It's way up at the Angela Yee. And of course
we got to shine a light on him. There's so
many people I want to shine a light on today,
but in particular, I'm thinking about the fact that we
got to Philly, checked into our hotel and someone was
there who was like, man, I hope you all get

(02:42):
the video of that person who was on ask yee.
You know last week on Friday, somebody called in and
he had a racist neighbor that was harassing him, and

So while we were in Philly, as soon as we
pulled up, we chucked into our hotel. We stayed at
the Ritz Carlton and Shelton was the person who was
the first person we saw YEP when we were there,

(03:35):
and he had to work from three to eleven every day,
so he didn't even get to go to the picnic.
But he was just excited because he actually listens to
this show every day from Philly, and he had listened
on Friday to when we had to ask Yee and
this guy was complaining about his neighbor who was disgusting
and racist and yelling in the background at his children.
We're waiting for this video for him to send us,
so we've been checking the email for him to send

(03:57):
this video through. But just the fact that you know
he listen to the show, he was really excited to
see us, and he also you know, got us a drink.

don't know if you were with me. He also offered
us champagne and is anything he was.

I need to check his blood pressure before and then
after the segment.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
But sometimes Mano gets excited and then sometimes he gets judgmental.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
He gets a little judge.

Speaker 4 (17:40):
He's a little judge judy.

Speaker 11 (17:41):
I really I really feel like, you know, some of
these people call because they want some advice.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
I want to be all right, well that would be
for ask ye right now, tell us a secret judgment
free zone.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Hello, anonymous, call it. Tell us a secret.

Speaker 9 (17:58):
Yeah, I'm a little afraid because I'm no Mano's gonna
judge me.

Speaker 6 (18:01):

Speaker 1 (18:03):
Okay, remember man, No you said you're not.

Speaker 9 (18:06):
Yeah, okay, So my secret is I ended up growing
up fetish for scouting.

Speaker 1 (18:15):

Speaker 9 (18:16):
What do you know what scouting is?

Speaker 4 (18:18):
No?

Speaker 1 (18:19):
What scotting?

Speaker 12 (18:20):
No scotting.

Speaker 9 (18:21):
Scotting is basically you like when people take a number
two on you?

Speaker 12 (18:29):
No no, no, no no, not not on me, not on me.
I just feel like watching like I had this X
ray for one time. The way how I got into it,
I had this ex boyfriend.

Speaker 9 (18:38):
We was on FaceTime and he was like, oh, I'm
gonna have to go ahead and like.

Speaker 6 (18:42):
Call you about because you know, I gotta.

Speaker 9 (18:44):
Go ahead and do the number two. I was like,
whoa my watch? No no no.

Speaker 12 (18:51):
That was after that was after the fat after the FaceTime.
That was about like four days later. I d like
sitting in front of him, like watching him, and I'm
talking about not just watching. I had him grab his
lifted up while I was watching it out.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Oh have you ever seen somebody do groundhogging?

Speaker 4 (19:09):
What's that?

Speaker 9 (19:11):
Oh my gosh, No, I've never seen. Like ironically, the
only time I feel like scouting is like.

Speaker 12 (19:18):
On Google and it was a little too extreme for me.
Me I'm like, I'm not about the extreme mos. I'm
just all about just watching it. And I just feel
like like if I'm talking you and you can do that,
I feel like it makes us find.

Speaker 11 (19:32):
So you you like to watch, right? And then what
you like to have sex after that?

Speaker 10 (19:38):
Oh?

Speaker 12 (19:38):
No, no, no, that's going over. I just like watching
it turns me on.

Speaker 6 (19:42):
Do you wipe his ass?

Speaker 9 (19:44):
It was two times? But it okay, it was two
times and then.

Speaker 12 (19:48):
And then also what I did too, But this is
like lay away on down the line with the same person.

Speaker 9 (19:54):
I wanted to take it up a notch and do
a blunkin.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
Well, what, yes, I've heard of that.

Speaker 9 (20:02):
Oh go ahead, okay, so basically you're performing while there, Yes,

bother you.

Speaker 4 (20:22):
Actually, you love it.

Speaker 6 (20:27):
What the hell is.

Speaker 9 (20:28):
That roll through?

Speaker 6 (20:32):
How do you? How do you even know these names
for this strange behavior?

Speaker 9 (20:37):
Well, you know, when you get into like feta like
steta sharing, you just start, you know, just scoogling things
to see if, like if there's a name for it.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
Has anybody ever paid you to watch them?

Speaker 8 (20:48):
No?

Speaker 12 (20:48):
I've never gotten paid. I've only sold the scouting only
happens with like dudes. I dealt work exclusively, and it
was about like four and the four times that I
brought it to their attention, I was the one that
was taking them out their comfort zone.

Speaker 6 (21:03):
All right, man, you should try it, But I don't
want to try that. I'm not into that.

Speaker 4 (21:08):
Listen.

Speaker 11 (21:10):
Do you like do you like for it to hit
you every now and then? Or you're just not with
that at all?

Speaker 12 (21:16):
No, I'm not. I only like just watching.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Does it have to be solid? What if they?

Speaker 11 (21:21):
Oh God, alright, you're disgusting, right, you're discussing.

Speaker 6 (21:27):
It's you.

Speaker 9 (21:30):
I mean, I mean no, you do not knock it.
I'm going to tell you you haven't.

Speaker 6 (21:34):
Tried it may no, no, no, no, that's not something
that I need to try. I'm cool on that.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
So what if it's diarrhea, doesn't matter.

Speaker 9 (21:41):
Okay, So if this is diarrhere, it was kind of like,
you know, throw me off, but you know why not?

Speaker 1 (21:48):
Okay? What if he eats corn? Do you ever see?

Speaker 8 (21:51):
Like up?

Speaker 4 (21:55):
Questions?

Speaker 11 (21:56):
One more question is this though, Like it's not the
same as just leaving the door open while I sit
down and you just walking by?

Speaker 6 (22:03):
You want to get closed?

Speaker 8 (22:06):
No?

Speaker 9 (22:06):
I literally I literally sit down. Like how Kashan was
doing what blue face? How he was on the toilet
and she was sitting right next to.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
Him, she watches.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
Okay, absolutely, well, thank you for sharing.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
You learned groundhogging?

Speaker 6 (22:26):
And now you do you think you're disgusting? Question? Well,
it's a question.

Speaker 9 (22:34):
I don't necessarily think that I am disgusting. I think
that I'm unique and different.

Speaker 6 (22:41):
Okay, that's a question, that's right, that's right.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
I am a difference.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yes, you are smart, you are beautiful, you are kind,
you are.

