Speaker 1 (00:00):
I listened to the Black Guy Who Tips podcast because
Rod and Karen at Hey. Welcome to another episode of
the Blackout Tips podcast. I'm your host, Rod. Join us
always on our cost and we're live on a Wednesday.
Ready to do some podcasts and find us everywhere you
get podcasts. Search the black Out Tips. Leave us five
star reviews on Apple Podcasts because we like those. Make

(00:22):
them nice, be nice, and we'll read them on the air.
It's like a nice hug from digitally. You know. The
official weapon of the show is folding chair and the
unofficial sport and bullet bar. Extreme Extreme Extreme, and don't
forget live show tickets are available. They are for sale

(00:43):
the linkers in the show notes. You can get virtual tickets.
You can get tickets in person. We are out of
VIP tickets, but that doesn't mean that you can't still
come and hang out. It's a very intimate space. You'll
be able to see us from any seat in the house.
It's a beautiful venue. We went hired, you know, we
hired people, which means it's real okay, So like we.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Just finalized that stuff this week.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
We didn't just pay for the venue, guys, but like
we paid for a photographer. That costs money. So you know,
we need you all to get these tickets. We paid
for somebody that's going to live stream it so that
you guys can get that you know, live stream and
that zoom and that full experience that you're used to
every year. Uh So get those tickets. Make sure you

(01:27):
get those tickets before. Don't do it last minute because
if I'm not mistaken, they cut it off either one
or two days before the show. And if you get
virtual tickets. If you get virtual tickets but you want
to watch it, you can watch it later, meaning we
will have the recording for you. We will up with
like send you the link. You will be able to

(01:48):
go back and watch it and see the chat room
and all that stuff, experience it all like you were
there the first time. So that's an incentive to get
those tickets this time. I don't think I'll be uploading
it to YouTube as soon, so when like, eventually I
will upload that live show to YouTube, but it'll probably
be a while, just so that people can kind of

(02:08):
get that experience and enjoy getting to be here in
person and have that once you know that you had
to be that moment.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
Yeah, and Also, if you are international, let us know
so they can get your link fixed.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
If you're having problems and things like that. If you're international,
call the box office. That's what they told me to
tell everybody. If you have any trouble, you call the
box office. You know, any ticketing problems, to call the
box office. They're very helpful. Everybody that I told to
do that has been helped. So just to call the
box office and it's the numbers should be on their website.

(02:45):
The virtual tickets aren't the same link as the other tickets,
so if you click the link in the show notes,
it's right there like here. You want virtual tickets or
you want the you know, in person tickets, it's right there, guys.
So make sure you guys sign up. You want to
have fun with you on that night, so make sure
you guys take the time out to do that.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Very excited, so looking forward to it.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Are you got Karen? Do you have any banter?

Speaker 2 (03:15):
I have plenty of it. I've just been jotting shipped down.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
All right, we'll see how much of it we can do.
Do you have any talk to me? Do you have any.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
Talk to me?

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Do you have any banter? Banter? Banter. Banter banter? Do
you have any banter? Talk to me? Do you have
any banter banter?

Speaker 2 (03:54):
All right, I'm gonna start off with mine.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
Uh uh. We've been going to the one this game, lady,
we have a break, so they got a bunch of
stuff happening at the coliseum, and so we've kind of
slowed down. But one of the last times, maybe not
the last time, but one of the last few times
we went, I found out that I was not alone
in like the scanning thing always catching me, because one
day I went and it was like four of us

(04:20):
over there, and one lady was like it always flagged me.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
The next us like always like me too.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
So it was like a collection of us that was
like it always flags us. And I was like, I
feel like like I did when I.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
It was tsl like is it my hair? Is it?

Speaker 3 (04:34):
Like like it is something that consistently flags people. And
I don't know. It don't matter what I wear, no
matter how tight it is, how loose it is, It
don't matter how I wear my hair. It is like
when I walk in there, it's something that that that
picks up on that machine and I have not figured
it out yet, but I'm also glad I'm not loan. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
So it's also interesting because like it's supposed to be
a random scanner or something, but or maybe TSA says
it's random, but it don't seem too random. It seems
like it's always you. It's almost never mean never you don't. Yeah,
I don't know why it is either, but yeah, I
don't care.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
No pocketbook. I take my phone with my little wallet
on it. I just try to limit it. I was like,
let's take the least amount of shit as possible.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
It's like, nope, you steal, you bitch.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Yeah, it's only a second, like like you know, thirty
seconds to a minute in line. But it's just yeah,
it's just weird. Inflation is wild because what do you
mean shit just gonna keep costing more forever? Who decided that? Like,
who was the first person that just made some shit
costs more than it used to? And then everybody else

(05:45):
had to do it too?

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Right?

Speaker 1 (05:47):
You know? It's like how I've turned my microphone upside
down and now Karen turned She spent ten minutes before
the show mess with her mic to get hers turned
upside down. She saw me do it? Is that how
inflation works. Somebody was like, you know what, Actually, now
I think about it, I feel like my bread should
be six cents. And then the person that say eggs
is like, well, fuck it. If you're making six cents

(06:07):
off of bread, I'm gonna be selling eggs for forteen
cent a dozen instead of twelve. And next thing you know,
we all are eternally fucked because that was back in
the age of the dinosaurs or whatever the fuck, and
they was just, you know, bartering chickens for two eggs,
but now the fucking eggs cost twelve dollars and they
gonna keep going up forever. That's why is that everywhere

(06:30):
is every country like this? Is every place in the
world like this. You just can't like it used to
be a time where the sandwich was five dollars, but
just eternally it's gonna be six dollars? Is it landlord's fault?
Who the fucking fault was it?

Speaker 4 (06:43):
They?

Speaker 1 (06:43):
It was just like, you know what, man, turn this
shit up, and now we're fucked with inflation forever?

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Can how to be saying?

Speaker 3 (06:53):
If af o like the like the fuck around and
find out I thought about Okay, now what are you
gonna do since found out what really matters? Like, like, like,
what are you gonna do? I thought about that. I
was like, because everybody saying that, it's like, okay, great,
everybody's pointing fingers, but what are you gonna.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Do for for to find out?

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Yeah, like everybody keep saying that.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Well, I think it's implied in the phrase you're gonna
stop fucking around. I think we think we solved that
when that was an easy one. Maybe maybe not, because
I mean that's what it's That's what's implied by f
A f O fucking around. Find out, you find out,
then you stop fucking around, right, Yes, that's the point.

(07:34):
I mean, it's like your parents saying I'm gonna give
you something to cry about. That that's then I would
like to stop get I would not like something to.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Cry, No, whenever I don't want.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
I now realized what I was crying about obviously was
not worth crying.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
It was not apparently it was not that goddamn important.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
It's levels to this ship. I feel like I haven't
heard the trade the phrase. I feel like I haven't
heard the phrase approval rating since Trump took office.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
No, because it don't matter no more.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Uh, I'm not saying they're not doing the polls, because
someone's gonna write in like a fucking idiot and be like,
what are you trying to say that? You know they
do the president's approve rating every week or some shit.
I mean it doesn't hit the zeit.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Guys, Yes, the news not covering You could.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Not say Joe Biden's name without his approval rating coming up, right,
And I'm assuming that Trump's approved rating is probably still
high and higher than Bondy's, Like, I don't think it's
down low, Like, I don't think any of the stuff
he's doing is tanking his approval with the people that
want him to do it right, And I don't. And

(08:37):
I think there's just like its double standard with Democrats
where they're expected to actually be good at governing and
make decisions to help everybody. So I think it's high.
But it's kind of interesting that you don't see the
discussion even if it's high, just to be like, well,
his approval rating it's fifty three percent, fifty seven percent
or whatever, and if it's low, which eventually all presidents

(08:59):
get to a low approval rating, it's also weird. It'll
be weird if that's not discussed, it's like, yo, these
decisions are not popular. But yeah, it's just interesting because
I felt like approval rating was like a way of
just constantly hectoring certain politicians, and it just don't seem
like it matters with Trump, Like we're not worried about
any polls and opinions, mostly because we don't think he

(09:23):
cares about I think I don't think people care. I
think people know he doesn't care about people's approval and
pleasing any actual voters, just himself and his and his folks.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
Of course, all right, I agree.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
We was outside and I saw someone smoking something out
of a spike can. I didn't or not know that
was possible at all, that you could use a spike
can to smoke drugs out of. I was like, what's
happening over there? Oh, okay, one of the things. But
I didn't see that coming.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, that's probably myth.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
That was not a I'm not being go guard to
see today.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, it was interesting because we were coming out of
a Hornets game, which means there was a crowd of
thousands of people walking through the area and dude was
just lighting up. Man did not care, and he looked methy,
which is why I assume his myth. Maybe it was crank,
maybe it's something else, but it Yeah, he was just
smoking myth out of a spike can, and you know,
God bless him. Times is hard. Remember when we had

(10:27):
kid rappers who rapped about being kids, Yes, about being
Remember they used to be rapping about stuff like missing
the bus the playground, hanging out of the playground, trying
to beat shocking basketball. Like what happened to that? And
I'm not talking about like Van Vand because Vanvan is

