(02:14):
five w GCT size number one forhip Hop arn being announced. Time to
take a look at your daily headlines. Senator Dick Durbin, today we'll call
on renew efforts to keep United StatesPostal Service mail carriers safe. Now,
recently a past couple of months,a number of them have been being robbed
on their routes, so the concernsby the postal workers about the safety have

(02:38):
been increasing. Has been a recentrise in armed robberies against letter carriers,
with hundreds of incidents happening in thelast couple of years. Now. Last
year, Senator Durban urged postal officersto address the letter carrier safety, but
not much has changed, and inFebruary of this year, he even met
with the National Association of Letter Carriersto explore ways to improve safety, and

(03:00):
many of the carriers even spoke upabout the fear of going to work and
getting robbed. So what he plansto do is as officials with the Department
of Justice and the United States PostalService to take action and protect these work
they have to. Man, I'mhappy to Dicks get into the bottom of
it. Yeah. Absolutely, theofficers have like security guards when they're going
around for a while. Yes,and we didn't have nobody. We just

(03:23):
had mace and a big ass stickthe dog they give you me, Yeah
for the dogs. Though, here'sthe if I need math do the job,
I can't do the job. Ifeel, you know that one like
if I got to have something selfdefense, just a case. Yeah,
yeah, So I think like it'smace nine and a brownbow nighte. Here's

(03:45):
the mail and here's the man.I think guys be like stealing credit cards
or maybe like, yeah, checksone because I was thinking mail workers probably
don't even carry cash. Dude,No they don't. But but you know
in the mail like checks to comeup, card cray. Can you know
you get your hands on a bankcard or something? I don't. I
don't see the purpose in robbing aletter carrier, But like I say,

(04:06):
the people who do it obviously knowwhat they're trying to get from said letter
carriers. But like you said,Dick Durban is gonna get to the bottom
problem. He'll penetrate what's going onand and make it up, make it
worth for the man, worth foreverybody's while shout out to Dick Durban.

you need to know what sports.I'm just here so I won't get fired
les locker room. I want tosupper all right. Over the weekend,
huge fight took place Javanta, TankDavis and Ryan Garcia was a matchup that
everybody was looking forward to, andthey did not disappoint if you were a

(04:49):
Tank fan. In the seventh round, he hit Ryan Garcia with a nasty
body shot and the boy just shutdown. He said, okay, that
that that hurt had enough. I'vehad enough, mamma. Vant to David
stays unbeating at twenty nine and ohnext, I either want to see him
fight Shakoor Stevenson or Haney. Thatthat for me, other than Bud Croft,

(05:11):
Terns Crawford and Url Spence. That'sthe only other fight. I want
to see him boxing Javan to takeon I say Shako Stevenson before it's take
a goat. Now she's getting there. Now that he's getting that because it
ran through everybody in the division.That's right, So Loman Chenko, Hany
and Shakoor Stevenson. Yeah. CanI just say I wasn't too aware of

(05:32):
this fight and I saw everybody talkingabout take so I'm thinking of the RB
start used to know Javan to Davisbecause he used to day Harry, but
he on dar war so before he'sour brother to me. If he was
still dating Ari that I would havebeen more invested, but he broke up
and lost his pop culture icon.Talk gonna turn it on here when we

What now of that trying? Let'sgo coming up Tommy from Power Book for

(20:00):
us Aka, Joseph Sakara. We'llbe in the building at eight o'clock and
coming up in Leon's goofy ass personof the day, Rice, really really
be Rice, You're gonna hold theflight here for some damn Rice. Shut
up? Yeah, GCI chat onceso once so goofy people. All right,
this that time of the day toeverybody loves. One person's gonna be

(20:22):
absolutely pissed. It's Leon's goofy askperson of the dead war and listen,
let me tell you something. Comeon, I love flying the right brothers
back in the day when they inventedthe airplane, they did a service to
everybody. But you know what Ihate sometimes I hate sometimes I hate the
employees of the airline. Okay twoin particular gate agents, yes, and
flight attendants because they have the powerto ruin your trip and make your trip

