Breaking Down the Breakdown

International comedian (and Law School graduate) Tehran Von Ghasri joins Leah as they break down the W-T & F of the Oscars' 'Slap heard round the world.' Spoiler alert: The discussion got almost as heated as the actual moment itself. 

Plus the hot topics: A horrific event at an Orlando Amusement park, an argument over a wig that led to gunfire (you read that right) and a family get-together turns tragic.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hello everyone, and welcome back to another episode of Real
Time Crime. I'm your host Leah Lamar, and I have
with me of course as always sometimes Dmitri Hello, Dmitri, Hello,
how are you? I'm okay. I just canceled a thing
and it wasn't a person. Thank you, tarn Um. We're
gonna introduce our guests in just a second. But I
am going crazy with n F t l A events

(00:35):
and meeting lots of anonymous people in real life now,
which is hilarious because I thought I was never going
to be able to meet them, which is a crime.
So you're meeting people at these events and you're just
all standing around to gotta go on. So what the Yeah,
So it's a bunch of people who scam each other.
That's It's a one big crime ring. But we all
just wear nice clothes. That's all that it is. Yeah, alright,

(00:55):
just just a quick little rundown of what we're gonna
be talking about today. We'll be talking about nine on
one call revealing a boy falling to his death from
a theme park ride. Will also be discussing a woman
being arrested for shooting another woman over a wig. So
many questions already, and of course we'll be talking about

(01:18):
this laugh that heard around the world. Will Smith and
Chris Rock Dmitri, are you ready for me to introduce
our guests. I am okay, you guys, you're in for
a real treat today because this man is one of
my favorite human beings. And not only is he hilarious,
but you'll see he's a sweet then spicy. He'll say
something that seems extremely profound and then at the last

(01:40):
minute turn it into some sort of joke where you
hate yourself and also love yourself at the same time,
and then retell it to other people. And don't give
him credit. He is a comedian and yeah, yeah, yeah,
he's an actor. Well it's hard for me to steal
his jokes. You'll see why in just a second. We're
could not be more opposite as human beings. Um, but
he's an Indian actor, host, TV and radio personality. He

(02:03):
headlines all around not just the country, but the world.
And he also went to law school, which is going
to be a very interesting m It will just be
interesting to have him on the podcast talking about crime
since he's been to law school and Dmitri, now, I
obviously don't know anything about the law. We just whoa,
how do you know I've never been in law school.

(02:24):
You would have brought it up on Namitri. That's a
good point. Okay, thank you, damn it uh. Tehran von
Gasri is one of my favorite people. He's half black,
half Persian and he will never let you forget it. Tarran,
thank you so much, So glad to be here with
Leo Lamar. Hello, Ri. Dmitri is my nemesis. Dmitri is

(02:50):
my nemesis. He's the anti Tehran. I'm not sure how
that would he because I have no hair and you
have just dripping down your head of hair, like you
can't even eveen under your hat. It's not just hair.
You're also like nice and you're kind and you care.
I'm over you. I think you've got the wrong impression
of Demitri. We can fix that. On the outside. I

(03:11):
already know Dmitri on the outside is this tough nose,
hard ass. But on the inside, squishy teddy bear. Squishy
teddy bear. Have we met before? Like I never unless
this episode was gonna be dissecting me. It's a psycho
analysis of you. It's the second analyse of you. It's
actually this isn't true crime. This is Dr Phil and

(03:32):
I'm here to tell you who you damn it. It's
intervention time. I knew it was coming anyway back to me,
if that's okay. So just so everyone's aware, if you
can't see the clips that we're posting, Tehran is in
his home studio. He's wearing a hat with his name
on it, and in the background he has multiple photos
of himself and pop art form and and it's kind

(03:54):
of inception photos because in the photos of himself he's
wearing a sweatshirt with a photo of himself on it.
This is true and I'm also wearing I'm also wearing. Uh,
my bottoms have my pictures on them too, and so
do my my underwear. Listen, the point is this, If
you guys haven't already noticed, Tarran and I know each
other very well. We haven't been friends for seven six years.

(04:17):
I feel like it's been longer. It feels like eternity,
kind of like the tenth level bell. But it's fine.
It's fine. Leo Lamar. By the way, to me, so
he said we weren't going to get along, You're making
a lot of sense here. To Leo Lamar, is the
anti you right, soft and squashy on the outside, deep
down inside, dead, dead on the inside. I'm letting you
know that now dead on the inside and willing to
murder all of us, willing to murder all of us.

(04:40):
I don't want to the airport if I asked, would
pick me up from the airport if I asked? Which
is crazy to me? Which is crazy? I'll say this
he Tarran has picked me up from the airport once
and he said never again. Never, never again. The fact
that I've ever done that, I actually that was one
of my denied till I die once and I cried
in the whole car ride home, and I pretended it

(05:01):
was because of my family, but it was because he
was mean to me. This is really shaping up to
be quite an episode that's gonna be. This is it's
already a true crime by the way, I feel that
Leo Lamar has me on this because she's like, oh
the law background is, She's like, and also he's committed
crimes like I felt like, you know, what's so funny.

(05:21):
I didn't even tell them that you've been to jail. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
I didn't even tell them I've been to did you
have to Well, I'm a person of color in the
United States of America. Let's be very real. By the way,
I don't get to do that. You don't get every
comedian I've had on this podcast. Uh, Janna's papas, who's

(05:41):
not a comedian of color who's also been to jail? Um,
But Mark Norman not a comedian of color. Who's every
single comedian who's been on the podcast has been to jail.
Daphnique Springs, Mark Norman, Um, Janna's props. But the ones
of color have all been innocent, le A Lamar, The
ones of color have all been innocent. Once, iime, once
you said you went to law school, I was like, Oh,
that's just so he can, you know, get himself out

(06:03):
of the ship he's getting himself into. Thank you Dmitri
for understanding me. You're still my nemesis, but in a
good way, kind of like how the Batman needs the Joker.
You know, It's all right, we need each other. Yet
and yet again, you guys are meeting in prison or
an insane asylum. It's hard to say which one. At
this point. This is awesome. Yeah, you guys are being

(06:25):
held hostage at this point. This is just Stockholm syndrome.
I think Dmitri has been locked into this podcast. And
here's language that's actually my love language, Stockholm Central. That's
how I that's how I find potential mates. Yeah, like,
how did I even get into Tehron's car? I don't
know why, but I'm not leaving it. Um T why
did you go to jail? Um? I want to throw

(06:48):
I want to throw out. I want to throw out
the term. But the the legal which is the first
time I've seen you freeze and answering any time. Yeah,
because this is because this is a legal question. You're
to have to speak to my lawyer. I need are
you your lawyer? Whenever I have a conversation, lawyer, I
need my lawyer. You just turn your hat backwards? Is
that how that worked? His lawyer had has a picture

(07:11):
of him in a suit. I wear many different hats.
But yes, there are many different times than many different reasons.
But you know, it's all things that are behind me.
I've never been convicted of any crime. I've been convicted
of any crime. I want to point that out, and
I just want American note, They're safe with me. You
are safe at home. Wait, by the wait, I don't
find I don't find myself compelling or believable right now.

