Nosset Regional School District in Massachusetts, alleging the district failed
25
00:01:40.670 --> 00:01:44.049
to stop racist bullying dating back to 2021 that contributed
26
00:01:44.090 --> 00:01:48.719
to the boys' 2024 suicide attempt. Lawyers for Civil Rights
27
00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:52.200
filed the complaint in U.S. District Court for the District
28
00:01:52.260 --> 00:01:55.120

29
00:01:55.260 --> 00:01:59.599
identified as A.W. The lawsuit says A.W. was repeatedly targeted
30
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:03.090
at Nosset Regional Middle School in New Orleans, Texas, in Orleans,
31
00:02:03.170 --> 00:02:08.240
excuse me, in Orleans, beginning in 2021. And like, I
32
00:02:08.289 --> 00:02:11.169
went to one of these schools, you know, um, uh,
33
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:13.020
shout out to Lancaster Catholic. I went to one of
34
00:02:13.060 --> 00:02:16.620
these schools where, where I was one of four black
35
00:02:16.659 --> 00:02:20.860
boys to graduate in my graduating class. All right. And I,
36
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.180
I believe there was two black girls in my graduating class,
37
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:27.469
you know? So like, it was very white, you know?
38
00:02:27.650 --> 00:02:28.500
And like, I get it.
39
00:02:28.569 --> 00:02:31.009
My family and parents wanted me to have a better
40
00:02:31.069 --> 00:02:34.439
education and, But like there was a lot of racial
41
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:36.680
undertones that was happening in that school.
42
00:02:36.740 --> 00:02:38.819
Part of the reason why I don't go back.
43
00:02:38.699 --> 00:02:43.280
To anything now because of the racial undertones that I experienced,
44
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:46.780
because of the racist bullying that I had experienced. And
45
00:02:46.860 --> 00:02:51.800
this isn't just from the students. This is the racist
46
00:02:51.860 --> 00:02:56.919
bullying from the teachers as well, from grown adults. More specifically,
47
00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:59.919
there was one adult that my dad had to come
48
00:03:00.020 --> 00:03:02.479
into the school and tell her, like, yo, lay off
49
00:03:02.539 --> 00:03:06.060
my son. And this wouldn't be somebody that would be
50
00:03:06.379 --> 00:03:09.599
of a position of importance. Excuse me, I don't want
51
00:03:09.650 --> 00:03:13.750
to be disrespectful here. But this was the librarian. Like,
52
00:03:13.789 --> 00:03:16.990
the librarian was giving me a hard time, folks. The
53
00:03:17.030 --> 00:03:22.560
librarian was giving me detention, folks. Like, the librarian. Like
54
00:03:22.740 --> 00:03:27.800
that is just wild, wild work. The librarian, my dad
55
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:30.930
had to come in and say, yo, chill, lay off
56
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:34.590
my son. And this is why I have my kids
57
00:03:34.710 --> 00:03:36.750
in the schools that they are in now with much
58
00:03:36.849 --> 00:03:40.449
more diversity. You know, granted, I was blessed to put
59
00:03:40.509 --> 00:03:42.349
my kids in that situation.
60
00:03:42.430 --> 00:03:45.669
Everybody doesn't have that situation, but it just.
61
00:03:45.490 --> 00:03:50.030
Makes me think like, man, man, I am, I am glad.
62
00:03:51.810 --> 00:03:54.330
Excuse me. I am glad that I can put my
63
00:03:54.409 --> 00:03:57.939
kids in a diverse school because putting your kids in
64
00:03:58.259 --> 00:04:03.240
a non-diverse school, it puts them in situations like this
65
00:04:03.939 --> 00:04:09.699
where they are bullied, but also the administration does not
66
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:14.530
act on that bullying. I was called the N-word playing basketball,
67
00:04:15.110 --> 00:04:19.209
white guy, white kid playing basketball in the gym at
68
00:04:19.290 --> 00:04:23.800
school in Lancaster Catholic. playing basketball, and he said, get
69
00:04:23.860 --> 00:04:29.889
the F off me, you F-ing N-word.

And I hauled
70
00:04:29.990 --> 00:04:32.589
off on him, ripped the shirt off and everything, gave
71
00:04:32.629 --> 00:04:36.769
him a two, one, two, one, two jabs, and then
72
00:04:36.790 --> 00:04:40.889
they broke it up. But, yeah, the next day, and
73
00:04:40.930 --> 00:04:44.040
the thing is, I didn't get in trouble because everybody
74
00:04:44.069 --> 00:04:47.420
heard him. And the thing is, the next day, I
75
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:51.100
get called to the principal's office And he tells me,
76
00:04:51.420 --> 00:04:55.740
you know, that like this isn't a representation of our school. Again,
77
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:57.639
I was only in ninth grade. This was like the
78
00:04:57.720 --> 00:04:59.939
first month that I was there. You know, this isn't
79
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:03.319
a representation of our school. You don't need to go
80
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.360
out and tell people that this happened because we handled it.
81
00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:08.660
He should have been kicked out of school. He got
82
00:05:08.860 --> 00:05:14.779
one day in school suspension for this. And, you know,
83
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:19.970
I should have went out there. I should have. Just saying,
84
00:05:20.089 --> 00:05:23.750
just saying. But to hold that capacity at 14 years old,
85
00:05:25.050 --> 00:05:29.129
that's heavy, man. That is heavy. And putting our kids
86
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.279
in these situations because we want them to get a
87
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:35.560
better education. I understand it, but also there's a double-edged
88
00:05:35.620 --> 00:05:38.839
sword to that better education and what kind of environments
89
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:43.240
we are putting them in. Just think about it, folks,
90
00:05:43.660 --> 00:05:45.639
because that's the other side of it. You know, it's
91
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:48.930
not just a good education. Just something for you to
92
00:05:48.970 --> 00:05:51.589
chew on, something for you to ponder with. We'll have
93
00:05:51.649 --> 00:05:55.089
more microwave news after this. This is your morning experience.
94
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:03.759
Welcome back to the Morning Experience, folks. And we are
95
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:08.610
getting into the grooves of our microwave news. So our
96
00:06:08.790 --> 00:06:12.610
second microwave news story, again, comes from the Griot. We
97
00:06:12.689 --> 00:06:15.470
are going to stay with the Griot. And a 19-year-old
98
00:06:15.509 --> 00:06:19.889
is sentenced to probation after fatally shooting Michigan mall gunmen
99
00:06:19.949 --> 00:06:24.759
in self-defense. So Martinez long avoided a criminal conviction. For
100
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:27.819
the shooting itself, but the judge questioned why he brought
101
00:06:27.939 --> 00:06:31.300
a gun into the mall. So a 19-year-old Michigan man
102
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:35.220
who fatally shot an armed man during a chaotic July
103
00:06:35.300 --> 00:06:38.470
shooting at a Dearborn mall has been sentenced to two
104
00:06:38.490 --> 00:06:42.670
years of probation for carrying a concealed weapon. Martinez Long
105
00:06:42.829 --> 00:06:45.290
of Oak Park was in the Far Lane Town Center
106
00:06:45.350 --> 00:06:48.550
on July 3rd when a fight escalated into gunfire. And
107
00:06:48.589 --> 00:06:51.970
according to Fox 2 Detroit, Cameron Watkins said, shot and
108
00:06:52.009 --> 00:06:55.490
killed 19 year old Keontae Seaborn before shooting another person
109
00:06:55.550 --> 00:06:59.160
during a struggle Watkins continued firing inside the mall before
110
00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:02.300
Long intervened and fatally shot him according to prosecutors and
111
00:07:02.339 --> 00:07:05.660
while Long was not charged for killing Watkins because authorities
112
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:08.660
determined he acted in self defense in defense of others
113
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:12.720
he was charged with carrying a concealed weapon without a
114
00:07:13.180 --> 00:07:19.519
permit now my thing is is that like where's the
115
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:27.730
Kyle Rittenhouse treatment here Like, yeah, that's.
116
00:07:27.529 --> 00:07:28.350
Just what I want to know.
117
00:07:29.129 --> 00:07:33.550
Where is the Kyle? And I know that's an empty
118
00:07:33.569 --> 00:07:37.350
question to ask because I know that Kyle Rittenhouse has
119
00:07:37.410 --> 00:07:40.769
the complexion for protection. I know that. I am very
120
00:07:40.870 --> 00:07:45.269
much aware of that. But it just makes me think, like,
121
00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:48.649
where's that same kind of treatment? And for the judge
122
00:07:48.689 --> 00:07:52.129
to ask, why did you have the gun inside? And
123
00:07:52.149 --> 00:07:56.740
that is a fair question. That is a very, very,
124
00:07:56.860 --> 00:08:04.319
very much fair question. But nowadays, nowadays, why wouldn't you
125
00:08:04.370 --> 00:08:07.769
have a gun in the mall? Because something like that
126
00:08:08.290 --> 00:08:15.009
is likely to happen in America. We have a gun culture.
