Speaker 5 (05:19):
This Christmas.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
My goodness.

Speaker 5 (05:23):
All right, well, good morning Morgan.

Speaker 6 (05:26):
Good morning y'all. Happy Friday. Let's get into it. So
the phrase of the day is due process.

Speaker 7 (05:31):
So President Trump is questioning whether to undocumented immigrants deserve
due process. While delivering a commencement speech at the University
of Alabama yesterday, Trump criticized judges who have blocked his
administration's efforts to deport alleged illegal immigrants.

Speaker 6 (05:45):
Let's take a listen to his comments.

Speaker 11 (05:47):
They have to let us do the job that the
voters want us to do. Judges are interfering, supposedly based
on due process. But how can you give due process
to people who came into our country illegally?

Speaker 5 (06:00):
They want to give him due process?

Speaker 2 (06:02):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
So Trump went on, and that's a question.

Speaker 4 (06:05):
You know, Governor wes More is coming here, and that
is a question that I asked him. Ask them the
same thing doing. Undocumented immigrants have the same constitution rights
as people who are here legally.

Speaker 6 (06:15):
M So I was going to say, well, what did
he say?

Speaker 12 (06:19):
Trump?

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Trump?

Speaker 7 (06:22):
Trump went on to congratulate the university's women's track team
and track and field for their two conference titles wins
this year. He also used the opportunity to highlight his
administration's efforts to ban transgender women from women's sports and
tout what he believes is a better economy under his administration.
He also shouted out the schools the legendary former football
coach Nick Sabin, saying the University of Alabama has a

(06:44):
brand and that brand is winning. In other news, national
security advisor Mike Waltz is leaving his position as National
Security Advisor. That's according to multiple reports, and this comes
after Wat's face scrutiny for mistakingly adding Atlantic editor Jeffrey
Goldberg to a signal chat that discussed plans for a
military strike.

Speaker 6 (07:01):
Now Vice President j D.

Speaker 7 (07:02):
Vance spoke to Fox News about the matter, saying that
waltzs is not being fired from his role as a
National security advisor, but instead he's being promoted. I won't
toss to the audio because I see, we're short on time,
but he basically says that.

Speaker 6 (07:15):
Vance says that.

Speaker 7 (07:16):
Trump decided that Waltz is better served in another role,
which is the US ambassador to the United Nations. So
Waalts of course faced scrutiny, like I said, for adding
mistakenly adding that reporter to the signal chat that discussed
plans for a military strike, and Trump said in the
interim Secretary of State Marco Rubio will serve as National
Security Advisor while continuing to be a strong leadership, being

(07:39):
a strong leader in the State Department as Secretary of State. Now,
Republican Congresswoman Elis Stefanik of New York was the UN
nominee until the White House withdrewet citing a slim House
GOP majority. They want to maintain their stake in the
House and in the Senate or their seats per se,
and so they kept her.

Speaker 6 (07:59):
In that see and withdrew her nominations.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
What when is.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
Trump gonna make that same decision about Pete hegg Sathion
he just made about Mike wats. You know you're not
firing people, but you know you're you're promoting moving them
around other positions.

Speaker 7 (08:12):
Yes, Yeah, Well, he has expressed the President has expressed
that he has the utmost competent confidence, not competent, he
has the utmost confidence in Pete Hagsath and his ability
to lead the Department of Defense. So I'm not sure
when that will happen, but I'll keep you posted.

Speaker 5 (08:28):

Thursday, yesterday, the first of May, did he was in
court and he walked into court. He was there with
his attorney, his attorneys, attorney Gar Gross and Brian Steele,
who was a young thug's attorney in his trial. And
he rejected, or he confirmed that he rejected the plea
deal that we've been talking about in here. So he's
in court and the judge asked him, did you reject
the plea deal?

Speaker 8 (17:31):
Did?

Speaker 6 (17:31):
He says, yes, I did.

Speaker 17 (17:32):
The judge is like, are you aware of the fact
that you could potentially serve more time in prison because
of the plea deal rejection if you're convicted?

Speaker 6 (17:40):
And did?

Speaker 17 (17:41):
He told the judge that he did understand the stakes
of what was on the line now a lot.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
Brian Stel is new to the case, right, Yes.

Speaker 6 (17:46):
Brian still is new to the case.

Speaker 17 (17:47):
We reported when he came on and when it was
actually like real, like okay, he's working the case now now.
I spoke to a source close to the case trying
to figure out more of what the plea deal was
because most people nobody knows what it is as of now,
so I got a bit more details.

Speaker 6 (18:01):
What I was told is.

Speaker 17 (18:02):
That the plea deal included did he having to plead
guilty to a lot of things that he absolutely did
not do. Now there's he's saying he didn't do any
of this, right, he's been saying, I'm not guilty of
any of this whatsoever. But there are certain things and
certain allegations that are so absurd that Diddy's team feels
like they don't even have evidence to even bring this
into conversation, So he's not even going to plead guilty

(18:24):
and give them any leeway to throw things on him
or to build a case with those things. Now, I
want to point to the fact that, you know, when
jay Z came out, the woman from the two thousands
of the VMA Awards has said that Diddy and jay
Z allegedly raptor that was dismissed once jay Z faulted,
and that was one of the claims. I want to
also point out the Little Ride thirty million dollar lawsuit.
They decided not to move forward with that as well

(18:45):
too because of the claims it. Yes, but I pointed
to those because those claims, even civilly, just show how outrageous.
According to my source, and according to what I believe,
Diddy's legal team is looking at the claims can get
when it comes to Puff in the situation because people
have begin to power on. So what I'm being told

(19:06):
is the same thing that's happening on the criminal side,
and on top of it happening on the criminal side,
there is no evidence allegedly to back up the piling
on of these different things. So Puff is saying he
wants he wants to go to court. He wants to
fight it.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
Listen, I don't know what's true.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
It was not true, but I you know, did he
also told us the Cassie stuff wasn't true?

Speaker 6 (19:21):
Yes, sir, i'd but didn't that.

Speaker 3 (19:23):
Turned out to be, you know, a complete lie.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
So I have no idea, you know, because like to
your point, the Diddy situation has been so muddied because
of a lot of these civil cases and a lot
of these things that are flooding the internet.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
That's not what he's on trial for exactly. He has
to fight it.

Speaker 5 (19:38):
Yeah, I can't see him not even taking it the plea.
He has to fight it.

Speaker 17 (19:41):
Well, I will say to even with the plea, the
plea isn't because they feel like the prosecutors don't feel
like they don't have a strong case. You do that, just,
you know, by operation, because if you don't do it,
did he could come back after he's convicted, if he's
convicted and say, Yo, they didn't have my best interests
in mind. So I need to appeal this because if
they have my best interest they want me to just
sit in jail. They would have gave me, they would

(20:02):
have helped me catch a break through.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
A plea deal, maybe because I think they would really,
if they have everything that they say they have, they
would really try to lock there for.

Speaker 5 (20:09):
A long time in the barrister is shot today.

Speaker 3 (20:11):
They try, they're trying to.

Speaker 5 (20:12):
I don't think they would offer them a play in
my opinion.

Speaker 17 (20:15):
So well, I will say, normally and most typically in
a court case, especially this high stake, that's what you do.
It's literally like a protection. It's like, let me get
this out the way and offered. We know he probably
won't take it, but let's just do it so that
we can check this box real quick and listen.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
I don't know anything about the law.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
I am not a lawyer, and I know Brian still
just came on the case. But the lawyers that he
was with this whole time that couldn't even get him
a bond, are they still around as well?

Speaker 3 (20:39):
He got rid of some of them are?

Speaker 6 (20:41):
Some of them are?

Speaker 4 (20:42):
I wouldn't trust the same lawyers who can't even get
me a bond to you know, win a trial for me.
But I also don't know how much influence the lawyer
has on whether or not their client gets a bond.

Speaker 6 (20:51):
Yeah, I mean I get what you're saying.

Speaker 17 (20:53):
I think though, because he has so many different counsel
and then he has Brian Steel that just came on
as new, the team seems like they'll be a little
bit more or fresh because it's different conversations, different leaderships
or leadership in the in the situation.

Speaker 3 (21:03):
Now, that's what I want to know.

Speaker 6 (21:08):
I don't know exactly what he turned down yet.

Speaker 17 (21:10):
I just know what it was leaning toward, and from
what I am told, that was, uh, you know Puff's
legals team, Like that was the biggest thing for him.
Is like there's so much in here that it is
not true and they can't prove it because there's no
evidence because it never happened.

Speaker 4 (21:23):
We are not going, Yeah, I forget all that, But
what was the time because I've read somewhere and I
don't know if this is true.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
Uh, somebody said five years.

Speaker 6 (21:32):
I didn't see plea deal for five years, but.

Speaker 5 (21:33):
I didn't look it up.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
I don't know if that's true. I just saw that
some week.

Speaker 17 (21:36):
All the outlets I've seen, they don't know what it
was because of like everything's it's supposed to not be
getting out into the media or whatever. But the case
starts the actually goes to court that begins on May twelfth.
They also addressed a joy selection in court that day,
and people you know that were there are commenting on
how he looked.

Speaker 6 (21:54):
They said he looked happy.

Speaker 17 (21:56):
It's been released that he's able to actually wear like clothes,
clothes when child starts. He doesn't have to come student
the boot in his jail stuff. But it's only like
five different outfits like certain shirts, certain ties, five button
down shirts, five pairs of parents five sweaters, five pairs
of socks, two pairs of shoes without laces is what
he's allowed to wear.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
Course, so no, got we loafs?

Speaker 6 (22:15):
Yeah, shoes without laces, yep, that's yeah.

