DIY Fails, Obama’s Critique, & Kamala Harris Myths Unpacked
22 Plays1 month ago
In this episode of Unsolicited Perspectives, Bruce Anthony and his sister J. Aundrea dive into a dynamic mix of humor, personal stories, and sharp political commentary. The episode kicks off with a playful exploration of the phrase "I can't call it" and Bruce’s DIY disasters—complete with Gorilla Glue and magnets that should never mix. From there, J. Aundrea’s midterm exam struggles bring on a relatable discussion about imposter syndrome and student life.
But the laughs turn to serious reflection as the siblings tackle major political topics, starting with Barack Obama's pointed criticism of Donald Trump and how race plays into political loyalty. They explore the media's treatment of Kamala Harris, digging into the myths and double standards she faces. They also reflect on Obama’s views on masculinity, the evolving strategies of the Democratic Party, and the importance of active political participation.
The episode doesn’t shy away from controversy, either, touching on Jaguar Wright's bold claims about public figures like Jay Z. With a blend of humor, deep thought, and a call to action, Bruce and J. Aundrea keep the conversation engaging and meaningful right through to the importance of voting in the upcoming elections. #diyfails #barackobama #kamalaharris #vote2024 #unsolicitedperspectives

Sibling Happy Hour Preview
00:00:34
Speaker
today's episode, it's the Sibling Happy Hour. I'm here with my sis, Jay Andrea. We're going to be talking about Obama calling people out, Kamala doing the circuit, and Jaguar right causing friction. But that's enough of the intro. Let's get to the show.
Cultural Expressions Explained
00:00:56
Speaker
What up, sis? What up, Breta? I can't call it. I can't call it. um But I can call something. You say? You always say. You know, I just noticed the last few episodes, you be like, I can't call it, but I am going to call it. call it. Well, I know you asked me how I'm doing and I can call it because I don't know how I'm doing. I just know that I got something to say.
00:01:21
Speaker
That's not what I can't call it means. Actually, do we even know what I can't call it actually means? It's just something that we as black people say. Well, everything in African American vernacular English is contextual.
00:01:37
Speaker
right So when somebody says, I can't call it, it depends on their body language. It depends on the tone, how they say it. but The context matters. So when you say, and I say, what up, brother? And you say, I can't call it. To me, that's saying, I'm good. i Hey, I ain't got no complaints. That's what it says to me. I am good. But then you go, but I can't call it. So you do have a complaint. Not a complaint. It's not a complaint. We do have a complaint.
00:02:07
Speaker
Something to say. I have something to say. Well, I can't call it doesn't mean I don't have something to say. I just don't have a complaint about anything. Yes, that's exactly what that means. I can't call even what I'm about to say. I can't call it.
Home Improvement Follies
00:02:25
Speaker
You know that I redesigned my place and I got new artwork and lights all over the place. Yes. On one wall where I have one of my booty paintings,
00:02:36
Speaker
I typically have- And he means that. Yeah, no, it's a booty painting. I got booty all over my walls. It's taste yeah well tasteful though. Yes. Tasteful booty. It is. It's art. It's art. But you chose it specifically because it was booties on there. Yes, yes. Of course I did. Yeah, got it. And I'm trying to get the light on the wall to shoot down on the painting. Mm-hmm.
00:02:59
Speaker
And I've been having a real difficult time. So I've tried Gorilla Glue. It has screws, right? I did not want to screw into the wall. So I tried Gorilla Glue. That stuck for a little while. Then it stopped working. Then I said, OK, fine. Let me just screw into the wall. The only problem is is that behind that drywall is a brick wall, and which means I can only use the screws that they gave me to a certain point. Yeah.
00:03:27
Speaker
And then I can't hang up the picture because they dump the screws don't go in all the way to the wall. So you would think we'll just get shorter screws, like go to Home Depot, some have them cut the screws ahead. Yeah. Then it doesn't stay in the wall.
00:03:39
Speaker
Well, you need anchors. Yeah, I don't know. OK. All that is very complicated. I don't know how to do all of that stuff. It's not complicated. It is. You drill the hole, you put the anchor in, then you screw in the thing and the anchor keeps it in the drywall. All right. Well, if this last thing don't work, I'm going to have to hire somebody to come in and do all that stuff or I'll just have our brother come over because I know he could do that stuff. OK, because I'm I'm. I'm vexed. So the next thing I came up with was magnets, because all the artwork that I have is basically, it's an adhesive that has a magnet, right? You take the adhesive side of it, attach it to the wall, the painting is magnetic, put it on the wall, you can even move it all around,
00:04:25
Speaker
It's dope. I was like- Shout out to Mixtiles. Hey, if y'all Hold Hold on. If they wanna sponsor us, we ain't gonna give them- Let us know. yeah We ain't gonna just give them publicity. So I was like, let me come up with magnets. Let me attach magnets to the back of this light and see if it works. And it does. Except when I attach the magnets to the wall and the magnets to the light, they're pulling towards each other. Yeah.
00:04:54
Speaker
And the magnets on the wall, the adhesive just comes right off. becauses So it only holds for a little while. Yeah. So I tried my last thing today. Okay. I super glued the magnet to the wall. No. You might as well have drilled the hole. After the Gorilla Glue, you might as well have drilled the hole. Yeah. Well, I don't know how to do that. And, well, I do know how to do that, but not well.
00:05:18
Speaker
go to the hardware store, tell them what your problem is, and ask them to help you find solutions, i.e. an anchor to anchor it in the drywall. Yeah, it actually came with an anchor. I know it came with anchors because I have very similar lights and mine are anchored into the drywall because I didn't put them in the stud.
00:05:44
Speaker
Yeah, okay, so like all that's a good idea, but let me tell you what happened when I used the crazy glue. It dripped all over the place, got on my hands. So immediately I'm like, well, let me go rest this off real fast. well Crazy glue, crazy glue, like,
00:06:04
Speaker
It gets stuck real quick, so it's all on my fingers. So I was reading like how to get it off my fingers, and there's all different types of- Rubbing alcohol. I didn't have rubbing alcohol, so I said white vinegar, it said dish soap, and it was like lotions. And I was like, well, hell, today is my Sunday, so I'm gonna be putting all types of lotions and creams on today, because today is my beautifying day. And it's almost come off, but also I pulled It started peeling off, so I was like, let me just yank it off and pulled like a big chunk of skin from my thumb. Yeah. And yeah, ladies and gentlemen, I'm an idiot. I also almost passed out yesterday. Oh, OK. Cleaning my bathroom. No.
00:06:46
Speaker
You mixed the chemicals and didn't ventilate? Yeah. ah Well, I mean, the doors were open, but yeah yeah I just wanted the place clean. When you start getting lightheaded, step out of the bathroom. Yeah, that's what I did. You know, I stepped out, but I was up down on the ground and at my old age, standing up quick, just to cut the brightest thing. Make sure you get lightheaded. dash That makes me even more lightheaded, so I'm already lightheaded. Then I get up quick. Basically, ladies and gentlemen,
00:07:12
Speaker
i I think that I'm an intelligent person, but I still do a lot of dumbish. Yeah, I mean, it's common sense. And common sense is not, you know, that common. You know, when you buy a product and it includes parts, such as an anchor,
00:07:31
Speaker
it you might want to take advantage of the parts it included. I just hate holes in my walls. I hate them.
