing isn't like an overnight thing. I saw Gucci
• 35:29
  Speaker 13: you did a big facts and you were talking about
• 35:31
  Speaker 13: how one time you said to him, I should record
• 35:33
  Speaker 13: this so that you can see because he wouldn't even
• 35:35
  Speaker 13: remember some of the things he was doing, but it
• 35:37
  Speaker 13: would like you'd be like, oh my god, like what's
• 35:39
  Speaker 13: happening right now? How heavy was it in the process
• 35:42
  Speaker 13: of trying to help him get back.
• 35:43
  Speaker 18: It was one point I had to just go on
• 35:44
  Speaker 18: my knees and pray because it's like he's like I
• 35:47
  Speaker 18: don't like you. I mean, the things he would say
• 35:50
  Speaker 18: are really really bad, and I just have to like
• 35:53
  Speaker 18: take a deep breath. Like I said, I'm not talking
• 35:55
  Speaker 18: to you right now. You want to sit here and
• 35:57
  Speaker 18: be crazy alone, I'm not going to allow you.
• 35:59
  Speaker 17: To be crazy alone. So like I have to like
• 36:02
  Speaker 17: set a plan up.
• 36:04
  Speaker 18: Like at one point, I called his attorney, I called
• 36:07
  Speaker 18: some bodyguards, and I just planned a whole kidnap and
• 36:10
  Speaker 18: we kidnapped him and took him to the hospital because
• 36:12
  Speaker 18: we could not get him to the hospital. But he
• 36:15
  Speaker 18: was trying to fight them and everything, but it was
• 36:17
  Speaker 18: six of them. He couldn't handle it, and we threw
• 36:19
  Speaker 18: him in the car. He would try to jump out
• 36:21
  Speaker 18: the car, so we put him in the center of
• 36:22
  Speaker 18: the car, you know, And that was like his last
• 36:25
  Speaker 18: episode when you go to the Yeah, but they try
• 36:32
  Speaker 18: to do things where he could sign himself out and
• 36:34
  Speaker 18: I'm like, he's not signed, Like I'm stern with him.
• 36:36
  Speaker 18: He's not signing himself out. I'm his wife and I'm
• 36:39
  Speaker 18: his far of attorney. He ain't going nowhere Like.
• 36:41
  Speaker 17: I have to be strict. It's kind of like you
• 36:43
  Speaker 17: have to go in mother mode, you know, and put
• 36:45
  Speaker 17: your foot down.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: Were you ever scared?
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: I wasn't never.
• 36:49
  Speaker 18: Scared he would hurt me. People were scared for me.
• 36:52
  Speaker 18: But it's a scary moment.
• 36:55
  Speaker 6: As I asked her that was she scared, she was like,
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: I'm not scared of you.
• 36:58
  Speaker 17: I tell him all the time during it, I'm not
• 36:59
  Speaker 17: scared you.
• 37:00
  Speaker 18: So you we gonna figure this out, like I have
• 37:02
  Speaker 18: to get gangsterill with him because he and I'm like,
• 37:04
  Speaker 18: all right, we gonna see.
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: Let's do this.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: And the ice Cream Fever Dreams Chapter guc You said
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: that the only you said when you need help, the
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: only person you can rely on is yourself.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: Yes, Why did you feel that way in that moment?
• 37:20
  Speaker 6: Because that's how I felt, especially like you're really the
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: only person you can Like, you gotta do the work yourself.
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. If you want to like
• 37:26
  Speaker 6: really get better, people can want it for you. But
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: you still gotta want it more than they do. You
• 37:30
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. You gotta want, you gotta do
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: the work, you gotta live with it, you know what
• 37:34
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. So that's probably why I said that.
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: The reason I asked is because you start the book
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: off talking about Big Scar, and you know you and
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: Ke should definitely help Big Scar in that moment when
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: he was having an episode.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: Yes, I mean you did help somebody.
• 37:47
  Speaker 6: I was trying my best to say Scar. I'll try
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: my best to say Scar, and like even he was
• 37:52
  Speaker 6: a big inspiration for the book as well. But what
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: was like when I reached out to my right the
• 37:57
  Speaker 6: co writer Cat and writing a book. I was telling
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: her about you know, like how hw I helped Scott
• 38:02
  Speaker 6: and you know, my wife was talking to me, but
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: she was on like I wouldn't even let Scott know
• 38:06
  Speaker 6: that she was telling me the stuff to tell him
• 38:08
  Speaker 6: it like while we're writing a book, like discussing the
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: book and just going over how we're gonna make it.
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: Scott died, so I hear her like you know, Scott
• 38:14
  Speaker 6: had passed away. It was all it went for him
• 38:16
  Speaker 6: being an inspiration. Before I can finish the book he
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: passed away. So that was just super deep and then
• 38:21
  Speaker 6: made me like, I gotta do this. I gotta even
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: be more vulnerable because I'm gonna help people that I
• 38:25
  Speaker 6: don't even know I was, because I was trying to
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: help somebody who was so close to me, you know
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. And I didn't even and I didn't succeed.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: You know when you break down in the book that
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: September thirteenth episode, right, Yeah, and you said you don't
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: even remember a lot of the things that you said.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: Did you have to go back and say, you know what,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: let me fix some of those situations? Yes? And who
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: did you called first to say let me fix that?
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Cause we were on there that morning and we just remembers,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: like damn, Gucci just going crazy on everybody and the
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: sad week, and the sad thing about it is for
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: media pressed, it's like that's gold at first, like oh
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: this that, and the other day when you sit back
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: and look at to be like damn, like maybe we
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: shouldn't have went that hard and promoted because we can
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: see now that he was going through episode So.
• 39:07
  Speaker 6: About the media's role in that, Yeah, But the answer envy,
• 39:10
  Speaker 6: I was super embarrassed and hurt by the things I
• 39:13
  Speaker 6: said because like I wasn't well then, right, So then
• 39:16
  Speaker 6: I got locked up. So a lot of those people
• 39:18
  Speaker 6: who I was saying stuff too, they were like, I ain't.
• 39:20
  Speaker 6: They never gonna mess with me no more. So even
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: when I got out three years later, I still was like,
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: I apologize to Ross, Drake, Nikki like all them. People
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: accept my apologies. They just don't know. It's like a
• 39:31
  Speaker 6: weight off my shoulders because I had been like because
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: I was wrong, Like Ross hadn't did nothing but helped me,
• 39:36
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. And I said something about him,
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: Burt Man that all this stuff for me, Why would
• 39:40
  Speaker 6: I say something about him? So I felt bad, you
• 39:42
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. I felt terribly bad, and it
• 39:44
  Speaker 6: was just eat me. It was like it was super
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: heavy on me, you know what I'm saying. So I
• 39:49
  Speaker 6: apologize to everybody. Everybody that would have scept my apology
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: that I apologized, everybody who would acept my call. I
• 39:55
  Speaker 6: apologize to you. Just think anybody who I was dissing,
• 39:58
  Speaker 6: I apologize.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: When you see artists doing that, now, do you know
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: exactly what they're going through?
• 40:03
  Speaker 6: Yes, we were like since it's going through episode. I
• 40:07
  Speaker 6: can see it because because I'd have been through it,
• 40:09
  Speaker 6: and I'm like, I be feeling sorry for him, you
• 40:11
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. But because I see the media,
• 40:13
  Speaker 6: they just go with it like this person like mad
• 40:16
  Speaker 6: or they being you know, like mean or whatever. But
• 40:18
  Speaker 6: they be like going through something really mental. It'd be
• 40:20
  Speaker 6: some mental help stuff going on.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Do you reach out to any of those artists I'm.
• 40:24
  Speaker 6: Trying to think, did I reach out now? I don't
• 40:25
  Speaker 6: do a lot of reaching out because some of them,
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: like I feel like they wouldn't be accepting of it,
• 40:30
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying.
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: But because you know, you wouldn't be accepted at the
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: point at that.
• 40:33
  Speaker 6: Time, Yeah, at that point you can't. You can't really
• 40:35
  Speaker 6: talk to them like that. But like my wife said,
• 40:38
  Speaker 6: I wish I could talk to the people that know
• 40:39
  Speaker 6: them to tell them how to help them, you know
• 40:42
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying.
• 40:43
  Speaker 18: I tried to reach out to Kim when Kanye was
• 40:46
  Speaker 18: going through an episode. It bothered me so much, but
• 40:48
  Speaker 18: I don't know her and I didn't want.
• 40:50
  Speaker 17: To feel like a groupie.
• 40:51
  Speaker 18: Yeah, so I tried to send messages to people. I
• 40:54
  Speaker 18: never succeeded. But this was during their marriage. I'm like, damn,
• 40:57
  Speaker 18: I want to talk to her so bad, like I
• 40:58
  Speaker 18: can help you, but I never was successful.
• 41:01
  Speaker 13: We talked about that on air the other day because
• 41:02
  Speaker 13: she sat down with her daddy and talked about what
• 41:05
  Speaker 13: it was like on the inside by also trying to
• 41:08
  Speaker 13: protect their public image in the way she thought people
• 41:11
  Speaker 13: would look at her if she decided to leave.
• 41:13
  Speaker 8: For you, what was it like, I mean could talk
• 41:15
  Speaker 8: about Kim.
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: What was it like?
• 41:17
  Speaker 13: Just trying to protect the business that you guys have built. Wow,
• 41:20
  Speaker 13: I have a personally. I take his apps off his phone.
