Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yea from.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
You don't want to.

Speaker 1 (00:08):
I don't want to ask your question real.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Let's just keep it real, straight shot with no chasing.
I'm gonna get a little bit rougher.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
Wait, I'm here for it. Those who really believed in
the American process, all of us street shot, no chase
with your girl Tesstom figure out on the Black Effect
Podcast Network network was having everybody Tendom figure straight shot,
no chaser on the Black Effect Podcast Network.

Speaker 4 (00:31):
iHeart radio, man, this is a Miles Stone. We're going
into a new season my seasons. So do you guys
know forty eight episodes, which is one year at a time.
Season five, so this is the close of season five
going into season two. Season six, I guess will be
the next number after five. So I am very very

(00:53):
excited once again for you know, being renewed with Black
Effect Podcast Network this season. He in like, every season's
very important to me. But I do have to be
crystal clear and say that right now more than ever.
But I know we keep saying more than ever, but
they keep saying every time that right now more more
than ever. And I guess that would be that the

(01:15):
States could get keep getting higher because every time I've
said more than ever, I more than ever, something is important.
I have absolutely mean it. But I think I've said
it so much, you know that it just keeps seeming
to be the more than ever, more than ever.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
So.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
But but right now I'm pretty certain Jada Marcella's welcome
to the show. I'm pretty certain that now, more than ever,
black voices they're important. The Trump campaign, Trump administration is
very different than the first. Some things are the same,
some things are different. He knows the ropes now, he
knows how to get things done. He's already whipped his

(01:52):
what they call whipped, you know, into shape. They already know.
Don't play games. He not come to play no games.
They are ready know. You know that he said he's
basically on a revenge tour. So he did not do
this the first time. You know what going in in
two hundred plus executive orders.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
You know day one.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
He won this campaign based on day one. And he's
absolutely doing day one activities. Now yep, not all of them,
you know, because all of them are not Day one things.
But bottom line is he's signing stuff left and right,
and it has been absolute confusion, chaos online with just

(02:31):
trying to keep up with what all is happening. So
much is happening that you just cannot pay attention to
it all, even for us that literally processes hundreds of content.
And I don't I think, Jay, I think with this
all the time, but I gotta keep stressing it. When
we say process, in twelve days, we process one hundred

(02:56):
and fifteen stories. The process one hundred and fifteen stories,
several hundred stories were looked at.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
That's what people are not understanding.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah, so on a daily basis, dozens and dozens and
dozens to the point where they start looking alike. You're
trying to decipher breaking versus follow up stories, trying to
keep an eye and it's just us, you know, And
so we put a tremendous amount of time in this.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Guys.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
I'm appreciative for Jada Marcellus who have not only supported
me here but on other projects. This is not I'm
truly My business is a small business. We do not
have fifteen twenty people like at CNN, which by the way,
they just let go hundreds of people. By the way,
but we're not a large news desk. If you will,

(03:45):
then Jade calls us news. That's we're not a ba
a mighty news. It's mighty so mighty news that's in
the way in every way. So I want to talk
about these tariffs. I want to talk about these tariffs
because and I'm going to keep talking about these tariffs
as it happens in real time Mexico, Canada, and China.

(04:05):
To make it simple for everybody, We're gonna raise the
price bottom line, he said, we're gonna raise the price.
Y'all gotta pay with y'all. Wait, I'm paraphrasing so that
you can get it now. Republicans Trump say, this is fine.
This is gonna help out long term. People know that
it's gonna be a slight bumping the road as they
call it, and down the road. It's all gonna weigh

(04:27):
itself out.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
Well, I guess we're gonna see. We're gonna see who
survives bumping the road. We're gonna see this same country
that was talking about the price of eggs. We're gonna
see how it all falls out. So I want to
just name a couple of things that the terriffs will affect.
This is not about being a Democrat shield. This is
not about scare tactics. This is not about oh, you

(04:52):
just saying it to be saying it. No, this is
about the price of anything that goes up. If you
charge the supply more, that cost goes on to the consumers.
That's not a hard math. It's not hard if by
that's an adult game. If you're selling dope, you're selling cocaine,
the crack gonna go up. If I charge more for
the oka, it's gonna be more of the crack on

