Welcome back to another episode of the DJ Blaze radio show podcast.
[00:01:44] Speaker A: It's your boy be easy and I am black bike week.
[00:01:49] Speaker B: Timeless and a classic.
[00:01:51] Speaker A: Mm hmm. Can't be stopped.
[00:01:53] Speaker B: No. Can't be.
[00:01:55] Speaker A: Can't be shut down.
[00:01:56] Speaker B: You know how bad I just wanted to say, can't stop. Won't stop.
[00:02:00] Speaker A: That was actually in my head. Can't nobody, can't nobody hold me down.
The music man.
[00:02:10] Speaker B: Yeah, I was listening to the episode from last week, and I had got to that part where you was like, I can't give up the music. That's the last thing I remember on that episode, but, yeah. Um, so we here. I don't know why it sounds so low in my opinion, but, um, anyway, welcome back, everybody.
Um, how was your week, Amy?
[00:02:31] Speaker A: Actually, good. Um, end of the school year, so celebrations.
[00:02:36] Speaker B: No more school.
[00:02:36] Speaker A: No more school. A special shout out to all the high school graduates out there. Um, a lot of my people.
[00:02:44] Speaker B: Your people?
[00:02:45] Speaker A: A lot of my people got kids graduating high school.
[00:02:49] Speaker B: There's so many.
[00:02:50] Speaker A: I still got so far to go.
[00:02:51] Speaker B: Not really well on the back end you do.
But you know what? With you having this one, you can, like, do some things, and there might be, like, some things you like. Well, you know, we could have did this or that. You can't make up for it for the next one. You know what I'm saying?
[00:03:07] Speaker A: From a high school graduate perspective.
[00:03:09] Speaker B: Or, like, it might be like, let's say, like, y'all have, like, a. Huh?
[00:03:12] Speaker A: Just raising him in general.
[00:03:13] Speaker B: No, not raising. I mean, like, for the graduation itself. Like, maybe y'all have, like, a party or something.
You ain't gonna have a graduation party.
[00:03:24] Speaker A: I don't think the teenagers like them parties. Them parties are for, like, older family. The teenagers never look like they having fun.
They always look like, okay, mom. Okay, mom. That's how they be looking in the pictures.
[00:03:37] Speaker B: You don't think you.
[00:03:38] Speaker A: Okay, mom.
[00:03:38] Speaker B: You don't think you'd want to do nothing by that time? Well, he got two more years.
[00:03:43] Speaker A: Three more.
[00:03:44] Speaker B: Three more.
[00:03:46] Speaker A: He's a rising sophomore.
I don't think teenagers enjoy those parties.
[00:03:52] Speaker B: I ain't talking about the teenagers. I'm talking about you. Yourself, for you.
[00:03:55] Speaker A: Why would I do that?
[00:03:56] Speaker B: I don't know. Just celebrate your kid. I don't know.
[00:03:59] Speaker A: No, I'm not gonna spend all that money if it's not for him, if he not gonna enjoy it.
Kids be looking so. Oh, I just want to go with my friends.
It only be, like, five of their friends there. Cause everybody having their own graduation party.
[00:04:17] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. And they meet up later. We had.
Did you have one?
[00:04:21] Speaker A: No, I barely. My dad ain't coming to my graduation.
Yeah, I said that on the show. I said that on here.
[00:04:29] Speaker B: He did.
[00:04:29] Speaker A: No.
[00:04:31] Speaker B: Mm.
[00:04:33] Speaker A: I'm sorry.
I didn't say Lafi.
He probably had something else to do. He might just slipped his mind. I don't know.
[00:04:42] Speaker B: I didn't want, you know, it thinking about it. Now that you say it, I don't think I wanted it.
A graduation party. My mom was like, this ain't for you.
[00:04:51] Speaker A: Exactly.
[00:04:52] Speaker B: So.
[00:04:53] Speaker A: But I went to. I went to one, though. I went to. Yeah, it was one of the friends who parents was just like, y'all grown now.
[00:05:00] Speaker B: Oh, so they had.
[00:05:01] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, I went to that graduation party.
[00:05:03] Speaker B: They got signs up about them people now, if you host and you do the most or something. Anyway, it's great. Shout out to everybody who got kids that graduated.
I don't feel like maybe because high school was kind of easy and I did little to no effort to get out of there on time. I probably could have graduated, like, a year or two early, but I technically did. You graduated.
[00:05:31] Speaker A: But I wanted to graduate with my class. I wanted to walk with my class.
[00:05:36] Speaker B: So you had, like, all your sciences and English and all that math out the way.
[00:05:40] Speaker A: Yep.
[00:05:40] Speaker B: Me too.
[00:05:40] Speaker A: That last year, I was just there. It was just showing up.
[00:05:43] Speaker B: I took PE all four years in high school.
[00:05:46] Speaker A: Me too.
[00:05:46] Speaker B: I took p three. Cause they only had three pes when I was in high school. I took p three twice.
[00:05:53] Speaker A: I know. Coach Boyd was tired of me.
[00:05:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
Coach Raziel shout out to coach Razel. He remember a time when I got caught looking at a girl. We was lifting weights. Shout out to my homeboy, Baines. Baines was lifting. I was supposed to be spotting him. It was heavyweights, too, and he was stuck. But I was caught looking at a girl in her shorts, and everybody that was in the weight room was like, b b.
And from that point on, whenever people was lifting weights, they wouldn't let me spot them. But I enjoy pee. But shout out to everybody that passed on time, so it really wasn't no big deal. Did you feel, like a sense of super accomplishment when you graduated high school?
[00:06:34] Speaker A: Mm, I should have, but it was just like, okay.
[00:06:41] Speaker B: It was.
It was one of my classmates. Everybody was hugging and stuff. I was like, we graduated. And she was like, boy, give me a hug.
[00:06:50] Speaker A: I was like, no, I will say this, and I don't know if too many people in my class listen, but grad night or what they call it in Florida. No, no, no, not grad night. Class night.
[00:07:02] Speaker B: Oh, when anybody get awards?
[00:07:03] Speaker A: Oh, I balled like a motherfucking baby that night.
[00:07:06] Speaker B: Oh, you did?
[00:07:07] Speaker A: That's when it really hit me. So, like, graduation, I hadn't got all that out, but class night, I was crying. I was like, I don't know if it was, like, emotional because I was watching everybody else with their families, and their parents was there.
[00:07:21] Speaker B: Oh.
[00:07:22] Speaker A: And I had just lost my mom. So I don't know if that was the emotions I was feeling or I just, you know, got all the motherfucking scholarships, you know what I'm saying? I don't know what it was, autumn awards. But I was, like, crying.
[00:07:34] Speaker B: It probably was all of that, all that mixed in together.
[00:07:37] Speaker A: I was like, oh, I miss you.
[00:07:39] Speaker B: Like, ugh, I didn't get. Okay. I didn't get no awards or nothing like that. Like I said, I just did whatever to get by. But I remember I got a little scholarship from the agriculture department or whatever.
Shout out to Uncle Willie. Cause he was the agriculture science. Like, one of the agriculture science teachers. He was, like, the head of the. What's it called?
What is ff?
[00:08:05] Speaker A: Future farmers. Future farmers of America.
[00:08:07] Speaker B: That he was over there or whatever. So I got some money for that. But I ain't got no scholarship. None of that. I was just at the grand. What is it called? Seeing that class night. I was just at class night with a shirt in town, and they called my name. I was like, what the fuck? I'm going to tech anyway.
But, yeah, shout out to the seniors.
Email us, y'all senior memories. I didn't cry about graduation. I didn't cry. Class night, like you said. Grad night, none of that. I cried the last football game. Nigga, all us was crying, which is crazy. But anyway, y'all thought y'all was gonna.
[00:08:45] Speaker A: Go to the playoffs or something.
[00:08:47] Speaker B: No, we was crying. Cause that was our last game.
[00:08:49] Speaker A: Oh, okay.
[00:08:50] Speaker B: Yeah, our last football game. Yeah, we could have went to the playoffs. We needed somebody to lose. But we beat our rival. We scored like 50 some points. Like 50 to twelve or something. Shout out to Hartsville.
What else you do? What you do this week.
[00:09:05] Speaker A: That's it. Avoid the sun.
That's it. It's hot.
[00:09:09] Speaker B: What day was school out?
[00:09:11] Speaker A: For my family, the last day was Tuesday, but for the rest of the district, the last day was Friday.
[00:09:19] Speaker B: Cause you know, your boy was already good. Yeah, he had all ninety's or something like that.
[00:09:24] Speaker A: No, he wasn't that good.
He exempted an exam.
[00:09:29] Speaker B: Big. That's big. That's big.
[00:09:31] Speaker A: He got a 90 on an exam. I didn't even realize it was a fucking honors class.
[00:09:36] Speaker B: That was what I saw. But it was a 90, though, right? It was like honest. Physics, psychology, psycho.