Speaker 9 (22:54):
Already you already know and and let me pray something
and let me pay somebody. You may stay right now? Oh, no,
I'm not into that. But I guarantee you probably one
of those dudes that be m the dams like oh hey,
what's like you still want.

Speaker 6 (23:07):
You think i'd be in the dams like that?

Speaker 1 (23:08):
Let it be the right one? Is that what you
believe you already?

Speaker 9 (23:12):
Let let it be the right move.

Speaker 4 (23:14):
I just got star baby said she wanted to watch it.

Speaker 6 (23:20):
It really wouldn't be me doing nothing but sitting on
the toilet and letting it go.

Speaker 11 (23:24):
If you want to watch, okay, you are with it,
then right, No, but I don't want you watching watch
from a distance like you know.

Speaker 9 (23:30):

Speaker 4 (23:48):
You don't think you don't believe it.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
I believe it. It was too yeah different, Yeah, no judgment.
All right.

Speaker 3 (23:56):
Well, when we come back, we have a yet, and
Chili admits that she and I sure was still in
contact even when he was married. It took a while
for her to get over there. We saw Usher over
the weekend too, at the Ros picnic. But we'll talk
about it when we come back. It's way up at
Angela yee.

Speaker 9 (24:10):
She's like like they.

Speaker 7 (24:11):

Yes, it is way up at Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee.
And Jasmine from the Jasmine brand is here.

Speaker 4 (24:24):
Happy Monday, guys.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
Yes, it's a happy Monday for us. Back at work.
Back to the work week. I feel like I worked
all weekend.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
Yeah, because she did.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Mano's here.

Speaker 6 (24:32):
Yes, I am. What's happening?

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Tell us too many Jesus that you have a friend
of you. I mean, that's ridiculous.

Speaker 6 (24:39):
This is crazy, says you with all O seventeen, I
have found you.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
Ess, I got to take a picture of this. Suppose
this is ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (24:47):
I'd also like to say while you're taking the picture
that Mayo acts like he bought me cheese. It's today.
That's a lot, and he actually bought them for himself.

Speaker 6 (24:54):
Okay, I was even eating. Jesus, I thought of coming
from here.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
That's true.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Okay, they always give you to on the flight.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
They do.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
We need to cheese. Its endorsement.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
That's why just put the box on the floor all.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
Right now, let's talk about what went on on this flight.
So Chica, who's She's an artist. She was nominated for
a Grammy for Best New Artists. And she's a freshman
class a double XL. In twenty twenty, she was on
one of the on the cover as one of the freshmen.

Speaker 9 (25:20):
Right.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
She was on a flight.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
It was a red eye and apparently she had some
issues with some children who were on the flight, some babies.
She put the lady next to me who thought it
would be a good idea to buy yourself and your
twin infants first class seats on a red eye flight,
who just woke me up by bringing your screaming bastet
to our seats to sooth? I just put thirty four
dollar Wi Fi at four am to.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Call you a stupid b Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (25:43):
Then she said, ps, I hate you and hope you
get a paper cup between each finger tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
You sense this, wench. Then she said, like, are you
literally mentally delayed?

Speaker 3 (25:51):
What makes you think a one year olbo shut there
be a up on a seven hour flight that takes
off at one f and a m. You already had
them up has bedtime. I don't care the circumstance, take
your ass to economy at least. Well, it turns out,
first of all, before anybody even knew who these children were,
people were horrified that you would send out these messages

(26:12):
about babies on a flight. We've all been on flights
and children have cried. But you know, yeah, babies are babying.

Speaker 4 (26:21):
Yeah, it's on brand for babies to cry.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
And then also to say like you should go to
economy like it's okay if it's an economy, you know,
and they also give you air plugs, so if there's
anything happening on the flight that bothers you, you can
put some air plugs in on a red eye flight
and go to sleep.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
But babies are babying, there's nothing that you can do
about it.

Speaker 8 (26:40):
You know.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Now, if kids are kicking your seat, you can turn
around and tell the parent, excuse me, could you? Yeah,
that's something different that can be handled, But I don't
know how much you can do about that. It turns
out that one of the kids that was acting up
was Zanik's child. Yeah, Zanik storter, she said, wait, I'm
in tears, not chikab, but was mad my child was
cutting up in first class.

Speaker 1 (27:00):
You should have just sat there and been mad.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
Babes, she's sky priority a f and it turned into
a whole lot of things on social media. But she
did apologize, and she said, posting because I think it's
important and because I want I understand that people who
actually do want to support me were also offended by
my inflammatory threat yesterday. I'm sorry because it was triggering,
infuriating to many. I just don't like being seen as

(27:21):
someone I'm not. Here's what Chica had to say.

Speaker 8 (27:25):
I slept for two days and also I had as
I had a really bad thought and I had to
pack my bags to be in my city to do
this goddamn show.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
It's just like, see, she's terrible.

Speaker 8 (27:39):
I'm like, it's been a year and a half, I
said to nobody and minding my goddamn business in one minute,
you know, I mean manager, And I'm like, you let
me let the chopa say, let me say something I
wouldn't ordinarily say what I feel in this moment.

Speaker 4 (27:58):
She's blaming it on having a man, and she said
she was kind of talking low right, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
And you know she's talked previously about her ongoing battle
with depression and things like that and so has Zenique
by the way, as nig did respond and discuss that
and say that there are many different ways that that
could have been handled as a person who herself struggles.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
With you know with that as well.

Speaker 6 (28:20):
So we didn't know each other, No they do. Now,
so what is this the same incident with somebody said
that she was smelling.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
Yes, yes, and so the person that was actually on
the flight with the kids responded, beautiful roses her name
on social media.

Speaker 4 (28:33):
But it was not Zonique that was the the on
the plane with her daughter. It was this woman that
Angela was talking about.

Speaker 3 (28:38):
Now, yeah, she said, you stupid ab that was me
you were sitting next to. So let me enlighten you,
dumb hoe. They weren't twin one year olds. When was
my four year old child? And the other crying baby
you're referring to was my niece za Niqu's baby and
she is two years old. Eure upset because she woke
up for three minutes crying out her sleep like most
effing children. I did immediately calm her by holding her
and talking to her because it was dark as hell.

(28:58):
I can't believe you are that sensitive. When she woke
up once on a five hour flight from LA And
second off, it wasn't your seat from the beginning. You
switched with someone else and satch a fat ass next
to me and let me express the funk that you
bought on top of that. Oh, it goes on from there,
all the negativity. The main thing is sometimes things happen
on flights. Babies cry, You could be annoyed. Text your friend,

(29:20):
don't go on social media.

Speaker 4 (29:22):
That's a good Yeah, that's a good lesson.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
All right, that is your yee t. And when we
come back, we have under the radar. These are stories
that are not necessarily in the headlines, but you should
know about them. It's way up with Angela yee.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
The news news. This in the news that relates to you.
These stories are flying under the radar.