(05:13):
the street. They have to use that analogy. But I
gotta make it real, plane, this is basic at the commis, guys.
This is not about oh no, they just saying it,
oh no, just because Trump say oh no, it's gonna
be fine. Yeah, it's gonna be fining him because him.
He is not gonna make a difference with three dollars,
five dollars, a twenty dollars, you know, a difference. It's
not gonna make a difference with him. But this is
a real thing. And you guys can keep saying, oh,

(05:36):
white people gonna fuck around and find out, they're gonna
fuck around and find out. Well, we're gonna be finding
out too. Everybody's gonna be finding out. Even if you
didn't fuck around. So let's let me go through a
few of these things that are facts. He increased the tariffs.
Let's be clear. He's done this citing a national emergency
on the flow of fitting on undocumented immigrants, but also

(05:58):
on a TERRFF. It includes a twenty five percent duty
on all imports from Mexico and most goods from Canada
twenty five percent. Twenty five percent. Now, where do you
get It's a lot, It's a whole lot. Yeah, A tip,
A tip in a restaurant is twenty percent. Just think
about how many of y'all tip twenty percent if you

(06:21):
don't have it ten at Marcella's ten at best, five
at best.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
You know what, I'm just saying, most average street.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
But you don't have a I don't have an You
gotta have a thick about you got a really, really
good service to get twenty percent. I just want people
to think about this in a direct you know, in
a in a practical way, a very practical way. How
many of you tip twenty five percent?

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Nah, I don't tip twenty five percent. On average, about
eighteen percent. And if I really don't have if it's
not within my budget, God bless you. Thank you for
the service. You'll get about ten or fifteen percent yeah
at best, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:58):
But twenty five percent on goods. I'm using that as
a very practical you know, if you if you were
going to dinner and I give a good tip and
I got the extra if I try, if I can
try to give at least ten dollars, that made follow
on the percentage or not shot know, decent. I took

(07:20):
mysellers to dinner last week. You know, marcellers definitely show
up for the food and beverages. I took him to dinner.
I'm sure I'll probably gave. Yeah, I'm sure I probably gave.
He said he didn't eat capfish, but I can't tell
because he ate the whole plate. But I probably gave
eighteen percent at a popados. You know, that's a decent thing.

(07:42):
But we took it out on the back end on
the way out because me and Marcella's filled up our
pockets with about a.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Put I took the mat at least.

Speaker 4 (07:52):
One hundred at best, not two or three. At least hundreds,
So think about that. And I'm not joking. I got
a purse full of mints.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
Like, hey, I need this. I be driving to get minuts.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
He didn't want to give to be driving the little
customers he use pop of those mints. Let's just say,
you got to make this personal. Little people to understand
like what this means, right, right, So even if I
gave a twenty percent till, Marcella's took it on the
back end at ten percent, and I did too, because
I get I love Papato, I got a purse full

(08:27):
of mints.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
I'm not joking.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
Twenty five minutes minimum don't change. So I'm saying that
to say, is that cost has to get transferred somewhere.
You know, if I take one hundred and fifty minutes,
they still got to buy new mints, more mints, don't
they Like, somebody got to make up the difference. So
sit up here and say, oh, it's just a scare tactic.

(08:50):
Oh that's a Democrat shield. Oh don't worry about it.
Oh that's ridiculous. Let's go through what it actually means
and guess what.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
There's not a different price.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
The catfish meal was the same price for marcellas the
black man as it was for the white man.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
Same price.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
But guess what the black people that was serving us,
what tip. Do you think they're going to get from
the demographic that may not have it, the demographic from
the wealth gap? You know, the let's just loose this
in real I'm loving this analogy, so I'm just trying
to try to get a lot out of it. Yeah,
the income gap, what wealth gap is too big between

(09:29):
white people, meaning they got even if they're poor, they
got more than us. A poor man is in a
better position than a poor black man. So that black
waiter that we want to hook up and brother, I
want to help you if I don't give it to
even if you gave your service, I don't give it
you just cause habit. That's because it's not that I
don't want to give it to you. I literally don't
have it. So when it comes down to tipping, and they,

(09:52):
you know, say black people don't tip, well, some of these.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Literally don't have it.