[00:09:43] Speaker A: He's like, yeah, I really, like. He, like, really enjoyed the class and got something out of it. And then he took his. He had an EOC, which is what replaced in South Carolina, the exit exam. So that was the big thing for us, is like getting over that hump.
[00:09:58] Speaker B: And he passed it.
[00:09:59] Speaker A: He passed it.
[00:10:00] Speaker B: But he only got that. So you said replaced, so he only had to take it out. So he ain't got to take it no more.
[00:10:04] Speaker A: There's per subject. So there's one for algebra, an algebra class in English. Two, biology and us history.
So whenever he takes those classes, he would take an EOC in those classes. And that will be the requirement for graduation in South Carolina.
[00:10:23] Speaker B: For us, it was just. Wasn't it math, reading and writing or something like that.
[00:10:28] Speaker A: I don't remember.
[00:10:30] Speaker B: I thought it was three parts. I just remember people, like, not passing the writing part, and I was like, all you had to do was write a five. Like, I just remember in whatever class that they taught us how to write papers, they always kept saying, write a five paragraph essay. Write a five paragraph essay. So I just wrote a five paragraph essay.
[00:10:47] Speaker A: School came too easy for me. I don't remember. Like, I passed the exit exam on the first time. First try.
[00:10:56] Speaker B: Me, too.
[00:10:56] Speaker A: I was.
[00:10:57] Speaker B: That was 10th grade, right?
[00:10:59] Speaker A: Yeah. I was always a year ahead in English. Like, I took my high school, my English one in middle school, middle school. And then. So by the time it was time to graduate, I was done. So, I don't know.
[00:11:11] Speaker B: They asked me in either the 9th or 10th grade did I want to take extra English. And I was like, well, if I take that extra English, then that'll mean I have to graduate early. Right? And it was like, yeah. I was like, no, I want to graduate with my class.
Cause I had took, like, algebra. I took the algebra one in middle school, so I already had pre algebra kind of, to high school algebra one.
So you know what I'm saying? I was on that then. My sciences, I had took. I think you had to take biology and chemistry to graduate or something like that.
[00:11:43] Speaker A: My boy took algebra last year, 9th grade. He took it in 8th grade.
[00:11:48] Speaker B: 8Th grade. Yeah. So he probably on the path to graduate early.
[00:11:50] Speaker A: No, no.
[00:11:51] Speaker B: Oh, he not.
[00:11:51] Speaker A: He fucked it up last year. He had to take it again. That's why he was taking it again.
[00:11:55] Speaker B: But I knew people that didn't take algebra till, like, the 11th grade.
[00:12:00] Speaker A: Yeah. When I took algebra in high school, there were a lot of upperclassmen in my class, and I used to have to help them out. Like, I was grading papers for the teacher. Shout out Miss Johnson, Miss Cottingham.
[00:12:10] Speaker B: They're still living.
[00:12:11] Speaker A: Yeah. She's still teaching at Lamar High. Yeah.
[00:12:14] Speaker B: I wonder what she knew when you got there. You don't even know. Back then, everybody looked old unless they was 23.
[00:12:19] Speaker A: Right.
And I didn't realize how young she is. Cause she's still there.
[00:12:24] Speaker B: Mm hmm. It's like my head football coach, I figure he is our age now. When we were in high school.
[00:12:33] Speaker A: Wow. And y'all probably thought that man was ancient.
[00:12:38] Speaker B: Well, we knew he was older than, like, some of the older coach, other coaches. Like, it was, you know, a couple of them that was, like, really younger. They had, like, the hairstyles that the guys had then, like, he just moved a little older, you know what I'm saying? Like. Cause he was like our parents. We knew he was our parents age, but now I like. But, yeah.
[00:12:58] Speaker A: So how was your week?
[00:12:59] Speaker B: My week? It was cool, you know, work.
Uh, it was something. Oh, you know that other week when you did some man shit? You fixed the toilet.
[00:13:09] Speaker A: Mm hmm.
[00:13:09] Speaker B: Whatever. You got it. When you got it done, that shit was working, right. You got that sense of accomplishment.
[00:13:13] Speaker A: Right?
[00:13:14] Speaker B: So I had a problem in my. At my. In my tub. It was stopping up. Okay, so it's this stuff you buy. It look like crack.
I forgot the name. It come in, like a white and red thing. It. If you get a woof of it. You, you know, it's real strong. So you put it in the tub. It posted, unclog it. I used it before, but it wasn't working. So I couldn't. I figured, you know what I'm saying? What wrong with my toilet? I'm in my tub. So I went to YouTube university and it was like, well, you know, I had a snake. I got a snake snake. So they was like, well, you got a, you know, the thing, the little flip the plug, the toilet, you know, to stop it up or whatever. Not the tub.
[00:13:51] Speaker A: I got you.
[00:13:52] Speaker B: You can take that out and you supposed to snake through that. So I took that out and when I took it out, all the water.
[00:14:01] Speaker A: Rushed out back up into the tub.
[00:14:04] Speaker B: No, it went out of the tub. Cause water was still in the tub. So that thing was broken and it got stuck like in the plug in position. And I didn't know, so I undid it. The water went out. Now my water go flying in the tub. But I got that little sense of man shit, a plumber. So, you know. Nah, just delay some pipe.
But yeah, so I did that. Watched a whole lot of movies. I watched a lot of movies. I ain't really watched no shows this week. What you watch?
[00:14:31] Speaker A: Oh, I watched the remake of don't tell mom the babysitter's dead.
[00:14:35] Speaker B: The colored version.
[00:14:36] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:14:37] Speaker B: How was it?
[00:14:37] Speaker A: How cute.
I enjoyed it.
[00:14:41] Speaker B: That's a family movie.
Is it like PG 13?
[00:14:45] Speaker A: It's rated r. Oh, that ain't a family movie. But to me it wasn't nothing like, I guess cause the boy was smoking weed.
[00:14:52] Speaker B: But was it some f words in there?
[00:14:54] Speaker A: Some who f words I wouldn't remember because they so common to me.
[00:15:01] Speaker B: Ah, true indeed.
[00:15:03] Speaker A: So I can't remember, but I mean, I watched it with my kids and.
[00:15:08] Speaker B: I thought it enjoyed.
[00:15:09] Speaker A: They did a really good job.
[00:15:11] Speaker B: The old one wasn't. Wasn't a station. Didn't the lady drive a station wagon or something like that? And it was the little white girl, Christina Applegate. Okay, I vaguely remember that one right.
[00:15:22] Speaker A: On top of that rose. I mean, they did a really good job. That's a line from the movie.
They did a really good job of incorporating the old stuff and then putting a modern twist on it because of course that one was made back in the day. There wasn't like smartphones and social media and stuff like that. So they, you know, did a. Had to incorporate modern stuff, but they.
[00:15:43] Speaker B: Did good with it.
[00:15:44] Speaker A: Same thing with mean girls.
[00:15:46] Speaker B: I didn't see that either. Well, I've seen. But isn't the same principal in that. The lady, she's in Anna.
[00:15:52] Speaker A: He was a teacher. She was the teacher. The principal was Tim Meadows.
[00:15:57] Speaker B: Was Tim Meadows in this one? What is he now? Like a super. Oh, he a principal. How about the lady? She's still in it. Okay.
But that one was good, too.
[00:16:06] Speaker A: Yeah, they did a good job of incorporating modernist into.
[00:16:10] Speaker B: Was it the same storyline?
[00:16:11] Speaker A: Same storyline, yeah. Which is odd, I think, because the characters had the same names.
[00:16:17] Speaker B: Oh, so it basically was the same movie.
[00:16:19] Speaker A: Right. It was a. Turned it into a musical.
[00:16:22] Speaker B: Oh, that. Because you. I remember you made a post about people not liking purple.
[00:16:30] Speaker A: I had just got finished watching me and girls when I posted that.
I never forget. Y'all hated color purple.
[00:16:37] Speaker B: Yeah. I was like, well, I was gonna watch it until I saw it was a musical. I was like, I'm out. I'm out. What else you watched?
[00:16:46] Speaker A: So this has been. This has been made for a few months, but my fire stick kept pushing it to the forefront. The downfall of Diddy.
[00:16:59] Speaker B: Oh, the tubi one.
[00:17:00] Speaker A: The tubi one. Like, it's been. It's old. They made this, like, months ago, and it's been on tubi, but they kept pushing it, pushing it, pushing it to the forefront. I'm like, let me watch it. It wasn't nothing new. Nothing that we already didn't know.
[00:17:14] Speaker B: Is it kind of like one of those things where it's just like a random voice talking about it and it's just clips and scenes and they just bringing up stuff? Or is it like interviewing people?
[00:17:23] Speaker A: It's interviewing people, too. Cause Stevie J. Oh, bless his heart.
[00:17:27] Speaker B: Why would he be in that?
[00:17:28] Speaker A: Bless his dumb little heart.
[00:17:30] Speaker B: They got him to be in it. Like Mark Summers in the other one.
Cause Mark, you know, Mark Summers was in.