127
00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:19.420
I'm from, you know, central Pennsylvania. There are people that
128
00:08:19.579 --> 00:08:22.000
and this is no cap, folks. There are people that
129
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:28.899
take AK-47s into the supermarket. Why not for protection? Because
130
00:08:28.939 --> 00:08:34.929
they can. Making a political statement. And it's just weird
131
00:08:35.629 --> 00:08:38.710
and it's just wild work. But let's move on to
132
00:08:38.950 --> 00:08:42.070
our next topic. Microwave News headline. And this is our
133
00:08:42.149 --> 00:08:45.889
final Microwave News headline. And I wanted to end Microwave
134
00:08:45.950 --> 00:08:50.629
News on a happy note here. And they say that
135
00:08:50.669 --> 00:08:54.750
they're coming back, folks. Quavo confirms that Migos reunion with
136
00:08:54.929 --> 00:08:58.710
Offset for final album and tour. The two surviving members
137
00:08:58.789 --> 00:09:02.730
plan to reunite after years of tension, solo projects, and
138
00:09:02.789 --> 00:09:07.370
renewed signs of collaboration. So Quavo says he and Offset
139
00:09:07.470 --> 00:09:10.789
are bringing Migos back. for one more final album and
140
00:09:10.850 --> 00:09:13.809
a tour, marking a new chapter for the Atlanta rap
141
00:09:13.830 --> 00:09:18.100
group nearly four years after Takeoff's death. The announcement comes
142
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:21.539
after years of tension between the two surviving members, separate
143
00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:24.440
solo careers, and renewed signs that they had begun working
144
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:27.759
together again, and Quavo confirmed the planned reunion during an
145
00:09:27.899 --> 00:09:34.370
interview with Atlanta radio station V103' s DJ Greg Streep. And
146
00:09:34.389 --> 00:09:36.730
the rapper confirmed that the pair intend to make another
147
00:09:36.789 --> 00:09:39.389
Migos project and take the music on the road.
148
00:09:39.470 --> 00:09:42.070
He says, we coming back. We're going to do it
149
00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:43.740
one more time.
150
00:09:43.940 --> 00:09:48.639
And I am here for all of this. I am.
151
00:09:48.659 --> 00:09:50.879
I am a Migos fan.
152
00:09:51.460 --> 00:09:57.090
And, and yo, yo, when Takeoff died, like that, that,
153
00:09:57.429 --> 00:09:59.879
that hit me hard. That hit me hard. Not, not,
154
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:04.559
as hard as, like, Kobe. Kobe, I remember Kobe's death.
155
00:10:06.019 --> 00:10:11.049
I remember that. And it was a group chat. It
156
00:10:11.070 --> 00:10:14.769
was in a group chat, and the younger frat brothers,
157
00:10:14.830 --> 00:10:16.889
one of my younger frat brothers said, yo, Kobe died.
158
00:10:17.649 --> 00:10:21.789
And I was thinking it was a frat brother named Kobe.
159
00:10:22.549 --> 00:10:29.320
And I was like, what chapter is he from? Because
160
00:10:29.340 --> 00:10:32.840
I was trying to put a name with a face.
161
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:37.700
And he was like, no, Kobe Bryant. And I was like, what?
162
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:40.159
No, no.
163
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:43.259
We would have got alerts on our phones and everything.
164
00:10:44.809 --> 00:10:49.409
So I go to ESPN. nothing so I'm like alright
165
00:10:49.830 --> 00:10:53.090
if Kobe Bryant died then it'll be on like CNN
166
00:10:53.129 --> 00:10:55.809
go to CNN sure enough sure.
167
00:10:55.690 --> 00:10:58.490
Enough you know take off.
168
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:04.620
I was on my phone and saw the alert you
169
00:11:04.659 --> 00:11:12.980
know and just stared off stared off into the distance
170
00:11:13.019 --> 00:11:17.379
a little bit because I'm Amigos fan you know And
171
00:11:17.419 --> 00:11:21.389
it was, like, out of all of them, like, takeoff.
172
00:11:21.730 --> 00:11:24.129
And, like, you know, death would have been bad for
173
00:11:24.669 --> 00:11:25.250
any one of them.
174
00:11:25.350 --> 00:11:27.309
But, like, takeoff?
175
00:11:28.470 --> 00:11:28.809
You know?
176
00:11:29.529 --> 00:11:33.509
Like, out of all of them, takeoff? But glad to
177
00:11:33.580 --> 00:11:36.600
hear that the gang is getting back together. I'm going
178
00:11:36.620 --> 00:11:38.340
to make sure that I get my tickets.
179
00:11:39.299 --> 00:11:39.919
Yeah, yeah.
180
00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:43.700
Hula with me, folks. Migos is coming back. We got
181
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:46.830
some more news after this, man. This is your morning experience.
182
00:11:48.899 --> 00:11:53.240
Welcome back to.
183
00:11:53.139 --> 00:11:54.559
The Morning Experience, folks.
184
00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:58.000
And let's get into these headlines. I don't want to
185
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:00.419
wait and hold you up anymore because this is some
186
00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:04.899
serious stuff, man. So the Trump administration accuses Berkeley Law
187
00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:08.879
of favoring black applicants over white and Asian candidates. And
188
00:12:08.940 --> 00:12:13.019
federal officials allege the law school illegally considered race in admissions,
189
00:12:13.509 --> 00:12:17.210
a claim UC Berkeley strongly denied. So the Trump administration
190
00:12:17.230 --> 00:12:20.399
accuses is accusing the University of California Berkeley School of
191
00:12:20.460 --> 00:12:23.720
Law of favoring black applicants while discriminating against white and
192
00:12:23.860 --> 00:12:27.399
Asian candidates. And the Berkeley Law admissions probe comes three
193
00:12:27.470 --> 00:12:30.850
years after the Supreme Court restricted affirmative action in college
194
00:12:30.870 --> 00:12:35.730
admissions and amid concerns over declining black enrollment at several universities.
195
00:12:36.090 --> 00:12:39.580
The Justice and Education Departments announced the findings Wednesday after
196
00:12:39.629 --> 00:12:43.559
a joint investigation into the law school's admission practices. Federal
197
00:12:43.580 --> 00:12:47.490
officials allege Berkeley Law used race, essay prompts, and other
198
00:12:47.549 --> 00:12:51.789
methods to advance its diversity goals despite the Supreme Court's
199
00:12:51.789 --> 00:12:58.090
2023 ruling limiting race-conscious admissions. The administration said data provided
200
00:12:58.149 --> 00:13:01.590
by the school showed Black applicants had 5.8 times the
201
00:13:01.750 --> 00:13:06.370
odds of admissions as comparable to white applicants in 2025.
202
00:13:06.370 --> 00:13:09.220
Berkeley Law's enrollment data from October 2025 listed 1,128 law students,
203
00:13:09.240 --> 00:13:22.629
including 516 white students, 293 Asian students and 51 black students. Yeah, folks,
204
00:13:23.350 --> 00:13:24.090
you heard that right.
205
00:13:24.169 --> 00:13:25.840
I'll say that again.
206
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:31.139
516 white students, 293 Asian students and 51 black students.
207
00:13:32.840 --> 00:13:39.399
And
the administration is saying that this school discriminated against
208
00:13:39.830 --> 00:13:46.279
whites and Asians. This is one of the most unserious
209
00:13:46.740 --> 00:13:50.360
administrations that I have seen. Matter of fact, I'm not
210
00:13:50.379 --> 00:13:54.259
going to hold back. This is the most unserious administration
211
00:13:54.299 --> 00:13:58.720
that I have seen. And it's a shame. It's a
212
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:04.139
shame that we have to live through this. And it's
213
00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:09.159
a shame that this country only got to this point
214
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:16.350
because a black man was president. And I'm not blaming
215
00:14:16.389 --> 00:14:21.460
this on Obama. I'm blaming this on the reactors of Obama.
216
00:14:22.889 --> 00:14:27.720
That's what I'm doing. Because these people lost their minds
217
00:14:27.820 --> 00:14:33.480
so much that they wanted to pull the country so
218
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:37.120
far to the right that this doesn't happen again. This
219
00:14:37.500 --> 00:14:45.470
black man or a woman, God forbid, they're thinking... And
220
00:14:45.629 --> 00:14:48.809
now we're seeing these tactics, like with this law school,
221
00:14:49.690 --> 00:14:54.629
like with other schools, with getting rid of diversity policies,
222
00:14:54.649 --> 00:15:02.269
DEI policies, gutting the government, because those government jobs were
223
00:15:02.669 --> 00:15:06.929
a strong way for Black families to build wealth and
224
00:15:06.970 --> 00:15:11.220
middle class. And we're talking about thousands of jobs that
225
00:15:11.250 --> 00:15:14.379
they got rid of. That I don't know are coming
226
00:15:14.419 --> 00:15:18.360
back like this is a attack on black life and
227
00:15:19.100 --> 00:15:23.730
they're doing it on both sides. They're doing it in
228
00:15:23.870 --> 00:15:28.490
professions like this before you can even get into the
229
00:15:28.529 --> 00:15:31.070
profession and they're doing it while you're in the profession
230
00:15:31.590 --> 00:15:36.230
with those government jobs that they cut. This is dastardly.
231
00:15:37.190 --> 00:15:41.799
This is diabolical. And, and, and I am hoping, I
232
00:15:41.860 --> 00:15:46.409
am hoping that, you know, when November comes, we can
233
00:15:46.450 --> 00:15:49.309
get some balance. But the thing is, is that like,
234
00:15:50.509 --> 00:15:52.830
you just can't vote this stuff out. Like you have
235
00:15:52.889 --> 00:15:59.360
to have to fight going to have to fight. And no,
236
00:15:59.379 --> 00:16:02.379
I don't mean physical fight with gloves or anything, but
237
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:06.600
I mean, showing up, putting your body in places like
238
00:16:06.659 --> 00:16:11.409
protesting and, And making the powers that be bend to
239
00:16:11.429 --> 00:16:16.580
the will of the people. Yeah. So our second.
240
00:16:16.519 --> 00:16:19.860
Headline comes from the griot.com.
241
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:26.950
And get this, because as the administration is investigating UC Berkeley,
242
00:16:27.389 --> 00:16:31.519
get this, all right, Philadelphia Charter School, former CEO, agreed
243
00:16:31.570 --> 00:16:36.809
to pay nearly $ 4 million over alleged discrimination against Black applicants.
