- 0:21Speaker 2: Congratulations. Congratulations. It's a big deal. I saw you today.
- 0:25Speaker 2: You got your copy, Jasmine? I do. I ordered a copy, actually.
- 0:29Speaker 4: You did?
- 0:30Speaker 3: I have ordered a copy of every one of your books.
- 0:32Speaker 3: And you know what you have yet to do? Sign
- 0:34Speaker 3: any of them.
- 0:36Speaker 1: You know what I do? You know what I do?
- 0:38Speaker 2: You know what I do?
- 0:39Speaker 1: You know what I do?
- 0:40Speaker 3: We're talking about what you don't do. We're talking about
- 0:42Speaker 3: what you don't do. You can't say, yeah, I'm going
- 0:45Speaker 3: to sign it.
- 0:45Speaker 2: You know what?
- 0:46Speaker 1: I'm not going to let you turn me around.
- 0:47Speaker 2: It's a good day for me.
- 0:48Speaker 1: I ain't going to let you mess it up with
- 0:49Speaker 1: your little horrible attitude.
- 0:51Speaker 5: Okay, Moses.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Now, sometimes people get very upset with the things I say,
- 0:55Speaker 1: so we're going to give them an opportunity to express
- 0:56Speaker 1: themselves with our segment called F.U.D.L.
- 0:58Speaker 3: Hughley.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Won't you please welcome our F.U.D.L. Hughley correspondent, little Niecy James.
- 1:02Speaker 5: Hello, this is Niecy James, your F.U.D.L. Hughley correspondent. Our
- 1:07Speaker 5: first F.U.D.L. Hughley comment is from Facebook. Choir leader says, Dale,
- 1:12Speaker 5: I heard you say if a man spends a lot
- 1:14Speaker 5: of time in church, he's most likely gay. You said
- 1:17Speaker 5: that the black church is one of the most gayest
- 1:19Speaker 5: places on earth. Well, here's what I think. You talk
- 1:22Speaker 5: about this subject so much. You're either fighting the calling
- 1:25Speaker 5: of the Holy Spirit or trying to repress your own
- 1:28Speaker 5: homosexual feelings. You should go to church and face your feelings.
- 1:32Speaker 5: You either develop a new relationship with the Lord or
- 1:34Speaker 5: find yourself a new boyfriend. Our next Ducky DLHooly comment
- 1:39Speaker 5: comes from the DLHooly Show website. Second Amendment Protector says, DL,
- 1:44Speaker 5: I stumbled across your little Jigaboo radio station and I
- 1:47Speaker 5: heard you say that assault rifles should be banned.
- 1:50Speaker 4: Why are you panty-wearing, tree-hugging, vegan, uber-liberals always trying to
- 1:55Speaker 4: take away our rights to bear arms? Someone like you
- 1:58Speaker 4: should just shut up and be grateful to be permitted
- 2:00Speaker 4: to live free in this great country.
- 2:03Speaker 5: You could very well still be picking cotton instead of
- 2:05Speaker 5: telling jokes on the radio.
- 2:07Speaker 2: F * * * you, D.O. Hughley.
- 2:09Speaker 5: Today's last F.U.D.O. TV comment is from Instagram. D.O., I've
- 2:13Speaker 5: been a fan of yours for a long time. As
- 2:15Speaker 5: a matter of fact, The Brothers is my favorite movie.
- 2:17Speaker 6: Of all time.
- 2:19Speaker 5: Why won't you guys get together and make a Brothers 2?
- 2:21Speaker 5: They made sequels to The Best Man, Barbershop, Friday, and
- 2:25Speaker 5: Why Did I Get Married? There's even talk about another
- 2:28Speaker 5: Rush Hour and a Martin reboot. Why can all these
- 2:31Speaker 5: movies and shows get sequels, but you guys can't get
- 2:33Speaker 5: together and make another Brothers? D.L., I know it's your fault.
- 2:37Speaker 5: I heard you're more difficult to work with than money.
- 2:40Speaker 2: F * * * you, D.L. Hughley.
- 2:41Speaker 5: Well, that's it for this week. This has been Neetie James,
- 2:44Speaker 5: your F.U. Geo-Geekly correspondent. And until next week, bye!
- 2:49Speaker 1: That is going to wrap up the Hugh Leusso home mix.
- 2:51Speaker 1: I'm suspecting that sometime this week we'll have Freddie Jackson.
