00:00:06.650 --> 00:00:07.700
The cubby podcast.
00:00:10.130 --> 00:00:10.939
Hi, Ron Lewis,
00:00:35.929 --> 00:00:35.929
Man.
00:00:35.930 --> 00:00:37.189
I think, I think it's safe.
00:00:37.670 --> 00:00:38.869
I think everybody iron man.
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:40.820
Why not?
00:00:41.509 --> 00:00:43.130
I think everybody y'all ain't think about it.
00:00:44.179 --> 00:00:44.840
Just think about it.
00:00:45.229 --> 00:00:53.929
There's been hundreds of hundreds of people marching, and they have said that the uptick in COVID reactions have spiked, but I think, I think we good.
00:00:53.930 --> 00:00:54.799
I think, I think we're not.
00:00:55.649 --> 00:01:00.890
Wait, why does that make you feel like, I just don't think that s tarted h anging o ut w ell.
00:01:00.890 --> 00:01:01.609
Yeah, of course.
00:01:01.969 --> 00:01:12.409
I don't think it's as, I don't think it says detrimental as they've been saying, if large crowds would assemble, I thought like, as soon as you got in a large crowd, everybody's going to die on site.
00:01:13.129 --> 00:01:15.680
It ain't that it's just, you know, you may cough a little bit.
00:01:17.689 --> 00:01:20.959
Oh, so you're just saying the who w eren't dying,
00:01:23.659 --> 00:01:25.549
I'm thinking COVID is like polio.
00:01:26.450 --> 00:01:27.079
You know what I'm saying?
00:01:27.081 --> 00:01:28.819
Like polio a real disease.
00:01:28.820 --> 00:01:31.579
This is on some, I honestly think this is the new age.
00:01:31.909 --> 00:01:33.769
I think they just trying to bring arms.
00:01:33.980 --> 00:01:34.609
Yeah, man.
00:01:36.290 --> 00:01:36.859
I'll be honest, man.
00:01:36.861 --> 00:01:38.000
I just want everything to go back
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:40.549
To the new age, Brandon,
00:01:40.549 --> 00:01:41.989
As the new age, think about it.
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:47.000
It's only affecting a certain demographic old people, right.
00:01:47.239 --> 00:01:48.290
It's really targeting them.
00:01:48.290 --> 00:01:50.900
Just like, Hey, he's talking to the black people and gay.
00:01:51.530 --> 00:01:54.290
The only i t's t alking t o black people, old people.
00:01:54.290 --> 00:01:54.349
Y eah.
00:01:58.849 --> 00:01:58.849
Okay.
00:01:59.090 --> 00:02:00.469
That's the only new addition.
00:02:01.010 --> 00:02:04.129
Everything else, every new disease always attacked me
00:02:07.969 --> 00:02:08.719
Age rebranded.
00:02:08.721 --> 00:02:09.469
That's what it is.
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:19.490
[inaudible] If he come on,
00:02:22.129 --> 00:02:22.969
I should've been dead.
00:02:22.971 --> 00:02:25.129
Just I'm itching to get outside.
00:02:25.131 --> 00:02:26.509
Like most of y'all got interactions.
00:02:26.510 --> 00:02:26.930
You know what I'm saying?
00:02:26.931 --> 00:02:29.680
Now that you, by yourself, you see what I'm saying?
00:02:29.740 --> 00:02:32.300
You gonna really realize this is a little, a little different.
00:02:35.169 --> 00:02:43.580
She'd been asked to be born.
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:52.099
You see that couch that you got in your living room, sitting on that.
00:02:52.939 --> 00:02:56.000
That's it all day, all day sitting on that do work t here.
00:02:56.030 --> 00:02:57.139
Get up from there and w ork o ut.
00:02:57.140 --> 00:02:58.129
I've been going to CrossFit gym.
00:02:58.131 --> 00:02:58.490
Actually.
00:02:59.080 --> 00:02:59.919
I've been going every day.
00:03:01.449 --> 00:03:02.699

00:03:02.700 --> 00:03:04.930

Ain't no haircut.
00:03:08.500 --> 00:03:08.650
As
00:03:10.870 --> 00:03:13.330
You add to that was getting out of control for you.
00:03:14.550 --> 00:03:14.969
I don't know.
00:03:17.219 --> 00:03:19.949
Uh, you know, you can't grow a mad man style.
00:03:25.259 --> 00:03:38.310
I was definitely tied to these one or two.
00:03:38.311 --> 00:03:38.969
Never third.
00:03:42.629 --> 00:03:44.009
I say I never lost.
00:03:44.010 --> 00:03:45.150
He sa id I ain't never lose either.
00:03:47.539 --> 00:03:47.539
Yeah.
00:03:47.540 --> 00:03:49.199
I have two that never lose that.
00:03:49.379 --> 00:03:50.370
That's not how I w ork.
00:03:51.330 --> 00:03:52.020
It's more than one.
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:55.949
You know that phrase that you always use.
00:03:55.979 --> 00:03:57.030
Two things can be true.
00:03:58.710 --> 00:04:01.530
I mean, I heard who said it, S hannon s hock kept saying t his.
00:04:02.129 --> 00:04:04.020
He was just like, yo two things can be true.
00:04:04.349 --> 00:04:11.849
And I was like, yo, can it be saying, th is c a n b e true.
00:04:12.300 --> 00:04:12.629
And I'm like,
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:13.800
You know what I'm saying?
00:04:16.629 --> 00:04:20.639
So black and white, sometimes a little gray
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:22.680
Machine shop started saying it.
00:04:22.680 --> 00:04:23.370
I was like, all right.
00:04:23.370 --> 00:04:25.889
So Shannon shopping cannon in the same pool, same boat.
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:28.529
They must be right.
00:04:29.339 --> 00:04:30.750
If Shannon Sharpe standing, it must be right.
00:04:31.589 --> 00:04:32.189
I disagree.
00:04:34.490 --> 00:04:35.649
If you say to must be right.
00:04:38.910 --> 00:04:42.959
I'm saying no, that's some real time.
00:04:43.620 --> 00:04:44.579
But yeah man,
00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:53.290
I believe
00:04:53.459 --> 00:04:53.459
So.
00:04:55.379 --> 00:04:57.000
What are you talking about?
00:04:57.000 --> 00:04:58.050
You can't put that out there.
00:04:58.500 --> 00:05:00.449
Black women about to cancel you.
00:05:02.509 --> 00:05:03.600
You can't be saying that.
00:05:04.170 --> 00:05:04.889
You know me.
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:06.209
I mean, I love black women.
00:05:08.579 --> 00:05:08.939
You don't
00:05:08.939 --> 00:05:10.110
Think Kyrie love black women.
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:13.199
I seen a picture

of him on a boat with nothing but white.
00:05:13.201 --> 00:05:13.889
Come on dog.
00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:14.459
Don't do that.
00:05:14.461 --> 00:05:15.180
Don't put that on him.
00:05:15.500 --> 00:05:16.300
Never see me on a boat.
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:20.459
I see you in a club with a whole bunch of white women.
00:05:21.709 --> 00:05:23.399
No, I see.
00:05:23.730 --> 00:05:25.379
Now it's changing venues.
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:26.879
I haven't seen you in a club.
00:05:33.689 --> 00:05:34.410
I'm the one that took you.
00:05:37.949 --> 00:05:38.160
No, no.
00:05:38.161 --> 00:05:39.060
We was in a club together.
00:05:39.089 --> 00:05:40.259
Remember I forgot what it was.
00:05:41.610 --> 00:05:45.000
We were just like, yo, this is whole was a lot of clubs.
00:05:48.029 --> 00:05:49.079
I feel uncomfortable.
00:05:49.290 --> 00:05:49.920
I was just like, yeah,
00:05:53.069 --> 00:05:53.790
Let's just say outside.
00:05:53.790 --> 00:05:54.600
And you know, just talk.
00:05:54.660 --> 00:05:56.009
I'm like, Hey, you don't want none of this.
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:01.310
Listen, we went to, uh, not even Mason.
00:06:01.310 --> 00:06:02.149
We went to some other joint.
00:06:02.151 --> 00:06:02.600
Remember that,
00:06:08.110 --> 00:06:09.009
You know what I'm talking about?
00:06:09.610 --> 00:06:10.540
What was the call sandals?
00:06:16.329 --> 00:06:17.860
And that wasn't a good spot.
00:06:18.790 --> 00:06:19.689
It was country club.
00:06:20.470 --> 00:06:20.709
Yeah.
00:06:20.711 --> 00:06:21.370
That's what it was called.
00:06:21.370 --> 00:06:22.329
It was called country club.
00:06:22.389 --> 00:06:23.350
We should have known it from the name.
00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:30.220
Who's the one that said to go there w ith f lourish.
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:32.980
Well, carry a basketball player, carry flourish.
00:06:33.009 --> 00:06:33.339
Anyway.
00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:34.360
It don't matter.
00:06:35.949 --> 00:06:37.540
If you played basketball, you get in women.
00:06:37.810 --> 00:06:41.740
That's a fact I don't get it right by me.
00:06:41.740 --> 00:06:44.259
You get Asian, you get black women.
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:45.430
You get everything.
00:06:45.430 --> 00:06:48.850
If you play basketball, you, you probably on the top of the other charts.
00:06:48.939 --> 00:06:49.480
That's probably it.
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:50.829
It's probably basketball players.
00:06:56.800 --> 00:06:57.579
NBA players.
00:06:57.581 --> 00:07:01.629
Is that like our politics?
00:07:02.410 --> 00:07:03.670
I can just say they are leaders.
00:07:07.790 --> 00:07:11.680
They social change.
00:07:13.269 --> 00:07:13.839
Isn't that funny?
00:07:13.841 --> 00:07:14.620
Isn't that ironic?
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:19.180
How our basketball players, I became more social conscious and American facts.
00:07:20.709 --> 00:07:21.910
That's how it is bro.
00:07:22.470 --> 00:07:22.470
Why?
00:07:22.569 --> 00:07:23.920
They say he's a rapper go to the league.
00:07:24.009 --> 00:07:24.730
Cause that's how you make it.
00:07:24.819 --> 00:07:28.149
That's how you make it community.
00:07:28.660 --> 00:07:29.470
But we changed in that.
00:07:29.471 --> 00:07:30.879
But you can't act like that.
00:07:30.880 --> 00:07:31.810
Ain't a lot of truth.
00:07:34.930 --> 00:07:36.459
J Cole on a pedestal.
00:07:37.290 --> 00:07:37.779
J Cole.
00:07:37.910 --> 00:07:38.649
What, what was that about?
00:07:38.651 --> 00:07:39.459
I didn't get that.
00:07:39.579 --> 00:07:41.139
Well, J Cole don't like black women either.
00:07:41.141 --> 00:07:41.439
Now.
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:43.240
Why is it that m ake i t?
00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:44.529
We always say they don't like black women.
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:45.100
What's up with t hat.
00:07:49.449 --> 00:07:50.170
I said about Jake.
00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:52.360
Who said that?
00:07:52.360 --> 00:08:05.680
Jamie said that he might, that was like six years ago.
00:08:07.689 --> 00:08:08.649
He might've came around.
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:10.329
You do.
00:08:10.930 --> 00:08:14.680
You have to, you cannot, you can't take our black women, bro.
00:08:16.389 --> 00:08:17.410
I don't know how you would ever.
00:08:18.339 --> 00:08:18.939
I don't know, man.
00:08:18.940 --> 00:08:23.040
Maybe it's just me, but I would rather have black women's yacht party than a white woman.
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:26.350
But that's just me.
00:08:26.350 --> 00:08:26.740
I guess.
00:08:27.939 --> 00:08:28.720
It's all good, man.
00:08:33.580 --> 00:08:34.059
You know what I'm saying?
00:08:34.061 --> 00:08:38.289
He does eat and learn.