00:07:43
Speaker
Yeah, but sometimes it's just a it's just a fact of life. No, I don't like that fact of life. If you wanna put that specific portrait light up, that's what it's gonna have to be. Now mine, my portrait lights, it's a plate that goes on the wall, because mine are rechargeable. So I have to take them off every once in a while. So they click onto this plate that that's what's actually anchored to the wall. Yeah, I have the same thing. It's the same exact thing. Yeah. yeah I mean, i I did that for all the other, because I have like four of them. So I did it for all the other ones. Well, i am I am coming up for Thanksgiving. If they are not up securely by Thanksgiving, I will bring my my tool bag and I will and mount them for you, because this is ridiculous.
00:08:33
Speaker
Y'all hear that? I got to get my little sister to come back to me late before me, because I can't do it. The only reason I know is because being a homeowner, you can't pay somebody for every little thing. You got to figure it out yourself. But if there's an issue with the plumbing under the sink, I'm not paying for somebody to do every little thing. I'm going on YouTube.
00:08:54
Speaker
I'm figuring out what part I'm going to the Home Depot, or Lowe's, or wherever. And I'm asking them, I'm like, here's my issue. And I'm showing them on my phone. What do I mean? Oh, you need a lug nut. OK, great. Show me where that is. And I do it myself. If I have to change my own, ah what is it? In the ah and the electrical box, like the socke was the little spark plugs. Listen, then I got to do it myself. Yeah, I feel you.
00:09:24
Speaker
Can you imagine me working at Home Depot? Like I faked my way in the interview and got hired. Don't know where nothing's at. yeah Don't know when nothing's called. Don't know when nothing's called. You're just handing people stuff. What you Now, if you don't know how to work this, then I don't know what to tell you. But this is what you need.
00:09:45
Speaker
I'd be like, like, I know where the hammer is. I know what drill is. Don't ask me about the drill bits. I know it's a flathead screwdriver and the other version of the screwdriver. Other than that, I can't help st- Yeah, well, Philip, look, Jesus was a carpenter. I ain't Jesus. Okay. I don't even think they had Philip screwdrivers in the time of the Lord. No, they didn't have no Philip screwdrivers in the time of the Lord.
00:10:11
Speaker
Look, I'm just telling you what's going on in my life. if the I broke the light also ah yesterday. Oh my God. The magnet pulled itself off the wall and fell to the ground and kind of shattered. So I super glued the part that broke back to it.
00:10:26
Speaker
Yeah, um I realize now if I use superglue, I need gloves and I need to be fully clothed, like from head to toe. You're not, I'ma be honest. And, you know, this might be hard to hear, but it's the truth. You're not handy. You've never been. That's not hard to hear. You've never, yeah yeah, you've never, never, and there's always something, either pieces of leftover or something's on backwards whenever you've put it together. And I just wish you would stop. I just wish you would stop. I wish you would find a friend.
Balancing Academics and Celebrations
00:10:56
Speaker
You know, make friends with a contractor or something. I i i do have somebody who I'm friendly with. I also don't like asking for help. Well, you need to learn to start because after all of that, you might as well have just put the holes in the wall. I understand you don't like holes in the wall. I get that. Yeah, but now I got gorilla glue and yes and crazy glue all on the wall. Yeah, and dripped everywhere. and I think some of it got on my fingers. It's stuck to your fingers. It's stuck to my finger. I think some of it got on my lip. That's bad. You don't have any rubbing alcohol. I don't even know why I'm asking this. Fingernail polish remover maybe. Yeah, I didn't have any fingernail polish remover. Yeah, I knew you wouldn't have that either. I almost got all the super glue off. It's just a little bit left. You just took a chunk out your thumb.
00:11:46
Speaker
Yeah, I did do that. ah I also learned that vitamin E oil, if I keep rubbing it, that's been working. I mean, it's almost gone. I just don't know where else on my body it dripped. I was just in the t-shirt and shorts, which was stupid. Basically, ladies and gentlemen,
00:12:02
Speaker
I talk on here and you know that I'm fairly educated. You know that I have pretty decent critical thinking skills. But when it comes to doing any type of manual labor, that's just not something to lift it up and put it down. yeah I don't have that ability.
00:12:18
Speaker
and oh you can move things yeah i can move a lot of stuff listen ladies and gentlemen if you need a couch move a washer and dryer anything he can move things and won't scratch up nothing won't scratch a wall he'll he'll yell out pivot a bunch of times but other than that and yeah A smooth mat. You can move stuff like a pro. Right. I can move things. And it's locked up together. Nope. Well, I did put my little coffee table, my little TikTok coffee table together. And it's still functional. It's working. And nothing came on backwards. OK. And all the little things lift up and properly? Yeah. I did it. I did now. ah It's what's a 30-minute job. I spread out over two to three days. That's...
00:13:09
Speaker
I would work on it for about 15, 20 minutes, take a break, come back to it. It only takes 15, 20 minutes to put together. So what are you working on for 15, 20 minutes and that you need a break? There's something about the instructions. they don't I need to watch a video of somebody putting it together and I can do that. But the instructions and then trying to picture it in my head, the try if something happened with reading the instructions. You go step by step.
00:13:35
Speaker
You don't have to read ahead. You don't have to read ahead. You know I'm meticulous. You know I'm meticulous. I'm reading it. You don't have to read ahead. Just step by step. Step by step. I think you're confusing yourself because you're reading ahead because you know what you want to see what's coming next. You don't need to know. Just go step by step, step one. Just look at that. Keep the rest of the structures folded up so you can't see them. Because you want to get to the end.
00:14:03
Speaker
Yes, I do. Are you trying to rush the process? No, no, no. OK. Press a piece to convey. No, no, no. OK. It's step by step. OK. All right. Well, yeah. Well, look. The super glue is up on the wall right now. Yeah. When we're done filming this, I'm going to try and put it back up there. All right. And hopefully it stays. We're staying for a while. It was just a magnet pulling the magnets.
00:14:33
Speaker
I don't think any of the super glue, Gorilla Glue, anything, I don't think drywall, painted drywall is a surface, especially because I'm pretty sure you don't have smooth walls.
00:14:47
Speaker
No, I do. The walls are smooth. No. Do they have like that orange peel texture, which is like, you ever seen an orange peel? How it's not quite smooth. It's get like, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. That's what I have. but yeah then you ah Granted, they're graded or something like that.
00:15:07
Speaker
Oh, I always knew it as like an orange peel texture. Okay, well yeah, I got that. I got that on this grill texture. Yeah, yeah. So none of those things is going to adhere. That's not true, because my pictures. Because your wall is not smooth. Our pictures use that adhesive and adhere. Because the adhesive on the back of the magnets is meant for painted drywall.
00:15:35
Speaker
Well, let me just tell you, this super glue better work. It's not going to work because it can. If that light fall one more again, I think I'm going to have to buy a new light because it's going to be broken. It's going to fall again. So I suggest put a pillow on the floor. Yeah, I'm going to do that. Because it's going to fall. Yeah. Well, ladies and gentlemen, this was the dillion dally in this first segment. Yeah, I didn't even get to my dilly dally. We got a little bit more time in this first segment. What's your dilly dally?