(20:45):
up a nine pleasant one. Right. You know Southwest, you know you
get a through you know, onethrough fifteen. You're doing big things.
So you know, imagine being onthe Southwest Airline plan. Let's say you
on your way to can't do Idon't know, somebody you know probably came
on. They was running late andthey had brought some little fried rice and

(21:06):
airport restaurant. As they got on, they spilled a little bit of the
rice and got made it to theirchair. Well, you know, part
of you being working for the airline, that's kind of your job to clean
that up. When make mess,like when babies make mess, somebody has
to come clean that up. It'snot up, you know, the passenger's
responsibility. Well, this flight attendantrefused to allow the pilot to take off

(21:30):
until someone cleaned up the mess.She went up and down the aisle and
asked each passenger one by one whospilled fried rice. After no one confessed
to the spill, the flight appendedthen got on the loudspeaker, reiterating the
passengers that they were not leaving untilthe rice is cleaned up. Now.
The flight attendant eventually cleaned up themess, but apparently told customers nobody was

(21:52):
raised right, and she's disappointed inall that. She's a woman. I
don't know who it was. Idon't care, ma'am. Now was your
job do it? I think mymama was to fly to this. She
would have Mason held up the flightman. We're trying to get the can
cooled. You try to fact whenyou take off the right's gonna slide all
the way to the back. Anyway, they go ahead and hit the back

(22:15):
ball. Ye, sweep it upright there. Okay, I think that.
See, the thing was flight attendance. It's unfortunate because everybody's not pleasant.
You have to be very pleasant andnice. Oh my god, like
you might might not like that.That is what she should have and they,
like them gate agents, you'd belike, look, i'm here,
the door is still over pack.I can't let you on you and mething
and if you do that, okay, we'll just put you on a no

(22:37):
flight list. Yeah, that's realeasy for them to do. So to
that lady who held that flight upto them people, you know what I'm
saying, Even though the person whospilled the right should have probably said,
hey, man, my bad,I just so just pick it up.
I'm already here in my own now. Sent your goo fast down seven five

(23:00):
be GC. That's bull said,bad ass. Wipe me down. Man,
that's just bad ass, because I'myes, sir, we got coming
up now. Coming up next,we're gonna talk about Tory Lanes. He
is an innocent man. We hereremember run the first time since being convicted
of the Mega Stallion shooting that's comingup next. Here's shirt by Sis.

(23:30):
As you know, Tory Lanes hasbeen convicted of the shooting of Mega Stallian
has been in jail ever since.But he took to social media. Um,
I want to say Instagram actually andmade a plea. And his statement
is to get a new trial.And it's a very long um plea that
he made. But I'm sorry hedoes say today, I take a stance
as an innocent black man wrongfully convictedof a crime I did not commit.

(23:56):
Um, I guess I'm not mad. I well, you got to do
you know what I'm saying, likeyou don't do in jail, besides the
fight to get out of jail.So I think I don't mind this.
One would say, just admit thatyou shot her, but it's a lie.
He has to never admit. He'snever gonna admit it. Go Jesse.
Someone let on the well, Zachsap. We don't have proof.

(24:19):
There's no there's no proof. There'sblending proof negative forty subway sich. Well,
since vortex, what do you thinkabout that? Trump supporters, I
mean, little humble jail is humbling. Let's just sit behind the bars,
your attitude change a lot. Iguess my issue is, dude, Tori,

(24:42):
you did not speak during the trial, Like I don't understand why he
didn't tell his side of the story. It looked like he was about to
get off, but he did not. I'll go at all due to you
don't even have to be in thissituation. After it happened, and she
covered for you, you could havebeen like, all right, that just

(25:02):
let it go away. But youwant to talk about it. I got
one here, I got one betterbefore that. He was in the pool
with two three, three half nakedbeautiful, famous rich women. God,
there should have been only one pistol, while only half. I do want