• 41:24
  Speaker 17: First thing I do.
• 41:24
  Speaker 18: I delete Instagram, I delete everything. Even if I got
• 41:27
  Speaker 18: to change his password, I'm changing it because I don't
• 41:29
  Speaker 18: need the public to know he's having an episode. And
• 41:32
  Speaker 18: now before the episodes come, I catch it. So that's
• 41:36
  Speaker 18: why he hasn't had another one. And how you catch
• 41:39
  Speaker 18: that is he doesn't speak to you, he wants to
• 41:41
  Speaker 18: be left alone. He don't eat, he does not sleep.
• 41:44
  Speaker 18: Text messages there's a period after each word, and I'm like,
• 41:49
  Speaker 18: you're going through an episode.
• 41:50
  Speaker 17: You're sick. No, I'm not, ain't and wrong with me?
• 41:53
  Speaker 18: Why do you think that you're not speaking to me, well,
• 41:55
  Speaker 18: there's nothing to talk about.
• 41:56
  Speaker 17: I said, well, that's not how you speak to your wife.
• 41:59
  Speaker 17: And I'm like, you're sick and we snap out of
• 42:02
  Speaker 17: it right then?
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: Wow, wow, Keisha, do you wish you around? When you
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: know I look at Gucci and if you really think
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: about all the artists that he has touched and could
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: have signed, he could have been bigger than any label
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: out there. If you go through them. We can go
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: from from Thug to Waka, to the Migos to the list.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: Goes on and on and on. Do you think we
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: had Walker Wago?
• 42:21
  Speaker 14: Yeah?
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Do you think if I was there I could have
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: helped him build that empire because he could have been
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: really like an Atlanta death Chain.
• 42:28
  Speaker 18: A thousand person even like we had this conversation many
• 42:31
  Speaker 18: years ago. I said, Gucci, you just have to accept
• 42:34
  Speaker 18: that you are not well and fix it.
• 42:36
  Speaker 17: Just accept it. I said, people take tal n all
• 42:39
  Speaker 17: every day.
• 42:39
  Speaker 18: Just take your medication every day.
• 42:41
  Speaker 17: You'll be fine.
• 42:42
  Speaker 18: Just accept that you're sick, fix it and you'll be okay.
• 42:45
  Speaker 18: And absolutely, he had so many artists from back in
• 42:48
  Speaker 18: the day, and because of this, you know, they re
• 42:51
  Speaker 18: signed with other people or whatever the situation is. And
• 42:54
  Speaker 18: it pisses me off because none of them respects him.
• 42:57
  Speaker 18: I don't or give him the credit like Gucci's me.
• 43:00
  Speaker 18: Gucci's the one that got me out the slum. Gucci's
• 43:02
  Speaker 18: the one that changed my life. None of them talks
• 43:04
  Speaker 18: about that, not.
• 43:05
  Speaker 17: One of them.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: It's that ball because it's it's a lot of artists
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: that are multi platinum that are still selling records that
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: you were the first person to give an opportunity to.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: We can name a listen if the list goes on
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: and on.
• 43:16
  Speaker 6: I feel like, you know, I had to hold myself accountable.
• 43:18
  Speaker 6: I got locked up. I messed up the opportunity, you
• 43:21
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. But I'm not saying that they
• 43:23
  Speaker 6: don't have to pay me how much I appreciate it,
• 43:26
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. But it's like that's part
• 43:27
  Speaker 6: of how I was raised, Just who I am. I
• 43:28
  Speaker 6: get fulfillment out of hipping artists, you know what I'm saying.
• 43:31
  Speaker 6: I was reaching met out to them, trying to help
• 43:33
  Speaker 6: them because I saw talent in them and not just
• 43:35
  Speaker 6: Southern artists, not just Southern artists, DJ whatever. That's just
• 43:39
  Speaker 6: like who I am, you know what I'm saying, Like
• 43:41
  Speaker 6: I'm an open door studio. I'm gonna bring people in.
• 43:43
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna work with the up and coming. That's what
• 43:45
  Speaker 6: I like to do. You get what I'm saying. If
• 43:47
  Speaker 6: it didn't work out the way it did because I
• 43:48
  Speaker 6: got locked up, I got to say, Hey, I got
• 43:50
  Speaker 6: myself locked up. You know, I messed that up. But
• 43:53
  Speaker 6: since then, I've been doing I've been doing well. Since
• 43:56
  Speaker 6: I got out, I've been on it, you know what
• 43:57
  Speaker 6: I'm saying, been a whole different. Everything been going good.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: I always wondered, did any of those artists reach out
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: when you were locked up and said, let me help?
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: Damn, let me say this.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: Though she said nope, let me say this.
• 44:07
  Speaker 6: It is still kind of like paying it forward because
• 44:09
  Speaker 6: when I got an all those artists did come back
• 44:11
  Speaker 6: and do songs with me, you know what I'm saying.
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: But when you down, did they help?
• 44:14
  Speaker 6: They didn't.
• 44:16
  Speaker 17: They don't acknowledge him.
• 44:17
  Speaker 18: He doesn't care or feel that way, but from the
• 44:20
  Speaker 18: outside looking in, they should acknowledge him.
• 44:23
  Speaker 17: You know, I feel like.
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: Gucci gets looked at as a hip hop pillar, though
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: I feel like he's like, look, I feel like Gucci.
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: Gets just do as an iconic figure. And hip hop
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: and all the artists he put on No but.
• 44:36
  Speaker 18: Would you like to see Key like I would like them,
• 44:40
  Speaker 18: all of them to acknowledge him, even if they win
• 44:42
  Speaker 18: an award. Acknowledge him because he gave you the stomping ground.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: Most people don't know Nicki Minaj came out of that
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: camp French Montana. Half those people we know, but most
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: people don't know that. Migosgosuff like most.
• 44:56
  Speaker 17: People because they don't say it.
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: I love loved the chapter Pills and posting too, because
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: you said you feel guilty for making the song Pills,
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: because you made a whole generation start getting high on pills.
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: How do you rectify that guilt.
• 45:12
  Speaker 6: I can live with it now because it's like it
• 45:13
  Speaker 6: is the what it is, you know what I'm saying.
• 45:15
  Speaker 6: But back then, I know that I like made a
• 45:17
  Speaker 6: lot of people use drugs. I talked about drugs, drugs, drugs,
• 45:20
  Speaker 6: drugs all through my music because that's what I was
• 45:22
  Speaker 6: on back then. And I'm just like, damn, I know
• 45:24
  Speaker 6: I made a whole bunch of people think pills was cool.
• 45:26
  Speaker 6: I know that for a fact. You know what I'm saying,
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: and that ain't nothing. I'm just super proud of you know,
• 45:30
  Speaker 6: but what can I do? It's in the past now.
• 45:32
  Speaker 6: And at the same time it was I was also
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: a user too, so I was going through.
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: It with them. The interesting thing about that chapter two,
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: you said that your whole team didn't like that song.
• 45:42
  Speaker 6: They didn't.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: I'm old because I'm sure some of them was on
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: pills too, So what was it just they didn't.
• 45:46
  Speaker 6: Like when I first, like even when I had like
• 45:48
  Speaker 6: one foot then one foot out. A lot of my
• 45:50
  Speaker 6: guys who were hustling. We used to think I would like,
• 45:52
  Speaker 6: my crew are hustling, but it's they just think like
• 45:55
  Speaker 6: pills and stuff like that was like jacket stuff, you
• 45:57
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. They thinking like, if you do coke,
• 45:59
  Speaker 6: eat like a jacket, you take pills, you're a jackie.
• 46:01
  Speaker 6: They all that was cool with with smoking weed, even
• 46:04
  Speaker 6: taking a dragon lane. They thought it was some jagging stuff, right,
• 46:06
  Speaker 6: So they really they said, take away from the money,
• 46:08
  Speaker 6: you see what I'm saying. So it's like, if you're
• 46:10
  Speaker 6: doing if you're taking pills, you supposed to be selling
• 46:12
  Speaker 6: the pills. So when I came out with pills, they
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: went with that. They was like, bro, what you making
• 46:16
  Speaker 6: a song? About taking pills for me. Then the song
• 46:18
  Speaker 6: ended up blowing up, but there was like they didn't
• 46:21
  Speaker 6: like the song.
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: Yeap when you did versus? Right, what was your mind
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: framed during versus and Keisha when he you knew he
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: was doing versus against somebody that was his arch enemy
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: at the time, right, what was your mind frame because
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: you knew at any moment it could have went back.
• 46:36
  Speaker 8: Did you want him to do it?
• 46:37
  Speaker 17: I told him not to.
• 46:39
  Speaker 18: I said, you're not doing that. I said, I will
• 46:41
  Speaker 18: pay you a million dollars not to do this.
• 46:43
  Speaker 6: She told me that it'swear to God. Like I tell
• 46:45
  Speaker 6: you a million dollars not to do the verses. I'm like,
• 46:47
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna do the verses.
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: So how for people that don't know, how did that
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: verses come about? And what was your mind to do
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: the souls that you did in that moment, because I mean,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: I think everybody felt it. People that were they were.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: Like, oh, this is gonna end up nasty.
• 47:03
  Speaker 6: Well, I'm trying to think. I heard I seen the
• 47:06
  Speaker 6: interview what Jesus saying like if I do it versus,
• 47:09
  Speaker 6: I want to do it with Gucci.