00:16:03
Speaker
Well, midterms are coming up. Uh-oh. OK. How's that going? Hey, if you think I'm prepared, you thought wrong. And then I think one of them, one of my midterms at the end of the month, but what was next week? And I was just in my mind thinking they're both at the end of the month. No, no, no.
00:16:28
Speaker
One of those next week, I am not prepared, but that's OK. Today is going to be devoted to creating my study guide. Oh, that's real. That's real. ah still That's professional of you. That's what I do. So I take notes on you know our lectures and the class, so I compile it all into a study guide. And I just read that over and over and over again. OK.
Political Critiques and Discussions
00:16:50
Speaker
Is the test open book? It's going to be. um ah What you mean it's going to be?
00:16:58
Speaker
Listen, did he explicitly say that Tess is open book? He did not. But did he also say that he's not locking down our browser or anything like that? He did. So he's not doing it. So that means quiet as is kept is open book.
00:17:14
Speaker
But you know, open book's not helpful if you don't know where the information is and you gotta go to the index, find it, go to that page, then you gotta read through it because you ain't never looked at it before. So people can still fail the open book test because they don't know where the information is. So that's next. And then also I am, one of my nieces is turning 16 and I'm doing her sweet 16. Yeah, we at that age. Jesus. We at that age, we at that age. Is it the one I'm thinking of?
00:17:46
Speaker
No, not my best friend's daughter. She already turned 16. She's about to turn 17 in February. Jesus. Yeah. Yeah. Remember her as a baby, a toddler? Yeah, I do. Yeah. Well, my gaza is going to be seven at the end of the month. We getting old. You know, so I'm shooting her sweet 16 photos, so I'm getting a lot of texts.
00:18:07
Speaker
I just got some texts with some ideas and outfits and, okay, so now she wants to do the photo shoot Thursday. we can We can do that. All right. Oh Lord. And every response, every response to like, when I say, what about this idea? is' It's usually period or like, you know.
00:18:27
Speaker
so yeah they I'm like, okay, I think that's. i o d t Yes, it's either that or there's three Ds at the end. Oh, I didn't know about the three Ds, okay, all right. There's period, and then there's period, like there's different periods, so I gotta figure, I gotta decipher that, but it's always nerve-wracking.
00:18:54
Speaker
So part of me doesn't like taking photos the same way I don't like singing in public in that you never know what people's expectations are and if you'll fulfill them. um So it's kind of hard sharing an art.
00:19:09
Speaker
like that means a lot to you. yes And you just don't know, oh God, are people gonna receive it the way that you intended? Are they gonna like it? You know, is it? which But your success rate, it's really high. It's really high, but every time feels like the first time. Imposter syndrome. Yes. yeah every Every single time feels like the first time. And I'm getting heavy imposter syndrome in grad school. o Cause I'm like, girls.
00:19:39
Speaker
You doing steady, guys. Do you know what I used to do? I didn't even take notes. I used to walk in the lecture and just be like, I'll remember it. Never remembered it.
00:19:50
Speaker
I don't remember. No, this is a complete career of data science, complete career departure for me. yeah So I got to pay attention because I have to learn this because I've already applied for a few internships and one of them came back from a pretty big company and they said, oh great, here's our coding assessment.
00:20:15
Speaker
I got seven days to do that. I probably got like two days left on the count of elder to do this coding assessment. me What's a midterm coming up? What's a midterm? Like they want to know that you have these technical abilities. And so I really have to learn it. I can't just BS my way through this degree. Yeah. So you got to learn it. I got to do the reading. I got to do the homework. I got to study now. So we'll see y'all and listen.
00:20:42
Speaker
Wish me luck, please, because listen, this is what I'm gonna tell y'all, ladies and gentlemen, if I'll pass this test, I mean, some of y'all ain't praying for me. I don't care what you believe. I don't care what you believe in. Pray for me, please, because I need it. All right, speaking of not BSing,
00:21:11
Speaker
Barack Obama ain't BSing when he's coming out talking nowadays. And we gonna get into that next. are Sis, Obama has been own one. Yes. He's been own one. During a rally for Kamala Harris in Pittsburgh, Barack Obama sharply criticized Donald Trump calling him crazy and questioning this is economic claim and questioning his economic claims. Obama argued that Trump takes credit for economic recovery that actually began under his administration. yeah And we all know that this has been the case. He's been saying, I had a great economy. He inherited a great economy.
00:21:56
Speaker
because Barack Obama created a great economy. But that wasn't the only thing that he did. So he's... Barack was it in it a rally and also in the offices of Kamala Harris's campaign and a certain campaign headquarters in a certain state. This is what he said in questioning black men's not being able to, like, ride with Kamala Harris like they did with him. He said, basically, hey, fellas, basically, this is what he was saying. What's up with this lukewarm support for BP Harris? You know, we're comparing this enthusiasm gap between now and when he was running in 2008. And then, you know, hit him with a call curve ball, basically saying maybe, just maybe, that some dudes are having a problem with voting for her.
00:22:49
Speaker
because she's a female. And then he was bringing up the fact that it was like, look, black women have always supported us. Why aren't we supporting the black woman?
00:23:00
Speaker
ah I'm not going to use a specific quote because I know you want to do that. I just wanted to bring up the topic. But he's he's out here calling black men, us, out because you've got a lot of black men. It's not just black men. It's men in general. But more specifically, black men not supporting Kamala Harris and not having a real legitimate reason as to why they're not supporting her. So the underlying basis is they just don't want to support women.
00:23:31
Speaker
Yeah, because any of the reasons or excuses that they come up with for not supporting her have been long debunked, right? Oh, she sent thousands of black men to jail. Well, we all know that that has been debunked, right? Like she actually created pathways for um for folks who got arrested, I believe mostly for drug-related crimes, non-violent drug-related crimes. Right.
00:24:01
Speaker
to reenter the workforce and things like that. We we know that arrests actually dropped while she was a prosecutor for these non-violent crimes, uh, drug-related crimes. And so that's been long debunked. Anything that they come up with has been long debunked to the point where Barack said, look, this is probably because y'all got a problem with a woman.
00:24:29
Speaker
Like, and just be honest about that. one of the One of the great things I like about people who've been getting out and stumping for her, not just Barack Obama, but you got i mean but Tim Walz, Pete Buttigieg, all the people who've been out there and s stumping for her, is Kamala Harris has created an environment for people to read Republicans for filth.
00:24:56
Speaker
where we where Democrats are typically, oh, we're going to take the higher, right? Like Michelle Obama, when they go low, we go high. Whereas her convention speech this year was like, when they go low, we going to hell, because absolutely not, right? I i feel like...
00:25:15
Speaker
Kamala Harris and not only that, her her her social media team at Kamala HQ on TikTok, they have been getting in people's ass, okay? And so she's created this space for people to be honest and to read people. And so you got a different, he don't need an anger translator anymore. He's like, look, Ron, I add did my two terms. I'm out, okay? So now I'm gonna keep it real.