(25:29):
to give you a little bit morethan things that he said. He said
Actually, on May eighth, theday after my birthday, his lawyers would
be arguing emotion for a new trial. Not only does he owe this to
himself to fight for his freedom,but I owe it to my six year
old child, my family, myfans, and most importantly, the hundreds
of thousands of black and Hispanic minoritiesthat cannot adequately fight for themselves. Now

(25:53):
you lost me, Now I getI do get the part by the side
I got, I got everything abouta child, but now don't bring in
I'm fighting for civil rights leader.I can't tell you that I liked Tory
Lanes a lot before the situation,because he had a situation years ago where
he had a music video and thedirector swapped out a dark skinned girl for

(26:17):
a light skinned woman as the lead, and Tory stopped the filming and he
was like, no, y'all dothis all the time. I want her
to be the leader of this video. And I respect to him so much.
And I literally was a Tory Lanesmany. He pulled out a gun
when he did that. He's like, switch him out now, I'm just
playing Lee. I don't laugh becausethey got swiped him out now. O

(26:40):
damn, that's it. That's it. I apologize to Chicago. Follow me
on Instagram, kend g Media onseven five WUT of shows number one for
hip popping on and B It's thebest day. I'm on the Seawan Chicago
myself. That's allegedly on Rogers.The Beautiful Kendrick G And we got our
brother from another mother and the buildingmanness. He's done it all yeah,

(27:02):
and continues to do more. Joseph'saccords and the building. Man. Good
to be back in the shot.So listen, I really know you,
Joseph, but there are people I'mquite sure to just call you Timmy from
Power. Does that bother you,Tommy, No, I'm just I just
say call me, Tommy, callme. Joseph called me, Joe.
Just call me, and they do. Man, and Chicago stands up.

(27:22):
I get so much love when Icome back home, So I'm really grateful
to be here every time. Ithink if people just called you Timmy,
they would be cheapening your brand,man, because I've seen so many movies
that you've been in, and Ilove the fact that, like me seeing
you as Tommy is like, damn, I never saw him do that because
you know Shutter Island, Intruder.Oh yeah, Like I watched different movies
with you in it. How doyou do that? Man? How do

(27:44):
you work on that range? Andsometimes because Tommy could be a character that
you could be every day, likeyou literally have to not go crazy.
I think that's one of the appealsof the Tommy characters that he's a character
that we all kind of want tobe. You know, he goes from
zero to sixty, He speaks hismind. He keeps it a hundred every
second of the day. But likethe Reverend Jackson said when we were the
South Shore of Cultural Center, yeah, he said, uh, because I

(28:07):
start Senior started a lot of things, but I like timings. So okay,
well, let's talk about the character. Now. You were in a
movie called Fear that you actually produced, like you, yes, are more
than just acting. You put yourmoney behind it. You were sitting by
this film that I believe you shotwith. I gotta show love to Diane
Taylor, who said, listen,Diane, Diane, here's your shout out.
I love you back. Dian Taylor, who has done so many movies.

(28:30):
Yeah, shot this in COVID.I saw a Fear tomorrow was gonna
be available in all streaming platforms ondemand. So let's talk about Fear because
that's what we really want to drivepeople to see as soon as well.
You should already seen him Becautram tomorrow. That's easy. That's my pleasure to
talk about Fear. But one ofthe things that you mentioned that I am
an executive producer on this, andwhat an opportunity that Dion Taylor gave me
as an actor to say, hey, not only are you an executive producer

(28:52):
in name? But let's show youhow to do this. Let's have his
partner, Roxane Taylor, who's amazingshe brought up There wasn't even CDC protocols
in place when we started filming this. Dion and Roxanne made them up.
So that's enough of a reason whyI'm proud. But this movie Fear is
scary, but it's scary with themessage. Ninety Nine percent of the time

(29:14):
you see a scary film and you'relike, you're scared of that thing.
When you leave, you don't wantto open that door. You want Freddie
to pop out in your you know, in your dreams or whatever. So
this film is actually a message ofhope at the end, and how do
you tackle your fears. We're dealingwith very real fears. My character Rom
Jennings, his fears fear of fearcommitment and also fear of losing that person
in that commitment, but then alsovery practical fears, fear of drowning.