00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:44.500
You can learn that you just can't be talking about women's tone and nah,
00:08:45.970 --> 00:08:46.600
Let's stop this.
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:50.350
What do you mean he can't talk about why can't we talk about whatever you want to talk about?
00:08:51.700 --> 00:08:56.370
You can, but you better be bullying prepared for the consequences.
00:08:56.789 --> 00:09:16.500
When the last time, the last woman you said some of the last time you told that I can't even fix my mouth to say that, that, that was my mom's b ro.
00:09:16.500 --> 00:09:17.309
I can't do that.
00:09:19.100 --> 00:09:19.509
I c an't.
00:09:19.690 --> 00:09:22.350
I feel like, you know what I'm saying?
00:09:23.250 --> 00:09:25.710
U h, yeah, but what was the context?
00:09:25.710 --> 00:09:34.950
, we ain't do that.
00:09:38.250 --> 00:09:40.200
What do you mean a conscious?
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:49.080
I think it'd be basically w here's you.
00:09:50.230 --> 00:10:00.179
Ca use I w ent to school and I know more than the average or maybe I am just the average that I'm just this genius.
00:10:00.181 --> 00:10:04.200
Martin Luther King is, wh at' s his n ame?
00:10:05.490 --> 00:10:08.429
All these philosophers and these freedom fighters.
00:10:08.431 --> 00:10:08.970
I'm not there.
00:10:09.090 --> 00:10:09.659
I'm just the ne gat i ve.
00:10:10.409 -->
00:10:12.059
But th e t h ing about the c l ima te,
00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:17.389
You just said it rappers and ballplayers are the two most idolized po sitions t hat we have in th e c ommunity.
00:10:17.390 --> 00:10:18.769
Let's just say that, right?
00:10:18.950 --> 00:10:26.090
So if yo u c ome out on a platform and say XY Z, and it's a thought or substance, who are people going to listen to?
00:10:26.091 --> 00:10:26.779
They're going to listen to you.
00:10:26.809 --> 00:10:26.960
Now.
00:10:26.961 --> 00:10:27.889
He may be growing.
00:10:27.890 --> 00:10:29.059
He may not have all the answers.
00:10:29.061 --> 00:10:35.750
He's definitely not an MLK or Malcolm X, but in these times who wi ll b e l istening to, we li stened t o somebody that spoke.
00:10:35.750 --> 00:10:37.580
In fa ct, now I s aid it, Oh Jay Z said it.
00:10:37.850 --> 00:10:38.929
You're trying to kick knowledge.
00:10:39.049 --> 00:10:39.350
Yeah.
00:10:39.350 --> 00:10:41.419
If you're trying to kick knowledge, you got to come with the ba cklash.
00:10:41.750 --> 00:10:42.559
You got to come with things.
00:10:42.561 --> 00:10:43.700
That's either going to be.
00:10:46.129 --> 00:10:51.230
It's kind of like, I'm not a role model.
00:10:52.129 --> 00:10:54.299
Uh, we should not be a role model.
00:10:55.789 --> 00:10:58.370
But, but the fact is that he was, he was a ball p layer.
00:10:58.370 --> 00:10:59.299
Y ou're a b all p l ayer.
00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:06.710
We elevate you there just because he w a s s o good at something, we think you should be a leader.
00:11:06.950 --> 00:11:13.820
We think you should be the person we follow when it's not necessarily how it's supposed to be.
00:11:15.500 --> 00:11:18.799
It goes into the topic is if people can separate the art from the person,
00:11:20.450 --> 00:11:21.350
You see what I'm saying?
00:11:23.419 --> 00:11:24.740
Do you listen to Michael Jackson music?
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:29.299
You like jokes
00:11:30.139 --> 00:11:38.659
Bill, but they don't believe you, man.
00:11:38.730 --> 00:11:38.730
You.
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:45.320
Tanya
00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:45.919
Kanye.
00:11:45.950 --> 00:11:46.879
Let's think about a Kanye.
00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:52.100
Can you appreciate his artwork versus his political views or who he stands with?
00:11:52.129 --> 00:11:52.850
I think at this day.
00:11:52.850 --> 00:11:54.159
And I think we attach the person
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:55.570
To the art and a little bit too much.
00:11:56.879 --> 00:11:56.879
Yeah.
00:11:57.509 --> 00:12:05.850
I think the reason that is, is because if I market in bro, you got to think about when we Mark these artists, you want them to seem relatable.
00:12:06.389 --> 00:12:08.129
You want people to want to be like them.
00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:12.690
Want to follow them this whole time.
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:20.429
That's why these, these low level artists who are not mainstream all over the globe, they don't get that same f or because no o ne's
pushing them d own.
00:12:22.330 --> 00:12:26.940
Be like, LeBron b e like Rick Ross be like J Cole b e like D rake.
00:12:27.419 --> 00:12:28.350
That's just not happening.
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.200
But you're saying people don't push that initiative.
00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:36.090
What I'm saying, when initiative is pushed, you get held to a lesser standard.
00:12:37.019 --> 00:12:46.080
Somebody like young s tuff a nd come out and say that about a woman having a tone an d n ot going to tr i p on him the same way as they did J c o d e.
00:12:46.529 --> 00:12:47.250
I t' s ju s t th a t.
00:12:51.659 --> 00:12:55.679
But it's that platform that J Cole based on his previous work and what he said, that was true.
00:12:55.681 --> 00:13:00.559
That people related to that puts that allows us to put J Cole on that platform.
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:08.220
Remember we don't put people places without them actually making an effort and making a stance that resonates with us.
00:13:08.221 --> 00:13:09.090
We don't do that.
00:13:09.299 --> 00:13:13.049
Like Uzi could say some, but we were like, Oh, that's just oozy, oozy.
00:13:13.051 --> 00:13:13.620
Just saying some.
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:14.789
J Cole say some.
00:13:15.870 --> 00:13:17.340
That going to s park a little loud.
00:13:17.341 --> 00:13:18.990
It's g oing t o make a little, u h, I'm sorry.
00:13:19.019 --> 00:13:20.850
A bigger impact than say a noon.
00:13:20.850 --> 00:13:21.600
T hey're g oing t o s cene.
00:13:25.009 --> 00:13:26.190
I agree with that.
00:13:26.610 --> 00:13:33.750
But it's also still the fact that as people, we got recognized that we made that choice and then you get denied.
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:39.690
Then force us to, there's a lot of other g oing way more w ork and we didn't put them there.
00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:40.740
And so
00:13:41.370 --> 00:13:44.549
We just got to make those, those people be more visible.
00:13:45.389 --> 00:13:47.129
It's only, and that's the problem in our community.
00:13:47.130 --> 00:13:57.029
We only put a couple of people in the limelight and that's because as black people, our, I would make, I don't want to get too much in the episode, but our major currency bro, a hundred percent is culture.
00:13:58.350 --> 00:14:01.169
That's why our value really lies like you a lawyer.
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:03.809
Now there's doctors out here and you could do great work.
00:14:03.990 --> 00:14:04.740
That's been great lawyers.
00:14:04.889 --> 00:14:07.379
That's done great work, but you ain't on MTV.
00:14:08.220 --> 00:14:09.570
You ain't going to bet.
00:14:09.779 --> 00:14:10.500
And guess what?
00:14:10.500 --> 00:14:11.159
We watching
00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:14.190
People hold him to a higher standard than me.
00:14:14.970 --> 00:14:15.659
And why is that?
00:14:15.660 --> 00:14:16.200
Not me bro.
00:14:16.230 --> 00:14:16.799
Not me bro.
00:14:16.980 --> 00:14:17.399
You know what I mean?
00:14:17.400 --> 00:14:17.639
Me.
00:14:17.640 --> 00:14:18.240
I, you know what I mean?
00:14:19.529 --> 00:14:20.490
I with you bro.
00:14:20.580 --> 00:14:21.330
I listened to you.
00:14:21.419 --> 00:14:22.470
I l istened to J ay Cole too.
00:14:22.590 --> 00:14:25.169
He just got better beats around when h e saying, but
00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:27.720
Yeah,
00:14:27.730 --> 00:14:28.740
You just got to get a flow.
00:14:28.740 --> 00:14:30.539
B B, B the lawyer with the flow.
00:14:30.541 --> 00:14:31.649
I bet you, you get views.
00:14:33.149 --> 00:14:33.149
Yeah.
00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:37.320
You gotta look.
00:14:37.321 --> 00:14:38.610
You gotta look like the little bit.
00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:43.309
I didn't even on character.
00:14:43.590 --> 00:14:43.590
Yo.
00:14:43.591 --> 00:14:47.879
I told, I told Jay, I told her a joke the other day I was like, yo, J Cole grew dreads a little bit too fast.
00:14:48.029 --> 00:14:53.419
So I think those extensions and he was like, yo, I was like, yo, I think he got extensions in his head
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:55.490
One month.
00:14:55.490 --> 00:14:55.639
He
00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:59.210
Was, he got a skinny fade next month he had dreads.
00:15:01.330 --> 00:15:01.720
Nah,.
00:15:01.929 --> 00:15:05.230
We started thinking broke through that t hree o f u s.
00:15:09.220 --> 00:15:09.970
Yeah, I remember that.
00:15:09.971 --> 00:15:13.029
That, uh,, you got to go through that ugly phase.
00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:14.289
That's you don't want to come outside.
00:15:15.389 --> 00:15:15.389
Yeah.
00:15:15.769 --> 00:15:15.769
Yeah.
00:15:16.409 --> 00:15:18.580
He went through it, but he never left.
00:15:19.190 --> 00:15:19.649
Never left.
00:15:21.210 --> 00:15:21.730
You know what I'm saying?
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:24.820
2014 forest Hills drive.
00:15:24.821 --> 00:15:27.820
He just had a big bro bro.
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:32.529
locked up.
00:15:33.190 --> 00:15:33.940
Oh, you know what should have happened?
00:15:33.941 --> 00:15:34.750
I'm gonna tell you on some real.
00:15:35.409 --> 00:15:42.070
What should have happened was Kyrie should have got with J Cole and they should've made a stance like this Kyrie be in the front facing
00:15:43.419 --> 00:15:43.870
Voice on this.
00:15:44.230 --> 00:15:46.299
I think they got two different messages going on right now.
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:46.629
Y eah.
00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:48.460
But I'm saying if they w ould've got together
00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:52.090
And said like, yo J Cole is backing this that's the problem.
00:15:52.091 --> 00:15:54.399
I think with us as C, we get in too much in the episode.
00:15:54.400 --> 00:15:56.740
But I think the unifications versus the decentralization.
00:15:59.230 --> 00:15:59.500
I don't
00:15:59.500 --> 00:16:02.110
Know what this thing, this said 10 minutes, you know, you know,
00:16:02.950 --> 00:16:03.549
20 minutes.
00:16:05.860 --> 00:16:06.279
I know.
00:16:06.700 --> 00:16:18.159
I love taking a walk dog.
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:18.759
Literally.
00:16:23.330 --> 00:16:25.389
That's a family man, man, you can't go.
00:16:25.980 --> 00:16:26.919
That's the family, man.
00:16:26.921 --> 00:16:29.500
You can't, you cannot judge a family.
00:16:29.500 --> 00:16:30.279
Man's time.
00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:37.870
My time is not my own.
00:16:37.870 --> 00:16:38.320
My brother.
00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:39.639
Not my own.
00:16:41.830 --> 00:16:42.490
I'm good, man.
00:16:42.490 --> 00:16:43.960

You're not, you didn't make that trip.
00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:57.429
Oh no.
00:16:57.431 --> 00:17:06.160
I was cooking most improved player.
00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:15.130

00:17:19.930 --> 00:17:20.170
What's good though.
00:17:20.380 --> 00:17:20.799
Jay, everything go.
