Struggling with self-esteem or furious about Trump’s latest minimum wage cuts? In this explosive episode of Unsolicited Perspectives, host Bruce Anthony—self-help coach, political junkie, and recovering kettle chip addict—delivers a powerhouse mix of raw advice, fiery takes, and laugh-out-loud confessions. Dive into actionable strategies to rebuild your confidence (think morning mantras, boundary-setting hacks, and ditching your phone for sanity), then unpack how Trump’s rollback of Biden’s $17.75 wage mandate could crush workers’ livelihoods. Bruce doesn’t hold back, blending personal stories—like his failed wrestling biz due to unfair pay—with razor-sharp analysis of why "trickle-down" economics is a myth.

Need a reset? Bruce spills his ultimate guilty pleasures: champagne Sundays, superhero marathons, and video game rage sessions (yes, yelling at pixels is self-care). Whether you’re a young pro battling rent hikes, a parent juggling burnout, or just someone craving real talk, this episode is your blueprint for thriving in a chaotic world. #selfesteem #minimumwages #economy #GuiltyPleasures #podcast #politicaltruths #unsolicitedperspectives

00:01:01
Speaker
But that's enough of this intro. Let's get to the show.

Impact of Self-Esteem on Life Quality

00:01:11
Speaker
I had a good friend of mine I met up with, or I talked on the phone with this person not too long ago, and I'm go try to use gender nonspecifics. ah so that I don't identify this person. But if I slip up, I apologize, but I'm not going their name.
00:01:29
Speaker
But I was talking to them about their dating life and and the the current person that they know got a situationship with. It's not a good person or they're not a bad person, just not a good person for them.
00:01:43
Speaker
And I asked this person, why would you continue on dating this other person? Like they don't have a path forward for a career. Not that they they don't have something going on now, which they don't, but they don't even have a plan for what they want to do in the future, right?
00:02:00
Speaker
This person doesn't like to go out on dates. and And it's like, well, I thought you seem like you would like dates. So if the person that you went doesn't want to go out on dates,
00:02:12
Speaker
That's kind of a problem. The person is wishy-washy about committing. And so I told my friend, i was like, I don't know. It kind of seems like you're dating down.
00:02:24
Speaker
And my per my friend said, yeah, I have to admit, and don't have the greatest self-esteem. And for me, I couldn't understand it because this person is intelligent. It's a beautiful person, beautiful person inside outside, warm, friendly,
00:02:39
Speaker
and i And I told my friend, i said, hey, look, I could give you all the compliments in the world, but self-esteem is self-esteem. I can't build it up inside of you and nor should you want me to, because then your self-esteem is wrapped up in me building it up for you.
00:02:57
Speaker
You have to do it yourself. And my friend was like, I don't even know how to do it. So I gave my friend a few suggestions, which I'm going to get into later. But some people out here that are listening and watching this podcast might feel the same way as my friend. Hell, we've all gone through it where we have low self-esteem given a certain situation, outside factors, inside factors.
00:03:18
Speaker
Things are happening in your life that knocks your confidence down and in you as a person. It happens to all of us. There's nobody out there that has the highest self-esteem all the time. It's not true. There's a lot of people out there that's faking the funk, that act like they have a high self-esteem all the time, but those tend to be the most insecure, low esteem people that are out there, right? Like don't fake the funk, be real with yourself and say, hey, you know what? kind of want to fix this issue.
00:03:49
Speaker
But first, what is self-esteem? So of course I went into my research ahead, did a little research and the actual definition of self-esteem is And it's this is the core concept of self-esteem. Self-esteem reflects how individuals value and perceive themselves.
00:04:08
Speaker
It's rooted in personal opinions and beliefs. It shapes our self-worth, motivation, mental well-being, and life quality. Just think about that. Think of how important your self-esteem is.
00:04:22
Speaker
Your self-worth your motivation, your mental wellbeing, and your life quality. If you don't have high self-esteem, it's pretty tough to get up in the morning and go to work and take care of your responsibilities.
00:04:33
Speaker
It's pretty tough to get up in the morning and raise them kids if your self-esteem is low. Do you have motivation to do those things? Do you have the mental well-being to take care of other people if you have a low self-esteem of yourself?
00:04:46
Speaker
And your life quality is probably bad. I'll get into how low self-esteem affects us mentally and physically later. But just thinking of that concept, your self-esteem is crucial to you as a person.
00:05:01
Speaker
So I told my friend, I said, hey, this is something that you have to build within yourself. And I'm not a doctor, but there are some ways in which you can build your self-esteem.