244
00:16:36.909 --> 00:16:41.850
And the Justice Department says Franklin Town manipulated a 2023
245
00:16:41.850 --> 00:16:46.620
admissions lottery to reduce Black applicant chances of admission.
246
00:16:46.820 --> 00:16:47.879
And this is real.
247
00:16:49.179 --> 00:16:52.779
This is real. So Franklin Town Charter School in Philadelphia
248
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:56.000
and its former CEO have agreed to pay nearly $ 4
249
00:16:55.700 --> 00:16:59.389
million to resolve federal claims that the school discriminated against
250
00:16:59.470 --> 00:17:04.009
Black applicants during its admission process. The Franklintown settlement comes
251
00:17:04.069 --> 00:17:07.559
amid renewed questions about federal civil rights enforcement in schools
252
00:17:07.660 --> 00:17:11.720
and charter school oversight. The Justice Department announced Friday that
253
00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:15.380
the charter school and its former CEO, Joseph Venditti, will
254
00:17:15.420 --> 00:17:20.269
separately pay a combined $ 3. 9 million to resolve allegations that
255
00:17:20.329 --> 00:17:23.529
they violated the False Claims Act by discriminating against Black
256
00:17:23.650 --> 00:17:29.809
applicants during a January 2023 admissions lottery. federal officials contend
257
00:17:29.829 --> 00:17:33.269
that the school, acting through or at the direction of Venditti,
258
00:17:33.869 --> 00:17:37.390
manipulated what was supposed to be a random lottery to
259
00:17:37.450 --> 00:17:41.009
reduce the chances that Black applicants would be admitted. Franklin
260
00:17:41.049 --> 00:17:45.710
Town was receiving federal education grant funding at the time.
261
00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:50.279
Under the agreement, Franklin Town will pay $ 3 million, while
262
00:17:50.400 --> 00:18:00.039
Venditti will pay $ 275, 000. And so, like, as this whole
263
00:18:00.150 --> 00:18:03.680
UC Berkeley thing is fake because you heard those numbers,
264
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:08.920
516 white students to 51 black students. Like here's some
265
00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:14.670
stuff that is really going on. And these families, they
266
00:18:14.750 --> 00:18:19.490
are entering this lottery to better themselves. And the most
267
00:18:19.670 --> 00:18:23.490
egregious thing to think about here is we would be
268
00:18:23.690 --> 00:18:28.049
remissed We would be naive to think that this was
269
00:18:28.089 --> 00:18:30.849
the only one. These were the only people that were
270
00:18:30.869 --> 00:18:35.089
dumb enough to get caught. Just think about it. Just
271
00:18:35.170 --> 00:18:37.130
think about it. You know, just trying to get a
272
00:18:37.150 --> 00:18:40.630
better education, man. Just trying to get a better education.
273
00:18:40.690 --> 00:18:43.390
And then when you get into situations like this, you
274
00:18:43.450 --> 00:18:47.759
still have to deal with racist bullying. It's like, man,
275
00:18:48.220 --> 00:18:54.460
being black in America sometimes is exhausting, y'all. We'll be
276
00:18:54.500 --> 00:19:07.130
right back with more. This is your morning experience. All right, y'all,
277
00:19:07.170 --> 00:19:10.130
welcome back to the morning experience. Thank you for joining me.
278
00:19:10.230 --> 00:19:14.299
So we are wrapping up our our headlines here. So
279
00:19:14.859 --> 00:19:19.339
our final headline, a Maryland resident sued ICE over alleged
280
00:19:19.559 --> 00:19:24.259
warrantless arrest. And the proposed class action lawsuit alleges immigration
281
00:19:24.339 --> 00:19:28.079
officers have arrested thousands of people without warrants or the
282
00:19:28.119 --> 00:19:32.099
probable cause required under federal law. And for Maryland residents
283
00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:35.329
and the immigrant rights group, we are Casa have filed
284
00:19:35.349 --> 00:19:39.710
a proposed federal class action lawsuit seeking to stop alleged
285
00:19:39.789 --> 00:19:42.150
warrantless immigration arrest by ice.
286
00:19:42.190 --> 00:19:45.630
The lawsuit comes, um, as, as.
287
00:19:45.630 --> 00:19:49.730
Many outlets has reported a surge in street arrests affecting
288
00:19:49.809 --> 00:19:54.660
black immigrants and a recent maryland airport detention involving johns
289
00:19:54.700 --> 00:19:59.740
hopkins researcher fatima amika um so federal law permits an
290
00:19:59.779 --> 00:20:03.029
immigration arrest without a warrant only when an officer has
291
00:20:03.089 --> 00:20:05.690
probable cause to believe a person is in the country
292
00:20:05.789 --> 00:20:09.130
unlawfully and is likely to escape before a warrant can
293
00:20:09.210 --> 00:20:12.950
be obtained. The lawsuit alleges ICE agents in Maryland have
294
00:20:12.970 --> 00:20:18.789
routinely skipped those determinations. The complaint says that nearly 7,000
295
00:20:18.789 --> 00:20:23.099
arrests have been made under the challenge practice since January
296
00:20:23.119 --> 00:20:27.539
of 2025. Complaintants accuse agents of following work trucks in
297
00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:33.900
unmarked vehicles, boxing in cars, smashing windows, and detaining people
298
00:20:33.940 --> 00:20:38.039
without first establishing who they are or whether they pose
299
00:20:38.279 --> 00:20:43.869
a flight risk. And I just hope, I just hope,
300
00:20:44.430 --> 00:20:48.630
because I do feel as though that there will be,
301
00:20:48.849 --> 00:20:52.170
much like there were Nazi trials and everything, I do
302
00:20:52.789 --> 00:20:54.869
feel as though that there are going to be these
303
00:20:55.049 --> 00:21:01.750
ICE tribes. And these men and women, these men and
304
00:21:01.809 --> 00:21:05.309
women that are doing this,
they will have their day
305
00:21:05.329 --> 00:21:05.670
in court.
306
00:21:06.910 --> 00:21:08.690
For wreaking this kind of havoc.
307
00:21:09.369 --> 00:21:16.029
In this country. Taking working people. Working people.
308
00:21:17.130 --> 00:21:19.039
And just upending their lives.
309
00:21:19.460 --> 00:21:24.920
For sport. Because you're not doing this for protection. Like
310
00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:29.740
that Johns Hopkins researcher. That PhD wasn't no threat.
311
00:21:30.819 --> 00:21:35.890
You're doing this for sport. You're hunting people down.
312
00:21:36.390 --> 00:21:40.569
Because they look different, because they talk different, and you
313
00:21:40.650 --> 00:21:45.039
are upending their lives and subjecting them to the worst
314
00:21:45.099 --> 00:21:49.200
possible conditions, whether it be for a few weeks, whether
315
00:21:49.220 --> 00:21:52.220
it be for a few months, but you are inconveniencing
316
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:58.380
these people and upending their lives, giving them lifelong trauma,
317
00:21:58.440 --> 00:22:06.309
lifelong PTSD. For what? For sport. Because I thought this
318
00:22:07.029 --> 00:22:09.670
big budget given to ICE and everything is supposed to
319
00:22:09.750 --> 00:22:18.099
take down the most egregious of the illegal immigrants coming in.
320
00:22:20.700 --> 00:22:26.960
And now you're coming after families. Ripping families apart. And
321
00:22:27.059 --> 00:22:28.940
detaining family members.
322
00:22:30.980 --> 00:22:31.299
Yeah.
323
00:22:31.579 --> 00:22:35.059
Yeah, y'all. Yeah. When the trials come, When the trials come,
324
00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:37.880
I am going to be sitting front and center.
325
00:22:38.819 --> 00:22:39.160
I am.
326
00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:44.920
And you all will get the reports up close and personal,
327
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:48.329
the names and faces of these officers, because when they
328
00:22:48.420 --> 00:22:52.009
are exposed, I will be there to help expose it.
329
00:22:52.569 --> 00:22:56.690
Because their day of reckoning is coming. We got more
330
00:22:56.789 --> 00:22:58.069
news after this, folks.
331
00:22:58.430 --> 00:23:00.609
This is your morning experience.
332
00:23:05.640 --> 00:23:09.180
All right, so folks, our main story for today is
333
00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:13.079
an interesting one. All right, so a surrogate asks Supreme
334
00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:18.160
Court to intervene in a custody battle over medically fragile newborns.
335
00:23:18.220 --> 00:23:22.710
So McKenna West is challenging rulings recognizing a California couple
336
00:23:22.910 --> 00:23:26.309
as the child's legal parents after she refused their request
337
00:23:26.329 --> 00:23:30.390
to end the pregnancy. So an Alaska surrogate has taken
338
00:23:30.549 --> 00:23:34.269
a bitter custody dispute involving a medically fragile newborn woman
339
00:23:34.650 --> 00:23:37.190
to the U.S. Supreme Court arguing that she should be
340
00:23:37.250 --> 00:23:40.230
allowed to have a say in the child's care after
341
00:23:40.289 --> 00:23:44.309
refusing the California's couple's request to terminate the pregnancy. And
342
00:23:44.349 --> 00:23:48.880
according to CNN, McKenna West filed an emergency application asking
343
00:23:48.900 --> 00:23:52.299
the Supreme Court to halt the California ruling that recognizes
344
00:23:52.500 --> 00:23:56.859
Omar Ahmed and Nasheen Gilkar as the child's legal parents.
345
00:23:57.869 --> 00:24:00.920
The Texas Tribune reported that the filing came after a
346
00:24:00.950 --> 00:24:04.660
Dallas judge rejected West's effort to obtain custody of the baby,
347
00:24:05.160 --> 00:24:09.640
whom West calls Gabrielle, while the couple calls him Rumi.