[00:17:37] Speaker A: Who's Mark Summers?
[00:17:38] Speaker B: The guy from double there from Nickelodeon.
[00:17:41] Speaker A: Oh, oh, oh, okay.
[00:17:42] Speaker B: And he was in the Nickelodeon one. And he didn't know that. He thought it was just gonna be talking about his times in Nickelodeon.
[00:17:48] Speaker A: No, Stevie J.
[00:17:50] Speaker B: Knew that it was negative towards diddy. Was he defending.
[00:17:53] Speaker A: Yeah, he was defending tooth and nail.
[00:17:57] Speaker B: Mmm. Interesting.
[00:17:58] Speaker A: The Miss Pat show is back.
[00:18:00] Speaker B: Mmm. I'm. I think I'm. You don't like, listen, so season four. No, I watched the first one, but because it was on bet plus.
[00:18:10] Speaker A: Oh.
[00:18:11] Speaker B: And I was watching the app. I was using that little app. Sometimes I could. It's. I like to watch stuff, like when I'm cooking or washing dishes or whatever.
[00:18:18] Speaker A: You have to keep. You can't refrain. Can't just let it go, let it play.
[00:18:21] Speaker B: Yeah. So.
[00:18:24] Speaker A: It got deep this season.
[00:18:26] Speaker B: Like, you already offended.
[00:18:28] Speaker A: Yeah, we sat down and watched that in one day as a family. We popped popcorn.
[00:18:32] Speaker B: So that's the fourth season, right? Yeah, I gotta catch up. I'm only on the second. Dang. So it got deep.
Didn't it get deep in the first season, too?
[00:18:43] Speaker A: I guess it kind of does. Every season.
[00:18:45] Speaker B: They have a little something that's sitcom 101, though. You gotta have that season when somebody gets shot or somebody wanna try drugs for the first time. And they so excited.
[00:18:55] Speaker A: This one was along the lines of, like, relationships, parent, parent, child relationships. And it was eye opening for both me and t because we have our little moments.
[00:19:10] Speaker B: Bad moments.
[00:19:11] Speaker A: Yeah.
So he.
[00:19:13] Speaker B: At that age, though, he is.
[00:19:15] Speaker A: So it was good for us to do that. And I think, you know, we decided that we were going to talk more.
[00:19:22] Speaker B: Good. Shout out to Miss Pat and bet. Plus for these warm family moments.
[00:19:29] Speaker A: So what's all the movies you was watching?
[00:19:31] Speaker B: Well, I'll say. Well, I'll say the movies, and then I'll get to the show that I did watch. Cause I think you watched the same show. I watched, doom part two.
Did you watch the first doom? You ain't in the Sci-Fi movies.
[00:19:43] Speaker A: I have no idea what Doom is.
[00:19:44] Speaker B: Doon.
Yeah, it's a. It was like a book or something back in the day, and they made it into some movies, but then they made another one during the pandemic, and it came out.
I would have never watched the first one if it didn't come out on HBO, Max. So I watched it look good and all of that. A very cinematic, great acting and all of that. I watched both movies, and I don't know what's going on.
It looked good. There's some shooting and fighting and monsters. Well, it's a different world or whatever, you know, and something happened. There's some triumph in there, but I don't know what's going on. It looks amazing, though. Okay, so I watched part two of that.
It's an action movie called upgrade that I watched.
[00:20:30] Speaker A: I saw them promoting that.
[00:20:32] Speaker B: It was surprisingly good. It came out in, like, 2018, but nobody talked about it.
[00:20:38] Speaker A: I saw one, he lost his ability to walk or something like that.
[00:20:41] Speaker B: Mm hmm.
They give him the. Well, they showed it. They give him the ability to walk. And it's a little twist and turns in there, but it was good all the way through the little action movie, whatever. I only recognized one of the actresses in it, but it was good. I watched me time with Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg. I think that was Mark Wahlberg.
[00:21:02] Speaker A: It was like something like, I may have watched that.
[00:21:05] Speaker B: He was like a stay at home dad and, um. Regina King.
Regina King or Hall? Which one is hall? Hall is, um, boondocks, ain't it?
[00:21:17] Speaker A: That's king.
[00:21:18] Speaker B: That's king.
[00:21:19] Speaker A: That's brenda.
[00:21:20] Speaker B: Okay. Regina hall, then. Yeah, Regina hall. That's the one that was in scary movie and all of that. And paid in full. She was in it. Um. It was good. It was good little movie, you know, Kevin Hart, how he be like.
What's the word? I'm thinking not overreacting to stuff, but he, like, always in some kind of a pickle, and he got, you know, oh, God. And all that kind of stuff. It was that little stuff. It was funny.
And Mark Wahlberg was, like, his friend who needed to get a. Needed to grow up, basically. But it was a good little storyline.
[00:22:00] Speaker A: I have seen that.
[00:22:01] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
And that came out, like, last year or something like that, too. But I watched that. Cause I ain't had nothing else to watch. It's a new movie with Jennifer Lopez called Atlas. It's another Sci-Fi type movie.
Horrible, you know? So when you mentioned about don't tell mom the babysitter's dead, how, like, you know, they had to upgrade for technology, whatever, and integrate that. This is like a futuristic movie, but it's so futuristic until the stuff just don't seem real. You ever watched Black Mirror?
[00:22:35] Speaker A: I saw one episode.
[00:22:36] Speaker B: You probably watched the episode with video games. So, like, that thing with the video game on Black Mirror, right.
It seemed it's technology that we don't have now, but it ain't too far fetched. Like, you can kind of see how down the line we might get there with this shit. It's so far fetched until, like, what's them little shit?
[00:22:58] Speaker A: Them quest meta things? We almost there.
[00:23:02] Speaker B: You gotta see this movie, though. Well, you gotta see this movie. But anyway, it was that. It was bad. I don't recommend that.
I'm starting this movie called Pain Hustlers. I got to see how that is.
I watched the shy.
[00:23:15] Speaker A: I did.
[00:23:16] Speaker B: Yeah, I did watch the shy.
Is that Jabari with brays?
Cause that girl look. And she act just like him, too. She act like a whole nigga.
[00:23:28] Speaker A: That's what happens when the kids have the same mama and daddy.
[00:23:31] Speaker B: You right. And grew up in the same house.
But they probably twins, though, isn't it? No, they're not twins. Okay? This whole thing with Gemma.
How progressive do you have to be for the shit that she's got going on? Going?
[00:23:53] Speaker A: Her dad is extremely progressive. Like, her whole life, he has been extremely progressive. Like, every.
The whole character is like, why is she getting to do this? Like, what parent?
[00:24:08] Speaker B: Yeah, what was I gonna ask her mother? What happened to her mother?
[00:24:15] Speaker A: She.
[00:24:16] Speaker B: She passed.
[00:24:17] Speaker A: I think she passed. Yeah.
[00:24:18] Speaker B: We should know this.
[00:24:19] Speaker A: We should.
[00:24:19] Speaker B: We're six seasons in. We should know. We should have a definitive answer about what happened to her mama, but we don't.
What else in that? Jake being damn near molested by the preacher's wife.
[00:24:33] Speaker A: 18.
[00:24:33] Speaker B: I know.
Barely.
He's barely 18.
It just seemed weird. Cause we seen them since they was, like, 14.
And this grown woman. I mean, she grown. She's a whole woman. Came onto him at church. He recognized it. You know how strong. You know how strong it is? A woman has to come on for a man. For a man to know. Cause most men are aloof. They either aloof or they think. Everybody trying to holler at him, and they know in between. And he knew it right then and there at the church.
This other pastor, he's.
He got something going on his mama don't like. It's just a whole lot on that show. It's getting a little more interesting, though. But, um. Yeah, I watched that, and I did watch, finally. Is that the last episode of Carmichael Gerard Carmen.
[00:25:19] Speaker A: Yeah, that was.
[00:25:20] Speaker B: Yeah, the one with his mama. He made his mama look so bad.
[00:25:28] Speaker A: There cannot be that much animosity between him and his parents, because he had a whole show, a whole sitcom dedicated to, like, they used the same names.
[00:25:42] Speaker B: They did?
[00:25:42] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:25:43] Speaker B: Wow.
[00:25:45] Speaker A: Joe and Cynthia. Those were the names on the tv show on NBC.
[00:25:49] Speaker B: But you know what? That was before he came out. So maybe he got that after he came out.
Maybe that's why.
[00:25:57] Speaker A: And I was watching another because I went to look today to see if it was another episode, just to make sure, and it wasn't. But I searched his name, and there was another special that he did where he was talking to, like, black women in his life.
[00:26:12] Speaker B: Uh huh.
[00:26:13] Speaker A: And one of the questions he asked them, they was, like, sitting around drinking wine, and he's like, if I was to bring a white woman home, and one of the girls, like, choke.
He was like, what? She was like, oh, I had to sneeze. He's like, okay, so if I was to bring a white woman home.
Oh. So it's like, I kind of think his parents would have taken it better if he didn't lie his whole life.
