- 4:09Speaker 11: All right.
- 4:10Speaker 4: So Texas beat Michigan last night, seventy seven to forty one.
- 4:14Speaker 5: What's up to me?
- 4:16Speaker 12: Good morning, Envy, Josh Charlamage, how y'all doing this morning?
- 4:20Speaker 12: Good morning. So we start this morning with some relief
- 4:24Speaker 12: for TSA workers across the country. So, after more than
- 4:27Speaker 12: six weeks without pay during the Homeland security shut down,
- 4:30Speaker 12: many TSA agents they are now finally receiving back pay,
- 4:35Speaker 12: but some workers say the checks were shorter than what
- 4:38Speaker 12: they expected.
- 4:38Speaker 13: Let's listen this morning, I.
- 4:40Speaker 14: Did receive a deposit into my account, as many of
- 4:43Speaker 14: my colleagues have, but unfortunately it was not the full
- 4:47Speaker 14: amount ode so we're still waiting on to be made
- 4:52Speaker 14: whole with that. Officers have gone into debt, credit has
- 4:57Speaker 14: been shot, officers have been evicted, cars been repossessed. So
- 5:02Speaker 14: in order, you know, that money is needed in order
- 5:05Speaker 14: to get some sense of normalcy back to officers everyday lives.
- 5:11Speaker 8: Yes, TSA agents definitely were telling me that yesterday when
- 5:13Speaker 8: I was coming to the airport. They said they got
- 5:15Speaker 8: I think two thirds of their check or.
- 5:17Speaker 9: Something like that.
- 5:19Speaker 12: Ladies, and you know that's so said, Yeah, So officials
- 5:22Speaker 12: say that the rest of that back pay it should
- 5:24Speaker 12: come on the next pay cycle.
- 5:26Speaker 13: But there's still a bigger issue here.
- 5:27Speaker 12: There's still no clear answer yet on whether TSA workers
- 5:30Speaker 12: will keep getting paid if Homeland Security, if the Homeland
- 5:33Speaker 12: Security shut down will prevent them from getting you know,
- 5:37Speaker 12: continuous paychecks as this goes on. In the meantime, there
- 5:40Speaker 12: is some relief for travelers. Security lines that some airports
- 5:43Speaker 12: are starting to ease now that more TSA officers are
- 5:46Speaker 12: back at work after finally getting paid. But officials warned
- 5:50Speaker 12: that if regular paychecks don't continue, those long lines could
- 5:53Speaker 12: quickly return. And meanwhile, yeah, we are now on day
- 5:57Speaker 12: forty six of the Homeland seketecurity shut down. President Trump
- 6:01Speaker 12: he's now urging Congress to cut their resource short and
- 6:05Speaker 12: return to Washington and try and end this shutdown. Lawmakers,
- 6:09Speaker 12: they left on that two week recess without reaching a
- 6:12Speaker 12: deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security, and now
- 6:15Speaker 12: there is growing criticism on lawmakers on both sides after
- 6:19Speaker 12: Senator Lindsay Graham he was spotted at Disney World in
- 6:22Speaker 12: Florida and another senator was spotted at a casino in
- 6:25Speaker 12: Las Vegas. Now, while this is all happening, while thousands
- 6:28Speaker 12: of workers are still going without pay, and the main
- 6:31Speaker 12: sticking point again it remains immigration enforcement. The House and
- 6:36Speaker 12: Senate they still cannot agree on how to fund those
- 6:39Speaker 12: programs and that disagreement is holding everything up. So the
- 6:43Speaker 12: White House they're now calling on Congress to come back
- 6:45Speaker 12: and pass a funding bill. Here is White House Press
- 6:48Speaker 12: Secretary Caroline Lovitt.
- 6:50Speaker 3: He said that he'll host a big Easter dinner here
- 6:53Speaker 3: at the White House if Congress will come back and
- 6:55Speaker 3: fight the Democrats on this issue, which we should do,
- 6:58Speaker 3: because again Democrat Party is in the wrong here.
- 7:00Speaker 5: They have voted.
- 7:01Speaker 3: Seven times against funding the Department of Homeland Security, which
- 7:05Speaker 3: is completely egregious with everything we have going on in
- 7:08Speaker 3: the world, and these brave men and women who serve
- 7:11Speaker 3: DHS deserve to get their paychecks. President wants to see
- 7:14Speaker 3: that happen, and he wants Congress to come back to.
- 7:16Speaker 5: Get it done.
- 7:17Speaker 8: I think it's political malpractice that lawmakers still get paychecks. Meanwhile,
- 7:21Speaker 8: everyday working class people who make all world go around
- 7:24Speaker 8: are not.
- 7:26Speaker 12: For sure for sure, And Democrats are pushing back on
- 7:28Speaker 12: what Lovett said this morning. They argue that they've been
- 7:30Speaker 12: at the negotiating table seven times and it was Republicans
- 7:34Speaker 12: who refuse to offer any comments and solutions on how
- 7:37Speaker 12: to reign in Ice. So we will continue to watch that,
- 7:41Speaker 12: and coming up at seven a case that is now
- 7:43Speaker 12: exposing what some are calling a major loophole in the
- 7:47Speaker 12: housing law. We'll talk about it and get into it
- 7:49Speaker 12: at seven.
- 7:50Speaker 4: I was going to also ask you or more and
- 7:51Speaker 4: more tsa work is going back to work now, because
- 7:53Speaker 4: I know people have been traveling the last couple days
- 7:55Speaker 4: and they said it hasn't been as crazy as expected.
- 7:58Speaker 8: Friday, a lot of them took off. Yesterday they a
- 8:00Speaker 8: lot of them were back.
- 8:01Speaker 15: They were back.
- 8:01Speaker 8: I got out flew yesterday and I was talking to
- 8:03Speaker 8: the test agents, so they were telling me that came up.
- 8:06Speaker 13: Yes, thanks, yes, Charlotte, thank you.
- 8:08Speaker 12: A lot of them are back, but still it doesn't
- 8:10Speaker 12: more than five hundred have quit. I think it's like
- 8:12Speaker 12: five hundred and twelve something like that. They've now quit
- 8:15Speaker 12: the agency and so I mean with work, with pay
- 8:18Speaker 12: coming in, they're hoping that more will come back. And
- 8:21Speaker 12: ice agents they said that we'll be there until they
- 8:24Speaker 12: can get this all figured out.
- 8:25Speaker 9: So all right, just don't quit the start a podcast.
- 8:27Speaker 9: I'm telling you right now.
- 8:28Speaker 8: I know your job may not seem so stable, but
- 8:30Speaker 8: I promise you it's more stable than podcasting.
- 8:33Speaker 4: All right, everybody else, get it off your chest. Eight
- 8:35Speaker 4: hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you
- 8:38Speaker 4: need the Vent phone line to wide open, call us
- 8:39Speaker 4: up right now.
- 8:40Speaker 7: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, quack.
- 8:44Speaker 15: This is your time to get it off your chest.
- 8:46Speaker 15: Eight hundred five eight five one five one. We want
- 8:48Speaker 15: to hear from you on the Breakfast Club.
- 8:51Speaker 16: Hello, who's this Alicia?
- 8:53Speaker 7: Alisha what's up with morning?
- 8:55Speaker 17: Hey, good morning, just I'm calling from Indianna. Like last
- 9:00Speaker 17: week I was talking about them or whatever. So I
- 9:03Speaker 17: used to work at TSA in Arizona and I also
- 9:07Speaker 17: still have a home there that still works there, and
- 9:11Speaker 17: it's been.
- 9:11Speaker 18: Very special stressful.
- 9:13Speaker 17: On her down there, and I feel like a lot of.
- 9:16Speaker 18: The times that we don't talk about the mental part
- 9:19Speaker 18: of it all. They're not getting paid. You expect them
- 9:21Speaker 18: to come to work and.
- 9:23Speaker 17: Then just be happy, like, because you know, b ATSA, you.
- 9:27Speaker 18: Do have to have a certain level of.
- 9:29Speaker 17: Professional about us, be okay to do what you're doing.
- 9:33Speaker 18: And she's like, it's hard to want to come in
- 9:35Speaker 18: here to smile. And actually we actually liked our joy
- 9:39Speaker 18: at TSA, but this she didn't even have time to
- 9:42Speaker 18: recoup from the last set down to this shut down
- 9:44Speaker 18: to even do anything.
- 9:46Speaker 8: I don't think people will realize that sixty nine percent
- 9:50Speaker 8: of uh, you know, Americans live paycheck to paycheck, like literally,
- 9:54Speaker 8: like so if you missed one paycheck, man, your whole life.
- 9:57Speaker 18: Is up in Yeah, And she's like, I don't know
- 10:00Speaker 18: how many times that I can call my bills company,
- 10:03Speaker 18: you know, credit cards and cardinal and tell them like, oh,
- 10:06Speaker 18: the government is shut down, but I can't pay you guys,
- 10:09Speaker 18: But eventually I'll be able to. Like she was like,
- 10:11Speaker 18: I don't even know what to tell them because I
- 10:13Speaker 18: don't even have a date on when I might.
- 10:15Speaker 7: Have some money.
- 10:16Speaker 8: And it's not like people care right, Like if I
- 10:19Speaker 8: was a landlord, I would have I mean, that's it's
- 10:22Speaker 8: easy to say, man, you know, you should give people
- 10:23Speaker 8: some relief with the landlord got bills that he got to.
- 10:26Speaker 4: Pay check, Yeah, mortgage, you know, I mean, and then
- 10:30Speaker 4: your child care wherever your kids or the babysit that
- 10:32Speaker 4: they got to pay their bills, and the school you
- 10:34Speaker 4: gotta pay right And she was.
- 10:36Speaker 18: Like she was like her apartment. When she go in
- 10:40Speaker 18: there to tell them, like I still have received the check,
- 10:42Speaker 18: she's like they're starting to side eye. Mean, like, girl,
- 10:44Speaker 18: we gonna have to put you out if you don't
- 10:46Speaker 18: come up with something. Oh, She's like, I don't know
- 10:49Speaker 18: what to do. And then last last shut down, she
- 10:52Speaker 18: did a lot of overtime. They didn't even compensate her
- 10:54Speaker 18: for all the overtime she did.
- 10:56Speaker 9: Wow, that's crazy. That's horrible, man.
- 10:58Speaker 7: And then they still expect, you know, to tea say
- 11:00Speaker 7: members to come.
- 11:00Speaker 4: To work and be happy and be polite, like they
- 11:03Speaker 4: yeah off, like they get paid in weeks.
- 11:05Speaker 5: Like is that why you happy? Is that why you quit?
- 11:08Speaker 11: No?
- 11:09Speaker 18: I quit for other reasons, but I left it there
- 11:12Speaker 18: though I did love it, and but Sky Harbor is very,
- 11:15Speaker 18: very busy.
- 11:16Speaker 17: And then she.
- 11:16Speaker 18: Said a lot of people are frustrated because Ice is
- 11:20Speaker 18: just standing around not doing nothing, and y'all expect us
- 11:23Speaker 18: the Chinese people coming in and not doing nothing on
- 11:25Speaker 18: their phones.
- 11:26Speaker 17: Stuff that we're not allowed to do.
- 11:28Speaker 5: But then they're.
- 11:29Speaker 18: Getting paid while we're just standing here not being paid, but.
- 11:31Speaker 17: We're expected to do a certain level of performance.
- 11:34Speaker 15: That's crazy.
- 11:35Speaker 8: I thought about that too when the Ice, when Ice
- 11:37Speaker 8: just were asking for pik Alicia, because I'm like, just
- 11:39Speaker 8: ain't never ask hold on you for pictures one of them?

