We have a YETI and Takashi six nine is all
in it all right. It's way up with Angela yee.
She's like to talk like a angela yee, like a
Angela yee. She's spilling it all. This is yet Yes,
(06:37):
it's way up with Angela. Ye I'm angela yee. Jasmine
brand is here from the Jasmine Brand, you know that
entertainment site. Good morning, Good morning, And let's start with
Takashi six nine because I saw this everywhere. He was
severely beaten and attacked in a gym sauna and rushed
to the hospital. This was in South Florida. Okay, So
he was in the gym, inside the sauna and this
(06:57):
was an LA Fitness when all of a sudden he
was then a packed by several guys. There was no warning.
They just don't like snitches, I guess, okay, I mean,
I think that's what it said on one of them, Like,
you know, that's what they said. Jim Staff heard the commotion,
they notified a manager. That's when the police and ems
were called to the scene and he was taken to
(07:17):
the hospital and an ambulance. So you can see the
damage is pretty bad and you see his face and
so there's video online you can see part of that attack.
You can see him getting hit while he's trying to
defend his face. Right, we don't know what happened, what, why,
what could be anything? Right, It's always been amazing to
(07:37):
me though, with everything that he's done and the trolling
that he's done. Nothing ever like this has happened. We know,
it's just a dangerous game to play, right, I would
be like, always have security with me if I was
kind of like him, you know. So I'm kind of surprised.
Maybe he does. He's just going to the gym and
I'm finding the gym. I don't know, but apparently not.
So I'm sure he'll have something to say after all
of this, because for some people, the tension. Yeah, all right, now,
(08:01):
let's talk about John Morant. He participated Tuesday in his
first practice with the Grizzlies following me that eight game suspension,
and then he actually is planning to make his return
today in the home game against the Houston Rockets. He
did spend eleven days in a Florida counseling facility after
that video on Instagram library he was holding a gun,
which he said wasn't his right. And so here's what
(08:23):
he had to say about people believing that he was
having some type of issues with hennessy and expensive to
kill and why he went to a counseling facility. Guy,
how much do you think alcohol has influenced your decision?
I don't got an alcohol problem, never how to alcohol passion.
I didn't go there for alcohol. When your counsel to
(08:43):
learn how to you know, manage stress, cope with stressing,
you know, a positive way, selling, you know ways how
you know, try to deal with it. Before that they'll
cause me to make now the statement from the league
when they announced his suspension, the Commissioner Adam Silver determined
that John Morant wasn't an ataxic cad state when he
did that Instagram live session. But like you hear right here,
(09:04):
John Maran said he does not have an issue with alcohol.
He did deactivate his Instagram and Twitter for a period
of time, but he is back on and he said
he's not going to be out like he was or
be as active on social media, and that clubbing and
all is not on his mind right now. I did
think they said that he had a hand as problem
within the say that. I don't know where it came from. Yeah, okay,
(09:26):
all right. Now, the weekend has set the Guinness record
for the world's most popular artist. Wow. Officially, he just
broke two new records on Spotify. One was for most
monthly listeners in Spotify history and that's at the one
hundred eleven million mark. And another is the first artist
to breach the one hundred million monthly listeners mark in general.
So it's official. He's he's the world's most popular artist. Okay,
(09:50):
I don't know that. I really listened to am I
think you are. I thought he was one of your
favorite artists. He did not think that. Okay, okay, all right,
and Rolling Loud New York City had it has been
canceled this year due to quote logistical factors. According to
festival organizers, they made the announcement yesterday the festival will
not be returning to New York City this year. They said,
for the last few years, we've made some legendary moments
(10:13):
happening queens. Sadly, due to logistical factors beyond our control,
Rolling Loud will not return to New York in twenty
twenty three, but organizers did say it will return at
a later date. It's not goodbye, it's more like see
you later, okay, alligator, So they say, come come to
Miami July twenty first, with the twenty third. Yeah, they're
gonna have their biggest, best festival of the year. So
(10:34):
now they can focus on that. Have you ever been
to a Rolling Loud Angelo, No, I have not, but yeah,
well people love it. Yeah, and if y'all recall it,
last year they canceled some artists like Ron Suno who
was up here thal artists, right, Yeah, they didn't let
them take the stage. Yeah, all right, Well that is
your yet. And when we come back, we do have
about last night. Now, what is about last night? Well,
(10:54):
that's when we talk about things that we did last night.
And you guys, I'm sure we'll find a lot of
this quite relatable. Okay, So, whether that's a TV show
we watched the movie, we went to some music that
we listened to or maybe something that we feel like
we just want to share about last night when we
come back. It's way up with Angela. Ye. Yes, so
at last night night, Yes, it is way up with
(11:20):
Angela Yee. I'm here. I'm Angela Yee. And Jasmine from
the Jasmine brand is here. Yes, I'm here now. Yesterday
we had to handle some business. We did a lot
of events coming up, so did a little shopping. And
you know, I'm a very h am I a frugal person. No, Angela,
I am a fool. Everybody's shaking their head. No, No,
you're a little more frugal than I am. But let
(11:40):
me tell you something that I did that I need
to do more often. Right, Sometimes I buy things and
if they don't fit right or I don't use it,
I don't return them in time. Okay. So this particular time,
I bought a few different things and then I went
to return this dress because I found it somewhere else
less expensive. Right, So why did I go and return
the dress that I didn't wear? Had the tags done?