Speaker 4 (22:19):
I mean I have no reason not to be happy,
you know what I'm saying, other than the fact that
he's locked up because if the room was a true
he's having.

Speaker 17 (22:24):
A shut up literally stop what okay?

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Well?

Speaker 17 (22:32):
In other news, uh, the Tony Award announcements have come
out and people right now are pretty upset. They feel
like Othello was snubbed for a Tony Award and yeah
for twenty twenty five Tony Award nomination. Now Candy Birds,
who co produced with her husband Todd Tucker. She got

(22:55):
on Instagram and was telling Instagram that you know, she
felt the same way. She says she was disappointed, even
though she's beyond proud. Every time she watched the class Cash,
she says she's blown away and inspired. Now This directed
by Kenny Leon, is a revival of the William Shakespeare
tragedy which stars Denzel Washington, and the production on Broadway
has made like it's made records.

Speaker 6 (23:16):
It's making.

Speaker 17 (23:17):
It has made two point eight million in one week
of previews, which is the highest weekly gross for a
Broadway play. So people feel like, you know, because of
all of that and just how good it is, they
should have been nominated for a Tony Award and it
did not happen. Have anybody y'all said, well.

Speaker 6 (23:35):
Yeah, I haven't seen it yet either.

Speaker 17 (23:36):

But when I go to Detroit, they're gonna tell me

Goingear me up for a week.

And I just had to be quiet because you never

Speaker 3 (27:35):
So the D was tearing you up. The D was

Speaker 5 (27:38):
The Troy was tearing me up.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
Yeah, the D was tearing you up. The D was
in your ass. You heard it, he said this weekend.
It was going down, grow up?

Speaker 6 (27:46):
What's that?

Speaker 11 (27:47):
God?

Speaker 6 (27:48):
Oh my goshell, y'all.

Speaker 7 (27:49):
Hey, So let's continue talking. Do process as it is
the theme for front page News today. So the White
House will not confirm reports it has asked El Salvador
about the status of Kilmar a break Go Garcia. Secretary
of State Marco Rubio has reportedly been in touch with
El Salvador about Garcia, but during a recent cabinet meeting,
Rubio told reporters he will not comment on it. Let's

(28:12):
take a listen to his comments.

Speaker 18 (28:13):
Well, I would never tell you that, and you know
who else I'll never tell A judge is the convict
of our foreign policy belongs to the President of the
United States and the executive branch.

Speaker 5 (28:21):
Now soon judged.

Speaker 18 (28:21):
So we will conduct foreign policy appropriately if we need to,
but I'll never discuss and no one will ever make
us discussing because that's how foreign policy work.

Speaker 6 (28:29):
So gouts, of course, in case you missed it or
you've been under a rock.

Speaker 7 (28:32):
Garcia was supported to El salvad Or mistakenly and what
the White House said was an administrative error, but has
since said that he's a member of the MS thirteen gang.
I'm not sure if you guys saw that photo that
Trump was holding with his tattoos that seemingly was photoshopped
to say MS thirteen across his knuckles. Now, next week,
the administration is facing a court ordered deadline to provide

(28:55):
an update on steps that they've taken to return Garcia
here back to the United States.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
The need they need to stop focusing on him as
an individual, and what they need to start focusing on
is the fact that the Constitution is not being respected.
They need to be focusing on the fact that everybody
is allowed due process. Stop making it about the individual,
make it about the actual issue, because that issue can
happen to anybody.

Speaker 7 (29:18):
Right And I think that's why they're trying to, you know,
nail down what's happening with the individual so that we
can make it a blanket or.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
That that you know it can.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
Yeah, but when you make it about the individual.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
But when you make it about the individual and people
can say, well, he's MS thirteen or he was here illegally,
and then it makes people dismiss the whole situation. The
actual problem is the fact that this man is not
being allowed due process under the constitution.

Speaker 6 (29:39):
That's right.

Speaker 7 (29:40):
This comes as a federal judge is blocking the deportations
of Venezuelans in South Texas under the Alien Enemies Act.

Speaker 10 (29:47):
Now.

Speaker 7 (29:47):
Judge Fernando Rodriguez, who was appointed during Trump's first administration,
rights that members of the violent Venezuelan street gained trend
di Agua are not invading the country, and the administration's
recent swift deportations, he ruled violate due process rights now.
The ruling came as part of a lawsuit brought by
three Venezuelan men who claim they're not members of the gang.

(30:10):
Do we got time for one more, y'all? I think
this is a big one for a lot of people.
It's going to impact a lot of people. Sure, Education,
all right, let's get it to it. So the Department
of Education will resume collecting defaulted student loan debt this
coming Monday.

Speaker 6 (30:22):
That is Sinco de Mayo that is May fifth.

Speaker 7 (30:24):
The department announced collections will begin on May fifth, and
borrowers could be referred to debt collectors or have money
deducted from their paychecks. Student loan repayment requirements were paused
in March of twenty twenty due to COVID nineteen and
that pandemic. Now, the Biden administration opted not to resume
those collections and attempted to forgive student loan debt in
a program that was ultimately struck down by the Supreme Court.

(30:45):
But the Trump administration has indicated it would offer no
such concessions to borrowers. And the reason why I say
this is because you never know if something like this
Department of Education and student loans, or whether or not
you own you oe on student loans, could impacted in
the way where you know you might need your due process.
So if I could give donkey of the day, as

(31:06):
you're allowing people to do so Charlemagne to God, I
would do that to student loans.

Speaker 6 (31:10):
I would give the student loans the donkey of the day.
He Hall.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
That's right, Well, Charloman is opening up the phone line too,
So if you want to give somebody donkey to day,
eight hundrink five eight five one five we say, Charlotte.

Speaker 4 (31:21):
Yeah, call us right now. That's a damn shame though. Man,
the economy is already in shambles. Tariffs, got consumer goods,
you know, prices high. They're talking about a recession this summer.
And you know the student they collecting on student loan
debts on Monday. They really trying to break people. Yeah,
like they really driving people to the brink.

Speaker 13 (31:37):
Man.

Speaker 7 (31:38):
Well, the best I think we could do right now
is cheers to the freaking weekend. And that's your front
page news.

to buy a drink for real.

Speaker 8 (32:01):
What do it look like?

Speaker 3 (32:04):
I'll be going, I'm just saying, I don't know, I
don't really know it. I don't even know anybody's tell
crack no more but bottomore that I know. Yeah, right,
I remember crack used to be like twenty twenty dollars.

Speaker 6 (32:15):
Mber, Remember, why would you ever buying it?

Speaker 4 (32:18):
And I sold it a little bit, little petty drug dealer.
But I just wonder how much crack costs now. No,
I did coke once because it was somebody had put
it in a blunt with some wheat. I did it
by accident. I wouldn't do a by accident. I wouldn't
do a by accident now.

Speaker 5 (32:32):
But you know, maybe I wouldn't do it by accident now.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
Maybe ten years ago, maybe ten fifteen years ago, somebody
would have slipped it to me by acci.

Speaker 3 (32:39):
Then I might have enjoyed it again, might taked?

Speaker 6 (32:42):
You need advice to cope with what's going on.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
You know, it's given that that was the best I
ever had in my life. I still remember it. I'm
not I'm not.

Speaker 4 (32:51):
I'm just telling you I don't not do it, okay,
But I'm just telling you that when it accidentally happened
to me, it was amazing.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
All right, No cracks. Move on from Crack Reliving Single
a new podcast from Kim Coles and Erica Alexander.

Speaker 5 (33:05):
They'll be joining us next and don't go anywhere.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
It's the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 5 (33:08):
Good morning, the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
Morning Everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club Lawn. La Rosa's here as well.
We got a special guest in the building.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
Man.

Speaker 4 (33:22):
Some legends are in the building, Erica Alexander and Kim
Coleanky Day. They have launched the Reliving Single podcast. New
episodes come out every Wednesday, starting on May seventh on YouTube.

Speaker 6 (33:38):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
What inspired the creation of the Reliving Single Podcast?

Speaker 6 (33:42):
Well, you know, looking at my gucci, it's about that time.

Speaker 11 (33:45):
Why not.

Speaker 7 (33:46):
It's been thirty years, actually thirty years two years ago.
Actually it's thirty two years that we had the anniversary
of our show. The problem was it was during the
strike and no one was allowed to say anything about
anything that was on a studio and or network type
of thing.

Speaker 6 (34:04):
So then nothing happened.

Speaker 7 (34:06):
And for a very long time I was asked about
reboot and I always said, I always.

Speaker 6 (34:11):
Said yeah, I said consistently because I didn't want to go.

Speaker 7 (34:15):
I'm very identified with that character Maxie Shaw, attorney at law,
and I love her. But perhaps, and I always say
this very honestly, if I had a big film career,
something that would offset it. That would be nice. So
it wasn't just a matter of me saying no. I
would be stepping into something that I didn't think I
could shake as easily as you know other people. And
so this opportunity came and was approached by Eric Eddings

(34:40):
at a heartbeat, and he said, do you want to
do this? I said, now, not really, I don't want
to do it, but he kept asking and I thought, well, Ma,
it's the thirtieth anniversary. People really love it, They're doing
things all the time. Why not, And it's an opportunity
because of you. Charlemagne learned very well with Color Farm,
and you've given us our opportunities with finding Tamika and
also with the reparations, the big payback that you can
go in podcasts where you can't do that even in documentary,

(35:03):
and with episode after the episode, we'd be able to talk.
And then they approached Kim and I.