- 2:53Speaker 5: And Hugh Leusso mix, I'm sure.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Of course. We're going to honor him on a song
- 2:59Speaker 2: from when your mom and dad were still together.
- 3:02Speaker 1: We can't just have one song for Freddie Jackson.
- 3:04Speaker 2: It's a mix.
- 3:05Speaker 1: Let's do both.
- 3:06Speaker 2: He don't do all the tempo songs. Two of them tonight. Okay,
- 3:09Speaker 2: that's one. One player for 20 minutes? Come on, let's
- 3:13Speaker 2: take it nice and slow. You are a heartless dude, man.
- 3:16Speaker 2: You are a heartless dude.
- 3:17Speaker 5: That's why.
- 3:17Speaker 1: I just don't understand how you.
- 3:21Speaker 2: What are you doing? I was jamming in honor of
- 3:24Speaker 2: Freddie Jackson. Somebody's got to do it. His grave is
- 3:27Speaker 2: spinning around now. Janae. Somebody's got to do this.
- 3:32Speaker 1: All right, it's now time for the Human Being of
- 3:33Speaker 1: the Week.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Sorry, Freddie. So the Human Being of the Week is
- 3:39Speaker 2: John Leden.
- 3:41Speaker 3: What? As always, doing good stuff outside of performing and
- 3:44Speaker 3: singing and all the rest.
- 3:45Speaker 2: Like, that's not enough.
- 3:46Speaker 3: He also started an initiative to assist students with their
- 3:50Speaker 3: rent at his alma mater, which is the University of Pennsylvania,
- 3:53Speaker 3: but also at a couple of HBCUs, like.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Central State University of Pennsylvania. Wilberforce University.
- 4:02Speaker 3: And basically he talks about how he had to spend
- 4:05Speaker 3: a lot of time hustling and just doing whatever he
- 4:07Speaker 3: could just to pay the rent. So he's like, I
- 4:08Speaker 3: know what it feels like to be a student and
- 4:10Speaker 3: you're out there by yourself and you're in that position
- 4:12Speaker 3: and you don't know what you're going to do. And
- 4:13Speaker 3: so he has started this initiative so that he can
- 4:16Speaker 3: help pay for or at least assist them in covering
- 4:20Speaker 3: their rent for about 50 students.
- 4:21Speaker 2: That's pretty awesome. He's always doing some good stuff.
- 4:24Speaker 3: Always doing good stuff, for sure. So shout out to
- 4:26Speaker 3: John Legend, who's our Human being of the week, as
- 4:29Speaker 3: well as an egot.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Now it's time for what you need to know with
- 4:33Speaker 1: the one and only Sybil Wilkes.
- 4:36Speaker 6: It's Sybil Wilkes with what we need to know. Major
- 4:39Speaker 6: technology executives from OpenAI, Meta, Ananthropic, and Google face intense
- 4:44Speaker 6: questioning during a New York City Council meeting on artificial
- 4:48Speaker 6: intelligence safety. As lawmakers introduced 10 regulatory bills while tech
- 4:52Speaker 6: leaders admitted they cannot guarantee AI systems will always follow
- 4:56Speaker 6: safety guardrails. In California, former Vice President Kamala Harris and
- 5:00Speaker 6: Congressional Candidate Richard Pan are facing criticism after excluding select
- 5:05Speaker 6: news organizations, including the New York Times, from a Sacramento
- 5:08Speaker 6: campaign event on Friday. Student protests erupted at Cornell University
- 5:12Speaker 6: over the school's handling of a 2024 sexual assault case
- 5:16Speaker 6: involving the Chi Phi fraternity. Demonstrators painted protest graffiti on
- 5:20Speaker 6: campus buildings as organizers planned a week of action. And
- 5:24Speaker 6: in consumer health, the FDA announced a Class 2 recall
- 5:27Speaker 6: of over 122,000 cases of Gatorade across 37 states due
- 5:32Speaker 6: to undeclared food dyes that.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Could trigger allergic reactions.
- 5:36Speaker 6: I'm Sybil Wilkes. Be informed.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Be empowered.
- 5:40Speaker 1: Thank you so very kindly, Sybil Jasmine. Well, I guess
- 5:44Speaker 1: we're going to keep on keeping on.
- 5:45Speaker 2: It's the D.L.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Hughley Show coming right back at you.
- 5:47Speaker 2: It's the D.L.
- 5:47Speaker 5: Hughley Show.
