felt that way.
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Well, you know, sometimes, man, when you do these podcasts
and you do interviews, sometimes you know, depending on the
mold you in, you might not say some of the
things that you wanted to say. And sometimes I find
myself reiterating some of the things that I've already said
in the interviews. People don't seen my interviews a million
(02:56):
times on YouTube and stuff, So I just don't want
to say the same thing.
Speaker 8 (03:00):
Right, And when I left I realized that.
Speaker 6 (03:02):
I said, damn, you know, because sometimes I want to
keep re educating people on who I am.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
But it made sense though, because he wasn't there, so
it's better than he was.

Just read.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
You know there's headlines between you know, you had to
stand up.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
You had said some stuff and obviously Shannon Sharp in
his podcast and Kat Williams and all this. You know,
it really made headlines, broke records. You recently got in
the manage. It was telling jokes how you tell jokes,
and it started starting getting back and forth.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
But I was glad I knew we would happen.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
You and Shannon were able to talk and figure it out,
and that happened. I think yesterday, if I'm not mistaken,
can you kind of, you know, to tell us what
it was about, but just how that came about and
where you guys are at now.
Speaker 6 (04:30):
Well, you know, we at the end of the day,
this is all entertainment, you know, that's what this is.
We're not selling drugs. We're not We're not in the underworld.
So there's some guidelines and rules to the business that
we're in. And you know, at the end of the day,
(04:51):
we got families, we got kids and stuff like that.
So sometime we can get out of line, man, you know,
and me.
Speaker 7 (04:57):
Personally, you know, I can get out of line a
little bit.
Speaker 6 (05:01):
Well, I said some stuff that I didn't some stuff
I shouldn't have said. Some of the stuff was good,
it was funny.
Speaker 8 (05:08):
Everybody was laughing.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
But then when I went back and looked at it,
I said, yeah, I kind of crossed the line a
little bit.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
But when you grow.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Across the line, you're already there. So I just didn't expect.
I just didn't expect the brother to get so mad
about it, you know. And then, like I said on
the on the podcast, I said, I said, a lot
of people have been talking about it. I mean, I
seen it on Saturday Night Live. I seen a lot
(05:35):
of Corey Holk on different ones. I just was wondering, why,
you know what I mean, you got singled out that
he and then you know, he told me, he was like,
you know what, Mike, I'm gonna be honest with you.
Speaker 8 (05:48):
It was because it was you, he said, because guess
what the fuck with you?
Speaker 6 (05:52):
These people out here, they're damn to do what you
tell him to do. So when he said that, I said, damn,
you're right man. You I didn't look at it that
way first, And you know, it just brought some light
to me, man, And you know, I felt bad about it,
and I wanted to meet up with him and personally
(06:12):
look him in the face and tell him that I
was sorry because I've been I've been vesting with people
and talk about him since I was a kid.
Speaker 8 (06:19):

The show was based out of this home, out of
my hometown, Indianapolis.
Speaker 7 (11:35):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (11:36):
And I thought of the idea, and I said, man,
you know, who could I get to be in this
with me? And I and I went down the list.
I thought about Tiffany Hatish, I thought about Jesse Larry's.
I thought about all these different ones, and I said, well,
if I want to do a Sam from the Son
or George Jefferson type show, I need that type of comedian.
(11:58):
So I thought of Wanda Sykes Man my producing partners.
I said, Wanda Sight, She's perfect. So I called Wanda,
and you know, it took her about two weeks to
call me back, and then she finally called me back.
She was like, yeah, what's up, Mike. Because that was
strange to her Mike Yef's call, I don't deal with.