00:25:45
Speaker
Yeah, that's what he did. He kept it real, real. Yes, all of his stump speeches for her. his I mean, anybody that's been out there has been like, hey, these guys are weird and crazy. And are y'all crazy for thinking about voting for them? What's wrong with y'all? Like, everybody's been getting out there and be like, hey, this is serious. stuff but Stop messing around. what you I love that.
00:26:08
Speaker
um Democrats are kind of moving more into a space of light. Hey, let's call this stuff out. Like, I'm tired of this. We keep taking the high road and thinking that if you have the ah you know the moral authority or the moral superiority of it, that's all you need. No, to hell with that. They have the...
00:26:28
Speaker
Like, I'm sick of it. We need to start making stuff up the way they make stuff up. No, we don't need to make stuff up. We don't have to. We don't have to. The Janie Mann couch thing took on a life of its own. It was amazing. And I hope it never stops. No, it wasn't true, though. It doesn't matter. We all knew it wasn't true. But it could have been.
00:26:50
Speaker
yeah
00:26:53
Speaker
We're going to get into jaguar jaguar right and what could have been true just because you say something. But, Jade, that was not true. No. it I don't even know how it possibly could have been true because I don't know the functionality of something like that. Listen, I don't either. I had a conversation with a gentleman last week. He's Jewish. And there's a reason why I bring that up. There's context of this, ladies and gentlemen, so follow me.
00:27:23
Speaker
And he voted for Trump not once, but twice. in it He votes based on his pocketbook. or And for some strange reason, he thinks he thought that Trump's economic policies would be beneficial to him. He doesn't have any. So when Biden came out in support after October 7 with Israel and supplied them with everything that they requested. yeah He said, I really like that I'm voting for Joe Biden to go around. I was like, just because just because he's supporting Israel, I was like, you don't go no deeper than that. And this is a person that's got engineering degrees, law degrees, like all different types of degrees, right? So he's learned. A lot of political science ones. No, he's learned, as my man from Step Brothers would say, she's a hospital of learned doctors. He's learned. Yeah. right But um kind of dumb.
00:28:15
Speaker
And I said, OK, all right, you're voting for Joe Biden now because of that. Then recently he said to me, I'm going to read. you First he asked me, have you heard of Bob Woodward? And I was like, how long have you known me? And you know my story. And like, what type of question is that? Of course, I've heard of Bob Woodward. He's like, he's got a new book coming out. I was like, the one about Trump? No, that already came out. And he's got a book coming out about the Biden administration and their policies in the Middle East. I was like, OK. He's like, I'm going to read it. And then then make my I'm going to read it on election day and then make my decision. I said, what? I thought you already made your decision. Well, no, Joe Biden's not running anymore.
00:28:54
Speaker
I was like, yeah, but his running mate is now at the front of the ticket. Yeah. yeah Well, I don't know what she stands for. I was like, she's got a whole website. it said I would imagine going to the website to understand her policies would be a little bit better than reading a behind the scenes book of the Biden administrations right with the Middle East.
00:29:14
Speaker
And I was like, and it's almost a continuation of Biden's policies with a little bit of tweaks. So if you were going to vote for Joe Biden, I don't really understand why you wouldn't continue on with that with VP Harris. Well, I just don't know what you stand for. I said, once again, there's a whole website. There's a whole website. yeah You can just Google her name and the website is going to pop up. She outlines her entire platform. That is something you will not find with Trump. Right. And so I was like... Unless you read Project 922 pages of Project 2025, then you'll get it. So I called him out. I was like, it seems to me you're not coming up with any logical reason of why you would go from voting for Biden to being a toss-up now, mean except for the fact
00:30:00
Speaker
that she's, I said, woman first, because I wanted to emphasize woman, except that she's a woman and she's black. No, that's not it. I was like, OK, well, let's just lay this out as a court case.
00:30:12
Speaker
You were going to vote for the person that was ahead of the ticket. She was on the ticket as well. She now becomes the head of the ticket. Now you are all of a sudden having doubts about voting for a person that's going to basically continue on Biden's policies with her own twist, right? ah The twist you can find out by going to her website. Right.
00:30:34
Speaker
and because Because again, she and Biden are not the same person. Exactly. So there's going to be differences between the two of them. Right. in have and And also they're coming from different backgrounds, different perspectives. So it's there's going to be differences which are outlined, as you said, several times now on her campaign website.
00:30:57
Speaker
And instead, and I said, instead of just doing that tonight, you could do it tonight. After our conversation, you could do it. Instead of doing that, you're going to read a book about an administration who's not even on the ticket.
00:31:11
Speaker
who Like Biden's not on the ticket anymore. And then you're going to make your decision on that day. And I said that as an engineer, as a researcher, as a lawyer, right that is what you're going to base your decision on. That's the evidence? Well, i don' I said no. So the only logical conclusion is she's a female and she's black and you're having trouble reconciling with that.
00:31:36
Speaker
Yeah, there's no other... There's nothing else. Like, y'all, I get it. You don't wanna say... I'm racist and sexist. Nobody wants to say that. I don't think anybody legitimately wants to say that they're racist and sexist. Some people do. Some people have no problem with it. I see them on TikTok. And I see them on X. So some people have no problem doing that. And they are not bots. But there's no other explanation, guys. Sorry. Sorry, not sorry. But there's no other explanation.
00:32:14
Speaker
then you have a problem with the fact that she is a black woman. really And you had the damnedest time, the damnedest time operating under a black male president. So my God. Well, the black male president led the way. So much animosity that a black man was in office led the way for those people that were so agitated that Barack Obama was in office.
00:32:44
Speaker
to then vote a man that is the absolute color opposite. They went to literally hell and picked up a candidate and said, this is what we want. because we had eight years of that. Yeah, because the Berthers and the Tea Partiers and the Klan and the Nazis, they all coalesced and the Proud Boys and all of them, which are just, honestly, it feels like a bunch of white Latinos that are also racist, but bey they all coalesced under a red baseball cap.
00:33:21
Speaker
And that's what you have today. And that is completely tanking your party because the people in power in that party thought, well, this is a group ah this is a dumb, unaged you know uneducated electorate that we can control, that we can use and we can control. No, you cannot. You cannot control willfully ignorant people. I just want, you know, we had this discussion. We brought this up.
00:33:48
Speaker
last week. i And I want people to really go and look at the steps that were done by the Nazi party power ah party to gain power in Germany. And I want you to compare it to Trumpism. I'm not going to say the Republican party.
00:34:10
Speaker
because there's still some sensible Republicans. A lot of them aren't in office anymore. I mean, Mitt Romney is literally the only one that I can think of that's left. Some of them have been kicked out the party. Right. Some legacies have been kicked out the party. That's the reason why I call it Trumpism, not the Republican Party. I want you to just look compare them and look at them. And you can't...
00:34:32
Speaker
You can't tell me that there's not the same trajectory, that the outline is the same. The conclusion could be the same if we're not smarter. And that's what Barack was talking about. He was like, look what is this a question of? right they You think that Donald Trump is a man because he downgrades and talks down to people? That's not the sign of a man. That's never been the sign of a man. You know what? Another thing that bothers me, these toxic traits that we prescribe to masculinity, like not admitting that you're wrong.
