He was, and she would get him together when she could.
But anyway, on a more positive note, she got married
this week. They got married in Baltimore and her new
husband's name is James Ewing. And what I think is

It's way up with Angela yee ye tea next.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
They say in the rooms from industry shade to all
of gossip out. Angela's feeling that ye.

Speaker 5 (05:54):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (05:55):
This way up with Angela Yee Angela yee And Jasmine
Brand is here with me.

Speaker 4 (05:59):
Yes Thursday, Angela, Happy Thursday girl. Friday.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Actually, yeah, Friday Eve, your favorite day of the week.
And let's get right into some yet. Serena Williams has
a two book deal. Let me tell you something. Serena
is always going to be able to tell her story
from her point of view, like so many different facets
of her life, but it's going to start with an
intimate and open hearted memoir. She did this deal with
a Random House publishing, and she'll open up about everything

(06:24):
from her childhood, her early tennis training. A lot of
that was in the movie King Richard, but this is
from her point of view exactly, and a lot of
the obstacles and setbacks that she endured. And the book
is not yet titled, no release date yet, but she said,
for so long I was focused. All I was focused
on was winning, and I never sat down to look
back and reflect on my life and career. Over the

(06:45):
last year, I really enjoyed taking the time with my
growing family to celebrate my accomplishments and explore my other passions.
I couldn't be at a more perfect place to be
able to take on such a personal, intimate project.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
So shout out to her.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Can I just say, and this makes it a little
old shallow my end. I know she's not going to
talk about this, but I will love her to talk
about dating, drink in the book.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
In common. In Common, I mean, yeah, wouldn't that be juicy?

Speaker 2 (07:09):
Oh and remember she also dated that producer. Was it
Brett Ratner?

Speaker 4 (07:13):
Did she?

Speaker 5 (07:14):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (07:14):
I have a funny Sorry about that again some of
the time. Okay, all right, well look you want to
tell all basics. I do what I'm saying, Yeah, I do,
I do, but yeah, and I love Serena Williams. And
then she has a second book that's also untitled. It'll
be an inspirational work. And you know, they also announced
that she'll be offering rules for living that draw on
her experiences as a philanthropist and advocate.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Okay, good, good for her.

Speaker 5 (07:38):
All right, I'm.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Now let's discuss an issue that happened with glamour magazine.
Glamour UK, they incorrectly put a quote from Leanne Pennock.

Speaker 5 (07:48):
In their interview with Hallie Belly.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
So it was making the rounds that she announced that
she was pregnant and that she was married to her
boyfriend D D G. I think you have the part
of the article where people thought this was an interview
with Halle Bailey, but it was really an interview with
Leamne Pennott, right, So the.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
Quote was being a mom, being newly married, there's all
the positive side of it, but also the negative side
and how we've got to where we are. I wanted
to show that although things might look perfect from nexterior,
that's not always the case.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
People thought this was her interview.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
It was a mistake, and so they did have to
retract all of that and let people know this was
incorrectly quoted in place with the wrong person that they
were interviewing.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
W I said to you, like, oh my god, and
she's married.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
I know you were like, we got to get this
story up on the ger membrand. And then I was like,
now wait a minute, Wait a minute.

Speaker 4 (08:39):
All right?

Speaker 5 (08:40):
And four two. Doug was released from prison on Monday.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
He served six months behind bars, and in his first
post prison photo you see him with Yogatti and they're
both holding up their middle fingers in front of a
Felida cars. He was sentenced to one year in prison
for failure to report. This all started with him catching
gun charges back in twenty twenty. He spoke about the
horrendous conditions that he was facing while behind bars.

Speaker 5 (09:04):
He said he was required to heat up his food
with water from.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
The shower he had put out. Ain't no microwave. I
can't get no visits from my family nothing. I'm sure
they're going to do some more illegal ish, but what
I'm supposed to die in this be for probation violation.
And that's why prison reform is important. And if you
guys recalled. During that time, Yogotti also offered two million
dollars for any lawyer who could get him out early.
So looks like he's out. So he graduations after six months.

(09:28):
He is home and when we come back, we have
about last night. Now we come out of YETI and
then we go into pitch competitions, and I just want
to talk about the importance of if you're an entrepreneur
or if you have a product and you need to
be able to pitch that product in front of a
room full of potential investors. We'll discuss that because last
night I was able to witness that and actually be

(09:50):
a judge. All Right, it's way up with Angela.

Speaker 5 (09:51):
Ye yeah, last night.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
So about last night, last night, last night.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
That I went down step is way up. Put Angela Yee,
I'm Angela Yee. Jasmine brand is here.

Speaker 4 (10:03):
Happy Thursday, Happy Thursday.