Speaker 7 (13:16):
The current state of comedy right now.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
What you think about it with the cancel culture and
everybody being so sensitive to jokes and things like that,
what's your opinion on it?
Speaker 6 (13:26):
Well, you know, I think as a comedian, you really
gotta you got a weigh your odds.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
You know you got.
Speaker 8 (13:35):
You got one level of it.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
That makes sense. Every level of it makes sense. But
you got a.
Speaker 8 (13:43):
Group of guys over here.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
That are You think about Dave Chapelle, you think about
Kat Williams, you think about guys like Corey Hoker. These
dudes are fearless, man. These dudes ain't. They ain't thinking
like I'm thinking. See, I'm over there. They over there

Speaker 8 (15:32):
Area and you're not allowed to do it in.
Speaker 6 (15:35):

up roles that I didn't want to play. I did
when I first got in the business. One of the
first roles that I played, I played a movie with

first movie. Didn't nobody don't even know who.
Speaker 7 (26:32):

Speaker 6 (26:41):
I was Ben Diesels free a long time ago, Acts
of Violence.
Speaker 7 (26:46):
I was in that movie. Man.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
I played a million roles. That's why I even played
where they they told me that I was gay in
the but I didn't. I said, I'm gonna play the role,
but I ain't gay.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
What movie was that? It was?
Speaker 6 (27:02):
I was in the first episode of The Sopranos. Yes,
nigga me, they said, They said, guess what. This is
how they tricked me. They said, because I came in
I read for the motherfuckers. They said, you and this dude,
y'all stole the car. Y'all stole the car. Yeah, google it.
He said, y'all stole the car. I said, okay, we
(27:23):
stole the car. He and he said, he said, and
that's your boyfriend. No nigga before the rock before it started,
and I got offended, and the producer pulled me to
the side and said, what's the problem or you homophobicos son?
I said, nah, I ain't a homophore. But listen to this.
This is me.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Moving from Indiana to.
Speaker 6 (27:45):
No New York, nigga. I lived in New York for
fifteen years. That's where the fuck I moved to New York.
I moved to New York City when I was twenty
one years old. Didn't know, nobody, didn't know nothing, and
got fucked around in an audition for the motherfucker.
Speaker 8 (28:00):
Sopranos and got the role.
Speaker 7 (28:02):
Didn't have no money or nothing.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
He said, yeah, he said. I said, I ain't got
to touch him, do her? He said, no, y'all, just
you're just gonna be when when we come into house,
you're gonna holler for him and say Eddie. I said,
guess what, I don't know how to play a gay guy,
but I know how to talk like my mother.
Speaker 7 (28:22):
I know how to talk just like her. That's who
I grew up with, just me and my mama.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
So if I want to go into my mama, I
know how to do that. I said, I'm not gonna
let that test who I am.
Speaker 7 (28:36):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (28:36):
So I did the role, got my little money, and
moved on, you know what I'm saying, And it didn't
bother me.
Speaker 6 (28:44):
That's that's why I can sit right here and tell
you that I played the role. I worked with nothing
but gay people in Hollywood, some of the best people
in the world. Beautiful people save your life, probably do
more for you than the killer. Will killer let you
die because he's a killer, But the gay dude might
(29:06):
hug you a little tighter.
Speaker 7 (29:16):
Y'all gonna have to cut some of this shit because
I work in Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (29:21):
See that's why I don't like doing these motherfucker podcasts.
Speaker 7 (29:23):
I'm out here fuck this shit.
Speaker 8 (29:27):
No, for real, this is a real education for black.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
Men out there, black men, black men, black men, black men,
black man. You got to learn how to control your
mind and your emotions.
Speaker 7 (29:39):
With all of this stuff.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
The tough man role is gonna fuck your life up.
Being homophobic, gonna fuck your life up. Not growing up
and becoming a man when you're supposed to, gonna fuck
your life up. Got all these things that a fuck
a young man up. This was what fucks a young
(30:02):
