Speaker 1: this person not? Okay, They're everywhere. We are thrilled to
Speaker 1: be joined by the amazingly hilarious and brilliant Solomon Georgia.
Speaker 1: I'm happy to be here and my I'm also here
Speaker 1: for the pursuit of slappiness, the pursuits. I'm in the
Speaker 1: pursuit seven pounds to the face. This reason why his
Speaker 1: mom sent him to Belair exactly one little fight. Yeah,
Speaker 1: obviously we're gonna we're gonna have to talk about what
Speaker 1: I mean now we're we will we're compelled to by
Speaker 1: the culture to speak at length about what happened between
Speaker 1: Will Smith and christ at the Oscars. But first let's
Speaker 1: give everybody just a little sneak peek into what else
Speaker 1: we're talking about. Trump had a rally in Georgia which
Speaker 1: was a bit of a sad, wet fart filled with
Speaker 1: just the all kinds of ignorance but that you would
Speaker 1: come to expect at a MAGA rally. So we'll give
Speaker 1: you some low lights from that we'll talk about, um,
Speaker 1: some GOP governors who are kind of doing the right
Speaker 1: thing when it comes to these anti trans bills that
Speaker 1: are proliferating across the country. And we'll tell you why.
Speaker 1: It's kind of because it's not that their hearts are
Speaker 1: totally in the right place. It just you know, broken
Speaker 1: clock just right twice a day and all that, And
Speaker 1: obviously the slap discourse will have to carry on on
Speaker 1: this show when we will just kind of, I guess
Speaker 1: look back at what was a very eventful Oscars and
Speaker 1: you know an oscar is that kind of overshadowed a
Speaker 1: lot of things, good things that happened for people, But
Speaker 1: the slap is obviously the biggest thing on people's minds.
Speaker 1: Like I said, it's it's not often that you get
Speaker 1: like commentary from like right wing politicians, doctors. Judd Apatow
Speaker 1: would be Goldberg to and be like, everybody had something
Speaker 1: to say, and so much of it was not correct.
Speaker 1: We'll get to all of that. But Solomon, how you doing, man?
Speaker 1: What's what's going on with you? Yeah? I've been very good,
Speaker 1: just um just working mostly. I just I'm writing on
Speaker 1: a new show that'll be out in the in the
Speaker 1: near future, and I have a podcast coming out as well,
Speaker 1: so I'll be joining your guyst world. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I figured, you know, two, that's the right time to
Speaker 1: dip into the podcasting world. That there's not there's not
Speaker 1: enough of them. I think there's just well there's not
Speaker 1: enough good ones. So I would say, based on your
Speaker 1: talent alone, there's not enough. That is very true. I
Speaker 1: was like, I'm happy to do it, but yeah, and uh,
Speaker 1: just quick question, were you watching live last? I was
Speaker 1: not watching live? I was. I watched the Beyonce performance,
Speaker 1: which is all I wanted to watch. And then, being
Speaker 1: a homosexual man with a telephone, I received nine million
Speaker 1: texts about the situation from black people from games like
Speaker 1: every everything came back. Yeah, no, the same same I got.
Speaker 1: It was like it was more than like a fucking
Speaker 1: like remember when people in Hawaii got that like intercontinental
Speaker 1: ballistic missile will hit the island, Take shelter, And it
Speaker 1: was like like that was the level of alerts I
Speaker 1: was getting on my phone. It's not been like that,
Speaker 1: like not even during the election. Like I get it.
Speaker 1: But so before we you know, fully get into all
Speaker 1: the stories we gotta tell or we gotta let people
Speaker 1: know a little bit more about you. So and so,
Speaker 1: first we'd like to ask our guests, what's something from
Speaker 1: your search history that's revealing about who you are? Um,
Speaker 1: it's the most recent thing that I've searched is Rold
Speaker 1: Doll books. That's the person that I've been Uh, I've
Speaker 1: actually because I didn't, I got rid of all my
Speaker 1: books and that's all I've been doing is trying to
Speaker 1: rebuy stuff. And I'm also like, but also I'm doing
Speaker 1: it in the vain way where I'm like, what books
Speaker 1: will look good to people when they walk by it?
Speaker 1: Do I have to read it? No? But I want
Speaker 1: to make sure people think I'm smart enough to read
Speaker 1: it on the plane. And I do that with music
Speaker 1: fire Ship. I like to make sure the phone is
Speaker 1: like right on the edge of the table so when
Speaker 1: people walk past, it's like, my man got some good
Speaker 1: ass taste in music. Yeah, I'm just holding it up
Speaker 1: like this. You just holding it up like stretching and
Speaker 1: yawning with my phone just like toward everybody. So you
Speaker 1: see the song that I'm playing real easy, You're like
Speaker 1: you're stretching in yawning, but you turn it up the
Speaker 1: brightness on your screen. Yeah, of course, of course you
Speaker 1: got enough. So I get that. I feel that solument.
Speaker 1: I feel that you got rid of your book, But
Speaker 1: you mean you got rid of your I just never
Speaker 1: like restocked, like I've never had like h like I like,
Speaker 1: I probably like twenty books on me now, but like
Speaker 1: I used to have a whole like before I moved
Speaker 1: to l A, I had. I had. I had like books,
Speaker 1: like shelves of them. And now I'm all right, I
Speaker 1: need to get into the place where I have a
Speaker 1: bookshelf to show to show off. How does that? How
Speaker 1: do you feel like in the Kindle era, because like
Speaker 1: I books used to be like in college, my way
Speaker 1: to be, like, yeah, I read that ship and you
Speaker 1: could tell by the way the spine is creased. I
Speaker 1: did that before you came here, so it looked like
Speaker 1: I read this ship like and now like with kindles
Speaker 1: and stuff, I love the convenience of it, but I
Speaker 1: do sort of miss the physical actually read it when
Speaker 1: I buy it on Kindle. That's the things like I
Speaker 1: get out and get on like all right, it's there,
Speaker 1: Like it's just like not like I need to have
Speaker 1: the paper to like got you and get my Like
Speaker 1: it's like there's like a goal to finishing it that way,
Speaker 1: Like you don't know, like if you're in the middle
Speaker 1: of a book and you see a little fold, you're like,
Speaker 1: I can finish that. We don't get that from a kindle.
Speaker 1: It doesn't tell you're halfway through. And just like like
Speaker 1: do I need to got to like scroll? Like all right,
Speaker 1: I got another fifty pages? Like yeah, right, this was
Speaker 1: like you of the way through them. I don't even
Speaker 1: know how to what is if I'm not looking at
Speaker 1: the full thickness of the book, but I need to
Speaker 1: see it right right right right? Was like but yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's but but also yeah, I just like holding books.
Speaker 1: I like having them around. I like just the physicality
Speaker 1: of it. I like that I know that I'm killing
Speaker 1: something like a tree. Maybe absolutely, I don't know, no,
Speaker 1: I just but like I'm definitely like I'm not getting
Speaker 1: like new books and getting like old books. I definitely
Speaker 1: looks like I read them, even though it was hundreds
Speaker 1: of other people that did it before me. What's what's
Speaker 1: another book? So you got you got rolled, doll, I
Speaker 1: got the whole collection, the whole old doc connection I collection.
Speaker 1: Also because I just saw the movie. I got all
Speaker 1: the Dune books again because I read them when I
Speaker 1: was younger, and all I'm doing is buying books i've
Speaker 1: already read, so I'm really I've only just read. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's the ship that I remember reading, going like, I
Speaker 1: like that. I want this to be in my possession.
Speaker 1: That's right. And then if someone sees it, you don't
Speaker 1: have They don't have to pull your card. If they
Speaker 1: ask you about it, you know about it because you're
Speaker 1: like I read, oh yeah, definitely, yes, let's go, don't.
Speaker 1: I'm also very good at lying about about reading or
Speaker 1: watching something that I have not read or watched the
Speaker 1: movies music. I've always been like, yeah, I saw that.
Speaker 1: As I don't want to be the person who didn't
Speaker 1: see that and get that like, I can't believe you've
Speaker 1: not seen that. I'm like, I don't have time for
Speaker 1: that conversation. Yeah, they're like, you haven't. Of all the
Speaker 1: people that I thought would have seen it, it would
Speaker 1: have been you. You. You're like, well, sometimes that ship happens,
Speaker 1: all right, and I saw it, so you don't have
Speaker 1: to worry because of course I saw that ship. My
Speaker 1: go to is always oh yeah, yeah, I saw that,
Speaker 1: but there's been a minute. There's been a minute, so
Speaker 1: that way, you don't nobody make me talk about it, like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't remember it that much. I saw it when
Speaker 1: it came out. I saw it. I said, I watched it,
Speaker 1: but I was a little I was stoned. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's always easy and also true. There's
Speaker 1: like ship like people remind me, like you did see that.