Speaker 19 (35:08):
Said, yes, I'm waiting. I actually think that you know
this is this is shallow. I know, I think we
all still look good. Let's do the reboot while we listen.
Everybody's busy and everybody has their own other thing that
they're doing. And so this was an easy way to
give the fans and the friends of the show a
taste of what they want. For sure, everyone will come

(35:29):
on the show, and I can't. I don't know if
I can give away that someone has already come and
taped an episode smooth chest that can. And so it's
a chance to go deep. Like you said, we're going
to talk about the behind the scenes and the things.
And actually we've known each other for that long, revelations
have come out, like things have come out like I
didn't know that about you, Erica, I didn't know that
about this that was going on behind the scenes. And
so the audience will be let in on something very

(35:51):
powerful that could not even happen on a reboot.

Speaker 5 (35:53):
So you're welcome.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
So many white shows do it, scrubs. I can't remember
any brothers, Donald, Andy.

Speaker 19 (35:59):
And this is a yes, this is us at the
office the first rewatch shows.

Speaker 6 (36:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
We are probably hosted by the actual cast members that
I can think of. I could be wrong, but I
can think of.

Speaker 19 (36:11):
I feel so so it feels like the right time
and we're having a good time doing it.

Speaker 17 (36:14):
Have you guys ever thought about if you did do
a reboot where the character's lives would be.

Speaker 6 (36:18):
Now, like what would the storylines be?

Speaker 19 (36:20):
I have and I don't know if I'm right. You know,
like there was talk on the on Living Single that
Sinclair and Overton would have twins and their names would
be sin Cloverton and Overclaire. So we have twins grown
up there, you know, loving so all the things, all

(36:40):
the things that.

Speaker 7 (36:41):
Would be governor, yeah, you know, probably ruling like she
is always has always been. You know, obviously she has
to be tied up with TC's Kyle Barker, right, and
they had a child on half and half.

Speaker 6 (36:54):
I don't know if that child still exists.

Speaker 5 (36:55):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (36:56):
I mean, you know, that's a good question. She might
be in a in a bar somewhere. I mean it's
already Mexican jail somewhere doing to her damage. You know,
maybe she was burnt out by life.

Speaker 6 (37:05):
He knows.

Speaker 7 (37:05):
I mean, you go that fast pace, you don't always win,
and a lot of lawyers burn out.

Speaker 4 (37:10):
That could be so good because I even cad what
she would have to make changes.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
There's no such thing as the printage.

Speaker 19 (37:17):
She would be a medium mogul supposed but here that's
the other thing too. I remember, you know, the fans
always say, where's a reboot?

Speaker 8 (37:23):
Reboot?

Speaker 19 (37:24):
And one time I saw somebody say, no, I don't
want to see where they've gone, because in my mind,
they live in a perfect space, in a perfect place.
And so anything that we do, there will be somebody
who disagrees with it.

Speaker 6 (37:34):
Well why is she in a jail?

Speaker 13 (37:35):
Why is she?

Speaker 19 (37:36):
You know, whatever it is like, there will be no
it lives in a perfect space where it is right now.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
So maybe let it be definitely a jail storyline. We
wouldn't want to.

Speaker 7 (37:48):
Situation, you know what I'm saying, meaning she was having
too much fun? I mean why you know, you're saying
something very real or in fact meets fiction. That's where
we are coming in talking about something that's very fact.
Maxine Shaw is a fictional character. Eric Alexander's effect Eric
Alexander in thirty years of living has changed.

Speaker 6 (38:06):
You know, and we had good days, bad days.

Speaker 7 (38:08):
We have you know, ups and downs, and so I'm
hoping those characters would have the same things that we had.

Speaker 4 (38:14):
What moments on set of Living Single helped shape who
you all are off camera, not just as actresses, but
as women that had to navigate fame and friendship and
career pressure. What moments helped shape who you are off CAM.

Speaker 19 (38:27):
I think we got along really well, very quickly. I
felt the energy from the first table read, and so
there was an energy and a respect and a friendship
and a sisterhood and a brotherhood that developed so quickly
that that permeated everything else that we did. Like we
would go and hang out together. America and TC have
the same exact birthday the same day John Hinton's birthdays

(38:51):
two weeks later, so we would go out, like, what
do y'all want to do for your birthday? Salsa dancing,
Let's go. So we became family really quickly, and so
I think that that helped infuse use the energy on
the set and in our characters. We really were friends,
and we really are still friends.

Speaker 7 (39:05):
But then we're also you know, movers and shakers. If
you're twenty three years old and I'm faking like I'm
a lawyer, I have a high school degree, and I
think it made me want to level up, I mean
in my reading and how I you know, approach life.
I mean, she was a killer, she was a real winner.
So I'd like to say that that shaped me a lot.

(39:26):
I think it was already there, but I really liked
how she was. She had integrity. I don't know that's
a really good question, you really is. But I think
that a lot of things that have happened after the
show have been very consistent with what our characters might
have done.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
Well, you try to think about that question and unpacking
on the reliving single.

Speaker 6 (39:44):
Okay, we don't think about it. That would be a
questions submitted.

Speaker 3 (39:50):
This questions.

Speaker 19 (39:54):
Are the fans and the friends of the show can
send in their questions, and so we call it true blue. Yeah,
so we will make sure that one so you heard
it here first and it will unpack it further.

Speaker 5 (40:05):
Thank you.

Speaker 19 (40:05):
He's giving us homework.

Speaker 17 (40:10):
Erica or miss Alexander. What do you want me to
call your Okay, Erica the great Eric got you the
great period. I was reading this article on msn and
MSNBC's website and the writer was talking about how you're
she discovered she was late. She had discovered living single
for the first time a year ago, and like deep
dived and like went and read conversations around it, and

(40:32):
she was trying to figure out why you didn't want
it enmy for your performance Oh that's good. And I
when I read it, I'm like, first of all, late
to the party, but welcome. But I thought about it,
and I was like, I mean, like, what's that feeling
like for you? Because yeah, like you said, you were
how old portraying the character? Twenty three portraying it? We
would have never known you sold it. You did it

(40:53):
like the storylines that y'all dived into, you know what
I mean? Like, did you ever feel like there were
things that should have happened for you in that role?

Speaker 7 (40:59):
For a minute, people, I'm unfortunately in a club that
no one wants to belong to, and especially if you
think that, and you know, I'll take the compliment, say
thank you very much. But I was right alongside people
like Cely Tyson and all these other people would never
want anything for the work that they had done. And
Cecily Tyson has since gotten an oscar and she got

(41:22):
it before she passed, and those types of things. But no,
I think blackness, racism, all the disparities and equities were there,
and especially in then what is the early nineties, And
I say the black or the berry, the sweet of
the juice, the tighter the noose they don't let you go.

Speaker 6 (41:39):
For so far.

Speaker 7 (41:40):
And that's real, and so I'm very gratified, but it's
nothing you can do about it. There's people like Abbot
Elementary and all the other people, and they've come and
doing very well. But you know, being a dark skin
actress and also being funny and maybe not being the
ideal of what they thought funny. Girls looked like they
know what to do with me, and I got offered
nothing after I finished that.

Speaker 6 (42:00):
You absolutely no.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
Wow, that's a shame, all right. When we come back,
we have more with Erica Alexander and Kim Coles. When
we come back, it's the breakfast club in the morning. Morning,
everybody's DJ Envy just hilarious. Charlomagne, the gud we are
the breakfast Club. We're still kicking with Erica Alexander and
Kim mc cooles.

Speaker 4 (42:17):
Charlomagne, how do you working on living single change change
your view of black sisterhood?

Speaker 3 (42:22):
And did it shift the way you approached friendships in
you your real life?

Speaker 19 (42:26):
Not for me, because I have incredible female relationships, incredible
if at my high school we just celebrated our forty
fifth anniversary last week, I couldn't come because I was
headed here for y'all, and so I've already had.

Speaker 6 (42:44):
Next week times.

Speaker 13 (42:47):
You got me here.

Speaker 19 (42:48):
Now I'll see all the to tighten it up, so
I'm real cute by then. But the point is I
always had really good friendships and and and actually it
felt normal to me to be around with men that
I respect. They were all different, but I respected, loved,
and so I had that and I had that strength.
So it just felt like that felt like home. I
don't know if that's the right answer.

Speaker 6 (43:08):
What was the question you're talking about? The family? Sorry
that the women friendships?

Speaker 7 (43:15):
You know, it was in all girls high school, Philadelphi
High School for girls. Got to give shout out, and
I wasn't good with girlfriends, they said. I always loved boys.
I always love men.

Speaker 6 (43:25):
I'm a guys girl.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
I always have.

Speaker 6 (43:28):
I grew up in Arizona. I'm a tomboy.

Speaker 5 (43:30):
I always thought of men.

Speaker 19 (43:31):
No, no, no, not that it wasn't that IDs, I understand.

Speaker 7 (43:36):
But for all that I went to an all girls
high school, I didn't necessarily think that I practiced much
because that was my preference.

Speaker 6 (43:42):
It kind of still is.

Speaker 7 (43:43):
I just think that there was a lot of freedom.
I thought that men had they took me, took me
for I don't say one of the guys. But once
you show you could stand up with them, I got
a lot of truth about who I was next to them,
and I thought sometime I was pulling my punches with
women like oh, don't say that, you're gonna make her feel.

Speaker 6 (44:01):
Like I'd have time for that.

Speaker 7 (44:02):
Yes, I completely resonate with you. That's how I grew
up the same way. I had maybe what three homegirls,
but I had like ten eleven. I always went where
the guys went. I'm hanging on the court. That's how
it became so quick on my feet with being exactly
having jokes throwing them back, they throwing them at me.
I didn't feel guys didn't get offended when I'm joking

(44:23):
with them. You know, girls they are a little bit more,
you know, and I'm saying they like, I'm not one.