(07:33):
So I'm getting to I'm going to jail. I'm guilty.
This is a guilty verdict right now, thank you. So
I just want to let you know all the other
comedians have fully told the story of the time that
they went to jail. It just seems like you're holding
that because what what did Mark Norman go to jail for?
One day? I was jaywalking and then he went to
the drunk tank. Yeah, after I did another late night show.

(07:56):
You know, I'm saying, like, what did Mark Norman? What
could they have gotten in trouble for? You know? So alright,
so we know now it's probably sensitive material. Yeah, because
you're the response was I'd like to just say I
didn't do it. I did wasn't my fault. Okay, calm down.
I did not with that woman. Listen. It's just one
of those things. It's life, you know. But we've moved on.

(08:18):
We've moved on, you know. Oh, Jason and Bill Clinton
just naming black people. Leo Lamar, I feel like Dmitri
say something, say something, your nemesis. He's on my team.
Now the COO needs help all of a sudden. And
see how long you've been doing comedy? Who got you started?

(08:39):
I've been doing comedy for and and this is the
COVID years really placed that two year extra addition. But
I've been doing comedy for twelve years now, twelve years,
and I want to only say ten, but it's been twelve.
And it's just, uh, it's a hard thing. It's a
hard thing to reconcile with oneself. Yeah, and what got

(09:00):
you into comedy? Uh? That actually goes back to the
crime question. That's actually that really goes back to the
crime question. But I was as I was graduating as
I as I was graduating law school, I was trying
to figure out what was my next move. And actually,
what was really interesting is there's a comedian named Mikey Winfield,
who I know Leil Lamar is very familiar with, but

(09:22):
for those of you who aren't, he's a very charismatic,
wonderful comedian of color, with great brown skin and an
amazing smile. And I turned on the TV and saw
him doing comedy and I literally thought to myself, if
this guy can do this, I can do it too.
And that's what got me into comedy. I feel like
he'll hate hearing this. He's heard it many times. He's

(09:43):
heard it many times. So thank you to everybody that's
been part of my comedy journey, including the wonderful Leo Lamar,
who was the reason I got on Clubhouse, the reason
I got on Clubhouse. Yeah, and Clubhouse has been terrorized
ever since. They actually have spoken to Lee in regards
to that. Why anyway, if we could just keep this

(10:05):
moving right along and really appreciate that. Okay, you guys,
it's start for us to get into our hot topics
for this week. This one is pretty sensitive. I mean,
I'm sure a lot of you've already heard about this story,
and I will give you the scoop, But apparently Tyree Sampson,
fourteen years old of St. Louis, Missouri, died after slipping

(10:25):
out of his seat on the free Fall ride at
around eleven pm on Thursday. The teenager wasting visiting Central
Florida on a football program trip with his friends family.
When asked by the operator how far up the team
was when he fell, the woman replied, I'm not sure,
but it's the new ride. That's all the way up
the highest one. I don't know from where he fell.

(10:47):
How does she have time to have good grammar? And
I'll never understand that. Tyree's father, Yarnell, said that his
son was six ft five and forty pounds and was
told by other rides in the park that he was
too large to hide safely, but that the free fall
ride operators waived him aboard. The grieving father said that
Tyree began to panic and shared a chilling premonition with

(11:09):
his two best friends seated next him on the ride.
That's when he started freaking out. He was explaining to
his friends next to him, I don't know, man, if
I don't make it down safely, can you please tell
my MoMA and daddy that I love them? And his
friend said for him to say something like that, he
must have felt something. So now there's an investigation under
way and they are trying to figure out who is

(11:30):
to blame for this. Apparently the only thing stopping people
from falling out of their seats were plastic pulled down harnesses,
which are supposed to buckle in place in between writers legs,
and apparently his harness was still locked after the fall.
There's a pretty gruesome report of the nine on one call,
and I'm not gonna read it because it's a literally

(11:53):
it's intense alright. So you guys, the article says that
he may have exceeded the right's weight limit and he
was turned away from other rides. Mm hmmm. So do
we think that the responsibility of death falls on the
person and people operating the passengers on the free fall? Right? Well,
there are a lot of different There are a lot

(12:14):
of different things we have to take in their context. Right,
So not only not only did we just open this ride,
this is apparently supposed to be a new ride, but
it goes up to about four hundred and thirty ft high,
which is very high. And as for Tyree himself, he's
apparently two hundred and eighty five to three hundred pounds

(12:34):
six ft five tall or three d and forty pounds
six ft five tall mail And the ride it exceeds
the limits once it hits two hundred pounds. So that's
somebody's fault for allowing him on the ride. And we
know why this happens. When you go to these especially

(12:56):
these kind of local town amusement parks. It's not like
we have a professor or physics PhD running running the show.
It's a twenty year old kid who could be friends
with you or whatever it is, and goes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
just get on, and that's how it starts. I think
the thing that's odd to me is if he was
getting rejected from every other ride, why would he be like,

(13:18):
oh yeah, let me go on the tallest one. Because
he's fourteen years old and he thought, listen, if I
can get it, like we're you kind of forget. And
I think the people probably running the ride that twenty
year old kids looked at this guy. He's six ft
five pounds. You probably look at him like he's a man.
And but he's a fourteen year old kid. So he

(13:40):
got to go on a ride that his friends were
going on. Of course he took the opportunity because you
don't think, okay, well I'm gonna fall from this thing
and I'm going to die. Obviously he had a premonition
when he was on it. He he was like, oh
I could go on this ride. Let me jump on it.
I think we're looking at it because hindsight is every
single there are times will you'll say something and then

(14:02):
the one time Unfortunately, in this tragic situation, it comes true.
You're taking it out of context and you're saying, wow,
he had a premonition, but really what you're going up
that high You're like, Oh, if I die, let my
parents know that I loved them. You know, that's actually
I told my kids that before I came in here
to do this podcast. And has still die, And then

(14:24):
people will be like, he had a premonition all of
a sudden, I Tehran come into the background of Dmitri Zoom.
Every day I have premonitions. I'm every time I get
in my car, I'm like, I'm going to die today
in this car. So there's gonna be one day. But
you're also an awful driver, La, So that's actually okay,
I'm so sorry, please continue, how dare you please? You know,

(14:48):
all I'll say is that none of them were my fault.
Wait are you still talking about car accidents or guylous?
That hilious? And and also I just to say, this
is so tragic, and I can't even imagine how his
friends feel. They were sitting next to him on the ride.