• 47:10
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 47:11
  Speaker 6: So after that he had hit me like bro you
• 47:14
  Speaker 6: heard Jesus say he wanted to do a verse with you,
• 47:15
  Speaker 6: would you do it? And I was like, I don't
• 47:17
  Speaker 6: know if I do that. I don't know if I
• 47:18
  Speaker 6: want to do no verse. I ain't really really yet.
• 47:21
  Speaker 6: Then he came back like, bro, I think this would
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: be big if you do it. So next thing, you know,
• 47:25
  Speaker 6: Swiss and Larry Jackson end up hearing me and we
• 47:28
  Speaker 6: end up doing We're gonna do the verses right, And
• 47:30
  Speaker 6: my mind frame going into it was like it's going
• 47:32
  Speaker 6: it was. I was excited about it, like because all
• 47:35
  Speaker 6: the previous verses were so big. So I'm like, man,
• 47:37
  Speaker 6: it's dope. You know what I'm saying. It's gonna be
• 47:39
  Speaker 6: big for me. Everybody gonna be like my catalog gonna
• 47:41
  Speaker 6: go up, people gonna just so I was looking and
• 47:43
  Speaker 6: I was excited about it.
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: And when oh, actually Gesz said, he said here on
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: Breakfast Club, he wanted to do it with you, but
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: you turned it down.
• 47:52
  Speaker 19: I mean, I mean to be honest with you, like
• 47:53
  Speaker 19: from what I hear he did respectfully the client, which
• 47:56
  Speaker 19: I respect. You know what I'm saying, no, no disrespect,
• 47:58
  Speaker 19: And you know, I guess he looked the way I
• 48:00
  Speaker 19: look at it just like yo, bro, like, ain't nobody
• 48:03
  Speaker 19: else they want to see us with and for once,
• 48:07
  Speaker 19: at least mentally it can be about the music and
• 48:10
  Speaker 19: you know, instead of it just being me and him
• 48:14
  Speaker 19: and our personal feelings. Is like, now you got the
• 48:16
  Speaker 19: world watching. So as a man, I wasn't gonna not
• 48:19
  Speaker 19: do it because of what happened, because that's what the
• 48:22
  Speaker 19: platform was for.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: That's what that conversation was that was back in twenty twenty.
• 48:27
  Speaker 6: I don't think I turned it down. I don't think
• 48:29
  Speaker 6: I think I turned out during Versus period, but I
• 48:32
  Speaker 6: was open to do the verses when they finally broke
• 48:34
  Speaker 6: it down to me, like okay, just the business about it,
• 48:36
  Speaker 6: this going, all this good can come out of it,
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: and I'm like, okay, I'm gonna do it.
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: Did y'all think it was KESHI? You didn't want to
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: do it because you knew he could potentially have an
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: episode of.
• 48:44
  Speaker 17: No, I just don't trust it. I don't know.
• 48:47
  Speaker 18: God forbid GC go say the wrong thing and things
• 48:51
  Speaker 18: pop off.
• 48:52
  Speaker 17: I ain't got the time.
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: WI were you when he was doing Versus?
• 48:54
  Speaker 17: I was pregnant at home.
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: No, he didn't want me there, So you were watching it.
• 48:58
  Speaker 18: My hands was wet and I'm nervous. I'm like, Lord,
• 49:01
  Speaker 18: Jesus helped me.
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: He did that song. What were you thinking when he
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: did that song? What do you think that that song?
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 49:06
  Speaker 18: Oh my, I'm just like this, like every like any
• 49:08
  Speaker 18: normal person. I'm in the bed watching it like everybody else, scared.
• 49:13
  Speaker 13: And Jesus you said you were lucky that Sorry, sorry, sorry,
• 49:16
  Speaker 13: Gucci you said that you were happy that Jeez took
• 49:20
  Speaker 13: the moment to kind of like kind of shift the energy.
• 49:22
  Speaker 6: I would say, in hindsight, I'm like, I respect the
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: what he did, what he said, you know what I'm saying,
• 49:27
  Speaker 6: And uh, you know what he said made sense, you
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. But at that moment, in the moment,
• 49:33
  Speaker 6: like he's at the moment, I was thinking, like I'm
• 49:35
  Speaker 6: happy he said that. The moment, I was just like, man,
• 49:38
  Speaker 6: what is he talking about? You know what I'm saying,
• 49:40
  Speaker 6: Let's get on to the what we're doing.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: I ain't.
• 49:43
  Speaker 6: But when I look back on and I'm like, that
• 49:45
  Speaker 6: was smart. You know what I'm saying. That was smart
• 49:47
  Speaker 6: and it was deep.
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: Did y'all speak before y'all did diversity person y'all just
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: speak before here. How was that conversation with that the
• 49:52

  Speaker 6: Up, and he got up and moved.
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: He got up and move.
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: That's funny because I remember fifty John said the first
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: time they see each other was on a flight. They
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: were both it's like you can't wild out there, so
• 50:50

  Speaker 2: dinner somewhere before.
• 50:54
  Speaker 6: No, we we we met up at a restaurant. YEP,
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: so we had met before. But I'm saying this sin
• 51:01
  Speaker 6: is how I got out. That was like we met
• 51:02
  Speaker 6: at that restaurant way way back, that was like twenty
• 51:06
  Speaker 6: ten or like that.
• 51:07
  Speaker 8: What is it like now?
• 51:08
  Speaker 13: Like have you guys spoken sense versus and you know,
• 51:11
  Speaker 13: both of y'all are so evolved at this point.
• 51:13
  Speaker 6: I did an interview on Big Fast and I'm like,
• 51:14
  Speaker 6: it ain't really been no disrespect since then. Everybody everything cool,
• 51:17
  Speaker 6: but you know they were okay.
• 51:19
  Speaker 8: I saw you say that.
• 51:20
  Speaker 13: Going to East Atlanta sometimes like triggers different episodes for
• 51:24
  Speaker 13: you and you can talk about that.
• 51:26
  Speaker 17: Were you about to say something.
• 51:27
  Speaker 6: No, say it does trigger me going to Eastern Lima.
• 51:29
  Speaker 8: What in writing this.
• 51:30
  Speaker 13: Book, what other things from your upbringing did you realize, like, oh,
• 51:34
  Speaker 13: that was one of my triggers of these episodes and
• 51:36
  Speaker 13: I didn't even know, like family stuff or just you know,
• 51:38
  Speaker 13: stuff from like.
• 51:38
  Speaker 6: Young Yeah, like uh, stuff with my mom triggers me. Uh,
• 51:43
  Speaker 6: we had a lot of screen relationship. Uh stuff for
• 51:47
  Speaker 6: my youth triggered me. You know, old friendships you know
• 51:50
  Speaker 6: that went sour. There's a lot of stuff can be triggered.
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: I get.
• 51:55
  Speaker 6: You know, some songs even trigger me, you know, just
• 51:58
  Speaker 6: from like you said, like screen relationships, like even here
• 52:02
  Speaker 6: so icy. I don't like hearing so icy.
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 52:04
  Speaker 6: You know it's kind of like a trigger. State scrapped
• 52:06
  Speaker 6: would be a trigger, you know what I'm saying, Hearing
• 52:08
  Speaker 6: that like I got ten K on your body, like
• 52:10
  Speaker 6: the wis side probably couldn't have took that, you know,
• 52:13
  Speaker 6: like that would have triggered me.
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: You don't do those songs.
• 52:16
  Speaker 6: You don't do them songs.
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: What trick is you?
• 52:18
  Speaker 12: Boy?
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: East land On? What is it? Burma? Alabama?
• 52:24
  Speaker 6: I would say East Atlanta, but I don't want to.
• 52:27
  Speaker 6: I don't want to. Besma kind of depresses me because
• 52:31
  Speaker 6: it's like when you go down there, it's so like
• 52:34
  Speaker 6: it's like damn. You know what I'm saying. It's it's
• 52:36
  Speaker 6: like damn, it's it's a tough place to grow up at.
• 52:39
  Speaker 6: And when I go back. There's like it dawn to
• 52:40
  Speaker 6: make me cry just looking at the buildings and that
• 52:43
  Speaker 6: because you're from a small town like I'm from. It's
• 52:46
  Speaker 6: so small and rural and like you know, it's there's
• 52:50
  Speaker 6: no money down there, you know what I'm saying. So
• 52:51
  Speaker 6: it just looked it feels dark. East Atlanta is just dangerous.
• 52:56
  Speaker 6: It's still dangerous. Is always gonna be dan it just
• 52:58
  Speaker 6: when I go there, just make me try. It made
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: me like I just it. I almost turned to a
• 53:03
  Speaker 6: different person, like the coners, the blocks, just I just
• 53:07
  Speaker 6: just reliving all the stuff I did on those blocks,
• 53:09
  Speaker 6: you know, the people there. It's just I try to
• 53:13
  Speaker 6: stay away from trickles.
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: And you say, you're even reading the book and seeing
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: the effects that like systemic racism had on you, Like
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: watching the KKK, you know, March to Your Time?
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: Is that still a trigger?
• 53:24
  Speaker 6: It kind of is?
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: It is?
• 53:27
  Speaker 16: It is?
• 53:28
  Speaker 6: I still like hold some of that stuff in me,
• 53:30
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying that I seen when I
• 53:31
  Speaker 6: was young from best one. That's why I kept my
• 53:34
  Speaker 6: label ten seventeen because I'm like, I don't never want
• 53:36
  Speaker 6: to forget. Even though I was raised in Atlanta, people
• 53:38
  Speaker 6: always associate me with Atlanta. I never want to forget,
• 53:41
  Speaker 6: you know, the life I led there, and I never
• 53:44
  Speaker 6: want to forget like my family then what they going through.
