2:24
Corie: I don't know what what's yeah for the in a supplemental way.
2:29
Corie: Sometimes we struggle to find the name of the episodes and them kind of thing.
2:33
Corie: Sometimes we struggle to find the theme of the episodes.
2:36
Corie: But some episodes name themselves and the themes find themselves because the theme for this episode is the wordiest calypsos of all time.
2:44
Corie: And calypso had, hard, hard to sing it.
2:46
Corie: Salute to the great, great, great Timothy Watkins, the Baron, for kicking me up.
2:51
Corie: I've given Oli this week, right?
2:54
Corie: The wordiest set of Kaiso ever.
2:56
Corie: Because I come here all the time and say I just have all kinds of trouble reading.
3:00
Corie: So I come to defend the great Alexander.
3:04
Corie: Why he sung Alexander thing?
3:06
Corie: It's hard to talk, you know.
3:07
Corie: When you say you're talking this much, you must hit him as suppliquental every now and again.
3:11
Corie: What we had?
3:12
Corie: We had breakfast, we had paradigm.
3:15
Corie: Now we are subsequent.
3:16
Corie: I I what is subsequental, suppliquental?
3:18
Corie: Me, I can't remember what you say, no, but coming a suppliquental release, you know what I mean?
3:22
Corie: When the suppliquent time, we're gonna talk about that.
3:24
Corie: I have a nice fine listening of Kaiso here that is about words of the wordiest kaisos we ever have.
3:30
Corie: It coincident, it it coincidence, it coincides so well with our last episode, which was the wordiest episode we have ever had of all the time.
3:40
Corie: I'd I don't go back and tell you.
3:42
Corie: Because I have some people behind the camera here, right?
3:45
Corie: Oli mightn't be seeing what's going on behind the camera all the time.
3:47
Corie: But usually I have some gentlemen and gentlewomen who would usually tell me like 10 minutes to go, half hour to go, and them kind of thing.
3:55
Corie: And I sit down talking to Mr.
3:57
Corie: Kes DiFantalo, and everything was going smooth.
4:00
Corie: It feels like we were talking for 5, 10, 15 minutes, and then I start to see sign go up saying half hour to go.
4:06
Corie: So when I see half hour to go, I really told us to do it.
4:08
Corie: I thought an hour to go, and no, but Kess was a very, very easy person to talk to.
4:12
Corie: Salute to Kes.
4:13
Corie: Salute to the team.
4:15
Corie: The studio was full.
4:16
Corie: So somehow we end up with an episode that was two and a half hours long.
4:19
Corie: Two hours, 30 minutes, 16 seconds.
4:22
Corie: 30,788 words.
4:25
Corie: I feel like we should send a written apology to Kes and the team for keeping in mind.
4:30
Corie: That is our dry mouth conversation.
4:31
Corie: But I glad people enjoying it.
4:32
Corie: I'm glad Oli take it in.
4:34
Corie: And I felt like um every now and again that's happening, it's get lost in the conversation, and you have a certain amount of respect for the person who's sitting opposite you.
4:43
Corie: But that was one way I don't feel we ever see Kess in that light collectively.
4:48
Corie: By now you should be done with Kess.
4:50
Corie: I would tell Oli, right?
4:51
Corie: The name of this game for the rest of the year, the name of the game is keep up, the name of the game is not catch up.
4:55
Corie: Oli still, I now see in Karen telling me this morning, Kess episode now start to pick up because like Oli now done with Dominic.
5:02
Corie: Come Oli, Oli pick up, pick up, sharpen up all the ears.
5:05
Corie: If only could sit down and listen to people talk about suppliquants and things, you could listen to episodes faster.
5:09
Corie: Yeah, we're pushing them out.
5:11
Corie: We're having things and we haven't things to release.
5:14
Corie: So have a nice fine lineup of kaiso for you.
5:17
Corie: Oli want to hear kaiso about word?
5:34
SPEAKER_09: Oh, I received a left up from the bullet minute.
5:49
SPEAKER_09: What's the one thing up?
5:52
SPEAKER_09: What can it stop my name?
5:56
SPEAKER_09: What's the bit of my name?
6:02
SPEAKER_09: So I don't want to be now there.
6:21
SPEAKER_09: I'm pushing that one lit.
6:35
SPEAKER_09: I want to eat up.
6:37
SPEAKER_09: I want to win.
6:42
SPEAKER_09: If you hear me, I start to metamorphistically I am the room.
6:51
SPEAKER_09: And who no quote coronavirus?
6:53
SPEAKER_09: You are influenced.
6:58
SPEAKER_09: And crawling big wood man.
7:06
SPEAKER_09: Can you get tight on those things before I said?
7:08
SPEAKER_09: Big wood man.
7:10
Corie: Hey, would have a RNA said, Oli slow down, all you slow down here.
7:13
Corie: The great, the great, the great.
7:16
Corie: Reo.
7:17
Corie: So Alexander only all again, Alexander pressure, man.
7:19
Corie: Let me read the article and hear what they say.
7:21
Corie: Because I hear announcement by my prime minister saying here now, it have about 30-something place in the country.
7:27
Corie: We put in police and army joint posts, right?
7:30
Corie: And between Kodition, I mean it's a mobile post, but it's not mobile and it's nailed on white.
7:35
Corie: So nailed down and it could blow away and it's on wheels, but it's not so much on wheels and them kind of thing.
7:39
Corie: I sort of wonder when I hear mobile police posts, right?
7:41
Corie: The first thing I study is I just sometimes I just dream, you know.
7:44
Corie: Sometimes when I fall asleep, I just carry my bow, I dream.
7:47
Corie: Because I dream when there was Lango Dominic Hadith the first time that they had a mobile post set up outside the house because he was supposed to be under house arrest.
7:57
Corie: But there's a record bring the mobile units.
8:01
Corie: The mobile units had to be brought by record.
8:03
Corie: And then two days later, he free under no house arrest.
8:05
Corie: So me and no way the mobile units end up, but I suppose the mobile unit ended up in.
8:10
Corie: Tunapuna, Piako Regional Corporation.
8:13
Corie: And because if a record had to move it, I think sometimes he had a nail dung and put a switch tank on an NGC pipeline and so on.
8:18
Corie: But let me read.
8:19
Corie: Unicott steps into Eddie Hard Police Army disposed dispute.
8:23
Corie: State agency to meet with Tunapune Region uh Tunapuno Piako Regional Corporation, chairman on contentious construction.
8:31
Corie: So if you if you know for the people who are listening abroad and these kind of things, army and police joint patrol is part of the crime fighting plan.
8:41
Corie: Because the man said they don't have a crime plan, they have an anti-crime plan.
8:45
Corie: The man got up with words and he said we have no crime plan, we have an anti-crime plan.
8:51
Corie: If it's one thing Alexander would get some song bite you, we get something you could play on podcasts and them kind of thing.
8:57
Corie: So after two days of confrontation over the Eddie Hard Mobile Police Post, the urban uh Unicott has stepped into the dispute, identifying itself as the project manager and agreeing to meet with officials of the TPRC on Monday.
9:12
Corie: TPRC Chairman Josiah Austin told Guardian Media that Unicot contacted the corporation on Friday night to request the meeting.
9:19
Corie: The development comes as questions remain over whether work on the Edihad project has been completed.
9:26
Corie: While rural development and local government minister Khadija Amin said construction was completed on Friday, she said mobile and the construction of a mobile police is wild.
9:35
Corie: The mobile police unit had not been placed on the newly built foundation when the Guardian Media visited the grounds yesterday morning.
9:42
Corie: So, I mean, since then, the thing built, right?
9:44
Corie: They think Bill, right now it passes stage this discussion around whether it's billing and them kind of thing.
9:52
Corie: What really happened is and Galton Little Page and the furniture people, we're in the final stages of construction and production right now.
10:05
Corie: It's moving forward.
10:07
Corie: And um personally, in terms of my opinion about it, and I hear I saw I want to say is the guardian, I saw uh interview some people on spot in Eddie Hart Savano.
10:20
Corie: And it was vendors as well as patrons, and most people welcome the move.
10:24
Corie: Most people welcome the move.
10:26
Corie: I didn't realize well, I guess you should be able to guess this in Trinidad and Tobago by now, but people are talking about how much robberies they had.
10:31
Corie: So many vendors talking about them getting Robert Gunpoint, they're breaking in, people can't do.
10:35
Corie: So anywhere you have more police patrol or police presence or army presence in this current state in Trinidad, except for the last 10 days when they had no murders, right?
10:45
Corie: But generally speaking, I welcome that, you know, because it it gives people a safer space to commune to commune to come together and enjoy yourself and them kind of things.
10:56
Corie: So and and the Eddie Hat Savannah become one of those places where people is going to the Eddie Hat Savannah full every night.
11:02
Corie: And day two.
11:03
Corie: They have a lot of different places selling food and them kind of thing.
11:06
Corie: So I find I find it a welcome call.
11:08
Corie: But of course, the the the the the same thing I was talking about last week.