Speaker 3 (29:40):
Yes, it's way up with Angela yee. I'm Angela yee.
Jasmine is here and Mano is here. Yes, and let's
do under the radar now. Apple is unveiling its most
ambitious new hardware product in years, and they revealed all
of this Monday. They actually kick off their Worldwide Developers
Conference today and they're gonna introduce a mixed reality headset

(30:02):
that offers both VR and augmented reality. Both virtual reality
and augmented reality. It's a technology that overlays virtual images
on live video of the real world.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
So it's highly.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Anticipated this would be their biggest launch of new hardware
since the Apple Watch came out in twenty fifteen.

Speaker 4 (30:20):
Okay, Apple Watch was a big deal.

Speaker 6 (30:21):
Yeah, so you'll be walking around walking down the street
in VA. Yes you can, And it's says walking down
the street.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
I don't know if that's safe.

Speaker 4 (30:30):
Maybe you need to be sit still while you've had
this reality headset on.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
Crazy all right.

Speaker 3 (30:34):
Apple may also be talking today about how they plan
to incorporate AI into more of its products and services
to keep pace with the renewed arms raceover technology in
Silicon Valley. So that event will be live streamed on
Apple's website and YouTube. It starts at actually it started
I will starts at one pm Eastern, so in a
couple of hours you'll be able to watch that.

Speaker 6 (30:55):
All right.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Would you get this for free?

Speaker 4 (30:57):
I will.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
It's free. Of course, nobody would.

Speaker 4 (31:00):
Take you for free. Yeah, it's free. I'll try it.

Speaker 1 (31:02):
I think we need to make sure we know what's
going on. It's important. Yeah, we got to keep on
do y'all have chat GPT and everything downloaded.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
I haven't download I haven't used it yet. Have you
got to start using it?

Speaker 1 (31:10):
Yeah, I'm trying to get chat GPT chat GPT.

Speaker 4 (31:14):
Yeah, what's that?

Speaker 1 (31:15):
That's like that?

Speaker 3 (31:17):
It's like a personal I don't know if it's really
an assistance. I can be, but a lot of people
are using it. Like let's say you're trying to put
together your online dating profile. They can create like a
profile for you. Or we were talking about this earlier.
Somebody was trying to lose weight and chat GPT put
together a whole running plan for them.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
So there's a lot of different ways to use it.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
This is, you know, one of the things with writers,
you want to make sure that people are writing things
and not chat GPT.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
But they can put together all the data.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
I feel like it's like Google on steroids, but it
actually executes.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
It does.

Speaker 4 (31:47):
Yeah, it does, so like it actually executes.

Speaker 3 (31:49):
You should try it, man, I think it would be
good for you. Yeah, let's all download it and work.

Speaker 6 (31:53):
I think I haven't been online dating.

Speaker 4 (31:57):
Oh you definitely should do that, you know, I don't
know if you and you're just trying to find me
a man earlier today, but you got men's okay, all right,
everybody relaxed.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
All right, now, Deadly heart attacks are more common on Mondays,
according to a shocking study.

Speaker 1 (32:10):
Today's Monday.

Speaker 3 (32:11):
Okay, So they're saying the most dangerous type of heart attack,
which is known as a stemmy ste m I, is
more likely to occur on a Monday than any other
day of the week. And they said there was also
an unusual uptick on Sundays and the most likely reason
is that people are stressed about having to go back
to work, and so that's what they think is likely
the reason. Due to that type of stress, they said,

(32:32):
increased stress leads to rising levels of the stress hormone cortisol,
which is linked to.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
A higher risk of heart attack. That makes sense, though, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:40):
You know how when you hate your job or you're like, man,
I got all this stuff to do this week, You're
coming off an amazing weekend and you're like.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
I got to go to work.

Speaker 6 (32:48):
So many people live like that.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've lived like that in my lifetime too.

Speaker 4 (32:52):
I've definitely had that experience too. What about you, MANA, No,
I'm good, got you.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
Blessed Monday and Friday is the same thing Wednesday Monday.

Speaker 6 (33:04):
Because if you think about it like that, then it's
easier for you to consume things. It's easy for you
to you know.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
But for some people, like they look forward to the
weekend because then they know they have their nine to
five to go back to.

Speaker 6 (33:15):
That's the problem. Yeah, I believe.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, I mean it is different though. You know, Fridays
be fun Thursday.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
When you're clocking out on a Friday, baby, let me
tell you, right.

All right, let's go be productive.

Speaker 4 (33:33):
I like Mondays.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
If I hate what I'm doing, let me try to
get on it. And it's another chance to clean the
slate and work on something else and try to figure
out how to get out.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Of this situation.

Speaker 4 (33:42):
Yep, let's try to figure it out, all right.

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Well, that is your under the radar. No, don't forget.

And you know, we were at the Roots Picnic over
the weekend doing lift Service live and Usher was just
walking around the Roots Picnic. He got added toward the end.
I guess Diddy wasn't doing it, and then Usher was
added on to it, which is huge. People were so excited.
So he headlined there. We actually saw him in the
hotel lobby too, we did.

Speaker 4 (34:43):
I couldn't get on an elevator because of him.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Yeah, actually that was interesting.

Speaker 3 (34:46):
The elevator stopped, she went to get on, and the
security win letter on because Usher was on the elevator.

Speaker 4 (34:50):
Yeah, but we didn't realize it was usher until we
got in the lobby and he was sitting at the
like in the bar area.

Speaker 6 (34:55):
So he stuck his hand out and was like, you
can't get.

Speaker 4 (34:57):
He gave me the church finger, the one church finger,
but I couldn't see wh I didn't think that.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
Security was like no, ma'am. I was talking about this earlier.
Have you ever been in the elevator with somebody famous?
And I actually one time was in the elevator with
James Brown. James Brown got to the elevator. I was
at the Roosevelt Hotel in La so random and I
was going to my room end of the night. I'm
in the elevator and then James Brown got on. You

Chili said that she struggled to get over Usher for
years and she has no hard feelings. She was talking
to people, and she said we definitely had some chemistry,
but working chemistry does not mean it worked in your
personal life. If we were working, it was great, but
outside of that, we're so different. And she said that
fans did root for their relationship because it looked great,
but there were issues behind the scenes, as he had
to be a certain way with me and he couldn't.

(36:12):
And she said the album Confessions was not about her,
but she said she was at the studio the whole
time that he recorded the project. She said they suffered
from trust issues and opposing value. She said, I love heart.
I was like, God, why can't I get over this?
He couldn't either. She cut off contact with him in
twenty nineteen in an effort to focus on herself, and
she said she also stopped dating around that time. She said,
I thought if I met the right guy during that

(36:33):
time that I wasn't over us, sure it wouldn't work.
I would never want to straddle the fence, but there's
no hard feelings when it comes to him and She's
glad things worked out the way they did.