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: You said during the Big Facts interview that the police
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: you feel like they still have it out for you
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: in Atlanta.
• 53:53
  Speaker 6: I feel like they did they did back when I
• 53:55
  Speaker 6: first got I feel like because they used to do
• 53:58
  Speaker 6: stuff like you know what I'm saying, Like I would
• 53:59
  Speaker 6: be when I first had got out of jail. I
• 54:01
  Speaker 6: would go places and the police would just run my name,
• 54:04
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. And then I was on probation,
• 54:06
  Speaker 6: So my probation, but I was like, hey, did you
• 54:07
  Speaker 6: go to such and such because the police ran your
• 54:09
  Speaker 6: name and there, like they were just trying to see
• 54:11
  Speaker 6: if I get They just they just it's just too much.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: So what do you tell artists like your thugs and
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: your little babies that probably feel the same way as you,
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: You say it might be time to get tout Atalanta.
• 54:21
  Speaker 6: I told the baby that I've been told the baby,
• 54:23
  Speaker 6: hey man, he might be too big for the city,
• 54:24
  Speaker 6: might need to move, you know what I'm saying. I
• 54:26
  Speaker 6: never got a chance to tell a thud that, but
• 54:27
  Speaker 6: I definitely told baby that before.
• 54:29
  Speaker 13: Because he used to be there, the baby used to
• 54:30
  Speaker 13: be there, just walking around like regularly, like grocery stores
• 54:34
  Speaker 13: and everything.
• 54:34
  Speaker 6: Because he's so comfortable. I got to comfort that, like
• 54:36
  Speaker 6: even time I went. If I'm in Atlanta and I
• 54:38
  Speaker 6: have an episode, I go straight to my block because
• 54:41
  Speaker 6: I know that block like the back of my hand.
• 54:43
  Speaker 6: I'm always like, I always go there. It's just like
• 54:46
  Speaker 6: the for me, it's like it's two for me for me,
• 54:49
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, It's two for me. Sometimes
• 54:51
  Speaker 6: something too for me for you. You got to get
• 54:53
  Speaker 6: away from that because it's too much comfort them. It
• 54:55
  Speaker 6: ain't no growth in comfort. I need to be well,
• 54:57
  Speaker 6: like I'm held the count of plan you can get
• 54:58
  Speaker 6: held account of if I go to these lane coming,
• 55:01
  Speaker 6: we coming. All I got to do is just stand
• 55:03
  Speaker 6: on the block.
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: I want to ask you, Keisha, how do you how
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: do you define recovery? Because you're seeing him matters worse
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: and now you're seeing him at his best, So how
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: would you define recovery for somebody that is dealing with
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: somebody who's trying to recover from their mental health issues.
• 55:18
  Speaker 17: The first thing you need is medication.
• 55:20
  Speaker 18: You cannot it cannot go on medicated, and the quicker
• 55:24
  Speaker 18: the better, because once they're medicated, they usually get better
• 55:28
  Speaker 18: in like two weeks. It's not it's not overnight. It's
• 55:32
  Speaker 18: literally like fourteen days for them to.
• 55:34
  Speaker 17: Be back to normal.
• 55:35
  Speaker 18: So for him, like let's say he started his medication
• 55:38
  Speaker 18: after an episode, he started his medication today, right three
• 55:41
  Speaker 18: days later, he'd be like, oh, my wife, you're so beautiful.
• 55:44
  Speaker 18: I could tell by his words that he's getting better.
• 55:47
  Speaker 18: And then tomorrow he might say who, and I'm like, oh,
• 55:51
  Speaker 18: he's not better yet.
• 55:52
  Speaker 17: Like I could just tell by his tone.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: Who do you talk to?
• 55:55
  Speaker 7: Keish?
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: Like, who do you have a therapist?
• 55:57
  Speaker 17: No, I'm the therapist. He'll tell you.
• 56:02
  Speaker 18: I'm like a real therapist. I know how to speak
• 56:04
  Speaker 18: to him. You have to speak calm, you cannot scream.
• 56:08
  Speaker 18: Sometimes you have to agree with what he's saying. Like
• 56:11
  Speaker 18: he'll say give me five hundred grand and I'm like, okay,
• 56:13
  Speaker 18: I don't do it.
• 56:14
  Speaker 17: But I say okay, whatever he asks for, I say yes,
• 56:18
  Speaker 17: but I don't do it. But you can't go against them.
• 56:20
  Speaker 18: So he'll text somebody and cuss them out, and I'll
• 56:23
  Speaker 18: go back to his phone and I'll say block him
• 56:25
  Speaker 18: he's having an episode, so I just I'm just a
• 56:27
  Speaker 18: clean up lady.
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: I hate this.
• 56:29
  Speaker 6: I gotta say this. Remember Julia Greenwall used to be
• 56:32
  Speaker 6: the head of Atlanta. I had an episode and said
• 56:35
  Speaker 6: so much bad stud of Judah.
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: I said that.
• 56:37
  Speaker 6: When I came from I said, listen, Julu, Now, if
• 56:41
  Speaker 6: I text you anything crazy, block me for block me,
• 56:44
  Speaker 6: and I don't call me for two days and call
• 56:46
  Speaker 6: my wife because this episode comes because I ain't want
• 56:49
  Speaker 6: to lose my position as label going through episode. And
• 56:53
  Speaker 6: I'm like, if you just see, like, if you see
• 56:54
  Speaker 6: like the text is getting crazy, just block me because
• 56:57
  Speaker 6: I don't want to come tell you. I start saying
• 56:59
  Speaker 6: stuff so bad.
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: It's like you can't come back Fromhimuci, We've seen it before, Gucci. Yeah,
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: but how do you protect your peace though?
• 57:08
  Speaker 14: Yeah?
• 57:09
  Speaker 13: Like you, because there has to be times where you
• 57:10
  Speaker 13: feel like the walls are just caving in because it's
• 57:13
  Speaker 13: so much and it's so personal for you.
• 57:15
  Speaker 18: Honestly, I during the moment, I'm kind of like stressed out.
• 57:20
  Speaker 17: I'm a prayer warrior.
• 57:21
  Speaker 18: I just pray, and once he starts getting better, honestly,
• 57:24
  Speaker 18: I'm okay. And he doesn't stay sick long like I said,
• 57:30
  Speaker 18: it takes fourteen days to get him back, and after
• 57:33
  Speaker 18: like day three, he's already come into his senses. But
• 57:37
  Speaker 18: those deep episodes won't happen ever. Again, we're in twenty five,
• 57:41
  Speaker 18: so the last one was five years ago. He had
• 57:44
  Speaker 18: a mild one coming maybe two years ago, and I
• 57:46
  Speaker 18: caught it. So now I catch them before they come,
• 57:49
  Speaker 18: and like people be saying stuff about him, like, oh,
• 57:52
  Speaker 18: he's sawft, he's thisy that the madman is still there.
• 57:55
  Speaker 18: So I try my best. I don't want them to
• 57:57
  Speaker 18: provoke him because it will come back. Yeah, and he's
• 58:01
  Speaker 18: very dangerous, So y'all listen, please leave him alone because
• 58:05
  Speaker 18: the mad Max.
• 58:06
  Speaker 17: Is still in the head.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: When I when I saw young thugs say that, I
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: was just like, man, you know thug is just young, Yeah,
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: ain't he's just grown grown.
• 58:16
  Speaker 13: I thought it was hearing you talk about why you
• 58:19
  Speaker 13: called young thugs so quick when he dropped the miss
• 58:21
  Speaker 13: my dogs because you understood what that apology like you
• 58:24
  Speaker 13: were there. I thought that was like, really, it was
• 58:26
  Speaker 13: really great to hear. What was y'all conversation?
• 58:28
  Speaker 5: Like I didn't call him, I just forget I just
• 58:31
  Speaker 5: him saying I forgive Oh so y'all didn't actually never talk.
• 58:33
  Speaker 5: Oh wow, so he found out you forgive him on
• 58:35
  Speaker 5: that interview.
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 58:37
  Speaker 8: Has he reached out to you since the interview?
• 58:39
  Speaker 6: To be honest, he was like he hit me, like
• 58:41
  Speaker 6: let's let's let's talk. But I didn't really want to talk.
• 58:44
  Speaker 6: But I do forgive him. I just didn't want to talk.
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand. I'm the saying where I can forgive you,
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: but still there's certain times I just I just don't need.
• 58:54
  Speaker 18: That time.
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: Do you mind being the OGI? And the reason I
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: say that is is you look at it and you
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: see everything that Atlanta is going through. Gucci is that
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: one person that can stop it? Or I think because
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: every artist in Atlanta respects you, do you do you
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: mind that that label as the OGI that can do that?
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: Or you just say, you know what I do?
• 59:13
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, Like I've been in the
• 59:14
  Speaker 6: game twenty years from now, so like I embraced that.
• 59:17
  Speaker 6: You know, I'm not the high artists trying to drop off,
• 59:21
  Speaker 6: you know, the hottest single every year and do all that.
• 59:23
  Speaker 6: You know, I want to be the person that they
• 59:25
  Speaker 6: can come to and talk to.
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: Would you want to do that with everything that's going
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: on in Atlanta.