11:11
Corie: We have our way, we we dig our heels in to put to political support.
11:17
Corie: So I can't say that I am for the joint army police patrol or the police mobile, not so mobile units and so on.
11:25
Corie: I can't say that and not be a PNM or a UNC, and I can't question why I only get the proper approvals, because it's clear that the proper approvals it seems like all the skirting around the question about proper approval.
11:38
Corie: I can't I can't question them things.
11:40
Corie: No, no, we can't question it.
11:41
Corie: You see, I used to talk about the the country split into three thirds, right?
11:45
Corie: They have a UNC third that's not moving and will never change, they have a PNM third that's not moving and will never change.
11:52
Corie: And there's a middle third where I think most of us lie.
11:56
Corie: And um, when I say most of us, most of us who listen to this podcast, somewhere in the middle.
12:01
Corie: The middle is a spectrum to where some people is middle P and M and middle UNC, you know.
12:05
Corie: I mean, they're all the way in the middle.
12:07
Corie: But that's fine.
12:08
Corie: But yeah, I don't understand why we can't just question these kind of things.
12:11
Corie: Because there's when people question it, it seems as though the um the social media warriors and vloggers went immediately to say nobody was questioning the PM and nobody, which is absolutely untrue.
12:25
Corie: That is that is the furthest thing from reality I hear in a long time.
12:29
Corie: How you mean people wasn't questioning the PM?
12:31
Corie: Everything the PM was doing over the last 10 years, people was questioning every move, and people was fed up of it.
12:36
Corie: People was a fed they say the boss rowlers was arrogant talking to we rough.
12:40
Corie: People used to question it every day.
12:42
Corie: But realizing narrative is more important than the real history and them kind of thing.
12:46
Corie: That's why I appreciate I appreciate everybody who tuned in to the episode last week.
12:50
Corie: I glad you're all enjoying it.
12:51
Corie: I want to tell you that that's the real podcast, too, and that's what the podcast is really about.
12:55
Corie: Not just the interviews and not just the conversations with people, but the opinions that we have.
13:00
Corie: And I and I appreciate people coming to the comments to show their appreciation for it, but also to give a different perspective.
13:07
Corie: I don't want to only feel like I'm talking at anybody.
13:10
Corie: Though mine is me alone, I'm talking with Oli.
13:12
Corie: And I might feel the way I feel today, and I might feel completely different next week.
13:18
Corie: I alright with that.
13:18
Corie: So I'm real comfortable with people not agreeing with what I say or seeing it differently.
13:24
Corie: Are you alright with that?
13:25
Corie: And put any comments, we can always debate any comments.
13:27
Corie: The comments in these episodes tend to be a little bit more engaging, and I always feel both the solo episodes I do, which will come out every week or they'll about, you know what I mean, somewhere around that timing, and the interviews.
13:40
Corie: I always feel these conversation starters, them thing is not to finish the conversation.
13:44
Corie: I don't have all the answers, I just really have my opinion.
13:47
Corie: So I'm open to the opinions of others.
13:50
Corie: And like I had to say too that I just I had to tell the people in the emancipation committee that they have killed me this week, you know.
13:56
Corie: Woo! Well, they're taking it taking things serious.
14:01
Corie: I understand.
14:02
Corie: I understand all the feedback I get from people who are close to and enjoy the emancipation committee and their work.
14:06
Corie: And I want to say, if I didn't say it clearly enough last week, I want to commend the people who in the Emancipation Support Committee for both the Emancipation Village and the March.
14:17
Corie: I think it's a good thing, the parade.
14:19
Corie: I think it's a good thing.
14:20
Corie: I think it's is very, very good.
14:21
Corie: I always talking from the standpoint of what we could do to make this the greatest thing in the world.
14:26
Corie: I I don't see why the things that we have we can't make the greatest in the world.
14:30
Corie: If we rewrite in our own dictionary with words like confabulate, explatiate, and suppliquent.
14:36
Corie: We we could we could create anything we want in this world.
14:38
Corie: We the greatest people it have, you know what I mean?
14:40
Corie: So I never talking from a standpoint of uh accusatory or wasting down nobody.
14:45
Corie: I understand and I understand the budgetary constraints and and budget might be Lily said the constraints.
14:52
Corie: There's there's and and Vaughnett said it well when I had a teller springer here, she said it well.
14:57
Corie: In terms of the difficulty with African-related uh celebrations or themes to really raise the kind of funding that we want.
15:09
Corie: But I I talking about it from the standpoint of us talking, I'm not talking at anybody, and um I want to I want I want to make that clear because I do I can recognize the amount of work that goes into putting on an emancipation village.
15:23
Corie: And somebody told me last year, I was glad for some feedback as well, saying that some some guys who own the boots reach out to me at the time, well, they know the sales wasn't as good as some of the other years because a part of how you do this is you had to make sure that the business people who involved making money.
15:39
Corie: We have to be able to discuss how these things help business people.
15:44
Corie: We want to see the best and the brightest and and and look great.
15:48
Corie: So my my gripe with the emancipation uh village, and I wanted to understand that as a sliver, I just went there the night and I see why I see.
15:57
Corie: I finally Friday night could have been more vibes.
15:59
Corie: Yeah, finally deco and the thing could and understand the the budgetary constraints.
16:03
Corie: And other people, other than the breadful pizza people, had to be able to make money.
16:08
Corie: If you're not making money and not going to, it's never going to thrive.
16:12
Corie: I feel like we had to make sure that we don't or be careful not to always equate Africann-ness and African pride with struggle.
16:23
Corie: And I I want to be careful how I'm saying that, right?
16:25
Corie: Because I'm not accusing anybody of saying this, but it's like I see movies like Django Unchained, I see movies like Twelve Years a Slave, and I see the discussion in the states how there seems to be in Hollywood a quicker approval of big budgets for a movie that revisits and rehashes different angles on slavery.
16:49
Corie: Sometimes written the scripts written by Jewish writers and so on.
16:54
Corie: And um maybe there's an opportunity to tell a different kind of story about emancipation, not always talk about like I like I like Django.
17:02
Corie: I watch Django every time it comes on.
17:04
Corie: I like the movie as a really good movie and it's a story about overcoming.
17:07
Corie: But I feel like we have an opportunity to tell a different story about overcoming.
17:10
Corie: I was talking to my partner, salute my partner Jade.
17:12
Corie: That you want to say I was playing African last week, you know.
17:15
Corie: I mean, yeah, that's special boy, and I'm a partner.
17:18
Corie: But in talking about it with him, I was saying, but a part of what we can show as emancipation, other than just the food, the clothes, the performances, and so on.
17:28
Corie: I wonder if we if we can't find the the best and brightest and most successful African business people as a story of overcoming.
17:38
Corie: So you find the Langston roaches of this world, you find the Dupreme rest in peace, or whoever the people might be who represent us, and showcase them differently.
17:46
Corie: You don't want to be in the village either, don't want to be in the parade, they have an opportunity to do those things in Napa so that young businessmen like myself could go and hear from people who look like me and talk like me and live where I live and struggle like I struggle to see what they came to.
18:01
Corie: People just tell me that in the comments all the time, like they say, Well, but this they sell out people.
18:06
Corie: You bring Dominic Adidas bring people who start from scratch, and that's what we're doing all the time.
18:11
Corie: We're doing it all the time.
18:12
Corie: So I would love to see the people who come from areas we come from.
18:16
Corie: I was just coincidentally last week I went Lavanti Road with my Uncle Paul G, you know.
18:20
Corie: I mean, there's my father from originally, Fabo Village Lavanti Road.
18:24
Corie: And when when you see somebody come from an environment like that and achieve great things and and make a mark in this society, I feel like it's things that we should celebrate.
18:36
Corie: So maybe putting it out there that emancipation.
18:38
Corie: And I also want to say as well that anything I could do on this platform to support that effort, either to raise more funding, elevate the thing, uh attract the people who we need to attract to be there, or they don't just call me.
18:53
Corie: I don't answer my phone so much.
18:54
Corie: I'm not a young man, but well fine, fine men, and let me do this thing.
18:57
Corie: I I just want to see.
18:59
Corie: There was a time when there was no emancipation village or parade or anything, and we've brought it to this part.
19:05
Corie: Saying we now we brought it to this point.
19:08
Corie: If we could carry it to the next point and make it into a global tourist attraction where, like when they come here for carnival, they could come here and experience our emancipation because we see people who start eating, you know.
19:19
Corie: I mean, if we start eating, we have to continue to elevate it and allow it to rise, allow it to continue to grow.
19:26
Corie: I I I I am all for that, I will always be for that.
19:30
Corie: Now, as I bring up Ottila Springer, right?
19:33
Corie: I have to I have to give some kudos to Attila Springer because I went to a show last week, Wednesday.
19:44
Corie: Now I'm not an easy man to get out of my house, and I don't tell all the operators about a half hour sleeping.
19:49
Corie: I struggle in here because people fly out, people go on their way, so is I alone on picnic and picnic don't sleep.
