a lot of activity in the ring, not a lot
of running, not a lot of heart.
Speaker 11 (07:35):
Frank came to fight. He was fighting a smart fight.
I will say that he was tagging uh Tank and
then's staying away from him.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
He knew that he couldn't play with that power.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
So he was running out of the corner, a lot
out of the look.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
You can't play with the dude when you know he
got power like that.

Now, they did have him on the score card, They
did have Frank Martin winning in the first three rounds,
but then there was a tremendous change eighth round when
just boom boom combination and that was a knockout. And
that was quite a knockout by the way, well well executed.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
When you think about a rapper, you think about adolescence,
about the single bachelor lifestyle, when you think about asap rocky,
you think about a playboy, pretty boy bris being thrown

And with's Khalifa, by the way, announced that he's expecting
a child with his girlfriend Amy Aguilar, So congratulations to
them too, and that is your ut when we come back,
we have under the radar. These are the stories that
are not necessarily in the headlines. They are flying under
the radar, but you definitely need to know about them.
It's way up news, just in.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
The news that relates to you. These stories are flying
under the radar.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
All right, it's way up. I'm here, Meno's here now,
Manu no maynas.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
That's right, we hear baby, And let's get into some
of these under the radar stories. So to Be had
its biggest month yet. They even beat Disney Plus and
so while other streaming services have rising prices, to Be
remains reliable.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
It has ads on it. But a lot of people have.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
TB and want to see some of these two B
shows and movies, and so shout out to them for
that they had. Back last year they had seventy four
million monthly active users and so they have an extensive,
extensive selection of content as well. All Right, I actually
have a show that's going to be on TV soon,
So I just that I point that out.
Speaker 11 (17:57):
It I'm on a couple of TV shows I know
you are, well, a couple of TV movies.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
And then have you heard of spaving? This is something
that people are saying is now dangerous. It's been a
whole study about spaving, and that is called spending to save.
That's what they call spaving, spending more money to save money.
So you know, it's like if you spend thirty dollars,
you could save five dollars, but maybe you were only
going to spend twenty, but now you want to spend
the extra ten dollars so you can save five dollars.
(18:24):
What is it that's called spaving, it's spending more and
so spaving spend in the news a lot lately, and
basically it's saying that a lot of people are spending
a lot more money than they intended to just to
try to save some.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Money because you're saving less though you're spending more to save.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
So now if you wouldn't have bought like the extra items,
now you're buying extra items that maybe you don't want,
you don't need, spending more money so that you can
save five dollars. You know, for example, so if something
is buy one, get one free, but you never intended
to get something. Now you're buying something full price so
you can get a second one free, whereas you could
have just bought one when it was at a discount
(19:02):
instead of doing that. And a lot of times they
jack up the prices when they actually want you to
spend more money to save.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
So when is.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Spaving a good deal spending to save? Is it something
you would buy anyway? Can you afford it? Would you
use all of it? Is it perishable? And do you
have space to store it?
Speaker 12 (19:17):
All?
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Right? A lot of times I do spaving up here.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I order a meal and sometimes I'll order the meals
that are buying one get one free so that other
people in the studio can eat. And that was a
good example of spaving for me. But then I feel
like there's more of a charge when it comes to
the delivery fee, so you end up paying for it
somehow someway. But there is definitely a psychology behind spaving.
Consumers like to think that they're saving money. You get
(19:40):
a temporary emotional high thinking you got a deal and

The Tony Awards war yesterday, so let's talk about some
of the winners. Best Musical was The Outsiders, Best Play
was Stereophonic. Also, Best Performance by an Actress and a
Leading Role in a Musical was Malia joy Moon for
Hell's Kitchen. That's Alicia Keys's play about her life in
(21:57):
Hell's Kitchen.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
And here's what Malia Joy Moon had to say.
Speaker 15 (22:00):
I'd like to dedicate this award to my parents' dad.
You've been working all your life.
Speaker 16 (22:06):
Mom.
Speaker 15 (22:06):
You came to America at seventeen and you've been surviving
ever since. And Hell's Kitchen is about a seventeen year
old on the cusp of a dream. I can't imagine
how many dreams deferred, how many sacrifices each of you
made to give me the life.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That I have today.
Speaker 15 (22:20):
So tonight, all I hope is that you just get
to celebrate.
Speaker 5 (22:26):
One of what block.
Speaker 11 (22:27):
Lisa Keys grew up in Hell's Kitchen. Yeah, because we're
not far from now.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yeah, we write by Hell's Kitchen. And here's what at
Lisha Keys had to stay on the red carpet.