Speaker 5 (10:05):
And about last night, y'all know I work all the time,
you kind of.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
Like a workaholic, right, would you call yourself that I'll be.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
Trying to take a break, but eventually I will.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
But last night, and you know what it is, There's
certain things I love doing and this was one of them.
I worked with this nonprofit, Digital Undivided. Okay, they had
their first annual do You Fellowship pitch competition that was
presented by Prudential Financial. It was in Newark, New Jersey,
and so it is fourteen Latina and Black women entrepreneurs
and they did this whole do You Fellowship program. It's

(10:36):
a one year program and so these founders for their
businesses get customized workshops. They get to access the tools
and resources like marketing strategies, fundraising, finance, management, sales and
more that helps them grow their businesses. Right, And so
the pitch competitions will now allow these founders to showcase
their innovations and their growth through the program that they

(10:59):
went through. And I'm one of the judges. So it's
me Jennifer Justice that was there. She's the CEO and
founder of the Justice Department. Her last name is really
Justice and she is an attorney. All nice. Actually it
was destiny for her. JJ we used to call it.
I've known her for literally probably like twenty years. Oh WOWK, yeah,
So I was excited to be judging with her and

(11:19):
then Jamara Negrone, who's the director of insider Risk at
Prudential Financial And so just being able to see these
women get up in front of us and present and
see how they were able to pitch. You know, one
of the hardest things is you could have a great company,
but being able to try to raise funding to take
it to the next level and get access to capital.

(11:39):
We all know there's a lot of obstacles in our community,
especially for women.

Speaker 4 (11:44):
For sure, you know, is they're ready to black and brown.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
Were black and brown, but then when you're a woman
on top of it, it's like doubly hard. So while
we start a lot of businesses, we may not have
a lot of employees, we may not be able to
scale those business A lot of times it's self funded
or it's funded from the community. And so just being
able to know how to raise money, how to market
your you know, whatever your business is, and then also
being able to pitch in front of people is important.

(12:08):
And that's something that honestly I've been having to learn
a lot more.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
On the fly as you go something like this. It
was really impressive to listen to the pitches. But it's
really cool because you and I are both entrepreneurs, and
all that stuff that they were talking about I had
to learn, you know, as I was going. So it's
really nice to have that program and to have that
mentorship to kind of help you at the beginning of
your journey.

Speaker 5 (12:31):
And you know what, that's something that, even if it's not.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
The beginning, is a great skill because sometimes you never
are in a position where you're pitching your business. And
so for everybody listening, you know, it is important for
you to have a deck together, to know your business
inside and out, to know the numbers, because if you
are looking for investors, ever, what do they care about
more than anything numbers? The numbers. Does this make sense?
Can we be profitable when I get a return? Well,

(12:54):
I get a return, And you know, you can have
a great idea. People can emotionally have a connection into something,
but if it financially doesn't make sense, it might not matter.
You're right, And so I was thinking, even for us,
it wouldn't hurt for us to learn how to be
able to present in front of because they're looking for
different things than what we might connect with. I might

(13:15):
say I have my coffee company and I love that
I have it, and the reason why I founded it
has to deal with coffee being from black and brown
places but not being represented enough here in the United
States in that industry. But they might not care. They
might be like, Okay, so let's talk about numbers. Let's
talk about margins. That's what matters sometimes to investors. And

(13:35):
so while it might be hard for us to put
our emotion to the side and say, look, I just
want to talk about the health benefits of this. I
want to talk about equity and a huge commodity, the
second largest commodity in the United States.

Speaker 5 (13:49):
They're like, okay, cool, but how are you going to
make money?

Speaker 3 (13:52):
Yeah, what's the bottom line? And that's not the that's
the thing that I'm not really good at.

Speaker 5 (13:56):
Yeah, but you can be yes, you know.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
And I think sometimes we also talk ourselves out of
things like, oh, I'm not good at that.

Speaker 5 (14:02):
Well, I'm not good at your right. We have to
get good at that.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
And so that's just something I and I'm not saying
I'm an expert at all.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
I'm saying I need to do better too.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
Yep, I definitely do so that's a good event, all right,
So yeah, shout out to you. I know, I just
got on my pedestal.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
Right now, your box, your ted talk. Thank you for
coming again Angeley's Ted talk.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
But I did love to see h these women who
were presenting yesterday and see how amazing they were, and
it made me feel like I got to step it up.

Speaker 8 (14:28):
Well.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
When we come back, I want to talk about something
else that's near and dear to my heart, and that
is working with friends.

Speaker 5 (14:33):
All right. You see Jasmine's up here.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
It's helping me because to be clear, she's doing this,
you know, to be of service and of assistance to me,
and I appreciate you. But we want to talk about
this documentary that I worked on with my friend Jennifer
Williams from Basketball Wives. If you haven't seen the ad,
no worry, I got it for you. But she definitely
got scammed and we did a whole documentary about it.
We're going to talk about that more. It's way up

(14:56):
with Angela Yee.

Speaker 5 (14:59):
Bad you find a way up with Angela Yee?