(12:00):
It's still in everything, Okay. And they sent me an
email from the store saying it appears that this dress
has been worn, and therefore you have to come and
pick it up. But we're not refunding your money. That
you never happened to me before. And and it's a
store I shop at all the time and I never
return anything there, right, And I'm very offended. What are
you going to site in response? Or are you going
(12:21):
to respond or what are you gonna do? I did respond,
and they have not responded back. I responded two days ago,
and I think I'm gonna have to contact I don't
know what to do now, right. This has never happened
to me before where I try to return something and
it didn't work. And I get it, like people buy things,
wear it and then return them, but I don't even
return things that I should return. And then the one
time I'm like, let me be responsible and start being
(12:42):
more frugal, and then I want to go return something
and it didn't work. Yes, frustrating because you didn't do
anything wrong. Yeah, yeah, So what do I do now?
I don't because I actually did return it. I got
the receipt with the refund. The tags are on there.
They said it smells like perfume and it appears to
have been worn in an event. There's not thing on
it that looks like it's been worn at an event.
(13:02):
First of all, I don't like that language, Like, how
do you what makes you think I wore it at
an event? I'm gonna lie. I was offended. And then
I started to feel like, why did they just do that?
And especially at a place where you spend money all
the time? Right? Yeah? So now the customer service thing
is a point in that. Would I go back there
ever again? And my boycotting this store? Yeah, what are
we gonna do? Because you really like that store? I
(13:24):
don't know. I'm gonna have to call this person. I
don't know what to do. Should I contact the manager?
What do I do? Yeah? Somebody help. I think you
probably should contact the manager. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie.
It was offended. Have you ever been so offended when
you went somewhere that you're like, I'm never going back
there again? Yeah? Yeah, restaurant clothing store? Yeah, but I
always end up going back there. See, I want boycott
(13:45):
a place. And because I'm gonna tell y'all something, we
have power, we have options. We do have power and options.
Are you going to exercise those? Is what I want
to know because our money matters, you know what I'm saying,
And we spend a lot of money. And this is
a place where I really have been going to for
probably like twenty years. Has never happened to me anywhere before.
You should have a conversation with the manager. I'm sure
(14:06):
they don't want to. They don't want to lose you
as a as a customer either. But then I also
feel like seeing everything that's been happening, like in the news,
but luxury retailers and things like that, and they're like,
we don't care, Like you know, sometimes I feel like
now more than ever, customer service in some of these
luxury places is kind of slacking, and it is interesting.
You need to note that this was a luxury store.
(14:27):
That's why it wasn't Yeah, yeah, it definitely was. And yeah,
all right, well yeah, there you have it. Now. You
also did some chopping in. I'm gonna tell you what
you do that sometimes? Yeah, what do I do? You
take a long? I'm a very like if I like something,
I buy it, right, do you think about it really hard?
I do? And then you leave and you feel like, man,
(14:47):
I should have bought that well, because my thing is
if I leave and then I feel like I need
to come back and get it. I'll get it. But
I did some sneakers I really thought I didn't need
because I kept getting everything black yesterday and I'll regret
not getting them. But I am. I'm frugal and something.
I have a number in my mind when I go
shopping and I'm like, I don't want to go past this,
which you didn't. I didn't go past my number yesterday.
(15:08):
But then I had in a number for sneakers I
didn't want to go past and this was this was
exceeding my number. And you know, this morning I woke
up like I should have got those sneakers. Reach Out
therapy is a real thing. It is like when things
are teugh in life, you feel like I just need
to go. And I know everybody and I talk about
this too. I talk about finances all the time and
being responsible. Yeah, and sometimes I go the other way
(15:30):
and I say, hey, don't cheat yourself, cheat yourself well.
And also, you know, you know, I was thinking about
doing another justify anything. I was thinking about doing another investment.
So then I was like, Okay, maybe I'm gonna do this.
First of all, the amount of the sneakers has nothing
to do with the amount of what this. Yeah, so
you know, guys, I will say, um, customer service is important.
Now my friend is texting me, She's like, what store?
(15:50):
Was it right? But yeah, I think I'm gonna try
to call. I'll keep y'all updated. I'm gonna try to
call the store, talk to my manager and see what
happens and then take it from there and maybe maybe
I'll text this woman and get these sneakers. Okay, Well,

try to judge what other people's lives are like or
what they should be wanting to do, or what their
ambition should be. Right, But sometimes loving your family or
whatever it is that you have going on, or sometimes
being single. You know, I saw people judging Ashanti for
being on vacation, right, and she stay on vacation. I'm jealous. Yeah,
I'm actually jealous. But she looks like she's having a
(24:23):
great time and a great life. Who are we to say, well,
why don't you have this? Why don't you have that? Right?
So I think that as long as a person is
happy doing what they do from the outside looking in,
you can't say what should make them happy? Right Angel?
Are you happy? Yeah? I am, that's right. I am.
I'm a pretty happy person. What about you. I'm getting there? Yeah, yes,
I'm working progress and I still have days and I
(24:43):
think sometimes you think, oh, what if I would have
done this or what if my life would have been
like this? But I'm every day. We say it's a blessing. Yeah,
I just want to be at peace, you know what
I mean? All right now. Jacole also said that he
started smoking when he was sixty years old? Who six
years old? I was smoking cigarettes regularly around the neighborhood.
(25:04):
The thing was, uh, my brothers four years older than me,
almost four years he's smoking too. No, that's the wild thing.