00:17:21.009 --> 00:17:21.910
We've just been chopping it up.
00:17:22.420 --> 00:17:22.720
It was naked.
00:17:26.980 --> 00:17:27.519

00:17:39.849 --> 00:17:39.849
[inaudible]
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:45.819
I had a visual, no audio audio video.
00:17:45.910 --> 00:17:47.289
We got a full corner.
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:53.690
Can't can't can't ain't got that.
00:17:53.691 --> 00:17:54.829

You do what he does credit.
00:18:03.890 --> 00:18:04.859
No, but that's good.
00:18:05.029 --> 00:18:05.029

He was petting his dog.
00:18:23.539 --> 00:18:24.680

Kenny Canon was just telling me like, yo being by yourself is different because Canon just moved into his car.
00:18:41.710 --> 00:18:42.170

G the type of go pick them up from the airport.
00:19:14.630 --> 00:19:15.140
Drop them off.
00:19:15.369 --> 00:19:16.130
You're gonna stay with me for that
00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:16.880
Two weeks.
00:19:22.460 --> 00:19:23.029
Nah, man.
00:19:23.030 --> 00:19:26.779
But y'all did y'all get the, um, the script type.

Uh, call it June teeth and Kyrie.
00:19:32.060 --> 00:19:32.960
I thought those were great.
00:19:33.410 --> 00:19:37.579
Uh, great opposing relevant sort of thoughts.
00:19:37.580 --> 00:19:44.960
So I thought that y'all would really have it right here, but just to start it off, man, I'm just like Jay said, you know, I'm, I'm happy to see y'all man.
00:19:44.961 --> 00:19:46.910
We don't really do this as often as we used to do it.
00:19:46.911 --> 00:19:49.819
So we always recording now.
00:19:54.559 --> 00:19:57.230
Hey Mike, the mic, the mic cut.
00:19:57.259 --> 00:20:00.650
Don't be like Jesse Jackson out here and say some wild about Obama while the mic is u p.
00:20:01.430 --> 00:20:02.210
I don't know if y'all remember.
00:20:04.250 --> 00:20:05.839
U h, yeah, we r ecorded everything.
00:20:05.840 --> 00:20:10.130
I got it recorded on zoom and I got a recording for the, for the people right here.
00:20:10.131 --> 00:20:12.740
I just want to make sure I hear everybody c an, can y'all hear me good.
00:20:14.119 --> 00:20:14.509
Yes, sir.
00:20:16.009 --> 00:20:16.880
Welcome to the coffee guys.
00:20:16.881 --> 00:20:17.509
Welcome to the cubby.
00:20:17.510 --> 00:20:18.500
Another edition.
00:20:18.859 --> 00:20:22.970
This is a, another edition that we're coming back for during this pandemic.
00:20:23.210 --> 00:20:36.920
During these marching times, during these protest times, this your host T Lou T Lou dude, what to do as you know, we have our cast members here trying to get through the quarantine times, getting through the pandemic times as best as possible.
00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:40.609
And what way to do that better than just to speak to the people that you're close with.
00:20:40.970 --> 00:20:41.960
So we got our people right here.
00:20:41.961 --> 00:20:45.170
I'm going to go with we on zoom and we recorded.
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:48.509
We on zoom and we recorded.
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:53.109
So I'm going to go for my I'm going to go from my right to left and just have them introduce themselves.
00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:55.359
Once again, you're listening to the cubby.
00:20:55.361 --> 00:20:56.109
What is the cubby?
00:20:56.410 --> 00:21:01.329
The cubby is four to five, five to four black men coming together in this society.
00:21:01.630 --> 00:21:07.329
Try to get you from point a to point B, just relating to you on a lot of these different topics, whatever that you're going through.
00:21:07.589 --> 00:21:10.059
Doesn't matter what color or creed that you come from.
00:21:10.269 --> 00:21:15.880
But it's important to understand each and every one of our points a nd places, we all come from different areas of the country.
00:21:16.599 --> 00:21:20.950
W e got three of us in California and we got one man that wrote that.
00:21:20.951 --> 00:21:21.940
He's about to introduce himself.
00:21:21.970 --> 00:21:22.599
He's from Detroit.
00:21:22.630 --> 00:21:24.880
So go ahead, my man to my right.
00:21:25.890 --> 00:21:26.339
All right.
00:21:26.369 --> 00:21:26.970
All right, man.
00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:27.450
Well, good.
00:21:27.451 --> 00:21:28.079
What up though?
00:21:28.500 -->
00:21:28.500
Boy.
00:21:29.190 --> 00:21:31.529
See Thomas on the ground.
00:21:32.190 --> 00:21:32.549
I'm alive.
00:21:34.589 --> 00:21:35.170
They'll call it out here.
00:21:35.369 --> 00:21:35.490
Even though
00:21:38.549 --> 00:21:40.289
Know like a J Cole.
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:41.460
You know what I'm saying?
00:21:41.549 --> 00:21:43.650
It's a lot going on, man, but I'm happy to be there.
00:21:45.299 --> 00:21:45.480
All right.
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:46.559
So keep going around, man.
00:21:46.710 --> 00:21:47.849
I'm I'm really happy to see y'all man.
00:21:48.660 --> 00:21:48.990
All right.
00:21:48.990 --> 00:21:49.740
What's going on, man.
00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:50.130
Jay dub.
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:50.609
Deuces.
00:21:50.611 --> 00:21:51.000
What's up?
00:21:51.000 --> 00:21:51.750
Well, mr.
00:21:51.750 --> 00:21:56.250
Guys, I'll be casting full of facts just out here, living my best life.
00:21:56.579 --> 00:21:59.640
Trying to stay sane sober week.
00:22:00.750 --> 00:22:03.359
Um, no, just kind of making the best of all the situations, man.
00:22:06.029 --> 00:22:06.029
Like
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:08.849
Yo Jay, you just came back from walking blue, right?
00:22:10.269 --> 00:22:10.269
Yeah.
00:22:10.270 --> 00:22:10.950
Yeah.
00:22:12.210 --> 00:22:13.200
Especially with the family time, man
00:22:13.950 --> 00:22:19.440
Is blue like more aware of other people around them than normal.
00:22:19.619 --> 00:22:20.279
Does that make sense?
00:22:20.280 --> 00:22:29.819
I'm trying to say just because he's been quarantined, I don't know if he's going outside as much as he usually does, but I can probably assume that he's not as friendly towards others as he used to be.
00:22:29.820 --> 00:22:30.299
But I guess
00:22:32.299 --> 00:22:33.150
He's just blue man.
00:22:34.890 --> 00:22:35.490
You got a smell.
00:22:35.589 --> 00:22:36.569
You gone, he gonna run through you.
00:22:37.220 --> 00:22:38.160
You gonna get a phone that
00:22:38.160 --> 00:22:39.750
Big dog i s still running t he people.
00:22:43.559 --> 00:22:44.160
H i man.
00:22:44.161 --> 00:22:47.940
And our last cast member t here, he just came in a nd out from the video.
00:22:47.941 --> 00:22:50.519
I don't know what h e'd d one, but you got i t, man.
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:55.349
GP, GP music, bro.
00:22:57.450 --> 00:22:58.049
I'm on the ground.
00:22:59.190 --> 00:23:00.390
I would say it for you, man.
00:23:02.369 --> 00:23:02.880
I miss that.
00:23:04.019 --> 00:23:04.470
But yeah man.
00:23:04.471 --> 00:23:20.069
So, so today is June 10th and I think it's important for us all to recognize that today's Juneteenth is a very important day for our community in general, but you guys know there's been a lot of stuff in the, in the news going back and forth terms in terms of what we're going to do and how we're celebrating today.
00:23:20.070 --> 00:23:27.210
So first of all, I want to say happy Juneteenth to all you guys are listening and happy, happy John team to
everybody.
00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:32.400
We gotta keep saying that louder and louder for us to know and recognize what this day means to us.
00:23:32.549 --> 00:23:36.900
So I want to ask a straightforward question to our cast members before we get started.
00:23:36.901 --> 00:23:42.059
I would just want to know what is Juneteenth mean to you and how have you guys been celebrating June team all day today?
00:23:42.970 --> 00:23:44.640
I'm going to go ahead and start with, uh, J
00:23:48.380 --> 00:24:03.950
Wanted to me is, uh, is one of the last is k ind o f the end of us not being out the loop, b ut r epresent t he don't know Trump made a lot of people educated t hrough it in his own words.
00:24:04.430 --> 00:24:09.680
U m, the last official d ay o f the form of slavery.
00:24:09.769 --> 00:24:16.730
So it's like everybody kind of being educated in that one little area of Texas people, not knowing about it two and a half years later.
00:24:17.359 --> 00:24:24.440
Um, so to me, I think the official day of black independence independence in this country,
00:24:28.309 --> 00:24:28.309
Man.
00:24:29.210 --> 00:24:29.450
Yeah.
00:24:29.450 --> 00:24:31.490
I mean, they hit it right on the head man.
00:24:31.490 --> 00:24:35.960
Just the true, the true independence for our people.
00:24:37.009 --> 00:24:53.299
Um, we all know emancipation proclamation that the motivation behind that wasn't even necessarily the freedom, you know, was really just to help them in the war and some soldiers who was fighting for the fight for the union.
00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:55.940
So he said, well, I'll come over here.
00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:56.720
You're fine with me.
00:24:57.740 --> 00:25:00.200
And so that's kind of the motivation behind it.
00:25:00.201 --> 00:25:06.740
And so I look at June, see, there's definitely that first time a week, we got that through independence from slavery.
00:25:07.700 --> 00:25:11.630
Um, and just kind of the beginning of working, where are we at right now?
00:25:12.589 --> 00:25:13.220
You know what I'm saying?
00:25:13.369 --> 00:25:18.980
It's transformed in a sense, but that was a very big moment for our people.
00:25:20.369 --> 00:25:22.549
So got some ways to go as we see what's going on today,
00:25:23.319 --> 00:25:24.130
You do anything.
00:25:24.131 --> 00:25:26.799
You do anything crazy for today to celebrate Juneteenth,
00:25:27.490 --> 00:25:28.180
Man.
00:25:29.029 --> 00:25:35.410
And I started working with a little bit later, you know, a little bit later, I was happy.
00:25:36.549 --> 00:25:41.680
I was happy about that because not that I worked with a certain point where I can afford to do that.
00:25:42.009 --> 00:25:46.480
So, um, that's kind of mean to me, man, freedom.
00:25:46.750 --> 00:25:47.019
Right?
00:25:47.020 --> 00:25:53.589
I got freedom in a lot of senses.
00:25:53.590 --> 00:25:54.880
I'm my own boss right now.
00:25:54.890 --> 00:25:56.410
So that's what I always wanted.
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:00.250
That's a lot of freedom right there.
00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:08.980
Hey man, I leave it alone All the time, but I leave when I want.
00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:11.500
That's all I just want to work.
00:26:11.500 --> 00:26:12.849
So that's a good thing.
00:26:12.851 --> 00:26:17.349
Independent and dependent on different forms.
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:19.509
What about UGI?
00:26:19.779 --> 00:26:22.450
You do anything special for today or what is Juneteenth mean to you?
00:26:24.160 --> 00:26:32.710
No, I didn't do anything special, but um, yeah, just a moniker for a day to be remembered a day.
00:26:32.711 --> 00:26:39.759
That means something to us, but not necessarily to the society as a whole, you know what I mean?
00:26:39.760 --> 00:26:43.359
And we need people to be awakened or woken to that concept.
00:26:43.829 --> 00:26:50.430
You know, this was only just done a couple of years ago, really in the grips with time, you know what I mean?
00:26:50.431 --> 00:27:06.839
So in the era and the climate that we have right now, people need to feel welcome to that fact that this is something that's always been allowed, but something that always near and dear special to our hearts has been, like you said, one of the last days we had t o ever h ave to really deal with slavery in that sense.