[00:26:42] Speaker B: I wonder if.
[00:26:45] Speaker A: Which means they should have had a better communication, which a lot of black families don't. Don't have it.
Because if he would have came out when he was a teenager, when he wanted to.
[00:26:55] Speaker B: Oh, he did say he wanted to come out when he was a teenager.
[00:26:57] Speaker A: I mean, he said he knew he was gay a long time.
[00:27:00] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:27:00] Speaker A: So if he would have came out then instead of his family, probably feel like, oh, you played in our face. You was gay all this time.
[00:27:09] Speaker B: But his mama was like, you can pray the gay way, basically. Now, though, she like, you know, I.
[00:27:14] Speaker A: Mean, black people gonna do that, though.
[00:27:16] Speaker B: Religious people.
[00:27:18] Speaker A: Yeah, that's. Yeah.
[00:27:19] Speaker B: Cause the white people, they got. They made shock therapy.
They'll try to shock the gay out you.
It's just like the thing that, like, I don't think he. I guess he on the Internet and stuff, but you gotta know, like, it's gonna be people that don't care that that's your mama and gonna call her any kind of work, you know what I'm saying? Talk bad. So bad about her or whatever, just because those. Her views, if people don't agree her views or whatever.
[00:27:47] Speaker A: I feel bad for him.
The disdain he want us to have for his parents, I don't have. I feel bad for him.
[00:27:54] Speaker B: But here's the thing, though. Did you watch through the credits?
[00:27:58] Speaker A: Mm mm.
[00:27:59] Speaker B: So I just happened to watch through the credits, and it showed.
What's his boyfriend name?
[00:28:04] Speaker A: Mike.
[00:28:05] Speaker B: Mike. It showed him playing the game, showing his daddy.
[00:28:08] Speaker A: Yeah, I did see that.
[00:28:09] Speaker B: It showed him and his dad, like.
[00:28:10] Speaker A: They all getting along. He was washing dishes together, watching dishes.
[00:28:12] Speaker B: And they talking, and she didn't have them looks on her face, like, so it's that footage. Why not put that footage throughout the whole thing? Instead of her visceral reaction to my boyfriend this, my boyfriend that, or the girl, and you could pick up on the mom. She was like, you know, she was talking to his friend, and she was like, you know, his boyfriend. She was like, yeah, his friend. And then she pointed out, like, you not gonna call her his boyfriend or whatever, like that kind of stuff. You ain't had to put that in there. And even the dude in the mask or whoever that is.
[00:28:40] Speaker A: Oh, that terrible motherfucker. I don't know who that is, but that is not his friend.
[00:28:46] Speaker B: Why you say that?
[00:28:46] Speaker A: Cause every time, like, he was just when they were sitting in the theater watching the footage, he was like, oh, I'm so angry. Oh, how could she sit there and say these terrible things but didn't he.
[00:28:58] Speaker B: Say one time, like, didn't he say something like, do you hate your mom?
[00:29:03] Speaker A: Probably did.
[00:29:04] Speaker B: Then he asked him to. He asked him something.
[00:29:06] Speaker A: He probably want him to hate his mom.
[00:29:07] Speaker B: Mmm.
So, yeah, to what you said, go. Kind of like, to my point about people not really knowing your parents or caring, that they gonna say whatever to the parent about the parent or whatever. But, yeah, I watched that. And then the last thing I watched was at Abbott elementary, that show.
I wanna say they played in our face, but that was the biggest.
I ain't used this in a while. Cause the other week, we talked about that one person who said that, what they call it, the slow drag or whatever.
[00:29:43] Speaker A: Mm hmm.
[00:29:45] Speaker B: But this week, they basically told us.
[00:29:48] Speaker A: Girl, shut the fuck up. I ain't gotta explain shit to you.
[00:29:52] Speaker B: Um.
[00:29:53] Speaker A: It played out well.
[00:29:55] Speaker B: Very well.
[00:29:56] Speaker A: And. Oh, Janine's party. Janine's so smart and funny. Cause she. The way she planned that party.
[00:30:01] Speaker B: Yeah, that party was there. That party was good. She was like, I need somebody to stay here. But you gotta know that these people not gonna be here a long time. And stay, like, you ain't gonna stay in the domino station the whole time. And you not gonna just stay here watching movies. But she. In the beginning, she did have it played out, though. I liked it.
It was real interesting. She was like, three, two, one. What is one thing you picked up from that episode? This one random thing that you noticed?
[00:30:29] Speaker A: I don't know. I don't know what you was.
[00:30:30] Speaker B: What's the janitor's name?
[00:30:32] Speaker A: Mister Johnson.
[00:30:33] Speaker B: He's rich.
Remember when he said. When he put it, he was like, yeah, I had to park my g wagon in the red. Oh, yeah, in the red zone. I was like, hold on. He got bread. If he got a damn g wagon, this shit's like 250. But that was one little random thing. But he's funny. I love him on that show. Cause he was like, you gonna pay for the ticket? She was like, ha ha. You joking? And he just. With a straight ass face. I love that show.
[00:30:54] Speaker A: He got up and decided he wanted to be the bouncer.
[00:30:56] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. And he was taking dollar 20 from people. Yeah. So I did, like. I did watch that and enjoyed that. So that's the last episode for the season.
[00:31:06] Speaker A: It must be a. It was only. That would put the season at 14 episodes. And they typically do 20, so.
[00:31:12] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Okay. That's true.
[00:31:14] Speaker A: I don't know.
[00:31:15] Speaker B: I was gonna say, that's real smart for them. Cause, like, most schools are ending right now, and that would have been great for them to end right then, like, great timing or whatever, but.
[00:31:23] Speaker A: So maybe we only got getting 14.
[00:31:25] Speaker B: Maybe like a little couple week break and then come back with the last or something. But that would be great, though.
So we did get some emails.
Got quite a few. So we'll try to.
[00:31:37] Speaker A: Jesus. Thank y'all.
[00:31:39] Speaker B: Yeah, we'll try to get read a few of these.

Oh, lord. I was prepared, y'all. I'm telling you. Shout out to the homie, Philly. He sent, um, a couple emails and he's catching up. Like we said last week, it's the episode that says, so you doing the bending? He says, yo, bull, your Amy. Another term I've heard used for someone going to jail is going to school away from college.
Yeah. Cause when I say we going up the road, that's one we use. $4.04 months for $6 is insane. That's a good deal.
[00:32:34] Speaker A: What?
[00:32:35] Speaker B: That's $1.25. He said four muffins for $6 is insane. When are we talking about some muffins?
[00:32:40] Speaker A: I don't remember.
[00:32:41] Speaker B: I feel like that's a good deal.
Amy was a whole puma out here. 40, letting a 25 year old scrape. Lol.
We talked about that. Wonder where Jackie is nowadays. Oh, yeah. And is her ass still fat? I believe her ass is still fat. Shout out to Jackie. Jackie was my neighbor that came on to me much like the preacher's wife came on to Jake. Jonte Porter. Congratulations. You played yourself. Kelly. Voice, you were in the league. Oh, yeah.

A funky, dog headed bitch was funny as shit. It was. I felt bad for Gail.
You don't care for Gail too much, do you?
She's neither here nor there.
[00:33:31] Speaker A: Yeah.
Don't feel no ways about her.
[00:33:34] Speaker B: Gayle, you were wrong. We were all rooting for Don. No offense to Caitlyn Clark, but we were rooting for everybody. Black. In this case, Coach Staley and the Lady Gamecocks. Only one more April episode to listen to. Lol. Philly. Shout out to you, Philly, for catching up. And emailing, too. This one. This is the next one from Philly. It's the toilet talk episode. Say, yo, bull, your Amy. Yeah. Nah. Amy was dead wrong for not giving her children's father some form of payment after moving her from Georgia to Carolina. No way I would have been going for that ass of cash. Amy, how you paying is what I would have told her. Lol.
Damn, Amy. Way to ruin the BMF episode for be easy. What did you ruin?
[00:34:17] Speaker A: Oh, I told you that Henry had slept with the cop.

And it's entitled walking pneumonia is real.
I did not know. I thought it was a black thing. Said, hey, DJ blade. Show question. If I answer this question, can I be the official scientist of the show? Yeah. Cause I thought you were a chemist, but you were a scientist. Yeah, we don't have an official scientist. We do have an official lawyer of the show, so you definitely can be the official scientist. She says she's a medical laboratory scientist. I'm the boss, though. Okay, boss, let me hold something. I think she just bought a Tesla too. So we're in the background running all the blood work and swabs that y'all go to the doctor for. Anyways. Walking pneumonia is real. It's pretty much very mild pneumonia that's common in kids. And I actually had it as a child. It's like a cold with those wet coughs that just won't clear up. But you feel well enough to walk around like normal. Since I'm here, I'll talk about what I'm watching. I'm sick of Janine and Gregory dangling this carrot in front of us.