(15:08):
His friends, his parents like this is like said, this
is a fourteen year old kid. He went on a
trip and apparently, uh, very nice, like genuine heartfelt kid
he went on a trip with his friends. Like, man,
that's like, as a parent, that's what you want your
kids to go and have fun. But man, to have
this stuff in your head, like you you don't stop
them from doing things because of the odds of it happening.

(15:31):
But the fact is, it does happen sometimes. And when
that happens, I mean, do you remember that story at
Disney if a bunch of years ago, this family was
on vacation and they were watching a movie on the
beach and like, the two year old son went too
close to the water and an alligator jumped out and
dragged him in, and and and everybody and and people online. No,
but people online were like, what's wrong with these parents

(15:52):
letting him do this? Like, hey, how about these parents
took their kids to Disney, Like if they weren't like
ignoring their kids, they had the right intent. But you
you just don't know when this is going to happen.
I think that if I ever have children, they're never
allowed to leave the house and we're going to live
in a bunker anyway, moving on, So it sounds like
if you ever have a boyfriend, they're not allowed to

(16:15):
have social media. That's kind of like, that's your m O. However,
in this particular situation, I do feel very very sad
for the parents because this is a fourteen year old boy.
This is a fourteen year old who has the tragic
laws of life in this manner, and that the concept

(16:35):
is at this point it doesn't matter whose fault it is,
simply because how do you replace your child, the person
you have placed all your hopes and fears and and
future inside. So it's just a it's a horrible situation.
I do want to point out one external factor that
we forgot or neglected to mention. It did happen in Florida,
where it seems like a lot of these kind of

(16:57):
situations tend to happen. Just saying and let's not one
last thing, let's not gloss over a brand new ride
in two and they said there were plastic harnesses, Like
what is that? Don't don't build rides with plastic harnesses
that go up the highest of any ride in Florida.
Also they hate the environment. Well, they're not throwing away

(17:20):
the plastic harnesses, they're using the plastic the plastic can
never be destroyed, So that's number one. Number two, never
say that I neglected something again, Taran. I will always
I felt that because it just felt like you needed
to let me know that I didn't mention it, and
I felt that. But it was nice because he wrapped
it up with taking a dig in Florida, which I
can always get on board with, which I'm actually just

(17:41):
mentioning it. And I would like to say that, of
all places, the fact that this happened in Florida is
actually surprising because Florida is one of the epicenters of
amusement park rides, so you would think that they would
have much better safety features and inspectors. I do want
to remind everybody that every single time you see a
warning symbol or warning sign, it comes on the heels

(18:02):
and the backs of someone's tragic loss or death. So
whenever you walk into an elevator and it says only
five people and you're like, oh, let's just have six,
remember there was a time there were six or seven
and that elevator just fell through the shaft. And that's
why we now have those warning signs on all those elevators.
Warning signs come on that heel. Whenever you see that,
just think of that. And in this case, we knew

(18:25):
that it exceeds the limit at two and eighty five
or two eighty six pounds, and we don't have exact
weight measuring machines. But possibly if we had a better
professional and I don't want to blame the attendant, but
a better trained attendant might have been able to recognize
the weight and size exceeds the limits, and we might

(18:45):
have avoided this tragic death. I think that it's like,
how do you how do you turn someone away without
embarrassing them? You know, there might have been some sort
of like, oh, he's probably fine, he's like, nothing bad been.
I don't want to make him feel weird in front
of his friends and say no, you're too large or
more embarrassing. Like it's just like, yeah, you know, it's

(19:09):
so weird about these warning signs. It's like, now I
understand why no one in my apartment building gets on
the elevator when they see me. I'm just I'm wondering
what notices they sent out to everyone. Yeah, they pressed
the button. I'll take the next one, you know. I'm like,
what happened was specifically about you it was one incident
and he's fine. They're like, guys, her picture was in
the pamphlint for a reason. Does heed the warning? They're like,

(19:32):
don't worry, she will be out of here in five months. Um. Anyway,
so do you think that they should close the ride?
I think it warns an investigation, if nothing else, it
definitely warns the safety investigation, especially if they're saying that
the buckle was still in the harness when the ride

(19:52):
came to completion. So they're saying the buckle was still working.
So how did this six ft five and forty pound
fourteen year old slipped through all the harnesses? How did
that happen? Slip out? No? So what happened? Did the snap?
And right now you have to remember that everybody's trying
to cover their own asks. Everybody. Anything that gets said

(20:15):
right now is because now it's going to be used
against them and if not a court of law, at
least a civil trial. Thank you lawyer. I know, like
I was cool with the nemesis and thing before, but
now he's like smart and funny, and I'm like, what
does that mean? What am I now? Um? You're sometimes
to Yeah, that's my happy place. Okay, all right, I

(20:39):
think it's time for us to move on because Tehran
starts speaking legally and it made us feel inferior. I'm
just saying, we'll see and I know this, and you
have to understand that this, this legal, this legal civil
suit is going to set a precedent for these many rides.
Disney settles a lot of civil suits out of court.
Disney is also very much responsible for our copyright laws

(21:01):
in this country, but a lot of our liability UH
insurance claims. Also because it's one of the largest largest
providers of amusement rides. So we will see how this
sets up, especially in a place that is a hub,
an epicenter of amusement parts, which is Orlando. That is
what Orlando is known for, and more importantly, it's known

(21:23):
for its tourism. The effects of this can have leading
effects on the economy there in many ways which we
are not prepared to understand at this time. Who wants
to go to that park? Now, who wants to ride
that ride? That ride shutting down causes a cost, and
we'll see how that works out in place. I I

(21:46):
thought she was going to pay you a compliment. I no, no, no,
That's how I compliment his by letting him know he
spoke for a very long time. No, but I think
Disney is also responsible for me thinking that I will
one day marry a prince, and so I hate that
that's a but that's because you've been looking at the
stories incorrectly. Cinderella is literally a story about a girl
who falls in love with a guy who has no

(22:07):
idea what she looks like when she takes her makeup off.
That's literally what the story is. I mean, I think
we've seen it that Love is Blind on Netflix. Isn't
that the same thing? Basically every l a love store.
We're moving on, all right, this hot topic, very hot,
almost too hot to discuss. A woman is arrested for
shooting another woman twice after a fight over a wig.