- 17:14Speaker 5: Good morning.
- 17:14Speaker 22: Don't call me twin in this room just.
- 17:21Speaker 15: Then let me tell you.
- 17:23Speaker 5: Yeah, So good morning, y'all.
- 17:25Speaker 22: So yesterday Tyler Perry's team called me, uh there, you
- 17:29Speaker 22: guys know, Tyler Perry was trying to get the money
- 17:31Speaker 22: to the TSA workers and Atlanta Harshel Jackson International Airport, right,
- 17:34Speaker 22: So on Friday they figured out a way to do it.
- 17:38Speaker 22: They basically gave out one thousand dollars gift cards. He
- 17:41Speaker 22: gave up to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to
- 17:43Speaker 22: the TSA workers there, right, But then there was this.
- 17:46Speaker 22: It was a local in Atlanta that did a story
- 17:48Speaker 22: that that the money was then taken back by whoever
- 17:52Speaker 22: supervisor whatever at the airport and that the TSA workers
- 17:55Speaker 22: were not allowed to have the money because of that
- 17:57Speaker 22: whole conversation about can you gift Can you not remember
- 18:00Speaker 22: he had issues when he went there or did his
- 18:02Speaker 22: team when they're trying to give out cash? All right,
- 18:04Speaker 22: So they caught yesterday because they're like, we want to
- 18:06Speaker 22: clear this up. No one has contacted us to give
- 18:09Speaker 22: back any gift cards whatsoever. And they wanted to make
- 18:12Speaker 22: it clear that they went through all the proper protocols
- 18:14Speaker 22: to make sure that these TSA workers would get their pay.
- 18:17Speaker 22: And they wanted to put this out because they wanted
- 18:19Speaker 22: the TSA workers to know that if anyone there is
- 18:21Speaker 22: telling them that they should have to give back any money,
- 18:24Speaker 22: they need to speak to supervisors because it should be
- 18:27Speaker 22: there to have because of the protocols that they went through.
- 18:29Speaker 22: So Tyler Perry and his team, they worked with the
- 18:32Speaker 22: Assistant Federal Security Director, which the local in Atlanta was
- 18:35Speaker 22: saying that this team is the person that was issued
- 18:39Speaker 22: in a statement saying that they had to give the
- 18:40Speaker 22: money back, But they're saying, no, we worked directly with
- 18:42Speaker 22: this team, the assistant Federal Security Director with TSA. They
- 18:46Speaker 22: went through all the proper protocols. That person actually cleared
- 18:49Speaker 22: the gift cards so that they were able to give
- 18:51Speaker 22: them out, and they took it through legal before they
- 18:53Speaker 22: give anything out, because they wanted to make sure that
- 18:55Speaker 22: if they promised that this would happen, and the TSA
- 18:57Speaker 22: agents knew this was happening, they'd be able to get
- 18:59Speaker 22: their money.
- 19:00Speaker 5: Cause they've been through enough.
- 19:00Speaker 8: Now lead those TSA workers alone, let them TSA workers eat. Okay,
- 19:04Speaker 8: if somebody wants to get him a gift, let them
- 19:06Speaker 8: receive it. And furthermore, if I'm a TSA work and
- 19:09Speaker 8: somebody said you got to give back this thousand dollars
- 19:12Speaker 8: gift card, will come get it. God damn it, come
- 19:14Speaker 8: get it, You come get it? How many you come
- 19:16Speaker 8: take it from me?
- 19:16Speaker 4: How many CBS and Walgreens did Tyler Perry have to
- 19:19Speaker 4: go to to get two hundred and fifty thousand?
- 19:22Speaker 5: But I love the fact that that they figured it out.
- 19:25Speaker 22: Yes, I just told his assistant was actually the person
- 19:28Speaker 22: that worked directly with the Federal Security Director or the
- 19:31Speaker 22: assistants Federal Security Director because they were just trying to
- 19:34Speaker 22: figure out how can we get this done?
- 19:35Speaker 5: Because we want to help them and.
- 19:36Speaker 9: Drop on the clues.
- 19:37Speaker 8: Body let them TSA agents eat, like lead them alone.
- 19:42Speaker 9: Like is it that serious?
- 19:43Speaker 22: Are you're bothering the people for I think it's just
- 19:45Speaker 22: rules and regulations around things.
- 19:46Speaker 5: Because they're you know, they're employees.
- 19:48Speaker 4: They usually do it because I don't want to feel
- 19:49Speaker 4: like they're paying so people could get through.
- 19:50Speaker 7: Cayler Perry don't fly commercial anyway.
- 19:52Speaker 8: If somebody did that for the ice agents that were
- 19:55Speaker 8: working at the airports, nobody would care.
- 19:58Speaker 9: I promise you. If somebody did this same.
- 20:00Speaker 8: Exact thing to the ice stags that were working at
- 20:02Speaker 8: the airport, nobody would care.
- 20:03Speaker 9: It wouldn't even be an issue.
- 20:04Speaker 4: Yeah, well this should't matter, Like like Charlamagne said, then
- 20:07Speaker 4: people should have their money. Like Tyler Perry did it
- 20:09Speaker 4: the proper way. He gave it to the manager. The
- 20:10Speaker 4: manager distributed the money. It should would have been.
- 20:14Speaker 8: I don't know how he did it, but what if
- 20:16Speaker 8: he talked to the manager, got all the employees' names
- 20:18Speaker 8: and gave it to him, you know, off hours.
- 20:20Speaker 22: I don't even Yeah, still because even with a flight attendant,
- 20:23Speaker 22: like when I used to fly, we weren't allowed to
- 20:25Speaker 22: accept tips or anything.
- 20:26Speaker 5: That's stupid.
- 20:27Speaker 4: I mean, that's stupid that the flight attendant get your food,
- 20:30Speaker 4: get your your beverages the whole flight.
- 20:32Speaker 7: You can't.
- 20:34Speaker 9: Take it, don't wear that's not a good tip.
- 20:37Speaker 5: That's crazy. He's so mad a pump. Yeah, minds your business.
- 20:42Speaker 6: Yes, I have given attendance flight attendants tips.
- 20:46Speaker 5: Some of them do take them. Flight attendant right now,
- 20:49Speaker 5: thank you, No, thank you, I appreciate that. No, shut up.
- 20:55Speaker 7: More Spirit its brown brown.
- 20:59Speaker 15: The Spirit.
- 21:04Speaker 5: Read is a good airline is great.
- 21:08Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 21:09Speaker 22: If they come and recruit you like they used to
- 21:12Speaker 22: come on the flights and recruit the girls to go
- 21:14Speaker 22: over the thank you, I appreciate you.
- 21:15Speaker 19: So.
- 21:15Speaker 22: And and being a flight attendant is a very tough job, okay,
- 21:19Speaker 22: So just all right, I'm not a fly.
- 21:22Speaker 5: I'm I'm talking to him right, okay.
- 21:25Speaker 22: And then the airport is easy, baby, okay, hang up. Yeah,
- 21:37Speaker 22: I mean that's that was it. I was trying to
- 21:38Speaker 22: move on, but then they started grabbing all the things off.
- 21:43Speaker 22: But yeah, I just wanted to try to know and
- 21:44Speaker 22: and and I will say if there's any updates there
- 21:47Speaker 22: because they did reach back out to that security director's
- 21:49Speaker 22: team just to make sure that nothing is happening in
- 21:52Speaker 22: the airport that is stopping the c s A workers
- 21:54Speaker 22: from getting that money. But that we know up up
- 21:55Speaker 22: until this morning, everything is fine. No one's reached back
- 21:58Speaker 22: out to Tyler Perry and the team.
- 21:59Speaker 5: Now moving on.
- 22:01Speaker 22: So Brandy, I told you guys that she would be
- 22:03Speaker 22: receiving her star on the Hollywood Walker Fame.
- 22:06Speaker 9: I did not see ray J get to speak.
- 22:13Speaker 5: You don't. Isn't he on Twito Like he's somewhere like
- 22:15Speaker 5: performing from But.
- 22:16Speaker 22: Ray J, remember about a week ago when we were
- 22:19Speaker 22: in here talking about the fact that she would get
- 22:21Speaker 22: the Hollywood Walker Fame. Ray Jet posted that video and
- 22:23Speaker 22: in that video he mentioned that he may or may
- 22:25Speaker 22: not be on the start. Y'all want to take a
- 22:27Speaker 22: listen to that apology? You didn't get to play it
- 22:29Speaker 22: last week.

- 22:39Speaker 24: who has giving me my opportunities to become successful in
- 22:42Speaker 24: every aspect from acting to singing, to TV, and the

- 22:54Speaker 24: to Brandy and Brandy only, and to Brandy's brand. Some
- 22:58Speaker 24: of the things I said was absolutely concerning, disrespectful and heartless,
- 23:05Speaker 24: and I feel bad.
- 23:06Speaker 23: I feel bad that I tied you into it.
- 23:08Speaker 24: No matter if I'm banned from from coming on tour
- 23:11Speaker 24: or going to the Hollywood Walk of Fame, they're all done.
- 23:15Speaker 23: That's fine.

- 23:47Speaker 5: I'm from Macomb, Mississippi.
- 23:49Speaker 25: I came to Hollywood as a young girl, in the
- 23:51Speaker 25: seventh grade. Back then, I was just a little girl
- 23:54Speaker 25: with a big dream. Seeing the stars on the Walk
- 23:56Speaker 25: of Fame lit something in me. It made me believe,
- 23:59Speaker 25: It made me a firm over my own life. I'm
- 24:02Speaker 25: going to sing my way onto one.
- 24:03Speaker 5: Of these stars, and I did. A star on the.
- 24:06Speaker 25: Walk of Fame is a definition of legacy. It doesn't
- 24:09Speaker 25: just celebrate your success, It cements your story. It is
- 24:12Speaker 25: a symbol that says you didn't just arrive, you endured.
- 24:16Speaker 5: You didn't just dream.
- 24:18Speaker 13: You became.
- 24:19Speaker 25: To every mentor collaborator, creative and believer who poured into

- 24:25Speaker 25: star because purpose may be personal, but destiny is never
- 24:29Speaker 25: meant to be carried along. And most of all, I
- 24:32Speaker 25: stand as living proof that what you speak over your
- 24:34Speaker 25: life with faith, consistency and belief can one day meet
- 24:37Speaker 25: you in reality.
- 24:41Speaker 5: I did not noticed she was from a Koma Sippy.
- 24:44Speaker 22: I think I always thought that they were from La Yeah,
- 24:48Speaker 22: Limbert Park, Yes, when Mosha was from I did not
- 24:51Speaker 22: know well. As we wrap, Ray also shared some words
- 24:55Speaker 22: there too, and this was their first time actually meeting.

- 25:00Speaker 26: Hi, Brandy, nice to meet you. I'm so so honored
- 25:06Speaker 26: to be here. I was gonna use the two minutes
- 25:09Speaker 26: to just sing, have you ever loved somebody so much?
- 25:11Speaker 26: And makes you cry? But I will I won't do
- 25:14Speaker 26: that in front of you or to you, guys. It
- 25:16Speaker 26: was really Mosha that made me understand what was possible.
- 25:19Speaker 26: It was the first show that I'd ever seen told
- 25:22Speaker 26: from an ordinary black teenage girls point of view. Brandy
- 25:26Speaker 26: made Molsha someone I wanted to befriend, the girl I
- 25:30Speaker 26: wanted to be. At a time when beauty standards on
- 25:33Speaker 26: television looked nothing like us, Brandy was the standard.
- 25:37Speaker 5: Without Brandy as.
- 25:38Speaker 26: Moesha, there's no Parkers, there's no girlfriends, there's no Insecure,
- 25:43Speaker 26: and honestly, without Mosha, there's no me as a writer.

- 26:10Speaker 22: And Brandy said that she's always admired I was told
- 26:13Speaker 22: Brandy's always admired Issa, and because he's always talks about
- 26:16Speaker 22: how Brandy was the inspiration for Akua Black Girl, which
- 26:19Speaker 22: then got her to insecure. That's why they connected the
- 26:21Speaker 22: doctor baby Face spoke to when he talked about Whitney