Speaker 4 (36:41):
I've definitely had a guy that it took me a
long time to get over.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
Have you had that?

Speaker 6 (36:44):
No?

Speaker 4 (36:45):
She said, angel doesn't have those issues. You're not over
him yet, right, I think yeah, I think so. I
think yeah, I think so.

Speaker 6 (36:50):
Not one hundred percent.

Speaker 4 (36:51):
Sure, you listen, you never know. I recover quick, you
do because sometimes wrong with ANGELA. That's why I recover quick,
all right.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
Jamil Hill has a dress report that she she is
leaving Spotify and that she wanted a hundred million dollars
to stay and they couldn't come to any resolution. She
posted a lot of what's been reported just isn't true.
My podcast hasn't been canceled. I never asked Spotify for
one hundred million dollars. This is is truly comical. Next
week's guest is Sabrina El but she goes on to

(37:18):
list the guests coming up Blair Underwear, Kenny Lattimore j R.
Smith and Moore. So people were saying all kinds of
untrue things.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
I know how that can be.

Speaker 4 (37:26):
Yeah, for sure, I like her podcast. She does have
some good guests too.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
Yeah, And I like Jamil Hill, period I think she
does a great job at what she does. And I
see the type of people that want to see her
lose yep, and those are great enemy.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
She's a didn't want to be friends arning of them.

Speaker 8 (37:42):
Right.

Speaker 4 (37:42):
She's in a male dominated industry as well, hm sports.

Speaker 3 (37:45):
And she's outspoken even when it comes to politics, and
you know what that brings with it. Yeah, all right, Drake,
people are talking about, for some reason, his yellow and
blue nail polish. I don't know the meaning behind the
nail polish, but his nails are yellow and he has
one blue fingernail, so I don't know what that's for,
if it's representing something, But for some reason, people are

(38:06):
really talking about that.

Speaker 4 (38:07):
Angela has a yellow nail polish on. May know, Would
I did this before Drake? I just want to point
that out.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
That is the worst.

Speaker 3 (38:13):
I don't want anybody thinking my nails are yellow like
I'm following. You absolutely did it. I did it first,
you did it today? No, you did it after, Drake
are broken and grown out? Anyway, May know, would you
ever do like one one like a black or a No?

Speaker 6 (38:25):
Okay, no fingernail painting?

Speaker 4 (38:28):
All right? My first response is no, but you never know.
I have you told me about it?

Speaker 6 (38:36):
Yeah, what colors was?

Speaker 1 (38:37):
Now black?

Speaker 4 (38:38):
It has to be black. I can't do no other color,
so black is acceptable. I'm clear. It's always accepted a.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
Rock star thing though. Yeah, a lot of people rockstar. Yes,
it's rockstar. I used to work for now Rogers.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
He paints his fingernails.

Speaker 11 (38:53):
I'm not I'm not a fan, but I'm not sure
that you meet that's not even in the business runs
around with black now probably I'm telling me he's.

Speaker 6 (39:00):
A rock star.

Speaker 4 (39:01):
Yes, that's what you're No, I'm not telling you that that's.

Speaker 6 (39:06):
A rockstar anything.

Speaker 3 (39:09):
And at some point, I want to talk about this show,
the Idol, because you know what premiered yesterday, that's the
weekend show that he's starring in. And I don't know
if any of y'all watched it, but hit me up
on Twitter or on Instagram at way up with ye.
I want to hear what y'all had to say about it.
And I'm a chime in on that a little bit later.
But it is a Monday, so it's time for some
Monday main ovation. You have your money Maynovation ready?

Speaker 6 (39:33):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (39:34):
When we come back, then we come back. Yeah, he
had an active weekend. So it's the way yup with
Angela Yee.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
Yays you back at it. Bring the way up with
Angela Yee is on.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
Yes, it's way up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee.
And Jasmine is here on our Monday.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Yes, happy Monday.

Speaker 3 (39:53):
And speaking of Mondays, you know we've been talking about
how Mondays are important to get your week started off right. Well,
it is time to get your week satured off the
right way because we are blessed to have some Monday mainnovation.

Speaker 6 (40:08):
Never you is ok?

Speaker 11 (40:13):
Yeah, yeah, mainn ovation. Stay on your lane. Nothing more
important than staying in your lane. Life is like a highway, right.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
Life is a highway right.

Speaker 6 (40:26):
Oh night, So life is a highway. Right, then we
gotta stay in our lanes right on the journey, staying
lane because if you spend too much time looking at
other cars going by, what what's gonna happen? You're gonna crash.

Speaker 11 (40:37):
Stay in your lane, master, what you do don't matter
that you might be only going twenty miles per hour
and other people might be flying by you.

Speaker 6 (40:46):
Right.

Speaker 11 (40:46):
But but but here's the thing that in front of me,
at least you got motion Okay, slow motion better than
no motion, baby, Stay in your lane.

Speaker 3 (40:55):
Stay your lane. Life is a highway righted. Slow motion
better than no motion.

Speaker 4 (41:00):
Being over a lot of gems in that one, a
lot of germs.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
You know what they always say, it's fire.

Speaker 3 (41:06):
Staying in your laying comparison kills creativity and joy.

Speaker 1 (41:10):
That's another saying.

Speaker 3 (41:10):
So if you're worried about what everybody else is doing,
you're comparing yourself to everybody around you, you know what
I'm saying, and that is going to kill your creativity.
If you're trying to do what they're doing or trying
to do it better than they did it, just do
it to the best of your ability.

Speaker 11 (41:23):
Because you spending too much time worrying about what they're doing,
and that's energy wasted that you could be using for yourself.

Speaker 6 (41:29):
Right you in your car and you're looking over here,
like man, what's going on?

Speaker 8 (41:32):
You?

Speaker 6 (41:33):
Boom Wow?

Speaker 4 (41:34):
The Angela and Maino speaking tour. It starts this fall. Yeah,
they will be at a theater near you. They do
birthday parties. Bar mitzvahs.

Speaker 3 (41:43):
Jealousy and insecure that that can definitely destroy you. Shut
you up when you start thinking too much about other
people and thinking like why do they have this?

Speaker 1 (41:52):
Why don't I have that?

Speaker 3 (41:53):
When you start waking up thinking about that, it's not
your mind that will eat away at you personally.

Speaker 4 (41:59):
It's so counter productive to you.

Speaker 11 (42:01):
Should look at it as you are your only rival,
you versus you, you mastering you, you pushing you.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
Period and Plus, sometimes you don't know what people are
really doing. You know what they you know the results,
you know what?

