Speaker 2 (00:23):
Jah and I'm your host Qward.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
All right, Tyreek Winn, Welcome back to the show.
Speaker 4 (00:28):

Speaker 1 (00:28):
It's been it's been a couple of weeks, not too long,
but uh, what's the latest? Man?

Everything everything has been great, moving into the new year
nice and smoothly getting these goals knocked out.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Man, it's been great.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
I actually for my work at BI and I was.
Speaker 5 (00:44):
Recognized for my anchor work even the News Anchor of
the Year award.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yeah yeah, so I heard about that.
Speaker 5 (00:51):
It's going to be presented to me by Seema TV
and then also ABC NON and Columbus.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
So I'm excited about.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
That, right man. Well you keep going, you man, what
are you?
Speaker 4 (01:01):
I need to talk to you more often, Tyrek. That
energy is contagious man, Yes, sir, and that shirt too.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
I'm a winner. I like that.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Oh yeah, this is actually my personal clothing brand, Tyreek
Went Collection.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Okay, all right, even better, I like it more. Now okay, well,
let's get to people what they came for. First off,
is from NBC. At its first news conference since the
aircraft collision over the Potomac River, President Donald Trump implied
Thursday that diversity, equity and inclusion programs could be the cause,
although an investigation into the fatal disaster has only just begun. Quote,
(01:32):
we have to have our smartest people as air traffic controllers,
Trump said Thursday morning. It doesn't matter what they look like,
how they speak, who they are. They have to be talented.
Naturally talented geniuses. Can't have regular people doing their job.
We can't have regular people doing this job. They won't
be able to do it, but will restore faith in
(01:53):
American air travel. Trump spent a considerable amount of time
discussing the Federal Aviation Administration's DEI initiatives, particularly under Presidents
Joe Biden and Barack Obama. He cited the FAA's acknowledgment
of underemployment of employees with disabilities. A week before he
took office, Trump said that the FAA website said quote,
people with severe disabilities are the most underrepresented segment of
(02:16):
the workforce, that they want them to be air traffic controllers.
I don't think so. That's a quote from Trump the
I don't think so, all right. Later Thursday, a White
House memo said the Biden administration recruited individuals with severe
intellectual disabilities in the FAA under diversity, equity and inclusion hiring.
(02:37):
When he was asked whether he believed the crash was
the result of diversity hiring, Trump said, quote, it could
have been, so, Yeah, this one was obviously something that
we had a lot of conversations about in our circles,
talked to us about about how this was reflect Get
(03:00):
in your path.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Terry, Yeah, this was definitely interesting.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
First, I mean, I don't understand so looking at a
couple of things here. One, I mean, I don't see
how d I has anything to do with it, is
the first thing, right, And then I was looking at
this quote when he said we have to have our
smartest people as air traffic controllers. Are you saying that
(03:26):
people who aren't white aren't smart, you know, or like
like like like what does that mean?
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Yeah, that's the big, that's the big. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
So I'm kind of confused as to like what exactly
do you mean by that?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
What are you saying?
Speaker 5 (03:41):
You know, it seems like you're trying to say something
without actually saying it, you know. But I mean we
like we know what he's saying, right, we know exactly
what he means and stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
But I mean, this is this is who he is.
I'm I'm not surprised. I mean that this, this, this
is the this is who was elected.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
So we gotta do it.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Indeed, que I've seen people call it dog whistling, but
there's no veil, Like there's you know, dog whistle. You
got to kind of read through some layers and translate
a little bit. It's not a dog whistle. It's blatant,
outright racism. For the first words out of your mouth
after a massive, you know, fatal plane crash.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
To be, let me figure out.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
The way that I can insult some people right away
before I even give my pretend thoughts and prayers. Let
me be my true evil self and insult anybody who's
not a straight white man. Right, you can't be smarter
or intelligent or qualified unless you're a straight white man,
is what he's saying. Right, the word diversity used as
a pejorative, meaning anybody that doesn't look like me couldn't
(04:51):
have possibly been qualified to be involved with keeping people safe.