(22:29):
A woman is behind bars after Memphis police say she
shot at another woman twice after a fight over a wig.
The incident happened on March twenty six, just four days ago.
According to an offid David, the victim, identified Arta via
Buying hum as the person who shot at her. Buying
him allegedly fired two shots after a fight about a wig.
Police said the shots hit the victims. Buick verano On

(22:53):
voluntarily went to the police station for an interview. She
confessed to shooting at the victim twice. After the fight,
she was arrested in charge with aggravated assault. I feel
like I just read the same sentence eight times. But basically,
one woman shot another woman twice over a wig? Okay?
What did this wig look like? Was it super expensive?
Did she steal it from her? Why is this happening?

(23:16):
And also is the victim okay? Ah? What is happening
in Memphis? I'm about to go get hair extensions later
and I'm like, if someone gonna try to rip them
out of my head? Possibly, it depends on where you
get these extends. Beverly Hills. So definitely, yes, yeah, I
mean crime is high right now in l A. What

(23:37):
most devicious people I know live in Beverly Hills? Yeah,
and I know them all. And but those are the
white color crimes? Are there? Where does wig wig color crimes?
I wasn't going there, but thank you here, welcome the nenture.
Do you guys can care about this case? I think,

(23:58):
to be honest, this is this is just a heated thing,
Like I think it's stupid. I don't think like not
talking about it. I think it's stupid that somebody potentially
could have killed someone over of a wig, so obviously
that you chalked this up to just like craziness. I
guess I don't know why we're stealing wigs or why
we're getting that heated over wigs, and I don't have hair,

(24:19):
so but I'm not taking anybody down for some what
if she saw or maybe she thought she saw hair
is from the wig at her boyfriend's place, And it
wasn't really about the wig at all, was it. I
just wanted to make it a crime of passion. It
is a crime of passion in a way if you
think about it. So what it is is this is

(24:40):
a fight that stemmed over a wig, but it leads
and it bleeds into more. It stems over the wig.
But we've all been in a situation where something smaller
minute leads to a much larger, heated reaction. And we're
actually going to talk about something like that a little
bit later. But the concept is, this wasn't shooting over
the wig. It's not like give me my wig. And

(25:00):
these were complete strangers. These were two friends who there's
a lot to unpack there and it just went too
far and someone's reaction was one that on befit the
crime or situation at hand. So potentially a misleading headline.
I mean, I don't know if it was a misleading headline,

(25:20):
but headlines are created to get us to click them. Well,
headlines are created because that's where wigs are in your
head and anyway, so we're just gonna move right along
because I'm canceled from comedy. Okay, this next story is
very troubling and heartbreaking, So I didn't mention it earlier

(25:43):
on when I was telling you what's happening this episode
because it's just so heartbreaking. So two teen cousins have
been found dead after a horrific incident occurred during an
Instagram live while they were playing with a gun. The
incident happened in Missouri at around two in the morning
on Friday. The St. Louis Police identified the children as
twelve year old Paris Harvey and her fourteen year old cousin,

(26:06):
Karen Harvey. Both are from St. Louis. They were pronounced
dead at the scene and the police have deemed it
an incident they said a murder suicide, but it is
more of just a tragic accident. So apparently they were
making a video and Paris dropped the gun. It fell,
it went off, and then I think she tried to

(26:26):
pick it up, and she picked it up by the
barrel and it went off. And so it was kind
of a freak accident, is what they're saying it was.
It wasn't an intentional murder suicide. And Miss Harvey said
that she didn't know who owned the gun and she
didn't know how her daughter got ahold of it. So, Dmitri,

(26:48):
as a parent, do you think twelve years old and
four years old is too old to pay attention to
what your kids are doing in the house? And if
the doors closed, are you checking in on them? Are
you well? What? What? What do you put your take
on this? My my take on it is no, it's
never kids are never too old to check on them,

(27:08):
especially you know the doors closed, you wonder what they're doing.
But this has nothing to do with two kids being
in a room with the door closed and not being
checked on. This. This goes and by I want to
be clear, I'm not blaming these parents. I don't know
anything about them, but but parenting goes beyond a moment
of should I have checked on them? Parenting is the
whole time leading up to that as well. Right, So

(27:31):
there's talks about guns. There's talks about however that gun
got there. I don't know, but there's talks about what
is appropriate and what what is safe and things that
you should be doing, and it should never It should
be that these kids wouldn't think, wouldn't want to even
try playing with a gun for Instagram live video. How
did they not know that a gun came into their house?

(27:55):
We don't know the situation or this family, this family,
this family. Does it mean that they all brought guns.
It could have been one family member who brought a
gun and it was for their their protection, whether it's
in their personal or professional lives, or they just felt
safe for having a gun. It's like, let's also remember
this happened, and this happened in in St. Louis. Yeah,

(28:18):
so this is a place where St. Louis has a
high crime rate. It's a it's a city where you know,
a lot of people do feel they need to protect themselves.
It's not always a viable way to get a legal gun.
Some people have to go the route depending on their
backgrounds or their own personal options. So I don't want
to judge where that gun came from. And I'm not

(28:40):
I'm not an opponent of the Second Amendment. I do
think we do need this is this goes to why
we need stricter gun laws, why we need stricter gun laws,
and we need redding, and we need to be aware
of that. That's the other thing that comes to mind
is gun safety. I'm not saying it's wrong to have
a gun. I'm not saying it's wrong to bring a
guns them where However, especially if you're going to be

(29:03):
around children. I know people in l A who have
guns and they keep them in safe where they have
codes on them. You know, the gun is for a
very specific use at a specific time, and under no
other circumstances is it being brought out. And by the
time you get the safe, by the way, you're already.
But there are strict laws where you have to lock

(29:25):
them up, you have to lock them up and things
like that, especially in California, especially in Los Angeles. Well yeah,
but I mean crime rates are so high here that
who's really locking after guns? You know, That's the funny thing.
In Los Angeles, crime rates are high, and now we
have this, we have this ring of criminals who are
going around robbing people. However, because of the strict gun laws,

(29:47):
if you do fire a gun or protect yourself, you're
going to get in trouble. And this has happened to
several people that have done so. So it's a very
interesting situation that comes to play. But in this part
particular situation, there is a question of gun safety. There
is a question of why two children were able to
have a gun, find a gun, and play with a gun,

(30:08):
and to do so well live and no one to
no one to admonish them or even critique them on live.
That says a lot about us as well. It says
a lot about you know, whoever was watching. No no
one was like, why don't do this? Don't play? Don't
They might have been we don't know, we didn't see
the transcript. It might have been. But they also don't know.
They don't know is it a real gun, isn't loaded?

