00:01:21
Speaker
Oh well, that's because I was up at four o'clock and up until four o'clock in the morning. they That's abnormal for you. Yes. The day started with me working, right? So I did work. And then my bestie, is that she conned me into having dinner. Okay.
A Surprise Lasagna Dinner
00:01:39
Speaker
So it started with, we she was like, hey, why don't you come over? We can watch this Vince McMahon documentary. Oh, by the way, I want to get into that. But she was like, let's watch this Vince McMahon documentary and we'll have snacks. I was like, OK, cool. She was like, do you have any idea what you want to eat? I was like, I don't know. I've been kind of clean, but um'm I've been losing weight quicker than I thought I would. So I can have a ah really good cheat day. So whatever it is you want to prepare is cool with me. OK.
00:02:06
Speaker
She was like, OK. And then she was like, I was thinking about making lasagna. I was like, OK. I mean, lasagna used to be one of my favorite dishes. You used to love it. I mean, I do. I still love it. I just don't have it that often. But I was like, I thought it was supposed to be snacks. And she was like, we'll have a lasagna snack. And I was like, this ain't snacks. That's a full entree. That's a full course in and of itself.
00:02:31
Speaker
but i get there She's pulling out, she's got all these hors d'oeuvres and everything on the table, and she's made stuffed more mushrooms as an appetizer. Okay. Then we have lasagna, all good, all slamming by the way. yeah And then we have, she made homemade ice cream and cut peaches and soaked the peaches in red wine and had peaches and ice cream. And I was like, what type of flavor is it? The ice cream. She says a sweet cream. And I was like, you know what? You conned me into having a dinner. She was like, I did. Yes. That was yeah that was full courses. Yeah.
00:03:10
Speaker
done But it was a dope time, I had a really good time. ok Then I had another friend who's in from LA, and we've been trying to go back and forth about when we can link up.
Late-night Adventures and Drinking
00:03:20
Speaker
And I was just like, all right, you'll be down the street. You'll be downtown from my city. I'll meet you out. But I didn't get there until like 1130. And I was like, I just have one drink. I'm already asleep. You're right. I was like, I want to go to bed. But I was like, OK, I'll have a drink. Mind you, I'm pretty sure that I've already consumed half a bottle of tequila. Now, for everybody who's listening that doesn't understand black vernacular, like mind you,
00:03:50
Speaker
means the turn is coming, okay?
Understanding 'Mind You' in Black Vernacular
00:03:54
Speaker
The pivot, the plot twist is on the way. So go ahead. So mind you, I'd already had a half a bottle of tequila and then took a roadie on the way from my home, from my bestie's house to go be my homegirl down in my city that's a little bit further down from the road for me. Yeah. And ah the roadie was a heavy pour.
00:04:16
Speaker
Of course it was, yeah. I'm going to say that I had drank 60, 65% of a fifth. Okay. Okay. And then what was always supposed to be like one drink ended up being three more. Yeah.
00:04:30
Speaker
So I'm going to say I drank about 75% of a fifth. That's all? Yeah, it's a lot. It's considerable for one night, yeah. Yeah, no, for one day. For one, the entire day, correct. The entire day. ok oh Oh, because before I left the house to go to my besties, I poured me a little roadie. I had a drink and then poured me a little roadie. Yeah. So yeah, no, maybe even more. Maybe I drank a whole bottle yesterday.
00:04:56
Speaker
I don't know, close to it, close
Reflections on Alcohol and Sobriety
00:04:58
Speaker
to it. Goodness, goodness. And then went to bed at four o'clock in the morning and after eating what was, and we went to this diner and I got a country fried steak sub. That sounds disgusting. yeah Well, I love country fried steak, right? Okay. And normally you get country fried steak with no gravy and biscuits. Right. So they just put it on a sub without the gravy and it was actually delicious. I think you were drunk.
00:05:24
Speaker
Oh, I was beyond drunk. I was so drunk yes that I just said, I just need to drink water from here on out. I don't need nothing else. No more alcohol. Yeah, no more. well Yeah, I am starting a new journey. Well, I'm testing it out. I'm testing it out. OK, what's that? So as you and our audience is aware, I am an avid gardener. Wait a minute. For relaxation.
00:05:50
Speaker
Oh, OK. All right. Wait a minute. that What? that You're not a gardener for relaxation. I enjoy working in my garden. ah For relaxation. For relaxation. All right. OK. But I wonder, is it possibly interfering with my schoolwork, my gardening?
00:06:12
Speaker
you mightrate My so I'm gonna try to go sober next week. Yeah, the whole week. I don't know the last time you've been sober. Well.
00:06:29
Speaker
What's the last time that you've been sober? When was the last time New Edition performed with just with Bobby? and so
00:06:42
Speaker
you I don't know, Jay. I don't know. That's probably the last time. Well, no he he says it's probably an affair with my schoolwork. yeah no but That would make sense. No, I mean, it's just, you know, I have ADHD already. I'm i'm medicated. so But still, I feel like, you know, let's just see if there's difference in, you know, my focus.
00:07:07
Speaker
and ability to get things done. So I will, you guys, let's see what kind of show you're gonna get in next week. I might be irritable as hell. And I might get on a soapbox depending on what we're talking about, all because I will ah be sober. So we'll see. We'll see what happens with it.
00:07:26
Speaker
So soberness causes anger, is that what you're trying to say? I think because it's just like part of my ritual in the evening, just coming down from my day. um Let's be honest. And so not having that, you know I don't know, I don't know how it's gonna play out. Let's be honest, it's not solely in the evening.