348
00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:14.920
The baby was born August 12th in Dallas with hypoplastic
349
00:24:14.980 --> 00:24:19.690
left heart syndrome, a serious congenital condition in which the
350
00:24:19.750 --> 00:24:23.539
left side of the heart is underdeveloped. Court developments say
351
00:24:23.559 --> 00:24:26.440
the condition can be treated with a series of major procedures,
352
00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:31.180
including the Norwood operation and subsequent surgeries. The dispute began
353
00:24:31.220 --> 00:24:35.480
during West's pregnancy after the diagnosis, and according to court filings,
354
00:24:35.559 --> 00:24:39.359
the intended parents asked West to end the pregnancy while
355
00:24:39.420 --> 00:24:42.680
West opposed an abortion and ultimately traveled from Alaska to
356
00:24:42.740 --> 00:24:45.130
Texas before giving birth.
357
00:24:45.630 --> 00:24:48.210
So West now argues that the couple could choose.
358
00:24:47.990 --> 00:24:53.630
Hospice care, rather than further potentially life-saving treatment. And that
359
00:24:53.710 --> 00:24:56.289
is an allegation made in her Supreme Court filing, not
360
00:24:56.369 --> 00:25:00.289
a confirmed decision by Ahmed and Gilcourt. Their attorneys have
361
00:25:00.309 --> 00:25:04.220
previously maintained that West breached the surrogacy agreement and have
362
00:25:04.259 --> 00:25:07.359
sought to prevent her from seeing or making decisions for
363
00:25:07.420 --> 00:25:07.920
the child.
364
00:25:08.019 --> 00:25:08.900
Like, yo.
365
00:25:10.579 --> 00:25:14.880
Yo. Like, I get the whole, you know, my body,
366
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:18.910
my choice and everything, but there is a legal agreement
367
00:25:20.640 --> 00:25:24.869
And if we say, you know, get rid of the child,
368
00:25:24.970 --> 00:25:27.450
then get rid of the child. Who are you to
369
00:25:27.529 --> 00:25:31.930
say no? Like you are you are the cattle here.
370
00:25:32.710 --> 00:25:35.359
And I hate to put it like that, but you
371
00:25:35.380 --> 00:25:39.900
definitely are. Like you are you are the product here
372
00:25:39.980 --> 00:25:42.519
and you're getting paid very well. May I ask that?
373
00:25:44.730 --> 00:25:48.269
May I add that? Excuse me.
getting paid very well
374
00:25:48.309 --> 00:25:54.789
Sarah gets paid get paid very well yeah yeah and and.
375
00:25:54.750 --> 00:25:59.930
This just this just screams to me privilege screams to
376
00:25:59.970 --> 00:26:04.529
me because she didn't believe that you should terminate the
377
00:26:04.549 --> 00:26:07.549
child like it just oh it just screams to me
378
00:26:08.109 --> 00:26:12.910
privilege and now she's making this a bigger issue.
379
00:26:14.630 --> 00:26:17.430
Because now the kid is going to require all this
380
00:26:17.490 --> 00:26:20.049
surgery and everything and and the parents don't want to
381
00:26:20.089 --> 00:26:24.579
pay that and had you had the abortion when they
382
00:26:24.660 --> 00:26:29.099
said this part wouldn't this is this is oh my
383
00:26:29.220 --> 00:26:34.839
gosh this is this is the ugly side of surrogacy
384
00:26:35.900 --> 00:26:39.289
this is the ugly side of surrogacy so folks As
385
00:26:39.329 --> 00:26:41.349
you know, with a lot of these stories, we do
386
00:26:41.410 --> 00:26:44.059
follow ups with it. So I will keep my finger
387
00:26:44.230 --> 00:26:47.920
on the pulse of this story because this is just fascinating.
388
00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:52.319
I cannot believe that this is happening. Yeah, we got more.
389
00:26:53.039 --> 00:27:03.309
It's Wednesday's word coming up, folks. This is your morning experience. Folks,
390
00:27:03.329 --> 00:27:07.670
welcome back to The Morning Experience, and it's Wednesday, so
391
00:27:07.710 --> 00:27:09.670
you know that we have to give.
392
00:27:09.490 --> 00:27:11.769
You Wednesday's word.
393
00:27:11.869 --> 00:27:16.740
So Wednesday's word, today's word is anyway. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
394
00:27:16.779 --> 00:27:17.920
you heard me, beloved.
395
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:19.240
That's right, anyway.
396
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:23.539
Because life is not always going to be easy. We
397
00:27:23.619 --> 00:27:26.400
all know that. You know, some mornings you wake up
398
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:30.890
already carrying yesterday's worries. Some days the bills are waiting,
399
00:27:30.930 --> 00:27:34.289
the responsibilities are calling, your body is tired and your
400
00:27:34.349 --> 00:27:37.809
mind is asking, how much longer can I keep doing this?
401
00:27:38.450 --> 00:27:41.470
And the answer is you can do it and you
402
00:27:41.490 --> 00:27:44.410
can do it anyway. Not because it's easy, not because
403
00:27:44.450 --> 00:27:45.470
you have had.
404
00:27:45.289 --> 00:27:49.289
No problems, not because you're never afraid, discouraged or overwhelmed.
405
00:27:49.690 --> 00:27:51.829
You can do it because every single day you have
406
00:27:51.869 --> 00:27:54.549
a choice about what you will do with the strength
407
00:27:54.589 --> 00:27:58.039
you have. And maybe you don't have enough energy to
408
00:27:58.099 --> 00:28:00.859
conquer the whole mountain today, and that's okay.
409
00:28:01.460 --> 00:28:03.000
Just take
the next step anyway.
410
00:28:03.700 --> 00:28:06.660
Maybe you don't feel confident enough to start that business,
411
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:10.740
apply for that opportunity, have that conversation, or pursue that dream.
412
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:12.059
Start anyway.
413
00:28:12.849 --> 00:28:15.250
Maybe you've tried before and it didn't work out.
414
00:28:15.369 --> 00:28:18.390
Maybe you fell short. Maybe somebody told you that you
415
00:28:18.430 --> 00:28:21.569
couldn't do it. Well, beloved, learn what you need to
416
00:28:21.630 --> 00:28:25.880
learn and get back up and try again anyway. Now,
417
00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:28.980
let's be clear. Doing it anyway does not mean ignoring
418
00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:32.500
your pain. It does not mean pretending everything is perfect,
419
00:28:32.599 --> 00:28:35.619
and it does not mean you can't rest. It does
420
00:28:35.660 --> 00:28:38.609
not mean you can't ask for help, change direction, or
421
00:28:38.750 --> 00:28:40.089
admit that something is hard.
422
00:28:40.589 --> 00:28:43.650
It means that hardship does not get the final word.
423
00:28:44.329 --> 00:28:47.150
It means you can acknowledge that you're tired and still
424
00:28:47.190 --> 00:28:51.009
believe you're capable. You can be afraid and still move forward.
425
00:28:51.470 --> 00:28:54.269
You can have questions and still take actions. You can
426
00:28:54.309 --> 00:28:57.690
feel uncertain and still trust that one step can lead
427
00:28:57.750 --> 00:29:01.849
to another. You see, sometimes we wait until we feel ready.
428
00:29:01.930 --> 00:29:03.809
We wait until the timing is perfect.
429
00:29:03.849 --> 00:29:05.809
We wait until we have more money.
430
00:29:05.910 --> 00:29:09.809
More support, more confidence, more time, or a guarantee that
431
00:29:10.009 --> 00:29:11.539
everything will work out.
432
00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:12.980
But the truth is, beloved.
433
00:29:13.630 --> 00:29:17.839
Most meaningful things in life begin before we feel completely ready.
434
00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:25.299
The parent keeps going anyway. The student studies anyway the
435
00:29:25.339 --> 00:29:31.400
survivor rebuilds anyway the dreamer starts again anyway the person
436
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:36.730
who has been disappointed chooses to hope again anyway and
437
00:29:36.769 --> 00:29:40.509
that's where the power lives not in having a perfect path,
438
00:29:40.930 --> 00:29:44.829
but in refusing to abandon yourself when the path gets difficult.
439
00:29:45.710 --> 00:29:47.930
So this morning, I want you to think about one
440
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:51.079
thing you've been putting off because it feels too hard.
441
00:29:51.710 --> 00:29:55.579
Don't focus on the entire journey. Focus on today, beloved.
442
00:29:56.740 --> 00:30:00.470
What is one phone call you can make? one page
443
00:30:00.490 --> 00:30:04.170
you can write, one application you can submit, one apology
444
00:30:04.849 --> 00:30:07.970
you can offer, one healthy decision that you can make today,
445
00:30:08.299 --> 00:30:11.039
one small promise to yourself that you can.
446
00:30:10.940 --> 00:30:15.319
Keep and start right there. You do not have to
447
00:30:15.380 --> 00:30:16.759
do everything today.
448
00:30:16.799 --> 00:30:19.559
You only have to do something that moves you closer
449
00:30:20.039 --> 00:30:22.440
to the life you say you want.
450
00:30:23.869 --> 00:30:24.890
And if all you can.
451
00:30:24.829 --> 00:30:26.910
Do is get up, get dressed, take care of your
452
00:30:26.930 --> 00:30:30.690
responsibilities and keep your heart open, then that's still progress.
453
00:30:31.490 --> 00:30:37.190
Give yourself credit for the battles nobody else sees. Give
454
00:30:37.230 --> 00:30:41.359
yourself grace for the days when progress looks small. And remember,
455
00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:46.359
small steps taken consistently can carry you further than one
456
00:30:46.480 --> 00:30:50.359
giant step taken once. And I'll say that again.