Speaker 1: I'm like, really, you were your niece's birthday party was right,
Speaker 1: I don't remember, not at all. Like Solomon, what's something
Speaker 1: you think is overrated? Oh? Um? Something that I actually
Speaker 1: been kidding on my nerves? Likely is that complaining about
Speaker 1: gen Z. That's something that I think is overrated. I
Speaker 1: wish people like, especially my because as a blending I
Speaker 1: think we all became boomers very quickly. When when gen
Speaker 1: Z started attacking our style. I'm like, I don't care
Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, why do you care if a child
Speaker 1: is telling you to stop wearing skinny jeans? Right, like,
Speaker 1: because I wore the skinny jeans because someone else bullied
Speaker 1: me into wearing them and it was just to avoid
Speaker 1: Like I feel like it's I feel like it's just
Speaker 1: like it's becoming, especially since I spent so much time
Speaker 1: on Twitter, Like it's like literally all my friends getting
Speaker 1: mad at younger people. I'm like, what are you doing for? What?
Speaker 1: When did we become like this? Here's the thing. I
Speaker 1: the reason I hate it so much is because, and
Speaker 1: I've been saying this for a minute, every general ration,
Speaker 1: I feel like it's gonna eventually become exactly what we're
Speaker 1: becoming right now, because like we're just wired as dumb
Speaker 1: as human beings to be dumb as human being sometimes,
Speaker 1: you know, like and like who cares? Like ship gets
Speaker 1: old and stuff new comes in and like just embrace it.
Speaker 1: But all everybody was saying, man, I can't believe all
Speaker 1: these younger people or these older people saying this about us.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, all right, wait till we get older,
Speaker 1: like you can. It's also what obligations do we have
Speaker 1: to young? Like younger generation is meant to critique the
Speaker 1: generation Like, but like that I can wear whatever I
Speaker 1: want to the day I die, like anybody else says
Speaker 1: is about it, especially if somebody's younger than me. Yet
Speaker 1: somebody younger get that makes sense because they're creating a
Speaker 1: new style. They they're trying to make their own mark
Speaker 1: in their own generation, and that's what they should be doing. Anyway.
Speaker 1: I don't have to do what they're wearing. I don't
Speaker 1: have to wear anything, not a single thing. People. They
Speaker 1: fear the vibe shift. They only thing that I don't
Speaker 1: like is they don't have to struggle and stand in
Speaker 1: line for Jordan's like we used to. It's not fair now.
Speaker 1: They can't even get fair now, we now we all
Speaker 1: can't get them now, we all can't get them to
Speaker 1: be fair. Their first memory is nine eleven, so maybe
Speaker 1: right the first thing they remember. I'm like, you know what, y'all? Yeah, good, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like I remember joying this world, you guys at that.
Speaker 1: I fucking love it because some of the ship talking
Speaker 1: is so on point. I'm like, fuck yeah, Like I
Speaker 1: couldn't have even burned my own generation from inside the
Speaker 1: house like you just did. And I love. That's the
Speaker 1: ship I love. And like I'm more of like a yeah, like,
Speaker 1: let these kids just fucking flame us. I don't give
Speaker 1: a fuck. I think the problem is too for our
Speaker 1: generation like us. Making fun of gen Xtra is a
Speaker 1: little bit different because, like I think millennials feel some
Speaker 1: sort of ownership over like the Internet and like internet
Speaker 1: culture and the fact that like what we started now
Speaker 1: is giving way to younger people also having fun on
Speaker 1: the Internet and using that against us, and we're like,
Speaker 1: but hold on this, this used to be our ship.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, but guess what time goes on and
Speaker 1: like you're saying some homon should evolves. But I think
Speaker 1: that's like for them, is like that's their comedy is
Speaker 1: They're all very good at comedy too, like the amount
Speaker 1: of it's a bigger generation of comedians. So I'm like,
Speaker 1: how am I gonna like, I'm gonna let this flourish.
Speaker 1: I love like if you insult me and it's funny, yeah,
Speaker 1: that you deserve every right to right, especially like with
Speaker 1: a good observation, not just some like hateful just you know,
Speaker 1: just exempty right rhetorical ship. You're like that was a
Speaker 1: cutting observation and you were paying attention. Yeah, wow, Like
Speaker 1: at the assignment, there's this there's this tweet, y'all. Everybody
Speaker 1: knows Lacy. I'm sure I don't know if you know
Speaker 1: Lacey silbums but do a live show and the take
Speaker 1: us were ten dollars and the person tweeted her damn.
Speaker 1: It got to be super humbling to be on billboards
Speaker 1: and still have ten dollar shows. And we was like, god, girl,
Speaker 1: you can't even get mad at that. That observation is
Speaker 1: just on point and car right. I didn't even think
Speaker 1: of it at all. Like when I read that post,
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, I do to sleeve
Speaker 1: Like I worked, I write for television during the day
Speaker 1: and then I just go to a fucking bar show
Speaker 1: for a drink ticket said ten dollars. I was like, damn, yeah,
Speaker 1: that would be a step up for some of the
Speaker 1: shows I do during the right. Oh my god. It
Speaker 1: was like, oh, you ain't had to tell the truth
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, drive off the studio a lot to bar. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I get it, I'm stupid, right right, They're like right,
Speaker 1: They're like you valet your car right outside of fucking
Speaker 1: Lapu Bell like back in the day show just to
Speaker 1: hang out on the back back entrance that smells like
Speaker 1: a bunch of spilled over beer for a good chance
Speaker 1: of bombing, which is even better. Yeah right, why not?
Speaker 1: Right exactly? And maybe you'll see John Hamm walk by,
Speaker 1: because lord knows, just loves to be around a comedy theater,
Speaker 1: so it all bounces. Uh, Solomon, what is something you
Speaker 1: think is underrated? Um, I'm trying to think of what's
Speaker 1: going on right now. So I think it's underrated. Uh.
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of people are getting mad
Speaker 1: about it. Is not liking things. I'm a very big
Speaker 1: fan of not liking things and saying I don't like it,
Speaker 1: and especially movies and culture. And I think a lot
Speaker 1: of people I've said again because I spent so much
Speaker 1: time on social media, a lot of people like, don't
Speaker 1: tell people you don't like something. Somebody out there likes them,
Speaker 1: Like it's just the movie. You just say. It's one
Speaker 1: of my favorite things in the world. To talking shit
Speaker 1: is important to our survival and criticizing stuff that we
Speaker 1: watch and listen to. Like you like that's if you
Speaker 1: if you have to experience it, and you put the
Speaker 1: money out to experience it. I want to hear that
Speaker 1: you don't like it. I want you to tell me
Speaker 1: right exactly. I mean, I think gets one thing to say, yeah,
Speaker 1: my name, I wasn't really feeling it. It was one thing.
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of people take that as
Speaker 1: to being like and if you like it, you are
Speaker 1: fucked up and stupid and I don't know what went wrong,
Speaker 1: when or where, But that's that. That's the end of
Speaker 1: my take. It's rather than be like, no, I I
Speaker 1: don't like this thing. Yeah, everybody like, whatever the funk
Speaker 1: you want me personally, I do like it, that's all. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But also that's I enjoyed that too. Like it's one
Speaker 1: thing to say you don't like something that you didn't experience,
Speaker 1: but like it's gonna be stupid, don't watch it, Like, well,
Speaker 1: that's just unfair. But if you if you took the
Speaker 1: time out of your day to sit through a three
Speaker 1: hour movie, which is all of them, now, I want
Speaker 1: you to say you don't like it, and why yeah,
Speaker 1: because that's a three hour movie that I have to
Speaker 1: go and experience my damn self too. Right, I think,
Speaker 1: especially when you're consuming something, I think it's fair to
Speaker 1: give your opinion on what you consumed, Right, I think
Speaker 1: the I think where people don't know or the line
Speaker 1: where people don't know where the line is where people
Speaker 1: get confused. Kind of what you were saying, Miles is,
Speaker 1: you know, we also have a culture of what are
Speaker 1: they supposed to call yucking people's young type thing? Right, Like,
Speaker 1: oh you like this all your lane type stuff. That's
Speaker 1: also a culture which is very annoying in my opinion,
Speaker 1: Like if somebody wants to go to Disney, like who
Speaker 1: gives a funk? Right, it's kind of more of that,
Speaker 1: like who gives a funk what you like? But also
Speaker 1: who gives a funk what you don't like? Just don't
Speaker 1: get mad at me for not liking it, and don't
Speaker 1: get mad at me for liking it. I think that's
Speaker 1: where like people forget where the line is is. We
Speaker 1: can have it's consumerism and in the day it's consumerism,
Speaker 1: it's capitalism. People are allowed like if you're like there's
Speaker 1: people are showing money out for an experience, and as
Speaker 1: a customer, you're allowed to make a complaint after you've
Speaker 1: experience something. Yeah, yeah, you're allows to love something, you're
Speaker 1: allowed to hate something, right, But then as long as
Speaker 1: you're not going into like just hate and you're just
Speaker 1: like just say like you're just sort of using something
Speaker 1: as like a lightning rod to project some other ship,
Speaker 1: which is clear when you're like, man, this like this
Speaker 1: that wasn't even an assessment or an analysis of what
Speaker 1: it's like. This person just decided to say like, I
Speaker 1: don't like anything to do with people have face paint on.