So if something bad happens, then of course some black
people are involved, right, some disabled people, some women, you know,
someone from some country that I've insulted multiple times has
to be in charge here if something goes wrong. You know, ironically,
(05:11):
we haven't had accidents like this in fifteen or sixteen years,
and none during the Biden administration.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Just you know, wanted to point that out. Yeah, yeah,
you know.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
The uh, the crazy thing about this is that I
forget the name of the person, but it was in
the article. I'm sure maybe you guys might know the name.
If not, I don't worry about it. But there was
a gentleman who actually researched whether or not the FAA
was seeking out intentionally seeking out people with severe disabilities,
and the answer was no. They could not find any
(05:42):
proof that that was ever the case, nor did they
find any proof that anywhere in the government were people
seeking out folks with severe disabilities. The inclusive element when
it comes to you know, like pilots is kind of
one of those things where or you know, we know this,
of course, and I know that I'm kind of preaching
(06:03):
to the choir here with of course US three and
then our listeners. Is that it's kind of like a
good old boys network, you know. I think it's something
like ninety three percent of pilots are white and ninety
four percent of pilots are male, right, And so it
ends up kind of being a good old boys network.
(06:25):
Most pilots are white men by a very very very
long way, and white men are overrepresented in that population.
And what ends up happening is people if you accept
that people are all born with more or less the
same general capabilities and can learn or you know, accomplish
things or commit things or whatever more or less at
(06:47):
the same rate. And when you look where the numbers
overrepresent one group or underrepresent another group, that's where you
want to apply your efforts to bring about.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Equity, right, And.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
If you don't do that, you know, like there was
a there was a conservative pundit. I won't even say
his name, but he see he says something to the
effect of you know, when I get onto an airplane,
if I see that the pilot is black, I'm worried
that I hope that he's qualified enough. And of course
the implication there is if I see a pilot that's white,
(07:23):
everything's okay here. And I think that what that shows,
beyond obviously the racism, is that people are very accustomed
to seeing white men in leadership positions, and that in
no way means that black people are not qualified for
those positions. It's just historically people have kind of grown
up in a world where they've seen that more frequently
because of societal injustices, and the DEI Diversity, Equity and
(07:49):
Inclusion initiatives were meant to remedy that, which would ultimately
translate into a form of restorative economic justice, would translate
into a form of you know, you know, criminal justice, reform,
healthcare outcomes, and so forth, you know, because a lot
of these things are very much interconnected. Another thing I'd
like to add here is that from what I gather,
(08:11):
all of the pilots were white or at least white
passing here. So for him to use DEI in the
way that he does, you know, because he's not talking
about disabilities per se. He always uses DEI to kind
of somehow suggest that black people are not qualified to
hold the positions that they do.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
And so all these people that.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Were piloting everything were white, and I believe the co
pilot on the helicopter was a woman, a white woman,
but again the co pilot there, and that was a
training mission, and so you know, you know, make what
you will of that. And then just another fun fact here,
I think I came across something that suggested that the
(08:50):
air traffic controllers on duty that night were also white men.
But I wanted to reconfirm that before we have this conversation.
And what I found is I just couldn't find who
was on that night, but I did come across this bit,
and I want to leave you with this. Seventy eight
percent of air traffic controllers and operations specialists are men,
and seventy one percent rather identify as non Hispanic white.
(09:14):
And so again you have another gross overrepresentation of one
particular type of person. And if your excuse is that
the reason that they're overrepresented there is because they're the
most qualified, then your racism is laid bare for all
of us to see. Next up, this from the Black
Information Network. Democratic Senator Angela Also Brooks didn't hold back
(09:39):
on questioning Health and Human Services nominee Robert F. Kennedy
Junior over his claims that black Americans have a better
immune system than white people. On Thursday, January thirtieth, Also Brooks,
one of the two black women senators, questioned Kennedy on
his controversial views on vaccinations during his second confirmation hearing.