(29:38):
We got we got going in there, but you have to face your fear.
But what Dion Taylor did amazingly andbrilliantly is that he gave you a
blueprint of how to defeat your fears, and that's through faith, faith and
love. All right, man,Joseph Sakora in the studio, will be
right back with more right here onone or seven five W seven five out
of shows. Number one for hipr and being the best day of morning

(30:00):
show was sitting with my main man, Joseph Sakora, and he's talking Fear,
the new movie that he's in.I definitely got to watch this because
Kendrick's not life scary movies. Sofor her to sit up and watch Fear
has gotta be good because she's ownrecord. She don't do the horror movies.
So I'm gonna check it out.What's harder acting or being producer?
They hidden hand that moves everything,which one is more of a pain and

(30:22):
ass like having to remember the runlines or having to get people in order
when the camera crew ain't you know. Let's I love being part of the
creative process, just like you guysare independent producers of this show in the
sense that you make it happen,You come up with content, you you
build that Ryn listen to what theman is saying, in addition to in
addition to Ryan, who's behind theirpulling the strings, making sure that everything

(30:44):
is technically a row. You're bringingthe creative part of that template to make
sure that it's a finished product.And that's what I like to do as
the producer, not only help withcasting, but also figure out where the
story is going, why it's goingthere. Can we get it even bigger?
Are there more twists and terms thatwe can apply to that. I
started a production company with my brotherAlden called Black Fox, and we deal

(31:07):
with stories. We deal with urbanstories. We don't deal with white stories
or Black stories or Latin stories.We deal with all of that. We
don't deal with rich people or poorpeople. We deal with all of that.
We deal with stories that take placewithin the urban environment, specifically Chicago's
because I want to give jobs toChicago in so in that way, I
enjoy doing the producing when I getto have a creative coat on top of

(31:27):
the production. Yeah, but whatabout the yo, hurry up, we
gotta get this damn scene shot?Thinking about I mean, it's something,
but that's something everybody can relate totoo, because you're like, this is
money. Yeah, Like y'all,what's plan A, What's Plan B,
what's plans C? And Roxanne isreally brilliant at breaking that down. And
we had a budget of a milliondollars. We shot here for a million

(31:48):
dollars. Now more money was putin afterwards. People think a million dollars
is like a lot a million dollars, but it's not a lot of movie.
Not for a lot of movie,because you're paying the cast, you're
paying the crew, you're paying frommarketing. You crafty gotta have good.
Crafty gotta have good. You gottakeep malty A way to a man's heart
a first time in other places,that's true for twenty everybody tell us a

(32:14):
sichor. You know. I wantto talk to you just about your career
in general, because you are aChicago when you represent the city so hard.
That's why I love that you guyshad to power here in Chicago.
But is this ever forever grime?Because there's people listening who just pray to
have an inch of your kind ofcareer one day. Right but before I
feel like you got to me Tommy'syour breakout role. It's true, but

(32:36):
you were, you were doing thisfor a while. Thirty seven years.
I've been in this susiness. I'vebeen in a screen actors skill since nineteen
eighty eight, since I was ayoung it's a little lad um. Yeah,
I've never I guess it's with theTommy character that I that I saw.
Oh wow, I'm recognizable. I'mhaving more success. I can pay
all of my bills. But Icertainly never got into this, and I

(32:58):
wouldn't encourage anybody to necessarily get intothis business that we do for fame.
It's really got to be a passionotherwise it's not you're not serving yourself and
you're not serving the people that you'retrying to get your product out too.
It's like that's a different kind ofthing that's become more popular the older I
get, the more popular just beingfamous it's become. I don't see.
It doesn't appeal to me. Idon't see the benefits. It's not fun

(33:21):
for me. What's fun for meis the creative and the ensemble. All
Right, we gotta play some billswhole that thought. We'll be right back
more with Joseph Sikora right here onone or seventy five one or seventy five
w GC out of Shies, numberone for hip hopping arm be It's the
best day of morning Shore in Chicagoand we're sitting here with Joseph Sakora talking
all things power and this new movieFear. Does it get to a point

