Speaker 1: This is Mandy B. Welcome to Selective Ignorance, a production
0:03
Speaker 1: of the Black Effect Podcast Network and iHeartRadio.
0:05
Speaker 2: Tom, why are you here this morning? Well, in the
0:09
Speaker 2: late 70s, I was a little too.
0:10
Speaker 3: Young to get involved and go to South America for
0:14
Speaker 3: the Jonestown Massacre, but this is as close as I'll
0:16
Speaker 3: ever get.
0:17
Speaker 4: So that's why I'm here.
0:18
Speaker 1: Wait, the Jonestown Massacre? That's right.
0:20
Speaker 5: See?
0:20
Speaker 6: There's nothing like being a cult right up front, man.
0:23
Speaker 7: All right.
0:23
Speaker 5: Maybe this is not a Trump supporter right now.
0:26
Speaker 7: It's okay.
0:27
Speaker 2: We'll find over it. I appreciate that.
0:30
Speaker 1: Hey, yo! Welcome to another episode of Selective Ignorance with me,
0:35
Speaker 1: your host, Mandi B. And we are getting into all
0:39
Speaker 1: of the ignorant things. As you know, today is voting day.
0:43
Speaker 1: So if you have not went out and placed your vote,
0:46
Speaker 1: make sure you get to the polls.
0:48
Speaker 2: Voted!
0:50
Speaker 1: If it's not too late, if you are listening to
0:52
Speaker 1: this right now, the day that we dropped, I believe
0:56
Speaker 1: polls close across the country at around 7 p.m. So
1:00
Speaker 1: you do have time. And on this week's episode, up
1:04
Speaker 1: first in ignorant shit, we are talking Trump voters.
1:09
Speaker 6: Oh, bro.
1:10
Speaker 1: That's right. We have had content to feed our souls
1:16
Speaker 1: of so many of the people going out to these
1:17
Speaker 1: polls who are leading with ignorance.
1:20
Speaker 2: That's right.
1:21
Speaker 1: Their ignorance around voting, their ignorance around the importance of
1:25
Speaker 1: voting and voting. their ignorance around who the hell they
1:29
Speaker 1: are voting for and why. So we're getting into that.
1:33
Speaker 1: And then up first in This Is America, just a
1:36
Speaker 1: year after moving from Ghana to join his father in
1:39
Speaker 1: New York, a young boy was tragically shot and killed
1:44
Speaker 1: on his way to school in the Bronx. His father
1:47
Speaker 1: alleges he had been bullied at the school and this
1:50
Speaker 1: now raises concerns about student safety. We're also going to
1:53
Speaker 1: tap into Cardi B who shared her thoughts on the
1:56
Speaker 1: tragedy along with bullying and being raised in the hood. Oh,
2:03
Speaker 1: we have thoughts on this. Then in Florida news, because
2:07
Speaker 1: God damn it, Florida stays embarrassing us. Human trafficking and
2:10
Speaker 1: pedophile ring investigation comes out of Disney World. What is happening?
2:17
Speaker 1: And hopefully we get some answers since we still don't
2:19
Speaker 1: have them from the Epstein files. Then we're talking Donald Trump.
2:23
Speaker 1: because the orange Cheeto says everything that comes to his mind.
2:27
Speaker 1: And he recently took stage and went viral for saying
2:30
Speaker 1: that if you're black or Jewish and vote for Abdul Saeed,
2:33
Speaker 1: then you are crazy. He also just pretty much said
2:36
Speaker 1: that if you're black or Jewish, you're crazy. What is
2:39
Speaker 1: wrong with this man? Didn't celebrities say the darndest things, y'all?
2:42
Speaker 1: Streamer India Love says that she doesn't celebrate Halloween due
2:46
Speaker 1: to religion, sparking controversy around the conversation around whether people
2:51
Speaker 1: decide to draw the line in religious beliefs or what
2:56
Speaker 1: and how they see suits them and the hypocrisy around that.
2:58
Speaker 1: 2 Chainz versus Keith Lee. This isn't the versus that
3:02
Speaker 1: I thought we would be discussing ever. But 2 Chainz
3:06
Speaker 1: versus Keith Lee in a clip around, let's say, constructive criticism.
3:10
Speaker 2: There you go.
3:11
Speaker 1: There we go. And then before we tap out of here, y'all,
3:14
Speaker 1: this is not a sports podcast, but we are discussing
3:17
Speaker 1: our thoughts on the WNBA finals. Y'all, welcome to another episode.

Speaker 1: Are you friends with any Muslim people? I have been.
15:14
Speaker 8: Lies.
15:14
Speaker 2: Still?
15:15
Speaker 4: No.
15:15
Speaker 2: Yes, because you don't know them in the first place.
15:17
Speaker 1: Because they're not around.
15:19
Speaker 2: Oh, it disappeared.
15:21
Speaker 1: That's an entire religion of people. It's not a religion.
15:25
Speaker 1: It's not a religion.
15:25
Speaker 2: It's not a religion now.
15:26
Speaker 1: No. Would you be upset if somebody said we're going
15:29
Speaker 1: to turn all the churches into mental health facilities? That's different.
15:34
Speaker 2: Oh, it's different?
15:35
Speaker 1: Stop making racism an issue. This country is not racist.
15:40
Speaker 11: Oh.
15:41
Speaker 1: There might be a few, but in general... A few, maybe.
15:44
Speaker 1: You don't think anyone's racist in the country? I didn't
15:46
Speaker 1: say that. You don't think racism is a problem in
15:48
Speaker 1: the country? Some people are racist. You're never going to
15:51
Speaker 1: stop that. Majority or not. So stop pushing it like
15:55
Speaker 1: it's a big issue. And what are your thoughts on Muslims?
15:58
Speaker 2: Yes.
15:59
Speaker 1: What are my thoughts on Muslims? I just told you.
16:08
Speaker 1: You want them all to leave? I think they should
16:10
Speaker 1: be deported and go back to their own country. If
16:12
Speaker 1: you could give a message to Donald Trump, what would
16:14
Speaker 1: it be? Let's turn all the mosques into mental health institutions.
16:20
Speaker 6: Okay.
16:22
Speaker 2: In real time.
16:23
Speaker 1: Listen.
16:24
Speaker 2: In real time. Where was this rally at?
16:27
Speaker 1: I'd like to know about the jurisdiction. I'm not sure.
16:29
Speaker 2: They look like Florida people. Yeah, they look like Florida.
16:32
Speaker 2: Look at that palm tree. It's Florida. She's lobster red.
16:35
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, these are the people that you're living amongst.
16:39
Speaker 2: Yes.
16:40
Speaker 1: These are the people that are going to the polls.
16:43
Speaker 1: These are the people that don't see any problem with
16:47
Speaker 1: our leadership. with what's happening in this country, with how
16:51
Speaker 1: people that do not look like them are being treated.
16:55
Speaker 1: To bring in a whole.
16:56
Speaker 2: Religion, like... They should be deported.
17:00
Speaker 1: They should be deported as if it's a.
17:02
Speaker 2: You could be Muslim tomorrow if you want to. I
17:04
Speaker 2: could be Muslim tomorrow. Where would they deport me?
17:07
Speaker 1: Bro, y'all know I done dated some Muslims from motherfucking Harlem.
17:10
Speaker 2: Some niggas. Here we go. Born and raised, okay?
17:13
Speaker 1: Well, I'm just saying, born and raised.
17:15
Speaker 2: You, hey... You know... I still pray for... Yeah, no.
17:22
Speaker 1: But to know that there... And this is, unfortunately, I
17:28
Speaker 1: still think the 9-11 effect.
17:31
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. There's still a play for sure. Propaganda.
17:33
Speaker 1: The propaganda of what happened at this point, what, 25
17:37
Speaker 1: years ago?
17:38
Speaker 2: Was that three presidents ago?
17:39
Speaker 1: Like, disgusting.
17:42
Speaker 5: Yeah.
17:44
Speaker 1: This is literally who doesn't have to be told to
17:47
Speaker 1: go to the polls.
17:47
Speaker 2: Oh, no.
17:48
Speaker 1: Unfortunately.
17:49
Speaker 2: Right, yeah.
17:49
Speaker 1: There's no campaigning. You don't see fucking Kid Rock out
17:53
Speaker 1: here telling people to vote.
17:55
Speaker 4: Nope.
17:55
Speaker 1: We have to do this. And I know that as
17:57
Speaker 1: a community, we don't believe our voices are heard. As
18:01
Speaker 1: a community, we don't trust the healthcare system, which is
18:04
Speaker 1: what keeps us from going to get tested and things
18:06
Speaker 1: of that nature. But when it comes to what we
18:09
Speaker 1: are being faced with right now.
18:11
Speaker 10: Yeah.
18:12
Speaker 2: It starts local.
18:12
Speaker 8: What your grandparents, what your parents are going through with
18:15
Speaker 8: the health care, the economy, food instability, all of these
18:21
Speaker 8: things are affecting everybody. But these people are choosing to
18:24
Speaker 8: ignore it. Because, in my opinion, my POV.
18:27
Speaker 1: Go ahead, POV.
18:29
Speaker 8: This is the anti-black shit. It's the anti-Latino shit.
18:32
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? Well, you know, the Latinos, that's,
18:35
Speaker 2: you know. Yeah, yeah. Because now we're learning.
18:40
Speaker 1: The ones that know that they are brown.
18:42
Speaker 2: Not the Hispanics, but the Latinos.
18:44
Speaker 1: Hello. But the ones that understand that even if you
18:48
Speaker 1: say you're white, even if you check white in them
18:51
Speaker 1: sundown towns, wherever you go, you will not be seen
18:55
Speaker 1: as white.
18:55
Speaker 2: No.
18:56
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter your proximity. It doesn't matter how blonde
18:58
Speaker 1: your hair is.
18:59
Speaker 4: Nope.
18:59
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter how light your skin is.
19:01
Speaker 4: Nope.
19:01
Speaker 1: You ain't white.
19:02
Speaker 2: Nope. You ain't white.
19:04
Speaker 5: The funny part about these two clips to me is
19:07
Speaker 5: that a lot of times when you see conservative talking
19:12
Speaker 5: heads who are trying to convince people that like, oh,
19:16
Speaker 5: Democrats are the bad guys, whoop-de-whoop, and they'll be like, oh,
19:18
Speaker 5: you people are just sheep. You just go along with whatever,
19:21
Speaker 5: and you don't know anything for real. You're not doing,
19:24
Speaker 5: reading anything. You don't know history. You're just sheep, whatever
19:26
Speaker 5: the people tell you. And it's like, that's a prime
19:29
Speaker 5: example of two people who, who are just going along.
19:31
Speaker 2: With whatever they were told.
19:32
Speaker 5: Like, the first guy didn't know anything about Trump's administration.
19:36
Speaker 2: He didn't know anything about.
19:37
Speaker 5: Policy, what he's done, the things he's implemented.
19:40
Speaker 2: He has no idea.
19:41
Speaker 5: He just knows that Sean Hannity tells me, Fox News
19:45
Speaker 5: told me that.
19:46
Speaker 2: Whoopty, whoopty, whoop, and that's what they're rolling with.
19:48
Speaker 5: The other lady, she's just going with the same thing,
19:51
Speaker 5: the same conservative talking points, the same Islamophobia. The same, oh,
19:57
Speaker 5: they're not here to assimilate. Like, what happened to freedom?
19:59
Speaker 5: I thought y'all loved freedom. I thought y'all loved.
20:01
Speaker 1: I don't know if you picked up on it. Very
20:03
Speaker 1: much so the, I have black friends. When asked if
20:05
Speaker 1: she knew.
20:06
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, which I don't believe her at all. I
20:07
Speaker 2: don't believe when she said... I used to. I have before.
20:10
Speaker 2: What does that mean? They're not around. They're not around.
20:13
Speaker 2: What are you talking about? That's a lie, too.
20:15
Speaker 5: She never had no Muslim friends. You don't know anything
20:18
Speaker 5: about Muslim people. You don't know anything about the religion.
20:21
Speaker 2: You just know.
20:22
Speaker 5: you think Muslim people are here to bomb you and
20:24
Speaker 5: put you in.
20:27
Speaker 2: Sharia law and make you wear a mask in public.
20:29
Speaker 5: That's what you think America's going to turn into because
20:31
Speaker 5: Muslim people are here.
20:33
Speaker 1: It's so crazy that With social media, we now can
20:40
Speaker 1: see this. Like when I was first able to vote,
20:45
Speaker 1: I'm blessed to have been born when I was because
20:47
Speaker 1: I was able to vote for Obama in his first term.
20:51
Speaker 1: I had just turned 18. got to vote for him,
20:54
Speaker 1: these clips weren't present. Because, yeah, we had MySpace and
20:58
Speaker 1: things like that, but the talking heads.
21:00
Speaker 2: The access to just see them.
21:01
Speaker 1: The access to see so much of this was not prevalent, right?
21:04
Speaker 1: And even being from Florida, I grew up in predominantly
21:08
Speaker 1: black neighborhoods. So I didn't get to see this to
21:12
Speaker 1: the scale that it is. And it's really scary. It's
21:14
Speaker 1: really scary. And, you know, this episode is dropping on
21:19
Speaker 1: voting day, and we're hoping that we have some good
21:23
Speaker 1: news across the country. Hopefully some states flip.
21:28
Speaker 4: Yeah.
21:28
Speaker 1: And hopefully— and you know what I'm loving, actually?
21:31
Speaker 2: What's that?
21:34
Speaker 1: That I don't think I've ever seen. It's been so beautiful.
21:36
Speaker 1: How many Black people are— running for Senate, running for, like,
21:42
Speaker 1: running for positions of state, like, even just seeing, oh,
21:47
Speaker 1: my God, Angie Nixon was just at this rally. Oh, yeah.
21:51
Speaker 2: And she was dancing to, like, the Florida music. She
21:53
Speaker 2: was with Plies this weekend. With Plies. Yeah, yeah.
21:57
Speaker 1: Seeing the other, I want to say it's a governor.
22:00
Speaker 1: Where is he at? Was it Alabama who had the golds?
22:03
Speaker 2: Oh, had his fronts? Yeah.
22:04
Speaker 1: I think Huntsville or wherever.
22:06
Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, I don't remember what city it was,
22:07
Speaker 2: but somewhere in the south for sure. It was somewhere
22:08
Speaker 2: in the south.
22:09
Speaker 1: And seeing him just be able to show up as
22:11
Speaker 1: his black ass self. And then also when getting critiqued,
22:17
Speaker 1: it came back that where he governs is seeing a
22:22
Speaker 1: huge drop in crime. So he's making a difference. We've
22:25
Speaker 1: talked about the one in Baltimore. The Baltimore and Maryland.
22:28
Speaker 2: Yep, yep, yep.
22:29
Speaker 1: This is beautiful to see.
22:31
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to change. Unfortunately, under duress.
22:36
Speaker 5: But it's things like this that you can tell a
22:40
Speaker 5: lot of these people who are running, especially these black
22:43
Speaker 5: folks and even some of the Latino folks in New
22:47
Speaker 5: York who recently won races. It's like we're getting to
22:50
Speaker 5: a point now where. Regular people, quote unquote, are saying
22:56
Speaker 5: to themselves, okay, we can't trust nor do we really
22:59
Speaker 5: believe in these career politicians.
23:02
Speaker 2: We're going to just do it ourselves.
23:04
Speaker 5: If you feel like you have the acumen and the
23:08
Speaker 5: ability to speak and you understand the issues, you can
23:12
Speaker 5: be a Dr. Abdul Saeed who was a doctor, a
23:15
Speaker 5: doctor doing work in a community and decide like, no,
23:18
Speaker 5: I'm going to go do this. You could be Angie Nixon,
23:20
Speaker 5: who is a bookstore owner and someone who just feels
23:24
Speaker 5: passionately about where she's from and wants to see things
23:27
Speaker 5: be better. Regular people getting into politics is going to
23:30
Speaker 5: be one of the things I think that's going to
23:32
Speaker 5: transform the Democratic Party.
23:35
Speaker 1: Not only that, can I say how awesome it is
23:37
Speaker 1: that everyone is saying they want their own Mamdani's?
23:40
Speaker 11: Yes.
23:40
Speaker 5: Yes.
23:41
Speaker 1: Like having a 35, 36 year old do what he's
23:43
Speaker 1: doing in politics. in the largest city with the most people.
