Speaker 1 (00:07):
Back, back, back words, stand.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Comrad, how y'all been, How y'all been this week? It's
almost that day, It's almost that day. Lover's lame. But
you know, as usual, if you've been tuning in, checking in,
listening in on the Spreaker app for the audio version
(02:44):
every Thursday at two o'clock Eastern time. Hopefully you're watching
over on Twitch and YouTube live. Man, I swear this
is my and the mic don't cooperate, but that's t
n R TV on Twitch and tn r TV ten
(03:08):
twenty one on YouTube. As y'all know, Like I was saying,
I always like to start the show off with a
quote of the day. This one deep this and of
(03:29):
course it's our hue mount because I don't really like
to use the other word, you know, the other word.
They gave it like a If you really look it up,
it ain't what you want it to be. Yeah, it
(03:54):
ain't what you wanted to be. But the quote of
the day is we must hey, hey, I'm gonna give
me a team, a producing team, because all hats lay
(04:16):
on this hand. But anyhow, the quote of the day is,
we must accept for night disappointment, but never lose infinite hope,
Martin Luther King Jr. You know that that quote kind
of makes me think, like if I had to reflect
(04:40):
on it, it's like, you know, things happen in a moment,
but hope, when you really truly believe in yourself is
it's infinite. Like it's like like a person. I know
they say unlimited potential, unlimited basically as long as you
(05:02):
believe you can achieve. And like always say, hopefully it's
something positive because I don't want you out here trying
to be the best bank robber or something. But yeah,
that's the quote of the day, starting off the show
Quote of the Day by MLK for Black History Month,
(05:25):
like they like to call it. But I just read
some stuff, you know, Google, Google took not to move
off too far, but Google took you know, the Pride
month and the Black History They took another month off too.
But they it ain't you can't they say, you can't
find that. I haven't actually searched it yet.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
But.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
But there we go. So I've been playing with this board.
I think I got it right there. Hello, y'all hear
me better out there? Yeah, but this week in current event, man,
of course, you know the Super Bowl just happened. Everybody
(06:11):
talking about the Kendrick Lamar you know, I didn't. They
say it was a matches. Some people say it was
a negative message, but it's really all just truly based
off of what you believe. You know, you gotta believe
in yourself, like Martin Luther King said, but never lose
(06:33):
infinite hope in yourself because when like the way the
government going, you better start believing in yourself anyway. Because
if you're gonna be sitting around thinking you're gonna get
some hand out to something, I don't think that's working
no more. You're gonna have to make your you know,
you ever heard the saying, you know, people only help
(06:56):
those who help theirself. Yeah, current events, you know, But yeah,
Kendrick Lamar, Man, it was it was. It was a
I was at the moment, I was going it was
something going on that I really didn't get to lock
in on it the way I wanted to, but I
(07:18):
caught some glimpses and it was a cool performance. I
ain't gonna give it a bad grade or nothing because
the actual performance. But what's throwing me off at the
moment is how it's all these different opinions you know
that the revolution, the revolution should have been started for yourself,
(07:40):
you know. But it's good that people can try to unite.
Its something that make people, you know, think the one
to come together and be one instead of just you know,
but it starts with yourself. If you on, you know,
lock in and and fix yourself first. Hey, but yeah,
(08:04):
you know it's the one dude. He used to play
in the NFL too. I ain't gonna put no names
out there, but if you know, you know, he was
trying to you know, he was trying to be little younger.
You know what I'm saying, Well, Kendrick ain't younger, no more,
but he younger than me. But you know, but then
they got the message. I kind of felt what people
were saying. What was the message? Like, you know, it
(08:27):
meant something. But it's cool if you if you took
it as saying, look, man, to make you want to
be more than you were before you saw it, that's
a good thing. You know. Like it's gonna always be
some negativity in the mix, so you know, we can't
really thrive off of that, but you can engage and
(08:50):
voice your opinion with hashtag Voice your Opinion tn r
P show for you, can you know, leave your comment
or your opinion. You know, I love to see or
hear your perspectives. You can also text four four oh
nine nine nine nine five eight five with your opinion. Also,
(09:15):
I might even give you a call back. And of
course in other news, you got the boy Elon Musk.
He trying to corporate take over everything. It's almost like
he just you know how you ever had you ever
read the book the Best it's called the Best Laid Plans,
(09:39):
this about how they was grooming the guy to be
the president. But you know how you ever heard the
saying the president is really just like the puppet because
you know, muss is a very wealthy guy. What they say,
he got like seventy percent of the satellites in the sky.
He owned them, so he got a lot of control,
(10:01):
even though the best thing to control is yourself. Once
we learn to control ourselves, then we start mastering life
better because then we can take the time to, you know,
make the necessary changes. But we only could do that
when we start looking at ourselves. Like I like to say,
(10:23):
you know how they say don't regret. I like to say,
you need to regret, because when you regret that mean
you accept that you held it was accountable to accept
what mistake or error you made, and then now you
prepping yourself to make the necessary changes. But yeah, Elon
(10:43):
Musk even took over, they say it ain't no more
border education. And when I was doing the research on that,
I'm like, the border educations ain't just only been around
since seventy nine. Like I thought that was something that
was like been around. And then when you really look
think about the time like laps like periods of what
(11:03):
been going on over the years, a lot of the
stuff ain't really been around a long Because I always
tell people like America itself is really a young country.
It's only a couple hundred years old, so you know, hey,
but yeah, Elon mush you boy, he'll hear him and
(11:26):
Trump where they on the ramp page. But like everybody say,
what the Kendrick thing and the message that they perceived
it as you back, you gotta you gotta run with it, man,
hopefully you know everybody, because you know, things ain't gonna
never happen the way we expect them to happen. But
the fact of the matter is as long as you
(11:49):
putting the foot forward to make it better. It's when
you give up or settle or you know what I'm saying,
that you should start worrying. But if you're a person
that's always you know, out to like make your life better,
you know, especially if we can do it legally, especially
come from our community, because like our community, like Inner City,
(12:15):
we usually take the easy route, and like I always say, easy,
simple adventures. Easy usually come with the consequences. Simple is
probably the best route. But once you understand simple, then
you can try to be a little bit of adventurous,
you know. But yeah, we got Elion Musk activities. You know,
(12:40):
it's been a few other things going on, constrastrophes or
whatever you would like to call it. But as you know,
current events, it could be something going on right now.
Let me see if we got something currently going on
that we need to know about. Yeah, ain't knowing. They
(13:24):
talking about the tariffs again. You know Robert Kennedy, he's
stressing the health department. M hm. You know, we got
Trump winning all his lawsuits. He just got a he
just got paid from somebody, I know they say it
was like twenty five mil from ABC. How much more?
(13:49):
But he he up though, put it like that he
got Japan to invest a trillion dollars, So you know,
everybody only thinking about that. D I think, man, that
it's a way bigger picture than that, So don't don't.
That's where I think we go wrong get as people,
(14:10):
because we lock in on the negative stuff instead of
looking for the positive stuff, the stuff that can help
us move forward. Because when you study just paying attention
to the negative stuff, you keep a negative energy in you.
You ain't finding solutions because you're still looking at the problem.
(14:31):
You get what I'm saying, So as people, period, I
don't care what color or hue as it really is
labeled your hue, your skin color, because it's really like
a class thing. Put it like that. You know, so
(14:56):
if you ain't figured out what class of people where
you want to be in, don't don't let your history
decide where you want to be. History only lets you
know where you can go. Get what I'm saying, did
That's all right? Because when you study something, when you
you gotta know where something come from and know where
(15:18):
you're going. And then when you study history, it makes
your current situations seem more like relax because you understand
what was and then you can kind of you can
kind of open your eyes what they call the third eye,
you know, and you can kind of see and believe
(15:38):
it like differently. But when you just always got that
old pressed mindset like worrying about like I bring it
to your attention and it might even bother me sometimes,
but it don't worry me because with the society we
live in, even with all the AI and the robot
(16:00):
coming and stuff, it's still opportunities to position yourself regardless
of what age you are, depending on how you want
to live too. Also, that's one of the probably the
most important things, is how you want to live. But
that's that's where you know, the topic of the day
can really play a big part. Navigate friendships and how
(16:23):
to build meaningful connections, you know what I'm saying that
that's that's really important when they come to life, especially
when you're trying to achieve things. Now, if you just
like trying to you know, some people forgive me, but
some people just like to live to go. You give
you what I'm saying. They like, I'm here, I'm gonna
just wantever my time. Like they don't want to they
(16:47):
don't want to try to see how far they can
go in life like where they can really situate yourself.
It's not like you're trying to become a celebrity. It's
just or even the wealthiest person, but you're just trying
to establish a position in the world that you know of.