She got the carrot this week, though. They need to be together and move on for real by the end of the season. Well, you got your wish, B. I have to agree with you on the shot this week. That unnecessary and long sex scene with Emmett and Keisha was uncomfortable.
It was.
[00:36:04] Speaker A: I'm tired of seeing them fucking.
[00:36:05] Speaker B: They fucked this week too.
[00:36:07] Speaker A: Like we them pet. We done seen them fuck all through season one and two. Like, I don't want to see them no more.
[00:36:14] Speaker B: And she just made him breakfast in bed. You gonna let them pancakes get cold? You can't. You ever warmed up pancakes? You gonna like. I don't waste food, as you can tell.
Also, there not enough girls in Chicago. Jake bet not mess with Papa X.
Oh, no, it ain't Jake they're gonna mess with Papa X. Amayce about to double back to Papa. I can't wait for Lynn Whitfield, evil ass, to take our Duda. Side note. Were you talking about Harry? Yes, I was talking about Harry Belafonte. When you couldn't think of the name. Well, that's what I was screaming at you. Yes, thank you. It was Harry Belafonte.
[00:36:50] Speaker A: Damn.
[00:36:51] Speaker B: And the only reason I knew about Harry Belafonte, it was Harry Belafonte. The name came back to me because somebody made a post about Harry Belafonte and Eartha Kidd. Now, Harry Belafonte supposed to be so pro black, this, that, and the third. And Harry and Eartha was messing around. Oh, and he said something to her about he really wanted a white woman.
[00:37:11] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:37:11] Speaker B: Yeah. So shout out to that post.

You not a scientist. You went to school for engineering. You're an engineer. So you were wrong. The scientist said it's a real thing. He said, it's definitely a black thing. But when I was in the 7th grade, the doctors told me I had it during football season and I missed a week of practice, so it is real. Okay, all right. What you mean it's a black? Easy. I still have pictures from that field trip to Riverbank zoo. Yeah, we went to Riverbank. So me and Jones, we classmates, and we went to Riverbank Zoo.

last week when we left, I mean, like, maybe while we were here, Diddy decided to go on live and apologize to Cassie.
Mm mm. No, he did. Well, he apologized.
[00:42:31] Speaker A: He couldn't say her name.
[00:42:32] Speaker B: That's what I was gonna say. That's what people were saying. Well, he didn't apologize to her. He didn't say her name. And some people were saying that he can't say her name. Is that in the document somewhere?
[00:42:41] Speaker A: That's what they say.
[00:42:42] Speaker B: Yeah, so now it makes sense.
People been sending me little stuff with, like, what's my man name with Parley. What? My man named that do the thing.
[00:42:52] Speaker A: Desi banks.
[00:42:52] Speaker B: Desi banks. He did something or whatever. They been sending that, but I ain't clicked on that. Y'all send me that shit. I'm sorry. I'm not watching that.
[00:42:59] Speaker A: I can't see it.
[00:43:00] Speaker B: Yeah, it was something. He was, like, doing a parody of that or whatever, but I don't wanna see that. I don't think that shit funny.
Yeah, so he apologized. A lot of people on his ass. I told y'all, that nigga need to go away, but he ain't going nowhere. And TMZ caught him in the street somewhere.
[00:43:19] Speaker A: Did he?
[00:43:20] Speaker B: Yeah, he was walking down the street.
[00:43:21] Speaker A: Oh, wow.
[00:43:22] Speaker B: Like, maybe, like two days later. Cause people was thinking he was in Bali. Cause of how it looked like he went really with Russell, but he wasn't he was just, he was. They say his house looked like, oh.
[00:43:32] Speaker A: I saw Lil Duvall post that. What, like the Russell and Diddy side by side and was like Diddy already in ballet with Russell.
[00:43:42] Speaker B: Oh yeah. So you know that happened this week. I mean it was big news. What, first two days. I mean, people still talking about that.
[00:43:52] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:43:54] Speaker B: Did you see Camron on CNN?
[00:43:56] Speaker A: I did.
[00:43:56] Speaker B: You saw that clip? What did you think about that clip?
[00:43:59] Speaker A: I had mixed feelings about it. I love what he did.
[00:44:02] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:44:02] Speaker A: I just wish, I think, and it's not his fault. It's not his fault, it's CNN's fault. I wish it wouldn't have been done to a black woman.
[00:44:10] Speaker B: That was the thing that.
[00:44:11] Speaker A: But if you think about it, why does CNN get a black woman to try to interview him? What, you think the good sis gonna get some information out of him? Cause Ken Fo. That's true.
[00:44:22] Speaker B: True indeed. So I've never seen you seen that woman before.
[00:44:25] Speaker A: I never seen her before, but now, well, people say that she be messy on CNN. Oh, so there was some people in the comments saying, oh, she deserved it. Cause for the other mess.
[00:44:34] Speaker B: Is that her show?
[00:44:36] Speaker A: You don't know me news. Come on now.
[00:44:39] Speaker B: He mistook something she said though. Cause she was like, do you recognize that? Did. And he was like, recognize what? You mean? I can't. You know what I'm saying? I didn't zoom in to see that could have been. They say it was him. It was him. Like he was real upset. I thought for 1 second though, like maybe they meant to get mace.
But I was listening to you wasn't upset.
Who, Cameron?
[00:45:02] Speaker A: Yeah, he was trolling and he did all of that on purpose. Like he had no intentions of answering any of those questions. When he sat down, he knew that they was going to ask him about Diddy. Cause of course they told him in advance he planned that whole thing.
[00:45:17] Speaker B: So that's the thing, right? He tried to make it look like he wasn't prepared. Like they didn't prepare him. Cause he was like, who the talent who booked this?
[00:45:25] Speaker A: Yeah, that was part of the act. He said that?
Yeah, he went on his show. Oh, and he came back and said, yeah. He was like, yeah, I did that on purpose because why are y'all using this black woman to ask me questions? And y'all only pull us on CNN just to ask questions about stuff like this. But y'all don't ask us positive stuff.
[00:45:43] Speaker B: I did see that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:45:46] Speaker A: So that's why I said I like what he did. I just hate that it had to happen to that black woman.
[00:45:51] Speaker B: See, even before I. Even before that, I was like, it was cool. Cause you know what I'm saying? He did it before with Bill Maher. I mean, not Bill Maher, Bill O'Reilly. And he kind of the four e with Anderson Cooper when they was talking about. No snitching.
He did that. So I just thought he would be more, like, more mature as far as, like. Cause he got his own platform. I didn't think it would be like that. But like you said. Cause he did tell black women he did it.
[00:46:20] Speaker A: Approval point.
[00:46:21] Speaker B: But I wonder you think it. How you think it made him look.
[00:46:25] Speaker A: I don't think he care.
[00:46:27] Speaker B: True. That's the same thing Rod said, too. Like, he don't care. Yeah, he one of them people who don't care. Yeah, he gonna say whatever. He don't really care about, quote unquote council culture and nothing like that. So that was some big stuff. Did you hear about this donation?
You know, you went to college and you're black.
This happened at FAMU. So some guy said he was like, his family had so much money, whatever, whatever. And they wanted to donate to HBCU. And they said they were gonna donate $237 million to fam you. But it turned out to be a hoax.
Yeah.
[00:47:04] Speaker A: Nobody didn't vet this nigga.
[00:47:06] Speaker B: And that's why this. I think it's the vice, not the dean, but it's a lady. She had to step down from her position. Cause like you said, nobody vetted this nigga.
I think some more people probably gonna lose their job. It happened, like, last.
[00:47:23] Speaker A: I know they didn't spend that money before they got it. I know they didn't spend that money before they got it.
[00:47:28] Speaker B: Now it happened so quick. What's the lady name? She was. Her name is Shantae Friday Stroud. She was the vice president for university advancement and executive director of that FAMU foundation. She had to resign as vice president.
It says her, along with, alongside six FAMU officials, decided to accept the guy's last name is Jeremy without informing other vital stakeholders of the school, including members of the board and trustees.
But she took accountability, so, no, somebody else took accountability. Who was that?
Who was Robinson? Oh, the president. He took accountability. Yeah.
Yeah. And this happened in the early parts of May, but, yeah, I saw it a couple weeks ago. I wondered what was gonna happen.
You heard about Nicki Minaj? How about, say, lil Nikki, did you watch the video? Is it videos or whatever?
[00:48:30] Speaker A: I watched a few seconds of it. And then I didn't care. I don't too much care for Nikki. And obviously other people didn't either. Cause, like, when it was happening, the stories. Cause I saw it on, like, three different blogs, and the story had been up for, like, 45 minutes, and it only had, like, five comments. And two of them was them people saying, inbox me right now. I got $5,000 for you. And I was like, why nobody ain't talking about this? And, well, that was on the Facebook side. So I went over to the.
[00:49:00] Speaker B: Stand up.
[00:49:00] Speaker A: Stand up.
I went over to the Instagram side, too, and then more people was talking about it there, saying that, you know, they postponed the show and all kind of stuff.
