Happy holidays. A week off is crazy. I did a

Speaker 3 (01:23):
I just want to clarify because I know there's an
expiration date on when Thanksgiving food goes bad. I saw
they did a whole thing like Turkey three to four

Speaker 1 (02:13):
His way up?
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Put into Lagi and it's time to shine a light.
And I read this story about Nathanael Johnson. He raised
three point one million dollars in pre seed funding for
a startup that he co founded called Series.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And he did all of this while he was at Yale.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
He's now preparing for a Series A funding while in
his senior years he works eighteen hour days.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
So basically what this does.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Series, it's an AI social networking platform and matches people
over I Message. And while he's doing all this still
being a student, he said, for as long as he
can remember, he's had an interest in technology and entrepreneurship.
In seventh grade, a technology teacher introduced him to linkbots,
and you can link together modular robots by programming them
to make them past a series of obstacle courses.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
He started doing this, think about this in seventh grade.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
So this is why early education and exposure is so important.
He ended up going to Yale, and then he spent
three weeks using Swift to do some coding to help
Freshman navigate orientation, and then he started a Founder series
podcast and then that's when he started doing these warm
introductions where a trusted mutual connection links to people to
(03:21):
meet their first investors, customers, and users. So that's how
we ended up doing it. I love a story like that. Now, Ryan,
who do you want to shine a light on?
Speaker 5 (03:29):

brothers on it in Amar. We are young entrepreneurs.

back right into it with your yee t and fifty
Cent his documentary about Diddy is being talked about. We'll
(04:19):
tell you what he had to say with Robin Roberts
about this, uh, this documentary, it's way up.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
They says the rules from the industry shade to all
of gossip out, saying that Angela's feeling that yet.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
It's way up and Angela yee yeh back baby made us.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
And let's get into some yet.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
So fifty cent has put out his trailer for the
Diddy documentary that he has coming out on Netflix tomorrow,
by the way, and a lot of people are wondering, well,
what is the issue that Diddy and fifty cent have,
or really that fifty cent has with Diddy.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
There's a lot of questions. I do want to say.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
On Media Takeout, fred is saying that he saw the
documentary and it's actually pretty fair and journalistic and not
necessarily the hit piece that people are assuming it's gonna be.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
But I haven't seen it.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
I want to see it before.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
All right, Well, they did film Diddy before he had
to turn himself in, and so that's all in this
documentary too.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
And so here is Diddy talking to his lawyer.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Listen, to me, I'm gonna get off the phone right now,
and I am going to let you professionals look at
the situation and come back to me with a solution.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
No matter what, No matter what nobody said, let's just.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
Get it there.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
Y'all are not working together the right way.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
We're losing, all right.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
In addition to that, fifty cent was on Good Morning
America with Robin Roberts and he talked about the fact
that he wasn't doing this as a hit piece or
to be petty.
Speaker 8 (05:53):
How do you respond to people who say that, But
it's more about the stain that you have for.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Sean Combs than it is for giving.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
The victims a platform.
Speaker 8 (06:01):
What they consider a pre existing b for twenty years
is me being uncomfortable with him suggesting that he takes
me shopping or I looked at it like he was
like it was like a tester, like maybe you'll come
play with me type of thing and stop personal.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
What do you think about that, man?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Or if somebody a guy's like, let me take you shopping,
is that a tester or what is that?
Speaker 4 (06:23):
I don't think nobody will say nothing like that to me.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, what if they whispered it?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Stop playing with me.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Stop playing with me right now, say like you know, yeah,
you know, no, yes, definitely?
Speaker 1 (06:40):
So is that disrespectful?
Speaker 9 (06:42):
If like, why would you why would you be even
talking about Yeah, I don't even like where that's going, okay.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
All right.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
In addition to that, you know, Robin Roberts was asking
him about this whole trial with Diddy. Do you think
that means that hip hop culture was on trial?
Speaker 10 (06:59):
Do you think that hip hop culture was on trial
as much as Sean Combs was.
Speaker 8 (07:03):
If I didn't say anything, you would interpret it as
hip hop is fine with his behaviors because no one
else being vocal. So you would look at it and
just say, because that mind your business, or let me
not say nothing about nothing or those things that it
would allow an entire culture to register as if they're
for that behavior.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Look at you thinking about that?
Speaker 4 (07:26):
A lot of people had a lot to say.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah, a lot of people did.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
And I do want to also point out, and this
is called Seawan Colmbs The Reckoning. This documentary is a
four part series on Netflix tomorrow, directed by Alexandria Stapleton.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I saw Dame Dash also had some things to say.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Dame Dash actually called out fifty cents for doing this documentary,
and what he said was, never trust a black man
that will make a documentary tearing down another black man
for a white man. That's nasty work. I'm not playing
these ghetto games that's played out. But if you haven't
seen it, you don't even.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Know what you're saying. You don't really know. Maybe he's
not doing it all right.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Well, in addition to that, you know, fifty Cent talked
about what he thinks Diddy will think about this documentary.
Speaker 8 (08:11):
If Sean comes watches this, what do you think he's
gonna feel like, Wow, this is amazing.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
I think he's gonna say this is the best documentary
I've said it in a long time.
Speaker 8 (08:19):
You might feel a different way about pieces and bits
of it, but you know it's truth.
Speaker 5 (08:24):
I think he'll see you truth in it.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
You can't put out anything that's fake either, because you'll
get sued, like you.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
And so I'm sure that heat. Yeah, you gotta watch
it before you can judge it. And he also said,
fifty Cent said, what feud, I put two of his
kids in my scripted TV shows.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I just didn't like the fruity ish to me. What
he said. So that's basically his problem.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
All right, well that's your Yet when we come back
about last night where we discussed what we did last night,
we got questions, you know, we got questions.
Speaker 1 (08:53):

He's kept from it, and I think he's still in
a certain type of way.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
I understand that it's rare, but they are grown up
and they're not blood related, right, so I get that
it's a little, you know, it feels weird, but it's
not tech.