19:55
Corie: I never see nothing like this.
19:56
Corie: Anybody are newborn there and looking for advice because right now I'm looking for hysteria and anything starting at that age, anything is rubble brandy by the lip.
20:05
Corie: I'm looking for something that is let her and sleep through the night because we ain't gonna survive this.
20:09
Corie: You know, if the first night went like this, I am not sure that I could really, you know what I mean?
20:15
Corie: I could really survive and I have what it takes to get through.
20:21
Corie: Wait is three or four more nights of this.
20:23
Corie: I don't know if I have it in me.
20:25
Corie: But I did find my way out the house last week Wednesday night, and I had to tell all you about Attila Springer.
20:30
Corie: And it's attached to the emancipation celebration of it as well.
20:34
Corie: The name of it is Roots and Rights, the Emancipation Concert.
20:37
Corie: And I think Attila and them do a great job.
20:40
Corie: I had to tell you about it.
20:41
Corie: But not before I go to Kaiso about words.

Corie: Me and if my wife likes she was talking backwards, because me you know nothing about this trip she's taken.
23:29
Corie: That is only last time she goes in the airport.
23:31
Corie: Me, you know, if she goes on here still.
23:33
Corie: Cambole riots.
23:34
Corie: I don't know the Cambole Riots reenactment.
23:36
Corie: Salute to Attila Springer, salute to Mommy Springer, Auntie and Twee Springer.
23:42
Corie: I went to the show Wednesday night.
23:43
Corie: Me and my mother come out of the house.
23:44
Corie: Now, I had to tell you, if you invited me to a show and you want me to come, invite my mother.
23:50
Corie: Because she is the one who reminds me about this thing.
23:52
Corie: I doesn't know the 5th of August reaching out.
23:54
Corie: Tell Oli I is being a little bit of a trap.
23:56
Corie: Because I recorded an episode now that go come out middle of September.
24:01
Corie: And I watch an episode now that people watching like Kess, where we record a month and a half ago.
24:07
Corie: So I never in the present moment is the strangest part of my life I live.
24:11
Corie: But invite my mother, and we're gonna be fine.
24:14
Corie: Because she reminds me, she says, remember you said I tell us the spring and them thing is Wednesday.
24:18
Corie: Well, here now I want to go.
24:19
Corie: I say, oh Lord, Wednesday night.
24:21
Corie: I say, who does keep things on our Wednesday night, big central bank auditorium and think I'll go now and see people and them kind of thing.
24:27
Corie: I hide in since we bought Dominica D I hiding.
24:30
Corie: So I went and picked up mommy, we go on in the central bank auditorium, six o'clock.
24:35
Corie: That is my kind of hours too.
24:36
Corie: If you want my commuting, do it start at six o'clock and finish.
24:39
Corie: Let me be back in my bed by nine o'clock.
24:41
Corie: I is not a lost night rest.
24:43
Corie: As I say, Roots and Wrights Emancipation Concert.
24:46
Corie: We went on in the central bank auditorium.
24:48
Corie: I have to assume that it was an invitation.
24:53
Corie: It seems as though an invitation only event, because it's a it's a stars among stars kind of thing.
24:57
Corie: And when I go on there, I see well, I see Keegan Taylor, he involved in the production, I see John Gill, I see all the people who see who is who is going to eventually.
25:07
Corie: Them don't pay and go nowhere.
25:08
Corie: So I understood that she was putting it out, and I know it had something to do with the Camberly Riot reenactment that they would typically do behind the bridge on a Carnival Friday morning, right?
25:21
Corie: Now I always feel like there's something special happening behind the bridge there on a Carnival Friday morning.
25:28
Corie: And I don't even know as an Instagram champion too, because I only went that once in a year.
25:31
Corie: See, if you feel it's easy, it's hard to get me to leave my bed on an evening.
25:35
Corie: But you see to reach the three four o'clock in the morning to get a seat.
25:39
Corie: But I made it my point to go there, if not last year, year before.
25:42
Corie: And there's something special about it.
25:44
Corie: Not just the whole reenactment, but the fact that it is behind the bridge and the community there is involved.
25:52
Corie: It makes it feel, you feel something when you go there, and it's important.
25:56
Corie: I heard Val Mickey Mirage when he was here talking about trying to, when iShow Speed was here, you're trying to create it, and he said it was just too far for them to go behind the bridge, but he wanted it to be there.
26:06
Corie: So Val Ad I went to it or till us to Val.
26:09
Corie: And I think it's important.
26:11
Corie: I understood the sentiment because I was there.
26:14
Corie: I understand what he means when he says taking him there for him to feel what you feel when you go behind the bridge.
26:20
Corie: And um the latest episode you should be listening to.
26:22
Corie: If you're keeping up, if you're keeping up to date, you should be listening to the Canadian High Commissioner Michael Callan.
26:28
Corie: He is talking about understanding from his perspective what is Caribana as a boy growing up in Toronto and them thing.
26:35
Corie: He understands Caribana and Toronto have a strong Caribbean community.
26:39
Corie: So he spoke about the Campbell Riot reenactment as something that allowed him to see for the first time what the origins of this carnival that we have.
26:50
Corie: Where it started, what how come it's such a this grand thing?
26:53
Corie: Why do we how we so connected with it?
26:56
Corie: Why do we feel something spiritual when we play a mass?
26:58
Corie: Also like me, so I want to kiss the ground when I walk in our fit.
27:01
Corie: Something spiritual happened there and it's real.
27:03
Corie: So I tell her spring and them salute them, they always do that every year.
27:06
Corie: So when she said she was doing the the reenactments in central bank, I tell her, say I tell her girl coming.
27:12
Corie: And she started by talking about the fact that there's a connection between the emancipation, uh emancipation as a celebration, and the Camboley Riot reenactment, right?
27:25
Corie: And I I found that it was um especially after recording about the emancipation village and what emancipation is last week.
27:38
Corie: I don't think it was by chance that she said that.
27:42
Corie: It gave me the impression that there's uh I want to use the word disjointedness between the people who plan an emancipation celebration.
27:52
Corie: I ain't talking on behalf of Attila here, I just telling you.
27:54
Corie: My impression from saying no in the crowd, she came and she introduced what it was.
27:58
Corie: It was a play in the first half and a sort of musical presentation in the second half, right?
28:02
Corie: Two shows for the price of one.
28:04
Corie: Three.
28:05
Corie: But the fact that she said some people are missing the connection between the Camberlay reenactment or the Camberly riots, the real Camberly riots and emancipation.
28:17
Corie: I thought it was a pointed statement.
28:19
Corie: When she says some people, I have to assume that the organizers or the people who may be in charge of the celebration of emancipation seems to be that it happened in pockets.
28:29
Corie: This happened with every celebration that we have.
28:31
Corie: Just remember, like go back to Japo talking about it, and you will see that Japo talks about the Moon Association as being once again.
28:38
Corie: It happens.
28:38
Corie: That's that's that's who we are.
28:40
Corie: We have a rough history, you know.
28:41
Corie: Sometimes we it is difficult for us to get together.
28:45
Corie: So uh when I heard her say that, I say, alright, well, she's talking to somebody here, and the play really started to make the connection between the people who were in the sort of the barraque or who were in slave houses or the chatteled, the enslaved, and their efforts to identify themselves and to find their own freedom, find their space, find what they need, find the expression.
29:11
Corie: And I think it was an excellent, well put together play.
29:18
Corie: I I would say that it is it was at times emotional, at times emotional, because the truth is like I I I find it difficult to sit through things where we're re-enacting anything to do with being being enslaved.
29:38
Corie: Sometimes when I watching them things, I I have a tendency, you know, the people talk about the interviews and stuff.
29:42
Corie: When people talk about something in an interview, I think my I just go to the space the person talking about.
29:47
Corie: So when I uh when I watching TV or I watching a play, I travel to the place where the play happened.
29:54
Corie: And I had a rough time watching that in the beginning because it was very emotional seeing these people who were enslaved and trying to find their freedom and trying to trying to justify almost why they should be free and even even talking among themselves as to should I should we revolt?
30:17
Corie: Should we try to get out of it?
30:18
Corie: Everybody agreed that we need freedom, but you could see in the group they had there, the people who they might have been whole and on, you know.
30:26
Corie: They had a lady there by the name of Marsandrin.
30:28
Corie: Mars Sandrin played by Janet Stanley McCano.
30:31
Corie: Boy, listen.
30:33
Corie: Marsand, uh Ms.
30:34
Corie: McCano, I can't watch you too regular, you know.
30:37
Corie: I can't watch you too regular.
30:38
Corie: You are a little too real for me.
30:39
Corie: I that it was a little too real in terms of how she played that and the emotion that went into it.
30:45
Corie: I think it was it was it was a very, very good juxtaposition.
30:50
Corie: Because I hear like Kanye West make this statement at a time that slavery was her choice.
30:54
Corie: When people, you know, you find that them discussions is going all the time.