Speaker 1: It's not stupid, And you're like, what the fuck is
Speaker 1: this nothing? But it's like, hey, there were so many
Speaker 1: potholes I thought I would fall through them. Then, yeah,
Speaker 1: I want to know that ship. Right, You're like the
Speaker 1: score Snooze Fest movie, you hate this? Who was the
Speaker 1: last movie you hate it? Yeah, I'm actually a terrible
Speaker 1: person about this because I actually like everything I watched. Oh,
Speaker 1: like other people like to be able to say I
Speaker 1: don't like it. Yeah, I want to live in the
Speaker 1: world where I could say I don't like stuff. That's
Speaker 1: just my vision. Well for me, like personally, if I
Speaker 1: take the time to watch anything, I do like my
Speaker 1: thorough research of like what would this, what would this be?
Speaker 1: And I'm like and very often because people sometimes like
Speaker 1: they have that wavery part of them, they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'll watch this because other people told me to. I'm
Speaker 1: not like that at all. I watched nothing. I don't
Speaker 1: want to watch fully at the beginning. Right, So what
Speaker 1: we're really saying here is everybody else keep telling us
Speaker 1: what's crap so we can do our research and don't
Speaker 1: watch that crap. Exactly that's kind of how it works.
Speaker 1: I just need three, like a few people whose opinions
Speaker 1: I respect to be like nice, she was trash, and
Speaker 1: then I'll be like, okay, they spoke, let me do
Speaker 1: a couple more level level like levels deeper. If the
Speaker 1: consensus still seems to be like that, then I'm like,
Speaker 1: all right, I don't I won't waste my time, but
Speaker 1: I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised if I come across it,
Speaker 1: like down the road, which just happened certainly where I
Speaker 1: was like, damn, a bunch of people told me that
Speaker 1: ship was not good and I actually ended up liking it,
Speaker 1: Like there are moments like that. But also, yes, it
Speaker 1: does help to also just trust the opinions because I
Speaker 1: myself do not like to like. I will only watch
Speaker 1: things that I feel like I have a high chance
Speaker 1: of me enjoying it because they're nine hours long. Now,
Speaker 1: so you gotta know when you're committing to move a
Speaker 1: film now you're not. You're you're giving away a quarter
Speaker 1: of your day, right, and that's that's and that's math.
Speaker 1: I don't take that lightly. Yeah, yeah, that's your time.
Speaker 1: Your time is worth everything, right, exactly, all right, let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break and we'll be right back to
Speaker 1: talk about some some news and we're back. So Trump,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, Um, he's got a huge gamble going in
Speaker 1: Georgia right now as it relates to the governor's race.
Speaker 1: He's currently backing former Senator and spooky Confederate ghost David
Speaker 1: Perdue in the primary against the incumbent Brian Kemp. And
Speaker 1: we know this because Trump's whole thing is about taking
Speaker 1: out revenge on people who don't kiss the ring. And
Speaker 1: for him, he's because Kemp wouldn't rat fuck the election.
Speaker 1: He's Okay, then I'm gonna primary you, uh and my
Speaker 1: and because I'm king Maga, whatever I say, the voters
Speaker 1: will follow. And you know, this is actually a good
Speaker 1: situation for Stacy Abrams, who's also running in the state,
Speaker 1: because any Republican in fighting will probably just serve to
Speaker 1: depress turnout on some level, whether or not, like if
Speaker 1: the Maga people stay at home because Camp, they still
Speaker 1: have feelings towards Camp or vice versa. Um. So that's
Speaker 1: all kind of humming in the background. But since Purdue
Speaker 1: is trailing about he's trailing by about ten points right
Speaker 1: now in the polls, it makes sense. Trump had to
Speaker 1: dust off his Maga hat and hit a rally in
Speaker 1: Georgia to try and prop up, you know, this candidate, because,
Speaker 1: as we saw earlier in the week, he rescinded his
Speaker 1: last week, he rescinded his um endorsement of Moe Brooks
Speaker 1: for being woke, which is the one of the best
Speaker 1: jokes I've heard this decade. So he thought, you know what,
Speaker 1: maybe I'll go to Georgia, get the people together, scream
Speaker 1: my usual bigoted bullshit, and maybe that will energize the voters. Well, uh, first,
Speaker 1: I just want to say, based on the turnout, it
Speaker 1: seems that the people might not really be feeling the
Speaker 1: vibrations at the moment. I think you can if you're
Speaker 1: in the dock. You can see this picture. The first
Speaker 1: picture was taken over the weekend. They say it was
Speaker 1: around five thousand, and you juxtaposed that with like a
Speaker 1: year earlier when they had like twenty thousand people show up.
Speaker 1: This is like and he wasn't. This was just I
Speaker 1: think maybe fresh off of the stop to steel energy.
Speaker 1: But it's clear that that energy is not really sustaining
Speaker 1: itself to begin with. Yeah, I think he is. Look man,
Speaker 1: we all do comedy, so we all are very used
Speaker 1: to going back to the well. You know, that's kind
Speaker 1: of what we do. And uh so I get, I get,
Speaker 1: I get going back to the well. But bro, like
Speaker 1: I'm thirty five years old, and I get tired. This
Speaker 1: nigga not tired yet, Like what is just come on, dude,
Speaker 1: you still holding people are getting You can tell the
Speaker 1: excitement behind it. I've never seen somebody hold on so
Speaker 1: long too, especially politically right like I'll Gore even stopped
Speaker 1: talking about Inconvenient Truth after a couple of years. This
Speaker 1: isn't again, still doing these rallies and I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: what is you talking? And it's crazy and you're right,
Speaker 1: like I think sometimes doom because it's all self it's
Speaker 1: all self indulgent. And and what I don't know if
Speaker 1: they get or not it seems like they don't, is
Speaker 1: eventually you're gonna start costing yourself. And what you said
Speaker 1: about the Stacey Abrams thing is correct, like the excitement
Speaker 1: you can on to this ship, but you're gonna start
Speaker 1: costing yourself. And I think that's where they're heading. But
Speaker 1: they're so egotistical. He sees those five thousand, ten thousand
Speaker 1: people and like their fees is ego so much that
Speaker 1: they don't realize like, I won't Trump to run again.
Speaker 1: I know people are like, oh, I won't Trump to
Speaker 1: run again, because if you do, all the motherfucker's who
Speaker 1: all us tired as liberals and leftists who don't who
Speaker 1: are tired of Biden gonna be like, well, I wasn't
Speaker 1: gonna come out with this nigger not getting back in.
Speaker 1: We're gonna come back out. It's stupid, Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: it's it's hard. Yeah, it's hard to know what's gonna happen,
Speaker 1: right because on one hand, if if Produce triumphs over
Speaker 1: Brian Camp and gets the nomination in the primary, that
Speaker 1: does say something about the Trump brand again. You know
Speaker 1: that it's like, oh no, they're still listening. And this
Speaker 1: is a big test, right because he's saying I'm putting
Speaker 1: all my chips behind Perdue. He's ten points behind, and
Speaker 1: if he doesn't succeed, then I'm I'm basically taking a
Speaker 1: direct l to the face by being like, like, your
Speaker 1: revenge plot failed, and that definitely opens up like a
Speaker 1: huge opportunity for whatever this post Trump GOP is, because
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, oh ship, they're not they're not into
Speaker 1: it as much. It's he, but I think it's definitely
Speaker 1: takes the eldo. I feel like that he should have
Speaker 1: gotten for a smaller, smaller counter race than this one,
Speaker 1: because like you're stepping your foot into this one, like
Speaker 1: you probably the better idea would have been to be like,
Speaker 1: I guess I should side with Camp this time. But
Speaker 1: it's he's but it also like a nothing that fails
Speaker 1: with him that he's reactionary. He needs something to react too,
Speaker 1: and there's no one, and he's not getting the news
Speaker 1: feed that he's getting so like his so when he's
Speaker 1: when he's out there, all he has the same tired
Speaker 1: thing he has to do over and over again, and
Speaker 1: they don't ring as a ship about that, especially his bass.
Speaker 1: So that's that's one benefit of not having him on
Speaker 1: the news every single day, uh, is that he has
Speaker 1: nothing to react to, right, and he's like barely watching
Speaker 1: the news because he's not in it. So he's he's
Speaker 1: just like it hasn't. I don't think she has progressed
Speaker 1: much past January Seventh's it's the same tired talking point
Speaker 1: and they don't think that's that you lose, people lose interest,
Speaker 1: and he has has something else and nothing else includes him,
Speaker 1: so he doesn't pay attention. Yeah, and it seems like,
Speaker 1: you know, with people like to Santists and stuff, people
Speaker 1: are responding just to just straight up out their bigotry,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like that's kind of what's
Speaker 1: You're You're starting to see these differences, and you know,
Speaker 1: like especially when it came to this sort of conflict
Speaker 1: between the Santis and Trump over like vaccines and things,
Speaker 1: or Trump was like, no, vaccine is cool, like it works,
Speaker 1: you don't have to get it if you don't want it.