(33:45):
where I'm just doing film now becauseI love to do I'm cool. I'm
working with Dion Taylor doing this andbasically, you know, not getting paid,
but reinvesting my money within too thisproduct. And that's a I'm great,
so grateful for that opportunity after everbe grateful for that because it's changing
the trajectory of my career in mylife. But yeah, I am at
the point of being able to pickand choose the projects because when people ask

(34:07):
me, oh, what attracted youto the Timing character, I'm like,
they paid money, but that's itwas the third thing that I tested for
that year, the third television show, and it was the only one that
didn't give me. What my quoteis, they paid you know that if
which it was still a good amountof money, But hey, they're supposed
to do that. What can weget out of this because that's their job

(34:28):
is to spend as little money andget the best product possible. With me,
they achieved that. But I'm gratefulto stars I've I've been a loyal
employee of Stars for ten years.I've dedicated the predominance of my successful years
of my career to a singular network. So I cannot wait for Stars to
make the announcements of season two.A power book for forest shooting right here

(34:53):
in the greatest city in America,the gem of the Prairie, the hog
Butcher to the world, Chicago,the city of Big Shoulder. Fact it
batter happened because you know your boyfifty He went on say he ain't doing
no more deals with Stars. I'llbe like fifty child, let the shows
come out first. But you don'tkeep his mouth shut. No, no,
no, you can't. You can'ttie the boss down. He's gonna

(35:14):
say what he's gonna say, andhe's gonna say that's what I said.
Yeah, So, um, it'snot my place to say any of that
stuff. And I'm I'm just excited. I hope that we get a season
three. Um, there's so muchmore story to tell and it's really exciting.
And uh, I love Power Bookto Ghost. I'm really proud of
Michael Rainey Junior. Yeah. Um, and uh I really love Raising Canean

(35:35):
too, because that was my era. That Yeah, I love it's great.
It's a great show. But Ithink the power book for hour Power
of the Tommy spin off is reallyit's It's power, so I I you
know, Power's back everybody. It'slike this show is the continuation through Tommy's
eyes of this show that was abouttwo brothers, and one of those brothers
you know, had to die forthe show to live, right. I

(35:58):
know it's two different eras as Kingand Tommy, but I would love to
see London Brown's character Marvin together whenI sit out, like him and Tommy
together would be so funny, sogangster. He he does that, He
does the tongue in cheek gangster stuffso well London Brown just like he doesn't
he's not. I can't stand whencomedians you get that, when they comment

(36:21):
on their own jokes much. It'sjust funny because like, let us laugh
at you, afraid, let usif we don't get it, we don't
get it, Rona, let youlaugh at him and he's hilarious. One
thing I want to say, andagain, we're gonna drive him home with
fear. Don't forget. You canscream it tomorrow, butmorrow, Yes,
if you don't understand this the Queen'sAnglers. You could scream it both of

(36:44):
these characters and talking about powers tothe Timmy before you playing Fear and Tommy
are two different completely like Time isa gangster. But what I think we
all loved about Tommy, which Ithink you have in real life, is
this character like your loyalty, Jos, the chord the human being is unmatched.
You are truly one of my favoritecelebrities because no matter where we are,

(37:05):
I've I've been in Atlanta, y'all, let's kick it at teas of
it, and I'm not always knowneverywhere, but I always want to say
to you. Power I'm saying ispeople know me in Chicago. People don't
know me all over the world.But if I see if I had Joseph
up anywhere in the world, it'salways love and I just always appreciate it.

