Speaker 1: getting everybody, just please leading it's okay to say though, right,
Speaker 1: Yes it is. It's called boundaries. There's a great book
Speaker 1: called set Boundaries, fine piece by Nidra to Warp Glover
Speaker 1: that talks about that. Yes, I am simply this kind
Speaker 1: of everybody else and people. I wish y'all would call
Speaker 1: him the breakfast club with your like get all he
Speaker 1: or into it. I do whatever I need to do.
Speaker 1: I live in Detroit, I hustle, I survived. Stop big,
Speaker 1: you mean get together the police. That's that's all I
Speaker 1: want to say. And I have rust the power to
Speaker 1: Dinod to let's you my father. I let y'all breast club.
Speaker 1: Let's see you every morning. I have a good get
Speaker 1: it off your chests. It's a breakfast club. Good morning,
Speaker 1: the breakfast club. First of all, let me just say
Speaker 1: that I'm always shocked at people's willingness to on folks
Speaker 1: who are advocating for themselves and like to call it
Speaker 1: something else, you know, like me leaving the reel and
Speaker 1: me verbalizing the reasons why I left the reel, which
Speaker 1: I verbalize as because one, it wasn't feeding my soul,
Speaker 1: because it was being misrep presented. It was a white
Speaker 1: leadership that was outwardly presenting as a show of diverse voices.
Speaker 1: But the leadership and the decision making about what content
Speaker 1: was being produced, etcetera, etcetera, was not being done by
Speaker 1: people who were even involved in It's not to say
Speaker 1: that there aren't like white people that are involved in
Speaker 1: communities outside of whiteness, but these people weren't. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying so that along with a myriad of
Speaker 1: other things in terms of like a toxic work environment
Speaker 1: and just business practices and professional practices that didn't even
Speaker 1: just affected affect me. They affected my makeup team, They
Speaker 1: affected my glam team, you know, like they affected my assistant,
Speaker 1: like they affected the other hosts. Like it was not
Speaker 1: just a singular issue. But that is what I said
Speaker 1: was the reason why I left. And then when this happened,
Speaker 1: and I was like, you know, I think it's interesting
Speaker 1: that I was left out. People's argument is, well, I
Speaker 1: don't know why you thought they would include you. You
Speaker 1: was talking about the show, and it's like me holding
Speaker 1: an employer accountable or behaviors and for practices that are
Speaker 1: deleterious to the positive work environment of people. There is
Speaker 1: not thinking on the show. You know, I've never talked
Speaker 1: about my co hosts. I never made it about the
Speaker 1: actual talent on the show. I made it about the leadership.
Speaker 1: And I feel like that's what we need to be doing.
Speaker 1: When we look at Chris Smalls and him creating this union,
Speaker 1: you know, in the midst of Amazon. It's not him
Speaker 1: saying don't order from Amazon, but he's saying, like, yo,
Speaker 1: there needs to be better business practices and we need
Speaker 1: to be able to challenge and have that. I think
Speaker 1: some people think because it's TV or whatever, it's like,
Speaker 1: how dare you want better for anything? Like you get
Speaker 1: to be on TV, you get to be glamorous, you
Speaker 1: get to get money. By the way, I wasn't really
Speaker 1: getting that money on there. But it's really about just
Speaker 1: saying like, why should anybody have to settle for being
Speaker 1: treated below their worth in any environment? And if that's
Speaker 1: how change can happen to if somebody speaks out about
Speaker 1: it and talks about leadership, which is how they end
Speaker 1: up up with a Blackie Pea because I came out
Speaker 1: and was vocal, which inspired some of the people who
Speaker 1: were still remaining on the cast to challenge and say
Speaker 1: that needs to be in place in order for us
Speaker 1: to continue to be here. So I think some people
Speaker 1: just don't walk with me, and so they're just going
Speaker 1: to try and come with any reason to be like, well,
Speaker 1: I don't know why she, but truthfully I am in
Speaker 1: this particular instance, I'm gonna stand on the fact that
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, if you're gonna do
Speaker 1: a retrospective of the show over the years that's been
Speaker 1: on and the hosts that have been on it, it
Speaker 1: don't matter what I say. I mean it kind of
Speaker 1: proved you right. You know what I mean. If you're
Speaker 1: saying that this show wasn't good for my spirit because
Speaker 1: of X, Y and Z, and then they purposely and
Speaker 1: intentionally leave you out, it's like, which I have confirmed
Speaker 1: was the case. Du Like, it wasn't like, oh, we
Speaker 1: forgot her. It's like then people are like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: she was only there for five minutes. I no, I
Speaker 1: was there for six months. Three of those months were
Speaker 1: in a pandemic, and I signed a contract. I lived
Speaker 1: out my contract. You wasn't with he shooting in the
Speaker 1: gym at four thirty am going in there to do that?
Speaker 1: You know? Like it really is incredibly taxing on all
Speaker 1: parts of your life, your personal, physical, and mental, etc.
Speaker 1: I'm not complaining about that part, but I'm saying, like,
Speaker 1: I committed myself to this, and I gave myself to that,
Speaker 1: and I know from the individuals who have taken time
Speaker 1: to tell me, and I think all of you, I
Speaker 1: know that I contributed immensely to that space, right right,
Speaker 1: So like that's what really means the most to me
Speaker 1: is like I've had so many positive dms and on Twitter,
Speaker 1: et cetera and saying like, yo, that was screwed up.
Speaker 1: Shout out to you, like you made the show, elevate you.
Speaker 1: You were light in the in the space of this project,
Speaker 1: and I just I just hate that. Folks really don't
Speaker 1: understand the difference between being on something and calling for change.
Speaker 1: All Right, we got more with the many sales. When
Speaker 1: we come back. It's the world most thing. Just want
Speaker 1: to show to Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club, to Breakfast Club,
Speaker 1: Charlemagne and God Angelie. Ye, we got our good ship
Speaker 1: to a man the seals here, now you a man.
Speaker 1: That's an interview where you said that you actually spoke
Speaker 1: to a psychic and that helped guide you as far
Speaker 1: as your education. Oh yeah, my professor, yeah, professor. Right,
Speaker 1: So do you still see psychics? You know what. I
Speaker 1: haven't since like the first year of the pandemic. But
Speaker 1: I did see a psychic and she was the one
Speaker 1: who told me because I told her I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't really think I want to have kids, and
Speaker 1: she was like, yeah, in your charge, there's no kids.
Speaker 1: She had also said that she was like, oh, like
Speaker 1: your relationship is strong, like it's this is not like
Speaker 1: a flash in the pan. She's right. I mean who
Speaker 1: I'm with, it's who I'm going to be with until
Speaker 1: one of us die. And I feel like I typically
Speaker 1: see psychics that I'm more astrologically inclined than just like,
Speaker 1: I feel like this is going to happen, and then
Speaker 1: that's that. I like mediums. I like the spirit guides
Speaker 1: that can talk to you, the ancestors and spirits around you.