00:07:49
Speaker
oh These days no But but back when I was gamefully employed That was it was obviously I don't you know, you know, I'm sober when I worked so i And for the show except for the after hours, so you guys really got to check that out Yeah, got
Patreon Promotion and Episode Preparation
00:08:11
Speaker
it. Once again patreon dot.com backslash unsolicited perspectives after I was uncensored, talking straight ish, $5 a month for after I was uncensored, $5 a month for talking straight ish, $9 a month for both shows. So go ahead and sign up. I really honestly don't know how this show's gonna go today. I don't know, because your energy, your battery is depleted.
00:08:39
Speaker
I'm gonna have to carry this sucker. And, you know, I don't know if I'm equipped for that because perceptions i was I was doing my homework right before the show. And not prepping for the show. Yeah. let's Let's be honest to the audience. Okay. Typically I have a rundown of what we're going to be talking about on the show. The show is loosely structured. It's structured, but I leave some room for for our so in conversation, yes
00:09:10
Speaker
yeah for our unsolicited perspective. Exactly. I did not do a rundown for today. We have a loose idea of what we're going to do for this show. Pretty loose. You forgot about the show completely. Completely. This does not make sense to me. We filmed the show to say, I texted you yesterday yeah to ask you, what do you want to talk about? And I wake up.
00:09:36
Speaker
in the morning and I'm like, all right, what do I have today? I want to go to grocery store. I got to film the show. Like I, I'm running down my day in my head and still, boy, that time blindness, it gets away from you. And I'm like, I have a show to film right now. keep So if I didn't take, if I didn't call you or text you, I don't know which one you saw first.
00:09:58
Speaker
i that on relate I
Explaining Time Blindness
00:10:00
Speaker
saw the text first. Yeah, because normally you kind of a little late and I was like, all right, you might be handling Roscoe or something like that. Well, yeah this but yeah. But then you got past that five minute mark where I didn't even hear from you. I was like, yeah hey, you ready? And then you didn't respond back. And I didn't even see Reed on there. And I was like, let me FaceTime. And and i i was i was getting that I was getting it together. But yeah, didn no, ah it's time blindness. I completely lose track of time.
00:10:28
Speaker
Completely abstract, but so what is top like like how does that happen? You explain people what the time blindness is those that don't understand it. I don't know what it is. So time blindness essentially what it is is I and Have a hard time distinguishing how long things should take So I might think, oh, I got five minutes till I have to leave. I can jump in the shower and get dressed and make it. and then i And by the time I've run down in my head what to do in that five minutes, 15 minutes have passed.
00:11:07
Speaker
but And I'm like, well damn. So you'll see people with time blindness are often late, have difficult difficulty with time management, things like that. But it's, yeah, you just, you don't, or you you just think you have more time and you don't.
00:11:23
Speaker
Or you think you don't have a lot of time, but you really do. like it time is just So one of the ways to combat it is I have clocks. and have Not in every room, but I have clocks in most of the rooms that I'm in. So I can always glance up and see what time it is and realize, oh, you late for this, or you forgot about this. or I did not have them for the show today, so I do apologize for that, but. Wow, that that must be complicated. Because you know me, I'm very regimented. Like, I wake up in the morning, and my whole day is mapped out by the half hour. Yeah.
00:12:07
Speaker
And I'm like, I'm going to do this. I'm going to do this. I need to do this at this particular time. And I hate it when even the slightest thing is thrown off that throws off my entire day. Yeah. So that's weird. But then again, you said I'm meticulous. And I never thought that I was that. And I was surprised that you looked shocked when I said you're meticulous. Yeah, I never thought of myself as meticulous.
00:12:29
Speaker
That's just never been something I've ever thought about. I think if somebody gives you a task, you're going to run down the list, make sure everything's checked off and the task is completed. Or you're going to find who you have to blame. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. We talked about how fine people to blame. Listen, if you couldn't get a task completed, it was not because of you. So you're like, OK, somebody didn't pull their weight.
00:12:59
Speaker
well ah Was I wrong? No, typically you were not wrong. so but I'm just telling you, this is what I have observed. Wow. Yeah, yeah but you're pretty meticulous. that's why That's why I like ah with the Airbnb when you all came and visited, I was like, I know you'll read that entire instruction list and you'll make sure that it's done.
00:13:24
Speaker
Okay, I just never thought of myself like that, but it is out before I do something which is weird You know why because I remember my dad our dad used to get agitated with me anytime I was younger and I would buy a video game I would never read the instruction manual. I would just jump into playing a game. Yeah, and he's like don't you want to know how to play? I'll figure it out I think but I guess something changed as I got older and Yeah, because before that's true, you would try to put something together. You wouldn't read the directions. But no, I think as you got older, you started getting more and more meticulous. And I was like, I bet you he read that instruction email several times. And I knew you did. OK, so I got to say something about that Airbnb.
00:14:10
Speaker
So before I left, because I wasn't the last one to leave, before I left the house, yeah there was a specific way that they wanted the towels and the washcloths to be placed. They wanted it to be placed in the middle, but in the upstairs, in the regular bathroom, but the regular hallway bathroom. They said put it in the pile on the floor in the regular hallway bathroom. So I had gathered the towels that was downstairs in the in the basement bathroom, okay that because the people that were staying down there,
00:14:39
Speaker
They just left towels. So I was like, OK, let me gather these. Oh, you didn't take out the trash. Let me let
Anxiety and Meticulousness
00:14:45
Speaker
me gather and take out the trash. And then I told my goddaughter and our cousin before they left, hey, I've already put the towels right outside the bathroom because I know you guys are going to be using the bathroom. Just put the towels and everything on the floor before you leave this bathroom. Yes.