Speaker 3 (42:15):
Maybe you also know what they put out there that's
the results. They might not even be the real results,
know what I'm saying, Maybe some.

Speaker 6 (42:21):
Of the things that they want you to see. So
you should definitely not be paying attention because you don't
know what somebody struggles off, don't know what they're going through.

Speaker 4 (42:27):
That's a good message, especially in this era of social
media where we look at what people have and what
they have going on in their success and man I
wish I was like, mano, you know what I'm.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
Saying, Yeah, the hand of God.

Speaker 4 (42:44):
Come upon you.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
All right, Well that's what it is. Mind your business.
Stay business.

Speaker 6 (42:53):
That wasn't part of it, but it is.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
Minding your business too, right.

Speaker 4 (42:58):
Mind the business that pays you. The tour for the
angel speeding we do what you said, we do birthday parties.
Bar mitzvahs, Sweet sixteen. Well, yes, you're gonna do it.
You're gonna do these strip clubs.

Speaker 3 (43:15):
Wherever he wants to go, everywhere. Tell all the dances,
staying ling that song.

Speaker 4 (43:21):
Stay in your legs. Don't worry about what doing one
on ones, maybe sliding down the pall.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
Some people are good at that, you know. Some people
are good at walking around and checking.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
Now you just checked, stop it now, you just check.

Speaker 3 (43:39):
All right, Well, that was Monday Innovation for you guys.
And basically the moral of the story.

Speaker 6 (43:45):
Is stay in your life.

Speaker 3 (43:48):
And when we come back. I want to talk about
this show, the Idol. There's been a lot of buzz
about this show happening. This came on HBO last night,
the first episode, and I tell you what people are
saying about it. I actually watched it, so I'll tell
you what I what I thought of it as well,
And if anybody else watched it, I would appreciate y'all
just chiming in. If you tweet me right now. My

(44:08):
Rega tweets on the air it's way up with Angela.

Speaker 1 (44:11):
Yee, you ride the way up with Angela.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
Yes, it is way up with Angela Yee.

Speaker 1 (44:20):
I'm Angela yee.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
Jasmine's here from the Jasmine Brandy and Mano is here
and we're getting ready to interview Deborah Roberts. She has
this book out called Lessons Learned and Cherished The Teacher
who Changed My Life?

Speaker 1 (44:34):
Now, Mana, do you have any teachers who changed your life?

Speaker 6 (44:38):
Miss foul so me and she had a nice walk,
you know.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
Come on stop it now, I'm talking about education wise.
Maybe somebody that was like, you're gonna be something, young man, Jermaine,
I don't remember what about sports, If you played any
sports I saw, yeah, basketball was trash, but other things.

Speaker 6 (45:00):
Who's basketball with minds? Did you see that?

Speaker 1 (45:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (45:03):
I never saw that. My basketball game was immaculated.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
Shout out to your coach.

Speaker 6 (45:07):
Then, nah, I don't think Miss Weeks. I remember right now.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
What do you remember about Miss Weeks? I'm serious because
this is maybe third grade mm hmm, and well it
was so great.

Speaker 6 (45:20):
She was just extra caring. You know, black kids and
growing up in a ghetto, young black males need attention,
mean help.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
All right, You know what about you, jas When you
have teachers you remember, yeah, I remember Miss Catania, Okay,
miss cat That was third grade, and that I remember
my principal, mister Freeman. He was a black man. It's
not it wasn't a lot of black principles in Omaha, Nebraska.
So yep, Omaha Nebraska.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
Let's not forget it.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
Well, listen, you know, at one point I wanted to
be a teacher in my life, and so that was
a great experience. I see how difficult it is for
teachers to have to be there every day dealing with
so many students with so many differ personalities. But not
only different personalities, but they have to bring with them
from their home life. A lot of times these kids
have things going on at home that you have no

(46:08):
idea about, right, you know. And then a lot of
times students, the way that they interact with each other,
you have to really watch that.

Speaker 1 (46:15):
I remember there was one kid when I taught.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
It was in Washington Heights and the school was ninety
five percent Dominican, and so there were only a few
black kids in the class, and they used to one
of them in particular, they would make fun of him
because he was Haitian and the rest of the kids
were Dominican. And it's a while ago, so hopefully it's
not like that anymore, you know, and just understanding, like
when kids are making fun of other kids, what's going

(46:38):
on at home, the reasons why there was one kid
that was always coming to school, but he would never
he would never come to school when they was a test,
and so he kept getting left back, you know, because
of that. And then I remember just talking to him
afterwards and then making him catch up on school work
and stay after school so that he could be on points,
because you know, that's the worst. You don't know what's
going on, and a lot of times these teachers are overwhelmed.

(46:59):
They don't have time necessarily for all the individual attention
when there's thirty five kids in the classroom, yes, and
they all have different things going on. So shout out
to all the teachers out there who are doing an
amazing job with the students and who really really care
and care about their work. We know it's not easy
at all, all right, when we come back, Deborah Roberts
is joining us. She is an ABC News she I mean,

(47:21):
she's amazing. She's just been doing her thing for a
long time, started off on the local television station and
now she's an award winning journalist, and she's also an
author New York Times bestselling author Lessons Learned and Cherished,
And I can't wait for you guys to hear this conversation.
It's way up with Angela Yee. All right, it's way
up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee, and Jasmine from

(47:43):
the Jasmine brand dot Com is here, and Deborah Roberts
is here with me, or should I say.

Speaker 1 (47:48):
New York Times bestselling author, thank you?

Speaker 3 (47:52):
Deborah Roberts is here, but you also know her as
being the ABC News Senior National Affairs correspondent.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Thank you and welcome for coming to the show.

Speaker 7 (48:00):
Thank you for having me.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
I'm so thrilled to I said that wrong. Welcome and
thank you for coming to the show. Okay, I must
be nervous.

Speaker 4 (48:06):
We understood it.

Speaker 5 (48:06):
I didn't.

Speaker 4 (48:07):
I didn't. I was like, did I say that wrong?

Speaker 7 (48:09):
I didn't even notice.

Speaker 3 (48:10):
But Lessons Learned and cherish the teacher who changed my life.
You have put together this anthology of different people talking
about how teachers have affected their lives.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
And I love that you did this.

Speaker 4 (48:21):
Oh.

Speaker 7 (48:22):
You and I talked about this last year when I
was still putting it together, and you liked the idea
at that point.

Speaker 3 (48:27):
Yes, at that time, I remember you were even hesitant
about coming out right because your husband, I Wurker, was
but he was like, go, yes exactly.

Speaker 7 (48:37):
I was trying to remember that you're absolutely right. That
was the first event that I stepped out into having
gone through this this major illness with.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
All Right, and I see he's back walking again.