Speaker 1: I've never done that. The two I've spoken to have
Speaker 1: been beyond accurate. And you didn't answer about the safety.
Speaker 1: Are you going to have security with you? I mean
Speaker 1: I always have security just because I'm a woman in
Speaker 1: this world. So it's not like, um, I look at
Speaker 1: it like I need to have a security with an
Speaker 1: AAR fifteen. But I definitely have security just because we've
Speaker 1: always lived in a world that did not protect women.
Speaker 1: I was in Sacramento one time and a dude just
Speaker 1: walked on my stage and it was a little ass
Speaker 1: stage like it wasn't like somebody hello, literally like and
Speaker 1: my homeboy was there for the sole purpose. I know
Speaker 1: he listening right now, I'm talking about you. He was
Speaker 1: there for the sole purpose of the fact that he
Speaker 1: was about to join us on tour as security. So
Speaker 1: he's there, he's sitting on the side of the stage,
Speaker 1: he's eating French fries, and a whole ass man walks
Speaker 1: down the aisle, up the stairs and onto my stage.
Speaker 1: It was one of these little platform stages, and I'm
Speaker 1: just like, what's happening right now? The dude is like, Yo,
Speaker 1: I love you so much. I really just want to
Speaker 1: be with you. Da da dada. I look over and
Speaker 1: is eating French fries. Was he real security or just
Speaker 1: he was security? But at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: they lived in that moment like most people doing it,
Speaker 1: you know, on stage realized that before him. Yeah, when
Speaker 1: I looked over and he was like, like, I felt
Speaker 1: like I could see the salt crystals like dissolving on
Speaker 1: his tongue as this man stood in front of me.
Speaker 1: And this man could have done anything to me, Like
Speaker 1: he was close enough to where he could have done anything.
Speaker 1: And the security at the venue also didn't move, So
Speaker 1: I finally had to be like, ah, like, what's help
Speaker 1: come on? So then people came and took him down,
Speaker 1: but Homeboys still sat there and after the show, he
Speaker 1: was like, I mean, well, what did you want me
Speaker 1: to do? I didn't Actually I didn't. I didn't identify
Speaker 1: any danger, and I was like, yeah, no he got
Speaker 1: fired before his first correct. Have you ever beef to
Speaker 1: a comic overheadliner status? You know? That situation is confusing
Speaker 1: to me because it feels like they were both duped.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I like the promoter. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: feels like a promoter duped to them. So it feels
Speaker 1: like it feels very white colonizer behavior where you create
Speaker 1: the conflict and then you remove yourself from it and
Speaker 1: you're like, okay, now fight me grows. I've never beefed
Speaker 1: over anything with a comic. Not enough for me to
Speaker 1: remember right now. You know the one I love about
Speaker 1: the comedy space. You know, people would be like, oh, like,
Speaker 1: you're in comedy. That's so much, that's so difficult, so difficult.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I come from hip hop, Like it was
Speaker 1: a much harder space. Comedy is a lot more meritocracy,
Speaker 1: and you know, if you're funny, you funny. I had
Speaker 1: a moment the other day where I did a show.
Speaker 1: It was a black show and I bombed recently. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was my version of bombing. It was earlier that
Speaker 1: day I had gotten some bad news. I was trying
Speaker 1: to do Smart Funny and Black as a Juneteenth special,
Speaker 1: and Smart Funny and Black is my live variety game show.
Speaker 1: I've been touring it since twenty sixteen. It actually we
Speaker 1: will have Smart Funny and Black dates on the Black
Speaker 1: Outside Again tour, so you can catch us in La Detroit, Atlanta. Yes,
Speaker 1: and we will be at the Candy Center. So I'm
Speaker 1: doing a weekend at the Candy Center twenty second and
Speaker 1: twenty thirds. You can see stand up, you can see
Speaker 1: my podcast live small Doses, and you can see Smartphonnie
Speaker 1: and Black. So I've lost my train of thought. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: So I went and did I did this. I did
Speaker 1: this show, and that night I learned that the Smartphonnie
Speaker 1: and Black Junetee special that I had sold that we
Speaker 1: were going to have to walk away. And we had
Speaker 1: to walk away because the network that we were selling
Speaker 1: it to refuse to negotiate with us and give us
Speaker 1: the money that we needed to do the show that
Speaker 1: we sold them. And it was so frustrating because I
Speaker 1: felt like I had gotten so close and I knew
Speaker 1: that we couldn't do this because it was going to
Speaker 1: require us to have to ask for favors. And it's
Speaker 1: so irritating to me that so often with black projects
Speaker 1: we have to ask for favors, we have to, you know,
Speaker 1: eke this shut. And it's not to say that other
Speaker 1: projects don't have the same thing, but this was particularly
Speaker 1: a junteenth project that I was doing in partnership with Juggernauts. Okay,
Speaker 1: I was doing this in partnership with Jesse Collins and
Speaker 1: with Heartbeat, we shouldn't have had to deal with those
Speaker 1: types of limitations and obstacles as it really should have
Speaker 1: been like, oh, like, how can we make this happen?
Speaker 1: And the idea to me of having black creatives work
Speaker 1: for free on juneteen, Yeah, you can't show change black creators.
Speaker 1: I can't. It's really counterintuitive. But I had to walk
Speaker 1: away from in it. It just broke my heart that
Speaker 1: I was once again put in that position of having
Speaker 1: to have having to stand on principles in the face
Speaker 1: of this predatory capitalist bullet. And I hit the stage
Speaker 1: and hit the stage after that. I love talking to
Speaker 1: personalities that can do radio and podcasts and everything. It
Speaker 1: makes it so easy, so light. It's Amanda Seals. We
Speaker 1: love you Seals. Thank y'all, love y'all to break umble

Speaker 1: that he you don't trust this administration. But ten months ago,
Speaker 1: whenever they were voting, he was Item's best friend. He
Speaker 1: was riding with Biden. That's a lie. You are a liar,
Speaker 1: you know. He always said he didn't trust. I never
Speaker 1: liked Joe Biden. Ever, I like Kamala Harris Man, I
Speaker 1: you know what you're talking about. It. I always said
Speaker 1: that we are you talking about? I'll tell you if
Speaker 1: he's lying. He said that from the door. I voted
Speaker 1: for him, but he was riding with Biden. Now I
Speaker 1: was not riding with no goddamn by w talking about

Speaker 1: more than just an album. I feel the universe and
Speaker 1: the energy like around it. Like I really feel like
Speaker 1: it's a moment of triumph for me when I wasn't
Speaker 1: even trying to celebrate. You know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: I went through so much recording this project and just
Speaker 1: so much in life growing as a man, and this
Speaker 1: album is a complete reflection, a complete testament of who
Speaker 1: I am and have grown as a man. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I was gonna ask you know, you
Speaker 1: got two kids, and I've been seeing your video of
Speaker 1: your of your kids beating you up right, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: ask you know, how has that changed you? I always say,
Speaker 1: like the happiest I'm gonna ever being just hanging with
Speaker 1: my kids. You know what I'm saying, especially when I
Speaker 1: got all three. I'm in the house together. Man, It's
Speaker 1: it's perfect, you know what I'm saying. And your side
Speaker 1: the only thing you know I'm thinking as I'm walking
Speaker 1: here for real, and I knew y'all was gonna ask
Speaker 1: me something about my kids and the main the reason
Speaker 1: why I go so hard and why it's so important
Speaker 1: because the talent that I spent away from my kids
Speaker 1: got to mean something. Mane I'm really sacrificing time away
Speaker 1: from my kids, not seeing them for this, You feel me,
Speaker 1: So it gotta mean something. It gotta it gotta work,
Speaker 1: you know. It gotta work for me, It gotta work
Speaker 1: for them, because that's the foundation that I'm laying you.