Speaker 1: But I made that ship because he's trying to get
Speaker 1: the fucking credit for it. Meanwhile, people like the Santis
Speaker 1: are like, Yo, this guy is really talking about vaccines
Speaker 1: and ship like some fauci and you're you're starting to
Speaker 1: see those little schisms happened. But yes, I just wanted
Speaker 1: to touch on some of the speakers at this event
Speaker 1: because we had major league tainted Gang Green or Marjorie
Speaker 1: Taylor Green was there and everybody had just the most tired.
Speaker 1: Everybody was a snooze fest, like they couldn't even do
Speaker 1: bigotry in a way that was like energizing anymore. Like
Speaker 1: first David Perdue, he like wasted his whole time just
Speaker 1: talking about and he's like, and I'm still fighting to
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of what happened two years ago.
Speaker 1: Okay sure, And he like, and I'm the only person
Speaker 1: that can beat Stacy Abrams. I was like, fan, Brian
Speaker 1: can't beat Stacy Abrams last time they were in election.
Speaker 1: So that talking point doesn't even hold up. So then
Speaker 1: you get to Marjorie Taylor Green. She decided to put
Speaker 1: Q in on homophobia and climate denial in a fucking blender, uh,
Speaker 1: and came up with this really interesting sound bite. And
Speaker 1: you know what, being Bud can take his electric vehicles
Speaker 1: and his bicycles and he and his husband can stay
Speaker 1: out of our girls bathrooms. Yep work yeah, um, okay,
Speaker 1: you see, like I'm not joking. Put Q and on
Speaker 1: put like we're putting the Q and on predatory, like
Speaker 1: save the children ship in there a hint of electric
Speaker 1: cars are gay? Yeah, um car in his guess six
Speaker 1: dollars tell whom to don't take them electric cars? Give
Speaker 1: them to it like they're just so stupid. The bicycles.
Speaker 1: Bicycles are lovely they're lovely, they're nice, like if you're
Speaker 1: if we're talking about change, like that's one of the
Speaker 1: oldest inventions we have right now, Like that's not even
Speaker 1: a bicycle that came first. It's one of the first
Speaker 1: things we learned to do when we were children. She
Speaker 1: not know how is that? Maybe that's her that's probably
Speaker 1: why she's so mad. She never learned how to ride.
Speaker 1: This is oh yeah, maybe daddy wasn't there, the parents
Speaker 1: weren't there to teach you how to ride a bike.
Speaker 1: And now you're getting all mad because Pete Buddha Judge
Speaker 1: is saying to fight climate change, maybe we try some
Speaker 1: like carbon neutral transportation. And then the transphobia is just
Speaker 1: it's so tired. But that's the thing they just have
Speaker 1: to they just have to like evoke the top bikes
Speaker 1: to just say like, hey, remember we're against let me
Speaker 1: say electric vehicle because then you know, then we're all
Speaker 1: pro baby drill type bullshit. And then talk about the kids.
Speaker 1: And then you talk about the bathrooms, going into a
Speaker 1: women's bathroom like it makes no sense, like when you
Speaker 1: actually analyze the text of it, but when you're just
Speaker 1: putting fives out there, that's like me going to a
Speaker 1: wood tank show and being like, Yo, we got blunts, timbers,
Speaker 1: sucking O D B hologram, just topics, topics that I
Speaker 1: know people are gonna sunk with, but not I'm not
Speaker 1: really saying anything. And that's kind of what these things
Speaker 1: have evolved into. In saying it's almost it makes me
Speaker 1: miss old school like blatant, bigger trade, Like at least
Speaker 1: it's straightforward. I know it's going on. Just like that's
Speaker 1: like you want to just say the N word, but
Speaker 1: instead you're trying to they build this weird dog whistle
Speaker 1: argument that's gets more and more confusing, and you're just
Speaker 1: like you could have just been you should just took
Speaker 1: a whole shortcut and said the word you want to
Speaker 1: say that's in your head right exactly, Like this thing
Speaker 1: is all more twisted up than someone's five sea curls.
Speaker 1: What you know about black hair, You invested enough in
Speaker 1: about black hair to make one. Let me tell you.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you too, about these bathrooms. Man, let
Speaker 1: me tell you about these bathrooms. They arguing the wrong ship.
Speaker 1: Let's not keep people out of the bathrooms. It's add
Speaker 1: more bathrooms. We need more bad now that we all
Speaker 1: sharing bathrooms as we rightfully should. The lines are long
Speaker 1: as hell. We need to add more bathrooms so we
Speaker 1: can all share every bathroom. And got the two bathrooms
Speaker 1: and enough, no more, we need five bathrooms perpect and
Speaker 1: the lines and lines end of the day, we all
Speaker 1: have we all know the bathrooms at the city. We
Speaker 1: can take a shift in. So that's that's the life
Speaker 1: that we should live anymore. There should be access to
Speaker 1: bathrooms everywhere. There should be two per block, as far
Speaker 1: as I'm concerned for everywhere. Hell yeah, could you imagine
Speaker 1: a campaign and like if you're a politician, like and
Speaker 1: you know, with my infrastructure plan, I'm trying to make
Speaker 1: every public restroom one you feel comfortable shifting in. Hell
Speaker 1: about that? I want on it so people can put
Speaker 1: won't be afraid to put their asses on the seats
Speaker 1: because they know they are being properly cleaned and maintained.
Speaker 1: That is all I'm running on. Do I know anything
Speaker 1: about any geopolitics? No, no, but no, But the grove
Speaker 1: shouldn't have the best bathroom in l A. Everywhere should
Speaker 1: be a grove bathroom should be that can invest in
Speaker 1: self cleaning toilet like like a self cleaning bathroom like
Speaker 1: it's hose down between every use. Wait, gives you better
Speaker 1: watch out talking about the growth bathroom because Rick Caruso
Speaker 1: is running for mayor and he's gonna be like thinking,
Speaker 1: think about how pristine the bathrooms are my shopping facility.
Speaker 1: I would bring that plant the entire city while also
Speaker 1: doing regular sweeps of the house and brutalizing them to
Speaker 1: make way from our parking lots. You just made. You
Speaker 1: just made the choice more difficult, Rick Caruso working up
Speaker 1: running on every every bathroom is a grow bathroom taken. Also,
Speaker 1: just to check back in with the Trump thing, um
Speaker 1: herschel Walker, right, we have to talk about herschel Walker
Speaker 1: be us. This man former football player has no business
Speaker 1: running for office aside from the Trump's racist as being like, well,
Speaker 1: if I want to take a black senator down in
Speaker 1: the election, I should put in a black man to
Speaker 1: also run against him, because that's how my man dingo
Speaker 1: fight loving brain works and that's what I'm trying to do.
Speaker 1: So herschel Walker, who many are like he wasn't even
Speaker 1: living in Georgia like when he was announcing his candidacy.
Speaker 1: He also spoke at this rally and I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: not joking. It was like I felt bad for him
Speaker 1: because it looked like someone doing a shitty improv scene
Speaker 1: where he was having to pretend to be a GOP
Speaker 1: candidate for the Senate because nothing was coming out right.
Speaker 1: And this is poor Herschel. Walker is contrary. People want
Speaker 1: to ask me all the time while I'm running, I'm
Speaker 1: sick and tired. I'm sick and tired. I didn't want
Speaker 1: to teach CTR and in school critical race theory. Can
Speaker 1: you tell me what that means? We're Americans. We're not black,
Speaker 1: we're not white, We're America. I'm tired this critical in
Speaker 1: the school. When I come back from the ship, right, CTR,
Speaker 1: you may be worried about that, cte Herschel, I'm sick
Speaker 1: and tired. What do you sound like the racist that
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle played, Yeah, Clayton right, form a sentence like you?
Speaker 1: You can't even form like a sentence. You can't even problem.
Speaker 1: You have someone up there who's not passionate about what
Speaker 1: the funk they're talking about, so you can't then be like, well,
Speaker 1: then we're going to rely on their secondary improvisational skills
Speaker 1: to sound like a black person. Who's bothered by critical
Speaker 1: race theory, and that's why he just came out with
Speaker 1: like the yo u huh you know what, I'm yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm tired of this um funk. What the fun was it?
Speaker 1: We're not black, we're not white, We're Americans. Meanwhile, all
Speaker 1: the you know, Asian Americans and all the every that's yeah,
Speaker 1: that's it. Not in Georgia for this race specifically, what
Speaker 1: is black and what is white? And it's just et
Speaker 1: r it's not it. Well, they all needed qute cars,
Speaker 1: but they just said no because none of them can read.
Speaker 1: And that's the real issue that we have, especially, Like
Speaker 1: it's like fuck, like every time a black person compromises
Speaker 1: their blackness to get white approval, you're like, it's always
Speaker 1: a ship show, never never looks good, never does and
Speaker 1: never does and you could have you could have avoided
Speaker 1: it too. It's a very avoidable situation. Like, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep being black and not do this right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're like, do any to do? I't need to just
Speaker 1: say some ship that would completely betray all the struggle
Speaker 1: of everybody that came before me. Maybe I just I'll
Speaker 1: just I'll just leave that behind Okay, wait, my ego,
Speaker 1: we'll not hold on. But it comes to my egos. Man,
Speaker 1: fuck the ancestors. It might be the money more than
Speaker 1: the ego. Uh yeah right, and then even then I'm like,
Speaker 1: what are they paying you? Not much? That's the sad part.