Not really really real weird, especially if they are already
grown and they obviously been doing this already, right, yeah,
apparently they've been.
Speaker 5 (12:57):
They've been doing it for about six months.
Speaker 4 (12:59):

Speaker 9 (13:26):
Of this society's view on what thing's supposed to be.
And just live your life the way it is, Like,
it's only messy.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
If they break up and then now they got to
see each other all the time. That's annoying, but you know,
life far.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Yeah, and they have to understand there's a lot more
at stake here, so they just have to move accordingly.
But you can't stop people from who they're in love with,

one fifty just in case you couldn't get through.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
And when we come back, we got your y e.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
T Imagine inviting somebody over your house for the holidays
and then they don't go and talk ish about you
on the podcast.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Oh wow.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Yeah, we'll tell you who did that and what the
response has been. Its way up.
Speaker 5 (14:55):
You're on the tease.
Speaker 8 (14:57):
She came here of seats.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
It's time to spiel that, yeah, that's different. It's way
up at Angela yea, I'm here with Maino. Oh man,
I know this is gonna make you so annoyed just
because of your your code of morals and ethics. But
recently this clip resurface of Trayvon Buaken, a former NFL player,
and he's talking about going to Russell Wilson's house for Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
This was on the House of Playmakers.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Here's what he said, Russell Wilson, I went to his
house for Thanksgiving.
Speaker 10 (15:29):
The word is felt like his mama wouldner, sisters, a wardener.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
Even if you don't.
Speaker 10 (15:34):
Fool with your family, it's still works me on Thanksgiving.
It's literally him Sierra, Sierra, daddy me, nooney, baby future,
theself in two nannies.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
So what why are you telling that number one? Why
weren't you with your family?
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Because he's saying if it was him right, he would
have flew his whole family in Thanksgivings.
Speaker 9 (15:55):
He's another man in his family on Thanksgiving and you
don't know what the situation is.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
This was so messy.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
What did anybody ask him that.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
No volunteer, that he volunteered this information?
Speaker 3 (16:08):
All right, now, Shannon Sharp and O to Senko immediately
had some things to say about it.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And here's what they have to say. Why is he
sharing information anyway?
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Now you see why I don't have a whole lot
of mofos at my house. See, he's worried about somebody else. Family,
your black ass there. He invited you, He looked at
you like families and what.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
You do turn around and volunteer information and nobody asked
you listen.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Shannon Sharp knows best, like, but this.
Speaker 9 (16:37):
Is the world we live in with does is just
telling stories just to just to have a viral club.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Can you imagine the violation of feeling like I let
you into my home then you just said you let
you have a good time, have you around my family?
And this is what you do? Yeah, well they let listen,
They let him have it on social media.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
I would never speak to him again.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Yeah life if he probably does right like that, that's that.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
And you know people are bringing up his past to
Trayvon Boykeen and arrest that he's had and things like that,
So you can do those googles all right now. T
Pain also was recently on Club Shaysha and one thing
that he did talk about was selling his catalog to
Harbor View Equity Partners. You know, people always talk about
I was selling this and you shouldn't sell it and
hold on to it.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Well, here's what he had to say.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Well made me sell my catalog.
Speaker 9 (17:25):
The amount of money that they gave me for my catalog,
it literally would have took me one hundred years to
make that money.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
I calculated it, and I was like, why would I
sell all?
Speaker 6 (17:37):
This?
Speaker 9 (17:37):
Would say, and they like, look, here's how much you're
making per year.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
All of this. We're going to give you one hundred
years worth of money right here, all at once.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Makes sense to me absolutely, And that money you can
invest and make even more so people always wonder why
do people need this? Well, sometimes that upfront money allows
you to make some amazing investments. Yes, that can continue
to grow. All right now, Moneylaw has stepped away from
the Boy's Mind tour that hasn't met health concerns that
she's had. She said, I'll truly miss seeing you all
(18:06):
out there, and I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity. And
she's been talking about that. She said it would be unsafe.
When she was up here. She was just discussing the
health issues that she has that prevent her from performing
for long periods of time. And Maya is officially now
on the Boy's Mind tour. So once money long left,
that's who is replacing her. So that's dope. So it's
still a great lineup, all right. When we come back,
(18:29):
we have.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Under the radar.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
These are the stories that are not necessarily in the headlines.
They're flying under the radar, but you need to know
about them. Man, Housing costs are soaring rising and right
now one place has a lot of fraud going on
when it comes to rental applications.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
We'll tell you what's happening. It's way up.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
News.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
This in the news that relates to you. These stories
are flying under the radar.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
It's way up.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
But Angela, Yeah, I'm here with Mayno man, listen, the
economy is so bad. The number of raudulent rental applications
is increasing nationwide, and that means that people are doing
like fake pay stubs and things like that to show
that they can actually afford these rentals. I in Atlanta
neighborhoods with the highest incidents of fake applications, they said
(19:16):
that roughly half of all submissions were flagged as fraudulent
that I.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
No, you can't do that, But then what happens when
you can't pay for.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
It when you get in there.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Well, they've actually started using doctored pay stuffs, fake employment letters,
even AI generated credit. But here's the thing, like, sometimes
you got to think about what you can afford. What
do they always say about thirty percent of your salary
should go towards your rent.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
And eventually it's going to catch up with you.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
So people have to think, like about what is realistic
because one of the most stressful things is not being
able to pay your bills.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I will tell you that from my own experiences.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
A right now, accused assassin Luigi Mangioni is in court
today in New York City.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Get on a suit. I'm twenty seven years old. Now
you remember who he is?
Speaker 5 (20:09):
Right?
Speaker 4 (20:09):
They shot down that man over there by that hotel
over there was.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
That United Healthcare.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Yes, he executed the head allegedly of healthcare giant United
health Care that was around the corner from where we
are right now. So he has a hearing that's expected
to last a week. And what this hearing is about
is whether or not the police breached his rights by
questioning him and searching his backpack before getting a warrant.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Now this is important because this is our pre trial.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