- 28:41Speaker 5: like Charlmagne stopped playing with us, all right.
- 28:44Speaker 9: And I forgot to tell you. So they got all day, okay,
- 28:48Speaker 9: game cops all day over here.
- 28:49Speaker 7: Alright, what's up to me?
- 28:52Speaker 13: Good morning, and bj Charlamagne heights steling this morning. Good morning.
- 28:56Speaker 13: So we start this hour in Washington, d C.
- 28:59Speaker 12: Where a housing case is getting national attention, highlighting with
- 29:03Speaker 12: some say is a major loophole in squatters tenants rights.
- 29:07Speaker 13: So it started with a thirty two day Airbnb booking
- 29:10Speaker 13: a DC homeowner.
- 29:11Speaker 12: She rented her property to a woman who she said
- 29:14Speaker 12: needed a place to stay after a fire, but when
- 29:16Speaker 12: the stay ended, the woman refused to leave, and because
- 29:20Speaker 12: she had been there more than thirty days, she was
- 29:22Speaker 12: able to claim tenant rights and although there was no
- 29:25Speaker 12: traditional lease, so what followed was a month's long battle,
- 29:28Speaker 12: a legal battle.
- 29:30Speaker 13: The homeowner says she was locked out of her own
- 29:32Speaker 13: home for.
- 29:32Speaker 12: Nearly a year while paying the mortgage, the legal fees,
- 29:36Speaker 12: the bills, all while someone else was living in her home.
- 29:38Speaker 12: And the homeowner says that she changed the logs, she
- 29:41Speaker 12: moved her belongings in, and even put utilities in her name.
- 29:45Speaker 13: So the squatter did all that, and after nearly a
- 29:48Speaker 13: year in court.
- 29:48Speaker 12: A judge finally ruled that the woman is not a
- 29:51Speaker 12: legal tenant and ordered her to be removed from the home.
- 29:55Speaker 12: But this week the story is taking a very different turn.
- 29:58Speaker 12: So the woman who was removed is now suing the
- 30:00Speaker 12: homeowner for five hundred thousand dollars. She claims a list
- 30:07Speaker 12: of her luxury items, including her her handbags, her Gucci handbags,
- 30:12Speaker 12: her jewelry, her clothing, electronics, her cash, all of her
- 30:16Speaker 12: personal belongings.
- 30:17Speaker 13: Went missing when she was put out the home. Let's
- 30:19Speaker 13: listen to the homeowner.
- 30:20Speaker 27: I did look at that list, and I did not
- 30:22Speaker 27: see any of those things in that property.
- 30:24Speaker 5: She looked like she and and took what she wanted to.
- 30:26Speaker 27: Take, and when we came back the next day, we
- 30:29Speaker 27: ended up cleaning up the rest of it and she
- 30:31Speaker 27: never came back.
- 30:32Speaker 9: Why was this legal to begin with? Like, nothing about
- 30:34Speaker 9: this sounds right.
- 30:35Speaker 4: A lot of squatter's rights, it doesn't sound right to
- 30:38Speaker 4: me at all. I mean, you know, if a squatter
- 30:40Speaker 4: stays in your house for a long period of time,
- 30:41Speaker 4: they can almost get ownership of your property. No, squatter's
- 30:46Speaker 4: rights is ridiculous and it's crazy. It gets more right
- 30:48Speaker 4: to the people that actually squat in the property than
- 30:50Speaker 4: the people that actually own it.
- 30:53Speaker 11: All.
- 30:53Speaker 15: I don't know.
- 30:55Speaker 12: Yeah, well, investigator to say, this case is getting attention
- 30:58Speaker 12: because court records show the woman and she though she
- 31:00Speaker 12: has a pattern of renting properties, staying long enough to
- 31:03Speaker 12: clean residency kind of like you were saying envy, and
- 31:06Speaker 12: then staying for months without paying while the cases moved
- 31:09Speaker 12: through the courts, and she says that she was the one, though,
- 31:12Speaker 12: who was being harassed, especially after homeowners they turned off
- 31:15Speaker 12: the utilities. Let's listen to the squatter.
- 31:18Speaker 27: So it's not like, the harassment has not been for months.
- 31:21Speaker 27: So when you're saying harassment and you're saying, why haven't
- 31:23Speaker 27: I leaved prior, it seems as if this is an
- 31:26Speaker 27: issue that has been.
- 31:27Speaker 13: Going on for months, which it has not.
- 31:28Speaker 5: This has been like a now it's been a month.
- 31:30Speaker 27: So the harassment didn't start until mid November. So the
- 31:34Speaker 27: harassment the sign the cutting the power off that was November. Well,
- 31:38Speaker 27: the powers cut off in October first, but then they
- 31:41Speaker 27: turned the power back on, but then they turned it
- 31:42Speaker 27: back off in November.
- 31:45Speaker 5: Complain about my power. That's so audiatous, it's crazy.
- 31:49Speaker 15: That is different.
- 31:51Speaker 8: Why not just use your energy to save some money
- 31:53Speaker 8: and buy your own place. And I would want for
- 31:55Speaker 8: you to buy your own place and then rent it
- 31:56Speaker 8: out to somebody and have them squad so you can
- 31:58Speaker 8: know how it feels.
- 32:00Speaker 5: But you know, that's what squads do. That like a
- 32:01Speaker 5: lot of squatters, that's what they do for a living.
- 32:03Speaker 4: They find these properties, they stay there, they know they
- 32:06Speaker 4: could probably stay there for two three years. They kick
- 32:08Speaker 4: them out, then they find a new residence and they
- 32:09Speaker 4: do it for two three years. They still have a job,
- 32:11Speaker 4: they got a call, they have nice things, but they
- 32:13Speaker 4: know how to f the system, which is crazy.
- 32:15Speaker 9: A career squad is crazy, ye, a serial squad and.
- 32:19Speaker 6: As legal everywhere in America, like you can do. That's
- 32:22Speaker 6: different laws.
- 32:23Speaker 13: Okay, yes exactly. Different state have different laws. But clearly
- 32:27Speaker 13: in Washington, d C.
- 32:29Speaker 12: This lady was able to stay there for almost a year,
- 32:32Speaker 12: I want to say, And so this case is now highlighting.
- 32:35Speaker 12: You know, what many property owners say is that major
- 32:38Speaker 12: LOOPO in the law where if someone stays in your
- 32:40Speaker 12: home for more than thirty days they can claim tenant rights.
- 32:43Speaker 12: They can take it for months, even close to a
- 32:45Speaker 12: year before you can even remove them. And so cases
- 32:48Speaker 12: like this, several states they're changing their laws to make
- 32:51Speaker 12: it easier for property owners to remove squatters. But the
- 32:53Speaker 12: woman at the center of this case is expected back
- 32:56Speaker 12: in court next week.
- 32:57Speaker 13: So we will follow up.
- 32:58Speaker 7: And a lot of people what they do is they
- 33:00Speaker 7: look for older residents.
- 33:01Speaker 4: So let's say your mom and dad pass away and
- 33:03Speaker 4: you live in another state, so they know that your
- 33:05Speaker 4: mom and dad's no more there, so they move into
- 33:07Speaker 4: your house. Now, when you try and finally get finished
- 33:09Speaker 4: grieving and figure out what you want to do, you
- 33:11Speaker 4: come to that house.
- 33:12Speaker 5: You can come out what's up.
- 33:13Speaker 7: You can't kick them out.
- 33:14Speaker 5: It's crazy.
- 33:15Speaker 13: That's their house now, pretty much.
- 33:17Speaker 9: That's wild.
- 33:20Speaker 13: Yeah, it's very very wild, Jess.
- 33:23Speaker 12: And really quickly before we go, I want to give
- 33:25Speaker 12: another warning for those who are student loans because there's
- 33:28Speaker 12: a lot of changes being made that we don't know about,
- 33:31Speaker 12: and so really quickly, the Saved repayment plan is being
- 33:34Speaker 12: shut down. It was blocked by a court and that
- 33:37Speaker 12: means about seven seven point five million people who signed
- 33:40Speaker 12: up for that plan will now have to choose a
- 33:42Speaker 12: new repayment plan. So borrowers, you have until ninety days
- 33:46Speaker 12: starting July first, to pick a new plan. What you
- 33:49Speaker 12: could pay every month it will range from about one
- 33:52Speaker 12: percent to fifteen percent of your income depending on the
- 33:54Speaker 12: plan you choose. But here's the important part that they're
- 33:57Speaker 12: not saying out loud. If you don't choose a plan,
- 34:00Speaker 12: the government can automatically place you into a plan and
- 34:03Speaker 12: that could come with higher monthly payments.
- 34:05Speaker 13: So you want to pay attention to that. You want
- 34:07Speaker 13: to go to studentaid.
- 34:08Speaker 12: Dot gov or call your loan servicer and make sure
- 34:11Speaker 12: that you know what plan you're in and what your
- 34:14Speaker 12: new plant payment plan will be before you are automatically
- 34:17Speaker 12: moved by July first.
- 34:18Speaker 13: All right, there you have it, and.
- 34:21Speaker 12: That is your front page news. I'm me Me Brown,
- 34:23Speaker 12: follow me, I Me Me Brown TV. And for more
- 34:25Speaker 12: stories follow the Black Information Network.
- 34:27Speaker 15: Thank you, me and me, thank you, thank you.
- 34:29Speaker 4: All right now, when we come back, we have wrestler
- 34:32Speaker 4: Cody Roads joining us this morning.
- 34:33Speaker 7: We're gonna talk to him next and don't move. It's
- 34:35Speaker 7: to Breakfast Club. Good morning.
- 34:36Speaker 4: Warning everybody is dj n V just hilarious, Charlamagne to God.
- 34:40Speaker 4: We are the Breakfast Club Lawn the Roses here as well.
- 34:42Speaker 4: We got a special guest in the buildings we do,
- 34:45Speaker 4: Cody Rolls.
- 34:45Speaker 9: Welcome sir, Thank you.
- 34:47Speaker 10: I clapped for myself.
- 34:50Speaker 15: Thank you guys for having me. How you feeling.
- 34:52Speaker 28: I'm good from WWE? Yeah, no, I brought the WW title.
- 34:56Speaker 28: I see, I see the big one. So I like
- 34:57Speaker 28: to start from the beginning. So what God, you into wrestling?
- 35:00Speaker 28: And I know you're gonna say your dad, But besides
- 35:02Speaker 28: your dad, what got you interested with? You said I
- 35:04Speaker 28: can do this and I want to do this.
- 35:06Speaker 2: Well, I mean there's obviously the osmosis in terms of,
- 35:09Speaker 2: like you said, the familial connection to it. But really
- 35:12Speaker 2: what got me into it because he was my dad
- 35:14Speaker 2: was much older. I didn't see him in wrestling. His
- 35:17Speaker 2: prime was going to those shows, the WCW shows when
- 35:20Speaker 2: I was a kid, and this is these are markets
- 35:22Speaker 2: like Savannah, Georgia, and you know, making and Chattanooga, uh,
- 35:27Speaker 2: and those crowds. There's a wrestling named Brad Armstrong. He
- 35:30Speaker 2: used to just do a move, an arm drag, basic
- 35:32Speaker 2: wrestling move. But I remember watching it and hearing the
- 35:36Speaker 2: reaction and there was just this like deafening pop for
- 35:39Speaker 2: this physical, simple, basic stuff. And that's where I fell
- 35:44Speaker 2: in love with it. It was more almost hearing it
- 35:46Speaker 2: than seeing it, just because of the interaction. That's the
- 35:49Speaker 2: cool thing about pro wrestling is we're very reliant on
- 35:52Speaker 2: our audience and it's fun to be in New York
- 35:53Speaker 2: because the audience in New York is can be tricky.
- 35:56Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 35:57Speaker 2: So yeah, no, that was that was the moment that
- 35:59Speaker 2: that arm drag is actually the one where I thought
- 36:00Speaker 2: I could do this.
- 36:02Speaker 5: Yeah, And did you know you wanted to be a
- 36:03Speaker 5: professional wrestler.
- 36:05Speaker 10: I mean, so this is funny. My dad he played
- 36:09Speaker 10: like baseball.
- 36:10Speaker 2: He was one of those classic sixty seventies where they
- 36:13Speaker 2: played every sport and somehow were great at all of them,
- 36:16Speaker 2: you know all that, but none of them in my
- 36:19Speaker 2: family actually did real folk style, greco freestyle, what you
- 36:23Speaker 2: would see in the Olympics, that type of wrestling. So
- 36:26Speaker 2: I plugged into that really early in my career. Because
- 36:30Speaker 2: this is gonna sound silly now, but I didn't want
- 36:33Speaker 2: if anyone ever thought that my dad was, you know,
- 36:35Speaker 2: like this phony TV wrestler. I always wanted to have
- 36:37Speaker 2: this little edge, like well, you know, I got this
- 36:40Speaker 2: and that that was the thing I loved the most.
- 36:43Speaker 2: But I knew that I wanted to go into pro
- 36:45Speaker 2: wrestling more the storytelling at a very very young age.
- 36:50Speaker 2: My fear when I was seventeen eighteen, I'm getting ready
- 36:52Speaker 2: to pop out and go go for it was I
- 36:55Speaker 2: wasn't big enough, right, you watched.
- 36:58Speaker 4: This, I say that I was gonna say, most wrestles
- 36:59Speaker 4: when you see him may a gigantic yeah, and it
- 37:02Speaker 4: looks like they're roided up, very big, huge, next poise,
- 37:05Speaker 4: very strong. But I didn't see that from you.
- 37:08Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 37:08Speaker 2: No, I today, I'm lucky. It's a light heavyweight game.
- 37:12Speaker 2: I'm I'm one of them. Just pretty two degrees sometimes
- 37:16Speaker 2: one of the bigger guys now, which is not the
- 37:18Speaker 2: case with my WrestleMania opponent, which is Randy Orton, which
- 37:21Speaker 2: is one of the more old school types. Yes, yeah,
- 37:24Speaker 2: six six, two hundred and eighty legitimate pounds, giant neck,
- 37:29Speaker 2: giant like yeah no, but that was my fear and
- 37:32Speaker 2: it wasn't until I saw, you know, macho man. Randy
- 37:35Speaker 2: Savage is a great example of somebody who wasn't big,
- 37:38Speaker 2: but he made himself big. It's the outly you know,
- 37:41Speaker 2: the the outfits, the pageantry, but also how he moved
- 37:45Speaker 2: in the ring. He gave himself this larger than life approaching. Again,
- 37:48Speaker 2: this is storytelling. It can be whatever we want. So I,
- 37:52Speaker 2: after I got over that fear, uh, I was able.
- 37:54Speaker 10: To just jump right in.
- 37:56Speaker 5: How difficult was it to make it professional?
- 37:58Speaker 4: What would the steps to actually get into professional rest
- 38:02Speaker 4: and opposed sure those markets, because we hear all the
- 38:04Speaker 4: time that it was like, it's just a lucky star.
- 38:07Speaker 4: One day somebody puts you on in the crowd of
- 38:09Speaker 4: screaming name, how difficult was it for you to get it?
- 38:11Speaker 15: To get to that?
- 38:11Speaker 2: Well, so for me, getting in is not difficult at all,
- 38:15Speaker 2: is the easiest thing ever and I have the absolute
- 38:19Speaker 2: respect and love for guys who are out on the
- 38:21Speaker 2: independent scene hustling and hustling and hustling because for me
- 38:25Speaker 2: it was a last name and it was out of
- 38:27Speaker 2: respect for my dad.
- 38:28Speaker 10: We'll give them, We'll give him a job.
- 38:31Speaker 2: The issue then becomes, that's easy getting in the door,
- 38:35Speaker 2: But if you're filling those boots, or people think you're
- 38:39Speaker 2: filling those boots, or you're in that shadow on my
- 38:40Speaker 2: brother too. This is two generations now who have made
- 38:44Speaker 2: a big impact in WWE. That's where it became very,
- 38:48Speaker 2: very difficult.
- 38:49Speaker 15: So it's a trade off.
- 38:50Speaker 2: You get in the door, but also you're living up
- 38:52Speaker 2: to an incredibly well revered professional wrestler whose contributions still
- 38:59Speaker 2: are happening in the industry. That's where it became very hard.
- 39:01Speaker 2: And I would say I'm a fairly slow learner. I
- 39:04Speaker 2: didn't pop off in a way where I could feel like, hey,
- 39:09Speaker 2: they're into this, they're these are my people like ah
- 39:12Speaker 2: that like I didn't get that until mid thirties, and
- 39:17Speaker 2: I now it's the elusive connection that Johns, you know,
- 39:20Speaker 2: always taught us about and preached to me. Because I
- 39:23Speaker 2: drove John around for a few years. It just came
- 39:26Speaker 2: a little later for me, but it's still still there.
- 39:29Speaker 22: So hanging on, how did you keep yourself together, like mentally,
- 39:33Speaker 22: like you know, motivating yourself when things didn't pop off
- 39:36Speaker 22: right away, because you have like the shadow of like
- 39:37Speaker 22: your family and you're you know, expecting all this stuff.
- 39:42Speaker 2: I wish I could say I handle things really maturely
- 39:44Speaker 2: and diplomatically. But if I started at WW when I
- 39:47Speaker 2: was twenty years old.
- 39:48Speaker 20: So.
- 39:50Speaker 2: I was a baby when I started there, and up
- 39:52Speaker 2: until thirty, they treated me like I was a baby still,
- 39:55Speaker 2: even though I'd grown and I'd wrestled triple h and
- 39:58Speaker 2: I'd been in the ring with the Undertaker, I'd taking this.
- 40:00Speaker 2: I drove John around, I drove Randy around, I'd learned,
- 40:04Speaker 2: but I was still treated a little bit as a kid.
- 40:05Speaker 10: So I walked, I walked and did what we would
- 40:09Speaker 10: say is like reverse order.
- 40:10Speaker 2: I went did independent wrestling. I went to New Japan
- 40:13Speaker 2: Pro Wrestling. Me and my buddy started our own alternative
- 40:17Speaker 2: wrestling promotion that's actually made it to linear cable.
- 40:21Speaker 10: And then it was time to come home.
- 40:23Speaker 2: And then coming home I got treated very differently. So
- 40:25Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the advice I would give,
- 40:27Speaker 2: because I think most of the times I say, hey,
- 40:28Speaker 2: you stand in there, you weather the storm. But this
- 40:31Speaker 2: was a case where I just took my ball somewhere else,
- 40:34Speaker 2: but was able to really sharpen my skills and see
- 40:37Speaker 2: what's out there and bring it back.
- 40:38Speaker 7: I couldn't.
- 40:39Speaker 2: You got to find yourself, so I can't really hate
- 40:41Speaker 2: on them for bad booking or bad There was that, sure,
- 40:44Speaker 2: but I hadn't found who I was, and I think
- 40:47Speaker 2: when I came back, I at least had an idea.
- 40:49Speaker 10: I think this is me. I think you'll like this.
- 40:51Speaker 8: You know.
- 40:52Speaker 7: You know, I was going to ask, you know, I
- 40:53Speaker 7: was reading an article.
- 40:54Speaker 4: I said, WWE's Rosta is older than ever, Right, this
- 40:57Speaker 4: is the oldest scene right season they say season? Yeah,
- 41:00Speaker 4: they said, moost of them are over thirty five in
- 41:03Speaker 4: India forties, but usually it's a lot younger.
- 41:06Speaker 7: Why do you think that is, Well, it goes.
- 41:08Speaker 2: In phases, so in like the golden eighties it was
- 41:11Speaker 2: we used to joke wrestler prime for the man was
- 41:14Speaker 2: thirty five to forty two. That's in the golden eighties,
- 41:16Speaker 2: and that's because they needed all that experience psychologically, they
- 41:21Speaker 2: worked they did this town to town. Live crowds are everything.
- 41:25Speaker 2: How do you work with a live crowd? How do
- 41:27Speaker 2: you involve them with this? We're not doing this just
- 41:29Speaker 2: for each other, and we're not doing this just for
- 41:31Speaker 2: the camera.
- 41:31Speaker 10: How are they involved?
- 41:33Speaker 2: That now has cycled back because a few years ago
- 41:37Speaker 2: they brought in it was what I'd say is like
- 41:39Speaker 2: all freshmen on a varsity team. There's this famous picture
- 41:42Speaker 2: of me and CM Punk and Matt Cardona, and we're
- 41:45Speaker 2: all babies, and we had won them big titles, but
- 41:49Speaker 2: we didn't have a clue really at that point.
- 41:52Speaker 10: We didn't have that experience.
- 41:53Speaker 2: So now I think you're getting back into where you've
- 41:55Speaker 2: got I know exactly who we're talking about here, Roman, Me, Punk, Randy,
- 42:00Speaker 2: the main events of WrestleMania. I just like to say
- 42:04Speaker 2: it's a very experienced crew and I I I.
- 42:06Speaker 10: Do feel I'm in my prime. I I really do.
- 42:09Speaker 2: It could be over tomorrow because I've been doing this
- 42:11Speaker 2: in fall and now since I was twenty, But uh,
- 42:13Speaker 2: I feel like I'm there, and I think w B
- 42:15Speaker 2: Shawn Michaels particular shout out to Sean. What they're doing
- 42:19Speaker 2: in n XT is making it so that when it's time.