(17:10):
You get what I'm saying, Like, but that's where the
easy simple, you know what I'm saying. You might just say, Hey,
I'm gonna just do this basic simple life. I'm gonna
go get an education based off society. I'm gonna get
a career, I'm gonna buy housing, I'm gonna give me
a nice car, and I'm gonna just have a daily routine.
You know, hopefully get some promotions if you want to
(17:31):
be promoted, because anybody don't want to get promotions because
when you get promoted, when you at a work site
or office or whatever, it usually comes with more responsibility.
So if you're gonna add on more responsibilities, I prefer
for it to be personal, you know. And again you
could text at four for all nine nine nine nine
(17:54):
five eight five, or you could chat if you and
tuning in live on YouTube at t n R TV
T and twenty one and we over on twitch at
t N r TV tuning in to the Think and
(18:17):
Reflect podcast show with your Boy Ricky d Well. You
can voice your opinion using the hashtag voice your Opinion
tn r PCE show what y'all doing tomorrow? Hey, it
(18:42):
was a guy. It was a guy though, Getting back
to the achieving things. I heard a guy say, you know,
I heard this saying before, but it's say you only
you only remember for two days a day he was born,
in the day he was dying. Other than that, you
ain't you ain't nothing or something, you know? And I
almost liked it. Then I thought about it. I'll say, no,
(19:05):
I ain't. You ain't about to have that's that. You
gotta be a fool to think that was something hard.
You know what I'm saying. Man, You make every day
of your life more than what you think it is
like you, who's to say you can't leave a stamp
on history? Who's to say? But if you go and
if you go waking up in the day thinking it's
(19:28):
only two days that's important in your life, you ain't
gonna you ain't gonna never think to achieve nothing you
want of them live or die type people. You know
what I'm saying. In society. That's why a lot of
foreigners always say America according to people that have been
living here, when you ain't really been taught or you
(19:49):
try to take the easy route, it seems like it's
a horrible country. The opportunities that the country, that's why
you got so many foreigners. Even after they established the
United States of America, you got people coming over here.
That's why you got people what they call them immigrants
and stuff and and illegal immigrants. I don't want to
(20:13):
say immigrants, because some immigrants come over here and they
get their green card and they take their class, they
the citizenship class and everything. So because when I used
to go to trade school, I used to go to
trade school to be a I used to go to
trade school to be a machinist, you know, but I
(20:36):
never really got I never got into work for I
ain't even gonna say really, but it was one. It
was an accomplishment. I finished it, but it was you know,
my life was changing. I had more responsibility, so I
felt like, hey, I need to change the way I live.
But you know, based off of friendships and people that
(20:57):
she was out in your life, that mission kind of
got aborted. You know what I'm saying, like it didn't
go as planned, But like they say, proper preparation prevents
poor performance. So even when you plan and it don't
go the way you expect, you still made steps to
(21:20):
get there. So don't don't be mad at yourself. It
could get frustrated though, believe that, and I know. But
before we move on, because I'm gonna I'm gonna jump
back to Kendrick though I don't really want to go
in there because you know it because both sides, you know.
(21:41):
I hear the positive side, I hear the negative side,
and they both are kind of realistic. It's just how
you view the world. Like, so that's more like an
individual personal you know. But like I say, we're all
entitled to an event, an opinion, and you can voice yours.
Use it and the hashtag Voice your Opinion TNRP show.

We're gonna t n RP Voice your Opinion tn RP
Show V Day. And y'all already know when I always
(23:56):
gotta talk my sports. I'm a Cleveland diehard fan. You
wouldn't think so, but it's dedication. I'm gonna say it again.
I'm gonna probably keep saying even though I say I
ain't gonna say it, but I keep saying it. But
it's a dedication because you'll be like, man, you're supposed
to be a what fan and you'd be using Yeah,

(24:39):
Show and download the Spreaker app so you could get
notifications when for new episodes every Thursday at two pm
Eastern Time from I Heeart Radio. But in this week's
(25:01):
sports Coroner, I'm gonna be breaking down this super Bowl.
I ain't really got much to say because I ain't
even really have a choice. That's why I ain't even
make me a bet, because I ain't even know who
I wanted to win. I kind of wanted to see
Kansas City do the history thing, but I knew I
(25:22):
knew Philly, but I ain't think Philly was gonna pounce on.
I ain't think they was gonna pounce on case like that.
When I because I was it was my little situation
was going on. And when I looked at the score,
it was twenty four to nothing in halftime, I say,
this is the this super Bowl over with. They tried
(25:44):
to make it look like it was a game but Philly,
and it wasn't even Barkley. I thought Barkley was gonna
be the the difference maker. He mighta was just because
of his presence. But the boy Jalen Hurts was showing
all they say, he ain't even really had no path
yards in the second half because they was really just
(26:06):
running the ball. And I was really I was cheering
for I ain't gonna say cheering, but I was rooting
for KC because you know, they got a couple of
locals and Kareem Travis and hey, speaking of Travis, you know,
they trying to say if he if he might retire
(26:29):
or whatever. But somebody mentioned on the local stations they
was talking about how and I said that too, like
to myself, but I ain't say it the same way
they were saying it. But I'm like, hey, Travis Kelsey
come back home. He looked he might look you know,
he might make the Brown and Orange look good just
(26:51):
because he a hometown kid. He at the end of
his career, but he is still a marketing concept and
Browns at this point they need a lot of PR,
good PR going on. So to bring somebody like Travis
and then you know, he dy old girl Taylor Swift.
(27:16):
That'll be some more marketing, you know what I'm saying.
I think it'll be a good fit. You know, even
keep getting the joke on so that way you ain't
gotta put as much pressure on Kelsey and then go
draft because they say it's a lot of tight ends
in the draft. So yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
But like.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
My favorite moment though, from what I did see was
this past I think it hearts was you know, scrambling
whatever he hit. I think it was the what's their
top receiver? But he hit him like in stride. Oh no, no,
you know what, I'm gonna take that back that that
(28:03):
interception return was pretty because he came out of nowhere
SNAs did you know, did a little chicken joke before
you know what he was in the end zone. But
after the super Bowl, you already know what hypes up
to the off season. Get the talking and you know
(28:24):
the Browns we got the second pick, but I they
you know, man, they gonna have you everywhere. Before the draft,
you got Miles Garrett talking about trade me. I you know,
I like Miles whatever, But when somebody starts saying they
want to go, man, hey if you could get the
best deal. But the Browns the front office say they
ain't letting him go nowhere. But that could be a
(28:46):
bunch of smoke smoking lights, how they said. But if
we do trade him, like I said last week, we
need at least two first rounds, a nice middle round pick,
and the starting cat her player every turn. But they
was looking like thinking on the draft. They were saying
Tennessee was probably the most not the most recent, but
(29:09):
current information was Tennessee was taken cam Moore, the quarterback
from Miami. The Browns was gonna jump on your door
and then badi, YadA YadA. So now the most recent
discussion is the Titans gonna take either the linebacker dude
(29:33):
Carter or Hunter. So now that leader Browns to choose
between either cam Ward and or Shador. The Giants want Shador.
They got number three, and that's where the power move
come in at because boom, they the Browns can say, hey,
(29:54):
you know y'all really want Shador. We need next year's
first round. We need he's such and such and such
and such pam. So they come up on two three
extra picks just to move up, move back one space,
and they still get the quarterback that they seeing the
Browns really won't, which is Cam Moore. So that's like
(30:17):
a win win win situation. You know, it's really just
but that's like throw an extra win in there. They
get that one off. That mean they get another draft pick.
They still get their quarterback of the future. Hopefully he
turned out to be that person. You get an extra pick,
so boom, now you one of them middle picks that
(30:37):
you probably got from the Giants. That's where you go.
Draft you another third fourth round type quarterback to see
what he do. They get you one of them vets,
like a Kirk Cousins or somebody. But like what they
were saying on the local radio, I ain't put this
together too. They was like, oh no, that was Mary
Kay she a local journalist for the Cleveland Playing Dyler.
(31:02):
But she was saying something about whoever the veteran is,
they might as well be prepared to either shit most
of the season, if not the whole season, because whoever
the quarterback is, he coming in through the dough. Hopefully
he make it through the preseason to where a game
(31:24):
one you start. Because our coach he actually never had
his own quarterback. He he been he'd be picking people
off the streets, and then we traded for watching, you know,
football wise, I thought Washington. See I was the pr part.
I was skeptical because I wasn't in the rooms. But
on the football side, I was excited, like, oh we
(31:47):
got Washington, but his mentor is I think his mentor
was scrambled up and he just never got it. And
then they they was talking about some other stuff because
you know, people been doing they full research and they
say this guy on seven and seven drills, they say
he paused like he ain't even reacting, you know, with
(32:08):
the seven on seventh drills. So he really just one
of them players. He playing, He playing backyard what they
would call backyard football. That's what made his stats look good.