Building Self-Esteem: Tips and Techniques

00:05:16
Speaker
Most importantly, it's about rebuilding confidence in yourself, your identity, your sense of belonging, and your self-assuredness. These are the ways in which that you can build up your self-esteem.
00:05:31
Speaker
And one of the ways that you could build up your self-esteem, because it's linked to mental health, right? It might not be diagnosed as a mental health illness, but it damn sure leads to mental health illnesses.
00:05:43
Speaker
You ever heard of depression? Yeah. You think people out there that suffer through depression got a high self-esteem of themselves in that particular moment? Because self-esteem is ever flowing. It's like a ah river, right? It's continuously moving. It's continuously changing.
00:06:01
Speaker
Depending on, once again, I said outside and inside factors. But I told my friend, you got to do mind shift, mindset shifts. And what I said now actually get into what research...
00:06:15
Speaker
told me to tell my friend that, you know, i'd already told my friend, so it was pointless, but the research, I'm giving y'all the research, but what I told my friend was write down these things.
00:06:28
Speaker
You have, uh, you have low self-esteem in your looks, write down, you are a beautiful person, write down, you are fit, because these things are absolutely true. Write down that you're intelligent, write down that you are a hard worker, write down that you are a good person.
00:06:44
Speaker
Write down all these good qualities about yourself. I said, write them down. Put them on your mirror, your bathroom mirror. So it's the first thing that you see in the morning. on it And I also gave my friend this advice.
00:06:58
Speaker
Do not touch your cell phone for the first 15 minutes of the day. Don't touch it. It immediately throws you into a frenzy. There's been many studies that have documented and proven this.
00:07:09
Speaker
If you just don't touch your cell phone for the first 15 minutes and just get into the day, deep breaths. If you can do meditation, great. I can't because I can't focus that well.
00:07:22
Speaker
Deep breaths. You know, I sit at the edge of the bed. And I just take deep breaths. I take five really deep breaths. I bring the air in and I blow it out through my mouth. Now it's a problem in the morning because my breath is funky as hell because, you know, I can't breathe through my nose. So i'm a mouth breather and you mouth breathing all night long.
00:07:42
Speaker
which means your breath is your mouth is dry, which means you got funky breath. So I'm breathing in through my nose, blowing out through my mouth. Yeah, I'm not being thrown in into a frenzy because of my cell phone, but I am absolutely being thrown into a frenzy because of my funky ass breath. But that's neither here nor there.
00:07:57
Speaker
I take these deep breaths to kind of center myself. Right. And then I get I lift myself up off the bed and walk into the bathroom and I start brushing my teeth.
00:08:08
Speaker
Right. now use my And I brush teeth. Ladies and gentlemen, that's important when you brush your teeth in the morning to actually brush your teeth, you know, brush your tongue, brush your tongue, too. That'll help get rid of that morning breath.
00:08:19
Speaker
Mouthwash is important. Antiseptic, you know, help fight cavities and plaque, gingivitis and all that things. You know, wash my face. I have to use the restroom, use the restroom.
00:08:31
Speaker
Still don't go to my phone. Go to the kitchen. I do my little morning juice. My morning juice is apple cider vinegar, seltzer water, some water mixed in with the seltzer water so it's not too carbonated and a liquid enhancer for caffeine because I don't drink coffee.
00:08:48
Speaker
And then I come to my desk and I sit down and I take a couple of more deep breaths, right? ah drink a little bit and then I go to my phone because that's about 15 to 20 minutes. Didn't touch it.
00:08:59
Speaker
But I told my friend, put those mantras, on the mirror so that when you get up, don't touch your phone, go to the bathroom, brush your teeth and say the mantras out loud. Cause I was talking to my sister and she made a very good point that a lot of time that negative thoughts in our head aren't in our voice.
00:09:22
Speaker
It's from the voices of people who said these things to us or handed at these things to us that made us feel this particular way. It's never really in our voice.
00:09:33
Speaker
And if it is in your voice, by repeating the opposite, in other words, in your voice, in your head, the reason why you have low self-esteem is because you're speaking negative negatively about yourself, right?
00:09:46
Speaker
It's either in somebody else's voices or maybe it's in your voice. By speaking these positive mantras out in your voice so that you can hear them, you'll start to believe it.
00:10:00
Speaker
You'll start to live it. Manifesting, these things are actually true. I use a laugh at people to do those vision boards and I still haven't done it. I have a mental vision board. It's like a set goals of things that I wanna accomplish and I just go out and do it. And mentally, I don't need to see it every day.
00:10:17
Speaker