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: I would. I would.
• 59:31
  Speaker 6: I feel like if they would come to me, but
• 59:33
  Speaker 6: they don't want to come. I feel like people don't
• 59:34
  Speaker 6: come to me for advice because it's like even with
• 59:37
  Speaker 6: my own artists, it's like a lot of them, you know,
• 59:39
  Speaker 6: don't come to me because it's like talking to your dad.
• 59:41
  Speaker 6: I ain't got nothing but positive to say. I'm trying
• 59:43
  Speaker 6: to lead by example and I'm gonna tell you, like
• 59:45
  Speaker 6: you shouldn't do this, you shouldn't. So they don't even
• 59:47
  Speaker 6: want to talk to me.
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: They would, they'd love to talk to old Gucci, want to.
• 59:51
  Speaker 6: I want to talk to Guca. Ain't really gotten that
• 59:53
  Speaker 6: going on. He go to sleep at eight thirty, Like
• 59:56
  Speaker 6: you know, not.
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: What emotional release did? Did writing this book give you
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: that music?
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 6: Because so I'm more proud of this book than I'm
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 6: probably in the album I ever put out, because, like
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 6: you said, it's kind of like talking about stuff that
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 6: I used to be kind of like I had a
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 6: stigma of you know what I'm saying, you got mental health?
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 6: You crazy. It's like I used to be embarrassed about
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 6: some of these situations, and I didn't used to want
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 6: to talk about it. But now I'm confident in talking
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 6: about it because I know that I can help somebody else.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 6: And it's like I don't even feel I don't feel
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 6: no shame no more.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 13: And the conversations that you've been having recently, you know,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 13: have you begin to help people in that space where
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 13: you're like, yo, I.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 6: Did it, like everybody people. I did a book signing
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 6: in Atlanta and a lot of folks are coming up
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 6: to me saying, hey, you know, thank you for this book.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 6: I've been sober eight years, or thank you for this book.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 6: You know I got bipolar. Thank you for this book,
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 6: my friend. You know what I'm saying, be going through
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 6: episodes like I was getting a lot of it, and
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 6: it felt good to feel that love. You know what
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 6: I'm saying, It really did.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: Are you still surprised about the love? I heard you
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: say something. You were in Miami do the book Sartning
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: and you were surprised about that. How many people came
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: up to me and asked for an autograph for your book.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: But then I'm thinking about it, I'm like, you just
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: did South Carolina Cone coming that with so loud.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 6: You just did this show that was so loud, so
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 6: like it's different when they come up like with that book.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 6: I don't know why, but it's like the book signing
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 6: saying when they saying about your book, you know, I've
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 6: been rocking with you, said I was in junior high.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 6: You know, you got me through college. Like it just
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 6: the energy, it was like it made me feel good.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 6: I ain't felt that in a long time, you know,
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 6: like touching the people, shaking their hand, taking the selfie
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 6: with them. It's like when you do that at about
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 6: two three hundred people and they're telling you that you
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 6: can't do nothing but feel good.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm said. You're like a mythical figure into
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 3: a whole generation. You got sexy Red calling yourself the
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: female Gucci man. South Carolina State, them kids asked for you. Yeah,
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 3: like I've seen the list. I'm like, I don't even

  Speaker 3: I don't know who these people are, but they're like, oh,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 3: Gucci man, I know Gucci, Like they wanted you at
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 3: South Carolina.

  Speaker 2: How did that make you feel on the whole generation?
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: And how that feel good?
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 6: I feel good when I go through this. I've been
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 6: doing a lot of college. I do Norfolk State on Tuesday,
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 6: but every time I go to the college in there,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 6: like the kids know all the words. You know what
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. The nineteen years old like, bro, you still
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 6: touching people nineteen years old? They know this song. They
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 6: singing songs that came out of two thousand and five,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 6: two thousand and sixs how old were out there? So
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 6: that feel good?
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: I make you feel keys you when you see Sexy
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 3: Red callsself the female Gucci, I love it.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 18: I love when younger artists pay homage to him, like
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 18: I be in the background, like when people don't pay
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 18: homage to him or true respect, I be mad.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 17: He don't get mad or whatever.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 18: But I watch everything online and I analyze it, and
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 18: if anybody go against him, I'm going against them too.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 13: I was going to ask does the book because you said,
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 13: you know, seeing people come up to you with the book,
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 13: it's like a great feeling for you.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 8: Does the book make you feel like a superhero versus
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 8: like music didn't?
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 13: Because we talked about like our og like rappers being
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 13: like superhero sis, which a lot of people I feel
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 13: like they look at you that way.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 6: I'm super proud of being the author. You know what
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 6: I'm saying. I read a lot of books.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: I read.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 6: People just don't know it about me, But I read
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 6: a ton of books. You know what I'm saying. I
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 6: probably read two three books a month.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Big Malcolm glad Wolf, a huge.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 6: Big mocol Glad Weell fan. You know what I'm saying.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 6: He just did a book frange at the type of
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 6: point that I read that I love. You know, but
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 6: I'm proud of being an author because I love books
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 6: and so it's like it's a different thing to being
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 6: a rapper. You know what I'm saying. I want to
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 6: make some more books. I like being a prolific author.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 6: I'm trying to have more books than Charlemagne. Yeah, I
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 6: got three yet I want to see write a book.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 3: I really do, because I'm telling you, people who have
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: to deal with those of us with mental health issues
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: don't tell their stories enough.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 18: Yeah, I think it's harder being me than him going
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 18: through an episode because it's scary, like like we had
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 18: a condo when we were on like the Penthouse, and
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 18: I'm like, is he gonna jump?
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 17: Is the voice gonna tell him to jump?
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 18: Like that's the scary part, not me being scared of
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 18: him hurting me so like during episodes, I make sure
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 18: no one is around him with guns, knives, high buildings.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 18: But he wouldn't leave that. That's where I had to
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 18: kidnap him from. He would not leave there. He wouldn't
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 18: come to the house. And I'm like, I had to
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 18: get like a babysitter for him because he hated me
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 18: different episodes. He hate different people that if you have
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 18: an episode where he hates me, that's a problem.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 17: He hated me. He wouldn't come home.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 18: He got the damn balcony, and I'm like, is the
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 18: voice gonna tell him? I can't sleep at night?
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 17: I have to what is he doing?
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 18: Now?
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 17: Did he eat today?
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 18: Like I have to play games with his friends from
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 18: Atlanta who he want to be with. And and then
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 18: I'm like, don't give him any wee throw it in
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 18: the garbage.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 17: They called me back. Oh he needs beat. I gave
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 17: him weet today. I said, no, you didn't, you know,
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 17: like stuff like that. It's hard.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 18: It's so so, so so stressful, like you want to cry.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 18: And I cannot read that book. It's too sad, it's
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 18: too much for me. It's too I don't read it.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 17: I read probably like three pages and I had to quit.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: What about you to relive all of it all night.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: A minute.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 6: My autobigraphy almost made me cry, and this book almost
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 6: made me cry, almost made him cry.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 18: I book was putting himrough an episode that I called.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 17: It at day one.
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: So revisiting the trauma, yes, it puts him back.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 6: Bro, I can't lie, especially the best Alabama part, Like damn,
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 6: that take me back down?
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 6: It's like then I started thinking about you know, when
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 6: I was young, my granddad and my mom, like, damn,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 6: we was poor. And I'm like, I don't I don't
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 6: think about that no more. You know what I'm saying?
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 6: That was like I know it was poor, but like
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 6: that not well when you go back to think about it, Damn, man,
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 6: the racist ad time poor as hell, you know, staying
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 6: with my granddady, me and my mom, my brother's like
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 6: we ain't have we have?
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: So how do you protect yourself while revisiting that trumpa
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 3: and on a press run and how do you how
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: do you protect well?
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 17: The press run doesn't bother him.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 18: It's just like when he was writing the book, because
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 18: he has to keep saying these things over and over
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 18: and over.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 17: And actually this was my idea.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 18: I was like, you need to do a movie called
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 18: episode and let people know what's going on. I said,
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 18: I can tell you everything you've done through your episodes
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 18: because he doesn't remember.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 17: And I was telling him how to make the movie.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 18: And that's how that's how we started the book, because
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 18: she told me to make a movie as soon as
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 18: you have the episode.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 17: I was like, this, people need to see that.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: We all married the beautiful black woman. But I want Gucci.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: You tell me how important is it to have a
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: good woman.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 6: Man, It's the most important thing you can have, the
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 6: best decision you can make. My best decision ever was
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 6: to marry her and be with her.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 18: Right.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 6: I got somebody to you know, whole mail accountable, and
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 6: I got somebody you know, watch TV with. Sometimes that's
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 6: all you want to do, cheer bro. I'm kind of like,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 6: I don't really need a lot.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 18: Like we're just like best friends and we just home
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 18: just chilling and we everything we do we have it
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 18: in common, like the same food, the same shows.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 8: We both.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 14: Like to just go to.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 3: If you could redefine what it means to be real
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 3: in hip hop culture, what new code would you give
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 3: that this new generation?
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 6: Man, I let them know, like they talking about their hood,
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 6: but the best hood is fatherhood. That's that's what I'm
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 6: most proud of. You know what I'm saying. I love
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 6: I love being called dad. You know, I love being
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 6: a present dad. That's like I didn't even know that
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 6: it was. There's so much joy and raising kids that
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 6: it is. But you know what I'm saying, like raising
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 6: the family has changed me. It has changed for the better.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: I always want to say the biggest thing that made
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: me so happy. When you see Gucci talking about his kids,
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you see the smile on his
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: start smile, start grinning, he like, I can't wait to
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: get back and get to my.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 17: Like that is the biggest thing him right now, He'll.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like a.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: Generational curse breaker?