Speaker 7 (48:47):
Yes, he's walking. We had to get him up just going.

Speaker 4 (48:50):
He was limping.

Speaker 7 (48:50):
He got the knee replaced. Now he's walking better. So
now we hope he has parts of just been changed out.
We got a new model.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
He's ready together. Parts have been change okay, Disney.

Speaker 7 (49:05):
A couple of interior points, but other than that, he's good.

Speaker 3 (49:09):
You know what's interesting because even in the beginning of
the book you talk about being in fourth grade and schools.
We don't even realize that schools have not been desegregated
for that long.

Speaker 7 (49:19):
Certainly in the South.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
So in the fourth grade, that's that.

Speaker 7 (49:22):
Was when we desegregated schools. So I was in small
town Georgia, Perry, Georgia, and in the middle of the
school year in fourth grade, for me, that was it.
We're integrating and I changed schools, and as I said,
it was like going to the moon. For some of
us kids, We're all looking at each other, white kids,
black kids, trying to figure each other out. It was
really fascinating. But I have to tell you, I really

(49:45):
took to a new environment, a new experience, new people,
new friends.

Speaker 13 (49:50):
You know.

Speaker 7 (49:51):
Of course, it was jarring for a lot of us,
but I just sort of took to and maybe that
was just sort of my persona. I wanted to discover
something new. The world was new, and sadly, we also
discovered the resources were greater, right, and we had not
had great resources in our segregated schools, so we suddenly
had better resources too in these other schools.

Speaker 4 (50:10):
So it was it was a whole new world.

Speaker 6 (50:12):
In a way.

Speaker 3 (50:12):
We are talking to award winning journalist Deborah Roberts, so
let's talk about these teachers. Because I feel like when
I was in elementary school, I remember going to kindergarten
for the first time. I have an older brother and
he's a year older, and I wanted to go to
school so bad, right because every day he was going
to school.

Speaker 1 (50:30):
And coming home and I'm like I would cry, like
I want to go to school.

Speaker 3 (50:33):
I want to go to school too, and so my
birthdays in January. So I actually started kindergarten in fourth grade.

Speaker 1 (50:39):
I mean when I was four years.

Speaker 3 (50:41):
I don't know why I'm messing everything up today, but
I started kindergarten.

Speaker 1 (50:44):
When I was four, yes, very young. And so I
went to school.

Speaker 3 (50:47):
And the first day I went to school and came
back and I was crying and saying, I didn't want
to go to school anymore?

Speaker 4 (50:52):
What was bothering you about?

Speaker 1 (50:54):
She wasn't very nice?

Speaker 4 (50:55):
Yeah, okay like that.

Speaker 3 (50:56):
When we were she was very strict, and we used
to have to raise our hands to go to the
bathroom and sometimes she would say, no, that is crazy.
And I definitely pee my pants a couple of times,
and my mom would have to come to school with
my pants like folded up and change my When you
were young, two, your four, Yeah, I'm you scared to ask.

Speaker 7 (51:15):
Yeah, And you probably also thought it was just this
magical thing, go to school. It sounds so great, and
then you got there and you realized there were rules
and yeah, restrictions, and there was learning going on.

Speaker 3 (51:25):
But I do remember the teachers. They stand out the
most of me are the ones that were amazing, and
then the ones that weren't. You know, but I also know,
like you said, teachers do have it really rough. Yeah,
and they have to always be on.

Speaker 1 (51:36):
Think about it. You can't go to school and.

Speaker 6 (51:38):
Not be on.

Speaker 7 (51:39):
That's a lot. But you hit on a good point
that I found when I was talking to people about
the book. Not every teacher is warm and fuzzy and cozy,
And that is not what the descriptions were from people
whom I talked to, right. They weren't all saying, oh,
I had the warmest, kindest teacher ever. Some of them
talked about tough experiences.

Speaker 1 (51:58):
I had a good win.

Speaker 7 (52:00):
Her teacher was very tough. In fact, did something which
today most of us would probably consider maybe a little cruel.
When Melody missed a spelling word on a test and
if everybody got it correctly and they had one hundred percent,
they would get two Girl Scout cookies. And she was
so excited and she missed a word, and she really

(52:20):
misheard the words, so she put it in past tense
instead of present tense, so she essentially had the words
spelled right, but she just had the wrong tense and
she missed it. And when the teacher said to the class, well,
I don't want everybody to suffer because Melody missed it.
And Melody thought, oh good yay, she's going to make
an exception. And she said, so, Melody, why don't you
leave the room and we will have our cookies and

(52:41):
you will not. And she walked out, and she said
she remembered looking in the window seeing the other kids
having their cookies. But Melody said that that was a
lesson that taught her grit and determination and tenacity, and
that she thinks the teacher did it to her because
she thought she could handle it. She wanted Melody to
write to excellence, to the top, and that was what

(53:03):
that lesson was about. So it's it wasn't always about,
you know, warm kind lessons. But Melody thinks that she
has become the woman that she is. That words tightened
partly because she has some tough.

Speaker 4 (53:14):
Lessons in life.

Speaker 3 (53:15):
We are talking to award winning journalists Deborah Roberts. But
you know, it can't dictate what to do for a living, because,
like you said, missus Hardy told you she thought that
you were super smart and that really encouraged you as
far as writing too.

Speaker 7 (53:28):
And grammar and all of those things that would lead
to public speaking. Missus Hardy was very much about diction
and speaking properly, and in her class she was that
consummate English teacher, dressed impeccably, and she demanded excellence in English.
And I think that's one of the reasons today I
correct my children all the.

Speaker 4 (53:45):
Time, all the time.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
With these kids with these phones texting, they don't write
words out exactly to decipher what it means.

Speaker 1 (53:53):
They don't do long division, no, no.

Speaker 7 (53:55):
They definitely don't do that. But Leela will text me
and then if she misspells something or maybe she has
the tense wrong, she will correct it right Away's mom,
I meant to say, such as, all that's funny, and
it's funny because she knows, she knows it's.

Speaker 1 (54:08):
Gonna be like, ma'am.

Speaker 3 (54:10):
Because that matters with dating too, I feel like too.
I mean, you haven't dated in a long time.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Yeah, it's gonna work.

Speaker 3 (54:15):
But when it comes to dating and guys, I pay
attention to how men text you and how they communicate
with you, because you want them to make the effort
to spell things right, write out the words exactly.

Speaker 7 (54:28):
I hate when people write your y ou are instead
of wyou apostrophe are e. It drives me nuts in
a text message. I hate that now Sometimes the phone
does auto correct, so I will give them the benefit
of the down there and somebody says you're special while
you are special, it makes me nuts.

Speaker 4 (54:45):
That's missus Hardy. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (54:47):
I hate when I write where are you going and
it tans and said where you.

