Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, you don't ask your question real.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Let's just keep it real, straight shot with no chasing.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
So I'm gonna get a little bit rougher.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
I'm here for it.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Those who really believe in the American process, all of
us Street Shot, No Chase with Your Girls had some
figure out on the Black Effect Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Network network, Who's having? Everybody has some figure out here
with Marcella's row.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
On Straight Shot, No Chaser the Black Effect Podcast Network.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Happy.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Well, I don't know do you celebrate the fourth? The
fourth is over? But did you celebrate? I know people
were saying happy after Juneteenth and.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Fourth, and so.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Do you do you now that the fourth is over?
We're starting into the new week, I'll ask you do
you celebrate the fourth? Is that or is it just
kind of like, you know, a day you just friends
and family or what is the fourth to you?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Well?
Speaker 4 (00:58):
This year it was a little different, this show was working,
So ain't your chance do anything?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Sometimes?
Speaker 4 (01:05):
You know, I usually do stuff with my friends. I
don't usually be around my family like that.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
So, uh, do you look at.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
The fourth that's Independence Day for America?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Or do you look at it as a day of consciousness?
Because as black people become more conscious, you know, just
like were Thanksgiving growing up, nobody was talking about.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Well, it's really indigenous you know people day and all.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
You know, But I'm noticing on social media it's black
people become more conscious.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
They're like, yeah, forget the fourth, it's really about Juneteenth.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
So I'm just wondering, do you have any of that
type of consciousness in your thoughts with the fourth or
do you celebrate like, Okay, it's still the day of America
found independence, flaws and all.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I never even never really like that. And same, I
ain't never thought of it like that.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
It's just usually, you know what the family is just
cookout and that's it.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
We ain't send around who I'm firm freely get up with.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Yeah, I will say for me the four you know, again,
being a veteran I with America's flaws and all. And
I know people don't want to hear this because they
say this place suck and it's the worst place to
be and that you know, I wouldn't do that, but
for me, I would.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
There's no place I would rather be.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
I am not the ancestors that built this country, that
put their blood, sweat and tears, you.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Know, and I get it.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I know people talking about going to Gona, going here,
going there, and all that, and I'm.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Not against any of that. But I'm not fleeing nowhere.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
I mean, one administration or two which is just doing
what it's always been, is not making me say that
America is the worst place on earth, because it's just not.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
It's just simply not.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Although freedoms are being taken away, although it's being challenged,
although you know, we are up against some things that
we have not seen in our lifetime, and certainly things
that our ancestors have seen and worse by the way,
but what we have not seen in the new modern era. Yeah,
some challenges, but there's still no place that I would
(03:06):
rather be. In some countries, you couldn't even be on
this podcast talking about it, couldn't even criticize.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Now they're trying to take away that.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Too, you know, people who criticize the people who talk
about So I'm not saying we're not going backwards, but
still America, still it's no place I'd rather be. And
that includes meaning, you know, all of the flaws involved.
So I don't sit around the fourth flight saying, oh man,
I just love America.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
You know.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
That's that, ain't it. But I do recognize what it is,
you know what it means. And for me, you know,
it's not a day that I'm just you know, like
I said, I'm not siting around talking about I love
the Actually it's the day my dad passed. So for me,
if anything, it's up day, a morning or reflection on him,
or the whole period from my birthday to July fourth,
(03:53):
for me personally is just a tough season, you know,
because it's the last day I talked to my dad.
It's a day I danced with my dad. When I
got married, it was the whole train, you know. It's
a two three week time where I just you know,
think about all those things and stuff. And for those
who know, you know, it's I won't say it's easier
(04:13):
every year, because grieving is grieving, but like I said,
I'm not. It's I'm thinking of other things, you know,
during that period. So and then now this year with
me studying in my I call it a pre law class,
but it's not pre loss called lawyer fundamentals.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
That family already has us in.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
You and I were talking about it off the air,
but it is a self paced class.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I go to school, Guys, August, what is it?
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Fourth fifth? It's the first day of school in class,
So don't ask me. Is it online like dj MV
Is it online? No, it's not only line, want the
whole line. But they love to won't take away. They
don't want nobody to. Guys, online, you can learn online
as well. Don't let people you know, ship on the
online experience.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
But no, it's not online. It is in class.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
But they did give us a two week course, two
and a half week course to prepare you for what
class would be like. And Marcelle is when I tell
you and guys, this whole tight. We're gonna get to
today's subject, which is about Elon Musk starting his own
political party.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
But you know, y'all know whether I do the morning announcements.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
When I tell you that I am better prepared than
what I would be if I just walked in day one,
I can't stress enough. And guys, if you listen to podcast,
you know I'm taking you on the whole journey with me.