00:15:03
Speaker
What? My goddaughter. Come after, because I had to do some work. After I finished work, I said, yeah, I put all the towels and everything downstairs in the bathroom. I said, no. That's not what I said. No. I literally just put them in the hallway right outside the bathroom. So low key, I was real nervous about that.
00:15:23
Speaker
I bet you that kept you up. But that's not how meticulous you are. Later, after a couple of days, I asked you and I was like, hey, have you heard it? Did you remember me doing that? Yes, I'm sure it was fine. No, I mean, obviously it was fine because you haven't. I haven't heard nothing now, but that's the reason why I asked her. I was like, hey, you know, have you heard anything about something cool? I know that's weighing on your spirit.
00:15:53
Speaker
No, not once you said that you hadn't heard everything, and everything was all good. But before that, you were just, there was dread surrounding the fact that the towels were in the wrong bathroom. I was on the plane drinking, just biting my nails. It's like, it's all because the instructions said, put up in the upstairs bathroom in the main hallway. Yeah. Leave them there. That's what it said. I put towels right outside that bathroom, and before I left,
00:16:21
Speaker
I said, just put them in this bathroom. Yeah. I gathered them all right here. All you got to do is put them in there. You took them back downstairs. I didn't trip. Yeah. I didn't trip. You tripped internally. Oh, internally. I was like, I can't believe you can't file simple damn new persons.
00:16:45
Speaker
It's just simple damn directions. That's it. Just put them in this bathroom. It's right outside the hallway. OK, you're right. I am meticulous because I can't stand when people don't follow. It seems simple to me. The directions just seem simple. And you say somebody give you a task and you do everything on the task. Yes.
00:17:07
Speaker
who understand how that is is meticulous. That's just completing the task. ah But I think most people would read the email once, maybe skim it a second time. How many times did you read the destruction email? I read it, I don't know. like twice the first time I opened it. just and okay well you know just Twice with the first time you opened it. So you opened it multiple times but and each time i perhaps read it multiple times. So I wouldn't say that maybe I've read it or skimmed through it 45 times.
00:17:48
Speaker
Four, two, five, not 45, four, two, five times. Yeah, that's a lot. and well and That's meticulous. and I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't anything that I missed. do You don't think that happened like after the second or third time reading it? that Hey, sometimes I was drinking a lot that weekend. I was in a constant state of being drunk. So I was like, I was. I'd wake up, I work out, immediately start drinking, making some dino nuggets and tater tots and drink. yeah So I was drinking the entire time. yeah So I was like, you know when I'm drinking, I tend to forget things.
00:18:25
Speaker
OK. Just checking to make sure. And then you had to reread it in the morning when you woke up before I left to make sure that I knew everything to do. And then read it one last time just to check off to make sure I did everything that I thought I needed to be taken. Let me ask you a question. How many times do you hit the lock key fob when you're walking away from your car? I don't have a car. But you get what I'm saying. Do you go poo-poo?
00:18:54
Speaker
even though you laughed at the first time? Yeah. Oh, the worst is, the worst is if I think I didn't do something. You know how many times, once again, because I've been drinking, you know how many times I've taken Benadryl at night, but a couple of times by accident because I forgot that I did it but not sure that if I did it so I'm like well I have to take my Benadryl and then the next morning I wake up barely yeah struggling yes because I it took three Benadryls. I'm like almost OD'd on Benadryl. Yeah you gotta get I don't want to be that old.
00:19:34
Speaker
Look. Well, that's because you like 50-11 pills. Okay. So true that makes it. Then I use that pill because I got to know if I took my medicine already. You can't duplicate this stuff.
00:19:49
Speaker
Look, maybe I got an issue. Maybe I got a little bit of a compulsive disorder or something like that. because they happened But things have to be a certain way, and I have to do things a certain time, and I'm constantly washing my hands. Like, maybe I have a disorder. I don't know. It's called anxiety. Welcome to the club. ah Well, OK. I got that. I got that in spades. Yeah. All right. My eye is starting to twitch, which is telling me it's time to switch to a new segment. I'm startled.
00:20:19
Speaker
lets do it I think I can even say the show is going to go off the rails, because it was never on it. ah But we're going to just see what's what happens here. Yeah, we're going to see what happens. But next up, we're going to talk about racism in America. Hooray. Why not say that?
00:20:43
Speaker
All right, time to get serious. i the plate i When I say it's time to get serious. But it's time to get serious, because these these things were a we we're about to talk about is no laughing matter if I can get the words out. Right. So I already talked about this on the the Friday show that was released, but I wanted to get your perspective on it. So the first thing is Clay Higgins.
Blatant Racism in Politics
00:21:10
Speaker
Clay Higgins, a Republican for the House of Representatives from the state of Louisiana.
00:21:15
Speaker
um posted something on Twitter this week. x ah I'm going to say this is X because I said Twitter is no longer Twitter. X is now the white supremacist social media platform. for Yes. yeah So he said, l LOL, these Haitians are wild, eating pets, voodoo, nasty country in the western hym nastiest country in the Western Hemisphere, colts.
00:21:37
Speaker
slapstick, gangsters, but but damned if they don't feel all sophisticated now, filing charges against our president and BP. All these thugs better get their mind right and their ass out of our country before January 20th. He even doubled down on CNN right after this, saying that he you know what he said was true and he doesn't regret anything. Blatant, straight out, racism.
00:22:01
Speaker
racist comment, but I already said what I had to say about it on the previous show. Jay, what did you think about all of this? Yeah, so this tweet, or what do you call it now that it's X?