Toxic Masculinity and Leadership
00:35:04
Speaker
Men don't ever admit that they're wrong. That is by far one of the dumbest things that I think I've ever heard in my entire life. No, grown ass men admit when they're wrong. Yeah.
00:35:18
Speaker
Yeah, they take accountability. Adults take accountability for the things that they say and they do. So if you can if you find you are unable to take accountability for the things you say and do, then ah you can liken yourself to a child because a child doesn't know how to take accountability.
00:35:39
Speaker
And you want to know what's crazy? Men damn sure will call women out for not taking accountability real quick and expect them to take accountability all the time. But we'll sit up there and be like, well, the excuse for the things that we do sometimes, well, I'm just a man. That's just how we are. Nope. Nope. no listen you can be a grown up. When the your response to taking accountability to something for something is, well, what about Dot, dot, dot. But what about? yep You've already lost me. You've already lost me. Because why are you worried about what's happening over there? ah We're talking about this specific instance of you doing something you need to be held accountable for. Well, what about, well, how come, well, what about, okay. You've already lost me. ye Well, did you want to add anything else to Barack on Fire? That's what I'm calling it, Barack on Fire.
00:36:36
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I love it. I love the new direction that a lot of ah Democrats are taking now. And I honestly feel like it started with Tim Walz calling them weird. And once we realized like the traction that it took,
00:36:55
Speaker
not just on social media, but in the media, we were like, wait, we can also do this? Yes. Been waiting for it. We should. Yeah, been waiting for it. There are Democrats and liberals out there, myself included, who have just been disappointed, just beyond disappointed with the lack of vigor and vitriol that we really should be displaying.
00:37:24
Speaker
true to some of the most egregious things that come out of that man's mouth or out of Trumpism period. Mm-hmm. Yeah, you're right. You ain't lying. And I love also that we're calling each other, calling each other out and calling each other in. Mm-hmm. Because that was really a moment. Calling out and calling in. Yeah, because that was... Call somebody in. Like, I know you were outside and your mom would say, come on in and come eat. Right. Like, I was calling somebody in. I called somebody out. Is that how you want to... You sure that's what you're thinking? Because this is what I think you're thinking. How you call someone in, though. That's a new one on me.
00:38:01
Speaker
you call someone in by making them a part of the solution. Okay. Yeah, I'm crawling you out because. I wonder where you're at. I'm calling you out by saying, you're not voting for her or you're thinking about not voting or voting for Trump because she's a black woman. So that's me calling you out. I think i think the black woman is the icing. and I think it starts with woman.
00:38:29
Speaker
I think it starts with woman. And I think this is just my perspective. I think it starts with woman, that people are just like, I don't want those for a woman. Both men and women right have have have an issue with that. Then you top that off with a black woman. And let's say Michelle Obama, that that seemed like the only one that can get general consensus on everybody. ah she could be She could be president right now if she ran. But you have Kamala Harris, who has literally been in every branch of the government. Yes, judicial legislative executive. She has worked her way up for prosecutor through district attorney, senator, vice president, 100% elected official.
00:39:16
Speaker
ah She was not a DEI hire because no one hired her. A population voted for her and elected her into these positions. That's deaths literally the opposite of being a DEI hire.
00:39:33
Speaker
And you can't sleep your way to that top. No. If it yeah why so had been able to, a woman would have done it before. We would have been taken over. If you could sleep your way to the top, we would have been taken over because y'all aren't that easy. So it's... That's true. and It's not... Come on now. Come on now. We would have had two turns with Monica Lewinsky.
00:39:59
Speaker
that moica he is He did not have sexual relations with that woman. Yes, he did. What is sexual relations? I'm not going to get into this specifically. It don't have to be intercourse. If sexual relations, he's the one that left it broad like that. He did leave it real broad. He should have just said, I did not have sex with that woman, and he would have been in the clear. But you added the relations. Speaking of Kamala Harris, though.
00:40:24
Speaker
I didn't get to be calling people in. Calling people in is giving them space to process, which you just said, and then making them a part of the solution. and That's by saying, listen, hey, i I get it because the way society is set up,
00:40:41
Speaker
Men are supposed to run things. White men are supposed to run things. The president has always been a white man except for one time. and American, American society. The American society, yes. Well, so i listen, I don't know what's happening in Bucharest. Okay, I'm talking about America. Okay, I don't know what's happening in Turkey, I don't know. Could be some things. It probably is, I don't know. I'm talking about America. oh So I get it, but you need to make space for the future. And the future is not necessarily white and male.
00:41:23
Speaker
No, it's definitely not white and male. And that's why they're going nuts. Yeah, well, nobody ever wants to lose. No, but nothing is being... And lose what they got. But nothing is being lost because again, this is not a zero sum game where there's this finite pie and power has to be conserved, power has to be hoarded.
00:41:49
Speaker
with one group because there won't be enough power to go. That's not how this works. Yeah. She would be the leader of for the entire country. Yeah, they don't want to see that though. I see that. I like what she's been doing
Kamala Harris in the Media
00:42:03
Speaker
lately. Kamala Harris has been on a significant media tour, yes targeting a wide array of audiences with appearances across traditional and non-traditional platforms. She's been on the Call Her Daddy podcast, which Call Her Daddy is specifically geared towards focusing on women, relationships, and sex, and things like that. but
00:42:24
Speaker
The host brought Kamala Harris on and even gave an invitation to Trump to come on as well to just talk about women issues. is she just Kamala Harris just kind of like opened up a little bit more, showed a little bit more of a personality. She was on The Howard Stern Show. yeah right She did her 60 Minutes interview, the one where Trump says that it was cut and edited to make her uh, coherent and presidential. No, she's just coherent and presidential. And you are not. Yeah, that's all that is. Yeah. And then she was on The Lay Show with Stephen Colbert and, you know, had a beer and showed that she's, you know, she's dead. A Milla High Life. Right. You know, right. Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if y'all know anything about beers, but Milla High Life
00:43:10
Speaker
is the hood of a ah the Miller Bears. I used to drink Miller Eye Life when I didn't have enough bread to get me a Miller Lite. Right. But she got a you know she got to pe appeal to those Milwaukee. To Wisconsin. That's what she did. She got to appeal to Wisconsin. It is the champagne of beers. So there's been some pushback.
00:43:33
Speaker
about her not doing interviews. And she was like, all right, well, I'm going to jump on these traditional and non-traditional platforms. And did you see our Trump jumped on a podcast as well when they were laughing on his laughing him in his face? Yes. What is his name? Andrew Schultz. Andrew Schultz as a podcast. And and it's hit or miss with him sometimes because he can be a controversial figure. I don't know about comedians having podcasts talking about important issues if they're not ready to have important conversations. Right. Not everything is a joke. And Andrew Schultz has been known to be ah denigrating towards black women.
