top ten.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
This week's top ten listen to Black folk.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
We do a lot of things, but one thing that
we are known for is that when it's trauma, we
try to turn it into humor. But we've got to
understand we still got some trauma. A lot of our parents,
and our parents and our teachers and everybody else inflicted
a lot of trauma in our lives. So this week's
top ten, we're going to talk about the top ten
traumas that shaped us into productive citizens or minace to society.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Yeah, number ten, we all been here.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Mom, if you're watching, you did this, And I want
everybody to know. Getting hit for crying from getting hit
that is just jamn, Like what am I supposed to do?
Then if you don't cry, you still get hit, Like
what am I supposed to do at this moment? Why
would you hit me for crying because I'm crying because
of you?
Speaker 3 (01:08):
I really hate I really hate this one because I
would do more if I didn't cry, then I would
cry loud and it was what you're crying for? And
then one time I snatched a belt, like if you're
gonna hit, if you're gonna hit, you're gonna hit me
for crying, hit me for not crying. I'm gonna just
take the belt, how about that? And then I had
to run away because almost die yo.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Because then you know what, he grabbed the belt and
try to fight.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Me, like.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I was on the end of the belt flapping around
while he was trying to get me the hell off.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
This is literally.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Number nine. Listen.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
We have a lot of trauma, y'all, but we try
to turn it into comedy even though it is still
trauma that we need to deal with. Number nine, the
agony of having to go pick out the weapon that
your parents were going to abuse you with. This was
just crazy, like because you had a throw thought process
going into it, like if I got that, that's light,
but the end of the slipper, like it's snaps, so
it hits you a little harder, Like these are the
(02:08):
things that you break down.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Lifting that switch like like that is that if you like, Okay,
I can't get the small work because she woulna make
me come back in here and get a bigger one.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Get the biggest one, because I'm gonna get my old
butt wook. It's like, it's just a weird space to
be in. Man Like, choose your weapon, like.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
God right, choose your weapon that you're gonna be harmed with.
Nobody wants to do that. Who wants to do that?
I remember I went and I would choose. I would like,
I would like get something that looked like.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
This.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I'd be like, this is is this good? How about
this little tiny one inch piece of of of wood
or about you know? I would choose the smallest thing possible,
and yeah it didn't. It didn't. It didn't save me.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
But I didn't try between her knuckles be like, this
is cool, mama.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Your mama's absolutely about that.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Yeah, she was going.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
She was gonna make sure, like listen, that's what if
that's what you want, if you gotta feel this, So
however you work, let's start practicing.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
She'd be shadow boxing with the little thing in between
the fingers. Mom, you did this.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Number eight childhood trauma not having your parents not be
able to afford like the times or the or the polos,
so you had the chaps or you had to wear
the lugs, and you had to wear the extra boot
cut jeans, so they would go down and cover up
everything else and nobody could see it. Because lord, if
somebody pulled up your pant leg saw that you didn't
have on what you say you would have on, it
(03:39):
was a wrap for your high school career.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
I was very I was very privileged growing up.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
So now it said, my shoes are from Paylets are
we fighting on a site?
Speaker 5 (03:58):
Fighting on a site? That was rule number one. You can't.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
You definitely had to show up the gym a couple
of times with the shacks on your feet.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Right right from.
Speaker 8 (04:13):
It says beating your kids is the whitest thing you
can do.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Isaiah wants to start a fight, and I appreciate.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
The whitest.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
That doesn't make sense to me.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
It doesn't make sense. I love it.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I want to be white people.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Corporal punishment is a holdover from my supremacy. Absolutely one.
Corporal punishment. Let me put let me put this up
should have been left on the plantation.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Amen, everything overlooking at you, be like we're about to
get into it now.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
The table got.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Me moving some stuff.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Not have any children?
Speaker 5 (04:52):
No why your answer is what your answer is?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Absolutely, But the other thing is to I was a child.