30:58
Corie: And what what I saw till and then put forward there was in our in a yard talking to one another.
31:05
Corie: What were the choices being made?
31:06
Corie: Because some people saying, boy, we can't just revolt just so we will get cut.
31:10
Corie: Some people say it's like everybody agreed that we need to be free and we want our freedom, and we're not waiting no six years, and we're not waiting no nine years, we we go in now, we go in and take this thing back, we're going and take what belongs to us.
31:22
Corie: There was also somebody who played Haitian Francois, Tom B.
31:25
Corie: It was it was it was it was funny to see him, Emmanuel and Solia.
31:28
Corie: I hope I pronouncing people's name right.
31:31
Corie: And just watching them play them roles is very, very interesting because he's speaking as a Haitian revolutionary, and we know the Haiti experience was different.
31:41
Corie: And I mean, you see what happened in Haiti up to today.
31:44
Corie: The fact that they wanted to break the chains and took back what would belong to them and not just take it back, and they were treated as stealing something, and they owe France up to today for stealing it.
31:55
Corie: So a couple of things that stood out is that there's this disconnect, there's definitely a disconnect between the people who organise an emancipation and what uh Attila and they seem to want to present as part of what led to our freedom.
32:10
Corie: And I wish those things would come together because I think there's space for a lot of it.
32:14
Corie: It's like how we have things like Coachella or even Carnival here.
32:18
Corie: You see how Carnival spans from December, if I can say December, from from from Boxing Day to last Wednesday, it's kind of like Carnival.
32:27
Corie: And you see how Christmas is starting in July and then start back again in September all the way to Lewa.
32:33
Corie: I feel like we have an opportunity.
32:35
Corie: In school, they used to teach me something called absolute and comparative advantage.
32:40
Corie: School days now, you know what I mean?
32:41
Corie: I go in lecturer mode every now and again.
32:44
Corie: They talk about international business theory, right?
32:47
Corie: And in international business theory, they say, well, when we trade in and what we gonna give you and what you're gonna give me.
32:54
Corie: There are two situations that lead to trade.
32:56
Corie: That absolute and comparative advantage are real thing.
32:59
Corie: So in an absolute advantage, trend that we can't really grow grapes, right?
33:03
Corie: So the the states or Canada have an absolute advantage over we had to get grapes from them if we were grapes, right?
33:09
Corie: Basically, we can't we can't make no side.
33:10
Corie: We can't grow grapes here.
33:12
Corie: And I feel like we have an absolute advantage over everybody else in this world that we're not taking advantage of.
33:21
Corie: The absolute advantage at one point in the Caribbean was oil and gas, but like we are no more of that boy.
33:26
Corie: This thing ran dry.
33:27
Corie: The well on them run dry.
33:29
Corie: It's a no more.
33:30
Corie: The well on them empty.
33:31
Corie: The well on them like Gaspari caves.
33:33
Corie: Just know we could be touring the oil wells and thing, you know what I mean?
33:36
Corie: That might be the new ecotourism.
33:38
Corie: But the absolute advantage we have in this world is vibes.
33:41
Corie: It has nobody vibes election big one young.
33:44
Corie: So I feel like if we could make Christmas last three months or four months, and we could make carnival because it's a matter of time before they change this ash Wednesday thing and they push the NA Carnival to Good Friday, but we're making everything last two and three months.
34:02
Corie: I don't see why we should not have festival after festival.
34:07
Corie: Better we just sell vibes.
34:08
Corie: We can't run out of that.
34:09
Corie: We could run out of oil and gas is a non-renewable energy, non-renewable resource.
34:15
Corie: But the vibes and energy here can many, many people say it in the song.
34:19
Corie: Vibes, yeah, don't remember the song, it cannot done, it cannot run out.
34:22
Corie: So I feel like if we say we look at our calendar, right?
34:27
Corie: I was at our meeting in the office, they know how long they ask me to do a content calendar, they're gonna get out in about 2025.
34:33
Corie: About 2026, they will get content calendar.
34:36
Corie: But if you take a calendar and you say, alright, January to somewhere around February or March, that is one festival, like carnival.
34:44
Corie: And then you say, somewhere around February or March, all the way to Easter, vibes.
34:48
Corie: That is our next kind of scene and our thing we could make that.
34:51
Corie: We supposed to have the biggest Easter egg hunt in the world.
34:54
Corie: The great you can't find Easter because now we are real, well that empty.
34:59
Corie: We can hide egg all down in there.
35:00
Corie: We supposed to have people.
35:01
Corie: I see a man showing me a thing the other day.
35:03
Corie: Where it has some, we may know we're part of the white man country it's in.
35:06
Corie: But they roll a block of cheese down a hill, right?
35:09
Corie: What do you call it?
35:09
Corie: A wheel of cheese.
35:10
Corie: They roll a wheel of cheese down a hill.
35:12
Corie: And man diving, breaking up the hand and foot to dive behind the wheel of cheese.
35:16
Corie: And people coming from all over the world to go there.
35:19
Corie: And that's a big tourist attraction.
35:21
Corie: It's our next place where them Lego bull, not the bull yard anymore.
35:26
Corie: But them Lego bull and thing and them running from the bull who bull button and who that is a tourist attraction.
35:32
Corie: So you going in a place for bull to butt you.
35:35
Corie: Other countries lion.
35:37
Corie: I see a woman push her hand out the thing, meaning if she was gonna petty lion, but according to the wise words of Western Rollins, Wap, go on with the hand, and dice a tourist attraction.
35:46
Corie: So why we can't make what we have here into a tourist attraction?
35:49
Corie: We are the most unique Easter in the world.
35:51
Corie: Hidey stag so bunny all about, you know what I mean?
35:54
Corie: And fly kit all about and them kind of thing.
35:56
Corie: Still have a savannah, it's a fly kite, or they pave that to Carlos's job.
35:59
Corie: Return off Carlos Job.
36:01
Corie: So I feel like we have an opportunity to take the first August where we have emancipation, make that into a whole zone, make that into months of celebration because we deserve to celebrate what we've overcome.
36:14
Corie: And part of the celebration could be Napa, yeah, business people coming and talking and so on.
36:19
Corie: Because I mean, to be to be two or three generations away from being enslaved into being one of the biggest business people in the Caribbean, like Michael Leach, and we we should ask him to come and talk for the emancipation thing.
36:31
Corie: Like, what are you up to?
36:32
Corie: How you do this?
36:33
Corie: So we we create spaces like that.
36:36
Corie: Then you have the emancipation village, then you have the parade, then you have things like What Attila and them doing, you have the Camboley Riot reenactment as a play or musical and so on.
36:45
Corie: Because the second half where she had the musical, yeah, Stacey Sober's Ajibola.
36:51
Corie: I want to pronounce this girl's name right now because I think it's Melania.
36:54
Corie: She's the she's one of the I know her as one of the backup singers in Free Tongue Collective.
37:01
Corie: And I hope I have a name right.
37:03
Corie: At some point in time I will get people's name right on this podcast, right?
37:06
Corie: But clearly it's in gonna be today.
37:08
Corie: But they carried the show.
37:11
Corie: Carried the show.
37:12
Corie: The show, the show was an excellent show, excellent production.
37:15
Corie: So I feel like if we could make that into four or five weekends of events, because one of the things again I love about the Emancipation Village is that people just come out and people having a good time.
37:24
Corie: People look like they were looking forward to the camaraderie and what they will have on the day.
37:30
Corie: I like the references all of the islands.
37:32
Corie: I like the I like the idea that and again I learn in real time because that link between the Campbell riot reenactment and emancipation is there.
37:40
Corie: It was plain for everybody to see.
37:43
Corie: Now, I ain't gonna exactly tell you who is the link because you gotta go the woman playing what I mean.
37:49
Corie: I get invited for free, you know.
37:51
Corie: I get a little I get a little blind girl inside, so you gotta go and see it for yourself.
37:57
Corie: But I I would advise anybody and I I hope that um once I have word from her, I will make sure that people know when it happened again.
38:06
Corie: I will try my best to get Teller to come back and talk about it as well.
38:11
Corie: So we have everything we need in terms of tooling ourselves for the because an educational experience is not just entertaining and fun, but it's an educational experience that we could all take something away from and learn a little bit more about our history in as in as entertaining a way as possible because you play engaging and funny, is it is all the things.
38:36
Corie: So salute to everybody involved in that.
38:39
Corie: Everybody involved.
38:42
Corie: We have an opportunity to take these things and make the link between the Caribbean because another thing I see happening here, there's a Caribbean link is CPL cricket.
38:50
Corie: Well, West Indies like the winner test match against Pakistan who would have tourt.
38:55
Corie: And CPL cricket back one up over to over the weekend.
38:58
Corie: I see like TKR win the first game, bravo done start a boast already.
39:02
Corie: He don't waste time.
39:03
Corie: One game.
39:04
Corie: And we get on like that.
39:06
Corie: But hey, we don't forget to play the Kaiso about words in a way song about cricket about words too.
39:10
Corie: This had to be one of the wordiest calypso I ever hear.