[00:49:18] Speaker B: I was wondering where she was. And then they said she was in the Netherlands, like, she was leaving Amsterdam. Like, I thought it was legal then.
[00:49:24] Speaker A: Very legal.
[00:49:25] Speaker B: But they say it's illegal. But it's legal for recreational use. That's what one article I read said. So I guess they accusing her of having pre rolls in her bag. Mmm. And you can't have it in your bag. Whatever. But she kind of making it seem like they've been trying to stop her tour. You know what I'm saying?
[00:49:44] Speaker A: Like, who was they, girl, who they.
[00:49:48] Speaker B: Them the same day that DJ Khaled was talking about.
[00:49:54] Speaker A: So. Hmm.
[00:49:56] Speaker B: But yes. So that's some news.
[00:49:57] Speaker A: Y'all gonna stop fucking around in them foreign countries?
[00:50:00] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:50:00] Speaker A: You can follow they rules.
[00:50:02] Speaker B: Yep.
The Marilyn Mosby thing, you been following along with. What's going on with that?
[00:50:10] Speaker A: Who is Marilyn Mosby?
[00:50:12] Speaker B: She was the, like, da. A prosecutor in.
[00:50:16] Speaker A: That's why I remember her face in Baltimore.
[00:50:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:50:19] Speaker A: Yes, yes.
[00:50:21] Speaker B: So ever since. You know what I'm saying, she was like, you know, got claimed to fame, became famous during the Freddie Gray trial.
[00:50:31] Speaker A: Freddie Gray. That's where. Okay. That's where I remember her from. Okay.
[00:50:35] Speaker B: Yeah. She was the former Baltimore City state's attorney. She was sentenced Thursday for perjury and mortgage fraud.
[00:50:41] Speaker A: God damn.
[00:50:42] Speaker B: Yeah. In two separate trials, she was found guilty of lying about a vacation home mortgage and Covid related hardship withdrawals from her retirement account.
They seized her. They asked to seize her Florida condo, which they said was purchased using a fraudulent mortgage loan.
But, yeah, they wanted to give her 40 years.
[00:51:08] Speaker A: Do we dare say this is a witch hunt?
[00:51:10] Speaker B: Yeah, because people were saying it was because of how hard she was going at, like, the police and some stuff. She said Donald Trump and stuff like that.
[00:51:18] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:51:19] Speaker B: So, yeah, but she, in fact, did. I wanna say she did, like, lie on a mortgage application or whatever.
[00:51:25] Speaker A: Damn.
[00:51:27] Speaker B: And so I think that was bad. And I think she, like, used some money for, like, campaign or whatever. Damn. But she got, like, three years of house arrest and 100 hours of community service.
[00:51:40] Speaker A: That's not bad.
[00:51:41] Speaker B: As opposed to 40 years. Hell, yeah. They asking.
They want Joe Biden to pardon her. Pardon her? Yeah. But I thought that was interesting. You know, some niggas in here that follow politics, you know what I'm saying? So I definitely wanted to mention that.
Let me tell y'all something. Warm tea with honey. Hot tea with honey. It gets your throat right, especially if you gotta talk. You on the phones and shit.
What else happened? You watch a lot of movies and stuff?
[00:52:10] Speaker A: Mm hmm.
[00:52:11] Speaker B: Have you seen. Did you watch super size me back in the day?
[00:52:18] Speaker A: I didn't. I didn't watch it back in the day because it wasn't gonna stop me from eating McDonald's.
[00:52:22] Speaker B: Oh, no.
You remember that documentary? What the hell? Yeah, I was watching that, eating chicken, like, okay, y'all, we need to stop eating meat or whatever. What else was in that? Talking about cows and the farts. I went and got a burger, but, yeah, so the guy that came out with it, Morgan Spurlock, he died of cancer. And I forgot that he did another one right after that.
I forgot what it was called. But he did, like, a supersize me too, or whatever. But, you know, during the me too movement, he had to come out himself and be like, you know, I got some things in my past, and it came out, and he, like, had some. A few charges.
Yeah.
[00:53:07] Speaker A: So who ain't nasty? Everybody a nasty nigger.
[00:53:11] Speaker B: Well, nasty or.
Cause everybody nasty.
Illegally nasty.
Let's see.
[00:53:25] Speaker A: Oh, even my boy was like. Cause we was watching our Apollo reruns.
[00:53:30] Speaker B: Uh huh.
[00:53:30] Speaker A: And you seen the clip I posted?
[00:53:32] Speaker B: I did see the clip. I got another clip too, I'll tell you about. But go ahead, Steve.
[00:53:37] Speaker A: Looking at the little girl. It was a curvaceous woman. Come to find out she was a teenager in high school.
[00:53:44] Speaker B: Yeah. Cause she was. Cause she said that he was like, what you do? Or whatever. He's like, I'm in school. He was at school.
[00:53:50] Speaker A: Yeah, high school.
And then he looked out in the crowd and looked at her body, looked at her hips.
[00:53:57] Speaker B: You didn't catch. You didn't catch the. I don't think you must be. Didn't catch it. All right, so do you remember what song she said she sung?
[00:54:05] Speaker A: Mm. Oh, you put a boob on my heart. Yeah, at the end.
[00:54:08] Speaker B: Did you hear what he said?
[00:54:09] Speaker A: Yeah, he was like, you sure did.
[00:54:11] Speaker B: Steve Wild.
[00:54:13] Speaker A: My boy was like, damn, you can get away with anything in the nineties.
[00:54:16] Speaker B: You could. You wanna know what else he got away with?
[00:54:19] Speaker A: What?
[00:54:21] Speaker B: I can't remember what it was. If it was like a soul trainer wars or something.
Tierra Marie had performed.
And he came back, he came out, you know. You know, the host come out and he came. He was like, 16, y'all. 16.
[00:54:38] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:54:39] Speaker B: 16. I was like, damn, bro, you wildin'goddamn. I. Chill out.
I mean, Tiarra Marie did not look 16.
She didn't look 16 back then.
And I could say that. Cause I was close to her age.
[00:54:56] Speaker A: I'm gonna find that clip and post it.
[00:54:57] Speaker B: Yeah, please do. God, Lee, please do. You might be the spark to get people to talk about Steve Harvey.
[00:55:05] Speaker A: My boy asked me, he's like, you don't like Steve, huh?
[00:55:08] Speaker B: You don't like Steve?
[00:55:09] Speaker A: After I told him, I posted it, when he saw me recording and posting it, he was like, you don't like Steve Harvey, do you?
[00:55:15] Speaker B: Cause you know, you gotta put him in some shit.
Please find out. Please find. It's Tiara Marie. It could have been like the BET Soul Awards or something like that.
But it was 16 regular BET awards.
[00:55:30] Speaker A: He hosted a few.
[00:55:31] Speaker B: It could have been the regular BET awards. Did you know she had make a girl feel good? Why did they have her singing that song?
[00:55:36] Speaker A: That was Rockefeller.
[00:55:38] Speaker B: It was Rockefeller.
Yeah. Yeah. Damn, I got a hat on, too. And a shirt. Goddamn.
You know what you said last week about it? It might be something in the down. It might be.
We never know. Well, we might know. If anything had happened, though, I think she would have came out with it.
[00:56:01] Speaker A: She ain't never been quiet.
[00:56:04] Speaker B: Yeah. Cause she did say something about she didn't wanna sing. It was some song about.
She was singing about her daddy or something. And she ain't wanted to sing that song. And they wanted to sing it.
[00:56:13] Speaker A: Oh, my daddy. Oh, what was that song? Somebody yelling it at the screen right now.
I know a song. I mean, I remember this.
[00:56:22] Speaker B: Yeah. But anyway, shout out to Tia Marie and Steve Harvey. I hope you find that clip, too.
[00:56:28] Speaker A: I'm gonna find it.
[00:56:29] Speaker B: I hope you find that clip and post it. And I mention that to people and nobody, like, every time I mention it to somebody, they don't remember that.
But I distinctly remember that. Cause I liked that song.
And I remember her performing. I was like, okay, she bout to be the next one. Cause I remember it was her and Rihanna at the same time. And I was like, I wonder which one of them gonna go? And I was like, okay, she might be about the one to go. And then Steve Harvey did. I was like, hold up. That's kind of wild. Like, you say that in the barbershop or something.
[00:56:59] Speaker A: But I wonder why she didn't. Her career didn't take off like that.
[00:57:03] Speaker B: It was. It had something to do with. It had something to do with her not doing what they wanted her to do. Like, I think they wanted her to be more sensual, sexual type, and she didn't feel comfortable. And, you know, Rihanna got the pops. The pop shit.
Cause I wanna say tiara could sing and all of that.
[00:57:24] Speaker A: She can really sing.
[00:57:25] Speaker B: Yeah, Rihanna really couldn't sing like that.
I mean, she could a little. I ain't saying she can't sing, but she sing better than me.
Let's see what else happened this week.
Oh, some new laws coming down over time.
Some new overtime laws.