23:52
Speaker 1: I mean, I know maybe in competition to like San
23:54
Speaker 1: Francisco and things, but I think what's also dope is
23:59
Speaker 1: our idea, when I say our, I'm talking about millennials
24:02
Speaker 1: and older, our vision of politicians was a suited and
24:06
Speaker 1: booted white man.
24:08
Speaker 2: The old boys club.
24:09
Speaker 1: The old boys club. And so it's been really beautiful
24:13
Speaker 1: within our lifetime to see us getting into making change.
24:17
Speaker 1: And Angie Nixon, like I said, in AOC, she's been very,
24:22
Speaker 1: very just in front of people.
24:24
Speaker 2: And seeing these- Justin Johnson. Yes, keep going, keep going.
24:26
Speaker 5: And like all of these young Congress people who are like,
24:29
Speaker 5: we're activated. We're ready to do this thing. And we're
24:32
Speaker 5: not scared of the old boys club. Like, we represent
24:37
Speaker 5: our constituents. We're not representing our own desire to be
24:42
Speaker 5: in power and to be in control of shit. We
24:44
Speaker 5: want to make change, real change, for the people who
24:47
Speaker 5: voted for us in the first place.
24:49
Speaker 1: And I will say, too, I know that we are
24:52
Speaker 1: in a country that technically has a two-party system. This
24:57
Speaker 1: is where I also, and I know he's not here today,
25:00
Speaker 1: but when we were talking with Deontay Kyle and we
25:02
Speaker 1: were talking about infiltrating from the inside.
25:05
Speaker 2: Yeah.
25:06
Speaker 1: This is what you have to do. If all of
25:08
Speaker 1: these black politicians decided to go and create a Green Party,
25:12
Speaker 1: it would just take votes away from this two-party system
25:14
Speaker 1: that essentially we are built in in terms of our democracy, right?
25:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty... And so us....
25:21
Speaker 1: Infiltrating these systems and getting in is where we're going
25:25
Speaker 1: to make the change.
25:26
Speaker 2: Yeah.
25:26
Speaker 1: And then maybe eventually we get to a place where
25:28
Speaker 1: we can have our own hospitals and have our own,
25:31
Speaker 1: you know, we have our own social media apps. We
25:32
Speaker 1: have our own stores. We have, but in this country
25:36
Speaker 1: to be able to do that as 13% minorities.
25:38
Speaker 2: Yeah.
25:38
Speaker 1: It's, It's incredible to see so many of us. And
25:43
Speaker 1: I really hope that you guys are doing the due
25:45
Speaker 1: diligence and seeing what their policies are, what change they're
25:49
Speaker 1: trying to make on a local level. Again, in places
25:52
Speaker 1: like Florida, where I'm registered to vote, to know that
25:56
Speaker 1: they've gone as far as removing critical race theory from
25:58
Speaker 1: schools and the not saying gay. It's important that we
26:03
Speaker 1: push back on those things. And seeing, I know we
26:06
Speaker 1: talked about in Texas, they're supposed to be pushing the
26:09
Speaker 1: agenda to learn gay. Jewish history.
26:11
Speaker 2: Yeah.
26:12
Speaker 8: After wiping out critical race theory, after damn near dismantling
26:17
Speaker 8: anything that talks about black Americans and their historical contribution
26:21
Speaker 8: to this country.
26:22
Speaker 2: Yeah. So, you know, it's funny you mentioned that too.
26:25
Speaker 8: Uh, there's a politician in Michigan, a Democrat who they
26:29
Speaker 8: asked her, who is she going to support?
26:30
Speaker 2: Um, You're talking about Haley Stevens. Haley Stevens. What'd she do?
26:35
Speaker 2: She said she's not voting for it.
26:37
Speaker 8: She don't put her support behind Saeed.
26:39
Speaker 2: So this is the background of this. Hold on, let's.
26:44
Speaker 1: Get into this background. Wait, wait, this is the white woman.
26:46
Speaker 2: Yes. So Haley Stevens used to be a congresswoman. She's
26:50
Speaker 2: running for Senate. As a Democrat.
26:53
Speaker 1: As a Democrat.
26:54
Speaker 5: Running for Senate. She got elected, I think, in like
26:56
Speaker 5: 2018 or 2019. She got reelected like three times. Like
26:59
Speaker 5: she's a known Democratic figure in Michigan.
27:04
Speaker 2: And cosplays as one.
27:05
Speaker 6: Yeah.
27:05
Speaker 2: Like Fetterman. She had, matter of fact, not just any
27:09
Speaker 2: Democrat either.
27:10
Speaker 5: In the primary, I think she won something like 65
27:14
Speaker 5: or 67% of the black vote in Michigan. So people
27:18
Speaker 5: were more with her than with Abdul. Black people were
27:21
Speaker 5: in Michigan. So she won a big part of this thing.
27:25
Speaker 5: But ultimately, Abdul Saeed won the primary, so she's out.
27:29
Speaker 5: She said at that time, I'm going to support Abdul.
27:31
Speaker 2: I'm a Democrat.
27:32
Speaker 4: Support the party. Whoop-de-whoop-de-whoop-de-whoop.
27:34
Speaker 2: She lost that race, by the way, by one point. Oh, shit.
27:37
Speaker 1: Okay. It was 48.5 to, like, 47.5.
27:37
Speaker 2: Like, it was a close win for Abdul.
27:38
Speaker 4: So.
27:46
Speaker 5: Her and Abdul have some beef, and he was basically like, listen,
27:49
Speaker 5: I don't need this lady in my party.
27:51
Speaker 2: I don't need you supporting me. Whatever you got going on, like,
27:54
Speaker 2: go over there with it.
27:55
Speaker 9: Right.
27:56
Speaker 5: Because of that, she gets salty and goes to a
28:00
Speaker 5: black church with his Republican opponent... And officially announces outside
28:05
Speaker 5: of this black church that she is now supporting Mike
28:08
Speaker 5: Rogers for the candidacy in Michigan at a black church.
28:13
Speaker 5: After 67% of black people voted for her.
28:16
Speaker 2: In the primary. You know, it's interesting.
28:18
Speaker 8: Why do you feel so comfortable? Granted, we have some
28:21
Speaker 8: chinks in our armor with that. that we got to
28:23
Speaker 8: clean up in our own culture community. But they always
28:26
Speaker 8: go to the black church. They always go to the
28:28
Speaker 8: black community. They always go to the black restaurants.
28:31
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I think going to the black church
28:35
Speaker 1: is where you're going to lean in, unfortunately, to the
28:39
Speaker 1: black conservative. Which conservative talking points, if we talk about it,
28:43
Speaker 1: I know like if you're black, Democrat, no.
28:47
Speaker 2: A lot of the....
28:50
Speaker 1: Ways in which Republicans lean into their policy do align
28:54
Speaker 1: heavily with Black conservatism and Christian beliefs.
28:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, for sure.
28:59
Speaker 1: Which is why I have family members who, when I say,
29:02
Speaker 1: how the hell you would vote for Trump, I view
29:04
Speaker 1: as a fucking, with, family that are here on green cards.
29:08
Speaker 2: Right. Again, they're going to get wrapped up. They're going
29:10
Speaker 2: to call a man too.
29:11
Speaker 1: Listen, if they end up back in Jamaica, that ain't
29:13
Speaker 1: on me. You voted for America.
29:14
Speaker 2: You voted for America. That's what you wanted.
29:16
Speaker 5: They're going to be at the office and they're going
29:17
Speaker 5: to call a man and she's going to be like,
29:19
Speaker 5: who you vote for?
29:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
29:21
Speaker 1: Listen, listen, I am not a hypocrite. The same way
29:25
Speaker 1: I talk about the white Latinas that felt the need
29:27
Speaker 1: to vote for motherfucking Trump.
29:28
Speaker 2: The white Latinas.
29:28
Speaker 1: If my own family start getting deported, bitch, I know
29:31
Speaker 1: who voted for Trump out of y'all niggas.
29:32
Speaker 6: Right.
29:32
Speaker 1: And I will see y'all when I go to Negril.
29:35
Speaker 2: Yo. No plantain for you.
29:37
Speaker 1: No oxtail gravy for you.
29:39
Speaker 2: You don't have no lunch. Okay.
29:46
Speaker 5: But the thing with Haley Stevens is that, like, first
29:49
Speaker 5: of all, she's getting blasted.
29:50
Speaker 2: She did this shit. I mean, she did this shit yesterday.
29:52
Speaker 2: So the word devil for the voting. And that's the
29:53
Speaker 2: fucked up. You didn't do it a month ago. A
29:55
Speaker 2: month ago, none of this shit. You did it right now.
29:57
Speaker 2: The timing is crazy.
29:58
Speaker 5: Going to this black church, because you got such a
30:01
Speaker 5: big part of the black vote, you're thinking that, oh...
30:05
Speaker 5: They follow me. They fuck with me. First off, let's
30:07
Speaker 5: be clear. Nobody even really fucking knew. She wasn't a
30:11
Speaker 5: national brand that anyone just knew before this.
30:13
Speaker 2: It's an assumed choice. It's an assumed thing that she's
30:16
Speaker 2: going to filter off.
30:17
Speaker 5: Some of those posts. Supposedly, whatever's going on over there.
30:21
Speaker 5: Just like Fetterman. Yeah, Fetterman too.
30:23
Speaker 8: He's pulling off his fucking blue tie and put on
30:26
Speaker 8: his red one even though he's a Democrat.
30:27
Speaker 2: But this is why... The thing is, they represent.
30:30
Speaker 8: to be these big states.
30:31
Speaker 2: Michigan and Pennsylvania is very important. And I ain't gonna lie.
30:36
Speaker 1: I like Abdul. He was just lifting weights with Vic Mensa.
30:39
Speaker 2: He's the man.
30:41
Speaker 5: I seen Abdul on Vic Mensa's show. Did you see
30:45
Speaker 5: him lift the weight?
30:47
Speaker 2: Yeah. Our frame of reference is gonna be totally different
30:49
Speaker 2: from yours. Oh, you were counting the weight? Yes, I
30:52
Speaker 2: was looking at it like, damn, that nigga strong.
30:54
Speaker 5: The way you put yourself to sleep is different from
30:56
Speaker 5: how we put ourselves to sleep. Right.
30:59
Speaker 1: Shout out to Vic Mensa.
31:00
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I've seen that dude on cooking shows. Like,
31:02
Speaker 5: he's doing everything to.
31:04
Speaker 1: The Mom Donny way.
31:05
Speaker 2: Yeah. The Mom Donny way. The Mom Donny way. To
31:08
Speaker 2: touch the people. Mix of five, right? Yo, absolutely. I
31:12
Speaker 2: dropped a clip in real time. Oh, that was you? Yeah, yeah.
31:18
Speaker 8: So, a black veteran was talking to a MAGA influencer.
31:22
Speaker 1: Above This Is America.
31:23
Speaker 5: And you've probably seen him before. It's right there. There
31:26
Speaker 5: we go.
31:27
Speaker 7: Yep.
31:28
Speaker 8: Fantastic exchange. You probably saw it.
31:31
Speaker 2: Maybe you haven't.
31:32
Speaker 1: OK, let's play this. Reporter interviews black man protesting Donald
31:38
Speaker 1: Trump and gets more than he bargained for.
31:40
Speaker 2: How are we doing? So why are you out here protesting?
31:44
Speaker 2: Why would I be protesting? It's a celebration of black liberation.
31:48
Speaker 2: You look like you voted for Trump. You think, well,
31:53
Speaker 2: I'm a journalist. Hey, I hear you. I hear that, man.
31:56
Speaker 2: But you seem like you got that MAGA feel to you.
31:58
Speaker 2: But what's your question? Is it because I'm white?
32:01
Speaker 3: It's because I can smell a racism all the way.
32:03
Speaker 2: But what you got for me? Were you happy when
32:05
Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk was assassinated? Listen, I'm cool with him getting smoked, right?
32:09
Speaker 2: The same energy they had when they talked about George Floyd.
32:11
Speaker 2: Because what does Charlie Kirk represent?
32:13
Speaker 3: The same man who celebrated Black Lives Matter Plaza being
32:16
Speaker 3: torn down?
32:17
Speaker 1: The same man who said.
32:18
Speaker 3: That 13% of blacks commit 50% of their crimes?
32:22
Speaker 2: Isn't that true?
32:23
Speaker 4: No, it isn't though.
32:24
Speaker 2: So who got the most rapes? White men. Who got
32:27
Speaker 2: the most serial killers? White men.
32:28
Speaker 3: Who got the most fucking genocide in this country?
32:31
Speaker 2: White men.
32:32
Speaker 3: Who fucking pushed more dope? The FBI under Operation Midnight Climax.
32:36
Speaker 2: So please, so come on, man. So let's talk about it.
32:39
Speaker 3: So if you want to talk about crime, let's talk
32:40
Speaker 3: about white on everybody crime. And remember, boys and girls,
32:43
Speaker 3: the only good Nazi is a dead motherfucking Nazi.
32:47
Speaker 2: So if America's so bad, why do you live here?
32:49
Speaker 2: So first of all, we built this bitch.
32:53
Speaker 3: America wouldn't be shit without black people.
32:56
Speaker 4: Understand that.
32:57
Speaker 3: Your ass would have got kicked by the natives here
32:59
Speaker 3: without black people. Everything you see in this bitch, these
33:02
Speaker 3: monuments built on black sacred land. Don't fucking forget that.
33:05
Speaker 3: So that's why we're not going nowhere. If you don't
33:08
Speaker 3: like it here, get your ass back on the fucking Mayflower.
33:10
Speaker 5: Yeah.
33:11
Speaker 3: In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean like you did us.
33:14
Speaker 5: What went wrong in your life that made you harbor
33:16
Speaker 5: so much hatred against white people in the United States
33:18
Speaker 5: of America?
33:18
Speaker 2: Let me tell you something, man.
33:19
Speaker 3: I'm a motherfucking United States Army veteran. I served for
33:22
Speaker 3: 22 years and lived much of four days.
33:24
Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with white people, only the racists.
33:26
Speaker 1: So, hey, if my words bugging you, go.
33:28
Speaker 2: Look in the fucking mirror.
33:30
Speaker 3: The same freedom of speech that let Charlie Kirk come
33:32
Speaker 3: in here and desecrate black women is the same freedom
33:35
Speaker 3: of speech for me to call his little dick.
33:37
Speaker 2: Demon ass out. Because Charlie Kirk could never see me.
33:40
Speaker 3: Right, that's the problem with white America. You love making
33:42
Speaker 3: zeros into heroes. What the fuck did Charlie Kirk do
33:45
Speaker 3: for this country that I haven't done for mine?
33:48
Speaker 2: Church.
33:48
Speaker 3: What the fuck did he do that I haven't done? Hey,
33:50
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk could never see me. Get the fuck out
33:52
Speaker 3: of here.
33:53
Speaker 1: College dropout. The beaten fucking college children.
33:56
Speaker 3: Y'all love making zeros into heroes. Charlie Kirk, weak ass,
33:59
Speaker 3: could never see me. Fuck him and anybody who.
34:02
Speaker 1: Still support him.
34:03
Speaker 2: Hey, but you know what?
34:05
Speaker 3: I heard that he fucking now.
34:07
Speaker 2: He leaned to the left.
34:09
Speaker 3: He lost that gun debate by a long shot.
34:12
Speaker 2: Watch this, watch this.
34:14
Speaker 5: Oh, okay.
34:15
Speaker 2: Oh my. Yeah.
34:17
Speaker 5: At the end of that, there's a part where the guy.
34:20
Speaker 2: Who's with the microphone, he said, why are you so hateful?
34:23
Speaker 2: Of course. They were walking away. Of course. Like, ignored everything.
34:27
Speaker 2: All the other shit.
34:27
Speaker 1: I will say, and I love him saying, I served
34:30
Speaker 1: my country for 22 years.
34:32
Speaker 5: Because that would be the thing that they, when he says...
34:36
Speaker 5: if you hate it here, why don't you go somewhere else?
34:39
Speaker 5: That's a fucking bullshit ass statement they try to use.
34:41
Speaker 5: He said, no, you go back to the Mayflower. But
34:45
Speaker 5: his response was, to your point, I actually did this shit.