Speaker 1: I'm saying it, and my kids don't know they did
Speaker 1: g Herbo for real, Like he'll sign no because everybody,
Speaker 1: you know, we'll be walking or in the airport or
Speaker 1: something and people would be like, heyo, sign hey you
Speaker 1: like do you know my name? He fig he don't
Speaker 1: really understand. He asked me now like daddy and my
Speaker 1: famous I want to tell them now. But they put
Speaker 1: them on my bike. Yeah yeah, it's different, man, like
Speaker 1: just having them around other kids and stuff. You know,
Speaker 1: they treat them like a celebrity. But it's like I'm
Speaker 1: saying that to say, like I want all my kids
Speaker 1: to have foundation balance. You feel me. So it got
Speaker 1: to mean something. Me moving fast, I'll be on the
Speaker 1: road so much and worry about money and you you
Speaker 1: don't even you don't even realize you're really raising your
Speaker 1: kids a certain way. I'm saying, like, I don't want
Speaker 1: my kids to write grow up how I grew up
Speaker 1: for one, but I don't want them to grow up
Speaker 1: just like an industry kid or like, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I want my kid to grow up regular man.
Speaker 1: I want them to just have his innocence, you femily charismatic,
Speaker 1: and freedom to just beat them all my kids, you
Speaker 1: know I'm saying. And that's important. So and I always
Speaker 1: used to say that I gotta go hard while I
Speaker 1: could have the freedom to take a y'all for real,
Speaker 1: like a real year, to just travel and be with
Speaker 1: my family, you know what I'm saying, Like I always
Speaker 1: been wanted to be that type of artist to have that,
Speaker 1: because I feel like I ain't gonna be able to
Speaker 1: raise my kids right if I'm just focus on Yes,
Speaker 1: I's on the album too, he understand that. How did
Speaker 1: he react? He was He called me on FaceTime and
Speaker 1: he called me first. He's like, Daddy, it's your birthday.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, it's my birthday. He said, I didn't
Speaker 1: miss it, saying no, He's I was so scared I
Speaker 1: was gonna miss your birthday and just dropped. Your birthday
Speaker 1: just dropped. When you're talking about the album, your birthday
Speaker 1: just came out and he was um. He listening to
Speaker 1: the song. He was listening to UM put me on
Speaker 1: the TV. And he turned around, like it's just crazy
Speaker 1: that he really understand it. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like he's seeing and not he a fan of the music.
Speaker 1: Hill just listen to my music, you feel he just
Speaker 1: saying the music and the culture. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But that's like I noticed that, and that's why what
Speaker 1: my kids I just let them o how I grew up.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm so smart that I was exposed to
Speaker 1: so much. You know what I'm saying, Like, you gotta
Speaker 1: still expose your kids to two things so we could learn.
Speaker 1: Like I feel like that's knowledge that my son growing
Speaker 1: and I'm just be able to like polish it all
Speaker 1: up just about talking to him. And you know, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be honest with all my kids, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, And that's how they're gonna have to structure
Speaker 1: that foundation because that's how I got my parents, was
Speaker 1: just honest with brutally on it. We saw you in
Speaker 1: a protective father mold when it was that when you
Speaker 1: was out with your child and somebody, Yeah, I was
Speaker 1: being a little too pushy. Yeah, yeah, the crew League.
Speaker 1: The crew League. I didn't trying to like, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm cool, I'm friendly, you know what I'm saying. But
Speaker 1: I would just be trying to like it ain't really that,
Speaker 1: you know, because a lot of times we'd be trying
Speaker 1: to go viral, and I was stopping it right then
Speaker 1: because he had been something that would have offended me.
Speaker 1: It would have went all the way to a whole
Speaker 1: other level. So people thought I was I was joking,
Speaker 1: but I wasn't. Really. I wasn't Madden, and I was
Speaker 1: just showing them, like, don't play, especially when you with
Speaker 1: your kids. I don't even play well with nobody that
Speaker 1: I care about, you feel, especially my kids. So I
Speaker 1: just wanted to just let like just draw that lane
Speaker 1: right there now. You talked about wanting to maybe take
Speaker 1: a year off if you felt like it and be
Speaker 1: able to take a break. But last year, I know
Speaker 1: you went through a lot. So how was it for
Speaker 1: you to be able to get back to work and
Speaker 1: how did you deal during that time? Um, it was
Speaker 1: a lot. I online and I went to a real slump.
Speaker 1: I would say it was depression, but you know, like
Speaker 1: like we were saying another day. We wouldn't call it
Speaker 1: the pressure. We're a thing that you know, it's cool,
Speaker 1: like all right, it's just a tough patch of my life.
Speaker 1: But really being the press stop when I when myler
Speaker 1: brother died. Out of the whole year, I don't even
Speaker 1: think I had a whole month. So but like I'm
Speaker 1: in total days, like I was drinking. Literally every day
Speaker 1: I wake up drinking. I'm drinking going to work during
Speaker 1: interviews and besides having fun and nobody never see me
Speaker 1: anything like oh heard with drunk, Yeah at all? He
Speaker 1: can't work. I was stugging through it. It was hard.
Speaker 1: It's tough to, you know, go through that and be
Speaker 1: honest with you, it was I'm knowing every day like, man,
Speaker 1: I'm drinking too much. Feel you know how I feel
Speaker 1: to be like I'm drinking. You're feeling like you're an alcoholic.
Speaker 1: What you're still drinking. That's because you want to be
Speaker 1: able to get through the day. And it was tough,
Speaker 1: you know. And I got discipline at the end of
Speaker 1: the day. And that's crazy. I got a discipline. I
Speaker 1: have addictive personality where I could snap out of something
Speaker 1: so quick and snap the end so quickly, you know,
Speaker 1: what I'm saying when I'm when I want to do
Speaker 1: something it's cool. Can't nobody tell me that? My girl,
Speaker 1: my mom and everybody. I'm like, I'm just drinking, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, because I was depressed and I
Speaker 1: felt like I had to go through it a certain
Speaker 1: way on my own feeling, even though I got everybody
Speaker 1: around me trying to help me and push me through this.