So if the judge sides with the defense, he could
then borrow them from showing jerors the key evidence that
cops found inside the backpack, which was the murder weapon,
a notebook where he also allegedly explained his motives. And
so he's facing separate federal charges in a case where
prosecutors have taken the step of asking for the death penalty.
(20:58):
But this is just to see if this evidence we'll
be able to be used. So we'll see in about
a week what's gonna happen with him.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
That was a wild, wild situation. When that yeah, when.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
That happens on him, would have never got caught.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Oh the backpack, yeah yeah. But the thing is, are
they how they gonna get a warrant? You know what
I'm saying. But I guess there's steps you have to take.
So we'll see what the judge decides. All right, Well,
that is your that is your under the radar. When
we come back, we do have the way it mixed
for you at the top of the hour, Plus we
got a special guest joining us, my girl Deborah Roberts
is gonna be here. She's an amazing journalist. She also
(21:37):
has a new book out. She's a New York Times
bestselling author already. But sisters loved and treasured stories of
unbreakable bonds, and you're gonna love this.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
This is just in time for the holidays. It's way up.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
She's like to talk like they Jalie Jean, like they
Jalie Jean.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
All this is yaky, way.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Yeah, it's way up in and like, yeah, I'm here,
We're main o Mayna, it's been in anato check. I
do have the iFIT app on my phone if we
ever want to do some workouts in here.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
By the way, oh.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
These they can't do fifty pushups though.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Oh all right, well let's see with I fit, because we.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Could do like some yogas, some you know, get your
blood flowing. All right, well, let's get into some of this.
Yet I thought this was really cute. So Lil Wayne
and Toya interviewed Regine, their daughter that they have together,
and she talked about a lot of different things, and
one of the things she talked about was her parents
getting divorced and how did that affect her.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Listen to this. Obviously, your dad and I didn't stay together.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
How would you say us, you know, getting a divorce
that affected you.
Speaker 11 (22:44):
I was so young, so it really didn't affect me much.
I really I was sad. I mean yeah, but the
older I got, y'all co parents is so well, like
it never affected me to a way. Was like, dang,
I don't see my parents or I want my parents together.
I've always spent a time with my mom, spend time
with my dad. Like y'all did that?
Speaker 4 (23:02):
Co parents and steff I love their relationship mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
And I think it's important because sometimes it's worse for
kids to see their parents not get along but stay
together than it is for them to be.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Able to co parent.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Well, it's not harmony all right now. Another thing that
she talked about was, you know, Lil Wayne does have
other kids by different women. She was the only child
for such a long time. Here's what she had to
say about the other moms. Which one of your daddy's
baby mama was, is your favorite?
Speaker 1 (23:30):
When I was younger, my favor was like NI used
to really play with you.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
Oh.
Speaker 11 (23:35):
I still love them to this day, but like now
that I get older, my sad queen twin like Lauren,
there you go.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
That's dope.
Speaker 10 (23:43):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
I wish I could do something like that.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Well you could.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I don't know if it's going to go this well,
but I would love I would tune in. And her
podcast is called Airtime. H E I R Airtime, So yes,
I love that for her though, And what a great
sit down interview to have. You can do it all
right now Bernaboys us show. Some of them have been canceled.
Tonight was actually supposed to be in Chicago and Ticketmaster
(24:10):
announced the last minute cancelation on Thursday. You know, tour
organizers did not give a specific reason for the cancelation,
but people are talking about the public criticism that he
got after he made a couple leave because the woman
fell asleep during his performance and the woman was grieving
a recent loss, and so people felt like that was
(24:32):
rude for him to do that after they spent their money.
But he has doubled down and defended himself for why
he did that.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
So he didn't apologize. So the apology that.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
We saw it was he it was kind of a
weird apology.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
He basically was like, sorry if I'm wrong, but I
don't think that I am. And then he was saying,
I'm not a stripper, so you don't just throw money
at me and think I'm supposed to do whatever.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Like the end, he was talking about.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
The energy and people falling asleep at the show and
if I was a teacher and you were disturbing the class,
you would have to leave, you know.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
So he kind of compared to that.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
So yes, but it's affecting, said, I saw people also
doing this thing where they were posting video of themselves
at his shows.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Asleep and sleep challenge.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Yeah, they were doing like a sleep challenge. It shows
that would be a good time for him to be like,
let me apologize to this woman, let me bring her out,
let me make it up. I think that would be
a good time to do something like that, to turn
something bad into something positive.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
But that's just my thoughts, all right.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
He was also doing this whole thing with free coffee
for people that come to his shows to keep them awake. Okay,
all right, well that is your yet and when we
come back it's a Monday.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
You know what we need. We need some man ovation.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
You've been giving a lot of gems on let's wrap
about it. So let's hear somet's way up. It's way up. Yeah,
and it's a Monday, that's right, and let's wrap about it.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Maato's here.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Hey, let's go, let's do it Monday. Today's man ovention
I will say is you have to manage your expectations. Right.
So it's like the cold the principles that you set
for yourself off off for you, right, you may not
get that in return. So just because you may be
a lower person doesn't mean that the person you're being
(26:17):
loyal to is going to be sharing the same view, right,
But those.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Are your views, right.
Speaker 9 (26:23):
You can't expect the same out of everything. You can't
expect because of the way you are. That automatically translate
to people being the same way. Right. So, but but
you do you're not doing it for that, well, you're
right doing it for you.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Expectations, they say, there's a fine line between expectations.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
And reality, right, because you get hurt.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Yeah, and you will get your feelings hurt the times.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
But expectations can also make you work really hard because
you expect that when I do this.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
But sometimes you can't control the outcome.
Speaker 9 (26:54):
You can't control you don't know where somebody else is at.
You don't know where somebody else moral code is at.
You don't know somebody else. You know where they draw
the line between business and personal right. So the only
thing you can do is live the way you live,
whatever is your line, whatever is your code, stick to that.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
You know.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
It's also hard to because we also want to manifest things,
and we talk about that, and I feel like sometimes
we want to manifest these high expectations. I'm going to
be CEO one day, my business is going to succeed.