It was just I was always hanging around the older
kids in the neighborhood that he was hanging around, and
they were smoking, and I was young and fearless and
trying to be cool. So it was like, oh, y'all smoking, Like,
let me see that six years old is crazy? Do
(25:26):
you want to hear something? So my um, when I
was growing up, there was a young girl who looked
across the street for me when we were in elementary school, okay,
and her dad actually smoked cigarettes so much he actually
ended up getting lung cancer and passing from that. But
he would send us to the store to get Carton's
and cigarettes, okay, and we would take a box and
(25:47):
smoke it at the serious parking lot. How Oaks. I
was in elementary school. What grade do you think you
were in? Maybe like third? So you were in third
grade smoking Newports? Wasn't Newport? Now? He smoke Marlboroughs? Yeah,
And so yes, I did smoke, and I didn't really
like it, but it just felt like a cooling. Okay,
but I'm kind of glad I did that and got
(26:07):
it out the way because I didn't really like it.
But sometimes you just do things. Yeah. Shout out to
Jaicole six years old. Okay, I know my parents listen,
Yes to happen. I wasn't allowed to do. Is there
was a guy that's so hot dogs there and you know,
I was never allowed to buy hot dogs from the
street vendors, really on the street, and it was it
actually is really disgusting because it's like sitting in boiling water.
(26:28):
Where does he pee? Where does he wash his hands?
And his hands were filthy, yeah and so, and they
were a dollar And I would definitely go and buy
a hot dog sometimes. I definitely have hot dogs off
off the street. Yeah, we call that street meet here. Yeah, okay,
all right. Well, Jamie Fox was targeted in a forty
thousand dollars scam on the film set of his movie
Back in Action. Okay, and it Tim and Cameron Diaz.
(26:49):
By the way, Cameron Diaz is back on the on
the screen, but it looks like she might be gone again.
So they said this employee has been possibly involved in
past attempted scams involving wealthy celebrities, and police may have
been called to the set of Back in Action over this.
They said the film has been a bit of a nightmare.
They were film delays due to bad weather in London
and a few employees getting fired. They said there were
(27:12):
some investigations. Somebody tried to get some cash from Jamie Fox,
about forty thousand dollars. They tried to offer up a
Rolex Watch as part of the deal. But now there's
an investigation into everything going on. I don't know what
could have possibly happened. Cameron Diaz, by the way, he
hasn't been acting in nine years, so her hiatus. But
it turns out that she loves being a mom more
than anything in the world, and it's been a lot
(27:35):
for her to be on set. She had a child,
a young child ratics, and so she hates being away
from her child. And they just had this kid four
years ago, and so even though she retired and went back,
it looks like now she's not wanting to do this anymore.
She hates the drama and confrontation that comes with working
in Hollywood, and so reportedly we don't know how true
(27:56):
this is. This is according to sources, she's back out again.
She can do that, Yes she can. All right, well
that is your yet and when we come back, we
have under the radar these the stories that may not
be headline news, but we want to bring them to
you and make sure that you're aware. It's way up
with Angela Yews that relates to you. These stories are
(28:18):
flying under the radar. All right, Well it's way up
with the Angela Yee. I'm here, Jasmine brand is here,
and this is under the radar stories that are not
necessarily headline news. And this one is really close to
home at home, I mean the studio here right now,
as we're sitting in the studio in Midtown Manhattan, there's
a man outside threatening to jump from a window. It
(28:39):
is literally on our block, right. Remember we were trying
to get off the uber and we couldn't go. She
was closed off. Yeah, and the uber was like, I'm
gonna let you guys off on the corner. Well, apparently
there's a thirty five year old man who is threatening
to jump from a twentieth floor window. What they're saying,
and they have not revealed his name, is that the
FBI showed up to service search warrant, and he broke
(29:01):
the window inside of an apartment and attempted to climb
out around eight forty am. There's a video where you
can see him sitting outside on the window with his
legs dangling. There's people outside watching and filming. Police start
telling bystanders either get inside their building or move on
down the block. They have put out like a landing pad,
so just in case I guess he does jump or
(29:21):
fall or anything happens, it'll save his life. Wow. And
people are actually looking try to watch this whole thing unfold, right,
there's people outside. I went to the window just to see,
like where exactly is it? And there's people outside pointing,
watching filming and things like that. So I don't know
what this warrant, this search warrant was about from the FBI,
but apparently enough to drive him to that. I hope
(29:44):
they get him. I hope so too. All right, now,
let's talk about Wringling Brothers and Burnam and Billy circus.
That circus has been reimagined and reborn. You know, there's
been a lot of issues with using animals in a circus,
right and rightly so right, if you guys ever go
to the circus, and if you've ever been a universe
soul circus, they also don't use animals. They're really anymore either. Okay, well,
(30:08):
right now they're kicking off the twenty twenty three North
American Tour this fall. It's seventy five performers from eighteen countries,
and they're not gonna have animals anymore. They're gonna have
high wire tricks, soaring trapeze artists, and bicycles leaping on trampolines.
The tour is gonna kick off in Louisiana. That's September
twenty ninth October first. Then it goes to Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Missouri, Maryland, Michigan, Indiana,
(30:33):
and it ends in Oklahoma, and then it restarts in
twenty twenty four in Florida. So it's a whole reimagining
of the modern circus. I like the idea of not
using animals. Yeah, I mean they were declining ticket sales,
customers were conflicted about how circus animals are treated. Yeah,
And imagine like elephants and all the animals we used
to see in these confined spaces being brought place after place. Yeah,
(30:54):
you know, the circus took down his tents and there
were some court battles that led to the end of
Elephant Acts in twenty sixteen. And Peter also has praised
this whole revamping of the circus, and so this rebirth
extends the Circus's long run. You know, the circus has
been around since before automobiles, before airplane, really when Ulysses S.
