Speaker 5 (04:30):
You know?

Speaker 8 (04:31):
I don't know. I'm just I'm just trying to think
about what I'm putting and maybe my expectations. Like if
I called you, there should be a time limit that
you gotta call me right back of twenty minutes or more.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
But if they're sleeping, what are you sleeping?

Speaker 8 (04:43):
You need to tell me that you got ta you
got the red line some of these terms and conditions.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Man, And now what happens if they violate the contract?

Speaker 8 (04:52):
Oh, they get documentation like in the work place, but
you're gonna get a write up and after three starts
you terminated. Wow, I have to take my heart in
my feelings.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
You can't just instead of having a contract, just break
up with somebody if you don't like how I'm it's documented.

Speaker 8 (05:06):
I need accountability. I need to hold myself accountable to
make sure I'm not going accepting the thing red flags
and more so, if they.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
Give you a contract to sign, you'll sign.

Speaker 8 (05:15):
Also about like what the contract says.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Technically, this is kind of like a pre enough agreement
if you want technical, But it's not even a relationship yet.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
It's just when you first start dating, right.

Speaker 8 (05:26):
Yes, but in dating people tend to be lying a lot.
I want to date for long term, not for if.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
Probably don't care if they're going to violate the contract anyway.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
Yeah, sure, I'll sign it.

Speaker 5 (05:35):
It's got to get notarized.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
And then I don't know about a contract.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
But I think having a being very clear on your
intentions and your expectations is a great.

Speaker 4 (05:49):
Thing to do.

Speaker 8 (05:51):
All right, So I don't know about a contract.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
You're right.

Speaker 8 (05:54):
You the second person that shut me down.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
The third No, how about a verbal contract that could work?

Speaker 7 (06:00):
Right?

Speaker 8 (06:01):
Handshake a verbal contract. We do that every day and
people still be lying.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
The truth is that people will do what they want
to do when a contract ain't gonna stop nothing true, Right,

a media maven, right.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
You never know what Angel's going to say.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
What's up?

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Its way up with Angela yee, I'm Angela ye. Beat
that is guest hosting with me. You know what he
usually leaves before the interview. But Dot, you don't hear.
But when I tell you this, whole entire floor is
so excited and so am.

Speaker 5 (06:56):
I prepared to be very disappointed.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
Now, So Ocean's fourteen is happening, it feels like, I mean,
hearing conversations about it.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
And nobody called me.

Speaker 4 (07:07):
How did they not? Though that's impossible, is it.

Speaker 5 (07:11):
I'm just saying that we've seen everything happen.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
Okay, I imagine if it's happening, they're going to call
me for sure, But I don't.

Speaker 5 (07:17):
I don't know that it's happening. I just think it's
been a lot of talk.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
So yeah, a lot of talk about the script is
ready and they've been working on it.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
And but you like it though, right? You would? You
would be willing?

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yes, I mean, I mean it would depend you know
what I mean, Like I almost wasn't in the second one.
What interesting story. The timing of it on paper at
the time is going to be a direct conflict with
Hotel Rwanda.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
Oh, Hotelwanda's classic, and.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
I was like, there's no way I'm going to do
Ocean's twelve over Hotel over Hotel Rwanda.

Speaker 5 (07:56):
So I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
And then Brad playing the character Achilles in the movie
that he did tore his Achilles and it pushed the
movie eight weeks, which was the window that I.

Speaker 4 (08:08):
Was able to do.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Too crazy is that all the times that you probably
have roles that you really wanted to do but timing
wise you couldn't. You know, that has to hurt sometimes
when you're like, man, I want to do it, but.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
I mean, I'm going to say honestly, I'm sure that happens.
But I've rarely been in that situation. I've been very
fortunate and blessed in every word you want to use
to have the opportunity to do most of the things
that I've I've.

Speaker 5 (08:30):
Wanted to do.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
Right now, Beata is here with me and we are
talking to the legend Don Cheetle.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Like when we shot that video, Kendrick was so with it,
like between takes, you know, and in our part of
the video he's handcuffed to the table and he's, you know,
doing this whole stuff. And cuffs, and we'd cut and
they would go to take the handcuffs off and he'd
be like, no, in character, and he's in character.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
He stayed in them the whole video. I was like,
does he know that he doesn't he's in the cameras.
He's like, no, he's dead likely committed. And I had
wanted him.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
He was something that I had thought about casting in
my movie that I did miles ahead and having played
the role of Junior, and we talked about it for
a long time and he was ultimately he said, I
don't think I'm ready to do that, and I'm kind
of working on a project right now and I kind
of don't want to, like have to see that through.
And I also don't want to come in here halfway.
And I'm like, no, I get it. And it was

(09:23):
to Pimp a Butterfly. I was like, I think you
made the right choice on that one.

Speaker 4 (09:26):
This was such a blessing to have you here today, honestly, Like.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
And where's the so I thought it was. I thought
there was like some money, it's supposed to happen.