- 42:51Speaker 2: Ricky Saints, They're all gonna make their way up here.
- 42:54Speaker 10: It'll it'll cycle back to where it's too young. So
- 42:57Speaker 10: let it be. Let it be a little older, a
- 42:59Speaker 10: little old.
- 43:00Speaker 7: Your wife is was a wrestler too, Yeah, so how
- 43:02Speaker 7: was that when y'all get an argument?
- 43:04Speaker 15: No, but my wife is just.
- 43:07Speaker 10: My wife.
- 43:08Speaker 2: She trained at n x T, which was the performance
- 43:11Speaker 2: you know, where we were developing wrestlers, and then they
- 43:14Speaker 2: at the time, they were down a ring announcer and
- 43:16Speaker 2: they hey, can you it's one of those can you
- 43:18Speaker 2: do this? I could, and she came up and she
- 43:20Speaker 2: was the ring announcer, and and that's where we met,
- 43:23Speaker 2: and then she she went over to Japan. I remember,
- 43:25Speaker 2: poor girl, she wrestled three matches with her collar bone
- 43:28Speaker 2: totally broken. I never need to I never needed to
- 43:32Speaker 2: see my wife wrestle or know that she's a wrestler
- 43:36Speaker 2: to know she's just a very tough woman. She's from Detroit,
- 43:41Speaker 2: She's a very herd. Just the way she looks at
- 43:43Speaker 2: people when she's in a bad mood, Brandy has got
- 43:46Speaker 2: a different spirit than I have. You know how people
- 43:49Speaker 2: are confrontational, non confrontational. I'm a non confrontational person. My
- 43:53Speaker 2: wife's a confrontational. So you run, So I'm I'm there
- 43:56Speaker 2: to I'm on the side.
- 43:57Speaker 10: I'm a Jason.
- 43:58Speaker 5: Let me say she's a black, so I know she'd
- 44:00Speaker 5: be like the hell up out of here.
- 44:03Speaker 10: She's uh.
- 44:06Speaker 2: The thing she's done in her her career and in
- 44:08Speaker 2: her life where she has said basically we're up, we're leaving,
- 44:12Speaker 2: or if I was down, Nope, we're not having that.
- 44:15Speaker 2: Just really, I tell people all the time, like it's
- 44:18Speaker 2: all hers. I don't want to get like super emotional
- 44:20Speaker 2: about it, but like, it's so every everything we have
- 44:23Speaker 2: is oh damn got me. It's is hers because she's
- 44:29Speaker 2: she put a lot over here so I could go
- 44:32Speaker 2: and make these moves that I made.
- 44:33Speaker 5: So yeah, the street talk about that. How did that
- 44:41Speaker 5: even come about?
- 44:41Speaker 19: You?
- 44:41Speaker 5: In the trailer? Everybody was excited about it?
- 44:43Speaker 10: Can I tell you a crazy story about getting I
- 44:47Speaker 10: didn't think so.
- 44:50Speaker 2: Roman Reigns has been denounced as a kuma, and I thought, oh, man,
- 44:53Speaker 2: dang man, that's awesome. Good for him, but also like
- 44:57Speaker 2: dang man, like I was really happy for him. I
- 45:00Speaker 2: didn't think they'd be interested in anybody else from the
- 45:03Speaker 2: wrestling space. But I got a call saying would you
- 45:06Speaker 2: come to a legendary and meet the producer and meet
- 45:08Speaker 2: and talk with a producer. I thought it was just
- 45:10Speaker 2: a general meeting.
- 45:11Speaker 10: Really sincerely thought it was a general meeting, and I
- 45:14Speaker 10: thought best case scenario. They're like, could you consult?
- 45:17Speaker 2: Because I played this game and I love this game
- 45:20Speaker 2: and I had a buddy who played competitively in Japan.
- 45:23Speaker 2: I'm like, man, I know enough, maybe it'll have me
- 45:25Speaker 2: as a consultant. If not, great meeting, happy to go.
- 45:28Speaker 2: I get there and the director's on zoom he's in Australia.
- 45:34Speaker 2: Producers across from me. I'm just thinking, okay, cool, we're
- 45:37Speaker 2: gonna talk Street Fighter Talk nineteen ninety four, you know,
- 45:40Speaker 2: And then they said, give us a second.
- 45:42Speaker 10: The head of the studio wants to come down here. Okay,
- 45:44Speaker 10: that's cool. I like meeting people, you know, this is
- 45:47Speaker 10: no pressure meeting for me.
- 45:49Speaker 2: And she comes in and just like all the aura
- 45:52Speaker 2: and swagger you could imagine or just and she kind
- 45:55Speaker 2: of the whole room is there.
- 45:56Speaker 10: And she just hits it.
- 45:57Speaker 2: She's like, hey, you know, I know your schedules what
- 46:00Speaker 2: it is, but we really like you for the role
- 46:02Speaker 2: of Gyle and uh, we think he'd be incredible. The
- 46:05Speaker 2: dates are gonna be what the dates are. These guys
- 46:07Speaker 2: are gonna give you the information. But I'm just happy
- 46:09Speaker 2: to meet you. This is gonna be awesome.
- 46:10Speaker 15: She leaves.
- 46:11Speaker 10: Wow, So I'm like, what, like, what are we doing here?
- 46:16Speaker 11: Like is this real?
- 46:17Speaker 2: And I'm you know, I'm also like lying through my
- 46:19Speaker 2: teeth a little bit because the guys asked me.
- 46:20Speaker 10: He's like, you think w W will be okay with that?
- 46:22Speaker 11: Yeah?
- 46:25Speaker 10: Yeah, Champ Champ's gonna leave for him and they're gonna
- 46:28Speaker 10: be great, and uh, thank gosh. You know, w w's
- 46:31Speaker 10: president Nick.
- 46:31Speaker 2: Con knew, he knew the power of understanding movie and
- 46:34Speaker 2: he knows he knows, he understands.
- 46:36Speaker 10: So it wasn't in Triple H understood.
- 46:38Speaker 11: It was.
- 46:38Speaker 2: It was an easy sell. But after I left, there
- 46:42Speaker 2: was a it was like it was all set up.
- 46:45Speaker 2: There's another wrestler in Hollywood. I'll just leave him nameless.
- 46:49Speaker 2: Uh who called me as I'm leaving and he goes, hey,
- 46:53Speaker 2: how'd that meeting go? He knew he knew was going
- 46:56Speaker 2: about to go down, so I told him for the future,
- 46:57Speaker 2: I go, you can tell me.
- 46:59Speaker 9: I'm not gonna wait, you can tell me.
- 47:00Speaker 2: But it was so much fun and that's uh that
- 47:03Speaker 2: set Katao Sakrai the director, incredible story.
- 47:06Speaker 10: Uh he's telling so much fan service towards the game.
- 47:09Speaker 2: Uh Noah, Kalina and Kog, the three leads, you got
- 47:12Speaker 2: your your Reu, your Ken, and your chun Ley. They're
- 47:15Speaker 2: just they're the hard and soul of this thing. And
- 47:17Speaker 2: then Orville Peck who's doing Vega, and then uh, you
- 47:20Speaker 2: know Andrew Schultz, and it's just this like wild collection
- 47:24Speaker 2: around them. It really they gave us a lot of
- 47:26Speaker 2: room to play and have fun and find out, you know,
- 47:29Speaker 2: in my case, like who's guile? Where is guy fitting
- 47:31Speaker 2: all this? Yeah, I'm very very excited about it. Yeah,
- 47:35Speaker 2: it's uh. When I put the when I put it
- 47:39Speaker 2: on the flat top my costumes, you know, it's not much.
- 47:44Speaker 2: It's the the tak top, it's the fatigues, it's the boots,
- 47:47Speaker 2: the tattoo and that. And when I put that on,
- 47:51Speaker 2: I felt if it's a good performance because I felt
- 47:54Speaker 2: like I was him. I didn't even like seeing the
- 47:56Speaker 2: double with it. I'm like, nah, just me and the
- 47:59Speaker 2: only one with this here.
- 48:00Speaker 11: You know.
- 48:00Speaker 10: Yeah, it's cool though, the movie's gonna be great.
- 48:03Speaker 2: And then I think in probably the next few weeks
- 48:06Speaker 2: was probably some more about the movie coming out.
- 48:08Speaker 5: So congratulations, thank you, thank you.
- 48:11Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 48:11Speaker 4: I WrestleMania forty two was coming up April eighteenth. Yeah,
- 48:14Speaker 4: all right, so what should the people expect?
- 48:16Speaker 10: Oh, my gosh, the Allegiant Stadium. Have you been to
- 48:18Speaker 10: Allegian Stadium?
- 48:19Speaker 7: No, I haven't. Now, I've been in Vegas so many times,
- 48:21Speaker 7: haven't been there.
- 48:22Speaker 2: Go they called the death Star really wow, Yeah, because
- 48:25Speaker 2: it's just a giant black out in the middle of
- 48:27Speaker 2: the Desert. I guess it gives like the doom and
- 48:30Speaker 2: gloom of the Death Star from Star Wars, but really cool,
- 48:33Speaker 2: great place to watch anything. But this year, if you
- 48:36Speaker 2: went to last year, it was John Cena versus Me
- 48:38Speaker 2: and Las Vegas, you had a triple threat with Seth
- 48:40Speaker 2: Roman and Punk. This year you've got the main event,
- 48:42Speaker 2: which is first time Punk seeing Punk versus Roman rains
- 48:45Speaker 2: and the main event on the other night, myself versus
- 48:47Speaker 2: Randy Jordan, which is twenty almost twenty years of real
- 48:51Speaker 2: equity between each other. And I think wrestling is always
- 48:54Speaker 2: best when it's real. If I know that sounds silly,
- 48:57Speaker 2: but that's a hard one. It's very real me because
- 49:00Speaker 2: this is the guy who brought me into the fold
- 49:03Speaker 2: to be part of his faction. This is a guy
- 49:06Speaker 2: who I drove from town to town, who I watched
- 49:08Speaker 2: him in a WrestleMania main event against Triple H in
- 49:11Speaker 2: two thousand and nine. He was genuinely my mentor in
- 49:15Speaker 2: the industry. So to stand across the ring from each
- 49:17Speaker 2: other in the biggest match that we do of the year,
- 49:20Speaker 2: knowing like, hey, I need you to see me.
- 49:22Speaker 10: Like I'm not a kid anymore.
- 49:23Speaker 15: It's back to that.
- 49:25Speaker 2: That makes for great TV and that great great matches,
- 49:29Speaker 2: and I think I look forward to that moment. But
- 49:33Speaker 2: WrestleMania in general, you're gonna see because you mentioned the
- 49:35Speaker 2: old The good thing about it is you get to
- 49:37Speaker 2: see the new two, you get to see the young two.
- 49:39Speaker 2: We're reloading. It's very clear we're reloading, and that's great.
- 49:42Speaker 2: It puts the fire on me and I like that.
- 49:45Speaker 2: But it's the biggest thing we do. It's the best
- 49:47Speaker 2: thing we do. If you're ever gonna step in, if
- 49:49Speaker 2: you don't like wrestling, if you kind of used to
- 49:51Speaker 2: like it, going to a WrestleMania can tell you if
- 49:54Speaker 2: this is going to be for you, and I think.
- 49:56Speaker 15: It's for everybody.
- 49:57Speaker 7: How do you keep you a sanity?
- 49:58Speaker 11: Right?
- 49:58Speaker 4: You were talking about your family, for your kids, but
- 50:01Speaker 4: you need some family time as well. And wrestling fans
- 50:04Speaker 4: sometimes are crazy. I remember the one story I can't
- 50:07Speaker 4: remember the wrestler they chased him, followed him and he
- 50:09Speaker 4: had to pull over and just sign an autography. I was, so,
- 50:15Speaker 4: how do you deal with that with crazy fans when
- 50:17Speaker 4: you're just trying to get some family time?
- 50:19Speaker 2: And I remember Triple H said, you know there early
- 50:22Speaker 2: isn't a work life balance with this? And I think
- 50:25Speaker 2: maybe the answer to that is, and this probably won't
- 50:28Speaker 2: sound the way I mean it sounds, but I bring
- 50:30Speaker 2: them into the work, right.
- 50:33Speaker 10: My daughter's got two trips coming up. She's going to the.
- 50:35Speaker 2: Beach and then she's going to WrestleMania. The one she's
- 50:38Speaker 2: most excited about, shockingly, is going to WrestleMania.
- 50:41Speaker 15: She's four, but she.
- 50:43Speaker 2: Was there when I picked her up in so Far
- 50:45Speaker 2: the first stadium show I ever Remaine invented. And now
- 50:48Speaker 2: I said hi to her at Allegiance that last year,
- 50:50Speaker 2: and she's looking forward to what are we going to
- 50:51Speaker 2: do this year?
- 50:52Speaker 10: I'm gonna be in the front row. What are we
- 50:53Speaker 10: doing this year?
- 50:54Speaker 2: I try to bring them around it, and with my children,
- 50:58Speaker 2: I try to explain the importance of the fan. That
- 51:02Speaker 2: also means every type of fan. So there's the diehard
- 51:06Speaker 2: fans who you know you've touched and you're lucky as
- 51:10Speaker 2: all can.
- 51:10Speaker 11: Me to have.
- 51:10Speaker 2: There's also the collectors, and there's some who maybe they're
- 51:15Speaker 2: the haters, the critics. They're all really really important. And
- 51:19Speaker 2: to me, it's always a yes, it's always you know,
- 51:21Speaker 2: I can't do it while I'm holding a baby, no,
- 51:23Speaker 2: but it's always a yes.
- 51:25Speaker 10: Now here's where there's a little bit of the balance.
- 51:26Speaker 10: So I'm all about it.
- 51:28Speaker 2: The fans are the most important thing we have, and
- 51:30Speaker 2: I try to explain it to the children that they
- 51:32Speaker 2: provide this this house, that that they're part of that.
- 51:37Speaker 11: Right.
- 51:37Speaker 2: My wife, though, is the other side of that, you
- 51:39Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. And I think sometimes she just
- 51:41Speaker 2: provides a look that helps us a little bit of
- 51:44Speaker 2: a deflection a little bit, and I'm like, all right,
- 51:46Speaker 2: that's good, I got her.
- 51:47Speaker 5: What have you learned about showing up for your wife? Brandy?
- 51:50Speaker 22: Right while doing and sustaining all of that. I remember
- 51:54Speaker 22: her talking about like postpartum depression at one and you know,
- 51:57Speaker 22: she's had a very successful career, like she's first black
- 52:01Speaker 22: woman in the ring announcer of Wressellmania twenty fifteen. Yeah,
- 52:03Speaker 22: first black woman executive in North America wrestling operations, right,
- 52:07Speaker 22: and then she becomes a mom and she's very open
- 52:09Speaker 22: about how things change for her. How do you step
- 52:11Speaker 22: out of your character and just as a husband support
- 52:14Speaker 22: her in those type of situations.
- 52:17Speaker 2: I think what I've tried to do is everything is is,
- 52:21Speaker 2: there's not a I don't want there to be value
- 52:24Speaker 2: weight on what I do that's not equal to what
- 52:27Speaker 2: she does. So this is the biggest season of my life. WrestleMania.
- 52:33Speaker 2: Everything is I sleep, training, diet, everything, this is it.
- 52:37Speaker 2: But in the same vein she's doing a huge porch
- 52:41Speaker 2: tale at her kids store, which is in Roswell called Pinkerton's.
- 52:44Speaker 2: They're the same I need like and I don't know
- 52:47Speaker 2: if she believes me when I tell her that. So
- 52:50Speaker 2: the only way I can do that is just show
- 52:52Speaker 2: it that there is no like, there's no weight to this,
- 52:56Speaker 2: there's no bread winner in our house or anything like that,
- 52:58Speaker 2: because we did this together.
- 53:01Speaker 10: So that's been the thing.
- 53:03Speaker 2: I don't I don't know if it's always always translates,
- 53:07Speaker 2: but that's what I always tried to do, to make
- 53:09Speaker 2: it very clear that what you do is just as
- 53:12Speaker 2: important as what I do, and and support support those
- 53:15Speaker 2: But the big thing too, and we learned this from wrestling,
- 53:18Speaker 2: is that's yours right, like they're cool this, this is great,
- 53:23Speaker 2: like let me this is my thing. But when I
- 53:25Speaker 2: came to w B, a lot of people thought Brandy
- 53:27Speaker 2: would come with and the big part of this was
- 53:30Speaker 2: let's do let's do our own things. Let's do our
- 53:32Speaker 2: own things. Sometimes when you're a couple and you beat
- 53:34Speaker 2: each other over the head with it, that's you know,
- 53:37Speaker 2: like no, no, and it's and it's also you know,
- 53:40Speaker 2: if you're a fan, like I don't know how I'm
- 53:43Speaker 2: a baby face in the first place, bleach blonde hair, wear, suits,
- 53:46Speaker 2: the American flag on the side of my neck. I
- 53:47Speaker 2: don't know why the why I haven't gone the other way,
- 53:50Speaker 2: why I'm not a vicious heel. But I can tell
- 53:53Speaker 2: you that when you add in this beautiful woman to
- 53:55Speaker 2: the first that less likely that the grown men come
- 53:58Speaker 2: of those shows want to cheer for you, you know
- 54:00Speaker 2: what I mean. Like it's like, yeah, so we we've
- 54:03Speaker 2: gone to put spotlights in our own places and separated
- 54:06Speaker 2: that way, which just been really good.
- 54:08Speaker 10: But it's daily, this daily.
- 54:10Speaker 5: You know, you got to you got to be there
- 54:12Speaker 5: when you came back into the WWE.
- 54:15Speaker 22: You said that she a decision that she made was
- 54:18Speaker 22: the only reason why you were even able to come back,
- 54:21Speaker 22: and like what was that?
- 54:23Speaker 5: Like what happened?
- 54:25Speaker 10: I think what I meant or if I meant something,
- 54:26Speaker 10: I shouldn't say.
- 54:28Speaker 22: Uh, you said story that everyone's going to know, but
- 54:32Speaker 22: I wouldn't even be able to been able to come
- 54:34Speaker 22: back if she didn't make a very selfless decision that
- 54:36Speaker 22: changed my life.
- 54:37Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think what I our departure from when
- 54:41Speaker 2: we left the company we were with and helped create,
- 54:43Speaker 2: and that was a w uh.
- 54:46Speaker 10: It came down to her her deciding to.
- 54:53Speaker 2: To not talk about right that departure, like, let's we're
- 54:57Speaker 2: not going to talk about We're moving on.
- 54:59Speaker 10: Did bad stuff?
- 54:59Speaker 2: Have good stuff happened too, right, I'm not gonna talk
- 55:03Speaker 2: about it. And one of the sad things about not
- 55:05Speaker 2: talking about why we left in the departure, one of
- 55:08Speaker 2: the difficult thing was narratives gets created, so stories get told,
- 55:13Speaker 2: podcasts happened, Fans literally think they know what happened where
- 55:17Speaker 2: no one's been even close. And what I would say
- 55:21Speaker 2: is the selfless part she she lives with that, she
- 55:24Speaker 2: owns that, that she respects not just here but the
- 55:27Speaker 2: place we left enough to I'm not gonna talk about that.
- 55:30Speaker 2: And that made it so that they're good they're out
- 55:33Speaker 2: of here Scott Ford. That that was very very helpful
- 55:37Speaker 2: for us. And again, good stuff happened there too. But
- 55:40Speaker 2: that's what I mean by selfless because she lives with that.
- 55:42Speaker 2: And one of the things about that is wrestling fans.
- 55:44Speaker 2: I mentioned they created a narrative. They think they know.
- 55:47Speaker 10: I had to remind her.
- 55:48Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, it's not all the fans, and WrestleMania
- 55:52Speaker 2: forty was the prime example of that. I said, you're
- 55:54Speaker 2: gonna come out with me at WrestleMania forty and I
- 55:58Speaker 2: was so happy because the fans reacted like big pop,
- 56:02Speaker 2: big excitement, and I just needed her to like kind
- 56:04Speaker 2: of nudge or like see like they're the real ones.
- 56:08Speaker 10: They get it, you know what I'm saying. Like they
- 56:10Speaker 10: they they they are mad at you.
- 56:12Speaker 15: And that was very.
- 56:13Speaker 2: Important that she felt it because a lot of a
- 56:15Speaker 2: lot of wrestlers take it to step off. They go away,
- 56:18Speaker 2: or they do something, or they screw up, make a mistake, whatever,
- 56:21Speaker 2: and then they come back and the fans like they
- 56:24Speaker 2: always cradle you back in.
- 56:26Speaker 10: They're really special.
- 56:27Speaker 8: Well.
- 56:27Speaker 4: WrestleMania forty two takes place Saturday April eighteenth and Saturday