Like a true vision board, mentally, once I turn that click in my head, it's off and running. Like there's a switch that I could turn, not everybody could do it. And I don't even have control of the switch half the time.
00:10:28
Speaker
The switch just decides to click when it decides to click. I'll talk about that when I get into my guilty pleasures later, because one of my guilty p pleasures I had to cut off. But yeah, I had this switch that I could turn on sometimes. Sometimes it has a turn on itself.
00:10:43
Speaker
Other people need the actual visualization to see it every day for it to register. And when you do these things, when you manifest them, when you say them out loud, yo, you can really make, you can really manifest good things in your life.
00:10:59
Speaker
You really can. You can create a higher self-esteem of yourself by doing these things. And when I did the research, They agreed with me for more more or less. It said practicing self-compassion, treating yourself like a friend.
00:11:16
Speaker
You challenge your negative self-talk, focus on your strengths and achievements. And that's essentially what I said. Set realistic goals and track progress. Prioritize hobbies, health, like exercise and nutrition and assertive communication. Like I really dug that because I know for me, when I start to get down on myself is when I don't set friend boundaries or family boundaries or boundaries of just people like and like I don't know what it is about me.
00:11:45
Speaker
OK, but people like talking to me. I'm not that friendly. I'm not. I'm not that welcoming. A lot of times I have a scowl on my face. And a lot of times looking like the Blackstone called Steve Austin.
00:11:57
Speaker
You know, I don't know why people feel like I'm approachable. I'm not. I'm 240 pounds, 235, 30 pounds, wherever I am at that particular time of the year.
00:12:10
Speaker
Ball head, goatee, tattoos all all over my arms. Like, I'm not somebody, I'm not this big guy this big Cuddly teddy bear, even though people close to me would say that I am a gentle giant.
00:12:22
Speaker
I mean, I guess I am, but people that just recognize me don't know that. But sometimes people just love to come up and talk to me and have full blown conversations. And I'm not really into small talk.
00:12:33
Speaker
That's not my thing. I'm into in depth. We're going to have a conversation. Let's have a conversation. Tell me about your life because I'm naturally curious or messy, whichever way you want to describe it. But I'm like that.
00:12:45
Speaker
And I've had to learn to put boundaries because i would have conversations with neighbors and then they think they're my friends and want to hang out. And I don't want, i don't want no new friends. I don't want no new friends. I got enough friends.
00:12:57
Speaker
I got enough friends. I got, I got enough people that if I want to throw a party to myself, I can invite 50 to 75 individual people, party groups, people that don't know each other to my party and they'll show up.
00:13:11
Speaker
And I, Okay, great. Great. don't want all those people in my life. I want a solid five, six, maybe. that's That's about it. But if you don't set those boundaries, like I haven't in the past, you'll start to get run down. And part of that affects your mental well-being, which affects your self-esteem. And you start to get run down. And you're just like, you know what?
00:13:36
Speaker
I got to pull away from everybody. And that's not healthy. So when they say assertive communication, I'm taking that as setting boundaries with people. And that could be with anybody. That could be with your family. That could be your friends.
00:13:50
Speaker
That could be with your coworkers. That could be with your boss, right? um You got to celebrate small successes, acknowledge controllable factors, recognize some things that just out of your control.
00:14:01
Speaker
You can't control the fact that there's traffic and that you in it. I got a friend that's going to New York this weekend. They do not, they're going with another friend.
00:14:12
Speaker
They do not want to take the mega bus, but the other friend was like, let's take the mega bus. But oh yeah, by the way, we're leaving DC to go to New York and I got to get my haircut first. My haircut's going to be at 11 a.m., which means that they're not leaving the DC area on the mega bus until noon 1231.
00:14:32
Speaker
And I said, well wait a minute, you're going to catch New York City traffic doing that. How do I know? Because that happened to me when I went up to New York for my besties, a 40th birthday.
00:14:43
Speaker
I went too late on the Megabus. I told you about my adventure on the Megabus. ah But yeah i was like, yeah, no, that's. That's crazy, but you can't control that traffic.
00:14:56
Speaker
That's not the so that's not something you can control. You can control when you leave, though, to reduce that stress.
00:15:04
Speaker
Boundaries, right? And use positivity lists, written reminders of qualities and skills. These are all ways to help improve your self-esteem. But what happens when your self-esteem is low?
00:15:17
Speaker
Well, some of the causes could just be like negative childhood experiences, criticism and neglect, ah bullying, you know, societal and cultural pressures or physical health issues.