00:27:07.349 --> 00:27:11.339
But, u m, you know, we l ive t hat we move on, we push and we keep fighting for a n ew d ate.
00:27:12.089 --> 00:27:14.130
And I just l ook at it mainly, like I said, i t's that d ata.
00:27:14.140 --> 00:27:14.609
D o you remember?
00:27:14.611 --> 00:27:18.990
But also a m aster patient a s a race.
00:27:19.849 --> 00:27:26.809
I think that thank you G that this actually as well said in terms of how other people are viewing this day as well.
00:27:26.810 --> 00:27:28.849
And I think the masses should view it as that.
00:27:28.910 --> 00:27:29.240
Right.
00:27:29.359 --> 00:27:31.250
It's it's a day for us and it's a day for unity.
00:27:32.210 --> 00:27:35.690
Um, so my quick question to y'all and I know I'm going to get into the cubby rules.
00:27:35.691 --> 00:27:38.690
I know Canon just reminded me like, bro, what's up with the cubby rules.
00:27:39.089 --> 00:27:41.180
I'm sitting there like, yeah, we need to do those cubby rules.
00:27:41.181 --> 00:27:49.910
But before we do that, I think the bigger question is when did you actually become aware of or know what Juneteenth was?
00:27:50.440 --> 00:28:04.670
I really, I think that's a huge question for us today, but also what are we doing to highlight the importance of Juneteenth and how is that going to be nationally recognized if not already as compared to something as important as independence day in this society.
00:28:05.299 --> 00:28:07.579
Uh, but before we do move forward, I got to say the rules, man.
00:28:07.580 --> 00:28:08.869
I know I'm a little rusty i n t here.
00:28:08.890 --> 00:28:15.640
There's been some times where I got off, but the first rule of the c ubby is if
this is your first time listening, that there are no rules that h ave copies of s peaking.
00:28:16.279 --> 00:28:19.759
Second, o ne l i ttle c u p o f y ears, whatever you bring, you go t t o f inish today.
00:28:19.760 --> 00:28:20.750
I d one gr own u p.
00:28:20.750 --> 00:28:21.980
I got a little Starbucks with me.
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:33.319
[inaudible]
00:28:33.529 --> 00:28:34.519
Well, I'm not gonna lie to you.
00:28:34.520 --> 00:28:36.920
I can't keep track of how much time with be c anceling.
00:28:40.130 --> 00:28:40.819
You gotta read the message.
00:28:42.019 --> 00:28:43.069
Listen, I've been in quarantine.
00:28:43.070 --> 00:28:43.940
I can't watch everything.
00:28:44.299 --> 00:28:48.440
I, I can't watch and all that, but whatever you bring, you gotta finish.
00:28:48.441 --> 00:28:49.400
Of course I bought this.
00:28:49.401 --> 00:28:51.200
I'm gonna finish that reluctantly.
00:28:51.259 --> 00:28:53.720
Now, uh, the third rule is to be yourself.
00:28:53.869 --> 00:28:55.250
Cause ain't nobody worried about you in the cubby.
00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:59.809
The fourth rule is to stay on your P's and Q's because you never know what happened to the Covey.
00:28:59.810 --> 00:29:00.200
I love that.
00:29:00.201 --> 00:29:00.680
Pause.
00:29:00.950 --> 00:29:02.869
That pause really hit for rule.
00:29:02.871 --> 00:29:04.970
The most important rule is that you only have three times in a cubby.
00:29:04.971 --> 00:29:11.660
I know you guys have listened to us for quite some time, but if you are ever going to join us here in the cubby, you only get three times in Covey.
00:29:12.589 --> 00:29:15.230
So the topic for today, man, just because Juneteenth is so important.
00:29:15.230 --> 00:29:15.890
I wanted to know.
00:29:15.891 --> 00:29:23.990
And I guess the people wanted to know as mentioned before, what does it take for Juneteenth to be recognized on the same scale as independence day?
00:29:23.990 --> 00:29:25.099
And is that realistic?
00:29:25.309 --> 00:29:34.279
You think us as a, as a community, being a minority in this country that we could take Juneteenth and populize it or commercialize it as much as independence then?
00:29:34.730 --> 00:29:39.619
Cause in my opinion, I don't think that's possible, but I really wanted to get you guys' opinion on that.
00:29:41.349 --> 00:29:42.279
I think it's possible,
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:42.519
Man.
00:29:42.520 --> 00:29:45.789
Black people that do so much more than anybody.
00:29:45.789 --> 00:29:47.890
, we need it.
00:29:48.460 --> 00:29:51.309
If anybody needed a date, the whole country needs a day off.
00:29:52.890 --> 00:29:55.019
That's another point we get, we getting days off.
00:29:55.020 --> 00:29:58.079
But on the scale of independence day though, you, you think that's realistic?
00:29:59.250 --> 00:30:00.539
Cause I'm saying like independence day.
00:30:00.630 --> 00:30:00.930
Okay.
00:30:00.931 --> 00:30:02.369
So the country got liberated.
00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:03.930
Okay.
00:30:03.931 --> 00:30:04.289
Boom.
00:30:04.650 --> 00:30:04.650
Okay.
00:30:05.009 --> 00:30:05.819
Everybody get the day off.
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:11.460
But the people who helped build the countries and they get liberated, we all need the day off.
00:30:14.849 --> 00:30:18.960
Y'all want people exactly like y'all was doing t o u s.
00:30:22.710 --> 00:30:23.579
That's what I understand.
00:30:23.700 --> 00:30:27.420
The same reason we got rid of b read, right?
00:30:27.421 --> 00:30:28.799
This was happening o n our home soil.
00:30:28.800 --> 00:30:30.029
So we a re n eeded o ff.
00:30:30.809 --> 00:30:31.230
Y ou k now what I'm saying?
00:30:31.230 --> 00:30:31.559
Why not?
00:30:31.560 --> 00:30:32.430
We get Christmas off.
00:30:32.431 --> 00:30:38.609
We get T hanksgiving, all kinds of that it really ain't got nothing to do with black people.
00:30:45.180 --> 00:31:02.339
Well the only wireless brother, that's the only let's let's let's I think for sure, it's going to be a holiday, maybe not the next like five, 10 years, but definitely in our lifetime, there's going to be a recognized holiday.
00:31:02.340 --> 00:31:03.089
Cause I'll be honest.
00:31:03.090 --> 00:31:05.309
I just learned about Juneteenth like three or four years ago.
00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:07.920
Yeah.
00:31:07.980 --> 00:31:19.079
I don't think that made, I don't know if it was just like New York, East coast, Bronx, anything, but I know a lot of the people in my inner circle, we didn't learn about that within like the last five years, Jay I'm with you, man.
00:31:19.349 --> 00:31:27.390
I'm with you, the holiday, the history, the term, nothing was just a regular day.
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:36.210
I had a small Italian man.
00:31:40.049 --> 00:31:40.769
I learned about that.
00:31:41.869 --> 00:31:55.140
And definitely you can see on that one right there because I learned these out here.
00:31:56.819 --> 00:32:17.490
[i naudible] f i reworks s omebody banging on a d o pe.
00:32:22.769 --> 00:32:23.640
I learned in h igh school too.
00:32:23.641 --> 00:32:25.920
I learned about the word and just kind of wa s t h e h oliday.
00:32:27.990 --> 00:32:38.009
So I got to college an d l e arn t he history, but I ju st t alked it up to D etroit as being a black city an d a whole bunch of black people.
00:32:38.579 --> 00:32:39.980
But I' m a J on this one.
00:32:40.190 --> 00:32:41.720
I didn't know what Juneteenth was.
00:32:41.721 --> 00:32:42.380
I'm gonna keep an eye on it.
00:32:42.381 --> 00:32:44.359
I didn't know what Juneteenth was until I moved.
00:32:45.650 --> 00:32:48.589
Yeah, but it's just not, maybe it was the area I was from.
00:32:48.590 --> 00:32:55.910
It just wasn't like a thing like June 19th would come up and it was just the day after the 18th and the day before the 20th, you see what I'm saying?
00:32:55.911 --> 00:32:59.869
Like we didn't really have, you know, father's day is the big thing in June.
00:33:06.869 --> 00:33:10.539
The
biggest, the biggest thing,
00:33:10.779 --> 00:33:12.700
My father, they real is just an extended lunch.
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:14.829
Like really don't do for father's day.
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:16.119
Like real
00:33:19.109 --> 00:33:19.480
Was grilling.
00:33:19.509 --> 00:33:21.069
You know that ain't going on grill.
00:33:21.130 --> 00:33:22.779
But that's the huge thing.
00:33:22.780 --> 00:33:25.779
I think that's an important part about just the, the awareness of it.
00:33:26.019 --> 00:33:28.750
And I really learned the history when I was in Texas and now it came back.
00:33:28.750 --> 00:33:40.569
So for GE to say that he learned that in high school, I think it, it gives breath to us as a society, but it also shows just how we aren't unified in our history enough for everybody to know the impact in which it has.
00:33:40.570 --> 00:33:43.900
That's why I'm asking how straight out the gate, how y'all feel about Juneteenth.
00:33:43.901 --> 00:33:45.579
And if you did anything fun about it.
00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:56.440
So I guess that would be more of a regional this year is definitely the highlighted.
00:33:56.769 --> 00:33:57.349
And that's what I was.
00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:59.559
That's what I was saying about, about it being a holiday.
00:33:59.560 --> 00:34:03.099
Like now we got the internet and information is unavoidable.
00:34:03.190 --> 00:34:05.009
Like you can't, there's no longer the excuse.
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:05.589
I didn't know.
00:34:06.160 --> 00:34:10.329
Like now it's like was social media and just the access to information where the information is.
00:34:10.900 --> 00:34:14.170
There's no way people won't know about Juneteenth anymore.
00:34:18.250 --> 00:34:39.250
know a bout all these other random holidays, like hot d og h olidays.
00:34:44.199 --> 00:34:45.610
And can the banks close too?
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:46.420
Cause I'll be honest with you.
00:34:46.420 --> 00:34:48.099
It's not a holiday to me unless the banks are closed.
00:34:49.570 --> 00:34:50.650
They'll national holiday.
00:34:51.369 --> 00:34:52.150
That's how I know.
00:34:52.150 --> 00:34:55.690
It's l ike earth day holiday.
00:34:55.690 --> 00:34:57.670
We got what's the last new holiday.
00:35:00.010 --> 00:35:04.510
Like what's the last, like w hat d o you mean?
00:35:05.230 --> 00:35:09.219
Like what was the last r ecent holiday?
00:35:10.809 --> 00:35:15.909
Whether it's like p resident's d ay,
00:35:17.500 --> 00:35:21.280
They got rid of, uh, Abraham Lincoln, Dane and George Washington name.
00:35:21.369 --> 00:35:22.480
And then they just made t he p resident's.
00:35:22.481 --> 00:35:25.329
N ow I just know that because of the audio.
00:35:25.659 --> 00:35:31.059
Yeah, it was, you get a good mattress on that day.
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:37.949
We getting for June team,
00:35:38.550 --> 00:35:39.360
What do we do?
00:35:43.820 --> 00:36:02.539
Like what are we getting stimulus from ancestry.
00:36:02.809 --> 00:36:06.349
And you find
out if your parents was a slave and then you get like, you know what I'm saying?
00:36:06.351 --> 00:36:09.829
Like, are you fill out the little unemployment, filling your ancestry?
00:36:10.099 --> 00:36:22.309
So you're talking about reparations and if they can't find your record by$65,
00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:42.590
1800 hours.
00:36:49.130 --> 00:36:55.550
And I, and I think that bleeds into the next topic, like really just what is the community willing to sacrifice for radical independence?