Per The Hill, Kennedy previously claimed that quote, we should
(10:02):
not be giving black people the same vaccine schedule that's
given to whites because their immune system is better than
ours unquote. The vaccine schedule recommends when children and teens
should receive excuse me, vaccines and immunisations.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
There are only a few.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Exceptions to the schedule, including for children who have chronic
conditions or take medications that weaken their immune systems. Also,
Brooks asked Kennedy to clarify what he meant by his
previous remarks.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
A series of studies, I think most of them by
Poland show that to particular antigens, that Blacks have a
much stronger reaction unquote. He goes on to say there's
a difference in reaction to different products by different races.
Also Brooks interjected during Kennedy's response, asking him what type
of schedule she should have received for vaccinations. Kennedy then
(10:51):
suggested that black people need fewer antigens than white people,
to which also Brooks responded was dangerous rhetoric. So, I mean,
I have my feelings here, but Tyreek, it's your show,
talk to me a little bit.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah, yeah, So I saw this.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
It was pretty interesting, but I already knew from the
get go. So so when Robert was actually running for president,
I actually did a sit down, one on one interview
with him, and so we were talking about, like he
was talking to me about his views on health and stuff.
So he's always had interesting views on health and vaccines
(11:29):
and these things in various natures.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
So we knew, like this.
Speaker 5 (11:32):
Wasn't something that I guess I would say, really surprised me.
So I would say, but as far as the thing
when he says, you know, blacks, because blacks have a
stronger immune system than whites, I mean, I feel like, necessarily, okay,
since necessarily since I've been around, I feel like that
(11:53):
that our race deals with more health issues than white
people anyway. I mean, there's so many different different things
that you know, I'm sure that we've all dealt with
when it comes to our families, friends, you know, whatever
the case may be. And so I don't necessarily agree
with that statement that he that he's saying that blacks
(12:14):
have a stronger immune system. I would say that when
he was talking about these because what I wanted to
know the main thing, what statistics do he does he
have to show that And he's saying that a series
of studies from Bipoland or whatever, But what exactly is that, Like,
what is that saying?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
What?
Speaker 5 (12:36):
Like I need that to be a little bit deeper
so I can understand exactly what those stats are saying
and how did that even like, how did they come
to that conclusion saying that that Blacks have a stronger
reaction to different antigens and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
So, uh, little little confused about that.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
So I would like to, you know, go deeper into
that to see exactly what's happening, you know, what exactly
that study is showing specifically.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
And then there was one more part.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Oh yeah, so and I did see this part that
that was pretty key, says she will be voting against
his nomination because its views are dangerous to the state
and dangerous to the country. And I do think that
that type of thinking is pretty dangerous. I mean, you know,
you excluding a certain race because your opinion is that
they have a stronger immune system, and they're going to
(13:32):
get less than this race because you think that their
immune system isn't as strong as this race.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
You know, it's just kind of it's just kind of wrong, exactly.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
You know.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
I try really hard not to be doom and gloom,
but this is so much worse than everybody thinks like
it that the idea that they blame DEI for things
while appointing the least qualified people in the history of
our country to run every department in the country is
just It would be laughable if it wasn't so scary,
(14:09):
Like if we didn't have to live here and we
could just watch America on TV, this would be a
great reality show and all the f around.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
And find outs and jokes would be funny.
Speaker 4 (14:18):
Except we live here too, so we have to find
out too, So we have to experience Mayhem two. So
we have to watch our country spiral two, like we're
not watching the sinking ship on a movie so that
we can critique it. We're on it. So when you
listen to him speak, even if he was saying something sensible,
(14:41):
it would be scary, but he's saying the most. I'm
trying to be nice because I got my brother Tyrek here,
you know what I mean. Like it's watching all these
hearings and watch everyone who questions all these appointees, disapprove
of them, but knowing they're going to be appointed.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Anyway, God bless our hearts. Man.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
You know, the thing about this is that, first off,
I know that countries scientists are not above bogus science.