But I am man because I've worked through the turning
crump the last decade.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I'm a Florida Supreme Court mediator. I've been involved in
the law.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
I've represented myself pro se, I've represented others pro se.
It's not that I'm unfamiliar with the law. But that
is not what law school is about.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
It is.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
It is not about that, And most of it is
preparing and synthesizing information and learning new information and where
does it all fit in rules? And if sex exceptions
to the rules, all that stuff. But what this class
really taught me is how important my workspace is. You know,
(06:15):
I'm used to kind of winging in Marcella's and going,
you know, with my master's. I didn't need, you know,
masters and political signs, adult education. I did on my laptop.
I didn't get a desktop. I didn't need a desktop
to me because you just turned in pay pretty much,
you know, turn in pape, tests, whatever. But this man, no,
you need two screens. I got dual screen. At first,
(06:35):
I was like, oh, I gotta buy me another screen.
Then I found this real cute software.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
It's called do at, And I gotta remember to share
the Instagram because if you are a nerd like me,
that duet oh man six dollars a month and I
could just buy me another screen, but I like it.
Because it works wireless, and I probably will eventually just
give me another screen, you know, a couple hundred dollars
or whatever.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
But for now, old man, I love it.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
It allows me to extend my screen and use my
laptop my computer. I got three or fourth windows open
up on my desktop.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
When I was trying to do all.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
That the first week of the class, or the first
four five days of class, Marcella, I was like, this
ain't gonna cut it. It showed me this is not
gonna cut it. You need, arill, that.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
You need to sit up at a desk.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
You need to look at this information in front of you,
my eyes, crossing words, look in the sac you know,
all that type of stuff. So I can't dress enough
that your desktop is important.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Even today, I.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Cleaned off my area around me because it was even
clutter around me, and I was like, let me, you know,
like let me sit out a dests not in the bed,
you know, snacking on chips or you know, you got
the remote turning stuff on, you know, getting distract Just
sitting at the desks for four or five hours straight
makes a hell of a difference.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
And I haven't had to.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Be pushed like that in a long time and not
bringing I'm to say the information comes pretty easy to me,
so I haven't really had to be pushed like that.
This class has pushed me, which I love because I
love being challenged.
Speaker 5 (08:04):
So mm hm yeah, I was I was gonna go
back to uh we were talking about the country and stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
I was gonna say, like, I have a friend like he.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Probably a visit probably every country most and he always
say like, uh, we do stuff different here. You know
other countries, you know, they're they're more lenient. They he thinks,
you know, other countries is better than this country. But
I will say I me personally, I get very frustrated,
(08:44):
you know, with the country, but I would never ever
ever think about another going to another country. And actually
I like the challenge even though I get so frustrated
because I'm struggling, like really really struggling. But I believe
in having challenges. I think it's gonna it's he's gonna
make you or it's gonna break you.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
M M.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
And I just like the challenge. I just feel like,
and I don't know, maybe he's just a man thing.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I need to be a man.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Think I'm found to push the line then you're talking
about it may be gender, but challenge I don't know
what you're talking about. Just say it's hell, it's okay.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Well, I mean it could.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
I mean, we are leading the civil rights fights and
I'm just saying the gender don't really apply. It's okay
to just like we're doing class. It's okay for you
to just own it without it being a gender. And
I say that not being funny, but I want to
take this moment to just.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Do a little tip.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
People love saying, you know why, I'm from Atlanta. You
know that's how we do it in California. Are Yeah,
well I'm from New York or maybe it's a man.
You don't have to hide behind gender, age, location, region, No,
just you I I Marcella's like being challenged. You don't
have to find that out to make and a lot.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Of people do that. You'll notice, well, you know that's
how we do it to New York. Well, no, I
did the same thing. And wherever.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Nothing to do with where I'm the You know there
are some things of a regional age, gender, but you'll
notice people kind of you don't have to hide behind that.