Speaker 2 (15:03):
What tapp is way up with Angela Yee I'm Angela Yee.
Jasmine Brand is here with me. Yes, now, Jasmine, you know,
I've been working on this documentary with Jennifer Williams, My
True Scam Story.

Speaker 4 (15:13):
Can't wait to see it.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
It's her true story about getting scammed out of her
range rover and a lot of people passed judgment on
her when this happened. But if you look on her
page and I'm about to post this too. The story
is coming out November sixth at eight pm on v
H one. Finally, let's go and we're gonna talk more
about it when we come back and what the whole
process was like. It's way up with Angela Yee, my
true scam story. I'm gonna talk about the true behind

(15:36):
the scenes of the scam story when we come back.

Speaker 5 (15:38):
It's way up with Angela Yee. Hey, Yeah, she back
at it.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Bring in the Way Up with Angela ye is on.

Speaker 5 (15:48):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Is way up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee and
Jasmine Brand is here.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
Yes, I'm here and listen.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
I wanted to talk about something I did that I've
never done before. You know, I always talk about stepping
out and like being on comfortable in things that you've
never done but taken a risk. And I actually executive
produced this show for a good.

Speaker 5 (16:06):
Friend of my My True Scam Story.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
It's a docuseries and it's going to be va to
when it starts on November six with Jennifer Williams some
Basketball Wives. And here is Jennifer when she came up
here and gets hosted talking about the series. We were
just talking about My True scam Story. This is a
documentary that you did and I executive produced. This guy
you used to day he stole your car, and once

(16:28):
you told your story, a lot of people came forward,
his own family members.

Speaker 10 (16:32):
Really, yes, he scammed his father. Yeah, but you know
it's really sad because his dad has some form of
mental illness and he got into I don't know if
it was an accident, but he got a settlement for
some money and he basically scammed him out of the
settlement and never spoke to him after that.

Speaker 4 (16:52):
Now, this guy, he is absolutely awful.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
But never ever has he like he's still around, So
it's really exciting. I was watching Basketball Wives, you were
with me, and I got to see the commercial for
the first time ever.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
And I was like, Angela, this is it? This is it?

Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yes, my two scammed story and it's a true story.
And this is a real life turning lemons into lemonade. Right, So,
during the pandemic, Jennifer went on social media to reveal
to the world that this man had scammed her out
of her range Rover. At first, it's embarrassing because you
feel like, I feel so stupid, I'm ashamed. But then
you know a lot of people were attacking her. They

(17:30):
were like, we don't believe you. You know, why would
you be so dumb to give this guy your car?
And I told it, let's take the power back in
that and do your own story and tell your own
story of what happened. A lot of times people do
get scammed, and we all at some point I feel
like have been scammed somewhat.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
Right to this extreme because I don't have a range Rover.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
Right, But I mean, I definitely got scammed out of
eight thousand dollars before in my life when I and
it was all the money I had.

Speaker 5 (17:54):
You know, it was when I was way younger.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
I had just came off the road and thought I
was about to get a car from this guy who
said he was a car dealer and he was going
to the auction to get me a car.

Speaker 5 (18:05):
It was going to be like the first car that.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
I bought for myself, and I thought it was gonna work,
and instead he just kept the money and was on
the run.

Speaker 5 (18:11):
The assistant DA called me.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
But it's really hard sometimes to hold people accountable when
they do things like that. You know, the law a
lot of times just doesn't care. It doesn't really it's money.
They feel like, Okay, you made a bad decision. You'll
move on with your life. And it set me back
a lot at that time.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yeah, well, let me ask you this, Angela. You are
an executive producer on this show. What does that mean?

Speaker 4 (18:32):
What did you all do?

Speaker 2 (18:33):
That can mean a lot depending for some people, that
just means you put up the money for me in
this situation I did in the beginning. To get the
show picked up, we actually went to Dennis Reed. He
does a lot of movies and shows. He's from Detroit,
and we went to him and we actually scheduled interviews
and interviewed a whole lot of people that started hitting
us up after they saw that we were working on

(18:54):
this documentary that had gotten scammed by him as well. Gotcha,
and so it was like his own five, his own
uncle family members.

Speaker 5 (19:03):
It was women.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
It was men that he met on gay dating apps
that reached out to us, and they said, this is juicy.

Speaker 5 (19:09):
They're in this.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
It's very deucey, and so I'm excited for you to
see it. Here's a little bit of that ad.

Speaker 4 (19:14):
Masters of Manipulation and Deception.

Speaker 10 (19:17):
He said, he loves me, but I am not.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
The only one. Extremely dangerous. We are going to get justice,
and it might not be through the court system.