457
00:30:51.180 --> 00:30:56.569
Small steps taken consistently can carry you further than one
458
00:30:56.619 --> 00:31:01.329
giant step taken once. So this Wednesday, don't let the
459
00:31:01.390 --> 00:31:05.529
difficulty convince you that the dream is impossible. Don't let
460
00:31:05.730 --> 00:31:08.650
one delay make you believe it's over. Don't let one
461
00:31:08.710 --> 00:31:13.069
failure become your identity. It ain't easy, but you can
462
00:31:13.150 --> 00:31:14.690
do it anyway.
463
00:31:15.430 --> 00:31:18.390
You can keep believing anyway. You can keep working anyway.
464
00:31:18.430 --> 00:31:21.490
You can keep healing anyway. You can keep showing up anyway.
465
00:31:21.650 --> 00:31:25.609
And one day, you'll look back and realize that the
466
00:31:25.670 --> 00:31:29.650
moments you thought would break you We're actually building you.
467
00:31:30.390 --> 00:31:33.339
So beloved, lift your head, straighten your shoulders, take a
468
00:31:33.380 --> 00:31:36.799
deep breath and walk into this day with courage because
469
00:31:36.839 --> 00:31:42.819
whatever comes your way, meet it with faith, patience and determination.
470
00:31:43.700 --> 00:31:47.390
It ain't easy, but you can do it anyway. Now
471
00:31:47.450 --> 00:31:57.799
have a powerful, peaceful and winning Wednesday. Welcome back to
472
00:31:57.819 --> 00:32:00.779
the Morning Experience, folks, and happy hump day to you.
473
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:05.000
Thank you for joining us on this Wednesday. Like, yo,
474
00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:08.480
we are on the second half of.
475
00:32:09.859 --> 00:32:10.400
September.
476
00:32:10.579 --> 00:32:13.849
Like, however you look at it, we are heading into winter.
477
00:32:13.910 --> 00:32:16.609
Winter is coming. So.
478
00:32:18.750 --> 00:32:20.869
I know some people are like, shut up, Marquise.
479
00:32:21.150 --> 00:32:23.650
I will. I will shut up because I hate winter.
480
00:32:24.329 --> 00:32:25.829
So, folks.
481
00:32:26.470 --> 00:32:29.119
Um, uh, we are about to do, look at this,
482
00:32:29.400 --> 00:32:32.579
where we scour the internets and, and we bring these
483
00:32:32.660 --> 00:32:36.700
videos to your attention. So folks, team, if you could
484
00:32:36.720 --> 00:32:38.619
do me a favor and take a look at this.
485
00:32:41.500 --> 00:32:45.680
It don't mean that I couldn't whoop y'all asses just
486
00:32:45.700 --> 00:32:48.390
because I smile. It don't mean that this nigga's not
487
00:32:48.430 --> 00:32:50.930
a savage. I hate that what I feel like on
488
00:32:50.970 --> 00:32:53.640
the inside doesn't match the outside. If they want to
489
00:32:53.720 --> 00:32:56.160
find out, you can catch me outside. My look on
490
00:32:56.180 --> 00:32:59.880
the outside doesn't show my inside anger. It's like I'm transgender,
491
00:32:59.900 --> 00:33:01.500
but instead I'm transgangster.
492
00:33:01.539 --> 00:33:01.779
Wait.
493
00:33:06.529 --> 00:33:07.759
I'm not trans. I just want to clear that up.
494
00:33:07.769 --> 00:33:08.309
I'm not trans.
495
00:33:08.329 --> 00:33:11.750
I'm just saying, though, on the inside doesn't feel the
496
00:33:11.769 --> 00:33:18.549
same as the outside, so I get it. I get
497
00:33:18.589 --> 00:33:21.109
this nerdy look makes you all comfortable. But just know
498
00:33:21.170 --> 00:33:24.769
I could take a chick if I wanted to. Luckily,
499
00:33:25.029 --> 00:33:25.829
I don't want to.
500
00:33:26.470 --> 00:33:28.650
Sleeping on me because I look just like a huggstable.
501
00:33:29.589 --> 00:33:32.049
Just because of my demeanor don't mean that I can't
502
00:33:32.069 --> 00:33:33.049
get any meaner.
503
00:33:33.109 --> 00:33:36.460
Singing, but I got swag too, like Justin Bieber. I
504
00:33:36.500 --> 00:33:38.259
know I'm young, but I'm no rookie.
505
00:33:38.400 --> 00:33:41.000
Like Pac said, I ain't a killer, but don't push me.
506
00:33:41.039 --> 00:33:45.319
I'm a gangster on the inside. No one believes me
507
00:33:45.339 --> 00:33:48.809
when I say this. So, folks, we took a look
508
00:33:49.109 --> 00:33:51.130
at this. Felix, your thoughts here, man.
509
00:33:51.829 --> 00:33:53.890
I love it. I love it. I love how he
510
00:33:53.990 --> 00:33:54.450
flipped it.
511
00:33:56.250 --> 00:34:00.470
I love that he took what people were obviously thinking
512
00:34:00.750 --> 00:34:03.240
when they saw him and used it.
513
00:34:04.220 --> 00:34:06.769
And it's a good shtick. as they say.
514
00:34:07.009 --> 00:34:07.569
So yeah.
515
00:34:08.230 --> 00:34:09.949
And it was, and it's funny. He's good at it.
516
00:34:10.070 --> 00:34:10.980
So yeah, I loved it.
517
00:34:12.179 --> 00:34:12.320
Ms.
518
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:12.820
April H.
519
00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:14.619
Absolutely.
520
00:34:14.659 --> 00:34:16.659
He was given like triple threat. He was funny.
521
00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:19.119
He could sing, he could play the
piano. And I
522
00:34:19.199 --> 00:34:21.440
also relate it because I wear glasses and I feel
523
00:34:21.460 --> 00:34:25.239
like I do think that people have different perceptions of
524
00:34:25.300 --> 00:34:27.579
me when I wear my glasses versus when I don't.
525
00:34:27.699 --> 00:34:29.010
So yes.
526
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:34.690
It's inspirational. All right, all right, all right. Well, we
527
00:34:34.730 --> 00:34:39.369
have another one. So, America, if you can do me
528
00:34:39.429 --> 00:34:41.969
a favor and take a look at this.
529
00:34:42.360 --> 00:34:43.940
You go walk by him right now, he's going to
530
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:45.659
give you the most inspirational quote you ever heard in
531
00:34:45.679 --> 00:34:46.099
your life.
532
00:34:46.400 --> 00:34:48.239
He's just one of those guys. I call him the prophet.
533
00:34:48.260 --> 00:34:50.820
That's what we call him in my household. It's the
534
00:34:50.900 --> 00:34:52.780
best day because it's today. Even though the sun's out,
535
00:34:52.820 --> 00:34:54.789
we still got to be delighted. Remember you're the gift
536
00:34:54.809 --> 00:34:55.349
to the world.
537
00:34:55.789 --> 00:34:58.610
Your success ain't defined by your achievements, but by your
538
00:34:58.630 --> 00:34:59.550
obedience to God.
539
00:34:59.789 --> 00:35:02.190
You don't need a spotlight to impact the room. A
540
00:35:02.230 --> 00:35:04.769
poor praise for an easier road. Wise men pray for
541
00:35:04.789 --> 00:35:07.190
strong legs. And you lighten this world.
542
00:35:06.969 --> 00:35:08.960
With the sun just out so you can see the impact.
543
00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:10.880
Let nobody tell you it's got a limit if it's
544
00:35:10.960 --> 00:35:13.260
looking for something more. And we're called to hear God
545
00:35:13.320 --> 00:35:15.659
and express it to our people. You matter to the world.
546
00:35:16.039 --> 00:35:17.880
We are called to live in the pursuit of perfection
547
00:35:18.239 --> 00:35:20.000
and never to be perfect. We're bound to catch exits.
548
00:35:20.500 --> 00:35:28.619
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift.
549
00:35:29.179 --> 00:35:30.550
Man, listen, listen.
550
00:35:30.619 --> 00:35:37.849
That kind of, I don't know, attitude, that kind of energy,
551
00:35:38.210 --> 00:35:40.269
you know, that's the kind of teammate that you want, Felix.
552
00:35:40.969 --> 00:35:41.769
Yes, it is.
553
00:35:42.170 --> 00:35:46.090
I will admit, I would probably... get a little tired
554
00:35:46.159 --> 00:35:47.090
of it every day.
555
00:35:49.510 --> 00:35:53.530
But i would be like all right man i get
556
00:35:53.650 --> 00:35:56.829
it but i love it thank you i'm.
557
00:35:56.730 --> 00:36:04.849
Just saying oh uh miss april h he's talking in parables.
558
00:36:04.929 --> 00:36:08.670
Is he jesus Ten points for honesty, Felix. Ten points
559
00:36:08.690 --> 00:36:09.230
for honesty.
560
00:36:09.250 --> 00:36:12.050
But I also feel like I would walk by him
561
00:36:12.150 --> 00:36:14.769
every day just because I have that expectation.
562
00:36:14.809 --> 00:36:16.530
Like, what he going to say today? You know, he
563
00:36:16.570 --> 00:36:19.369
just was always ready. And I respect the person that's
564
00:36:19.389 --> 00:36:19.889
always ready.
565
00:36:19.929 --> 00:36:20.309
So, yeah.
566
00:36:21.110 --> 00:36:21.530
Yo.