Speaker 4 (09:56):
So how does that black man that served us, that
was literally our service and you want to look out
for him, now, how does that affect him and his income?
Is a trickle down effect. Somebody got to eat that
twenty five percent up and that's what people That's what's
really upsetting me because a lot of people are entrepreneurs

(10:17):
who get their money online who whatever it may not
affect them, you know, as it is the average everyday,
you know worker. So I'm gonna go through these things.
Food Mexico and Canada one of the largest suppliers of
fruit and vegetables to the US, largest supplier. If y'all

(10:38):
were some of the price of.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
Eggs, Listen, the price of eggs is still going up,
by the.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
Way, right, still going up.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
So now fruit, which is already expensive depending on you know,
where you get your fruit, the quality of the fruit.
What about vegetables. Don't you need vegetables. They also said
they leading exports of grain, lifestyle meats, and poultry. So
you think it was hot doing COVID what you think
is about to be now you know they was doing
price gallging with inflation. Members come to saying, oh, you

(11:08):
know that inflation. Some people are just like, you know inflation.
You know inflation, I gotta go up because of inflation.
They're gonna do a lot of price galging. And I
just don't think this is the administration that's gonna protect
the small consumer.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
I agree, very yeah, interesting, yeah, I see that last
year in the US imported forty six billion dollars in
agricultural products from Mexico. Right then, that includes eight point
three billion dollars worth of vegetables and five point nine
billion dollars worth of beer. You underscore that, right, So
folks are going out happy hour ordering beers, pastes of

(11:42):
beers for the football game and all that other stuff.
Those things are going up too.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
Going up too.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Now.

Speaker 4 (11:47):
They said that alcohol is one of the recession free things,
meaning people buy it anyway, which is true. But again, yeah,
if you're spending more on beer, that's taking money from
something else. It got to balance out at the end
of the day. So I'm very concerned about fruit and vegetables, meat, poultry,

(12:07):
all of that. Well, you've got a small kid, I
can pass on fruit. But if you got a small union,
you know that you want to make sure getting a
balanced meal. We already don't get a balanced meal in
the black community, like you talk about this. That's why
we got food deserts, kids on McDonald's, all of that
type of stuff. So if you if you have a
limited budget and you're trying to provide your children with

(12:27):
a balanced meal, this affects you. We got to be
real about, like what this is fueling energy. Ninety seven
billion of oil and gas came from Canada last year.
Canada's our closest alloy, by the way, allegedly, And this
is how they getting treated the country's top export to
the US. They said this, the energy's going up ten percent,

(12:50):
but it's still gonna make a difference on oil and gas. Yeah,
it says Canadian oil a ship to the mill west.
Let's name the state Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan.
Who cannot afford nothing going up? According to the three
in the black people that live below the poverty line, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska,

(13:15):
North North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania. Remember Pennsylvania, y'all was a
swing state. South Dakota, Wisconsin. Remember Wisconsin, y'all's swing state.
Remember Michigan, y'all's a swing state. But along the states
that y'all vote is gonna still feel the same pain.
All of these states had about three dollars a gallon
of gas that will not last. So now we're going

(13:37):
back up to COVID type five dollars, six dollars cars
and car parts. This is a big one, guys, and
people just think, oh, I ain't buying no new car.
It's not just about car, the new car. It's also
about car parts. So when you go get your car fixed,
did you know that sixty four billion worth of vehicle
parts come from Mexico?

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Interesting? I did not know that.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
So who's gonna make up the difference?

Speaker 4 (13:58):
It says Motive vehicles were also the second largest good
the US imported from Canada a total of thirty four billion.
Raised their price. They gotta raise our price, they said,
they'll be moving plant. This is gonna hurt Michigan for sure. Detroit,
for sure. Detroit just halfways started getting back on their
feet from the GM stuff that happened. Was that almost

(14:22):
eight nine years ago in twenty sixteen, when I was
organized a Bernie Sanders, Detroit looked like a ghost town
from GM shutting down or going at the strike and
whatever was happening at that particular time. They literally the
auto again, Auto workers Michigan. They live on this. Everybody's

(14:43):
not gonna be big. And the white man, what are
you talking about to do? What start making cars?

Speaker 2 (14:49):
Right?

Speaker 1 (14:50):
Talking crazy? I'm sorry, I'm laughing because they sounds funny.

Speaker 4 (14:56):
It sounds funny but when you be in that world
and you hear a lot and you I can see
how people get because that's all you're hearing. Yeah, let's
we gotta do for sale, we gotta do for self,
we gotta we gotta this. Like that sound good? You know, Jay,
you've been a part of that world. Like it's like, yeah,
that's right, that's right, brother, so and so. But then
when you ask me.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Self determination is very important. Yet we want to do
for self and build our own industries and the reality
is we don't have industries at the same level, like at.