Speaker 5 (19:25):
Of My True Scam Story premiers Monday, No. Number six
to eight on VH one.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
All Right, so you know, the whole thing with this
is for Jennifer. I think this was a way for
her to take back the power of people saying you stupid,
you dumb. Now she ended up going to court and
you know, getting her money back, but not her car. Okay,
So while there was but she also was very concerned
about other people who got nothing. Yeah, you know that

(19:51):
got ripped off and had terrible credit. You know, some
people went One guy had to move back home with
his mom and felt so stupid. So just that feeling
of like no one cares, it's your fault.

Speaker 5 (20:02):
You're dumb. You shouldn't have done that.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
Instead of holding the person accountable, this meant a lot
to her to be able to bring their stories to
the forefront.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
And like you're saying, some of the people that were
victims that really didn't get anything back, this is some
form of justice.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah. I think he thought that you got away with it.

Speaker 5 (20:18):
No, you did it.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
And so, you know, just shout out to Jennifer for
being brave enough to do something like this and really
caring because she could have got her money back and
just say, kept it moving. I'm good because he definitely
was trying to stop it. When we come back, we
have yet and let's talk about Missy Elliott. Let's keep
it positive now, all right, Missy Elliott just did something
amazing for people in Virginia because that's where she's from.

Speaker 5 (20:38):
It's way up with Angela.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
Ye.

Speaker 5 (20:40):
Let's shine a light on her about to the lid ab.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
Off this pot. Let's get it angelus feeling that yee
te come and get the tea.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
What's up his way up at Angela Yee? I'm Angela yee.
And Jasmine brandis hair?

Speaker 4 (20:52):
What mean yes, ma'am?

Speaker 2 (20:53):
And let's get into some yekke tea. Now, this is
a great thing. Missy Elliott donated fifty thousand dollars and
that was for families and Virginia who were facing eviction.
It's the Portsmouth Redevelopment and Housing Authority that she gave
that money to, and that five figure donation will go
toward paying off the past due rent of twenty six families.

Speaker 4 (21:13):
Oh nice, that's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Yes, And so she already got her own day and
said before that she loves her city.

Speaker 5 (21:19):
She loves her stay.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
She loves everything about it, the hospitality, the humility, the confidence.
She said, if you mess with me, it's a problem.
We sweep, but don't try us. I love it all right.
So that's a feel good story. Missy Elliott just stays
low and does the work.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
She minds her business and just thrives.

Speaker 5 (21:36):
All right.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
Now, Jada Pinkett Smith does not stay low. Sheay to promote.

Speaker 4 (21:41):
Yes, she tells it all.

Speaker 5 (21:42):
And her book Worthy is already out.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
But there's a lot of interviews that she did, and
she was on Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast and she
said that she thinks that if Tupac was alive, that
him and Will Smith would have ended up being really
good friends.

Speaker 5 (21:55):
Here's what she said.

Speaker 11 (21:56):
I think if Pack had survived Vegas, he and Will
would have ended up being really good friends and funny enough,
Will was the only person when I started dating him.

Speaker 5 (22:10):
Pac never said anything.

Speaker 11 (22:12):
If I dated anybody else, Pack had.

Speaker 5 (22:14):
Had something to say.

Speaker 11 (22:16):
He didn't think anybody was good enough, which I understand, right,
But when I started dating Will, he didn't say anything,
which meant to me in his own way.

Speaker 5 (22:25):
He approved. See, Pac actually liked Will Smith.

Speaker 4 (22:31):
Jada.

Speaker 3 (22:31):
Listen, I love Jada and I love her spelling all
this tea. But I mean that's a that's we don't
know that to be.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
She said he was the only person when she studied
dating him. Pac never said anything, but you know how
guys are to be like he weak, he whack.

Speaker 4 (22:43):
He probably thought he wasn't a threat.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
No, I mean not like, I mean nothing physical, Jasmine,
Oh my god, Okay, all right, let's keep it moving,
all right. In addition to that, she also said that
her and Will Smith might be doing a book together.

Speaker 4 (22:57):
Interesting.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
That's what she hopes is gonna happen, and she thinks
it'll help a lot of people because they've been through
a lot together.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
The one thing I will say, and you're over here chuckling,
the one thing I will say is Will and Jada
have a untraditional marriage. So I think that's a different perspective.
You know, some people might want to live their lives
like this. Some you know, some couples might want to
be like this. So this might be good. And also,
I'm sure there's even more T. I don't know if
there is more T, but I feel like there might
be more T in this new book Together.

Speaker 5 (23:24):
It'll s mathe me the part two of his book.
How about that?

Speaker 4 (23:26):
He definitely does all.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
Right now, Young Jack was on Vlad TV and he
said that he is unsure about performing at LGBTQ plus events. Okay,
he said he wouldn't take two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars to perform because he's uncomfortable.

Speaker 5 (23:39):
Here's what he said.