34:49
Speaker 5: I was actually outside in the field risking my life
34:54
Speaker 5: for this shit.
34:54
Speaker 2: You said you were around here asking me questions. The
34:57
Speaker 2: fuck did you do? He said he's just a journalist.
35:00
Speaker 2: I'm just a journalist, man.
35:02
Speaker 5: I don't have any affiliation with anything, nigga.
35:04
Speaker 2: Fuck out of here.
35:05
Speaker 1: Well, y'all, this is America.
35:07
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. This is America.
35:09
Speaker 1: Let's get into it. First topic on the docket. This
35:15
Speaker 1: is heartbreaking. I'm not going to lie. I started crying
35:18
Speaker 1: when I read this and what happened. So if you
35:22
Speaker 1: have been living under a rock, we're getting into the
35:25
Speaker 1: news and what took place in New York, literally just
35:30
Speaker 1: at the end of the month. 15-year-old Javits Frimpong. Literally
35:37
Speaker 1: just a young boy, just moved here from Ghana. He
35:40
Speaker 1: was fatally shot on his way home from school. His
35:44
Speaker 1: family is calling for justice. This took place on October 29th.
35:47
Speaker 1: I don't even want to play the video of his
35:51
Speaker 1: father speaking. It's so sad. And there is video evidence
35:55
Speaker 1: of this taking place. Now, it does look like he
35:58
Speaker 1: was killed by two boys.
36:00
Speaker 2: Three.
36:02
Speaker 1: Three boys, black.
36:04
Speaker 2: Well, assumed, yeah.
36:05
Speaker 1: Assumed black and assumed minors. And so investigation currently is
36:11
Speaker 1: still happening. His father said that Javits had reported being
36:16
Speaker 1: bullied at the school and that the two students who
36:20
Speaker 1: were involved in this bullying had been suspended. Police have
36:25
Speaker 1: not confirmed the connection whatsoever. With the shooters to these bullies.
36:29
Speaker 10: Right.
36:30
Speaker 1: But as of October 30th, investigators were still searching for
36:36
Speaker 1: three people in connection with his death. Since then, Trump
36:40
Speaker 1: has approved a visa for his mother to come from
36:44
Speaker 1: Ghana to come into the country.
36:46
Speaker 2: Initiated by me and my mommy. Initiated by my mommy.
36:48
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
36:48
Speaker 2: Gotta give him props.
36:49
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Let's give him props. And this has unfortunately spewed
36:53
Speaker 1: a lot of controversy in terms of conversations that are
36:57
Speaker 1: now being had. Clearly, black-on-black crime being a conversation, quote-unquote.
37:05
Speaker 1: I also want to bring in the Diaspora War conversation,
37:08
Speaker 1: yet again, unfortunately, being brought up into this. It is
37:12
Speaker 1: being said that the bullies at school were of Jamaican descent.
37:17
Speaker 6: Okay.
37:17
Speaker 1: This is bullying for the kid because he's African.
37:21
Speaker 2: I would say that was the nature of the bullying
37:23
Speaker 2: because he's African.
37:24
Speaker 8: Yeah, because this wasn't the first time that he's, the
37:28
Speaker 8: kid has, because the kid, he's had problems with these
37:32
Speaker 8: other kids and he told his dad about that.
37:35
Speaker 2: Then his dad just didn't know that he actually reported it.
37:39
Speaker 2: Got you.
37:39
Speaker 1: And let's be very clear, not to put blame on
37:42
Speaker 1: the FBAs here, but when you're 15 years old, when
37:47
Speaker 1: our conversations amongst our own community are are constantly, whether
37:52
Speaker 1: it's colorism, whether it's who was here first, whether who's
37:56
Speaker 1: more black than now, who gets to be seen as black,
37:58
Speaker 1: who's viewed as black. The teenagers are taking in these
38:02
Speaker 1: conversations that adults are having. With no context.
38:05
Speaker 2: With no context. With no history.
38:07
Speaker 1: And it's the, I don't want to say racism because
38:10
Speaker 1: we're all black, but unfortunately, these conversations that we're having
38:14
Speaker 1: on these podcasts are being brought into these schools with
38:16
Speaker 1: kids who aren't doing the research. And now they're unfortunately
38:20
Speaker 1: dividing themselves as well. And if we also talk about,
38:23
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was like for y'all. Maybe
38:25
Speaker 1: you could bring it up.
38:26
Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
38:27
Speaker 1: There weren't... I didn't experience this because there weren't many,
38:31
Speaker 1: I would say, and I don't want to say Africans,
38:33
Speaker 1: but my school, the blacks were Caribbean. We divided ourselves
38:38
Speaker 1: by islands, right?
38:40
Speaker 2: However.
38:41
Speaker 1: in conversations around people from Africa, very ignorant. African boot scratcher,
38:47
Speaker 1: thinking that they lived with lions, thinking their villages weren't
38:50
Speaker 1: built up. There was a large ignorance around what Africa,
38:56
Speaker 1: it was almost a fallacy or a myth. No one
39:01
Speaker 1: had been to the motherland. And now that we're now traveling,
39:04
Speaker 1: and thank God, are becoming more educated. I've been to
39:07
Speaker 1: South Africa, Ghana twice, and Nigeria. And I plan to
39:11
Speaker 1: visit more countries on the motherland, right?
39:13
Speaker 2: Insert cash register here.
39:14
Speaker 1: Cha-ching. Cha-ching. Cha-ching. No, one of them, I got a
39:19
Speaker 1: flight deal. I went to South Africa for like $ 500
39:21
Speaker 1: on a flight deal.
39:22
Speaker 2: Damn. That was before shit got cold. Yeah, I'm about
39:25
Speaker 2: to say $ 500. That was your shit.
39:26
Speaker 1: $ 500 out of D.C. It was one of those, I
39:29
Speaker 1: don't know. if you remember, it was one like, I
39:33
Speaker 1: don't know, New Year's or Christmas night.
39:35
Speaker 4: Right.
39:36
Speaker 1: There was a website, Mad Flight Deals. If you were
39:39
Speaker 1: up on Twitter, everyone shared it.
39:41
Speaker 2: Oh, I do remember that. I went to.
39:42
Speaker 1: Dubai for $ 220, 000, and I went to South Africa for $ 500, 000. Oh,
39:46
Speaker 1: I didn't even tell my friend. My friend wasn't picking
39:48
Speaker 1: up Crystal. I said, hey, bitch, we're going to Dubai
39:51
Speaker 1: and South Africa. I just bought the ticket.
39:53
Speaker 2: Right.
39:54
Speaker 1: Because like why not $ 220 $ 220 and then luckily the
39:59
Speaker 1: next morning my other friend Taylor was able to join
40:01
Speaker 1: but yeah I bought them tickets like bitch we on
40:03
Speaker 1: a divide oh they don't exist anymore we.
40:05
Speaker 2: Trying to go to Cape Town in February it is
40:07
Speaker 2: $ 800 to fly two hours.
40:08
Speaker 1: Domestically Like, from Atlanta to New York, it's costing $ 800
40:13
Speaker 1: right now.
40:14
Speaker 2: This shit's getting crazy. I think, um.
40:16
Speaker 1: I mean, me and A. King gonna try to hit
40:18
Speaker 1: that green and.
40:18
Speaker 2: White next week. You know the vibe. Oh, you know
40:20
Speaker 2: what they tried to scam me yesterday? The green and white? How?
40:24
Speaker 2: So the green and white, they sent me... The green
40:26
Speaker 2: and white.
40:26
Speaker 1: The green and white is Frontier, by the way.
40:27
Speaker 2: Frontier, yeah, yeah. Hey, hey, hey. We're still friendly. We're
40:31
Speaker 2: still friends.
40:32
Speaker 1: Until we're not. We love giving shit nicknames.
40:34
Speaker 2: So they sent me an email saying, oh.
40:36
Speaker 5: Your refund has been processed. Refund has been processed. So
40:42
Speaker 5: I'm looking at it like it was October 5th, which
40:44
Speaker 5: is the day we left to go.
40:45
Speaker 2: To New York. I'm like, but I got on a flight.
40:48
Speaker 2: Why would I get a refund? So I'm looking at it.
40:49
Speaker 5: I'm like, Let me just Google this shit real quick
40:51
Speaker 5: because let me Google this email address that it came from.
40:55
Speaker 2: Stupid Reddit articles. A mile long.
40:58
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah. The new frontier got hacked in. There's all
41:02
Speaker 5: these fishing joints.
41:04
Speaker 2: Don't click nothing. Don't open nothing. Don't touch nothing. I
41:06
Speaker 2: was like, nope.
41:09
Speaker 5: The fishing issue that we've been experiencing.
41:11
Speaker 2: But to your point, I think the... Just like love
41:16
Speaker 2: starts in the home, ignorance starts in the home. Sure.
41:20
Speaker 8: For those who have a home. There are kids that
41:23
Speaker 8: are living in a home, but they don't have a home.
41:26
Speaker 4: Right.
41:27
Speaker 8: They don't have any guidance, structure, consequential ideas.
41:34
Speaker 2: I hate the... I.
41:36
Speaker 4: Don't like that. I know.
41:37
Speaker 1: I hate it, too.
41:38
Speaker 2: But we're here.
41:38
Speaker 8: But I hate that there's four wars about this, and
41:41
Speaker 8: I hate that it comes up, but it also raises
41:43
Speaker 8: the issue that I'm seeing even when the... I saw
41:45
Speaker 8: this one clip, it was a Ghanaian sister and a
41:48
Speaker 8: Black American, and he's there in the community supporting and helping.
41:52
Speaker 2: She's like, no, we don't need your help.
41:53
Speaker 8: And I get the anger and emotional outrage of it,
41:56
Speaker 8: but we're not listening to each other.
41:58
Speaker 2: And I think that's always been the problem. I agree.
42:00
Speaker 10: Right?
42:00
Speaker 2: We're just living and existing amongst each other, and that's it.
42:03
Speaker 8: But when something like that happened, that little boy could
42:05
Speaker 8: have been any one of our sons, brothers, nieces, nephews, cousins.
42:09
Speaker 8: So that's why you see the community, because there's been
42:12
Speaker 8: an issue in that community, in the Bronx.
42:15
Speaker 2: Everywhere, but in the Bronx in particular.
42:17
Speaker 8: So the community naturally is going to band together because
42:19
Speaker 8: they want just because these kids are still on the loose.
42:23
Speaker 8: And there's another part of the video that no one
42:28
Speaker 8: has seen that I hope they never show.
42:30
Speaker 2: We only saw the running. Oh, they have the whole thing?
42:34
Speaker 2: They have to. All the flock cameras and all that shit. Yeah,
42:36
Speaker 2: that's true. So that kid was our family member. Right.
42:40
Speaker 8: So I think we have to not amplify those discussions.
42:44
Speaker 8: We got to just pour into that family, pour into
42:47
Speaker 8: that mother who was granted a visa.
42:49
Speaker 2: Now she has to bury her kid. Yeah.
42:51
Speaker 4: Right?
42:51
Speaker 1: And send her kid here to have a better life.
42:54
Speaker 5: And figure out what type of dialogue are we going
42:56
Speaker 5: to need in the communities, not just the Bronx, but
42:58
Speaker 5: everywhere else.
43:00
Speaker 2: Right. Well, we could protect these kids.
43:01
Speaker 1: Can we play real quick? Speaking of because you're bringing
43:04
Speaker 1: up the Bronx, you're bringing up community. Cardi B had
43:08
Speaker 1: quite a bit to say about this as well.
43:11
Speaker 2: To Javits.
43:14
Speaker 7: Is the reason why I would never raise a kid
43:19
Speaker 7: in the Bronx. I would never raise a kid in Harlem.
43:24
Speaker 7: I would never raise a kid in Washington Heights. I
43:26
Speaker 7: will never raise a kid. I don't really know much
43:28
Speaker 7: about Brooklyn or Queens. I swear to God, I will
43:32
Speaker 7: never raise no kid in a New York public school.
43:37
Speaker 7: And I will never want to raise a kid in
43:40
Speaker 7: the hood in New York. Because let me tell you something.
43:43
Speaker 7: It's really a survival.
43:44
Speaker 1: Shit out here. And it's not even funny.
43:46
Speaker 7: I'm not even exaggerating.
43:48
Speaker 6: Like.
43:49
Speaker 7: People will always tell you as a kid, like, it's like,
43:51
Speaker 7: if you mind your business, nobody will fuck you.
43:53
Speaker 4: Nope.
43:54
Speaker 1: And that is a motherfucking lie.
43:55
Speaker 4: That's a lie.
43:56
Speaker 7: I don't know what the fuck is wrong with these
43:58
Speaker 7: kids in New York City. They are mean as fuck.
44:03
Speaker 7: What happened to Javits.
44:06
Speaker 1: Is the reason why I wouldn't... So she... And she
44:11
Speaker 1: goes further, but... Can't even be.
44:13
Speaker 2: Mad at her. No, she's not... Listen, she's not... She's.
44:15
Speaker 1: Saying this from a place of privilege as well.
44:17
Speaker 2: I could... And also live there.
44:19
Speaker 1: But this isn't, and I just want to also, this
44:23
Speaker 1: isn't just a New York thing, though.
44:25
Speaker 2: It isn't.
44:26
Speaker 1: Like, even growing up in Florida, going to public schools.
44:29
Speaker 2: It's tough.
44:30
Speaker 1: Kids, kids, and like you said, it's learned behavior. There's
44:35
Speaker 1: parents becoming parents before they should be parents. There's kids
44:38
Speaker 1: raising kids.
44:39
Speaker 5: There's their cousins and brothers who are acting a fool
44:42
Speaker 5: who they learned from.
44:43
Speaker 1: There are children that are flexing that at eight years old,
44:47
Speaker 1: they know how to take care of themselves because they
44:49
Speaker 1: don't have adults around. But also imagine how we grew
44:53
Speaker 1: up and imagine the economy we're in now. It's harder.
44:58
Speaker 1: It's even harder. These kids are forced with this. And unfortunately,
45:02
Speaker 1: there's pent up anger. There's pent up aggression. And what
45:05
Speaker 1: do they do? They take it out on these other
45:07
Speaker 1: fucking kids. So apparently that's the issue too. These kids
45:10
Speaker 1: got into a fight. And this boy from Africa won
45:15
Speaker 1: and embarrassed the bully. Right. So then there's this lack
45:20
Speaker 1: of emotional intelligence.
45:22
Speaker 2: Regulation. You talk about that a lot.
45:24
Speaker 1: Now you feel violated. Now you're embarrassed.
45:26
Speaker 2: I got to go get the get back.
45:27
Speaker 1: And the way that you want to get your get back.
45:29
Speaker 1: And again, if these things aren't taught in the home
45:33
Speaker 1: on a de-escalation or of a, you know, Well, you
45:39
Speaker 1: might get your ass whooped.
45:40
Speaker 11: Mm-hmm.
45:41
Speaker 1: Fuck around and find out. Even the fuck around and
45:43
Speaker 1: find out ain't being taught at a young enough age.
45:44
Speaker 4: Right.
45:45
Speaker 1: Because if you think you big and bad.
45:47
Speaker 2: Step, go ahead, jump. Go ahead and step. Be big,
45:48
Speaker 2: but yeah. Go ahead and step.
45:50
Speaker 1: But this idea that you would take away a life
45:53
Speaker 1: out of embarrassment or to lose a fight is just.
45:55
Speaker 2: And don't negate the vortex of social media, too, playing
45:58
Speaker 2: a part in this. No, that doesn't help either. You
45:59
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying?
46:00
Speaker 8: They're seeing a lot of the activity with a certain
46:02
Speaker 8: particular brand of music. We can't ignore that either. Which
46:06
Speaker 8: they lean into social media. Run a drill, right? Well,
46:10
Speaker 8: that was essentially what that was.
46:12
Speaker 4: Right.
46:12
Speaker 5: Well, there's a couple of things here, too, that I
46:15
Speaker 5: feel like are worth talking about a little bit. A,
46:18
Speaker 5: the first thing that she said about survival shit out here, right?
46:22
Speaker 2: When you talk about how.
46:24
Speaker 5: To reduce crime, if you talk to sociologists, if you
46:27
Speaker 5: talk to people who actually study the issue, They'll tell
46:31
Speaker 5: you the same things. If you improve a community's quality
46:35
Speaker 5: of life, quality of life, education, health care, employment opportunities.