You can stand confidently on I'm Marcellos. I like to
be challenged and leave it at that. You don't have
to find the justification. Well maybe it's a man thing.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
No, just it's a Marcellis thing. That's ownership.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
You know of who we are, what we are, and
whose we are, and that's gonna guide you in your leadership.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Yeah, I argue what you're saying. I didn't mean it
like that.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
That well, it's all it's just a natural thing that
people say.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
People say, so I always trying to correct people like, no,
we don't have nothing to do with being a man. No,
it's you. You're your own individual. It's you say. Oh,
the Lord work in my serious ways. Nothing's mysterious. You wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
It's no seek.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
He knew who you.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Are and what you are and had your life playing
out in explicit detail before you were even a thought.
So if I played out your life before you were
even a thought, what's mysterious about that? Because it's not
revealed to you. So then just ask for I want
revealing more. Showed me, discern teach me, let me be wise,
don't try to put him on mysterious time. He real
(11:23):
clear about it. You want unclear about it? He don't
want in my serious ways. When he doing his work,
he worked.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You understand what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Why people saying I don't think about it like that,
Well that's why I'm here to help me think about
it differently.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Nothing I'm doing.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
I'm not no musician. You think about a I'm saying musician,
But I mean what am I saying?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Yeah, I'm not a musician.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Pulling a rabbit at the hat like, oh surprise, I
didn't notice was coming at the hat.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
No, I knew it was coming out the hat.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I knew it was the rabbit. I'm the one created
the rabbit. I knew the rabbit was the rabbit before
the rabbit new was the rabbit. You just wasn't paying
attention to what was happening. You wasn't paying attention to
what I was doing my hands. You wasn't paying attention
to what was behind my back.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
You wasn't paying attention to what I'm speaking. If it
was God, you ain't paying attention.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
So because you ain't paying attention, you didn't realize the
trick of the devil.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
You didn't realize that I.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Already had this for you. You didn't know, Oh man, I'm
preaching today. You didn't know what was in front of you.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
I got to know. That's a good one.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
I gotta take that Instagram. But you didn't know what
was because you wasn't paying attention. If you go to
any magic show, you know it got to be a
trick somewhere. So we don't need to sit back and say, oh.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well he working in mysterious ways. No, you just don't
have a playbook. But the playbook is available to you, family.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
It actually is available to you if you listen and
pay attention and discern and make your way through and
pay attention.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
To the word.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
If you don't believe the word, and this ain't for it,
but I'm talking about those believe work and even challenge question.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Want to know why the word say what it's saying. Why.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
That's why I talk about Mary Magnin so much. That's
the biggest, one of the biggest inspirations to me. And
there is no book of Mary. So it's not always
who wrote the book, you know, who was the one
that they said was the prophet or the disciple of that.
It is really getting down to finding the stories that
move you, you know, and how he works through those stories.
So there's nothing mysterious about it. It's nothing mysterious about it.
(13:20):
It's not about being a man thing. It's a Marcellus thing.
If he puts something in you to say, I'm gonna
give you the tenacity, the grit, the courage to challenge
the system, the courage to do X y Z, the
courage to say, despite how I felt yesterday, despite how
down I was yesterday, I'm gonna get up in the
(13:41):
morning and I'm gonna do all I can to push
the line. How dare you insult him that way and
put it on a gender, Because there's somebody that don't
take man and woman. That takes a man and woman
of God that have that type of vision, They have
that type of courage, have that type of strength.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
I ain't like them.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Well, I don't never want to be on nothing that's
like them, cause I ain't like that. So that's why
I don't category. That's what people say where you're from,
no where about where I'm from. Don't try to categorize
me on the Midwest, south of the East, of the Whistle,
whatever you think it is.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Don't try to.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Categorize me on whatever gender. Whatever you think I am,
I am who I am. That's why you know when
I say I remain testlim figure, I am stand on
that stand on that. I don't have to hide behind nothing.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
People.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Oh yeah, new York, we don't play that ship. Somebody
slept the shit out of you and say, look, you
stand up like that while you gotta hide behind New York,
hid behind that.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
I that's Atlanta. How you do it? If you don't
have Atlanta, though, what happens to make you comfortable?
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Can go in any state and show up any state.
Drop me in any state and I'm gonna get down.
I don't have to have all the fuzziness around me,
no disrespect. All I need my family. You said it
was just something about it. You said something that I
have to be in the.