Speaker 12 (23:40):
I ain't nobody else gave me two hundred fifty dollars
dollars for a show, don't get me wrong. So when
I got me them, was like, hey, hell man, you
call to me. No, I may not do it either.
And it's not that I have nothing that gets LGBTQ
people but I just may not understand. I may not
be in the no one enough to feel comfortable enough

(24:01):
to do this. I just don't know, because I don't
want to start doing that. Maybe I don't want to
be comfortable with this lifestyle. Is that okay to say?

Speaker 5 (24:09):
Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, young Jack, please, I'll
take it.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
Yeah, I will go get that money. And FYI, just
because somebody is gay don't mean they want you.

Speaker 7 (24:17):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
I feel like a lot of people men.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
I feel like sometimes men think if somebody's gay and
like a gay man, oh, they don't they don't be
into you sometimes.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
Yeah, just because a person is gay doesn't mean they
want every man they see like, they're not gonna be
looking at you with lustful eyes. They may just like
the song It's going down, you know, and that's a
great song for well never mind, Okay, all right, but yes,
I just want to point that out. So shout out
to our lgbt Q I A plus family who's listening.

(24:45):
We will take that two hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
I'll do my Problemtually hosted events for Pride Week, of course. Yeah,
here in New York and had a great time and yeah,
so there you have it all right, Well that is
your yet and when we come back, we have under
the radar. These are the stories that are not necessarily
and the headlines. They are flying under the radar. It's
way up when angela.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Ye, yeah, news this in the news that relates to you.
These stories are flying under the radar.

Speaker 5 (25:12):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (25:12):
Its way up with Angela yee. I'm angela ye. And
Jasmine brand is here. Yes, yes, Happy favorite day of
the week, Thursday Friday, and let's get ready for under
the radar. And first and foremost though, I also want
to tell you guys that I'm doing this bowling for
a Cause event, but the proceeds benefiting Mamonodes Children's Hospital
is happening November eighth, and you get food and beverage

(25:34):
included with your ticket. It's one hundred dollars. But all
that money is going to the children's hospital, which, by
the way, is where I was born and so is
my brother. So it does mean a lot to me
for this children's hospital to make sure that we help
support them.

Speaker 5 (25:47):
All right now, let's get ready.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Speaking of kids, Halloween is on the way and a
new report is talking about America's favorite Halloween candies. All right,
I actually do love Halloween candy, but there's some of
the things that I hate.

Speaker 4 (26:00):
Okay, all right?

Speaker 5 (26:01):
In New York. You know what's the most popular? What
Sour Patch Kids?

Speaker 7 (26:05):
You like?

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Don't you like sour Patch? You like sour things?

Speaker 5 (26:07):
But then I feel like there's a report about how
they're not good to you. I don't go ahead, we
ever thought they were?

Speaker 9 (26:12):
Right?

Speaker 5 (26:13):
Then Hot to Molly's I don't like those.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
I do like Hot Tomoralis.

Speaker 5 (26:16):
And then candy corn. I like candy corn.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
Oh my god, have you ever seen the report on
why it's called candy corn? No, so when you put
all the candy corn together like that, it looks like
a corn on the cobs. Oh okay, so it's like
the outside and then the middle of the I show
you a picture of it.

Speaker 5 (26:31):
But you guys should look that up.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
I do not like candy corn, all.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
Right, But all together, the top ten most popular Halloween
candies are Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Okay, then em and M's,
Hot to Molly's Skittles, Sour Patch Kids, Starbars, Hershey's Kisses,
Candy Corn, Hershey's Mini Bars, and then Snickers.

Speaker 4 (26:47):
Out of all of those, which is your favorite.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Out of all of those? I do like Reese's peanut
butter cups.

Speaker 4 (26:52):
I like those when they're in the refrigerator.

Speaker 5 (26:54):
I like those. I think that. I think then I'm
gonna go with the number one that is my favorite.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
I really like Snickers, and I do like hotamalis. Okay,
so the kind of get stuck on our teeth. Though
I don't really care for starburs anymore. I used to,
and sometimes they're very hard. They are gets stuck on
my teeth too, But I do like starbars as.

Speaker 5 (27:11):
Well as fires Ticka treating.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
The tap zip codes in America and America for ticker
treating are Lehi, Utah, oh Then Dallas, Texas, then Houston,
then South Lake, Texas, and Saratoga Springs, Utah.

Speaker 5 (27:23):
That's interesting that one.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
Through five south on the West are Utah and Texas. Interesting,
followed by number six, which is Chicago.

Speaker 4 (27:30):
Yet we love Chickashatown.

Speaker 5 (27:33):
New York's not on here. Well, Goarden City, New York is,
but not New York City.

Speaker 4 (27:36):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (27:36):
I never was allowed to trick or treat as a kid.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
So you've never knocked on a door with a bag
instead trick or treat.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
When I moved to New Jersey in tenth grade, I
was a little old for it, Yeah you were, but
we did go out for mischief Night, okay, which is
the night before all right. And lastly, for people worried
about their risk of Alzheimer's disease, for the first time ever,
you can go online, order a blood test and get
the results in the privacy of your home.