Speaker 16 (22:34):
What's been beautiful about witnessing the development of Hell's Kitchen
is the way that so many of the songs you
may have thought you knew take on a whole other meaning,
and they take on a whole other connection. And I've
been even surprised myself by it because I thought I
wrote the song for a certain reason, and now listening
(22:55):
in today, it means something totally different.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Also, were youre noted with Alicia Keys for a surprise
performance of Empire State of Mind at the Tonys And
that song, by the way, recently hit one billion streams,
So congratulations to them for that. But I also want
to make sure that we shout out Kenny Leon because
he directed Pearly Victorious, and Carl Young also won for
Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in
(23:20):
a Play for that play, and he also directed Home,
which is in theaters right now, so congratulations to him.
He was up here the other day talking about everything
and Ja jaes African hair brading one for Best Costume
Design of a Play. I want to go see that
play as well. All right, may Sha, y'all take you
your butts over the Broadway when we come back. We
(23:40):
have no may no a Monday. I feel like you
haven't done one in a while.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
It's where y'all.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Don't let me come up on Mondays no more. You
want to know my name?
Speaker 3 (23:56):
All right?
Speaker 2 (23:57):
His way Angela yee, my guy Mano is here. You
know it's Monday, Monday. You know what time it is.
Needs you know, we just.
Speaker 11 (24:07):
Watched this Spectaclear fight and it got me thinking, Okay,
in life, sometimes you just gotta get knocked out.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
You gotta get knocked.
Speaker 11 (24:16):
Out sometimes sometimes sometimes See the thing is, the thing is,
life is gonna deal you blows, right. But when you
when you get knocked out in life, you get to
appreciate the comeback, the winds. You understand. You gotta roll
with the punches. You understand what I'm saying, because it's
not gonna always be a rosy day. It's not gonna
always be a you know, you're not gonna always be happy.
(24:37):
But you gotta like even the times when you're down,
you gotta, you gotta, you gotta take it in and
deal with it with grace.
Speaker 15 (24:44):
Right.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
You can't be complaining when it ain't going your way. Yes,
and they're gonna always go your way back.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
It's definitely not. You know what I realized watching that
fight too. Sometimes you gotta let people just tire themselves out.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
Somebody told me something real.
Speaker 11 (24:57):
Somebody, somebody told me something real interesting today, they said
all and you might have heard this saying I didn't.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
It says, love the life you live, and live the
life you love.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Okay, roll with the pun you live with the life
you love.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
It's a fact.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
But you're right about that. Sometimes we all have to
be able to take some else right. So if you don't,
because it's inevitable, if you do your whole life trying
to be undefeated and everything.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
Right, right, you can't. It's the main whether it's life right.
Speaker 11 (25:26):
So It's like, how else you gonna appreciate what it
feels like if you if you never felt what it
felt like to be on the ground, right, so you
get to appreciate what it feels like to be up?
Speaker 5 (25:37):
Okay a lot more?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
All right?
Speaker 5 (25:39):
I like that you understand?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
All right, Well, thank you for that Monday animation and
when they come back more inspiration. We have asked yee
eight hundred and two nine two fifty one fifty with
my Monday Renovation award winning advice giver.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Ma, No, it's way up this relationship for career advice.
Angela's dropping facts.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
You should know this is what's up its way. But Angela, Yeah,
I'm here alongside my award winning and we have Catuur
on the line.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
What's up Cotur? Yes it is? So what is your
question today?
Speaker 7 (26:16):
How do I overcome like feeling like I need support
in validation from others, Like I have so many goals
and things I want to do, but I feel a
little scared. But you're not gonna always get it. I
gotta be my.
Speaker 8 (26:27):
Own support, that's right.
Speaker 11 (26:29):
Got to be your own support. It gotta come for yourself,
and you can't be worrying about too much about what
other people doing. You just got to concentrate on yourself,
set your goals, believe in yourself, and just keep pushing.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
It ain't gonna happen by night. You just got to
keep going.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah, I think it's important to piggyback off of what
Mano said is to not have too many expectations from people.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
A lot of times, to support for what it is
that you do.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
May come from a stranger, and you need to get
yourself to a point where the support that you need
is not going to be dependent on just your inner circle.
It's nice when they do reappreciate that, but a lot
of times that's not what happens.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
What is it that you're trying to do?
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Just want to be better and I also want to
get into like the social media stuff, you know, YouTube.
Not an influencer, but I want to be able to
live my dreams instead of just you know, working jobs.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
I think you have to also have a plan, you know.
I think a lot of people do are like I
want to be. They see the success of other influencers,
they see money coming in, But what is the plan
and what is it that you love? You can't just
do it to want to make money, it has to
be other things that drive you.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
So what's the plan?