The cephalic index comes to mind for those familiar with
how scientists justified slavery. They suggested that the slope of
(15:31):
our foreheads made us ideal for servitude, and that was
our natural state, and we were less involved than white
people and so forth, And they used this bogus science
to justify slavery for those who religion wasn't their thing, right,
it's not founded, it's you know whatever. But we're talking
about science that comes from Poland.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Now.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
I don't know if you guys know Poland the way
that I do, But Poland is not really known for
its black folks. So I would be interested if this
data exists and is somehow well founded or scientific in nature.
Who did they sample? How old is this data? You
(16:15):
know a lot of women think that, you know, pregnancy
is dangerous after thirty five, because the data that suggested
pregnancies after thirty five is from the sixteen hundreds in France,
and it was the samples size was peasants. They were
dealing with a plague, and so that's why women don't
think that they have viable pregnancies after thirty five. And
(16:35):
it's just not true. It's not well founded science. So
I'd love to know how old this data is as well.
I'd also like to know how much black makes you black,
because one thing that is true of the majority of
us in this country is that we are very mixed up.
And so how scientific could this antigen assessment be by
(16:57):
this non doctor who is taking data from Polish scientists.
And I use my air quotes here to try to
make a determination as to the vaccination schedule that black
people should be on when the general consensus of the
scientific community is that all of us are essentially the
(17:19):
same Homo sapien sapiens and so, yeah, my hair grows
a little curly because my follicles are hooked.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
You know. Outside of that, we more or less the
same fam.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Black Information Network news anchor Tyreek When is here with
us discussing the weekend's major stories. All right, Next up
from People, a Georgia healthcare worker is facing charges over
viral videos on TikTok where she appears to dance suggestively
atop the head of a patient with disabilities. Lucretia Coomasa Koyan, nineteen,
(17:58):
of Loganville, faces there's one felonyccount of exploitation of a
disabled person, Loganville Police Chief MD Laurie said in a
news release on Tuesday, January twenty eighth. Coyan is allegedly
the healthcare worker who posted a viral video on TikTok
where she appears to twerk atop the head of a
male patient who is sitting in a chair. People has
reviewed the footage. Loganville police were made aware of the
(18:20):
video on January twenty third. Lourie said police executed a
search warrant on Tuesday, January twenty eighth and arrested Coyan,
who was booked into the Walton County Jail. Coyon was
bonded out of jail early Wednesday. The Walton County Sheriff's
Office confirmed to People information on an attorney and bail
amount was not immediately available. So this one was a little,
a little weird, a little strange. Yeah, I mean her
(18:42):
age jumped out to me. But you know, you know,
talk to us, Tyrek.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Yeah, well this actually so this happened part for me
and I've seen.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
Like nothing really surprises me anymore, anything that's in Georgia, Atlanta.
I mean, this isn't Pacific Le Atlanta, but it's you know,
it's close to met Like, okay, yeah, Atlanta's not a
real place because the things that take the things that
take place here are just absolutely just insane. And this
I didn't even know, Like I was reading the I
(19:17):
was reading the charge it says exploitation of a disabled person.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Didn't even know that was a thing.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
Honestly, I had, you know, as a charge I had
never heard. I mean obviously I knew, like you know,
there's are certain laws, but that was a charge that
I never heard of. So that was I was like,
that was, you know, something I learned new. But yeah,
this is just just crazy, insensitive and too to do.