Speaker 4 (15:25):
The level of we're not building on the resources, we're
not building no buicks. Ye up, Like this just talking crazy,
Like at this point, this is just pipe dreaming talking.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
I'm not saying nothing is possible.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
But come on, y'all, this is keep This is literally
you can't avoid the government.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
We're in America, guys.

Speaker 4 (15:46):
This idea of we're gonna have our own little corner
over here in the corner, and.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
We're gonna have our own banks without the Department of Treasury.
You know, we're gonna be.

Speaker 4 (15:53):
Able to run our own stuff, and we're gonna have
our own government and our own and it Okay, that
sounds good, but the reality is, come on, guys, knock
it off.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
Knock it off.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
Yeah, and we don't have that right now. We definitely
don't have that right now. And then also we're not
immune the feeling that the effects of these terraffs because
the prices are going up, period, and the economy is
going to do what it does and what they say,
when the white man gets the cough, the black man

(16:24):
catches the flu or something like that, we're gonna feel
these effects first and the harshest because of you know,
the money, the disparity with the racial wealth.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Guy, Right, but I don't have America. You don't even
have to be saying we're gonna have it right now. Jay, Again,
the Muslim community takes care of the music communion. I
think it's very respectful. I like how they, you know,
feed themselves, their own programs, their own jobs, their own this,
their own net. But even if they sell in the
final call, you still got to buy paper from the
white man, y'all not over there making y'all own paper,

(16:58):
you know, cut down trees and in the a paper industry.
At the end of the day, something want to be
connected to something else. And what's being sold on people
on their mind is their desires to want that and
still not understanding we still have to operate within America.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
This is America. They run this, Yeah they do.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
You better know it.

Speaker 4 (17:21):
So you still need paper for the final call. You
can buy your own building, you can buy your own land.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
It's still they land. They got to sell it to us.

Speaker 1 (17:32):
And we got to pay taxes on that land.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
Right, So let's stop at you have your own schools,
still got to get approval of You wanted to be
an accredited school, you wanted to count. I mean, so
nobody's saying self determination does not mean no involvement at
all with the government. Just don't work that way. So
that self determination podcast talk is to me, what is

(17:59):
misle on what's actually about to happen. I'm all about
self certaination. I've been at seven floor for seventeen years.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
I'm with it.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah, But all of these things work together.

Speaker 4 (18:18):
One of the biggest things you know that comes from Canada,
Mexico steel third largest important of steel to the United States.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
You don't think that's gonna make a difference, make a
big difference.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
A huge difference. I mean, building our houses. We're talking
about infrastructure, right, trying to make sure things are stirty.
Bridging is like everything, the price of everything is gonna
go up, and just general materials, right and basically everything.

Speaker 4 (18:49):
And the answer is not we need to make our
own steal. We don't have our own steel, guys. I
guess we could, but that's not what we're doing. So
that's not that the beer and alcohol we talked about
that and this ain't nothing to mean me cooning and
scared talk. Most of the people that be talking showed
me where they provided any of these industry things, any

(19:10):
of these essentials in mass and if they did and
they bought a product and put a label on.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
It, they bought that from somebody else, y'all. Do know
I can do that? Like I can get a cosmated
white labeling.

Speaker 4 (19:23):
Yeah, you know, I can get a lift glass line
right now, just pick out act like I'm doing the colors,
do whatever, put a label on it and that's it. Yeah,
called white labeling, right the white man still somewhere in
the process, nothing wrong would happen. Your own so you
can have a higher profit share, you know, so you

(19:43):
can have your name, your brand. I'm not mad at
any of that. But let's stop the delusion. That's what
I'm saying, the delusion that the government just is not
involved in anything. Again, we talked about alcohol, five point
six billion of beer imported, four point eight one billion
of alcohol for Mexico tequila. Going up, home construction, you

(20:05):
talk about that softwood lumber, things that people don't think about.
You know that you need for actually build a house, framing, roofing.
Right now, I'd got hell damage on both my rent houses.
Insurance companies, you know, they don't never give you what
you need. Twenty five thousand dollars worth of repair. Oh,
here go seven thousand. So the rest of them it's

(20:25):
on me. Oh no, yeah, because you got to take
into account appreciation all that insurance. It's not about one
hundred percent getting you even it's a replacement, cause insurance
don't work that way. Don't work their way on cars
or anything else. Insurance just about getting you a little
bit closer to where you were.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (20:42):
So when this goes up, it's fifteen thousand dollars of fixing. Now,
guess what it's gonna be with this terraff because you
know the roof are gonna say, well, you know now
because of that, because of the terrafs, because some of
them gonna be lying and capping, yep, like they did
with the price gal that the Bide administration did put
some in place of price gathering. We're gonna see if

