into financial game for him because heposts them not just on Instagram. He

I thought you were working at aschool or something like that. I
(09:09):

one hundred percent into and that's whenit happens for you. There's there's like

Like trends, I don't, butthey they they easy. Yeah,
you know what I'm saying, Theeasy to do, like I'm from me

(10:54):
prayer. Y'all pray and ask theLord if y'all can hear the pre and

You do it? So when peoplecome up to you on the street,
do people notice you? Now?Probably like like eighty eighty five percent
of the time, So now they'relike, oh, this is Jeremy dude
Jackson. They know who you are. I love it though, because it's
(12:45):
it's letting me know, like I'mactually doing something. Yeah, yeah,
it is, it really is.At first At first what at first?
I was like, oh my god, because I'm really like a closed you
kind of you know, Eddie Murphycalls it recluse, So you kind of
recluse. It's kind of a personwho's to themselves a lot, you know,
(13:11):
like a lot of attention all thatkind of stuff, and it's hard
to be a celebrity and be likethat. Yeah, so you kind of
reclusee. But no, you haveto come on out that show, you
come on out honeys. Uh sointrovert kind of but yeah, you know,
you got to be a social butterfly. Jeremy, do I have to?
Well you don't have to, Actuallyyou don't. It's just completely up
(13:35):
to you. When they say action, I can get you into it,
you get into it because you reallydo a lot of skits. Okay,
give me a tip for say,for instance, it's me and I want
to start my own social media pageand do something uh kind of different like
what you're doing. What do yousuggest that I give me some tips that
you use yourself when it comes tocontent on social media. I say,
(13:58):
is stick with what you know,whatever come to your mind, like what
you interested in yourself? Just youknow, do what your own type of
way like. And when you getideas, just write them down, put
them in your notes, okay,okay, okay. And and what platforms
(14:20):
should we? Should we do allplatforms or just stick with I believe,
so you believe? Yeah, doall of them. You never know which
one to pick up your content andstart, you know. Okay, So
you may be big on Facebook andnot so big on Instagram. I got,
I got, I got my myway off TikTok TikTok tok. I
(14:41):
got like two hundred k followers.Oh wow, yeah, and that's when
when when TikTok did it for me, that's when I took it to I
G. Oh so you started theirfirst yeah, I G. They all
got different vibes you know what I'msaying, And probably algorithms too, yeah
okay, so and different peop people. You're right because what what might be
big on TikTok may not be bigon I G. What might be big
(15:05):
on Instagram may not be big onFacebook. But you're big on all those
platforms. Yeah, okay, notbig, but you know uh huh,
you know you're there. You're growingand that. Yeah, growing, Yeah,
continue to build. Okay, Nowdo you do longer form uh you
know videos and put those on YouTubeand put part of the video on other
(15:26):
platforms? Do you do that?I have started to do sketches for YouTube.
That's when they like probably like fiveminutes long, like real production.
H I have started doing it.Okay, good? Good. So is
that something that you would tell peoplethat if this is something they want to
do to get, you know,just become more and more involved in doing
(15:46):
more things and getting into it likethat. Yeah. Yeah, It's it's
kind of hard to go into detailabout certain things if it ain't no specific
questions, you know what I'm saying. So because social media has opened up
so broad now, like from twentytwenty when when it was like a small
(16:07):
street, now it's like like abouttwenty five expressways, it's like people going
everywhere and everywhere. Yeah. Yeah, And so Robin, do you give
him tips when it comes to thosethings or do you just let him be
the brains behind that as well socialmedia as well. I let him be
(16:29):
the brains. But if he ksfor my opinion on something, I try
to give the best advice that Ican. But as far as like everything
else, he he got it.He got he the producer, really right,
he do it all. Wow,Rick, you do it all?
Do it okay? Okay? Andyou like playing that role, just being
(16:51):
the person that comes in when whenyou say come in that kind of thing.
You like that. Yeah, I'mfine with that. I love it
though, because I just like seeingy'all together doing stuff, because you're in
almost everything that he does. It'smy favorite. It's my favorite person to
work with. Yeah, and asit should be. Yeah, yeah,
but I love that. I loveseeing that, Okay, y'all. So
(17:11):
I know y'all probably wondering about theprayer video that they did, so let
me let y'all hear. Uh.This is when the family pray together and
God, we just thank you forour friends and our family and our home.
Lord God. And I know we'vebeen busy every day, but if
you would just put cutting the grasson our minds, God, I just
(17:38):
I just want to quickly add,you know, just put it on our
hearts, just to cook and cleanon our hearts. God. God.
Also just so sometimes we just needa sign that work out, you know,
and being on the phone of time. Now, that sounds like a
(18:04):
real situation at y'all house, thatone of them, just one of them