00:36:55.849 --> 00:36:57.170
What are you willing to give up?
00:36:57.380 --> 00:37:00.260
And this, this bleeds into the, uh, the Kyrie conversation.
00:37:00.260 --> 00:37:05.090
I know you guys are big sports fans and you understand where Kyrie is positioned.
00:37:05.150 --> 00:37:08.480
So before we kind of move forward, I want to know where, where do you lie?
00:37:08.539 --> 00:37:12.110
Are you with Kyrie and or are you not retiree?
00:37:12.110 --> 00:37:25.039
And if you don't know the topic at hand, K yrie, doesn't want to start the basketball season just to show protests and align ourselves with the fact that we can be independent and show others the power that we have in terms of our society.
00:37:25.190 --> 00:37:26.989
So where are you standing on that topic?
00:37:27.019 --> 00:37:32.360
Are you on one side of the fence that says we should continue basketball and go back to everything that's normal?
00:37:32.760 --> 00:37:42.230
Are you stating the fact of s aying, Hey, let's put focus on these initiatives of our society and make sure that others understand that we n ot playing no games out here.
00:37:42.710 --> 00:37:44.300
So where do y'all stand on that incident?
00:37:44.300 --> 00:37:49.550
I'm gonna start with G really quickly because I know you played ball in college and just the different aspects of it.
00:37:49.789 --> 00:37:51.110
Where do you stand on that line?
00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:58.190
I feel like that coin two sides t o that coin, but also more sides to the story.
00:37:58.369 --> 00:37:58.820
Y ou k now w hat I m ean?
00:38:00.530 --> 00:38:03.320
O n one side there's, there's the business side of it all.
00:38:04.610 --> 00:38:08.599
Uh, t here needed to be money, an i nflux of money in the economy.
00:38:08.929 --> 00:38:11.210
Sports is one of those vehicles for that.
00:38:11.690 --> 00:38:16.489
It's also a way for people's att entions to be placed in one direction.
00:38:16.550 --> 00:38:20.659
And the sort of inject that euphoria that we miss fro m soc iety.
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:27.920
The other side of that is the personal side, you know, and tho se people that actually work in that labor force, you know what I'm saying?
00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:31.789
You got sports athletes that actually need that money.
00:38:33.500 --> 00:38:40.239
You know, they may have, it may be gett ing lik e, you know, 200 cash che c ks, bu t ther e are cos t s of living ther e.
00:38:40.690 --> 00:38:44.440
Co st of everything has went up since they've gotten that new money.
00:38:44.619 --> 00:38:52.599
So it's like they got to k ee p up with their own living arrangements, you know, Dubai game by game tech, yo u know, and some of those people really need that money.
00:38:52.601 --> 00:38:55.630
So I see why some players are saying, Hey, that.
00:38:55.630 --> 00:38:58.630
Like we really need to play becau se we'r e younger in the league.
00:38:58.659 --> 00:39:04.420
We're not necessarily a super superstar getting all this bread, but look, man, I'm a second year player.
00:39:04.420 --> 00:39:06.820
My contract is only 300 K for t he y ear.
00:39:06.969 --> 00:39:08.829
Like that' s noth i ng, you know what I mean?
00:39:08.831 --> 00:39:16.090
Or whoever the three meal, I'm just saying for t hem.
00:39:18.829 --> 00:39:18.829
[inaudible]
00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:23.039
And then there's the third side and there's the third side.
00:39:23.389 --> 00:39:31.409
That's the social side, the side that we're, we're, we're enlightened where right now, you know, the political climate that's going on right now in the social atmosphere.
00:39:31.411 --> 00:39:36.449
So it's like, do you want sports to serve as a distraction?
00:39:37.289 --> 00:39:56.579
Or do you want the players that are, that occupied 90 to 95% of these leads and are just as much as important as a voice in the community as a black diaspora is to give them an opportunity to stand up and say, what's right for themselves, or to shut up, shut up and play.
00:39:56.760 --> 00:39:58.409
Can you do both at the same time?
00:40:00.059 --> 00:40:01.289
That's the way we are with it.
00:40:01.710 --> 00:40:03.079
That's why we're discussing Tyree.
00:40:03.300 --> 00:40:03.300
Right?
00:40:06.139 --> 00:40:12.090
I, I, I, I grew up with GSA, but I think it's actually, you can really do both at the same time.
00:40:15.449 --> 00:40:25.050
And at first I was upset about the whole not upset, irritated, cause it's Kyrie, you know, that's his, that's how I view him.
00:40:26.130 --> 00:40:29.880
What you talking about, man, speaking his mind and you going to tell him that he's, man, come on.
00:40:32.280 --> 00:40:33.239
It's not just a fake word.
00:40:33.960 --> 00:40:36.510
He's not a, contrarion just call him a country areas
00:40:41.199 --> 00:40:42.989
Saying the man, bro, for speaking to me,
00:40:49.139 --> 00:40:58.440
Not my movement at all, but every rally leader versus Kyrie doesn't strike me as a leader.
00:40:59.400 --> 00:41:04.920
He's in a very different place where he's not playing and it's only came up when he realized he wasn't going.
00:41:05.400 --> 00:41:11.400
And he's super breaded compared to the other players and making his own league.
00:41:12.000 --> 00:41:12.449
It's just like
00:41:13.409 --> 00:41:14.849
Wrong with that, bro.
00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:15.179
Come on.
00:41:15.181 --> 00:41:21.000
Let's talk about it, us empowering ourselves in order to organize off of the talent that we have as a
community.
00:41:21.570 --> 00:41:23.099
Why can't we just get up and say, yeah,
00:41:23.130 --> 00:41:26.940
I can't even say those plans while you're a current employee of the NBA.
00:41:27.210 --> 00:41:34.610
Like I'm sure that's a direct violation, but I thought it was not about not entertaining the white people.
00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:37.460
If you make a new league, how are you not entertaining?
00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:37.789
The whites?
00:41:38.710 --> 00:41:38.920
Yeah.
00:41:38.949 --> 00:41:43.989
They're not, they're not benefiting off of it as much as they would prior to it's within the community.
00:41:45.690 --> 00:41:46.599
I'll put money in a pocket.
00:41:50.170 --> 00:41:54.400
But I do agree though, if black people stop cleaning, cause we always talked about it.
00:41:54.400 --> 00:41:57.429
Like man, the black people are like the sports entertainment, everything.
00:41:57.670 --> 00:42:01.179
We run, the music we run, we run the dances.
00:42:01.449 --> 00:42:02.530
You talk about the culture.
00:42:02.530 --> 00:42:05.530
That's our current culture.
00:42:05.530 --> 00:42:06.639
Like these basketball players.
00:42:06.940 --> 00:42:18.849
They say how people cut their hair, how they dress, like how they wag and then going back and forth.
00:42:21.070 --> 00:42:36.190
And so if the rappers aren't having concerts and the basketball players aren't, you know, given, putting on shows in arenas where the white people don't have no more to be entertained by i t just like back in the day when h e was going to M anny, it was still getting entertained by these s eats.
00:42:36.670 --> 00:42:42.099
N ow i t'd be kind of hard and then t hey'd go in and pick it u p right after they get off work.
00:42:42.369 --> 00:42:43.579
It's kind of like that.
00:42:43.581 --> 00:42:53.349
You just can't do hand-in-hand now yet we appropriated the basketball football and we dominate that position.
00:42:53.980 --> 00:42:53.980
Right.
00:42:53.981 --> 00:42:57.130
We dominate that, but we're still the players.
00:42:57.780 --> 00:42:58.659
The players are not.
00:42:58.661 --> 00:43:03.340
So what are they, what are they doing then that plans, how do they spend the rest of the year?
00:43:04.179 --> 00:43:05.409
I don't know what they do.
00:43:05.500 --> 00:43:05.980
I don't know.
00:43:06.429 --> 00:43:07.690
But I'm biased.
00:43:07.690 --> 00:43:17.530
I would love to see them play, but I get it if you don't wanna entertain, because the thing about black people are the biggest entertainers, but yet the poorest group is so backwards.
00:43:18.730 --> 00:43:21.909
That's because they're benefiting off the labor and that's how it's always been.
00:43:21.911 --> 00:43:25.960
You benefit off those that do the work as a society or as a group.
00:43:26.349 --> 00:43:32.949
So if you're going to either stand and I guess that goes back to what Canon was saying, Amegy was saying, so you, so the fact is that you have to pick sides.
00:43:33.099 --> 00:43:33.789
You can't do both.
00:43:34.929 --> 00:43:37.389
Is that the back you either.
00:43:42.059 --> 00:43:43.960
Yeah, but it's only one L eBron.
00:43:47.860 --> 00:43:48.099
Yeah.
00:43:48.101 --> 00:43:51.159
I think, I think that the degrees, right?
00:43:51.161 --> 00:43:54.190
You c an't be a f ull b lown p icket i n every day.
00:43:54.730 --> 00:43:58.929
I'm going to city halls every day and playing basketball full time.
00:43:58.989 --> 00:43:59.260
Right.
00:43:59.530 --> 00:44:07.599
But I do think there's a middle ground where you can be playing, use your position to be an activist.
00:44:07.929 --> 00:44:08.199
Right?
00:44:08.201 --> 00:44:10.179
Like they, when they w ant, I can't breathe.
00:44:10.181 --> 00:44:12.010
T-shirts, that's one of the first things that came up.
00:44:12.969 --> 00:44:13.929
I can't breathe th ese s h irts.
00:44:14.260 --> 00:44:22.059
And I think if they host that press conference, if they do their donations th at t hey're like, yo, this is in the honor of Rihanna Taylor, you know what I'm saying?
00:44:22.061 --> 00:44:28.750
I think if they continue to se t l ight on these injustices that we're going through, that's th e w ay to like, yo, all these white people are watching us.
00:44:28.751 --> 00:44:29.880
Let's use our platform.
00:44:31.190 --> 00:44:31.429
Yeah.
00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:32.219
But we did
00:44:32.219 --> 00:44:32.969
That already.
00:44:33.539 --> 00:44:34.739
Jay we've been doing that.
00:44:34.849 --> 00:44:34.849
Yeah.
00:44:38.630 --> 00:44:42.170
[inaudible] I think it should be an ongoing thing.
00:44:42.170 --> 00:44:44.719
Like it shouldn't be like, yo, we going to do this all February.
00:44:44.989 --> 00:45:08.599
I think this should be like, yo, if we're going to play this season, every single game, every single, every single, if we going to move and be showing up to work, what we work in, but working with these, we're constantly reminded like, yo, this XYZ, all of the money that we have, this have to be some kind of contribution to like police or to police, uh, black people who are being killed by police.
00:45:08.630 --> 00:45:14.719
Or if we're going to do it, if they're going to do it, I think they have to continue, continue to fight.
00:45:14.780 --> 00:45:16.130
Because if not, what are they doing?
00:45:20.719 --> 00:45:21.980
I want to respond to that day.
00:45:22.400 --> 00:45:23.360
I have a long term goal.
00:45:24.679 --> 00:45:26.809
Like my own selfish reasons.
00:45:26.811 --> 00:45:33.559
I would love that because then we get to talk about the NBA, but I just think people will get desensitized exactly.
00:45:34.429 --> 00:45:42.380
And over and over, it'd be like another NBA cares commercial board game.
00:45:44.630 --> 00:45:53.449
Do we have a solution or is it just what I'm saying is for Kyrie and Avery Bradley that message of we're no longer entertaining.
00:45:54.139 --> 00:45:56.570
I think that'd be more powerful than anything.
00:45:56.659 --> 00:46:05.989
Any of them individually on the streets, you heard their hockey.
00:46:14.199 --> 00:46:15.110
No, you go fat.
00:46:15.260 --> 00:46:16.550
If I don't eat or not.