I know Obama had did some stuff before about overtime, like, you know, trying to compensate people that did work the 40 hours and didn't. Matter of fact, it was a lawsuit. Like a class action lawsuit. Like if you work for companies or whatever and they didn't pay you overtime. You know what I'm saying?
[00:58:08] Speaker A: I was with ADP when the first one rolled out, and it was like, if you were at. If you were salary and you were at a certain number, they had to start paying you overtime. But if you were over that number, then you could just stay salary.
[00:58:24] Speaker B: Oh, that was at the job or that was the law.
[00:58:26] Speaker A: That was the law.
[00:58:26] Speaker B: Okay. And that's kind of what this law is now.
[00:58:29] Speaker A: I think they lowered it now so that more people could get. That. Have access to that overtime.
[00:58:36] Speaker B: No, they raised it. So after July 1, everybody making. Cause it used to be $38,000. If you were salary and you made $38,000, then you couldn't get it. If you made over 30, 38,000, but now it's 43,888. So if you make that amount of money or less, that's not good.
[00:59:01] Speaker A: What, they made it less access to people to get overtime?
[00:59:05] Speaker B: No, they made it more access. So if you made for.
If you make up to 40 something thousand dollars in your salary, you still get overtime. But if you make more than that, you don't get overtime, right?
We mean, they made access to less people. They made access to more people.
[00:59:27] Speaker A: They lowered it down to 38? Is that what you're saying?
[00:59:30] Speaker B: No, hold up.
[00:59:33] Speaker A: Cause if they raised it, then that means unless they're raising salaries along with it, which they not.
[00:59:40] Speaker B: Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. I think. But it should be, I think.
Let me read the article.
[00:59:47] Speaker A: And I thought it was 46 the first time.
[00:59:53] Speaker B: Get this shit right.
[00:59:54] Speaker A: I know. I wasn't getting no fucking overtime at ADP, whatever the threshold was.
[01:00:00] Speaker B: Where's that article?
Y'all stick with us while we get this shit right.
I guess it would be less people.
Where the shit at? Project 25.
Oh, here it is. You found it.
Um, uh, it says salary. Workers are those who are paid a fixed amount above $35,000 are exempt from fair let from the overtime regulations.
I guess it would make it less people.
Hmm.
[01:00:56] Speaker A: And they gonna start working the fuck out of them too.
[01:00:58] Speaker B: Well, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up.
Oh, no, no, no. It is more people will be able to get it. Cause if you make more than that, then you don't fall in the overtime regulations. So everybody up to 43,000. Well, right now is 43 888. If you make. Starting July 31, everybody up to that will still get overtime.
[01:01:25] Speaker A: Okay.
[01:01:27] Speaker B: That would be. Yeah. And then on January 1, it goes up to $58,000.
[01:01:34] Speaker A: Always going up to 58. Okay, that's. That's the number. No, that's the number that I was looking for.
[01:01:40] Speaker B: Yeah. So. But then, um, um, then it's gonna go up again July 2027.
And then every three years after that. So it's gonna.
[01:01:51] Speaker A: Doing all this and not raising minimum wage is wild.
That is nasty work.
[01:01:57] Speaker B: I guess you gotta take what you can get. Cause the other side don't wanna raise minimum wage. I guess this a way to, you know, help some of the economy, but it ain't raising minimum wage ain't gonna do nothing. They need to regulate some of this greed these companies doing. Cause they. A lot of people talk about inflation this, inflation that, but it ain't really. It really ain't inflation when the company's making record profits.
It ain't inflation. It's them being greedy. But yeah, so if y'all salary people and you work and you weren't getting overtime, they about to change some law so you can get overtime. If you don't make a certain threshold. $35,000 ain't really a lot of you, but you know, it'll help somebody. Another work related news. You ever work for a company that had to do no compete clause? Like if you quit, you have. Well, they getting away with that. Getting rid of that shit. The FTC, they saying it's not fair. I know Blaze, when he was working for a radio station, he was trying to go to another radio station and they had, like, a six month non compete clause or whatever. That was kind of the first time I really paid attention to it. But they saying it's not fair to the workers, that they can't stay in the same industry if they quit or get fired or whatever. So they're doing away with that. So shout out to them, what else we got this week? We got too much.
[01:03:27] Speaker A: They don't enforce them much.
[01:03:28] Speaker B: Huh. Oh. Then maybe they're doing, like, industries.
[01:03:34] Speaker A: Like, I wonder who, like, who would be in charge of enforcing that? Because when I left a company and went right into another one, like, two.
[01:03:43] Speaker B: Months later, and they had that clause, maybe. Did they know you went?
[01:03:47] Speaker A: No, why would I tell them that?
[01:03:48] Speaker B: That's what I'm saying.
[01:03:49] Speaker A: Like, yeah, I would say, who enforces it?
[01:03:51] Speaker B: Because this, I mean, like, if you, like, in the spotlight, they'll know for sure. Like, if you work for a radio station, tv station, they'll know.
[01:04:00] Speaker A: Yeah, but, like, normal companies have stuff like that.
Like, Verizon has stuff like that.
[01:04:05] Speaker B: Like, you can't go from Verizon to at and t, right?
Hmm. How would they know? Maybe they'll be checking up on you. Is there a way to check on regular jobs, like, where people working at right now?
[01:04:19] Speaker A: Was it the work number?
[01:04:21] Speaker B: The work number?
They'll have to call the work number.
[01:04:26] Speaker A: But I think even with that, you would still need that company's code when you call the work number. I don't, yeah. I don't. Maybe I don't think I ever made enough money or been that important for them, for them to enforce it. Yeah. They're probably like a sea level stuff, like, you know, like you say in the spotlight, like if I was, if I was CEO.
[01:04:48] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:04:49] Speaker A: And Verizon, I can't jump ship and go to T Mobile, you know, have.
[01:04:52] Speaker B: Too many trade secrets and shit. But they're getting away with getting, getting rid of that shit, so. Oh, another. I saw you put this in here, too, about the shock of con and Diddy and Shaka Khan daughter.
Did that make news on social media?
[01:05:10] Speaker A: It made like a rock, a pebble in the pond. Nothing, nothing big.
[01:05:17] Speaker B: Yeah, I didn't know.
[01:05:18] Speaker A: People was just like, ooh, that's it.
[01:05:20] Speaker B: Yeah. I ain't saw too many, too much talking, talking about it.
Let me see what else happened before we get out of here.
Oh, shit. That's it. Really? Man, it's been an uneventful week, I guess everybody talking about Diddy and shit. It's the holiday weekend, too. About to get ready. What you doing for the holiday? You cooking out? Do you cook out on Memorial weekend?
[01:05:43] Speaker A: Celebrate them? No. I was about to say I would celebrate them white holidays, but I'm about to put my Christmas tree up for Christmas in July. But anyway. No, no, nothing big on mine.
[01:05:55] Speaker B: Didn't Memorial Day start with black people?
[01:05:58] Speaker A: That's what I say.
[01:06:00] Speaker B: They took over everything. Y'all niggas. That's what y'all get for not what they call it.
[01:06:07] Speaker A: Trademarking.
[01:06:08] Speaker B: Not trademarking. Gatekeeping. Gatekeep. They ain't gonna take your shit.
[01:06:17] Speaker A: All right, so we gonna start here. So do you get a lot of packages?
So, the United States Postal Service wants you to use your big box. They want us to have big mailboxes so that, you know, people can put their big packages in them.
No, but in all seriousness, no, they being lazy.
I looked at it as laziness. I don't work in the industry, so I'm trying to watch what I say. But they want us to have to get bigger mailboxes so that they can put bigger pieces of mail in it instead of leaving them at your door.
[01:06:58] Speaker B: That's the reason, too. Cause in the article, it says something about, you know, theft and all of that, which is kind of. But it's like, I ain't gonna call it lazy. Cause they got a lot of stops and they trucks and stuff really not made for getting in and out, so it's harder for them to get out. And if everybody has my mailman drive a BMW minivan.
But, I mean, that ain't an.
[01:07:26] Speaker A: I know, I know. I'm just saying.
[01:07:28] Speaker B: But even his minivan ain't made for him to get. It really is his steering wheel on the wrong side? Yeah, it is his minivan that made for him to get out.
Get out and deliver them packages, though, like your ups truck or whatever that shit made for you. Up and down, out and all of that. But I think it'll save them time, the way they can just put it in the box and go, I think that's part of.
[01:07:55] Speaker A: My mailbox is only four years old, so. Sorry.
[01:07:58] Speaker B: How much did you pay for?
[01:08:00] Speaker A: You remember, like, dollar 2030 off Amazon?
[01:08:04] Speaker B: Yeah. And in the article, they said the mailboxes, the big mailboxes average around $66. And they listed Walmart, Amazon, Lowell's, Home Depot. They really want you to get that.
[01:08:13] Speaker A: It's not gonna be flattering for me. Like, what a big one? It's not gonna look good depending on.
[01:08:19] Speaker B: Which one you get.
I don't know.
