Speaker 1 (00:00):
And some Donkey days just said himself, I was ready.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
I never read them.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Donkey other day again, Charlam, I'm a duncan.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
D Charlotte's true.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Yes Donkey Today for Thursday, December eleventh goes the actress
Hillary Swink. You know Hillary Swink, two time Oscar winner,
she won for Boys Don't Cry and Million Dollar Baby. Well,
she recently had to apologize because she snapped, lashed out, berated, scolded.
What's some other words for when of the white women
is in caraen Old and she's upset with you?

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Lamb bastard? Okay, lamb bastard of mother? All right now.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
I was looking at this story on page six, and
it was a mother named Jada Buffous I think it's
how you pronounce her last name. And Jada was taking
her two terminally ill sons.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Okay she was.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
She has two terminally ill sons, Mason seven and Jack four,
and she was taking them to.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Disneyland for a Make a Wish trip.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Okay, I repeat, Jada was taking her two terminally ill
sons the Disneyland for a Make a Wish trip. And
she was at lax at baggage claim and she was
walking next to Hillary's Swink. Now, Jada said she did
a double take on her because duh, it's Hillary Swink,
and you know she's a fan of her movies and stuff.
Jada said she did a double take, and you know
she took her phone out because she got distracted and

(01:22):
was trying to find her Make a Wish kids and
her husband. She said, I just looked like, you know,
I was trying to call my husband and then this happened.
Let me read Jada's tweet last Monday at LAX, I
was trying to find my son during his Make a
Wish trip to Disney when Hillary Swink turned around and
snapped at me.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
You got what you needed, get what you came for.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Enjoy that picture, Jada says, ma'am, I wasn't taking a
picture of you. I was trying to find my two
terminally ill boys at baggage claim. But thanks for poking
at a stressed mom on her kids make a Wish trip.
Iconic timing because she lived here in Spokane long time ago.
It's oh random. Now, let the record show Jada needed

(02:03):
to let her social.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
Media follow us. No she met Hillary Swink.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Okay, please remember that in this thing called life everyone
got their own reality show going, and we all could
be guest star as an extras at any moment. All right,
Jada was sharing space with Hillary, and because of Hillary
and the way she acted, Hillary became a guest star
in Jada's show. So no, so now Jada got content,

(02:26):
okay bonting if she's a blood. Hillary said to Jada,
you got what you needed, get what you came for.
Enjoy that picture. And then Jada said, Hillary stormed off.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
A little bit.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Well guess what, Hillary, as you found found out, Jada
wasn't really thinking about you like that. Okay, Yes, she
did a double take, but she had her own life
going on.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
She got two terminally ill kids, she's on a make
a Wish trip.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Just because somebody noticed you, ma'am and pulled out a
phone doesn't mean they were pulling out a phone to
take a picture of you.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
I know we may not realize this in twenty twenty five,
but phones do other things than take pictures. People pull
out phones to make calls, they pull out phones to text,
they pull out phones to check the temperature.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
I understand, Hillary, You're a Hollywood star.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Okay, won a couple of oscars but understand when in
a space like the airport, life is about interconnectedness, all right,
not just you being the main character, but the Hillary's credit.
She clearly felt stupid, and she reached out to Jada
via Instagram to apologize and explain she was worried about
her twin toddlers being photographed. Understandable, understandable, But Hillary Swank,

(03:31):
You're Hillary Swink. If you're in public and don't want
you and your family to be seen, then you have
to take steps to make that happen. Okay, take the
proper precautions. Doesn't mean people have the right to overstep
their boundaries, because folks nowadays will just walk up with
the cameras out, you know, ready to take a picture, video,
already recording. So I understand you being on guard. Okay,
those folks actually deserve to be snapped at. But she

(03:52):
can't just assume because a person looks at you and
then pulls their phone out that they are looking to
take a picture of you. Are with you, okay, let said,
no matter how famous you are. And this isn't even
a lesson strictly for famous folks, because I don't even
know what being famous means in this era. But no
matter how famous you are, a little patience and empathy
go a lot further than snapping at a stress stranger,

(04:14):
because that stress stranger is just as stressed as you are.
That person is looking for the kids, and you worried
about your kids too. Okay, you don't know what that
person is dealing with, just like she don't know what
you dealing with.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
So just take a deep breath sometime before you assume.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
The worst, because everybody not thinking about you.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Please give Hillary swake to Sweet Sounds of the Hamiltons.
Oh no, you are the doggie.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
Of the day, the dogee.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
All the day. Ye, you're not always the main character,
even if you want oscars for being the main character.
He yo.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
I remember I was in the airport, right, and I
did that.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
It's before you.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
I was in the airport.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
I was.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
I was, however, edible, and I was just I would
have did this sober. But it was this lady, little
lady walked up to me or whatever, and she had
had our phone out and I was like, look, man,
I you know, I don't want no pictures something. She
was like, no, do you know where? And she was
trying to get me to ask her see that right,
And I was like, damn, I need to humble myself,

(05:24):
you know, that's the first thing I thought. I was like, Yo,
I'm good. I don't want no pictures. Something she said,
do you know where the baggage claim?

Speaker 2 (05:30):
If you just go down the escalator?

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Was this was this before you was Mexican, after you
became Mexican?

Speaker 2 (05:36):
By no, this was the other day.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Shut up.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
With your Mexican fans. It wasn't a Mexican lady.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
I think she was like Middle Eastern or something. I
just I don't know why that accent was Spanish, but yeah,
it was like an Indian lady.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
And I didn't know. I just thought she was regular black.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
But she walked up and I didn't expect for that
her to sound like that, and she was. She thought
I worked there, and she was asking me where it
was you.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Went from a main character to an extra real But
I don't want no pictures.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
She thought you worked at no Good for you. Good
for you and Hillary Swain, I know, yo, I know,