39:14
Corie: One of the most difficult calypso I ever hear to sing, much less to write.
39:19
Corie: But the beauty of the pronunciations in this song, the pronunciation of the names in this song.
39:26
Corie: I mean, it's two extremes, you know.
39:29
Corie: When you have people who could make up and create their own dictionary, like suppliquent and things, and then you have people like this who could put this together, you know you're in the most beautiful country in the world.
39:37
Corie: This is a song by the name of Gavaska by a man by the name of Rit Later.
39:40
Corie: You know, Relator.
39:44
SPEAKER_10: A lovely day for cricket, blue skies and gentle breeze.
39:51
SPEAKER_10: The Indians are waiting now to play the West Indies.
39:57
SPEAKER_10: A signal from the umpire: the match is going to start.
40:03
SPEAKER_10: The cricketers come on the field, they all look very smart.
40:12
SPEAKER_10: Irapaliprasana, GG boy and watika, Krishna Purti and Vishnu mankind.
40:21
SPEAKER_10: Them boys to ramp with cricket on any kind of wicket to make the West and East team look so bad.
40:30
SPEAKER_10: We want this all kind of trouble.
40:36
SPEAKER_10: We want to make it a little bit.
43:40
SPEAKER_10: Take a little shame from all we face.
43:46
SPEAKER_10: We want to be cool before we freak it, and that's free.
44:28
Corie: So to think I so So to Sinkai so great Willard Harris great relator.
44:34
Corie: Let me tell you all about this, right?
44:35
Corie: You see what was my West Indies and Indian thing, only vexed with my last week when I talk about the people thing and all they put UCT in the thing and them kind of thing.
44:42
Corie: As I said last week, we gotta make a decision.
44:45
Corie: Is either the thing inclusive?
44:47
Corie: I have no problem with it being exclusive.
44:49
Corie: But let me tell you why I was talking about that.
44:50
Corie: It's so funny I talk about that last week because there's a certain amount of in the States they call it rage baiting in the politics, right?
44:59
Corie: But clearly here is a race baiting thing because it's it seems as though the goal is to again just like what Japo was here talking about with Hussey, there's a there's a goal of separating the Indo-Trinidad.
45:12
Corie: You can just say Indian, you can say Indo-Trinidad, the African and the Indian is a there's a concerted effort for we to dislike one another and for we to say things about one another.
45:23
Corie: So the newest effort is to normalize words that I grew up knowing as racial slaves, but now people saying they're comfortable.
45:32
Corie: Almost as if to bait me to come on the podcast here and say, Alright, if everybody's comfortable, let me start saying it.
45:36
Corie: Not I.
45:37
Corie: Not I, Sir Depig.
45:39
Corie: I good.
45:40
Corie: But that effort to do things always lead to things like this.
45:44
Corie: When you talk about Kaiso artists and so artists that I love, one of them is a man by the name of Benjamin.
45:49
Corie: People call him Benjamin.
45:52
Corie: Yay.
45:54
Corie: So he told you about AI data center long time.
45:56
Corie: This is from Benji and this is the exact problem I was talking about last week.
46:01
Corie: With the even even if you oppose the things, and I want to show my appreciation for people who disagree respectfully, because I cool with that.
46:09
Corie: But even if you disagree with UCT doing what it do, or you disagree with the uh emancip uh what you call them, the Indian High Commissioner having the event, the way you say things and the way you go about doing these things, they matter.
46:22
Corie: Because the the environment ripe for this kind of race baiting, and some people taking the bait, or some people taking debate, and this is the way some people genuinely feel because I like Benjamin a lot.
46:34
Corie: But much to my surprise, I go on Benjamin's Facebook page and I see slowly all caps, not have a common letter inside, slowly all African all Africans traditions are being infiltrated by Indians who believe it is their right to do so.
46:52
Corie: Exclamation mark and then you go in bracket, soaker and emancipation.
46:57
Corie: Now, this is where again going back only vexed with me where I say about UTT last week.
47:03
Corie: I do not understand this world where so soca in Benji's estimation is an African thing and it is exclusive to African and Indian trying to infiltrate it.
47:13
Corie: I do not understand emancipation.
47:16
Corie: If you I I alright, only say emancipation is a celebration of the freedom or emancipation of enslaved African people, one of the biggest travesties the world ever see.
47:27
Corie: And my question to us is we want to celebrate this by ourselves as among ourselves, or we want to invite other people to celebrate with us.
47:35
Corie: Because if my brother was enslaved and he get free, even if I wasn't enslaved, I can find things to celebrate in that.
47:42
Corie: But again, let's decide.
47:44
Corie: But so so so in brackets, he says, slowly all Africans' traditions are being infiltrated by Indians who believe it's it's their right to do so.
47:53
Corie: So emancipation.
47:54
Corie: This man typed this, which means he had time to delete this, right?
47:58
Corie: And if you ever type a message that was real harsh or aggressive, or you know go cause problems, you know you type it and you delete something.
48:07
Corie: Me know what Benji Benji delete here.
48:09
Corie: Are you frightened to see what he delete?
48:12
Corie: And we had it down to come to this.
48:13
Corie: He went on to say, wait a minute, they will say they were slaves to three exclamation marks.
48:19
Corie: No, you must be delete about the left madam exclamation mark.
48:23
Corie: I looking for the wisdom or the constructiveness or the supplient in this statement.
48:32
Corie: I I'm trying to understand what this statement is about.
48:35
Corie: What you're trying to achieve when you say something like this.
48:38
Corie: We in a country where you putting out music, right?
48:41
Corie: One of the songs you say is red, nah, nah, nah.
48:47
Corie: And we're dressing up in with red, white, and black as a Trini, a Trini, proud pro-trini.
48:53
Corie: Benji, are you saying that only Afro-trini is proud pro-trini?
48:59
Corie: I I don't know.
49:00
Corie: I feel like African as it gets to know, but I don't know that I could agree with that sentiment.
49:05
Corie: And when you make a statement like this and lost half your audience, and lost half your bookings, because I was just here with a gentleman by the name of Kess Diffent.
49:15
Corie: Salute to Kessani team.
49:16
Corie: Kess and Benji have a song there together.
49:18
Corie: Benji was on tour with Kes.
49:20
Corie: I am not sure, and I don't want to put nothing now because I want the best for Benji.
49:23
Corie: I like Benji a lot.
49:25
Corie: But if I am a soaker artist and I tour in places like Canada, I don't know that I am comfortable putting somebody who makes a statement like this on a stage in a country like Canada or in a place like Toronto, in a multi-racial, multi-ethnic, diverse space.
49:42
Corie: Now, in fairness to Benji, Benji came out very quickly, and he um he apologized, right?
49:49
Corie: But let me tell you something.
49:52
Corie: This life, this life is a is a is a funny space, huh?
49:55
Corie: I want to be fair to I don't want to be unfair to Ben Jai at all, right?
49:58
Corie: I don't have this thing loaded up.
50:01
Corie: So I hope I find the writing and I can play it.
50:03
Corie: Because as much as I talk about this, I want to say that Benji within within a day of releasing it, he did put out an apology.
50:13
Corie: And in fair, I want to I want to see if I could play the apology in fairness to Benji.
50:18
Corie: If I could if I could play it, I will.
50:21
Corie: But I see beyond him making a video apology because this was a tight post.
50:26
Corie: Let me let me see if I could play this thing here.
50:28
Corie: Oh, yeah, play this here.
50:29
SPEAKER_00: Yesterday I did a post and I realized the post offended a lot of people.
50:33
SPEAKER_00: That was not my intention.
50:36
SPEAKER_00: I would like to use this opportunity right now to apologize and move forward with love.
50:42
SPEAKER_00: I, Benji, have promoted love and unity, and I will continue to do so.
50:47
SPEAKER_00: It is not my intention to offend anyone.
50:50
SPEAKER_00: I am sorry.
50:52
Corie: Grand Rise.
50:52
Corie: It's not what a laugh, yeah.
50:54
Corie: What a laugh.
50:54
Corie: But you see this word intention.
50:59
Corie: Oh god, you didn't have to kick nobody when they're talking about.
51:02
Corie: What was the intention?
51:04
Corie: What was the intention?
51:05
Corie: And that is what I mean when I say we had to decide.
51:09
Corie: We had to decide if we want to be exclusive, we want to be, you know, we want to close ranks and and and be who we are amongst ourselves and exclude everybody else.
51:17
Corie: And we want everybody to exclude us, or we want to be part of something because Benji is singing big, big songs, big, big songs that will appeal to anybody.
51:26
Corie: I see me, I saw many people of who you know to be in the like Gideon Hanuman Singh make a statement.
51:35
Corie: Like plenty of people, people will be offended by this giant.
51:38
Corie: What about this?
51:39
Corie: You think you had to come and say you realize it offended.
51:42
Corie: What do you mean you realize when you while you're typing it, you could realize that?
51:45
Corie: From Tony Estrado, as Benji's manager, I would like to personally acknowledge the comments recently posted regarding the sensitive subject of racism.