00:22:15
Speaker
Yeah, I don't know what you were saying there. I think they're still called tweets. But anyway, it came on the heels of the national nonprofit organization called Haitian Bridge Alliance announcing that they are seeking criminal charges against former President Donald Trump. And Ohio Senator, I mean, you... literally Springfield's the town you represent, J.D. Vance, accusing them of making false alarms, aggravated menace, and telecommunications harassment. So, it's coming on the heels of that. And his tweet was giving very much like minstrel, oh, these highfalutin' Negroes. You know, like, it was given that, like, it was even written like that? Like, what's a slapstick gangster?
00:23:04
Speaker
Like, what is that even? What? I don't leave i i don't even know. well I don't know what a slapstick gangster is. I don't know. Like. Is that a gangster that's funny? I have no idea. Like, is it? Is that 56?
00:23:17
Speaker
It gives me like the three Stooges pretending to be gangsters. Okay. I don't know what that means, but it I'm just like wondering what era this man is from. Like obviously this level of racism, he's from, you know, something like pre-Civil Rights Movement era. is the amount He's older. I would say that he's probably in his, he's got gray hair. So he's probably in his late fifties, early sixties.
00:23:45
Speaker
Oh, he's 63. No, I mean, Nami, his thinking. Oh, yes, yes, yes. And if you look at him, he looks like he speaks this way. No, he... I just had to pull a picture up and I said, yep, that that tracks. But be damned if they don't feel all sophisticated now. Like it's like, I can't, I would be honest, I was so confused by the tweet.
00:24:13
Speaker
that I couldn't even register, like, getting angry at the racism because I'm just wondering, like, who wrote this? Like, who? I just want to be serious, and you crack at jokes because you throw off the wall crazy. Not even good. Oh, you slapstick gangsters, you? Like, it's not even good racism. Like, it's not even...
00:24:40
Speaker
Does that make sense? Like, I couldn't get... I was so confused by it, I couldn't get past the confusion to get upset about the racism. You yearned for the days where racist was real racist. Right. And you knew exactly what they wanted to say and how they wanted to say it. Right. Like, this guy was like, what? He called him the nastiest country in the Western Hemisphere. Now you're so sophisticated. Like, what?
00:25:08
Speaker
And they keep spreading this evil lie about eating pets. Like they keep, even though it's been kind of, it's been disproven. The person that originally said it. The person that originally claimed that this happened to them, found their cat in the basement a couple of days later. It was like, oh yeah, I found my cat in the basement. Sorry about that. Yeah.
00:25:31
Speaker
But the fact that you, first of all, let's unpack the fact that she immediately blamed her Haitian neighbors for taking her cat. That was just in the basement. That cat was running from you. Probably. And we see why. um Crazy. ah he Did you read the part where he doubled down on it?
Freedom of Speech vs. Consequences
00:25:55
Speaker
I know he doubled, kind of doubled down on it in CNN, but I don't, I don't, I didn't read it. I read, blurbs say he doubled down. He said, he said, quote, I can put up another controversial post tomorrow if you want me to. I mean, we do have freedom of speech. You don't have freedom from consequences. I'm going to tell you that. That's my own insert. Clay Higgins did not say that. That's me speaking. That's Johnna right now. You do not have freedom from consequences, sir. And you,
00:26:23
Speaker
and Sir, okay. What consequences are you going to face? What consequences are repercussions? but Honestly, what consequences are repercussions? Oh, it all in real life or in my mind? In real life, none. None. Because he goes on to say, I'll say what I want. It's not a big deal to me. It's like something stuck on the bottom of my boot. Just scrape it off and move on with my life.
00:26:48
Speaker
Yeah, see, this is, once again, the reason why I wish I had that superpower. That insane superpower, which, again, i I have a lot of issues with, but go pi continue. you Yeah, if if I had my superpower, my glow hands, I could smack him in the face and smack some sense into him. I mean, that's what he needs. people that People that feel so emboldened to say these derogatory and disgusting things.
00:27:16
Speaker
You know what they just honestly need is a good open hand slap to the face. Yeah. I mean, that's, that's sometimes that people say violence doesn't solve anything. The hell it doesn't. Violence solves a lot of things. A lot of the time. Yeah. That's like the people who say money don't buy happiness. You ever had some?
00:27:43
Speaker
it's too
00:27:50
Speaker
yes ever so Let me tell you, how happy do you get when you're five dollars in your pocket? You didn't know you had it. How happy do I get? who I hate i hate it opening up the app, to my banking app, to check my account. I just be like, I know it's not going to be what I think it's going to be. Because sometimes you think you have more money than you do when you check your account. I'm like, where'd it go? What happened? But on the rare occasions, you checked your account, and you got more money than you thought you did. And you're like, oh, I'm feeling good.
00:28:23
Speaker
You would choose to ignore the fact that there is a bill pending out there. i do That's about your account in about two to three days. Don't you go spending that There's more something. Every time I go spending that money and be like, damn it, forget about that. Why do I have so many bills? All right, look, we detour. We're talking about Clay Higgins and my glow hands. I hate to be able to smack people.
00:28:50
Speaker
And he needs a good smacking. Yeah. He doesn't care. he doesn't care Is anything going to happen to him? No. um And the very documented, very here, very much here, legally Haitian community in Springfield is suffering the consequences, honestly, the community at large of Springfield is suffering the consequences of these lies. Yeah.
00:29:16
Speaker
Their lies. Well, you know, and I've constantly said it and and I was hanging out with people and I got on my soapbox yesterday and my friends from LA was like, what are you doing tomorrow for the games? And I was like, i'm I'm going to watch the games. They're going to be on. But you know, I don't really like pay attention to sports anymore. She was like, well, what are you really into?