(31:15):
Grant was president, and that's when menstrel shows were actually
very popular entertainment. So it's been around for a really
long time. They call it the greatest show on Earth
or any kind of live entertainment. So now there's movable staircases,
two main stages. Audiences will have a three hundred and
sixty degree view with life camera feeds, a VR Virtual reality,
and lighting in sound design that checks the performers. So
(31:36):
it's about enhancing the experience, not just technology. There's a
lot of activity and action, so they want to make
sure that you don't miss some of those big moments. Okay,
so would you still go or bring your daughter? She's
too young, but maybe if I had like a five
year old or something. Right, I remember going to the
circus when I was a kid. Yeah, will you go
to the circus. I've been to the universe Soul Circus.
(31:58):
I've never been. I've been a cup full of time,
shout out to the universe. So circus. All right, well
that is you're under the radar now, you know, we
have Way Up. The Mix is coming with the Way
Up Mix at the top of the hour. Plus Julia
Hart is going to be joining us. She has that
Netflix series My Unorthodox Life. It's been two seasons already.
She's an entrepreneur and she's going through a really messy,
(32:19):
very public divorce. So we'll talk to her about all
of those things. For Wealth Wednesday. It's way Up with
Angela Ye Angela Yee is way up. Okay, but people
call you, you know, and then your Instagram page for
your personal it's it's Jasmine Brand. Yeah, Jasmine Brand. So
that makes it seem like your name is Jasmine Brand. Yeah. Okay.
(32:40):
Well let's get into it. On Yeet Sydney La Day.
She is a woman who says that she was injured
by the bullets flying the day that takeoff, was unfortunately killed,
and she's been recovering. She says she has medical bills
that are about two hundred thousand dollars. She actually talked
to the Shade room on the trauma and she says
that she was in hospital for a week after she
(33:02):
slipped into a coma. She was left with a bald
spot where she was shot in the head and she
now has to attend therapy sessions because of her PTSD.
And she said a loud events like New Year's Eve
are triggers for her. She said the November first shooting
was senseless and the other witnesses are still traumatized all
the time. I can only imagine. Yes, So they did
arrested man Patrick Clark, who they believe is responsible for
(33:23):
the shooting, but they still have not named the suspect
for the bullet that struck Sydney. I wonder who's taking
so does her like because her medical bills. I don't
know what's going on with insurance or who's taking care
of it. But that's a lot and we always talk
about like unexpected things in life can really affect and
hit your finances, and medical bills is one of the
(33:43):
top reasons. Vehicles it's a Maybach, you say, Maybach, Maybach.
You know. I don't know much about cars. I just
know that this car looks really nice and it was
designed by Virgil in collaboration with Mercedes Benz. He was
on Instagram showing a video of the vehicle. And it
also comes with the miniature replica. That's cute. That's real cute.
(34:04):
You know it's expensive. They give you a free replica.
And he posted it and he put Virgil Maybox so sweet.
And the Project may Back car is strictly limited, like
we said, only one hundred and fifty of the maid.
I wonder if Emmy can get that in his car show. Oh,
I know he would love to, you know. And it's
a reference on the branding of it, and it's a
one of a kind of electric show car. It also
(34:26):
made an appearance in Drake's video for Sticky, and we
don't know if he owns one, but you know, I
wonder how much it is because I just googled how
much is adep dive? Yeah I did a shallow dive,
not on this one, but just how much a may
Back costum? So the m SRP is one hundred and
eighty five thousand. Now you got to see how much
(34:47):
this one cause I know this gives you a reference
point of it's more than what I just said. It's
more than one hundred and eighty five thousand dollars. Let
me do a deep dive, because I did a shallow dive.
All right, all right. In the meantime, um lip Service.
Koko Jones is on the Ladies episode of lip Service.
She's so talented and gorgeous. She's beautiful and very and
(35:08):
she's sweet, and she can sing and she can act
and all of it. She's funny, she's a Disney kid.
She's funny, and she's a family girl, very family oriented.
But one thing that she talked about is the type
of guys that she likes. And we're gonna talk about
this some more, because Jasmine, you're always discussing this. Yes,
all right. She said that she likes medium looking guys.
Do you like really cute guys or like medium or
(35:30):
like unattractive? Here, she goes, you have a type. I
don't have a type. Me and my friends do say
we like medium ugly and if he's taking me out,
that's jast like good looking medium. I feel like, I
feel like if you're not cute guy, you're weird. You're
were and you're weird. She said the same thing. It's
just like, we can't loan me the baby. But I
(35:50):
will say I have dated guys that off the first impression,
I would be like nah, But because I was kicking
it with them and likes to how they talk and
like their mindset, their confidence, I'm like, okay, okay, I'm
glad that yeah, yeah, okay. I did a deep dive
(36:11):
okay for this project Maybach. And by the way, you
can catch that full episode of lip Service on iHeart
where you listen to podcasts. Right, It's also on my
YouTube page if you want to visually see it. Right.
All right, So I'm looking at the project may Back. Okay, hmm.
It's set across over half a million dollars. Okay, well
(36:32):
that sounds about right. It's probably and then at some
point it's probably gonna be even worth more than that
because it's so limited to try to get it. I
wonder what that insurance. It's like, I wonder if you'll
drive it. Nope, all right, well that is your yet.