51:53
Corie: It is sensitive.
51:54
Corie: This time in here is even more sensitive because people want this.
51:59
Corie: What they want it for is a different story, right?
52:01
Corie: Because it seems as though people using this for their own benefit.
52:04
Corie: But this is what it seems to be the order of the day, where you get you bait people into saying things like this, and you push these things as frontline stories, and then while you're doing that and people arguing about how you could turn a mobile unit into a permanent unit.
52:19
Corie: We have discussed the matter, and I can confirm that his subsequent apology is sincere and came from a genuine understanding that his words were inappropriate.
52:28
Corie: In is one word and appropriate is the next word.
52:30
Corie: We get our words here now.
52:32
Corie: He takes responsibility for his comments and as his manager, I stand behind the sincerity of his apology.
52:37
Corie: Benja is by no means racist.
52:40
SPEAKER_00: Grand Rise.
52:41
Corie: Let me tell you something.
52:44
Corie: You hear this a lot, right?
52:45
Corie: You hear this often.
52:47
Corie: Well, take it out to the Trinidad context, right?
52:51
Corie: When you see, let me talk soft, right?
52:53
Corie: Because visa and my wife is foreign and think she's in trouble.
52:56
Corie: But you see, when you see certain Caucasians in the States and you tell them they're racist, the first thing they say is, I have a black friend.
53:02
Corie: You know what I mean?
53:02
Corie: I have many black friends.
53:04
Corie: He's saying Benji is by no means racist.
53:08
Corie: Actually, the mother of his children is Isaiah.
53:12
Corie: Benji acknowledges a huge contribution made by our East Indian artists.
53:17
Corie: Example, Jit Samaroo, Johan Chakri, and Sundar Prabhor.
53:20
Corie: You couldn't get more, yeah.
53:22
Corie: Most eclectic mix I've heard.
53:23
Corie: Ricky Jai and many, many more.
53:25
Corie: Love and unity.
53:26
Corie: As Benjai says, he's a man is commute, plenty unity and plenty love and them kind of thing.
53:31
Corie: Again, I tell Nolia who listening to this.
53:34
Corie: Do not fall for this.
53:35
Corie: Do not be baited into this nonsense about.
53:38
Corie: And you know, I I fall for this a lot.
53:40
Corie: I appreciate all the people who tell me in the comments this week, right?
53:44
Corie: A lot of people made it a point to come to the comments and say, Corey, stop apologizing for the things you're saying.
53:51
Corie: You don't have to defend yourself to nobody.
53:53
Corie: You know what your podcasters do, and keep telling your story.
53:57
Corie: And I realize that I'd be careful how I say things too.
54:00
Corie: Maybe I and all how to watch my words because a lot of people said, hey boy, make sure you keep going.
54:06
Corie: Whenever you do those stop and thing.
54:08
Corie: I mean, may I plan to stop doing what I'm doing?
54:10
Corie: I just basically, when you when you when you when you sign on to these solo episodes, what you're really getting is a slice into my life and my thinking and them kind of thing.
54:18
Corie: I'm not too worried about right and wrong and correctness and accuracy and all them kind of things.
54:24
Corie: I will I'll be as I'll try to be as responsible as I can be.
54:28
Corie: But I understand that next week I go come and we could write all wrongs if we have things we say that was not enough or them kind of thing.
54:34
Corie: We could always fix that.
54:35
Corie: But I realize a lot of people came in the comments to say, boy, you know, those study people keep your head up, da da da da.
54:42
Corie: It was never really that for me, to be honest.
54:44
Corie: I I shared my experience, like looking at some of these comments and where you're doing sometimes could be difficult.
54:49
Corie: But it ain't gonna slow me down, you know.
54:51
Corie: I mean, though, don't don't worry about apartheid.
54:53
Corie: I hear.
54:55
Corie: But the reality is that when you look at you're putting yourself out there because what you're seeing is a is a snippet, even though I mean Kessel's really long, but usually you're with a guest a little longer than what you're seeing in the recording.
55:09
Corie: I remind people to have an extended version of Crooker on Patreon.
55:12
Corie: It is as funny as it gets, it's as funny as it gets, one of them episodes.
55:16
Corie: And if we if we follow what people saying online in the comments, in the political vlogging and thing, in the in the in the in the um the what do you call my partner boy who used to be Trini Driver, if you follow what he's saying, uh Rambles versus this one and NCAA.
55:37
Corie: Listen, you could get lost into thinking that that is what the real world is.
55:41
Corie: And I appreciate that that's what people were trying to tell me in the comments online last week because I've seen comments after episodes where me I want to leave home.
55:49
Corie: I don't want to go outside, I don't want to hear nobody.
55:51
Corie: Because you could start to believe that what you're seeing online and that kind of vitriol, and to tell you the truth, I've never seen anything I put out well.
56:01
Corie: More than 5-10% of the comments is negative, quote unquote.
56:06
Corie: But you can start to believe that I see real well and you don't want to face the real world.
56:09
Corie: But the truth is when I go out and I see people, 99 out of 100 times, people just come and say, Boy, hey, I like where you're doing.
56:17
Corie: Great job, boy, this was good, 99.
56:20
Corie: Every now and again, like this week, somebody met me.
56:23
Corie: She was in one of my classes actually a long, long time ago when I first started lecture.
56:27
Corie: Uh, I want to say Chanel, but I hope I ain't calling her name wrong.
56:30
Corie: Apologies in advance.
56:31
Corie: But we she met me outside Superfow and was telling me, hey, this is why I don't agree with what you say on the emancipation thing, you know, the budgets.
56:39
Corie: And she writes, she writes.
56:41
Corie: So even where people disagree, it's very unlikely that people come up to you and tell me the things that they might say online, and it's very easy to feel like it's the real world.
56:50
Corie: I saying all that to say, you don't go and believe that what you're seeing in this political space is the real world.
56:56
Corie: Don't let that make you believe that that's how African people feel about Indian people, or that's how Indian people feel about African people.
57:03
Corie: I I don't see this divisive time as what is real.
57:07
Corie: When you go out, the experience that you have during all these religious festivals or ethnic festivals or celebrations, the experience on your ground is not the same as what we see online.
57:17
Corie: But again, me ain't no philosopher, you know.
57:20
Corie: I don't mind come to play tune about words.
57:22
Corie: And any, it's some artists with any opportunity I get.
57:25
Corie: So Benji, Ole, listen, whoever is on Benji team, Ole, talk to Benji now.
57:29
Corie: Benji, you pay these things in ink.
57:31
Corie: You cannot delete things like that.
57:33
Corie: I I assume that while I understand the apology and think it's not directed to me, I'm not in a position to say whether I accept the apology or not.
57:41
Corie: The apology, the acceptance of the apology had to had to come from the people who you offended, not seemed to offend.
57:48
Corie: So I I hope you recover well and I hope you do well in your career and them kind of thing, but that was not wise at all as a public figure.
57:56
Corie: To say something like that.
57:57
Corie: That that was completely unwise.
58:00
Corie: But again, I hear to play song with Kaiso.
58:02
Corie: I come to celebrate that.
58:04
Corie: And it has some artists who I just take any opportunity to play the music, and Lord Blakey is one.
58:15
Corie: This is how many use words, right?
58:21
SPEAKER_11: I disguise and I call me self-fat Mustafa.
58:24
SPEAKER_11: Yes.
58:24
SPEAKER_11: When to a rap festival in Arabia, I disguise and I call me self-fat Mustafa.
58:30
SPEAKER_11: When to a rap festival in Arabia, for your better information if you want to know, I was thinking so there.
58:39
SPEAKER_11: But the language so I rode, but alone on the way home to me, feel I'm each.
59:12
SPEAKER_11: I was invited to that party.
59:15
SPEAKER_11: Lucky I meet an English lady, she that gave the right direction for me.
59:20
SPEAKER_11: She shut down right on left boy and go down straight.
59:26
SPEAKER_11: I walk in the road by myself alone.
59:29
SPEAKER_11: Repeating the arab June that alone was giving me some hit, be la I'm meeting.
59:41
SPEAKER_11: The menu kill up Well I find the place by the right direction.
59:59
SPEAKER_11: When I reach, they had a big function.
1:00:02
SPEAKER_11: I mean a chair, so I could take a seat and absolutely think that I want to eat.
1:00:09
SPEAKER_11: And in my school, I said I know that language before afternoon.
1:00:13
SPEAKER_11: When I hungry, but now don't know what to do.
1:00:16
SPEAKER_11: I don't need to be so many.
1:00:45
SPEAKER_11: I find a look in front of them.
1:00:48
SPEAKER_11: They give me a banana pan rap alone.
1:00:51
SPEAKER_11: Like a pan sitting this year like a big balloon, but it's big for me, it's open dumb.
1:00:57
SPEAKER_11: I've been a father roll up, I raped up, big body shit, I think what you bread.
1:01:03
SPEAKER_11: So I won't bother for me, boo that in.