He just was athletic and had the size nah his
mental gun. So it just it don't work. He already
went reading defenses and stuff like that. So and then
(32:31):
we kind of got We tied to him for like
three four years, I think. So he gonna be around
in some type of unless we get lucky and somebody say, hey,
we taking him on. Let's see if he can work
for us, But we gonna we gonna have to take
a hit the Browns anyway, and of course while I'm
(32:52):
on the Cleveland talk, but man, the Browns before I
go away from the Browns, Man, the Browns if everything,
if they work, they hand right, even without Miles like that.
Like a lot of people have been saying, and even
I've been kind of saying it, but I ain't saying
in the way they saying it nationally. But it might
be a good thing for the Browns to get, you know,
(33:18):
the part ways with Garrett because it can help him.
I don't like to say rebuild, but reboot because we
still got we still basically got the same team they
predicted to make the playoffs. So while all of a
sudden we just just trash. Now you get what I'm saying, Like,
we just had a horrible season because the quarterback situation
(33:39):
didn't work. Jameis Winston was exciting, but he was a
turnover machine. Turn over. Hey he fun he can't but
you know, hey, j Bow Jay Job or whatever. I
forgot what his little nickname is. But you've been kind
of clowning too though. Dude down a little bit. I
(34:01):
know you're thinking about your after career, but don't don't
go out like that. Bro, sious. That's just my opinion.
You can voice yours too with the has tag voice
your opinion tn RP show for real. That guy kind
of tripping. But yeah, let me go into the Calves man.
(34:23):
They just made. You know, I talked about the trade
a little bit, but they didn't. Played a couple of
games with Hunter the last last night he scored like
a tenC the Calves boy. That that trade and they
still moving, they still falling. They they smashed on who
we played last night? See I ain't, I ain't what's
(34:44):
the name. But it's almost that time. It's about to
be All Star weekend, so you know after the All
Star Game, the season really turned up. I say after
the the trade deadline, but after the All Star that's
when the buyout start coming hitting up. So now you
(35:05):
really know what your team about to beat, like them
last three four weeks, you know, before the playoffs start,
it's like go hard. See we we so much in
a good position. We we ain't gonna be no less
than the two seed. But I think we're gonna hold
on to the first seed. But yeah, them cass man,
(35:26):
they looking good. They smashed Who did we played last night? Oh?
We played Toronto. Yeah, because Tristan. They was talking about
Tristian was about to fight this all time. They silly
(35:47):
for that one. But yeah it was one thirty one
eight man, they scored forty one in the first They
really that that first quarter? What did it? They smashed
the fort eventeen those but they say Tristan slammed the ball.
You know, the little the little Unretten room man. You know,
(36:08):
he's blowing the team out to him, that's like trying
to That's like scoring the toestdown and you up folk
testdowns for one minute to go and you're gonna run
in the end zone instead of taking the knee. Hey hey,
but so hey, you just be in the moment, man.
Tristan probably just was in the moment. He hadn't been
on the court. He probably was getting some little what
(36:31):
they call it the when when it's like the Washington
minutes or whatever they call it. But he likes you,
I'm about to get this dunk in. I want I
need to see. Let me see what the dunk was.
Let me see the videos. Let me.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
Oh, that's jack h Tristan's dunk. Mhm, okay, let me
(37:24):
see every.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Christmas fu I shot the video. Hell them some old dumps.
(37:56):
Wait where the dunk at they showing? They just keep
showing the fights. Man, I want to see the dunk,
like was it? That's was it? But you know that
sometimes people just be solusives to oh yes, yeah he
(38:24):
was on some trash. He was on trash at that
way because everybody was just standing there and he said, oh,
let me go get there. Hey, I wonder if that.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Was a.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
Uh you know how they be getting them in senitives
because I remember one year, man Larry Hughes. If you
know Larry Hughes, Hey, the guy barely played any games
that season. He got like a two million dollar bonus
just because the Cavs won more than forty nine games.
And he wasn't even part of the salute. He got
(38:57):
an extra two meal. But yeah, man, before I before
I skip on to the the holiday of the day
and these fun facts, you know. But I was watching
one of the national broadcast and they was talking about
because you know, they you know, they people trying to say,
(39:19):
but because my homes lost, he didn't fall down in
the goat the Grades of all time category. But man,
that guy got three super Bowls, three fourth super Bowls,
and he still like got a good five ten years
left in his career, so you never know. But when
(39:42):
they was talking, the guy brought up my one of
my favorites of all time. Who I used to think
I was when I was trying to be quarterback, Joe Montana.
You was either if you was the quarterback when I
was in you was Joe. You called yourself Joe Montana.
Or I used to like Random Cunningham too, but Joe Montana.
(40:04):
Dan Marino was my guy to that. But if you
were Joe Montana was like him and Jay Rice that
was that was just like I don't think it been
no combination. It probably it's probably teams with quarterback receiver
combination with better numbers, but the actual play on the field,
especially with the times that it was man Joe Montana.
(40:30):
But you got it just the order I put I
put Montana. You got Brady because Brady got the most
Super Bowls, but Joe Montana is undefeated in the Super Bowl.
He got four super Bowls. He undefeated. Brady got the
most Brady. It's hard to pick between them two though,
(40:54):
But I grew up in the Joe. I grew up
in both eras. But the one that really made me
want to be a court back with Joe Montana. And
then you know Patrick Mahomes. He still got time, so
we don't know where he might end up at a
lot and a lot of people to forget to throw
Terry Bradshaw in there too, because Terry Terry got like
(41:15):
folk Super Bowls too. I don't really know how it
worked out. I think he played in more than fok
but I know he got four Super Bowl wins, so
you gotta put him up there. But the one that
they forget about the most, this is before the super
Bowl era. That's Otto Graham, Otto Graham and that Browns
(41:36):
era before they came over to the NFL. They was
in the AFL and they used they used to constantly win.
I think they got like seven to ten championships. The
old Browns before it became the super Bowl. They used
to they was the ones you can beat. They was
they was the the upper echelone or the dynasty as
(41:59):
they call it. When when people was really just starting
to really understand the concept of the sport itself. So
when you when you talk goat talk when it comes
to NFL quarterbacks, don't forget auto Graham and he only
played for one team. Yeah, Auto Graham, I got joke,
(42:23):
Like I say, mantana, Brady Mahomes, he's still in the air.
But he didn't lost the Super Bowl. He didn't lost
a couple of super Bowls. No, you got Bradshaw and
then you got Allo Graham. See the only reason Allo
Graham coming there because he they won't Super Bowls when
they started calling it the super Bowl. That's when the
Browns they took they took a fall. But in the
(42:47):
eighties we used to be right there man, that John
ell It was either John Allway or Jim Kelly in
our way. Boy, I swear Jim Kelly was a nice
quarterback too. Like them eighties ninety quarterbacks, they was like
what you would call statues. That's why Airway was such
a beast. Quarterbacks like Randall Cunningham, you know because but Cunningham,
(43:14):
but he used to scare you that he was one
of the first quarterbacks that just what you would call
freestyle or just like you'd be like, hey, man, what
are you about to do? You know what I'm saying.
He running around dodging tacklers, and but you would be like,
damn he been in. You know, Cunningham was nice. But
(43:41):
did you know no number before a thousand contains the
letter A. That's your fun fact for the day. That's
that's your fun fact for the day. Shots fired. Yeah,
(44:08):
that's a fun fact. And if you did it's always
plenty of holidays, but the one I chose for the
day was National Self Love Day. Like, you can't nobody
else love you unless you learn to love yourself. But
you know what other people can do. They can make
(44:28):
you question yourself. But if you can question yourself, that
also could be a good thing, because that's like I
said earlier. You to regret is to accept. So if
you get to question yourself, that means you might need
to take the time to look in the mirror reevaluate
(44:48):
so you can re event and keep moving forward until
you know you called the pond. But until the end,
you gotta achieve for some type of greatness. You gotta
achieve some type of greatness. You gotta think you something
more than what other people think.
Speaker 3 (45:17):
Y'all know what time it is? When the year that.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
I ain't gonna go tomorrow because I think I want tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
I'm badly to.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
Sports man, I'll be telling my boy, I said, no,
you could talk to sports all day because we talk
sports all day. With talk, we be talking life too.
What you already know is that they can rect saying, man, diet,
your boys be talking about navigating. You want to see
a talk?
Speaker 3 (45:58):
You get it for me?
Speaker 2 (46:00):
A shit. I can't tell you how. What I can
tell it is important connections. And you gotta realize where
you come from, you know where they come and after
you gotta realize, you gotta realize the people that you
(46:26):
allowed to be in your life that you.