So it's not like I didn't live through be.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Yeah, I get it, I get it. I would have
loved to see how you would a parent. I would
have loved to see how you're a parent if you
if you have kids.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
So I will say this. I remember when my niece
first talked back to me. I wanted to smack her
in her in her face, and I was like, see
hold over from white supremacy, Hi boo, why.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Are you deserved?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
It's why I see it was saying you can't woo.
That's hard for me. But yes, I always say to
folks when people say, oh, you didn't have children, I'm like, yep,
but I was a child and so were you. And
did you like getting beat?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
No?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
It wasn't fun.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
It definitely, it definitely helped me out.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
It's to me, the fear of not the fear of
getting whooped kept me out of a lot of situations.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I still don't do stuff now because I think my
mom might whoop my ass. I'm like, you know what,
I don't even know if I'm like, yeah, my mom might.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Beat me Like that so funny because everything that I
got whooped for I absolutely do as an adult on
purpose to break myself out of the fear of being
punished for the thing that I wanted to do, like
talk a lot like I was. I was always in
trouble for talking, so I talk even more now. I
was always in trouble for I'm a bit of I'm
(06:14):
a bit of a petty strategist, so I petty strategize
around people all the time. But it's cathartic because you know,
I would get in trouble for it.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
So I think the best thing we can understand from
that is speach kids.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Number I need Isaiah on the show because I can't
take every week.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Number seven. This one look school used to get school.
You got a lot of trauma coming from school too, man,
good thing. I was never this person number seven having
to read aloud in school.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
A lot of people, a lot of.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
People won't read now because they think they gotta read
up loud. They used to put them on the spot
and reading. Mary had a little lamb and I don't
know what the hell they started reading.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
But it wasn't that.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Yeah, yo, I will say this yo, because I stuttered.
I stuttered so like people. People made fun of me,
you know, stuttering, But reading time.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
That's the thing.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
When I read, I never stuttered.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
So when reading time came, I was like, oh oh oh.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
It's me Me.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I want to me, I want to read.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
And if I was next to somebody that I know
wasn't a reader, me double me, I want to read
because I know the person next to.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Me ain't gonna read.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Yes, this guy was michele A. He just had the
little He had this squeaky voice and then he starts singing.
He got like that's not the same, but he just came,
what is going on?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
I agree? I agree with my keys. I never had
any problems reading out loud.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Never.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I loved reading out loud. I wanted to read, even
when even when I pronounced the words wrong, like I
would very confidently read the whore divorce on the at
the party were delittiful, like I would just read like
I would read like I do what I was saying.
(08:17):
So I loved reading even though I was definitely pronouncing
words wrong. But it both of my confidence. I wasn't
the term.
Speaker 8 (08:25):
Yeah let me questions says. I used to make fun
of people who couldn't read.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Damn, I got a story about this. I got a
story about this, and and my brother. I'm gonna get
him on here one day so we could tell the story.
But we got kicked out of Bible club for laughing
at the girl who couldn't read in the Bible club.
So we probably ruined her her whole confidence and her religion,
(08:50):
like we probably ruined all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Like Okay, sound it out, sound it out, but I'd
be saund it out wrong because whore divorce is not
how you say that, but I'd be sounded uh sounded out,
I mean, but sounded. I always didn't work, but I
would try and i'd be helping. Y'all are not nice
now now my grease smash Time says, especially a bully
(09:18):
who couldn't read, I'm absolutely making fun of that person.
Speaker 8 (09:24):
Same with what Brittany said, I used to shine in Sundays.