(37:25):
That one time I had to pretendto be his wife at a strip
thank you as some one him thatI had to. I had to lie,
I say I was his wife andhe's still didn't care. They said,
what do you want us to joinboth? Yeah, it was aggressive.
I got to get own power overafter I said, yes, you
should have seen but overall, Ithink you will always be successful god while

(37:49):
always work in your favorite because you'rejust basically a good human being. Thanks,
thank you really are. Sometimes thenice guys do win, but you
do have to have that edge likehe has in this business, otherwise people
will walk over You always say likeyou can push my line, but if
you cross my line, then we'regonna have a big problem. I like
that. It'll it'll come out.But also you mentioned T I T I

we're gonna watch Man, just buildingMan. When I was five,

(39:02):
w GCI girl kenter g And youknow what, I decided for this g
spot to do something a little different. If you guys shouldn't know, I
host a show on Instagram, Facebookand YouTube. It's called Singles Live.
I've been doing it for three years. I created it during COVID and my
baby has just grown and I've literallytalked to people all around the world like,

(39:22):
and I have a woman in thestudio. Her name is Angelina,
and how you Selena to the goodpeople of Chicago. Where you're from.
I'm from Resalie, from Minnesota,but I live in Mississippi. We've Mississippi.
Okay. How old are you?I'm forty one. Okay, UM,
so let's talk about a story onhow we met. You came on
my show I'm Looking for Love,and then you told me that you were

(39:43):
divorced. Yes, And then Ialways asked like, well, why did
you get a divorce? And thenyou proceeded to tell me what. Um.
I proceeded to tell you that Iwas made for fourteen years my husband
He basically left me because he saidthat I was not pretty enough, I
wasn't beautiful. Yeah, and Icould tell it was one thing. Your
soul just felt like defeated. SoI was like, you know, well,
how about I fly to Chicago,get your head done, nails up,

(40:06):
everything big? And you were crying. Yes, I was, well,
I didn't realize this. You've neverbeen on a plane before. No,
so at the time I literally wasjust thinking outfit here and els.
And then doctor Bolden from my dentalgallery, Um, he got wins of
this transformation and Angelina, you needa dental teeth. We felt as though
she needed a smile to go alongwith the makeover, and my dental gallery

(40:30):
doctor Bolden was so gracious and nowshe has a brand new smile. How
does that feel, girl, youhave a brand new smile. I feel
good. I feel happy. WhenI first seen these teeth, you guys,
I cried so hard, Like Iwas literally crying. I Kenda,
I thank you so much because youtouched my soul. And I told everybody

(40:53):
about you, and I told everybodywhat kind what kind of person you are.
That's sweet, your genuine, yougot a good heart, and like
you just really inspired me. Towant to do better, like because I
was going down like I was goingdownhill. But when I made you,
it's like you're picking me up bitby bit, like you're making me have

(41:15):
confidence in myself. I'm trying notto get emotional when I like I said,
when I see them teav yesterday,I gotta Tessa Joy. I have
no words, but what you anddoctor Boner and done for me, I
felt like I was dead, Andit's just it hurt me to the court
because at one point I did lovehim. Okay, I didn't really love

(41:38):
him. I love them world onmy heart and I did anything for him.
I would have took the shirt offmy back to give it to him.
But when he did me like that, it just hurt my soul.
I couldn't take it. And theway he talked about me. And I'm
not even lying, I'm talking thetruth. I have a lot of people
and family members that with mag meup and tell you guys that with everything

(42:01):
I'm saying, it's true. II talked about a lot, but family
members then didn't even know me andtalked about my smile and the way I
look and just put me down.And then when you came in to my
life and taste it and doctor boneand didn't this smile for me? I
was just so happy, Like Idon't know how to feel. I really

(42:23):
don't. But when I leave,it's like I'm gonna miss everybody. I
feel like I'm in a dream,like a little boy little in my When
I get my hair done, Ialready know him cry again like that girl.
We can't even cry, yea becauseyou I get your hands on well,
yeah, cry before you get tomake up that shout because we can't
be getting done. Yeah, becausewe can't about to make a listen.
Like I said, there's a guywill always prevail even in the dark times.

(42:46):

you, help you build yourself up, you know, because after this weekend,
it's gonna be up for you tolove on yourself, to get yourself
in the direction and what you wantto be. And you can do it.

the impossible happen. But now Godis like I did my part. Now
I need Angelina to do her part. Yeah, and I plan on doing