Speaker 6 (44:27):
No, it was like, you know kind of you know,
you like projected in that chase too.

Speaker 7 (44:35):
I feel very protective respect that they do respect that
you like, Oh yeah, that's how girl.

Speaker 8 (44:39):
You know.

Speaker 6 (44:40):
So I've been like that as well.

Speaker 7 (44:41):
But I wanted to ask, what do either of you
think that friends the show Friends truly owe some of
its success to the groundwork laid by Living Single.

Speaker 19 (44:50):
One hundred thousand percent, one hundred thousand percent. Moving on
next question, No.

Speaker 9 (44:56):
I.

Speaker 19 (44:56):
This is a little fact that most people don't know
is that the president of the network, of their networker,
NBC at the time, had been asked if there was
any show that you wish you could have purchased for this,
you know, upcoming scene season. He said, I wish I
bought a Living Single, And then a year later there
was Friends, and so it absolutely tracks and yeah, a
great show, and wish them all well, but it absolutely

(45:18):
we influenced them. And it was also tough because you know,
we were both Warner Brothers production. We were on this
little ranch lot, you know, off to the side, and
they were on.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
The big lot.

Speaker 19 (45:29):
We have a cafeteria and you have little try you know,
bicycles to get from hither hither and then and and
the salary was huge, very different. What the access they
had to marketing, the access they had to all the
money and all the things was very different than what
we had.

Speaker 7 (45:44):
We had craft service table run by this old, old
white dude named Pops, and he's putting things out like
rich crackers and pickled eggs.

Speaker 6 (45:53):
And we're like, we're gonna fart all day.

Speaker 17 (45:57):
Better.

Speaker 6 (45:57):
It did get better.

Speaker 7 (45:58):
We had to ask for that, das for air conditioning,
all these other things, and had to I just come
from The Cosby Show, the biggest show in the world.
I wasn't expecting it to have that kind of you know, leverage.
But you did know when you thought you were being
treated less than and they didn't have to because, like
a lot of productions, if you put very little into

(46:19):
black people, we give you more. Black show Biz gives
you more. And when they see that, the investments not
necessarily there. And that's what you really miss.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
Out on the Living Single.

Speaker 4 (46:29):
Even did it get pitched the NBC because it would
make so much sense because, like you said, you were
on the Cosby Show.

Speaker 3 (46:33):
The success of the Kybee showing different world NBC should
have stood for nothing but colors after that's what success color.

Speaker 6 (46:42):
And that's not what didn't happen.

Speaker 7 (46:43):
Actually, the good thing about it, if you if you watch,
if you listen to the show and watch it, Kim
has the origin story.

Speaker 6 (46:48):
Kim is the origin story.

Speaker 19 (46:50):
The show is created around Queen Latifa and me a
lot of people don't know that. They called me into
immediate Warner Brothers and we want to do a show,
and a lot of people don't know this either. The
idea of the show. The impetus was, you remember the
movie Jungle Fever. It's a scene that they called the
War Council, and so a group of women sitting around
talking about men and relationships and you know what they're

(47:11):
dealing with. And they said to me, and I'm assuming
they said to Latifah too in a separate meeting, we
want to do a show that's about this. And I said,
if the show is about bashing men, I'm not interested.
And not that that scene in Jungle Fever was only
about bashing men, but they were handling a particular topic
and they were like, oh, okay, because I love men,
and so if we can talk about the relationships and

(47:32):
you know, the growth and the you know, being driven and.

Speaker 12 (47:35):
What do you want?

Speaker 19 (47:36):
I was like, I'm in. And they were having the
same meetings with Latifa. The two of us will put
together and then we together agreed that that Lee bowsorship,
you be the one to create the show, so to
be there at the beginning and to be involved in
creating Sinclair and involved in knowing what the relationships were
going to be to start with, and then to hear
it and watch it unfold. Was excited. They'll say the

(47:57):
best and you know privilege and.

Speaker 11 (47:59):
You know that too.

Speaker 7 (48:00):
We got to give her props because both she and
Latifa asked for a black show runner. There are very
few black in especialist in Hollywood, the writers, let alone
the showrunner. Vett Lee Bowser happened to be on different
world doing her things. She was on hanging with Mster Cooper.
She had the background, but they weren't necessarily going to
just give that to her. So you guys ask and
somebody female.

Speaker 6 (48:21):
That was yeah, that was like a yeah, they just
they just gave into that because during that time, I.

Speaker 19 (48:25):
Feel and if you you know, you get two people
that you've created a deal around and we both go, yeah,
she's the one. They go, Okay, well let's give her
a shot.

Speaker 7 (48:35):
Wow.

Speaker 19 (48:36):
And also you said that we both were at the
same agency, so our agency helped and and and Evett
was also at the same agency.

Speaker 7 (48:42):
It's called a Hollywood package. And so was Kim Fields
in that agency, and so was John Hinton. The only
two people not in that agency were me in TC.

Speaker 17 (48:51):
So did you guys talk, because a lot of times
now on TV, people are like, we sha conversations behind
the scenes, rally together and then go to the forefront
and act for we want did y'all did you wan.

Speaker 6 (48:59):
Queen and t for y'all?

Speaker 19 (49:00):
Agents get to do that?

Speaker 7 (49:01):
We did?

Speaker 19 (49:01):
We did so that list and us we each met
with her separately and we both together said, oh, she's
the one, let's go with her. And then you know,
the agents do their do their movements. You know that
that we do know about and that we don't know about.
But yeah, there was like, for example, the name of
the show was not originally Living Single. It was My
Girl and I tell a story on the podcast of

(49:25):
we were like they wanted to change the name to
Living Single, and we thought it was horrible. Who says
that nobody talks that way?

Speaker 8 (49:32):
Yeah, what's up?

Speaker 19 (49:32):
I'm Living Single? It's like, so I have a memory
and I don't know. Dana would have to correct me.
If we got into a little golf cart and went
from the plantation lot where we were.

Speaker 6 (49:44):
Over to the big lot and got.

Speaker 19 (49:46):
Invited into the office of the president of the network,
like you know, president of production company, right like the
way we would like to protest. And I was like,
all right, thank you for your feedback right now. And
it's like, oh, that's a terrible name. Now it's the

(50:07):
best name. Like what else would the show be called?

Speaker 3 (50:10):
Basically right, and.

Speaker 19 (50:13):
We got back in the golf cart the bill.

Speaker 5 (50:16):
You know, we have more with Erica Alexander and Kim
Coles when we come back, So don't move. It's the
Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is d j env
just hilarious.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still
kicking with Erica Alexander and Kim mc cooles.

Speaker 5 (50:30):
Charlomagne.

Speaker 4 (50:31):
I can't wait to hear the episode with TC carts
and because he's spoken about, you know, being fired from
living single after for their treatment, for the treatment compaying
to frinds.

Speaker 3 (50:41):
So how did the cat is the whole field when
he got fired, there was a grief, a lot of grief.

Speaker 8 (50:46):
Anybody fight for him, well then go on, we all.

Speaker 19 (50:51):
Fought for him, but it was done before. Here's what
the timing of it is. He was let go just
before the you know they call the announcements for the shows.
The upfront, we all come to New York. There's a
big announcement. We're on stage with Fox and all the
other Fox shows. I didn't find out until in the
hotel room, you know, the day before. Oh, by the way,
TC won't be there. He's been let go. So it's like,

(51:12):
so we're talking to that, We're talking to people and
going what's going on? And it was My understanding is
that it was already done, so you fight for him.
But I don't know what else I could have done
if the decision had already been made.

Speaker 6 (51:23):
I wanted not to come to work.

Speaker 7 (51:25):
I thought once we got on set that we would
talk about it and maybe just say we're not gonna work.

Speaker 6 (51:30):
That's like hardcore. But it didn't go down that way.

Speaker 7 (51:32):
And in fact, two years before I tried to leave
myself and threatened to be sued. So I already stepped
up and I knew where I could go. I was like,
I wasn't lord, see, I don't want to start crying.

Speaker 6 (51:51):
I wasn't.

Speaker 7 (51:52):
I wasn't happy. And the thing was, I didn't think
that I was being used well, and it's it's a
longer story than that, and I don't want to. It
needs more context for Ventny Bowser's sake, because Vetnie Bowser
had a lot to do with six different characters, right,
and there were lots of things going on. But also
I want to say something that emotionally, a month before

(52:12):
I got that show, originally the pilot, my father had passed.

Speaker 6 (52:15):
I had a lot of things that I still would mentally, yeah,
and we didn't know that Erica this, I never talked
about that mess. But the whole time you were there,
you never talked about your father passed. A No, because
I don't complain, I don't talk and do my work.

Speaker 19 (52:29):
Like you could know her father passed away at some
point because you talked. But I don't think I knew
that that had happened a month before. And you know
that this is one of the revelations that happened on
this podcast. It's like therapy.

Speaker 3 (52:40):
You're welcome.

Speaker 5 (52:41):
I didn't know.

Speaker 7 (52:42):
Yeah and no, but there was a lot of things
going on that you know you want to you you
think you want to talk about differently, maybe with your character,
and maybe the reception wasn't where I thought it was,
But I just said I gotta go because I'm like
i'd been in theater and been doing other things.

Speaker 6 (52:56):
I said, I can go back to New York. I
don't need this. And it didn't work out the way.
I got threatened to be sued and all.

Speaker 4 (53:03):
That, which is another reason you probably didn't tell everybody
what you was actually dealing with, because they'll do stuff like.

Speaker 3 (53:09):
That, I will sue you exactly.