- 57:07Speaker 9: Talk ll cool back.
- 57:08Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not dumbing myself down. I'm heeting myself.
- 57:14Speaker 22: I'm the homeguy that knows a little bit about everything
- 57:17Speaker 22: and everything the little brown.
- 57:19Speaker 5: Girls look at you and go, I want to be
- 57:21Speaker 5: like you take me to.
- 57:24Speaker 11: The latest.
- 57:27Speaker 15: On the Breakfast Club.
- 57:29Speaker 5: Talk to me, all right, guys.
- 57:32Speaker 22: So we talked about tea buys yesterday. I'm sorry, we
- 57:36Speaker 22: talked about chili yesterday from TLC and the fact like.
- 57:39Speaker 9: Don't bring me into this, don't bring me into this.
- 57:42Speaker 22: So naturally that's already happening and we're about to discuss that.
- 57:46Speaker 22: And what I think is happening because there's a separation
- 57:49Speaker 22: happening and I can't confirm this, but we're gonna have
- 57:51Speaker 22: a conversation, so separation of the group. Let me talk on.
- 57:54Speaker 22: So first we talked about Chili. Background of that was
- 57:58Speaker 22: that Chili was called out about some donations that she
- 58:01Speaker 22: made to the FEC, which people are linking to Donald Trump.
- 58:05Speaker 5: Now she cleared it up and she says that she
- 58:07Speaker 5: is not maga.
- 58:08Speaker 22: She says that the donations that she made at the
- 58:10Speaker 22: time were to different organizations supporting human trafficking and things
- 58:14Speaker 22: for veterans. Because of her father, she did not know
- 58:16Speaker 22: that there was any affiliation to Donald Trump. Now, All
- 58:19Speaker 22: hip hop dot Com released in exclusive audio yesterday from
- 58:23Speaker 22: an interview from twenty sixteen.
- 58:24Speaker 5: I have not been able to find this interview in full.
- 58:26Speaker 22: I've reached out to Chili's teams several times both yesterday
- 58:29Speaker 22: and this morning, as well as te Bozz's team with
- 58:32Speaker 22: no response. But this interview, they're saying it's from twenty sixteen,
- 58:35Speaker 22: and this is Tabos mentioning one of her group members
- 58:39Speaker 22: and who they voted for.
- 58:40Speaker 5: Let's take a listen.
- 58:41Speaker 8: You guys are about to nominate the biggest Jackass in
- 58:43Speaker 8: the history of politics.
- 58:44Speaker 15: Straight up.
- 58:45Speaker 5: My group member voted for him.
- 58:47Speaker 8: Well, here's my thing is, I've been telling you guys
- 58:50Speaker 8: that when you say Obama got too that on mean
- 58:52Speaker 8: nothing anymore.
- 58:54Speaker 22: Yeah, So that is all that is released from the clip,
- 58:56Speaker 22: and that is beginning to circulate. Now, there was a
- 58:59Speaker 22: story after this happened. There was a story that came
- 59:02Speaker 22: out this morning on TMC's website that from sources close
- 59:05Speaker 22: to t Bos and they are basically making it clear
- 59:09Speaker 22: that t Bis has nothing to do with the news
- 59:11Speaker 22: that we are seeing right now. So it says sources
- 59:13Speaker 22: close to T Boys tell TMC that the singer has
- 59:15Speaker 22: always leart her views be known, whether it be sexual health, HIV,
- 59:18Speaker 22: LGBTQ community, or Black Lives Matter. T Boys has been
- 59:21Speaker 22: an advocate for the UNHR Voice. And then they point
- 59:24Speaker 22: to an interview from twenty seventeen that T Boys and
- 59:27Speaker 22: Chili did with Channel four UK News where she talked
- 59:29Speaker 22: about not really caring for President Trump and saying a
- 59:31Speaker 22: God as her president. But the story is basically wanting
- 59:36Speaker 22: us to separate Ta Bos from everything that is happening
- 59:38Speaker 22: right now in the news. Now you asked me, does
- 59:40Speaker 22: this separate in the group. I've been watching them on
- 59:43Speaker 22: the press run for their tour and their they're fine.
- 59:46Speaker 22: But that's why I'm confused why this story would come out,
- 59:48Speaker 22: because we would naturally notice separate tea boys. People have
- 59:51Speaker 22: been having a conversation about Chili, not t bos. So
- 59:54Speaker 22: I don't know where all of this is coming from.
- 59:55Speaker 22: And again I've tried to clarify and having her back
- 59:58Speaker 22: on anything.
- 59:59Speaker 9: There TLC up this morning man. Meanwhile InVogue TLC and
- 1:00:03Speaker 9: Salt and Pebble going on to it. I did not
- 1:00:05Speaker 9: try to.
- 1:00:06Speaker 5: I tried to. Good It's gonna be a great tour.
- 1:00:09Speaker 22: Now in other news, so yesterday, you guys know that
- 1:00:12Speaker 22: Arsenial Hall has his book coming out.
- 1:00:15Speaker 9: It's out to day.
- 1:00:16Speaker 5: What are you talking about?
- 1:00:17Speaker 8: Arsenio Hall's memoir Our Sinio is out today via Black
- 1:00:20Speaker 8: Privileged Publishing as Simon and SCHUSTERA And I know I
- 1:00:23Speaker 8: could be biased, but it's one of the best entertainment
- 1:00:25Speaker 8: memoirs I ever read in my mother in life.
- 1:00:28Speaker 9: Wow, I mean that wholeheartedly.
- 1:00:30Speaker 5: Yes, they ain't in no books up here, huh, they
- 1:00:33Speaker 5: should have been up here.
- 1:00:33Speaker 7: I ain't got no booth.
- 1:00:35Speaker 22: Well, okay, so yesterday, page six did a ebsurt from
- 1:00:39Speaker 22: his book, and a few other outlets did it, and
- 1:00:41Speaker 22: I thought that this story was like it just paints
- 1:00:43Speaker 22: a good picture of the timing that he was in
- 1:00:44Speaker 22: when his show was on air. So the story is
- 1:00:47Speaker 22: about Arsenial Hall having a flip out and break the
- 1:00:49Speaker 22: studio gate after he was accused of stealing and it
- 1:00:53Speaker 22: was told that the show needed to be less black.
- 1:00:55Speaker 22: So in his memoir that comes out today, Arsenial Hall
- 1:00:59Speaker 22: talks about how somebody stole a keyboard off of the set,
- 1:01:03Speaker 22: like one of the instruments that was on the set
- 1:01:05Speaker 22: right now, this was their Senial Hall show.
- 1:01:08Speaker 5: This is back in nineteen ninety two.
- 1:01:09Speaker 22: Now when that happened, they of course let security know
- 1:01:13Speaker 22: that everybody, like you know, they went through the process.
- 1:01:15Speaker 22: Let's security know father report something was stolen. So or
- 1:01:18Speaker 22: Senior Hall is then leaving the studio later that night
- 1:01:22Speaker 22: with his assistant and a security guard stops him and
- 1:01:24Speaker 22: a security guard is like, we need to search your car,
- 1:01:26Speaker 22: and our Senior Hall was pissed because he's like searching
- 1:01:28Speaker 22: my car for what somebody stole equipment from my show
- 1:01:31Speaker 22: and you're telling me that you need to search my car?
- 1:01:34Speaker 22: Why would I steal my own stuff? So then he
- 1:01:37Speaker 22: gets upset and he you know, he's he's calling out
- 1:01:39Speaker 22: different names. He's like, I know, Johnny Carson has never
- 1:01:42Speaker 22: been accused of stealing, and like just different names that
- 1:01:44Speaker 22: were on the lie and on television at that time.
- 1:01:47Speaker 22: He actually the officer, did you search Dancing's car when
- 1:01:50Speaker 22: he left? And just different stars that were out and
- 1:01:54Speaker 22: on the set at that time. And then they go
- 1:01:58Speaker 22: into kind of like a back and forth some of
- 1:02:00Speaker 22: some sorts, and our senial Hall talks about the fact
- 1:02:03Speaker 22: that during that time he would face things like that,
- 1:02:06Speaker 22: both very direct also micro and he says that during
- 1:02:09Speaker 22: the time that his show was taken off air, first
- 1:02:12Speaker 22: he was told that the show had to be less
- 1:02:13Speaker 22: need to be less black once TV ratings started being
- 1:02:16Speaker 22: a thing, and then he had actually in this episode,
- 1:02:19Speaker 22: they talk about how he had given a resignation letter.
- 1:02:23Speaker 9: Laurence Stop, y'all, the book is out today.
- 1:02:28Speaker 11: It's here.
- 1:02:31Speaker 15: Right now.
- 1:02:31Speaker 5: I was still stuck on on the keyboard.
- 1:02:33Speaker 17: And then.
- 1:02:35Speaker 9: That's not the totality of this.
- 1:02:39Speaker 8: Y'all have no idea the things that our senior Hall
- 1:02:42Speaker 8: had to go through, uh to put Black culture at
- 1:02:47Speaker 8: the forefront. I understand, and I'm and then you know, listen,
- 1:02:49Speaker 8: I always say that I have four entertainment uh idols
- 1:02:52Speaker 8: right our Senior Hall, Jay Z, Clarence Avon, and P. D.
- 1:02:55Speaker 10: Green.
- 1:02:56Speaker 8: But I'm telling you, no, I love this is one
- 1:03:00Speaker 8: of the best entertainment memoirs I've ever read in my life. Okay,
- 1:03:03Speaker 8: And you know, it is a privilege to be publishing
- 1:03:07Speaker 8: Arsenio Hall's memoir.
- 1:03:08Speaker 22: The only reason why I was reading the episourd and
- 1:03:10Speaker 22: a little block that page six had was because I
- 1:03:12Speaker 22: was trying to paint the picture of that, like you know,
- 1:03:14Speaker 22: if the episodes out there, you know, you go in
- 1:03:16Speaker 22: into the things.
- 1:03:18Speaker 8: Yeah, but you're gonna see all over the place. I mean,
- 1:03:20Speaker 8: he's he's he's gonna be everywhere.
- 1:03:22Speaker 22: I believe he's doing CBS mornings this this morning. You
- 1:03:25Speaker 22: were taking a look out for that.
- 1:03:26Speaker 9: Yeah, good morning. I think it's Good Morning America. He's
- 1:03:29Speaker 9: doing this one.