Speaker 6 (09:27):
Yes, that was the time that Yeah, yeah, yeah, Hebrew
is red.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Murray head a little how many.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I don't know these people at all.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I'm sorry number six. I got enough time to get
the number six real quick. Yoh wow. Number six. This
is for my two parent household kids growing up.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Listen, getting in trouble from your mom and once your
dad got home, she told me the whole story, and
all your whole punishment started right over again.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It was fresh.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
You was upstairs sleep, You didn't already got over you
got over everything, your pop coming.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
So you did what.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
It's a rat, Yo, My mom, I felt like she
knew when my dad would come home, right, so she'll
start like down here and then like you'll hear the
door open up and show all of a sudden turn
it up. And then and he's coming home to her yelling,
and now he's like, what's going on? And I'm like, yo,
(10:47):
you knew what you were doing. You knew he comes
home at five thirty. Why could we have this conversation
at four forty six?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Because he was coming here. That's why you couldn't have
a conversation then. And she need to back up. She
actually knew where her backup would arrive. Amen, the cavalry
was coming, and she knew it was just bad enough
that she needed a cavalry.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
She knew, oh man, you just got done chilling. We
just got done chilling, like I didn't got and got
over my whooping and everything. And now here he comes
like he's fresh, angry, like I'm not even mad about
this no more dad, like I apologized.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Really said she'd be in her room when Marcus is
carrying on and be like I'll be in my room
like this again.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Yeah, ladies and gentlemen. That was That was the first five.
Speaker 1 (11:45):

be right back after these messages and this music. It
is the Morning Experience, Yo, welcome back to the Morning Experience.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Of course, y'all.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It is Wednesday, middle of the week, humpday, and you
know we are in the middle of our top ten,
this week's top ten. We are talking about the top
ten childhood traumas that shaped us into productive citizens or
minister society. Isaiah Perry in the comments, As a child
who had a stutter and speech impediment, I try to
(12:23):
count the number of students in my row and preread
my paragraph, only to be terrified when a teacher would
start popcorn reading choose me out of order.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
You was going to great lengths to me, like.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
You know I'm gonna get this, I'm gonna be ready.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
That is comparatible comparable to what we call a.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Parlay right now, because if you think you got to
go in and something just come out of nowhere and
mess your whole parlay.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
His paragraph.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
You already read this. I read this three times A
number five and number five more childhood trauma. Childhood trauma
with your cousins having to decide who was going to
ask the parents if your cousin could stay to.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Night, because you have to add because she'll say yes
if you ask me bull because she was gonna say
no regardless.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
I was gonna say, if you good, that's a setup
all the way through because she was gonna say no.
So they would always send me because I would at
least argue a little bit and they would feel validated
in their ass. Like my first cousin, she would go
and she'd be like, can't such and such before she
can get can't such and such spend the night? They'd
be like, and I told you not to ask again.
I go out there and I'd be like, first of all,
(13:43):
I just want to say, don't yell like I would start,
you know there, because I'd be a little hype, and
they're like, first of all, little girl. I was like, well,
I just want to know these are the reasons before
I say who it is they should spend the night.
And they're like, now we're having now we're in now,
we're in a parliamentary procedure. What is happening? And then
I would say that they.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Didn't get yelled that, so I didn't get yelled at.
Like y'all could go ahead know her answer about to be.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
The absolutely not after I went through my whole entire process.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
But it would be like a friend, like you know
what I'm saying, like a man, ask your mommy. I'm like,
you want to say, you asked, I already know what
there is to go be.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
She might say, yes, if you asked, it ain't gonna
be for.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
Me because I already told you. He wasn't saying tonight.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
And then you're still get in trouble. Now get down
here now, UK. You told that boy to come out
here and ask, and I told him see childhood. I'm
telling y'all, we all live the same life. I'm trying
to tell.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Y'all, well, I don't like I don't like this game.
Speaker 8 (14:43):

Speaker 3 (15:50):
I know because I was that. I was always definitely ill,
so I don't even know, like I was always definitely ill,
so like I couldn't. I could. The TV would be on,
but it wouldn't matter because I was dying.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
You in the fridge, like, oh, you could get up
out of the bed and get something to eat, but you.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Can't go to school.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
I bet you them all. I bet.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Every time we got the flu shot, like you know,
you have to get the flu shot for school, and
I get the three days and they were like, why
are you sick? I'm like, you guys gave me a
flu shot.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Y'all, y'all introduced me to the virus.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
You're trying to kill me and asking me when I
am sick. I can't even understand.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Number three, Listen, if if, if your parents are struggling,
you know that you had a school outfit in school shoes,
and you had a home outfit, and you always you
would get in trouble for going outside with your school
shoes on. You would get damn they're assassinated for going
(17:00):
outside with your school outfit on.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Him. Please don't get a grass stain on your school pants.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
Especially in September when they're brand new.