567
00:36:21.750 --> 00:36:24.909
Oh, I just want to know, like, do you just
568
00:36:24.969 --> 00:36:29.570
come up with this off the fly? Or, like, do you, like,
569
00:36:29.929 --> 00:36:33.130
wake up? and be like, oh, man, I'm going to
570
00:36:33.150 --> 00:36:34.170
kill him with this today.
571
00:36:34.190 --> 00:36:37.050
Like a stoop. You know what I mean? Like you
572
00:36:37.070 --> 00:36:38.590
put on your quote, like you put on a suit.
573
00:36:38.639 --> 00:36:40.840
Like, oh, this is about to kill him today.
574
00:36:41.639 --> 00:36:43.760
Oh!
575
00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:47.320
He's got one of those pull-away stickies that reveal a
576
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:48.369
new quote every day.
577
00:36:48.380 --> 00:36:49.619
He's like, I'm going to hit him with this one.
578
00:36:49.699 --> 00:36:51.059
This is the one I'm going to hit him with.
579
00:36:51.079 --> 00:36:52.900
I'm going to put my own flavor on it. I'm
580
00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:53.710
going to hit him with it.
581
00:36:56.650 --> 00:36:59.280
Yo, yo, I guarantee you, I guarantee you, he has
582
00:37:00.099 --> 00:37:02.679
a go-to motivational quote for dates as well.
583
00:37:03.039 --> 00:37:05.480
Like, at the end of every date, you know, one
584
00:37:05.519 --> 00:37:08.460
time is one time, but two is better. Let's do
585
00:37:08.480 --> 00:37:09.320
this again, baby.
586
00:37:11.199 --> 00:37:12.920
I feel like you've used that in your personal life.
587
00:37:12.940 --> 00:37:13.400
I don't know.
588
00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:14.420
No, I just made this up.
589
00:37:14.420 --> 00:37:15.579
That was too smooth. Really?
590
00:37:15.659 --> 00:37:16.360
It was too smooth.
591
00:37:17.059 --> 00:37:20.179
Oh, my gosh.
592
00:37:20.469 --> 00:37:21.429
That's an insult.
593
00:37:21.489 --> 00:37:24.070
Let me take back that laugh.
594
00:37:24.110 --> 00:37:26.030
I need to snatch back that laugh. That is an insult.
595
00:37:26.500 --> 00:37:30.619
Yes, yes, I am that smooth. Yes, I am America. Yes,
596
00:37:30.699 --> 00:37:32.289
I am America. Off the top.
597
00:37:32.309 --> 00:37:34.989
Oh, that was an insult.
598
00:37:35.789 --> 00:37:43.449
Like, yo, that was like a backhanded compliment. Again, it
599
00:37:43.489 --> 00:37:46.190
be your own people, America. It be your own people.
600
00:37:46.329 --> 00:37:47.510
With friends like these.
601
00:37:48.210 --> 00:37:49.730
Who needs enemies?
602
00:37:49.809 --> 00:37:50.570
You got me.
603
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:53.340
You cut me deep.
604
00:37:53.780 --> 00:37:58.340
Oh, folks,
this is your morning experience. We'll be back
605
00:37:58.699 --> 00:38:00.929
with more shenanigans after this.
606
00:38:03.510 --> 00:38:07.889
Welcome back to the morning experience, folks. And we are
607
00:38:07.949 --> 00:38:10.469
just cutting up, having a good time.
608
00:38:10.889 --> 00:38:12.179
Cutting up. Cutting up.
609
00:38:12.639 --> 00:38:13.070
Cutting up.
610
00:38:13.519 --> 00:38:13.860
Cut it.
611
00:38:14.380 --> 00:38:14.739
Cutting up.
612
00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:16.039
All right, so.
613
00:38:16.099 --> 00:38:18.840
What was that? Was that from the dome as well,
614
00:38:18.860 --> 00:38:20.739
or is that a real song?
615
00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:21.699
You know, cut it.
616
00:38:22.260 --> 00:38:22.570
Cut it.
617
00:38:23.099 --> 00:38:26.260
Cut it. You know.
618
00:38:26.300 --> 00:38:27.289
You need to cut it.
619
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:27.780
All right.
620
00:38:27.940 --> 00:38:28.280
All right.
621
00:38:31.059 --> 00:38:34.079
So, folks, we are about to play One Gotta Go.
622
00:38:34.579 --> 00:38:37.139
And both my teammates looking at me like, you the
623
00:38:37.219 --> 00:38:40.199
one that gotta go.
624
00:38:43.039 --> 00:38:46.199
Before I get kicked out of this, Miss April H.,
625
00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:49.050
we will begin with you. One gotta go.
626
00:38:49.710 --> 00:38:53.969
Sneakers boots slides or dress shoes one gotta go what you.

00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:16.039
Press shoes.
633
00:39:16.280 --> 00:39:17.980
I was not expecting that.
634
00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:20.739
Felix, summer, fall, winter.
635
00:39:20.840 --> 00:39:31.280
Or spring? One gotta go winter oh all right miss
636
00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:35.340

Horror outdoor horror gone What?
639
00:39:40.130 --> 00:39:41.469
Wait, wait. I'm a punk.
640
00:39:41.699 --> 00:39:42.429
I'm a punk.
641
00:39:44.260 --> 00:39:49.019
I'm a punk. Horror. Oh, man.
642
00:39:49.380 --> 00:39:51.320
So then you would get rid of all the classics?
643
00:39:52.380 --> 00:39:56.539
All the Michael Myers, Freddie Myers. I was about to
644
00:39:56.559 --> 00:39:57.280
say Freddie Myers.
645
00:39:57.719 --> 00:39:58.639
Freddie Jackson.
646
00:40:01.599 --> 00:40:03.159
Almost called him that. But you would get rid of
647
00:40:03.300 --> 00:40:05.280
all of that? Wow.
648
00:40:05.380 --> 00:40:05.599
Wow.
649
00:40:05.699 --> 00:40:10.789
Felix, I'm going to ask you the same question then, Felix. Comedy, action, horror,
650
00:40:10.809 -->
00:40:16.460
or romance? One gotta go. If one has to go, no.
651
00:40:17.860 --> 00:40:18.980
Mm-hmm.
652
00:40:19.199 --> 00:40:19.440
Yep.
653
00:40:19.539 --> 00:40:20.599
Yep, yep.
654
00:40:20.780 --> 00:40:21.679
Go on.
655
00:40:21.739 --> 00:40:22.679
I want to say romance.
656
00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:24.059
I knew.
657
00:40:27.320 --> 00:40:27.400
It.
658
00:40:27.460 --> 00:40:28.519
If one has to go.
659
00:40:29.679 --> 00:40:31.130
If it has to go.
660
00:40:31.170 --> 00:40:32.110
No Love Jones.
661
00:40:32.489 --> 00:40:33.030
None of that.
662
00:40:33.150 --> 00:40:33.989
We're not doing that.
663
00:40:36.329 --> 00:40:40.280
I'm just saying if we have action and comedy. First
664
00:40:40.440 --> 00:40:43.579
of all, if we have comedy, then romance can slide
665
00:40:43.619 --> 00:40:48.510
in there easily. You can't have a romantic movie with comedy.
666
00:40:48.530 --> 00:40:50.530
It doesn't work. You can have a comedy movie with
667
00:40:50.550 --> 00:40:52.590
some romance, but you can't have a romantic comedy with comedy.
668
00:40:52.610 --> 00:40:53.269
That's cheesy.
669
00:40:53.650 --> 00:40:57.190
So comedy succeeds.
670
00:40:56.610 --> 00:40:57.869
And takes the romance.
671
00:40:58.429 --> 00:41:02.489
Therefore, we eliminate romance altogether, and everyone's happy.
672
00:41:02.510 --> 00:41:04.809
Look at that. I just did it.
673
00:41:04.809 --> 00:41:06.670
I just solved the equation.
674
00:41:06.710 --> 00:41:08.110
That is a reach.
675
00:41:09.420 --> 00:41:13.829
That is a foul. There's literally rom-coms.
676
00:41:13.849 --> 00:41:16.190
There's literally romance comedy. That's a whole genre.
677
00:41:16.230 --> 00:41:19.349
Yeah, but they're not really. Those are so watered down now.
678
00:41:19.590 --> 00:41:23.429
It's a horrible combination. Oh, man.
679
00:41:23.510 --> 00:41:23.869
It is.
680
00:41:24.429 --> 00:41:24.889
It is.
681
00:41:24.989 --> 00:41:25.269
It is.
682
00:41:26.670 --> 00:41:29.969
So, all right. One gotta go. One gotta go.
683
00:41:30.090 --> 00:41:30.829
Miss April H.
684
00:41:30.909 --> 00:41:36.239
one gotta go. Money, fame, love, or freedom. One gotta go. What?
685
00:41:36.480 --> 00:41:40.250
Well, how would you choose me for this one? Money, fame.
686
00:41:41.710 --> 00:41:43.570
What was it? Money, fame, what?
687
00:41:45.250 --> 00:41:46.969
Money, fame, love, or freedom.
688
00:41:47.090 --> 00:41:47.630
One gotta go.
689
00:41:47.650 --> 00:41:51.690
I guess fame. If I got money and love and freedom,
690
00:41:51.750 --> 00:41:52.190
I'm straight.
691
00:41:54.559 --> 00:41:55.420
Alright, alright.
692
00:41:55.739 --> 00:41:56.860
Felix, one gotta go.
693
00:41:58.320 --> 00:41:59.619
Money, fame, love, or freedom.
694
00:42:00.420 --> 00:42:03.219
Yeah, fame. I echo that.
695
00:42:04.039 --> 00:42:05.679
Get rid of fame, I'm happy with everything else.
696
00:42:06.679 --> 00:42:08.110
Yeah. Well, this is where.