Speaker 7 (27:37):
And that's something that I need to do. Make a
plan and I guess follow it.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
See even now you're like, I guess, make a plan
and follow it. No, you need to say this is
something that I'm passionate about. I think that when we
try to do things just because we want to make
money or we don't want to have to work, that's
not how things work. You have to say this is
something I'm great at that I this is how I'm
going to hone my skills, is what I'm passionate about.
I love doing this, so let me figure out ways
(28:03):
to be better. And a lot of times that could
be taking a class on, you know, how to create
the best content, taking photography, like whatever it is that
you need to do. I think it's important because they
talk about mastering and mastering something, the amount of time
and hours that you put into something, because it's not
going to just happen.
Speaker 11 (28:18):
First, you've got to identify exactly what it is you
want to do.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
You know, because your family and friends and inner circle
may not support it because they're like, she don't even
really seem like she knows what she's doing. You got
to be very clear to yourself first and foremost of
what it is that you do. Can you can you
sum it up in one sentence what you're doing?
Speaker 5 (28:37):
Honestly?
Speaker 7 (28:38):
I can't. I just know I want to be a star,
and I know I don't want to be four.
Speaker 3 (28:42):
I know that what are you great at?
Speaker 7 (28:44):
I believe I'm great at like given advice and exact
because I need to take my own advice right exactly.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
No, I was laughing at something my friends said.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
But it feels like to me, it's just it feels
like you need to really reflect upon yourself and put
the work in. All right, You're not gonna get rich
and become a star and not putting it in the work.
A lot of times we don't see what people go
through behind the scenes, right, You just see.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
The results and not the journey.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
Right right, all right, I appreciate y'all so much.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Well, good luck to you, man.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
I hope that you call us back nine months from
now and you're like, guess what things are starting to happen?
Speaker 7 (29:25):
Thank y'all so much, y'all afternoons, all right.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
You too? All right? Well that was ask ye eight
hundred and two, ninety two fifty one fifty. You want
to be lit baby.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Now coming up, we have somebody who really figured out
what it was that he wanted to do, and to
be honest, it was a really difficult road. So Katur,
if you're still listening, you need to make sure you
pay attention to Chef Simpson.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
He owns the Simpson, which is.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
A restaurant in Brooklyn, right across the street from the Barclays,
but he does so much more than that, and his
journey was definitely definitely hard.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
All right, it's way.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Up, turn me up here we go up the It's
way up with Angela.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Ye, what's up? It's way up at Angela yee. I'm
Angela yee. My guy Mana is here and somebody we
both haven't common Yes, we both love his food, chef,
but when for Simpson is here?
Speaker 3 (30:11):
What's up? Chef Simpson?
Speaker 14 (30:13):
I am good, I am good. I'm so honored to
be up inside the building. I've been waiting for this moment.
Speaker 11 (30:19):
Angelie new manoun thing.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
The funny thing about that is as soon as you came,
I heard you was coming. I'm like, man Angela. You
did his show first of.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
All, I go over there all the time. That yeah,
to your restaurant, and his restaurant is very conveniently located
in an amazing space right across the street from the
Barclays on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, So it's kind of
like the go to place, and it's huge.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Food is amazing Caribbean food.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
You know, even knowing your story and how you went
to school and you learned how to cook and then
Royal Caribbean Cruise right you were working on there, worked
your way up to sue Chef.
Speaker 14 (30:52):
My story is coming from homeless, is coming from poverty,
It's coming from three times suicide attempt. When I used
to live on Tremont Avenue, I remember going at the
number two train station and stand there making up my
mind to throw myself in front of what that was
when I first what put me in that place and
(31:13):
that frame I remember when I first came here. You know,
you come here, you're under the radar, you're trying to
just get by. And that was when my daughter was
just born and I was about to get evicted. It
was very hard to get a job and just going
through so much, and I felt like there was no
way out because everywhere you go.
Speaker 8 (31:31):
You're under the radar? Are you?
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I have to say the radar is it? Because you
were from I was from Jamaica.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
No papers right now, mayno and I are talking to
Chef Simpson, the owner of the Simpson Restaurant, and just my.
Speaker 14 (31:43):
Life overall, because here you are coming from Jamaica. You
don't grow up with your father, you're homeless.
Speaker 5 (31:50):
From school.
Speaker 14 (31:51):
It's like you ask yourself, like God, what's next. I'm like,
something gotta give, Like at what point the sufferation stop?
At that time, I was like twenty five or something,
and I'm like, I'm still going through it. I'm going
through it from I was going to the neighbor's house.
