Leeper is in the bell that Sharon. What's up? Baby? What's up?

(03:51):
I'm excited to be here. Alsoa creative director. Honey, don't
leave that out. I'm sorry.Okay, listen. You know, you
know when I look at co founder, I think about a person who's a
visionary. I apologize, Okay,working out in love. You know,
I'm gonna get him a dictionary girl. I love it. I love it.

(04:15):
So So Saran, talk to meabout future Land. I mean,
tell me how it is developed,developed, because a lot of people are
still learning about future Land. Iknow it's this is the second year that
you all are coming together to reallyuh put the city on the map when
it comes to technology and creatives.Talk about that, I mean absolutely so

(04:41):
really it is future Land is aboutthe intersection of technology, entrepreneurship, culture
and the arts. So we understandthat Cleveland has amazing artists and creatives here
and also we're known as like therost Belt, the industrious city that we
you know, always been. Butyou know, under our current mayor's initiative,

(05:03):
we didn't want to mess the techway, like we don't want to
miss technology. So we all cametogether and came up with a strategy of
this two day conference where we bringall the resources in Cleveland, get gather
communities out of the boroughs and looksand cranny's of the different spaces in Cleveland
to come to one place to crosspollinate, cross pollinate, mingle, network,

(05:26):
share resources. Because we understand communityis truly how you build. You
have to build with your team,have a strong community. So that's the
goal. So at the forefront,it's all about technology and how technology interplace
with the arts, with entrepreneurship andwith the culture. Yeah, you know,
and you know, big shout outto Mayor Justin Bibb for having a

(05:50):
vision to really move Cleveland forward.You know, we've been you know,
known to be yah, you shouldcall us a mistake on the lake.
But I believe under this new regimeand this new leadership, we're no longer
can be called that, we canbe called Futureland. And so I absolutely

(06:13):
I appreciate that. Talk a littlebit more about the event, talk a
little bit more about what should peopleexpect at Futureland this year? Right,
And so just to piggy back alittle bit off of what you were saying
earlier, our founding partners along withthe founding co founders is the City of
Cleveland, Jumpstart in the United BlackFund, So we've all been working together

(06:38):
to execute on this. Futureland isnot just a Todday conference that's the catalyst,
but Future Land is a movement.So we're trying to build community between
Octobers, so you can look forwardto future Land every October, but between
time, as we build our community, we want to be sharing those resources
all throughout the year. So Ijust want to make sure I said that,
and so this year, what youcan expect you can expect see some

(07:00):
tech. You can expect to hearamazing speakers. We've got people from Revolt
in the building into Tavio. We'vegot former CEO Jeff Charney of Progressive,
We've got nineteen eighty five in thebuilding. We've got a lot of people
who are coming to bring information notonly from the tech side, but also,
like I said, from the cultureand the art side. You can

(07:24):
expect amazing evening events. Come readyto work, Ready to come with your
pitch, Ready, come with yourask Ready. The people who get the
most out of our conference come withexpectation. And I think that that's with
anything. If you come thinking thatyou're not going to get anything, you're
not going to get anything. Ifyou come with a clear vision and an
expectation of what you want to getout of the experience, you will exceed

(07:46):
your You exceed your expectations. Sothat's what you can expect. So fireside
chats, workshops, panels, keykeynotes of sorts, and then a lot
of networking opportunities and mixers. Wow, that's dope. Now, how do
people purchase tickets? Where do peoplego to purchase tickets to attend this two

(08:11):
day event? Yeah, So youcan go to future Land cl E dot
com to register, and I believemy promo code is still working. I
have a promo code which is Sharonmy first name, g A f L
C l E twenty three that youcan use and I'll share that with you,

(08:31):
so you could share it with yourviewers. But yet go to futureland
cl dot com and register. We'dwe'd love to have you. And another
thing that I'd like to say isthis year's theme is thrived. So every
year we want to pick a wordthat just represents what we want the city
to do, and this year Ichose the words thrive. We all kind
of agreed to that word because that'sreally where I believe we see the city

(08:54):
going. We deserve to be athriving city. We have enough talent,
enough intellect, and enough innovative ideasto thrive. And so that's the theme
of this year. So you're goingto see that and feel that. You
feel that on the website with thewith the plants and the futuristic elements of
like what does what does future Landlook like when it's thriving in a metaphorical