man up. I was a young man, a light skinned
young man around dark skinned men. You know what kind
of fight that is in a fucking black community. That
shit ain't no joke. That's why when you go to
the penitentiary you run into all these light skin killers.
(30:23):
Bunch of light skin I'm talking about, man, you look like,
I'll be sure your help. I got life with our parole, bro,
you know what I mean? Because somebody might have touched
him when he was a kid that made.
Speaker 7 (30:33):
Him a monster. You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
This is what the kids need to hear right here.
You want to hear some shit, that's some shit you
need to hear.
Speaker 6 (30:44):
You're celebrating and your you're looking in the wrong areas.
You gotta know what you're dealing with. Man, this is life.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (30:55):
If don't nobody teach you, life itself is.
Speaker 7 (30:59):
Gonna teach you you. It'll whoop your ass and make
you humble, Calm you down, settle you down.
Speaker 8 (31:07):
Get to do all of that to you.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
I've been through hey, I've been on drugs. I've been
through hell. You know what I'm saying. I did most
of the movies on cocaine, all about the benjamins.
Speaker 7 (31:18):
I was, man.
Speaker 8 (31:19):
I used to sit in ice cubes trailer in the
morning and be crying tears.
Speaker 7 (31:23):
He like, wipe the face.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
Man, you a king nigga. Stop doing this shit to yourself.
I'm sitting there wiping myself because I was really, really, really.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
I was really.
Speaker 8 (31:35):
I had survivors remorse.
Speaker 6 (31:37):
I was so sad that I left all them niggas
here in this city and I was famous, and when
I would come home, I wanted them to be happy
for me, and they was mad at me.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
So I said, Damn, I gotta destroy myself to you
to like me. I was like, damn, my favorite nigga.
It seemed like he liked me more.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
When I'm coming down off coke and I'm crying and
I hate myself, he was.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
Like, oh, man, I love you, nigga.
Speaker 8 (32:03):
I'm praying for you.
Speaker 6 (32:05):
But when I wasn't high and I was working out
and I looked good, He's like, nigga, you think you
better than me? I said, nigga, how is my success
of reflection of your your failure?
Speaker 7 (32:16):
And that's what happens to the kids.
Speaker 6 (32:19):
They around here killing theirself, trying to fit in with
somebody who's fucked up.
Speaker 7 (32:26):
That's the truth. Now, I'm a comedian. Were supposed to
be laughing. I've been laughing the whole time.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
And the conversation that went there like that aduse because
comedians are dark people, man, we're dark.
Speaker 8 (32:40):
Cat Williams I got, I blessed her.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
I pray for that brother, man, I pray for that brother,
because that's some serious shit.
Speaker 8 (32:49):
The ship that he did on that podcast.
Speaker 7 (32:53):
Man, we better hope.
Speaker 6 (32:55):
All the people that he said ain't no killers because
he ain't gonna know who hit him. They got money,
they know niggas. It just take one of them to
wake up in the morning and say, you know what,
that's it.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
But then again, you know a lot of a lot
of those people that he said something about, they probably
ain't bothered because you know, you don't really they don't
move you for the truth.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
I mean either way, man, you know what I mean.
Everybody moves different, man, you know what I mean. And
that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (33:23):
That negativity sells like that.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Yeah, that's unfortunate. It s people are drawn to that,
to the negativity they are.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
That's why I had to go shake a shiner's hand,
because I can't control these dudes out here that'll just
go try to do something to him just to it.
Speaker 7 (33:41):
Ain't even for me.
Speaker 8 (33:42):
He just all, man, yeah, I'm like, you ain't riding
for me. I don't even know you.
Speaker 7 (33:47):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (33:49):
Just like some dudes wanted to come down here and
buy some weed for Steve, and I say, he don't
say a weed.
Speaker 7 (33:55):
Anymore.
Speaker 6 (33:56):
Man.