real Mary people know. That's whatmy daughter said. I said it to
my daughter and she said, that'sjust like me and my husband. I
was like, oh my god,I can't tell you how many times I
watched that. I can't tell youhow many times I watch that. And
(18:25):
I can't tell you how many timesI watched the one, the Halloween one,
the one with y'all. Were wereyou Tina and Ike or what were
y'all? We was portraying marn andJina being oh, okay, see I
missed that. Yeah, stuff likethat, like do to like one more?
He like one of my favorites,Like that's the reason why I do
(18:48):
skids. So yeah, more ina big inspiration when it comes to us
and social media for those of usthat are new to it, how many
times do you say or what yousay that you should post and when are
the best times to post? Doyou figure that out for yourself or is
(19:08):
there a diagram or something that youuse personally? Yeah, so it's a
diagram I use personally, Like Igo off the vibe of the app at
the time, because like you can'tgo and look up search specific times,
specific days, not many days.But if you want to test it at
(19:29):
yourself, you know what I'm saying, test it for yourself. See what
days you want to break If youwant to break in though, you gotta
you gotta be prison, you gottado it. When you say present,
does that mean I gotta put postthree four times a day? And I
ain't even if you can get ifyou can have some quality content you post
like if you if don't nobody knowyour name right now, you got like
(19:51):
zero followers, I say, postevery day. Quality. If it's quality
content, post it every day.Okay, gotta post three or four times
a day. Just post every day? Okay every day? Yeah, until
people start tapping in. Okay,and then when people start tapping in then
you can kind of get more intogo harder. So for now, for
you guys, how many times doyou post? See at this point,
(20:15):
I'm I'm working on a lot ofstuff. I'm working on my own produce.
I'm working on YouTube longer, longersketches. So yeah, I got
this this schedule and go sit I'mworking on so I'm trying to see how
they, you know, work withit. So okay, okay, I'm
doing like an experiment with my postingright now. Okay, put me in
(20:37):
coach. I've been I've been waitingon you. We gotta get we gotta
get you a sound little contract becauseI don't. I don't got inssurance.
What Okay, I'm down. Youheard your sell it up up? Okay,
I'm fine with that. What else? That's it? Do I get
paid? You're gonna probably work forfree the first Okay, I'm calling that
(21:00):
to the FIRS. I'm cool withthat. Twenty twenty. I thought you're
gonna say five twenty. So Robin, do you get paid? Oh?
I don't because I'm not on socialmedia like he is. But g you
are, Yes, you are,baby, you and all of his skits,
(21:22):
all of them. My wife,you know, I take care of
my Fani. See she get paid. I get paid Valentine what you get
for Valentine's Day? No, don'tdon't tell them the South, don't tell
them. Don't do that. Okay, Okay, Well, I love it.
I love it the skits that seemto because I see you do these
(21:44):
quite a bit where you're being thedude that work in the yard. They
love, they love miss Johnson,Missus Johnson, Miss Johnson is something else,
missus Johnson. Okay, so yeah, so are those the ones that
you've done quite a bit like that? Are those? Is there going to
be like a continuation of those characterslike the cop character with country wine?
(22:07):
Uh huh? He said, hedo continuous you know, skis and stuff
like that, and this. Thisgenius really because people like to follow storylines,
and we really do and this andMissus Johnson. It's like a storyline
type of feel, it really is. Yeah. Yeah, I've been I've
been tapping into that ladies. Yeah, okay. And the cop one,
(22:30):
the one where you play the cop, the tective. Yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah yeah. You're doingit, man, you're doing it
up you live on social media.Yeah you got to come off for that.
Oh you're right, you're right,You're right. Bye, y'all.
He'll be back, he'll be back. Yeah. Yeah, it's all good.
(22:52):
It's all good. I meant toask you that a long time ago,
but it's all good. It's thisis live TV, y'all, so
I mean TV radio. But ifyou follow Jeremy on social media. You
can see him and you can seehim, you know, live on social
media when he wasn't supposed to be. We're trying to save the sauces.
(23:12):
We want him to listen for something. Jeremy and you over there giving everything
away. But the world that's allright, that's okay, it's all good.
But that's a part of social mediatoo, and for a lot of
people that's listening. Do you haveto be when it comes to your skits?
Are you careful about making sure thatyou know when you do have other
(23:37):
people in make it? Like yousaid, if I come to do it,
you're gonna make me sign something.Is that serious? Are you serious?
Okay, you're not serious about that, But are you conscious when you
are doing I don't see a lotof people in your skit? Is that
on purpose? Like I don't seeyou in crowds a lot and stuff like
that. Is that on purpose?It is not on purpose in the effect,
it's on purpose in like when Ifirst started, I couldn't get people
(24:00):
to really I couldn't really rely onpeople. Yeah, so that's why I
really stay concealed with who I workwith, because if I need you,