(10:48):
like a little little kid, right. I mean there was
a time when, like you were twelve and your favorite
rapper was twelve, yes, and they rapped about shit you
needed to deal with, like a bully.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
It's a homework.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
Yeah, Like I don't like, yeah, it's a snow day.
Here's here's sixteen bars about snow days. You know, things
that were stressful to you, like handed a letter to
your crush and hoping that she didn't throw it in
the trash. You know, that was a that was a thing.
But now I feel like something happened in our lifetimes

(11:22):
where our kids stopped being entertained by kids. There's you know,
like kaison that is not a kid entertaining your kids,
like your kids on Twitch or YouTube and they're watching
like adults tell kids what to do and influence them.
You know, you got rappers who might be young, but

(11:42):
they rap about grown up stuff like fucking in drugs
and gangshit. Yes, but I wonder if at some point
childhood sort of went away for kids in America, at
least with our self phones and our social media and
our streaming platforms and our Internet. I feel like kids

(12:05):
just became little adults and we're just like a lot
of shit very early and very quickly. Yeah, and we're
just like, go be an adult, Like go, like.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
You're just underdeveloped the brain.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
You're just a small adult that needs to be entertained
by adult things and less so. And of course adults,
as adults, the things we grew up with grew up
with us. So the things that used to be relegated
to just kids are not. So a video game is
an adult thing and a kid thing. Now. When I

(12:35):
was a kid, the video game was like that's what
your kids play and your parents. That's the thing they
put on the shelf and tell you to do your homework.
And now it's not like that, and I feel like
it just made me think through this small thought about rappers, Huh,
are our kids not getting to be kids?

Speaker 2 (12:55):
I can see that.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
And also a lot of spaces I'm not talking about
my children. A lot of spaces that were dedicated to
children are gone, and a lot of parents actually bring
their children everywhere with them now and then get offended
when you were like, hey, these spaces used to kind
of be for adults, when we could drink and cuss
and have a good time. You bring your you you

(13:16):
bought your child into an adult place that you did.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
Everybody in here knows is adults.

Speaker 3 (13:21):
We talk about a dope shit, and then you want
the adults to kind of more kind of adjust to
your child being there, and get bad when they say,
fuck your kids.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
You shouldn't bought your kid here.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
I think that's you talking as a bitter adult about kids.
I don't think that's I don't think that that's necessarily
the same thing I'm talking about. I'm talking about even
spaces for kids not being spaces for kids. You know,
I can see that. Yes, think for example, uh, Disney World, right,

(13:51):
there's people that have the money that can afford to
take their kids to Disney World. But you know what
else is heavy at Disney World, grown ass adults who
never got a chance to Disney World because it costs
you fucking much. Yes, So now I'm in Disney World,
sharing a kids space and not having any difference for
a kid. You know, I always chuckle about it, but
it is serious. When we go watch basketball games, it

(14:14):
should it's kind of a mix of kids and adults.
But to me, I feel like kids should get the
difference in that space because that is a space for
kids and the magic of sports and all the not
the jaded bullshit like people yelling out, gambling over and
unders and shit.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
I hate that me too.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
But also, you know what happens in there a lot.
You be cussing in front of them kids, because to you,
it's your space. I'm an adult and I'm here and
I'm mad and I'm cussing and I don't like this
and what's going on with that? And I'm angry and
there's a kid sitting next to you, and that by
happenstance you being the adult, the space transfers to it's
an adult space now where, and the kids just need

(14:52):
to get used to people cussing around. Now, I think
we don't see kids like kids. I think there's something
good about us. Like I'm not talking like so that's
why i wanted to make a distinction. I'm not talking
about a kid coming into a bar. I'm saying like
they used to be there, used to be an understanding
of like a kid is in this space. Let's all
adjust to the fact that that's a kid. And I

(15:14):
think something was and like kids needed their own entertainment,
like not just your cartoon networks, but just like there
was a space of like, nah, that should be an
act for kids, you know, like that, you know, we
kind of lost boy bands. We licensed that out to
fucking career or whatever. Like there's just something and it

(15:35):
feels very American, yes, but there's just something about like
kids are not thought of as a priority. And the
only time you really see people bring up kids and
protecting kids seems to be this like control valve of
like you got gay people on TV in front of

(15:57):
my kids, And I'm like, that's not what I'm talking
about now, that that's just some bullshit I'm talking about,
Like we don't have a Chris Kross, we don't have
another bad creation. We don't have a kuo. When was
the last time you thought about kuo? We don't have
like we just like we just don't have it. And
I don't think it's because I'm out of the loop. Like,
I don't think this is a thing where it's like
old man Rod doesn't know what the kids are into.

(16:19):
I think the kids are in the Sexy Red. I
think the kids are into Kendrick Lamar. I think the
kids are in the MEGANI Stallion like. And I'm not
once again, I'm not judging those acts. Where are the
kids supposed to go? Yes, likes Megan the Stallion. I'm
not judging Megan thee Stallion. I'm not judging the kids,
and I'm not judging the pears in thesell I'm just
saying it's weird that the entertainment industry just sort of

(16:42):
let that thing go. Like I think there's probably still
TV shows you can feel comfortable for kids, but they're
mostly streaming now. But yeah, it just feels like something
happened anyway, That was my thought.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
I can yeah, and and and I can.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
I can see that because, like you say, they used
to be placing is like dedicated and I it would
not be surprising if the pandemic killed those spaces and
they never came back, you know, like like with the
pandemic and everybody was kind of that isolation and everybody
being separated. Nobody ever brought those things back and everybody
was like, well, they're not there, and they kind of

(17:17):
you know, cause depend on what it is. It costs money,
so parents like, shit, I can say money not doing
this bullshit, so fuck it, you know.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
And with kids with parents being more protective, let's say protective, yes,
with parents being more protective, now, I bet that's part
of it too, yes, because like you're tracking your kid,
you're monitoring your kid, your kids around you all the time. Yes,
there's less of the like going out to play at

(17:45):
the park that you can't have a last key kid.
You can't have a kid that rides a bike up
the street without you know, like.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
They got to be in your sight at all times.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
So like I do, kids probably because of that, don't
get to be around other kids and need to do
kids shit with kids. So now they kind of have
the quasi do adult shit with adult with parents, and
parents have to do kids shit. And I think especially
when you think about our entertainment. A lot of it
can be shared. Like I want to see a Marvel movie.

(18:14):
My kid won't to see a Marvel movie. That's a
perfectly good thing for us to hang out together, right,
but this should be a time when if I was
a kid and I wanted to see something like that,
my mom was like, go to the movies, get you
a friend. I'll drive y'all to the movies. I'll drop
y'all off, I'll pick you up, Like this is your thing.
This is not I'm an adult. You know what My

(18:36):
thing is? You not being around for a couple hours, that's.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
Gonna be great.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
The favorite movie of mine is this nap I'm about
to take or whatever. And it just seemed like that
shit went away, and like I said, it took me
down this rabbit hole and talking to you is taking
me further down there. But I was just like, damn,
we don't have a I missed the bus. And it
would change because like, what are the kids going you
wrap about now? It's probably gonna be like you didn't

(19:02):
like my Instagram back or you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
Like you my door dash was late.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
Yeah, you unfollowed me, or something like that because you know,
life is different, yes, for what these kids go through.
You know, I accidentally left my zoom camera on or something.
But the point is like, at least there used to
be a thing that kids to have, and now it's
all you know, kind of gone. Uh, but do do
another one? Uh?

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Oh? I found a place.

Speaker 3 (19:31):
I remember before how I used to complain about both Jackson
have a patio red. We found a place red cherry,
patio red cherry. We found a place with the patio red.
So I'm excited. I get to drink it now at
the Costco's place.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
Oh yeah, Costco's kitchen.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
So I found a place for the patio red because
I was like, all R, I p patio red because
you can't find that shit nowhere.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Else, Like I only know boat Jangles selling it.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Once Boss Jangle stopped carrying it. It really did go downhill.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Oh okay? Uh went to the game.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
Went to one of the games with your mom when
you were out of town. On that Friday night, we
had a ball like, we had a great time. And
y'all they gave out these I call them sticks, but
they like balloon sticks and they like noise makers that
you beat them together and they make noise for like, uh,
when the opposing team shoots free throws, you like beat

(20:29):
the sticks and stuff kind of as a distraction.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
Okay, I didn't know what it was called.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
I just caught them sticks and me and your mom
got some and we were beating them things.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
I love them things.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
They are pointless and they are one hundred designed for children.
They make they don't do nothing but just fucking make racket.
And every time we get them, I.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Beat them shits and just make noise for no reason.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
And me and your mama got them and we beat
them ships and had a ball that game.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
We had a great time.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
I don't understan, why is that just for my mom?
We get the thundersticks and I beat them too. I know,
I know, but no, there's an implication in you singling
out her like I don't do it.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
I do it.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
I beat the sticks. I'll be into it. I gave
you one of my sticks when your stick deflated last
time and we was doing sticks, and I said, and
I got in the miss when I did the triple
sticks thing with you, I was like, we should just
do this. I was into it. I'm funny to go
to games with too.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
You are. I love going to the games with you.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Yeah, whatever, what's the next one. I'm sorry, you're not low,
You're not low. Go ahead, go to the next one.
That's fine.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
I'm sorry that didn't.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
I should take some other people to some games and
then just come back and be like they actually know
how to have fun. No, you know how to do
the sticks. You know how difficult it is to hit
two sticks together. No one on her can do that.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Because sometimes I think I'll be overly excited. I'm so sorry.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
I never I never judged you. I'll never make you
calm down. You excited, I'll be excited I hit the sticks.
It's very interesting in your choices. The next one my tices.