Speaker 3 (46:29):
You know.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
Would call a friend, because that's a strong word. Friend
too though, because my one of my theories is like
your first set of friends, some of them might turn
off to be long friends or like y'all might, but
best believe and during that journey, y'all gonna have some
(46:54):
type of I ain't gonna call it a fall out,
but some disagree. Y'all gonna have some disagreements for sure,
because you know, I'm still buddies with most of my
elementary and you know, friends and stuff. But most most
(47:16):
of the time, you gotta understand, like we all most
like when you become friends with people because where you
were raised or born or even go to school and
stuff like that. As a child and teenager, them are
almost friends that are forced on you. You give you
(47:37):
what I'm saying, because you you at that age, you
don't really have the choice. You can't really make the
choice of where your environment or location, you know what
I'm saying. You don't really have that option. You can
seclude yourself and not even learn who the people are,
(48:00):
and you could just be your own individual. You know,
once you start understanding the life, you can achieve the
things you want out of life based off of what
you didn't learn and you know and such. But that's
where the navigating come in at because once you start
(48:23):
getting old enough to realize what's good for you and
what's not, and most of us we be we get comfortable.
Like that's like the saying with the comfort zone, you
know without one of the shows out there Current recently
was talking about how they break your own comfort zone.
And we get comfortable with the people that we hang with.
(48:43):
But you ever heard the saying you know you are
the five You are the average of the five people
you hang around the most. So if you hanging around
on average five people, there's people you associate with what
type of what type of things are they into?
Speaker 4 (48:59):
What?
Speaker 2 (48:59):
Like what do they have you doing? Like how is
your thinking? Like do they do you end up in
drama and all type of you know, mishap from dealing
with these people. But them, most of the time are
the people that you started life with calling friends. But
then as you become older and you start making like Okay,
(49:24):
when you go to like at the high school, you
you go to college, but your your college or university
is more or trade school or whatever you but at
the high school there's more like you choosing your environment,
like you choose like it's on you. Like but like
I say, we been picked up, happens and we be
(49:45):
comfortable and we be kind of stuck in what we
would call familiarity, like Okay, I'm familiar with these people,
YadA YadA, yah knowing you know, and it ain't no
good for you. But in the end, it's all, yo,
it's all on you, and that you're not blaming other people.
(50:07):
But it's just the fact that Okay, when I'm around
these people, we are not there's nothing, no brainstorming going on,
no ideas, you know, circulating. And that's like I was
in earlier when I was talking about how I was
gonna mention one of my comrades in the spotlight. But
he younger than me, but his mindset, I can almost
(50:30):
consider him a day to freeing because you know, when
I was coming up, he was, he was probably he
wasn't even really thought of it, you know, because he's
that much younger than me. But the fact that his mind,
his brain shet what I like to call it, is
on the same paths where I see myself trying to
(50:51):
be or been wanting to be or trying to go.
You know, that's like the day tools, you know, the
day tools. The day tools are the people who are
on the same type of wavelength at you. Because y'all
(51:13):
more y'all more linked up or hooked up based off
of conversation communication like things that align or are similar interests,
you know what I'm saying, So it's easier for y'all.
Y'all them the day two sometimes turn out to be
some of your best, most supportive friends because y'all have
(51:39):
a better understanding on each other, you know, like y'all
purpose in life, the goals are similar, so it's easier
to get along. You get what I'm saying, like y'all
gonna y'all, y'all gonna be thinking more solutions than problems,
like getting back to the talking about the current events
(52:02):
and how you know, Elon Musk and Trump them changing
all this stuff. But in the end, it's about you
know what you set your goals for. But that's the
thing with the day two. But you gotta be careful
with day twos too, because you never know what they
background are. You know, some of some day twoes and
they you know, what they say is rocky to sleep.
(52:27):
That's how I see when you come from an urban community, man,
they're oppressed thinking. It almost expands over generations without conscious
leaving being aware, like you might even really really really
want to be some or try to be somewhere, you
(52:47):
want to change the narrative. But from your generational it's
almost a curse, like they say. But as long as
each generation is trying to better what that they came from,
then hopefully and one of them generations just it just
completely stopped. And in today's society, this is probably the
(53:09):
best time for everybody to figure out how to get
the negativity up out of their system because like the
op shit and all of that, you know what I'm saying,
Like always man, even especially in the homes, Like the
homes really need to figure out how to solution base.
(53:30):
But the communities you from sixty fourth and I'm from
sixty third and all of that, and you my op
because what is y'all really opting folk? Because I never
understand that when I came up. But you know, I
had my little confrontations, but I was never like that's
the enemy. I was more a protect you know, I'm
(53:51):
gonna protect myself. But I was one of them cats.
You know. I like to move around like so I'm
a networker, you know what I'm saying. That's getting back
to the navigating the friendships and how to build meaningful
connections because when you network, usually networking with people that
(54:11):
you want your lifestyle to be, you know what I'm saying.
So when when the more you grow, the more you
want the people that you know or community like like
they they don't be friends. They start off more as associates,
you know what I'm saying, or business partners, and then
(54:32):
based off of the communications between the two, it might
turn into a friendship, you know, but the connection and
when we get off it's more like the connection, like
like the boy I'm gonna shot him out shout out
sauce worker could he say, you know, it sounds weird,
(54:53):
but it makes sense when he say, you know, we
gotta you want people around you that you use like
I gotta be I gotta be useful to you. You
gotta be useful to me, or otherwise we just taking,
you know, we wasting each other's time. And that's that's
(55:15):
like like I like to say. I like to say,
you know, like like how I do this, for instance,
this this is what I choose to do with the time.
I feel like I have to spare. This is what
I want, you know, it's other things that go on
with with time that I have the spirit because I
(55:36):
only do this once a week and taking notes, and
by being once a week, I could just really no
take throughout the week. So it's not you know, it's organizing.
You're just learning to structure yourself. And once you start
knowing something it's about to be like a regular part
of your life, you figure out how to include it
(55:56):
so that it doesn't affect your life. You know, it's
more deductive then destructive or you get you know what
I'm saying. So that's that's how you get to you
when you not when you start, you know, having meaning
for connections you get to you. You build. That's like
like the same man sharper Man, like still sharp and
(56:18):
still not saying literally man, but humans, like if we're
around each other brainstorm and coming up with ideas solutions
them the people you want to build friendships and connections with,
you know, even if you want to go like the
next the other routing. You know, hey, hopefully your connections
(56:40):
are worth your time. But yeah, man, navigate friendships, you know,
build meaning for connections. You can voice your opinion with
Hastaged voice your opinion Tea and our Peace Show Text
for for a nine five eight nine nine nine five
(57:04):
eight five where you can also voice your opinion and
like I say, I might leave, let's give you a
shout out on the next episode and then we might
even discuss. I might even set up an interview with
it with you. And that's something and my little homie
was talking about, you know, because the interview thing, you know,
it's it's it's it's it's part of the fruition, you
(57:28):
know what I'm saying. But I also wanted to be
correct too, you know what I'm saying. And I don't
just want to do an interview just to say I'm
doing the interview. I needed to be meaningful also. But yeah,
shout out mister, make them holler that's my guy, a
little young PM. But like I said, I moving on.
(57:52):
Before I move on, I want to shout out bashing
and bashing injury settlement lawyers. Yes, or if you're in
the northeast Ohio area and you look and you was
in a car accident or you hurt yourself at work,
make sure you reach out to bashing and bashing and
(58:13):
let them know Ricky Calhoun's sense you. But I was
gonna throw in the little trivia. But that's that's what
I'm gonna do. I'm gonna just do the trip. That's
what my new other than I was trying to think
of a game. But I'm gonna just do the trivia
because back in the days, I was gonna do like
(58:37):
a streaming show called you Better Know That. You know,
I was gonna go around town, you know, asking people
such and such did you know? And then if they
ain't know, then I'd be like, oh, well, you better
know that hey, if you steal it, man, just get
just give me my credit. Man, But yeah, you better
(58:58):
know that. So well we gonna do is that's almost
like my fun facts. So what it is is I
mess around and get rid of fun facts and just
make that the trivia section. What you think hashtag Voice
Show Opinion, t n RP Show Trivia. If you want
(59:20):
to comment and give me some suggestions, I'm surely welcoming.
Surely surely welcome me. But before we go, don't forget
to go grab you some of that Bavaria's clothing collections.

(59:41):
collection to Ruley Kingdom. You must tame the jungle a
consistent show of dash and spirit bravery Bavarias. Before I
leave y'all, I'm gonna leave y'all with more of my
(01:00:02):
final thought man. But the final thought is if you're
gonna live, man, believe, have faith so you can achieve. Man,
don't don't don't let one moment deeter your whole vision,
your idea to dream, because if you ain't got no dream,
(01:00:26):
you really like to me, I ain't gonna put nobody down,
but people that don't have like a vision or dream
outside like even if you're going to work, like have
a vision to be like when you go stock the
chef man, make sure your vision is to make sure
that when a person come in there and they shopping
and they be like, man, whoever stocked this chef boy,
they stocked us out of this. So with them final thoughts, man,
(01:00:51):
just achieved to be your best and in the process
you always gonna get better. And with that we at.
Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
Pen pen Penis Pan
Back, back, back words, stand.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Comrad, how y'all been, How y'all been this week? It's
almost that day, It's almost that day. Lover's lame. But
you know, as usual, if you've been tuning in, checking in,
listening in on the Spreaker app for the audio version
(02:44):
every Thursday at two o'clock Eastern time. Hopefully you're watching
over on Twitch and YouTube live. Man, I swear this
is my and the mic don't cooperate, but that's t
n R TV on Twitch and tn r TV ten
(03:08):
twenty one on YouTube. As y'all know, Like I was saying,
I always like to start the show off with a
quote of the day. This one deep this and of
(03:29):
course it's our hue mount because I don't really like
to use the other word, you know, the other word.
They gave it like a If you really look it up,
it ain't what you want it to be. Yeah, it
(03:54):
ain't what you wanted to be. But the quote of
the day is we must hey, hey, I'm gonna give
me a team, a producing team, because all hats lay
(04:16):
on this hand. But anyhow, the quote of the day is,
we must accept for night disappointment, but never lose infinite hope,
Martin Luther King Jr. You know that that quote kind
of makes me think, like if I had to reflect
(04:40):
on it, it's like, you know, things happen in a moment,
but hope, when you really truly believe in yourself is
it's infinite. Like it's like like a person. I know
they say unlimited potential, unlimited basically as long as you
(05:02):
believe you can achieve. And like always say, hopefully it's
something positive because I don't want you out here trying
to be the best bank robber or something. But yeah,
that's the quote of the day, starting off the show
Quote of the Day by MLK for Black History Month,
(05:25):
like they like to call it. But I just read
some stuff, you know, Google, Google took not to move
off too far, but Google took you know, the Pride
month and the Black History They took another month off too.
But they it ain't you can't they say, you can't
find that. I haven't actually searched it yet.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
But.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
But there we go. So I've been playing with this board.
I think I got it right there. Hello, y'all hear
me better out there? Yeah, but this week in current event, man,
of course, you know the Super Bowl just happened. Everybody
(06:11):
talking about the Kendrick Lamar you know, I didn't. They
say it was a matches. Some people say it was
a negative message, but it's really all just truly based
off of what you believe. You know, you gotta believe
in yourself, like Martin Luther King said, but never lose
(06:33):
infinite hope in yourself because when like the way the
government going, you better start believing in yourself anyway. Because
if you're gonna be sitting around thinking you're gonna get
some hand out to something, I don't think that's working
no more. You're gonna have to make your you know,
you ever heard the saying, you know, people only help
(06:56):
those who help theirself. Yeah, current events, you know, But yeah,
Kendrick Lamar, Man, it was it was. It was a
I was at the moment, I was going it was
something going on that I really didn't get to lock
in on it the way I wanted to, but I
(07:18):
caught some glimpses and it was a cool performance. I
ain't gonna give it a bad grade or nothing because
the actual performance. But what's throwing me off at the
moment is how it's all these different opinions you know
that the revolution, the revolution should have been started for yourself,
(07:40):
you know. But it's good that people can try to unite.
Its something that make people, you know, think the one
to come together and be one instead of just you know,
but it starts with yourself. If you on, you know,
lock in and and fix yourself first. Hey, but yeah,
(08:04):
you know it's the one dude. He used to play
in the NFL too. I ain't gonna put no names
out there, but if you know, you know, he was
trying to you know, he was trying to be little younger.
You know what I'm saying, Well, Kendrick ain't younger, no more,
but he younger than me. But you know, but then
they got the message. I kind of felt what people
were saying. What was the message? Like, you know, it
(08:27):
meant something. But it's cool if you if you took
it as saying, look, man, to make you want to
be more than you were before you saw it, that's
a good thing. You know. Like it's gonna always be
some negativity in the mix, so you know, we can't
really thrive off of that, but you can engage and
(08:50):
voice your opinion with hashtag Voice your Opinion tn r
P show for you, can you know, leave your comment
or your opinion. You know, I love to see or
hear your perspectives. You can also text four four oh
nine nine nine nine five eight five with your opinion. Also,
(09:15):
I might even give you a call back. And of
course in other news, you got the boy Elon Musk.
He trying to corporate take over everything. It's almost like
he just you know how you ever had you ever
read the book the Best it's called the Best Laid Plans,
(09:39):
this about how they was grooming the guy to be
the president. But you know how you ever heard the
saying the president is really just like the puppet because
you know, muss is a very wealthy guy. What they say,
he got like seventy percent of the satellites in the sky.
He owned them, so he got a lot of control,
(10:01):
even though the best thing to control is yourself. Once
we learn to control ourselves, then we start mastering life
better because then we can take the time to, you know,
make the necessary changes. But we only could do that
when we start looking at ourselves. Like I like to say,
(10:23):
you know how they say don't regret. I like to say,
you need to regret, because when you regret that mean
you accept that you held it was accountable to accept
what mistake or error you made, and then now you
prepping yourself to make the necessary changes. But yeah, Elon
(10:43):
Musk even took over, they say it ain't no more
border education. And when I was doing the research on that,
I'm like, the border educations ain't just only been around
since seventy nine. Like I thought that was something that
was like been around. And then when you really look
think about the time like laps like periods of what
(11:03):
been going on over the years, a lot of the
stuff ain't really been around a long Because I always
tell people like America itself is really a young country.
It's only a couple hundred years old, so you know, hey,
but yeah, Elon mush you boy, he'll hear him and
(11:26):
Trump where they on the ramp page. But like everybody say,
what the Kendrick thing and the message that they perceived
it as you back, you gotta you gotta run with it, man,
hopefully you know everybody, because you know, things ain't gonna
never happen the way we expect them to happen. But
the fact of the matter is as long as you
(11:49):
putting the foot forward to make it better. It's when
you give up or settle or you know what I'm saying,
that you should start worrying. But if you're a person
that's always you know, out to like make your life better,
you know, especially if we can do it legally, especially
come from our community, because like our community, like Inner City,
(12:15):
we usually take the easy route, and like I always say, easy,
simple adventures. Easy usually come with the consequences. Simple is
probably the best route. But once you understand simple, then
you can try to be a little bit of adventurous,
you know. But yeah, we got Elion Musk activities. You know,
(12:40):
it's been a few other things going on, constrastrophes or
whatever you would like to call it. But as you know,
current events, it could be something going on right now.
Let me see if we got something currently going on
that we need to know about. Yeah, ain't knowing. They
(13:24):
talking about the tariffs again. You know Robert Kennedy, he's
stressing the health department. M hm. You know, we got
Trump winning all his lawsuits. He just got a he
just got paid from somebody, I know they say it
was like twenty five mil from ABC. How much more?
(13:49):
But he he up though, put it like that he
got Japan to invest a trillion dollars, So you know,
everybody only thinking about that. D I think, man, that
it's a way bigger picture than that, So don't don't.
That's where I think we go wrong get as people,
(14:10):
because we lock in on the negative stuff instead of
looking for the positive stuff, the stuff that can help
us move forward. Because when you study just paying attention
to the negative stuff, you keep a negative energy in you.
You ain't finding solutions because you're still looking at the problem.
(14:31):
You get what I'm saying, So as people, period, I
don't care what color or hue as it really is
labeled your hue, your skin color, because it's really like
a class thing. Put it like that. You know, so
(14:56):
if you ain't figured out what class of people where
you want to be in, don't don't let your history
decide where you want to be. History only lets you
know where you can go. Get what I'm saying, did
That's all right? Because when you study something, when you
you gotta know where something come from and know where
(15:18):
you're going. And then when you study history, it makes
your current situations seem more like relax because you understand
what was and then you can kind of you can
kind of open your eyes what they call the third eye,
you know, and you can kind of see and believe
(15:38):
it like differently. But when you just always got that
old pressed mindset like worrying about like I bring it
to your attention and it might even bother me sometimes,
but it don't worry me because with the society we
live in, even with all the AI and the robot
(16:00):
coming and stuff, it's still opportunities to position yourself regardless
of what age you are, depending on how you want
to live too. Also, that's one of the probably the
most important things, is how you want to live. But
that's that's where you know, the topic of the day
can really play a big part. Navigate friendships and how
(16:23):
to build meaningful connections, you know what I'm saying that
that's that's really important when they come to life, especially
when you're trying to achieve things. Now, if you just
like trying to you know, some people forgive me, but
some people just like to live to go. You give
you what I'm saying. They like, I'm here, I'm gonna
just wantever my time. Like they don't want to they
(16:47):
don't want to try to see how far they can
go in life like where they can really situate yourself.