Speaker 6 (53:11):
And I didn't have the most powerful agent.

Speaker 8 (53:14):
I didn't have that.

Speaker 7 (53:15):
I'd always gone on sets alone, you know, so I
was there alone, and that just trying to think it through.
And I thought, at the very least I could just
go back to what I was doing now, back to TC,
because that's what I think that he didn't have that.
We didn't have the armor, and we also were darker.
And I have to say, there's something to that feeling
like you're unprotected and when you get back and there

(53:38):
is no plan and you don't necessarily you know, friends
had gotten together and they all got together to talk
about their salary. They stopped going in and they got
their salaries corrected tremendously.

Speaker 6 (53:48):
It wasn't that feeling.

Speaker 7 (53:49):
Although we were all rebels and very supportive in our
own way, I don't think we knew what to do.

Speaker 6 (53:55):
And it hurts my.

Speaker 7 (53:55):
Heart because TC deserved more support and there was nothing
I could do. And I even said, look fire me,
I'm the one who would like to to go. And
it wasn't It wasn't something that could happen.

Speaker 6 (54:07):
It was wrong to do. It was wrong to do.

Speaker 4 (54:10):
That was he mad at y'all because he spoke up
for the treatment that you know, the unfair treatment of
y'all's receiving. And you know, you would think that would
be a collective thing, like you know, none of y'all
got in my back.

Speaker 19 (54:19):
So if this is happening behind the scenes, and if
you don't know, okay, we know that we were getting
not getting the right treatment. It's not like we were
brought into the meeting by the way, we're gonna let
TC go. It's not like I didn't know that. Latifa
didn't know that. We didn't know that in advance. I
didn't It was unexpected. And you wait until we arrive
in New York to go by the way, TC won't
be there because of this. Dana and I get on

(54:40):
the phone and go, what the hell's going on? We
get on the phone with Evet, and Evet it is
like that's it, that's it. I didn't know there was
something else that I could do in order to bring
him back. If it's been if you're being told that
it's done, that's it.

Speaker 5 (54:52):
Deal with it.

Speaker 19 (54:53):
And we don't go to wells.

Speaker 6 (54:54):
Because we were young. Of course, there's something we could
have done.

Speaker 7 (54:56):
If we all planned together and said we're not going in,
we could have We could have made something happened. He
could have called the NAACP. We could have done these things.
But these are things that we didn't think about. You know,
you didn't know how much leverage you'd have after that.
I'm telling you that I know. I thought, I know,
I said down at EVET, I know I had these conversations,
and I don't think he knew that. And it took years,
and we had a conversation where he said, I didn't y'all.

Speaker 6 (55:19):
Stick up for me. I said, that's not true.

Speaker 5 (55:21):
That's not true.

Speaker 7 (55:22):
That's not true at all. And I hate that you
went all these years thinking that didn't happen. But it's
also his story to tell, and there's some parts and
pieces that he thinks win a certain way, and there's
certainly I feel very much my outspokenness might have put
him in a position too. He thinks his outspokenness, but
I was very outspoken. I was writing letters to the

(55:43):
network and doing cools and walking out, you know, And
I don't think that that was necessarily always taken well
by people who wanted to control you, and they broke
apart to people me and him.

Speaker 19 (55:55):
And also there's another story to tell, you know, our story,
there's history, and then there's a story on their side.
Maybe this is a conversation that I don't know if
Vett has ever talked about it publicly. I don't know
if Warner Brothers ever would or if they ever cared
to so. So I feel like all those.

Speaker 6 (56:08):
People are gone now from Warner Brothers that we knew.

Speaker 19 (56:10):
But we we're bearing the burden of why didn't we
do something different and not not getting a chance to
get another view from what was what was happening.

Speaker 7 (56:18):
They were saying it was a money issue. It's not
a money issue. That's what that's what we paid enough
for to be a money issue. Wasn't a budgetary issue.
Wasn't because we bought on a new cast member and
we bought on they Dallas, and so that's not true.
I don't know what's true. All I know is that
he was gone. It was right, And let's go on
record to say he's a magnificent actor, always on time,
always knew his lines. It did not make sense, and

(56:40):
there you're living in the world that doesn't always make
sense and certainly is not fair.

Speaker 3 (56:44):
I had Instagram. Would you have gone live and just
aired out the whole cast?

Speaker 19 (56:47):
And I think back then we had nothing back. Of
course we would have.

Speaker 6 (56:51):
I would have.

Speaker 8 (56:52):
I'm telling you I would have.

Speaker 6 (57:00):
This day, yes, you know.

Speaker 7 (57:05):
And I didn't think that my badge was gonna work
the next day because I came in and I came
in here speaking of everybody. Anybody speak back, and I
knew I uh huh, whatever.

Speaker 6 (57:18):
No, you know, you said give me an because.

Later on me and called me whack. It was a
lot going on, but it's growing.

Speaker 19 (57:32):
It's not a conversation you could have had privately with
them to fix with.

Speaker 7 (57:34):
Me conversation before after that. So yeah, I wasn't wrong.
It was wrong the way I did it.

Speaker 19 (57:46):
Did the negotiation work for you?

Speaker 8 (57:47):
That period?

Speaker 5 (57:49):
That family?

Speaker 8 (57:51):
Family?

Speaker 6 (57:52):
We are here and we are family. What makes family?

Speaker 7 (57:55):
This conflict you don't go through this life with everything
personal collaboration, conflict and you know confusion.

Speaker 6 (58:01):
Yeah, leads the confession. We got that period conversion.

Speaker 3 (58:06):
They gotta go do, Sherry.

Speaker 5 (59:14):
Yeah, yeah, all right, let's get to the latest with Laura.

Speaker 6 (59:17):
Lauren becoming a street fast.

Speaker 5 (59:20):
She gets somebody that knows, somebody gets the details.

Speaker 6 (59:23):
I'm a long girl that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 5 (59:26):
She'd be having the latest on the law, the latest
with Lauren la Rossa.

Speaker 3 (59:31):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.

Speaker 5 (59:35):
It's the latest on the Breakfast Club. No, he's the more.

Speaker 6 (59:42):
All right, y'all?

Speaker 17 (59:42):
So uh, Indiana Paces star Tyree Talibert and his father
was suspended and definitely or for the foreseeable future after
getting into the altercation with Yannis say.

Speaker 6 (59:59):
The last thing from n B I.

Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Last name looked like something you see on the eye shot.

Speaker 17 (01:00:09):
And it's crazy because I wrote it out like so
I could get it about yes with Giannis. So, this
was a decision that was made by the PACER's front office. Reportedly,
so the decision was that he will not be able
to attend the team's home games or role games for
the foreseeable future.

Speaker 8 (01:00:27):
Uh.

Speaker 17 (01:00:27):
And this came from a Pacers spokesperson. They told esp
in this now, y'all. I'm sure you guys saw the
all the videos that went viral of Tarese's dad coming
onto the court. Now, Teresa's dad actually spoke out and
explained what happened with the verbal back and forth was
between him and say to listen to that.

Speaker 10 (01:00:44):
When I turned, it might have seemed like I was
looking at him, but I really was.

Speaker 3 (01:00:48):
I was looking through him.

Speaker 10 (01:00:49):
That's how it was in the moment. I know, it
looked like we were looking like I would staying him down,
you know, But it wasn't like that. It was in
the moment if I was looking right through it. And yes,
I had bandler in my hand going and I was
yelling yay. Yannis never said anything to me. I never
said anything to youngest. There was no backing poll. He

(01:01:12):
grabbed my hands. He put his poor head on my
fore head, and he said, don't disrespect me. Don't effing
disrespect me. And I said to him, I was not
trying to disrespect you, which I wasn't. I'm telling you
I did not do that on purpose.

Speaker 3 (01:01:27):
I really did not.

Speaker 10 (01:01:29):
And then I said to him, I love you. He
said back to me, I love you. We petted chest
he gave us a thumbs up and he walked away.

Speaker 4 (01:01:37):
I don't think he did it on purpose either, but
you know, emotions were high, and that's exactly why they
say don't make decisions off emotions, because he made a
choice off emotions and that choice has a consequence and
now he can't watch his son play.

Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
I was confused by the whole situation and shot the
shack chaquille on there. I spoke to him a day
ago and I was asking him about it, and he
was like, he was like, well, most people don't understand.

Speaker 5 (01:01:57):
His family and friends after the game are allowed to
go on.

Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
The courts while he was actually on the court, because
you're allowed to go on the court with your family.
And also I asked him was it bad and he
was like, no, it's part of the game. He was
like he was you know at some games and they
were yelling uh, gorilla love, and he was like it
never affected him because it was just part of the game.
So he felt like it wasn't that big of a deal.
He said, family members and friends and yell at you

(01:02:19):
all the time. He didn't think it was that big
of a deal.

Speaker 17 (01:02:21):
Well, Shaq talked about that on inside the NBA. We
had that clip as well. People were pissed at shacks take.

Speaker 6 (01:02:25):
Listen, he probably know dad is.

Speaker 3 (01:02:29):
Said something because he's on the corner in his face
or what don't you can't do that?

Speaker 5 (01:02:34):
Can'tnot do that said something?

Speaker 3 (01:02:36):
Man, he's an idiot.

Speaker 20 (01:02:37):
If you think that's why you're an idiot too. Gianna says, no,
that dad is an idiot. And if you think you're
an idiot too, I will say that Nod is always
on the court. I don't say this, his dad is
always on the court. On the court, Joanna said something
to him.

Speaker 5 (01:02:54):
That's not true. He could line behind what do you
mean walking in line behind the suns? He shud be
on this court. He didn't play in the game, always.