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 6: Yes, yes, I know. My little boy, he gonna inherit
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 6: all this, he got so much, he so turned up
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 6: your trust.

  Speaker 1: Fun baby, ain't nothing wrong with it.

• 1:08:05
  Speaker 6: It's important my album today too, shall.

• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: That's what it's the Breakfast Club.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 2: Good Damn, it's I mean, trying to be donkey today.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 7: No more.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 2: not making these people do these.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: Days called Donkey of to Day and it really caught
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: me off guard.
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: Damn Charlamagne, who.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: Got the donkey out of Day today? Wow?
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: Just Hillary, it's Donkey today.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 3: From Monday, October twentieth goes to a twenty one year
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 3: old Ohio man named Jonathan Morris. Jonathan is locked up
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 3: right now because he decided to seek vengeance after being fired.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: Okay, how many.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 3: People out there have been fired and wanted to seek
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 3: revenge for said firing. Well, Jonathan Morris lived out your
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 3: wildness dreams and now his dumb ass is in jail
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 3: for it. Let's go to Fox nineteen now for the
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 3: report police.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 15: Breaking this morning. At the Alert desk, A man is
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 15: dead after a shooting outside this Taco Bell in Queensgate.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 15: This is video from that scene at the restaurant on
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 15: Guest Street. Cincinnati Police say they first got that call
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 15: around midnight saying someone shot an employee in the parking
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 15: lot of that Taco Bell. When officers arrived, they declared
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 15: the victim dead at the scene. We're told police did
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 15: not make any arrests or find a weapon right now,
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 15: they are currently investigating and finding surveillance video from the
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 15: restaurant at this hour.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 3: Jonathan, Johnny, John John, I shouldn't have to tell you
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 3: that this wasn't the way to handle any of this.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: Okay. Look, we've all been fired in life.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 3: I've been fired seven times total, four times from radio stations.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 3: The others were a clothing store that used to exist
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: in them all called Demo. I was fired from a
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: warehouse called Industrial Acoustic Company, and I was fired by
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 3: my sister from guess where Taco Bell? Yes, my sister
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 3: was the manager, and she fired me rightfully.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: So, okay, I was late. That's not funny. It is.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 2: It is funny, but it is that, you know what
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: I'm saying. I was fired rightfully, so I was late,
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: not doing what I was supposed to be doing. It happens.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: But now once did I think about reacting to any
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 3: of those firings the way Jonathan Morris did. Okay, I
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 3: just don't understand the rapid escalation. You fired one day
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: then allegedly commit murder the next. There had to be
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: some type of serious mental breakdown. He had to have
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 3: a problem with his manager prior. Because ain't no way, Jonathan,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 3: You're twenty one years old. I can guarantee you that
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: Taco Bell was not going to be where you peaked
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 3: in life.
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, it just wasn't. You went to Taco Bell a
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 2: day after being fired from there to kill the manager.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 3: I looked it up, man, Okay, Taco Bell in Ohio
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: pay than the average of about thirteen dollars and thirty
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: three cents per hour. So you were about to spend
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 3: the rest of your life in a maximum security prison
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 3: for minimum wage.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: And the news report said the manager was just trying
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 2: to help.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 6: That's what I read.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 3: Okay, I bet you the manager and rest in peace
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 3: to the manager. Ryan Johnson sending his family healing energy.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: Ryan Johnson was just trying to help. He probably engaged
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 3: Jonathan in conversation. He probably was making an effort to
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: resolve something, probably trying to tell him like, bruh, this
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 3: ain't that serious. Okay, you got fired from here, you
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: got a whole life to live. But now he's dead
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 3: because this young man simply couldn't handle his emotions. Another
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 3: permanent decision made from temporary feelings. Listen, I promise you,
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: youngest man. I know things be feeling like the end
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 3: of the world when bad things happen. But if it's
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 3: one thing that I have learned in my forties even
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: years on this planet, is that trouble don't last always. Okay,
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 3: this two shall pass, and my brother, fast food is
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 3: not a fortune five hundred company fortune five hundred companies
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 3: ain't worth you killing nobody over but definitely fast food,
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 3: ain't okay? I promise you that you could have gotten
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 3: another fast food job if you wanted one.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: You may have felt humiliated or wronged in the moment.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 3: You might have felt like it was unfair. You may
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 3: have felt powerless, but McDonald's was right up the street. Okay,
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 3: So is a Chick for l A? Well, you're definitely
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: not nice enough to work and no Chick fil A,
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 3: But there's a coust Junius. I don't know if Crystal
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: is in Ohio, but my point is there was other
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 3: fast food jobs to be got. Okay, you can get
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 3: another fast food job where Ryan Johnson sadly can't get
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: another life, not here in this dimension anyway, and you,
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 3: Jonathan can't get back what you are about to lose,
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 3: which is a life of freedom. Workplace conduct plus emotional
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 3: discress plus access to firearms can lead to irreversible tragedies
• 1:13:00

  Speaker 1: But but let me ask you a question. Yes, that's

  Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, I've worked with people who were extremely late
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 3: all the time. All right, okay, my track record is
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 3: very very good.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, all right, well now when we
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: come back, you got a chance to chop it up
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: with former president former Vice president Kamala Harris.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, you know, Kamala Harris has an amazing book out
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 3: called one hundred and seven Days. If Democrats get out
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 3: their feelings, I think it can you know, help them
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 3: to have some courage to tell the truth about their
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 3: own party. All right, and I think that can help them,
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 3: you know, moving into the future. But we were in Birmingham,
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 3: Alabama on Friday, and we had a couple of conversations.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 3: We had a five o'clock conversation and an eight o'clock conversation.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 3: Both of them were different. So we're gonna get pieces
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 3: of both of them all for you this morning. All right,
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 3: we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 2: Good Morning, The Breakfast Club Morning.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ NV, Jess Hilarius, Charlamagne, the God. We
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: Over the weekend, Charlamagne chapped it up with The Birthday Woman. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 3: So we was in Birmingham, Alabama on Friday. You know,
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 3: her book is out one hundred and seven days. It's
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 3: been number one on the New York Times Bestsellers list
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: for weeks and so, yeah, we had a couple of conversations.
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 3: You know, we had a five o'clock conversation in an
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 3: eight o'clock conversation.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 2: So I don't know which one we're getting on for
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 2: you this morning. It might be a combination of both.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: It is, it's the breakfast Club, good morning.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 14: Well, you know, I.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: Loved one hundred and seven days, And the reason.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 3: I loved one hundred and seven days is because I
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: just love honesty, you know, And it felt like, you know,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 3: you you got a lot off of your chest, a
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 3: lot of things that you've been wanting to say. But
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: I guess I couldn't say you decided to say in
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 3: the book, do you do you?
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 2: We cannot hear you. You don't know what you say.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 3: Do you feel like the Democratic Party truly supported your
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 3: leadership or they just relieved you could study the ship
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 3: after Biden stepped aside.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 14: That's a big thing to say the Democratic Party there
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 14: was what a Biden administration?
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: Well, I write about it.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 14: I write about how I felt about people in the answer.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 20: But here's the thing.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 14: If we think about where we are now and moving forward,
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 14: we've got to have the fight in us and we
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 14: have to understand that this is not a time for
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 14: sitting around complaining about, Oh they're cheating, they're just not fair,
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 14: they're not playing by the rules.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 20: We need to fight fire with fire.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: There we go.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 6: We need to fight fire with fire.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 14: So when I look at where the Democratic Party is today,
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 14: that's what I applaud those who are understanding that this
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 14: is not a time to try and be the ones
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 14: who are holding up the standard when they are stealing
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 14: our We will not compromise our values or principles. These
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 14: things can coexist where we have our principles and our values,
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 14: but we know how to roll up our sleeves and
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 14: throw a punch and stead.
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 20: Just taking a punch her.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: Now, another thing I want to talk about, Like we've
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 3: all seen the clips of people interrupting you at these
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 3: book events, right, please, nobody do that tonight, all right?
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: And it always makes me wonder if they've.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: Read the book, like the people who are in supportive
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: Paloss and have they actually read the book because in
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 3: the book you call Biden's comments on Gaza inadequate and forced.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 2: What word would you use to describe the administration's role
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: in that moment?
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 14: I firmly believe we could have done more. We had
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 14: a certain level of leverage that we did not exercise.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 14: Whether it was about what we did in terms of support,
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 14: applying support at what level?
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 8: It about?
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 14: What about speaking publicly about what we knew to be wrong.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 14: I think we could have done more and and should have.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: Did Did you ever feel complicit in decisions that's right?
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 3: Did did you ever feel complicit in decisions that went
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 3: against your conscience?
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 14: I the people in the administration were very clear about
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 14: how it felt.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you wrote, you wrote that Net and Yahoo wanted
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 3: Trump in de seat across from him, not you, not Joe.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 3: So what do you think that says about how foreign
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 3: leaders really view, you know, the current administration and the
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 3: Biden administration.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 14: I think ye And I again, for the sake of repetition,
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 14: I I predicted it, and it's exactly what we're saying.