(09:16):
sense, and so you're going tofeel that also when you go into the
space Wow, listen, you know, I know all good things must come
to an end, and I appreciateyou taking out time out of their busy
schedule as you prepared for this bigweekend. Just drop a word of encouragement
to the people that are listening,that are tapped in uh into the mindset

(09:37):
of creatives and technology, those thatare really trying to figure it out.
You know, where do we gofrom here? How do we evolve in
a technological society? Drop a wordof encouragement to them. Yeah, I
would just say, first and foremost, you're not alone. Everyone at any

(09:58):
threshold or any level, it's tryingto figure something out. It's trying to
get better, is trying to evolve. So I would say, get rid
of imposter syndrome and go after whatit is that you need and understand what
it's gonna take for you to getthere. If it's going to take getting
your mental health together, get thattogether. If it's going to take finances

(10:18):
and resources, really pursue that,If it's going to take discipline and just
having better habits, pursue that.I think we forget about the small habits
in our lives that make us humanthat are like integral to being successful.
Once you have the technology, youknow you can use it, But if
you don't have the character to supportyour dream, it's not gonna work.

(10:41):
So let this be an opportunity foryou to do a lot of self reflection,
map out your plan, and thenget to it. Because truly we
are blessed with every day that wehave breath in our lungs and life.
We're blessed to create what it isthat we want to create. God is
so good in that way, andso do the work, whatever that work
it looks like for you, sothat you can have the life that you
really want. And that's that's myword encouragement to myself. So I'm sharing

(11:05):

of the Jeff Brown Show. Peace. This is the Jeff Brown Show.

(19:40):
Hey, you're back with the JeffBrown Show with your girl Coca Brown,
and we are back with the hottopic. Honey. And I don't know
about you, Jeff, but Igotta leave with this because of his kind
of home for me. But theyare raking Anthony Mackie across the cols right
now. If you don't know whoAnthony Mackie is, if you might know
the Spike the movie She Hate Me, of course, he's you know,

(20:00):
the new Captain America. You know, he's that dude in Marvel. You
know. He apparently was at afootball game and a lady asked could he
take a picture with her son.He politely declined. She caught an attitude
she went and told someone else.They rolled up on him talking about you
ain't gonna take no picture with nokid. He's like, no, thank

(20:21):
you, I would prefer not to, and there people are mad at him
for that, And I just feellike it needs to be a celebrity handbook
because people just don't know that eventhough we are celebrities and we put ourselves
in the public eye, we dostill have the right to have boundaries.
I do not take pictures with mychild. If you roll up on me

(20:42):
and ask me for a picture,and I'm with my child, nine times
out of ten, I'm either gonnasay yes and make sure he's away from
us, or i will politely declineand say, hey, I'm just a
family time today, if you don'tmind. And nobody's ever given me a
problem with that. I know thatI've been partying at an at the party,
I got something that's on fire inmy hand and a drink. No,

(21:03):
I don't want to be documented withthat, right, I prefer But
the fact that there are people whoreally believe that if you're a celebrity,
that we have no boundaries. Wehad a picture with you whenever you ask,
even if it is a child.Now me, yeah, I probably
take a picture of the child,how to put my cigar out, how
to put my drink down, Butthat's still his prerogative. And I don't

(21:25):
understand. See the problem is thesenew celebrities got everybody having access to them,
so everybody feels entitled to roll upin your personal face. Where the
celebrities of yesteryear, first of all, there was security. Second of all,
you just gotta respect it and rollup on them just because they're a
celebrity. But these new celebrities gotit now that everybody got access to you,

(21:47):
and they feel entitled. And I'mgonna tell you right now, anybody
that knows me knows that I'm thenice person in the world. I'll take
pictures. Hell, I just tookwhat three pitches in Target a few minutes
ago. But if I say norespect that, I well, you know,
also, Jack, I don't oweyou. Jack. I do it

(22:08):
at the kindness of my heart.You know also too, and you and
you and you. I agree withyou on that. Coco. Here's the
thing. And I'm only I'm onlygonna play devil's advocate on this because I
agree with you. But I alsounderstand that a lot of times people see
folks on the big screen, theysee you all in in places on and

(22:32):
on levels that they dream to beall but ultimately they're just where they are.
So when they do get a chanceto see you, it's like,
oh, that's Coco, or that'sAnthony, or that's jay Z or that's
you know, and and and andthe challenge is is that because they're so
overwhelmed that it's you, they're like, oh, man, this is my