It's not like you're trying to become a celebrity. It's
just or even the wealthiest person, but you're just trying
to establish a position in the world that you know of.
(17:10):
You get what I'm saying, Like, but that's where the
easy simple, you know what I'm saying. You might just say, Hey,
I'm gonna just do this basic simple life. I'm gonna
go get an education based off society. I'm gonna get
a career, I'm gonna buy housing, I'm gonna give me
a nice car, and I'm gonna just have a daily routine.
You know, hopefully get some promotions if you want to
(17:31):
be promoted, because anybody don't want to get promotions because
when you get promoted, when you at a work site
or office or whatever, it usually comes with more responsibility.
So if you're gonna add on more responsibilities, I prefer
for it to be personal, you know. And again you
could text at four for all nine nine nine nine
(17:54):
five eight five, or you could chat if you and
tuning in live on YouTube at t n R TV
T and twenty one and we over on twitch at
t N r TV tuning in to the Think and
(18:17):
Reflect podcast show with your Boy Ricky d Well. You
can voice your opinion using the hashtag voice your Opinion
tn r PCE show what y'all doing tomorrow? Hey, it
(18:42):
was a guy. It was a guy though, Getting back
to the achieving things. I heard a guy say, you know,
I heard this saying before, but it's say you only
you only remember for two days a day he was born,
in the day he was dying. Other than that, you
ain't you ain't nothing or something, you know? And I
almost liked it. Then I thought about it. I'll say, no,
(19:05):
I ain't. You ain't about to have that's that. You
gotta be a fool to think that was something hard.
You know what I'm saying. Man, You make every day
of your life more than what you think it is
like you, who's to say you can't leave a stamp
on history? Who's to say? But if you go and
if you go waking up in the day thinking it's
(19:28):
only two days that's important in your life, you ain't
gonna you ain't gonna never think to achieve nothing you
want of them live or die type people. You know
what I'm saying. In society. That's why a lot of
foreigners always say America according to people that have been
living here, when you ain't really been taught or you
(19:49):
try to take the easy route, it seems like it's
a horrible country. The opportunities that the country, that's why
you got so many foreigners. Even after they established the
United States of America, you got people coming over here.
That's why you got people what they call them immigrants
and stuff and and illegal immigrants. I don't want to
(20:13):
say immigrants, because some immigrants come over here and they
get their green card and they take their class, they
the citizenship class and everything. So because when I used
to go to trade school, I used to go to
trade school to be a I used to go to
trade school to be a machinist, you know, but I
(20:36):
never really got I never got into work for I
ain't even gonna say really, but it was one. It
was an accomplishment. I finished it, but it was you know,
my life was changing. I had more responsibility, so I
felt like, hey, I need to change the way I live.
But you know, based off of friendships and people that
(20:57):
she was out in your life, that mission kind of
got aborted. You know what I'm saying, like it didn't
go as planned, But like they say, proper preparation prevents
poor performance. So even when you plan and it don't
go the way you expect, you still made steps to
(21:20):
get there. So don't don't be mad at yourself. It
could get frustrated though, believe that, and I know. But
before we move on, because I'm gonna I'm gonna jump
back to Kendrick though I don't really want to go
in there because you know it because both sides, you know.
(21:41):
I hear the positive side, I hear the negative side,
and they both are kind of realistic. It's just how
you view the world. Like, so that's more like an
individual personal you know. But like I say, we're all
entitled to an event, an opinion, and you can voice yours.

Show and download the Spreaker app so you could get

Eastern Time from I Heeart Radio. But in this week's
(25:01):
sports Coroner, I'm gonna be breaking down this super Bowl.
I ain't really got much to say because I ain't
even really have a choice. That's why I ain't even
make me a bet, because I ain't even know who
I wanted to win. I kind of wanted to see
Kansas City do the history thing, but I knew I
(25:22):
knew Philly, but I ain't think Philly was gonna pounce on.
I ain't think they was gonna pounce on case like that.
When I because I was it was my little situation
was going on. And when I looked at the score,
it was twenty four to nothing in halftime, I say,
this is the this super Bowl over with. They tried
(25:44):
to make it look like it was a game but Philly,
and it wasn't even Barkley. I thought Barkley was gonna
be the the difference maker. He mighta was just because
of his presence. But the boy Jalen Hurts was showing
all they say, he ain't even really had no path
yards in the second half because they was really just
(26:06):
running the ball. And I was really I was cheering
for I ain't gonna say cheering, but I was rooting
for KC because you know, they got a couple of
locals and Kareem Travis and hey, speaking of Travis, you know,
they trying to say if he if he might retire
(26:29):
or whatever. But somebody mentioned on the local stations they
was talking about how and I said that too, like
to myself, but I ain't say it the same way
they were saying it. But I'm like, hey, Travis Kelsey
come back home. He looked he might look you know,
he might make the Brown and Orange look good just
(26:51):
because he a hometown kid. He at the end of
his career, but he is still a marketing concept and
Browns at this point they need a lot of PR,
good PR going on. So to bring somebody like Travis
and then you know, he dy old girl Taylor Swift.
(27:16):
That'll be some more marketing, you know what I'm saying.
I think it'll be a good fit. You know, even
keep getting the joke on so that way you ain't
gotta put as much pressure on Kelsey and then go
draft because they say it's a lot of tight ends
in the draft. So yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
But like.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
My favorite moment though, from what I did see was
this past I think it hearts was you know, scrambling
whatever he hit. I think it was the what's their
top receiver? But he hit him like in stride. Oh no, no,
you know what, I'm gonna take that back that that
(28:03):
interception return was pretty because he came out of nowhere
SNAs did you know, did a little chicken joke before
you know what he was in the end zone. But
after the super Bowl, you already know what hypes up
to the off season. Get the talking and you know
(28:24):
the Browns we got the second pick, but I they
you know, man, they gonna have you everywhere. Before the draft,
you got Miles Garrett talking about trade me. I you know,
I like Miles whatever, But when somebody starts saying they
want to go, man, hey if you could get the
best deal. But the Browns the front office say they
ain't letting him go nowhere. But that could be a
(28:46):
bunch of smoke smoking lights, how they said. But if
we do trade him, like I said last week, we
need at least two first rounds, a nice middle round pick,
and the starting cat her player every turn. But they
was looking like thinking on the draft. They were saying
Tennessee was probably the most not the most recent, but
(29:09):
current information was Tennessee was taken cam Moore, the quarterback
from Miami. The Browns was gonna jump on your door
and then badi, YadA YadA. So now the most recent
discussion is the Titans gonna take either the linebacker dude
(29:33):
Carter or Hunter. So now that leader Browns to choose
between either cam Ward and or Shador. The Giants want Shador.
They got number three, and that's where the power move
come in at because boom, they the Browns can say, hey,
(29:54):
you know y'all really want Shador. We need next year's
first round. We need he's such and such and such
and such pam. So they come up on two three
extra picks just to move up, move back one space,
and they still get the quarterback that they seeing the
Browns really won't, which is Cam Moore. So that's like
(30:17):
a win win win situation. You know, it's really just
but that's like throw an extra win in there. They
get that one off. That mean they get another draft pick.
They still get their quarterback of the future. Hopefully he
turned out to be that person. You get an extra pick,
so boom, now you one of them middle picks that
(30:37):
you probably got from the Giants. That's where you go.
Draft you another third fourth round type quarterback to see
what he do. They get you one of them vets,
like a Kirk Cousins or somebody. But like what they
were saying on the local radio, I ain't put this
together too. They was like, oh no, that was Mary
Kay she a local journalist for the Cleveland Playing Dyler.
(31:02):
But she was saying something about whoever the veteran is,
they might as well be prepared to either shit most
of the season, if not the whole season, because whoever
the quarterback is, he coming in through the dough. Hopefully
he make it through the preseason to where a game
(31:24):
one you start. Because our coach he actually never had
his own quarterback. He he been he'd be picking people
off the streets, and then we traded for watching, you know,
football wise, I thought Washington. See I was the pr part.
I was skeptical because I wasn't in the rooms. But
on the football side, I was excited, like, oh we
(31:47):
got Washington, but his mentor is I think his mentor
was scrambled up and he just never got it. And
then they they was talking about some other stuff because
you know, people been doing they full research and they
say this guy on seven and seven drills, they say
he paused like he ain't even reacting, you know, with
(32:08):
the seven on seventh drills. So he really just one
of them players. He playing, He playing backyard what they
would call backyard football. That's what made his stats look good.