Speaker 1: Not much. Speak speaking of governors, I just want to
Speaker 1: kind of bring some attention to Republican governors in Indiana
Speaker 1: and Utah because these just ridiculous, transphobic protecting women's the
Speaker 1: integrity of women's athletics bills are popping up all over
Speaker 1: solving an issue that is not real. But again, it's
Speaker 1: just just a justification for further discrimination against trans people
Speaker 1: and youth. Specifically, Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb he vetoed a
Speaker 1: bill last week that would that would have banned trans
Speaker 1: kids from playing on sports teams according to their own
Speaker 1: gender identity. But he kind of again this one, okay, like, yes,
Speaker 1: he vetoed the funked up bill, and you're like, oh good,
Speaker 1: he vetoed the bill, and he's like, but let me explain.
Speaker 1: The reason is because this bill is so fucked up
Speaker 1: and it's wording that it just opens up all these
Speaker 1: school districts to lawsuits because it's like Texas where they're
Speaker 1: just sort of deputizing concerned parents to be like, well,
Speaker 1: if they funk up, you can bring a lawsuit against
Speaker 1: the school district, and as governments like that could potentially
Speaker 1: just bankrupt the funk out of all these school districts
Speaker 1: and we'll basically have no public education at all. So
Speaker 1: I don't want to I don't want to have these
Speaker 1: school districts wasting resources fighting these lawsuits. Just were the
Speaker 1: bill differently, it's kind of like yeah. But he did, however,
Speaker 1: acknowledge that the bill wasn't really addressing a problem in
Speaker 1: the state because there aren't there weren't any trans kids
Speaker 1: competing in high school sports like in the state, so
Speaker 1: he was sort of just like, it doesn't. It's also
Speaker 1: there's this doesn't even like address anything that's happening, and
Speaker 1: it's could be a bankruptcy thing. So look, y'all, just
Speaker 1: override my vito, like I know you're gonna do because
Speaker 1: you control the legislature, and then come back. So this
Speaker 1: really isn't over and in fact, a lot of people
Speaker 1: are speculating that it will come back. They may override
Speaker 1: the veto in May. Meanwhile, in Utah. I just want
Speaker 1: to say, Governor Spencer Cox also vetoed a similar bill
Speaker 1: and was also concerned the same way. He's like, this
Speaker 1: could open up districts or certain athletic bodies to be
Speaker 1: completely just inundated with lawsuits and then therefore drain all
Speaker 1: the money out when like these our schools and like
Speaker 1: associations that are providing the infrastructure for kids to play sports.
Speaker 1: But he actually like articulated a human cost to these
Speaker 1: kinds of bills, And I then that's the credit I
Speaker 1: will give Governor Cox if Utah and all and I
Speaker 1: will and you know, take it with a grain of salt,
Speaker 1: because he does still say, like I believe that we
Speaker 1: have to protect women's sports already. That's an l But
Speaker 1: he goes on to say, quote, I must admit I'm
Speaker 1: not an expert. Um. I struggle to understand so much
Speaker 1: of it, and the science is conflicting. When in doubt, however,
Speaker 1: I always try to err on the side of kindness,
Speaker 1: mercy and compassion. I also try to get proximate and
Speaker 1: I am learning so much from our transgender community. They
Speaker 1: are great kids who face enormous struggles. Here are the
Speaker 1: numbers that have most impacted my decision. This is from
Speaker 1: his letter explaining the veto of the bill. Seventy five thousand,
Speaker 1: four one eighty six and fifty six seventy five thousand
Speaker 1: the number of high school kids participating in high school
Speaker 1: sports in Utah. For the number of transgender kids playing
Speaker 1: high school sports in Utah one the one transgender student
Speaker 1: playing girls sports six percent. That's the number of trans
Speaker 1: youth reporting on suicidality, fifty six percent of trans youth
Speaker 1: having attempted it. Now, he said, quote four kids, and
Speaker 1: only one of them is playing girls sports. That's what
Speaker 1: all of this is about. Four kids who aren't dominating
Speaker 1: or winning trophies or taking scholarships. Four kids who are
Speaker 1: just trying to find some friends and feel like they
Speaker 1: are part of something. Four kids trying to get through
Speaker 1: each day. Rarely has so much fear and anger been
Speaker 1: directed at so few. Now, you know, he's also looking
Speaker 1: at a state legislature that can over ride the veto,
Speaker 1: and probably you know he's potentially welcoming a primary from
Speaker 1: the right because of this. But you know, I I'll
Speaker 1: say I couldn't believe that we saw a Republican government
Speaker 1: even bothered to articulate or not just go down the
Speaker 1: full dehumanization route when it comes to these bills, because
Speaker 1: that's the trends been sing. Yeah, it's really sad when
Speaker 1: somebody not hating other people isn't applause worthy thing. Very
Speaker 1: is a very weird thing, right, And it's a very
Speaker 1: weird because I'll find myself doing that too with and
Speaker 1: not on this issue, but other issues too, where you
Speaker 1: especially from the Republican side unfortunately, but you know, white
Speaker 1: people to like anybody who is in a place of
Speaker 1: majority or they're not a part of a marginalized group,
Speaker 1: and when they give the human response, you're like, huh,
Speaker 1: that's a good thing. No, it's not a good thing.
Speaker 1: It's not a good thing. It's it's a human like,
Speaker 1: it's exactly what it should be, right, And so you know,
Speaker 1: it's a really sad thing when you when you talk
Speaker 1: about these and you know, all those numbers you gave out,
Speaker 1: we're talking about you know, the four kids essentially, right,
Speaker 1: so much anger directed at so few, and you know,
Speaker 1: it's a very sad thing that because you know it's
Speaker 1: already an isolating situation and now you and then when
Speaker 1: you talk about there's four you know, those four people
Speaker 1: know who they are, you know what I'm saying, right,
Speaker 1: and the fact that they have to now say man,
Speaker 1: So it feels good to know that one person out
Speaker 1: of this large group of people doesn't hate us. It's
Speaker 1: very sad. It's a very sad thing. Yeah, it sucks
Speaker 1: to be that empathy isis surprised and should be the
Speaker 1: basic basic thing you can do, especially for children. And yeah,
Speaker 1: over a school sports too, of all things to be like,
Speaker 1: why are you paying attention to school sports, you fool
Speaker 1: ask grown adult? Yeah, it is. It is such an
Speaker 1: unnecessary need to discuss something that is truly happening at
Speaker 1: the tiniest scale. And also more importantly, it's literally it's
Speaker 1: an insult, especially because there's always folks on girls sports.
Speaker 1: It's an insult to women to assume that they are
Speaker 1: genetically weaker than men, and that anyone who transitions from
Speaker 1: for the genders is like is is inherently gonna be
Speaker 1: much better because they're they're not genetic biological woman's like
Speaker 1: that's women are strong, powerful athletes that don't get the
Speaker 1: respect to deserve already, And anyone who joins the flanks,
Speaker 1: regardless of what their biological status in the beginning. That's
Speaker 1: not a that's not a challenge to women in sports
Speaker 1: and girls and sports. They that's that's still equal footing,
Speaker 1: and it's unfair to think otherwise. Yeah, and it's funny
Speaker 1: too because it's usually people who won have never played
Speaker 1: sports or two sucked at everything they ever fucking did
Speaker 1: growing up, who don't realize that that's a it's a
Speaker 1: that's a dumb argument. Like I play in the coed
Speaker 1: baseball league right now, we all sucky. We all suck,
Speaker 1: all of us, all of us. Everybody got a noodle
Speaker 1: arm from second girl. Boy, it doesn't matter. Everybody's striking now, okay,
Speaker 1: nobody throw for forty five miles. And I like, we
Speaker 1: all sucked, right, And then I grow up and I
Speaker 1: remember growing up. You know, I grew up in Chicago.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you, man, I tell you who kicked
Speaker 1: my ass the most. Candice Parker. She kicked our ass.
Speaker 1: Like the best basketball player I've ever played against in
Speaker 1: my fucking life, like on a on a court, Candice Parker.
Speaker 1: Like and you actually hooped with Candice Parker? Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: like picked up basketball, like destroy, destroy, destroy, man. And
Speaker 1: it's just like and so like when people who actually
Speaker 1: like love sports and don't sports and things like that,
Speaker 1: I know that that's such a whack argument of well,
Speaker 1: men are just genetically better than women, right, because it's
Speaker 1: not true. It's not true at all. Oh that's all
Speaker 1: it is. That's all that that's all that is. There's
Speaker 1: no skill, none of that's fully dismissive of like literally
Speaker 1: all of women in supports like that is hands down,
Speaker 1: like some of the greatest athletes of all time. You
Speaker 1: can tell me Sean Williams can't just beat any man.