And when we come back. We have a Women's History Month.
I mean it's Women's History Month a month, but we
celebrate it year round. Yes, so we are going to
(36:53):
celebrate somebody who we feel like deserves our flowers. So

by the way, right, are you a Gladys Knight fan?
I am? I was just trying to think of my
(38:00):
favorite song. That's why I kind of got quiet first.
I was like, what's my favorite song? She was on
Motown by the way, when she was with the Pips,
and let me see, I'm trying to think of some
of her really big song Midnight Train to Georgia. I
heard it through the grape vine. Oh I heard, which
was a great released later on by Marvin Gay If
I were your woman, Oh, I like that. And me though,
one of us, me the first to say good bye.
(38:25):
All right, we're ruining it. I feel bad. Sorry Gladys Knight,
Sorry Pips. Yes, but yeah, so of course you want
to celebrate m Gladys Knight. And I love when people
go from being in a group to being a solo artist.
That's not an easy thing to do. So shout out
to Gladdys Knight. You were in a group and now
you were a solo artist. Angela, Yes I was. She
also had a variety show, by the way, did you

I went there before as well. So shout out to her.
Did you watch her versus? Yes? I did and that

person that we want to celebrate and you sent us

alumni has become Vanderbilt's first black woman neurosurgeon resident and
it's one hundred and forty eight year history. That's major.
(39:30):
So yeah, we want to celebrate doctor to Mia Potter.
She as the first black woman neurosurgeant resident at Vanderbilt
University in Nashville, Tennessee. And as Angela said, that makes
her the first in one hundred and forty eight years.
That's crazy as one hundred and fifty years. And this
is the fact that we celebrate first still, I mean,
we are celebrating it, but imagine that. And this is
(39:51):

a certified nursing assistant at seventy years old and twenty fourteen.
But today, on March seventeenth, twenty twenty three, hours blessed
to be selected as the first African American female neurosurgery
resident to train at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. And it's
(40:13):
also important to note that prior to matching with Vanderbilt,
she majored in chemistry at FAMU and she attended Case
Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Ohio. Yes, so congratulations,
that's amazing. That's black girl magic for real. Shout out
to you, doctor Potter, Shout out to you, gladys nights. Okay,
And that is for Women's History Month. Now, we do
(40:35):
still have some amazing things happening today. It is Women's
History Month, and we do have an amazing woman coming by,
Yes for Wealth Wednesdays. It is a Wednesday, and Julia
Hart is going to be joining us. If you don't
know who she is, she has a Netflix series, My
Unorthodox Life is two seasons so far of that series.
She was not born Julia Hart, and she's gonna tell
(40:57):
your host story about how she grew up the mentalist society,
leaving behind all of that to go and start a
new life in her forties and then becoming wildly successful
and now going through a very public divorce, you know,
getting vast online but still being an amazing, amazing entrepreneur
Julia Hart. When we come back on Way Up with Angela, Yee.
(41:20):
Yes it is way Up with Angela Yee. I'm here
and Jasmine from the Jasmine brand is here. Yes, all right,
so I am. We're at work right now. There's more information,
just to give you guys an update. Okay, there's somebody
on this block where we work in Midtown Manhattan, where
(41:40):
our studio is located. That um was on the outside
threatening to jump right from the window. I think he's
twenty four, twenty floors up. The FBI did issue a
search war and here's an update. So they're saying this
is and this is just from the New York Post.
A swab Manhattan con man who allegedly one's post as
a scion of a wealthy Jamaican family. What threatened to
(42:04):
jump from a twenty floor window? Ian Mitchell. They say
that he launched a scheme back in twenty fifteen. He
broke the window inside of an apartment within this condominium
building and he attempted to climb out this morning around
eight forty am, and there's a lot of video. You
can see him. His legs are dangling from the window.
Please start telling bystanders either get inside you're building or
(42:26):
moved down the block. This is literally right outside are black.
As a matter of fact, we the uber couldn't even
drop us off. Yeah, we had a walk a little
bit because the street was closed off. So as of
this morning, NYPD's Emergency Services Unit was on the scene
trying to speak to the man, and he did not
have any known weapons in his possession. So the nature
(42:46):
of the FBI search warrant was not immediately known. They
would only confirm that we are conducting a law enforcement
operation pursuance to an ongoing investigation. So they're saying, and
I'm gonna give you all some information. What we know
so far is that he passed himself off as Ian
and Matalan, a relative of the wealthy Jamaican businessman Joseph Matillan,
(43:07):
and claimed to be an investment banker, and in twenty fifteen,
he allegedly told three victims, including an Air Force veteran,
they could have an ownership interest in a new bar
at the Hudson Hotel that's right around the corner. If
they paid up to thirty three thousand dollars for a
liquor license, you know, liquor licenses hard to get, that
easy to get. But he actually had no connection to
(43:27):
any of the bars at the hotel, and he took
the money and blew it on personal expenses, according to prosecutors.
And they also said that one person gave him fifteen
thousand dollars and that was the bulk of his life savings.
But the most lucrative target was a businessman named Humberto
Romero of Yellowstone Medical Management, Inc. They're saying that he
(43:49):
got more than one hundred and fifty eight thousand dollars
from him starting in twenty sixteen. He said he ran
a multimillion dollar hedge fund and promised him a return
if he invested that money in his company and other ventures.