Speaker 3 (22:15):
Oh, I got me some shoes, and a lot of
times when you buy shoes and they have like they're
not rubber, but they kind of like that cloth material.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
When it range, the fis get wet.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
So I got some shoes that were like kind of waterproof,
and I wore them to that game because it rained
that night. I went to the game to Mama, and
that actually worked.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
I was shot shit. The waterproof waterproofing.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
What is the brand? Because someone's gonna want another brand?

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Flux f A f l u x flux.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Okay, thank you, no problem, if you're going to write
in about that.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Guys there, I wrote them down just so forget it,
because I thought about it.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
I was starting to anticipate somebody go ask you might
want to write this down. Car so unprepared.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Today I was going down seventy seven, was going think
I was going to at the doctor's office up somewhere,
and I saw a car with no hood, like the
whole roof of the hood of the injured party was
completely gone, flying down seventy seven, but you could see

(23:29):
the straps flapping they used to hole used to hold it,
and I couldn't see the tag.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
But in my mind, I'm like.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
This car gotta be from South Carolina because you know
North Caline south right the border South Calin. I don't
have inspections like ever never, never, ever, So you do
cars being all types of conditions, they don't they.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
Brief they'd be crossing the line with pollution and ship
your nose. I was like, that's some mad Max ship.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Yeah, because I'm like North Carolina. They would be like,
if you don't get this motherfucker car off the street, no,
you can't drive this car. No, we refuse to pass inspection.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
I know you thought it was a boring movie, but
that's like straight out of Mad Max. I know it
wasn't glory enough for you, but I was playing it
with someone on the roof playing the guitar.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
That's the thing.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
It would have made it better with a ball gag
in his mask, going.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Back, going back and forth, swinging on sticks.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Right, that's crazy.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
I was like, I was so confused at first.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
I seen it, and I was like, because sometimes you
see stuff and sometimes it be like, you know how
people made like specialty design cars.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
That's what I thought it was at first. Then I
kept looking.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
I was like, it was specially designed. They ain't have
enough money to fix the fucking hood on the engine.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
No they did not, No, they did not like the
bitch runs. I was like, well, if it rain, you
ain't going nowhere. Baby.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
You got worried about it overheating, You definitely ain't gotta
worry about it over heating at all.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
And I got some more. But my last one I'm
gonna do is uh uh.

Speaker 3 (24:59):
For those you that watch like anime and animation, I
watch a lot of Itokai and a lot of times
in it's akais uh and and get. In animations where
they do dungeons and things like this, they have something
called like an item box. And an item box is
like something that kind of measuredly comes out of nowhere.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
You could just play shit in it. You can place
all type shit in And I.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
Was like, I would love to have that in real life,
just an item box. You know, just when you get
a bunch of groceries and you don't feel like carrying
them ships, you can just pull out your item box,
put the shit in your item box, put it in
your back pocket, and then take it to your destination
and then just open up and pull the items out
of the Yes, I would really like if you could

(25:41):
have an item box in real life.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
It would just say call it bigger than pockets. No
bigger than that.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
That's all we got.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yeah, that's that's and that's what I said.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
You could take the item box and put it in
those things so you can carry the more things, like
you mean, I know what you mean, A magical box
that is infinite and all that stuff and portable.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
I would like that. That's it for me. I got
more out there.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
All right, well, thank you for that banter, Karen, thank you.
I think that was quite enjoyable.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
I'm glad y'all enjoyed it. And and and let me
do my thing.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
Let's get into another segment. I guess we should talk
about this motherfucker Trump.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
H h h h.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
H.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
All right, let's get to some of this political news.
The White House says that the judges who are stopping
these Trump executive orders and rule are causing a constitutional
crisis and tries to label trying to label them as
activist judges. We believe these judges are acting as a

(27:10):
judicial activist rather than honest arbiters of the law. She
said that her name is leave It Who. Yeah, Caroline,
leave It who. If I'm not mistaken or leve it maybe,
but whatever, I'm not mistaken. I think she got a
weird case about Yeah, her security clearance is fucking weird.

(27:30):
But anyway, this is what they do, right, So basically,
if it doesn't go their way, that's an activist judge, right.
And this is one of the things that I'm going
to explain to the audience. And because there's a knee

(27:54):
jerk reaction some people are having hearing this and I'm
going to explain to them why I think that is stupid. Okay,
So what you're hearing is, well, damn Biden and them
had passed all kinds of stuff and then the judges
struck it down, and he never attacked those judges personally
and called them activist judges and all that stuff. And
why can't we be more like Republicans? Why can't we

(28:16):
do the same thing. Why Biden should have had his
press secretary come out there and start calling people activist
judges and targeting them in the media. The reason that
they can't do that is because our side and I
mean the voters would not have that.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Nope, they flip out.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Because it is expected of Trump and because his side
does not care, they can do stuff like this. They
can have this woman who has a weird security clearance
issue where she's not even really passing the security test.
They can have her be the press secretary and come
out here and say something as ridiculous as this, And

(28:59):
it's just it's just seen this news right like this
is the AP. The AP isn't gonna admonish her. They're
not gonna pick a side, They're not gonna question it. Yeah,
they're not gonna say, well, that's ridiculous, you know, They're
just gonna be like, well, that's what she said. We're
just reporting the news and they don't want to lose
access for that.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
So right, because the second you actually try to actually
be like, hey, we're gonna have some integrity, they're gonna
be like, you can no longer be here.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yeah. So now, Senator Mike Leah Utah Republican said he's
working on legislation to limit the ability of lower ranking
judges to issue nationwide blocks on presidential actions, things that
no one was going to do when it was Democrats
in office, and things that with the Republicans having the
numbers they have, you wouldn't have been able to pass anyway.

(29:46):
So like if they would have passed something to say, hey,
lower level judges should not be able to stop the
Trump document's case, they shouldn't be able to hold it
up in court. Install the Democrats never had the number
is the past that kind of legislation in the first place, agreed.
So it's just interesting when you install the judges that
you want, the ones that you didn't install who are like,

(30:09):
I'm gonna fight against us all of a sudden, they
become public enemies, they become targeted. You know, it did
bother me a little bit. This isn't an administration things,
just a people thing. But I used to listen to
podcasts and they would cover these like rigg d ass
Trump judges fucking shit up, And it was always just
like assumption of like they're trying to do a good job,

(30:31):
but they just happen to be fucking it up a
little bit, or they just don't understand how they're fucking up.
And I always thought that was interesting, because why are
you giving them that right?

Speaker 2 (30:39):
They're too smart? No, they know what they're doing. They're stupid.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
Like how many times is I think it was Eileen
Cannon or whatever, like how many times she gotta do
something before you just be like, no, she she's in
the bag for Trump and she's fucked up. Yep, Like
we I don't know why you think you're doing her
the favor of being this is not impartial what she's doing,
so you don't need to be impartial. You you are
not being impartial by denying that she is being impartial.

(31:02):
I agreed, you know, like you're just calling what happened.
But anyway, I thought that was interesting that you know,
now the judges are activists judges because they don't like
that shit.

Speaker 3 (31:12):
And a lot of these judges are judges that Biden
and Obama put an office, so you know, the ship matters,
the ship matters, And.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
There's a lot of Trump judges he opposed. He appointed
so many judges that this stuff will get to a
Trump judge eventually.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Yes, yes it will, because he did it the first
time and he's doing it again.

Speaker 1 (31:31):
And of course the Supreme Court is the most appointed
Trump judges, So like if they all this stuff is
just escalating up to a point where they want to
get to the Supreme Court and then they can go
told you, you know, like do what we told you
to do.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Right, And and that's the whole point, because that's the
way it's designed.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
And you know, and when you.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Tell people that numbers matter and you just can't do
shit without numbers, everybody want to act like you're crazy,
but you like, y'all, this is just how the government works,
and you don't want to accept the reality of that.
You rather just blame the people who actually don't have
the power to do shit other than put up signs
and protests.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
But they're doing that. Do what you do.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
But just if you're listening to our show, I feel
a little bit of obligation to stop you from being
stupid and right there and saying some dumb shit that
I'm gonna be like now you know, And so I'm
just telling you why when you go democrats need to
grow a spae. And dude, I'm telling you why you
don't have a spine. You don't let them be wrong.