Speaker 1: She can't. Yeah, you can't. Yeah, when we were playing,
Speaker 1: when I played against Canadas Parker, what are a couple
Speaker 1: of dudes who were stronger than her? Yeah? Probably? You
Speaker 1: know what she did, she took the gas out to
Speaker 1: the perimeter in school day. She was like, all right,
Speaker 1: you strong to me? Fine. People in the NBA eight
Speaker 1: Ellen Iverson wasn't backing down shack right, you know, like
Speaker 1: it's like they just don't you don't get that, Like
Speaker 1: you don't because they don't know what the funk they're
Speaker 1: talking about. It's just based and bigotry racism. Like that's
Speaker 1: also like like like they like they even like if
Speaker 1: women is a great athlete, she's meedily dismissed as being
Speaker 1: more manly immediately, Like, it's such to insult, to insult
Speaker 1: women as as athletes in every possible way that they're
Speaker 1: like and it's unnecessary trans women are like, they're not
Speaker 1: gonna be in hardently better at sports than everybody else.
Speaker 1: They will be as good as any other athlete in
Speaker 1: the scale field. And and I think it speaks to
Speaker 1: the fragility of the conservatives in this country at the moment,
Speaker 1: because they're grasping at anything to feel that their worldview
Speaker 1: is somehow dominant or more pervasive than people who are
Speaker 1: interested in progress. So this is how you claw back
Speaker 1: is to say, well, you know what, in these states
Speaker 1: where we have this state control, we can now let's
Speaker 1: push the weakest groups around, because then we'll feel better
Speaker 1: as long as we can decide because some of these
Speaker 1: other groups that you know, that ships that sail and
Speaker 1: we there's nothing we can do about it. The change
Speaker 1: has come. But if we can call it back some
Speaker 1: basic rights for others, maybe that will help us feel better.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break and we'll come
Speaker 1: right back. Because Will Smith and Chris Rock obviously, and
Speaker 1: we're back. So Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, we're the Oscars. I
Speaker 1: wasn't paying attention. I kind of had it on, and
Speaker 1: then my I paused it and my Apple TV did
Speaker 1: that thing where just shuts off because they're like, you're
Speaker 1: not fucking watching this ship power safe mode? Uh. And
Speaker 1: then I got a text from my mother in the
Speaker 1: middle out of nowhere, being like, what did Chris Rocks say?
Speaker 1: And I said what he said? What did Chris Rock say?
Speaker 1: I'm like, is this some? Is this like something like
Speaker 1: what did the Fox say? Type? I was so confused,
Speaker 1: I said, explain, what do you what are you asking?
Speaker 1: She's like, Will Smith just hit Chris Rock, but you
Speaker 1: can't hear anything that happened on the Oscars And I said,
Speaker 1: what the fuck? So immediately all these other text message
Speaker 1: pop up? Did you see that ship? What about this?
Speaker 1: What about that? Here's this video? And what we saw
Speaker 1: was again if you I'm sure at this point everybody knows,
Speaker 1: but Will Smith went on stage after Chris Rock made
Speaker 1: a joke about Jada pink It's hair, and you know,
Speaker 1: hit him with five across the eye real quick, just
Speaker 1: to tighten them up. You know, the short explanation is
Speaker 1: that obviously people were looking they said, why would Will
Speaker 1: Smith do this? Many people explain that Jada, you know,
Speaker 1: in the past, has shared that she has alopecia, and
Speaker 1: that that her hair comes and makes her hair fall
Speaker 1: out easier, and and and especially women of color tend
Speaker 1: to be affected by alopecia in much larger numbers than
Speaker 1: most groups. And you know, so her hair she's keep
Speaker 1: That's why she's keeping her hair short. Chris Rock made
Speaker 1: a fucking dumb ass joke, being like, I can't wait
Speaker 1: to see you in g I Jane too. What the
Speaker 1: funk year is this? While he was giving the Best
Speaker 1: Documentary Award shoutout to quest Love for winning that one
Speaker 1: for Summer Soul. And you know, we saw this exchange
Speaker 1: where he said he made the joke. Will kind of
Speaker 1: is laughing. Jada's clearly not pleased with it. Wilson goes
Speaker 1: on stage, Maxim then goes back and saying keep my
Speaker 1: keep my wife's name UTR fucking mouth. And then the
Speaker 1: show went on and he won an Academy Award and
Speaker 1: then apologize, I don't know where to pick up. I
Speaker 1: just want to open the floor, because I think for
Speaker 1: many people, we saw this and we're like, what the
Speaker 1: fuck just happened? Uh? Meanwhile, you saw many people clutching
Speaker 1: their pearls like they couldn't believe that what they had
Speaker 1: seen and calling for Will Smith's Academy award to be
Speaker 1: taken away. While many people have pointed out there like
Speaker 1: what about Roman Plansky, what about Wood? You want to
Speaker 1: handle those first and then you wanna talk about Will
Speaker 1: Smith until then when you shut the funk up? But yes, thoughts,
Speaker 1: what what was everybody feeling? The bad jokes? The way
Speaker 1: to handle it? Um? Was that the only way to
Speaker 1: handle it? Because there are some people on Twitter who like, yep,
Speaker 1: I would have done. You know, you had like Big
Speaker 1: Husband Energy Gang on Twitter being like, yeah, that's exactly
Speaker 1: what you gotta fucking do. Then you had people being like,
Speaker 1: I like comedians being slapped for bad jokes. There's ever
Speaker 1: you got? You got it all from this. I think
Speaker 1: it's complex. I think that's the way it is gonna
Speaker 1: It's always gonna be complex. Were not neither of us
Speaker 1: are the people are in the situation. And I think
Speaker 1: right now is like, do I think you should just
Speaker 1: slap somebody for a bad joke, No do I think,
Speaker 1: But I definitely think he was a lot of the
Speaker 1: reaction because that's the end of the day. If I'm
Speaker 1: if I'm saying something about someone specifically when they're right
Speaker 1: in front of me, I opened them. I opened I
Speaker 1: opened it. This like as as I've been standing up
Speaker 1: for fifteen years, every time I've I've made a comment
Speaker 1: about somebody on stage that I know that I'm allowing
Speaker 1: them the opportunity to say something back to me. And
Speaker 1: that's that's just kind of how that that's it's especially
Speaker 1: with gross jokes, you kind of have to have an
Speaker 1: agreement with people like whenever, like you like and yeah,
Speaker 1: sometimes people like, yeah, this is where I'm at, this
Speaker 1: is the situation that I'm in, and it's fine to
Speaker 1: tell that kind of a joke, but also we don't
Speaker 1: know what her day was, like, we don't know what
Speaker 1: happened to her before that. Like that's so this whole
Speaker 1: situation is always gonna be like should he react it
Speaker 1: that way? They would say no, but should like there'll
Speaker 1: be legal repercussions, should heat get academy revoked of him?
Speaker 1: And it's like, also, no, that's that's that's you're finding
Speaker 1: your way to a lot of people, like finding the
Speaker 1: way to apply the racism to this situation. And it's
Speaker 1: kind of that's a frustrating part of it. And I
Speaker 1: think for me, it's like this is actually between Chris
Speaker 1: Rock and Will Smith. Now it's like whatever, whatever repercussions
Speaker 1: that need to happen the situation, that's that's Chris Rock's business, right,
Speaker 1: And he's already said I'm not pressing charges. That's not
Speaker 1: we're not doing that. Honestly. Of course he's not pressing.
Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing, like, you know, I'll say
Speaker 1: this and then I'll go back to just the moment.
Speaker 1: Of course, Chris Rock ain't pressing charges. You know, Chris
Speaker 1: Rock is a black man. Who look, I mean we
Speaker 1: I don't know if we've all been in fights where
Speaker 1: or where we all grew up. I grew up in
Speaker 1: the hood. Like Chris rocking pressing charges. That was that's
Speaker 1: a very white response, sorry, like it's a very white
Speaker 1: suburban response. He should press started. Yeah, Oh that's right,
Speaker 1: because the police do ship for you. Yeah, we're not
Speaker 1: looking at the police completely. Fight people fight, all right,
Speaker 1: you know. Ye, Now to the moment I was at
Speaker 1: an Oscar party. Shout out to Demmi, did wee Bay?
Speaker 1: I was at his party and I was very high,
Speaker 1: and when it happened, I thought that it was fake
Speaker 1: because I was watching I watched you live, so you know,
Speaker 1: like I thought it was I thought it was stage
Speaker 1: because the way the camera went like, and we all did.
Speaker 1: Everybody at that party thought it was staged. We thought
Speaker 1: it was just a moment, you know, like a fun
Speaker 1: moment because well because Regina Hall had that moment with
Speaker 1: all the actors who came up on stage earlier and
Speaker 1: Will Smith didn't come up. I don't know if you
Speaker 1: guys know about that, but it was a moment that
Speaker 1: they made a joke about it. So I thought, like, oh,
Speaker 1: Will actually coming on stage now, like because he got
Speaker 1: called up on stage earlier in the show. So we
Speaker 1: all thought it was fake. And then the sound cut
Speaker 1: off and and like and then you could read Will's
Speaker 1: lips to eat my wife's name out of your fucking mouth,
Speaker 1: and everybody and we all and like and we all
Speaker 1: just started like what the fuck was that it? And
Speaker 1: it blew my high, Like I became sober after that, right,
Speaker 1: you know. And and then once and then that's all
Speaker 1: we could talk about. And it was a mood changer.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say it wasn't a mood changer. It
Speaker 1: was a fucking mood live. Yeah, it was a mood change.