Speaker 5 (27:59):
All right.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
Now, this might feel like it's a great thing, but
the development of this has Alzheimer's researchers and clinicians up
in arms. So they're saying that this test measures elevated
levels of these proteins, which is a signature characteristic of Alzheimer's,
and it's primarily targeted at people fifty and older who
suspect that their memory and thinking might be impaired, and

(28:21):
also people who have a family history of Alzheimer's or
genetic risk for the conditions. But some people aren't convinced
that this test is backed by sound scientific research, and
the possibility of false positive results is high, and also
the likelihood that older adults will understand the significance of
their results and the test should be taken only under
physician supervision, if at all, this kind of takes away

(28:42):
from the whole at home.

Speaker 4 (28:44):
Yeah. It also is not in cover by insurance right now.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
Yeah, all at home testing. And it's priced originally at
three hundred and ninety nine dollars. They just discounted it
to two hundred and ninety nine dollars and not covered
by insurance. So it's not cheap either, like you said,
But Alzheimer's is a scary disease. Terrified, you know, so
just having people close to me who I know who
have suffered from it and you feel so helpless and
there's nothing you can do about it.

Speaker 4 (29:06):
And sometimes it's a slow, painful process too.

Speaker 5 (29:08):
Yeah, it is.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
And so if there's anything that you can do to
prevent it, I know there's something that's been looked at.
Dementia Alzheimer's. A lot of times those go hand in hand.
So my heart goes out to anybody who has to,
you know, has to help somebody who's close to them
go through that process because it's not easy on you,
but carrying that person.

Speaker 5 (29:27):
But I know it's not easy for the person suffering it.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
It affects everybody, all right, Well, that is you're under
the radar, and don't forget. We do have the way
Up mix at the top of the hour, plus ask
ye is coming up so you can start getting your
calls in now eight hundred two nine fifty one fifty
it's way up with Angela Yee. She's like the talk
like they angela Jee, like they angela Jee.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
And she's spilling it all.

Speaker 11 (29:49):
This is yeeky way up.

Speaker 5 (29:53):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (29:54):
His way up at Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee. And
Jasmine brand is here, yes, ma'am, Yes, ma'am. Let's get
into some yet right way so X, which is formally
known as Twitter, I still call it Twitter, I do too.
All right, Well, they're going to be charging new users
a dollar a year, and that is going to be
able to access some key features. That is no point
of having X if you don't have these features, the

(30:14):
ability to tweet and retweet. Now, Elon Musk has been
floating this idea of charging for the platform for a
while and then moving the idea into production. This is
for new users, by the way, So in order to
be able to tweet, reply, and quote, you'll have to
pay that dollar a year. They'll start charging the fee
on Tuesday for new users in New Zealand and the Philippines.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
Okay, so they're not starting it in the States, going
to start so.

Speaker 5 (30:37):
They're starting it there.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
And that's one of the most significant changes since Elon
Musk got the company nearly a year ago. And Fortune
actually reported the news of this plan. And so the
dollar annual charge again is only for new users. It
does not apply to existing users. And I don't know
what's going to happen with X Premium. That means that
you can undo a tweet or edit a post for

(30:59):
eight dollars a month, but I don't do that.

Speaker 4 (31:01):
He dows a month. Sounds a little crisy, right.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
It's also weird going from free to a dollar. And
I think the main thing is having to put your
information and I never trust that when you have to
sign up for something, even if it's free, and then
they asked for your credit card information and the next
thing you know, you're being charged for all kinds of
things you didn't plan on all. Right now, John Stamos
is claiming that he was sexually abused by a former babysitter,

(31:23):
and he said in order to get her to stop,
he would play dead.

Speaker 5 (31:27):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
He said the memories of this alleged abuse only came
back to him when he was writing his upcoming memoir.
If you would have told me that memoir actually comes
out next week October twenty fourth, He told people, I
remembered it slightly. It had always been there, but I
packed it away as people do. While it was always
in the back.

Speaker 5 (31:44):
Of his head.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
He said he had Preefly previously talked it up to
a girls man and don't tell anybody. He didn't tell
anybody about it, and he was like, if you're playing dead,
they'll stop. And he said he hated her. I couldn't
believe how much I hated her, and it ruined my life.

Speaker 4 (31:57):
It makes me sad.

Speaker 3 (31:59):
I'm glad he's talking about because he's not the only
one that had this experience as a child, and usually
men don't open up about it, so I'm so glad
he's talking about it.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
Yeah, that is a that's really sad that he ended
up having to go through that. And you know, Britney
Spears her has her memoir also coming out, and she
talked about just being a young fifteen year old girl
and having to go into these labels and her little
dresses and these guys just looking her up and down.

