Speaker 3 (00:10):
I'm sorry. The beautiful inlaying live experience.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Me and Matt Alsowski killing the beat soft leader brother
that produces all the music for this.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
We did a poetry album together.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
We will be doing it live October twenty second at
the Allegian Theater in Los Angeles. Tickets are in the
show notes. It's pretty small theaters, so please get your

tap in with me. You know what I'm saying, Come
hang out, Please buy these tickets. I have to sell
(00:43):
this out. Okay, happy, let's do this.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
I'm gonna need a second.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I don't know when these people don't learn that they
don't want it with Jasmine. Y'all really don't want to
smoke with missus Jasmine Crockett, congress woman from Texas. But
Lauren Lumer decided she was gonna shoot her shot. And
when she shot her incredibly disgusting racist shot, my first
(01:32):
thought was, oh, I cannot wait for this. I cannot
wait for Jasmine to just show how intelligently petty she is.
But then I was also thinking, what if she does
just show that class that black women always show.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
And then my third thought was, like, of.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Everything that Lauren Lumer said, I feel like I've heard
that before.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
It's crazy how racism don't change. Tap in with me, y'all.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
All right, what I thought was fake news, what I
swear to you, I thought was an internet meme because
it the seventh grade racism of it all really took
me back in a way that was just so jarring,
(02:37):
because not only was it disgusting, it was just so
childish anyway. But apparently this, this woman, Lauren Luhmer, got
the ear of the president. She didn't figure something out.
Let me give her that. Now, if you weren't terminally
online like the rest of us, good for you, don't
be just tap in with me here and there.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
So.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Representative Jasmine Crockett responds to criticism from GOP senators about
making a day to honor Charlie Kirk and I don't
know if y'all notice, but our Congress voted to do that,
to make a day to honor that man. Now, I
don't know what I'm missing. I still don't see it.
(03:24):
I still don't see it, y'all. And Jasmine put it
in the most respectful way. And what she said was
when she looked at the senators that voted against making
a day to honor this man, she noticed that the
entirety of the people that voted against it were people
of color, and there was only two white people. She said, Caucasis,
(03:46):
there's only two Caucasians that voted against this. And she
was like, I'm kind of sad, you know, because of
how clearly obvious it was that that man's rhetoric was
so damaging, which to me is like That's why I'm like,
I still don't see it. But like I don't see
I don't see how his proclamation of faith somehow undoes
(04:09):
the racism. I just don't it. That math is never
going math to me. But that being said, she put it.
She put it when she was like, this dude, his
words are his movement. It's just it's just so damaging
and dangerous for people of color. She was like, man,
I was kind of I was kind of surprised, you know,
(04:32):
and like a little hurt that. Like I just thought
in the same way that when you read an interview
that Alex Haley had of Martin Luther King when he
said he was very surprised that the people that were
the most difficult to convince to work with us, and
(04:53):
a lot of times, he said, a lot of times
worked against us were my white brothers and sisters within
the faith, other Christian leaders. He was like, I'm shocked
at like, y'all you were the biggest hindrance to us,
(05:14):
you know. And that's the stuff that I feel, like,
this is just me talking right now, Like this isn't
me telling you to tap in. This is me being honest.
That's the feeling I feel about when people are praising
Charlie Kirk. I feel the way Martin Luther King must
have felt when he looked at first Baptist Church down
(05:35):
the street in Birmingham that was just a white congregation,
and how they were vehemently opposed to what he was
trying to do. Or it's like, are you serious anyway?
Not comparing myself to doctor King, obviously, but I'm just
saying just the way it felt.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
She tags Jasmine right.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
And then goes on, I mean, listen, if it's not
already the idea that you was willing to say ghetto
black bitches to a sitting congresswoman, not even a sitting
congresswoman just to a woman period and didn't think you
wasn't gonna get your ass beat, which is what should happen.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Right, But.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Either way, that was the that was the tweet, right,
which as again most of y'all know that it should
be a fad.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Right.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Then she goes on to say, Jasmine Crockets, you know,
homeboys and homegirls are big mad. I called her what
she is, ghetto. I guess I finna watch my back,
God forbid, Shaniko pops a cap in my ass?
Speaker 3 (06:39):
You feels me. So that's the type of stuff that
she says, right.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
And then in replying to Jamila Hill being like, yo,
are you really is this really where you at?
Speaker 3 (06:51):
She was like, I meant everywhere. Actually, Like I.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Just openly this is what I mean by seventh grade
you calling her Shanikua. Should I run down her credentials?
I'm gonna let you google that. But you know what,
I shouldn't have to run down her credentials. There's no
way in the world you should. There's nothing I need
(07:15):
to explain to you for that. But that's the context.
Do y'all remember when Margie Taylor Green wanted to smoke
with her do y'all remember that when she was when
they were in session and she was commenting on Jasmine's
appearance on what's appropriate, and Jasmine kept it cool, and
(07:37):
then she was like, hey, listen, well let me ask
you this. Uh would it be appropriate if I were
to say bleach blonde, bad built, butch body? And in
talking to Margie Taylor Green and then she was like, oh,
real mature, and it's like, uh, ma'am, I'm just saying
you commenting about my big hoop ear rings and nails.