Speaker 1: It was a mood changer. At the party, I was there,
Speaker 1: you could tell it was a mood changer. And then
Speaker 1: when we heard the uncensored version, and you can hear that,
Speaker 1: you can hear his voice. Keep my wife's name out
Speaker 1: of your fucking me. I don't know. If I don't
Speaker 1: know if you're listening to audience knows how big Adobe
Speaker 1: Theater is. But I guarantee you the last person in
Speaker 1: the last heard that nigger. He said that right like that.
Speaker 1: It was Yeah, it was dead quiet, you can hear
Speaker 1: it in his voice. And then hearing Chris Rock, it
Speaker 1: was just it's a crazy fucking moment. And here's what
Speaker 1: I'll say to all of it wasn't a tasteless joke. Sure, yes,
Speaker 1: especially if Chris Rock knew. If he does doesn't know.
Speaker 1: I also doubt that Chris Rock wrote that joke, So
Speaker 1: somebody who wrote the joke probably knew, So I believe
Speaker 1: he wrote it, and maybe he did. Maybe he wrote
Speaker 1: Jane joke that woman got short hair? What is this?
Speaker 1: G I Jane? That was that was in the moment joke.
Speaker 1: I think the last joke didn't do too well. That
Speaker 1: he was like, you know what, let me now, don't
Speaker 1: throw things in the wall right now, this is the
Speaker 1: wrong place. Yeah, because that's the thing too. It was
Speaker 1: backed up with another bad joke, the Penelope CRUs heavy
Speaker 1: are bad damn joke. Here's my thing, man. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm seeing a lot of takes. I've seen a lot
Speaker 1: of white women's centering themselves with this. I'm seeing a
Speaker 1: lot of you know, the obviously, I'm seeing a lot
Speaker 1: of white men the violence of these negroes, like, I'm
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of that too. Fuck them. Here's what.
Speaker 1: Here's what the take that I don't understand. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of people saying like, yo, you wouldn't defend your
Speaker 1: wife either, Yo, we gotta protect black women all these
Speaker 1: things ings, and and I think it's very disingenuous to
Speaker 1: say that that's not how we feel. Of course, we
Speaker 1: feel like you should defend your wife or your partner.
Speaker 1: Of course we feel like we gotta protect black women
Speaker 1: and things like that. I tell you the thing I'm
Speaker 1: most upset about is that. And there's no secret I
Speaker 1: love Will Smith. I've been following this dude's career for
Speaker 1: thirty years. I love the man. I've been wanting him
Speaker 1: to win Oscar for twenty years. That he is what
Speaker 1: the fourth black man to win an Oscar for Best
Speaker 1: Actor or somewhere around those low numbers, thirty year career,
Speaker 1: third nomination playing somebody who is portraying a father of
Speaker 1: two legendary black queens in sports and and just the world. Like,
Speaker 1: I'm more upset that we are talking about this and
Speaker 1: not the fact that Will Smith just won his first Oscar.
Speaker 1: And I'm not assigning fault to that reason or you know,
Speaker 1: who can put the faught on him. You can put
Speaker 1: the fault on whoever. It's just a very unfortunate situation
Speaker 1: that like once again, as black people, our moments get
Speaker 1: taken from us, whether it's by our own doing or
Speaker 1: like by you know, doing stuff outside of it. But
Speaker 1: it's just always feels like we can never just have
Speaker 1: our moments, and that is what's sad to me. I'm
Speaker 1: not upset about it, It's just a sad thing when
Speaker 1: you put all of it together, on top of that.
Speaker 1: I know I'm talking a lot, but the last thing
Speaker 1: I'll say is people keep forgetting this dude. It's from
Speaker 1: West Philadelphia. Man. I know, like white people feel comfortable
Speaker 1: with him as a black man in America, but you know,
Speaker 1: he showed them real quick, like all I grew up
Speaker 1: in hood. Don't forget. Don't forget. Now I'm looking at that,
Speaker 1: I'm like, did he just did he just wanted to
Speaker 1: g up on Chris Rock because he you know, it
Speaker 1: was like, wait, let me remember my operating system. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're taking shots to my wife in public? You think
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that? Or a lot of people
Speaker 1: are like, is he distressed too? I think he was
Speaker 1: pissed off. I think it was whatever happened that day.
Speaker 1: It was such a problem I can't image, Like when
Speaker 1: you're talking about the oscars, like especially working in this
Speaker 1: industry and understanding the amount of stress anything makes you feel,
Speaker 1: and how intense a day like that can be. That
Speaker 1: can like, and that's that's the last thing you wanted
Speaker 1: to Somebody make fun of Jada, And that's that's the
Speaker 1: last thing. And that's and in that moment, he saw
Speaker 1: his wife upset and that's a that's a tough choice
Speaker 1: to be. That's a tough position to put somebody in,
Speaker 1: especially based on the relationship at how strangeous we've seen
Speaker 1: it because because the people so we can only imagine
Speaker 1: like whatever, like testing that relationship, and especially in this realm.
Speaker 1: That's that's I don't know, like that's it's tough to say.
Speaker 1: It's a tough call to make because it is that
Speaker 1: kind of anger, is a very specific kind of anger,
Speaker 1: and just only like because he might want to do
Speaker 1: more than that, he might have like, but he like,
Speaker 1: the least I can do is slap this band. And
Speaker 1: it wasn't that strong the slab like, it's not Chris
Speaker 1: Rock's like Chris Roxon was. Yeah, he was too, he
Speaker 1: had much more wait does he have on Chris Rock
Speaker 1: and muscle like like Chris Rock was able to bounce
Speaker 1: back from that slap. It wasn't It was a warning slap,
Speaker 1: not a yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna break your face slap.
Speaker 1: And you're right too, man, You're right when you say, um,
Speaker 1: you know the fact that it was warning's lap. But
Speaker 1: you can hear in the tone in his voice it
Speaker 1: sounded like I'm fed up. Yeah, it was a fed
Speaker 1: up moment. It sounded like he was fed I don't
Speaker 1: know if he's fed up about you know, being the
Speaker 1: butt of a lot of jokes. I mean they are
Speaker 1: very open, they're very open family, and they tell us
Speaker 1: everything that pops in their fucking minds, right, But maybe
Speaker 1: that's by design. Maybe it's like where you know, you're
Speaker 1: talking about us all the time already, like let's try
Speaker 1: to take control all of this narrative and just you know,
Speaker 1: it's what it can feel like. And you know, in
Speaker 1: that moment, that was the way he could take control
Speaker 1: of the narrative. I don't know, you know, I think
Speaker 1: the fun thing is that's going to be used against
Speaker 1: Will Smith. I think a lot, you know what I mean, Like,
Speaker 1: I can't imagine. I don't know how long it's gonna
Speaker 1: take before someone like, you know, at another award shows
Speaker 1: like and I don't want to Will coming up on stage,
Speaker 1: but anything, you who also, you know what he can
Speaker 1: take that that's the thing he wants to make it about.
Speaker 1: He was like, you made from my wife, I'll make
Speaker 1: that about me, which is essentially the end of the day.
Speaker 1: You know, one's got to give Jade to the flag.
Speaker 1: They're gonna respect her from that point on. So he's
Speaker 1: getting what he truly alped me was because he knows
Speaker 1: he can handle pressure of publicity like that. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'm fine with you guys focusing on me, but you
Speaker 1: will always respect Jada from this point off, and they
Speaker 1: probably will. And he's like, I don't care if you
Speaker 1: make a mean more crying husband memes or whatever, like
Speaker 1: I'm built for it. Yeah, And it's just it's and
Speaker 1: like you know, when you look at it, you're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you don't jokes about people's appearances, especially if that they're
Speaker 1: having something like some condition like alopecia, Like that's just
Speaker 1: the fucking dumb joke because it's it's not it's not
Speaker 1: comedy in the in the like even the most generous sense,
Speaker 1: and on some level means I was thinking, I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: if if Will played it over, he could have gone
Speaker 1: on stage and just shamed Chris Rock for making a
Speaker 1: joke like that, and it would have been beyond You'd
Speaker 1: have been like, holy sh it. I mean, because you know,
Speaker 1: I think a lot of times to people talk about
Speaker 1: are we having a reckoning with what we think is funny.
Speaker 1: Still we still talk about people's appearances, and a lot
Speaker 1: of people have said, like when you have disabilities, certain
Speaker 1: things are just fair game for jokes because it's such
Speaker 1: a small group that it feels like a certain way.