And that's what's how I got into cooking. I got
into cooking all the poverty, going to the neighborhouse and
beg for food. And I remember that time. I was
(32:13):
like ten eleven, and there's this lady by the name
of missus Gloria that lived next door to us. And
every time they cook, I find myself always have to
wash up their dishes, sweep up the yard, beat a
little yard boy for them. So this way I can
get some of the food that they have left over.
So that was kind of how I fell in love
(32:34):
with cooking, from when I would stand at the back
doorstep and I would watch the family eat and see
all it brings family together, and I say, you know what,
I want to spend the rest of my life recreating that.
So when people come to my restaurant and I watch
them sit down and eat and enjoy and laugh and talk,
I'm seeing something that I never had a home happening
(32:56):
in front of me. And that's how I got into cooking.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Right, And you are very president at the restaurant, and
even before that, you've also been a private chef.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
Yes, for some huge people like the Obamas.
Speaker 14 (33:09):
The Obamas, I've been to the White House twice, cook
for Illara Clinton.
Speaker 8 (33:13):
I cooked for Michelle and Barack.
Speaker 14 (33:15):
Jay Z and beyond jay Z and Beyonce, Rick Cross, May, No, Angela,
you name it.
Speaker 8 (33:21):
I've cooked for over four hundred celebrities.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
All Right, Chef Simpson is here.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
He has his restaurant in Brooklyn, he has one that
just opened in Atlantic City, and he has more on
the way. And will be talking to him about everything
he went through to get here when we come back.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
It's way up.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
Yeah, turn me up here, we go up there. This
is way up with Angela.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Ye, what's up? His way up with Angela? He I'm here,
my guy Mana is here. And a restaurant that we
both love to go to, the Simpson, the owner, Chef
Simpson is in the building. With all these different opportunities,
obviously there's also more responsibilities.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
But mentally, how do you feel now?
Speaker 8 (33:57):
Mentally I think I'm okay.
Speaker 14 (33:59):
Sometimes I don't think I am Sometimes I'll stop on
the side of the street and shed a tears and
then go back into traffic.
Speaker 11 (34:05):
When you do feel as though you don't have the
time to grieve or you don't have that luxury.
Speaker 13 (34:15):
No.
Speaker 14 (34:16):
I was talking to someone yesterday and the person said
to me, he said, Patrick, you know what I realized
different about your different talking to you. I hear strength,
I hear resilient. Because I look at it, I'm like,
I don't have a choice. You see that I'm gonna
swim or I'm gonna sing. From someone who was getting
a one shot deal to say from being homeless on
(34:39):
my block where I live in Long Island, I own
the biggest house on the block. So even for me
driving home, it still don't dawn on me.
Speaker 11 (34:49):
So that feeling that you feel inside, do you feel
accomplished or do you still feel like it's just so
much more to get.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
I feel accomplished, but I think something is missing.
Speaker 14 (35:00):
Something is missing because to me, I asked myself, I'm like, God,
am I a sacrificial lamb? Because here I am now
going to have one hundred and that staff. Everything that
I went through throughout my life, I felt like he
was building me for tough, for everything I'm dealing with
now and be able to stay sane dealing with it.
So to me, it's like everything that is on me
(35:22):
right now is so much bigger than me. Right I'm representing,
I'm carrying Jamaica on my.
Speaker 8 (35:29):
That it can happen.
Speaker 14 (35:31):
It's a lot of responsibility and a lot of people
look up to me to say if he.
Speaker 8 (35:36):
Can do it, that means we can do it.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
Inspiration.
Speaker 14 (35:39):
I'm inspiring so many people opening culinary school in Jamaica.
My way of giving back and paying it forward.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Right now, Mayno and I are talking to Chef Simpson,
the owner of the Simpson Restaurant, and the last thing
I want to talk about is that you also do
cook with with celebrities and notable people.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
You have your own show.
Speaker 14 (35:57):
As a chef. I'm reaching out to the Food network.
I'm reading to all these Caucasian cooking show trying to
get on. No one responds to your email, No one
out of knowledge or nothing. So I say, you know what,
We're going to start my own shoes right and little
by little Love there at bb Kingdom, cooking with a
little cutting board, and I have the guests next to
me and I'm cooking.
Speaker 8 (36:17):

Speaker 8 (36:36):

you and also support you.

To Davis versus Frank Martin Man. When I tell you
that fight, that was a good fight. It was very active.
That's what I like to see. I like to see
a lot of activity in the ring, not a lot
of running, not a lot of heart.
Speaker 11 (07:35):
Frank came to fight. He was fighting a smart fight.