But sometimes the reality is there's things that are out
of our control and that doesn't happen.
Speaker 9 (27:30):
But you got better control of you and your path
than somebody else's. Yeah, expect expect nothing to gain the world, brother.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
All right?
Speaker 4 (27:37):
We let it.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Yeah, And there's a lot of links between expectation and performance.
And sometimes expectations can make you be more motivated and
go harder but.
Speaker 9 (27:48):
Right, But then when it doesn't live up to your
expect expectation, you fall from the roof harder.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Some things are unrealistic, all right, but love it so
just that when you go to the still club, do
not have expectations.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Just what else? Some baby when we come.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Back, ask Yee, and my expectation is that Mana was
an award winning advice giver, winning advice giver, so eight
hundred two nine two fifty one fifty. I know you
need us, just like Rihanna needed me.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
It's way up with.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Its relationship for Kreer advice. Angela's dropping facts, so you
should you should know.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
This is ask what's up? His way up in Angela Yee.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
I'm here with the award winning advice giving maino to
ask Yee and we have an anonymous caller on the
line and she is just basically not getting along with
her mom, and she's ready to cut her off.
Speaker 7 (28:38):
I'm in a my mom. She's so she's just getting
more and more out of Podget. When I do move,
I'm putting a tier like I'm trying to man out
her relationship from when I was a kid. But for me, okay,
my mom didank and she never wants to talk about it.
(29:03):
She never want to go through She want to forget
about the First.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Of all, thank you for sharing that with us.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Sometimes what we need to do is things for ourselves,
not necessarily for your mom, but it feels like for
you there's these feelings you have that you can't even
express to her because she's not willing to hear it. Right,
She's got her own demons, her own issues. Have you
spoken to anybody outside of family, like a professional.
Speaker 7 (29:29):
Usually about this?
Speaker 1 (29:32):
I think you need to.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Talk to somebody that's not a family member, somebody that's
a professional, because sometimes people are too close to the
situation and that doesn't make it any better either. And
you need to learn some tools that you can use
to deal with family and to deal with your mother.
I don't want you to feel like you're alone in this.
I don't want you to have these feelings of resentment
(29:53):
that you have because it feels like that's weighing you down.
And you know what, it would help your mom too,
But I feel like you need to work on yourself
first and then be able to bring her in.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
That's definitely a good idea and good advice. And I've
been trying to find some free therapy because right now
I do have insurance, but I definitely do that.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
There's definitely resources available. I'm doing a little research.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
There's also online counseling that you can have and group sessions.
There's a lot of free resources that are available or
really like low cost ones where you don't have to
go in person.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
You can go online. You can find somebody.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
To talk to that's still a credited So I just
think that's important for you to do that and find
somebody who you can talk to because that can actually
give you some tangible things that you can do.
Speaker 7 (30:43):
I agree with you.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
I think if you need to take a break from
your mom, do that. I saw Oprah was talking about that,
this whole being estranged from family and things like that.
But I just don't want this to be something that
affects you as a burden on you, because you know
they always say forgiveness is for yourself, not for the
other person.
Speaker 7 (31:03):
Yeah, I agree, all.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Right, So please follow back up with me. I would
love to hear what ended up happening and what steps
you're taking.
Speaker 7 (31:11):
Okay, so much.
Speaker 12 (31:14):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Thank you for Colin. I appreciate you. Well, that was
ask ye eight hundred and two ninety two fifty one fifty.
Just in case you couldn't get through, leave a message.
We'll answer your question that way and when we come back.
I'm excited because Deborah Roberts is going to be joining us.
You know, we've been talking about family and ask ye well.
She has a book out called Sisters Loved and Treasured,
(31:35):
Stories of Unbreakable Bonds.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
This book is amazing.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
You can hear from Shonda Rhyan's, Viola Davis, Barbara Bush,
Octavia Spencer, Connie Chung, so many different women on their
relationships with their sisters.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
And she's going to tell you all about it. It's
way up, y'all.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
I'm more way up with now.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
Is what's up? This way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Jasmine Brand is here and we're talking to We're Robberts,
New York Times bestselling author, journalists, ABC News twenty twenty, Dateline, NBC.
She also has a Peabody Award, and we're talking about
Sisters Loved and Treasured, her new book. I want to
ask you to about the news right now. Oh yeah,
there's a lot happening. Yeah, because I know it's a
(32:18):
tough situation being in the spot that you and we
need you there. But I'm also just concerned, like watching
so many things happening, so many shifts, so many things
like not able to be reported on in this way,
and people just kind of having to delicately.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Say things when they may want to scream it out
to say more.
Speaker 12 (32:37):
It's a very difficult time, and I think it's always
been a little bit difficult, I think for us in
the news industry, because at the end of the day,
we are in industry and we have corporate parents and
all of that. But it is a very different time.
But you know, there are people who are saying to me,
if you look back at the sixties and the seventies
and the tumult going on in the country, that was
also a very difficult time, and news mattered more than ever.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Now.
Speaker 12 (33:01):
We didn't have, you know, people trying to shut down
news organizations and silence and fo reporters and all of
that at that time, but there were efforts to push
back and to definitely silence reporting back in the sixties
and the seventies. So to some degree, we have been
there historically before, but we are in a very different
time because of social media and because of so many
(33:23):
other influences and platforms I think that surround us. It's
a very challenging time, and it's a very very challenging
time because what I really try to work and assert
myself about is truth and I think all reporters and
journalists are all about truth, and when people are picking
and choosing what they feel is truthful, that is very difficult.
(33:47):
I mean, I grew up in a time where if
you saw a report on Walter Cronkite on CBS or
in the New York Times or on sixty Minutes, and
you know it was obviously reported very well, you really
believe that that was something you needed to know about,
and it was truthful, and you believed it.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
You didn't think you had to fact check it.
Speaker 12 (34:05):
And the idea that people will doubt us, in doubt
our motives, in doubt our truth telling is very, very difficult.
So I think we just have to keep fighting the
fight and keep keep trying.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
That's how we need certain people in positions always. You know.
Right now I'm with Jasmine Brandon.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
We're talking to Deborah Roberts, the New York Times bestselling
author of Sisters Loved and Treasured. But you also know
her from ABC News, from Dateline, NBC, and from twenty twenty. Well,
this book, Sisters Loved and Treasured, I think is amazing
for the holidays.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Perfect timing. I know you time, Oh you know, I
don't go out the planner.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
You know, this is something that I think that you know, sisters,
your chosen ones, your blood sisters, your sisters you.
Speaker 1 (34:44):