Speaker 1: But what you know, like there because then because then
Speaker 1: if he did that, then people like long and was
Speaker 1: like like, oh you can't you're trying to cancel Chris
Speaker 1: Rock now and like now, but right now, I guess what,
Speaker 1: Chris Rock is still gonna not lose his career. Like
Speaker 1: it's like you told like this is probably the best
Speaker 1: possible outcome for this kind of a situation because you're
Speaker 1: not gonna cancel Chris Rock for a dumb joke. Now
Speaker 1: you're not gonna have to deal with like the guilt
Speaker 1: like him going up there to guilt him. Ill, Like
Speaker 1: what we learned is talk shit, get hit Sometimes that
Speaker 1: might be the lesson that we need to learn. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I mean you know, listen, somebody run on Twitter. You
Speaker 1: can tell the type of people people grew up with
Speaker 1: by their responses to this, because you know, look, my
Speaker 1: whole thing was again you know the moment it stepped
Speaker 1: on a little bit and you did it in front
Speaker 1: all those people. But I'm not surprised that the you know,
Speaker 1: you talked to you you hit the nigger, like and
Speaker 1: you hit somebody bro like that is a very common response.
Speaker 1: Or I grew up and it's not and it's not
Speaker 1: a healthy one at all. It's not a healthy one.
Speaker 1: It's not a healthy one, but it's not a surprising one.
Speaker 1: It's a very surprising one. It's not the healthiest one.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it's not gonna
Speaker 1: it's not gonna like Chris Rock gets to revive his
Speaker 1: career from this because he's not been guilted by his jokes.
Speaker 1: It's he's just like, this is a this is this
Speaker 1: thing that we reckoned together, and it's it's one of
Speaker 1: the situations where I think everyone involved is knows how
Speaker 1: to handle the aftermass and and a lot of the
Speaker 1: white people getting involved need to calm down a little bit, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that's one of the situations, like let the
Speaker 1: community to take care of itself. We don't need your input, right,
Speaker 1: some of these people like, yeah, this is unfortunately this
Speaker 1: got this business was sorted out in front of y'all,
Speaker 1: so I know it feels like it's inviting commentary. But
Speaker 1: this is very much one of those things to you,
Speaker 1: like it's one of those things where it's like you
Speaker 1: should have waited they have the party to slap him.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, I feel like that was my that was
Speaker 1: my first like problematic toxic man things like no man
Speaker 1: tighten his ass up at the afterparty, like on stage,
Speaker 1: like that's that's that's too much, that's too many eyes
Speaker 1: if you're really And here's the funny thing too, and
Speaker 1: a lot of people aren't realizing this, you know, after
Speaker 1: the slap, the audience laughed, so yeah, well they didn't
Speaker 1: know what because because going on right, they thought it
Speaker 1: was a bit. So even if you just keep it
Speaker 1: at that slap, once people realize it's really you know,
Speaker 1: I think what really set people off because everybody eventually
Speaker 1: heard the unsensored part was hearing his voice. Like hearing
Speaker 1: his voice and hearing how he sounded after that is
Speaker 1: what set people off. And you know why it is
Speaker 1: because especially when you get like Jedd Apatow writer, he
Speaker 1: could have killed him. Now, he couldn't have killed him
Speaker 1: from a slap. You know what you got scared of.
Speaker 1: You got scared of hearing the black man's voice, and
Speaker 1: you got scared of hearing the anger in his voice,
Speaker 1: because that's what you associate black man for his anger
Speaker 1: and violence. And once you put those two things together
Speaker 1: and you hear the tone and you feel that too.
Speaker 1: We felt that ship. Keep my wife's name out of
Speaker 1: your fucking mouth. I felt that ship when he said that, right,
Speaker 1: And when Jed Apatow felt that, it made him scared
Speaker 1: of a black man. Right. It's not the slap. Nobody
Speaker 1: gives a shit about a slap. It's a fucking slap,
Speaker 1: you know. But but coupling those two things together, that's
Speaker 1: what people get scared of. It's like, oh, we haven't heard,
Speaker 1: we haven't heard this side of Will Smith. Will Smith
Speaker 1: slap people before, he slapped on the red carpet. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you'll remember that, like a few years ago,
Speaker 1: somebody like tried to kiss him and he like gave
Speaker 1: him a backhand slap. He slapped people before, but then
Speaker 1: he didn't, you know, laughed it off and after Now
Speaker 1: it's just a funny, mean But hearing him say keep
Speaker 1: my wife's name out of your mouth, and hearing that
Speaker 1: octave change, and hearing him stop code switching, which he
Speaker 1: does often like that scared people. Yeah, And on top
Speaker 1: of it, there's you know, like you're saying it really
Speaker 1: took because I started watching afterwards and it just felt
Speaker 1: like a fucking tornado swept there like it was. It
Speaker 1: was just the energy was so weird. And on top
Speaker 1: of that completely takes all the attention off of like
Speaker 1: the other sort of first that of are just sort
Speaker 1: of historical moments. You know, you had Ariana Debos when
Speaker 1: is you know, the first Afro Latina to win an
Speaker 1: Oscar and she's pointing out, She's like, you know who
Speaker 1: the last Latina to win was Rita Moreno over there,
Speaker 1: but the same fucking role. But what are we doing?
Speaker 1: And you you have these moments where there are these
Speaker 1: like really like these these poignant moments, and people are
Speaker 1: making these observations and and celebrating these historic winds, and
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, everyone's just completely sort
Speaker 1: of certain, you know, in a state of shock and
Speaker 1: saying like, Okay, he smacked him, then he got back
Speaker 1: to his seat. We're letting him cook. Apparently, uh, superproducer
Speaker 1: Justin was telling me that as this was happening, the
Speaker 1: academy was quote strongly considering removing him after what had happened,
Speaker 1: but quote, apparently they couldn't mobilize to make a decision
Speaker 1: before he won Best had a whole hour and a
Speaker 1: half well that you could tell that you could tell
Speaker 1: also from a broadcast standpoint that they switched it up.
Speaker 1: The Best Actor was probably gonna go last, you know,
Speaker 1: and the Pope fiction people were there too nominate the
Speaker 1: Best Picture. But they was like, we gotta get this ship,
Speaker 1: you know, we gotta get because we know Will don't talk.
Speaker 1: We know what we know he's gonna talk. We got it.
Speaker 1: We can't the show on Will Smith giving a speech
Speaker 1: if he wins, like which was very likely because you know,
Speaker 1: he was the front runner. So they switched up the
Speaker 1: broadcast as well and made that, you know, the first
Speaker 1: out of the Big three as to the post to
Speaker 1: the last out of the Big three. Yeah, it's it's
Speaker 1: it's wild. It was. It was a wild broadcast. I mean, look,
Speaker 1: Twitter was very fun last night. It was very funny,
Speaker 1: you know, But then also it was also the worst
Speaker 1: parts of Twitter too. Everybody with their takes and centering
Speaker 1: themselves Twitter. That's that's that's the wild part is Twitter.
Speaker 1: Like in the first first hour, you're like, but then
Speaker 1: you're like, hold on. This is the thing that Twitter
Speaker 1: does is they don't let the dust settle, so in
Speaker 1: the chaos of it, you can flas with the most
Speaker 1: insensitive ship and then you have to kind of give
Speaker 1: yourself some distance and really ruminate on what happened. And
Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, can I also say this too? Because
Speaker 1: you bought this point up Miles, and I want to
Speaker 1: be I wanna, I wanna say this part. I want
Speaker 1: to say congratulations, you know, from somebody who grew up
Speaker 1: and a household with deaf people. Uh, congratulations Dakoda winning.
Speaker 1: Congratulations to you know, the actor winning for Best Supporting Actor.
Speaker 1: It was beautiful moment. Congratulations to the memorium was beautiful. Uh,
Speaker 1: congratulations to you know, Arianna Dubout. Congratulations to quest Love,
Speaker 1: queen of basketball so many and also congratulations to Will
Speaker 1: Smith from winning his Like I wanted, like, you know,
Speaker 1: we're we're like you said, we're talking about this lap
Speaker 1: in all these moments that were so great last night
Speaker 1: that really celebrate it. A lot of brown people and
Speaker 1: a lot of marginalized people, and a lot of of
Speaker 1: really fantastic artists, a lot of moments that were celebrated
Speaker 1: are now overshadowed U as somebody a part of the
Speaker 1: black community, as somebody who has family and the deaf community.
Speaker 1: Those were very special for me to see. So I
Speaker 1: want to publicly be able to say that that those
Speaker 1: were beautiful as moments. And I agree with that, and
Speaker 1: I think it's, uh, it's gonna suck because that's the
Speaker 1: way that these moments do get to minish. But I don't. Uh.
Speaker 1: One of the greatest shames of these kind of situations
Speaker 1: is when any time black people do any sort of reaction,
Speaker 1: if they's treated like the society is going down the
Speaker 1: fucking well, and people will feel that this is gonna
Speaker 1: be the standard norm of how people react, and it's like,
Speaker 1: y'all need to calm down. That's how the world has
Speaker 1: not changed. Every comedian I could get slapped to secondly
Speaker 1: get on stage from this point on and you don't
Speaker 1: have to voice that opinion. And and I think it's
Speaker 1: those those I feel like the issue is that the