Speaker 1: You know how I go when you're stubborn, you feel
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and can't nobody I don't have to listen
Speaker 1: to nobody feeling. I got my own money, my own crib,
Speaker 1: my own cause I'm just doing what I want to do.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it's taken away
Speaker 1: so much. You feemilar. My daughter was and we joke
Speaker 1: about it now when my daughter was born, but I was.
Speaker 1: I was drunk in the delivery room, sleep drunk. I
Speaker 1: really went into a real depression when my little brother
Speaker 1: got killed. Family. How'd you get out of it? Though? Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm still in it, But like I said, I just
Speaker 1: snap out because I know I'm like, man, I can't
Speaker 1: keep drinking like this, you know what I'm saying. I
Speaker 1: can't keep I just got to snap out of it,
Speaker 1: you know. And it's crazy. As soon as my daughter
Speaker 1: was born, I started to get a little more dispol
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, it's a little more and that's all
Speaker 1: you need, just a little more to just be better
Speaker 1: tomorrow than you was. You feel I'm saying the day before,
Speaker 1: I'm still battling with it for show, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But I'm cool. You feel me. You had
Speaker 1: two sons first, and so how it's having a daughter
Speaker 1: different now? It's so different. Like I'll be saying, I'll
Speaker 1: be joking a lot. It's like, I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: scared of my daughters only four months. Yea, I got
Speaker 1: four of them, so it's only gonna get worse. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like so on as our head. Everything about it
Speaker 1: so delicate. You know you're afraid with my sons. I
Speaker 1: just it's cool. I'm afraid to hold a certain ways.
Speaker 1: So she started crying. I'm huh, fix it, Like I
Speaker 1: just don't want you to cry, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: That's crazy. That just know, like that's how I know
Speaker 1: our relationship gonna be. I just want to do whatever
Speaker 1: she needs. You feeling me like, whatever she wants me
Speaker 1: to do, I'm gonna do it, you know. And I
Speaker 1: could just tell just by the relationship that we got already.
Speaker 1: She's sassy, like she worse than my mama, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like she's super sick. She gonna control them, right,
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I just want to do whatever she
Speaker 1: tells me. All right, We got more with g Herbot
Speaker 1: when we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast Club. God,
Speaker 1: morning morning. Everybody a Charlemagne, the guy we are the
Speaker 1: breakfast Club was still kicking it with g Herbo. Charlemagne.
Speaker 1: Why was it important for you to like start showing
Speaker 1: the world your scars and your trump. You know, it
Speaker 1: was important for me because I was helping other people
Speaker 1: that's like me, you know what I'm saying, And that's
Speaker 1: like that's a fault too, you know, that's one of
Speaker 1: my flaws, because I actually want people to think like me.
Speaker 1: Safe For instance, I was an og where I come from,
Speaker 1: when nobody would be really giving me the sousa and
Speaker 1: pouring all the knowledge and everything that they have and
Speaker 1: to me for me to be better than them. I
Speaker 1: really want everybody around me to be better. Sometimes they
Speaker 1: think I'm tweaking, like you're preaching me, you want me
Speaker 1: to do this, or you know, sometimes you don't even
Speaker 1: want to open up and tell people because it hurts you.
Speaker 1: Like I'm trying to give you the game. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to give you the sous you feel me like that's
Speaker 1: something that's always been a music. I'm just trying to
Speaker 1: be myself, you know what I'm saying, Like I don't
Speaker 1: really go on a studio and but like I need
Speaker 1: to make a song to make me turn up, or
Speaker 1: I need to look good for my fans, or you know,
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to just get through the day for real,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And that's why it's easy
Speaker 1: for me to just open up and be vulnerable with
Speaker 1: my music. Sometimes I don't even wanting to me because
Speaker 1: I don't take none personal. People take it personally. Sometimes
Speaker 1: my music, I might be talking about something that I
Speaker 1: went through with my mom. My mom, Main's gonna get
Speaker 1: offended that I said something that you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like other people might get offended about something you're saying.
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it's a form
Speaker 1: of therapy. I go to the studio and sometimes I
Speaker 1: know the song ain't even going to come out, but
Speaker 1: I just want to get it off my chest. We
Speaker 1: meet doing that, people who look up to me, like,
Speaker 1: all right, they get it. He going through this or
Speaker 1: he's talking about this this way, and like, were just
Speaker 1: at the minimum. And Anthony Hamilton said, like, everybody don't
Speaker 1: got the same story, but we relate in a lot
Speaker 1: of ways. We go through the same things, you feel
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So that's why I'll be trying to do
Speaker 1: it because I know if I just at it all
Speaker 1: out there, it's gonna help somebody in some type of
Speaker 1: Waycause somebody don't relate to it. It ain't even about me.
Speaker 1: Bro ROMs. After I drowed my album, I ain't even
Speaker 1: want to say this, you know what I'm saying. It's
Speaker 1: just like, but when the first a sad drop, it
Speaker 1: was just me and Nick in the studio, me and
Speaker 1: my engineer, and I cried tears because it ain't about
Speaker 1: the music. It's like, you know, I really hear I
Speaker 1: did something. I completed something that I was trying to
Speaker 1: complete while I was going through a lot of stuff.
Speaker 1: You feel me like, that's what it was important to me.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm gonna talk about it through my music
Speaker 1: because I want people to know like I'm doing it
Speaker 1: and you should. Man, you know, it's so interesting. It's like,
Speaker 1: you know, you were at the Mental Effects for this weekend.
Speaker 1: I thank you for you know, pulling up because when
Speaker 1: you see those young people in the audience, it's one
Speaker 1: thing to hear me talking about things and hear all
Speaker 1: of those like you know, psychiatrists and therapists talking about
Speaker 1: things when they see g Herbal twenty something years old,
Speaker 1: successful rapper, just bearing it all and letting people know,
Speaker 1: like yo, you go through things too. That makes them
Speaker 1: want to get on their healing journey super early and
Speaker 1: make you want to turn up. That's right. I can't
Speaker 1: be sitting here just the pressure drowning in my thoughts,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because I'm smoking it away,
Speaker 1: drinking it because it's easy to do that. But at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's even better when you
Speaker 1: just like you take that in turn and fuel and
Speaker 1: get on your grind and make you like appreciate the pain.
Speaker 1: And you have the nonprofit too, right Yeah, swing through
Speaker 1: storm all right? So what's going on with that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Super important Swarring through Stress. I partner with Mahomie McKinley
Speaker 1: Projects switched Swarring through Stress for me. It started, I
Speaker 1: was it was supposed to be like a mental health hotline.
Speaker 1: You know. We just started to get a number to
Speaker 1: like one hundred kids, one hundred and fifty kids. But
Speaker 1: when we launched it, it probably was like what like
Speaker 1: five ten thousand people sat there for instantly, so I knew,
Speaker 1: like it's for really, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: we got the facility, We own the facility back at home,
Speaker 1: and we're about to really have like therapists that are
Speaker 1: like five days a week. You found saying like arts
Speaker 1: engineering and videoography, trade swarving through stresses, being able to
Speaker 1: navigate through life, and we're giving you the tools to
Speaker 1: be able to do that, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Because we're not saying it's gonna be easy life. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be hard as gonna be tough, but at least
Speaker 1: we're gonna give you the resources to be able to,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, take it in and build
Speaker 1: something from it. You know what I'm saying. It's hard
Speaker 1: when you're going through stuff and you don't have no opportunity.