Speaker 6 (34:50):

but definitely something that you guys should go and pick up.

Speaker 12 (35:00):

I'll shine books for you, but just pick up one
for you and one for your sister or your sister friend.
I do think you will just really enjoy these stories.

Happy holidays. A week off is crazy. I did a

was pretty amazing. Love to hear, Yeah it was.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
It was really good. The songs are good. I can't
get one of them out of my head.

But it's got a curse in it, so I can't
really fit it's fn Obamama. But anyway, it was really good.

three point one million dollars in pre seed funding for
a startup that he co founded called Series.

And he did all of this while he was at Yale.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
He's now preparing for a Series A funding while in
his senior years he works eighteen hour days.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
So basically what this does.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Series, it's an AI social networking platform and matches people
over I Message. And while he's doing all this still
being a student, he said, for as long as he
can remember, he's had an interest in technology and entrepreneurship.
In seventh grade, a technology teacher introduced him to linkbots,
and you can link together modular robots by programming them
to make them past a series of obstacle courses.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
He started doing this, think about this in seventh grade.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
So this is why early education and exposure is so important.
He ended up going to Yale, and then he spent
three weeks using Swift to do some coding to help
Freshman navigate orientation, and then he started a Founder series
podcast and then that's when he started doing these warm
introductions where a trusted mutual connection links to people to
(03:21):
meet their first investors, customers, and users. So that's how
we ended up doing it. I love a story like that. Now, Ryan,
who do you want to shine a light on?
Speaker 5 (03:29):
I want to shine a light on myself, Ryan, my
brothers on it in Amar. We are young entrepreneurs.

back right into it with your yee t and fifty
Cent his documentary about Diddy is being talked about. We'll
(04:19):
tell you what he had to say with Robin Roberts
about this, uh, this documentary, it's way up.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
They says the rules from the industry shade to all
of gossip out, saying that Angela's feeling that yet.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
It's way up and Angela yee yeh back baby made us.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
And let's get into some yet.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
So fifty cent has put out his trailer for the
Diddy documentary that he has coming out on Netflix tomorrow,
by the way, and a lot of people are wondering, well,
what is the issue that Diddy and fifty cent have,
or really that fifty cent has with Diddy.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
There's a lot of questions. I do want to say.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
On Media Takeout, fred is saying that he saw the
documentary and it's actually pretty fair and journalistic and not
necessarily the hit piece that people are assuming it's gonna be.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
But I haven't seen it.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
I want to see it before.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
All right, Well, they did film Diddy before he had
to turn himself in, and so that's all in this
documentary too.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
And so here is Diddy talking to his lawyer.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Listen, to me, I'm gonna get off the phone right now,
and I am going to let you professionals look at
the situation and come back to me with a solution.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
No matter what, No matter what nobody said, let's just.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
Get it there.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
Y'all are not working together the right way.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
We're losing, all right.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
In addition to that, fifty cent was on Good Morning
America with Robin Roberts and he talked about the fact
that he wasn't doing this as a hit piece or
to be petty.
Speaker 8 (05:53):
How do you respond to people who say that, But
it's more about the stain that you have for.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Sean Combs than it is for giving.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
The victims a platform.
Speaker 8 (06:01):
What they consider a pre existing b for twenty years
is me being uncomfortable with him suggesting that he takes
me shopping or I looked at it like he was
like it was like a tester, like maybe you'll come
play with me type of thing and stop personal.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
What do you think about that, man?
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Or if somebody a guy's like, let me take you shopping,
is that a tester or what is that?
Speaker 4 (06:23):
I don't think nobody will say nothing like that to me.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, what if they whispered it?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Stop playing with me.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Stop playing with me right now, say like you know, yeah,
you know, no, yes, definitely?
Speaker 1 (06:40):
So is that disrespectful?
Speaker 9 (06:42):
If like, why would you why would you be even
talking about Yeah, I don't even like where that's going, okay.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
All right.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
In addition to that, you know, Robin Roberts was asking
him about this whole trial with Diddy. Do you think
that means that hip hop culture was on trial?
Speaker 10 (06:59):
Do you think that hip hop culture was on trial
as much as Sean Combs was.
Speaker 8 (07:03):
If I didn't say anything, you would interpret it as
hip hop is fine with his behaviors because no one
else being vocal. So you would look at it and
just say, because that mind your business, or let me
not say nothing about nothing or those things that it
would allow an entire culture to register as if they're
for that behavior.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Look at you thinking about that?
Speaker 4 (07:26):
A lot of people had a lot to say.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah, a lot of people did.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
And I do want to also point out, and this
is called Seawan Colmbs The Reckoning. This documentary is a
four part series on Netflix tomorrow, directed by Alexandria Stapleton.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I saw Dame Dash also had some things to say.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Dame Dash actually called out fifty cents for doing this documentary,
and what he said was, never trust a black man
that will make a documentary tearing down another black man
for a white man. That's nasty work. I'm not playing
these ghetto games that's played out. But if you haven't
seen it, you don't even.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Know what you're saying. You don't really know. Maybe he's
not doing it all right.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Well, in addition to that, you know, fifty Cent talked
about what he thinks Diddy will think about this documentary.
Speaker 8 (08:11):
If Sean comes watches this, what do you think he's
gonna feel like, Wow, this is amazing.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
I think he's gonna say this is the best documentary
I've said it in a long time.
Speaker 8 (08:19):
You might feel a different way about pieces and bits
of it, but you know it's truth.
Speaker 5 (08:24):
I think he'll see you truth in it.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
You can't put out anything that's fake either, because you'll
get sued, like you.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
And so I'm sure that heat. Yeah, you gotta watch
it before you can judge it. And he also said,
fifty Cent said, what feud, I put two of his
kids in my scripted TV shows.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I just didn't like the fruity ish to me. What
he said. So that's basically his problem.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
All right, well that's your Yet when we come back
about last night where we discussed what we did last night,
we got questions, you know, we got questions.
Speaker 1 (08:53):

He's kept from it, and I think he's still in
a certain type of way.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
I understand that it's rare, but they are grown up
and they're not blood related, right, so I get that
it's a little, you know, it feels weird, but it's
not tech.