And so he's allegedly a scammer. Yeah, they're saying he's
a con artist. And that's why the FBI, I guess
has this search warrant. And so when the guy Romero
(44:10):
tried to pull out his money, that's when Ian Mitchell
went dark and there was a background check that revealed
his real name and that the Hedge fund never even existed.
So they called the cops on him. And they're saying
that he spent that cash on student loans, credit cards,
jim fees, and a car lease. This sounds like a
show a series. Now. His lawyer at the time that
this happened, right said that mister Mitchell has taken responsibility
(44:32):
and has tried to make good on his financial commitments.
So I guess he was attempting to pay that back.
And so we're going to keep you guys updated. But
you know, this is literally right outside. That's never an
easy thing when things catch up to you, Yeah, and then,
but never a situation where you should feel like you
want to jump from a building, right, of course not.
And this is so he's still sitting out there as
(44:54):
far as I know right now. The street is still
blocked off and he's still sitting outside there. Things that
are going to keep updating, But yeah, keep us posting
on this. This is an interesting story, all right. Well,
we do have Julia Heart joining us. Okay, it is
wealth Wednesday. Julia Heart has the Netflix series My Unorthodox Life.
She's had two seasons of that so far. We'll find
out if there's a third season. On the Way. We
(45:15):
saw her find her true love in the first season
and then they broke up by season two. It starts
off with him moving his stuff out and then things
got really ugly. But she's still an entrepreneur. A lot
of people have doubted her, said she married for money.
She left behind a whole life in her forties and
a very fundamentalist community. So she's going to talk about
all of that on Way Up with Angela Yee Wealth Wednesdays.
(45:40):
It's Way Up with Angela Yee and it is a
Wealth Wednesday, and I'm here with my Wealth Wednesday partner,
Stacy Tisdale. Happy, Way Up. We're gonna take you super
high today. Yeah, I mean this is way up and
Dad and brand is here with and we have Julia
Heart with us. By everyone, I'm so glad to be here. Well,
I love it. No comment, zero comments. I actually started
(46:02):
watching My Unorthodox Life before I met you, and I
had no idea how you showed how restrictive that is.
And so many people I know living in New York
don't understand that that lifestyle, particularly what it is for women. Yeah,
so how did you get from there to all of
the career amazing things that you've done, to ultimately being
(46:26):
an advocate for women entrepreneurs. How did that what happened
to you affect that well? I think, you know, the
reality is that we really don't know what we're capable.
When I left my community, you know, I left at
forty two. I don't know a single person in the
outside world, and it literally was the outside world. There
was my world in the outside world, and I still
(46:46):
think about them that way because my world was in
the eighteen hundreds. The outside world was in the twenty
first century. I've never been on a date. I'd never
been to a bard, but I knew literally zero. You
could wear pants, right. I wasn't allowed to wear pants.
I wasn't allowed to educate myself. I lived in a
very ultra religious Jewish community. Recently, there's been a lot
(47:06):
of talk about laws in Iran. You know that women
can't be educated, and that they can't sing in public,
they can't dance in public, they need permission to get married,
they don't live alone. That was my work. When I
see these laws there, I'm like, that's month seeing New York.
The only difference is nobody beats us or kills us
or throws us in jail. But those are the only
(47:28):
people you know. The conformity I mean, they punish you
through your children, because if you don't conform, your children
won't get proper matches or marriages, and therefore their lives
will be miserable. And so you're forced to conform if
you love your children. Oh my goodness, right, what gave
you good carreage to lead that life? My daughter Miriam?
(47:49):
The reason I'm alive today is because of my daughter Miriam.
So what does what happened? What does? My daughter Miriam
was a tiny little rebel, literally from the day she
was born. She was in second grade, the assignment was
if you could walk in someone's shoes, whose shoes would
you walk in? And everyone basically wrote the same thing.
My saint and grandmother who had seventeen children and never cried,
(48:12):
My sainted mother who had twenty four children. And you know,
I mean I have friends who had sixteen children and
friend who have twelve children. I have forty nine nieces
and nephews. My goodness God, and you have four children.
I was pregnant ten times. I was pregnant ten times
I just miscarried. Six times I would go to the
hospital and I'd miscarry, And you know, usually miscarriage is
a very painful, dramatic difficulty. For me, it was relief
(48:35):
because I didn't want to have ten children. So anyway,
on this wall, I'm gonna go real fast, Miriam. So
everyone else was like my sainted grandmother and saint. My
little daughter says, why would I want to walk in
anyone else's shoes. My fathers are too big, my mothers
are too high. I think I'll go through life walking
in my own shoes. And then when she got a
little older, when I was in my mid thirties, she
(48:58):
wanted to play soccer, and he said, you can't because
you're wearing a skirt. And if your knees show while
you're playing, a man walking by the field may see
your knees and get turned on. It's going to be
your fault because of men. You're responsible for men's actions. Now,
let's not talk about the fact what kind of man
gets turned on by five year old knees or an
eight year old's knees or an eleven year olds knees. Yeah,
(49:22):
and my little daughter, she looks at my husband, her
father and says, oh, well, is he responsible for my sense? Now?
I was like, yeah, what she said, I'm gonna do
that at of that because she gave me permission to question.