(30:30):
I mean, there's so many factors that go into this.
But I agree with you. If I saw that, if
if for some reason I saw a video and I
saw two kids or two people playing with a gun, improperly,
I would say something, but you know, clearly, as you
can read any news headline or any story on the Internet,
you'll know that there's tons of different types of people
in the world, and they might have thought it was

(30:51):
a fake gun. You know. I feel like the lines
are so blurred between reality and reality. It's like I
don't even know what's really anymore. And that actually feels
a lot like what happened with Will Smith and Chris Rock,
which will get into in just a second. Right after
this break and we're back, Welcome back to real time crime.

(31:26):
I hope you did not commit a crime while listening
to that advertisement. I just want to say I also
have Tehron's number memorized just in case I do get
in trouble that I know that he will get me
out of jail. And is that true or false? I'm
the best I'm look, I'm not sure. Hey, what's up? Friend?
And that's not who I am. I am not what

(31:46):
you do in friends. I am the if something goes down,
some ship goes down, I'm the best person to call
to help you out, or if you want to play
a pickup game listen, and I believe it and I'm not.
I don't consider myself like a Hollywood type of guy,
but I just became one. Is If I ever got
in trouble, they say, do you want to call your lawyer?
And I go, no, I want to call this guy.
I was on a podcast with the one you call.

(32:07):
You call that is a real thing. So I'm there
for you. I am there for you now, Dmitri, oh boy.
And speaking of being there for each other, Hollywood did
not have each other's back this past weekend at the Oscars.
You all already know about this, but now it's our
take here on Real time crime. So if you don't know,
you're living under a rock and wake up. Hello, are

(32:28):
you Okay? It's pandemics over and Will Smith akers Rocker
hit each other on national television International to not hitting
not hitting each other, not hitting each other? All right, okay,
back back back, I'll backtrack. Um. During the Oscars on Sunday,
Will Smith stunned the Dolby foter crowd and viewers at
home when he took the stage during Chris Rock's remarks.
After Commedie made a joke about Jada will Smith's wife,

(32:52):
he said, Jada, I love you, g I Jane two
can't wait to see it, and the joke touched a
nerve and Will Smith walked onto stage, slapped Chris across
the face, went back to his seat, kept yelling keep
my wife's name out of your sin mouth. Jada has
a shaved head, but mostly because she has alopecia, and

(33:16):
I guess that was diagnosed. The joke wasn't particularly funny,
it was very dated. I didn't even know she had alopecia.
I mean, they're now launching an investigation, and Will Smith
did apologize publicly to Chris Rock, and Chris Rock did
not press charges. What what's everyone's take? At first? I

(33:37):
thought my first thought was I gotta get to Twitter,
and then I couldn't stop tweeting. I literally was like, joke, joke, joke, joke,
I can't stop, but mostly because I thought it was staged.
And then my second thought was, is Chris Rock promoting
something soon? Though still some people still do think of

(33:59):
stage right and as a comedian, it's terrifying that anyone
could just come on stage and assault you and no
one does anything about it, and win an award and
get a standing ovation twenty minutes later. I mean, talk
about highest high and low is low within twenty minute period.
But I'm also of the school of thought where it's

(34:20):
very interesting to watch to a list celebrities get into
a legitimate fight in front of the entire world and
have no one know how to react. Not one person knew.
Why would anyone know what to do? Why would anyone
expect this to happen? And honestly, I feel like we
make a huge deal of this. This was interesting, it

(34:41):
was shocking, it was funny, it was horrible, and we
move on. I thought it was great. I thought it
was great. It was let's be very honest. None of
us were watching the Oscars before this happened. None. Why
do I know what coda is? Why do I know
all the words of the song there in Kantos songs? Why?

(35:03):
Why did I looked up Belfast? Okay, the only reason
I did so is simply because Will Smith smacked Chris
Rock live at the Oscars. I'm so sorry. It was
just great television. And even Chris Rock himself says right
after it happens, after they're a little bit of back
and forth, this is the greatest night in television history.

(35:26):
Will Smith just smacked the ship out of me. This
is the greatest night in television history. Hey, Kanye Wess,
Taylor Swift, hold my beer, Hold my beer. This is
the greatest night in television history. Right here. Also this
is in the Academy started disciplinary proceedings against Will Smith today,
and expulsion is on the table according to variety, which
would be which would be out of bounce, which would

(35:49):
be completely out of bounce. How So, because first of all,
this is this is the reason, how likely is this
to happen again? It's extremely unlikely to have happened. That
to happen, right, it was extremely unlikely to happen in
the first place, and even more exponentially extremely to have
happen again. Number two, take the source. This isn't Gucci

(36:10):
Man who went on stage and smacked Chris Rock in
the face. Okay, this is Will Smith. If Will Smith
hasn't built up enough human currency in order to be
forgiven at some point, then none of us are saying.
And so I'm not saying. I'm not saying lock him up,
and clearly there's no charges being just lock him up,
you can. And Will Smith, he's a nice guy. He's
a nice guy. He's got money he's the fresh prince.

(36:31):
He shouldn't have any penalties. I'm not saying, to be
very fair, he has a huge penalty. His first oscar
Win is marred forever and overshadowed by his momentary lapse
of judgment and his reaction. And this is a person
whose brand means more to him than anything else, because
he's done such a great job of building such a fine,

(36:53):
such a wonderful friendly image and streaming it and it's
not being performative a lot of young fans. And let's
be honest, the academy dropped the ball by by nothing happening,
by him going back to his seat and sitting there.
There should have been something. What should have they should
have taken No, they should have escorted him out of

(37:13):
the out of the area. And if he won, he wins,
and he hears about it on from a from a
text and he zooms in. I disagree with I disagree
with that assessment. I think that this was this was
a momentary labs of judgment. It's between two people who
not only have a friendship but a history, and honestly,
Chris rock wasn't a person who was If Chris Rockets

(37:35):
said I don't feel safe. I want will Smith out
of here. That would be different. But he did know
such things, as far as we know from every account,
he did know such things. He understood the situation, and
even though he was clearly not happy with the situation,
no one is happy with getting smacked in the face. However,
they were both people and it was between two individuals.
The only reason we're having this discussion right now is

(37:56):
because it happened on live television under a microscope. And
all of us who hate being judged, by the way,
because I personally I live in a glass house and
I'm not without saying so I hate coustin stones. All
of us love judging what happened. Now do I condone
what will Smith did not? At all? Will Smith was wrong, period.
There is no justification for what he did whatsoever. In fact,

(38:17):
as a child, we learned to keep our hands to ourselves.
He should have never done that. However, However, understanding understanding
something is different than condoning it. And this played out,
so you're not you're not a fan of of said it?
So he said an example to people. Right. His son
even tweeted out, that's how we do it. So he

(38:37):
said an example to all his young fans. So with
no real repercussion besides, oh the agony of having my
Oscar Win tainted? Are you okay with with no example
being said? The oscars? They dropped the ball too. I'll
get it's no, but not no one's cleaning this whole thing.
But do you think with no repercussion that's a safe
way to proceed? Are you not a fan of leading
by example? So as a as a comedian, and when

(39:00):
comedians bring up, oh, now, should we be afraid of
people coming up on stage and hitting us? First of all,
I'd like to say, uh. And a lot of quote
unquote urban comedy rooms, unfortunately, things that this nature tend
to happen sometimes, and it's a horrible situation. That's number one.
Never is the person of Will Smith, And a lot
of mainstream comedy rooms things like this tend to happen.