(21:04):
trumpet them do that. Seventy percent of the four hundred
and fifty fifty six million of line came from Mexico.
Electronic toys and application. This is definitely where it's gonna
hit everybody. TVs, laptops, video game consoles, monitors, what that means,

(21:25):
iPhones going on, mac computers, your little androids, all of
that baby, your little android name what don't come from China?
Think about the toys made in China? People that got
toy kids. What about shoes? This was a staggering number.

(21:46):
Ninety nine percent of shoes sold in the United States
are imported. We got to make our own shoe. Well
right now, we ain't making our own shoes, right, Dues,
And I can go do that too, you know, you
can do that white label and go back get your
own shoe. Pick a sole pick of this, pick of that,

(22:07):
Oh it's my shoes. You still somebody involved with actually
the actual factory, same thing like I would get a wine.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
If I had to get something to say, I would
give me a mascottup. Looked into that. But you still
got to use their winery, their stuff. You know.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
You can come taste and do all that and be
your own. But I'm not fits to open up no winery,
you know, I still gotta use somebody something.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Yeah. Yeah, that's why it's called trade and commerce, right.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Yes, Nike.

Speaker 4 (22:39):
So I was saying, Nike, steam Man, Madden, Cohan, other
for ninety nine percent. And then the toys, what toy
did you don't you that you don't see that's say
made in China, sporting equipment, football, soccers, baseball, all that.
What about kids, Christmas, birthdays, all of that, All of
that is going up, all of what you normally give. Oh,
let me go buy these toys and give it away

(23:00):
to the less unfortunate. Hey gonna do that as the
terrors are up and you're not able to give donate.
These are the things that people need to be aware of, Jade.
It's not about a scare tact. It's about preparing yourself.
That's all I want. I want people to know. I'm
not saying shut down, you know, break down whatever I'm saying,
Prepare your set. That's why we're doing the town hall.
Prepare yourself, reduce your bills. Don't just live in a bubble,

(23:25):
you know, thinking that these things are not gonna affect
you need to start planning.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
Now, that's right, you said, back up, strap up, and
shack up.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
Yeah, I think I'm gonna change it a couple of times,
because shack up is not even just about living with people,
but it's also about combining your business, combining your resources.
Like my stylus, she was saying, you don't scare me
because now I don't want to open them no business,
and no, don't be scared. I'm saying, adjust. Maybe you
get a salon. It's not as big as it used
to be as you want it. Maybe instead of getting

(23:56):
it would by yourself. Maybe bring another person in. Maybe
the iarner sure you were gonna give was gonna be
a living more expensive. You know what I'm saying, like,
don't stop what you're doing. But adjunts also, don't just
be sitting there there saying I ain't gonna worry about it.
They gonna find out I'm mind my black business, or
oh that ain't my problem. Oh they gonna fuck around
and find out. Oh, I'm just gonna believe in faith

(24:18):
and da da da. You know, I'm just saying they
love that one. So I'm just telling you be buying
for so shack up means yes, living with somebody, getting
a roommate. Marcella said he gonna be.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Able to do it up.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
Playing my Marcella's act like it was the highest order
of I wish the people said, you can't have to
do it on five to show out Marcella's face. Oh honey,
it was the highest levels of respect out there. I
talked him about a roommate. I said, you want a roommate.
Oh honey, he did a face. I said, I can't
wait to do that on live. So I can say

(24:54):
I didn't get nowhere because I can't even get against
convinced my team on the three Nowhere Marcella all I
talk about now, Jay, that was a couple of days.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
That was a couple of couple of days ago. I
thought she. I thought she was gonna forget all of it.

Speaker 4 (25:11):
Yeah, welcome home, welcome on. So you got a figure
it out somewhere, So stack up. That's combined resources figuring
it out, save up, save up as much money as
you possibly can. You know, all these big ideas and
all of this that Marcella's I got, I got business,
I did. All I need is forty thousand another day,

(25:32):
go play a lot on Marcella's because I got a stack.
I gotta keep it, you know, together, and then strap up.
Strap up is again. Yes, I believe in being two
A serve two A, being able to make yourself. Crime
goes up and we ain't nobody run around and get
no baby, so I mean literally strap up. So yeah,
those state three things. The town hall guys that I'm
doing is very important.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
And I say this as we close. It's Atlanta.