00:29:38
Speaker
the world and everything that's going on. She was like, yeah, I could tell from a lot of the conversations that we're having. I was like, I'm sorry. I don't mean to be on my soapbox, but I feel like kind of like the task situation, right? Like ah okay I can't comprehend when you get a task while you don't go down the list and complete everything that's a part of that test. I can't understand that. So I can't understand how people aren't aware of what's going on, how Common sense doesn't tell you, well, this doesn't sound right, and that doesn't sound right. This sounds more plausible. and that' out i like I can't understand it. yeah so But that's a blind spot that I have where like I can't understand how people don't understand what I think is just simple.
00:30:25
Speaker
Right. And you know what I mean? To me, it's just like, this is just simple. This isn't really that complicated. This is two plus two, it becomes four. Yeah. Well, it does it equal four? Yeah,
Social Media Echo Chambers
00:30:35
Speaker
always has. so Yeah. So when somebody says this racist stuff, what is it racist? but Yeah. Pretty racist. is What about it do you think is not racist? Right. But what is the consequence for that?
00:30:48
Speaker
Nothing. yeah and that's and and And so these people like that are emboldened. And that's the reason why I want to have my glow hands to be able to go around smacking stupid people. Yeah. I mean, I get that you are talking about things that are like pretty clear, like racism. You're talking about sexism. But people's When you're looking for confirmation of your own biases, it's easy to reject the truth even though it's right in front of you. so And then people get into, I mean, one of the biggest problems with the internet are the echo chambers. And so, your algorithm pushing all of the things that you already would typically click on and it's now feeding that to you over and over again. And so you end up in this echo chamber and so then you think, well, he's done such and such for Louisiana. Not that I know that Clay Higgins has done anything for anybody but but himself, but you can overlook the BS because
00:32:01
Speaker
That's not even, a lot of times that's not even registering in your echo chamber. Do you have, because I know your echo chamber. I know your echo chamber. Do you, because mine is not quite as similar, but damn close. Do you ever find yourself when you're on social media and you're being bombarded by things that are confirming what you believe? Do you ever stop yourself and be like, wait a minute, hold up.
00:32:30
Speaker
Yeah, i'm um this is boosting my ego a little too much. Yeah, i I'm fully aware that my algorithm is set up to confirm all of my biases. I'm 100% aware of that. And to the point where I get fatigue,
00:32:48
Speaker
o Because I'm constantly seeing all of the issues that I care about over and over and over again. And so you can get a little bit of fatigue. So I know i know that sometimes I have to just turn it off and step away for a little while. So people might want to consider that. when you Especially when you start going down these rabbit holes and it's starting to affect your relationships, like your beliefs are starting to affect your relationships with your friends and your family. like start to think about, okay, why am I fighting so hard for this one thing or for this one candidate to the detriment of the relationships around me? Well, because I say sometimes people can agree to disagree.
00:33:37
Speaker
if it's trivial, but you can't agree to disagree on- We can't agree to disagree on pizza toppings, not on whether or not I should have bodily autonomy. See, and so that's where I think people are getting this disagreement. And typically from my conversations of people who want to distance themselves from racist rhetoric from particular candidates and say, well, you know, I just vote along certain issues. And I say certain issues that are important to me. And then I say to them, are your issues so important to you that you would make it detrimental to somebody else? And the example that I give is, OK, so you're walking down the street. I mean, but the answer is yes.
00:34:22
Speaker
Well, okay, so so i give them I give them a scenario. Okay, so you're walking down the street and you see somebody, a woman, getting ready to be attacked, right? Do you walk past or do you say something? Almost everybody says, well, I would say something or do something. Okay, okay. Now in this scenario,
00:34:43
Speaker
Same situation, you're walking past a woman, you're seeing a woman about to be attacked, but you're late to work. You've already been written up several times. If you're late again, you'll be fired. What do you do then?
00:34:56
Speaker
And then everybody has to stop, I think. And so this is the scenario that I'm trying to give people. That's essentially what you're doing in this political race. If you're saying, well, the economy is important, well, one, you don't understand the economy. That's first and foremost. You don't understand what the hell is going on. Yeah, the tariffs, guys, they're inflationary.
00:35:18
Speaker
so yeah doubt People don't understand. Not a good idea, not a good idea. People don't understand the how Yeah. And in the next time somebody somebody says, you know, inflation is high. Absolutely right. Economy is good. Global inflation is up. It's not just ours. There was a pandemic.
00:35:34
Speaker
Right. So like when I tell people, I give people that scenario, this is that these are this correlates. You're saying something about the economy. And yeah, the economy is important. Your job is important in that scenario. But how would you feel in your heart if you ignore that person you read later that she was killed and you could have helped, but you didn't want to lose your job in the process?
00:36:01
Speaker
i think is I think it's not the same. And I'll tell you why. Because that person is being attacked right in front of them. No, they're walking. They're walking. They see it in the distance. But you see you see it. okay you right yeah It's a part of your physical reality. Whereas when people just get in that voting booth, I or women like me or people of color, like like we're not in their physical reality. And it's much easier to ignore something that's not directly impacting you as like, I'm seeing it in front of me. I know i have my job is important, but I'm seeing this right in front of me. And I have to make a split set as opposed to I'm in the voting booth. Those people don't exist to me right now. but I can vote.
00:36:55
Speaker
I completely agree. But that's the reason why I give that scenario. Because they're blinded to the fact of how easily them not trying to focus in on the entire picture and this one thing that they could be harming people. And that's the reason why I give them that scenario because they can't see it. Because they go into that voting book at at booth and they're just in that one issue. And so I said, this isn't an agree to disagree situation. people are good Springfield, Ohio has far right white supremacist groups marching in that city right now. Yeah. They've been on several lockdowns due to bomb threats. Schools. Kids can't get to school, can't go to school because of these threats. This is a real issue and it's all built on a lie. Yeah. It's a lie.