(22:52):
only chance, you know. AndI get that. And if I tell
you, they gotta respect it,no, thank you. That was I
was getting ready to get to that. And so what happened is they be
so overwhelmed where they don't really realizethat you are also a human being too.
This is just your profession, You'rejust more. You're a human being

(23:15):
and you're entitled to having your privacy. You're entitled to enjoy your private life
or whatever that might be. It'syour time. So you know, at
the end of the day, youknow, you should be able to go
into a target and go shopping.You should be able to go into a
supermarket and go shopping. You shouldbe able to go into the mall and

(23:36):
shop and just enjoy your life.But we understand that a lot of times
that may not always be the case. But if you are polite and say,
hey, not today, or youknow, can you respect my space
today? Not today, I'm justnot, you know, here to do
that. I'm here to really enjoymy quality time, my family, my
friends and just don't want to beon the camera today. And I hope

(23:59):
you understand. If a person don'tunderstand that, then they really got serious,
serious issues, They really got theyreally have to grow up to understand
that, Hey, at the endof the day, this person, in
these individuals, they're human beings,you know what I'm saying. Jacks and
This is just what we do.It's just what I understand. But see,
you gotta understand in yesteryear, honey, you just wasn't rolling up on

(24:22):
Michael Jackson. You wasn't rolling upon friends. Oh, you wasn't rolling
up on the cast of a differentworld. No, there was a level
of respect and boundaries. Because thesenew celebrities are so thirsty for attention,
they've created this invisible line that peoplefeel they can cross because they can talk
to you directly on social media.You'll react to them blah blah blah,

(24:45):
So they forget that. There's kindof a protocol. You do that with
the little millennial celebrities. Don't rollup on me disrespectful and then catch an
attitude because I'm like, no,thank you. But that's the mentality that
people have. And the thing is, too, this is no distant Anthony
man, because I absolutely love him. But baby, if you know him
so well and you think that he'sthat great actor and you know all about

(25:06):
him, then you should have knownthe boy don't take pictures. That's well
known throughout the industry, well knownthat Anthony does not do pictures. Anthony,
that's not his thing. So doyour research. Okay, if you
got Google on your phone, googlea celebrity right quick when you see him
and make sure they even inviting it. Okay, and well you heard it

(25:30):
here first. Hey, you justwent through a class on how to approach
and take pictures pictures with celebrities viaCopra Brown. So y'all just learned it.
Google on your phone, you googleme, You will see nobody say
I was mean to them. Yougoogle him. Trust me, this ain't

(25:51):
the first time somebody then fell sometype of way. Because Anthony was like,
no, get out my face,I ain't gonna even deal with it.
Why yeah, why would you evenso now you want to be mad.
But all of this in the industryof looking at her like girl you
didn't get the memo? Yeah,well obviously she didn't because she's she would
have caught no feelings. But inaddition to that, I want to shout

(26:11):
out the Obamas. You know,former presence. Come on here, Michelle
Obama are celebrating thirty one years ofmarriage. A big shot out to them.
So black love does work and bothpartners can be bosses and nobody's ego
gets hurt. Crazy. You needto hear that one more time, they

(26:33):
haven't partners, spouses can be bosses, and nobody's ego is hurt. Okay,
let's black glove, you said,press continue on that. I think
I think that's amazing. I thinkthat's amazing now, you know, and
you know, it's kind of interesting. You know, that family would represent
it us in this community so sowell for the eight years that they served

(26:57):
that in that White House and nowon on on Pennsylvania Avenue. So I
the last time class, real class. Yeah, and they continue to and
they continue to operate on that,you know. And I'm just happy to
have witnessed that, uh, thatwonderful historic moment for those eight years.

(27:22):
And you know, and I don'tknow if we'll ever see that again in
our lifetime, but I'm just gladthat we did see it with our own
lives, that it was possible tosee a black family live and operate in
the White House with integrity and withclass. So again, we shut out
to the Obamas for thirty years ofmarriage. Happy anniversary to you all.