Speaker 7 (54:53):
I haven't seen it.

Speaker 4 (54:54):
I like that I haven't gotten Now I'm trying to
curse and it keeps correcting. No, I'm trying to do this.

Speaker 1 (55:01):
But you know what's one really actually made me tear up.

Speaker 3 (55:04):
One of the stories in here because you have, you know,
a lot of different really notable people from all different
walks of life talking about their experiences.

Speaker 1 (55:11):
With their teachers. Rosie Perez, when you read her story.

Speaker 3 (55:15):
About her teacher who he didn't even know he affected
her the way that he did, it's going to make
you be like, yes, you know.

Speaker 7 (55:22):
That was almost in two years when Rosie told me
the story, and I had heard before that she grew
up in foster care, but when she talked about the
details of being this very insecure, shy little girl who
had a speech impediment, and you know, her English was
not that great, and this teacher saw something in her
just that she needed kindness and encouragement, and how he
encouraged her to do things like dance when they had

(55:43):
a little dance contest, or to play softball and raise
her hand in class and told her you are smart.
She said, I'm not smart. Yes, you are smart, and
a fire was sort of lit in her that she
actually began to believe in herself because this teacher gave her,
in a way, permission to believe even herself when she
didn't think she could and should. And I just love

(56:03):
that story.

Speaker 1 (56:04):
That's so is amazing. She reconnected with him too, Yes.

Speaker 7 (56:07):
After she did do the right thing.

Speaker 1 (56:08):
Yeah, he called her up and she was just so touched.
All right, it's way yup, put Angela yee.

Speaker 3 (56:12):
We have Deborah Roberts here with us, somebody who I
admire and respect greatly.

Speaker 1 (56:16):
I watch her on the news all the time.

Speaker 3 (56:18):
She's an award winning journalist and also the New York
Times best selling author of Lessons Learned and Cherished, the
teacher who changed my life.

Speaker 1 (56:25):
We have more with her when we come back.

Speaker 6 (56:27):
Is she back at it?

Speaker 1 (56:30):
Were up with Angela?

Speaker 9 (56:31):
Ye is on.

Speaker 1 (56:32):
What's up? It's way yup.

Speaker 3 (56:32):
Put Angela yee. I'm Angela Yee, and Jasmine is here
with me. We're talking to Deborah Roberts about her new book,
Lessons Learned and Cherished, The Teacher who Changed My Life.
One thing I like about this too is I told
you this when we were at the Library Lions gala.
But I wanted to be a teacher at one point
in my life. When I was in college, I did
urban education semester and so I was teaching in Washington

(56:54):
Heights and it was what I kind of wanted to
do because I think being able to affect life in
that way it is so important. The job that teachers
have is one of the most important jobs because these
kids today have so much to deal with. I remember
going to talk at the school, a charter school, and
they have to do with social media and them explaining

(57:14):
to me, like why when one person writes this, and
I have to stick up for my friends so I
can't not get on there and defend this, and then
it turns into this whole big thing and then it
goes to school like we didn't have to grow up
thinking about those things at.

Speaker 4 (57:27):
All, and you got so tough.

Speaker 7 (57:29):
If you got left out of the party, you found
out Monday. Maybe somebody called you on Sunday, but you
found out Monday.

Speaker 1 (57:34):
That still sucks.

Speaker 12 (57:35):
Now.

Speaker 7 (57:35):
It's in the moment, right, you know, they're out there
having a party and having fun or going to whatever,
and you're left out. So there are so many more
things that teachers have to deal with gun violence. Yes,
you know state legislatures that are now like dictating how
they can what you can teach. So they're up against
a lot more today than they were I think when

(57:56):
we were grown.

Speaker 4 (57:57):
And they're not compensated like they should be either. Right
when I was in elementary school, my mom was an
abusive relationship. It is somehow it came out at school,
like I think I was drawing crazy stuff or whatever,
and so my teacher talked to the principal and like
every day they would check on me, like you're okay,
were you by yourself last night?

Speaker 1 (58:14):
Did you eat?

Speaker 4 (58:15):
Like they would and they never they never like call
child protective services, but they really like took care of you,
so care of me like just like that entire year.
And I always remember, like that principle and that teacher
you know, because you just never know what students are
going through at home, and you know they're really important
in terms of like they shape us and help us.
That's true.

Speaker 7 (58:34):
They gave me goosebumps just now because you see. Lou
had a similar story too too, about a teacher who
just saw that she needed some kindness, she needed some help,
some extra tutoring, and he kept her after school to
do it. She had, you know, Chinese immigrant parents who
didn't speak English. You know, she was having difficulty and
this teacher just showed her kindness and that made all
the difference.

Speaker 3 (58:52):
We are talking to award winning journalist Deborah Roberts, and
that was part of what made me feel like and
I always beIN like, man, maybe I would have been
at that could have.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
Been really amazing. I remember this.

Speaker 3 (59:03):
One of the students showed me her diary because you know,
I guess she felt like she could share it with me,
and it was things in there that I was like, Okay,
you are in the seventh grade and you should not
be doing things like this.

Speaker 1 (59:16):
And I really didn't know how.

Speaker 3 (59:18):
You know, she wanted it to be confidential, and I
really didn't know, like how do you handle something like
that when it comes to what these young girls are
are going through and having to deal with.

Speaker 7 (59:27):
Yeah, it's a tough it's a very tough job. But
the teachers who do it love it. The teachers who really,
you know, just go in there every day knowing that
they're sometimes dealing with difficulty, love it. They spend their
own money, which is one of the reasons part of
the proceeds for going to donors choose to donors choose,
which is basically a way of funding resources for teachers.

(59:49):
If they need a new whiteboard, if they need a
new iPad. You can actually choose ways to donate to
help teachers.

Speaker 1 (59:55):
And that's amazing. Where were you when you found out?
You were in New York Times?

Speaker 4 (59:59):
This all my time.

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
I really want to hear this story.

Speaker 7 (01:00:01):
So Al was having his knee replacement surgery and he
was ready to be picked up. I was waiting on
that Wednesday to find out what. I didn't know when
we would find out. So I go to pick Al up.
It's four o'clock because it's sort of laid. Biden is
in town. The traffic is snarled. I'm trying to get
to him, and his painkillers are wearing off by the
time I get to him.

Speaker 4 (01:00:21):
So I get him in. She can set a scene
like I feel like I'm there.

Speaker 7 (01:00:27):
So I get there. He gets in the cars leg
you know, of course it's stiff, and he's trying to
get in. He's wincing in pain. We have all this traffic,
we're hitting bumps along the way, and all of a sudden,
I get an email that says, congratulations, you made the
New York Times.

Speaker 4 (01:00:40):
Bess, I know, and Al says, what what?