Speaker 8 (01:03:02):
On the.

Speaker 11 (01:03:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 17 (01:03:04):
People were pissed off at Shack's take though, and for
how he even how he told you that he felt
because they felt like if you watch that second angle
where he runs where tyresis Dad runs out with the
tower whatever that is uh, and he's the exchange. People
were like, that was taught in him and you shouldn't
have done it, even if it's just an excitement, and
you shouldn't have been able to.

Speaker 4 (01:03:22):
Do that that's an interesting debate that they're having because
all of them are players. Can they've been players? Kenny Smith,
Charles Barkley, and so Shack saying you can do that,
but y'all and Kenny are saying you can't. I don't
know what's true, right, but I know I'm gonna listen
to them before I come to my own.

Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
I think shack thing is is he's been through a
lot worse on the court, so he was like, that's
light work. He goes back and forth for people all
day long. So that was his take on it when
I spoke to him.

Speaker 17 (01:03:43):
But that's a conversation right now though, And I'm not
I don't watch sports, but when I hear people talk
about it, they talk about how the game is a
lot different than it was, like as they protect the
players physically and just what you can say at them
from the sidelines and all of that way different than
when Shack was playing.

Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
Players be wilding on people, and they should because people
be wilding on the players. So listen, you went to
shot House was just then with the white women, you know,
you know, it's so funny with the Shack House, right,
and Shaq was like just tell you about the white woman.

Speaker 5 (01:04:05):
I'm like, yeah, he.

Speaker 2 (01:04:05):
Goes Jennifer Amanda Becky come out, and I'm looking I'm
looking at.

Speaker 5 (01:04:09):
Like, I'm just joking.

Speaker 20 (01:04:10):
I'm white woman.

Speaker 4 (01:04:11):
How would you go to that manhouse knowing that he
got random white woman just walking around?

Speaker 10 (01:04:15):
Man?

Speaker 5 (01:04:16):
Thank you, Lauren, she was with you. Yes, make the podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:04:19):
I'm just making sure. I was let him go.

Speaker 5 (01:04:23):
I was let him go.

Speaker 6 (01:04:24):
I was in the basement.

Speaker 5 (01:04:25):
Yes.

Speaker 7 (01:04:26):
Wasn't it like a little dungeon like Kelly dungeon that
he described on the documentary?

Speaker 5 (01:04:29):
God damn, Jeff, it was.

Speaker 8 (01:04:32):
It was.

Speaker 6 (01:04:32):
It was like a bunch of wood and it was
like the bears and the brick.

Speaker 15 (01:04:37):
I was not.

Speaker 21 (01:04:39):
Mew him out.

Speaker 5 (01:04:40):
He did slide me out, but I was not in
a Kelly's dungeon.

Speaker 6 (01:04:42):
You believe all that? How bad was you doing?

Speaker 3 (01:04:45):
No, that's not the question. How bad was you in
the nineties? And you must have a little bad bitch
get flowing out that you.

Speaker 5 (01:04:55):
I was hosting a mixed tape and he left me
in the hotel.

Speaker 6 (01:04:57):
You never you stayed there, your grown ass, he said.

Speaker 3 (01:05:04):
You wonder why he'd just be running around here? Houm ignition.
Every now and then for no reason, stop it.

Speaker 10 (01:05:11):
You didn't.

Speaker 5 (01:05:13):
Whoa whoa whoa Yo.

Speaker 17 (01:05:17):
Maybe that's crazy for this conversation to be happening. You're
sitting over there in.

Speaker 5 (01:05:20):
That pink miss Salmon, and look now his face matchic.

Speaker 6 (01:05:26):
You weren't really grown. I never thought about that.

Speaker 5 (01:05:28):
Why did you just not go and leave? I did leave.

Speaker 4 (01:05:32):
He stayed and waited a good lord time, Kelly said,
sitting in that nigga sack.

Speaker 3 (01:05:42):
He didn't move. It was not okay, wag your hotel.

Speaker 6 (01:05:48):
Ask the right questions. I never thought why he didn't
just leave.

Speaker 3 (01:05:51):
He didn't want to. He didn't want.

Speaker 8 (01:05:56):
You know, he was trying to better his career. You
know what.

Speaker 5 (01:06:00):
That's the latest, Lauren, thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:06:01):

Now?

Speaker 13 (01:07:49):
They they mad because they're not getting represented in the movie.

Speaker 8 (01:07:53):
They wasn't in the movie.

Speaker 5 (01:07:54):
It wasn't now.

Speaker 4 (01:07:55):
I mean it's nineteen thirties, Mississippians. Asians were representing black people, white,
more Irish people exactly, and that was now was my
take on it.

Speaker 13 (01:08:04):
I'm like, yo, y'all was still in Mexico. Y'all ain't
want to come down there to Mississippi at nineteen thirty two, they.

Speaker 3 (01:08:10):
Were still with you, sir, I don't. I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:08:13):
Okay, Well, then you said you wanted to give it.

Speaker 9 (01:08:17):
Gun dollars man all that all line.

Speaker 4 (01:08:20):

movie can't represent everybody.

Speaker 7 (01:08:24):
Everything is Now, how are you called to be defending
the Mexicans but just gave one donkey of to day?

Speaker 5 (01:08:29):
Hello? Who's this?

Speaker 15 (01:08:31):
This is the meta? I'm gonna get it.

Speaker 14 (01:08:33):
Donk here today to my son, because he acts like
he had to get it out the mud and he
misspool in his whole life.

Speaker 3 (01:08:41):
What's yourname? What's your son name?

Speaker 23 (01:08:45):
Brendan put it out there.

Speaker 3 (01:08:48):
Yeah, she said, Brendan never even seen much. When you
want to.

Speaker 6 (01:08:50):
Rappresent, you've never seen it. He wanted a little taste
of it.

Speaker 14 (01:08:55):
I don't know.

Speaker 13 (01:08:56):
I don't know why though I got it. I worked
too hard.

Speaker 14 (01:08:59):
I just got off one job, about to go to another,
take the kids to school.

Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
Like, he ain't seen money and he don't even like
to play with it in and when he was little.

Speaker 4 (01:09:08):
I think because so many people like to celebrate struggle,
especially the rappers, and they make that they make the
struggle look so fly.

Speaker 8 (01:09:15):
Yeah, and you got to go through the struggle to
get the way you need to be.

Speaker 3 (01:09:18):
But that's not the case.

Speaker 13 (01:09:19):
It's not Actually, he could not even have to worry
about a struggle, just have that little go.

Speaker 14 (01:09:25):
You know, he's on down the road.

Speaker 17 (01:09:27):
But I'm confused.

Speaker 4 (01:09:29):
Well, we got to teach all kids about legacy, and
we got to teach all kids about generations, generational blessings
and how it's fly, you know, to come from a
legacy of people who you know, established themselves in.

Speaker 3 (01:09:39):
Passing it on.

Speaker 5 (01:09:39):
That's right, I agree, all right, thank.

Speaker 3 (01:09:42):
You, good morning. Who's this, Jane? Who you want to
give donkey to day to Jay?

Speaker 14 (01:09:48):
I want to give a dog kid a day to us?

Speaker 3 (01:09:50):
The black Okay?

Speaker 13 (01:09:52):
The reason why the last couple of days, the last
couple of weeks or so, I've been seeing a lot
of people asking about the movie, filing the ones who
ain't seeing it yet. But every time you got somebody
that wants to find out about the movie, you got
one of us supposed to a link to the movie
on the old social media like, yo, heren't even got
gonna check it out, He's gonna watch it at home.

Speaker 5 (01:10:11):
Man.

Speaker 13 (01:10:12):
That so, Man, when I see a movie like this, yeah,
we rarely get. And this is half the reason why.

Speaker 3 (01:10:17):
Because we love we're.

Speaker 13 (01:10:19):
Making the hell out of our own all our own stuff.
I don't know, man, I just feel like we ain't
talking today. So how we how we do our own people?

Speaker 3 (01:10:26):
Sometimes we have to preserve our art.

Speaker 4 (01:10:29):
And I mean, if you know that somebody is trying
to make some money off something, why would you take
it and leaking to people?

Speaker 13 (01:10:35):
That's especially something is good. The way they just promote
this movie, the way they get this movie. I've seen
it white. I don't went on two days to see
this movie. And it's time to go.

Speaker 3 (01:10:44):
So listen, you don't have to watch it at home.

Speaker 13 (01:10:46):
We don't it don't. It ain't gonna be. You don't
get that experience at whole man. You don't get to
support them the way that you're supposed to at home.

Speaker 3 (01:10:52):
Wait a minute, now, did you go to see Centers
with two different women?

Speaker 5 (01:10:56):
I did.

Speaker 4 (01:10:57):
So you're blaming the movie Centers on the fact that
you will play a player. So I said, you're trying
to say you you want.

Speaker 13 (01:11:01):
To no, no, this that that part didn't have nothing
to do with it. I supported his light.

Speaker 6 (01:11:08):
Tell him you focusing on the wrong thing.

Speaker 3 (01:11:10):
Hey, I ain't gonna lie. They got on the wrong thing.

Speaker 13 (01:11:13):
I've seen it light.

Speaker 3 (01:11:14):
Hey, they got support.

Speaker 13 (01:11:15):
That's all you gotta worry about. My money has been spent.

Speaker 3 (01:11:17):
Flight. I ain't gonna furnt that. They got some fly
ass lines and sentences.

Speaker 4 (01:11:20):
I don't want to get a movie away, but boy,
they got some move that's some lines that the Mickey
horny right, yeah, yeah, Hey.