697
00:42:09.039 --> 00:42:10.599
This is where I'm going to have to deviate from
698
00:42:10.619 --> 00:42:13.500
the group again, America, because I.
699
00:42:14.219 --> 00:42:15.079
Am giving up love.
700
00:42:15.340 --> 00:42:18.599
I am taking my money, I'm taking my fame, and
701
00:42:18.619 --> 00:42:19.900
I am taking my freedom.
702
00:42:20.699 --> 00:42:24.699
I am giving up love. Like, look, look, look.
703
00:42:25.619 --> 00:42:33.510
Scrooge McDuck is swimming in my money. With your Scottish accent, too?
704
00:42:33.909 --> 00:42:35.289
Scrooge McDuck is crazy.
705
00:42:37.380 --> 00:42:39.119
Yes, yes, absolutely.
706
00:42:39.139 --> 00:42:40.969
I think you're lying. I think you're lying.
707
00:42:40.989 --> 00:42:42.789
Did you?
708
00:42:42.829 --> 00:42:46.130
Not at all. If I had a choice and one
709
00:42:46.170 --> 00:42:48.750
had to go, yes, absolutely. Get it out of here.
710
00:42:48.789 --> 00:42:50.530
You want me to tell him your nickname or you
711
00:42:50.550 --> 00:42:52.030
want me to keep that between me and you?
712
00:42:52.050 --> 00:42:53.130
Because I think you're lying.
713
00:42:53.829 --> 00:42:55.489
Oh, my gosh. America.
714
00:42:55.510 --> 00:42:56.659
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
715
00:42:58.610 --> 00:43:00.329
It be your friends.
716
00:43:00.489 --> 00:43:01.170
Your own people.
717
00:43:01.190 --> 00:43:03.579
That's twice now. And I witnessed it.
718
00:43:03.650 --> 00:43:06.889
I thought that was between me and you.
719
00:43:08.590 --> 00:43:09.929
That's twice now. I witnessed it.
720
00:43:09.969 --> 00:43:11.989
That's crazy. That's unbelievable.
721
00:43:12.010 --> 00:43:16.409
Yo, yo, yo. Oh my gosh. All Wednesday morning. Y'all
722
00:43:16.429 --> 00:43:17.960
want to see a dead body? Boom.
723
00:43:18.159 --> 00:43:18.739
Marky's left.
724
00:43:19.320 --> 00:43:21.139
All the morning experiences.
725
00:43:22.320 --> 00:43:23.260
X's over the eyes.
726
00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:23.800
Folks.
727
00:43:28.079 --> 00:43:29.079
We'll be back after this.
728
00:43:29.400 --> 00:43:32.550
Hopefully, I won't be dead and can resurrect myself.
729
00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:34.570
Stay with us.
730
00:43:39.550 --> 00:43:42.469
Welcome back to the Morning Experience, folks. And we are
731
00:43:42.530 --> 00:43:46.349
about to play Hot Seat, where we put our two
732
00:43:46.409 --> 00:43:51.809
guests to the test. And we ask them questions in
733
00:43:51.809 --> 00:43:55.710
60 seconds time. So we're going to begin.
734
00:43:55.429 --> 00:43:56.429
With you, Felix.
735
00:43:56.489 --> 00:44:01.400
Felix is in the hot seat. So, Felix, let's begin this.
736
00:44:01.579 --> 00:44:06.820
All right, so let's do this hot seat. And in three, two,
737
00:44:07.039 --> 00:44:09.320
and one. What is your biggest pet peeve, Felix?
738
00:44:11.179 --> 00:44:12.530
Oh, people chewing with their mouth open.
739
00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:16.090
What is your go-to comfort food? Pizza.
740
00:44:16.809 --> 00:44:19.329
What is one thing you're
bad at?
741
00:44:20.550 --> 00:44:21.429
Not biting my nails.
742
00:44:22.170 --> 00:44:24.630
What is the funniest thing that has happened to you recently?
743
00:44:26.349 --> 00:44:27.409
My daughter's making me laugh.
744
00:44:28.210 --> 00:44:29.670
What is your worst habit?
745
00:44:31.210 --> 00:44:33.429
Biting my nails.
746
00:44:33.469 --> 00:44:35.179
What is the last thing you searched online?
747
00:44:37.699 --> 00:44:41.179
Spark plugs for my truck. What celebrity would you want
748
00:44:41.219 --> 00:44:43.579
to have you play in a movie?
749
00:44:46.099 --> 00:44:46.889
Oh, my Lord. I.
750
00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:51.400
Oh, man. I can't even answer that.
751
00:44:51.460 --> 00:44:51.860
I don't know.
752
00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:54.900
Man.
753
00:44:56.019 --> 00:44:59.699
Man, why not? Denzel, why not? All right, all right.
754
00:44:59.980 --> 00:45:01.039
What is your dream vacation?
755
00:45:04.949 --> 00:45:06.809
Going anywhere my wife wants to go.
756
00:45:06.800 --> 00:45:08.090
Because I'm happy.
757
00:45:08.570 --> 00:45:09.909
What instantly puts you in a good mood?
758
00:45:12.369 --> 00:45:12.650
Peace.
759
00:45:14.530 --> 00:45:16.769
And finally, what is the first thing you do when
760
00:45:16.829 --> 00:45:21.269
you wake up every morning? Check my phone. All right,
761
00:45:21.329 --> 00:45:21.710
all right.
762
00:45:21.769 --> 00:45:24.789
So we're going to move on to Ms. April H.
763
00:45:24.809 --> 00:45:24.969
Ms.
764
00:45:25.030 --> 00:45:25.460
April H.
765
00:45:25.489 --> 00:45:28.670
you are in the hot seat. So get ready. And
766
00:45:28.690 --> 00:45:29.909
in three, two, one.
767
00:45:29.929 --> 00:45:30.579
Ms. April H.
768
00:45:30.909 --> 00:45:33.429
what's one thing you're currently trying to improve?
769
00:45:35.230 --> 00:45:38.239
My physical health, working out.
770
00:45:38.469 --> 00:45:40.699
What is your most controversial opinion?
771
00:45:42.980 --> 00:45:46.260
Most controversial? Do I have controversy?
772
00:45:47.260 --> 00:45:50.070
Probably like, um, I'm new on my group chats. Like
773
00:45:50.130 --> 00:45:52.369
I meet them all. And then I get mad when
774
00:45:52.389 --> 00:45:53.230
I don't hear from people.
775
00:45:56.969 --> 00:46:05.309
What's, what's one word your friends would use to describe you? Um,
776
00:46:05.550 --> 00:46:06.489
I don't know.
777
00:46:06.570 --> 00:46:07.590
I'm gonna have to ask them.
778
00:46:07.630 --> 00:46:10.630
I would say sarcastic.
779
00:46:11.730 --> 00:46:12.130
All right.
780
00:46:12.210 --> 00:46:13.929
So then with that, what is your worst habit?
781
00:46:16.070 --> 00:46:20.010
Like, was I too mean when I said that? Yes,
782
00:46:20.050 --> 00:46:20.670
you probably were.
783
00:46:21.570 --> 00:46:23.849
What is the funniest thing that happened.
784
00:46:23.590 --> 00:46:24.250
To you recently?
785
00:46:26.619 --> 00:46:30.079
I tried a new recipe and my seven-year-old was eating
786
00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:32.510
it slowly and I was like, you didn't like it?
787
00:46:32.539 --> 00:46:35.039
And she was like, it's not very good, but I
788
00:46:35.079 --> 00:46:36.000
didn't want to be mean.
789
00:46:38.480 --> 00:46:38.840
Got it.
790
00:46:38.880 --> 00:46:41.469
Stick to the same old meals. Don't try nothing new.
791
00:46:41.750 --> 00:46:46.389
And in that same vein, What's one thing that you're
792
00:46:46.409 --> 00:46:47.489
bad at? Last question.
793
00:46:49.570 --> 00:46:53.469
Bad at? Laser tag, because that's how I ended up
794
00:46:53.489 --> 00:46:54.190
with knee surgery.
795
00:46:54.969 --> 00:46:58.739
We're going to have to hear that story. We're going
796
00:46:58.760 --> 00:47:02.500
to have to hear that story sometime, America. Remember, laser tag,
797
00:47:02.539 --> 00:47:06.179
knee surgery. We are going to have to hear that story. Folks,
798
00:47:06.219 --> 00:47:08.980
this is The Morning Experience. We'll be back with more
799
00:47:09.059 --> 00:47:09.460
after this.
800
00:47:14.590 --> 00:47:16.369
All right, folks. Happy Wednesday to you.
801
00:47:16.409 --> 00:47:18.630
We're going to keep it moving and grooving, gliding and
802
00:47:18.650 --> 00:47:22.010
sliding on this game tip. So we have a different
803
00:47:22.050 --> 00:47:26.030
version of say what, where we didn't take it to
804
00:47:26.090 --> 00:47:29.789
the guests because we have guests today. So, uh, Phil,
805
00:47:29.829 --> 00:47:33.050
it's going to start with you. You received $ 10, 000, but
806
00:47:33.070 --> 00:47:41.780
you can never use the internet again. Would you accept that? Uh, no,
807
00:47:41.820 --> 00:47:47.360
not 10,000. Uh, No, I'll turn it down. Oh, all right.
808
00:47:47.590 --> 00:47:47.739
Ms.
809
00:47:47.780 --> 00:47:48.269
April H.
810
00:47:48.360 --> 00:47:51.809
you become famous, but your family controls your social media.
811
00:47:52.550 --> 00:47:53.110
Would you take it?
812
00:47:54.010 --> 00:47:57.250
Which family member? My teenage daughter or my mother?