Speaker 5 (32:25):
Right gross. All right, Now, Uncle Luke.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Is going to be starring in a docuseries about his
new role as a high school football coach.

Speaker 5 (32:32):
Luther Campbell we'll call him now, Okay, all right?

Speaker 2 (32:34):
So he Deon Sanders, by the way, is one of
the producers that's gonna be good behind the series is
called Coach Luke, and so it'll chronicle him as he
became an entrepreneur and the head coach of the Edison
Senior high school football team in Miami. So congratulations to him,
you know, for that Coach Luke.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
You know who else is one of the executive producers
Michael Strahan, Oh he is.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
I think that makes a lot of And he has
good relationships with people. And if you follow him on
social media, Uncle Luke talks a lot about politics.

Speaker 5 (33:06):
I feel like he was running from mayor at one
wasn't he would not be surprised?

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, all right, Well he's come a long way. Yeah,
and he's been in this business for quite some time.
But he does really care about the kids and about football,
all right. And NAS's mass appeal in print has come
under fire. There's a former employee who was accusing the
company of racial discrimination, Melissa Cooper. She's the former head
of development and according to Hollywood Reporter, she says that

(33:31):
she was the victim of venomus and a racist comment
about white folk anders and eventually got fired.

Speaker 5 (33:37):
All right, she's a white woman.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
Yeah, And she said some of the racist commentary happened
while she was working on the Freaknik documentary that's going
to air on Hulu in twenty twenty four, and she
was saying that things got hostile between her and Janya Megs,
who's a black woman who is the senior vice president
for a Partnerships and content acquisition, and she was upset,
according to Cooper, that Cooper was on the documentary and.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
She wasn't oh, okay, gotcha.

Speaker 5 (34:03):
Okay, Yeah, So I don't know what's gonna happen with that.

Speaker 4 (34:06):
I don't know either, but I want to see the
documentary though I.

Speaker 2 (34:08):
Know, right all right, well that is your yee t.
And when we come back, I want to talk about
something we haven't discussed yet, and that is something Oprah
said that you brought to my attention about how much
she got paid for the color purple. Yes, all right,
sometimes you got to take those shorts for something that
you really love.

Speaker 5 (34:24):
It's way up with Angela. Ye. Let's discuss Oprah when
we come back. It's way up you, way up with
Angela yee.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
What's type is way up with Angela yee? I Angela ye.
And Jasmine brand is here with me.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Yes, I am, yes indeed.

Speaker 5 (34:39):
And let's talk about Oprah and the color purple.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
You know, Oprah is on the cover of Essence and
she's there alongside to Rajji Her, Danielle Brooks and Fantasia Burno.
And that's all because of the color purple. The new
adaptation which is going to be happening, it's a musical film, yes, yes,
And Danielle Brooks is gonna be is gonna be playing
the character that she played. So Phisophia, Danielle Brooks is

(35:03):
from Orange is a new Black.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
Love her character.

Speaker 4 (35:05):
She's a maze. She's a great actress. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (35:08):
Actually I think she already won Tony for she that role.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
She did on Broadway.

Speaker 5 (35:14):
Yeah, she was on Broadway. She got a Tony. Oh,
she got a Tony Award nomination for playing that role.
And she did.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Thank Oprah back then for leaving space for me on set,
but also being there to hold my hand and answer
that phone call when.

Speaker 5 (35:25):
I needed you.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
That's nice. Yeah, all right.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
Well, anyway, Oprah said the thirty five thousand dollars that
she made for starring in The Color Purple was the
best thirty five thousand dollars that she ever earned.

Speaker 4 (35:37):
I get it.

Speaker 3 (35:38):
I also like to say, just to give some context
to thirty five thousand dollars, this was in nineteen eighty five,
so I'm not you know, it's not like it's this
year and it's you know how much years ago.

Speaker 4 (35:50):
Yeah, it was a while ago, you know. Yeah, it's
still it's as big as the movie is.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
But it was a Steven Spielberg movie. It was a huge.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
It was a huge, huge that big.

Speaker 3 (36:01):
I think we knew because that, you know, the book
was so longer. Yeah, and then you had Whoopy Gold
and Steven Spielberg.

Speaker 5 (36:08):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think we knew it was.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
But you know, she said it was the only shot
she had at achieving her life goal of starring in
that movie. And if there was an opportunity, like look,
if somebody said to me, Angela, I want you to
start in this horror.

Speaker 4 (36:22):
Film a dream come true for you.

Speaker 2 (36:25):
I want you to do this Blumhouse production speaking into
Existence Girls because Wes Craven, you know one of those
even that Stephen King Stephen King adaptation, Well that already
has been already like twice.

Speaker 5 (36:41):
But listen, it would be like, what I gotta do?
Where do I sign?