I will say that he was tagging uh Tank and
then's staying away from him.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
He knew that he couldn't play with that power.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
So he was running out of the corner, a lot
out of the look.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
You can't play with the dude when you know he
got power like that.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Now, they did have him on the score card, They
did have Frank Martin winning in the first three rounds,
but then there was a tremendous change eighth round when
just boom boom combination and that was a knockout. And
that was quite a knockout by the way, well well executed.
Here's what Davante Davis had to say in the press
conference after the fight.
Speaker 8 (08:11):
A lot of people had him winning early on. He
definitely was, you know, throwing them on punches. My whole
thing was to you know what I mean, let him
tie hisself out. I knew he was gonna tie hisself out.
That's that was the whole game plan.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Well, it worked and you could see it happening.

But he did get his face touched, so I was
getting a little concern, but I was.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
The player persona is very pushed.
Speaker 2 (16:30):

And with's Khalifa, by the way, announced that he's expecting
a child with his girlfriend Amy Aguilar, So congratulations to
them too, and that is your ut when we come back,
we have under the radar. These are the stories that
are not necessarily in the headlines. They are flying under
the radar, but you definitely need to know about them.
It's way up news, just in.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
The news that relates to you. These stories are flying
under the radar.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
All right, it's way up. I'm here, Meno's here now,
Manu no maynas.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
That's right, we hear baby, And let's get into some
of these under the radar stories. So to Be had
its biggest month yet. They even beat Disney Plus and
so while other streaming services have rising prices, to Be
remains reliable.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
It has ads on it. But a lot of people have.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
TB and want to see some of these two B
shows and movies, and so shout out to them for
that they had. Back last year they had seventy four
million monthly active users and so they have an extensive,
extensive selection of content as well. All Right, I actually
have a show that's going to be on TV soon,
So I just that I point that out.
Speaker 11 (17:57):
It I'm on a couple of TV shows I know
you are, well, a couple of TV movies.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
And then have you heard of spaving? This is something
that people are saying is now dangerous. It's been a
whole study about spaving, and that is called spending to save.
That's what they call spaving, spending more money to save money.
So you know, it's like if you spend thirty dollars,
you could save five dollars, but maybe you were only
going to spend twenty, but now you want to spend
the extra ten dollars so you can save five dollars.
(18:24):
What is it that's called spaving, it's spending more and
so spaving spend in the news a lot lately, and
basically it's saying that a lot of people are spending
a lot more money than they intended to just to
try to save some.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Money because you're saving less though you're spending more to save.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
So now if you wouldn't have bought like the extra items,
now you're buying extra items that maybe you don't want,
you don't need, spending more money so that you can
save five dollars. You know, for example, so if something
is buy one, get one free, but you never intended
to get something. Now you're buying something full price so
you can get a second one free, whereas you could
have just bought one when it was at a discount
(19:02):
instead of doing that. And a lot of times they
jack up the prices when they actually want you to
spend more money to save.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
So when is.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Spaving a good deal spending to save? Is it something
you would buy anyway? Can you afford it? Would you
use all of it? Is it perishable? And do you
have space to store it?
Speaker 12 (19:17):
All?
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Right? A lot of times I do spaving up here.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I order a meal and sometimes I'll order the meals
that are buying one get one free so that other
people in the studio can eat. And that was a
good example of spaving for me. But then I feel
like there's more of a charge when it comes to
the delivery fee, so you end up paying for it
somehow someway. But there is definitely a psychology behind spaving.
Consumers like to think that they're saving money. You get
(19:40):
a temporary emotional high thinking you got a deal and
so there you have it, all right, Well, that is
you're under the radar. Now you know we have the
way it mixed at the top of the hour on
a Monday. Plus there's no saving at the Simpson that
we got Chef Simpson coming through. He is the owner
of the Simpson, a restaurant that both Mano and myself
frequent pulls up, and he just opened a new one

Speaker 3 (21:31):
Listen? B Street on Broadway. That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
We are all going to see that and speaking our Broadway.
The Tony Awards war yesterday, so let's talk about some
of the winners. Best Musical was The Outsiders, Best Play
was Stereophonic. Also, Best Performance by an Actress and a
Leading Role in a Musical was Malia joy Moon for
Hell's Kitchen. That's Alicia Keys's play about her life in
(21:57):
Hell's Kitchen.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
And here's what Malia Joy Moon had to say.
Speaker 15 (22:00):
I'd like to dedicate this award to my parents' dad.
You've been working all your life.
Speaker 16 (22:06):
Mom.
Speaker 15 (22:06):
You came to America at seventeen and you've been surviving
ever since. And Hell's Kitchen is about a seventeen year
old on the cusp of a dream. I can't imagine
how many dreams deferred, how many sacrifices each of you
made to give me the life.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That I have today.