00:44:15
Speaker
Well, that was just recently. I don't know if he has a history of it. He has a history of it. He has a history of being denigrating to a lot of people. He yeah was mocking Trump straight to his face. To his face. to Trump said, you know, I've never lied about anything. And the whole cast on the podcast worked out laughing. He said I'm a truthful person or something like that. And yeah, they laughed in his face because that's- I don't think that came out the way he won it as opposed to- Kamala Harris is getting rave reviews for each one of these interviews that she's doing. Oh, and the view. She was on the view where her and Whoopi had a look and all black people know that look. That look said, Whoopi looked at Kamala Harris and said, just that look said, that's my girl. That's my girl right there. She about to be president. It was that look black women give each other of just like,
00:45:11
Speaker
Go ahead, girl. You better go. Wait a minute. Black women have given me their look, too, when they're thrown out. It's a look of pride. It's a look of pride that Black women give. And we just be like, there's a future right here. like Well, we made we don't know. like I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday, and she came over to visit me and during my visiting hours. Oh, you did?
00:45:36
Speaker
and During my business hours, she came over to the business league and she was like, she's got to win. She's got to win. I was like, just prepare yourself yeah right for disappointment because I can tell you what, Trump's supporters don't be Trump supporters. Right. And people that think that they're losing power are going to vote.
00:46:00
Speaker
for Donald J. Trump. So yes, this is hopeful. And she's doing all these interviews to to show people her personality. Because it's like with vice presidents, you really don't know. Yeah. You don't know. and And to reach people that she wouldn't ordinarily reach by going on alternative media. So it's one thing for her to be on CNN or MSNBC or even to do 60 Minutes because you're She's kind of speaking to people who are already going to vote for her, right? so Well, she's speaking to people that already know her. Right. They not necessarily may vote for her, but like know her and pay attention and have been paying attention since she became the head of the ticket. Right.
00:46:44
Speaker
So going on Howard Stern or going on, well, even Steve Colbert. like But going on ah call Call Me Out My Daddy, I think that was the name of the podcast. Call Her Daddy. Call Her Daddy podcast. Like doing that type of stuff where people, there there are a lot of people out there eitherther who are just not engaged in politics. It's like, I but just don't want that in my life. My life is a stressful enough. And I can kind of get it. I kind of get it. You don't want to have, look,
00:47:13
Speaker
In preparation for these shows, I'll be stressing myself, the hell out, reading and researching because I'm just like, God, this is so depressing. So I understand why people will want to wipe it out of their life. But this election is very important. Matter of fact,
00:47:28
Speaker
dare I say every election for the rest of our lives if we don't get a wrap on what's happening in this country is going to be extremely, extremely important. Yeah. It's gone on a day oh the the 1992 election where you got three candidates, but two candidates that are and that are part of the Republican and Democratic Party and and Herbert Walker and Clinton who are fairly similar in their policies. Like, gone are those days, now it's extremes. There isn't a whole whole lot of common ground. So, right every election is going to be important.
00:48:02
Speaker
And people need to prepare themselves that she might not win. But going on these platforms, these non-traditional platforms, to reach to people that are just like, I don't want to pay attention to politics. I'm not saying that call her daddy that the listeners are not interested in politics. um That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying in all of these non-traditional platforms, right Most of the time, people are just like, I'm just on this to just laugh and take my mind off of stuff. Right. She's going on here, being personable, laughing, drinking champagne and beers, but also giving you policy. Right. and And do you know how many? I mean, The View is the number one daytime talk show.
00:48:46
Speaker
And it has been for quite some time. It has a gigantic viewership of primarily women, so her going on that show, she's reaching people who might not be, like you said, politically engaged. They just watch the view.
00:49:04
Speaker
to hear these women you know discuss the topics of the day, now they're getting to see her per you know her personable side. And one of the cool things that's come out is during a commercial break for The View, a few of the kids in the audience, she wrote ah absence excuses right because they missed school to come ah to that taping of The View and she wrote them all notes.
00:49:31
Speaker
ah from the vice president excusing their absence and thanking the, you know, the educators for for what they do. Like, that's, I'm glad that we got, you know, that was also captured and put out because we needed to see that, so otherwise we wouldn't have seen it. And I love the interaction that she had. And she was writing, and she was writing one of them, she was like, this is just today, right? It's not for no couple days, this is for today. This is for today. yeah Yeah, I mean, the more I see the behind the scenes, where're forget forget the convention, forget any time the debates. yeah It is clear, educated, intelligent woman that is presidential. yeah Like, I got that. When you get to that level, you're supposed to be polished. Yes.
00:50:24
Speaker
We just have had some person over the last 12 years that's extremely unpolished. Unpolished and unserious. And unserious. So I get that, and that's great, right? But I wanted to see, I like seeing where the human side, right? When she lets her guard down. Yes. And the last the last presidents that kind of did that, I'll give W. W would let his guard down and kind of show his personality. But Locke, definitely. And then Bill.
00:50:52
Speaker
Right? But other than that, like they... Biden... Biden will get out there and be like, hey, come on. And by the way, hey, I'm being serious. I'm doing Dana Carvey's impression of him on SNL, which is top tier, by the way. But they'll get out there and he'll say, it's stupid. You know, Biden will get out there and say something. He was the pit bull that Barack couldn't be.
00:51:18
Speaker
Yeah, you're right. Which is part of the reason Barack chose him as the running mate, because he could say, as an older white statesman, things that Barack as a black man could not say. You're right. There was also, I wanted to talk about her appearance. ah ah She did a town hall on Univision. All right. Okay, so let's lesss table that. Okay. Let's table that. Let's move this all to another segment because we've been going 30 minutes strong and people need a quick break.
00:51:48
Speaker
A quick break. Yeah. Because we've been throwing some stuff at them. So ladies and gentlemen, let me take a quick, let us take a quick break. And in the next segment, we're going to continue on with Kamala Harris's appearance on Univision. Univision. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I don't i can't do that. And then we're going to get into Jaguar right. We're going to do all that next.
00:52:13
Speaker
are All right, Jay, so you wanted, before we get to Jagged Rural White, we want to touch on one more appearance from Kamala Harris all on Univision, but you yeah and enunciated and pronounce this so much better. I, and listen, don't know if I'm saying it right.
00:52:36
Speaker
I just put a little sauce on it, so I apologize if y'all get that. That's not how you pronounce it. well I'm sorry. But she had a ah ah great town hall on Univision, and there was a young lady in the audience who had six weeks prior lost her mother um to cancer, I believe.
00:52:57
Speaker
And um she was never able to she was able to get legal status for her father, but she was never able to get it for her mother due to the changes in the laws and things like that. and um as as everybody knows, you know Kamala lost her mother as well to cancer. And her question was a you know really poignant one about you know creating pathways to citizenship because she felt that her um her mother didn't get the care that she should have and that she deserved. And it was just a really touching exchange between the two of them. And then after the town hall was over,
00:53:36
Speaker
VP Harris went right over to that lady and held her hands and they just talked and chatted for a little bit and that's that level of compassion and empathy that she has that we We just don't see it from, I can't say we don't see it from male candidates, but it's not, empathy and compassion isn't really what's prided in masculinity, right? It's more about strength, um intelligence.