1:01:06
SPEAKER_11: What's give me some eat be la harmony with you?
1:01:21
Corie: This is the sweetest laugh ever, guys.
1:01:23
Corie: We great Lord Blake.
1:01:24
Corie: You hear what they say now?
1:01:25
Corie: Keep fets and alcohol out of the bird sanctuary, towards says push it.
1:01:30
Corie: Now, this is something that I see recently, right?
1:01:35
Corie: And and maybe I I need to go to Bago more often, right?
1:01:38
Corie: Tobago is a place I feel like I could reset and just just just come again, right?
1:01:44
Corie: Just come again.
1:01:45
Corie: Tobago, you feel like you're you I know why it has happened in Tobago.
1:01:48
Corie: Like you see, what I say behind the bridge have an energy, Tobago have an energy for me, and I feel like to just come back.
1:01:53
Corie: But I remember as a child, I go in nylon, pool, they go in Bucharree and thing, and that was a vibe.
1:01:58
Corie: I was asking D.
1:01:59
Corie: Same thing, Dr.
1:02:00
Corie: D.
1:02:00
Corie: Vermon salute to them.
1:02:02
Corie: And you know, now I watch the bird sanctuary to not the bird sanctuary, the the the Booker Reef sound thing turn into a whole party boat as the treasure queen going out there, it's fat.
1:02:12
Corie: And at my age, I can't take too much noise.
1:02:15
Corie: The place had to be quiet for me.
1:02:17
Corie: So I was I was I was a little bit saddened to see they're talking about keeping alcohol and fat out of the bird sanctuary tours.
1:02:25
Corie: I remember that one point in time the bird sanctuary tour is just a boat rolling down the road, they tell you what species of birds they have.
1:02:31
Corie: You go at a certain time in the evening, you could see the scarlet Ibis returning, or you could see them leaving on our morning or whatsoever the toys.
1:02:38
Corie: They say the push to turn that turn that wetlands and other natural attractions into high-value eco-tourism products is facing growing concern among tourism operators and environmentalists, whether some of some new style boat tours are putting in the entertainment ahead of conservation.
1:02:56
Corie: The issue has surfaced around the bird sanctuary where operators introduce on-water dining and other experiences, but complaints have emerged about alcohol consumption, noise, litter, and visitor behavior.
1:03:09
Corie: Tourism operators are not calling for the end of these experiences.
1:03:13
Corie: Instead, they want clear rules governing what can and cannot happen inside the protected areas along with stronger enforcement.
1:03:22
Corie: I want to join the call on this because I feel like maybe it's because I get world too.
1:03:27
Corie: I guess at one point in time I would have find like, you know, it's vibes to be able to go on the bird sanctuary and make a you know turn it into a fet.
1:03:37
Corie: You know, there was a certain age in your life where anything that turns into a fet is a good thing, you know what I mean?
1:03:42
Corie: A fet is always a great thing.
1:03:45
Corie: But that being an old man myself and I can't take the old set of noise and thing.
1:03:50
Corie: I feel like if we need more spaces where we could have just good old genuine family experiences where people could come together and have a time.
1:03:59
Corie: And I miss that about the bird sanctuary about the I keep saying bird sanctuary, I tell you, lack of sleeping.
1:04:04
Corie: People had to come back home.
1:04:06
Corie: Whatever you do, they lay your wife and newborn and them kind of thing.
1:04:09
Corie: Pay for dung, don't be like me.
1:04:11
Corie: But Booker Reef and thing was such an experience, such a family experience.
1:04:15
Corie: I have so many memories from the Booker Reef.
1:04:17
Corie: So I mean, I guess the reef is not what it used to be.
1:04:20
Corie: But to see those tours turn into just a fet, we have a whole two, three months of fete already.
1:04:26
Corie: And if I call in for we to we have vibes, right?
1:04:28
Corie: We could have energy all year wrong.
1:04:30
Corie: The energy though always had to be extra bored, you know what I mean?
1:04:34
Corie: The bird sanctuary is an energy of its own, and I feel like we could keep it our way.
1:04:37
Corie: And I agree, I I like the fact that the tour operators are very measured in the call for this.
1:04:42
Corie: Because, like me, you're always looking for what's the business side of this.
1:04:47
Corie: The article in the guardian of a man selling chow.
1:04:49
Corie: You know, you want to encourage a certain like fertile ground for business.
1:04:56
Corie: You want them tours to be going off every day.
1:04:57
Corie: Like I when I travel, I see these things all the time where you have you have a site like the Eiffel Tower, where or let me use the Louvre as an example.
1:05:06
Corie: You could go to the Louvre and you pay to go there, but around there, it has a whole economy being built because the Louvre is a such a great museum.
1:05:14
Corie: Or last year or year before I went to a dolphin's game.
1:05:17
Corie: Outside the dolphin game, man selling dolphins jersey and and merch and paraphernalia, man selling juice, all kind of alcoholic beverages.
1:05:25
Corie: One man because the Uber could only carry you so close to the stadium.
1:05:28
Corie: He has a bike riding you, you could get two.
1:05:31
Corie: He's selling two.
1:05:32
Corie: I mean, no, they know how innovative you could get how much more.
1:05:35
Corie: So if if the bird sanctuary becomes something like that, then you have people selling chow.
1:05:40
Corie: You have people selling merch associated with the bird sanctuary.
1:05:43
Corie: You could sell scarlet IBC must you can't sell that.
1:05:46
Corie: Wherever you could sell, you make it into a complete experience where you have you have all kinds of forex problems in the country now where you might be able to travel and go places.
1:05:56
Corie: But I always remember I had a friend who was in UE and she went to get her V.
1:06:00
Corie: And when they ask you two, three questions, the woman, this is real thing, and they ask her.
1:06:05
Corie: You ever went to um Wildfold Trust?
1:06:07
Corie: She said no.
1:06:08
Corie: She said, You ever went to any pitch lake?
1:06:10
Corie: She said no.
1:06:10
Corie: She said, Well, alright, those studies are going.
1:06:12
Corie: Because she tells them she goes in in the States to sightsee.
1:06:15
Corie: They say, Well, see your own sights here.
1:06:17
Corie: You know what I mean?
1:06:18
Corie: See your own sights here.
1:06:19
Corie: Don't go in the states.
1:06:20
Corie: Look, look, look, look here for what you had to find first, and then you could go and sightsee abroad.
1:06:23
Corie: And it's a is a important contribution.
1:06:26
Corie: So I'm glad that the owners and the people who do any tours at the build century are conscious of this.
1:06:31
Corie: And I hope they continue to build it.
1:06:33
Corie: So if we haven't dining on the boat and you have your limit or your status govern what the experiences could be.
1:06:41
Corie: Because the conservation of the environment is an important thing.
1:06:44
Corie: Well, everywhere except the savannah, right?
1:06:45
Corie: So when you talk about business, it's a Kai so with word about business too, you know.
1:06:49
Corie: You know loud melody?
1:07:09
SPEAKER_07: Be we had the pedal as in tongue.
1:07:12
SPEAKER_07: A police nearly came down.
1:07:14
SPEAKER_07: We wear the pedal as in tongue.
1:07:16
SPEAKER_07: A police nearly came down.
1:07:18
SPEAKER_07: At the corner, George and Marine Square, I young man.
1:07:22
SPEAKER_07: Approach me dear when I think he was begging for charity.
1:07:25
SPEAKER_07: This is what the young man exposed to me.
1:07:28
SPEAKER_07: He exposed old boots, old shoes old for children.
1:07:33
SPEAKER_07: Needles, dimples, scissors, and share.
1:07:48
Corie: And I look at this money's guys with the music behind them sweet twin on the music and all talking.
1:08:17
SPEAKER_07: Women panties and powder puff.
1:08:22
SPEAKER_07: Rice bag, flower, bag, honey, and crate nail fights and shoot make a tax.
1:08:26
SPEAKER_07: When he asked me about it, I told him Mr.
1:08:30
SPEAKER_07: Rebus.
1:08:40
Corie: Well, you know these songs on YouTube.
1:08:41
Corie: If you want to hear the rest of these song, you go on YouTube and listen.
1:08:44
Corie: So you're talking about conservation of environment, the return of Carlos John.
1:08:47
Corie: I thought Carlos John done politics in a way.
1:08:50
Corie: When a man is out to pave the savannah, the man shall pave the savannah.
1:08:54
Corie: Carlos John is back.
1:08:56
Corie: Independence parade, right?
1:08:59
Corie: No, I tell only I'm monitoring this, right?
1:09:01
Corie: Because I've vexed with these people for years now, how they never used to go to the independence parade.
1:09:06
Corie: And here I thought that they had a problem.
1:09:10
Corie: I used to think they have a problem putting on Reddit, to be honest with you.
1:09:12
Corie: I said they don't want to come in Red along in PM and Balis here or something.
1:09:16
Corie: So they say they're not coming for the whole time the people was in power, they're not coming there, right?
1:09:21
Corie: For me, I realized the problem they have is with the Northstand and the Grand Stand.