Speaker 15 (22:20):
So tonight, all I hope is that you just get
to celebrate.
Speaker 5 (22:26):
One of what block.
Speaker 11 (22:27):
Lisa Keys grew up in Hell's Kitchen. Yeah, because we're
not far from now.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yeah, we write by Hell's Kitchen. And here's what at
Lisha Keys had to stay on the red carpet.
Speaker 16 (22:34):
What's been beautiful about witnessing the development of Hell's Kitchen
is the way that so many of the songs you
may have thought you knew take on a whole other meaning,
and they take on a whole other connection. And I've
been even surprised myself by it because I thought I
wrote the song for a certain reason, and now listening
(22:55):
in today, it means something totally different.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Also, were youre noted with Alicia Keys for a surprise
performance of Empire State of Mind at the Tonys And
that song, by the way, recently hit one billion streams,
So congratulations to them for that. But I also want
to make sure that we shout out Kenny Leon because
he directed Pearly Victorious, and Carl Young also won for
Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in
(23:20):
a Play for that play, and he also directed Home,
which is in theaters right now, so congratulations to him.
He was up here the other day talking about everything
and Ja jaes African hair brading one for Best Costume
Design of a Play. I want to go see that
play as well. All right, may Sha, y'all take you
your butts over the Broadway when we come back. We
(23:40):
have no may no a Monday. I feel like you
haven't done one in a while.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
It's where y'all.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Don't let me come up on Mondays no more. You
want to know my name?
Speaker 3 (23:56):
All right?
Speaker 2 (23:57):
His way Angela yee, my guy Mano is here. You
know it's Monday, Monday. You know what time it is.
Needs you know, we just.
Speaker 11 (24:07):
Watched this Spectaclear fight and it got me thinking, Okay,
in life, sometimes you just gotta get knocked out.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
You gotta get knocked.
Speaker 11 (24:16):
Out sometimes sometimes sometimes See the thing is, the thing is,
life is gonna deal you blows, right. But when you
when you get knocked out in life, you get to
appreciate the comeback, the winds. You understand. You gotta roll
with the punches. You understand what I'm saying, because it's
not gonna always be a rosy day. It's not gonna
always be a you know, you're not gonna always be happy.
(24:37):
But you gotta like even the times when you're down,
you gotta, you gotta, you gotta take it in and
deal with it with grace.
Speaker 15 (24:44):
Right.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
You can't be complaining when it ain't going your way. Yes,
and they're gonna always go your way back.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
It's definitely not. You know what I realized watching that
fight too. Sometimes you gotta let people just tire themselves out.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
Somebody told me something real.
Speaker 11 (24:57):
Somebody, somebody told me something real interesting today, they said
all and you might have heard this saying I didn't.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
It says, love the life you live, and live the
life you love.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Okay, roll with the pun you live with the life
you love.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
It's a fact.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
But you're right about that. Sometimes we all have to
be able to take some else right. So if you don't,
because it's inevitable, if you do your whole life trying
to be undefeated and everything.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
Right, right, you can't. It's the main whether it's life right.
Speaker 11 (25:26):
So It's like, how else you gonna appreciate what it
feels like if you if you never felt what it
felt like to be on the ground, right, so you
get to appreciate what it feels like to be up?
Speaker 5 (25:37):
Okay a lot more?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
All right?
Speaker 5 (25:39):
I like that you understand?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
All right, Well, thank you for that Monday animation and
when they come back more inspiration. We have asked yee
eight hundred and two nine two fifty one fifty with
my Monday Renovation award winning advice giver.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Ma, No, it's way up this relationship for career advice.
Angela's dropping facts.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
You should know this is what's up its way. But Angela, Yeah,
I'm here alongside my award winning and we have Catuur
on the line.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
What's up Cotur? Yes it is? So what is your
question today?
Speaker 7 (26:16):
How do I overcome like feeling like I need support
in validation from others, Like I have so many goals
and things I want to do, but I feel a
little scared. But you're not gonna always get it. I
gotta be my.
Speaker 8 (26:27):
Own support, that's right.
Speaker 11 (26:29):
Got to be your own support. It gotta come for yourself,
and you can't be worrying about too much about what
other people doing. You just got to concentrate on yourself,
set your goals, believe in yourself, and just keep pushing.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
It ain't gonna happen by night. You just got to
keep going.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah, I think it's important to piggyback off of what
Mano said is to not have too many expectations from people.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
A lot of times, to support for what it is
that you do.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
May come from a stranger, and you need to get
yourself to a point where the support that you need
is not going to be dependent on just your inner circle.
It's nice when they do reappreciate that, but a lot
of times that's not what happens.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
What is it that you're trying to do?