Speaker 13 (01:11:25):
Look I'm telling you after the movie. You can't go
wrong with that movie. It's just a it's a great
night after the movie. Because she's ready, you ready, I'm
saying this. You gotta goth support it?

Speaker 6 (01:11:36):
Why not?

Speaker 13 (01:11:36):
Why would you do yourself that? This all that off?
And I'm going to see such a great movie.

Speaker 3 (01:11:40):
I agree with you.

Speaker 8 (01:11:41):
What did you go say it for a third time
with another girl?

Speaker 3 (01:11:45):
You got plenty? Yeah, yeah, you said what man, there's
a pig.

Speaker 13 (01:11:58):
Yeast. I want to go see the fourth third run
and look.

Speaker 6 (01:12:02):
She already saw it twice too, so you will.

Speaker 5 (01:12:05):
Be Oh, so you've been.

Speaker 3 (01:12:08):
With three different guys.

Speaker 6 (01:12:10):
It ain't no problem, then, ain't no crime.

Speaker 4 (01:12:14):
They can't hear you, Lauren across the goddamn room three
times already.

Speaker 17 (01:12:18):
So you go do your third time. Then I might
catch you on the fourth time. But you got to
see where you're at in like, okay.

Speaker 13 (01:12:23):
Wow, that's fun, because I will go see the fourth tub.
So we go through the fourth tun I definitely want

We got a special guest in the building.

Speaker 4 (01:13:22):
A twenty twenty eight presidential candidate, and the Governor of Maryland,
Wes Moore, is here.

Speaker 3 (01:13:27):
How are you my brother's back, man. It is going
to be bad. Good to have you back, man. How
you feeling. First of all, I'm feeling great.

Speaker 8 (01:13:32):
Okay, I'm feeling great, man. Listen. And you know, contrary
to everything else going on in the country, Maryland's doing great.

Speaker 7 (01:13:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:13:39):
We continue pushing. I mean, I honestly like getting really
big wins far people, and so we're we're excited.

Speaker 4 (01:13:45):
I wanted to talk to you about all of that
because you know, I know that you're implementing a lot
of great things in Maryland, and I wonder what could
be replicated on a national level to protect us from
a lot of things that this administration is doing that
hurt working class people especially.

Speaker 8 (01:14:00):
Well, here's the thing I mean, I think right now
we're seeing you know, people you keep on talking about
what's the power of the president and the power of
the presidency. I think people all see them right now.
What's the power of governors? You know what I'm saying,
what's the power of states. We have a whole lot
more authority than people sometimes give us credit for. But frankly,
a whole lot more power and authority even think a
lot of governors understanding can take on. So, for example,

(01:14:20):
you know, Maryland has more exposure to these federal cuts,
the federal public service cuts that the Trump administration is
just arbitrarily and in many cases, by the way, illegally doing.
And so what Maryland has done, We've come up with
the most aggressive plan to be able to say, how
are we going to streamline and support our federal workers,
create advanced supports for them, but also making sure that
we can streamline them into available state jobs that we need. So,

(01:14:43):
for example, there are tens of thousands of vacancies when
it comes to credentialed educators inside of the state of Maryland.
We have thousands of people in healthcare, nurses, etc. That
we have as vacancies in the state of Maryland. So
I'm like, sofy, people who are qualified and who are interested,
We're going to streamline them, get them trained up, credentialed,
and get them inside of the classrooms, get them inside

(01:15:04):
of our healthcare facilities. Because you're solving two problems, right.
You're solving a fact that we have a shortage of
people in education healthcare and at the same time creat
your jobs. You're creating jobs, right. So I look at
how Maryland has moved now in just these first months
where Maryland now is going on really the fourteenth straight
month of amongst the lowest unemployment rates in the entire country.

(01:15:24):
Maryland has now has an unemployment rate of three percent,
which is below well below the national average. Despite the
fact that we've had more federal cuts because of the
Trump administration than most other states. And so I'm just like,
as as governors, you can be creative about making sure
that you can get your economy moving. You can be
creative about how you getting new businesses on board, about
how you're supporting your small businesses, how you're supporting your

(01:15:47):
minority owned businesses, and you don't have, like I don't
wait for permission from the federal government to do anything.
And that's the thing I think that's the kind of
posture that you're watching governors now able to move in
this month.

Speaker 7 (01:15:57):
What are your thoughts on Trump not wanting to bring
home kill mar Garcia because he was living in Maryland,
was a guy of his right.

Speaker 8 (01:16:05):
And here's the thing for me, this actually has nothing
to do with immigration, because people will talk about this
is you know, I love what he's doing right immigration.
I said, well, first of all, if Donald Trump really
wanted to fix immigration, he could do it simply by
calling up Speaker Johnson and saying I need a comprehensive
immigration bill on my desk next week. And you know
we'll be on his desk next week. A comprehensive of

(01:16:25):
immigration built because Donald Trump is the votes. He's got
the House, and he's got the Senate. This has nothing
to do with immigration. This just simply has to do
with violating the Constitution.

Speaker 3 (01:16:35):
That's what this is.

Speaker 8 (01:16:36):
And so when I think about the case of Abrego Garcia,
my point is this, due process matters in this. He
needs to come home, he needs to stand trial and
then let a judge decide what his long term you know,
a situation is going to be not Donald Trump. If
they say, well, he was doing X, Y and Z okay, fine,

(01:16:57):
let him come home, let him stand trial, and let
him do what basic due process offers to every single person.
And if all of that determined is true, then absolutely
he should then face consequences and face the sentencing. But
not because Donald Trump looked at a photoshop picture and
said this is going to be his faith. Because that
is a very very dangerous slippery slope. And so my

(01:17:18):
whole thing is this, just follow the Constitution, follow due process,
and follow what the Supreme Court in a nine zero
decision said that he needs to come home and stand trial.
I just I stand with the law on thiss and
I stand with the Constitution correct me.

Speaker 4 (01:17:32):
On some things, right, because they mister Garcia had acknowledged
that he entered the US illegally in two thou and twelve,
So was he he was.

Speaker 8 (01:17:39):
Here illegally, that's he was undocumented, That's right.

Speaker 4 (01:17:41):
So if he's undocumented, does the Constitution still apply to him?

Speaker 8 (01:17:45):
Yes, Okay, there's still constitutional protections. Okay, and especially because
what he is being held for or tried for right
now are things that he has not not only not
been convicted for, not even had a formal accusation. So
this is the problem, is that so Donald Trump right
now is trying to rewrite the Constitution. Donald Trump right
now is violating the Constitution by not allowing him to

(01:18:07):
come home and have due process. So yes, so the
constitution still offers, uh, you know, still offers what is
the guidance around the federal government's responsibility, around states responsibility,
and that still does fall under the situation of Kimbergo Garcia.

Speaker 4 (01:18:20):
I think that's what's missing in this whole conversation, the
fact that you know that Martin Luther King Jr.

Speaker 3 (01:18:25):
Said an injustice anywhere as a threat to justice everywhere.

Speaker 4 (01:18:27):
So if you see somebody not receiving due process when
they're supposed to that could impact any of us at
any given time, and none of us want to just
be snatched off the street and deported to another country
just because.

Speaker 8 (01:18:37):
And and listen, here's the danger today. It's Karburgo Garcia,
who is it tomorrow, Laura Laosi?

Speaker 6 (01:18:43):
Oh my gosh, you name?

Speaker 19 (01:18:45):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:18:46):
I'm just saying it couldn't be saying I'm using an
example and try to get him.

Speaker 7 (01:18:50):
You can't tell them that you're from Delawa because they like,
oh please, everybody's gonna even respect.

Speaker 6 (01:18:54):
Then why would y'all put me in there?

Speaker 3 (01:18:57):
No, but we're just using it as an example to
say it could be anybody.

Speaker 6 (01:19:00):
Main the guy.

Speaker 3 (01:19:00):
No, but it could be anything.

Speaker 17 (01:19:01):
You know, you're coming for you for me. Did you
watch the interview that when Trump sat down with Terry Morin.

Speaker 3 (01:19:11):
I didn't watch the whole thing, okay, but did.

Speaker 17 (01:19:13):
You see the part I said the tattoo thing, because
they were going back and forth about the tattoos or
or whatever. When you see stuff like that, because then
media picks it up the other way and uses these
tattoos that Trump that there's evidence that doesn't support what
Trump is saying, but they use it as a well,
he deserved what he got, and how how do you
guys in the government didn't fight that because the public
opinion sways so much.

Speaker 8 (01:19:34):
I didn't see the whole interview. I did see clips
of it, and I saw that part. And what's really
sad to me isn't just the fact that we have
a president of the United States who is literally buying
any conspiracy theories and photoshop pictures in front of our eyes.
What really also bothers me about it is it's the
people around them who enable this. It's the people around
him who tell them this is true. The people aroundhim
will feed him these pictures and say, yes, mister Pressmot

(01:19:57):
you know he had MS thirteen on his knuckles when
he didn't. In many ways, this has nothing actually to
do with kil Marlburgo Garcia. This has nothing even to
do with his situation. This just simply has to do
with are we willing to follow the law? Are we
a country of laws? Or are we now a country
where president of the United States gets to pick and
choose which laws we follow, which laws we've don't. Are
we a country that actually follows the Constitution? Are we

(01:20:18):
a country that listens when the Supreme Court in a
unanimous decision. And let me be clear, this Supreme Court
hardly ever decides anything.

Speaker 3 (01:20:25):
That is Trump's card exactly because this is Trump's court.
He put three people on nine zero.

Speaker 8 (01:20:31):
The man needs to come home and stand trial. And
we have a we have an administration right now that's
literally using the Constitution as a suggestion box. So that's
fundamentally the problem and what we continue to, you know,

(01:20:51):
deal with, and the fact that the relationship between the
federal government and our states really has been ruptured.