00:54:06
Speaker
control dominance, like things like that. Being compassionate and being empathetic is not a trait that's prized, but being compassionate, empathetic, nurturing, these are traits that are prized in womanhood or in femininity. And I think that is something that is really needed in our politics. We haven't really had it at that level before to have a candidate who you really feel like understands where you come from, because Trump does not.
00:54:36
Speaker
um He's never had to think about childcare, which is why he couldn't answer the question, why he thought tariffs, even though I don't want to get started on tariffs. I don't have a whole tirade about tariffs in the After Hours show. If y'all want to listen to it, it'll be a lot of cussing. but But he's never had to deal with childcare. did he Has he ever taken care of an Asian parent while taking care of his children? No, he doesn't know what any of these things. He's never been middle class. He's never been working class. He doesn't understand what these people need. of Grocery, you know, sounds like a, I don't know, the stomach is talking. What are you talking about? Because I'm sure this man doesn't know what groceries are.
00:55:28
Speaker
Uh, I'm sure he's gone grocery-stopping, grocery-stopping. Oh, why would he have ever? Why would he have ever? Why wouldn't have, has it ever been just food appears at dinner time? Well, i that's funny. I will say, and I'm not knocking Hillary Clinton. I'm not, because I believe Hillary Clinton to be brilliant. Yes.
00:55:51
Speaker
But I want to say the differences in Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton are very poignant in that you Kamala Harris is is showing that empathy and compassion, where we never really saw it from Hillary. and in never and And it seemed like Hillary was a little robotic, which turned some people off.
00:56:16
Speaker
Well, what I think the misstep was with the Clinton campaign was they tried to put her on par masculinity wise with men. Instead of letting her and lean into being a a mom and a grandma and understanding you know, women's issues and family issues and things like that from that perspective, because that is who she is. right You know, instead of letting her lean into that, well, we don't want her to be too feminine, you know, we're gonna put her in these boxy suits. Yeah, Kamala Harris wears suits, but they're gorgeous. And, you know, like, you don't ever see her in a dress. She's always in pants and a blazer and everything, but, you know, it's still...
00:57:02
Speaker
I feel like you're getting more authenticity where we didn't get to see the authentic Hillary Clinton because it felt more like she was trying to play a role to seem just as strong as a male candidate. Whereas Kamala really doesn't have to do that because she's like, I'm a black woman in America. I am just as strong as a male candidate and I can absolutely just be myself.
00:57:27
Speaker
Well, I kind of like I kind of like the contrast, you know, when I'm going to equate things to wrestling before we move on to Jaguar, right? Just to make this point. Yeah. WWF and then E is is whenever anybody thinks of wrestling, that's what they think of. And there was this company called WCW that had been in in existence since the 80s. That was the second competitor, which was the Coke to the Pepsi, right? Yes, yes. They hired a new man to to run things in WCW because they just weren't competitive. His name was Eric Bischoff. And they were he was like, okay,
00:58:01
Speaker
what can I do to be different than them? Because WCW had tried to be the same to compete, but they couldn't compete against the original, right? You can't mimic something, and when the original is still the original and is better, yeah you have to be different. So we said, okay, when they have a tape show, we're going to be live. They have cartoonish characters, we're going to deal with real-life characters, right? Just being different. and yeah grew the company to the point where they were surpassing the WWF. I think showing this contrast. I love WCW. I didn't. ah I didn't. I was showing that contrast that Kamala Harris is doing with Donald Trump and end to Hillary, right not trying to show this masculine side, but leaning into the femininity of who she is because she already has the strength being a prosecutor, being in every single branch of the government, throughou being a black woman, being a ah being a mom, all that yeah all that shows strength, leaning into the other stuff, and I think that's really dope. So, yes, when she shows that type of empathy and humanity, and then you contrast that to Donald Trump,
00:59:17
Speaker
and them saying on January 6th, hey, your vice president is kind of in trouble and has been documented and he says, so what? I mean, you know, you know, one person actually cares about people and the other one doesn't. But speaking about people that are saying things.
00:59:38
Speaker
i boy it Clearly seems like they don't care about people.
Celebrity Allegations and Credibility
00:59:41
Speaker
Jackwell, right. Well, y'all might not know who we're talking about. and You should, because she was just on Piers Morgan, and I'll get to that. But she she's a singer, songwriter, neo-soul, by the way. and Songwriter, artist.
00:59:54
Speaker
She's done albums and all that stuff, but that's not important. We're going to get into what's important about her. She's made several controversial statements over the years, particularly on social media and on different podcasts. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she gained attention from making unverified claims about various celebrities and music executives, including allegations of sexual assault and child endangerment. If you say those two things out in the technology world, social media world, you're going to get attention. Because it's one thing the that people do care about is child endangerment. Even people that don't like kids is going to be like, we've got to protect the kids. You're always going to get their attention when you're doing things like that. yeah Some of her claims have coincided with actual legal cases. yeah So like a broke clock,
01:00:44
Speaker
is right twice a day. Yes. Guess what? That clock is still broke as hell. I can't tell you no time. It has lost its function. Yes. But it can still be right twice a day. Yes. She did. She claimed stuff about Sean Diddy. You know, he is facing federal charges. And she said that, you know, he had some sexual assault i got allegations before. She accused Carmen and Talib Kweli, two rappers, of allegations unsubstantiated by the weight of rape.
01:01:15
Speaker
and sexual misconduct. And of course, she made claims about R. Kelly, but those weren't really like everybody knew about R. Kelly before the cases. But let's get to Piers Morgan. She recently appeared on the Piers Morgan show, Uncensored, where she made explosive allegations about Jay-Z and Beyonce. Yeah. referred Yeah, go ahead. Piers...
01:01:37
Speaker
Pierce Morgan is just tabloid TV, but even he- He used to be a credible journalist. He used to- Even he should have vetted this. Okay, I'm gonna get to that, because I had a conversation with somebody about journalism and how he failed to do his due diligence. Exactly. But let's get to what she actually said about Jay-Z and Beyonce. She's referred to Jay-Z as a monster and accused the couple of various misdeeds. These claims were later being totally false by Jay-Z and his legal team. She said that Jay-Z, like I said, is a monster and accused him of various misdeeds, including
01:02:15
Speaker
Keeping people against their will and putting them on the plane while they're unconscious. And she claimed that Beyonce was complicit in these actions and suggested the couple of had hundreds of victims. Right, also implied that Jay-Z and Beyonce were involved in criminal activities similar to those of P Diddy Combs. What was Jay-Z and Beyonce's response to it? Following rights appearance on the Pierce Morgan show, Jay-Z and Beyonce's legal team issued a legal ultimatum to Morgan, demanding that the interview be edited to remove the false claims. Pierce Morgan agreed to that and came on there and apologized and edited the interview to comply with the legal request. My friend that came over yesterday,
01:02:57
Speaker
not burst in the hip-hop world. So she was like, well, Jay-Z and Diddy, they're like thick as thieves, right? I'm like, no, they're not. She was like, I thought they were connected. Like, no, they're not connected. They're two separate record labels and entities. They're not connected at all.
01:03:17
Speaker
Oh, well, I thought you know when she made those statements, I was like, you got to understand, she has no credibility at all, but they they did file legal action. Yes, because Piers Morgan holds a journalistic responsibility to not allow people to come on air and defame them yes with lies and without evidence.