- 1:03:31Speaker 22: that I saw well in other news. In case you

- 1:05:23Speaker 9: I want to start off with this donkey right here, right.
- 1:05:29Speaker 8: Yes, donkey today for Tuesday, March thirty, first goes to
- 1:05:31Speaker 8: former Chicago Bulls guard Jaden Ivy. Jaden is a young
- 1:05:34Speaker 8: man okay, twenty four years old. He played college basketball
- 1:05:38Speaker 8: for Purdue, and he was drafted as the fifth overall
- 1:05:40Speaker 8: pick by the Detroit Pistons in twenty twenty two. He
- 1:05:42Speaker 8: signed a four year, thirty two million dollar deal with
- 1:05:45Speaker 8: the Pistons. Okay, he was traded to the Chicago Bulls
- 1:05:48Speaker 8: this year and was set to make ten million dollars.
- 1:05:50Speaker 9: Okay, I don't know if he's still getting.
- 1:05:52Speaker 8: Paid, but the young man was waived by the Chicago
- 1:05:54Speaker 8: Bulls yesterday for conduct detrimental.
- 1:05:57Speaker 7: To the team.
- 1:05:59Speaker 9: What did he young, Well, let's go to his I
- 1:06:03Speaker 9: G Live for the report.
- 1:06:05Speaker 19: The world can proclaim lgbt Q. They proclaim Pride months
- 1:06:10Speaker 19: and the NBA they proclaim it. They show it to
- 1:06:14Speaker 19: the world. They say, come come join us for Pride
- 1:06:17Speaker 19: for Pride month, to celebrate unrighteousness. They proclaim it. They
- 1:06:22Speaker 19: proclaim it on the billboards, they proclaim it in the streets, unrighteousness.
- 1:06:27Speaker 19: So how is it that one can't speak righteousness? How
- 1:06:30Speaker 19: is it one that how how are they to say
- 1:06:33Speaker 19: that man, this man is crazy?
- 1:06:37Speaker 9: Hmm, So play that again one more time please.
- 1:06:41Speaker 19: The world can proclaim lgbt Q. They proclaim Pride months
- 1:06:46Speaker 19: and the NBA they proclaim it. They they show it
- 1:06:50Speaker 19: to the world. They say, come come join us for Pride.
- 1:06:54Speaker 19: For Pride month, to celebrate unrighteousness. They proclaim it. They
- 1:06:59Speaker 19: proclaim it on the billboards, they proclaim it in the
- 1:07:02Speaker 19: streets unrighteousness. So how is it that one can't speak righteousness?
- 1:07:07Speaker 19: How is it one that how are they to say
- 1:07:10Speaker 19: that man, this man is crazy?
- 1:07:13Speaker 8: So he said that the LGBTQ Pride month is unrighteous,
- 1:07:18Speaker 8: So the bulls waived Jade and Ivy after what they
- 1:07:21Speaker 8: call anti LGBTQ commons. Listen to me, kids, if you
- 1:07:25Speaker 8: don't listen to anything that comes out of your uncle
- 1:07:27Speaker 8: Shawlah's mouth, ever.
- 1:07:28Speaker 9: Again, listen to this.
- 1:07:30Speaker 8: Keep your attention focused entirely on what is truly your
- 1:07:34Speaker 8: own concern, and be clear that what belongs to others
- 1:07:37Speaker 8: is their business and none of yours. I repeat, keep
- 1:07:41Speaker 8: your attention focused entirely on what is truly your own concern,
- 1:07:45Speaker 8: and be clear that what belongs to others is their
- 1:07:47Speaker 8: business and none of yours. Those are wise words from
- 1:07:50Speaker 8: the store philosopher Epictetus. Okay, minding other people's business could
- 1:07:55Speaker 8: cost you yours, right. It is amazing to me that
- 1:07:59Speaker 8: religious folks will claim they are following scripture when they
- 1:08:02Speaker 8: make moral evaluations about people like Jade and Ivy did,
- 1:08:06Speaker 8: but they never seem to follow the scripture. Matthew seven
- 1:08:08Speaker 8: to one. Do not judge, or you too will be judged.
- 1:08:11Speaker 8: In this morning, I am judging how a young twenty
- 1:08:14Speaker 8: four year old man could blow his money being concerned
- 1:08:17Speaker 8: about who another man is blowing. Okay, when I tell you,
- 1:08:20Speaker 8: I could care less what another man is doing with
- 1:08:22Speaker 8: their penis. If a man wants to make the back
- 1:08:25Speaker 8: of his throat a party for another man, if I'm
- 1:08:28Speaker 8: not the man being invited to come.
- 1:08:29Speaker 5: I could care less.
- 1:08:30Speaker 15: Okay.
- 1:08:31Speaker 8: It makes no sense to me how much people care
- 1:08:33Speaker 8: about other people's sexuality.
- 1:08:35Speaker 9: If a man takes his sandwich with a pickle, let
- 1:08:37Speaker 9: him have his pickle. Okay, what he sucks don't make
- 1:08:41Speaker 9: you ejaculate. Okay. If a man is a little lighting
- 1:08:46Speaker 9: the loafers, why.
- 1:08:47Speaker 23: Do you care?
- 1:08:48Speaker 9: All right? Do you understand what it means to sit
- 1:08:51Speaker 9: around and worry about who's gay? Okay?
- 1:08:53Speaker 8: You're literally sitting around thinking about a man having sex
- 1:08:56Speaker 8: with another man so much so that you gotta go
- 1:08:59Speaker 8: live life and tell the world about your thoughts.
- 1:09:02Speaker 9: Okay.
- 1:09:03Speaker 8: I think what people like Jade and Ivy really want
- 1:09:05Speaker 8: to say is I might be curious. Okay, that's why
- 1:09:08Speaker 8: I can't stop thinking about men having sex with other men.
- 1:09:10Speaker 8: And when I get on ig Live and condemn y'all behavior,
- 1:09:13Speaker 8: it's because I too would like to play hopscotch on
- 1:09:16Speaker 8: a game cock. But I'm not free to be who
- 1:09:18Speaker 8: I want to be now, Jade and Navy decided to
- 1:09:22Speaker 8: go on. I g after he was waived by the Bulls.
- 1:09:24Speaker 8: The question why he was waved. Let's listen, and what
- 1:09:27Speaker 8: did I do to the players? I did nothing but
- 1:09:30Speaker 8: but but practice with them, play with them, pass the
- 1:09:33Speaker 8: ball to them. Good teammates to them, said good job,
- 1:09:37Speaker 8: good shot. I said, I said, uh uh, good job,
- 1:09:41Speaker 8: good job, good past.
- 1:09:42Speaker 15: Way to play bro right.
- 1:09:45Speaker 9: I said these things to my teammates.
- 1:09:48Speaker 15: Was never detrimental to them.
- 1:09:50Speaker 19: So why is it that the NBA and the Chicago
- 1:09:52Speaker 19: Bulls say that I'm detrimental to the team. How because
- 1:09:55Speaker 19: I because I have because I believe and the truth
- 1:09:58Speaker 19: because because I'm you know, Jesus is the way the
- 1:10:01Speaker 19: truth in the life. How is my conduct detrimental to
- 1:10:03Speaker 19: the team because of what I believe? Because of what
- 1:10:06Speaker 19: the truth is. Jesus is the way, the truth and
- 1:10:09Speaker 19: the life. But Jaden, you have no idea how the
- 1:10:12Speaker 19: real world works. Okay, what did you do to the team.
- 1:10:15Speaker 19: What did you do to the players? Did it ever
- 1:10:17Speaker 19: dawn on you some of the players might be a
- 1:10:21Speaker 19: gentleman's gentleman.
- 1:10:22Speaker 12: Huh?
- 1:10:23Speaker 8: Did you ever stop to think that people on the
- 1:10:25Speaker 8: team they might be brown pipe engineers. You don't even
- 1:10:30Speaker 8: know who you offended, Okay, the owners, the sponsors, the coaches, players.
- 1:10:35Speaker 9: You don't know who's gay. You don't know who has
- 1:10:37Speaker 9: gay people in their family.
- 1:10:39Speaker 8: There might be people on the team who got gay kids,
- 1:10:41Speaker 8: but you didn't care about any of that when you
- 1:10:44Speaker 8: made your statement. Listen, I know when we talk about
- 1:10:47Speaker 8: the Bible and Matthew seven to one, do not judge?
- 1:10:50Speaker 8: Are you two will be judged? That doesn't mean, you know,
- 1:10:53Speaker 8: never make moral evaluations. Of course, we are going to
- 1:10:56Speaker 8: see a moral things and called him out. But there's
- 1:10:58Speaker 8: a difference between being judge, mental condemn and condemning, okay,
- 1:11:03Speaker 8: being hypocritical and judging righteously using discernment. Okay, Jaden, who
- 1:11:08Speaker 8: the hell are you to tell someone that what they
- 1:11:11Speaker 8: are doing is unrighteous? Okay, all right, my brother, I'm
- 1:11:15Speaker 8: not knocking your religion. All right, I'm not knocking you.
- 1:11:17Speaker 8: I'm not knocking what you believe. But unless you are perfect. Okay,
- 1:11:20Speaker 8: I'm talking the Messiah.
- 1:11:22Speaker 9: The Savior, the Lord, Jesus Christ himself.
- 1:11:25Speaker 8: You are not perfect to be making these kind of
- 1:11:29Speaker 8: moral evaluations about people. Now I read in this article
- 1:11:31Speaker 8: on ESPN it says Jaden is dealing with depression. And
- 1:11:35Speaker 8: this is why I encourage so many of us to
- 1:11:37Speaker 8: invest in our mental health. Okay, you have to do
- 1:11:40Speaker 8: the work on yourself. Take your ass to therapy and
- 1:11:42Speaker 8: figure out what's going on in your head and your heart.
- 1:11:45Speaker 8: Because what you are doing, Jaden, what you did is
- 1:11:48Speaker 8: project a lot of hurt on the other people. You
- 1:11:50Speaker 8: are bleeding on people who didn't cut you. And what
- 1:11:53Speaker 8: do I always say, deal with your trauma or your
- 1:11:55Speaker 8: trauma will deal with you. If you watch this video
- 1:11:58Speaker 8: of this brother Jaden, you can clearly see him speaking
- 1:12:01Speaker 8: through the filter of his wounds. So I hope he
- 1:12:05Speaker 8: gets to help he needs because right now, Jayden, you
- 1:12:08Speaker 8: need something that you weren't willing to give to the
- 1:12:10Speaker 8: LGBTQ community, and that's something It.
- 1:12:13Speaker 9: Is called grace. Please give Jade and Ivy the biggest
- 1:12:17Speaker 9: he hull. You better stop minding other people's business. That's crazy.
- 1:12:24Speaker 5: So what if does just the way you feel like,
- 1:12:27Speaker 5: why you gotta be depressed? Why you gotta.
- 1:12:31Speaker 10: Depressed before that?
- 1:12:32Speaker 6: No, but I'm saying in the dounky of to day,
- 1:12:34Speaker 6: shall say, you know, he might, he might have he
- 1:12:37Speaker 6: might be curious.
- 1:12:38Speaker 9: You might because why do you care so much about
- 1:12:39Speaker 9: what somebody's doing with the penis?
- 1:12:41Speaker 8: Yeah, but I'm saying some people, just why are you
- 1:12:43Speaker 8: sitting around thinking about who's gay?
- 1:12:45Speaker 5: Exactly?
- 1:12:45Speaker 8: Why are you sitting around thinking about why is this
- 1:12:47Speaker 8: man sleeping with this man? Like you don't think that's like,
- 1:12:49Speaker 8: that's that's actually strange. You're just at home, like, I
- 1:12:54Speaker 8: bet you he gay. I bet you he sleeps with
- 1:12:57Speaker 8: other men. Let me go live and tell the world
- 1:12:59Speaker 8: that this is so wrong.
- 1:13:01Speaker 9: That he's sleeping with another man? Why do you cast
- 1:13:03Speaker 9: so much?
- 1:13:04Speaker 5: Definitely wouldn't definitely shouldn't have went live with it. For sure,
- 1:13:08Speaker 5: you definitely shouldn't have. I agree with a lot of.
- 1:13:10Speaker 9: You shouldn't even think that.
- 1:13:11Speaker 8: But I mean, and if you do think that, and
- 1:13:14Speaker 8: you do decide to go live, you have to deal
- 1:13:15Speaker 8: with the consequences of those actions because guess what, As
- 1:13:18Speaker 8: I said, he don't know who on that team is gay,
- 1:13:21Speaker 8: He don't know the owners of that team might be gay,
- 1:13:23Speaker 8: they might have gay kids, and you're gonna go live
- 1:13:26Speaker 8: and just insult the whole community and expect it not
- 1:13:28Speaker 8: to be any consequences for those actions.
- 1:13:30Speaker 5: Yeah, that's just that's just ridiculous. All right, Well, thank
- 1:13:33Speaker 5: you for that donkey today.