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Just want to be better and I also want to
get into like the social media stuff, you know, YouTube.
Not an influencer, but I want to be able to
live my dreams instead of just you know, working jobs.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
I think you have to also have a plan, you know.
I think a lot of people do are like I
want to be. They see the success of other influencers,
they see money coming in, But what is the plan
and what is it that you love? You can't just
do it to want to make money, it has to
be other things that drive you.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
So what's the plan?
Speaker 7 (27:37):
And that's something that I need to do. Make a
plan and I guess follow it.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
See even now you're like, I guess, make a plan
and follow it. No, you need to say this is
something that I'm passionate about. I think that when we
try to do things just because we want to make
money or we don't want to have to work, that's
not how things work. You have to say this is
something I'm great at that I this is how I'm
going to hone my skills, is what I'm passionate about.
I love doing this, so let me figure out ways
(28:03):
to be better. And a lot of times that could
be taking a class on, you know, how to create
the best content, taking photography, like whatever it is that
you need to do. I think it's important because they
talk about mastering and mastering something, the amount of time
and hours that you put into something, because it's not
going to just happen.
Speaker 11 (28:18):
First, you've got to identify exactly what it is you
want to do.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
You know, because your family and friends and inner circle
may not support it because they're like, she don't even
really seem like she knows what she's doing. You got
to be very clear to yourself first and foremost of
what it is that you do. Can you can you
sum it up in one sentence what you're doing?
Speaker 5 (28:37):
Honestly?
Speaker 7 (28:38):
I can't. I just know I want to be a star,
and I know I don't want to be four.
Speaker 3 (28:42):
I know that what are you great at?
Speaker 7 (28:44):
I believe I'm great at like given advice and exact
because I need to take my own advice right exactly.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
No, I was laughing at something my friends said.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
But it feels like to me, it's just it feels
like you need to really reflect upon yourself and put
the work in. All right, You're not gonna get rich
and become a star and not putting it in the work.
A lot of times we don't see what people go
through behind the scenes, right, You just see.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
The results and not the journey.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
Right right, all right, I appreciate y'all so much.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Well, good luck to you, man.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
I hope that you call us back nine months from
now and you're like, guess what things are starting to happen?
Speaker 7 (29:25):
Thank y'all so much, y'all afternoons, all right.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
You too? All right? Well that was ask ye eight
hundred and two, ninety two fifty one fifty. You want
to be lit baby.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Now coming up, we have somebody who really figured out
what it was that he wanted to do, and to
be honest, it was a really difficult road. So Katur,
if you're still listening, you need to make sure you
pay attention to Chef Simpson.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
He owns the Simpson, which is.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
A restaurant in Brooklyn, right across the street from the Barclays,
but he does so much more than that, and his
journey was definitely definitely hard.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
All right, it's way.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Up, turn me up here we go up the It's
way up with Angela.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Ye, what's up? It's way up at Angela yee. I'm
Angela yee. My guy Mana is here and somebody we
both haven't common Yes, we both love his food, chef,
but when for Simpson is here?
Speaker 3 (30:11):
What's up? Chef Simpson?
Speaker 14 (30:13):
I am good, I am good. I'm so honored to
be up inside the building. I've been waiting for this moment.
Speaker 11 (30:19):
Angelie new manoun thing.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
The funny thing about that is as soon as you came,
I heard you was coming. I'm like, man Angela. You
did his show first of.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
All, I go over there all the time. That yeah,
to your restaurant, and his restaurant is very conveniently located
in an amazing space right across the street from the
Barclays on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, So it's kind of
like the go to place, and it's huge.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Food is amazing Caribbean food.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
You know, even knowing your story and how you went
to school and you learned how to cook and then
Royal Caribbean Cruise right you were working on there, worked
your way up to sue Chef.
Speaker 14 (30:52):
My story is coming from homeless, is coming from poverty,
It's coming from three times suicide attempt. When I used
to live on Tremont Avenue, I remember going at the
number two train station and stand there making up my
mind to throw myself in front of what that was
when I first what put me in that place and
(31:13):
that frame I remember when I first came here. You know,
you come here, you're under the radar, you're trying to
just get by. And that was when my daughter was
just born and I was about to get evicted. It
was very hard to get a job and just going
through so much, and I felt like there was no
way out because everywhere you go.
Speaker 8 (31:31):
You're under the radar? Are you?
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I have to say the radar is it? Because you
were from I was from Jamaica.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
No papers right now, mayno and I are talking to
Chef Simpson, the owner of the Simpson Restaurant, and just my.
Speaker 14 (31:43):
Life overall, because here you are coming from Jamaica. You
don't grow up with your father, you're homeless.