(39:23):
So this isn't like comedians haven't dealt with something like this,
and it's a horrible, horrible situation. Anyone who uses this
as a precedent or an excuse to now feel safe
to do this was just looking for an excuse. The
only person we should all be afraid of as all
the means say, is Kanye Now that Kanye thinks this
is okay, Pete Davidson should duck and hide. But other

(39:44):
than that, to be very fair, most of us will
never ever endure something like this because most people understand.
And this isn't like it was a random joke by
a random comedian to a random person, but this is
people who have a history. Now, if I was on stage,
I said something very personal to Lea Lamar and for
Leah didn't didn't know about Jada's alopecia. But most of

(40:07):
us in that form and that in that trending culture
and zite guys, we all knew about it because she's
been very vocal about it and how much it's hurt her.
Most of us need to be fair. I don't know
about any celebrity drum or any celebrity conditions like I
don't really follow along, which I completely understand, and that's
and that's the thing. But Chris Rock is a very

(40:28):
knowledgeable comedian and and once again I don't think Chris
Rock was wrong. I'm not a fan of it's too soon,
you can't make a joke about that. I'm not a
fan of that at all. That is how the freedom
of speech works. If you do not believe in the
freedom of speech for those you disdain, you do not
believe in the freedom of speech. However, freedom of speech
does not mean freedom from consequences, and in this case

(40:50):
the consequence was not justifiable whatsoever. However, the punishment punishing
Will Smith now even more will do what do they
want to find him? I completely understand the fine. If
two NBA players get into a fight, we find them.
We don't ban one or expel one for the rest
of their lives for something that you do, expel them

(41:11):
for the rest of the season. The malice in the palace,
those guys were that's because they took on and beat
up fans. They beat up like thirty people. Technically, technically,
Chris Rock was there doing his job. However, this is
the thing. If Will Smith had went and started beating
up people in the state, I would say, you're right,
this is a menace. If he started beating up security
when they came to detain him, I would say, you're right.
This is two basketball players, two people on the field

(41:34):
who got into an altercation. And just because you're not
used to seeing that between these two people, or or
or in this particular situation, uniform. Yes. And here's the
thing I agree with you. I do. I've never looked
at this like, oh my god, now comedians are gonna
like it's open season on comedians. I've never I haven't
seen it, looked at this and thought that. But where

(41:55):
I come from is it is a different perspective here
is that. Okay, Chris Rock was was bullied growing up,
and granted, people say, well, he comes out slinging jokes
that people find But as I said, these people have fans.
Will Smith has fans, right, he has young fans this
and that, and by the way, trigger stuff, Okay, I
think less people are were, at least from my perspective,

(42:18):
a majority of the people that I know were more
enraged by the fact that he got up, accepted as
award and played a victim I'm protecting my family, and
he got a standing ovation and then he went into
and he used trigger phrases for domestic violence. Right, love
will make you do crazy things. How many women that
have been abused by their husband have been told that afterwards?

(42:39):
Like that's I think what what got people. It wasn't
so much that if he slapped him and then they
were like, okay, well that's over. But when he got
up and played the victim, I think it hit a
lot of people the wrong way. Yeah. I also just

(43:02):
want to quickly interrupt um this crime of passion about
to happen between the two of you. But apparently Variety
said that the Academy asked Will Smith to leave and
he refused. I think it's interesting that they didn't force
him to leave, they asked him to leave. The thing.
The other thing is that Will Smith has built up
enough social grace at this point and trust with not

(43:24):
only the Academy in the entertainment industry, but also with
the world at large that I don't think you just
say Will Smith, you have to leave. I think you
say Will Smith, would you mind leaving? And then he
says no, and then you say, okay, I guess we
did our part the academy. The Academy is saying this
after the fact. We don't know who asked or how

(43:46):
it was asked or and Will Smith refusing. Was it like, hey,
Will do you want to come outside? And it's like no,
I'm cool, and that was their understanding. We don't know
the phrasing. We don't know everything, and you did have
Denzel and Bradley Cooper talking to him and be like, Okay,
he's the calm, he's calmed down. Like so you don't know.
And it goes back to that amusement park thing you
talked about. Sometimes you got this person, it's like, hey,

(44:08):
you can't do this, and then you get nervous and
like we all sit back and think, oh, yeah, I
would have told him to leave. Well you wouldn't. I
wouldn't have looked at Will Smith and been like, I'm
gonna drag you out of here, because shop you're probably intimidated.
It's Will Smith. He just had Denzel and Bradley Cooper
in the corner of the ring being like, all right,
you ready for round two. That's that's how We'll Noah
made it. When someone invites me into their A list

(44:31):
celebrity circle to comfort them after they've publicly assaulted another celebrity,
I do think that no goals, you gonna have them. No,
it's the thing. I do think that Will Smith is
facing his own form of punishment. He knows what he
was doing was wrong. As for Jaden, I mean for
for us to use Jaden's word For all we know,

(44:53):
Jaden was listening to the song this is how we
do it. I don't know. I don't want to put
that out there. However, let's assumed that Jaden was tweeting
about this, you know why, because that's his mom. For us,
it's just Jada Pinkett. That's his mom. That's his mom.
And when people say, well, look, he used this trigger
trigger phrase honestly, or was he using a phrase that's
a calm and love will make you do crazy things

(45:14):
if you say something in a sweet way, and it's
kind of like if you take something out of context.
That's why content is. If you take something out of context,
it's not just content. If you have a grandparent who's like,
come here, I love you. You're so sweet and I
want to kiss you all over, and then you take
that same and it's like, hey, I love you, I
want to kiss you all over. You're like, oh, look
at this, look at this criminal pedophile, while on the