Speaker 5 (17:09):
You got school clothes and you got play clothes.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Everybody, everybody know the difference school clothes.
Speaker 5 (17:17):
Did I do it to Marquie is right now? I'm like,
do you go outside and play with your school clothes?
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:25):
Yeah, yeah, I'm I'm a stickler about that.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
We we have a comment from Gariel.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
He says you ever had a crazy uncle that stayed
in a room in your grandma's house and and then
continue to say, I hated when my my mother called called.
Speaker 8 (17:41):
Me upstairs just to get the remote control on the dresser.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Trauma. Those are ye living the same life. Unfortunately. I
just want to say, though I did not have play clothes.
My mother did not expect you to come home from
school and play. She expects you to come home and
do your homework. So play was out of order. You
need to come inside, do you homework, play very quietly
(18:06):
on the living room floor, and then go to bed.
I was traumatized. I didn't have any play clothes. But
I'll be playing though. Let'll be playing though.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Wow, listen was it Darrell Del They let us rite
into number two because number two is getting called from
outside why you were playing? And they'd be like, hey,
hend me that remote over there.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I was forty five minutes away by bike, and I
would still get called in for a remote or something
off the dresser, or something out the freezer, or something
out the fridge. Get a drink out the fridge. I
was two hours away walking and somehow I would have
to run back home and get that. Get that.
Speaker 5 (18:45):
How did they get in contact with you?
Speaker 3 (18:47):
It's a homing pitch. It's a homing device. You hear
your mother's boys from forty five miles away. It doesn't matter,
It doesn't matter where you are.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
Angry different, that's different. Now. My dad had a whistle.
My dad would it was when he was in my life.
My dad had a whistle that.
Speaker 7 (19:04):
He would do really really loud, like you can hear him,
like down the street and I would just come running
and he'd be like, Hey, what did you did?
Speaker 5 (19:12):
You leave them spries right there? Put them fries.
Speaker 8 (19:14):
I'm like, bro, the whole time you could have put
it that.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
That's the stuff to be killing me.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
That's the stuff that's real trauma, that's real. Because now
you get mad when they call you.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
Now what we already talked about what work get you
in trouble?
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Yeah, called your mom and dad all out. They name
under your breath. But number one and this is this
has been going on forever. If you watch Eddie Bmurphy
raw at the beginning, you know that it always happened
when your parents had company over and they was all
(19:52):
drunk and they woke you up or called you downstairs
from playing the game to do the new dance and
you had to sit there and I didn't did the
butterfly plenty of time times.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
To try to show off for y'all company.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Now, no, we didn't have this because my parents, they
were much smarter than us. They had a kid's town
show in the beginning where they would laugh at us
and then they send our asses off so they could
drink very different. They would definitely send us off the
new dances, we do, the whole things, but they would
make it a town show, so we did not interrupt
them for the rest of the night.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
See, I wasn't talented, so so like the other kids
had to do it, and like I just watched and
it looked painful for them, but I never I never
experienced it.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
I was always expectator. Go ahead, y'all.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
He was a stage here, he needs some metric pillows.
My keys, go get the pillows.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
Plantation stuff, you know, dance for us that that plantation. Yeah, days,
a little timid dance like that. That's the plantation right there.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I am trying to tell y'all, this is trauma. This
is trauma. This is real life traumpa. We laugh and joke,
but these a real life issues that we deal with
for the rest of our lives. Because our parents tried
to ruin us.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
It made we live a lot of memories that I
don't appreciate. Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (21:24):

everybody to know. Getting hit for crying from getting hit
that is just jamn, Like what am I supposed to do?
Then if you don't cry, you still get hit, Like
what am I supposed to do at this moment? Why
would you hit me for crying because I'm crying because
of you?