(19:45):
I'm just trying to figure out where did you get
the idea or have the audacity to do.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Something like this while this person's disabled.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
Second of all, you twerking on top of their head
like there's and I feel like they're I mean, I
didn't necessarily see the video, but like what she.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:05):
I didn't see the video, but I mean, at the
same time, I feel like there could be some maybe
some sexual charges up in there somewhere.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
That what they were talking about.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Yeah, yeah, I didn't really see any of that, but
I'm surprised that that wasn't part of the charges as well.
Speaker 6 (20:21):
But yeah, this is a crazy situation. It's Black History Month, y'all. Yeah,
I mean, like it's Black History Month. People listening can't
see me. I think flabbergasted is.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
The word that.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Yeah, Like I knew when I started seeing people twerking
that brunch, I knew that it was a slippery slope.
Take our new president throw in twerking on disabled people.
Add that we we celebrating Black History Month, but the
(21:06):
country no longer is but not a country re is? Yeah,
can we just get Frankie Beverly and mays back, Yeah, man,
that sounds like this time this is a lot man.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Yeah, Tarik.
Speaker 7 (21:26):
When we get to Atlanta, we're gonna for at least
ten seconds, it's going to be an embrace as we
all just try to collectively heal and help each other
get through what has already been an incredibly long year.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I like that. I like that.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
You know what, one of the things, like I said,
this stood out to me was that immediately I read
that her age was nineteen, and then that for me
at least framed everything. That doesn't make it right, of course,
but I recognize that. You know, when you're nineteen, there
are certain pressures that you're dealing with.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
There's a certain.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Level of formation that your brain has achieved. At that point,
you're not your complete self. You're behaving in ways that
are again consistent with the forces of your you know,
your social order. And you know, then I found out
she's doing this for TikTok, I'm like, okay, well, you
(22:28):
know that that kind of checks out.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Now.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Again, it doesn't make it right, but at least it
didn't feel like abuse.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
You know, it felt like a young woman. You know.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Let me combine talking with something no one else is
combined working with because working videos go viral, and then
I will have worth and I'll be celebrated and I'll
matter beyond just the same seven people I see every
day and whatever. Right again, not justifying it wrong is wrong.
But I think that it shows. If it shows something
(23:04):
about this woman's character, then I think it also shows
just as much about where the cultural paradigm is right now,
and I think that that helps to make your point. Q.
So for me, it just felt like a kid doing
kid stuff, you know, And I know she's an adult,
but you know she's still a teenager, and I have
(23:24):
a teenager. I know I was a teenager, so I
get it. So for our final story today, this from
USA Today. A former University of Tennessee pharmacy student was
awarded two hundred and fifty thousand dollars after arguing that
her First Amendment rights were violated when the college threatened
to expel her over a social media post containing lyrics
from the rapper Cardi B's hit song Wop.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Kimberly Daiz sued.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
UT's Health Science Center College of Pharmacy in twenty twenty
one after her post on x then known as Twitter,
prompted two administrative investigations.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
It nearly led to her expulsion.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
According to the complaint obtained by US SAY Today, the
college deemed Dai's post, which she shared under the pseudonym Kimikassi,
were two crude, vulgar, or sexual. The lawsuit says Dai
alleged that her public university was violating her constitutional rights
by policing personal off campus expression on social media. The
(24:18):
complaint reads. The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression or FIRE,
announced the settlement on Wednesday with the nonprofit and DIIZ
attorneys Greg H. Grubel, one of them saying UT's Pharmacy
School learned an important lesson today. There is nothing unprofessional
about students expressing love of hip hop and their sexuality
(24:38):
on social media. Quote Kim has proven something Fire has
said for twenty five years. The First Amendment robustly protects students'
rights to have a voice outside of the school, even
if college administrators don't like what.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
They have to say. Quote So, yeah, this one. I
don't know this one. I'm sure it inspired some thoughts.
Take us there, tyrek.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Yeah, so I actually see both sides of it.
Speaker 5 (25:02):
One We've always been told be careful what you post
on social media.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
It can affect the future. This was one of those situations, right.