Speaker 6 (14:59):
Sa my cousand around, called in my grandma up the street,
and this, Oh, let's do the real challenge.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
You go take your babies and pop, go to New
York and let's see what it does. And you struggling
in Atlanta, Well let's see what to do.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Maybe need to go? I said, well my selves, would
you if you had a different times?
Speaker 3 (15:23):
You said, oh about it, somebody was struggling now like that,
But what you meaning like your question was liteful had
a better job opportunity, would you leave Atlanta?
Speaker 2 (15:39):
And y'all Marcela says no, some of them at the town.
Maybe that's the challenge you talk about.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
I'm gonna look, I'm gonna I know it was gonna
get to me. I know you're gonna get me.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I got to get back to you. That's why you're
to get back to mercy. You got the baes. Guess what.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
And and look, and my son's gonna overcome it in Atlanta.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Overcoming in Atlanta, no matter how many times to take them.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
To be ten years, still overcome. Right.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
I'm just making it home that you you insisted on
overcoming it in atlasta that's probably in a year or
two somewhere else. But I'm just lady. You know what
it is.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
He said he's gonna overcome it if it takes fifty
years or something about it, like something about.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
God, God. I gave him all. I gave my.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yes, indeed you did. Hey, I ain't giving it my off.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Me. I'm going, Hey, they go for mama house, daddy
may it ain't cutting.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
It just ain't damn cut.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
No.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
I love relocating to the Atlanta I'm really sad about it,
but I gotta go lost school. I can't just sit
up well, you know, I'm just really I like, no,
we gotta.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Go get that that other thing.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
And again there's not an HBCU in Atlanta, which I
hope they changed.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
That one day.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
That makes me very sad because if there was AHBC
or you in Atlanta, man, I yeah, yeah, I'll be there.
But you know, black commissioned here brought up. She said,
you know, tell maybe that ain't you.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Maybe you need to be in.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Orlando so you can focus and not distract it, because
Atlanta will distract you. Now you know, I'll be trying
to be outside this not floodying three four five. I
probably would because I'm disciplined. But you know, she made
a good point.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
You know, you maybe you just need to be here,
a place that's quiet.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
You ain't got nothing else going on, so you can
focus on them books.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
You know, go to the beach, unique because that's all
it needs to do. Go to the beach.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
You know, you need to you know, get uh decompressed
and get back in them books. But I'm pretty much
like that anyway, mysel's but it still was a balid point,
you know, to make that out. Here's you everywhere he
wants you to be, you know, for the time.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
It's it with me and learner for most people that
don't know most people don't know about unions and you know,
all that type of stuff.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Well, I wouldn't even say Atlanta, George.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
It's not They're not really heavy on on unions down here.
And I like talking to my coworkers, getting them, you know,
used to union stuff and you know, trying to get
them involved and stuff like that. Don't always work, you
know what I'm saying, But they have one or two people.
To me, that's that's a big accomplishment to me.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, use accomplishment and shout out to I don't know
if you saw I was shared on my Instagram a
couple of times this week.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
And again guys.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
The class that I'm teaching on, when is it July
nineteen July nineteen two pm.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
We're gonna do it.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Five people in the class, twenty people in class and
moving on. But it is about traditional and non traditional coalitions,
and I cannot stress enough I'm using it as an example.
I'm gonna pull it up or mind me, I'm gonna
pull up in the class to watch to watch her.
You know what she had to say about unions. Don't
call me white White girl podcast. You know again the
comedian using foul lang. We're saying all types of stuff whatever.
(19:10):
But she's advocating for the unions. And this is a
perfect example. You know, she has five six hundred thousand followers,
a perfect example of how you can utilize non traditional
coalitions to get your message out. I assure you that
whatever what she said landed went further in Philly than
(19:30):
any so called organization ain't LACP, you know, chamber whatever,
no disrespect, but went further than what they could do.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
It's not that what they did not.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Do is important, because what they do is important. But
one of the main components to change is who are
you bringing new in the fault? If I just tea
like you just said, the union, I ain't one or
two people make a difference one or two the new
people into the fault. That's how you expand. How do
you expand if every time you get up and do
it speech, you're talking to the same people. Now, some
(20:02):
people like like preaching their on choir. They like, I'm
just gonna get up every Sunday and I don't never
want no new membership. The church can't grow if there's
not new people coming to the flock. Your message should
be powerful enough that somebody coming to the flock. If
you go to a church and then every Sunday, don't
nobody join, nobody ever want to join. They just show up,
(20:23):
and nobody ever say hey, I want to be a
part of this, There's something's wrong with the message. If
you're only preaching to the same choir and the same people. Somebody,
somebody should be touched conflicted enough, because joining the church
is supposed to prick your conscience, to conflict you to
say I want to get right. I need to be right,
I need to be among the saints, I need to
(20:45):
connect to something. I don't want to be out here
along if nothing is making you say hey, I want
to be a part of this every single Sunday, month
after month after month after month, and nobody join it. No,
we got to reevaluate who's what they talk about. So
the same thing applies to politics. You should be bringing
in new people. Some gonna fall off, like you said,
(21:06):
some may stick with it, some may not stick with
But can you get them to listen.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Can you lead? Just do they want to hear? And
if they don't, I move on.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
I get the next one. I get the next one.