Speaker 3 (36:45):
What if they said we can only pay you thirty
five thousand dollars, I'll be there and you got to
take off work. You know the thing about opportunities that
really don't pay a lot. Sometimes you can't afford to
take these opportunities that don't pay a lot. You get
what I'm saying, like, let's time figure it out. You
will figure it out. You got to be able to
because one.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
Thing about being on set, you really can't do much
else because they'll have you there all damn day.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
Basically for one line.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
Like when you see a music video, sometimes there's a
two day shoot for a three or four minute video.
It really takes all day of you being on set.
I remember I did Empire, and when I tell you
I had like five lines, I was there for.

Speaker 4 (37:19):
Two days for five lines.

Speaker 5 (37:21):
I was like, you can't go.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
They were like, no, you're actually in the background of
this scene, so you have to be there in the background,
not even talking or anything.

Speaker 5 (37:28):
So yeah, it's a big commitment.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
But shout out to her for saying that was the
best thirty five thousand dollars that she ever made. Now
she probably spends that on toilet paper in her house. Okay,

Speaker 5 (38:49):
You should know. This is ask Gee. What's up? Is
way up at Angela Ye.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
I'm Angela Yee and Jasmine Brand is here with me
and it's time for your question for ask Yee eight
hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty. Today we have
a voicemail and it's found one of our favorite places
that deed what up that?

Speaker 5 (39:06):
Here's the question.

Speaker 9 (39:07):
Hey, Angela, this is your girl problem. Call them from
the West side of Detroit. I have a problem. I
am a female construction worker in a male dominated field.
I won't want the contractors and male construction workers to
put some respects on my gender. Because I'm a female,
they look at me like I can't do the things

(39:29):
that they can do. So how do I command respect
without being as? I need your help, Angela?

Speaker 2 (39:37):
All right, First of all, I want to say I
know what that feels like. I've been places where I
was the only woman on a whole entire station at
one point.

Speaker 4 (39:45):
Yeah, that's tough.

Speaker 5 (39:46):
It is tough.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
And one thing I will say is, you know a
lot of times you'll make it seem like you're crazier,
you're a beef.

Speaker 5 (39:53):
For speaking up for yourself. But it's okay for the
guys to do it.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
It's okay for them to talk crazy, or to yell,
or to do any of those things.

Speaker 5 (40:00):
It's really important.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
What I had to find out was to build a
network even outside of work, so people understand that they
can't play with you. Okay, when you have a bunch
of strong women and men who are allies behind you,
and you have built something that might be like a
coalition because there's definitely other women in construction, you know,
that feel the same.

Speaker 5 (40:20):
Way that you do.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
And so being able to join forces with these groups,
show that you're going to these networking events and on
these panels, so that people know, Man, when I mess
with her, I'm not just messing with her, I'm messing
with a whole gang organization of people who she knows
outside of here. Right, And also being vocal about things
and being firm. Don't even worry about what they think
about you, just you know, having solid examples of when

(40:43):
somebody says something to you to be like, well, you
know it's such and such the same thing, and that
wasn't an issue. So I just want to make sure
I'm moving forward. We don't have to continue to have
these conversations.

Speaker 3 (40:51):
Yeah, and also to add on to that, angela document
if it's something wrong going on, something that you had
address and experience, you had to make sure you document it.

Speaker 4 (40:58):
So if you ever have any issue.

Speaker 5 (41:00):
Yeah, I love putt stuff an email.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
Yes, when I know something about to go down, I'm like,
let me put this in an email so that when
they respond or don't respond, I have that write in writing.
You know, let people know that you are about your business,
but make sure that you're always doing what you're supposed
to do on your end, because sometimes when people do
things to you at work and diminish you, you can
diminish yourself right, and that might mean not showing up

(41:22):
the way that you know you should and could, and
not doing your job up to full potential because you're
not happy. And so I think it's really important that
we do our work we do it well. Unfortunately, I
feel like a lot of the times we do have
to go above and beyond and be better than everybody else.
And that's not fair, you know, but it is the
world that we're living in. You don't want anybody to
be able to call you out. Well, you know you

(41:43):
were coming in late every day, Well you did do this,
Well you did do that, because they'll find any excuse
to make it seem like you are the crazy one,
and so you always have to be on your p's
and q so you can say, well, actually that's not true.

Speaker 5 (41:53):
Well actually I did do this.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
Well, actually this is not my responsibility, but I took
it upon myself. And even making sure that people don't
make credit for what it is that you've done, because
people will try to do that as well, take credit
for the work that you put in. So I just
want to say, stand up for yourself and make sure
that you have a community, a group of women and
other people behind you, so that even outside of work,

(42:16):
you know that you can feel empowered to go in
there and they'll see it. Trust me, they're watching what
you're doing.

Speaker 4 (42:22):
Great pace.

Speaker 2 (42:23):
All right, Well, if anybody else has any questions, eight
hundred and two ninety two fifty one fifty is a number,
call us up. We are here to help and when