00:46:16.550 --> 00:46:16.969
I'm sorry.
00:46:17.539 --> 00:46:21.769
Not, not, not if I don't eat, if my people are not respected to the fact in which
00:46:22.130 --> 00:46:22.920
I apologize
00:46:25.460 --> 00:46:28.039
And I, and I think, and honestly, that's the Malcolm good approach.
00:46:28.070 --> 00:46:28.550
Isn't it?
00:46:28.969 --> 00:46:31.219
Isn't that the Malcolm approach both by any means necessary.
00:46:31.221 --> 00:46:36.260
We're not going to put ourselves in this light for you to be entertained and smile and forget about the tragedies.
00:46:36.260 --> 00:46:38.179
And this is what cap was kneeling.
00:46:38.181 --> 00:46:40.130
Full cap cap was ahead of this.
00:46:43.070 --> 00:46:45.409
Not that bad to get a job, that's the problem.
00:46:46.340 --> 00:46:47.539
And that's not genuine.
00:46:51.739 --> 00:46:52.610
Now you're gonna get a job.
00:46:54.019 --> 00:46:58.969
So I guess, I guess, I guess the question is, and, and I, and I know we've all been a part of this community, all our lives, right?
00:46:58.971 --> 00:46:59.269
Right.
00:46:59.900 --> 00:47:20.360
You've been a part of this community, all our lives, you know, power, power to the people, especially black people stay beautiful, but it's one of the ideal factors or one of the problems that we considered within this community is the difference between being unified on th e f ront end and things always being opposing for us to not get things done because we have so many different voices, so many different views.
00:47:20.360 --> 00:47:23.989
What if we really unified on a strong front to say, this is what we're doing.
00:47:24.139 --> 00:47:44.079
Do you guys feel that we can make significant change in this or ganization, in this society, whether it Juneteenth being respected as much as in dependence d a y o r us b ecoming economically free, are these th ings, are these things that you see in our community as a pain point, us being unified versus us always having, u m, v aried opinions or co ntradictory
00:47:45.900 --> 00:47:46.469
Hell yeah, bro.
00:47:46.619 --> 00:47:55.349
I feel like this is a great time, A great time for change, a great time for people to stand together.
00:47:55.351 --> 00:48:00.809
We're already getting more people involved in this fight this time than there has ever been.
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:03.599
Like the revolution is being televised.
00:48:04.050 --> 00:48:06.329
You know, it's everywhere for anyone to see it.
00:48:07.019 --> 00:48:16.590
You know, without last atrocity that we saw with the guy, you know, having this neck, being kneeled upon, like it doesn't get any more degrading than that.
00:48:16.980 --> 00:48:17.550
You know what I'm saying?
00:48:17.550 --> 00:48:23.489
For people to have to witness and even as a, uh, as
a human race to have to see that happen.
00:48:24.360 --> 00:48:38.460
And I think because of that, that's been the biggest role up until this point, you know, white people have actually got on the test to see their own doing some despicable on camera.
00:48:42.030 --> 00:48:45.360
It a in't t here ain't no g uess what happened.
00:48:45.389 --> 00:48:52.469
It ain't no, if you don't feel something you just s aid, yeah, something's not right with you.
00:48:52.471 --> 00:48:58.679
If you don't feel something in a, in a pit of your stomach, watching that man s cream for his life, t hen he cannot b reathe.
00:48:59.250 --> 00:49:07.949
M ama calling out for the most rent a nd t he, and the g uy t elling him, well, if you get in the car, y ou k now, y ou w ill be all right.
00:49:07.951 --> 00:49:09.150
He's asking, let me up.
00:49:09.210 --> 00:49:10.170
And they're not letting them up
00:49:10.530 --> 00:49:11.190
Minutes.
00:49:11.190 --> 00:49:11.190
.
00:49:12.360 --> 00:49:14.280
I don't even e ight m inutes straight like that.
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:15.539
I a in't, I'm g onna keep it honest with you.
00:49:15.541 --> 00:49:22.019
Eight minutes and 20 seconds, 46, 48 minutes and 46 seconds.
00:49:22.260 --> 00:49:25.170
Someone o n y our n eck a nd his hands in his pocket,
00:49:26.550 --> 00:49:26.849
Three them
00:49:32.429 --> 00:49:33.690
It's, it's literally disgusting.
00:49:33.809 --> 00:49:34.559
It is disgusting.
00:49:34.710 --> 00:49:51.239
And I think, and I think that goes back to what, uh, GE was just saying about the allies now that we have, because of the blatant disrespect that we saw with, you know, rip George, Florida, uh, how are we treating our allies though?
00:49:51.599 --> 00:50:02.550
And I, and I bring this up because I think a lot of different communities are showing their support, but are they showing it in a genuine way for us to understand?
00:50:02.579 --> 00:50:16.500
Or are they just going with the moves and the motions, Jay, what do you think about that in terms of the allies that we have in our community, whether it's in the white community, the Asian community, or the Latino community are, is this genuine sort of support or are they just fixated on what's now?
00:50:18.030 --> 00:50:23.550
I can't speak for all allies, but I do know if we have actual allies, we need to embrace them.
00:50:23.820 --> 00:50:24.329
You know what I'm saying?
00:50:24.331 --> 00:50:30.079
Like if we have somebody who's willing to extend themselves to like, listen, I didn't realize she was that bad.
00:50:30.230 --> 00:50:36.590
Cause I think to your point, like the George Lloyd was just like a visual representation of what constantly happens in the black community.
00:50:37.039 --> 00:50:42.349
And I think a lot of white folks were taken off guard like, yo, this is crazy.
00:50:43.400 --> 00:50:48.110
Um, and I do think it opened up a lot of eyes, which is why we're starting to see such a diverse group of allies.
00:50:48.409 --> 00:50:51.980
So anybody that's willing to be an ally let's do it.
00:50:52.039 --> 00:50:55.489
But the, what I won't stand for is people who are performative allies.
00:50:55.670 --> 00:50:58.460
Like, listen, I'm going to do the black screen on who they are.
00:50:58.519 --> 00:51:00.050
I'm a write this post.
00:51:00.139 --> 00:51:01.820
I'm a retreat with this.
00:51:01.820 --> 00:51:04.039
Like I want actual action.
00:51:04.190 --> 00:51:11.900
Like if you're a person in power, like the dude from, um, Marina's husband or E's husband, the one that worked for, u h, Reddit.
00:51:12.349 --> 00:51:12.590
Y eah.
00:51:12.650 --> 00:51:20.989
A ctually t hat actually stepped down from a position, was like, listen, I'm stepping down from my C-level position, b ut I want a black person to take my place.
00:51:21.019 --> 00:51:22.460
T hat's actual a ction.
00:51:23.190 --> 00:51:28.039
I feel like if we have some people who are actual allies, I need action.
00:51:28.130 --> 00:51:30.260
Not just performance based t hings.
00:51:30.320 --> 00:51:31.579
Let's do actual a ction.
00:51:31.581 --> 00:51:41.420
So if you're willing to be an ally and you do have the ability and capability to be an ally, whether you're not in t he f irst m illion, n ot a C-suite person, but just stop the.
00:51:41.840 --> 00:51:47.420
If you see somebody m aking a n insensitive or bigoted joke, like, yo, that's not cool.
00:51:47.480 --> 00:51:48.050
That's not okay.
00:51:48.050 --> 00:51:48.739
That's not cool.
00:51:48.800 --> 00:51:49.489
Like speak up.
00:51:49.940 --> 00:51:54.769
I continue to be an ally and just actually be an ally, but I'm not g oing t o turn anybody away.
00:51:54.771 --> 00:51:56.179
Who's g oing t o h elp our f light.
00:51:56.181 --> 00:51:58.340
That's like an extra soldier on the battlefield.
00:51:58.550 --> 00:51:59.150
I'm all for that.
00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:06.429
Have either one of you guys had that experience with a n ally that you felt that wasn't being genuine GPO c annon,
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:08.440
That wasn't being genuine, that wasn't
00:52:08.440 --> 00:52:09.010
Being genuine.
00:52:09.010 --> 00:52:15.820
Like they, like you felt as though it was something that we're doing, just because it's on national news because I have,
00:52:16.179 --> 00:52:29.920
I haven't, I haven't actually had a, actually had a coworker call me like maybe one week after j oining a nd n o w as like such a, she was so uncomfortable that it let me know that she was g enuine.
00:52:30.550 --> 00:52:35.590
She called was like, honestly, I wasn't g oing t o do it, but I couldn't just b e quiet anymore.
00:52:35.590 --> 00:52:37.869
And I didn't, it was just bothering me.
00:52:37.871 --> 00:52:45.130
And I don't know if this is inappropriate for the word situation, but I just feel like I have to speak up and she just k inda like poured her heart out.
00:52:45.130 --> 00:52:51.309
And I was just like, honestly, like just you calling and just letting
me know how you feel was like a great start.
00:52:51.489 --> 00:52:55.719
But what I would like to see happen is like, if you are in situations, like speak up.
00:52:55.721 --> 00:52:59.139
And then we started speaking about her background family and law enforcement.
00:52:59.141 --> 00:52:59.949
And I was just like, o kay.
00:53:00.489 --> 00:53:03.909
I mean, like, this seems, t his i s a genuine as it is.
00:53:03.911 --> 00:53:07.539
And I'm somebody who I'm my New York mentality i s like, I don't really believe.
00:53:07.719 --> 00:53:11.829
Anybody says, I actually feel like she, her heart was in the right place.
00:53:11.860 --> 00:53:18.579
So I haven't, u nfortunately I haven't felt, I don't feel like I've been g lad anybody just kind of blowing smoke or g as
00:53:19.690 --> 00:53:20.110
GP.
00:53:20.110 --> 00:53:24.400
I know, I know you'll be in your house mostly, but any phone calls,
00:53:26.099 --> 00:53:33.780
But uh, randomly enough, um, my neighbor, my neighbor wrote a note and left it on my door.
00:53:34.679 --> 00:53:40.500
Um, she wrote a card and, uh, it was really touching, you know, it was touching and genuine.
00:53:41.070 --> 00:53:42.239
Um, she's a white female.
00:53:42.240 --> 00:53:44.130
She just moved in a couple months ago.
00:53:45.239 --> 00:53:52.110
And um, you know, there's, there's a really tight stairwell right there, staircase, you know what I mean?
00:53:52.110 --> 00:53:58.800
So when we see each other, it's kind of, you know, I, I know it's a little startling sometimes you just never know you'll run into your neighbor.
00:53:58.800 --> 00:53:59.460
You know how that is.
00:53:59.460 --> 00:54:05.760
Like at first, when we, our front doors are like two feet away from one another, so i t's l ike, Whoa, you know, see th em o ne day.
00:54:08.570 --> 00:54:18.480
But yeah, so she, she wrote a nice little card tha t sa i d ba sically, you know, just letting you know, you know, u m, I am cool, you know, basically, yeah.
00:54:18.481 --> 00:54:20.309
You have a friend in me, her e's my phone number.
00:54:20.311 --> 00:54:22.769
If you ever need anything, like yeah.
00:54:22.800 --> 00:54:24.869
If you wan t to co me over and have a drink, let's do that.
00:54:24.871 --> 00:54:28.739
And let's talk about som e th i ngs an d can I come over one day or whatever?
00:54:28.740 --> 00:54:29.280
So yeah.
00:54:29.280 --> 00:54:33.780
I invited her ove r like the next day and, uh, she turned out to be really cool.
00:54:33.780 --> 00:54:34.320
So yeah.
00:54:34.940 --> 00:54:37.760
So that's, so that moment got you guys together.
00:54:37.760 --> 00:54:40.489
You were unified in that moment through the tragedy that was going on.