I get the next one. That is the change. That's
how you change. It ain't about sitting up talking like
I have to tell somebody on the community, which I
appreciate whoever that is community culture that's always responding because.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
He r she.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
I don't know if z R she is really only
one to use that folks that dashboard, which I love.
But I still got to challenge the person to say,
you wrote see something twenty three.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Words about somebody else. You know what, don't worry about
what they're doing.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
It's forty three million people, y'all in black people in America,
there are more than Do you think I'm going after
forty three million? No, Marcella, you want to know drip,
y'r time trying to go after fourty three million, which
is what I want to talk about about.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Elon Musk quickly created a new party.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
I'm gonna tie this into it, he wrote on He's
launching a new US political party. He said the party
is gonna be called the American Party, which will focus
on just two to three Senate seats and eight to
ten house districts. Of course, Musk is the world's richest man,
so his involvement in politics will be decisive. A lot
of people say, you know, that's why we need our
own party. That's why we need our own party. No, guys,
(22:20):
Black people are in a state of emergency like never before,
meaning our local community is what you need to focus on.
If I'm sitting up here talking about what Marcell's doing
in his house, what time marselles gonna wash the dishes,
what time is he gonna clean up?
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Did he make his bed today?
Speaker 3 (22:36):
That is the equivalent of spending all your time focused
on the federal level. Yes, you need to focus on
the federal level. But focused and being distracted and totally
engulfed in the federal level without paying attention to local
estate level is a problem. It's a problem because we
need a media change, a media resources, and we need
to know where to go find it. Right now, they
(22:57):
said that Trump after this hurricane season is fading phasing
out FEMA, fading phasing out FEMA.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Now, I don't know what that means. I don't know
if they'll push back on it.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I'm sure they will constitutional all of that, but let's
just act like it happened.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Let's just un of it if it actually happened. If
you know, a trade, a rapper trade, a trade of truth.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
He does a lot of hurricane relief in Texas, a
lot of in all of the country, but a lot
in Texas.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
So if you if Texas.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Has a hurricane right now, which they just have massive flooding,
dozens of people got killed over this weekend.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Where is the trades?
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Because let's just imagine that FEMA no longer exists, so
we're not, like what I say on Revolt secure, what
what was the third thing?
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Secure? Our nonprofits?
Speaker 3 (23:42):
If we're not taking care of trade of truth in
his organization, then ain't nobody coming to the hood because
we already have as can depend on FEMA. So if
they phase out a little bit, we was getting who
gonna make up the difference? So do you think we
got time to be talking about people in Texas? Need
to be talking about what Trump doing or you need
to be talking about what Texas is doing? Yeah, and
where are the resources that Texas got? We don't have
(24:06):
the bandwidth to be talking about. But I need everybody
to bunker down and make sure your house is in order,
and your house means the local and the state. And
when I get back to Orlando, y'all gonna get to
see in real time what it means. Because a lot
of the things I've been talking about is what I
did in the past, because I've lived between multiple states Houston, La, Oklahoma, Atlanta,
(24:32):
and I did not plant that plant my hands in
anything local because I knew all of those places I
wasn't gonna be in, you know, forever. I planned on
to do it in Atlanta, but then I got as
set the law school, and you know that changed all that.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
But in Orlando, you will see.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
You're gonna get to see what local get out mean
for real, for real, and you know that's all part
of the God's divine plan.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I got accepted in Southern I got to set it
the fan you it's born in Orlando.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
But one thing for show my politics gain, Oh baby, yeah,
we did. You know real examples where I can say, no,
we did this last week. We did that last week.