Speaker 3 (36:25):
No, but I was talking about making like a child
support card where every time you swipe it go like
it has to go to the kids to be able
to create a card like that for some transparency, because

Speaker 7 (01:03:31):
Yep. That's really today. That's the name of it.
Speaker 6 (01:03:34):
And the reason why I said that is because I
have per se been a real nigga so long that
it's not paying the way I wanted to pay. So
I'm watching all these dudes getting all this money and
stuff and I'm trying to figure out how to get it.
Speaker 7 (01:03:51):
I'm not putting on a dress. I was just about
to say that.
Speaker 8 (01:03:53):
So I'm not putting on a dress and I'm not
physically doing nothing for it.
Speaker 7 (01:04:02):
But whatever happened outside of that.
Speaker 6 (01:04:03):
Game, I mean, well, when I say sellout is like,
you know, whatever, whatever it the real nigga thing, it
ain't paying me.

Checked and ran out.

I say that, it limits you. You see and see
Now I'm adding this up with my age, Steve, I'm
at an age where I'm at a different age of you.
Speaker 7 (01:04:37):
I'm looking down to hell, so my mentality is different.
I'm like, damn, and I'm not really saying sellout.
Speaker 6 (01:04:46):
I'm gonna still be the same person, but I gotta
play the game a little bit more, man, I gotta
play the game.

and you do interviews, sometimes you know, depending on the
mold you in, you might not say some of the
things that you wanted to say. And sometimes I find
myself reiterating some of the things that I've already said
in the interviews. People don't seen my interviews a million
(02:56):
times on YouTube and stuff, So I just don't want
to say the same thing.

his podcast and Kat Williams and all this. You know,
it really made headlines, broke records. You recently got in
the manage. It was telling jokes how you tell jokes,
and it started starting getting back and forth.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
But I was glad I knew we would happen.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
You and Shannon were able to talk and figure it out,
and that happened. I think yesterday, if I'm not mistaken,
can you kind of, you know, to tell us what
it was about, but just how that came about and
where you guys are at now.
Speaker 6 (04:30):
Well, you know, we at the end of the day,
this is all entertainment, you know, that's what this is.
We're not selling drugs. We're not We're not in the underworld.
So there's some guidelines and rules to the business that
we're in. And you know, at the end of the day,
(04:51):
we got families, we got kids and stuff like that.
So sometime we can get out of line, man, you know,
and me.
Speaker 7 (04:57):
Personally, you know, I can get out of line a
little bit.
Speaker 6 (05:01):
Well, I said some stuff that I didn't some stuff
I shouldn't have said. Some of the stuff was good,
it was funny.
Speaker 8 (05:08):
Everybody was laughing.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
But then when I went back and looked at it,
I said, yeah, I kind of crossed the line a
little bit.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
But when you grow.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Across the line, you're already there. So I just didn't expect.
I just didn't expect the brother to get so mad
about it, you know. And then, like I said on
the on the podcast, I said, I said, a lot
of people have been talking about it. I mean, I
seen it on Saturday Night Live. I seen a lot

tell him to do. So when he said that, I said, damn,
you're right man. You I didn't look at it that
way first, And you know, it just brought some light
to me, man, And you know, I felt bad about it,
and I wanted to meet up with him and personally

The show was based out of this home, out of
my hometown, Indianapolis.
Speaker 7 (11:35):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (11:36):
And I thought of the idea, and I said, man,
you know, who could I get to be in this
with me? And I and I went down the list.
I thought about Tiffany Hatish, I thought about Jesse Larry's.
I thought about all these different ones, and I said, well,
if I want to do a Sam from the Son
or George Jefferson type show, I need that type of comedian.
(11:58):
So I thought of Wanda Sykes Man my producing partners.
I said, Wanda Sight, She's perfect. So I called Wanda,
and you know, it took her about two weeks to
call me back, and then she finally called me back.
She was like, yeah, what's up, Mike. Because that was
strange to her Mike Yef's call, I don't deal with.

TV show my whole career, so you know how many
times I've been told no, and to be able to
get one now, man, it's a blessing.
Speaker 7 (13:16):
The current state of comedy right now.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
What you think about it with the cancel culture and
everybody being so sensitive to jokes and things like that,
what's your opinion on it?
Speaker 6 (13:26):
Well, you know, I think as a comedian, you really
gotta you got a weigh your odds.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
You know you got.
Speaker 8 (13:35):
You got one level of it.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
That makes sense. Every level of it makes sense. But
you got a.
Speaker 8 (13:43):
Group of guys over here.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
That are You think about Dave Chapelle, you think about
Kat Williams, you think about guys like Corey Hoker. These
dudes are fearless, man. These dudes ain't. They ain't thinking
like I'm thinking. See, I'm over there. They over there
saying everything I want to say. But I can't mess
(14:08):

how to act in a movie.