46:40
Speaker 5: If you can raise those three things, you'll see a
46:43
Speaker 5: drastic reduction in that because people won't feel like they
46:46
Speaker 5: just have to survive by any means and just do
46:49
Speaker 5: whatever and basically kind of lose life. levels of humanity
46:53
Speaker 5: for everyone else because they're just trying to survive.
46:56
Speaker 2: That's not an excuse.
46:57
Speaker 5: That's just if you put people in that kind of environment,
47:00
Speaker 5: that's what you're going to get.
47:01
Speaker 1: It just sucks because even leaning to these certain neighborhoods
47:06
Speaker 1: in New York, and again, you could draw it across
47:09
Speaker 1: the country or bring it across the country, people who
47:13
Speaker 1: at one point were surviving are now trying to survive.
47:17
Speaker 1: So to know that the median income to be able
47:20
Speaker 1: to live comfortably right now across the country is like
47:23
Speaker 1: a six figure income.
47:24
Speaker 2: If you don't have six figures, you gonna be in
47:25
Speaker 2: bad shape.
47:26
Speaker 1: Literally 15 years ago, six figures was, For middle America, baby,
47:30
Speaker 1: you a millionaire. What do you mean?
47:31
Speaker 5: Six figures was your house, two cars, your kids go
47:34
Speaker 5: to school, your refrigerator is full.
47:36
Speaker 1: You don't need government assistance. And to know that now
47:40
Speaker 1: the median average has dropped and you need this to survive.
47:44
Speaker 1: But it's still not what people are making. And we
47:47
Speaker 1: have all of these jobs being taken away from us
47:49
Speaker 1: with the advancement of AI.
47:51
Speaker 2: Right.
47:53
Speaker 1: I would say what we're seeing is the aftermath of
47:55
Speaker 1: the pandemic from the hybrid working environment to virtually. And
48:02
Speaker 1: it's so much happening all at once and not enough
48:05
Speaker 1: at the same time. Yeah. And unfortunately, you still risk
48:09
Speaker 1: these behaviors happening in private schools too.
48:11
Speaker 2: Yeah.
48:12
Speaker 1: Then you got the drugs and the guns coming.
48:14
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a lot of variables that have come into
48:17
Speaker 5: play that have led to many Javits over the course
48:21
Speaker 5: of years. But I do want to say this about
48:24
Speaker 5: this case and we're talking about it now.
48:26
Speaker 2: It's obviously a very talked about case.
48:28
Speaker 5: In the news and on social media. But I also
48:31
Speaker 5: want people to understand that this kind of, talk about this,
48:36
Speaker 5: we're not talking about a cop killing a kid or
48:38
Speaker 5: anything like that.
48:39
Speaker 2: People have been doing work in communities.
48:42
Speaker 5: That hasn't been amplified or talked about enough for a
48:45
Speaker 5: long time. Because a lot of times you'll see people
48:48
Speaker 5: when a cop kills somebody, you'll see somebody rush and
48:50
Speaker 5: be like, well, y'all don't act like this when there's
48:52
Speaker 5: regular violence and whoopty whoopty whoop.
48:54
Speaker 2: And I'm like.
48:55
Speaker 5: That's not true, though. There are people, there are pastors,
48:58
Speaker 5: there are youth leaders, there are local activists, people who
49:01
Speaker 5: you'll never hear their names. They won't end up on
49:03
Speaker 5: MSNBC or CNN, who have been in communities in Chicago.
49:07
Speaker 5: They love to bring up Chicago and all places where
49:09
Speaker 5: there's violence, who have been doing community work, trying to
49:12
Speaker 5: improve their cities for a long time, whose names we
49:16
Speaker 5: don't hear. So I just want this to serve as
49:19
Speaker 5: another example of just because you don't, this case is
49:22
Speaker 5: getting a lot of attention, but there are people doing
49:24
Speaker 5: the work.
49:24
Speaker 1: Speaking of attention too, please watch where you're receiving your
49:29
Speaker 1: information about this because if we talk about propaganda, we
49:33
Speaker 1: know how race played a a factor in the Nolan
49:37
Speaker 1: Wells case, right? And still is. So depending on where
49:42
Speaker 1: you're receiving your news, be wary of how they're also
49:46
Speaker 1: going to try to pin this.
49:47
Speaker 5: Within just the black community as well.
49:51
Speaker 1: Overall.
49:51
Speaker 2: And we'll never address any of those other issues.
49:54
Speaker 5: They won't address how fucked up the school is, how
49:56
Speaker 5: bad people are getting done on healthcare, how poorly the
50:00
Speaker 5: jobs are, people are not hiring.
50:02
Speaker 2: Lack of pay.
50:02
Speaker 5: They're not going to address any of those things. They're
50:04
Speaker 5: just going to say, niggers are savages killing each other.
50:06
Speaker 2: Look at them. Look at the monkeys.
50:08
Speaker 1: And I have a hot take.
50:09
Speaker 2: Okay.
50:10
Speaker 1: Never, never, never clean.
50:11
Speaker 2: Never clean.
50:12
Speaker 1: Never clean cut. Shut up.
50:15
Speaker 2: You got a little razor bump back there.
50:17
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what? This was my thought on this.
50:20
Speaker 1: And my friend Crystal disagreed. I tried to have her
50:24
Speaker 1: come pot today, but she, she didn't want to pot. But, but,
50:29
Speaker 1: I would implore, and yes, this is coming from a
50:31
Speaker 1: childish bitch, okay? Oh, boy. I do not have kids, however.
50:37
Speaker 1: I need there to be consequences. for the parents of
50:43
Speaker 1: kids behaving in this way.
50:44
Speaker 4: Slippery slope.
50:45
Speaker 2: I know. Slippery slope. I know.
50:46
Speaker 1: I get it. I get it.
50:48
Speaker 2: Well, not really, because... Like, you have to.
50:52
Speaker 1: If kids can go out here and just start shooting
50:55
Speaker 1: and killing, get away, spend two years in juvie and
50:58
Speaker 1: get out, especially if they're not tried as adults, right?
51:00
Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
51:01
Speaker 1: The adults then need to be responsible for the behavior
51:04
Speaker 1: of their kids. A gun being in a home.
51:06
Speaker 2: Well, hold on.
51:07
Speaker 1: Your child having access.
51:08
Speaker 2: They're sneaking. There's a lot of shit.
51:10
Speaker 1: Okay, but that's my problem.
51:12
Speaker 5: You know how much shit I got away with that
51:14
Speaker 5: my parents never know.
51:15
Speaker 2: Don't know about you. And you turned out fine. And
51:17
Speaker 2: he on CNN every weekend.
51:19
Speaker 1: You didn't commit a crime.
51:22
Speaker 2: No, no, no.
51:23
Speaker 1: And if you did, your parents.
51:24
Speaker 2: Shouldn't be in trouble for that. Well, I didn't commit
51:27
Speaker 2: any violent crimes.
51:29
Speaker 1: But, you know, there might have been a stealing.
51:32
Speaker 2: There might have been a.
51:34
Speaker 11: Allegedly.
51:35
Speaker 2: Allegedly. There might have been a scamming of.
51:38
Speaker 1: A statute of limitations.
51:39
Speaker 2: Yeah.
51:39
Speaker 8: But that goal, his home was protecting him from the
51:43
Speaker 8: worst outcomes.
51:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, that wasn't going to be in that situation.
51:46
Speaker 5: Now, the thing is, when we tell kids, hey, when
51:48
Speaker 5: we tell parents, yo, check your kid's book bag, right?
51:50
Speaker 8: Do all those things. You can do it to a point.
51:54
Speaker 8: And then once they leave the house, you're on your own.
51:58
Speaker 1: I need parents more responsible.
51:59
Speaker 2: Look, how many.
52:00
Speaker 8: Rappers that we've heard over the last couple years that
52:03
Speaker 8: have gotten incarcerated that come from good homes, that come from,
52:07
Speaker 8: you know, two-parent household, well-to-do, and they say they just
52:10
Speaker 8: wanted to do fuck shit.
52:11
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no. They should be held accountable.
52:13
Speaker 1: Here's my thing, right? Here's my thing. If there was
52:17
Speaker 1: consequences that parents knew they would face, if their kids
52:22
Speaker 1: behaved X way. There may be a way that... parents
52:26
Speaker 1: felt more responsibility to raise them right because now it
52:31
Speaker 1: does impact them. I think that there becomes a separation
52:35
Speaker 1: with the responsibility of a parent to be a parent
52:38
Speaker 1: and a kid being a kid. And if a kid
52:40
Speaker 1: is still being a kid or being led down the
52:41
Speaker 1: wrong way, you don't leave it up to the public
52:44
Speaker 1: schools to teach your kids. You don't leave it up
52:45
Speaker 1: to the community. You as a parent decided to have
52:48
Speaker 1: this fucking child. There needs to be a responsibility to
52:50
Speaker 1: you to ensure that your child is not becoming a
52:53
Speaker 1: menace to society.
52:55
Speaker 2: But there's no guarantee, though. There's not. So you're still
52:57
Speaker 2: going to be responsible for that?
52:58
Speaker 1: You got to be responsible for that motherfucker.
53:00
Speaker 5: And y'all mad at me when I promote No Nut November.
53:04
Speaker 1: And we are still going to say that a child
53:08
Speaker 1: is legacy.
53:09
Speaker 2: If your child.
53:15
Speaker 1: If your bloodline, if your lineage means so motherfucking much
53:20
Speaker 1: to you that you laid up and nutted in a
53:22
Speaker 1: bitch to make a goddamn kid that now you don't
53:25
Speaker 1: even want to raise, but this is your legacy, is
53:28
Speaker 1: the kid that you're leaving behind you have to somewhat
53:33
Speaker 1: have some bit of responsibility for how that child is
53:36
Speaker 1: now existing in society. And if you could not give
53:40
Speaker 1: a fuck less, y'all niggas got to stop out here
53:43
Speaker 1: talking about kids is my legacy.
53:45
Speaker 2: That's my lineage.
53:45
Speaker 1: That's my bloodline. I got to let my last name
53:48
Speaker 1: carry on.
53:49
Speaker 2: Okay.
53:50
Speaker 8: But them kids, when they get caught, I think what's
53:53
Speaker 8: going to happen is they're going to be tried as
53:55
Speaker 8: an adult.
53:56
Speaker 2: But you don't know. Yeah, they're going to be.
53:59
Speaker 1: If there was a 13-year-old, like, we don't know.
54:01
Speaker 5: Well, state by state, I don't know what New York
54:03
Speaker 5: State Law is.
54:04
Speaker 1: It's based on who pulled the trigger, who was a
54:08
Speaker 1: part of it. Like, there's a lot of logistics here.
54:09
Speaker 1: We don't know that they're going to be tried as adults. Regardless,
54:13
Speaker 1: if we identified children being below 18 years old, up
54:17
Speaker 1: until 17 years old, I would just want... parents to
54:23
Speaker 1: have more responsibility or more consequence to the behaviors of
54:26
Speaker 1: their children.
54:27
Speaker 2: Well, there's two parts to that. If the parents, if
54:30
Speaker 2: the behavior, like in this case, the shooting, right?
54:32
Speaker 5: If the gun that the kid got was got it
54:35
Speaker 5: from the home because, and it was found out after
54:38
Speaker 5: the investigation that the parent was not securing the firearm properly,
54:42
Speaker 5: then I'm with you. There has to be a responsibility
54:45
Speaker 5: for that. I don't know that I can just broadly
54:49
Speaker 5: say everything that a kid does is because the parent
54:52
Speaker 5: didn't check on them or wasn't diligent enough to check
54:55
Speaker 5: their kid wasn't going to go out and do some
54:57
Speaker 5: fuck shit because I.
54:58
Speaker 1: Think there's too many- And then not give a violent
55:07
Speaker 1: act like this being created in the household. Yeah, I mean,
55:10
Speaker 1: you can, though.
55:11
Speaker 2: It's not the same thing.
55:11
Speaker 1: There ain't no conversation around, hey, if you lose a fight,
55:14
Speaker 1: you lose a fight. Hey, if you lose a fight,
55:16
Speaker 1: you got to go kill that nigga now. Well, we
55:17
Speaker 1: don't know what's being said in the homes. And there's
55:19
Speaker 1: no way to really investigate that.
55:21
Speaker 5: How would you, like, there's no way to go back
55:23
Speaker 5: and find out how this house was set up.
55:25
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. That kid, when he get
55:28
Speaker 1: on stand, again, there could be questioning around that.
55:31
Speaker 8: I'll tell you, I won't go too crazy in the
55:33
Speaker 8: story because I want to. make something of this, a
55:35
Speaker 8: memoir or whatever.
55:36
Speaker 5: But I had an incident where I was a sophomore
55:38
Speaker 5: in high school.
55:39
Speaker 11: Okay.
55:39
Speaker 2: And I allegedly had access to something.
55:41
Speaker 4: You allegedly.
55:42
Speaker 8: And it was Halloween.
55:44
Speaker 2: Time, actually.
55:45
Speaker 8: And we got out a half a day early. And
55:48
Speaker 8: so to think, this is going to be ignorant. And
55:50
Speaker 8: this is why I say I don't know, because my
55:51
Speaker 8: parents had nothing to.
55:52
Speaker 2: Do with this shit. This is just me doing weird shit.
55:54
Speaker 2: What'd you do?
55:55
Speaker 8: So there was a time when you could buy like
55:57
Speaker 8: a half carton of eggs for like a dollar or
56:00
Speaker 8: whatever it was.
56:00
Speaker 2: We're back in a better time. When eggs weren't $ 17
56:02
Speaker 2: a piece. I used to live in a project, so....
56:06
Speaker 5: Where I used to live was in the middle of
56:07
Speaker 5: the projects, so we had the front and the back.
56:08
Speaker 5: They were always beefing with each other. But in this scenario,
56:11
Speaker 5: we was like, we're going to throw eggs at the
56:12
Speaker 5: people and the kids. Like, yo, we can just go
56:15
Speaker 5: in the area and just throw eggs. That was part
56:16
Speaker 5: of the Halloween shit. So I gave this kid a dollar.
56:20
Speaker 2: I said, yo, give me some eggs. He comes back.
56:22
Speaker 1: Wait, you got multiple eggs for one dollar?
56:24
Speaker 2: Damn, you old. It was a half.
56:26
Speaker 1: It was like 10 cents back then?
56:27
Speaker 2: It wasn't even that. Don't try to play. It was
56:29
Speaker 2: a different. I don't even know who. Everything was different.
56:32
Speaker 2: The fucking mayor. Shit was bad, but it wasn't like this.
56:36
Speaker 2: It wasn't like this.
56:37
Speaker 1: 25 cent burger?
56:38
Speaker 4: No.
56:38
Speaker 2: Man, this nigga is crazy. 39. I can't stand this.
56:43
Speaker 8: So they never gave me back my eggs. So they
56:47
Speaker 8: was goofing off and they was running around. I was
56:50
Speaker 8: chasing them and all this shit. And I was mad. Oh,
56:56
Speaker 8: and then they threw it at me.
56:57
Speaker 2: Okay. Right. I had a car heart jack. Whatever.
57:00
Speaker 8: I'm not going to do all that because, you know.
57:02
Speaker 8: So I go in the crib. My mom is in
57:04
Speaker 8: the kitchen cooking. I go allegedly somewhere. I'm not going
57:08
Speaker 8: to say how.
57:08
Speaker 1: You grab a weapon.
57:09
Speaker 2: Well, there was. And there's another backstory to that. Sure.
57:14
Speaker 2: It's a pretty cool story.
57:15
Speaker 8: But it also could have changed the trajectory of a
57:18
Speaker 8: lot of people's lives based on an emotion.
57:20
Speaker 2: Right.
57:21
Speaker 8: I felt humiliated because I'm like, how am I on
57:23
Speaker 8: people right from my neighborhood?
57:26
Speaker 2: And they was being goofy. So allegedly I might have,
57:28
Speaker 2: you know, saw something.
57:31
Speaker 1: You stabbed a nigga?
57:32
Speaker 2: No, I'm not. No, but here's the thing. Here's the thing.
57:36
Speaker 2: So I got tears. I'm angry. I come back outside.
57:39
Speaker 2: My mom has no knowledge of, my dad, no knowledge
57:42
Speaker 2: of anything. I go out. I'm like, I'm vexed.