Speaker 1: You know, when it's tough when you in the in
Speaker 1: the streets, you don't got no food, no no family,
Speaker 1: no nothing. You know what I'm saying, Like it's hard
Speaker 1: when you had that n d N you have nothing
Speaker 1: to look forward to. We're gonna get y'all something to
Speaker 1: look forward to. You feel me. I'm gonna do my
Speaker 1: all to brain resources back, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: To Chicago, you feel me? How early on did you
Speaker 1: arrive at the place where you wanted to start your
Speaker 1: healing process? I think I really started for real, probably
Speaker 1: around like when my son was first born, your song
Speaker 1: was born, like two doe Um. I was going through something.
Speaker 1: I was fighting the case in Chicago, you know, And
Speaker 1: that was like COVID for me for real. When I
Speaker 1: was fighting that guncase in Chicago, I couldn't move, I
Speaker 1: couldn't travel. I didn't do no shows for a year,
Speaker 1: like nothing. And behind the scenes, it was real, real stressful,
Speaker 1: and nobody really know nothing that I was going through,
Speaker 1: Like right before COVID hit. As soon as I beat
Speaker 1: the case and I was able to travel, I probably
Speaker 1: was able to do shows for like two or three months.
Speaker 1: And COVID hit and it was like really out then
Speaker 1: and there like two years without happen. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Did you have good savers or something like yeah,
Speaker 1: I was definitely saying. My mom was still make it
Speaker 1: and that's the create residual before. So I've always been
Speaker 1: making money, but I never I wasn't making show money.
Speaker 1: I wanted to making acillary money when I was always
Speaker 1: making residual money, you know what I'm saying. But at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, it was still tough because
Speaker 1: I still got to pay employees. I gotta still pay
Speaker 1: my bills, I still got to pay security, be saved.
Speaker 1: I'm still doing all the things necessary to remain Gee Herbert,
Speaker 1: while I'm under the behind the scenes, I'm going through
Speaker 1: so much. My fans didn't know. I couldn't do no shows.
Speaker 1: My fans didn't know I couldn't see them, but nothing.
Speaker 1: I didn't do a show for it, y'all. Couldn't leave Chicago.
Speaker 1: I was stretched out. It was like a dark cloud
Speaker 1: over me. Bro I didn't want to be there at all,
Speaker 1: but I had to before, I'm saying, And I went
Speaker 1: through it though it was cool. You feel like me
Speaker 1: and my girl was at the worst we was. I
Speaker 1: was so mad, I was depressed. I couldn't do nothing
Speaker 1: but just be stuck in Chicago. You know what I'm
Speaker 1: saying it that was tough, but I'm saying that to
Speaker 1: say and I'm glad people can hit me saying that
Speaker 1: because it's always light at the end of the tune,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and being you would just
Speaker 1: get it'll make you mad at going to a slump
Speaker 1: like you feel me. A lot of people can't really
Speaker 1: survive going through a whole year. Really two years now,
Speaker 1: we bring it down like that because you said right up,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and that just it really
Speaker 1: just built character. I was like, my discipline was on
Speaker 1: a whole nother level after that. Gable to record during
Speaker 1: all that Tim That's all I was doing was recording.
Speaker 1: That's all I was doing, was recording music. And I
Speaker 1: just came over. Yeah, that's all I was doing was
Speaker 1: recording music that whole time. Literally some of them, some
Speaker 1: of them songs I recorded then, like steal songs that
Speaker 1: I'm putting out to this day. All Right, we got
Speaker 1: more with g Herbo when we come back. Don't move
Speaker 1: it's to Breakfast Club the morning. The morning everybody is Charleman,
Speaker 1: the guy we are. The Breakfast Club was still kicking
Speaker 1: it with g Herbo. You think that people don't respect
Speaker 1: the Chicago music scene the way that they should. I
Speaker 1: was just at that Chella's birthday party, my girl Chella,
Speaker 1: and I've seen Sasha Gohard was there, Katie got Band,
Speaker 1: you know you was there. But you guys have a
Speaker 1: lot of great artists. But Charlemagne, you guys can have
Speaker 1: this discussion about the whole Chief Key thing that went viral,
Speaker 1: And so what are your thoughts on that. You think
Speaker 1: people aren't giving you guys the credit. It's about accountability too.
Speaker 1: I don't I'm not even gonna say people are not
Speaker 1: giving us the credit. We're not really like laying out
Speaker 1: marked the way we're supposed to be film saying. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying that because I feel like we just need
Speaker 1: to unify more and that's what makes other cities stick out.
Speaker 1: And I ain't even gonna say that we don't get
Speaker 1: the respect because people see it. They just waiting on
Speaker 1: us to go crazy, Like Katie got a song with
Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj right now. You feel we always hit the
Speaker 1: respect that we deserve, but we just gotta like it.
Speaker 1: Chicago's always got a nick credit music. While yeah, I've
Speaker 1: never looked. We always got our credit, like everybody from
Speaker 1: our generation to the generation before. We always got our
Speaker 1: flowers in Chicago. You know, I just feel like we
Speaker 1: never really capitalize off of it because we not together,
Speaker 1: something like that happen. I don't know. I really don't know, man,
Speaker 1: what you think, jav You gotta tell me. You spend
Speaker 1: that knowledge. When I think what we really need to
Speaker 1: unify is I think, geez, yeah, you know, I think, yeah, exact.
Speaker 1: A lot of times these kids go on their own
Speaker 1: and they hard because of the trauma. It's hard for
Speaker 1: them to trust. The difference in what Herb has is
Speaker 1: that he has exacts that have been around the business
Speaker 1: that can help him and let him see what he
Speaker 1: needs to actually see in order for him to grow.
Speaker 1: And I think that as we continue to do that
Speaker 1: with all these kids and more exacts come along, I
Speaker 1: think that you will begin to see how we can
Speaker 1: grow as a community in the business. Those have the
Speaker 1: chief keep Comma because I think what people got I
Speaker 1: never said Chief Keief was an influential I said that
Speaker 1: the exactly what you said. Yeah, I said, the four
Speaker 1: most influential rappers of all time is Pop, Jay, Wayne,
Speaker 1: and Kanye. And then Nyla was like, when you gotta
Speaker 1: put Chief keeping, and I was like, why wouldn't put
Speaker 1: Chief keeping? That fall? Because Chief keep influence to sound
Speaker 1: in a region. Not saying he's not influential. I just
Speaker 1: don't think he's wanted the foremost influential rappers of all time. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: see look and we both got confusous with that. That's
Speaker 1: what I meant when I was saying it, it's a sound.