I know how to yeah, I know how to do TV.
I know how to produce.
Speaker 6 (14:19):

They don't have nothing to do with that. Now, if
I take that lane right there, it might cut that
off because you.

you think.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
About Richard Pryor and Red Fox and Bernie Mack and
them kind of guys, man, they wouldn't have made it
in this time. You know, they would have probably just
walked away from the game because it's a damn shame
that you're allowed to.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
Do it in a different.
Speaker 8 (15:32):
Area and you're not allowed to do it in.
Speaker 6 (15:35):
The area that is really you supposed to be doing
to a Comedians are supposed to be able to say
whatever we want to say and crack a joke.

up roles that I didn't want to play. I did
when I first got in the business. One of the
first roles that I played, I played a movie with
Ben Diesel. It was called Strays. It was Ben Diesel's
first movie. Didn't nobody don't even know who.
Speaker 7 (26:32):
The fuck he was.
Speaker 8 (26:34):
That ludicrous character, the ludicrous.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
In the uh plaster fewis.
Speaker 7 (26:40):

Speaker 6 (26:41):
I was Ben Diesels free a long time ago, Acts
of Violence.
Speaker 7 (26:46):
I was in that movie. Man.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
I played a million roles. That's why I even played
where they they told me that I was gay in
the but I didn't. I said, I'm gonna play the role,
but I ain't gay.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
What movie was that? It was?
Speaker 6 (27:02):
I was in the first episode of The Sopranos. Yes,
nigga me, they said, They said, guess what. This is
how they tricked me. They said, because I came in
I read for the motherfuckers. They said, you and this dude,
y'all stole the car. Y'all stole the car. Yeah, google it.
He said, y'all stole the car. I said, okay, we
(27:23):
stole the car. He and he said, he said, and
that's your boyfriend. No nigga before the rock before it started,
and I got offended, and the producer pulled me to
the side and said, what's the problem or you homophobicos son?
I said, nah, I ain't a homophore. But listen to this.
This is me.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Moving from Indiana to.
Speaker 6 (27:45):
No New York, nigga. I lived in New York for
fifteen years. That's where the fuck I moved to New York.
I moved to New York City when I was twenty
one years old. Didn't know, nobody, didn't know nothing, and
got fucked around in an audition for the motherfucker.
Speaker 8 (28:00):
Sopranos and got the role.
Speaker 7 (28:02):
Didn't have no money or nothing.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
He said, yeah, he said. I said, I ain't got
to touch him, do her? He said, no, y'all, just
you're just gonna be when when we come into house,
you're gonna holler for him and say Eddie. I said,
guess what, I don't know how to play a gay guy,
but I know how to talk like my mother.
Speaker 7 (28:22):
I know how to talk just like her. That's who
I grew up with, just me and my mama.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
So if I want to go into my mama, I
know how to do that. I said, I'm not gonna
let that test who I am.
Speaker 7 (28:36):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (28:36):
So I did the role, got my little money, and
moved on, you know what I'm saying, And it didn't
bother me.
Speaker 6 (28:44):
That's that's why I can sit right here and tell
you that I played the role. I worked with nothing
but gay people in Hollywood, some of the best people
in the world. Beautiful people save your life, probably do
more for you than the killer. Will killer let you
die because he's a killer, But the gay dude might
(29:06):
hug you a little tighter.
Speaker 7 (29:16):
Y'all gonna have to cut some of this shit because
I work in Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (29:21):
See that's why I don't like doing these motherfucker podcasts.
Speaker 7 (29:23):
I'm out here fuck this shit.
Speaker 8 (29:27):
No, for real, this is a real education for black.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
Men out there, black men, black men, black men, black men,
black man. You got to learn how to control your
mind and your emotions.
Speaker 7 (29:39):
With all of this stuff.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
The tough man role is gonna fuck your life up.
Being homophobic, gonna fuck your life up. Not growing up
and becoming a man when you're supposed to, gonna fuck
your life up. Got all these things that a fuck
a young man up. This was what fucks a young
(30:02):
man up. I was a young man, a light skinned
young man around dark skinned men. You know what kind