00:37:48
Speaker
J.D. Vance said, create if I have to create a story, I will. And that's exactly what he did. He made it up. He knew it was made up because he positive someone in their campaign was like, that meme or whatever that police report, it's not real or something. And he chose to go with it anyway. And of course, Trump regurgitates whatever he hears. Yeah.
00:38:18
Speaker
And in front of how many millions of people tuned in to the debate? You see, the 16 or 60. I can't remember how many. That's a big difference. It's a big difference, but 16 or 60 sound very similar. They do. They do. It was a lot of millions of people who tuned into that debate. Okay, there you go. And he went on and okay they incredulously spread a lie, harmed people, or and put people in harms. Where's Clay? Hey, this is Chris. Looks like the type of person who says stuff like this a lot. Looks like he's not going to stop, so I'm not going to pay him much attention. That's all Louisianians too, or however you say that.
00:39:08
Speaker
And all right now, Heisha. Don't be like J.D. Pan's creating a whole other, fits how hate he said Heisha, don't be like J.D. and a whole other group of people. i was from ru It's just such a joke. The entire campaign was such a joke. But um and yeah, it's up to y'all to get this person out. right Chances are you're probably not going to see an area of Louisiana that is fine with whatever he's yeah talking about. There's a real world consequence.
00:39:46
Speaker
to people spreading these racist lies about groups of people, right? And here's a prime example of it. i Once again, this is something I talked about and I want to get your perspective on it. A student has left Gettysburg College after a racial slur was carved in to his swimming teammate.
Racism and Brutality in America
00:40:08
Speaker
So white guy, black guy at a party, swimming, they're both part of the swimming team. Supposedly the article said that they were friends, carved the inward, white guy carved the inward into the black guy's chest at Gettysburg College. This happened, what's crazy is it happened earlier this month and it just hit the news wire like this week. yeah So when people say
00:40:29
Speaker
this political this racist political rheic rhetoric doesn't really have you know consequences, doesn't affect anything. Here's a prime example of somebody literally, this isn't like Clay Higgins preaching 1960s racism. yeah This is 1600, 1700.
00:40:52
Speaker
brutal slavery type of but action. You will carve the N word into my chest using a box cutter. Yeah, a box cutter. Like I wanted to like be clear, like when we say carved, he used a box cutter. A box cutter.
00:41:10
Speaker
So I just wanted to get your thoughts on that because Yeah, racism in America. Whoo. Yeah, it's ugly. The fact that this story, I think, is just not getting as much media attention is really disgusting, but also telling. Yeah, it's ugly out here. I mean, I really don't i really don't know. I feel like
00:41:39
Speaker
Every news cycle, there's a story of how somebody black in this country is being brutalized in some way. I would say not even just black. Anybody of color. Yeah. Anybody of color or women. Yeah, but there's, i yeah, I mean, obviously I agree with that, but there's a particular heinousness to anti-black racism in this country.
00:42:09
Speaker
I mean, we we just had the execution of Marcellus Williams. I don't know if you ever read about that, but... I saw it, and I was just like, this is so, so wrong to say. But it's one of those words I was just trying to say. It's something. It's also, let's say, perspectives with Bruce Anthony. So I'm just gonna give you all all the wrong, the wrong reel. I was like, yeah, that sounds about right.
00:42:36
Speaker
man that everybody tried to save, that said, you know, it seems like he could be innocent. Let's do a stay of execution. There's definitely a reasonable doubt. Yeah, let's do a stay of execution. And white people in power said, no, we're going to kill this black man. I mean, it wasn't something that I was surprised about. And I saw this outpouring of support, but I remember Tookie Williams.
00:43:01
Speaker
right, it got executed. And so I was like, and it was the same type of outpouring. It's like, yeah, okay. and I'm not saying it's almost gotten to the point where I'm desensitized to this. Yeah, there's a level of that of a just Not desensitized because it hurts every time, but there's cynicism about it. Well, there's a callus. There's a callus that's developed. Yeah, there's a callus that's developed. When we got whoop-ins back in the day, or if you bruise your leg or something like that, maybe you keep hitting your leg or doing something. It gets to a point where that skin gets so hardened that
00:43:42
Speaker
the the first time you hit it was very painful, but repeatedly it gets hard and to the point where it's not as painful as it used to be. Each time it gets less and less painful. So there's, I'm not saying it isn't painful, it's just, there's this callous yeah now. It's like, like even this, this the Gettysburg College thing, I should be way more outraged yeah than I actually am. Cause it's just so absurd. Yeah.
00:44:08
Speaker
But at the same time, I'm like, yeah if you're a historian and you know what people used to do, they used to have lynchings in our parents' lifetime, right? And they used to have parties. And kids used to be out there. like yeah Think about the the deep the inhumane way that you must look at a person to hang them, kill them, have a party, pictures, everybody's smiling, and kids be there.
00:44:35
Speaker
yeah So, yeah, there's a- To pack a picnic for it. Yeah. Look, I'm cold hearted in a lot of ways, but I couldn't eat getting somebody, seeing somebody getting killed. No. And like just the nature of something like that. We wouldn't even do that to animals. Yeah. Like we wouldn't do that to animals. When we slaughtered pigs and all that stuff, we don't kill them alive.
00:45:03
Speaker
kill him alive. That made no sense. We don't, we don't like cut them up a lot. We're going to cut that out. and No, I'm going to leave that in. No, and they would stick that out.