1:09:25
Corie: Sometimes, sometimes they just be overthinking things, you know.
1:09:27
Corie: You know what I mean?
1:09:28
Corie: Talking more words, you'd be saying two more words in your head sometimes.
1:09:30
Corie: The problem that people really had is the location from Gail Alexander.
1:09:34
Corie: There will be a new location for the return of Independence Parade on the 31st of August.
1:09:39
Corie: This year's parade will be in a new northerly location in the Queen's Park Savannah.
1:09:45
Corie: Facing the President's house instead of the grandstand on the savannah's southerly side.
1:09:51
Corie: President Christine Gangalu will therefore be receiving Independence Day salute from her gallery.
1:09:56
Corie: Sorry, from the armed forces closer to the President's house.
1:10:00
Corie: This was confirmed yesterday by government officials as well as the United National Congress MP for Port of Spain North Center.
1:10:07
Corie: MP for Port of Spain, North Center, and I guess Shadow MP, Philip Alexander.
1:10:11
Corie: You mean something?
1:10:12
Corie: Defense Minister Wayne Serge has confirmed in June mid-year budget review that the parade launched launching celebrations of T uh TNT's 64th anniversary of independence.
1:10:25
Corie: It will be held.
1:10:26
Corie: But Serge's confirmation put the rest of speculation around the annual military and cultural showcase that it may not have been held.
1:10:34
Corie: There was no parade last year as TNT was under SOE.
1:10:38
Corie: Something changed.
1:10:40
Corie: And there was a threat to law enforcement, I guess, that changed judicial and state officials and so on.
1:10:44
Corie: Government said then the parade and state-sponsored fireworks were cut out.
1:10:48
Corie: What is about fireworks?
1:10:50
Corie: All this about is a parade.
1:10:51
Corie: I don't know if fireworks happened.
1:10:53
Corie: But they move it, they move it, they move it.
1:10:55
Corie: So I was wrong.
1:10:56
Corie: I eat my words.
1:10:58
Corie: I apologize.
1:10:59
Corie: I don't want to be wrong like hell all the time.
1:11:01
Corie: So they say somebody say query querying the work outside the Savannah.
1:11:08
Corie: People say it's aggregate going down.
1:11:10
Corie: So I'm not sure.
1:11:12
Corie: Because this government has a murky definition of mobile units, right?
1:11:16
Corie: So I don't know if this is a mobile parade stands going up or e-mobile or if they're pointing down and say spit tank.
1:11:22
Corie: I don't know what it has happened.
1:11:23
Corie: But I can tell you that when you're driving on the northern side of the savannah, construction is going on.
1:11:28
Corie: Pell mell.
1:11:28
Corie: We we headed towards the middle of August, and by the 31st, this is where it will be.
1:11:34
Corie: Dr.
1:11:34
Corie: Philip Alexander, the great honourable right Dr.
1:11:37
Corie: Philip, he's a doctor.
1:11:38
Corie: He says it will provide more shade.
1:11:43
Corie: Boy, listen, I my I I have barely more than a primary school education and all me.
1:11:47
Corie: I went to all kinds of school, but me and do well and much, so I don't understand what will create more shade on the northern side of this over.
1:11:54
Corie: And I don't know if they're billing back a grandstand.
1:11:56
Corie: Imagine this, right?
1:11:58
Corie: If you're listening to this for a long time, you know how much I complain over the years about the constant billing up and breaking down of the Northstand.
1:12:06
Corie: It was one point in time I had done a complete breakdown of breakdown is a bad word, but I do a complete breakdown of how much money it was costing to erect and this erect.
1:12:16
Corie: We can make up words.
1:12:19
Corie: The Northstand every single year.
1:12:22
Corie: Right?
1:12:22
Corie: This year the Northstand kinda, it's still kind of half erect like myself.
1:12:26
Corie: You know what I mean?
1:12:26
Corie: It looked like they take long part of the time, but they didn't take it down fully, you know what I mean?
1:12:30
Corie: It's a little semi.
1:12:31
Corie: But it didn't.
1:12:34
Corie: And I know I I I not I not I'm not understanding exactly how it gained in the way of the if you wanted to do the parade there, you don't do it there, right?
1:12:41
Corie: Let me put it like that.
1:12:42
Corie: But instead of now addressing the fact that we need either a permanent structure or whatever we need so that we not spend any money breaking down and billing back every year, instead of doing that, the solution seems to be to build another temporary you know, we had a build as supplement.
1:13:03
Corie: I don't understand, but I mean I glad they haven't the parade.
1:13:09
Corie: So I mean I I guess you could only complain about one thing at a time.
1:13:12
Corie: Like you could you could you could want you can want the safety and security of Eddie Hart.
1:13:21
Corie: Oh, you could want approvals granted for structures that go up in a savannah.
1:13:26
Corie: You can't want both apparently in this new time here, you know what I mean?
1:13:29
Corie: So I guess we're having a parade.
1:13:31
Corie: Salute to the paraders and and we're here, we're here.
1:13:36
Corie: I as again I'm an Instagram man at best, you know.
1:13:39
Corie: So me, me, I can't promise you I'm waking up early and going in no parade and them kind of thing.
1:13:43
Corie: But I ain't lying, they say I just want to go just to see how it's going because people say that when you see you had it between the North Stern and the Grand Stand, right?
1:13:54
Corie: I always ask David Roder this, I ask Crooker about it.
1:13:57
Corie: Everybody who ever wins a Calypso Monarch when they're to perform on that Savannah stage, I ask them about that.
1:14:01
Corie: All of them say the same thing.
1:14:03
Corie: You just at the time the breeze coming through, and you just can't hear the band on to Marshall talk about it too.
1:14:08
Corie: Because Marshall tried to crank up a motorbike in the last calypso monarch.
1:14:11
Corie: It's one of the greatest things I ever see.
1:14:13
Corie: The motorbike never starts here to run out.
1:14:15
Corie: But the Savannah this creates a problem for mass people.
1:14:18
Corie: I tell I spoke about it here.
1:14:20
Corie: That breeze could pick you up and carry you away, right?
1:14:22
Corie: So between me and you, why here is that when the breeze blows, the boo on them this gets loud too, you know.
1:14:27
Corie: They say the boo on them, you know what I mean?
1:14:28
Corie: This cavernous inside of the So what they do is they build a place where the boo on them go dissipate fast.
1:14:33
Corie: This is a sound issue, you know, and nothing to do with things.
1:14:37
Corie: So only don't go and boo the people, behave all yourself.
1:14:40
Corie: Only no, that is not allowed, you know what I mean?
1:14:42
Corie: To do the do the writing, you know what I mean?
1:14:44
Corie: To take the suppliquent approach.
1:14:46
Corie: I have a few more kaisos to play that is the wordiest calypsos of all time.
1:14:50
Corie: One of them, a matter of fact, two of them that I'm closing off this episode with is two of my favorite kaiso.
1:14:56
Corie: I will argue all the time that these are two of the best written kaiso I ever hear in my life.
1:15:02
Corie: One of them is by a man by the name of David Michael Rudd, who is celebrating now 40 years since he win everything.
1:15:09
Corie: He win everything.
1:15:10
Corie: He win Young King, Road Match, Panorama, Calypso Monarch.
1:15:14
Corie: You will never live to see that again.
1:15:16
Corie: If it's an Asoka Monarch, then he win that too.
1:15:18
Corie: And Bahia Girl was the tune along with um The Man with the Hammer.
1:15:23
Corie: Unbeatable, unstoppable that year, you know what I mean?
1:15:26
Corie: So I saw him put out a challenge on his Facebook telling the young producers now if they could go and um do a version of Bahia Girl, King David.
1:15:37
Corie: So encourage I find like you shouldn't encourage that, but you know what you're doing, he's a man no music.
1:15:42
Corie: So let me hear the interpretations they come up with.
1:15:45
Corie: But it had a tune around that time in the 80s to our rather sing that I want to play.
1:15:50
Corie: People who've been listening here a long time know it.
1:15:52
Corie: But one of the wordiest but best song I ever hear written.
1:17:47
SPEAKER_06: Oh when you see a hint of it and take it on.
1:18:01
Corie: I want somebody go and con some of the words.
1:18:03
Corie: Take them together and put it in charge, GPT for me, and let me know how much a word in them song.
1:18:07
Corie: I'm looking for a song that could outtop me and Kess right now.
1:18:10
Corie: That's what I'm looking for.
1:18:10
Corie: I want to see if all the songs in this episode add up the amount of words in them could pass me and Kess episode.
1:18:16
Corie: This again, to me, is one of the greatest kaiso they ever write.
1:18:20
Corie: And I don't know how this man writes this, and me don't know how he sings it.
1:18:24
Corie: I wanted to see him sing it in person and he do just that, you know it?
1:18:30
Corie: A matter of fact, all you think guys are verse and chorus in this, and it might be the wordiest song of all time.
1:18:35
Corie: Listen to music.
1:19:05