Speaker 1: He influenced a sound and a generation of kids. That
Speaker 1: and even though Socialism a global superstar, but even if
Speaker 1: he wasn't, just what he did and how he touched
Speaker 1: so many people and turned them into global superstars, that's
Speaker 1: what I meant. Like you, his influence is crazy. You know,
Speaker 1: he's never done an overseas show, never because I don't
Speaker 1: think he can leave it. I don't so same performed
Speaker 1: in Chicago like eight years. He could sell out two
Speaker 1: United Centers right now. I know he will. Like people
Speaker 1: gotta understand he that big was still like everything like
Speaker 1: I'm saying, hiccups the stuff that you go through behind
Speaker 1: the scene and you just make it look good. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like a lot of us are
Speaker 1: not really able to reach out full potential because we
Speaker 1: go through so much. You know what I'm saying, and
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. I can't tell you personally what
Speaker 1: he going through or what he may went through, Like
Speaker 1: he not able to go tour out the country. You
Speaker 1: know I'm saying, I can't go to out the country
Speaker 1: right now, you know what I'm saying. But I'm just
Speaker 1: saying that to say you don't know what nobody going
Speaker 1: through behind the scenes, and you're just trying to like
Speaker 1: be the best version of yourself. But I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker 1: I respect you, bro. You've always been just solid, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And it's it's hard to recognize
Speaker 1: solid people that are just like gonna speak they mad,
Speaker 1: you know. And it started a conversation and started controversy
Speaker 1: because it makes you think solid people gonna say stuff
Speaker 1: that make other people think. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: it like we need it. But you see how you
Speaker 1: see it generationally though, you see how clearly the whole generation,
Speaker 1: you're a whole generation be like, no, that's our guy.
Speaker 1: What you know, everybody social made everybody to get dreads.
Speaker 1: He made everybody rock true religion, like he had that
Speaker 1: Kanye effect on our generation. Real. But Wayne, don't say
Speaker 1: he called the whole generation to get dreamed. He wouldn't.
Speaker 1: He would two change will say I called the whole
Speaker 1: generation to start with a true religion or Jim Jones,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But I've seen it, though
Speaker 1: I ain't Like Wayne didn't do that, like he started
Speaker 1: making street dude. I've seen like real street dude started
Speaker 1: getting like lippids when Wayne did in Chicago, although that
Speaker 1: was unheard. Do you have a relationship with Wayne? I
Speaker 1: know he's your favorite. Yeah, he's my favorite like all
Speaker 1: the time for real. But that's why one of the
Speaker 1: foremost influential. Yeah, absolutely absolutely. Uh you know I hated
Speaker 1: him a few times. I mean I love him, like
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying in that then, but I
Speaker 1: really just I gotta connect for real real, Yeah, I'd
Speaker 1: be close to getting something. I really gotta get with
Speaker 1: him for real. Like that's when I really I'm gonna
Speaker 1: feel like I made it when I get that line,
Speaker 1: when I get a song Wayne. It's me and Wayne
Speaker 1: in the studio work. I'm gonna really feel like it's
Speaker 1: that speaking of another Chicago artist that has inspired the
Speaker 1: whole generation, Juice Work. Yea, how hard was it the
Speaker 1: right letter to Juice Work? I was one of them
Speaker 1: days just in the studio drinking when I'm vulnerable and
Speaker 1: I opened up. I gotta be by myself for real,
Speaker 1: especially when I'm talking about real stuff like I it
Speaker 1: just be like me and my engineer and that. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like late and the song came on, and it
Speaker 1: just I just started to think about him, like nothing,
Speaker 1: just make a song je to see if I can
Speaker 1: do it. You know, sometimes I challenge myself. It was
Speaker 1: like I wanted to do auto tune. You know. I
Speaker 1: was just just in my thoughts for real. Like that's
Speaker 1: why at the end, I just started talking like I
Speaker 1: really felt like I was talking to him for real.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Juice, That's like it'd be
Speaker 1: still like I don't really hit home all the time,
Speaker 1: like trying to just you know, face the reality of
Speaker 1: him not really being a lie. That's one person I
Speaker 1: feel like I've really been in there now about him
Speaker 1: being dead since you know what I'm saying, since it happened,
Speaker 1: it'd be hard feeling, like to acknowledge, especially when you
Speaker 1: got to see his face all the time, you got
Speaker 1: to hear his music. You know what I'm saying, it'd
Speaker 1: be hard to really like acknowledge it, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So I guess me making that song was
Speaker 1: just like trying to holler at them. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You said, I miss your soul. Made my
Speaker 1: heart cold, but now I'm hot at you. I describe
Speaker 1: those rangeable moves and it made me mad, bro, like
Speaker 1: for real, Like I couldn't fathom him not being here,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying to him, not his journey,
Speaker 1: It was so the upscale was just so big for him,
Speaker 1: and just it ain't even about music, just him being
Speaker 1: a real pure that was a real pure soul for
Speaker 1: real bro, like a real good dude. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Like we ain't post to lose nobody like him,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like the world really needed
Speaker 1: a little bro, you know. And that's what I meant
Speaker 1: by that, Like really he knows, like we used to
Speaker 1: have the conversation right now, you know, I'm real mad
Speaker 1: about you know what I'm saying about that, just the
Speaker 1: way it happened, Yeah, the way it happened, just him
Speaker 1: not being here. You know what I'm saying. What I
Speaker 1: mean is fighting his demons alone. He didn't have to
Speaker 1: do that, you know what I'm saying. Like and we
Speaker 1: are thinking, you know, like I said, we artists were
Speaker 1: on the road, were having fun, We're making money. You
Speaker 1: think getting hat like it's normal. You know people we'd
Speaker 1: be smiling. We go through we smile and still laughing,
Speaker 1: acting record, getting how you would think somebody getting hackers
Speaker 1: they just want to get hacky, really getting hack because
Speaker 1: he really liked hurt. And some people like get how
Speaker 1: to just be cool. Some people really need it for real,
Speaker 1: Like a person who going through something, it's gonna be
Speaker 1: the toughest when they in the room by theirselves. It's
Speaker 1: cool for me to smile and hang out with y'all
Speaker 1: while I'm here, were chilling, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But when I'm in a room by myself, that's what
Speaker 1: I'm in my thoughts. You feel me, So I feel
Speaker 1: like that's a dangerous type of person, A dangerous person
Speaker 1: to be to take on so much and when they
Speaker 1: get by theirselfs in the room and their thoughts, that's
Speaker 1: when you know, like who a person is for you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, And that's what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: he ain't have to be that person. Family had too
Speaker 1: many people around him that loved or what you know,
Speaker 1: And I just want to open up and say that
Speaker 1: because I know now I ain't going through nothing by myself.