When you look at Tas Oklahoma, the entire state, every county,
voat's Republican. Look at what they're doing in Tas Oklahoma.
Black mayor just passed a huge to repair the descendants
(25:18):
their former reparations to the descendants of Black Wall Street
to make sure that they're restoring them with housing, jobs, trantation,
all those things. This is what you do at a
local level. Make sure your local town, your local city's
taking care. And that's actually precedents that you can use
for state law, federal law, and so forth. But if
you don't, never use it for the federal you know
(25:40):
your home is straight. And right now, I need everybody
looking outside their doorstep.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Right now.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
The biggest law, the Medicaid, just got gutted. It was
intentional to go back and take away Obamacare.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
So if you're not paying attention to what's happening in
your state and.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Nothing else, you need to know where these other non
profit organizations that might be able to have some type
of supplement.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
But guess what, they not gonna have something.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
It's either because they taking that all the way.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
So you need to know where you need to go
right now to get in line.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Don't wait until twenty thirty when it started catching up,
because that's how long they say it's gonna catch up.
You better be knowing right now. You better be going
getting all your tests done right now. You better you
know what I'm saying. This is about preparing.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Go get all your shit and get whatever it is
you need, if.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
It's ditcher's eyeglasses, cancer colon screening, all of that so
that you can have an understanding if you need to
be in line for something. Don't wait till the line is,
you know, fifty blocks down to be saying, oh man,
I didn't know.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Same thing with rental assistant program.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
If they pass all of that into twenty five, you're
gonna be looking crazy as hell.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Start getting your plan. Now, what are you doing now?
Speaker 3 (26:55):
I have rent houses that use relatists. Hey, I want
I hope that. Hey, I've been telling y'all got other programs,
y'all been start looking into other programs because I can't
go in debt either. That's the part they don't understand, like,
I can't just keep spending, spending, spinning it get them.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Okay that means what that means I'm gonna do sell
the house now. The next land lord ain't going off
for no rental assistant. You either got it or you don't.
You see what I'm saying. These are the kind of things.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Guys, I can't stress preparation enough. I know y'all saying,
damn she all she talking about is training. All she
talking about on IG is training. All she talking about
the podcast You're training Marcelle's. It is an urgency with me.
It is an urgency with me.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
You know.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Somebody said other thing, Oh yeah, let's get back talking
about the topic. No, we ain't got to get back
to to take your ass on. I'm talking need to prepare,
And I can't change everybody. I'm only talking to those
of y'all that really rock with me, that.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Really follow me.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
They've really been listening to what I'm talking about. I
need you to prepare. It is not a scare tactic,
but it is a scare tactic. I'm trying to scare
your ass straight. So so when they say I'm fear mongering,
you damn right, Yeah, you damn right. I'm fear mongering.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Not where I want you.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Anxious to the department you can't sleep at night. But
I do want you to prepare, because preparation is the key.
Like I said, I was nervous, Damn law school gonna
be like this. I don't take none of this for granted,
even though turning crub up. Everybody believing me, Oh yeah,
you're gonna be fine. Oh yeah, you're gonna be fine.
You Oh you already you think.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
I'm believing that? Hell no, take me up enough, you know,
to say no, I ain't got it. Let me read
this all and over and over.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
No, I don't think I got it.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
No, I'm sorry, I still ain't got it. Let me
take this quizz I'm looking for quiz. Let me find
this que Let me make sure do I got it?
Because it don't feel like I got it?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Let me keep till I got it. You know what
I mean.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
You need to be anxious enough to motivate your pass
being prepared, yep, because anybody think they got it don't
got it, and they'll apply across the board.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Relationships you think you got Oh yeah, girl, I got them.
He ain't going nowhere.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Oh okay, Oh yeah, she ain't going nowhere. Oh yeah, okay,
let's see. Keep the bullshit up and we gonna see.
You gotta start preparing now, guys. And that's all the
type of time I'm own. And if you don't want
that type of time, then I just ain't got nothing
for you. Every podcast gonna lead back to training. Every
training gonna be talking about training, the trainings in the
training gonna be talking about training. Yeah, training, Everything I
(29:14):
learned gonna be about training.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
You know, everything. I'm trying to get quickly.
Speaker 7 (29:18):
With as much information as possible. You had some things,
and then we're gonna get out of here.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
I want to say when I was when I was
speaking about unions I've learned.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
For the y'all who don't know.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
The first time I was trying to get my friends
and stuff for the ten test class, I was crashing
out relaxed.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
So this time I kind of I know what they expect.