Speaker 5 (12:57):
They've been doing it for about six months.
Speaker 4 (12:59):

Of this society's view on what thing's supposed to be.
And just live your life the way it is, Like,
it's only messy.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
If they break up and then now they got to
see each other all the time. That's annoying, but you know,
life far.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Yeah, and they have to understand there's a lot more
at stake here, so they just have to move accordingly.
But you can't stop people from who they're in love with,

And when we come back, we got your y e.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
T Imagine inviting somebody over your house for the holidays
and then they don't go and talk ish about you
on the podcast.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
Oh wow.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Yeah, we'll tell you who did that and what the
response has been. Its way up.
Speaker 5 (14:55):
You're on the tease.
Speaker 8 (14:57):
She came here of seats.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
It's time to spiel that, yeah, that's different. It's way
up at Angela yea, I'm here with Maino. Oh man,
I know this is gonna make you so annoyed just
because of your your code of morals and ethics. But
recently this clip resurface of Trayvon Buaken, a former NFL player,
and he's talking about going to Russell Wilson's house for Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
This was on the House of Playmakers.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Here's what he said, Russell Wilson, I went to his
house for Thanksgiving.
Speaker 10 (15:29):
The word is felt like his mama wouldner, sisters, a wardener.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
Even if you don't.
Speaker 10 (15:34):
Fool with your family, it's still works me on Thanksgiving.
It's literally him Sierra, Sierra, daddy me, nooney, baby future,
theself in two nannies.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
So what why are you telling that number one? Why
weren't you with your family?
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Because he's saying if it was him right, he would
have flew his whole family in Thanksgivings.
Speaker 9 (15:55):
He's another man in his family on Thanksgiving and you
don't know what the situation is.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
This was so messy.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
What did anybody ask him that.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
No volunteer, that he volunteered this information?
Speaker 3 (16:08):
All right, now, Shannon Sharp and O to Senko immediately
had some things to say about it.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And here's what they have to say. Why is he
sharing information anyway?
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Now you see why I don't have a whole lot
of mofos at my house. See, he's worried about somebody else. Family,
your black ass there. He invited you, He looked at
you like families and what.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
You do turn around and volunteer information and nobody asked
you listen.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Shannon Sharp knows best, like, but this.
Speaker 9 (16:37):
Is the world we live in with does is just
telling stories just to just to have a viral club.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Can you imagine the violation of feeling like I let
you into my home then you just said you let
you have a good time, have you around my family?
And this is what you do? Yeah, well they let listen,
They let him have it on social media.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
I would never speak to him again.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Yeah life if he probably does right like that, that's that.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
And you know people are bringing up his past to
Trayvon Boykeen and arrest that he's had and things like that,
So you can do those googles all right now. T
Pain also was recently on Club Shaysha and one thing
that he did talk about was selling his catalog to
Harbor View Equity Partners. You know, people always talk about
I was selling this and you shouldn't sell it and
hold on to it.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Well, here's what he had to say.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Well made me sell my catalog.
Speaker 9 (17:25):
The amount of money that they gave me for my catalog,
it literally would have took me one hundred years to
make that money.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
I calculated it, and I was like, why would I
sell all?
Speaker 6 (17:37):
This?
Speaker 9 (17:37):
Would say, and they like, look, here's how much you're
making per year.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
All of this. We're going to give you one hundred
years worth of money right here, all at once.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Makes sense to me absolutely, And that money you can
invest and make even more so people always wonder why
do people need this? Well, sometimes that upfront money allows
you to make some amazing investments. Yes, that can continue
to grow. All right now, Moneylaw has stepped away from
the Boy's Mind tour that hasn't met health concerns that
she's had. She said, I'll truly miss seeing you all
(18:06):
out there, and I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity. And
she's been talking about that. She said it would be unsafe.
When she was up here. She was just discussing the
health issues that she has that prevent her from performing
for long periods of time. And Maya is officially now
on the Boy's Mind tour. So once money long left,
that's who is replacing her. So that's dope. So it's
still a great lineup, all right. When we come back,
(18:29):
we have.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Under the radar.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
These are the stories that are not necessarily in the headlines.
They're flying under the radar, but you need to know
about them. Man, Housing costs are soaring rising and right
now one place has a lot of fraud going on
when it comes to rental applications.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
We'll tell you what's happening. It's way up.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
News.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
This in the news that relates to you. These stories
are flying under the radar.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
It's way up.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
But Angela, Yeah, I'm here with Mayno man, listen, the
economy is so bad. The number of raudulent rental applications
is increasing nationwide, and that means that people are doing
like fake pay stubs and things like that to show
that they can actually afford these rentals. I in Atlanta
neighborhoods with the highest incidents of fake applications, they said
(19:16):
that roughly half of all submissions were flagged as fraudulent
that I.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
No, you can't do that, But then what happens when
you can't pay for.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
It when you get in there.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Well, they've actually started using doctored pay stuffs, fake employment letters,
even AI generated credit. But here's the thing, like, sometimes
you got to think about what you can afford. What
do they always say about thirty percent of your salary
should go towards your rent.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
And eventually it's going to catch up with you.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
So people have to think, like about what is realistic
because one of the most stressful things is not being
able to pay your bills.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I will tell you that from my own experiences.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
A right now, accused assassin Luigi Mangioni is in court
today in New York City.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Get on a suit. I'm twenty seven years old. Now
you remember who he is?
Speaker 5 (20:09):
Right?
Speaker 4 (20:09):
They shot down that man over there by that hotel
over there was.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
That United Healthcare.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Yes, he executed the head allegedly of healthcare giant United
health Care that was around the corner from where we
are right now. So he has a hearing that's expected
to last a week. And what this hearing is about
is whether or not the police breached his rights by
questioning him and searching his backpack before getting a warrant.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Now this is important because this is our pre trial.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
So if the judge sides with the defense, he could
then borrow them from showing jerors the key evidence that