Speaker 5 (25:12):
You know, I can say me personally, if I did
something like that, I'll probably be fired. You know, like
there's just certain things that you just can't do, depending
on what kind of situation you're in. In this case,
she seemed like she was in a very profound program
where you know, they were taking the next steps to
(25:32):
basically get her out of the school, right, And so
it just goes to show you that what you post
on social media can affect you currently and then in
the future. I mean, we've seen tons of stories where
people have dug up tweets from certain people who are
in good positions and they have lost their jobs, lost
every I mean lost plenty of stuff. Right, So it's
(25:54):
very important that we always watch and be careful what
we post on social media. As the lawsuit First Amendment rights, yeah,
I mean I see it, I get it. But at
the same time, we I mean, you still gotta watch
what you post, right. And then also, I mean, I'm
sure she's not the only student that has used a
(26:15):
negative song or I mean a song that had a
song that's about sex and body parts and all of
that stuff. I'm sure she's not the only one. I mean,
you got to keep in mind, this is college. You know,
college is a you know, college is that kind of
place sometimes where I mean, you don't have other individuals
(26:35):
who are going to do stuff like this. So I mean, yeah,
I'm one hundred percent sure she's not the only one.
So why is I mean, I'm not saying she's being
singled out, but I mean it seems like she's being
sing without which, like I said, I'm sure she's not
the only person who's done this.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
So it's interesting.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
But I mean, kudos are in a lawsuit?
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Well, Q No, I'm with you, Tyry. I see both
sides of it. We've always known that we have to
be careful what we say.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
I've always understood that the First Amendment protects you from
prosecution or you know, being getting in.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Legal trouble for what you say.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
But I've also always known that at work or at
you know, your place of business, or I don't know
if I've ever even thought about it with regards to school,
that what you say and what you share on social
media could have some impact on outcomes for you. But now,
as I was saying that right now. I just realized
I've only thought that with regard to work, because typically
(27:38):
places of employment put that right in the employee handbook,
you know, reminding you that the things you do outside
of work represent this company too. So even when you're
not in the building and don't have your uniform or
your badge on, you know, you have to be weary
of the things that you share. As a student, again,
I can't listen to Cardi when I'm not in class,
(28:03):
you know. I know her lyrics are a little bit
more expressive than some, but just like you said, I
should be able to express.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Myself as an adult, and if.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
It has no direct impact on my studies, I'm respectful
of my classmates and you know, and of my professors.
It shouldn't be something that impacts me negatively. So I
can see both sides of it, kind of because I
never really thought about it in regard to being a student.
My mind immediately went to, like you said, us at
work and how that would impact us with the corporations
(28:38):
that we work for.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
But as a student, I'm not sure.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
So that's that's something that I kind of developed a
little bit more of my thinking on as we are covering.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
This, well, I think I'm right there with you. It
is a two sides, you know situation. If somebody was
working for me, you know, of course, I would not
want to have to deal with any sort of backlash
or someone was under my supervisory control, I would not
want to have to deal with any backlash of their
(29:09):
behavior beyond the scope of you know, our arrangement if
they were a bad person, Like if someone worked for
me and then outside of work they were reading, you know,
Nazi literature, quoting you know what I'm saying, like that
I would have an issue with, not that that's the
same as Cardi b lyrics, but you get what I'm saying.
But at the same time, if I was working for
(29:32):
somebody and they wanted to exercise some form of control
over who I am as a human being beyond the
work that I do.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
As long as I'm hitting.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
My deliverables, I should be free to also live a
life that I decide makes me happy and express myself
in a way that is consistent with my character and
my nature. And so I think that for this one,
for her, I'm happy for her. I think that that
was the right outcome in this instance, but that one
is tricky and I think that seeing both sides is
(30:04):
the right way to look at it. So with that said,
I think we're all going to have to leave that
one right there, so don't forget. These and more stories