It's really good.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
Gonna be about you because it's like it's like talking
to the grade.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
It is.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
It's literally walking to the brain.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
And you have to be fearless enough to go to
the cemetery at midnight when ain't nobody and talk to
the grave.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
That's what this work is about, talking to the grave.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Yeah, he's literally talking to the break and repeating it
over them and over said, I can't believe I'm talking
to this grave.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
I can't believe I'm talking. And you gotta keep you
on it.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
Because at some point the rapts. You're gonna get somebody up,
at some point, somebody. You gotta just keep on checking
the pose. I just want to make sure. I know,
I know they say Lazarus is dead, but I just
want to check just one more time. I'm just gonna
walk past him, just one more time. Let me just
go by and just one more time.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
That's a good analyogy.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Just it right now, that's all it is.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
And if you don't want to do that, then this
ain't what this work is. If you think, if you
don't think, if you think that, it's always gonna be
about the person that's clean and standing up.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
And I ain't never died. They don't have no stitch
on them. Everything all is well. That's why they got their.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Ass handed to them. See, they been too busy talking
to thelive. See I'm talking to the dead until the dead,
Till the dead get up and rise, till you let
the dead know that everything on you, that stink, everything
on you that they said wasn't worth it. I know
you decomposed. I know you don't have much to offer.
I know your posts they been there. I know they
(31:26):
counted you out. I know they said you was brain dead.
I know they said pull the plug. I know they
said it was all over until you start speaking like that,
until you able to speak like that and get and
say no.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I know you on the cross, I know they killed you.
I saw them on too out. But I'm a wait
by the tomb. That's what this work is about. So
if you looking for something, this ain't for you. That's
why I'm quick to run you out the game. Man,
this ain't for you. Oh why are you doing that?
Speaker 3 (31:51):
No?
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Because I know what it takes.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
That's why I ain't trying to talk to forty six
million people trying to talk to.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Just three hundred. That's it, if Gideon. If Gideon was
able to conquer with three hundred, then so can I.
That's it. I just need three hundred Marsellers.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
I just need three hundred Christie, three hundred genus, three
hundred meter three of that's it. Yeah, that's it, yep,
because that's all I Hey, all I got to do
is say I did my bets. I did my bet
like we say in the military, Tell my mom, I
did my best. Put a star on my chest.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
That's it. That's how I live. Hey, when you bury me.
That's it. Hey, she did her bets. That's all I
can account for.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Rest of y'all can keep up to what everybody else
doing and why they ain't did it and why this
ain't did it, and what they need to be and
they needed.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
I only account for what I'm doing. That's it. That's
I only got one charge.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
What you're doing? Tell them all the rest of what
y'all talking about it, I ain't got that. I ain't
on that type of time. They say, Hey, I talked
to five people this week with the union. I know
they ain't gonna do shit, but I talked about check.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Hey you supposed to do. That's all I can do.
Be done. It's now. I'm moving on.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
And it's just like what you said. Even with reunion,
it's gonna sound crazy. It all nowhere. Even with the union,
it's still about me. I ain't no, we ain't.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
You know they come along.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
This is about what you have been called to do,
remaining obedient to your call. You and if you don't
like you type talk time talk I ain't the one
for you because I'm gonna keep directing it back to you.
If you want to talk about everybody else, go on, Instagram,
going to the space go on YouTube where they make
one hundred thousand dollars off y'all all year talking about
(33:31):
everybody else.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Here is about you. I'm a true veteran, a true
military veteran. It was truly about you.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
Yes, we've had we had a flight, you know, air
Force flight, you know, all of us together.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Yes, but no, I.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Had to hit the marks. I had to do the
push ups, I had to do the running. I had
to pass the test. It was about me, and if
you don't pass it, we're sitting your ass home. Even
though we are part of a military, of a bigger group.
It was never about well what about they passed?
Speaker 2 (34:01):
It? Ain't they good enough? No, you have to do.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
You gotta hit the same marks. And if you don't
want any the same mark, go home. Because if you're
not doing your part, what good are you in the arden?
You're no good, You're wasted space. That's why y'all don't
like my type of training, because I don't make your
ass to do. What are the things you're supposed to do?