(45:36):
other hand, it's just a sweet grandmother. I'm not saying
what he said was premeditated. What I'm saying is that
is what I think has gotten people like I think
to see that happen, and then for him to play
a victim and have and have some people be like, oh,
he looked at me as being a defender. It's like
that's tough for some people to swallow. And I think
that's I don't think the anger has been like okay,

(45:57):
open season on comedians, no no holds bar, no rules.
I think it's like, oh, he did something he shouldn't
have done. He did something that's wrong, and then he
took his other angle and then he went dancing to
his own song at the after party. There was no remorse.
So I think that's why. What did you want? You
want him to cry in the car? You wanted to
send a cry in the car. Let's not. Let's not

(46:19):
do that, because all of us have done something bad
and then gone to seven eleven in an hour after that,
like none of us just sit around. And he didn't
go to seven eleven. He put the party, he won
an oscar, and there's nothing you can do with I'll
be I'll be honest if that was me, If that
was me, maybe I would go to the party, maybe,

(46:39):
but I would probably be pretty somber. I would be
feeling pretty shitty about what I did, especially if I
spent my whole career, building up to an image and
shattered it. Did you see everything he did? The whole party?
You saw? So you saw all three hours he was
at the park. That's not what I said. That's not
what I said. You saw one moment where people might
have been like, hey, will come on, man, let's wait,
and then he starts celebrating. And when he's where that

(47:00):
there's cameras everywhere. A man up his entire career to
look to be be so good and be so I'm sorry.
I'm just so against this. And I have a lot
of different different situations scenarios because I think there's a
cultural component in this and this that a lot of
quote unquote mainstream America is not taking into account. This
was street. This was street behavior that you haven't seen

(47:22):
in your lives on and it shouldn't have been on TV.
And this wasn't the place and time and for people
that you don't think are street, but they kind of are,
regardless if you know this about them or not. This
was This was also something even when he said keep
my wife's name out your now, that's something that's a
common phrasing. People are like picking on that phrasing. Why
would it. I can't. That's something that is said within

(47:43):
the especially in a hip hop in the hip hop community,
and in the black community. It's something that's said regardless
of if everyone else in America is aware of it
or not. And his behavior. I hate looking at someone
and going look at this liver. We know everything about
this person. Will Smith, if anything has should have at
least earned our our benefit of the doubt. Hey Will

(48:06):
Smith and let him speak on it, which he did.
He apologized there and then the next day he apologized
to Chris Rock. And that's something we would do because
of what we're all human. And I will tell you something, Dmitri,
to be honest to me, this was an incident that
happened and we all watched and it was interesting. This
says way more about us as people than it does
about because us and how we're judging and how we're looking,

(48:29):
and how we're so quick to condemn, and how we're
so quick to throw daggers and darts and place blame
and just be like this happened, and this happened, and
we all know all of these things has a lot
to say about us. There are people who are like,
for felony assault, then you don't know what a felony is. Okay,

(48:50):
So all of these things put into perspective. This is television.
We call it show business, and this was just a
part of show business. And to be honest, the only
investigation the Academy show have is how they can have
something like this happened every year because it was great
for their show. It was great for their show. And
while the Academy is so busy investigating this, I want
them to investigate Oscar so White, which is a part

(49:12):
of it, because let's be honest, there are times where
people of color, And do I think that Will Smith
should have even won an Oscar for King Richard? No?
I watched King Richard. Clearly he's like maybe the fifth
best actor in that movie. This was not the performance.
This was his training day to Denzel's Academy Award win
where it's like, not for this all the maybe Malcolm X,
maybe Hurricane, maybe Philadelphia, but not for this. So do

(49:35):
I think that Will Smith should have won? No? But
with Oscar so White, and we have that situation and
people don't realize it's overshadowing that that's something we should
be talking about a lot more. Plus On top of that,
not Latin X community and Asian communities aren't being fairly
given Oscars either, especially the Latin X community, which should

(49:56):
be the most mad because the award is called the Oscars.
If there was an award called the Jamal's and black
people didn't win, I'd be Hella, Matt. I'd be like,
are you serious? We can't even win a Jamal? We
can't even win a Jamal? Yes, um, no comment, but
I will say if there was an award show called

(50:17):
the Goldberg's and no Jews one, I would have been
I'm just saying, how mad, how mad? How matt should
Jewish people be all the time? We're mad all the
time about everything. Yeah, I'm mad when I see movies
which are supposed to be about Jewish people and somehow
the main person. How many times have I talked about Masiel?
I can't. I can't keep talking about this. I need

(50:38):
a new storyline. Also, just so everyone knows, Tehran is
Jewish and he's the one who drags me to synagogue.
That is also true story. I would not go to
temple if it wasn't for him. That's number one. Number two.
Just a quick side note, Chris Rock is going to
be performing in Boston tonight and a lot of people
are wondering if he's going to speak on the incident.
What do you guys think? I think Chris Rock Will

(51:00):
I think Chris Rock. Knowing Chris Rock. There are no phones,
there are no videos allowed. They take your phones when
you go in. W Smith Rose jokes. I don't think
there'll be Rose chokes. But he's going to say something.
I don't think he's going to go in. I think
he has a lot of respect for Will Smith. And
even though this was a horrible incident, I'm telling you

(51:20):
as a person who slaps a person once a month,
I'm letting you know that you can be best friends.
We're not talking about just in the bedroom. By the way,
just to let you all know, Lea Lamar on her
Instagram has one of the funniest videos in regards to
the Will Smith Chris Rock smack that I have seen online.
And there have been a lot of funny things on

(51:42):
you go on. What was the video about? It was
very funny. You have to go watch it. Just go
watch it. Just go to at Lea Lamar and you
will find it. And I'm telling you right now as
horrible as this was for one comedian, it was amazing.
For the rest of us, it was amazing for comedy.
I also just have to say, by the way, a
lot of people mixing the situation low key abop, like

(52:03):
this is low key abop. I don't know what else
to say. You know, it's crazy. There's somebody who's going
to lose their virginity to that song. I just want

(52:24):
to let you know. Oh my god, I think Chris
will talk about it. I don't. I don't think he's
gonna go in I don't think he's gonna go in
and roast yet. I know. I think he'll do some
I think it'll be good stuff, but I think it'll
be very uh, just around the edges. Yeah. He hasn't
made a comment. He hasn't come out. Even there was
a there was a type of a statement that was

(52:47):
circulating and his pr came out and vehemently denied that
it was from him. He has not made a single statement,
not a single comment on this situation, And I honestly
think that's what's best because right now Chris Rock is winning.
Chris Raw is winning his sold out show. By the way,
he already sells out, they're selling out even more. Chris
Rock is winning and his this is what I said.
My first thought is what is he promoting? Because he's