He just was athletic and had the size nah his
mental gun. So it just it don't work. He already
went reading defenses and stuff like that. So and then
(32:31):
we kind of got We tied to him for like
three four years, I think. So he gonna be around
in some type of unless we get lucky and somebody say, hey,
we taking him on. Let's see if he can work
for us, But we gonna we gonna have to take
a hit the Browns anyway, and of course while I'm
(32:52):
on the Cleveland talk, but man, the Browns before I
go away from the Browns, Man, the Browns if everything,
if they work, they hand right, even without Miles like that.
Like a lot of people have been saying, and even
I've been kind of saying it, but I ain't saying
in the way they saying it nationally. But it might
be a good thing for the Browns to get, you know,
(33:18):
the part ways with Garrett because it can help him.
I don't like to say rebuild, but reboot because we
still got we still basically got the same team they
predicted to make the playoffs. So while all of a
sudden we just just trash. Now you get what I'm saying, Like,
we just had a horrible season because the quarterback situation
(33:39):
didn't work. Jameis Winston was exciting, but he was a
turnover machine. Turn over. Hey he fun he can't but
you know, hey, j Bow Jay Job or whatever. I
forgot what his little nickname is. But you've been kind
of clowning too though. Dude down a little bit. I
(34:01):
know you're thinking about your after career, but don't don't
go out like that. Bro, sious. That's just my opinion.
You can voice yours too with the has tag voice
your opinion tn RP show for real. That guy kind
of tripping. But yeah, let me go into the Calves man.
(34:23):
They just made. You know, I talked about the trade
a little bit, but they didn't. Played a couple of
games with Hunter the last last night he scored like
a tenC the Calves boy. That that trade and they
still moving, they still falling. They they smashed on who
we played last night? See I ain't, I ain't what's
(34:44):
the name. But it's almost that time. It's about to
be All Star weekend, so you know after the All
Star Game, the season really turned up. I say after
the the trade deadline, but after the All Star that's
when the buyout start coming hitting up. So now you
(35:05):
really know what your team about to beat, like them
last three four weeks, you know, before the playoffs start,
it's like go hard. See we we so much in
a good position. We we ain't gonna be no less
than the two seed. But I think we're gonna hold
on to the first seed. But yeah, them cass man,
(35:26):
they looking good. They smashed Who did we played last night? Oh?
We played Toronto. Yeah, because Tristan. They was talking about
Tristian was about to fight this all time. They silly
(35:47):
for that one. But yeah it was one thirty one
eight man, they scored forty one in the first They
really that that first quarter? What did it? They smashed
the fort eventeen those but they say Tristan slammed the ball.
You know, the little the little Unretten room man. You know,
(36:08):
he's blowing the team out to him, that's like trying
to That's like scoring the toestdown and you up folk
testdowns for one minute to go and you're gonna run
in the end zone instead of taking the knee. Hey hey,
but so hey, you just be in the moment, man.
Tristan probably just was in the moment. He hadn't been
on the court. He probably was getting some little what
(36:31):
they call it the when when it's like the Washington
minutes or whatever they call it. But he likes you,
I'm about to get this dunk in. I want I
need to see. Let me see what the dunk was.
Let me see the videos. Let me.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
Oh, that's jack h Tristan's dunk. Mhm, okay, let me
(37:24):
see every.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Christmas fu I shot the video. Hell them some old dumps.
(37:56):
Wait where the dunk at they showing? They just keep
showing the fights. Man, I want to see the dunk,
like was it? That's was it? But you know that
sometimes people just be solusives to oh yes, yeah he
(38:24):
was on some trash. He was on trash at that
way because everybody was just standing there and he said, oh,
let me go get there. Hey, I wonder if that.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Was a.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
Uh you know how they be getting them in senitives
because I remember one year, man Larry Hughes. If you
know Larry Hughes, Hey, the guy barely played any games
that season. He got like a two million dollar bonus
just because the Cavs won more than forty nine games.
And he wasn't even part of the salute. He got
(38:57):
an extra two meal. But yeah, man, before I before
I skip on to the the holiday of the day
and these fun facts, you know. But I was watching
one of the national broadcast and they was talking about
because you know, they you know, they people trying to say,
(39:19):
but because my homes lost, he didn't fall down in
the goat the Grades of all time category. But man,
that guy got three super Bowls, three fourth super Bowls,
and he still like got a good five ten years
left in his career, so you never know. But when
(39:42):
they was talking, the guy brought up my one of
my favorites of all time. Who I used to think
I was when I was trying to be quarterback, Joe Montana.
You was either if you was the quarterback when I
was in you was Joe. You called yourself Joe Montana.
Or I used to like Random Cunningham too, but Joe Montana.
(40:04):
Dan Marino was my guy to that. But if you
were Joe Montana was like him and Jay Rice that
was that was just like I don't think it been
no combination. It probably it's probably teams with quarterback receiver
combination with better numbers, but the actual play on the field,
especially with the times that it was man Joe Montana.
(40:30):
But you got it just the order I put I
put Montana. You got Brady because Brady got the most
Super Bowls, but Joe Montana is undefeated in the Super Bowl.
He got four super Bowls. He undefeated. Brady got the
most Brady. It's hard to pick between them two though,
(40:54):
But I grew up in the Joe. I grew up
in both eras. But the one that really made me
want to be a court back with Joe Montana. And
then you know Patrick Mahomes. He still got time, so
we don't know where he might end up at a
lot and a lot of people to forget to throw
Terry Bradshaw in there too, because Terry Terry got like
(41:15):
folk Super Bowls too. I don't really know how it
worked out. I think he played in more than fok
but I know he got four Super Bowl wins, so
you gotta put him up there. But the one that
they forget about the most, this is before the super
Bowl era. That's Otto Graham, Otto Graham and that Browns
(41:36):
era before they came over to the NFL. They was
in the AFL and they used they used to constantly win.
I think they got like seven to ten championships. The
old Browns before it became the super Bowl. They used
to they was the ones you can beat. They was
they was the the upper echelone or the dynasty as
(41:59):
they call it. When when people was really just starting
to really understand the concept of the sport itself. So
when you when you talk goat talk when it comes
to NFL quarterbacks, don't forget auto Graham and he only
played for one team. Yeah, Auto Graham, I got joke,
(42:23):
Like I say, mantana, Brady Mahomes, he's still in the air.
But he didn't lost the Super Bowl. He didn't lost
a couple of super Bowls. No, you got Bradshaw and
then you got Allo Graham. See the only reason Allo
Graham coming there because he they won't Super Bowls when
they started calling it the super Bowl. That's when the
Browns they took they took a fall. But in the
(42:47):
eighties we used to be right there man, that John
ell It was either John Allway or Jim Kelly in
our way. Boy, I swear Jim Kelly was a nice
quarterback too. Like them eighties ninety quarterbacks, they was like
what you would call statues. That's why Airway was such
a beast. Quarterbacks like Randall Cunningham, you know because but Cunningham,
(43:14):
but he used to scare you that he was one
of the first quarterbacks that just what you would call
freestyle or just like you'd be like, hey, man, what
are you about to do? You know what I'm saying.
He running around dodging tacklers, and but you would be like,
damn he been in. You know, Cunningham was nice. But
(43:41):
did you know no number before a thousand contains the
letter A. That's your fun fact for the day. That's
that's your fun fact for the day. Shots fired. Yeah,
(44:08):
that's a fun fact. And if you did it's always
plenty of holidays, but the one I chose for the
day was National Self Love Day. Like, you can't nobody
else love you unless you learn to love yourself. But
you know what other people can do. They can make
(44:28):
you question yourself. But if you can question yourself, that
also could be a good thing, because that's like I
said earlier. You to regret is to accept. So if
you get to question yourself, that means you might need
to take the time to look in the mirror reevaluate
(44:48):
so you can re event and keep moving forward until
you know you called the pond. But until the end,
you gotta achieve for some type of greatness. You gotta
achieve some type of greatness. You gotta think you something
more than what other people think.
Speaker 3 (45:17):
Y'all know what time it is? When the year that.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
I ain't gonna go tomorrow because I think I want tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
I'm badly to.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
Sports man, I'll be telling my boy, I said, no,
you could talk to sports all day because we talk
sports all day. With talk, we be talking life too.
What you already know is that they can rect saying, man, diet,
your boys be talking about navigating. You want to see
a talk?
Speaker 3 (45:58):
You get it for me?
Speaker 2 (46:00):
A shit. I can't tell you how. What I can
tell it is important connections. And you gotta realize where
you come from, you know where they come and after
you gotta realize, you gotta realize the people that you
(46:26):
allowed to be in your life that you.