I need you right away. Yeah, yeah, kind of like I remember
I was with you Famous Amous,and Brandon played too much when y'all did
(24:22):
the skit y'all did a skit forthe Classic. I was the camera person,
by the way, and I don'tremember getting a dime for that,
but I was glad to do it. I was behind the scenes, you
know. And when you guys dothat, like those guys because they're big
on social media as well, Soyou kind of have to make sure all
(24:45):
of y'all schedules can get together,because you know, I think Brandon may
have a job, and so yougot to plan around his schedule. Famous
SAMs is all over the place.Yes, you got to plan around his
schedule. And then that's how ishow difficult is it? Like I said
in the beginning, when no one, when nobody believe in you, no
(25:06):
managing your team. You gotta beall your heads. Yeah, you got
to be the producer. You gottabe the director of the cameraman, the
actors. Yeah, you got toreach out to people and sit a schedule.
So it's it's if you really wantit. You're not doing this for
fun. I'm not doing this forfun. I'm doing this to take care
of my family and to perhaps beon TV, in the movie, on
(25:30):
stage. It's coming. I believeit's coming out. I believe it's probably
closer than you think. Yeah,I believe in God. I know it's
coming. Yeah. Because you're areally good actor and a lot of this
it's believable. That's probably why people, you know, look at your stuff
so much. I mean, yougot I'm telling you just y'all just got
to go see him on social mediaand just see how many people follow him.
(25:51):
But I'm gonna tell you one ofmy favorites. And I don't know
if you've replayed that bad boy forFather's Day, it looks like you did
this. This, y'all, isone of my This thing is so funny.
I think I played it five orsix times to listen to this year.
(26:12):
You laying on the couch and shethrew you some socks. The oh
my goodness, Oh my goodness,she threw some socks a time at a
(26:34):
card h Oh my goodness. Ithink I saw that one last year because
I was just scrolling through your stuffand I saw that one and I hollered,
and I think I said I playedthat one a thousand times too,
(26:55):
because it's like funny every time youend it short. So is that a
key to when your first starting todo and make sure they're short so that
people can watch them more because peopleare prone to watch and skid more on
social media. If it's short,yeah, yes, and no uh huh.
Yeah, it's just something that justkind of happened. But if it's
short and it's good, of course, everybody attention span so short nowadays,
(27:18):
so if it's shortening, it's good. Yeah, it's gone. Yeah,
it's gonna go crazy. Yeah.Yeah. That one you got twenty one
thousand, eight hundred and eighty onelikes a ton of comments. I usually
do. I don't know if Icommented with some laughs on that one or
not, but I'm just telling youyou guys. Oh and the one where
you were, uh the inspector shecalled you because she had something in the
(27:45):
house. You came into the garage, uh to I guess you were the
pet pet of the past control.Yes, lord, I hollered. It
seemed like you got my notifications.I know, but I get them all
the time every time. Every timeyou Brandon and generally famous same it's usually
(28:06):
when they do whenever y'all post stuff. It's right there. When I get
open the phone, it's right there. Every time I don't look at shouty.
You gotta picture on your wife righthere. Happy birthday, beautiful baby.
I made sure it was her birthday. Let me get out rightday to
(28:37):
let me love that right now andsay happy birthday. That is seventy two
weeks old. Though. Okay,I love it. I do, I
really I do. Yeah, Ilove it. So give me, give
me some a few more tips becausewe got to get out of here.
So give me a few more tipsfor the people before you go that you
can think of off maybe off thetop of your head. Maybe go hard,
(29:04):
m hm, go hard, gohard. Believe in yourself. M
h. It's just so many outhere in this world today. It's just
like if you if you want todo content, just do it, like,
don't don't second guess yourself. LikeI help people, like oh you
(29:25):
do, Yeah, I help people. I got I got people this that
want to get into you know,content creating, so I do help them
get and stuff like that. Butit's you just gotta do it. Yeah,
gotta believe in yourself. You gottawhatever idea you got, you gotta
somebody gonna like it. It mightnot be if you're trying to pray yourself
to me, it might not bemy fan base. But I think that's
(29:48):
the worst thing you can do whenit comes to social social media is compare
yourself with other people. Is It'snot wise. I mean, the Bible
says it's not wise, period,but especially when it comes to social media.
Because somebody might be and more likesthan you. That don't mean nothing.
It really don't mean nothing. Youknow, you got to find your
likes, and your likes may bedifferent. Just like you said from everybody
else. You got to find yourlane and play it mm hm on social
(30:12):
media. That's that's that's what itis. Man. The other one that
really got me was this one righthere, how the groom b when the
bride is coming. I think Isaw this on a social another social media
platform. Somebody grabbed that and postedthat. I hollered again when you fell
(30:37):