01:03:38
Speaker
yeah So yes, that's the reason why they sued Pierce Morgan. And they just said, take out the false claims. Don't get rid of the entire interview. But take out the false claims. If she got evidence to back it up, let her back it up. But she ain't backing up nothing. No. Yeah. it Jabara Wright belongs on these obscure podcasts that are basically interviewing her for clickbait, and we listen to the sometimes insane things, sometimes proudut maybe accurate things, but sometimes... like It's mixed in with so much shenanigans that you really don't know what she was privy to. She's clearly somebody ah suffering from untreated mental illness.
01:04:31
Speaker
um But even a tabloid journalist like Piers Morgan. then He doesn't present himself as a tabloid journalist.
01:04:45
Speaker
But we know that that is what he is. But he's become that. Yeah, he's become that. That even he should have vetted this and not allowed someone to just come on his show and but without him shutting it down. Right. A quick question is, what evidence do you have to back up any of these claims? Right. but Because you know she's not using the word alleged.
01:05:14
Speaker
She's just saying things. i've seen I've seen her. I've watched many a clip from her. Oh, it's entertaining as hell. It's entertaining. And do you question that some of the stuff she's saying might be a little true? And it's the same thing with that Cat Williams interview on Club Shayshay, where you're like, okay, some of this, did you really read that many books? No, but but if Diddy asked you to party, you gotta say no, like that's...
01:05:39
Speaker
Like I said, a broke clock is right twice a day. Right. That doesn't mean that when that clock, when you look at that clock on those times that it isn't right, yeah that you're going to take that as, oh, yeah, that's the right time. No, it isn't. You're not going to use that clock to tell time. It's still right twice a day. So there are people that say crazy stuff that 98% of it is completely asinine, but that 2% They might be right on, but that doesn't give them credibility in everything that they say. No, she completely lacks credibility. So it yeah, i i she should have never been on prime time television. No, and people comparing Jay-Z to Diddy, there has never been, and it's people who really just don't understand hip hop. They just don't understand the culture of hip hop. Jay-Z was not having parties like Diddy.
01:06:38
Speaker
And now, do I have my own issues with Jay-Z? Oh, yeah, no. Yes. I mean, he's a misogynist, and he probably has some stuff about him. The album, him and R. Kelly, Best of Both Worlds, should have never existed. No, it shouldn't have existed, especially when his partner and his closest friend was actually dating Aaliyah during the time of the recording. Yes, and you knew. And you knew. Everybody knew. Everybody knew.
01:07:04
Speaker
there so Everybody knew. So the fact that after that, after knowing all of this, you then, you didn't have to make that album. No, no, we weren't asking for it. I mean, it was a hot album.
01:07:15
Speaker
We weren't asking for it. You didn't have to make it. Sometimes. Nobody was saying, you know what, there should really be a Jay-Z and R. Kelly apples. Nobody asked for it. You didn't have to do it. Did anybody ask for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich? Or did somebody just one day decide to put peanut butter and jelly together on the sandwich and then found that it was delicious? Yeah, but peanuts ain't never married no underage girl. That's very, very true.
01:07:42
Speaker
So. I'm just bringing out an analogy that sometimes we won't ask for stuff and it's still great. Moving on. I don't piss my sister off, ladies and gentlemen. I know that look. That look is if you was around right now, punch her in your eye. I would. I'd at least thump something at your head.
01:08:04
Speaker
ah yeah My thing was i was, as I was telling my friend, who's not versed in hip-hop, right? She doesn't even really listen to hip-hop like that. And it was thinking that, well, this jaguar, right, was just unveiling the seedy business of other people's lives. And then say, well, it is kind of weird that everybody's always thinking Beyonce, and that's part of the ritual, is that they're so powerful that they invited things to Beyonce. Well, then you might want to thank Beyonce, because maybe, maybe you want to be associated with her in somehow, some way, and maybe do a song with her, because you know that song is going to be a hit. She's literally of the biggest artist right now. No, that's bad bunny.
01:08:45
Speaker
Bad Bunny is the biggest artist. um But but i but yeah yes, yes. And Taylor Swift got a little something to say to that too. But she's one of the biggest artists. As far as longevity, they're cano bar attack compared to her, they're relatively new. Yes, yes. As far as her longevity and just being on top for so long, like I don't know how a new Jay-Z album would fare, but a new Beyonce album, come on.
01:09:12
Speaker
Well, if he went back to his American american gangster rhymes, because that soundtrack was hot, but weird detouring. It's just, it bothers me that somebody like this gets a platform and people who don't really understand hip hop starts to believe this stuff.
01:09:29
Speaker
and then you got people on social media like, well, it's all true. She's breaking the door open and and telling us the truth. No, this is a person that we all know yeah and have known for a long time that she might say some stuff that then you'd be like, well, okay, I'll kind of see what you're saying. But the majority of what she says is idiocy. Yeah, and she has no access to the people that are involved in the things that she's saying. None.
01:09:58
Speaker
She might have taken a photo with Jay-Z back in 98. But that doesn't mean, who didn't? I could probably dig up one. I could probably dig up, I took a photo with Destiny's Child back in the day when when Miss Tina was still doing a they outfits. Like I probably could dig that up. Something from 106 and Park, I don't know. But the fact is she doesn't have access to the to the people or the places ah you know where these things are happening.
01:10:30
Speaker
no and And on that note, I'm done giving her any more attention. Ladies and gentlemen, the reason why I brought this up is because pay attention to the sources of which you're getting your information from. Right. If that's the first time you ever heard of Jaguar right in your life, then take that with a grain of salt. Then that take what she says with a grain of salt. Yeah. Now, if somebody like,
01:10:55
Speaker
somebody close to the city, if Kelly Rowland. Right, if Kelly Rowland come out to say that she's a member of Destiny's Child, Beyonce's right hand person, been the best friend. Yes, best friend for their entire lives. If she come out and say something. Then I'm like, oh, well.
01:11:10
Speaker
Or if Memphis Bleak, Jay-Z's right-hand man right says they were kids. If Memphis Bleak come out and say something. Then I'm like, oh. OK, that's the only. Not Jaguar right. Did I listen to a lot of the stuff Dame Dash was saying? Yeah, I did. Because he was there. He was there. He was privy to it. he was is he raised Maybe there's a little hostility and bitterness in there somewhere. There's definitely a lot of that. Yeah, so maybe some stuff is exaggerated, but I'm i'm listening to the person he's saying. Like, you know, if this if it's the people that are better been privy to it.
01:11:45
Speaker
Saying stuff. Then, okay. But yeah, no I can't even remember a Jaguar ride. I do know that I have listened to her music before. She is a great singer. I can't name one of her songs off the top of my head, but there was a neo soul movement in the early 2000s. They had this old show on BET. Yeah. So, you know, we got a VH1 shoot.
01:12:10
Speaker
soul or something like that. We even got that. like you you know um But yeah if you don't if if you don't never heard of this person before in your life, then go ahead and take that with a grain of salt. Right. But Jay, you just gave him some advice, but is there anything else you want to leave the people out here with today? Same thing that I'm going to say.