57:46
Speaker 5: So I'm like, yeah, outside the building. One of my
57:51
Speaker 5: older brothers, one of his college friends, I seen him.
57:56
Speaker 5: And the timing was so perfect. He sees me, and
57:59
Speaker 5: the thing that he saw, it couldn't be tucked all
58:03
Speaker 5: the way in because it was a Carhartt jacket.
58:05
Speaker 8: Carhartt jackets have short pockets. He said, yo, what you
58:09
Speaker 8: doing with that? And then he looked around. He's like, yo,
58:12
Speaker 8: come in the building. And he said, let me see that.
58:14
Speaker 8: And he saw whatever it was.
58:16
Speaker 2: And what you going to do with that? Right.
58:19
Speaker 5: And then he said, yo, well, he said, we're going
58:22
Speaker 5: to use this. You can't wear the same clothes you
58:23
Speaker 5: went to school with.
58:25
Speaker 2: I'm about to say.
58:26
Speaker 5: Now he's teaching you how to do it.
58:29
Speaker 2: He kind of did.
58:30
Speaker 5: But then what happened was while we're having that conversation inside,
58:33
Speaker 5: the kids, they saw and they heard the energy.
58:37
Speaker 2: They come in. And it was like, oh, shit. You
58:41
Speaker 2: was going to. Let me see it? No, no. You
58:45
Speaker 2: know what I mean?
58:45
Speaker 8: But I say that to say, in hindsight, my parents
58:49
Speaker 8: did the right thing. And I was about to do
58:52
Speaker 8: the real fucked up thing. That could have caused a
58:55
Speaker 8: problem for them. Because we all in the survival community,
58:59
Speaker 8: no matter what the trajectory is, that could have changed everything.
59:04
Speaker 8: And the sad part about it is, is that sometimes
59:07
Speaker 8: when you, there's a clip, going around of a woman
59:10
Speaker 8: kind of talking about this. It's in relation to like
59:14
Speaker 8: luxury clothes and like how you dress if you don't
59:18
Speaker 8: have it, but presenting yourself in a certain kind of way.
59:21
Speaker 8: And her thing was, when you grow up somewhere where
59:25
Speaker 8: you don't got it and you're fucked up, The only
59:27
Speaker 8: thing that you might have that you can feel good
59:30
Speaker 8: about is your respect.
59:33
Speaker 2: And if someone.
59:34
Speaker 5: Tries to take that from you, that's the last thing
59:37
Speaker 5: that you feel like you have. And so now your
59:40
Speaker 5: mind state is like, no, fuck that shit. I'm going
59:43
Speaker 5: to go in my car heart jacket with this unnamed
59:46
Speaker 5: item and get my respect. I can't go buy nothing.
59:50
Speaker 5: I can't have no Gucci. I don't have no Benz.
59:52
Speaker 5: I don't have no nice house. But you can't talk
59:54
Speaker 5: to me any kind of way. You can't play me
59:56
Speaker 5: no kind of way. And that makes shit dangerous. And also,
59:59
Speaker 5: that would have broke my parents.
1:00:00
Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely. And that would have been the punishment. Absolutely. Again, hindsight.
1:00:06
Speaker 1: Hindsight is 20-20. But in the moment of emotion, in
1:00:10
Speaker 1: a world where, unfortunately, we don't teach, especially little boys,
1:00:15
Speaker 1: how to regulate their emotions.
1:00:16
Speaker 2: If you fight with somebody, it's okay to take an L.
1:00:18
Speaker 2: Because you're living to see another day. Yeah, they can't.
1:00:20
Speaker 2: They're not trying to... And not for nothing, that's not
1:00:22
Speaker 2: even a new thing. I mean.
1:00:26
Speaker 2: In Boys in the.
1:00:26
Speaker 5: Hood, Laurence Fishburne was trying to tell Trey that. And
1:00:30
Speaker 5: that movie came out 29 years ago.
1:00:33
Speaker 2: We got to do a rewatch. And he was trying
1:00:34
Speaker 2: to tell him that exact same thing. Laurence Fishburne, his
1:00:38
Speaker 2: messaging is very poignant to today.
1:00:40
Speaker 5: Furious Styles. Furious Styles was trying to tell Trey Just
1:00:44
Speaker 5: put him up and take your L. And Cuba Gooding's character,
1:00:48
Speaker 5: he was trying to get busy, but that wasn't him.
1:00:51
Speaker 2: That wasn't him. And he's about to fuck everything up.
1:00:53
Speaker 2: And Ice Cube and the niggas was ready to go
1:00:55
Speaker 2: do the thing.
1:00:56
Speaker 1: We should do that as a family. Classmates, we're going
1:00:58
Speaker 1: to watch Boys in the Hood.
1:00:59
Speaker 2: And recap it. And then we should follow up. We
1:01:02
Speaker 2: got Juice right after that. We don't have that. New
1:01:05
Speaker 2: Jack City.
1:01:06
Speaker 11: No, no, no.
1:01:06
Speaker 12: Oh, shit.
1:01:07
Speaker 2: New Jack City.
1:01:08
Speaker 1: Juice, we're not going to get into that.
1:01:09
Speaker 2: Juice is crazy. You ever saw Paid in Full?
1:01:11
Speaker 1: I just recently watched Juice again and it was terrible.
1:01:14
Speaker 2: Juice was crazy. Oh, no. Juice was terrible.
1:01:17
Speaker 1: That's the one with Tupac, right?
1:01:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:01:20
Speaker 5: Terrible.
1:01:20
Speaker 2: And Laurence Fishburne. And Laurence Fishburne.
1:01:23
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right.
1:01:24
Speaker 2: Laurence Fishburne gave money for a long time. You local.
1:01:27
Speaker 1: I said, what lens was niggas watching this make? It's
1:01:31
Speaker 1: such a cult classic. It was not good. It was
1:01:33
Speaker 1: not good.
1:01:34
Speaker 5: Well, it wasn't for the Oscar of it.
1:01:37
Speaker 2: It was more so the... It resonated. It resonated.
1:01:41
Speaker 5: That represented that time period.
1:01:44
Speaker 2: Very much so. Even the fits. The 40 belows. That
1:01:46
Speaker 2: was luxury street wear. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 40 belows and
1:01:50
Speaker 2: camo pants? Sure, guys.
1:01:51
Speaker 1: Yeah. All right, let's get into the next one. Y'all,
1:01:55
Speaker 1: 17 Disney World and Universal Studios employees are among 281
1:01:58
Speaker 1: arrested in a massive.
1:01:59
Speaker 2: Florida undercover operation targeting child predators.
1:02:09
Speaker 1: Prostitution, and sex trafficking. Y'all, the seven-day investigation conducted by
1:02:14
Speaker 1: the Polk County Sheriff's Office got all these motherfuckers, all right?
1:02:19
Speaker 1: According to Sheriff Grady Judd, 31 suspects allegedly attempted to
1:02:23
Speaker 1: arrange sexual encounters with minors, including seven individuals employed at
1:02:28
Speaker 1: local theme parks. This is sick. Investigators say the suspects
1:02:32
Speaker 1: communicated online with undercover detectives posing as children or their
1:02:37
Speaker 1: guardians before traveling to arranged meeting locations. One Disney employee
1:02:42
Speaker 1: allegedly arrived to meet someone he believed was a 13-year-old boy.
1:02:47
Speaker 1: Authorities reported that 239 arrests involved prostitution-related offenses as well.
1:02:55
Speaker 1: Disney reportedly cooperated with investigators and terminated the employees involved.
1:03:00
Speaker 1: Authorities emphasized that the investigation was intended to identify individuals
1:03:04
Speaker 1: seeking sexual contact with children.
1:03:06
Speaker 4: That's insane.
1:03:07
Speaker 1: Address prostitution-related offenses and help victims of human trafficking.
1:03:12
Speaker 2: Damn.
1:03:12
Speaker 1: The suspects have all been arrested. However, the allegations currently
1:03:17
Speaker 1: have not been proven in court. And this is where.
1:03:21
Speaker 2: A pedo Rico. Bro. Certified Mickey Mouse, certified pedophile.
1:03:26
Speaker 6: Like.
1:03:26
Speaker 2: Lock, lock, lock, lock, lock, lock, lock them up.
1:03:28
Speaker 1: Well, I also said Universal Studios.
1:03:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Universal Studios. So this is both... But so
1:03:31
Speaker 2: they just so happen.
1:03:33
Speaker 1: No, this was.
1:03:34
Speaker 2: It wasn't a sting. So guess what?
1:03:37
Speaker 5: It's more than that $ 281, 000 then, because all them people
1:03:39
Speaker 5: are going to snitch on the other people that has
1:03:41
Speaker 5: it in court.
1:03:41
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
1:03:43
Speaker 1: That's the thing. The fact that there's 281 arrested and
1:03:45
Speaker 1: only 17 were theme work employees, this is a whole
1:03:49
Speaker 1: orchestration of people helping each other meet little kids.
1:03:52
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Which is scary. There are.
1:03:55
Speaker 1: It's insane. It's disgusting. And fucking Florida.
1:03:59
Speaker 2: The desire... The desire.
1:04:00
Speaker 1: To be with kids.
1:04:02
Speaker 2: So we're in a spiritual war. I know we hear
1:04:04
Speaker 2: that a lot. But.
1:04:08
Speaker 2: Kids. Kids. Kids.
1:04:10
Speaker 5: So there's more details than even that that I read
1:04:13
Speaker 5: a different article that I was just like, God damn,
1:04:15
Speaker 5: you can't do nothing.
1:04:17
Speaker 7: No.
1:04:17
Speaker 5: So one of the suspects arrested is the head coach
1:04:20
Speaker 5: of a Florida team called the Davenport Titans where he
1:04:22
Speaker 5: coaches kids between the ages.
1:04:24
Speaker 2: Davenport Titans, I don't know if that's Davenport High School. Oh,
1:04:26
Speaker 2: so maybe like an intramural league.
1:04:28
Speaker 6: Maybe.
1:04:28
Speaker 5: He coaches kids between the ages of 11 and 14.
1:04:30
Speaker 5: He was arrested when he thought he was going to
1:04:32
Speaker 5: meet a 14-year-old girl. So you are a head coach
1:04:36
Speaker 5: of a kid's age, the same age as a girl
1:04:40
Speaker 5: that you were trying to go rape.
1:04:42
Speaker 1: And Davenport, for y'all that don't know, this is.
1:04:44
Speaker 2: Here we go with the AI shit again.
1:04:46
Speaker 1: Davenport is a city slash town... in between Tampa and Orlando.
1:04:52
Speaker 1: So this seems to have been spread then, if they're
1:04:55
Speaker 1: also at the theme parks, pretty much across Central Florida.
1:04:58
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is all across. This isn't a Disney sting.
1:05:01
Speaker 5: This is a sting just getting these motherfuckers out of here.
1:05:04
Speaker 2: They like kids. There's another kid.
1:05:06
Speaker 5: One of the Disney employees was a Mickey Mouse character.
1:05:09
Speaker 5: He dressed that he was a Mickey Mouse at Disney World.
1:05:13
Speaker 5: He had a diaper fetish. When he got arrested, he
1:05:16
Speaker 5: was arrested with backpacks full of diapers.
1:05:19
Speaker 1: And it's saying, too, guys, the Davenport youth football coach,
1:05:22
Speaker 1: when he got caught, he brought sex toys and Uber
1:05:26
Speaker 1: Eats bags to meet the minor.
1:05:29
Speaker 2: Yes.
1:05:30
Speaker 1: So, clearly, there was a lot of undercover detectives within
1:05:33
Speaker 1: this thing. It did take seven days just to catch
1:05:36
Speaker 1: this many people.
1:05:36
Speaker 2: Hold on, girl, scroll up again.
1:05:37
Speaker 1: I'm sure this was, you know, being.
1:05:39
Speaker 2: And it had some niggas in there. Mm-hmm. Oh, he
1:05:42
Speaker 2: was the nigga. Oh, wow. Yep. Wow.
1:05:46
Speaker 4: Oh, man.
1:05:47
Speaker 5: I mean.
1:05:48
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah. I know, but.
1:05:50
Speaker 1: When it comes to men and their sexual deviances, color
1:05:54
Speaker 1: is not.
1:05:55
Speaker 2: Really a conversation. It doesn't matter. Especially when we.
1:05:57
Speaker 1: Come into conversations around pedophilia.
1:05:59
Speaker 4: Right.
1:05:59
Speaker 1: Unfortunately.
1:06:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is gonna be... This is crazy.
1:06:02
Speaker 1: This is nasty.
1:06:03
Speaker 5: 32 of the 281 were undocumented immigrants, so 16 of
1:06:08
Speaker 5: them have already been turned into ICE.
1:06:10
Speaker 2: Here we go.
1:06:11
Speaker 5: Fuck ICE, but do get them niggas out of here.
1:06:13
Speaker 5: 24 of the suspects.
1:06:17
Speaker 5: Brought firearms to the meetings with the alleged young children.
1:06:22
Speaker 2: So who knows how far that would have gone for.
1:06:26
Speaker 1: Well, I think that that's why they added the human
1:06:28
Speaker 1: trafficking element of it. These were criminals setting up to possibly,
1:06:35
Speaker 1: you know, get these kids somewhere.
1:06:36
Speaker 5: Abduct them, kidnap them. Who knows how far that would
1:06:38
Speaker 5: have gone if these people hadn't got arrested.
1:06:40
Speaker 1: I'm not going to lie. Whoever blew the whistle on
1:06:42
Speaker 1: this one, blow the whistle.
1:06:43
Speaker 2: Shout out to Polk County. You see the tagline? Poke
1:06:47
Speaker 2: around and find out? I like that. Oh, shit.
1:06:52
Speaker 1: So Polk County has one of the best anthems to
1:06:54
Speaker 1: me in Florida, Argue With Your Mother. And they used
1:06:58
Speaker 1: to interchange the different counties. So Polk County has a song,
1:07:03
Speaker 1: or a group from Polk County made a song called Paralyze.
1:07:06
Speaker 4: Okay.
1:07:07
Speaker 1: And it went, Paralyze, paralyze, paralyze, paralyze. So fucked up,
1:07:12
Speaker 1: can't open my eyes.
1:07:14
Speaker 2: Oh, shit.
1:07:15
Speaker 1: And it's like, Bokey, you know we stay bout it.
1:07:17
Speaker 1: We in the club screaming out, Polk County. And then,
1:07:20
Speaker 1: if you was in Orange, you turn away to Polk.
1:07:22
Speaker 4: Orange County.
1:07:23
Speaker 2: Orange County.
1:07:23
Speaker 1: Right, right, right, right. But that was like, that motherfucking song.
1:07:26
Speaker 2: It's on DSPs?
1:07:27
Speaker 1: The fuck?
1:07:28
Speaker 4: Paralyzed.
1:07:29
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's on the DSPs.
1:07:30
Speaker 1: I know it's probably on the YouTube.
1:07:32
Speaker 5: You know I'm going to try to find the instrumental
1:07:35
Speaker 5: track and put it underneath her saying.
1:07:38
Speaker 2: Paralyzed or paralyzed, you think?
1:07:42
Speaker 1: Paralyzed Realize or some shit like that I'm trying to

1:07:51
Speaker 2: Oh, Paralyzed. Yeah, OK, boys.
1:07:53
Speaker 1: Let's see if we can play a little bit of
1:07:55
Speaker 1: that thing.
1:07:56
Speaker 2: Just play the little beat. Hello.

Speaker 9: Hey.

Speaker 2: Big Fruity Boots.

Speaker 1: We probably won't get a show because I don't think
1:08:05
Speaker 1: this is on the DSP.
1:08:06
Speaker 2: It actually is.
1:08:07
Speaker 1: It is on the DSP?
1:08:07
Speaker 2: It actually is.
1:08:09
Speaker 1: OK, well, we'll stop it there. Look that up. And
1:08:13
Speaker 1: it just gets you going. They got a song called
1:08:14
Speaker 1: From the Haines City, Florida. Haines City is right next
1:08:20
Speaker 1: to Davenport.
1:08:20
Speaker 2: It's literally Haines City.
1:08:23
Speaker 1: So Polk County is in between Orange and whatever county
1:08:26
Speaker 1: Tampa is.