Because until then, my whole life I felt this dichotomy
between who I was and who I was told I
had to be. But everyone around me was happy, everyone
(49:43):
around me follows rules. So to me, it was like,
what's wrong with me that I'm not okay with being
silent and subservient? All right, guys, we are talking to
Julia Hart from My Unorthodox Life or Wealth Wednesday? How
do you get from that too? Yes? And all the
selfish and all this stuff that came with it to
you left that you started your own shoeline because I
(50:05):
figured if I can time travel, I can pretty much
do anything. That took so much I'm trying to get
that is. How did you educate yourself to become a businesswoman?
I read. I became a voracious reader. I read everything
from Euripides to Voltaire, to Spinoza to Descartes, business history, marketing, fashion,
everything I could get my hands on, and then I
(50:26):
started drawing and designing. I thought fashion is the personal
expression of who we are today. To me, it's freedom.
You're an entrepreneur, and you really built yourself up, Like
you said, you moved out when you're in your forties
and you had a lot to learn. But I feel
like people try to downplay it, like there's no way
she was able to do that. It's not possible to
build this hundreds of millions of dollars empire without something
(50:50):
else happening. Yes, And they also try to act like
it's not you that did it with your own grid.
How does that make you feel? And do you think
that's because you're a woman? One thousand percent is because
I'm a woman. When Season one came out, I was
accused of marrying my husband for his money. And even
though when I married him he had lost all his money,
all he had left was EWG in a few million dollars.
(51:11):
Not that a few million dollars is a moping point
is I kept my mouth shut because I loved him,
and I allowed myself to be accused of marrying someone
for their money to get a leg up out of
pure love. But you know, my first brand, which was
Julia Hart Shoes, I have texts from there because I
did get propositioned by people who invested in my company,
(51:31):
and I told them this company is about freedom, and
if I have to sleep with someone or fake an
emotion to have it, then there's no point in it.
And I think the reason I constantly get accused of
this is because what I did is unusual, and it
is very fast, and it is hard to believe. What
kind of advice can you give to women that are
in situations where they're not not financially independent right now?
(51:54):
What kind of baby steps, small steps can they take
to sort of get rid in the right direction and
love that you don't realize what you're capable of until
you just get started. So much of it is in
our minds. We think we can't and so we never try.
So my advice is, I don't care what you do.
Look what did I do when I first started. I'd
never a college degree, I didn't know anyone from the outside.
I saw life insurance, So I think I could think
(52:15):
of selling that you didn't need a degree for. You
need to want it so badly that you can't breathe
without it. You need to want to be free so
badly that you are willing to work as many hours
as a take when I first started, people would pat
me on the head, people literally diminished me every day,
and I just didn't care because in my eyes, I
(52:36):
saw that I could accomplish. And that's to me. I
don't care if you start working at a seven eleven.
It doesn't matter what you do. Just get up and
do something and then figure out, Okay, now that I
have X amount, what can I do with this amount.
Don't spend it on clothing, don't spend it on anything invested,
figure out, Okay, I'm going to invest this to the
next step. When you get to the next step, figure out, Okay,
(52:57):
what do I want the next step to be. But
I would say that the first step in that journey,
you have to know what you want. You've got to
pick something. You have to pick a passion. Right. So
there's so many people that want to do any and everything. Yeah,
I'll do that, I'll try this. I saw this work
for this person. I'll do that. And you have to
know what you're passionate about and then go really hard
at it. So choose one thing. I always call your angel.
(53:20):
Choose your angel. What do you see when you wake
up in the morning, What do you see when you
go to sleep at night, choose your angel and then
focus on that and that's your thing, all right. It's
way up with Angela Yee and it's Wealth Wednesday. Julia
Heart is joining us. We'll have more with her when
we come back for Wealth Wednesday. You can catch her
on My Unorthodox Life on Netflix. Way up with Angela Yet,
(53:50):
what's up? It's way up with Angela Yee And my
partner in Wealth Wednesday is here with me, Stacy Tisdale.
Jasmine from the Jasmine Brand is here with me. Did
I do that right? Yes? You did? All right? And
Julia Heart is also joining us from My Unorthodox Life,
but she also has a lot of gems to give
us when it comes to business for Wealth Wednesday. Now, Stacy, Well,
I think it's absolutely amazing that you are also moving
(54:13):
into venture capital for female entrepreneurs and we really talked
about this time. Do not get that percent of venture
capital goes to women? Well, I have something to talk about.
I can't talk about it yet. I do have some
exciting views. This is something that you know, when I
couldn't work for Ableugen, so I couldn't help make women
(54:35):
financially independent that way, I had to think of what
am I going to do this year? I'm not going
to just sit around and not help people. That's my
purpose in life, right, So we started making these female
founder formed meetings in my house where I would bring
young female entrepreneurs and then VC financers and the entrepreneurs
would be able to present. And we've got a lot
(54:56):
of investment for these women. So it's been working really
really well, and now I have an idea to time
to take it nationwide. So we want to help in
any way we can once you're able to talk about it,
and I think will allow every woman who wants to
in America to have an opportunity to start something. That's
so I'm really really excited about that. And then you know,
(55:17):
I'm also I've got a few other projects. Um that
I'm really talk about. The Body, Yes, my bus body.
So it's something that I invented. You've seen it in
season one. Is amazing looking, it's really um beautiful, like
you know that it doesn't and it doesn't seems that's
really nice. You know, it's going to be available starting April.
(55:39):
And then the other project that I'm working on that
I'm really excited about is this brand called Amian this woman,
Elena Merle, she's a cancer survivor. She lost both breasts
and it did terrible things to her skin, and so
her doctor recommended cryotherapy and it's a quick freezing quickly
like a deep yeah, and it did for her skin.