Speaker 5 (31:50):
From school.
Speaker 14 (31:51):
It's like you ask yourself, like God, what's next. I'm like,
something gotta give, Like at what point the sufferation stop?
At that time, I was like twenty five or something,
and I'm like, I'm still going through it. I'm going
through it from I was going to the neighbor's house.
And that's what's how I got into cooking. I got
into cooking all the poverty, going to the neighborhouse and
beg for food. And I remember that time. I was
(32:13):
like ten eleven, and there's this lady by the name
of missus Gloria that lived next door to us. And
every time they cook, I find myself always have to
wash up their dishes, sweep up the yard, beat a
little yard boy for them. So this way I can
get some of the food that they have left over.
So that was kind of how I fell in love
(32:34):
with cooking, from when I would stand at the back
doorstep and I would watch the family eat and see
all it brings family together, and I say, you know what,
I want to spend the rest of my life recreating that.
So when people come to my restaurant and I watch
them sit down and eat and enjoy and laugh and talk,
I'm seeing something that I never had a home happening
(32:56):
in front of me. And that's how I got into cooking.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Right, And you are very president at the restaurant, and
even before that, you've also been a private chef.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
Yes, for some huge people like the Obamas.
Speaker 14 (33:09):
The Obamas, I've been to the White House twice, cook
for Illara Clinton.
Speaker 8 (33:13):
I cooked for Michelle and Barack.
Speaker 14 (33:15):
Jay Z and beyond jay Z and Beyonce, Rick Cross, May, No, Angela,
you name it.
Speaker 8 (33:21):
I've cooked for over four hundred celebrities.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
All Right, Chef Simpson is here.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
He has his restaurant in Brooklyn, he has one that
just opened in Atlantic City, and he has more on
the way. And will be talking to him about everything
he went through to get here when we come back.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
It's way up.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
Yeah, turn me up here, we go up there. This
is way up with Angela.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Ye, what's up? His way up with Angela? He I'm here,
my guy Mana is here. And a restaurant that we
both love to go to, the Simpson, the owner, Chef
Simpson is in the building. With all these different opportunities,
obviously there's also more responsibilities.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
But mentally, how do you feel now?
Speaker 8 (33:57):
Mentally I think I'm okay.
Speaker 14 (33:59):
Sometimes I don't think I am Sometimes I'll stop on
the side of the street and shed a tears and
then go back into traffic.
Speaker 11 (34:05):
When you do feel as though you don't have the
time to grieve or you don't have that luxury.
Speaker 13 (34:15):
No.
Speaker 14 (34:16):
I was talking to someone yesterday and the person said
to me, he said, Patrick, you know what I realized
different about your different talking to you. I hear strength,
I hear resilient. Because I look at it, I'm like,
I don't have a choice. You see that I'm gonna
swim or I'm gonna sing. From someone who was getting
a one shot deal to say from being homeless on
(34:39):
my block where I live in Long Island, I own
the biggest house on the block. So even for me
driving home, it still don't dawn on me.
Speaker 11 (34:49):
So that feeling that you feel inside, do you feel
accomplished or do you still feel like it's just so
much more to get.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
I feel accomplished, but I think something is missing.
Speaker 14 (35:00):
Something is missing because to me, I asked myself, I'm like, God,
am I a sacrificial lamb? Because here I am now
going to have one hundred and that staff. Everything that
I went through throughout my life, I felt like he
was building me for tough, for everything I'm dealing with
now and be able to stay sane dealing with it.
So to me, it's like everything that is on me
(35:22):
right now is so much bigger than me. Right I'm representing,
I'm carrying Jamaica on my.
Speaker 8 (35:29):
That it can happen.
Speaker 14 (35:31):
It's a lot of responsibility and a lot of people
look up to me to say if he.
Speaker 8 (35:36):
Can do it, that means we can do it.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
Inspiration.
Speaker 14 (35:39):
I'm inspiring so many people opening culinary school in Jamaica.
My way of giving back and paying it forward.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
Right now, Mayno and I are talking to Chef Simpson,
the owner of the Simpson Restaurant, and the last thing
I want to talk about is that you also do
cook with with celebrities and notable people.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
You have your own show.
Speaker 14 (35:57):
As a chef. I'm reaching out to the Food network.
I'm reading to all these Caucasian cooking show trying to
get on. No one responds to your email, No one
out of knowledge or nothing. So I say, you know what,
We're going to start my own shoes right and little
by little Love there at bb Kingdom, cooking with a
little cutting board, and I have the guests next to

Speaker 8 (36:36):

Speaker 2 (36:46):

you and also support you.