00:54:40.880 --> 00:54:41.960
And I honestly think that's
00:54:44.269 --> 00:54:53.150
Yeah, because even in her notes, she said, you know, uh, there was like one day I spoke to her, I c alled her, y ou k now, walking, Hey, how you doing or whatever, I'm Gary, just going to introduce myself, I'm your neighbor.
00:54:53.929 --> 00:55:00.679
And s he's, I c ould tell h er that day you w ere kind of really trying to see how I was, y ou k now, or what my, you know, w hat I was thinking.
00:55:01.280 --> 00:55:12.380
And she was like, you know, that's not, you know, I'm not that kind of a person, you know, in case you do think that or whatever, j ust, you know, I'm being friendly, but it was good to know that, you know, she's a normal person.
00:55:12.380 --> 00:55:14.239
That's not being led by the color of someone's skin.
00:55:14.300 --> 00:55:15.199
So that was, that was awesome.
00:55:17.239 --> 00:55:17.739
I see it.
00:55:17.750 --> 00:55:18.260
I see it.
00:55:18.380 --> 00:55:25.940
Uh, I see it a little bit differently and I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm on the fence about it because I've been, I've been going to work.
00:55:25.940 --> 00:55:38.389
I've been having these experiences, but a lot of these different experiences where I believe not necessarily forced, but it was enabled because of the positions that I, I kind of surround myself in with people.
00:55:38.719 --> 00:55:41.300
So I had a lot of people at work that would reach out and do certain things.
00:55:41.300 --> 00:55:52.190
And I know when it's genuine or not, but the matter of fact that some of these organizations is, uh, is allowing or forcing some employees to have conversations already has me on edge a little bit.
00:55:52.940 --> 00:55:55.119
Uh, those are the things that I feel
00:55:56.119 --> 00:55:56.429
By that
00:56:01.340 --> 00:56:12.199
In different organizations or even in my organizations, it was a, it was an attempt for management or others to speak to your black employees in order to let them know where they stand.
00:56:12.469 --> 00:56:24.070
Now, my whole thing is, if you don't do that off a general tip of how you feel about a situation and it gets pushed upon you as a work item, those are the things that I kind of take, take a step back from and say, okay, where we right
00:56:24.070 --> 00:56:25.150
Now is this genuine?
00:56:25.179 --> 00:56:25.929
Or is it not?
00:56:26.139 --> 00:56:27.610
Now when those conversations happen?
00:56:27.610 --> 00:56:32.380
I think we can always pick out if it's genuine or if it's something forced to do.
00:56:32.889 --> 00:56:43.239
But, but I think a lot of people in this society right now are those that are part of the white majority or those that are not in our community are looking to be a part of this movement only because it's national news.
00:56:43.900 --> 00:56:47.289
And I think most of those times it's going to come off as wrong.
00:56:47.320 --> 00:56:54.309
So if you are going to approach someone, I think the best conversation to have is something similar to what Jamie said, Hey, I'm not too much aware of this.
00:56:54.311 --> 00:56:58.539
I don't know what's going on, but if you need me, I'm here to listen.
00:56:58.541 --> 00:57:01.030
If you need me to come over and get a drink, I'm here.
00:57:01.030 --> 00:57:09.489
If it's things of the sort of, well, we're going to go the extra mile for you to feel satisfied, I'm going to give you a gift.
00:57:09.489 --> 00:57:10.690
I'm going to give you money.
00:57:10.690 --> 00:57:14.260
I'm going to give you this just because now I understand that black people are dying.
00:57:14.260 --> 00:57:14.260
.
00:57:15.699 --> 00:57:16.929
Black people have been down for you.
00:57:17.829 --> 00:57:23.170
And now because it's national news, you are enabled or you are told.
00:57:23.170 --> 00:57:25.239
And I think a lot of people are told what to do.
00:57:25.240 --> 00:57:27.820
They don't really feel a genuine interest in doing things.
00:57:28.179 --> 00:57:30.309
And I can spot that out a mile away.
00:57:30.670 --> 00:57:32.710
If you do that, I'm not saying everyone's done it.
00:57:32.710 --> 00:57:37.900
But I have certain experiences where I have been approached with that was a genuine thought and feeling of mine.
00:57:38.050 --> 00:57:41.349
Now, that's not saying it's right or wrong because I can't tell somebody's true intent.
00:57:41.679 --> 00:57:43.150
Like they may come off a certain way.
00:57:43.300 --> 00:57:54.489
But if you do have that intent in which you do not really know what's going on, or you do not feel that way, state that upfront, don't try to work around it and then give the political answer in order for it to move forward.
00:57:54.920 --> 00:57:55.960
That's that's been my experience.
00:57:57.599 --> 00:58:01.260
Do you feel like it's disingenuous when they actually broken?
00:58:02.250 --> 00:58:03.599
I feel like it's disingenuous.
00:58:03.630 --> 00:58:11.309
If I get the nature that it is being disingenuous, I could only go with how I feel about the situation and if I'm wrong, we can have a conversation about it.
00:58:11.429 --> 00:58:18.809
But if you step to me in a certain way, and it comes off a certain way, I'm going to say, you know me, I'm gonna say, Hey, it feels like a script.
00:58:18.929 --> 00:58:20.099
This feels like a script.
00:58:21.449 --> 00:58:22.050
I'll tell you this.
00:58:22.050 --> 00:58:26.099
I feel like this brought out, you know, both sides as, as it always does.
00:58:26.101 --> 00:58:29.250
You know, both sides of both players on both sides of the field.
00:58:29.730 --> 00:58:44.550
Um, because even in my, in my little complex here, like I would never even think that people would be worried about it so much, but yeah, like I can walk into my complex one t hen, and a few o ther white neighbors up in the front.
00:58:44.550 --> 00:58:50.340
You know, when you come in, they had a sign, t he p osters in their window, you know, black lives matter a nd all kinds of s tuff.
00:58:51.420 --> 00:58:53.340
And I'm like, wow, this is crazy.
00:58:53.340 --> 00:58:53.940
You know what I'm saying?
00:58:53.940 --> 00:58:55.889
Like, okay, one time.
00:58:55.891 --> 00:58:57.210
But th e w h ole t e am, you know what I mean?
00:58:57.210
--> 00:59:12.570
Like, and then just this past weekend, you know, I see a pool and I have to call him a fool because he was, he's no t, he s topped in the turning lane, the far left turning lane to make a left turn somewhere.
00:59:12.570 --> 00:59:12.929
Right.
00:59:13.800 --> 00:59:17.820
He sees a black lives matter poster on the far right side of the road.
00:59:18.570 --> 00:59:22.190
This man hops out of his truck, puts it in mind.
00:59:22.190 --> 00:59:36.860
You he's in the turning lane, ran over three lanes of traffic to g o g o ing, rip the po ster d own off the po le t icket and go all crazy, ho p i n his car and then drive on t he light was turning green.
00:59:39.199 --> 00:59:40.789
This is bringing out both sides.
00:59:41.360 --> 00:59:42.800
Oh, how the hell was he anonymous?
00:59:42.800 --> 00:59:44.699
Everybody else is trying to be anonymous.
00:59:49.519 --> 00:59:56.900
Everybody saw you just throw a tantrum on a piece of paper, like so fast.
00:59:59.989 --> 01:00:04.489
I don't think every white person in the world ain't going to get, I was like,, did that really just happen?
01:00:04.639 --> 01:00:05.179
That's crazy.
01:00:07.519 --> 01:00:09.469
You gotta rip off a poster on a light.
01:00:10.730 --> 01:00:13.360
It's the same thing that happened in Huntington beach, bro.
01:00:13.420 --> 01:00:20.070
I was in Huntington beach and y'all the road was so divided on the left side was black lives matter.
01:00:20.170 --> 01:00:23.079
And people on the right side seemed like white supremacists.
01:00:23.110 --> 01:00:25.599
It was the most, everything I've ever seen in my life.
01:00:28.599 --> 01:00:30.130
Huntington beach is a central part.
01:00:35.309 --> 01:00:41.289
But the G's point though, like it's both sides and I'm kinda, I'm gonna go with Tyrese.
01:00:41.590 --> 01:00:44.079
Lot of something smells fish with the company.
01:00:44.800 --> 01:00:48.550
You know, like every company, it seems like every company has to make a steak.
01:00:50.230 --> 01:01:02.889
That's CR we know that people like all local bank of America said Ben, and Jerry's like, ministers, don't give a.
01:01:05.300 --> 01:01:06.730
If they look at that surface.
01:01:06.940 --> 01:01:11.699
And really think, you know, the people they live in,
01:01:12.820 --> 01:01:14.650
Dan let's have a real conversation.
01:01:14.650 --> 01:01:15.849
I hate that PR person.
01:01:17.170 --> 01:01:17.440
No, that.
01:01:17.980 --> 01:01:20.079
And so, you know what I'm saying?
01:01:20.081 --> 01:01:28.119
Like, people buying that, eating it up and it's, and it's creating this big storm of this is what I should be doing because everyone's doing it.
01:01:29.050 --> 01:01:31.030
And it just feels like a lot like lip service.
01:01:31.030 --> 01:01:35.409
So I'm with tea that I'm not necessarily fully embracing people right away.
01:01:35.739 --> 01:01:36.849
I'm a more so teaching.
01:01:36.860 --> 01:01:42.429
I'm not part of that generation, that camp that's like, yo, Hey, go learn on your own.
01:01:42.760 --> 01:01:43.329
You know what I'm saying?
01:01:43.539 --> 01:01:44.469
It's a lot of information out there.
01:01:44.480 --> 01:01:45.219
Do the research.
01:01:45.630 --> 01:01:46.750
Then there's so much going on there.
01:01:46.751 --> 01:01:56.500
I don't know, but I'm not, I ain't got time to just sit there and research how to be better to black people.
01:01:57.429 --> 01:01:57.429
Right?
01:02:01.599 --> 01:02:01.599
Exactly.
01:02:02.730 --> 01:02:07.179
I'm looking at other stuff about the LGBT community or the mental illness community.
01:02:07.659 --> 01:02:10.750
But I do know there's certain words I'm not going to say.
01:02:13.630 --> 01:02:14.500
And I learned that.
01:02:15.579 --> 01:02:15.969
I'll be honest.
01:02:15.971 --> 01:02:23.940
I did say though, that's where friend that's messed up.
01:02:24.539 --> 01:02:28.380
I don't even care that much to be disrespectful to that class of people.
01:02:28.380 --> 01:02:29.789
So I'm not even, you know, better.
01:02:29.791 --> 01:02:30.559
You do better, man.
01:02:30.630 --> 01:02:31.199
Exactly.
01:02:31.289 --> 01:02:33.389
And so that's, that's really what I want from white people.
01:02:33.780 --> 01:02:37.320
I don't need you to go out there and spend a lot of bread unless you're in a position.
01:02:38.400 --> 01:02:41.880
But really what I need is just in your inner circle in your daily, but you carry your phone.
01:02:42.030 --> 01:02:46.440
I can't measure that, but you see some o n like i t,
01:02:49.460 --> 01:02:50.269
I'm gonna take it from New York.
01:02:50.271 --> 01:02:51.050
If you see something,
01:02:52.340 --> 01:02:53.269
Say something safer.
01:02:55.489 --> 01:02:56.300
That's my point.
01:02:56.750 --> 01:02:59.449
If you see something, say something, I think we're all in this together.
01:02:59.451 --> 01:03:04.190
And I think just to, just to close this segment up, it is about unity.
01:03:04.250 --> 01:03:08.179
I just mentioned the Huntington beach view or where I was in Huntington beach.
01:03:08.181 --> 01:03:11.389
And just the division that I saw does not help us.
01:03:11.659 --> 01:03:16.610
And I, and I do want to praise a lot of the people that's going on to the protest because it is multi.
01:03:17.150 --> 01:03:18.469
Uh, it is very diverse.
01:03:18.739 --> 01:03:19.579
It is very diverse.