You think you're gonna come to the army talk about
(34:24):
what everybody else ain't doing. No, you gotta go home. Baby,
you gotta pass that physical detestion just like everybody else.
You gotta pass it, just like everybody else. In law school,
they grade on a curve, meaning, yes, there's a standard
that we set. Meaning if nobody in the class understood
what this particular rule was and the professor promptly failed.
(34:46):
But if the majority understood what the rule was, and
you still don't understand what the rule is, that even
further highlights No, it's you, marcellus.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Everybody else got it. So what did they do that
you didn't do? Oh? They fair to be breaking grade.
I'm the curve. Why you don't want to have to
be competitive. You don't have to shut up now. Personally,
I don't like it. I like my own grave and
my own that.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
But a lot of people who don't do their part,
that's why they I don't like group projects because I
want to be held my own you know, think. But
in a group project, you still got to do your
individual and the whole.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
And that's what organizing is about individual and the whole.
And if you about you.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
And you're self interested in all ways, Hey I'm worried
about me, I can't worry about it, then this ain't
for you not organizing it is now you're a great podcaster.
I know plenty millionaires that say, oh yeah, they better
than me, because I wouldn't be doing dah da da dah.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
I wouldn't be doing that. I would just be making money. Well,
that's to do.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
That's why you're in the podcast and why I do
what I do. That's why you're rich, and why I'm
poor or middle class, I would say, because I ain't
motivated by that. And if the Lord give me more, great,
but that's not what keep me up at night, and
don't keep me up at night worried about it. I mean,
of course I got worry my my bills and all that,
but I'm truly concerned. You know, maybe y'all don't like
(36:11):
mister Earle and Miss Lucille and all of that. You
don't give a shit about they medicaid, but I actually do.
So I can sit here and get rich on a
podcast with clicks and views and YouTube and sensationalism and
sex and gossip and relationships and fifty to fifty and
all that shit, or I can worry about mister Earl.
(36:32):
I think I'm gonna go ahad and worry about mister earl,
and all I ask, Lord, can you just make sure
I got enough to provide? That's it you and just
just let me provide. I don't thank you for taking
away anything that makes me want to be super rich,
because if that's the case, I wouldn't be doing none
of this.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I just ask that you just provide.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
And if you make me rich and wealthy, greade, you
know what I'm gonna do with the money, I'm gonna
give it away. But if you never do, just at
least keep in my same mind so I can provide
to continue to do your will.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
And that's what this work is about. Amen, work is about. Amen.
All right, y'all, Well that was today's episode.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
Make sure you tap back in and we'll get with
you another time again. Register of the class ten dollars
off if you use a qpon let's go L E
T S G O. Let's go, and we're going on
with the class and ourselves.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
We're going on. We got a nice group of others
signed up, but it's not as many of us in
the first class, and that's fine.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
But actually people have been going back and ordering the
first class, so you can go back and watch the
course one, were moving on with course two, of course three,
course for five all of that, then the once in
my webinars where people really want to hear from me
with different you know, specialty type stuff. And then after
that were rolling out me doing pop ups, you know,
in person pop ups. So first nine months of school
(37:46):
is about school. So I continue to you know, the
one webinar and all that. If I can get a
pop up in before the end of the year, that'd
be great, but I doubt it. But in the spring
and summer when stuff slow down, I should be able
to do that, you know, fairly easy. So the virtual is,
you know, an opportunity to get get us on board
and get us where we need to be, and we'll
have all five of those done by the end of
the year.
Speaker 2 (38:06):
So that's my goal.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
All right, guys, make sure you subscribe like share, ask
ten people to join us in the journey. One of
us a quote I think Steve Jobs said, it's the
reward is in the journey. It's not always in the end,
it's in the journey that is the reward. A lot
of people my friend was like, oh, yeah, you know,
you studying a lot and the rewards are coming and
(38:30):
I was like, it's not about the room being rewarded now,
And I learned today that there is an actual quote
that the reward is in the journey. So I'm glad
to know that my mindset thinks like leaders who they
say are leaders, even though I'm not as rich as
each jobs. But I always say all the time, it's
the process, you know, Embrace the process. Don't worry about
always doing something to get something at the end. You know, Oh,
(38:50):
I'm I'm blessed because I'm gonna get it in the end.
My blessing don't come back to me. You can't negotiate
with God in that way. You need to be going
because it needs to be done.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
Trick the system. So yeah, next time, peace peace.