cops found inside the backpack, which was the murder weapon,
a notebook where he also allegedly explained his motives. And
so he's facing separate federal charges in a case where
prosecutors have taken the step of asking for the death penalty.
(20:58):
But this is just to see if this evidence we'll
be able to be used. So we'll see in about
a week what's gonna happen with him.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
That was a wild, wild situation. When that yeah, when.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
That happens on him, would have never got caught.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Oh the backpack, yeah yeah. But the thing is, are
they how they gonna get a warrant? You know what
I'm saying. But I guess there's steps you have to take.
So we'll see what the judge decides. All right, Well,
that is your that is your under the radar. When
we come back, we do have the way it mixed
for you at the top of the hour, Plus we
got a special guest joining us, my girl Deborah Roberts
is gonna be here. She's an amazing journalist. She also
(21:37):
has a new book out. She's a New York Times
bestselling author already. But sisters loved and treasured stories of
unbreakable bonds, and you're gonna love this.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
This is just in time for the holidays. It's way up.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
She's like to talk like they Jalie Jean, like they
Jalie Jean.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
All this is yaky, way.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Yeah, it's way up in and like, yeah, I'm here,
We're main o Mayna, it's been in anato check. I
do have the iFIT app on my phone if we
ever want to do some workouts in here.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
By the way, oh.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
These they can't do fifty pushups though.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Oh all right, well let's see with I fit, because we.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Could do like some yogas, some you know, get your
blood flowing. All right, well, let's get into some of this.
Yet I thought this was really cute. So Lil Wayne
and Toya interviewed Regine, their daughter that they have together,
and she talked about a lot of different things, and
one of the things she talked about was her parents
getting divorced and how did that affect her.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Listen to this. Obviously, your dad and I didn't stay together.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
How would you say us, you know, getting a divorce
that affected you.
Speaker 11 (22:44):
I was so young, so it really didn't affect me much.
I really I was sad. I mean yeah, but the
older I got, y'all co parents is so well, like
it never affected me to a way. Was like, dang,
I don't see my parents or I want my parents together.
I've always spent a time with my mom, spend time
with my dad. Like y'all did that?
Speaker 4 (23:02):
Co parents and steff I love their relationship mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
And I think it's important because sometimes it's worse for
kids to see their parents not get along but stay
together than it is for them to be.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Able to co parent.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Well, it's not harmony all right now. Another thing that
she talked about was, you know, Lil Wayne does have
other kids by different women. She was the only child
for such a long time. Here's what she had to
say about the other moms. Which one of your daddy's
baby mama was, is your favorite?
Speaker 1 (23:30):
When I was younger, my favor was like NI used
to really play with you.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
Oh.
Speaker 11 (23:35):
I still love them to this day, but like now
that I get older, my sad queen twin like Lauren,
there you go.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
That's dope.
Speaker 10 (23:43):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
I wish I could do something like that.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Well you could.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I don't know if it's going to go this well,
but I would love I would tune in. And her
podcast is called Airtime. H E I R Airtime, So yes,
I love that for her though, And what a great
sit down interview to have. You can do it all
right now Bernaboys us show. Some of them have been canceled.
Tonight was actually supposed to be in Chicago and Ticketmaster
(24:10):
announced the last minute cancelation on Thursday. You know, tour
organizers did not give a specific reason for the cancelation,
but people are talking about the public criticism that he
got after he made a couple leave because the woman
fell asleep during his performance and the woman was grieving
a recent loss, and so people felt like that was
(24:32):
rude for him to do that after they spent their money.
But he has doubled down and defended himself for why
he did that.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
So he didn't apologize. So the apology that.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
We saw it was he it was kind of a
weird apology.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
He basically was like, sorry if I'm wrong, but I
don't think that I am. And then he was saying,
I'm not a stripper, so you don't just throw money
at me and think I'm supposed to do whatever.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Like the end, he was talking about.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
The energy and people falling asleep at the show and
if I was a teacher and you were disturbing the class,
you would have to leave, you know.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
So he kind of compared to that.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
So yes, but it's affecting, said, I saw people also
doing this thing where they were posting video of themselves
at his shows.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
Asleep and sleep challenge.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Yeah, they were doing like a sleep challenge. It shows
that would be a good time for him to be like,
let me apologize to this woman, let me bring her out,
let me make it up. I think that would be
a good time to do something like that, to turn
something bad into something positive.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
But that's just my thoughts, all right.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
He was also doing this whole thing with free coffee
for people that come to his shows to keep them awake. Okay,
all right, well that is your yet and when we
come back it's a Monday.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
You know what we need. We need some man ovation.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
You've been giving a lot of gems on let's wrap
about it. So let's hear somet's way up. It's way up. Yeah,
and it's a Monday, that's right, and let's wrap about it.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Maato's here.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Hey, let's go, let's do it Monday. Today's man ovention
I will say is you have to manage your expectations. Right.
So it's like the cold the principles that you set
for yourself off off for you, right, you may not
get that in return. So just because you may be
a lower person doesn't mean that the person you're being
(26:17):
loyal to is going to be sharing the same view, right,
But those.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Are your views, right.
Speaker 9 (26:23):
You can't expect the same out of everything. You can't
expect because of the way you are. That automatically translate
to people being the same way. Right. So, but but
you do you're not doing it for that, well, you're
right doing it for you.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Expectations, they say, there's a fine line between expectations.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
And reality, right, because you get hurt.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Yeah, and you will get your feelings hurt the times.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
But expectations can also make you work really hard because
you expect that when I do this.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
But sometimes you can't control the outcome.
Speaker 9 (26:54):
You can't control you don't know where somebody else is at.
You don't know where somebody else moral code is at.
You don't know somebody else. You know where they draw
the line between business and personal right. So the only
thing you can do is live the way you live,
whatever is your line, whatever is your code, stick to that.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
You know.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
It's also hard to because we also want to manifest things,
and we talk about that, and I feel like sometimes