Speaker 1: It's just it is what it is. I don't care
Speaker 1: people could look at me crazy or whatever. Like I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna open up about what I'm going through because
Speaker 1: I can't go through. I used too many people that
Speaker 1: depend on me for me to feel like I'm alone. Family,
Speaker 1: I'm anna build a world support around me before I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm alone. Yeah, that's all. You said that
Speaker 1: in complex you talked about your depression and you said
Speaker 1: you don't even know the support that you have until
Speaker 1: you open up and say something. But I'm like, damn,
Speaker 1: Juice World was super open in his music, Like you
Speaker 1: could listen to Juice's music and he was telling you
Speaker 1: he was going through things, so like nobody reached out, like, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I used to talk to Liboro all the time. About
Speaker 1: like it, and it'd be like even like not too personal,
Speaker 1: like the smallest thing brom somebody going through with a
Speaker 1: girl or want to have a conversation with a mom
Speaker 1: or a friend or anybody. You know, just the pressure
Speaker 1: of having so many people around you all the time.
Speaker 1: You feel me like those be the little things that
Speaker 1: really drive people off the lands. It don't even really
Speaker 1: be like the super super deep. It's every day that
Speaker 1: you're not really able to open up and say what
Speaker 1: it is because the people around you supposed to be
Speaker 1: able to open up to them too. If I'm around
Speaker 1: you every single day, you feel me like I supposed
Speaker 1: to be able to talk to you. I feel like
Speaker 1: as artists, we like ignore that you feel me like
Speaker 1: and then we'd be thinking like, all right, it's cool,
Speaker 1: we're just getting have we having fun and it just
Speaker 1: pick up like it take a toll on your road,
Speaker 1: like you feel what I'm saying. I could just be
Speaker 1: moving on a goat on a run so much and
Speaker 1: then just me being tired, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: could faint, pass out anything, just not saying I'm tad.
Speaker 1: You feel me like we need to be able to
Speaker 1: say sometimes like as an artist. You don't even want
Speaker 1: to say you tad. I'm tad man. I don't need
Speaker 1: to go to sleep for a whole day. You feel
Speaker 1: me like we need it? My man David mc color
Speaker 1: he said, it's the mental welfextpo Exaturday. He said, how
Speaker 1: many of y'all wait up and don't feel arrested. I'm like, damn,
Speaker 1: I never even thought about it. Like, yo, you wake
Speaker 1: up and don't even you still don't feel arrested. Crazy,
Speaker 1: but you can't even turn your mind one the breakfast club,
Speaker 1: good morning. I was born to Donkey, the Donkey Devil
Speaker 1: breakfast Club. Yes, Donkey to Dave goes to John Dempsey?
Speaker 1: Who is John Dempsey. John Dempsey was a top executive
Speaker 1: with Estate Lauder Okay, you know the makeup company Estate Lawder.
Speaker 1: John Dempsey was a senior executive there. In fact, he
Speaker 1: was the executive group president. I don't know what that means,
Speaker 1: but it sounds important either way. He was told by
Speaker 1: Estate Lawder that he must leave the company this week
Speaker 1: after he shared material on his Instagram account that does
Speaker 1: not reflect the values of the Esta Lauder companies. That
Speaker 1: damn social media strikes again, all right? The problem with
Speaker 1: social media is your page is probably boring if it
Speaker 1: reflects the values of the company you work for. All right,
Speaker 1: nobody wants to follow a basic, boring page that's reflecting
Speaker 1: its company's values. We want to be entertained by any
Speaker 1: means necessary. And that's what this senior executive at Estate
Speaker 1: lawder John Dempsey did yesterday. He chose entertainment over Estate
Speaker 1: lauder See. John got fired because he posted a meme.
Speaker 1: The meme was sessime screen themed. What do you mean,
Speaker 1: Uncle Charlotte was sessing me screen themed? It was a
Speaker 1: mock cover of a little golden book. It had big
Speaker 1: bird on the cover with a mask on, sitting next
Speaker 1: to snuff of luff against sick in bed. And the
Speaker 1: title said, and I'm quoting the title, my nigga snuff
Speaker 1: you don't got the rona at a Chinney concert. Now,
Speaker 1: for us regular folks, that's just the regular day on
Speaker 1: social media, just the regular meme. But John Demsey is
Speaker 1: sixty five years old, and he's a sixty five year
Speaker 1: old white man who works at Estate Lauder Lessen Pactice.
Speaker 1: As my therapist would say, Now, I like funny, Okay.
Speaker 1: I guess some might even say I have a sixth
Speaker 1: sense in humor. I appreciate people who can find the
Speaker 1: funny in any in everything. But here's the thing about
Speaker 1: that mean. It wasn't even funny to me at least
Speaker 1: maybe I don't get the joke. I didn't understand it. Sesamescreet,
Speaker 1: big Bird, Snufflelophagus, Cheney concert, covid my Nigga stuff head
Speaker 1: and got the rona at a Chiney concert? What does
Speaker 1: that even mean? Okay? I don't see the correlation at all.
Speaker 1: That's the first problem. The second problem is John Dempsey's apology.
Speaker 1: I can't say whether his apology was some sire or not.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's apologetic, but it was the reasoning he said.
Speaker 1: I am terribly sorry and deeply ashamed that I hurt
Speaker 1: so many people when I made the horrible mistake of
Speaker 1: carelessly reporting a racist meme without reading it beforehand. Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't need to hear anymore. If you didn't read
Speaker 1: the mean beforehand, John, then what did you even posted for?
Speaker 1: Was it for the picture? Did you think big Bird
Speaker 1: in a mask sitting bedside while snuff for luf against
Speaker 1: was sick was such a compelling picture that the world
Speaker 1: needed to see it. Who doesn't read memes before they
Speaker 1: post them? Vy? Have you ever read didn't read it
Speaker 1: mean before you posted it? Angelie? Have you ever not
Speaker 1: read a mean before you posted it? No? Anybody in
Speaker 1: this room have they ever done that? No, nobody does that.
Speaker 1: There are certain rules in life one must follow, Okay,
Speaker 1: Like you know you can't bring liquids through TSA. You
Speaker 1: know you shouldn't feed gremlins after midnight, well, maguay after midnight,
Speaker 1: all right? You don't say candy man three times in
Speaker 1: a mirror, And never ever ever posting meme without reading it.
Speaker 1: Nobody does that. Okay. We all post memes because we've
Speaker 1: read them. Okay, that's the whole point of posting a meme,
Speaker 1: because we've read it and we liked them, and they
Speaker 1: either motivated us and raised us or made us laugh.
Speaker 1: So we share those meme with our followers so that
Speaker 1: our followers can feel the way that we do. John,
Speaker 1: you knew exactly what you was doing, and I would
Speaker 1: have respected you more if you said, Hey, I just
Speaker 1: thought it was funny, Okay, I didn't know any better,
Speaker 1: all right, And I thought the N word was used
Speaker 1: in context, all right. I didn't think it was racist.
Speaker 1: I didn't personally say this all types of other things.
Speaker 1: You could have said it was on a meme, all right,
Speaker 1: that right there would have opened up a discussion, a debate.