00:45:16
Speaker
one how well don They don't kill them. oh that's
00:45:26
Speaker
um loads ah to you Completely derail a very serious point, but because we're axles, we're going to laugh about this for a couple of seconds, y'all. Sorry.
00:45:41
Speaker
Kill them alive. They don't kill them alive. They kill them dead. They kill them alive like they've never killed anybody alive ever before in life, OK? They kill them alive? What I meant to say, we don't butcher animals alive. We put them down first and then butcher them. Yes. Right? Yes. Yes.
00:46:05
Speaker
We weren't doing that. They're literally hanging people yeah and butchering them. yeah Because remember, a lot of times they would castrate these men that they hung. yeah And so, yes, I've developed a callous so they killed another black man with an execution.
00:46:22
Speaker
Yeah, it's been happening in this country since its foundation. I'm sad for it. So I didn't even research the story. Yeah. It's a travesty. I mean, honestly, yeah, I agree with you that there's a there's a callus there. Also, you know, things like Clay Higgins is just not
00:46:50
Speaker
frightening. There are real consequences, move to hit but I think like when i when I read the tweet, I was like, this is this is the dumbest thing I've ever read. If that was supposed to be intimidating, you didn't You missed the mark, but really it wasn't for us. It was for people who agree with him and who are willing to call in bomb threats and things on their behalf. So it's always concerning and and frankly frightening from that perspective, but like taking it on his face, like do I feel personally offended by his tweet? It was so dumb. I couldn't even get to that point. Okay.
00:47:34
Speaker
I could dig it. It was so dumb, I couldn't even get to that point. The incident at Gettysburg College is enraging though, however, because that- It should be even more enraged. It kind of felt like we have the proper enraged level. Yeah.
00:47:51
Speaker
as a country. I don't think that i don't yes that we have that. Well, that was the brilliance of the civil rights movement, right? To have it be televised. So you see the brutality televised. So and now it's in your living room. And so the fact that this story has not gotten national attention.
00:48:14
Speaker
Okay. Yeah. What's the motive behind that? Well, you don't want to you don't want people to have to confront Yeah, you'll you'll put Clay Higgins on MSNBC and and all of that, but you don't want people to actually confront the true brutality of racism. oh That's real. That's real. Well, speaking of college, moving off this Gettysburg College thing yeah and and the killing them alive, let's let's go to- They don't kill them alive. They don't. They do not do.
00:48:51
Speaker
let We're going to talk about us and what we learned in college next.
00:49:05
Speaker
Jay, I had an interesting conversation last night with my friend when we was drinking and the ah very much tequilas that I had.
College Influence on Social Views
00:49:15
Speaker
She went to UCLA. Of course, I went and you and I are both got our degrees from the University of Maryland. She's from here to DMV area. And she now works in California near the San Fernando Valley. She says it's very much Trump country. And she says that a lot of people feel like colleges are these liberal kind of um havens.
00:49:44
Speaker
which I'm not gonna say that it isn't, but that going to college turns you into this liberal and that's now a bad thing. Like going to college is now a bad thing. She talked about one of her customers who a few years ago, five, 10, 15 years ago, was so excited about his children being smart and going to go to good colleges. Now, he doesn't want them to go to college at all because he doesn't want them to become liberal.
00:50:14
Speaker
right And I was thinking to myself, well, okay, what's the correlation? Why are so many college campuses and towns? Like when I went to go visit Raleigh, North Carolina, you're surrounded by Trump country, but Raleigh, North Carolina, because it's a college town, tends to be liberal. So why is that? And I came to the realization that when you get more information,
00:50:40
Speaker
and you learn about stuff and you're out of your bubble and you're around people from different walks of life in different areas, yes you develop a mentality that's a little bit more inclusive, a little bit more. You can still segregate yourself in college. For sure, yes.
00:50:58
Speaker
But you're you're forced to be in classes with people that you didn't grow up with that weren't from your hometown. You don't have the same values of you sometimes. Sometimes they do. Sometimes they differ in a little bit. But you learn about people. I think the fascinating thing about us and is the fact that we lived in Lynchburg, Virginia for so long, yes and we moved to the DC area, and that was a complete shell shock, because it was a complete culture shock. Culture shock. Yeah, culture shock for sure. And we got introduced to so much, and we were like, I kind of like this. this Yeah.
00:51:32
Speaker
Everything was literally black and white in Lynchburg and there's all this color when you move to DC, both literally and figuratively. There's just this color and there's just it's wide eyes, the possibilities of just new people and learning new things. So yes, when you kind of learn,
00:51:51
Speaker
And then you learn to critically think in college. Because you don't learn to critically think in high school or middle school. You're regurgitating facts that's being given to you. But in college, you have to read, comprehend, and critically think. These are skills that you learn in college. Yeah. And when people do those type of things, they become a little bit more oo open to new possibilities.
00:52:20
Speaker
So I just thought that that was you know interesting as me and her were just talking about that. And I was like, yeah. yeah you just I think you're right. I think you're 100% right. That's what college does. But you also have to understand there's another layer to it. okay i um And that's media influence. who Conservative media and right wing media.
00:52:45
Speaker
also lambass college educations as yeah or or college campuses, universities as being these bastion of the liberalism, right? They're also promoting that idea because why? Trump doesn't get as many college educated votes. No. And what's crazy is these commentators, what do they all have?
00:53:09
Speaker
Ivy League degrees a lot of them. yeah think That's what's crazy. j d fan ah Did Trump go to Ivy League? I know he went to work. Yeah, I mean the Wardeners Ivy League. Yeah, so yeah. Ivy League degrees. and if If you want about Coastal Elite.