Speaker 4 (25:56):
Always forget about the Houston day, but Atlanta, March third
in Atlanta, Bank KC School very very very very very important.
This town hall is not about just talking and feeling good.
If I get a hundred people in the room, we
are going to create the one hundred people look out plan.
Everybody ain't gonna be able to go to Marcella. Everybody

(26:18):
gonna be able to go right. And I'm alright with that.
But I'm talking about old school looking out for each other.
If it's one hundred people in the room. You need
to be around one hundred other people that are like minded.
I'm not talking about digital. I'm not talking about Twitter space,
I'm not talking about fan base, I'm talking about Instagram.
I'm talking about in your own hometown, the resources to

(26:41):
look out for one another. And I'm talking about in
a way that is an aggressive way that we don't
have time.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
Like I was talking to my brother Killer Mike.

Speaker 4 (26:49):
He always talks about, you know, black people set aside
one hundred dollars a month, and we take this, we'll
have one hundred million a month, Like Mike, we ain't got.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
Time for that.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
We gotta worry about Atlanta. That ain't sounding rude, but
it is what I need you to worry about. You
and yours I mean you and outside your community literally
where you live. Like with the mindset of if it's
one hundred people in this room, Jay, hey, if twenty five,
if twenty eight y'all are single, then ten of y'all
better find a date up in it Like, y'all better

(27:16):
figure it out, you know what I'm saying, Like, literally
figure it out. You know, if it's one hundred people
in this room and somebody shorter and they read.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Pass the plate.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
You know I'm talking about really not these big large
uh not trying to create these big large echoes.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (27:32):
I can't make all in Lanta get on board. I
can't make all of Houston get on board this division
God has given me. I can't make all of m
not if it's to talk about what all forty six.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Million we need?

Speaker 3 (27:43):
We need?

Speaker 4 (27:44):
Do we need the we know at this town hall
you need to meet some like minded people so you
can look out for each other. You got a business,
support it. If you don't have an extra money, fine,
you just don't have it. Figure out a way. There
has to be something that you put back into the
mot into each other. Yes, that's what the mindset is.
And yes I'm selling tickets because staff gotta get paid,

(28:06):
Locations got to get taken care of it. I'm not
I cannot fund this on my own. So if you
do not, don't please share it, even if you don't
live in Atlanta, share it so we can go to
the next state.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
So this is all I can do. Guys.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
I can't do everything, Jade. I can't get for many
people to boycott Target. They on that great, do it.
I can't sit up and tell people we're gonna have
build our own shoes. That ain't what I do. I
can't tell you that this this that I can only
do what do we say and push the line. It's
not about what, not about we, It's all that's it.
So this is all I can do. So if we

(28:41):
get a one hundred people in the room, one hundred
and fifty people in the room, and we cultivate those individuals,
it's not about just coming. People have events all the time,
but those are usually very self serving. This is about
giving you the information tools how to organize. Counsel Woman
Collum so glad she's got her tickets, she's done come.
She serves everybody in Atlanta at large. Hey, this is

(29:03):
your counselwoman. These are the projects she got going on.
This is what she's trying to do, Atlanta.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
You need to know. This is who you know. This
is X Y and Z.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Here. Houston Day is April twenty seven.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (29:16):
This is what's going on in Houston. Hey, just like
we went to Popitoles, we gotta make time to make
sure we go to Bankcare seafood. I should have been
at Bankcare seafood, but I was being selfish. I wanted
my swamp things really bad. See, I have to make it.
Say no, I can't go get the swamp thing. I
gotta go to my brothers, even though I'm doing an
event there. You're gonna make money from it, you know.
We gotta be very mindful. Yeah, so that's what it is. Guys,

(29:43):
a visit ww dot telsimfigure out dot com. Please get
a ticket if you can. If you want to donate,
y'all know, I've never asked for donations never. I don't
like them. Nothing about it to like. But this is
an actual, real need, you know what I mean. Like,
we actually really are depending on this so that we

(30:04):
can move forward, so that Marcella's can work more hours
JAG and or ours. We need a digital person we
need to hire. Like a lot has to go into this.
I don't ask people to work for free. I pay people.
So we have to get These tours are really you know,
a way to one get folks in the room that
need to be in the room. Continue to you know,