Societal Pressures and Youth Self-Esteem

00:15:28
Speaker
All of these could be causes of a low self-esteem. And let me tell you something. I feel bad for these kids growing em up in this environment right now because social media is a lie.
00:15:39
Speaker
And they don't know where to lie because they haven't lived life yet. And they don't want to listen to the older people because the older people, they'll say to older people, just like when I was younger and I used to tell old people, y'all don't know what it is.
00:15:50
Speaker
Y'all don't know what's going on out here. Yeah, they do. Yeah, they do. i I might be 44 years old. I still know what's going on out there in the streets. And I done lived it two, three times. Like, I understand what's going on, but young people, you know, they don't want to listen to older people.
00:16:05
Speaker
And I get it because you think you know everything. So they go to social media and social media, the people out here posting the best parts of their life and and not being authentic, right? That's not what social media is, is to be authentic. So these young kids growing up,
00:16:23
Speaker
And we've seen it, you know, low self-esteem or esteem wrapped up in how many followers. Back in the day, used to be how many mospray MySpace friends you had. hey Just think about that. We used to care about how many.
00:16:37
Speaker
We used to care about the top eight friends in our MySpace. We was crazy. We was wilder. But like everybody wants to be liked. Everybody wants to be loved. So, I mean, I get it.
00:16:48
Speaker
and This is just a tough era for these kids to grow up in. But the effects of low self-esteem, you know, let's start with the emotional, right? You have persistence persistent negativity, fear of judgment judgment and ah perfectionism.
00:17:02
Speaker
Now, I didn't say any of those things right. and And I can have a low self-esteem or the way that I speak. I lean into it. Look, y'all know got a speech impediment. Y'all know I got a stutter.
00:17:13
Speaker
I even have a list that hopefully never comes out. I've done a good job of hiding it through the years, but I got a list. OK, I don't let those things rock me, you know, because I've been dealing with it for 44 years. It just is what it is. I'm going to stumble over my words. I'm going to misspeak. I'm going to say words wrong.
00:17:30
Speaker
It happens. It's not the end of the world, but some of these things can be so detrimental to you. And it's because of low self-esteem. You also have behavioral effects of low self-esteem, avoidance of new experiences, self-harm or poor self-care.
00:17:48
Speaker
You know, I talked about getting up in the morning and brush your teeth. No, I really, really emphasize that because I feel like There's more people out there waking up in the morning and not immediately brushing their teeth than what I really want to point out.
00:18:02
Speaker
Because I feel like many a times when I was training clients early in the morning or I had early meetings and I had to talk to people, I was like, why is your breath funky right now?
00:18:14
Speaker
It is only 10 o'clock in the morning. I can understand if your breath was a little tart at 2, 3. three may And definitely at five, six when you'd have been doing stuff all day long.
00:18:27
Speaker
But why is it funky at 10 a.m.? But also at least to, you know, not showering. I know people who have gone through depression and don't shower, don't wash your face, don't like don't take care of themselves.
00:18:41
Speaker
low self-esteem, which once again, they said is not a mental health issue, but can lead to mental health issues like depression. These are signs of people that are having low self-esteem. And then social, right? There are social effects of having low self-esteem.
00:18:56
Speaker
There are strained relationships, low resilience, right? Reduced confidence in personal value. So when I was talking to my friend, I gave him those suggestions, which I give everybody. Look, even if your are self-esteem and your confidence is sky high right now, doing these things don't hurt, right?
00:19:16
Speaker
You can always be a better version of who you are. You're not the best version of who you are. There's always a better version. So don't check your cell phone the first 15 minutes of the day.
00:19:27
Speaker
Go brush your teeth and say positive mantras about yourself. Right. And when you feel like you have low self-esteem, watch out for those negative thoughts.
00:19:39
Speaker
In whose voice do you hear it? Is it yours? Then do positive self-talk. Is it not yours? Then guess what? Do positive self-talk.
00:19:51
Speaker
Your self-esteem is so important to you as a person. And I want everybody to be out there thriving. There's some people that have a really high self-esteem in themselves and they shouldn't. I'm going to talk about them next, but but right now i want to focus in on y'all before I go in on people that too have too high of a self-esteem level and they need to be knocked down a peg or two.
00:20:10
Speaker
For those people, i just wish that I could be the negative thoughts in their head to tell them, hey, you stupid. You should shut the hell up because you don't know what you're talking about. But For those people out there that that are listening to to this, that aren't feeling good about themselves right now, take those steps, write it down, the positive qualities that you know about yourself, the positive qualities that people close to you say that you might not recognize.
00:20:37
Speaker
Somebody might say, you're a beautiful person, and you're like, ah I'm not that beautiful. No, you're a beautiful person. The reason why you think you're not a beautiful person is because of negative self-talk. You are.
00:20:48
Speaker
People are going to just lie to you, especially if you hear it all the time. People aren't going to lie to you. I had to self-talk, positive self-talk myself because everybody out there that I have in kind run in contact with, they say, Bruce, you're a good person.
00:21:03
Speaker
And I'm like, no, I'm not. Y'all don't know the thoughts that are going on in my head. I'm joking on you as I'm talking on you. But my actions and the way I look out for people and am there for people, they're right.
00:21:19
Speaker
I'm a good person. I just don't like when people call themselves a good person because it seems like they're trying to convince themselves. But also, sometimes you got to convince yourself because you don't believe what other people are telling you.
00:21:31
Speaker
And sometimes you need to. So for all those people out there that are listening listening to this and watching this, they have a little bit low self-esteem right now, do those things.
00:21:42
Speaker
And from me to you, you are a beautiful person. You are a good person. You are worthy. You are worthy of success. And more importantly, you're worthy of happiness.
00:22:04
Speaker
People smuggling eggs across the Mexican border. Price is still in lumber going up.
00:22:13
Speaker
we're We're heading towards a recession. like People don't want to talk about that, but that's where we're heading to. The economy is starting to go down in the tank because of factors that... Hell, there's still factors that we're still dealing with from the COVID and the pandemic.
00:22:30
Speaker
But this new administration is making moves that's making a stock market tank, which is making your retirement tank, right? Which is making the cost of goods go up with these trade wars and these tariffs.
00:22:44
Speaker
we've I've gone through all that over and over and over again. I'm i'm not going to address those specific things. But see, those specific things aren't kind of aren't really direct.
00:22:56
Speaker
Right. Like when the president puts tariffs on goods that will be importing. I mean, yes, there's a trickle down effect to us. We're going to be paying more.
00:23:11
Speaker
But it's not the president directly putting his hand in your pocket. Right. You know what i mean by it's not direct. There are stages before it gets to you or me or the next person.
00:23:28
Speaker
However, he. In his infinite wisdom, I'm saying that sarcastically if yeah' don't y'all couldn't tell by the tell. he in his infinite wisdom has has decided to start dig digging into your pockets. Now, a lot of people won't be affected by this, right?
00:23:49
Speaker
Like a lot of people will not be affected by this. But there's a lot of people that will be affected by this. And it leads to a slippery slope, right? So what am I talking about?