- 1:14:07Speaker 5: So why did you jump into that crust?
- 1:14:10Speaker 9: I'm surprised because I'm very.
- 1:14:13Speaker 6: Private when it comes to your family, Like drunk, I
- 1:14:15Speaker 6: don't know, you know, I'm a cat, Okay, I've been
- 1:14:21Speaker 6: a television producer, I have been a restaurant tour. I've
- 1:14:24Speaker 6: been a pageant girl and doing reality TV was just
- 1:14:28Speaker 6: something else to like knock off the list, And when
- 1:14:31Speaker 6: the opportunity presented, so said, I might as well do it,
- 1:14:34Speaker 6: Like yeah, and I'm happy that I did.
- 1:14:37Speaker 5: It was actually a very interesting.
- 1:14:38Speaker 22: Experience, really yeah, very interesting talk about them approaching you
- 1:14:43Speaker 22: for the show or like because I know you worked
- 1:14:45Speaker 22: in casting too at one point, right, I did.
- 1:14:47Speaker 6: I used to be a producer for The moriy Show
- 1:14:49Speaker 6: and a whole bunch of TV shows, so that the
- 1:14:53Speaker 6: timing couldn't have been better, you know what I'm saying,
- 1:14:55Speaker 6: Like this was right after we saw it, Like I
- 1:14:57Speaker 6: went through the restructure in my company, had to twenty
- 1:15:00Speaker 6: million dollars in that bought my business back forty three
- 1:15:03Speaker 6: days later. And then right when I bought my business back,
- 1:15:06Speaker 6: it was like the conversation was the timing couldn't have
- 1:15:08Speaker 6: been no better, and I'm like, you know what, I'm
- 1:15:10Speaker 6: gonna try this, I'm gonna do this, and you know,
- 1:15:12Speaker 6: doing it really exposed a lot of things in a
- 1:15:15Speaker 6: great way. I got to meet some new friends and
- 1:15:18Speaker 6: so many people like Picky up, why would you do
- 1:15:19Speaker 6: that show? And I'm like, I'm a mastermind. That's why
- 1:15:22Speaker 6: were you nervous at first?
- 1:15:23Speaker 5: Like, I don't know if I'm trying to jump and
- 1:15:25Speaker 5: jump out that on, I don't get nervous. Yeah, I
- 1:15:27Speaker 5: got you.
- 1:15:29Speaker 7: You don't mind because you're very a private person when
- 1:15:31Speaker 7: it comes to your personal life, right.
- 1:15:33Speaker 4: Personal life? Yes, yes, yes, sir, your open book. But
- 1:15:38Speaker 4: you know in the Housewives they get into personal lives.
- 1:15:41Speaker 4: What did that ball do at all?
- 1:15:42Speaker 6: No, to be honest, at that point, the whole world
- 1:15:45Speaker 6: knew what happened. I literally went publicly and say, hey,
- 1:15:47Speaker 6: I lost my company. I don't own my company anymore.
- 1:15:50Speaker 5: So like you're not just gonna laugh at my story,
- 1:15:53Speaker 5: I might as well capitalize off of it. My dam's house,
- 1:15:55Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying.
- 1:15:56Speaker 6: So when everything happened with my business, I said I
- 1:15:59Speaker 6: might as well because I could be a testimony to
- 1:16:02Speaker 6: entrepreneurs who are going through difficult times. Because what happens
- 1:16:05Speaker 6: in entrepreneurship is everybody got this pride. They only show
- 1:16:08Speaker 6: the highlight reels, like all the things that are really good.
- 1:16:11Speaker 6: But like, I really went through some really heavy times,
- 1:16:14Speaker 6: some really dark times. I almost lost my mind, and
- 1:16:17Speaker 6: I did that in private. So because I did that
- 1:16:20Speaker 6: in private. When it was time to go public about it,
- 1:16:22Speaker 6: I'm like, somebody else life can be saved if they
- 1:16:25Speaker 6: hear my testimony and what I went through. You know
- 1:16:27Speaker 6: what I'm saying, Like there were nights where I'm like,
- 1:16:29Speaker 6: it's just me and my pillow in God, and I'm like,
- 1:16:31Speaker 6: I don't want to do this no more. You know
- 1:16:33Speaker 6: what I'm saying, Like this is too much for me,
- 1:16:35Speaker 6: Like it might be better if I'm not here. And
- 1:16:38Speaker 6: a lot of people don't talk about stuff like that.
- 1:16:40Speaker 6: So if I could be the vessel right to show.
- 1:16:43Speaker 5: Somebody else that, like you can keep going, you don't
- 1:16:46Speaker 5: give up.
- 1:16:47Speaker 6: People will talk, people will have an opinion, but like
- 1:16:49Speaker 6: the purpose is bigger than a circumstance, then somebody else's
- 1:16:53Speaker 6: life is going to be saved because of what I
- 1:16:54Speaker 6: went through. I'm having to write people around you. People
- 1:17:00Speaker 6: say like you need the right team, Like it is
- 1:17:02Speaker 6: so critical. It is like an iPhone that needs a battery, Okay,
- 1:17:07Speaker 6: Like I need to have people around me that's going
- 1:17:09Speaker 6: to charge me up when I feel depleted. You understand
- 1:17:11Speaker 6: what I'm saying, Like when they say that ten percent,
- 1:17:13Speaker 6: when you ain't got nothing left in you, you need
- 1:17:16Speaker 6: somebody that's going to take you back up again. And
- 1:17:18Speaker 6: that's relationships, partnerships, it's friendships, it's having a good manager.
- 1:17:23Speaker 6: We all got management, right. It's having a good manager.
- 1:17:25Speaker 6: If you're around somebody all day, every day and they're like,
- 1:17:28Speaker 6: that's not gonna work.
- 1:17:29Speaker 5: Don't do that.
- 1:17:30Speaker 6: I don't believe in a dream. You're just sitting there like, damn,
- 1:17:32Speaker 6: who I got on my side? So having the right team,
- 1:17:35Speaker 6: and just you know, I'm a mom. I got three kids, four, three,
- 1:17:38Speaker 6: and two, so I realize now like, all right, this
- 1:17:41Speaker 6: is bigger than me, Like I can't I cannot lose.
- 1:17:44Speaker 6: I might throw the towel in, but for some reason,
- 1:17:46Speaker 6: a towel get thrown back in my face because I
- 1:17:48Speaker 6: got so many people looking at me and expecting me
- 1:17:51Speaker 6: to win.
- 1:17:52Speaker 7: How is your husband during this time?
- 1:17:53Speaker 4: Because his business is connected to your business, which is
- 1:17:56Speaker 4: the family business. So it's not like you can do
- 1:17:58Speaker 4: something that doesn't affect him or he can't do it
- 1:18:00Speaker 4: that doesn't affect you. So how was he during that time?
- 1:18:03Speaker 5: You know, I'm gonna be honest with you.
- 1:18:05Speaker 6: So Derek is doing incredibly well, Like he's at number
- 1:18:08Speaker 6: sixteen going on thirty franchisees. He just got name top
- 1:18:12Speaker 6: six French restaurants in the country. He just made the
- 1:18:16Speaker 6: cover of QSR magazine for the April issue. So like
- 1:18:19Speaker 6: he's popping. So can you imagine being young, married to
- 1:18:23Speaker 6: a very successful man and also being very successful and
- 1:18:26Speaker 6: while my ship is crumbling, okay, he is elevating in
- 1:18:30Speaker 6: real time. So when you're in a relationship with somebody
- 1:18:32Speaker 6: and one is winning real big and then the other
- 1:18:34Speaker 6: one is falling at the same time, we had to
- 1:18:37Speaker 6: navigate that and that was incredibly hard.
- 1:18:39Speaker 5: So like he wanted to be happy with me, but
- 1:18:41Speaker 5: I'm sitting in the corner sad. You know what I'm saying.
- 1:18:44Speaker 6: I'm sitting in the corner trying to strategize, like, Okay, congratulations,
- 1:18:46Speaker 6: but I got this going on. And the reason why
- 1:18:48Speaker 6: I'm being transparent about that because a lot of people,
- 1:18:51Speaker 6: especially entrepreneurs, in relationships, they don't talk about the dark
- 1:18:55Speaker 6: side of what happens if one person is winning any
- 1:18:58Speaker 6: other person is not.
- 1:19:00Speaker 5: And I'm saying, like, that was hard. It almost cost
- 1:19:01Speaker 5: me my marriage.
- 1:19:02Speaker 22: I'm gonna ask you a lot of times when you
- 1:19:03Speaker 22: hear those stories, especially how dark things got you seen
- 1:19:07Speaker 22: God for you. People don't make it out of that,
- 1:19:09Speaker 22: No they don't. So what were those days like of
- 1:19:11Speaker 22: like trying to make sure that you didn't lose the marriage?
- 1:19:13Speaker 22: And what was the day like when you guys said
- 1:19:15Speaker 22: down and said, maybe we don't need to do this
- 1:19:16Speaker 22: right now.
- 1:19:16Speaker 5: Well, first of all, we ain't got no prenupt so
- 1:19:18Speaker 5: I ain't going nowhere nowhere, okay, the couch.
- 1:19:25Speaker 9: Oh yeah, But I realized that I'm only how old
- 1:19:29Speaker 9: am I?
- 1:19:30Speaker 6: I'm thirty eight years old, my husband about to be
- 1:19:32Speaker 6: thirty nine years old. We live in a country club,
- 1:19:35Speaker 6: We have a life that people have prayed for. We
- 1:19:38Speaker 6: got a beautiful family. We do we do beautiful things
- 1:19:41Speaker 6: with our family, and I'm like, it's bigger than us now. So, yes,
- 1:19:45Speaker 6: we have our days, and yes it gets incredibly difficult.
- 1:19:48Speaker 6: But tell me when the last time y'all seen two
- 1:19:51Speaker 6: black entrepreneurs who both separately own multimillion dollar companies, who
- 1:19:55Speaker 6: have both made history separately and together. When the last
- 1:19:58Speaker 6: time you've seen that, as I'm saying, jay Z, but
- 1:20:01Speaker 6: in the restaurant space, you ain't never seen it. So
- 1:20:04Speaker 6: we have the opportunity to really change the trajectory of
- 1:20:07Speaker 6: how black entrepreneurs especially see success in business, and yes,
- 1:20:12Speaker 6: it gets comfortable. But what I believe is is that
- 1:20:15Speaker 6: God has made us, has put us on display, right,
- 1:20:18Speaker 6: And sometimes when you get put on display, being on
- 1:20:21Speaker 6: display is uncomfortable. Okay, it's just like a merchandiser goes
- 1:20:25Speaker 6: into a retail spot and puts clothes on the mannequin. Okay,
- 1:20:30Speaker 6: but when you're on display, the people who want to
- 1:20:32Speaker 6: see you are going to walk by and say, hey,
- 1:20:33Speaker 6: I want that. So being on display ain't never mean
- 1:20:37Speaker 6: that it's always going to look good. Sometimes it's going
- 1:20:39Speaker 6: to hurt. Sometimes you want to cry. Sometimes you're going
- 1:20:41Speaker 6: to feel isolated. But in order to evolve and elevate
- 1:20:45Speaker 6: in who you're trying to be, isolation is going to
- 1:20:47Speaker 6: come with that.
- 1:20:48Speaker 5: And we know that. And because we know that, we're
- 1:20:50Speaker 5: so much better off as a couple, we.
- 1:20:52Speaker 4: Got so hard because most people will think, if if
- 1:20:54Speaker 4: I'm e ffed up, my husband got me. My husband
- 1:20:56Speaker 4: he gonna pay me and make sure I'm good, and
- 1:20:58Speaker 4: vice versa. If he's fed up, got him. So what
- 1:21:01Speaker 4: got so crazy? Like what made it seem like that
- 1:21:03Speaker 4: you almost got a divorce?
- 1:21:04Speaker 11: What was that?
- 1:21:05Speaker 7: Bottom line?
- 1:21:05Speaker 5: Because both of y'all in this situation where y'all y'all
- 1:21:08Speaker 5: got each other.
- 1:21:09Speaker 6: So you ever heard sometimes when people come from a
- 1:21:12Speaker 6: space of love and some people come from a space
- 1:21:14Speaker 6: of survival, of course, So when I'm in a space
- 1:21:17Speaker 6: of survival and he's navigating through his space of love,
- 1:21:21Speaker 6: like that's like oil and water, you know what I'm saying.
- 1:21:24Speaker 6: And I'm literally speaking from a place of truth here
- 1:21:27Speaker 6: because a lot of people won't vocalize this, but like
- 1:21:30Speaker 6: it got really incredibly hardware.
- 1:21:32Speaker 5: Like here it is.
- 1:21:33Speaker 6: I have this one hundred million dollar brand, but my
- 1:21:35Speaker 6: payroll is three hundred and fifty thousand dollars a week, okay,
- 1:21:39Speaker 6: And I'm not getting financially supported by the people on
- 1:21:42Speaker 6: my team so that i can get out of the
- 1:21:44Speaker 6: debt that I'm ment so that i can continue to grow.
- 1:21:46Speaker 5: And now my husband is raising money, he's doing all
- 1:21:48Speaker 5: of the things.
- 1:21:49Speaker 6: So you have outside noise, right that are coming in
- 1:21:53Speaker 6: to try to corrupt and poison the bond that we've created.
- 1:21:57Speaker 6: So we really had to put like a barrier for
- 1:22:00Speaker 6: our relationship to understand, like it's us against the world, right,
- 1:22:03Speaker 6: We got these five little kids that are looking up
- 1:22:06Speaker 6: to us and expecting us to win, and we're not
- 1:22:08Speaker 6: going to let the outside world win. So like, whatever
- 1:22:11Speaker 6: it takes, we're going to do, and that's what we're
- 1:22:13Speaker 6: doing in real time.
- 1:22:14Speaker 22: Well, you talked a lot about the debt that you
- 1:22:16Speaker 22: were in and that being a storyline on the show.
- 1:22:19Speaker 22: So going back to the beginning with the the having
- 1:22:23Speaker 22: to buy back your business. When you had to buy
- 1:22:24Speaker 22: back your business, you were talking about all of the overhead.
- 1:22:26Speaker 5: I think it was like ten million.
- 1:22:27Speaker 22: Dollars in twenty million dollars in overhead that you were facing,
- 1:22:30Speaker 22: right because of expansions and things of that nature. Then
- 1:22:33Speaker 22: you buy back the business, then you file for bankruptcy.
- 1:22:37Speaker 22: Can you talk us through because I know a lot
- 1:22:39Speaker 22: of people were, like I saw the skit that you
- 1:22:41Speaker 22: posted on Instagram, A lot of people thought that that
- 1:22:43Speaker 22: meant that you had nothing. You were down and out.
- 1:22:45Speaker 22: Talk about your decision to file for bankruptcy after buying
- 1:22:47Speaker 22: your business back. Okay, so our entrepreneurs, I need y'all
- 1:22:50Speaker 22: to hear me. I don't know if y'all saw a
- 1:22:51Speaker 22: video circulating where I said, do not put anything in
- 1:22:54Speaker 22: your personal name.
- 1:22:54Speaker 5: Have y'all seen that clip? Find it? After this interview,
- 1:22:58Speaker 5: So the reason why I said that.
- 1:22:59Speaker 6: Clip is because here it is at my peak, fourteen
- 1:23:02Speaker 6: locations Slutdy Vegan. It cost me between eight hundred thousand
- 1:23:05Speaker 6: to a million to open up each location. I raised
- 1:23:08Speaker 6: twenty five million dollars in twenty twenty two. Company got
- 1:23:11Speaker 6: valued at one hundred million dollars. We kicking in the
- 1:23:13Speaker 6: middle of a pandemic, in the middle of a time
- 1:23:16Speaker 6: where inflation is through the roof, you know, right, inflation
- 1:23:19Speaker 6: is through the roof. Supply chain is crazy, so like
- 1:23:21Speaker 6: there's like a six x on everything. So we did
- 1:23:24Speaker 6: everything that we said that we were going to do
- 1:23:26Speaker 6: in business. The problem is is that when you grow
- 1:23:29Speaker 6: that fast, right, sometimes you put basketball players on the
- 1:23:34Speaker 6: golf course. You understand what I'm saying. So you got
- 1:23:37Speaker 6: people that do an incredible job and their skill set,
- 1:23:40Speaker 6: but then you position them somewhere else and they can't
- 1:23:43Speaker 6: do what you need to do to take you where
- 1:23:44Speaker 6: you need to go. So as a result, we got
- 1:23:47Speaker 6: twenty million dollars in debt, right, and as a result
- 1:23:50Speaker 6: of that debt, we were drowning. So yes, we were
- 1:23:52Speaker 6: making money double digit millions. But if your payroll is
- 1:23:56Speaker 6: high and if you have all of these costs and
- 1:23:58Speaker 6: everything is adding up.
- 1:23:59Speaker 5: Your bottom line is going to be read.
- 1:24:01Speaker 6: But what I didn't know is when we were growing
- 1:24:03Speaker 6: the company everything, I'm just signing my name on personal
- 1:24:05Speaker 6: guarantee because nobody ever thinks about the business that it
- 1:24:08Speaker 6: will fail. Nobody thinks like, Okay, this ain't gonna work
- 1:24:10Speaker 6: one day, so don't do that, especially not me. Like
- 1:24:13Speaker 6: I have this company lines down the block. Everybody loves
- 1:24:16Speaker 6: this brand. And then one day I look up and
- 1:24:18Speaker 6: I got all of this that, and I'm like, okay, cool,
- 1:24:20Speaker 6: I can file an assignment for the benefit of creditors.
- 1:24:23Speaker 5: Okay, do y'all know what that is? That is bankruptcy's
- 1:24:26Speaker 5: first cousin. Okay. So it's an out of court procedure
- 1:24:30Speaker 5: that you file if you need to restructure your business.
- 1:24:32Speaker 6: It cleans your cat table. So if you have investors,
- 1:24:35Speaker 6: you no longer have investors.
- 1:24:36Speaker 5: I was no longer the CEO, none of that. Okay.
- 1:24:39Speaker 6: So I did not own a company for forty three days,
- 1:24:42Speaker 6: and an estate that took the company. They took the assets,
- 1:24:45Speaker 6: and they took the debt so that they can sell
- 1:24:48Speaker 6: off the assets so that they can pay off the debt. Okay,
- 1:24:51Speaker 6: and then they sell the business to somebody who wants
- 1:24:53Speaker 6: to buy. But who else gonna buy?
- 1:24:54Speaker 5: Study? You can stuff for me.
- 1:24:55Speaker 6: So forty three days later I bought the company. But
- 1:24:59Speaker 6: here's the kicker. After I bought the company, I'm like, okay, cool,
- 1:25:02Speaker 6: everything is good. Next thing, I know, the creditors are
- 1:25:05Speaker 6: coming after me personally because I'm the party responsible from
- 1:25:10Speaker 6: the old co. So even though the old co is
- 1:25:13Speaker 6: dead and I don't have to deal with the old
- 1:25:15Speaker 6: co no more, they're coming after me because they're like, all.
- 1:25:18Speaker 5: Right, she's a public figure, she got it, she can
- 1:25:20Speaker 5: pay for.
- 1:25:21Speaker 6: But smart entrepreneurs know is that you don't really hold
- 1:25:24Speaker 6: no assets in your personal name on paper. I ain't
- 1:25:27Speaker 6: got nothing personally, and as it should be, So okay,
- 1:25:31Speaker 6: all right, you have to file for bankruptcy because you
- 1:25:33Speaker 6: got I got lawsuits. I'm walking into Saint Regis. I'm
- 1:25:35Speaker 6: getting served lawsuits all of these things from old co.
- 1:25:38Speaker 6: So now this becomes a part two of that restructure.
- 1:25:42Speaker 6: But you know the internet, the Internet, and.
- 1:25:45Speaker 7: So now you have currently how many active locations you have?
- 1:25:48Speaker 6: I got seven, and then I have over a dozen
- 1:25:52Speaker 6: franchises in the pipeline.
- 1:25:54Speaker 4: Now you said you had fourteen at one time. What
- 1:25:56Speaker 4: was the reason that a lot of those franchises closed?
- 1:25:59Speaker 4: Because I mean it seems like you said there was
- 1:26:01Speaker 4: lines around the corner. I mean during COVID.
- 1:26:03Speaker 5: Management, I mean it was packed.
- 1:26:05Speaker 4: It was pish music. I've been to a couple of events.
- 1:26:08Speaker 4: So what happened that allowed that made those locations close?
- 1:26:12Speaker 6: So as soon as we did the restructure, the estate
- 1:26:15Speaker 6: closed majority of those locations, even though they were making money. Yeah,
- 1:26:18Speaker 6: even though they were making money, they just didn't have
- 1:26:20Speaker 6: the people to run those companies. Like you know, I
- 1:26:22Speaker 6: had Spellman and they closed Spellman. It was this whole
- 1:26:24Speaker 6: big thing. I didn't close Spellman. The estate closed Spellman.
- 1:26:27Speaker 6: You understand what I'm saying. So the estate came in
- 1:26:30Speaker 6: and closed the locations that they just didn't want to
- 1:26:32Speaker 6: deal with. All of my stores make money, all of them.
- 1:26:34Speaker 6: I could my my lowest revenue stores do better than
- 1:26:38Speaker 6: the average restaurant. But they just didn't want to deal with.
- 1:26:40Speaker 6: I'm it's an estate company. They come in, fold everything
- 1:26:43Speaker 6: over it. They just want to kind of like streamline
- 1:26:45Speaker 6: and limit down. Which is okay, because what that did
- 1:26:48Speaker 6: is it made me a smarter entrepreneur, right, like even
- 1:26:51Speaker 6: my lowest revenue store I would hold on to because
- 1:26:53Speaker 6: of ego, right, But I had to learn in the process.
- 1:26:56Speaker 5: If you got a.
- 1:26:57Speaker 6: Store that it ain't doing at least one point two million,
- 1:26:59Speaker 6: you might need to close that store up and do
- 1:27:00Speaker 6: something different, you know what I'm saying. So like, there's
- 1:27:03Speaker 6: so many things that I have learned as an entrepreneur
- 1:27:06Speaker 6: in this process, and I'm so glad that I had
- 1:27:08Speaker 6: the hiccups. I'm so glad that sometimes things didn't go
- 1:27:11Speaker 6: right because it really only made me stronger and wiser,
- 1:27:14Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. So when I do it again,
- 1:27:16Speaker 6: I know exactly what to do differently.
- 1:27:17Speaker 7: Are you opening up and spelming again?
- 1:27:19Speaker 11: No?
- 1:27:20Speaker 10: Why not?
- 1:27:21Speaker 6: Just college campuses? Like it's not a year round business,
- 1:27:24Speaker 6: so like you're relying on them in school. It's just
- 1:27:26Speaker 6: it's not lucrative enough. To be honest, Spellman was great,
- 1:27:29Speaker 6: shout out to Spelman, but it's just not lucrative enough.
- 1:27:31Speaker 5: Now we also seen something that they they change your house.
- 1:27:37Speaker 4: Your house, so you know, I said, you have to
- 1:27:40Speaker 4: sleep outside, okay, and I ain't got no.
- 1:27:47Speaker 9: Hair, no umbrella.
- 1:27:48Speaker 5: No, it's just going to roll off. So what happened
- 1:27:56Speaker 5: was is you're in real estate, so you can also
- 1:27:59Speaker 5: speak to this. So I had a tenant.
- 1:28:01Speaker 6: Tenant moved out, the house was abandoned, So I'm just
- 1:28:05Speaker 6: going to assume that the creditors locked the doors because
- 1:28:08Speaker 6: the house was abandoned. Because the house was abandoned, the
- 1:28:10Speaker 6: grass didn't get cut, so they changed the lock. Not
- 1:28:14Speaker 6: my mortgage company, the creditor. Okay, So my realtor was like, hey,
- 1:28:19Speaker 6: Piggy's somebody changed the locks.
- 1:28:21Speaker 5: We can't get in.
- 1:28:21Speaker 9: I'm like, what you're talking about?
- 1:28:22Speaker 5: We calling everybody.
- 1:28:23Speaker 6: So my attorney go down to court and file an
- 1:28:26Speaker 6: emergency motion so that they can change the lots we could.
- 1:28:29Speaker 6: We still till this day, we don't even know who
- 1:28:31Speaker 6: the company is. They didn't show up to court at all.
- 1:28:34Speaker 7: So they tried to force bankruptcy on that house. That's
- 1:28:36Speaker 7: it seems like they.
- 1:28:37Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, The house wasn't delayed on payments.
- 1:28:40Speaker 6: It probably was the HOA. I don't know that to
- 1:28:42Speaker 6: be true because they haven't responded.
- 1:28:45Speaker 5: The house was. The house was occupied for three years
- 1:28:47Speaker 5: and then vacant for two years.
- 1:28:49Speaker 6: So because it was vacant, we're me and my attorneys
- 1:28:52Speaker 6: were just assuming that because it was vacant, they considered
- 1:28:55Speaker 6: it abandoned.
- 1:28:56Speaker 5: And you could do that if you feel like a
- 1:28:57Speaker 5: house is a band years no, no, no, for two months?
- 1:29:01Speaker 6: Yeah, the g again my assumption. So we went to
- 1:29:05Speaker 6: court and I won. Not only did I win, I
- 1:29:08Speaker 6: want attorney's fees. And then obviously we're taking further action
- 1:29:11Speaker 6: because that's really some real reputational damage on somebody when
- 1:29:15Speaker 6: you assuming that they lost their house. You understand what
- 1:29:17Speaker 6: I'm saying, this is an investment property. Then they put
- 1:29:20Speaker 6: my personal house on the internet. It's crazy, but I
- 1:29:22Speaker 6: realized that one people on the internet don't read, okay
- 1:29:27Speaker 6: to just really take a salacious headline. Now, I really
- 1:29:29Speaker 6: realize that now. But I'm so secure within my skin
- 1:29:34Speaker 6: that it don't bother me. I'm like, all right, keep
- 1:29:35Speaker 6: it moving. So now I'm control y'all ass back. So
- 1:29:37Speaker 6: when you see my little skits, that's why you see
- 1:29:39Speaker 6: my skits because if I got you watching, now, I'm