(27:45):
Asian dog Hey Coch check this out. Asian who is that? She's a
She's an influencer of celebrity, youknow, influence hip hop influencer, But
Asian doll Uh says that you cantell when people were born ugly? Is
that true? Fixing Jesus, Imean, I mean to a degree you

(28:07):
can't. I mean now, Inot mind you. I knew some questionably
facially challenged people growing up who turnedout to be beautiful swans. You know,
but if you stayed right, youknow, like the ugly ding turned
into the beautiful swan. Like Iknow some There's a guy I went to

(28:30):
high school with no lie. Noneof us was trying to get him no
play in high school because he washe was facially challenged. When I tell
you, when he came to classrem union, all of us our mouths
dropped. We was like, whatthe what? When I tell you he
walking in, he was fine,his heir, and we was like,
wait, that is not That's notthe dude with the crooked buck teeth and

(28:52):
the coke bottle glasses and the badacne. That cannot be him. That
cannot. But when I tell you, he lost them like a mofo.
So can you tell everybody was bornugly? Sometimes that could just be you
know, their spirit too, BecauseI know some people who are quite beautiful
to the eye, but their spirits. Yeah. Well, you know,

(29:15):
you know, I was at acampaign function a couple of weeks ago,
and and they gave me the micto get everybody lined up for the picture
with the with the candidate that wasrunning for re election. And I said
in the microphone, I said,all the other people in the back and
all the pretty women up run andand everybody started laughing. You know,
it's just so funny. So uhso, I guess you can't be born.

(29:37):
Uh. I mean we've all seenyou've seen that little video going around
where they show an ugly baby tosomebody to get theirs. Yeah, that
baby was definitely going through some thingsin here before. Three times over.
That baby has been reborn forty fivetimes. But you know what, I

it. Well listen on another note, and as we end the show real
quick, bad bugs have taken overParis, So if you're going to Paris,

(31:07):
be careful. That's the stuff.You know, how nasty somebody had
to be that they infested the entirecity. Ain't the cleanest I heard Paris
ain't the cleanest. I've heard thatfrom quite a few people who've gone there.
I went many many mini moons ago, and we were there for a
couple of hours. I don't recallit being like horrifically nasty or nothing.

(31:30):
Like that. But people have saidsome things recently about you know, Paris.
But let me tell you something,you nastiest dude to if you infest
your house, if you have theability to infest the city, you just
need to doubt your entire body andflammable. I'm just I'm just confused,

(31:51):
you know, I'm just confused.All parents be in the city of love,
but it's got bad bugs. I'mjust confused. What kind of love
could be politic going? Did youin the hotel? They say the hotels
are infested with it like that?That's just well, you know, they
don't bathe like we do over there. What excuse me? Oh, you
didn't know that the French don't.Apparently the French don't believe in bathing daily

(32:16):
like we do as Americans. No, they don't wear deodorant. Now that
I remember very very uh specifically whenI was there, that the aromas of
people were very interesting. That theplace that's the place of love and they

(32:37):
stink. I guess they're used toit because they're not accustomed to wear deodorant
and they don't bathe. But tosomeone like us, you know, we
can we know. Funk is avery specific smell to us, you know.
Oh yeah, you know. Soyou know, you go somewhere where

(32:59):
people are not uh you know,inclined to bathe daily, or where deoda
reant, there's going to be,there's going to be. But yeah,
yeah, so you know, Ijust when you when I think about it,
if people over there, you know, if that's kind of the culture,
and a lot of a lot ofpeople over there don't believe in bathing

(33:21):
daily, or maybe they don't washtheir closes often. I don't know.
But to infest a city with bedbugs that they need to they need to
find the host. They need tofind the host, like they found that
little monkey and outbreak. They needto find the host. I let me
tell you this, and I andI know we gotta go, but listen,
let me tell you something, man, that is scary to me,

(33:44):
because can you imagine how many peoplethat's from Atlanta, in Cleveland, from
New York, all over this country, that's in Paris right now and coming
home with a suitcase full of bedbugs, comeing home with I'm listen,
won't let nobody in my plate thenof them? Brother. That's why I
keep a wonderful bottle of that antibacterial life. Saw by my bed.

(34:07):
I mean when I change my sheets, I light saw everything like yeah,
nah, no, you got it. Plus I don't let nobody in my
bed like that, like yeah,listen, no, you gotta stand outside.
Man, where did you come from? Where last you think about it?
Come on? Now, you cantell when somebody ain't clean. You
can tell. You don't look atsomebody and say, oh right, you