(32:35):
You don't even let them be a little bit more
conservative than you like without bitching about it. Right, so
I know you not finna let them be literally corrupt
and target judges in public, and y'all be like, that's
my body. You didn't want boy to part in his
own son. You thought it was a gotcha moment when
he was like, I'm not letting you send my son
to jail because you don't like me. You thought you

(32:58):
got them on something, You thought you morally compromise him.
You think I should give a fuck. You care that
the Obama's got a book deal. You care that, you
know you you care that when when when U Biden
party all those other people that even though you demanded
he should If you're gonna partner the son that shoul partner.
But when you partner all those other people, you're like,

(33:20):
that's not good enough too. So like we're not fighting
a fair fight. Okay, this is not fair. Our side.
Wouldn't let being better for Palestine be good enough? Then
we'll we'll let the guy who's gonna turn it into
glass in the office. That's our side. So I have
to be realistic about our side and say I don't
think Democrats can be tough because we're not. We're not

(33:44):
willing to be tough too, and be like, you know what,
I'm gonna sit through this with you. You ain't gotta be perfect,
just get the job done. And so I think that's
why this kind of stuff will only happen under Trump. Now,
a judge did clear the way for Trump's playing the
downside federal work the federal workforce with the deferd resignation program.
So I know he has sent They had a stringer

(34:08):
courtroom setbacks, but they just had this significant legal victory.
There's no immediate response from labor unions that had sued
over his over his plan, but District Judge George O'Toole
Junior in Boston found that the unions didn't have legal
standard and challenge the program. Trump wants to use financial

(34:30):
incenters to encourage government employees to quit. According to the
White House, tens of thousands workers have taken the government
up on this offer. The deferred resignation program has been
spearheaded by Elon Musk, who is serving as Trump's top
advisor for reducing federal spending. Under the planning, employees can
stop working and get paid until September thirtieth. Labor unions
argued the plan is illegal and ask for O two

(34:52):
to keep it on hold and prevent the Officer Personnel
Management for soliciting more workers to sign up.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Right, this ship is illegal, Eli Musk is He's not
a goddamn elected official.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
He's not elected.

Speaker 3 (35:03):
Nobody cast to vote for fucking Elon Musk. So how
is this legal? House sway?

Speaker 1 (35:10):
Because he paid for it? He paid for Trump's Uh,
he paid for Trump's campaign and ain't paid for access
to the White House. And I think where I find
my anger is not in It's not necessarily in. My

(35:30):
anger comes with the people that say, like, well, this
billionaire donated to Democrats. They need to stop being in
the pocket of billionaires. Donald Trump is literally in the
pocket of a billionaire. He's doing it right in your face,
and you are quiet. You're just going, damn, ain't that something?

Speaker 2 (35:50):
Ain't that a shame? Right?

Speaker 1 (35:51):
That's what you're doing. This is supposed to be a
non starter. If this is an issue with the American people,
how did this even happen? This isn't an issue. This
isn't a real problem that people care about. It's just
a problem that eggheads tell themselves people care about. The
truth of the matter is the reason that this election
that came down to what it came down to is

(36:12):
just racism. Yep, that's it. It's not more complicated, it's
not smarter than that. Even if you try to measure
into these other reasons like the economy or anger over whatever.
I'm telling you, even when you when you balance out
for that, it's still gonna come down to racism. You know.
I was reading that the cruelty is the point. I
was looking at reading a part of a chapter of

(36:34):
the day, and one of the lines that really stuck
out to me was anger is associated with racism, even
if the anger isn't about race. But that's not something
I would have assumed, and it's definitely not something I knew,
and I don't think I don't know if it's for
I don't think it's for everybody, But saying I think

(36:56):
just what I'm saying is like if you just say
someone is me, like I'm a politician and I'm angry.
And in America it stoked something racial, especially in white folks,
even liberal white folks, you know. I think that's why
the Bernie Bernie Broke contingent turned so many Black people off.
And no one to this day has been able to
articulate why were they racist? Because they're supposed to be

(37:20):
on our side with Democrats. Black people are down right,
but they got mad at black people, start calling me
an establishment, got mad at John Lewis, like they got
very upset that black people didn't fall in line with
no demands, no questions, no answers, just just shut the
fuck up and do what we told you. We're trying
to help you. Can't you see that? And it's because
I think Bernie Sanders is an anger mascot. He's for

(37:44):
angry people, right, You're angry over the economy, you're angry
over whatever, the big corporation of one percent. I'm not
saying you shouldn't be angry, but it is weird that
it took it to a racial place for a certain
constituency of white folks and it ended up being a
racial divide. Bernie lost because could never win black people.
Grannie could never win black people because a lot of
his movement was predicated on anger, and anger ends up

(38:09):
with people saying shit like, including Bernie Sanders, I don't
want all this identity. I'm tired of identity politics. My
whole life is an identity Well, you're you're over here
in a democratic coalition, right, everybody's politics over here is
identity politics, except for white men. Every single person in
this party is an identity politics person. Women are here

(38:30):
because they're women and they want rights for their bodies. Yes,
they're economic issues, but they're also civil rights issues. That's
their identity. Black people, brown people, immigrants, different minorities of religion.
Like so, but I didn't know that reading that really
illuminated something for me today because or the other day
when I read it, because I was like, oh, that's wes. Wow.

(38:52):
You can't get angry without it coming turning a little
bit into rights, even by mistake even just.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
Even even in era.

Speaker 3 (39:01):
And because they're like that, they're assumed that our rage
is the same.

Speaker 1 (39:07):
Yeah, sure, I'm sure of it, and I mean I'm
not even saying it's completely different. I'm sure there's some
black people that get mad. I mean, we've seen them.
There's black people that get mad all of a sudden
they talking bad about Mexicans or something. You're like, what
the fuck are you talking about? That's not even what
the topic was, right, you know, Dave Chappelle and people
that defend them, and people that don't understand why I
don't like some of the stuff that Dave Chappelle and

(39:28):
these brothers talk about. Whenever I question their logic, they
go to anger every single time. If I say, but
I don't understand why you're mad at gay people, are
trans people or whatever, They'll be like, well, black people
are had it so hard for so long. And then
you're telling me it's the same as a trans person.
I'm like, there's an anger coming from you, yes, And

(39:49):
the anger so the anger and the bigotry go along
with each other. Even when you're not articulating like a
specific level of bigotry. The anger just emboldens you to
turn off that part of your brain that I'm trying
to touch, the empathy part the party. You know, I'm like, right,
But I'm not saying it's the same. I'm just saying
it's hard. Why would we want to make it harder
for anybody? We understand what harsh, what undue hardship does.

(40:14):
Why would I.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Want how impacts people?

Speaker 1 (40:15):
Why would I want black women in my community to
have anything harder? Because I've had it hard. That's that
doesn't make sense to me as a black man. It's
so much harder than I didn't say. I'm not talking
about who's playing the game on all Mad versus Madden.
I'm just saying, what, why can't we connect in that
area where we where we can see each other? But anyway, uh,

(40:36):
Toci Gabber got confirmed by the as a nation's top
intelligence chief. A person that's been accused of being a
literal spy and being on the take for different foreign
countries and stuff. She's been considered a foreign asset and
I knew people that fail for it that you know,

(40:57):
I don't know why they fail for it. I don't
want to reduce it to just they thought she was hot,
But I can't think of any funkings because she never
was a good candidate when she ran for president. She
never was a good candidate when she moved over to
being a Republicans and all this stuff, And of course
she passed fifty two to forty eight. So it doesn't
really fucking matter anyway, because at the end of the day,

(41:20):
no matter what Republicans question, they're gonna end up voting
for her. That's you know, you can't trust it. I
think Mitch McConnell's the only one that voted against her,
the only GLP person that voted now, so so yeah,
they she's that they are putting chickens in They are
putting the wolves in charge of the chicken.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
Coop, and they're gonna eat up all the chickens.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
YEP. A judge ordered the Homeland I mean Health and
Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Prevention
and Food and Drug Administration to restore web pages and
data that had been removed and compliance with President Trump's
Executive Order on Gender Ideology. So they took down these
websites because Trump sent them a directive.

Speaker 2 (42:03):
And then and right it was like, you can't do that.

Speaker 1 (42:06):
US District Judge John Bates said, No, here's another thing
that I think is interesting. So what we'll hear is
stuff like I just want to see people fight back.
I want to see Democrats fight back. I want to
see this, that and the other. I need y'all to
understand something. This is part of what the fight back
is gonna look like. So Trump, Trump is gonna blitch

(42:28):
you with twenty seven executive orders on a Monday, And
what you won't notice is twenty five of them have
been not just struck down but held countered. People have
said things, but it won't feel that way because it's
not immediate, like because they're reacting since they're not in

(42:48):
the driver's seat anymore, and you can't really be proactive
with the numbers they have. So it's gonna look like
you're always reacting to some shit because he's always putting
it out to be reacted to.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
Yep, this is this is what it looks like.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
It just it's not sexy that what eight days later,
a week later, the two weeks later, we get a
head judge that put the websites back because because but
when but when the when the websites went down? Though?
How often did y'all see that on your timelines, on
your on your news alerts, on the breaking news scroll

(43:25):
on your TV? How often did you see the Home
Department of Healthy Human Services takes down LGBTQ page. You
won't you're hearing this here. You're not gonna see this
on MSNBC on a loop because they've moved on to
the next bullshit he did. So this is what people

(43:46):
are fighting back there. It's never gonna feel right because
it's not a fair one to one fight. So anyway,
I think that's good news, but you know, for what
it is worth, it's still a very symbolic thing. But
at this point point, a lot of the fight is symbols. Symbols.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Yeah, that's all that's gonna be for right now.