(07:57):
I'm just saying it's inappropriate. You see how you dish
it out, but you can't take it. I don't understand
why these women still want to smoke. Now, if you've
ever seen Lauren Luhmer's face, Okay, this is something that
again the black end me says, you are asking to
be roasted. Right, just like that brother when we first
(08:18):
started doing the tap ins that was trying to convince
us that the three fits compromise wasn't about slavery. He
was standing there in them little tight white pants. I
was like, I have to roast you because what you're
saying is so absurd, right, So part of me got
excited for the way Jasmine is gonna respond to this.
But then the other part was like, I'm tired for
(08:41):
black women, Like whether it's Katanji Brown, whether it's Jasmine Crockett,
it don't matter how many suffixes you got at the
end of your name, it don't matter.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
How freakishly more qualified you are.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Then this person who talking this shit about you, lay
and Lumer ran for Congress twice and lost. That's not
even the point. Wasn't nobody even talking to her, wouldn't
have even brought her up and.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Checked this out.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Jasmine wasn't even talking to her when they when this
lady decided to step in. So finally, after a week,
US Rep. Jasmine Crockett finally clapped back at the conservative
podcaster after all of that racist shit and checked this
out while attending I'm reading this from Yahoo News. While
(09:37):
attending a Congressional Black Caucus Week in Washington, DC, Crockett
briefly addressed the personal online attacks in a true Chasmin
Crockett fashion, and it came in the form of wit
and shade.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And this is what she said.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
I know that some of y'all think I am, you know,
younger than I am but just so y'all know, I
am twelve years old older than Lauren Lumer. Now, if
you look at them, two pitches next to them, I
want y'all to know that Steven Miller is forty. I like,
look at it's just like the hate just adds twenty
(10:12):
five years to their face. So listen, she ain't even
gotta be racist. She ain't gotta add note. She ain't
got to insult that woman's intelligence. She was just like,
I know, y'all think it's because listen, this is how
we grow up. You ain't gonna roast me. You have
to understand we know what we're doing. Okay, Laura and
Lumer thirty two years old, Yoe, I'm just gonna let you.
(10:37):
Let you deal with that one. Listen, Leading Black Women Alone.
The poem this week from The Endling The Beautiful Endling
is a poem called Answers Now and Answers. It's supposed
to be a depiction of couples therapy.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
That's kind of the idea.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
When you feel like you got more questions and answers,
and then answers and then questions are being a bully
and you're really not saying what you want to say.
So this is in the spirit of everybody not saying
what they want to say.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Tap in with me.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Sometimes I feel my emotions have a concussion. You ask
me how I feel nauseous, a cacophony of weight or
what she says she ain't happy. I'm sorry, I'm gonna
need a second.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
This therapy thing is new.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I spent most of my life saying how I feel
in metaphor literal.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Is it boring?
Speaker 3 (12:08):
You need to feel what I feel.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I carry, not that masculinity that crushes what it loves,
that lies to its own reflection, that sieves all feelings
through a grid of competition life and a dig measuring game.
And I don't care about your race. I'm too focused
on mind I carry. The failure is not an option type.
You ain't happy, I'm gonna need a second. Are you
(12:55):
familiar with this moment? When there are far more questions
than answers can even answers severely outgunned and outmatched, punching
well above its weight class.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
It's not even close.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Questions bullying little old.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Answers like y'all better get from around here. This ain't
your hood where your mama live. Questions bending and contorting
their fingers into various combos of letters, letting answers know
that y'all don turned down the wrong block. Questions giggling
over answers much trade, just trying to decide which snack
they gonna take first. Questions feeling your comment sections like
(13:35):
y'all just gonna have to deactivate your account. Questions singing
answers revenge, porn knife to answers, mama's neck looking at
answer like god, dare you answers looking at questions like
I thought we was friends? Yet in the Yang binary stars,
questions have grown weary of being problem with not.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Solution, while does answer always get the last word?
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Don't answer that?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
What am I feeling right now?
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Don't dizzy? How could you say that? How could you
feel that? Since?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
When?
Speaker 3 (14:07):
How long?
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Who was it?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Do I know him?
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Was I in town? No way do I know her?
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Was it my fault? And I miss that? Wait for real?
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (14:18):
What do you mean by that? What's wrong with my tone?
Why am I crying? Why am I crying?
Speaker 1 (14:24):
I have so many questions? I used to love questions.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Questions were my writing problems?
Speaker 1 (14:43):
My muss?
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Sometimes I'll be furious a question like, how dare you
take up so much time and so much of my peace,
so much of my sleep y'all think the muse is romantic.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
She rode as hell, she stone wall you all.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Day, lead text unread, don't even touch the meal you
cooked for and then when you finally get the picture
to get some rest or have the nerve to have
other appointments, all of a sudden she can't keep her
mouth shut. She is the most inconvenient, sneaky link.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
I'm sorry, I need a second.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
You ask how I'm feeling right now, like I want
to be anywhere but here. I feel like I wish
you would stop asking me, like I have to revise
what I think of me, like the mirror been lying
to me for years, like I don't even know me.
I feel like you got some homework to do. I
feel like you could have told me this for free.
I thought we were worth it. You're not happy.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
What is happy?
Speaker 3 (15:38):
I thought we were.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
I'm anna need a sec because what we was is gone.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
A question? Was it ever