Speaker 3 (01:08):
I really hate I really hate this one because I
would do more if I didn't cry, then I would
cry loud and it was what you're crying for? And
then one time I snatched a belt, like if you're
gonna hit, if you're gonna hit, you're gonna hit me
for crying, hit me for not crying. I'm gonna just
take the belt, how about that? And then I had
to run away because almost die yo.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Because then you know what, he grabbed the belt and
try to fight.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Me, like.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I was on the end of the belt flapping around
while he was trying to get me the hell off.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
This is literally.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Number nine. Listen.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
We have a lot of trauma, y'all, but we try
to turn it into comedy even though it is still
trauma that we need to deal with. Number nine, the
agony of having to go pick out the weapon that
your parents were going to abuse you with. This was
just crazy, like because you had a throw thought process
going into it, like if I got that, that's light,
but the end of the slipper, like it's snaps, so
it hits you a little harder, Like these are the
(02:08):
things that you break down.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Lifting that switch like like that is that if you like, Okay,
I can't get the small work because she woulna make
me come back in here and get a bigger one.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Get the biggest one, because I'm gonna get my old
butt wook. It's like, it's just a weird space to
be in. Man Like, choose your weapon, like.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
God right, choose your weapon that you're gonna be harmed with.
Nobody wants to do that. Who wants to do that?
I remember I went and I would choose. I would like,
I would like get something that looked like.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
This.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I'd be like, this is is this good? How about
this little tiny one inch piece of of of wood
or about you know? I would choose the smallest thing possible,
and yeah it didn't. It didn't. It didn't save me.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
But I didn't try between her knuckles be like, this
is cool, mama.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Your mama's absolutely about that.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Yeah, she was going.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
She was gonna make sure, like listen, that's what if
that's what you want, if you gotta feel this, So
however you work, let's start practicing.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
She'd be shadow boxing with the little thing in between
the fingers. Mom, you did this.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Number eight childhood trauma not having your parents not be
able to afford like the times or the or the polos,
so you had the chaps or you had to wear
the lugs, and you had to wear the extra boot
cut jeans, so they would go down and cover up
everything else and nobody could see it. Because lord, if
somebody pulled up your pant leg saw that you didn't
have on what you say you would have on, it
(03:39):
was a wrap for your high school career.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
I was very I was very privileged growing up.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
So now it said, my shoes are from Paylets are
we fighting on a site?
Speaker 5 (03:58):
Fighting on a site? That was rule number one. You can't.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
You definitely had to show up the gym a couple
of times with the shacks on your feet.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Right right from.
Speaker 8 (04:13):
It says beating your kids is the whitest thing you
can do.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Isaiah wants to start a fight, and I appreciate.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
The whitest.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
That doesn't make sense to me.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
It doesn't make sense. I love it.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
I want to be white people.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Corporal punishment is a holdover from my supremacy. Absolutely one.
Corporal punishment. Let me put let me put this up
should have been left on the plantation.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Amen, everything overlooking at you, be like we're about to
get into it now.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
The table got.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Me moving some stuff.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Not have any children?
Speaker 5 (04:52):
No why your answer is what your answer is?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Absolutely, But the other thing is to I was a child.
So it's not like I didn't live through be.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Yeah, I get it, I get it. I would have
loved to see how you would a parent. I would
have loved to see how you're a parent if you
if you have kids.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
So I will say this. I remember when my niece
first talked back to me. I wanted to smack her
in her in her face, and I was like, see
hold over from white supremacy, Hi boo, why.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Are you deserved?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
It's why I see it was saying you can't woo.