Speaker 1 (44:05):
Yeah, at this point, a lot of the stuff is symbols,
and you just got to decide how you feel about that.
Let's see. Trump provoked Biden's security clearance, citing payback for
twenty twenty one decision. There's no need for Joe Biden
to continue receiving access to classified information. Therefore, we are
immediately revoking Joe Biden's security clearance and stopping his daily
in intelligence Briefly, Trump wrote, he set this president in

(44:28):
twenty twenty one, and he instructed then intelligence community to
stop the forty fifth president of the United States me in
parentheses from access and details of national security and the
courtesy provided to former presidents. Meanwhile, he was a whole
ass op So yeah, and.

Speaker 3 (44:44):
On top of that, it's certain shit that the former
president can't get access to anyway, Like you're not gonna
get everything.

Speaker 1 (44:51):
Yeah, but still, I mean, that's not to me, That's
not the point that matters. Trump didn't get those briefings
because he was a fucking security risk. It wasn't like
they It wasn't petty. He didn't like Joe Biden did
just wake up and go, Man, fuck Trump today. It
was you're holding documents in your fucking Marilago bathroom. People

(45:17):
are we're having security leads, you have connections to foreign intelligence.
These are not petty decisions I made. These are decisions
I made for the good of the country, and the
country decided. Nah, put them back in office, put them
back in office. No, we haven't learned our lesson yet.
We want more Trump and so would Trump go? And

(45:38):
I was fair what he did. No, Trump's a petty
vindictive person who will do it in a petty vindictive way.
And for the record, when Biden did this, I still
remember people discussing it like it might have been some
petty vindictive shit, like Trump wasn't a security risk, like
just still like, did Joe Biden overstep with this? And
it's like, you know he didn't, right pretending but because

(46:01):
of that false objectivity Trump and get people like that
feast on that and they go, yeah, it's the same
thing they did to me, but it's really not.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
Though.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
He also talked with Vladimir Putin and said that they
had begun to begun negotiations to end the war in Ukraine,
which basically means President Zelensky and Ukraine are fucked.

Speaker 2 (46:24):
Yeah, it does.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
And y'all knew this was gonna happen. Some of y'all
like some people, I say, y'all, but some people wanted this.
And I say they wanted this because I saw, especially
a lot of black blogs always posting like any time
any foreign a was approved for Ukraine to help fight Russia,
they would be like, this amount of money went to Ukraine,

(46:45):
but but but eggs cost six dollars or whatever, and
it was they were two unrelated things, but it was
poisoning the well of black support. And I'm sure the
black people weren't the only ones doing it, but this
is where I saw it. It was using that false
equivalent to see the poison the well to be like
this money should stay in America, and that is kind
of what Trump and them will use to embolden these

(47:09):
dictators to take over places. It's basically, go hey, Americans,
let's be selfish right now. We're isolation lists. We should
just keep all our money and we don't need to
help these people. Meanwhile, I'm raising your taxes and me
and Elon Musk are cutting out a government funding the
government agents for people here who live here too. So
for all of you that are like, it's fucked up,

(47:29):
FEMA only gave people this much money, but they sent
money to Ukraine. Well, they're getting rid of FEMA, so
you'll be getting zero FEMA dollars getting zero, and also
wild five and also the money won't be going to Ukraine.
So I guess this is winning so much, winning so much,
feeling great again.

Speaker 3 (47:49):
Right, and also it's one of those things where we
are all connected. Ukraine going down is gonna have a
fucking great ass impact.

Speaker 2 (47:59):
People under estimate what's getting ready to happen.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
Wars are getting ready to happen, because it's not gonna
stop with Ukraine.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
It's good. He's gonna go and kind of invade other
places in the area too.

Speaker 3 (48:13):
And Trump is fucking it up so bad here that
we might turn around and be like, hey, I want
that ship too, And guess what, we ain't gonna have ship.
We're gonna be so fucking bankrupt and goddamn broke, we're
not even gonna be able to fucking defend ourselves.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
The fuck's happening here?

Speaker 1 (48:28):
Yeah, yeah, I don't I don't know. I just think
they're they're raiding the they're raiding the treasury right now.
And none of this stuff is gonna help American people.
None of this is about balancing the budget or the
economy or saving jobs. I really don't believe them. But yeah,
he's also like got the DLJ targeting like Letitia James

(48:52):
and and uh some of the other prosecutors that like
tried to hold him accountable. Inflation has gotten worse for
four months now, so I know he said he was
coming in He's gonna fix inflation right away, and eggs
price is gonna go back down, and and and that's
not happening. So yeah, it's just, you know, it's a

(49:16):
total shit show on purpose. George Lopez slams Hollywood for
silence on Trump's mass deportation policies. Listen between this shit
and Palestine. I'm not trying to be a dick about this.
There's no joy in my heart about this. I'm actually

(49:37):
very living and sad about it. But this story and
the next story pro Trump. Arab American group changes its
name from Arabs for Trump to Arabs for Peace after
Trump's comments where he talked about how Gaza would make
good like land for United States to own. It was

(49:59):
good Viera property. And he's encouraging BB and Yahoo to
actually if he wants to like rescind the ceasefire, that's fine.
He's taken all sanctions off of weapons. That's right, guys.
No one told you this. There was actually some sanctions

(50:19):
on some of the weapons that they were providing because
the United States was trying to get that cease fire
to go. So all of that said, I don't feel joy.
I feel maybe some level of anger, some level of vindication,
but there's no happiness in it none, because, yeah, George Lopez,

(50:42):
they're not talking about immigration. The time to talk about
that was before November, when you had something that you
could do about it. I agree, right now you don't
have nothing to do about it. And honestly, a lot
of this shit seems like they wanted to stub their
fingers in your eyes just to like spike you and
be like, yeah, we do want immigrants. You're suffering. They
laughed at well, I forget her name now, But the

(51:05):
actress last year, last week that cried, they laughed at her,
They mocked her. A Republican politician said he would like
to see her get deported.

Speaker 2 (51:16):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
The cruelty is the point.

Speaker 2 (51:18):
That cruety is the point.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
And this and changing your name from you know, the
uncommitted or the Arabs for Trump or whatever, it doesn't
change anything because at the end of the day, now
that he's in office, you're done that. You're not protesting,
you're not marching, you're not trying to become a constituency

(51:43):
in his ear. You're not saying, hey, win our vote
by doing this action of that, you're done. You're no
longer valuable you were useful and that you helped him
to gain power, and in any other way, he will
never consent to you. You're not special, meaning that I
feel he's the same way with his white voters. He's

(52:06):
just there is no giving back, there is no thank
you coming, and if anything, it is just sped up
something and exacerbated something and it has made it worse.
And if you can't handle that, then I don't even
if you can't handle the fact that that is a truth,

(52:27):
then I don't know what the fuck you were protested
for in the first place.

Speaker 2 (52:31):
Agreed, And it was very very for me.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
It was very very frustrating when you had a candidate
in Kamala Harris and even Joe Biden that would actually
listen to you and actually took you seriously and would
be like, yes, you know, if you want these things
to continue to be at the forefront, vote for me,
and things like that, when people were saying, hey, y'all,

(52:56):
it's fucked up what's happening over there.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
If you want.

Speaker 3 (53:02):
These things that you claim you want, Trump ain't it.
Trump is gonna There's nothing on Trump's agenda that is
going to make the things that you claim that matters matters.
There are some people that were truly genuine about protesting
and the things they were upset about, but it was
bots and it was a large percentage of people that

(53:24):
were in it because it was a fad. In the
second it became no longer fad, they left the calls.

Speaker 1 (53:30):
Yep. So I mean, like I said, I'm not I know,
I've seen the people dunking on them, I've seen the
people mocking them and talking shit about them and all
that stuff. I'm not gonna participate in that just because
I just feel like what would even be the point.
And it's not because I'm trying to convince them you
need to come to our side. I just really think

(53:51):
the other thing I think is seeing some of the
commentary from the people who helped to make bring this
Trump thing to fruition, I don't think that they would
change in single action or take any level of responsibility,
which is how you end up here, Like there was
an action you had to mitigate, you chose not to
because you need to remain ideologically pure right, and now

(54:14):
that these things you claim to have woned are coming
to fruition, you abscone from responsibility. Agree you think you'd
be walking around like, yeah, we did put Trump in office,
we made that happen. But instead they're being like I
had nothing to do with this, and I'm like, okay,
so then it's nobody's fault. We can move on. But yeah,
it's it is interesting watching people kind of like walk

(54:34):
away from this. David Schwimmer from Friends calls on Elon
Musk to ban Kanye West from Twitter because Kanye West
was tweeting some anti Semitic stuff. He said, silence is complicity.

Speaker 2 (54:51):
Oh he's not gonna do that, not on his platform.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
Karen Karen, Elon Musk did a Hitler salute during a
Trump speech. Elon Musk did that, Now, why the fuck
do you think he would be like, yeah, Kanye West,
what's going on with all this Nazi stuff? What? What

(55:15):
are we am? I stupid? I am my mother fucking
dumb dog? He teamed Nazi. Like what, David Swimmer, have
you just not been on? Have you just not paid
attention to anything? Right? Like Elon Musk is campaigning for
like neo Nazi type parties in other countries Like this, dude,

(55:40):
is he's he one of them?