00:53:34
Speaker
and it It's an Ivy League degree. Now we went to a public Ivy. ah Those exist people. and Is that what you want to call the University of Maryland? No, it really is that. The University of Maryland is a public Ivy school? Yeah. Wait a minute. that I didn't think that was a real thing. No, it is a real thing. I did not know it was a real thing either until I looked it up. It very much is.
00:54:00
Speaker
ah So, okay, now what constitutes a public ivy? Well, let's look it up. Hey, ladies and gentlemen, this is a segment we call learning.
00:54:15
Speaker
yeah but For we Google things. We Google things and we learn. This is literally something that we would do if we weren't filming the show. We Google a lot. Google is our best friend.
00:54:28
Speaker
Yes, so the term public IVs was coined in 1985 and it refers to public US universities that offer an Ivy League-like educational experience. Wow.
00:54:40
Speaker
I mean, I knew mary Maryland was tough to get into, and what are the the president at the University of Maryland, when I was going there, I don't know if he was still the president when you were going there, he came from California, and he specifically said he wanted to make, I think he came from Cal, and he wanted to make Maryland the Cal Berkeley of the East Coast.
00:55:01
Speaker
And so they kept racing the standards to get into school to the point where it was like dumb people who used to go to Maryland couldn't go to Maryland anymore. And that's also when you stop seeing people riding on campus because these nerds that was coming into the University of Maryland didn't want to have no fun. Kid, not just kidding.
00:55:18
Speaker
Well, actually, I just Googled it and Google has their lovely new AI feature ah that gives you the answer right there. UMD is not officially considered a public IV, but it is a public research university with a high quality education and strong academic reputation. so I just was corrected myself on air, but whatever. We went to a really great school and everybody shut up. Great school and we wanted education and we learned how to research. But yeah, um keeping a certain segment of the population uneducated, I mean, that's the base. That's the base. So it's it and when we say uneducated, that doesn't mean not smart. Uneducated is not inherently a negative term.
00:56:08
Speaker
No, uneducated, I'm just saying. Your education stopped at high school? Yeah. You didn't go to college? You didn't go to college. You didn't go to higher education. What do they call it? Second level education or higher education? Higher education, yeah. Don't they call it secondary education as well though? Like when you fill out an application, they say,
00:56:30
Speaker
Okay, maybe not, I'm tripping. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know either. Public school education, ladies and gentlemen, right here, found dumb as hell. No, word found dumb as hell is killing them alive. Yeah, that's funny. Wow, this has been a great show. I don't know, it has been deathly. We laughed a lot. But yeah, I think, I don't think college is for everybody, I'm 100%. And that's somebody who's currently a student.
00:56:59
Speaker
telling, I don't think it's for everybody. would So the to me, there's nothing wrong with not having higher education, like, because it's not for everybody. and the There's nothing wrong with it. There's nothing wrong with it. But I do feel like everybody should at least go for a semester a year. Like, go away. Like, get out of your town and go and go to a place, even if it's like a trade school that's a distance away. i was Why I got main universities, is the pride still a thing? The pride is not a thing. It is not. is I used to be serious about success. Long, long defunct. No, I think that um
00:57:41
Speaker
I think people should never stop learning. Mm-hmm. Whatever your craft or your trade or whatever, I don't think people should never stop learning. I don't think you should ever stop wanting to improve your mind, and that's however you do it. um If that's, you know, working with your hands, if it's making sure you read the paper every morning, it's staying up on current events or reading non-fiction, but whatever it is. I don't care.
00:58:08
Speaker
You know, just I think you should always be continuously learning. But as college for everybody to know, I didn't want to go, to be honest. I didn't. I did not want to go. It was a requirement, though, in our house. But it wasn't, though. It was never a requirement. I felt like we were told we had to go. No, it was a, okay, maybe it was a quiet requirement, but there was nothing explicitly said, you have to go, it was just kind of expected. Yes, that was, I'll say it was expected, but I did learn a lot about myself. It did help shape a lot of my political beliefs and my views on society because I was just exposed. Did it help shape your political beliefs or your social beliefs?
00:59:02
Speaker
It helped shape my political beliefs because before before college, i did not I was not invested in... I mean, I couldn't vote before college, so I was not invested in politics whatsoever. It wasn't until, I believe, I took a journalism course.
00:59:20
Speaker
That'll do it. That'll do it. And I started learning more about about social systems and then how they intersect and work simultaneously with political systems and how the whole thing is intertwined. um The education, our economy, or social structures, ah politics, the judiciary, like everything is all intertwined. That's where I learned that.
00:59:45
Speaker
Let me tell you a funny story. it ro My freshman year at the University of Maryland, they were having a meet and greet at the Black Student Union to welcome all the new black students. yeah And I didn't have a big, normally you're like assigned a sign the big. yeah And I didn't have a big okay because my when I entered in college, it was kind of late and my whole housing was messed up and they put me all in the upperclassmen housing, which I'm thankful for. So everything was just kind of, so I went to the Black student meeting and they were like, who's your big? And I was like, I don't know. And then i got I kind of got adopted by people, which was actually super dope. Yeah.
01:00:23
Speaker
But you're with all these, you're all in college together, but you're starting at the bottom again. yeah And there's a dramatic difference. Like when you enter into high school, you just came from middle school, you were still doing kid stuff. And you're in a school with people who were getting ready to go to college who were yeah adults. And there's this kind of like, eye opening experience to how much further I gotta go as in as a person for growth. yeah And so I'm in the Black Student Union and I feel like I'm pretty versed in in in things and life and what it is.