[01:08:21] Speaker A: I don't think it's gonna look good in front of my house. Maybe like a rural house.
Like, if I lived in the country, I could have a big ass mailbox for a tractor to come knock that motherfucker down.
You ain't grew up in the country. If a tractor ain't, never knock your motherfucking mailbox down.
Like, you know, my dad shit. Used to piss my daddy off.
[01:08:40] Speaker B: Yeah, knock it out, tractor.
[01:08:41] Speaker A: Just come and knock that motherfucker down and keep going.
[01:08:43] Speaker B: What? The tractor is often the one that cut the.
[01:08:47] Speaker A: No, just a tractor driving down the road, like, shot one of them tractors. Not the road, just like. Oh, my bad. My bad, Tom.
Keep going.
[01:09:01] Speaker B: So it'll knock it off, the thing. It'll knock the whole pole down and everything.
[01:09:04] Speaker A: Yeah, just knock it off. Oh, he had a pole cemented in the ground.
[01:09:08] Speaker B: Oh, it'll. Okay. All right, my bad.
[01:09:12] Speaker A: Okay. Did you catch northwest in the Lion King?
[01:09:16] Speaker B: Somebody played a clip for me. What you think I ain't sound like a kid singing. Somebody said she sounded horrible, though.
[01:09:23] Speaker A: Horrible? That little girl. I'm sorry. That little girl got that role because of who her parents are. They could have gave that role to a talented little girl.
I would have rather seen Ti and tiny daughter.
[01:09:35] Speaker B: That's what the person said. Like, she can sound. She sang better. I wonder, is she a good actress, though?
[01:09:41] Speaker A: No, she's not. You got to look at the clip. Don't just play it, look at her.
[01:09:45] Speaker B: Oh, I just heard it.
[01:09:46] Speaker A: Oh, no, no. Get that baby off that stage.
[01:09:49] Speaker B: Hey. Well, shout out to nepotism.

[01:10:00] Speaker B: Yeah, they armenian. They ain't. Yeah, they white. Anyway.
[01:10:04] Speaker A: Speaking of parents, Shawn Kingston and his mama got arrested for fraud.
[01:10:11] Speaker B: Yup.
They said that they been arrested before for fraud. So she did a year and a half in jail for fraud.
[01:10:18] Speaker A: Damn.
[01:10:18] Speaker B: Yeah, she a scammer. Scammer. Say they bought a 200 something foot entertainment center, damn, Florida. And only paid $30,000 for it. I wondered how. Cause he, you know, he put out that one song. How many? Maybe two or three good songs that he had out that people cared about. But he always had money. He always got all this and that. This nigga been scamming the whole time.
[01:10:42] Speaker A: And they keep referring to him as a rapper in these articles, and it's just pissing me off.
[01:10:47] Speaker B: I hate it. He's a singer, right?

I don't care, man. We couldn't have planned that no better.
And, you know, they cleaned up that version. Cause he be, like, suicidal. Suicidal? Yeah, I forgot what they said.
So excited. Or something like that.
[01:11:16] Speaker A: Wow.
[01:11:17] Speaker B: But he. Yeah, they cleaned it up.
[01:11:22] Speaker A: Carlton Banks. Oh, I'm sorry. Alfonso Ribeiro said that his role as Carlton on the fresh prince ruined his career. Said that he's typecast and nobody sees past the Carlton dance and him being that type of character. And it's hard for him to get roles or move past that.
[01:11:46] Speaker B: You know what, though? A lot of those shows like that from back in them days, a lot of them characters don't really move on.
Like, Hillary didn't really do too much after that. That I remember.
Ashley didn't. What was she on?
[01:12:02] Speaker A: Ashley do a lot of movies now. Yeah. Yeah, you're right. Now.
Well, shit. That mean we're the only one. Yeah, we're the only one that moved on.

[01:12:55] Speaker B: He did? Yeah, he did.
[01:12:57] Speaker A: So he can't say that.
[01:12:59] Speaker B: Yeah, maybe it was some other stuff that he wanted to do outside of black.
[01:13:03] Speaker A: Yeah, that's on you, bro.
[01:13:04] Speaker B: You ever seen that clip of him on stage talking about white women? Mahomet, he love white women.

[01:13:34] Speaker B: The role didn't typecast him. I think that was him. Like, he kind of. Kind of. No disrespect, but he kind of cornered like that. You know what I'm saying? He don't got no edge.
[01:13:44] Speaker A: And if that's the case, be the.

[01:16:17] Speaker B: I did fraud, I did a fraud today I did fraud today okay. I did a good job today hey, blessings come from God cause I'm committing fraud I did fraud today I did a good job today so, yeah, like I said, it's an asian man. This takes us all the way to China. It's a chinese man. He's jailed for faking live stream views using 4600 phones.
Not 426 4600, 4600 phones. A man in China's Zhejiang province has been jailed for manipulating live stream views, a scheme to earn him hundreds of thousands of dollars in just a few months.
He's identified by a surname Wang. He was sentenced to a year and three months in jail and fined 50,000 won't, which is $6,900 for illegal business operations.
His illegal business started in late 2022, after a friend informed him about the practice known as brushing. This entails using fake accounts to boost a live stream's real time engagement metrics, including views, likes and comments, which would later attract more legitimate viewership.
In his confession, Wang admitted to procuring 4600 smartphones controlled by specialized cloud software.
He also bought VPN services and other equipment for his business. He said each phone generated a dollar a day, well, less than a dollar a day. But in just four months, his operation made $415,000 from his two studios. He bought fake viewer accounts in bulk. While he occasionally entered problems, encountered problems during registration, he managed to register them with ease.
He, along with 17 other people, are under investigation for related offenses. So shout out to him, he really didn't hurt anything.
[01:18:15] Speaker A: He just, if he was this damn smart, just get a fucking legitimate job.
[01:18:22] Speaker B: This is job.
I mean, yeah, this is work. How did he afford to get 4600 phones?
[01:18:29] Speaker A: They had to been on Wifi.
[01:18:30] Speaker B: What do you mean?
[01:18:31] Speaker A: Like, just not have actual service, but just be on Wifi.
[01:18:34] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:18:36] Speaker A: Just dream.
[01:18:38] Speaker B: Probably a bunch of burner phones. I like little phones that I'm Samsung.
[01:18:46] Speaker A: A five s. Uh huh.
[01:18:47] Speaker B: Little cheap ass phones.
But I thought that was interesting and that kind of people be saying they'd be faking their streams and stuff like that, like at data farms or streaming farm. What was that?
It was a guy we did, he was scammer of the week one time for defrauding his job. He used his job's credit card and he spent like hundreds, I think he spent like one point something million dollars on it. This guy, he was a rapper too.
And Michael K. Williams, who played Omar on the wire, he had a show about like the underworld, like you know, drug dealers and people that did them type of job. And this guy paid money to a streaming farm to boost his streams on like Spotify and stuff. So he was scamming all the way around. I think that dude eventually went to jail, but we had did a story on him way before he was on that show or whatever. But yeah, niggas be doing that shit.
You got anything else before we get out of here? What about that dude? I forgot the name of the show.
It's a Michael K. Williams show. It used to come on Vice, you might can find it, but it was a whole bunch of little.
[01:20:09] Speaker A: They can buy me a couple of iPhone sixes and get this thing popping.
I got.
[01:20:17] Speaker B: I got some extra phones at the crib too. I never thought about that.
But like he said, but like they said in the article though, um, when a whole bunch of people is watching something, it'll make other people watch it attract.
[01:20:29] Speaker A: And then, cuz they'll. These social media platforms will stop.
What's the word I'm looking for? Not blackballing it. What they call it.
[01:20:37] Speaker B: Oh, stop.
[01:20:38] Speaker A: Shadow.
[01:20:39] Speaker B: Shadow banner. Yeah. Uh huh.
[01:20:43] Speaker A: Metal. Some motherfucking haters. How what they did meta just. They play in your face, like with the moment. One moment you'll be popping and then the next moment they just take it all away from you. Cause they want you to pay for promotion.
[01:20:56] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, that's something they ain't gotta worry about me.
[01:21:03] Speaker A: It's a dirty game.
[01:21:04] Speaker B: It is. But they realize that.
Some of them know they gotta like Twitter. You know, we've been talking about black Twitter for a while.
It was just free.
[01:21:14] Speaker A: Yep.
[01:21:14] Speaker B: And a lot of people was getting a lot of free promotion and stuff like that. They had to figure out a way to make some money. I still don't think they ever really figured out a way to make money. I think maybe like doing the.
Paying for the checks. Yeah, paying for the checks.
[01:21:29] Speaker A: And what you didn't need was free at one point.
[01:21:33] Speaker B: Yep. And paying for.
To be able to tweet more, like have more characters. I think that was something you could pay for, like some subscribers.
[01:21:43] Speaker A: I bet Twitter is draining, old boy.

It's like he don't care. Like, he's a horrible person. Anyway, Amy, let everybody know they can find you on social media.