Speaker 2 (55:44):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (55:46):
Just like.

Speaker 1 (55:48):
I just I just can't believe. It's like if you're
watching space Jam and you're going, hey, one of the
mon stars, you just gonna let them, You just gonna
let your teammate flagrantly found me. Of course we are, yes, Nigga,
I am team flagrant found. We the mom stars. We

(56:12):
do Kanye running point. What are you talking about? I'm
the powerful it, I'm on the team.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
What are we saying? Yeah, I'm not gonna go against
my teammate. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:23):
I also thought this was highly ironic that the A.
I think it's the ad L. I think that's what
they're called, Anti Defamation League. They stand up for Jewish
people in there against anti Semitism and stuff. Okay, so
when Elon must did the Nazi salute, they tweeted out

(56:44):
that now is a time for understanding and patience and
we don't, you know, it's a very precarious time, and
we don't want to say anybody's doing anything that they
don't blah blah blah. And of course, rightfully, so everybody's like,
he's doing the Hitler salute. What the fuck are you
talking about?

Speaker 3 (56:59):
Right?

Speaker 2 (56:59):
Ain't that the whole thing? Ain't that the orghole as organization.

Speaker 1 (57:02):
Right, like, how we even why are you telling us
to calm down? Bitch, get the work? This is what
the fuck we y'all do, right, Just like the fire
department looking at the arsonists and being like, hey, let's
all calmed down. They just setting a few fires, but
they might have been setting to maybe it was cold inside.
Maybe they was trying to warm up everybody. Uh So,

(57:25):
the ADL was like, Kanye West, there's zero tolerance, There's
no place for this, and everybody was on their airs on.

Speaker 2 (57:33):
Twitter like yes, be consistent.

Speaker 1 (57:35):
Right like now, and like I really hate to lead
any credence to this, but I have to cause I
don't see how you can get a better counterfactual than this.
This is like when they went in on Kyrie Irving
and I remember telling my fellow black folks like, yeah,

(57:56):
but Kyrie is fucking up like in that documentary all
that shit, and I get it. They're like, hey, don't
do that, and they were like yeah, but they wouldn't
treat everybody like that. Partiesn't doing that because Kyrie's black,
And I'm like, but he was fucking around with some
anti Semitic shit. How can you even feel that way

(58:18):
I apologized I was wrong. It's really two sets of
rules with this anti Smitism for them, when it's a
black person, they gotta get out the paying zero tolerance.
We gonna want to hear a fucking thing they got
to say when it's Elon Musk doing it from the
presidential stage, which is a much more impactful, influential and dangerous,

(58:42):
dangerous set of circumstances compared to some fucking NBA player
won't play because he's not vaccinated. When that guy is
doing that and you're trailing me to calm down, we
need to understand. But Kyrie Irvin watched the documentary. We
don't even know if you watched it to Beyond, but
he like, let us know there was a documentary on

(59:03):
Amazon that was zero tolerance, the rantings of a literal
mad man who is in bipolar mania and Kanye West,
who none of us takes seriously. That's zero tolerance. But
Elon Musk, the real president, we need to have some understanding.

(59:26):
Funk out of here.

Speaker 2 (59:27):
Bro agreed.

Speaker 3 (59:28):
My thing is maybe I didn't get the update on
the firm wherever, because I you know, Apple Kare told
me that if y'all come after us, it's never forgetting.
We're going fuck who is doing it. We were like, no,
we're not putting up with it. It don't matter who
do it.

Speaker 2 (59:45):
But apparently that's not the case, right, Like they.

Speaker 1 (59:49):
Went out that yeah someone brought They went out to Jamie.

Speaker 3 (59:51):
FOXX, Yes they did, and he was like, y'all know,
that's not what I meant.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
And he apologized too.

Speaker 1 (59:57):
Yeah, Like it's like, I really you hate to be
like that because I don't, like, I don't think there
should be levels to like, hey man, uh, this is
fucked up. But I'm black, so you can't call me
out on it because I don't do that neither. But
I definitely do notice when someone's like it's black people

(01:00:18):
can't fuck up. But these this white guy, that's different.
Nah man a Nazi salute and you're telling me it's
a different way to look at it. Get out of here. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
And it's also, you know, one of those things where
because of their proximity to whiteness and here in this country,
you're considered white. So for a lot of even though
you're not, for a lot of them depend on where
they are in their status and all that stuff. They
that white supremacy seeps into them too, to where they
view these things like that when they shouldn't. If you're

(01:00:50):
gonna be consistent on own, I don't know people be consistent, yeah, And.

Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
I don't know why. To be honest, I don't know.
If they're trying to get political favor. I don't know.
I really I haven't looked into it enough for me
to know all that, But I definitely know that they
were saying. This is a delicate moment in a new day,

(01:01:15):
and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed,
and social media only adds to the anxiety. It seems
that Elon Musk made an awkward gesture in a moment
of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute. But again, we appreciate
that people are on edge in this moment. All sides
should give one another bit of grace, perhaps even the

(01:01:36):
benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is
a new beginning, less hope for healing and work together
toward unity in the months and years ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
Right, what happened? Another? Again, what happened?

Speaker 1 (01:01:50):
Are you playing in my face?

Speaker 2 (01:01:51):
Right?

Speaker 3 (01:01:51):
Like?

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
I didn't see what I saw?

Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
Stop playing in my face? Man? Doing that?

Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
Like I'm tasting lead. I'm not crazy. I know what
I saw.

Speaker 1 (01:02:02):
Tasting lead is good. I like that. All right, let's uh,
let's get out of this. Okay, that's that's that's bad enough.
But let's move into some other news. Let's do a
little bit of just just regularly.

Speaker 4 (01:02:17):
Listen, listen, you see, you see, you see, you see.

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
I really enjoyed that tasting lead. That's new.

Speaker 3 (01:02:50):
That's probably not the phrase, but that's the first thing
that popped in my head.

Speaker 1 (01:02:53):
Well, I think it's tasting pennies.

Speaker 2 (01:02:54):
Okay, I think.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
Tasting lead is better because lead. It's better for a
lot of reasons. But yeah, also a hundred for fucking
black people, right, Yes, a little bit of Kendrick Lamar
Drake news. So that was a halftime dancer who pulled
out a flag that said like free Palestine or something

(01:03:17):
on it, or the word like Guayza was on the
Palestinian flag and as part of a protest. Now, this
was a person that was They didn't trespass. It wasn't
a fan who ran on the field. They were a
backup dancer. They were part of like practicing for weeks
for Super Bowl Wow. But it was on their heart
to protest and to like stand up and say like

(01:03:39):
this is wrong and I want to let people know
that this is wrong and I'm not against it. I'm not.
I ain't mad at it at all. I know some
people was mad at it. I did make a joke
about it, was like I hope he like, I hope
we didn't do all this and not vote, you know,
just voted. That was just like a funny thing to say.
But somebody was like this not didn't. I'm like, nigga,
I'm the funny person. Not pretty sure this is it.

(01:04:03):
That's pretty funny. You don't gotta agree with the joke
for it to be a funny joke. I agree, but yeah, uh,
but you know, standing up for the college protesting, like
shout out to him for using the platform they had
to to do this. Now that once again, I'm not
really a simple symbolism person when it comes to my politics,

(01:04:26):
and I prefer power. I'm prefer someone to be in office,
like I'm down protest. Do you think I'm not mad
at you? But you know, uh, symbolism means a lot
more to me when there's something that can be done
to help. Right now, I feel like we've put the
we put guys in Palestine in the worst possible predicament

(01:04:47):
of all the predicaments. And the protest means nothing to
Donald Trump, who sat there and watched it. It won't
It won't change his heart, it won't change anyone's administration.

Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
It did not move him or anything.

Speaker 3 (01:05:01):
And the thing is the thing about symbolism, Like you said,
it don't matter, but it don't have strength, and it
don't matter when it can't really do anything. And some
people are the loudest when they don't have no power,
and you're like, where were you before?

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
Well, now, I'm not gonna say that about these people
because I think they were there before then they were
They've been here the whole time. If if anything, I
feel like you can't have it both ways and be
like where y'all at now, because that's what we said earlier,
right like a lot of y'all not marching no more.
This person put they put they they put it out there,
they say not I still do give a fuck. I

(01:05:35):
don't care if Donald Trump is watching, So I'm not
gonna integrate this person. They didn't do anything wrong. I'm
not annoyed by them. They I think what they did
was actually quite fucking brave, to be honest, so brave.
They got detained at the at the super Bowl Stadium

(01:05:55):
and they ended up being let go. But when they
were detained, they the NFL or the police put out
the statement saying like they're looking to see what they
can charge them with. And I found that interesting because

(01:06:17):
there isn't anything you can charge them with. They didn't
do anything illegal. They did something you don't like, but
like if Kendrick would have held that sign up, you
can't just put them in jail. That's actually against freedom
of speed. They didn't truspass on the stage. They had
every right to be there. Now, look, if I'm Kendrick,
I might be mad I put on this show this
whole time. You went rogue on me. Yes, but that's

(01:06:40):
less about agreeing with the stance, and that's more just
like damn man, Like what if everybody did that? They
would have fucked up the wholest of bow, But it
also would have made a hell of a statement. Also,
I wouldn't put it past Kendrick to be.