That's hard for me. But yes, I always say to
folks when people say, oh, you didn't have children, I'm like, yep,
but I was a child and so were you. And
did you like getting beat?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
No?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
It wasn't fun.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
It definitely, it definitely helped me out.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
It's to me, the fear of not the fear of
getting whooped kept me out of a lot of situations.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I still don't do stuff now because I think my
mom might whoop my ass. I'm like, you know what,
I don't even know if I'm like, yeah, my mom might.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Beat me Like that so funny because everything that I
got whooped for I absolutely do as an adult on
purpose to break myself out of the fear of being
punished for the thing that I wanted to do, like
talk a lot like I was. I was always in
trouble for talking, so I talk even more now. I
was always in trouble for I'm a bit of I'm
(06:14):
a bit of a petty strategist, so I petty strategize
around people all the time. But it's cathartic because you know,
I would get in trouble for it.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
So I think the best thing we can understand from
that is speach kids.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Number I need Isaiah on the show because I can't
take every week.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Number seven. This one look school used to get school.
You got a lot of trauma coming from school too, man,
good thing. I was never this person number seven having
to read aloud in school.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
A lot of people, a lot of.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
People won't read now because they think they gotta read
up loud. They used to put them on the spot
and reading. Mary had a little lamb and I don't
know what the hell they started reading.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
But it wasn't that.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Yeah, yo, I will say this yo, because I stuttered.
I stuttered so like people. People made fun of me,
you know, stuttering, But reading time.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
That's the thing.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
When I read, I never stuttered.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
So when reading time came, I was like, oh oh oh.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
It's me Me.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I want to me, I want to read.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
And if I was next to somebody that I know
wasn't a reader, me double me, I want to read
because I know the person next to.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Me ain't gonna read.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Yes, this guy was michele A. He just had the
little He had this squeaky voice and then he starts singing.
He got like that's not the same, but he just came,
what is going on?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
I agree? I agree with my keys. I never had
any problems reading out loud.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Never.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I loved reading out loud. I wanted to read, even
when even when I pronounced the words wrong, like I
would very confidently read the whore divorce on the at
the party were delittiful, like I would just read like
I would read like I do what I was saying.
(08:17):
So I loved reading even though I was definitely pronouncing
words wrong. But it both of my confidence. I wasn't
the term.
Speaker 8 (08:25):
Yeah let me questions says. I used to make fun
of people who couldn't read.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Damn, I got a story about this. I got a
story about this, and and my brother. I'm gonna get
him on here one day so we could tell the story.
But we got kicked out of Bible club for laughing
at the girl who couldn't read in the Bible club.
So we probably ruined her her whole confidence and her religion,
(08:50):
like we probably ruined all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Like Okay, sound it out, sound it out, but I'd
be saund it out wrong because whore divorce is not
how you say that, but I'd be sounded uh sounded out,
I mean, but sounded. I always didn't work, but I
would try and i'd be helping. Y'all are not nice
now now my grease smash Time says, especially a bully
(09:18):
who couldn't read, I'm absolutely making fun of that person.
Speaker 8 (09:24):
Same with what Brittany said, I used to shine in Sundays.
Speaker 6 (09:27):
Yes, that was the time that Yeah, yeah, yeah, Hebrew
is red.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Murray head a little how many.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I don't know these people at all.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I'm sorry number six. I got enough time to get
the number six real quick. Yoh wow. Number six. This
is for my two parent household kids growing up.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Listen, getting in trouble from your mom and once your
dad got home, she told me the whole story, and
all your whole punishment started right over again.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It was fresh.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
You was upstairs sleep, You didn't already got over you
got over everything, your pop coming.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
So you did what.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
It's a rat, Yo, My mom, I felt like she
knew when my dad would come home, right, so she'll
start like down here and then like you'll hear the
door open up and show all of a sudden turn
it up. And then and he's coming home to her yelling,
and now he's like, what's going on? And I'm like, yo,
(10:47):
you knew what you were doing. You knew he comes
home at five thirty. Why could we have this conversation
at four forty six?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Because he was coming here. That's why you couldn't have
a conversation then. And she need to back up. She
actually knew where her backup would arrive. Amen, the cavalry
was coming, and she knew it was just bad enough
that she needed a cavalry.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
She knew, oh man, you just got done chilling. We
just got done chilling, like I didn't got and got
over my whooping and everything. And now here he comes
like he's fresh, angry, like I'm not even mad about
this no more dad, like I apologized.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Really said she'd be in her room when Marcus is