Exploring Minimum Wage Policies

00:24:01
Speaker
President Trump has rescinded Joe Biden's executive order that mandated a $17.75 hour minimum wage for federal contractors.
00:24:17
Speaker
This is going to take effect real soon. This is also another example of Trump trying to roll back everything that Joe Biden did.
00:24:29
Speaker
everything. So what does this mean? This means that federal contractors will no longer be required to pay $17.75 per hour.
00:24:40
Speaker
Instead, wages will revert to earlier standards, such as the $13.30 per hour for contractors, predating Biden's order, or the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
00:24:55
Speaker
So what does this essentially mean? Look, the government's has contracts with private companies. Okay. Prime example, Starlink, right? That's Elon Musk's company.
00:25:08
Speaker
They got a private contract with Starlink. Okay. I mean, the the federal government has a contract with a private company and the private company is Starlink. There's stuff like this all over the country, right? So many private companies have federal kant ah contracts. but this What Biden's order basically said was, if you got a federal contract with me, if you're a private company and you got a federal contract with me, you have to pay your employees at the bare minimum $17.75.
00:25:40
Speaker
seventeen dollars a seventy five cent We're giving you money. We're entering in a contract with you. In order to have this contract, you're going to abide by our federal wage for federal contract, federal contracted employees.
00:26:00
Speaker
And so Trump has decided now we're going rescind that we're going knock down four dollars and forty five cents per hour yeah A whole $10. Now, let's get into the economics of it. $17.75 is a lot of money anyway.
00:26:18
Speaker
If you're working a 40-hour week and you're making $20 an hour, then that means you're only making $800 week. for some, $800 a week ain't bad, right? Eight times four, that's $3,200 a month before taxes. eight times four that's thirty two hundred dollars a month before taxes And you might be like, I'm all right.
00:26:35
Speaker
And if you are a person that only got like, I don't know, $2,000 worth of expenses. Okay. I don't know too many people out there that only got $2,000 worth of expenses.
00:26:46
Speaker
Hell, apartments in the area and in my building alone, one bedrooms go for 2,700 month. honey ah month The one bedrooms and ain't that big.
00:27:03
Speaker
Seven hundred square feet. Twenty seven hundred a month, not including utilities, not including cable and the Internet. I ain't got no cable, but I got the Internet. I know what I mean.
00:27:14
Speaker
So when I say $20 an hour for minimum wage is really not livable. $1775 was barely. I mean, if you live in certain areas, you live in Podunk, USA, you you and your rent is $500 a month, which I don't know where that is. But maybe there's some place out there like that.
00:27:38
Speaker
You can survive. You can make it. But $1775?
00:27:44
Speaker
That's $2.25 less than the $20 an hour. That's barely livable. And now you're talking about taking it down to 13 and in some cases all the way down to seven.
00:27:58
Speaker
You know how much money $7 an hour is for 40 hours a week? That's seven times four. That's $280. $280 ain't enough money put cheese on a waffle. What you gonna do with that?
00:28:12
Speaker
You can't buy an Xbox or a PlayStation with that. Hell, you could barely get a carton of eggs with that. And so who is this helping? Well, there's a lot of people that support this, particularly business groups.
00:28:27
Speaker
Business groups like the Associated Builders and Contractors, they are applauding this rollback, claiming that Biden's rules were costly in unfair and unfair in low-cost regions. Okay.
00:28:39
Speaker
I want to address this first. I, one of the many things that I do as far as trying to raise my economic level, the many jobs that I have,
00:28:54
Speaker
is that I am a business consultant. I will help businesses, one, start their business, right? File the proper paperwork, get the get the tax ID number, open up a business account, start the website, like start the admin, files ah ah the articles of Confederate, like all ah organization, all that stuff, right?
00:29:15
Speaker
And then also strategize what their business is for the year to to help them continue to grow. Okay? This is what I tell all business owners.
00:29:27
Speaker
One, do you have your enough personal capital to start your own business? Because once you borrow, you're automatically in the hole and you better have a damn good idea to get yourself out of that hole. I'm speaking specifically of your business idea.
00:29:47
Speaker
If you can self-fund, you're in the driver's seat. I then say, can you do all the work right now by yourself while your company grows? The reason why I say that is because if you can self-fund yourself, you got real good opportunity for success.
00:30:05
Speaker
If you have to self-fund and then pay somebody, well, Unless you got jobs and you've got revenue coming in to help with that, you might run into a little bit of trouble.
00:30:19
Speaker
So I say to all business people, my some my first advice is is if you can sell fun, great. If you can't, okay. And if you can do it yourself to start off, do that. If you have to hire people, make sure that you have enough money for not only you to live, but for you to cover payroll.
00:30:40
Speaker
And I always tell people when you hire people, it's not always the case, but if you offer a cheap wage, you're gonna get cheap work.
00:30:54
Speaker
Most of the time you offer you offer a cheap wage, you're gonna get cheap work. So you better pay attention to what the market for that job is paying and pay accordingly.
00:31:07
Speaker
this is These are the advice that I give. So for these federal contractors who are builders and contractors doing construction, right?
00:31:19
Speaker
If you can't pay the employees a fair wage, a livable wage, you y'all need to be in business. you know You're not going to have a successful ability