Speaker 2 (01:06:50):
Like do that shit.

Speaker 1 (01:06:51):
But but yeah, I thought it was interesting that they
detained this person looking for a charge and know there
and they they won't face charges. They won't like, but
there's nothing to charge them with.

Speaker 2 (01:07:08):
Agreed.

Speaker 3 (01:07:08):
And to go back to what I was saying before
about sometimes you know, people don't allows me that don't
have no power and less about this person and sometimes
more about some of the things you see online.

Speaker 1 (01:07:22):
I feel that way because I just we were talking
about this person. Yes, so I had to point out
for this person. I don't feel that way. I agree,
you know, Like I think what they did was pretty
fucking dope and very brave, and most of us wouldn't
have done that shit, I know, and I'm glad they
didn't get they won't have to face charges because I
really do think that's a waste of everybody's time because

(01:07:46):
nothing's going to change because they did that. But I'm
but still I'm glad they did it. You know. Kendrick
Lamar's Super Bowl was a record breaker. It was like
the most watched of all time, Let's go, which is
so funny the viewers it So the actual Super Bowl

(01:08:08):
drew one hundred and twenty six million, but the peak
was one hundred and thirty seven point seven million just
before halftime, which is for Kendrick, so more people tuned
in for Kendrick than this. Yes, it is the most
watched Apple Music halftime show ever with one hundred and
thirty three point five million views. What I think is

(01:08:29):
extremely amazing and impressive about that viewership number is also
the fact that we don't have singular TV anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:08:38):
People stream people, they watch them all types of riss.

Speaker 1 (01:08:42):
So you're not even catching everybody like where before it
was like everyone knows be at the house at XPM
to watch ABC extreaming from everywhere down. Yes, so yeah,
it was record setting. Like I said, I we talked

(01:09:02):
about it with Bossy. I won't go over the like
back and forth about who liked it and who didn't
like it. I think everyone's entitled to their opinions, that's
why you do it. I liked it. I thought what
he did was very Germane to him, and in many
ways it reminded me of what I like about doing

(01:09:22):
game theory. It just sometimes the shit is just not
trying to catch everybody. He could have done that, He
could have made tried to make the most broadest, mainstream,
high energy halftime show, and I wouldn't have begrudged him
for it. I wouldn't have been mad at him, but
he decided to go a different direction do him. He
decided the message was more important than his own notoriety

(01:09:43):
and how many more fans he could have reached or
not with, just like with I'm Kendrick Lamar. Instead, he
kind of reached on what they this is. This is
a message about America and blackness and black culture and
this is my this is what I feel about it,
and I I really enjoyed that. So shout out to

(01:10:05):
him for doing that. Also, Joe Budden claps back at
Drake because Drake, this is I can't believe this is
a grown ass man. Drake's almost forty year old ass
has a fake Instagram account Fensta. Oh that's what they call.
The kids called it Fensta. Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:10:26):
Oh oh so that's the tag. That's the name for
fake Instagram account Fensta.

Speaker 2 (01:10:30):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
So he he has a Fensta and everybody knows what
it is then, which it just I'm sure I don't
understand somehow, m M. I'm sure. I I'm sure the
kids would tell me, like, nah, everyone know everybody fake Insta.
But whatever, when you're the most famous person in rap,
it seemed like a weird thing to not to have

(01:10:53):
to need a fake Instagram just say it with your chest,
Oh your whole chest, whole baby back bitch. But he
uh was on his fenced and he threw shots at
Joe Budden and Joe Budding. Else to do because he
can't throw them at Kendrick right, nothing else to do,
same reason. He's like lebron cheating, y'all? That shit went

(01:11:14):
away fast, isn't it?

Speaker 2 (01:11:15):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:11:16):
Because everybody, it's like we all because all of us,
it's not whether it's true or not. None of us
care because that's not you battling Kendrick.

Speaker 2 (01:11:24):
Yep, that's all we care about.

Speaker 1 (01:11:26):
So I guess after that, Joe Budden went on his
podcast and told him to get back into booth and
that you're dead or not going back and forth with
the courts. Blah bla blah. People were sharing the clip,
But I just thought that was interesting that Drake grown
ass is still trying to move weirdly instead of just
coming straight out and saying whatever. M hm, let's see.

(01:11:51):
Michael B. Jordan says he's proud of Jonathan Major resilience
and that he would work with him again.

Speaker 3 (01:11:58):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:11:59):
I guess he's doing press for sinners. He was on
GQ on the cover and they asked him about Jonathan
Major's and he said, but he's doing great. He just
got engaged. I'm proud of his resilience and his strength
through it all. I'm glad he's good. That's my boy.
He even called him his brother. He said, uh, a'sked.

(01:12:20):
What did you ever consider working with him again? He said, yes, yes,
So I wonder if this is gonna be part of
the comeback possibility.

Speaker 2 (01:12:28):
Do you have people who will continue to work with him?

Speaker 1 (01:12:31):
I wonder. I wonder we'll see. But I mean because
I don't I don't mean this in a way to
be dismissive of John. We've talked about Jonathan Major's on
here a lot, and I refuse to reduce or lie
because a lot of people just flat out live about
the Jonathan Major's thing now, and they just depend on
y'all to be stupid or not know and not look

(01:12:52):
it up, or the people that are talking to to
not be curious. He was convicted of a couple of things. Uh,
it was beyond just that one incident where he hurt
the woman's finger, and the evidence in the courtroom was
about an abusive relationship, not just that one incident. I'm

(01:13:16):
I'm not, but everyone knows famously listening to podcast.

Speaker 2 (01:13:18):
I'm not a like.

Speaker 1 (01:13:20):
I don't watch the people. If they're not a good person,
I don't watch it. I'm not even like that. So
that's not my point that I'm about to make. What
I do wonder is if somehow philosophically, the reelection of
Donald Trump has allowed this lowering of the bar that
people are so desirous of, to the point where it's
like everybody's okay now, like and I don't mean everybody's okay,

(01:13:44):
like they're good, but like everyone you can't disapprove of
anyone because we approved of Trump.

Speaker 3 (01:13:50):
And I can see that they go if y'all put
that motherfucker in office, okay.

Speaker 1 (01:13:56):
Yeah, Like when you see a Brad Pitt introducing America
to the super Bowl and we know what he did
with Angelina, Jolee and those kids, can you call him
out when they're about to show Trump on the jumbo
tron during the national anthem and he's gonna get a
bunch of cheers, Like there's something about it. It's not
quite clean. In my mind yet the point I'm trying

(01:14:18):
to make, But there's something about having Trump I think
allows people to be their worst sells and be like, no,
this is fine.

Speaker 3 (01:14:27):
Yeah, the standards are going because that's one thing with
Joe Biden being in office, no matter how you felt
about him, there was still some forms of standards, some
forms of normalcy, some forms.

Speaker 2 (01:14:40):
Of a dolls. There's certain ship that we just ain't
gonna let see.

Speaker 1 (01:14:43):
It's like, what's not what's impossible now for somebody to
come back from?

Speaker 2 (01:14:48):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:14:49):
You have a person who's been legally convicted of sexual assault. Yeah, yeah,
and that's he's pressed. Who told you what kind of
racist shit he's gonna do? And he's doing it. It
makes the culture wars feel much less important, and also

(01:15:15):
makes the culture Wars feel in some ways performative and
fake because it even though it's not a damning percentage,
it's that he barely won this election, but it feels
like culturally there's been a reset referendum, like, nah, we're
done with that. And so I wouldn't be shocked if

(01:15:35):
you see a Jonathan Major's come back now, just because
who the fuck is that preoccupied with Jonathan Major's being
a good or bad person. Now I'm not saying they
shouldn't be. There'll be some holdouts, but it don't feel
like those people are in control, and it doesn't feel
like anyone wants to listen to those people anymore. I
feel like everybody's like, nah, we get it. You know,

(01:15:56):
like when a company lets go on some DEI thing
right now, Yeah, you could be mad at that company,
but when it's every company, it's a lot harder to
navigate that we me and mad. It's like, well, now
you're just mad at Disney and uh Cosco, not Costco,
but you know, Walmart and Target and the individual just
like fuck it, I gotta live.

Speaker 2 (01:16:17):
Yes, why am I wasting all this energy?

Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
Correct? Uh, let's see Google calendar drops pride Black History
months and Google Maps renamed Golf of Mexico to Golf
of America. What's again, what are you gonna You're gonna
stop googling? Well, we're using we're using ass jeeves now.
I don't know, but it's just everybody's doing abandoning ship
at the same time. There's no standards, you know. Let's see, Uh,

(01:16:46):
I'll do a couple more Eric Adams chargers have been
dropped by the Justice Department because he kissed up the
Donald trunk. And the word on the street is he's
advised his administration to not contest anything that the Department
of Justice and Donald Trump wants to do the immigrants
in New York and that not to be critical of

(01:17:07):
Donald Trump. And they dismissed these charges. They dropped these
charges with I think I think it's without prejudice either,
whatever the term is. They dropped the federal corruption case
against him, but it can always be revisited and brought back.

(01:17:29):
Meaning so he now is their bitch.