813
00:48:00.590 --> 00:48:03.090
All of them. Sometimes it's your mom. Sometimes it's your
814
00:48:03.110 --> 00:48:03.760
teenage daughter.
815
00:48:03.780 --> 00:48:06.059
No, I don't want to be famous.
816
00:48:06.139 --> 00:48:06.519
I'm good.
817
00:48:07.340 --> 00:48:07.980
Oh, all right.
818
00:48:08.079 --> 00:48:08.440
All right.
819
00:48:09.619 --> 00:48:13.039
Felix, you can go viral, but everyone sees your most
820
00:48:13.119 --> 00:48:21.489
embarrassing photo. Yeah. Yeah.
821
00:48:21.829 --> 00:48:22.340
Yeah, I'll do it.
822
00:48:22.769 --> 00:48:23.389
Yeah. Yeah.
823
00:48:23.550 --> 00:48:26.489
Yeah. Me too. Me too. I mean, you know, your
824
00:48:26.510 --> 00:48:29.639
boy ain't got too many embarrassing photos. That's what I
825
00:48:29.699 --> 00:48:34.610
was thinking. Yeah. This is April H.
826
00:48:34.840 --> 00:48:37.980
You get your dream job, but your ex works there.
827
00:48:39.199 --> 00:48:39.730
You doing it?
828
00:48:41.059 --> 00:48:41.619
Yeah.
829
00:48:41.900 --> 00:48:43.070
I'm a Taurus.
830
00:48:43.389 --> 00:48:46.210
My ignore game is strong.
831
00:48:46.889 --> 00:48:47.150
Yep.
832
00:48:47.289 --> 00:48:47.550
Yep.
833
00:48:47.630 --> 00:48:48.070
Same here.
834
00:48:48.309 --> 00:48:49.050
How about you, Felix?
835
00:48:52.360 --> 00:48:56.360
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
836
00:48:56.440 --> 00:48:59.559
I don't think I would because I just believe in
837
00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:01.920
staying away from negative energy, so that would be a
838
00:49:01.940 --> 00:49:03.320
tough one. I would have to say no, though.
839
00:49:04.030 --> 00:49:07.489
The dream? The dream? The dream is to drop? Because
840
00:49:07.670 --> 00:49:11.190
I can find another dream job. I'll make it happen.
841
00:49:11.809 --> 00:49:14.349
I'll relocate that dream job. Not me.
842
00:49:14.389 --> 00:49:16.159
I'm going to smell good and look good every day
843
00:49:16.239 --> 00:49:18.719
and ignore them and live my best life.
844
00:49:18.820 --> 00:49:22.599
Mm-hmm. So, Ms.
845
00:49:22.659 --> 00:49:23.139
April H.
846
00:49:23.179 --> 00:49:26.500
you never have to work again, but you can only
847
00:49:26.659 --> 00:49:33.250
eat one meal forever. What?
848
00:49:33.289 --> 00:49:35.849
Never work again and I get to pick the meals?
849
00:49:37.139 --> 00:49:39.409
It's the same meal? It's the same meal all the time?
850
00:49:39.429 --> 00:49:40.110
The same meal.
851
00:49:40.869 --> 00:49:41.949
Same meal all the time.
852
00:49:44.130 --> 00:49:52.050
Breakfast, overrated brunch, lunch, dinner, snack time. I don't know.
853
00:49:52.130 --> 00:49:53.150
I might say yes.
854
00:49:53.269 --> 00:49:57.219
Like, working is a lot sometimes. I can do whatever
855
00:49:57.260 --> 00:49:58.860
else I wanted. I just gotta eat the same food
856
00:49:58.900 --> 00:49:59.960
and I get to choose the food?
857
00:49:59.980 --> 00:50:03.619
I don't think that's bad. Okay.
858
00:50:04.760 --> 00:50:05.119
Feel it.
859
00:50:05.219 --> 00:50:08.309
You can read minds. but only when people are complaining
860
00:50:08.429 --> 00:50:13.449
about you. You taking it?
861
00:50:14.289 --> 00:50:15.030
Yeah, I am.
862
00:50:16.789 --> 00:50:18.170
I'll endure it.
863
00:50:19.889 --> 00:50:22.789
Yo, yo, I would too. I would too.
864
00:50:23.929 --> 00:50:26.929
And like, yo, oh, oh, oh man. I would be,
865
00:50:27.050 --> 00:50:29.849
I would be dastardly with it. I would be dastardly
866
00:50:29.869 --> 00:50:31.869
with it. I would have people complain to me just
867
00:50:31.909 --> 00:50:32.889
so that I could read their mind.
868
00:50:32.929 --> 00:50:33.639
Yeah, right.
869
00:50:33.699 --> 00:50:35.550
Like you're getting up to it after a while.
870
00:50:36.210 --> 00:50:40.159
Tell me about myself. Right, right, right. I know, right, right. Yeah,
871
00:50:41.019 --> 00:50:42.000
I do that so much.
872
00:50:42.579 --> 00:50:43.739
Oh, my gosh. Oh, man, folks.
873
00:50:50.210 --> 00:50:52.050
That was game time.
874
00:50:52.869 --> 00:50:57.679
Having some fun on this other side of the morning experience.
875
00:50:58.179 --> 00:51:00.159
After giving you what you need, giving you what you wanted,
876
00:51:00.199 --> 00:51:03.219
and giving you what you did not know existed with
877
00:51:03.320 --> 00:51:13.280
the news. This is your morning experience on a Wednesday. Folks,
878
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:16.010
I want to thank you for joining us on the
879
00:51:16.050 --> 00:51:19.210
morning experience and making us a part of your hump day.
880
00:51:19.789 --> 00:51:19.989
Ms.
881
00:51:20.110 --> 00:51:23.989
April H., what do you have planned for today? You know,
882
00:51:24.070 --> 00:51:28.300
it's morning time. You got your juju going and everything.
883
00:51:28.579 --> 00:51:30.239
So what's up after this?
884
00:51:31.280 --> 00:51:34.500
Not trying a new recipe for my seven-year-old, I'll tell.
885
00:51:35.159 --> 00:51:36.659
You that much.
886
00:51:36.900 --> 00:51:38.820
Feelings are still hurt.
887
00:51:39.429 --> 00:51:43.369
Well, well, maybe, maybe, I don't know.
888
00:51:43.969 --> 00:51:44.329
I don't know.
889
00:51:45.409 --> 00:51:49.139
Maybe, maybe you can give her some brunch. since you're
890
00:51:49.159 --> 00:51:50.059
such a fan of it.
891
00:51:50.119 --> 00:51:51.860
You feel petty.
892
00:51:52.420 --> 00:51:57.289
Here you go. He's been waiting to rerun that fact somehow.
893
00:51:57.349 --> 00:51:58.750
French toast and soup.
894
00:51:58.789 --> 00:51:59.550
That's your go-to.
895
00:52:00.230 --> 00:52:03.289
French toast and soup. That was an example. And that's
896
00:52:03.550 --> 00:52:04.289
your example.
897
00:52:04.349 --> 00:52:05.170
That's your go-to.
898
00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:18.750
I mean, for the record, I've never eaten that.
899
00:52:18.949 --> 00:52:21.190
I'm just saying, if I wanted to, I could because
900
00:52:21.269 --> 00:52:22.590
it's brunch and I don't have to choose.
901
00:52:22.849 --> 00:52:26.590
Okay? It's freedom. Well, that sounds disgusting.
902
00:52:27.369 --> 00:52:30.980
It does. French toast and soup.
903
00:52:31.039 --> 00:52:31.679
You know what?
904
00:52:32.460 --> 00:52:35.800
Which one do you eat first? Which one do you
905
00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:37.619
eat first? Get the soup out of the way. Let
906
00:52:37.739 --> 00:52:39.880
me get that chicken noodle.
907
00:52:39.900 --> 00:52:43.349
You gotta let the soup cool off while you eat
908
00:52:43.389 --> 00:52:44.090
the French toast.
909
00:52:45.190 --> 00:52:47.550
Now you got cold soup.
910
00:52:47.690 --> 00:52:53.059
Now you got cold soup. With a syrupy palate? Oh,
911
00:52:53.179 --> 00:52:54.019
my gosh.
912
00:52:54.460 --> 00:52:54.699
Oh.
913
00:52:55.280 --> 00:52:58.369
Well, hey, French America, French toast and soup.
914
00:52:58.769 --> 00:53:00.440
How about you, Felix? What do you got lined up?
915
00:53:01.769 --> 00:53:05.980
Man, I'm probably just going to take it easy. You know,
916
00:53:06.019 --> 00:53:08.659
it's halfway through the work week. You know, I'm trying
917
00:53:08.679 --> 00:53:11.559
to maintain and sustain. Like I said, my father-in-law likes
918
00:53:11.579 --> 00:53:13.039
to say that. I'm probably going to be working in
919
00:53:13.079 --> 00:53:15.159
my studio in my garage and just, you know, try
920
00:53:15.199 --> 00:53:16.639
to get through the rest of the week safely.
921
00:53:16.699 --> 00:53:16.920
Yeah.
922
00:53:18.500 --> 00:53:20.280
Yeah, man. Dig it, dig it.
923
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:23.760
I got classes to teach tomorrow, so I am chilling
924
00:53:23.880 --> 00:53:26.980
out for the rest of the day. Folks, thank you
925
00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:30.699
for joining us on The Morning Experience. You are the best.
926
00:53:31.280 --> 00:53:32.719
Have a good day.
927
00:53:32.820 --> 00:53:36.389
Have a better week. And we will see you on Thursday.
928
00:53:36.929 --> 00:53:37.210
Peace.