Speaker 2 (01:20:57):
Hi, we have more with the Governor of Maryland westmore
when we come back. It's the breakfast club, Good Morning,
annoying everybody's dj NV Jess hilarious, Charlemagne the guy, we
are the breakfast club law on La Rossay here as well.
We're still kicking it with the Governor of Maryland west Moore, Charlemagne.

Speaker 4 (01:21:12):
I love the fact that governors have their boots on
the ground. And I saw Governor Jos Shapiro on Bill
Maher and I forgot what Bill asked him, but he
was just like, look, I'm not focused on what they
got going on in DC. I'm focused on what I
got going on in Pennsylvania. So I like that, how
do we keep you from being a corny DC type.

Speaker 3 (01:21:31):
In DC? In DC guy?

Speaker 8 (01:21:34):
So corney man, listen. You know how I guess is
I didn't come from that. When I first ran for governor,
I ran against statewide elected officials, I ran against havinget secretaries,
the former head of the DNC, the former head the
Democratic Party ran for governor and then me, a guy
who'd never run for office.

Speaker 3 (01:21:51):
For my life.

Speaker 8 (01:21:52):
But I was connected to the people, right. It was
the people that made me the governor. It wasn't a party,
it wasn't a political establishing. In fact, the political stablishing
on wanted somebody else. So when I got into that seat,
I decided, I'm not going to turn into something that
I never was in the first place.

Speaker 3 (01:22:07):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 8 (01:22:07):
So the way I have continued to lead is I'm
about the people. I will always stand with the people.
A political party does not give me my talking points.

Speaker 4 (01:22:15):
Good, don't let them change you, because you know they're
already talking about you in twenty twenty eight and they'll
be like, wells, come over and start saying this, and
start doing that, and meet this person and take money
from this person, and then you know what I mean, Like, I.

Speaker 8 (01:22:25):
Don't play that game because I didn't get here. That's
not how I got here in the first place. Man Or,
I am the most improbable governor in this country when
you think about my journey, right, when you think about
my life path, and you know, and and again, I'm
a person of faith. And Hezekiah Walker, no, he's got
a line he says, when I think about my story,
I can't help but give God glory.

Speaker 3 (01:22:43):
There you go.

Speaker 8 (01:22:44):
I know where my strength comes from. My strength doesn't
come from a political party. My strength don't come from
political bosses. I don't follow that. I follow the people
that got me here in the first place, the people
who bucked the political system, which was the people. And
so I'm not at all concerned about becoming a creature
of something that didn't create me in the first place.

(01:23:05):
And actually, I think that the main thing that people
can do right now is stay true and stay committed
and stay authentic. You know, when people say, well, what
direction should people go in or how should people talk
or whatever like that, I always find that question so confusing.
I'm like, be authentic, because if you're not authentic, the
people will suss it. Out and the people will snuff
it out and they'll take care of you the way

(01:23:25):
they take care of you.

Speaker 3 (01:23:27):
This is something that I love about you.

Speaker 4 (01:23:28):
It's something that doctor Lumar Johnson loves about you, the
fact that you have a black woman. And because so
many people in positions of power like you and government,
especially black people, they don't. Now, love is love, love
who you want to love. But as a man who
love to see black men with black women, and I
have a beautiful black families, I love it.

Speaker 3 (01:23:46):
What is the importance to that?

Speaker 5 (01:23:47):
You know?

Speaker 8 (01:23:47):
It's funny when when I got married we're married now
for eighteen years. My wife, she's beautiful man, and she's
just an amazing human being. I remember when we said
our vows. This shows you how corny I was when
we first got married. We give our vows and I'm like,
you know my vows. I'm gonna keep it fresh and sexy.
Jesus Christ, I'm gonna keep it fresh and sex.

Speaker 3 (01:24:13):
That sound like someone.

Speaker 8 (01:24:19):
In Baltimore, But you know what her val was to me.
She said, I will be your greatest defender.

Speaker 3 (01:24:28):
That's what black women and that's what they've always been.

Speaker 15 (01:24:31):
Like.

Speaker 8 (01:24:31):
I'm telling you, man, when you think about what Black
women have meant to us, you know, the whole You know,
we was raised by women, got a game for women,
you know what I'm saying, Like, black women have always
been our anchor. Black women have always been our guide.
Black women have always been the ones to when the
whole world denied us, they defended us and they lifted

(01:24:53):
us up. And you know, and I think about this
where even the work that we're doing right now in
Maryland around our young men and boys, do you know
who beautifully have been some of the greatest champions of
the work that Marilyn is doing that really the nation
leading work on supporting our young men and boys. Women
because they know that's talking about their sons and their

(01:25:13):
husbands and their fathers and their uncles and their friends.
And is so beautiful to watch because it is very
indicative of how Black women and women as a whole
have always been our greatest offenders. That when the whole
world came at us, oftentimes it was women who stood
in front of us with shields and say not today.

(01:25:35):
And I cannot be more lucky about the fact that
I've married my best friend. I married someone who I
love and who I respect and who I adore and
someone who I'm so thankful is on my side because
I never want to be on the other side of
her spirit ever. But someone who I am, who I
will ride for because she's always walefus.

Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
Oh my god, beautiful.

Speaker 6 (01:26:09):
She's the first African American first lady to say she is.

Speaker 7 (01:26:12):
She sure is, she sure is.

Speaker 8 (01:26:13):
She's a beast too, She's a beast. Y'all gotta come down,
y'all gonna come.

Speaker 6 (01:26:17):
In fact, you're gonna have crabs if we come.

Speaker 8 (01:26:19):
Oh, absolutely absolutely, And in fact she is the co
chair of the Prignance Festival, so for y'all, so you know,
you know, pregnant so Pregnancance.

Speaker 5 (01:26:34):
The second leg.

Speaker 8 (01:26:35):
Yes, it is the second leg of the Triple Crown.
That one of the biggest horse races inside of the
entire country. But it's but it's also it's a big
deal because it's a whole festival around it and it's
in beautiful Park Heights, Baltimore, the home of Brandon Scott.
But my, but my amazing wife, our state's first lady
is the co chair. You got to see what she
is doing the build out. She's having club quarantine. Uh

(01:26:59):
D nice is coming down there. Bring bringing Jada kids,
bringing too short, I mean, bring everybody from seventeenth.

Speaker 6 (01:27:06):
Yes, I'll be there at me fourteenth week of stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:27:12):
Well, right, Governor Westmore, thank you brother. We appreciate you, man.
We love the work you're doing in Maryland. I mean,
you know, somebody need to replicate it on the national stage.
And I hope that, you know, somebody gets the opportunity
to so, because I don't know if we will have
a democracy in two thousand twenty eight or night, but
we'll see, Oh we will.

Speaker 8 (01:27:29):
As long as we don't as all were gonna forfeit it. Yeah,
now that's what I'm saying, like, like, I mean, like
we have to understand man, it's like the power does
belong to the people. That's the beauty of where we're
at right now. And and I'll say this one thing
far close too, And this is why Maryland I think
actually is really important in this situation. I'm a big
history buff, so like, especially in really difficult times, I

(01:27:51):
generally tend to lean on history, and I like a
lot of Maryland history. You know, in really difficult times
like now, I'll read about famous Marylanders like Harriet Tubman
or Frederick Douglass or Thirdgood Marshal. And I think to myself,
imagine having a conversation with Harriet Tubman, who, by the way,
one of the great things about being governor is I
have the power to commission. And I made Harriet Tubman
a general last year, so she's now General Harriet Tubman.

(01:28:14):
And I think about what would a conversation be like
with General Tubman telling her about the dangers of this moment.
And I think about the way she would look at
me and say, do you know what I've been through?
Do you know what it was like when I had
to run from my life for my freedom in the
middle of the night, running from dogs and people with guns.
And then when I finally made it to Pennsylvania and

(01:28:34):
I got my freedom, I then decided to go back
to bring more people and where she became one of
the greatest conductors in the underground railroad. And I think
to myself, what a conversation where Harriet Tubman will be
like telling her how tough my job, how difficult we've
got it, and watch her look at me and say
I would have shot him.

Speaker 22 (01:28:50):
Yeah, why are you are with the people in Congress?

Speaker 6 (01:29:00):
You know what I mean, in the middle of the night.

Speaker 5 (01:29:06):
In the middle of the night.

Speaker 3 (01:29:07):
Now, I get what you're saying. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 8 (01:29:09):
But like, let's let's not forget where we come from.

Speaker 3 (01:29:11):
Like for all these people like, oh this is tough
and oh this we don't.

Speaker 8 (01:29:14):
Please don't forget our history. Please don't forget our ancestors.
Please don't forget what they had to go through. And listen,
you know, as Kate I says, we're gonna be don't
take the Harriet telling thing out of context. That was
a nice black joke.

Speaker 3 (01:29:30):
We're not going to shoot anybody.

Speaker 23 (01:29:32):
Okay, think about exactly, but you know, tell okay, I
know you gotta go.

Speaker 6 (01:29:46):

Oh she did, all right, she did.

Speaker 12 (01:32:20):
What would you guys think of the subject matter? Spend

now I just want you to spend money going to
a face.

Speaker 3 (01:32:27):
Yeah, that's recognize because at the end of the day,
we're humans.

Speaker 4 (01:32:34):
Humans need love, human need humans need actual other human interaction.
It sound good, you know, just spend the money on me,
all that super busial stuff. That's what I want to know.
You don't just things and don't mean nothing.

Speaker 7 (01:32:46):

for the purpose of love and not just money again,
you know.