Speaker 8 (01:00:43):
What? What?

Speaker 7 (01:00:43):
I said, I made the New York Times best seller listed?

Speaker 1 (01:00:46):
He said, congratulations?

Speaker 14 (01:00:49):
Is that about me?

Speaker 4 (01:00:50):
Right now?

Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
This is about you? So I helped Alo into the
house as.

Speaker 7 (01:00:55):
I was trying to think about the excitement of the
New York Times best seller list.

Speaker 4 (01:00:59):
That's cool.

Speaker 7 (01:01:00):
It was a memorable moment.

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
Trust me, We'll never forget it. We will never forget that. Well,
thank you so much. I'm so happy that you came
in join us and actually shared this.

Speaker 3 (01:01:08):
I think teachers will really appreciate this, because I also
feel like teachers do not get the love and adoration
and credit that they should get.

Speaker 7 (01:01:16):
I agree with you, this is and the money that
they should get, and the money this is a love
letter to teachers, and it's a reminder about all the
things that they do, and I hope it opens a
conversation about the importance of what they do.

Speaker 1 (01:01:27):
Yes, well, very inspiring. Thank you so much. You're very inspiring.

Speaker 7 (01:01:31):
You are very inspiring. Thank you so much, and it's
always fun to be with you.

Speaker 1 (01:01:35):
Yay, thank you, Devil Robberts. We're gonna hit the town again.
When we come back.

Speaker 3 (01:01:41):

fifty one fifty is the number. I'm here and we

Speaker 1 (01:01:57):

I'm Angela.

Speaker 4 (01:02:01):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (01:02:01):
Jasmine from the Jasmine brand is here.

Speaker 3 (01:02:03):
An award winning advice giver Mano is here in the building,
and we have somebody on the line for ask ye Hello.

Speaker 10 (01:02:09):
Who's this hello? I'm anonymous?

Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
Okay, anonymous, what's your question today?

Speaker 10 (01:02:15):
I don't really care for my my stuck kid.

Speaker 9 (01:02:19):
He's a cheap baby, and I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:02:24):
That's hard because every time you look at the baby,
you think about the fact that your man cheated, right, and.

Speaker 10 (01:02:30):
We've been together for like twenty plus years and the
kid is now, what almost thirteen?

Speaker 4 (01:02:35):
Oh you know, I know you for really?

Speaker 6 (01:02:38):
You know me for real? I can realize.

Speaker 1 (01:02:42):
Uh oh yes, really? Well mano, well a couple of
things here. You stayed with this man after he cheated.

Speaker 3 (01:02:52):
Now the child is thirteen, so you can't stay with
somebody and still be angry about it. But is it,
like real, not the kid's fault. They don't do any
kind I mean, it's never the kid's fault. But I'm saying,
what is it about the kid that you don't like?

Speaker 15 (01:03:05):
Is it just the fact that it's not the fact
is he's rude and I feel like people around him
because he's not really around me.

Speaker 10 (01:03:16):
He's not he's not walcome in my house because you
cannot my house and not feak to me.

Speaker 6 (01:03:22):
Do you know?

Speaker 4 (01:03:22):
The mother?

Speaker 14 (01:03:23):
So oh.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
Yeah, well, I'm say.

Speaker 3 (01:03:33):
You know again, this child did not ask to be here,
And honestly, that child is probably suffering more than anybody.
Imagine how as a kid like you grew up feeling
like you're a mistake you're not wanted.

Speaker 1 (01:03:44):
You're a quote unquote side baby. Yeah, a cheap baby.

Speaker 3 (01:03:49):
That's not a good feeling for a child to have,
and the kind of trauma that a child would suffer
from knowing how they were brought into this world.

Speaker 1 (01:03:56):
And I think that.

Speaker 3 (01:03:58):
While you might have some anger toward the mom and
to your husband, you know, for what he did, what's
done is done, and you've agreed to stay with this
man and accept what it is that he's done, even
though it's upset to you. That's more of a problem
with yourself, you know. And I think even for this
kid to know that he's not allowed in the home,
that's a hurtful thing. And that's hard to make a

(01:04:20):
father not be able to be the parent that he
needs to be. I know, it's not what you want
to hear.

Speaker 6 (01:04:29):
So now we alone, then it's like, no, you can't,
you can't. You can't throw the baby away because it's
not his fault.

Speaker 10 (01:04:38):
No, I'm not throwing that chid away. I'm just going
to go the way because like my kids, buy.

Speaker 14 (01:04:44):
Him a big.

Speaker 3 (01:04:46):
Do you not want to be with this man anymore?
Because you stuck it through for thirteen years after you
found out.

Speaker 10 (01:04:52):
I mean he can go.

Speaker 4 (01:04:54):
Oh, that's sound like he can go regardless.

Speaker 3 (01:04:56):
Yeah, it sounds like the issues are you know, with him,
and it's it's trickling down.

Speaker 1 (01:05:05):
It's like you never really forgave him for what he did.

Speaker 6 (01:05:10):
On the sun though.

Speaker 10 (01:05:11):
Yeah, I'm not taking I was never really around this child,
like I know of him. He's been by my house
a couple of times, because it's like I have a kid,
it's pretty much the same age as he. M Okay,
like month of Art and my partnery was miserable.

Speaker 3 (01:05:31):
But I'm sorry to hear that. That's a lot that
you've been through as well. Have y'all ever tried to
do any like family therapy? No, it might be good
to bring in a third party that can kind of
mediate the situation and help you guys learn how to
come up with a better way to deal with things.
M because your child, at the end of the day
has a brother, like a half brother. Yeah, you know,

(01:05:54):
and you don't want this to be a situation later
in life where all these different things are coming out
and men fatting themselves and these kids just based off
of what adults did that they were brought into this
world under circumstances.

Speaker 1 (01:06:05):
That's not their fault.

Speaker 10 (01:06:07):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:06:08):
You know, so I think everything got to be about
the kids first and foremost. Like let's get that right,
you know, let's let's get it right. Like you have
a he has a thirteen year old whether or not,
you know, it's something that you can accept. That's your stepchild,
and so you staying with him, and you knowing that
your child has a half brother that's their blood too,
that's important.

Speaker 8 (01:06:29):
Right.

Speaker 6 (01:06:32):
You heard that she don't want to. I heard she did.

Speaker 9 (01:06:37):
She did it.

Speaker 6 (01:06:38):
She gave you the greatest advice.

of the same thing.

they're at my house and everything. But I just want
to tell you thank you. Just to hear those positive
words that you gave her really opened my eyes up
to you know, at the end of the day of
the child wasn't asked to be here. You can't take
nothing out on the child, not saying that I was,
but it just really opened my eyes up, and I
just want to say thank you.