we want to manifest these high expectations. I'm going to
be CEO one day, my business is going to succeed.
But sometimes the reality is there's things that are out
of our control and that doesn't happen.
Speaker 9 (27:30):
But you got better control of you and your path
than somebody else's. Yeah, expect expect nothing to gain the world, brother.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
All right?
Speaker 4 (27:37):
We let it.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Yeah, And there's a lot of links between expectation and performance.
And sometimes expectations can make you be more motivated and
go harder but.
Speaker 9 (27:48):
Right, But then when it doesn't live up to your
expect expectation, you fall from the roof harder.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Some things are unrealistic, all right, but love it so
just that when you go to the still club, do
not have expectations.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Just what else? Some baby when we come.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Back, ask Yee, and my expectation is that Mana was
an award winning advice giver, winning advice giver, so eight
hundred two nine two fifty one fifty. I know you
need us, just like Rihanna needed me.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
It's way up with.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Its relationship for Kreer advice. Angela's dropping facts, so you
should you should know.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
This is ask what's up? His way up in Angela Yee.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
I'm here with the award winning advice giving maino to
ask Yee and we have an anonymous caller on the
line and she is just basically not getting along with
her mom, and she's ready to cut her off.
Speaker 7 (28:38):
I'm in a my mom. She's so she's just getting
more and more out of Podget. When I do move,
I'm putting a tier like I'm trying to man out
her relationship from when I was a kid. But for me, okay,
my mom didank and she never wants to talk about it.
(29:03):
She never want to go through She want to forget
about the First.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Of all, thank you for sharing that with us.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Sometimes what we need to do is things for ourselves,
not necessarily for your mom, but it feels like for
you there's these feelings you have that you can't even
express to her because she's not willing to hear it. Right,
She's got her own demons, her own issues. Have you
spoken to anybody outside of family, like a professional.
Speaker 7 (29:29):
Usually about this?
Speaker 1 (29:32):
I think you need to.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Talk to somebody that's not a family member, somebody that's
a professional, because sometimes people are too close to the
situation and that doesn't make it any better either. And
you need to learn some tools that you can use
to deal with family and to deal with your mother.
I don't want you to feel like you're alone in this.
I don't want you to have these feelings of resentment
(29:53):
that you have because it feels like that's weighing you down.
And you know what, it would help your mom too,
But I feel like you need to work on yourself
first and then be able to bring her in.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
That's definitely a good idea and good advice. And I've
been trying to find some free therapy because right now
I do have insurance, but I definitely do that.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
There's definitely resources available. I'm doing a little research.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
There's also online counseling that you can have and group sessions.
There's a lot of free resources that are available or
really like low cost ones where you don't have to
go in person.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
You can go online. You can find somebody.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
To talk to that's still a credited So I just
think that's important for you to do that and find
somebody who you can talk to because that can actually
give you some tangible things that you can do.
Speaker 7 (30:43):
I agree with you.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
I think if you need to take a break from
your mom, do that. I saw Oprah was talking about that,
this whole being estranged from family and things like that.
But I just don't want this to be something that
affects you as a burden on you, because you know
they always say forgiveness is for yourself, not for the
other person.
Speaker 7 (31:03):
Yeah, I agree, all.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Right, So please follow back up with me. I would
love to hear what ended up happening and what steps
you're taking.
Speaker 7 (31:11):
Okay, so much.
Speaker 12 (31:14):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Thank you for Colin. I appreciate you. Well, that was
ask ye eight hundred and two ninety two fifty one fifty.
Just in case you couldn't get through, leave a message.
We'll answer your question that way and when we come back.
I'm excited because Deborah Roberts is going to be joining us.
You know, we've been talking about family and ask ye well.
She has a book out called Sisters Loved and Treasured,
(31:35):
Stories of Unbreakable Bonds.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
This book is amazing.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
You can hear from Shonda Rhyan's, Viola Davis, Barbara Bush,
Octavia Spencer, Connie Chung, so many different women on their
relationships with their sisters.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
And she's going to tell you all about it. It's
way up, y'all.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
I'm more way up with now.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
Is what's up? This way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Jasmine Brand is here and we're talking to We're Robberts,
New York Times bestselling author, journalists, ABC News twenty twenty, Dateline, NBC.
She also has a Peabody Award, and we're talking about
Sisters Loved and Treasured, her new book. I want to
ask you to about the news right now. Oh yeah,
there's a lot happening. Yeah, because I know it's a
(32:18):
tough situation being in the spot that you and we
need you there. But I'm also just concerned, like watching
so many things happening, so many shifts, so many things
like not able to be reported on in this way,
and people just kind of having to delicately.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Say things when they may want to scream it out
to say more.
Speaker 12 (32:37):
It's a very difficult time, and I think it's always
been a little bit difficult, I think for us in
the news industry, because at the end of the day,
we are in industry and we have corporate parents and
all of that. But it is a very different time.
But you know, there are people who are saying to me,
if you look back at the sixties and the seventies
and the tumult going on in the country, that was
also a very difficult time, and news mattered more than ever.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Now.
Speaker 12 (33:01):
We didn't have, you know, people trying to shut down
news organizations and silence and fo reporters and all of
that at that time, but there were efforts to push
back and to definitely silence reporting back in the sixties
and the seventies. So to some degree, we have been
there historically before, but we are in a very different
time because of social media and because of so many
(33:23):
other influences and platforms I think that surround us. It's
a very challenging time, and it's a very very challenging
time because what I really try to work and assert
myself about is truth and I think all reporters and
journalists are all about truth, and when people are picking
and choosing what they feel is truthful, that is very difficult.
(33:47):
I mean, I grew up in a time where if
you saw a report on Walter Cronkite on CBS or
in the New York Times or on sixty Minutes, and
you know it was obviously reported very well, you really
believe that that was something you needed to know about,
and it was truthful, and you believed it.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
You didn't think you had to fact check it.
Speaker 12 (34:05):
And the idea that people will doubt us, in doubt
our motives, in doubt our truth telling is very, very difficult.
So I think we just have to keep fighting the
fight and keep keep trying.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
That's how we need certain people in positions always. You know.
Right now I'm with Jasmine Brandon.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
We're talking to Deborah Roberts, the New York Times bestselling
author of Sisters Loved and Treasured. But you also know
her from ABC News, from Dateline, NBC, and from twenty twenty. Well,
this book, Sisters Loved and Treasured, I think is amazing
for the holidays.

don't go out the planner.