carrying on and be like I'll be in my room
like this again.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Yeah, ladies and gentlemen. That was That was the first five.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
That was the first five of this week's We would
be right back after these messages and this music. It
is the Morning Experience, Yo, welcome back to the Morning Experience.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Of course, y'all.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It is Wednesday, middle of the week, humpday, and you
know we are in the middle of our top ten,
this week's top ten. We are talking about the top
ten childhood traumas that shaped us into productive citizens or
minister society. Isaiah Perry in the comments, As a child
who had a stutter and speech impediment, I try to
(12:23):
count the number of students in my row and preread
my paragraph, only to be terrified when a teacher would
start popcorn reading choose me out of order.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
You was going to great lengths to me, like.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
You know I'm gonna get this, I'm gonna be ready.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
That is comparatible comparable to what we call a.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Parlay right now, because if you think you got to
go in and something just come out of nowhere and
mess your whole parlay.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
His paragraph.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
You already read this. I read this three times A
number five and number five more childhood trauma. Childhood trauma
with your cousins having to decide who was going to
ask the parents if your cousin could stay to.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Night, because you have to add because she'll say yes
if you ask me bull because she was gonna say
no regardless.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
I was gonna say, if you good, that's a setup
all the way through because she was gonna say no.
So they would always send me because I would at
least argue a little bit and they would feel validated
in their ass. Like my first cousin, she would go
and she'd be like, can't such and such before she
can get can't such and such spend the night? They'd
be like, and I told you not to ask again.
I go out there and I'd be like, first of all,
(13:43):
I just want to say, don't yell like I would start,
you know there, because I'd be a little hype, and
they're like, first of all, little girl. I was like, well,
I just want to know these are the reasons before
I say who it is they should spend the night.
And they're like, now we're having now we're in now,
we're in a parliamentary procedure. What is happening? And then
I would say that they.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Didn't get yelled that, so I didn't get yelled at.
Like y'all could go ahead know her answer about to be.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
The absolutely not after I went through my whole entire process.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
But it would be like a friend, like you know
what I'm saying, like a man, ask your mommy. I'm like,
you want to say, you asked, I already know what
there is to go be.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
She might say, yes, if you asked, it ain't gonna
be for.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
Me because I already told you. He wasn't saying tonight.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
And then you're still get in trouble. Now get down
here now, UK. You told that boy to come out
here and ask, and I told him see childhood. I'm
telling y'all, we all live the same life. I'm trying
to tell.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Y'all, well, I don't like I don't like this game.
Speaker 8 (14:43):
My cousin Terrell, we sent him.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
Nobody ever said no, she was the baby and nobody
and then they called on you want to send Sarel
down here?
Speaker 8 (14:52):
Yes, you were down there.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Terrell got the highest win rate everybody.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Still today still today we were in our big age
now and he gets away.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
With you know, and gets all the babysitting of.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Course, very rude.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Number four. Number four is again I'm telling y'all we
live the same life.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
So please let me know if this happened to you
being told you're not sick because you want to watch
TV or you want to get up and get something
to eat, So now you ain't sick, no damn more.
I gotta survive, like I'm what you mean, I'm not
sick no more because I'm watching TV.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
What am I supposed to be doing right now?
Speaker 7 (15:40):
Yo?
Speaker 8 (15:41):
I definitely held him last. I'm definitely like because like, yo,
I'm sick.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
I know because I was that. I was always definitely ill,
so I don't even know, like I was always definitely ill,
so like I couldn't. I could. The TV would be on,
but it wouldn't matter because I was dying.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
You in the fridge, like, oh, you could get up
out of the bed and get something to eat, but you.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Can't go to school.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
I bet you them all. I bet.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Every time we got the flu shot, like you know,
you have to get the flu shot for school, and
I get the three days and they were like, why
are you sick? I'm like, you guys gave me a
flu shot.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Y'all, y'all introduced me to the virus.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
You're trying to kill me and asking me when I
am sick. I can't even understand.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Number three, Listen, if if, if your parents are struggling,
you know that you had a school outfit in school shoes,
and you had a home outfit, and you always you
would get in trouble for going outside with your school
shoes on. You would get damn they're assassinated for going
(17:00):
outside with your school outfit on.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Him. Please don't get a grass stain on your school pants.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
Especially in September when they're brand new.