Speaker 1: But to say you didn't read the meme, nobody believes that, now,
Speaker 1: stated Lawton. Must have you heard your excuse and said,
Speaker 1: oh word, well I can do you better. All right,
Speaker 1: you didn't read the meme before you posted it. Well,
Speaker 1: they released a statement that said John Dempsey wasn't fired,
Speaker 1: but rather was told he had to leave the company
Speaker 1: and agreed to retire this week. Now I should give
Speaker 1: y'all donkey today for that. What's the difference between getting
Speaker 1: fired and getting told to leave the company? You're not
Speaker 1: giving me any other options, all right. That's when you
Speaker 1: tell somebody you don't gotta go home, but you have
Speaker 1: to get the hell out of her. See what I
Speaker 1: did there, chiney her her COVID, says me, alright, alright,
Speaker 1: tough cry. Please give John Dempsey the biggest he hall.
Speaker 1: And I was going to just ignore this, but I
Speaker 1: just have to say, for Canny man, it's five times
Speaker 1: not three. It just bothered me. I was like I
Speaker 1: was a little sly, but I just had to you know,
Speaker 1: I didn't know. I thought it three times canny man? Okay,
Speaker 1: but why why chingy though? That's what I'm saying. None
Speaker 1: of this makes sense, None of it none, None of
Speaker 1: it makes sense. The meme didn't make any sense. There
Speaker 1: was absolutely no reason the post at me. It wasn't
Speaker 1: even funny. Mine his business, his damn business. Mine His
Speaker 1: business is over there somewhere. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Damn like like that had nothing to do with nothing.
Speaker 1: I didn't get it, he responded, So now you don't
Speaker 1: love he was making ten million dollars a year. What
Speaker 1: a year? A year? He was making ten million dollars.
Speaker 1: I'd have said, I got hacked. He got hacked, I
Speaker 1: got hacked. He's not that savvy. I've never I've never
Speaker 1: heard that. I've never heard nobody have been like, can
Speaker 1: someone help me get my account back? Yeah. He could
Speaker 1: have just said he thought it was in contact. He
Speaker 1: didn't think it was race, so he just thought it
Speaker 1: was funny. That's what he should have leaned on. He
Speaker 1: was like, I didn't know I couldn't post the me
Speaker 1: and and the N word wasn't even spelled out. On
Speaker 1: to me had to start. That's what I'm saying, sir,
Speaker 1: you think, No, I don't. Actually I really don't. I
Speaker 1: don't think you should have gotten fire of that. No, No,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know. All right, Well, thank you for that.
Speaker 1: Don Kiddy was waiting for something. Yeah, there was an
Speaker 1: excuse to hear him. He's been there for a long time.
Speaker 1: He paid a lot of money. Because I would have
Speaker 1: said my account got hacked. I would have said that
Speaker 1: I didn't know it said because I thought it said
Speaker 1: nice people. I don't know I have nice people. It
Speaker 1: was literally like a star star star. I mean, he
Speaker 1: could have used the better excuse than I didn't read me.
Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. By the way, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: sit here and say if he should have got fired,
Speaker 1: and that's not that's not my called him. Okay, he
Speaker 1: gave me half a salary. How to help him out?
Speaker 1: All right? Donkey to day? All right, what's next? See
Speaker 1: what were we talking about? I don't know you guys
Speaker 1: were discussing. I had an idea. I mean, I was
Speaker 1: talking about this Reddit post that this guy did. Um.
Speaker 1: He said that he was flying on a twelve hour
Speaker 1: flight from Japan back to the United States where he's from,
Speaker 1: and he was with his wife. He ended up getting
Speaker 1: an upgrade from economy into first class. It's a twelve
Speaker 1: hour flight, and he left his wife in economy, and
Speaker 1: so he was asking people, do you think that was
Speaker 1: wrong with me? Because his wife is mad and called
Speaker 1: him in a hole, so doing that, and so people
Speaker 1: were saying they would be extraordinarily upset, but he was
Speaker 1: saying he didn't think it mattered, and he did not
Speaker 1: choose business class over her. He said that she's just jealous.
Speaker 1: And what was he supposed to do not get this
Speaker 1: free upgrade. It's a twelve hour flat. You were going
Speaker 1: to be sleep the whole time anyway, so was I.
Speaker 1: It's not like we would be talking, right, all right,
Speaker 1: So let's talk about it. Eight hundred five eight five
Speaker 1: one on five one, right, you work with your spouse,
Speaker 1: your wife, right, Yeah, y'all get on the flight that
Speaker 1: you got Delta miles, American miles, United miles, you got JEMP.
Speaker 1: You have an opportunity first fly a lot. Oh. They say, hey,
Speaker 1: mister Johnson, we're gonna upgrade you because you fly so much.
Speaker 1: You say, oh, thank you so much. This is all
Speaker 1: my work. I've done the whole year. Oh but we can't. Whoa,
Speaker 1: you can't upgrade my baby, my love of my life.

Speaker 1: This guy was asking people is he an a hole?
Speaker 1: His wife said that he is, and they were on
Speaker 1: a twelve hour flight going from Japan to the United
Speaker 1: States for vacation. He thought they would be sitting next
Speaker 1: to each other, but then he got upgraded to first
Speaker 1: class and his wife didn't have that opportunity. She didn't
Speaker 1: have the miles for it, and so she's mad that he,
Speaker 1: the way she looks at it, chose business class over her. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and she's absolutely right to be mad. You don't do that.
Speaker 1: That's your wife, you know what I'm saying. You ride,
Speaker 1: you ride, you're hid back into anything you leave with
Speaker 1: the people that you came. That's the way I look
Speaker 1: at that. If both of us can't sit in first class,
Speaker 1: and either one of us gonna sitting first class, that's
Speaker 1: your wife. That's not your friend. He said that. He
Speaker 1: was like, I'm not gonna miss my opportunity to sit
Speaker 1: in business class. And I just a twelve hour flight
Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter if I sit next to my
Speaker 1: wife or not. Just a twelve hour flight. Yeah right,
Speaker 1: but you had a bad up there and all kind
Speaker 1: of stuff. If anything, let her slut sitting first class.
Speaker 1: I will say this though, that that's happened to me.
Speaker 1: Not twelve hour flight though, you know, smaller flights. And
Speaker 1: sometimes my wife would be like, look, you're taller than me.
Speaker 1: You need the leg when you sit up there, And
Speaker 1: I said, you know, and she's sitting up the comfort.
Speaker 1: But there's times when I'd like, now, baby, sit first
Speaker 1: class and I sit in the back, like recently, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It doesn't matter, but at a
Speaker 1: twelve hour flight and down down my wife in the back. Ah, man,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look for an older black woman on the
Speaker 1: flight and I'm gonna say, man, you can take my
Speaker 1: seat and sit in the back. Okay. What I would do,
Speaker 1: What would you do? I would take it, and I
Speaker 1: would say in six hours, next switch and I would
Speaker 1: and this is what I would hope for. I would
Speaker 1: go first. I would hope that he would be asleep,