Speaker 3 (01:17:33):
Yes, and he gonna want to keep that man in
office as long as he can, or any Republican because
if you get somebody else that was like, no, we're
bringing this bullshit.

Speaker 2 (01:17:41):
Back up, he in trouble.

Speaker 1 (01:17:42):
And you know he's a very self serving man. So
he offerser Mayor Eric Adams is not going to rock
the boat. He is going to one hundred bend over
for Trump and just be like, whatever you need to
do to the people of my city that I swore
to like govern you can do whatever the fuck you
want to these motherfuckers. And they're already doing stuff like

(01:18:02):
taking away the funding that they were getting from the
gov federal government for to help immigrants, and those programs
to help these displaced immigrants, some of them even sent
to them from other states in America. They're already cracking
down and he will refuse to stand up for anybody. Yup.

Speaker 3 (01:18:21):
And it's one of those things where y'all be safe
up there. This is the ship that the South has
to deal with all of the time, and all drugs said,
like y'all getting ready to get a case of oh shit,
We didn't think it would happen here because y'all vote too,
Like y'all put.

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
That man in office.

Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
Me, my black ass down here didn't have a vote.
Y'all voted, y'all put that person in office. And isn't
it upsetting when you put somebody in office and they
don't do the shit today that you put him in
office to do, which is fucking governing, and people just
come and just do shit, and all you can do.

Speaker 2 (01:18:51):
Is just get angry and mad and just upset. You know.
It's one of them things. Well why don't you move,
Why why won't you get up out of there? No? Okay,
then all right.

Speaker 1 (01:19:03):
That's been our moment. Of Karen turning on the northerners.
All right, that's a new segment that we're doing. Uh,
I say something tragic is happening in the northerns and
she says, fuck y'all. Uh what about s y'all said
about us back in the day. No, no, no, no
empathy for him. It's hum it's the empathy we want

(01:19:25):
them to have for us. Let's not have it for them.

Speaker 3 (01:19:27):
And the thing is, I do care. It does hurt.
I am concerned.

Speaker 1 (01:19:31):
It's very valid what you're saying. These are things we've
heard our whole lives from people that don't live here.
I'm it's still funny, and I'm not gonna not make
that joke that every single time you get very upset
at them, and they're the ones that have to deal
with having this fucked up mayor, especially if they listen
to this show. They didn't vote for this motherfucker, they
didn't want this ship. They're not they're not okay with

(01:19:53):
him being this this piece of shit. But but everything
you're saying is valid, But it is still ironic and funny.
I'm gonna make the joke. We've all experienced it every
every time I talk to a Northerner and tell them
about how fucked up ship is. They just tell us
to move or act like it exists only down here.
So no, it's no apology needed. It's still funny though.

(01:20:17):
Speaking of funny, I like to do something a little funnier, guys,
because you know, I just got kind of serious. I
didn't know came was gonna get so upset, guys, we
come back. I'm gonna try something a little different. I
want to talk about this picture of Candice Owns Psycho.

(01:20:42):
That's all right. So I was on the timeline the

(01:21:07):
other day and someone had tweeted out a picture of
Candace Owns from when she was a kid. M hm,
and uh it was it's not it uh boom, it was,
Oh no, this one's been heard her photo kid tracked
minifro yeah, and she. I had to google her because

(01:21:31):
I was like, how old is Candace Owners? Because this picture,
for those of y'all that can't see it, I think
they said she was I think they said she was
thirty one, thirty five, But this picture really looked like
a picture from like nineteen seventy something, yes.

Speaker 2 (01:21:51):
Eighties, seventy eighties.

Speaker 1 (01:21:53):
Yeah, she got a windbreak on right, and I'm not
gonna lie. I saw some people making jokes about it,
and I didn't necessarily agree or like the jokes because
a lot of the jokes were basically trying to say
she looks like a boy, and they were mis gendering
her and all this stuff, And I'm sure that hurts
her feelings, But also I'm not really I think that's

(01:22:14):
a bit transphobic, and I actually think that's a bit regressive,
and I don't think that's necessarily of high borrow comedy.
I don't think it's that funny. But I did have
jokes myself. They just weren't necessarily about her not being
not looking like a girl enough, that's not to me
that's funny. But she does look like a recurring guest
on What's Happening, you.

Speaker 2 (01:22:37):

every special.

Uncle Phil definitely spoke at Ashley School to inspire the kids,
but then Candice was interrupted and then they found out
later that she was acting out because she came from
abusive home and they got her out of there at
the end of the episode. But then we know, but
then we never saw her again. She wasn't in no
more episodes. She definitely tried to get we up to

(01:25:00):

to the hospital because she jumped out of a third
story window after school because the weed had PCP in it.

they get it. They know what's up. Oh man.

Speaker 3 (01:27:59):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:27:59):
And then the last thing I'll do is there. So
then Stephen A. Smith was watching the Super Bowl and
he saw Serena Williams cript walking on on They not
Like Us, and he said he would divorce Serena Williams
over her being in the super Bowl dancing on her

(01:28:19):
ex drake k I knew once again. I cannot think
of a funnier thought than any woman in the world
having to deal with the single most argumentative man on
the planet in a relationship. I just cannot There's nothing
funnier than Steven A Smith legitimately trying to have conversations
with somebody that he has to have sex with. That's insane.

(01:28:41):
No woman would have to. They would put rat poison
in his grits by day two. It's no fucking way
in his house. Gotta be a fight. I thought, I said, honey,
nut cheerios. They're like, oh god, so I'm supposed Wow,
are you giving me a tea spoon when I want

(01:29:03):
a tablespoon? Like just not no, no, Steven, that I
don't I don't want no problems. So you just can't
do the dishes. Oh God, I want to want you.
I know you want me to want to do the
dishes anyway. The problem with going after Serena Williams shout
her number one fan, right is her husband?

Speaker 2 (01:29:27):
Yes, he got a shirt.

Speaker 3 (01:29:28):
I'm her number one fan, bitch, I'm I am in
the fan club.

Speaker 1 (01:29:33):
A man who was rich in his own right. Yes,
he is a man who was a self starter and
gained a lot of stuff on his own. But as
far as he's concerned, he the number one Serena Williams groupie,
and the number one groupie. She don't need a hive
because she got Alexis o'honey and hive, I have a

(01:29:53):
one and he be going up for So he posted
something about this, and I love I loved every second
of reading this because it was so like I knew
he first of all, I knew he would come through.
I just want to say that first of all, like
I was like, wait till I can't wait till Alexis

(01:30:14):
get a hold of this, Like that's that's how.

Speaker 2 (01:30:17):
Excited I was told him.

Speaker 1 (01:30:19):
Yet Stephen Ain said that ship. I said, Oh, it's
gonna take a day or two because Alexis gotta put
you gotta put baby Alexis to bed.

Speaker 2 (01:30:26):
But he gonna hop in the babies the bed.

Speaker 1 (01:30:28):
He gonna hop online and he gonna let this man
have a peace after the babies go to sleep. And
so I'm gonna read this to y'all. I get it.
You're fifty seven and life didn't turn out the way
you imagine. The kind of that's that kind of disappointment
must be exhausting. You're the embodiment of peaked in high school,

(01:30:52):
spending decades chasing validation from strangers through likes and digital hugs,
only to find that no amount of extra or approval
feels the void. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. No, Now,
I just want you to I just want to stop
here real quickly. I just want to stop here real quickly.
Let y'all know, likes and digital hugs is straight out

(01:31:13):
of that Kendrick euphoria. Faking for likes and digital hugs.
And you know, Alexis goes up for that Kendrick euphoria
because it's dising Drake, and Drake is Serena's ex, and
Drake famously diss Serena at one point, and so, uh,
Alexis will always be here for I always for some

(01:31:33):
Kendrick shade. But back to this criticism only fuels your
victim complex, reinforcing the comforting delusion that there's some grand
conspiracy against you and your brave ideas in quotes, when
in reality you've just got terrible takes. It's a cycle outrage, backlash,

(01:31:55):
self pity, repeat. This is a lonely there's still time
to rewrite the ending. Start by working on yourself first.
You'll find that if you wake up every morning trying
to be a little better, a little more curious, you
won't have time for irrational hating, you'll be too busy winning.

(01:32:16):
So he turned into a motivational speech for Steven A.
Well damn, and I gotta say, I can't believe he
got me rooting for a white man during Black History. Mouffle,
here we are.

Speaker 3 (01:32:28):
Jaz, Yes, I'm rooting for that white man.

Speaker 2 (01:32:31):
He was like, let me have the mic.

Speaker 1 (01:32:33):
Here we are. Who knew?

Speaker 2 (01:32:35):
He was like, y'all talk about my wife. I got
something to say.

Speaker 1 (01:32:39):
Alexis was already coming. But you know he was already
gonna be to him and the babies. He was already
gonna be there holding holding the babies by the tennis
court where Serena was holding served, you know, over there
by Naomi Osaka and Coco go off. He was gonna
be out death. But uh yeah, welcome. All right, y'all,

(01:33:16):
that's it for today.

Speaker 2 (01:33:17):
And you know he gonna want sweet tea too.

Speaker 1 (01:33:20):
That's it for today show. Thank you for listening.

Speaker 2 (01:33:22):