Economic Disparities and Policy Critique

00:31:29
Speaker
business. If your business is predicated on essentially, I'm being hyperbolic here, but essentially slave labor.
00:31:36
Speaker
and And yes, I understand throwing out that word is It's going to throw a lot of people off. But when you're giving non-livable wages, yeah, people are still getting wages, but you're essentially, you know, in dense and servitude at the very least.
00:31:54
Speaker
So when you're doing these things, yeah you're not going to have successful business if that's what you got to do to be successful. and And you know how I know this? Because I did it.
00:32:06
Speaker
I've done it. I didn't know I was paying people unlivable wages. But, you know, there have been times where I've had different companies. And, you know, when I had the wrestling company, I was paying a certain amount of money each match. And they agreed to it. I thought that was OK until I found out what the market dictated.
00:32:20
Speaker
And I was like, y'all were grossly underpaid. Why would y'all do that? Well, we believed in things and we wanted to give work and this and that. And I was like, well, y'all gave me your heart and soul. Let me find a way to try and pay you more money.
00:32:31
Speaker
Guess what? When I tried to find a way to pay him more money, couldn't pay him more money. That's reason why there's no longer a wrestling company that I'm associated with. it It failed because I didn't have the money. It wasn't going to be a successful business. So if if your version of being successful in your business is paying your people unfair, unlivable wages, you're not going to be successful.
00:32:55
Speaker
You need to find something else to do. All right. Now, who are the critics? Of course, it's the labor unions and of course, Democrats. They are arguing it harms workers, economic security and rights.
00:33:08
Speaker
Look, people always want to talk about the economy and during Biden's run. And then when Kamala Kamala Harris took over,
00:33:20
Speaker
They talked about how great their economy was. Everybody kept talking inflation. I've already given how these things are kind of loosely tied, but not directly tied to one another. We did have a good economy.
00:33:32
Speaker
But there were. There was inflation on certain goods. But that just because you have a thriving economy doesn't mean that people aren't out aren there out aren't out there struggling to survive.
00:33:47
Speaker
I mean, Florida Evans and James Evans was barely keeping their head above water, but they were still having good times. That's what it said. Temporary layoff, good times. ah But no, it's like, look, if you're going to run a business and run a successful business, you got to pay people correctly.
00:34:05
Speaker
And if you can't pay people correctly, you don't deserve to have business. And then if you're getting these government contracts to do certain work, and you can't pay your people, that's especially bad.
00:34:21
Speaker
Where's that money going? Now, I don't, I don't, I've never had a federal contract, okay? I don't know at this point if I ever won a federal contract. I want to talk to people that have worked and done federal contracts. And I have friends that because i live in D.C., federal contracted workers and there's all different types of roles. They're not government employees. They're loosely associated with it.
00:34:47
Speaker
yes It's crazy. And if their contract isn't renewed, they got to keep going up for bed. And it's crazy. It's a crazy life out here. These federal contract workers. But if these companies are getting the money from the federal government, the federal government has every right to say, and this is what you should pay your employees because they're an extension. You are an extension of us.
00:35:11
Speaker
And this man is rolling the back. Meanwhile, trying to give tax credits and tax cuts to the rich, that whole trickle down Reaganomics theory, that the money will trickle down. You know what happened during the pandemic?
00:35:27
Speaker
there grew a wider gap of economic disparity. The rich got richer. The poor got poorer. It does not trickle down.
00:35:40
Speaker
It's a hoarding at top because they're purposely trying to undercut the workforce. They want to pay you as little as they can to get you to come in and do the work so they can have all the money themselves.
00:35:53
Speaker
When they re-bailed out the banks, Back in 2008, 2009, and 2010 as well. i think two thousand and ten as well Those bank execs took that bailout and gave themselves bonuses.
00:36:07
Speaker
People should have gone to jail. For what crime? I don't know. i got a friend that says we should have found a crime te to charge them. I'm like, I don't know if I believe in that. You just gonna find crimes and and stuff? Like, no, no, there needs to be a crime. But it should have been a crime to get bailed out for stuff that they did, for actions they took, that they knew what was gonna happen,
00:36:32
Speaker
Collapsed the housing market and they got bailed out. All those people, all those ordinary people that lost their homes, what did they get? The system is rigged.
00:36:45
Speaker
It's rigged if you keep allowing the people that are rigging the system to keep winning elections. We got a man that's the right hand man or actually the man in power. We don't know. Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, crying the blues because he lost a couple of hundred billion because nobody wants his Teslas anymore.
00:37:05
Speaker
So much so that you got the president got a damn car show on the front lawn of the White House to haunt Teslas.
00:37:17
Speaker
Elon Musk lost $120, $140, $160 billion. Guess how much he got? Still $340, $320 billion.
00:37:27
Speaker
Billion. But because he lost a little bit, a little bit, we got to hawk some Teslas in front of the White House. But at the same time, they want to cut federal contracted employees from $17.75 an hour, which is in livable, to either $13.30 or made hour way back in 2000. 1999, as matter fact.
00:37:58
Speaker
i worked at a certain video store all the way back and two thousands ninety ninety nine as a matter of fact
00:38:09
Speaker
I made more money when i was ah when I was working at a bookstore.
00:38:15
Speaker
Back in 2001. And
00:38:21
Speaker
and ah here we are in 2025, where in 2001, you know what I'm saying? A six-pack of Bud Light might have been $4. Might have been five, I think i would go to they I would go to the grocery store with a five spot, get me a six pack of Bud Light, sit up there and play video games.
00:38:40
Speaker
Or I had a i had a ah dual TV that had a split screen where on one screen could be one outlet and other screen be another outlet. Now I recreated it just by having two TVs, but TV could split and I'd have a movie going on one side and video games going on the other side. It was my six pack of Bud Light or Miller Lite, whichever had to sell going on, but it was four five dollars back in 2000, 2001.
00:39:02
Speaker
two thousand two thousand one What is it now? Nine. Almost double. And what I was getting paid back then, working Retail, right?
00:39:15
Speaker
Or what they want federal contracted employees to go back to getting paid less 25 years later.
00:39:26
Speaker
think of that think it Think of it from that standpoint. I made more than $7.25 working at a video store and a bookstore in 2000.
00:39:38
Speaker
Then some of these federal contracted employees will make in 2025. And these are grownups. I was a kid. I was 20. These are people my age.
00:39:51
Speaker
They got families.
00:39:54
Speaker
and and And they're talking about lowering it from 17 all the way to seven. Maybe it stops at that 13. but it could go all the way to the F7.
00:40:04
Speaker
And for those contractors that had these deals with the government, these days builders and ah associated builders and contractors who are praising this, they're not they're not struggling.
00:40:19
Speaker
They got that federal contact and money.
00:40:23
Speaker
But this is all a part of the current administration's
00:40:31
Speaker
purge of everything that Joe Biden did. If he did it, they want to do the opposite. If Joe Biden prays the Lord, they're going to pray. They're going to pray Satan.
00:40:42
Speaker
going do whatever the opposite was of Joe Biden. And then they're going to tell you that Joe Biden wasn't actually praising God. He was praising Satan and that the Satan that they praise in this real Jesus Christ. That's that's what they're going to say.
00:40:54
Speaker
That's how they're going to flip it. And you're going to see it on Fox News, OAN, and all those conservative media outlets. You know, the same people that said that Elon Musk didn't do a sig high, you know, that Nazi symbol twice, three times.
00:41:06
Speaker
He didn't do it, though. I mean, hey, look, some people are really starting to wake up because they're starting to be affected. And there's a lot of people that voted for the current administration. They're going to be affected by this policy.
00:41:18
Speaker
So good luck. We're not even getting your pay cut in half because you're not making twenty dollars an hour. Right. So that seventeen seventy five to seven twenty five, that ten dollars and fifty cent isn't half.
00:41:31
Speaker
It's more than half. Hmm. I wonder what Elon Musk would do if 60% of his wealth went away. Instead of the Tesla cars, he probably had them cyber trucks out there hawking those or probably hawking spaceships or something like that.
00:41:48
Speaker
Because the rich is going to stay the rich as long as they make the poor stay the poor.