(30:24):
do what we're trying to do. And if you support
my work, if you like what I do, if you
like how I get out. This is the way you
can support it where you can actually see something actually
really happening. You know, our training, getting people on board,
all of that type of stuff.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
I do the work.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
It ain't no infans and bus about it. My job
is not to sit up and give you red meat
and have you just be upset for nothing.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
I've prove it that.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
I give you the tools that you need to actually
make it work. So there's a donation option. All you
have to do is click pay tickets, you know, get tickets,
and there's a donation button there too. So if it's
five dollars, ten dollars, whatever it is, it is appreciated it.
You will see what you get back, and whatever you
get back it will actually be something really benefiting.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
You know.

Speaker 4 (31:06):
Like I said the trainer, you'll see it all you
gotta you don't know what I do. Go to testmfigure
dot com. Go to push the line, click it and
watch the highlight real look at what the people have
to say.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
M hm.

Speaker 4 (31:18):
So guys, make sure you stay locked in. Please support
Black Effect. Also Revolte News very excited. My weekly segment
comes out the recap show. This is the same team
to work on that we're the same team working twenty
four hours around the clock. So that's why, Yeah, I'm
a little bit snappy. Sometimes you don't get.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
A lot of work. Is twenty four hours around the clock.
You gotta do more.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
You want to do black, guess what you gotta do
more and less less, pay less, time off less. You know,
let's talk about it. It is what it is, Yes,
it is, and you gotta monitor. You gotta do that
along with everything else. It ain't no breaks in this.
This is what it is. Everybody don't have to do
what we do, but you need to do something, need

(32:03):
to be found doing something. Like I told my statists,
you can't come up off y'all. Y'all need to be
leading a charge because ain't nobody coming there paying these
fifteen hundred dollars installs and twelve dollars in twelve dollars
install so.

Speaker 2 (32:13):
Nothing else put something in the game.

Speaker 4 (32:17):
Yeah, these entertainers, they should be leading the charge with
this ecosystem I'm trying to put together, because who're gonna
have to extra to suppose being come to buy tickets.
Only Beyonce can make somebody go broke behind tickets. The
rest of y'all get the forty dollars ticket, fifty dollars ticket,
and people can't afford it. They just can't afford it, Jaye,

(32:38):
all right, so they need to be leading, leading the charge.
So I'm not against entertainers and comedians and all that.
We need them all in the building.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
So please support Revote News.

Speaker 4 (32:50):
Guys, again, you're getting my voice here at Black Effect,
the only black network solely exclusively on iHeart, the largest
audio platform in America. You get my visual and Revolt
majority black owned. It's only two that are black on own.
It's a fact on the network. I'm not talking about

(33:13):
test TV because I click YouTube when I call it
test TV, it's not. It's not a TV network.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
It's YouTube.

Speaker 4 (33:18):
Nothing wrong with it, but we must know the difference, guys.
Revolt is literally outside of Rio, the only network on
the dial, meaning on the guide, in addition to a
snapp you know smart app, in addition to the social
media channels and all of that. That's critically important because

(33:40):
when we have linear sponsors, linear means you know, regular
old school TV. Whether you watch TV or not, we
still black people still need ownership in that space. Yeah,
So when we say, oh, we need to support our
own Do we though, Do we even support the things
we have? I think we do, but I'm just you know,
putting it out there like that's important.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Guys.

Speaker 4 (34:01):
Whatever platform I'm own, you own, believe that I'm gonna
push whatever I can however I can. I don't make
every decision, but I am the senior producer, so I
do push hard line, you know, on things that I
think are important. I don't have to switch up my talk.
I can make it about black people over here. I
can make it a bat black people on Revolt. I'm very proud,

(34:21):
but I cannot do this without your support. It's very
important for the longevity of it all up here talking
about black people. This black people, that there's actual, real
targets on our head now pun intended with target, real
targets on our head Jay now now more than ever
As far as me, not y'all, but it's me, you
know everybody. That's why they hide in the comments under

(34:43):
different names. Yeah, Trump and that back and shure. They
getting rid of all of that so they don't have
to write no check to black effect, to write no
check to Revolt, or write no check, you know, to
feel good about it. Federal government said you don't have
to do none of that. No more so if we're
not keeping ourselves in business, you know who will. So, guys,
I need your support. Click like, if you don't watch it, fine,

(35:09):
just if you see me put the YouTube link.