1:08:27
Speaker 11: Oh, okay.
1:08:28
Speaker 1: This is all what you would drive through on I-4
1:08:31
Speaker 1: to get to that side.
1:08:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, these are some real Florida niggas.
1:08:33
Speaker 11: Hello.
1:08:34
Speaker 5: From the Haines City, Florida. Them niggas not playing no games. Hello.
1:08:40
Speaker 1: Last topic, and this is America before we get to
1:08:42
Speaker 1: Celebrity Say the Darnest Things. Donald Trump says, if you're
1:08:45
Speaker 1: black or Jewish and vote for Abdul Saeed, then you
1:08:48
Speaker 1: are crazy.
1:08:49
Speaker 4: You're crazy.
1:08:50
Speaker 1: You're just crazy. Let's go ahead and play that clip.
1:08:53
Speaker 2: He's crazy anyway.
1:08:54
Speaker 1: If you're black or if you're Jewish and if you
1:08:59
Speaker 1: vote for Abdul, you're crazy.
1:09:02
Speaker 2: Okay? You're crazy. The white people might be more crazy anyway.
1:09:09
Speaker 2: But if you're black, and they have a guy running
1:09:11
Speaker 2: now who's definitely Muslim Brotherhood. Just saying anything. Like, Well,
1:09:20
Speaker 2: he did, by the way, he.
1:09:23
Speaker 1: Would have said, Jewish and black people, y'all crazy anyway.
1:09:27
Speaker 2: Yeah.
1:09:27
Speaker 1: But if you really vote for this Muslim.
1:09:29
Speaker 2: You really crazy. You really, really crazy.
1:09:31
Speaker 1: I'm not going to lie. At this point, the aliens
1:09:34
Speaker 1: are laughing at us so hard. Along with the rest
1:09:38
Speaker 1: of the world.
1:09:38
Speaker 2: Let's be very clear.
1:09:40
Speaker 1: When I was like traveling abroad, when I studied abroad,
1:09:44
Speaker 1: when he was going for his first term. 2016.
1:09:46
Speaker 2: 2016.
1:09:47
Speaker 10: 2016.
1:09:47
Speaker 1: That's when I lived in Singapore, 2015 to 2016. The
1:09:51
Speaker 1: conversations with people from all over the world with the
1:09:54
Speaker 1: fact that he could even run made us as a
1:09:58
Speaker 1: country a laughing stock. And these clips, again, going across
1:10:04
Speaker 1: all the social media platforms and all over the world
1:10:08
Speaker 1: is making this country a laughing stock. We all look
1:10:13
Speaker 1: crazy for living here. We all look crazy for allowing
1:10:17
Speaker 1: him a second term in office. And so, baby, can
1:10:23
Speaker 1: we look to the rights of the world like we
1:10:24
Speaker 1: got some goddamn motherfucking sense?
1:10:26
Speaker 2: Well, I think that partially.
1:10:29
Speaker 5: The thing is, I'm not voting because my vote don't count, niggas.
1:10:34
Speaker 2: It's that too. Well, that's why we all look, the
1:10:36
Speaker 2: shit splashes back on all of us, right? It does.
1:10:38
Speaker 5: People overseas, they're not going to try to disseminate who's
1:10:41
Speaker 5: MAGA and who's not.
1:10:42
Speaker 2: They're just going to look at it and be like,
1:10:43
Speaker 2: you Americans are fucking stupid. No, Yankees. That's another thing too.
1:10:47
Speaker 2: International calls us Yankees, by the way.
1:10:49
Speaker 5: I know we were talking about the whole thing.
1:10:51
Speaker 2: Yes. Yankees?
1:10:53
Speaker 1: Jamaicans call Yankees like New Yorkers.
1:10:55
Speaker 2: Caribbean people call New Yorkers Yankees.
1:10:58
Speaker 8: No, Caribbean people call Americans Yankees.
1:11:01
Speaker 2: Yankee boy.
1:11:03
Speaker 5: Well, they might have more of a context for what
1:11:07
Speaker 5: that means, but I don't think niggas in Spain even
1:11:09
Speaker 5: know what Yankees are.
1:11:10
Speaker 2: Like, that doesn't mean nothing to them.
1:11:11
Speaker 1: Oh, it's pure American. It's just American.
1:11:14
Speaker 3: Right.
1:11:14
Speaker 1: Like, and we look, like, when I go overseas, bitch,
1:11:17
Speaker 1: I ain't even got to talk.
1:11:19
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, they know.
1:11:19
Speaker 1: This bitch is an American. Whether it's by how you dress. Like,
1:11:23
Speaker 1: when you go overseas, as an American, you stand the
1:11:26
Speaker 1: fuck out. You know how these crackers on here acting
1:11:29
Speaker 1: like Muslims are just all look the same? No, when
1:11:32
Speaker 1: we go overseas, maybe we have Americans cinch on us.
1:11:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, no. Real bad. And you feel it.
1:11:38
Speaker 5: You feel yourself being looked at, and they're like, oh, shit, wait,
1:11:42
Speaker 5: let me just see.
1:11:42
Speaker 1: Oh, and then add the black element to it.
1:11:44
Speaker 2: Oh, boy.
1:11:45
Speaker 1: But if you, yeah, you get seen. And you know what?
1:11:48
Speaker 1: I would actually... More white people should travel. And I wonder, actually,
1:11:51
Speaker 1: we should talk. I wonder if they feel like how
1:11:54
Speaker 1: we feel here overseas, like as white people, because Americans
1:11:58
Speaker 1: don't have good, like we're not seen as good people
1:12:01
Speaker 1: over there.
1:12:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I think they're generally annoyed.
1:12:03
Speaker 1: They think we're obnoxious, we're pretentious, we're... were loud. Dirty.
1:12:08
Speaker 2: Disrespectful. Disrespectful.
1:12:10
Speaker 1: They view Americans very, very low in a lot of
1:12:13
Speaker 1: other countries.
1:12:13
Speaker 2: Unless they want you to come to America.
1:12:14
Speaker 1: Unless they want your money. Unless you go into a
1:12:16
Speaker 1: place and they need you.
1:12:17
Speaker 2: Right.
1:12:17
Speaker 1: But a lot of places that are well-off or, you know,
1:12:20
Speaker 1: just well-developed, they look at Americans like fucking jokes.
1:12:24
Speaker 2: In Caribbean, they call it brought-up-sy, right?
1:12:26
Speaker 5: Yeah.
1:12:27
Speaker 2: They have none. They have none.
1:12:28
Speaker 5: They feel like Americans have no brought up seat. They
1:12:30
Speaker 5: feel like Americans... Western society is this wild place where
1:12:34
Speaker 5: there's no rules. There's no standard conventions. It's just do
1:12:38
Speaker 5: whatever you want to. Say whatever you want to. Fuck everybody.
1:12:41
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. Okay, I'm fine with that part.
1:12:45
Speaker 3: I'm fine.
1:12:45
Speaker 2: Fuck everybody. Fuck everybody. I'm with that part.
1:12:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is crazy. Donald Trump is crazy.
1:12:51
Speaker 2: Here we are. I mean, but all of this shit is...
1:12:53
Speaker 2: All of this stuff is....
1:12:56
Speaker 5: Like they try to get, we talked about earlier this
1:13:00
Speaker 5: shit with Haley Stevens and that whole thing. And they
1:13:02
Speaker 5: try to run up on Abdul and ask him about
1:13:04
Speaker 5: how he feels about it. And his thing was like,
1:13:05
Speaker 5: none of that shit even fucking matters. What matters is
1:13:09
Speaker 5: I'm trying to do this job for these families and
1:13:11
Speaker 5: people are worried about drama, political drama and all the
1:13:15
Speaker 5: infighting and all the dumb shit that doesn't matter when
1:13:18
Speaker 5: people are going to the polls to vote. They're not
1:13:20
Speaker 5: thinking about what politician is beefing with.
1:13:22
Speaker 2: Another politician.
1:13:23
Speaker 5: They're thinking about how are we going to get someone
1:13:26
Speaker 5: in office who's going to do.
1:13:27
Speaker 2: Some shit for us. Who's going to help us.
1:13:28
Speaker 5: So all of this shit Trump is saying is just distraction.
1:13:31
Speaker 2: But to the point of the earlier clips, he knows
1:13:34
Speaker 2: that his people don't care about policy.
1:13:36
Speaker 1: They don't.
1:13:36
Speaker 2: They just want to hear the fuck shit. They want
1:13:38
Speaker 2: to hear the poison. They just want the orange Cheeto. Yeah,
1:13:40
Speaker 2: they want the hatred and all that shit.
1:13:41
Speaker 1: They want just white people to continue reigning in office.
1:13:46
Speaker 11: Right.
1:13:46
Speaker 2: In whatever office. Whatever office it is. In whatever it takes. Control. Yeah, control.
1:13:50
Speaker 2: That's all it comes down to. It's crazy. All right, y'all.
1:13:52
Speaker 1: I'm about to wrap this thing up. Celebrities say the
1:13:54
Speaker 1: darndest things. Streamer India Love says that she doesn't celebrate
1:14:00
Speaker 1: Halloween due to religious beliefs. And I want to lean
1:14:02
Speaker 1: into this because y'all know I love shit on religion.
1:14:06
Speaker 1: Not really, guys. Just wanted to say that. But I
1:14:08
Speaker 1: love bringing up the hypocrisy of how we choose to
1:14:13
Speaker 1: exist within our belief system, right? So if you could
1:14:15
Speaker 1: play this clip.
1:14:18
Speaker 12: Not be participating in Halloween this year or any year.
1:14:23
Speaker 12: My mom never allowed it. And even though I do
1:14:26
Speaker 12: like the concept of dressing up and becoming characters, my
1:14:32
Speaker 12: mom says it's a no.
1:14:34
Speaker 1: So it's a no.
1:14:36
Speaker 12: So maybe like after Halloween or something or maybe not.
1:14:39
Speaker 12: But Halloween is the devil's holiday is what my mom says.
1:14:44
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
1:14:46
Speaker 12: It's the devil's holiday, so therefore we are not participating
1:14:51
Speaker 12: on my end.
1:14:54
Speaker 5: I don't know her ethnicity, but I feel like a
1:14:55
Speaker 5: lot of immigrant family parents feel like that's a pervasive thing.
1:15:01
Speaker 5: Because my girl's mom, they didn't do any of that
1:15:03
Speaker 5: shit either. I totally get it. Hagan holiday, don't fuck around.
1:15:08
Speaker 2: It's Celtic culture. What would it have to be for
1:15:10
Speaker 2: somebody who's in Yoruba? There's no.
1:15:13
Speaker 5: And I don't know where her people are from or
1:15:14
Speaker 5: what her background is.
1:15:16
Speaker 8: I don't know if she's just biracial or what it is.
1:15:17
Speaker 8: But we talk about foundation in the home, right? Even
1:15:19
Speaker 8: if that's her home politic, that's something that carried her.
1:15:22
Speaker 2: Through as an adult. And she's a grown-ass adult.
1:15:24
Speaker 11: Right.
1:15:24
Speaker 1: And she still respects that concept. So the criticism that
1:15:29
Speaker 1: she's facing is that, and this comes from one person
1:15:35
Speaker 1: on Twitter, this is the biggest problem with religion. She's
1:15:38
Speaker 1: a literal sex worker. has had premarital sex, drinks, smokes,
1:15:42
Speaker 1: got tattoos, et cetera. But Halloween is where she draws
1:15:46
Speaker 1: the line for her relationship with God.
1:15:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, that's fine.
1:15:49
Speaker 1: Is it?
1:15:50
Speaker 2: Yes. Yeah. We experience a human evolution. We change.
1:15:55
Speaker 8: We change like the weather, the ebbs and flows of
1:15:58
Speaker 8: evolving as this human being that we are. And that
1:16:02
Speaker 8: happens through our journey, who we interact with, what things
1:16:05
Speaker 8: we adapt to.
1:16:06
Speaker 5: So maybe this is where she's at today. And maybe
1:16:09
Speaker 5: she's not having premarital sex. Why does what you do.
1:16:13
Speaker 4: No, she is.
1:16:13
Speaker 2: But who.
1:16:18
Speaker 1: She's not married and she's had sex.
1:16:19
Speaker 2: I'm giving her grace.
1:16:21
Speaker 5: Maybe she's not having sex today.
1:16:23
Speaker 2: Maybe she's... Well, duh. We don't know that. That's my
1:16:25
Speaker 2: whole point.
1:16:26
Speaker 1: She's had premarital sex.
1:16:26
Speaker 5: So we just gonna throw her under the bus because
1:16:28
Speaker 5: she drooled a lot on Halloween.
1:16:29
Speaker 1: This is why the fuck when anybody brings up religion
1:16:33
Speaker 1: as a premise and you've done the other sins, babe,
1:16:36
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear you.
1:16:38
Speaker 2: But here's the thing.
1:16:39
Speaker 1: Because you don't get to pick and choose which sins
1:16:41
Speaker 1: are below or above the next.
1:16:43
Speaker 2: But you can't repent.
1:16:45
Speaker 5: You can have atonement. But that applies to him. That
1:16:47
Speaker 5: logic applies to him, too. Like, here's what I tell
1:16:50
Speaker 5: people all the time, right?
1:16:51
Speaker 1: That logic applies to who?
1:16:52
Speaker 2: The guy doing his criticism. Like, the picking and choosing
1:16:55
Speaker 2: of what sins. Nigga, you're not God.
1:16:58
Speaker 5: And what a lot of people who think that they're
1:17:00
Speaker 5: so holy or think that they got whatever, a lot
1:17:02
Speaker 5: of niggas are going to die and go to either
1:17:05
Speaker 5: place and be shocked by who's with them. You're going
1:17:08
Speaker 5: to get to heaven and be like, how the fuck
1:17:10
Speaker 5: did she get here? How the fuck did he get here? Yeah, nigga,
1:17:12
Speaker 5: I'm here, too, because God loves me, too. And I
1:17:15
Speaker 5: did my part, and I'm not being.
1:17:16
Speaker 2: Judged by that.
1:17:17
Speaker 4: Huh?
1:17:18
Speaker 5: No. Some people are going to get to hell and
1:17:20
Speaker 5: be shocked at who's in hell with them.
1:17:22
Speaker 2: Oh, I thought you was. How come we?
1:17:24
Speaker 5: Yeah, nigga, because that person wasn't who you thought they were.
1:17:27
Speaker 2: If I go to heaven, I see niggas that's not
1:17:29
Speaker 2: supposed to be up there. I'm like, send me back
1:17:31
Speaker 2: to earth. Send me back to earth for another shot.
1:17:32
Speaker 2: You're going to be shocked.
1:17:34
Speaker 4: All right.
1:17:35
Speaker 1: You going to question God?
1:17:36
Speaker 2: What's a nigga who was on the phone? But that's
1:17:37
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. I'm not going to question him. You
1:17:38
Speaker 2: don't get to pick. These are just what you think
1:17:43
Speaker 2: here on earth. You're going to get up there and
1:17:44
Speaker 2: be like, oh shit.
1:17:46
Speaker 8: Thou shall not judge. Because we don't know how... You
1:17:49
Speaker 8: don't know how it's going to shake. We don't know
1:17:50
Speaker 8: how the universe is feeling under this.
1:17:51
Speaker 5: So that's why when niggas start talking like this, I'm like, nigga,
1:17:54
Speaker 5: this shit applies to you too. Everybody's a sinner, which
1:17:56
Speaker 5: is also what, if you're into religion, not really my
1:17:59
Speaker 5: bag that heavy, but they tell you everyone is a sinner.
1:18:03
Speaker 2: No one's going to be above that sin. So it's like.
1:18:06
Speaker 5: Shout out to Kendrick. I am a sinner. Probably going
1:18:09
Speaker 5: to sin again.
1:18:11
Speaker 1: See, that's where he lied. He lied.
1:18:13
Speaker 2: Probably going to sin again. No, because he understands.
1:18:16
Speaker 1: He should have just said, and.
1:18:18
Speaker 2: Will sin again. Now semantics.
1:18:21
Speaker 1: Now semantics.
1:18:23
Speaker 2: Bitch don't kill my vibe.
1:18:25
Speaker 5: Some niggas are going to go to hell. Some niggas
1:18:27
Speaker 5: are going to go to heaven. And we ain't going
1:18:28
Speaker 5: to know who's who until you die. So you want
1:18:31
Speaker 5: to find out so bad, nigga.