(56:00):
And she's an inventor. We're actually partnering on several projects together,
but this is the one that's furthest along. Basically, she said,
I wonder how women who can't go to a cliotherapy,
can't afford cliotherapy, what can they do at home that
will mimic it. So she developed this skincare routine and
it's an ice cube. You keep it in your freezer
(56:21):
and in the morning you go like this all over
your face and it just melts into your skin. And
what it does, because it acts almost like cliotherapy, It
enlarges your pores so that the skincare that you put
on afterwards goes in your deep and then the minute
it dries, it shrinks your poores back in, which enables
it to stay in your skin right and not dissipate.
(56:43):
It's unbelievable. It's an extraordinary thing. You had to look
at myself. I've been using it since I've met her.
So I mean, I'm like totally obsessed with this product. Yeah,
I'm going to share you know what, I'll actually send
you guys, if you give me all of your I'll
send I'll bring three box is because you're gonna see
it's unlick. I can't wait. I would try that every day.
It's amazing. And it feels kind of like a mini
(57:06):
spat treatment, Like I'll do it in the morning and
I'll close my eyes and I'll do this and I
feel like relax and it's almost like a meditative thing.
It's really really, it feels amazing. And one final question
for me, for you that will help the men and
women and our audience. If you had one money lesson
that you've learned from all that you've been through that
(57:28):
you think our audience could learn from. What is it?
Don't trust anyone, even if they're your spouse or your
best friend. Put it in a contract. I didn't take
enough care about contracts. I trusted instead of putting it
and write it. And I think, and you know, we're
made to feel bad if we don't trust our loved ones.
(57:50):
I'm sorry. Trust is great. Put it on a piece
of paper that is my biggest device. Because imagine if
you work and you build something, and you create something
a tremendous value, and you weren't careful with your paperwork,
someone will come and take it for me. And the
more you succeed, when you start building a billion dollar business,
someone's going to come for you. So put everything in writing.
(58:13):
Make sure you have the best lawyer you can possibly afford.
Get it in a legal document. There you have it. Well.
Thank you so much for that and for being it's
an open and transparent all the time. Thank you. I
don't know how that's freedom too. Thank yourself is freedom too.
But honestly, thank you so much for joining us, Julia Heart.
Make sure you get the book Brazen. Make sure you
(58:34):
watch My Unorthodox Life seasons one and two, maybe three
comments in we don't know nothing confirmed. Thank you for
the pearls on this very special walls. You guys are
so amazing. Thank you so much. And I'm going to
make sure and I'll send you guys a shapewear piece
and the cryotherapy. Thank you guys so much. This was
so much fun. Thank you, thank you. That was wealth
Wednesdays with me and Stacy Tisdale and of course Jasmine
(58:57):

asked ye. Eight hundred two nine two fifty one fifty
is the number anything you want to ask. We are
here to help everybody with its relationship or career advice.
Angela's dropping facts, what's up? It's way up with Angela
Yee and Jasmine Brand is here with me and it's
time for ask ye. Eight hundred two nine two fifty
(59:19):
one fifty is the number for you guys to call
up whenever you have a question so we can help
you out. Hey, Seana, what's your question for? Ask ye?
How do you break up with some one? Okay? Why
are you guys breaking up? It's the most of the reasons,
and I'm tired, but I don't know how to tell
this person that I'm done. Are you do you guys
live together? Yeah? Unfortunately? Okay? Whose name is on the leasa?
(59:44):
Both of you? Does somebody have to move? What are
the logistics he would have to go? Okay, he's got
to go. You think that's gonna be an issue for
him to leave? What I think is it's gonna he's
gonna need some time. Okay, how much time are you
willing to give him. I'll give him thirty days, okay.
I think that's very fair and financially he's okay to
(01:00:05):
move out. So because it feels like you're upset that
he's been lying to you, right, and so, the one
thing I want to say is when you do go
into this right, go into it rationally. You've laid everything
out and you have your whole list, you know why,
and I think it's important for you to just be
as calm as possible so that things don't get emotional
(01:00:26):
and he doesn't. It doesn't turn into an argument, but
you just need to lay it out. Look, I'm not happy.
The reason why I'm not happy is because X, Y,
and Z, and this is not a situation I want
to continue to be in. I've already decided this is
what I want to do, and I know that you
need to get your things together and move out. I
am willing to give you thirty days, you know, for
(01:00:48):
you to get it together. If you can get out
faster than that, amazing. If not, I can give you
those thirty days for you to gather yourself and get
what you need, and if you have any thoughts, I
would love for you to get those out now, but
I've already decided this is what I want. Okay, that
sounds good. I appreciate you. Thank you. Well, my question,

(01:01:10):
my cousins, my best friend, everybody. Ken told me he's
gonna try to do something like he's not gonna be
able to handle it. I don't think so eager. All right, well,
I just want to recommend, just for safety purposes, have
somebody nearby, you know, so that just in case you
need another person to intervene. You're good, I will, But
I don't think it's gonna get like to a physical thing.
(01:01:31):
It's just like, Okay, he's very emotional like too. That's
what they mean when they're saying he's not gonna be
able to handle it his emotional All right, well, maybe
you say what you have to say, let him get
whatever he needs to get, you know, off of his chest,
out in the open, and then maybe it's time for
you to, you know, at that time, be like, I'm
gonna leave you alone for a little while. I'm gonna go,
you know, grab something to eat, and come back. Okay,