- 1:30:36Speaker 6: leisure and we are doing a online digital YouTube series
- 1:30:42Speaker 6: teaching adults financial literacy.
- 1:30:44Speaker 5: So did y'all see my video that I did Miss

- 1:30:52Speaker 6: it on eight o weeks.
- 1:30:54Speaker 5: All right, ladies and gentlemen, it's Picky co It's the
- 1:30:57Speaker 5: Breakfast Club.
- 1:30:57Speaker 7: Good morning.
- 1:30:58Speaker 5: Let's get to the latest with Lawrence Army coming straight back.
- 1:31:03Speaker 7: She gets somebody that knows somebody.
- 1:31:06Speaker 5: I'm a home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
- 1:31:08Speaker 9: And she'd be having the latest on that's the.
- 1:31:12Speaker 15: Latest with Lauren La Rosa.
- 1:31:14Speaker 9: Sometimes sometimes you have detail, sometimes you have a little bit.
- 1:31:17Speaker 9: Every time brought to you by top.
- 1:31:19Speaker 15: Dog law on the Breakfast Club.
- 1:31:21Speaker 5: Don't talk to me.
- 1:31:23Speaker 22: So it was revealed yesterday that the woman who shot
- 1:31:27Speaker 22: over ten times at Rihanna's home, Evanna Lasette or Tease,
- 1:31:31Speaker 22: will now be stripped of her speech language pathology license.
- 1:31:37Speaker 4: So she had what she should never she's never coming
- 1:31:41Speaker 4: home and it doesn't matter if she got her license enough.
- 1:31:43Speaker 22: The reason why they did that is the reason why
- 1:31:47Speaker 22: they did that is because remember the last update I
- 1:31:48Speaker 22: gave you guys. I said that she was in court,
- 1:31:50Speaker 22: she pled not guilty, and there was a bell that
- 1:31:53Speaker 22: was set. The bell was one point eight seven one
- 1:31:55Speaker 22: point eight seven five million dollars, right. So when the board,
- 1:31:59Speaker 22: when the speech the pathology board in California saw this,
- 1:32:03Speaker 22: they submitted documents because just in case she was ever
- 1:32:06Speaker 22: able to pay that and was released in the time,
- 1:32:09Speaker 22: they want to make sure she isn't able to go
- 1:32:11Speaker 22: out and work, so that's why they did it. And
- 1:32:13Speaker 22: you know, with that job, she would have been able
- 1:32:15Speaker 22: to work in schools, nursing homes, hospitals, working with people
- 1:32:18Speaker 22: who have speech disabilities or you know, stuttering things of
- 1:32:21Speaker 22: that nature.
- 1:32:22Speaker 5: So they just wanted to make sure.
- 1:32:22Speaker 9: That woman need to be in somebody's psych ward forever.
- 1:32:25Speaker 7: Absolutely nobody would hire.
- 1:32:27Speaker 22: Yeah at this point, but you know it's on paper now,
- 1:32:30Speaker 22: all right, and other news. So this is some days old,
- 1:32:34Speaker 22: but wanted to bring the update back here. So you
- 1:32:37Speaker 22: know how Drake and Universal Music Group have been going
- 1:32:39Speaker 22: back and forth. The last time we talked about this,
- 1:32:42Speaker 22: I told you guys that there was a judge that
- 1:32:43Speaker 22: dismissed Drake's defamation lawsuit, saying that not like us can't
- 1:32:48Speaker 22: be taken as facts and that it's you know, it
- 1:32:50Speaker 22: makes no sense to what he's trying to claim. Now
- 1:32:52Speaker 22: they've been Drake has been fighting back against that dismissal.
- 1:32:55Speaker 22: He wants to appeel it, and Universal Music Group is
- 1:32:58Speaker 22: responding to the fact that he fighting back against that
- 1:33:00Speaker 22: dismissal and they're calling him a hypocrite.
- 1:33:03Speaker 15: They're right.
- 1:33:05Speaker 22: So UMG fired back at Drake's appeal, and they say
- 1:33:08Speaker 22: that because on Drake's side, he's saying that the lawsuit
- 1:33:11Speaker 22: is going to destroy how like what artists are allowed
- 1:33:15Speaker 22: to do and how they can weaponize words. But UMG
- 1:33:17Speaker 22: is saying that Drake's lawsuit will destroy hip hop's creative foundation,
- 1:33:20Speaker 22: which is built on wordplay. They're calling him a lawsuit
- 1:33:23Speaker 22: because they point to the fact that Drake used the
- 1:33:25Speaker 22: same platform, UMG's same platform to promote his own lyrics,
- 1:33:29Speaker 22: his own music, and now he's making it seem as
- 1:33:32Speaker 22: if what Kendrick Lamar did was something that was able
- 1:33:35Speaker 22: to actually make people believe that he was indeed a pedophile,
- 1:33:37Speaker 22: but he.
- 1:33:38Speaker 9: Made claims against Kendrick as well. It is absolutely, positively
- 1:33:41Speaker 9: very hypocritical.
- 1:33:43Speaker 22: Yeah, and that's what they're stating, and they wanted it
- 1:33:45Speaker 22: to be clear on paper that that is how they felt.
- 1:33:48Speaker 5: Now Drake will have to answer to this.
- 1:33:50Speaker 22: His answer is supposed to be back in on April seventeenth,
- 1:33:54Speaker 22: and so they're going to be going back and forth
- 1:33:55Speaker 22: from paperwork.
- 1:33:55Speaker 7: I don't know how.
- 1:33:58Speaker 4: It's a disrecord, right, We've heard worst disrecords in the
- 1:34:02Speaker 4: history of hip hop. The fact that you sue for
- 1:34:04Speaker 4: a disrect when you did something just as disrespectful.
- 1:34:07Speaker 9: Yeah, it's crazy.
- 1:34:08Speaker 6: Did he lose any business behind it?
- 1:34:11Speaker 5: Like an he heard that he lost anything. If the
- 1:34:14Speaker 5: case had went forward, he would have had that proved that.
- 1:34:16Speaker 5: But he was claiming that.
- 1:34:17Speaker 22: He was claiming that it caused harm to his business,
- 1:34:20Speaker 22: his brand, and just the safety of him as well
- 1:34:22Speaker 22: too in his family.
- 1:34:23Speaker 8: Drake's prolonged this l I mean, god, Dan, we'd have
- 1:34:26Speaker 8: been over this back for a long time ago if
- 1:34:29Speaker 8: it wasn't for these illegal proceedings.
- 1:34:31Speaker 22: Yeah, okay, yeah, but yeah, so when April seventeen comes,
- 1:34:35Speaker 22: if anything is not pushed, and I will keep you
- 1:34:37Speaker 22: guys updated there as well too. Now, Lotto to Lotto,
- 1:34:42Speaker 22: so a Lotto posted a behind the scenes clip she
- 1:34:46Speaker 22: did the magazine. Remember I told you guys she was
- 1:34:48Speaker 22: on the cover of Paper magazine where she revealed that
- 1:34:50Speaker 22: she was pregnant, along with her new song business in Person.
- 1:34:53Speaker 22: So now she's given us a little bit more details
- 1:34:56Speaker 22: as to her pregnancy. In this behind the scenes video,
- 1:34:59Speaker 22: she reveals well, she says that she's eight months pregnant.
- 1:35:02Speaker 22: But in the clip that you're about to here, she
- 1:35:03Speaker 22: talks about what she wants a boy or girl. Let's
- 1:35:05Speaker 22: take a listen.
- 1:35:06Speaker 15: You know this is a girl.
- 1:35:07Speaker 2: This is.
- 1:35:09Speaker 21: And you know already No I'm not lying, o God,
- 1:35:22Speaker 21: but I'm fine if it's a boy, because you're gonna
- 1:35:26Speaker 21: be upsessed.
- 1:35:27Speaker 5: I know that's right, you know. And where was she at?
- 1:35:32Speaker 22: So she did a it's like a behind the scenes blogs.
- 1:35:35Speaker 22: So first she's yes, that was Fradra from Real House.
- 1:35:40Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:35:40Speaker 22: So I first she's at the photo shoot for the
- 1:35:42Speaker 22: Paper magazine cover and then she goes to they have
- 1:35:45Speaker 22: a party to celebrate the cover, so that like a restaurant.
- 1:35:47Speaker 22: Her friends are their Ninny Leaks and Phaedria, who we've
- 1:35:49Speaker 22: seen photos of at this event.
- 1:35:51Speaker 9: But sleep around.
- 1:35:53Speaker 8: I know that baby was trying to sleep in that
- 1:35:55Speaker 8: womb and she's like, what is this noise coming from
- 1:35:58Speaker 8: mommy dropping a clues bomb for me leads?
- 1:36:03Speaker 5: Yes, Well that is it for the latest this hour
- 1:36:06Speaker 5: for all accidents ahead. It's brought to you by top
- 1:36:08Speaker 5: Dog Law for all accidents big or small, called top
- 1:36:10Speaker 5: Dog Law. Piece of the.
- 1:36:12Speaker 8: Planet, Charlamagne to God, Here and listen. It's time for
- 1:36:14Speaker 8: another shop offy story segment. And I am here with
- 1:36:17Speaker 8: ll cool Bay Lauren Looe. So one of my biggest
- 1:36:19Speaker 8: headaches on the planet today we're talking about something a
- 1:36:22Speaker 8: lot of people dream about, turning passion into.
- 1:36:25Speaker 22: Profit because let's be honest, there are so many people
- 1:36:28Speaker 22: with all these ideas and they just sit write in
- 1:36:30Speaker 22: the notes app. People say, all the time I've been
- 1:36:32Speaker 22: thinking about starting a brand or I've been wanting to
- 1:36:35Speaker 22: launch something, don't do it.
- 1:36:36Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:36:36Speaker 8: The difference between an idea and a business is action
- 1:36:39Speaker 8: you have to execute. If you don't execute, an idea
- 1:36:42Speaker 8: means nothing.
- 1:36:43Speaker 22: So today we are going to highlight some brands that
- 1:36:45Speaker 22: actually took the leap east Side Golf. One of their
- 1:36:47Speaker 22: founders is from Delaware, Scent and Fire and Eve and
- 1:36:51Speaker 22: bars or even bows.
- 1:36:53Speaker 8: We need to fact check that I don't believe anybody's
- 1:36:55Speaker 8: from Delaware is from Delaware, Please don't now. East Side
- 1:36:58Speaker 8: Golf is a great example of what happened when culture
- 1:37:00Speaker 8: meets the traditional industry. They came in and changed the
- 1:37:03Speaker 8: image of golf, bringing style and new energy into the