1:18:32
Speaker 1: I think my thing is when you start to lean into...
1:18:35
Speaker 1: God wouldn't like this.
1:18:37
Speaker 2: We don't know.
1:18:37
Speaker 1: A lot of other things that God wouldn't like either.
1:18:39
Speaker 2: Like, just do whatever.
1:18:42
Speaker 1: Just do it.
1:18:43
Speaker 2: But you can't just do whatever. Just do it like Nike. Okay?
1:18:47
Speaker 5: Everybody just run amok. I'm going to just kill niggas
1:18:49
Speaker 5: and rape them. people and go to heaven.
1:18:51
Speaker 1: I did not say that.
1:18:52
Speaker 2: You said do whatever. I'm saying, like, no, you don't
1:18:55
Speaker 2: do whatever.
1:18:56
Speaker 5: You choose how you're going to comport yourself on this earth.
1:19:00
Speaker 5: And if you are religious, you ask for repentance and
1:19:05
Speaker 5: you hope That it works out.
1:19:07
Speaker 4: Right.
1:19:07
Speaker 5: Now, if it don't, you know why. You shouldn't be shocked. Now,
1:19:11
Speaker 5: that's what I would have a problem with.
1:19:12
Speaker 2: Don't be shocked. I don't want to hear you in
1:19:14
Speaker 2: hell complaining. Nigga, you know. You know why you're here. Like,
1:19:19
Speaker 2: don't trip.
1:19:20
Speaker 5: But, again, like, it's going to be some people who
1:19:23
Speaker 5: we think are terrible people here on Earth who we're
1:19:27
Speaker 5: going to check out.
1:19:28
Speaker 2: And if we happen to get into.
1:19:29
Speaker 5: Heaven, we're going to look around and be like, damn,
1:19:32
Speaker 5: how the fuck some of.
1:19:33
Speaker 2: Y'all get here?
1:19:35
Speaker 1: What's one thing you want heaven to have?
1:19:38
Speaker 2: What is one thing I want heaven to have?
1:19:42
Speaker 1: Do you think it will have everything?
1:19:44
Speaker 2: Maybe not the same things that we think is luxury here. Yeah,
1:19:47
Speaker 2: I think that... Have you ever thought about that?
1:19:50
Speaker 1: You think I'm going to hate heaven?
1:19:54
Speaker 2: Why?
1:19:57
Speaker 1: As long as they have omakase, as long as I
1:19:59
Speaker 1: can have sushi in heaven, I'm cool.
1:20:02
Speaker 2: Man, you're going to have a white head wrap. She's
1:20:05
Speaker 2: going to be going back.
1:20:06
Speaker 1: That's all I want. I want a live band and
1:20:13
Speaker 1: omakase in heaven.
1:20:15
Speaker 5: Yo, everybody in heaven going, send me back to earth,
1:20:18
Speaker 5: send me back to earth.
1:20:18
Speaker 2: No, no, no.
1:20:19
Speaker 1: That is like my only problem with the Blue Note
1:20:21
Speaker 1: and places with live bands is that the food just
1:20:23
Speaker 1: kind of don't get it.
1:20:24
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
1:20:25
Speaker 2: That's like the secondary.
1:20:25
Speaker 5: On the list.
1:20:26
Speaker 1: I want an omakase with a live band. That's heaven
1:20:31
Speaker 1: for me.
1:20:32
Speaker 2: I think heaven is going to be... I think heaven
1:20:35
Speaker 2: is just going to be a feeling. I don't think
1:20:37
Speaker 2: you're going to have anything.
1:20:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, no pod mics in heaven.
1:20:40
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, there'll definitely be no pod mics.
1:20:42
Speaker 5: Honestly, I don't even know if you'll be able to
1:20:44
Speaker 5: talk in heaven. I feel like when you go to heaven,
1:20:46
Speaker 5: you're just going to be in joy.
1:20:49
Speaker 2: You're just going to feel good.
1:20:51
Speaker 5: And you're not going to know, you're not going to
1:20:52
Speaker 5: want for nothing because you're not going to know what
1:20:53
Speaker 5: to want.
1:20:54
Speaker 2: You're just going to be like, ah, I'm just happy
1:20:56
Speaker 2: to be here. Smile on your face. No pain.
1:21:01
Speaker 1: No pain.

Speaker 5: it was Kirk's show.
1:23:43
Speaker 1: Oh, they just put a whole bunch of black people
1:23:44
Speaker 1: on a table and talked.
1:23:45
Speaker 2: Men.
1:23:46
Speaker 1: Men, though, specifically.
1:23:48
Speaker 2: I thought it stopped. I think it was King's Court
1:23:50
Speaker 2: or something like that. King's Court, something like that.
1:23:52
Speaker 1: Well, y'all, they sat down and had a discussion. After
1:23:57
Speaker 1: 2 Chainz brought up the negative review that Keith gave
1:24:01
Speaker 1: his restaurant. Keith argued that his reviews are based on
1:24:04
Speaker 1: how everyday customers are treated. While 2 Chainz insisted that
1:24:08
Speaker 1: celebrities have earned certain privileges. Let's listen to the clip.
1:24:13
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
1:24:14
Speaker 9: As far as like what you do, it's your thing.
1:24:16
Speaker 9: It's like today is the day where you can actually
1:24:20
Speaker 9: create who you are. Create a job, create revenue, create
1:24:23
Speaker 9: ways to take care of your family. So I can
1:24:25
Speaker 9: never take that away. Obviously, you've been to a couple
1:24:28
Speaker 9: of my restaurants. Whether the response was good or bad.
1:24:33
Speaker 4: Which restaurants? It don't matter. Okay, I understand.
1:24:38
Speaker 9: Esco down the street. Esco is down the street on Candyland.
1:24:42
Speaker 4: Ain't that right, Kirk?
1:24:44
Speaker 2: I think so.
1:24:45
Speaker 9: I have a vegan pizza spot.
1:24:50
Speaker 2: Right, Kurt.
1:24:51
Speaker 9: More than I would know called Endura. But anyway, I
1:24:54
Speaker 9: saw you do my restaurant. I saw you do other
1:24:55
Speaker 9: people's restaurants. And I really can't judge it because it's
1:25:02
Speaker 9: your opinion.
1:25:03
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying? It's not. It's like your
1:25:04
Speaker 4: taste buds. It's your opinion. It's probably with that.
1:25:08
Speaker 2: Yeah. You know what I'm saying?
1:25:08
Speaker 4: And then like.
1:25:10
Speaker 9: Whatever people are engaged in, that's them. Now we got,
1:25:13
Speaker 9: you know, streaming is the biggest, like, I don't know
1:25:15
Speaker 9: if you're still doing the food reviews or whatnot, but
1:25:18
Speaker 9: I know streaming is just as big as what that
1:25:20
Speaker 9: was back then. So to live in a time where people,
1:25:23
Speaker 9: it's just really opinion-based and people do get obvious attitudes
1:25:28
Speaker 9: because it's like, Atlanta is the city, it's really Wakanda, bro.
1:25:32
Speaker 9: You really, being from Detroit, which is another place City
1:25:34
Speaker 9: that I consider black, D.C. But Atlanta's like the mecca,
1:25:39
Speaker 9: like people coming together, like real, like you'll meet somebody
1:25:43
Speaker 9: like theirs and y'all will open up a business. And
1:25:46
Speaker 9: in three months, it may do well or it may
1:25:48
Speaker 9: not do well. So just like consciously knowing that you
1:25:51
Speaker 9: were in an area where people are.
1:25:54
Speaker 4: Are trying like no one else.
1:25:55
Speaker 9: And I explain this when I go to Miami, when
1:25:57
Speaker 9: I'm in New York, like when we do these type of,
1:26:00
Speaker 9: if we was in New York doing this facility, we
1:26:02
Speaker 9: can already know that a black person ain't got.
1:26:04
Speaker 4: Nothing to do with it. If we was in LA, no.
1:26:07
Speaker 9: No black person own a building in LA, a black
1:26:09
Speaker 9: person don't own no commercial property, no. But down here,
1:26:14
Speaker 9: I'm telling you, I got three, four properties downtown, three, four,
1:26:17
Speaker 9: you know.
1:26:17
Speaker 4: What I mean?
1:26:18
Speaker 9: A nigga come down here in front of you, eat
1:26:19
Speaker 9: some shit. Man, oh my God, this stuff is just
1:26:22
Speaker 9: seasoning that's just not, you know what I'm saying?
1:26:24
Speaker 2: Niggas are like, who is buddy? You know what I'm saying?
1:26:27
Speaker 4: I'm like, nigga, let me sit on that.
1:26:28
Speaker 2: Let me sit off your chest.
1:26:30
Speaker 4: It's not bothering me. No, it's not. I'm here for that.
1:26:33
Speaker 4: I swear I'm not. I'm irritated with that.
1:26:36
Speaker 11: No, no, no, I'm here for that. So I'm very pro-black.
1:26:38
Speaker 11: I believe in advancement of black and brown people. So
1:26:40
Speaker 11: when it comes from the conversation of customer service or
1:26:43
Speaker 11: when it comes from the conversation of food, not only
1:26:45
Speaker 11: do I come from a place of being a professional
1:26:47
Speaker 11: athlete and the only way that I was able to
1:26:49
Speaker 11: cut as much weight or be a professional to the
1:26:52
Speaker 11: level I was, was how I focused on food. So
1:26:55
Speaker 11: I was around food dieticians and food scientists for years, right?
1:26:58
Speaker 6: For sure.
1:26:58
Speaker 11: But I never come from the perspective of an expert
1:27:01
Speaker 11: or the perspective of a chef. I come from a
1:27:03
Speaker 11: perspective of somebody who is a consumer of Black community,
1:27:06
Speaker 11: as a part of Black community, and somebody who want
1:27:09
Speaker 11: the advancement of the Black community. So my opinion has
1:27:12
Speaker 11: always been from that standpoint. It ain't been from, oh,
1:27:14
Speaker 11: the food got to be amazing. They got to be this, that,
1:27:16
Speaker 11: and the third. But if I go in and we
1:27:19
Speaker 11: all know at this table, if you Mojo Brooks, you
1:27:21
Speaker 11: 2 Chainz, you Desi Banks, you Kirk, if you go in,
1:27:24
Speaker 11: you're going to get a completely different experience than if
1:27:26
Speaker 11: my mama go in or my wife go in or
1:27:28
Speaker 11: if anybody in the crowd go in because they not
1:27:30
Speaker 11: who other people think they are, right? So I feel
1:27:34
Speaker 11: like from here specifically, The experience was completely different once
1:27:38
Speaker 11: my face was shown. I sent my mom-in-law into 10
1:27:41
Speaker 11: different restaurants. She couldn't eat nowhere. She couldn't get no food.
1:27:44
Speaker 11: She couldn't get no service. She couldn't get no experience
1:27:46
Speaker 11: at all. I go in table ready right now. So
1:27:49
Speaker 11: I think it's... More or less from the people who
1:27:52
Speaker 11: watch us, I'm blessed enough to have people who are
1:27:53
Speaker 11: going to jump on a plane. I'm blessed enough to
1:27:55
Speaker 11: have people that's going to come from a different country
1:27:57
Speaker 11: and say, I want to try this food. I'm blessed
1:27:58
Speaker 11: enough to have people that's going to stand in hours
1:28:01
Speaker 11: long line around the corner. We just threw our very
1:28:03
Speaker 11: first festival in New Orleans and over 20,000 people showed up.
1:28:05
Speaker 4: So I take that serious.
1:28:07
Speaker 11: And I don't ever want to put anybody in a
1:28:09
Speaker 11: situation that they get a different experience only because they
1:28:12
Speaker 11: not Keith Lee. So it's like, if honesty come with
1:28:15
Speaker 11: that and me saying this is how our experience was,
1:28:18
Speaker 11: if I got to get the backlash.
1:28:19
Speaker 4: For that, I'm okay with that. All right. So two
1:28:21
Speaker 4: things that I got off of that.
1:28:23
Speaker 9: Two is I'm an entertainer and obviously we get perks
1:28:27
Speaker 9: that other people don't get. That's just, that's just, that's
1:28:29
Speaker 9: not even Atlanta. That's just period, my boy. I don't stand,
1:28:32
Speaker 9: I go, I got a greeter. I don't stand in
1:28:34
Speaker 9: line at the airport. I don't do none of that
1:28:35
Speaker 9: because I don't work my ass off to do this here, bro.
1:28:38
Speaker 9: So to say like, I'm supposed to, wait 40 minutes.
1:28:41
Speaker 4: That's bullshit. I don't give a damn.
1:28:43
Speaker 9: In Beverly Hills, they going to still make sure I'm straight.
1:28:46
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying? What happens if I go away?
1:28:48
Speaker 9: It ain't going to happen. It's been here before us, bro.
1:28:50
Speaker 9: It's been here way before us. It's been here before us, bro.
1:28:52
Speaker 4: It's been here before. You can be a wrestler. Nigga,
1:28:55
Speaker 4: Ric Flair come in a Waffle House, they going to
1:28:56
Speaker 4: make sure he eat before anybody. It's just what it is.
1:28:59
Speaker 9: And then secondly, your expertise being an athlete, being someone
1:29:03
Speaker 9: that's had... meal preps and dietary stuff like that, man,
1:29:07
Speaker 9: your expertise, it supersedes anything that a normal.
1:29:10
Speaker 4: Person is just eating every day. You eating to cut weight.
1:29:13
Speaker 9: So you automatically know what too much salt is, fried
1:29:16
Speaker 9: food is, you.
1:29:17
Speaker 4: Know what you need to be eating all.
1:29:18
Speaker 2: Cause I don't know if I look like it, but
1:29:20
Speaker 2: I eat right too.
1:29:21
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
1:29:21
Speaker 2: Like I eat right. I'm an athlete too.
1:29:23
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying? And so.
1:29:25
Speaker 9: What you're saying, even from what you're saying, that perspective
1:29:27
Speaker 9: is even more crazy because you know you're an athlete.
1:29:30
Speaker 4: You know what you got to eat.
1:29:30
Speaker 9: And then you're coming into restaurants where these restaurants are
1:29:33
Speaker 9: not made to. I mean, it's not like you went
1:29:35
Speaker 9: to a vegan restaurant and be like, oh, man, they
1:29:37
Speaker 9: don't do this in here. This ain't going to help you.
1:29:39
Speaker 9: You go into restaurants where they got fat. They making
1:29:42
Speaker 9: your back fat. This is what they do. This is
1:29:43
Speaker 9: for fat back zone. So you can't go in there.
1:29:46
Speaker 9: You can't go in there on some like, I'm trained.
1:29:49
Speaker 2: This is for fat back. You come here. I'm training,
1:29:51
Speaker 2: my nigga.
1:29:52
Speaker 4: Y'all ain't got. I only go to places I'm invited.
1:29:55
Speaker 4: so i never go anywhere unsolicited or i know i
1:29:57
Speaker 4: don't know how i go i just i only.
1:29:59
Speaker 11: Go to places that specifically say hey pull up now
1:30:02
Speaker 11: it's different right if i go in and i get
1:30:04
Speaker 11: my opinion and it's not the opinion you want to
1:30:06
Speaker 11: hear you invited me.
1:30:07
Speaker 4: Here you asked me to come get.
1:30:08
Speaker 11: My opinion but then you get upset because my opinion
1:30:11
Speaker 11: not what you want.
1:30:11
Speaker 9: To first of all an opinion that's this should stop
1:30:14
Speaker 9: their opinion period that's it that's an opinion i'm just
1:30:16
Speaker 9: saying because I'm just getting to know you.
1:30:18
Speaker 4: That your taste buds derived from a place.
1:30:21
Speaker 2: Of being an athlete.
1:30:23
Speaker 4: No, no, fucking no.
1:30:24
Speaker 2: You led with it because niggas band together and build
1:30:26
Speaker 2: some shit. We just want to accept it.
1:30:28
Speaker 5: You know, if I don't go to the restaurant and
1:30:30
Speaker 5: he's out there going in the field and he's going
1:30:33
Speaker 5: to report back to the community, his opinion. He said
1:30:36
Speaker 5: he led with that. And we all watch Keith Lee videos.