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 14: I I said on the debate stage, they one are
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 14: laughing at us. If you look at it in the
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 14: context of again, a disgraceful speech that the president gave
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 14: before the United Nations, he did it when he was
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 14: president the first time, and again was disgraceful. You look
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 14: at it in terms of the whole flattery or favor
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 14: he accepted a plane the President of the United States
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 14: from a foreign government.
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 20: Remember we all learned.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 14: Back in the day, what is a trojan horse. Some
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 14: people might call it a jet plane. I'd call it
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 14: a trojan horse. And let me tell you something. I
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 14: spent four years flying around the world on Air Force
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 14: two and taking very important, highly classified meetings with the
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 14: Secretary of Defense, Secretary of.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 20: State, generals, and others in an environment.
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 14: On that plane that was highly protected for those classified conversations.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 14: Because you can only imagine how much foreign governments want
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 14: to have access to our classified information which we possess
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 14: in the best interest of.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 20: Our national security.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 14: And this man wants a big plane so bad because
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 14: you know, his plane is not that big, that Trump plane,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 14: and he wants it so he can have it when
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 14: he's out of office. They talk about giving it to
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 14: the library. You know who's going to be flying around
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 14: on that plane. And this is on top of remember
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 14: early on they were.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 20: Using Signal Charlemagne to plan out war plans.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 14: We would get ourselves out of in the middle of
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 14: the night, all of us wherever we were to go
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 14: to what it was called what is called a skiff,
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 14: which is a secure facility, or go to the situation
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 14: room to have those conversations.
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 20: These people are so lazy.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 14: That they're sending back texting each other about war plans,
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 14: and then so dumb to not know.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 20: A reporter as in the tax chain.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 14: With our national security interests at stake, And if it
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 14: weren't so incredibly harmful.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 20: It would be the thing of a great comedy sketch.
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, I will be in you.
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 20: But it's ext And this.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 21: Is the thing about having people who don't fully appreciate
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 21: the strength and power and therefore solemn responsibility that comes
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 21: with these positions, that it.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 8: Is not about them, It is about you, It is
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 8: about us.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 20: It is about we the people.
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 7: And that is what is so tragic.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 14: Put aside personalities, put aside egos or lack thereof, the
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 14: matters that we are discussing are such a grave and
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 14: important nature that to have people who do not understand
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 14: the that they possess the power in the public trust
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 14: and to instead be convinced of their personal entitlement, it's
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 14: so incredibly dangerous to who we are as a country.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 20: Well, let's save each other.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 14: That we're here to save each other.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: Are you going to take time to enjoy yourself on
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 2: your upcoming birthday.
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know right about.
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 20: If my birthday's coming up.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the dove knows that it's time, right. But I
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 2: know in the book you kind of God last year.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 14: Yeah, so I tell a story about I love my
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 14: husband so much. I loved my husband so much. I
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 14: loved my Dougie so much. But yeah, that was not
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 14: a good birthday.
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 2: You got triggered just now just thinking about it.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 14: Okay, what happened was so?
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 8: What happened was this?
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 20: So my birthday is October twenty.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 14: So we were, as you can imagine, knee need deep
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 14: in the campaign, and Doug and I, Doug my husband
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 14: and I, we had basically, you know, like so many
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 14: of our families, we had you know, split up to
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 14: everybody being somewhere that we needed to be, and our
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 14: teams had conspired so lovingly that he and I would
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 14: end up in the same place the night of my birthday.
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 20: You're gonna ask me, did Doug plan a dinner?
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 1: No?
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: I read the book.
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 20: I know he didn't.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 14: So then it came time for the birthday gift. I
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 14: opened the gift. The gift was a necklace that it
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 14: was engraved. It was not October twentieth, It was the
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 14: date of our anniversary, because Doug clearly thought he was
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 14: going to get a twofer with that one gift.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 2: Need you to do better this year, Doug?
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 14: Okay, fourth, they hid it and he was so and
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 14: it was it was leading up to the World Series,
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 14: and so we had had we had dinner and which
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 14: I selected, and and we had a little cupcake and
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 14: I blew out the candle and I was done. And
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 14: so I went to go take a bath because it
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 14: actually during the campaign, and I highly suggest it for
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 14: anybody who has a bathtub that it is a really
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 14: wonderful way to distressed at the.
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 8: End of the day, with salt, Yes, with ebs, salt
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 8: with eb some salt. Right, So I went to go
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 8: take a bath.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 14: Doug was watching the baseball game, and then I realized
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 14: in this hotel and they had it was a nice
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 14: little suite they got us for that night, and the
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 14: towels were on the other side of the bathroom. So
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 14: of course I'm vice president running for president of the
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 14: United States. So I had my phone next to the bathtub,
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 14: and but first I just called out to.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 20: My husband dougie.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 7: Nothing.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 14: Then I went to Doug calling him out, Doug nothing,
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 14: and then it's real serious when I go Douglas.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 20: So I picked up the phone to call him. He
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 20: didn't answer, So then.
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 14: I FaceTime audio him. Here's how he answered, what's up?
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 8: And that was it.
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 17: And so we got into it a little bit.
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 2: Rightfully so.
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 14: And but here's the thing about my husband and about
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 14: that moment. We all, in our relationships, in whatever form
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 14: you have, go through stressful moments and go through you
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 14: know what life brings. There are joy and there is
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 14: also stress. And my husband said to me at that moment,
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 14: he looked at me and he.
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 20: Just poured cold water on the.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 14: Heat of that moment. And he looked at me and
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 14: he said, we cannot turn on each other.
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 20: And it was so poignant.
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 14: And you know, I tell a few stories like that
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 14: about just what this was because Charlemagne. In many ways,
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 14: I just I wanted to write this book to also
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 14: just lift the hood on what happens behind the scenes
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 14: in every way. I think there's so much about I mean,
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 14: obviously the office of president is and it affects the
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 14: entire globe, but there's so much about the process that's
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 14: very opaque that people unless you've been personally involved at
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 14: a very close level, you don't really have a sense
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 14: of and I wanted to help people have a sense
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 14: of it in a way that I hope helps people
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 14: see where they could fit in or be involved or
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 14: a part of it, and feel a sense of understanding
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 14: what it all involves, so that we can all participate
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 14: in an active way.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 3: You know, in the book you write about democracy being fragile,
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 3: and we see that happening right now.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 2: Do you still believe the system can fix yourself from
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 2: the inside?
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 14: No, not necessarily.
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 20: Okay, it pains me to say that.
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 14: When I decided to become a prosecutor, I had to
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 14: defend that decision with my family. They were not down
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 14: with that decision, so many of them. And I said, look,
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 14: why is it that we are always thinking that for
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 14: systems that need change or reform, that we have to
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 14: be on the outside on ben de knee or trying
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 14: to break down the door to get that improvement done.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 14: I said, shouldn't we also think about being on the
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 14: inside of the system as a way to have an impact.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 14: And I have believed that, and I've seen the benefit
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 14: of that my entire career.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 20: But to be very candid. I perhaps naively thought.
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 14: The system would be stronger in this moment.
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 8: Then it's been.
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 14: And I think that without any question, the destruction caused
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 14: by this administration in this moment and the debris that
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 14: will be left is going to require some serious work,
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 14: and it will need to be without nostalgia about how
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 14: things were, knowing that there was a lot that was
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 14: not working so well, and there was a lot that
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 14: was working well, to be sure, and the people inside,
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 14: these career people who have been there doing incredible God's
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 14: work must be applauded always. But the structure and the
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 14: way we have designed some of these systems has turned
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 14: out to be quite flawed. So the change that we
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 14: want and the improvement that we're going to need, some
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 14: of it will be from inside the system, but I
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 14: think a lot of it is going to be because
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 14: of the pressure that the people put to say, this
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 14: is how.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 20: I want my government to work for me.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 14: I think that's and I think that perhaps in this
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 14: moment of crisis, it is going to one of the
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 14: maybe opportunities in this moment of severe crisis is that
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 14: when we have to then start figuring out how we're
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 14: going to deal with the debris and the cleanup that
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 14: it gives us an opportunity to reimagine some of these
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 14: systems to make them more effective and responsive to the
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 14: needs of the people.
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 3: Well, if one hundred and seven days was your closure
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 3: for one chapter, what's the new one you're ready to open?
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 2: Are you going to be part of that cleanup? Are
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 2: you going to be out there intershot you?
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 14: You know it is my nature to serve. I'm not
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 14: going to stop serving, but right now my focus is
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 14: on winning, and so I'm going to be doing work
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 14: on behalf of folks in the mid terms. There are
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 14: two important governor's races happening in the country right now,
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 14: which we should focus on in New Jersey and Virginia.
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 20: There's the local work.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 14: That's happening, and that's going to be my focus. We
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 14: have to win on everything, and it's about not only elections,
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 14: but around this this war on disinformation and also just
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 14: lifting up the ability of us as Americans to trust
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 14: each other. There's a lot of work to be done,
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 14: and I'm in it and I'm here for the fight.
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 1: That was Charlemagne's conversation with former Vice President Kamala Harris. Now,
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 1: when we come back. We got the latest with Lawrence.
• 1:31:24

• 1:32:01
  Speaker 2: with Lauren la Rosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you

  Speaker 2: have details. Sometimes you have a little bit every time.
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 2: The leader on the breakfast Club.
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 8: All right, So stephen A.