(53:09):
going to start annihilating sales Chris Rock. And that's the
thing I always I'm telling the other comedians, because I'll
see comedians and it'll be like open my comedians who
were like, oh no, people are gonna hit me. I'm like,
you're not really funny enough for anyone to get up
and smack you in the face. Now, if they get up,
it's because they're leaving to go someplace because you are

(53:31):
so unfunny. I mean. I also remember seeing Chris Rock
when I was a kid and his HBO special. I
just remember him laughing at his own jokes, and he
was in this beautiful black suit, and I remember thinking,
I'm too young to be watching this and this is inappropriate,
but I couldn't look away, and I remember saying, Wow,
he's the funniest person on the earth. By the way,

(53:52):
the big takeaway, how about the fact that he's fifty
seven years old and he took the smack like a champions.
Whether it's the boat chops in him or the New
York City he took this night like a champ. Now
right back up, stayed professional, made a joke and then
still made a comment on it and kept it moving,
and then went into introducing me a warrant and he

(54:13):
was stumbled a little. But he's the definition of the
show must go on. I think that is years and
years and years and years and years of experience. Or also,
Will Smith is trauma trauma like six ft two muscles
like it's not it's not like. I don't know if
this was instead of Chris Rocket, was Dwayne the Rock,

(54:35):
like would Will Smith has still done the same thing?
I don't know, possibly because at that moment, you know,
and there's a lot of speculation of Will laughing and
then what happened between the laugh and getting Jada and
looking at her look and you know, I don't like
to blame Jada for things, but well, I mean, that's
your wife, though that's his wife. They've been married for
better or for worse, and for whatever. We love to

(54:57):
judge the Red Table conversations ridge twenty five years and
whether they're happy or not, that's not for us to judge.
But they have figured it out in twenty five years.
In Hollywood, is two thousand five years anywhere. This is
still death do them part. So to my discredit, I
turned to my wife at that moment. I said, listen,
I gotta be honest. If someone said that about you,

(55:17):
I wouldn't get up. And but also I think we
have to know that Will didn't actually want to do damage,
because if you wanted to, he would have punched him.
He would have. And and I'll tell you something very real.
Leah and I are very close friends. If someone said
something to Leah that was I felt like out of
line or disrespectful. And I'm not saying this. I don't

(55:37):
want any labels of what this would come from. But
I would smack the ship out of them. And that's
a real thing. And I and that's when you punch them.
And I'm noticing that, you know, because punching, punching is
that's actually what people don't. They're like, he smacked him,
he should have punched him. Actually punching his way, it's
it's more aggressive and assault like and it's way less disrespectful.

(55:57):
And what Will Smith was trying to do was get
a point across. And that's when, once again, in that
street mentality, you slap someone in the face and you've
heard it's it's actually a phrase that said, it's something
that's said in conjunction, would keep bleep in certain names
out of your mouth like it's really it's really what
I would like to term street behavior, and I don't

(56:19):
like giving. And it's not race. It's not a race.
It's not black culture because this would happen in the
streets of Idaho and Alabama and anywhere where there's a
lack of black people as well. So this is it's
part of the street culture where Les Philadelphia born and raised.
If his mom sent him to bell Air for the
one little fight, I don't know where his mom's gonna
send him now. But well, I was in bel Air

(56:42):
last night and I was afraid Will Smith was going
to smack the ship out of me. As yeah, I'm
not afraid. But what I got out of your little
diet tribe is that you won't go to jail for me.
So good day, sir. If he goes to jail, he
won't admit it. As we saw before we talk, I
will never talk to about why. I will never talk
about why. No one shook jail is not cool, it's

(57:03):
not fun. It's not a rite of passage. There's nothing
good about jail. I was there for a month, you know.
The The one thing I do feel like, it's not
this is a different episode. The one thing I feel
that that we did miss and and just from a
comedic standpoint, is at the very end, right before Chris
Rock went back to his thing, he went, yeah, and

(57:27):
knowing how Chrick, how quick Chris is, you know, he
had something that he wanted, a joke they were never
gonna hear. He had august alsin a joke. He had
like fifty jokes, and honestly, that's the one thing that's
a comedian I'm sure anguished them the most is when
he went home and thought about all the things he
he he definitely could have said and didn't. So on

(57:48):
my take, it's like Chris Rock was not wrong, but
could have been better. Will Smith was definitely wrong and
should have been better. And then of all people, Jada
Pinkett was right, and all these things just went left
and we should just do you believe that Amy Schumer
wrote that joke? That's the word on the street. I
don't think Amy Schumer writes a lot of jokes, So
for her to have written that joke. No, honestly, honestly,

(58:10):
that the whole the behind the stage. And once again
all the people were like, well, I researched and I know.
And it's like, no, you don't. You're a Google works
just as well as my Google. We're all just googling
this and learning things, second, third, fourth hand. None of
us know the truth or what really happened or even
their mindsets, let alone any of these intimate facts that
people are using as evidence against or for them. Right,

(58:34):
can we just say it was a bad joke. It
wasn't a great joke joke. I didn't even honestly get it.
That was funny. I thought it was funny, but not amazing.
It was like I get it, and you know what
made it funny. And Chris rock knew is when he
threw it away, he said, hey, it's it's a g I.
Jane Jogglee is like, this isn't bad. This isn't a
bad one. Like he's like, I'm poking fun at something.

(58:56):
And for people who are like he made fun of
the way she looked he did it. Jane has strong,
beautiful and bald, and Jada Pinkett Smith a strong beautiful
in bold, and that's where that it's not actually a
dig unless you take it that way. But once again,
I don't know what goes on in their homes. I
don't know if Jada Pinkett has been crying and been
hurt and fragile and insecure and distraught and destroyed over this.

(59:18):
And I'm her husband who's been there and the and
she's the mother of my children. And it's been twenty
five years and Chris Rock has made digs at her
before and she's been like, I hate him, I hate
how he does this, and then you're in the situation
and you just get so deep in you can't back out. Now.
I've been in situations where I've done something where I

(59:39):
wish I could take back, but once it's happened, it's like, Yo,
this just happened. It is what it is. And now
I doubled down. Now I doubled down, and this is
why we're getting married. And I'm just kidding. Oh, I
was saying, Yeah, she didn't get the response you wanted,
and she kind of frozen every down really quickly. But

(01:00:01):
that was that was real. This has been enough for
It's not going to be a g I Jane too
write that was just I'm anticipating it now. By the way,
during this have I mentioned how I'm black in person?
And guys include conclusion for today, I didn't have a
coffee yet today, which is um why I've been not

(01:00:21):