1:30:38
Speaker 5: He said, hey, this is just my shit.
1:30:40
Speaker 2: So why are we getting sensitive about that shit? You
1:30:42
Speaker 2: know what it is? Because niggas, I don't know about.
1:30:45
Speaker 5: him and his restaurant and I love 2 Chainz I
1:30:48
Speaker 5: love 2 Chainz he got a dope album with Alchemist
1:30:52
Speaker 5: he got a dope album with Static Selected that's coming
1:30:54
Speaker 5: out fire woo however bro if this shit is trash
1:30:58
Speaker 5: guess what we talk amongst each other in the group
1:31:00
Speaker 5: text yo that shit was not that shit was mid
1:31:03
Speaker 5: bro oh that shit was whack oh this the server
1:31:05
Speaker 5: man he talks about it all the time to the
1:31:08
Speaker 5: mountaintops house services.
1:31:09
Speaker 1: In any city oh and I'm not I'm not gonna
1:31:12
Speaker 1: lie so I get it and I will say And
1:31:15
Speaker 1: he's the owner. And my other friend is an owner
1:31:17
Speaker 1: of this strip club as well. I won't say the
1:31:20
Speaker 1: name of it just because when I promote it, I'll
1:31:22
Speaker 1: promote it. But the worst strip club food that I've
1:31:26
Speaker 1: had in Atlanta is that.
1:31:29
Speaker 2: But don't tell nobody that because they are capitalists. They
1:31:31
Speaker 2: just want.
1:31:33
Speaker 1: I want a different chef up in there. It was.
1:31:36
Speaker 1: It was so bad.
1:31:37
Speaker 5: But if you're a business owner, I would think that
1:31:40
Speaker 5: you want to hear the most honest shit from somebody
1:31:44
Speaker 5: who's established themselves in that world.
1:31:47
Speaker 1: Well, even in Yomi over there, we're looking at the comments.
1:31:51
Speaker 1: I think what 2 Chainz did in a not so
1:31:58
Speaker 1: direct but very disrespectful way was little boy the fuck out. Like,
1:32:02
Speaker 1: it would be like me being in a panel like
1:32:04
Speaker 1: this and somebody saying, yeah, like, I don't know if
1:32:07
Speaker 1: you still got your little podcast or whatever.
1:32:09
Speaker 2: Right. He said, who is little buddy? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:32:13
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if you still do the
1:32:14
Speaker 1: food reviews or whatever.
1:32:15
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, yeah. Nigga, you go. It's Keith Lee, nigga.
1:32:18
Speaker 2: That nigga just be there.
1:32:21
Speaker 5: Bro. Also, also, when you have discourse, you got to
1:32:24
Speaker 5: know who your quote unquote adversaries are.
1:32:26
Speaker 1: But don't disrespect someone for what they do, how they
1:32:28
Speaker 1: do it.
1:32:29
Speaker 2: Little buddy.
1:32:29
Speaker 1: Because to be fair, I don't know if y'all niggas
1:32:32
Speaker 1: been to McDonald's. This nigga just did a review on
1:32:34
Speaker 1: the fish filet. Them shits better be sold out across America.
1:32:37
Speaker 2: He said he never had a fish filet.
1:32:39
Speaker 1: He had a fish filet 8.7 out of 10.
1:32:41
Speaker 2: And I would have gave it a higher because that
1:32:43
Speaker 2: shit fire.
1:32:43
Speaker 1: He said that shit... And that's the crazy... You know,
1:32:46
Speaker 1: that and the McRib. My mama, when she was pregnant
1:32:48
Speaker 1: with me, loved the McRib.
1:32:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, those are the things. But the McRib was great.
1:32:53
Speaker 2: It was polarizing. There was an investigative.
1:32:55
Speaker 5: I'm not going to say which restaurant down in Atlanta,
1:32:57
Speaker 5: but a soul food restaurant who... On the menu, they
1:33:02
Speaker 5: said they were serving whitings, fried whitings.
1:33:04
Speaker 2: They come to.
1:33:05
Speaker 5: Find out it wasn't. It was like some other type
1:33:07
Speaker 5: of fish that was cheap. And they asked him, they
1:33:09
Speaker 5: tried to, oh, we didn't know. Oh, we're going to
1:33:11
Speaker 5: have to go back and check.
1:33:12
Speaker 1: Oh, wait, I saw this.
1:33:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I don't want to put the establishment on blast.
1:33:15
Speaker 2: Here's my thing.
1:33:16
Speaker 1: As black people who want to support black businesses and
1:33:20
Speaker 1: black people who want to start and own black businesses
1:33:25
Speaker 1: and restaurants and see more of us, we have to
1:33:27
Speaker 1: get to a point where we can critique our own.
1:33:29
Speaker 1: Because we want the best for it. We want to
1:33:32
Speaker 1: continue to support. But if the quality is not good
1:33:34
Speaker 1: and we don't like it, We should be able to
1:33:37
Speaker 1: let you know what we don't like, how it could
1:33:39
Speaker 1: be better. And y'all already know I done talked about
1:33:41
Speaker 1: the goddamn seasonings in Atlanta. Can we not also keep
1:33:46
Speaker 1: making fucking restaurants with seasoning so much that you want
1:33:50
Speaker 1: to label the food Big Mac?
1:33:51
Speaker 5: Why are we spewing this poison back into our food?
1:33:53
Speaker 5: It shouldn't be part of the menu. We are supposed
1:33:55
Speaker 5: to be promoting healthy options for people.
1:33:57
Speaker 2: Healthy options for us.
1:34:00
Speaker 5: And the other thing is, like, he talks about opinion.
1:34:02
Speaker 5: And I'm like, yeah, of course the internet is always
1:34:04
Speaker 5: going to have an opinion. You put something out in
1:34:06
Speaker 5: the public, you're going.
1:34:06
Speaker 2: To hear something back about it. And it is what
1:34:08
Speaker 2: it is. And you can.
1:34:09
Speaker 5: Tell who's giving you honest feedback and who's just trying
1:34:14
Speaker 5: to insult you for no reason.
1:34:16
Speaker 2: But Keith Lee is not a troll. Keith Lee is
1:34:18
Speaker 2: not an internet gangster.
1:34:20
Speaker 5: Like, Keith Lee is just doing honest work for what
1:34:24
Speaker 5: he feels like his experience is at restaurants. So, like,
1:34:27
Speaker 5: if he was levying that If 2 Chainz was trying
1:34:30
Speaker 5: to levy that critique against somebody else, maybe. That shit
1:34:33
Speaker 5: don't really fly with Keith Lee because Keith Lee is
1:34:35
Speaker 5: not out here to shit on nobody. And he's done
1:34:38
Speaker 5: multiple times where he said, I either went to a
1:34:41
Speaker 5: restaurant and didn't even put the video out because I
1:34:45
Speaker 5: didn't have nothing good to say about it and I
1:34:47
Speaker 5: thought it was just going to be worse. Or he's
1:34:49
Speaker 5: tried to go out of his way to be delicate
1:34:51
Speaker 5: in how he handles these situations. He's going to tell
1:34:53
Speaker 5: the truth, but he's admitted that he doesn't want to
1:34:57
Speaker 5: ever come across like he's just... going for some business's
1:35:01
Speaker 5: neck to try to cut them down.
1:35:02
Speaker 1: And by the way, for people, for anyone who's an artist,
1:35:08
Speaker 1: for anyone with an opinion, everybody ain't going to agree
1:35:14
Speaker 1: with you.
1:35:15
Speaker 2: Nope, nope.
1:35:15
Speaker 1: And this expectation to get everyone to love anything that
1:35:21
Speaker 1: you do.
1:35:21
Speaker 2: It's just not going to happen.
1:35:22
Speaker 1: Or to align with your thoughts and views and opinions.
1:35:25
Speaker 1: Or to get someone to see how you see things
1:35:29
Speaker 1: is an unrealistic expectation that will leave you miserable.
1:35:32
Speaker 11: Yep.
1:35:33
Speaker 1: People are allowed to disagree. People are allowed to have
1:35:36
Speaker 1: a different opinion. People are allowed to dislike your art.
1:35:40
Speaker 1: And as soon as you're able to receive, it's what
1:35:43
Speaker 1: I say when I talk about consent and power of no.
1:35:47
Speaker 1: If you want to be able to tell people no,
1:35:48
Speaker 1: you got to be able to receive a no. There's
1:35:51
Speaker 1: power in both. If you want to have an opinion,
1:35:53
Speaker 1: if we want to continue to have freedom of speech,
1:35:56
Speaker 1: you have to allow... And receive that someone is going
1:35:59
Speaker 1: to have something that you disagree with.
1:36:01
Speaker 2: Sure.
1:36:01
Speaker 1: And just allow it to be.
1:36:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, let it happen.
1:36:05
Speaker 1: Allow it to be. Now, y'all, this is not a
1:36:07
Speaker 1: sports podcast. We're not really going to get into the WNBA.
1:36:10
Speaker 1: But the WNBA season has come to an.
1:36:13
Speaker 2: End, unfortunately. Man.
1:36:15
Speaker 1: The dream did not win. Fireworks.
1:36:16
Speaker 4: Fireworks.
1:36:17
Speaker 2: Man.
1:36:17
Speaker 1: But a team that just got into the WNBA two
1:36:23
Speaker 1: seasons ago. is the WNBA Finals champions. Give it up
1:36:29
Speaker 1: to the Bay, which.
1:36:30
Speaker 2: Is the women.
1:36:32
Speaker 1: Yes, they are.
1:36:33
Speaker 2: Shout out to the Valks.
1:36:35
Speaker 1: The Bay be getting some goddamn championships, don't they? Y'all
1:36:38
Speaker 1: bitches be getting fucking parades all the time. Well, I
1:36:41
Speaker 1: don't know. The Warriors are.
1:36:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, the time has passed.
1:36:45
Speaker 5: They got some promising talent. Yeah, there's promising things happening,
1:36:50
Speaker 5: but they're not... Right, they're not the dominant.
1:36:53
Speaker 1: I do just want to leave off with saying really
1:36:55
Speaker 1: excited about where the WNBA has grown. I.
1:37:01
Speaker 1: It hurts my soul that Kobe is not here to
1:37:04
Speaker 1: see this.
1:37:04
Speaker 2: He would be going apeshit crazy at every single game.
1:37:07
Speaker 1: He would have front row seats. It hurts my soul
1:37:10
Speaker 1: that he is not here to see this growth. The
1:37:14
Speaker 1: season has expanded by 10 more games next season. So
1:37:18
Speaker 1: the WNBA season is going from 40 to 50 games,
1:37:21
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken. And the Dream is leaving Gateway
1:37:25
Speaker 1: Arena and having all games at State Farm next year.
1:37:29
Speaker 1: So they are going from... A 3,500 seat arena to
1:37:34
Speaker 1: 17,000 seats.
1:37:35
Speaker 5: Which I couldn't be happier about because you got all
1:37:39
Speaker 5: of these fucking conservative crackers and all these bitch ass
1:37:42
Speaker 5: loofah niggas and all these dumb people who think that Oh,
1:37:46
Speaker 5: if you want your league to grow, you got to
1:37:48
Speaker 5: do this. If you want your league, it's never going
1:37:49
Speaker 5: to grow if you do this. And you're talking about
1:37:51
Speaker 5: race and you're talking about gays and Caitlin Clark and
1:37:54
Speaker 5: all that. They didn't need none of that shit for
1:37:58
Speaker 5: this to be one of the biggest sporting moments of
1:38:01
Speaker 5: the year.
1:38:02
Speaker 1: And I will say, double down or take it back,
1:38:06
Speaker 1: I'm taking back anything... that wasn't kind about Angel Reese.
1:38:11
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. That's cool. That's cool. Clap it up.
1:38:16
Speaker 1: You know, and I get at the time that she
1:38:18
Speaker 1: entered the league, pay wasn't yet there. They were undergoing that.
1:38:22
Speaker 1: She was, maybe felt at the time she had to
1:38:26
Speaker 1: make money in other means. I thought that there was
1:38:29
Speaker 1: a lot more emphasis on her social life, her having
1:38:34
Speaker 1: the podcast and all these things. But to see what
1:38:37
Speaker 1: she's done here for this Atlanta Dream in just a year-
1:38:41
Speaker 1: Really dope to see the respect that she's getting from
1:38:43
Speaker 1: the city. And having been able to watch her this season,
1:38:47
Speaker 1: I went to three games. Y'all know my DJ, Jazzy T.
1:38:50
Speaker 1: Shout out to her.
1:38:51
Speaker 2: Shout out, Jazzy T.
1:38:51
Speaker 1: She's the official DJ of the Atlanta Dream. So I've
1:38:54
Speaker 1: had the opportunity to really get into the game of
1:38:58
Speaker 1: the WNBA. And here in Atlanta, being a city that,
1:39:02
Speaker 1: to me, anytime I go to a Hawks or Falcons game,
1:39:05
Speaker 1: there seems to be more people rooting for the away teams.
1:39:08
Speaker 1: It was really good to come to an arena where
1:39:11
Speaker 1: and it be as loud as it was for the
1:39:13
Speaker 1: local team.
1:39:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were turnt up again.
1:39:15
Speaker 1: Because we done went to the Celtics games. I've been
1:39:17
Speaker 1: to other games. Anytime the Cowboys come to town or
1:39:21
Speaker 1: any of the other big teams, you see more of
1:39:24
Speaker 1: them than Falcons jerseys, right?
1:39:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
1:39:26
Speaker 1: So it was really dope to see just the city
1:39:27
Speaker 1: of Atlanta show that they are a sports team that
1:39:30
Speaker 1: cares about their local sports team.
1:39:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, they care.
1:39:33
Speaker 1: Everyone for women was good to see.
1:39:35
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
1:39:36
Speaker 5: As far as fandom goes, the Braves are... the biggest,
1:39:40
Speaker 5: most storied, most credentialed championship team in the city, who
1:39:45
Speaker 5: have a long history of having success in Major League Baseball,
1:39:49
Speaker 5: World Series, pennants, the whole thing. But with the other
1:39:53
Speaker 5: two teams, with the Hawks and the Falcons.
1:39:57
Speaker 2: You got to give.
1:39:58
Speaker 5: Yes, it would be great if we were a city that,
1:40:01
Speaker 5: like Cleveland Browns, that was like, oh, we're diehard the Raiders.
1:40:05
Speaker 5: We're here every game. We don't care if we win
1:40:07
Speaker 5: or lose. We're here every single game. And that's great
1:40:09
Speaker 5: for y'all.
1:40:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, Cowboys.
1:40:10
Speaker 5: But it's like, at some point, you have to give
1:40:12
Speaker 5: the fans something to cheer for.
1:40:15
Speaker 2: If you want the asset in the seat.
1:40:17
Speaker 1: It's tough being a... Stop being a Falcons fan.
1:40:20
Speaker 2: And all I know is suffering. Shout out to New
1:40:22
Speaker 2: England Patriots. Fuck the Patriots. I know. Patriots can fucking
1:40:25
Speaker 2: suck dicks.
1:40:25
Speaker 1: You're a Patriots fan?
1:40:26
Speaker 5: Absolutely not. But remember when they was up? We don't
1:40:29
Speaker 5: talk about that. It was up 29-0 in the championship.
1:40:33
Speaker 2: The point is... I know, I know, I know. I
1:40:36
Speaker 2: wanted y'all to win.
1:40:36
Speaker 5: I felt like everybody who wasn't white and wasn't in
1:40:40
Speaker 5: New England wanted us to win the game.
1:40:42
Speaker 1: You got a work call?
1:40:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do. Also, shout out to the New York Giants,
1:40:46
Speaker 2: the number one in our division.
1:40:47
Speaker 5: We wasn't expecting to do anything this year, but the
1:40:50
Speaker 5: league is still pending.
1:40:51
Speaker 2: A lot of injuries, too. It's crazy. It's crazy.
1:40:54
Speaker 1: Because we're eating 3D printed meats.
1:40:56
Speaker 2: But shout out to Gabby Williams.
1:40:58
Speaker 5: She went crazy in the second half of that game,
1:41:01
Speaker 5: and she's really the sole reason. why the dream lost
1:41:05
Speaker 5: because like she was unstoppable and that was like super
1:41:08
Speaker 5: super dope to see.
1:41:09
Speaker 1: I'm excited for next season I'm excited for next season