of fight that is in a fucking black community. That
shit ain't no joke. That's why when you go to
the penitentiary you run into all these light skin killers.
(30:23):
Bunch of light skin I'm talking about, man, you look like,
I'll be sure your help. I got life with our parole, bro,
you know what I mean? Because somebody might have touched
him when he was a kid that made.
Speaker 7 (30:33):
Him a monster. You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
This is what the kids need to hear right here.
You want to hear some shit, that's some shit you
need to hear.
Speaker 6 (30:44):
You're celebrating and your you're looking in the wrong areas.
You gotta know what you're dealing with. Man, this is life.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (30:55):
If don't nobody teach you, life itself is.
Speaker 7 (30:59):
Gonna teach you you. It'll whoop your ass and make
you humble, Calm you down, settle you down.
Speaker 8 (31:07):
Get to do all of that to you.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
I've been through hey, I've been on drugs. I've been
through hell. You know what I'm saying. I did most
of the movies on cocaine, all about the benjamins.
Speaker 7 (31:18):
I was, man.
Speaker 8 (31:19):
I used to sit in ice cubes trailer in the
morning and be crying tears.
Speaker 7 (31:23):
He like, wipe the face.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
Man, you a king nigga. Stop doing this shit to yourself.
I'm sitting there wiping myself because I was really, really, really.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
I was really.
Speaker 8 (31:35):
I had survivors remorse.
Speaker 6 (31:37):
I was so sad that I left all them niggas
here in this city and I was famous, and when
I would come home, I wanted them to be happy
for me, and they was mad at me.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
So I said, Damn, I gotta destroy myself to you
to like me. I was like, damn, my favorite nigga.
It seemed like he liked me more.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
When I'm coming down off coke and I'm crying and
I hate myself, he was.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
Like, oh, man, I love you, nigga.
Speaker 8 (32:03):
I'm praying for you.
Speaker 6 (32:05):
But when I wasn't high and I was working out
and I looked good, He's like, nigga, you think you
better than me? I said, nigga, how is my success
of reflection of your your failure?
Speaker 7 (32:16):
And that's what happens to the kids.
Speaker 6 (32:19):
They around here killing theirself, trying to fit in with
somebody who's fucked up.
Speaker 7 (32:26):
That's the truth. Now, I'm a comedian. Were supposed to
be laughing. I've been laughing the whole time.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
And the conversation that went there like that aduse because
comedians are dark people, man, we're dark.
Speaker 8 (32:40):
Cat Williams I got, I blessed her.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
I pray for that brother, man, I pray for that brother,
because that's some serious shit.
Speaker 8 (32:49):
The ship that he did on that podcast.
Speaker 7 (32:53):
Man, we better hope.
Speaker 6 (32:55):
All the people that he said ain't no killers because
he ain't gonna know who hit him. They got money,
they know niggas. It just take one of them to
wake up in the morning and say, you know what,
that's it.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
But then again, you know a lot of a lot
of those people that he said something about, they probably
ain't bothered because you know, you don't really they don't
move you for the truth.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
I mean either way, man, you know what I mean.
Everybody moves different, man, you know what I mean. And
that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (33:23):
That negativity sells like that.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Yeah, that's unfortunate. It s people are drawn to that,
to the negativity they are.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
That's why I had to go shake a shiner's hand,
because I can't control these dudes out here that'll just
go try to do something to him just to it.
Speaker 7 (33:41):
Ain't even for me.
Speaker 8 (33:42):
He just all, man, yeah, I'm like, you ain't riding
for me. I don't even know you.
Speaker 7 (33:47):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (33:49):
Just like some dudes wanted to come down here and
buy some weed for Steve, and I say, he don't
say a weed.
Speaker 7 (33:55):
Anymore.
Speaker 6 (33:56):
Man.

Speaker 3 (36:25):
No, but I was talking about making like a child
support card where every time you swipe it go like
it has to go to the kids to be able
to create a card like that for some transparency, because

it was like I was in.