01:03:19.581 --> 01:03:23.090
If you are out here in these streets, I know cannon, he meant to a couple of protests.
01:03:23.090 --> 01:03:25.940
I've been to a protest or two out here in Irvine.
01:03:25.940 --> 01:03:30.230
I'm not sure if, u h, Jamie or G abby has, and that's no slight on anything.
01:03:31.190 --> 01:03:32.239
It's a pandemic out here.
01:03:32.240 --> 01:03:32.809
That's number one.
01:03:32.811 --> 01:03:43.789
I want people to realize that, but number two, but number two, the support that we're getting from these allies are those that are willing to be down with back light.
01:03:44.150 --> 01:03:44.840
Ma dn ess has been huge.
01:03:44.840 --> 01:03:48.710
And I do just wan t to put that out there, like Jamie said, support your supp ort is m an.
01:03:48.889 --> 01:03:51.110
And that, an d tha t's always a huge thing that we do.
01:03:51.409 --> 01:03:52.929
I think I'm going to get into the fact s, ma n.
01:03:52.940 --> 01:03:54.710
I know you guys got a couple of facts that you deal with.
01:03:54.710 --> 01:04:03.820
You mentioned that one of the facts that I had w as b lac k economic independence will lead to another civil war.
01:04:07.820 --> 01:04:07.820
Okay.
01:04:08.460 --> 01:04:14.210
Imagine if the biggest demographic consumer demographic just says, it.
01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:20.989
This has happened before fellows it's happened before, when t here's b een the resources said, it.
01:04:21.409 --> 01:04:23.809
The world became divided fa cts.
01:04:23.840 --> 01:04:25.039
I want to know y' all o pinion on that.
01:04:26.510 --> 01:04:28.099
Nah, man, that's right on the money.
01:04:28.280 --> 01:04:30.650
I mean, you saw what happened with the black wall street.
01:04:31.239 --> 01:04:40.639
So they see black people getting some money, not a granddaughter from years ago, but they was making serious cheese and that blue up, do wn w i th i t k i lled t he whole to wn.
01:04:40.699 --> 01:04:42.650
Ca use e v erybody d o wnward.
01:04:43.070 --> 01:04:55.039
So if w e really became producers to where we were independent as a people, almost like people are, I d e al w ith people, yo u g o t t o t h ink b a ck a nd they go od.
01:04:56.300 --> 01:04:59.000
They're excellent at dealing within their own co mmunity.
01:04:59.780 --> 01:05:12.409
And they bu ilt s uch a ni ce b ridge and network that it c an't really get that, you know, to d i sturbed f rom the outside that this is over years and years and years to o t h ough.
01:05:12.739 --> 01:05:14.329
I mean, and they also Je wish.
01:05:16.579 --> 01:05:43.929
So J ewish Jewish, wh ile w e c a n d o, I don't know if you ever saw the fa mily, but if you pay attention to that video, he shows like his family years go ing f r om l i ke 2 0, 20, 2,400 to 3,200 fa milies.
01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:57.280
And one of the periods of the year though, it was like sil ver wa r between black people and wh i te an d 3, 200 or whatever the year was bla ck pe o ple.
01:06:01.030 --> 01:06:02.769
B ut I do think it' s go ing to have to take the ci vil war.
01:06:02.771 --> 01:06:06.190
I mean, that's the only whatever they ever had.
01:06:06.940 --> 01:06:07.510
They took it.
01:06:08.320 --> 01:06:08.530
Yea h.
01:06:08.539 --> 01:06:15.820
T hey bro ught it That we didn't have right hand.
01:06:23.210 --> 01:06:26.199
We h ave, we have a n h our,
01:06:30.000 --> 01:06:31.530
But now man, that's a fact, man.
01:06:31.710 --> 01:06:34.530
I know another fact that I always tell people is that yo, you need white friends.
01:06:36.030 --> 01:06:43.079
If you don't got white friends, white friends, if you don't have white friends in 2020, I don't think you understand the full picture.
01:06:43.590 --> 01:06:49.739
I don't, I don't think it's good to not have a diverse mindset or just to be able to sympathize with another group.
01:06:50.190 --> 01:06:51.630
So if you don't have white friends, get somebody
01:06:52.710 --> 01:06:55.800
Friends, give me friends like my friends,
01:06:56.909 --> 01:06:57.929
Honestly too.
01:06:58.920 --> 01:06:59.789
Come on now.
01:07:00.300 --> 01:07:00.809
Wait, hold on.
01:07:00.811 --> 01:07:02.039
Not one of y'all g ot t o wait for him.
01:07:02.039 --> 01:07:10.949
, you ain't got one white person you can call on and be like, yo, this is some bro.
01:07:11.250 --> 01:07:11.880
Like, what's your,
01:07:11.880 --> 01:07:12.570
I don't know, man.
01:07:13.980 --> 01:07:23.280
I'm not as strong as the other one needs to be the other way around every white friend that every white person,
01:07:28.409 --> 01:07:32.969
If a black, if a black person has a white friend, white people don't have black
01:07:32.969 --> 01:07:33.239
Friends.
01:07:35.039 --> 01:07:35.309
So
01:07:35.309 --> 01:07:38.099
It's not mutually exclusive is what you're telling me.
01:07:41.099 --> 01:07:44.070
I agree with Jean on that one b ecause, because you g ot t o think about i t.
01:07:44.070 --> 01:07:46.769
Like in society, we always get the white perspective.
01:07:47.010 --> 01:07:52.079
Like more times than not, we get exposed to white people's perspective o n t hings.
01:07:53.119 --> 01:07:54.030
T he people in power.
01:07:55.889 --> 01:08:00.269
T hey're the ones that don't run this, hire these don't hire these.
01:08:00.750 --> 01:08:14.309
S o I think it's important for a white person to understand like, okay, this is a f lat and t his black p erson educating them to t hings because I may be so blind to what a black p erson i s going to put on a white person.
01:08:14.579 --> 01:08:26.210
I m ean, but a person we already exposed to white people t hroughout you can't avoid t his i mpossible k ind o f l ike t hat p hrase for lack of a better phrase.
01:08:26.211 --> 01:08:27.289
Like you need a woman's touch.
01:08:29.329 --> 01:08:38.869
Sometimes black woman's touch you.
01:08:39.289 --> 01:08:42.920
Seeing the life through one, one particular sk ill p erspective.
01:08:44.289 --> 01:08:48.859
Your whole time of existence al l o v er T V.
01:08:50.539 --> 01:08:51.289
You know what I'm saying?
01:08:52.850 --> 01:08:57.800
The white ma n c e ntral, what I'm saying like th is c ountry is representative of white men.
01:08:58.039 --> 01:09:02.060
Y'all got a question for y'all would y'all be upset if a white man told you that this is a white country.
01:09:02.060 --> 01:09:02.060
.
01:09:04.399 --> 01:09:13.460
If he, after it, let's talk about, I wo uldn't b e upset.
01:09:13.489 --> 01:09:14.779
Yes, I couldn't.
01:09:14.780 --> 01:09:28.579
I couldn't help bu t b e upset, but I h a I, I co
uldn't, I fe ll a way and I wo uld b e de ad b ecause of the phone that is delivered automatically subservient to you.
01:09:29.930 --> 01:09:34.729
He's a white man and he's no t l ike, he's li ke, li terally l ike, yo, this is a white ma n's c o untry.
01:09:35.630 --> 01:09:36.829
You can't do nothing about it.
01:09:39.310 --> 01:09:42.920
No, no, no, no matter what.
01:09:44.779 --> 01:09:44.989
No.
01:09:45.289 --> 01:10:08.090
Why can't you just say this is a a n d A merica country[i naudible] s ound like a memo.
01:10:10.430 --> 01:10:15.560
Be to w as letting us know in c a se I forgot.
01:10:18.279 --> 01:10:20.949
I think, I think those two f acts w as w arranted.
01:10:22.300 --> 01:10:23.949
U m, yeah, I know.
01:10:23.979 --> 01:10:32.680
I know we discussed a lot of today about, u h, t he diversity of our country and just having the different effects that the recent activities has done.
01:10:32.680 --> 01:10:36.279
But let's show some love a little bit go into, I l ove hi s l ove statement, man.
01:10:36.310 --> 01:10:45.939
I wa nna, I wa nna s tart with, u h, m y love is love statement because I feel like everyone, especially during these times, comedy clubs need to open and they are be open.
01:10:45.970 --> 01:10:49.779
They will be opening up, but comedy is life man.
01:10:49.840 --> 01:10:56.949
And I know that's something that people don't want to hear ca use i t does inject a lot of different, u m, s tereotypes in being dismissive.
01:10:56.979 --> 01:10:59.260
But comedy is about truth.
01:10:59.680 --> 01:11:04.899
And if you speak truth, and if you hold everybody to the same standards, then we ca n a ll that for ourselves at some point in time.
01:11:05.079 --> 01:11:10.779
And it might not be the right moment now, but it will come back to a time where we're h onest and we do get to v oice our own op inion.
01:11:10.789 --> 01:11:12.130
So comedy is life.
01:11:12.399 --> 01:11:13.890
Life is comedy comedy li fe.
01:11:13.920 --> 01:11:15.090
Try to laugh during these times.
01:11:15.091 --> 01:11:20.399
If you can, with those that you're close with, whether you're with your white fr iend o r your black friend, it d oesn't matter.
01:11:21.329 --> 01:11:28.739
Just try to try to laugh as much as possible who got that Ca non G J you guys go t i t.
01:11:28.740 --> 01:11:29.460
Lo ves l ove statement.
01:11:31.159 --> 01:11:33.710
Um, I just, I just was thinking of one a s y ou w ere talking, man.
01:11:33.800 --> 01:11:38.390
U m, t hat's k inda like, yeah, just off the top, man.
01:11:38.390 --> 01:11:40.189
I think a good love i s love statement.
01:11:40.190 --> 01:11:47.329
Just kind of thinking, u h, in, u m, in the name of like Juneteenth simple love i s love.
01:11:47.331 --> 01:11:59.569
Statement is lift every voice I'm saying, like, I think i f everybody understands that they do have a voice and then we bring with t he, I mean, everybody do what they gotta do.
01:12:00.289 --> 01:12:03.079
U m, let us March on
until victory is w on.
01:12:03.081 --> 01:12:05.090
I think t hat that's an important song.
01:12:06.050 --> 01:12:06.409
Actually.
01:12:16.819 --> 01:12:16.819
[inaudible]
01:12:17.060 --> 01:12:19.550
The harmony of Liberty, you know what I'm saying?
01:12:23.390 --> 01:12:41.810
A song, but it's but just thinking about what that song represents battle, man, and it takes all of us and we really have to all speak up and actually speak up.
01:12:42.289 --> 01:12:44.329
I mean, just think about that song.
01:12:44.479 --> 01:12:49.760
I'm gonna walk the family through video and I think that should be the team tradition.
01:12:51.109 --> 01:12:52.310
Family feud, man.
01:12:56.479 --> 01:12:57.140
Yeah, man.
01:12:58.250 --> 01:12:59.960
Nobody wins when the family feud.
01:13:01.060 --> 01:13:05.659
That's a, uh, that's straight off the video from Jay Z.
01:13:07.039 --> 01:13:14.300
Um, and just basically like an additional throw in J Cole, man, they call had a rough week.
01:13:18.439 --> 01:13:22.340
One o f my f avorite falls love y ours family too.
01:13:22.850 --> 01:13:26.569
But j ust i n a t ime l ike t his, we got so much crazy going on.
01:13:27.050 --> 01:13:27.680
You know what I'm saying?
01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:29.420
We've been talking about how cr azy i t's 2 0, 20 ye ars.
01:13:29.421 --> 01:13:32.600
And it seems like it keeps ju st t hrowing haymakers an d.