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 13: Smith is talking more about Lebron James. He sat down
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 13: with the guys over at the Pivot and he talked
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 13: about Lebron James and he says, Lebron James doesn't go
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 13: at white people the same way he does black analysts.
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 8: That's sick a listing.
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 2: You ever see Lebron got the white boy? It's called
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 2: what it come at me? Close as you have a kid.
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: That first for yourself, plead again.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 22: I'm sorry you ever see Lebron got the white boy
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 22: called what you see you, Shawna, come at me close
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 22: as you have A came to see him do something
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 22: like that when he called out Brian Wenthors.
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: What you're calling not Brian Windhors, for the man covered
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 1: you since junior.
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 22: High school and has praised you repeatedly, and you used
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 22: the Pat McAfee situation to go at him. And that's
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 22: the only time you ever see Lebron James, you know,
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 22: really go at somebody white.
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 2: I'm calling what it is. When I did my monologue.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 22: For seventeen to have eighteen minutes the day after he
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 22: decided to go on Pat McAfee's show. Immediately after, I
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 22: was informed that we won't be hearing more from him
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 22: about me. That's what I thought, because I got receipts.
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 22: I pride myself on being a fair minded individual, being professional,
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 22: but I'm also a proud black man, and I know
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 22: not only what I've done, what I've tried to do
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 22: for black men in our industry. I'm gonna have to
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 22: call you out sometimes, but you know why I'm calling
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 22: you out because there's a whole bunch of other black
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 22: people I got to look out for, and they can't
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 22: make the same everage you just made because if they
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 22: did it, were ruin their life. And I need to
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 22: use you as that example because I got a bigger vision.
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's an interesting take.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 3: But what I would say, you know, bigger than going
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 3: at I guess white sports pundits. Like we've seen Lebron
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 3: James be a voice for social justice, you know, in
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 3: a in a racially divided country, like we've seen him
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 3: do that a lot. We've seen him position himself, you know,
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 3: throughout his throughout his.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 2: Career as a leader on those type of issues.
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 3: And you know, somebody of his statue don't have to
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 3: speak out against a lot of the things that Lebron
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 3: has spoken out against. So I mean, you know, saying
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 3: he went up, he never went at a white sports pundit.
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know if that's even true or not. But
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 3: I've seen him stand up against white supremacy.
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I think it's I think it's a different line. Yeah,
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: we see Lebron stand up for for a lot of
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: social rights, but a lot of Yeah, a lot of
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 1: people do feel like when it comes to not said ish.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 6: You said, he said, I thought you said it to.
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 2: You said it.
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 3: I need you to share, but no, I mean no,
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 3: Lebron has used his platform to speak on political and socialists.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 3: He's he's he's done things like, you know, mobilized black voters.
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 3: He's fought against voters and fresh and in response, you know,
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 3: to the death of George Floyd, like I've seen Lebron
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 3: James stand up speak on issues, especially in re guards
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 3: to race that he doesn't have to.
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 2: At his level. Yes, I like that more than going
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 2: at you know, a white sports But I guess he's.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: Saying, if you're gonna go at me, go at everybody
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 1: the same. I guess that's that Stephen Smiths.
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 2: But I'm just saying both they're not created equally. I
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 2: don't I don't know if.
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 3: He's ever got Brian Windhoord is the example that I
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 3: would use, because that's the latest one that's in my mind.
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 3: I don't know who historically. I'm sure he's probably clapped
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 3: that Skip baalist.
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I really do not know.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 3: But I'm just saying standing up for social justice issues
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 3: and standing up for your race and regards and stuff
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 3: like that is bigger than me, and it's a lot
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 3: more to lose doing that than it is going at
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 3: a sports aintle.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. So I don't know what Stephen
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 2: was trying to get at with that.
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 13: Gotcha, that was the shut up in dribble. I mean
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 13: he didn't like go at her, but the whole number
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 13: and the whole shut up and dribble thing too. Like
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 13: I'm sure he has some things to say about.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 2: That, but that's why the lady.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 3: The lady told him that because of the stands he
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 3: takes for his on race issues and social justice issues.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: Because George Floyd that was I.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 2: Don't remember what that was for. I just remember that's
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 2: why they told him to shut up and dribble.
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 13: That's why, well else Elsewhearing the interview, Stephen A does
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 13: say that to MV to your point that you know
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 13: he there was a lot of times where he didn't
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 13: speak on Bronnie and Lebron and he actually like clapped
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 13: for them because he felt like lebron was getting what
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 13: he deserved because he does so much for the league.
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 13: But I think he feels like you took your time
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 13: to come for me and everybody else. But I mean
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 13: the Steven A. Smith too, So if you're gonna come
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 13: for somebody, you want to go where the voice is
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 13: like if everybody listens to stephen A.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 8: So I kind of understand that as well.
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 13: But he also talked about the Serena Williams Alexis Orhani
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 13: moment as well. He says, if he was in the studio,
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 13: it would have went down different. Let's take a listen
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 13: to that.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 22: Let's go to that Alexis Ohany and Serena Williams husband.
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 2: It would have been a entirely different situation if I
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 2: were in the studio.
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 22: Don't think for one second and I'm gonna let some
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 22: petty spat get in the way of my money. All
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 22: I was saying was, as men, if I'm married and
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 22: my wife got the energy and the fervor to show
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 22: up on Super Bowl Sunday and go out on stage,
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 22: specifically to dance off of a song that's disrespecting her ax,
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 22: my question would be, what's that energy about. That's all
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 22: I was saying. I was speaking generically. He clearly took
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 22: it differently, and to his face. I would have said
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 22: to him what I just said to y'all, and I
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 22: would say, but that you took it differently. I owned that,
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 22: and I apologize you because I meant no disrespect, but
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 22: I wasn't gonna make a big deal of it. But
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 22: if I was face to face and he had come
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 22: at me that way, I would have simply said, sir,
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 22: I didn't mean it that way, but do you really
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 22: want me to take it there?
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 3: You got to go back, Alexis, Alexis, you got to
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 3: go back because I want to see.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 6: Let this die.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 2: You know, we don't want to see, don't want to see.
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 1: You're not doing it well.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 3: I want to say he.
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 1: Didn't even have the full energy through YouTube. Alexis what's
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 1: his name? Alex was name?
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 2: Not going to have the same energy balls and Steve
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 2: Steven the one that got.
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 5: The fact that whether alex Is gonna have an energy
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 5: and oh my bad, Alexis exactly it's not even the
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 5: fact whether he's gonna have the energy or not. It's
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 5: the fact that will he have the same energy to y'all.
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 5: It's his energy going to be good enough for y'all,
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 5: because it wasn't good enough for y'all when he came
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 5: up there and said something that's not true.
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 3: Les would have said exactly what he said to Steven
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 3: a to face the face, giving.
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 2: That's not what he said is this that he didn't
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 2: say it to his face. I thought I made that
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 2: perfectly clear.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 1: I thought he should have been more directed. I didn't
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 1: like talking about, you know, relationship and marricasarned to make
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: billion dollar companies.
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 2: I was kind of confused.
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 3: Now that was a flexcasion, so me for me, it's
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 3: just about to face to face in But now the
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 3: balls in Stephen's court, okay, because I need to see
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 3: what they react faith, but I don't.
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 2: I want to say one last thing.
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 3: The reason I always give Lebron James props for what
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 3: he does in social justice and standing up for racial
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 3: issues is because of the fact that people like Jordan,
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 3: Michael Jordan were always criticized for not doing that, you know,
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 3: because he didn't want to lose endorsements, so I didn't
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 3: want to lose fans. Lebron don't eem to care about that.
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 3: He never seem to care about that. So I respect
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 3: that more than just you know, going at a white
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 3: sports anker. The latest with Lauren, yeah you had another one.
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 8: Yeah, Jack and forth. She even got her exes mad.
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 2: She said which one? Which one?
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 3: This is?
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 8: This is the one that was with her right.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 13: Before she did Selena, and this is the one that
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 13: used to claim that because Diddy came around their relationship,
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 13: their marriage ended.
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 2: I would like the record to show that I never
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 2: heard of this man.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, noah, guys, when.
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 2: I think of j Ox's he's never I don't even
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 2: know who this is.
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 1: Was only married for eleven She was married for a
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 1: hot time. He had a lot to say. It was
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: eleven years.
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 2: Oh so he like Chris Humphreys, and Chris Humphreys was
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 2: way more popping than them.
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. All right, now when we come back,
• 1:40:19

• 1:40:34
  Speaker 2: not even joking when I say this.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 3: His new book, Episodes Diary of Recovering mad Man is
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 3: a very very important book because there's not too many people,
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 3: especially artists, who are willing to admit that they were
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 3: clinically diagnosed with bipolaris schizophrenia. They had super drug addiction,
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 3: he was on lean, he was on pills purpose at
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 3: all of that stuff like that, and a lot of
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 3: that irrational behavior we saw from them, the Twitter rans
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 3: going at people. It was because of that man. You
• 1:41:03
  Speaker 3: know how how great the world would be if so
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 3: many other people would admit.
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 8: That for sure, And the fact that he had a
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 8: wife there to help him every step of the way.
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 1: She never left them alone.
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 3: You know what, Luther, He's just really the hero and
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 3: all of this because Gucci don't really have anybody else
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 3: that closes. If you get the book, he'll explain to
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 3: you why he don't really have a relationship with his mom.
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 3: God bless it because his mom is no longer here.
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 3: But I'm telling you it's a really really good read.
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she's the glue that held it all together.
• 1:41:29