Speaker 3 (46:29):
You know.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
Would call a friend, because that's a strong word. Friend
too though, because my one of my theories is like
your first set of friends, some of them might turn
off to be long friends or like y'all might, but
best believe and during that journey, y'all gonna have some
(46:54):
type of I ain't gonna call it a fall out,
but some disagree. Y'all gonna have some disagreements for sure,
because you know, I'm still buddies with most of my
elementary and you know, friends and stuff. But most most
(47:16):
of the time, you gotta understand, like we all most
like when you become friends with people because where you
were raised or born or even go to school and
stuff like that. As a child and teenager, them are
almost friends that are forced on you. You give you
(47:37):
what I'm saying, because you you at that age, you
don't really have the choice. You can't really make the
choice of where your environment or location, you know what
I'm saying. You don't really have that option. You can
seclude yourself and not even learn who the people are,
(48:00):
and you could just be your own individual. You know,
once you start understanding the life, you can achieve the
things you want out of life based off of what
you didn't learn and you know and such. But that's
where the navigating come in at because once you start
(48:23):
getting old enough to realize what's good for you and
what's not, and most of us we be we get comfortable.
Like that's like the saying with the comfort zone, you
know without one of the shows out there Current recently
was talking about how they break your own comfort zone.
And we get comfortable with the people that we hang with.
(48:43):
But you ever heard the saying you know you are
the five You are the average of the five people
you hang around the most. So if you hanging around
on average five people, there's people you associate with what
type of what type of things are they into?
Speaker 4 (48:59):
What?
Speaker 2 (48:59):
Like what do they have you doing? Like how is
your thinking? Like do they do you end up in
drama and all type of you know, mishap from dealing
with these people. But them, most of the time are
the people that you started life with calling friends. But
then as you become older and you start making like Okay,
(49:24):
when you go to like at the high school, you
you go to college, but your your college or university
is more or trade school or whatever you but at
the high school there's more like you choosing your environment,
like you choose like it's on you. Like but like
I say, we been picked up, happens and we be
(49:45):
comfortable and we be kind of stuck in what we
would call familiarity, like Okay, I'm familiar with these people,
YadA YadA, yah knowing you know, and it ain't no
good for you. But in the end, it's all, yo,
it's all on you, and that you're not blaming other people.
(50:07):
But it's just the fact that Okay, when I'm around
these people, we are not there's nothing, no brainstorming going on,
no ideas, you know, circulating. And that's like I was
in earlier when I was talking about how I was
gonna mention one of my comrades in the spotlight. But
he younger than me, but his mindset, I can almost
(50:30):
consider him a day to freeing because you know, when
I was coming up, he was, he was probably he
wasn't even really thought of it, you know, because he's
that much younger than me. But the fact that his mind,
his brain shet what I like to call it, is
on the same paths where I see myself trying to
(50:51):
be or been wanting to be or trying to go.
You know, that's like the day tools, you know, the
day tools. The day tools are the people who are
on the same type of wavelength at you. Because y'all
(51:13):
more y'all more linked up or hooked up based off
of conversation communication like things that align or are similar interests,
you know what I'm saying, So it's easier for y'all.
Y'all them the day two sometimes turn out to be
some of your best, most supportive friends because y'all have
(51:39):
a better understanding on each other, you know, like y'all
purpose in life, the goals are similar, so it's easier
to get along. You get what I'm saying, like y'all
gonna y'all, y'all gonna be thinking more solutions than problems,
like getting back to the talking about the current events
(52:02):
and how you know, Elon Musk and Trump them changing
all this stuff. But in the end, it's about you
know what you set your goals for. But that's the
thing with the day two. But you gotta be careful
with day twos too, because you never know what they
background are. You know, some of some day twoes and
they you know, what they say is rocky to sleep.
(52:27):
That's how I see when you come from an urban community, man,
they're oppressed thinking. It almost expands over generations without conscious
leaving being aware, like you might even really really really
want to be some or try to be somewhere, you
(52:47):
want to change the narrative. But from your generational it's
almost a curse, like they say. But as long as
each generation is trying to better what that they came from,
then hopefully and one of them generations just it just
completely stopped. And in today's society, this is probably the
(53:09):
best time for everybody to figure out how to get
the negativity up out of their system because like the
op shit and all of that, you know what I'm saying,
Like always man, even especially in the homes, Like the
homes really need to figure out how to solution base.
(53:30):
But the communities you from sixty fourth and I'm from
sixty third and all of that, and you my op
because what is y'all really opting folk? Because I never
understand that when I came up. But you know, I
had my little confrontations, but I was never like that's
the enemy. I was more a protect you know, I'm
(53:51):
gonna protect myself. But I was one of them cats.
You know. I like to move around like so I'm
a networker, you know what I'm saying. That's getting back
to the navigating the friendships and how to build meaningful
connections because when you network, usually networking with people that
(54:11):
you want your lifestyle to be, you know what I'm saying.
So when when the more you grow, the more you
want the people that you know or community like like
they they don't be friends. They start off more as associates,
you know what I'm saying, or business partners, and then
(54:32):
based off of the communications between the two, it might
turn into a friendship, you know, but the connection and
when we get off it's more like the connection, like
like the boy I'm gonna shot him out shout out
sauce worker could he say, you know, it sounds weird,
(54:53):
but it makes sense when he say, you know, we
gotta you want people around you that you use like
I gotta be I gotta be useful to you. You
gotta be useful to me, or otherwise we just taking,
you know, we wasting each other's time. And that's that's
(55:15):
like like I like to say. I like to say,
you know, like like how I do this, for instance,
this this is what I choose to do with the time.
I feel like I have to spare. This is what
I want, you know, it's other things that go on
with with time that I have the spirit because I
(55:36):
only do this once a week and taking notes, and
by being once a week, I could just really no
take throughout the week. So it's not you know, it's organizing.
You're just learning to structure yourself. And once you start
knowing something it's about to be like a regular part
of your life, you figure out how to include it
(55:56):
so that it doesn't affect your life. You know, it's
more deductive then destructive or you get you know what
I'm saying. So that's that's how you get to you
when you not when you start, you know, having meaning
for connections you get to you. You build. That's like
like the same man sharper Man, like still sharp and
(56:18):
still not saying literally man, but humans, like if we're
around each other brainstorm and coming up with ideas solutions
them the people you want to build friendships and connections with,
you know, even if you want to go like the
next the other routing. You know, hey, hopefully your connections
(56:40):
are worth your time. But yeah, man, navigate friendships, you know,
build meaning for connections. You can voice your opinion with
Hastaged voice your opinion Tea and our Peace Show Text
for for a nine five eight nine nine nine five
(57:04):
eight five where you can also voice your opinion and
like I say, I might leave, let's give you a
shout out on the next episode and then we might
even discuss. I might even set up an interview with
it with you. And that's something and my little homie
was talking about, you know, because the interview thing, you know,
it's it's it's it's it's part of the fruition, you
(57:28):
know what I'm saying. But I also wanted to be
correct too, you know what I'm saying. And I don't
just want to do an interview just to say I'm
doing the interview. I needed to be meaningful also. But yeah,
shout out mister, make them holler that's my guy, a
little young PM. But like I said, I moving on.
(57:52):
Before I move on, I want to shout out bashing
and bashing injury settlement lawyers. Yes, or if you're in
the northeast Ohio area and you look and you was
in a car accident or you hurt yourself at work,
make sure you reach out to bashing and bashing and
(58:13):
let them know Ricky Calhoun's sense you. But I was
gonna throw in the little trivia. But that's that's what
I'm gonna do. I'm gonna just do the trip. That's
what my new other than I was trying to think
of a game. But I'm gonna just do the trivia
because back in the days, I was gonna do like
(58:37):
a streaming show called you Better Know That. You know,
I was gonna go around town, you know, asking people
such and such did you know? And then if they
ain't know, then I'd be like, oh, well, you better
know that hey, if you steal it, man, just get
just give me my credit. Man, But yeah, you better
(58:58):
know that. So well we gonna do is that's almost
like my fun facts. So what it is is I
mess around and get rid of fun facts and just
make that the trivia section. What you think hashtag Voice
Show Opinion, t n RP Show Trivia. If you want
(59:20):
to comment and give me some suggestions, I'm surely welcoming.
Surely surely welcome me. But before we go, don't forget
to go grab you some of that Bavaria's clothing collections.

(59:41):
collection to Ruley Kingdom. You must tame the jungle a
consistent show of dash and spirit bravery Bavarias. Before I
leave y'all, I'm gonna leave y'all with more of my
(01:00:02):
final thought man. But the final thought is if you're
gonna live, man, believe, have faith so you can achieve. Man,
don't don't don't let one moment deeter your whole vision,
your idea to dream, because if you ain't got no dream,
(01:00:26):
you really like to me, I ain't gonna put nobody down,
but people that don't have like a vision or dream
outside like even if you're going to work, like have
a vision to be like when you go stock the
chef man, make sure your vision is to make sure
that when a person come in there and they shopping
and they be like, man, whoever stocked this chef boy,
they stocked us out of this. So with them final thoughts, man,
(01:00:51):
just achieved to be your best and in the process
you always gonna get better. And with that we at.