Guilty Pleasures and Self-Care

00:42:03
Speaker
You like guilty pleasures? I sure as hell do. I love guilty pleasures and I got a lot of them. And, you know, for the third segment, I want to bring the mood down a little bit because it was a little it was kind of semi serious or heartfelt in the first segment.
00:42:18
Speaker
And then it was definitely serious in the second segment. But now I want to get a little silly and I want to let y'all know a little bit more about me and some my guilty pleasures. And if you're a regular listener or a watcher, ah somebody pays attention to this podcast regularly, then you know a little bit of my guilty pleasures because I talk about them often.
00:42:34
Speaker
But I'm going to get a little bit more specific in this segment. But first, let's establish what a guilty pleasure is. A guilty pleasure is something that one enjoys dirt doing, even though it may be embarrassing, taboo,
00:42:48
Speaker
or shameful to admit. These pleasures are normal and healthy and can be a form of self-care and relaxation. Indulging in guilty pleasures can help you feel more connected to yourself and others if you're feeling socially isolated.
00:43:05
Speaker
So one of my guilty pleasures that I i mean, i still have it and I don't even want to make my, so my my sister shouldn't feel bad. We've had this conversation.
00:43:16
Speaker
You know, me and my sister film on Sundays now. We film the Sibling Happy Hour, the After Hours, and the YouTube exclusive videos, which by the way, y'all are missing out on a lot of content because if y'all really, it's like an added Sibling ex ah Happy Hour ah segment that's strictly on YouTube.
00:43:35
Speaker
So if you like if you're listening to the show and you're like, well, i listen to the show. i don't need to watch the show. Yo, y'all are missing some stuff on YouTube. Also, on the video portion, I started adding some behind the scenes of stuff that I cut, you know, that's not supposed be on air.
00:43:50
Speaker
had a behind the scenes segment at the end of every yeah video podcast episode. So check those out. so But we're filming on Sunday and we're filming two hours, two and a half hours. And then at the end of filming, me and my sister are just jibber jabbering.
00:44:04
Speaker
for another 30 minutes until Roscoe starts barking or I have to go to the bathroom just because me and my sister are close. If y'all haven't figured it out, me and my siblings are very close. We can get together and just talk for hours.
00:44:16
Speaker
And that's great. I love our relationship that we have right now. However, one of the things that's kind of been cut from my life, one of my guilty pleasures is my Sunday fun day. Now I've i've kind of explained what my Sunday fun day is.
00:44:33
Speaker
but But let me give you guys a clear example what my Sunday Funday is. My Sunday Funday is a reset. And everybody close to me knows. Don't ask Bruce to do anything on Sunday.
00:44:43
Speaker
That's a Sunday Funday. It's a reset for me. To prepare me for the upcoming week, my job, and also this podcast, my jobs, and also this podcast, I'm dealing with people all the time.
00:44:57
Speaker
I'm giving advice. I'm counseling. I'm managing. I'm doing something. Where I, or this podcast I'm producing, I'm editing, like I'm always doing something.
00:45:08
Speaker
And it can be, I'm not complaining. I love it for the most part. It can be physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausting. If I don't Sunday Funday reset, people won't catch hell but because I'm going to be agitated and I'm already got a ball of fire that's burning inside of me every day, all day anyway.
00:45:31
Speaker
So if I don't have this reset, there's a problem. So my Sunday Funday has always started with champagne. Actually, It doesn't start with that. So when the weather is nice, the Sunday fun day starts with a walk.
00:45:46
Speaker
I normally do an hour long walk outside to get the fresh air, listen to my gospel music because, you know, I don't um't go to church, but, you know, I try to get right with the Lord every Sunday before I start my hedonism.
00:45:57
Speaker
I like to get right the Lord. So I go for a long walk and listen to gospel music and then the gospel music will end. And i listen to R&B, typically Chris Brown, before as I finish my walk.
00:46:09
Speaker
And then I take a super self-clean like shower bath. And it used to be before we were doing the shows on Sunday that I would make myself a little drink and then soak my feet and then give myself a ah manicure, a pedicure, give myself a pedicure.
00:46:30
Speaker
And then I would jump into the shower. And I had all types of body scrubs. I mean, like the just salt and sugar scrubs. you would I would bait i would like wash and then use the salt and so ah sugar scrubs.
00:46:42
Speaker
And I would use a mask on my face. And I would use a scrub on my face. And now I would do a deep shave on my head and shape up my face. And you know do a little something my hands with the lotion. Make sure my fingernails was good.
00:46:56
Speaker
Then I would come in here. into my bedroom and then I would put some body cream on. you know what I'm saying? That smelled good.
00:47:06
Speaker
Didn't mean that for that to go off, but put some body cream on. then you You smell good. Spray a little bit of cologne on. You know what I'm saying? All while having myself a little drink, then I would start to go prepare my breakfast and my breakfast could be anything. It could be, know,
00:47:22
Speaker
French toast and eggs and bacon and sausage, or I could order something, or it could be chicken wings and French fries, whatever it was that was going to be my favorite meal of the week. That's what I would do. And I would open up a bottle of champagne with Gatorade, sugar-free Gatorade, you know, right? Got to stay keto, sugar-free Gatorade. And I would sit in front of the TV and watch whatever shows that were going on that time.
00:47:43
Speaker
Since all my CW superhero shows are over with, if it wasn't a power, then it'd be a um equalizer, or right now is Reacher and daredevil.
00:47:54
Speaker
And I would just sit back, mellow, relax. And when crypto was still here, he was sitting on the couch with me and we would chill. and And when the weather was really nice, I would sit out on my balcony and put the TV out there.
00:48:06
Speaker
And we would sit out there drinking champagne, just enjoying TV, listen to the kids play in the courtyard and listen to people enjoying themselves in the patio. And that was a good time for me.