Speaker 5 (17:09):
You got school clothes and you got play clothes.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Everybody, everybody know the difference school clothes.
Speaker 5 (17:17):
Did I do it to Marquie is right now? I'm like,
do you go outside and play with your school clothes?
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:25):
Yeah, yeah, I'm I'm a stickler about that.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
We we have a comment from Gariel.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
He says you ever had a crazy uncle that stayed
in a room in your grandma's house and and then
continue to say, I hated when my my mother called called.
Speaker 8 (17:41):
Me upstairs just to get the remote control on the dresser.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Trauma. Those are ye living the same life. Unfortunately. I
just want to say, though I did not have play clothes.
My mother did not expect you to come home from
school and play. She expects you to come home and
do your homework. So play was out of order. You
need to come inside, do you homework, play very quietly
(18:06):
on the living room floor, and then go to bed.
I was traumatized. I didn't have any play clothes. But
I'll be playing though. Let'll be playing though.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Wow, listen was it Darrell Del They let us rite
into number two because number two is getting called from
outside why you were playing? And they'd be like, hey,
hend me that remote over there.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I was forty five minutes away by bike, and I
would still get called in for a remote or something
off the dresser, or something out the freezer, or something
out the fridge. Get a drink out the fridge. I
was two hours away walking and somehow I would have
to run back home and get that. Get that.
Speaker 5 (18:45):
How did they get in contact with you?
Speaker 3 (18:47):
It's a homing pitch. It's a homing device. You hear
your mother's boys from forty five miles away. It doesn't matter,
It doesn't matter where you are.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
Angry different, that's different. Now. My dad had a whistle.
My dad would it was when he was in my life.
My dad had a whistle that.
Speaker 7 (19:04):
He would do really really loud, like you can hear him,
like down the street and I would just come running
and he'd be like, Hey, what did you did?
Speaker 5 (19:12):
You leave them spries right there? Put them fries.
Speaker 8 (19:14):
I'm like, bro, the whole time you could have put
it that.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
That's the stuff to be killing me.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
That's the stuff that's real trauma, that's real. Because now
you get mad when they call you.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
Now what we already talked about what work get you
in trouble?
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Yeah, called your mom and dad all out. They name
under your breath. But number one and this is this
has been going on forever. If you watch Eddie Bmurphy
raw at the beginning, you know that it always happened
when your parents had company over and they was all
(19:52):
drunk and they woke you up or called you downstairs
from playing the game to do the new dance and
you had to sit there and I didn't did the
butterfly plenty of time times.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
To try to show off for y'all company.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Now, no, we didn't have this because my parents, they
were much smarter than us. They had a kid's town
show in the beginning where they would laugh at us
and then they send our asses off so they could
drink very different. They would definitely send us off the
new dances, we do, the whole things, but they would
make it a town show, so we did not interrupt
them for the rest of the night.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
See, I wasn't talented, so so like the other kids
had to do it, and like I just watched and
it looked painful for them, but I never I never
experienced it.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
I was always expectator. Go ahead, y'all.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
He was a stage here, he needs some metric pillows.
My keys, go get the pillows.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
Plantation stuff, you know, dance for us that that plantation. Yeah, days,
a little timid dance like that. That's the plantation right there.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I am trying to tell y'all, this is trauma. This
is trauma. This is real life traumpa. We laugh and joke,
but these a real life issues that we deal with
for the rest of our lives. Because our parents tried
to ruin us.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
It made we live a lot of memories that I
don't appreciate. Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
You gotta get it out. This is your therapy. Get
it out, ladies, gentlemen. That was this week's top ten.