00:48:17
Speaker
Guilty pleasure. And it's all going come back, right? I can only do some of it now, but that's part of my guilty pleasure. Matter of fact, it's not even a Sunday thing, actually.
00:48:28
Speaker
Saturday, if I don't have plans, I do the same thing. I have the same routine on Saturdays as well on Sundays. you know Now that I can't have the full Sunday fun day, if I don't have anything planned on Saturday, damn well believe I'm going to have a Saturday fun day as well.
00:48:43
Speaker
and just Sometimes it just me sitting in the house. Like last weekend, I had the greatest fun day. Little Saturday and Sunday, ah just, you know, just chilling. Well, I had something to do on Sunday. So and it wasn't Sunday, but it was Saturday.
00:48:58
Speaker
You know, I had something to do. Another one of my guilty pleasures. This, as you heard in the first segment, I said I was going touch back on this later. this is what I was talking about. Kettle chips. Remember I said I had a little switch that you had to, that sometimes I could control.
00:49:13
Speaker
Sometimes I could cut it off. But other times, like I don't have any control over it it'll cut off when it's ready. I gained all the way back that I had lost right before Thanksgiving.
00:49:26
Speaker
When I got on the scale the other day. And the reason why is because I was eating a bag of kettle chips. The Harris Teeter $2.50 bag of kettle chips, the full bag a day.
00:49:39
Speaker
A day addicted. I love first of all, i love chips. OK, let's just put that out there. I love chips. You got a chip in the house. has It hasn't been touched by the human hands.
00:49:53
Speaker
I'm probably to try and eat that chip. OK, I love kettle chips. I love ruffle chips. I don't love Pringles. But if that's the only thing available, I'll eat Pringles.
00:50:06
Speaker
I love chips. I love Cheetos. I love pretzels, too. Pretzels are delicious to me. I love that stuff. It's a guilty pleasure. I love that food. and Okay.
00:50:17
Speaker
Playing video games. My sister has, my brother and sister has pictures of me.
00:50:23
Speaker
Different stages of my life, sitting in a chair, playing video games, the same position, same facial expression from like eight all the way to like 25. I love video games.
00:50:41
Speaker
And I don't even love like a lot of video games that are popular, right? Never played Halo. Didn't like GTA, Grand Theft Auto, because I could never beat it. Played Grand Theft Auto. Well, I played Grand Theft Auto 3 and San Andreas, and that was pretty much it, right?
00:50:58
Speaker
I just like, you know, the basketball games. It it was used to be double dribble. Then it became Lakers versus Celtics, and then Bulls versus Blazers, and then NBA Lives, and then NBA 2Ks, which I'm still playing.
00:51:11
Speaker
As soon as I finish recording this right now, i'm about to go play NBA 2K. I'm about to go play NBA 2K. Also, I used to be a huge fan of playing mad one Madden. Won Madden tournaments.
00:51:22
Speaker
I don't play Madden so much now, but they brought back college football. You know, I was playing that religiously. That's what I was doing on Sundays instead of going to church. But religiously, you know, I love video games. They're relaxing to me, even though I've had many women that I date say it doesn't seem relaxing that you're yelling and screaming and cussing.
00:51:42
Speaker
My neighbors have to think that I have Tourette's just because of the way I'm acting when I play video games. But no, it's very relaxing to me. I'm telling you, I love video games. The last guilty pleasure.
00:51:53
Speaker
Y'all might have guessed, but I love superhero and savior shows. This is what i mean by that. Everybody knows my affection for Superman. Got a Superman tattoo.
00:52:05
Speaker
I got Superman clothing. I've got Superman pictures in my mom's garage that I'm just like, I'm too old to be having this in like the main area. If I ever buy a house and have a playroom, a man's room, all that stuff will go back in there because that's specifically there. But my place is like grown up now. I can't have Superman stuff all over place.
00:52:26
Speaker
But love superhero shows. Always have. I love comic books. I love people saving other people. Just do. And I love savior shows. People saving other people. It's reason why I love the equalizer. I love Reacher.
00:52:39
Speaker
Love Reacher. I want Reacher and the equalizer. I want... Alan Richardson and Quinn Latifah to make a buddy cop movie where they essentially play the characters, the equalizer and Reacher.
00:52:50
Speaker
And they just recast them because I don't think Reacher and equalizer because it's just in the same world, but that they recast them and they just go around solving crimes all over the world and helping people. That would be like, the good that they could make 17 versions of that like they do fast e furious. And I go to movie theater every week to go see them.
00:53:10
Speaker
I just love savevior Savior shows. I love Olivia Benson. I think she's a real life superhero. Well, not real life because it's TV, but y'all know what I mean, right? Like she's a superhero. I love Savior shows. So a lot of times on those Sunday fun days and those Saturday fun days when I'm drinking my champagne and kicking it, having myself my brunch, because that's what it is. It's not breakfast, it's brunch because it's always late in the day. It's already always around 1.30. I'm watching those shows.
00:53:38
Speaker
Something to make me feel good. Will I watch a documentary? Like, yeah. But later on in the day, I need to feel good and upbeat at the beginning of my Sunday fun days. And what's happening lately my Saturday fun days as well. I need to feel good and upbeat.
00:53:54
Speaker
That's enough. craziness in the world. There's enough evil and bad in the world. I don't need it on my TV screen when I'm trying to reset. Who wants that?
00:54:06
Speaker
And for y'all women out there that love watching these murder documentaries and murder mysteries, when you go to bed, something is wrong with you. they've Psychiatrists have literally said, psychopaths do that.
00:54:18
Speaker
I'm not saying all women are psychopaths, but You venturing towards that area. If you watching murder mysteries in bed before you go to bed at night, that is not relaxing. if If murder and mayhem is what relaxes you before you go to bed, that's all I'm going to say.

Speaker
