Sibling Happy Hour Tease
00:00:45
Speaker
On today's episode, it's the Sibling Happy Hour. I'm here with my sis, Jay Andrea. We're going to be dilly-dallying a little bit. Then we're going to be talking about the Young Republican Scandal.
00:00:55
Speaker
And then we're going be talking about a parrot that solved a crime. But that's enough of the intro. Let's get to the show.
Behind-the-Scenes Stories
00:01:09
Speaker
What up, sis? What up, Rudda? I can't call it. I can't call it. Well, actually, I can. I can't call it because this has been a hell of a start to the show. Ladies and gentlemen, just to give you a little bit behind the scenes, I'm setting up here in the studio.
00:01:23
Speaker
And for some reason, my camera and my mic isn't working in the studio and I can't figure it out. And I just updated my laptop and I'm thinking my laptop did something yeah to cause my mic and my camera not to connect.
00:01:38
Speaker
And your laptop caught all kinds of hell. Oh, all kinds of hell. I'm cussing it out. I'm ready to throw it against the wall. And lo and behold, it was human error.
00:01:48
Speaker
I did not have the right plug plugged in. And as soon as I plugged it in, Everything popped up. And so yeah we're going to be a little disjointed here in the beginning, but we here.
00:02:00
Speaker
Heck of a day. Look, age is a mother. All right. My back hurt. My feet hurt. I thought I fractured my foot yesterday. Just walking. I was slipping and everything.
00:02:12
Speaker
That's how you do it. Literally just walking. I ah sprained my foot. I was stepping up or down a curb. It doesn't matter. i was just going up or down a curb.
00:02:24
Speaker
And I said, oh, okay. And sprained my foot. Just a normal sidewalk curb. Nothing fancy. I'm just over 40. Okay.
00:02:37
Speaker
Yeah, look, and sometimes we don't plug in all the plugs. so I didn't record it so many episodes. OK, I didn't record so many different things and wrong plug.
00:02:49
Speaker
And I should have known yeah because there's a tie tied around this particular plug because that's not a plug that I normally use. And it's tied around there because it doesn't normally go into the The computer.
00:03:01
Speaker
Yeah. It goes into a USB like separate thing. And I got that bad boy plugged in. And OK. but Yeah. Yeah. We have bigger issues to deal with.
D'Angelo's Passing and Social Media Mourning
00:03:12
Speaker
Yeah. One of them is the unfortunate passing. yeah a Mr. Brown sugar. D'Angelo. Yeah. Yeah. ah Cancer sucks. Cancer sucks. Passed away from reportedly from pancreatic cancer.
00:03:28
Speaker
Which is the suckiest cancer because the recovery the survival rate from pancreatic cancer, not high. Yeah. So not great. I've really, my heart goes out to his son of course lost his mother, Angie stone in that terrible car accident. And now his father, um, to cancer is so heartbreaking.
00:03:53
Speaker
Wait a minute. I didn't even know D'Angelo and Angie stone were married. Uh, I don't know that they were married, but they do have a son together. I mean that they had the son together. Excuse me. I didn't even know they had the son together. Yeah, they were dating for a long time.
00:04:07
Speaker
Oh, okay. Yeah. I hope that boy can sing.
00:04:12
Speaker
ah Actually, yes. He is a musician and he uses the stage name Suavo Twain. um Okay. Well, shout out to Suavo Twain. Your heart and some prayers go out to you. This is a, you know, this is a tragedy. It really is a tragedy.
00:04:29
Speaker
D'Angelo was only like 51 years. He was only 51. Yeah. And so a shout out to D'Angelo. I do have a bone to pick with the general public. What is that?
00:04:40
Speaker
Okay. And and I'm going to catch some heat for this. and I don't care. yeah I'm going to say what I'm going to say. It's my show. going to say what the hell I want to say. It is. yeah Yeah. I do not like when people put on their social media, rest in peace, I miss you so much. Because this is the reason why.
00:05:00
Speaker
Okay. Feels like they're fishing for attention.
00:05:06
Speaker
um Suffering silence like i did when Bernie Mac passed. ain't got to let everybody know that you're suffering from a loss. But that's the world we're living in, right? like I don't like it.
00:05:19
Speaker
I mean, that really is the world. People post what they eat. So they're definitely going to post if someone passes away that they even vaguely knew.
00:05:32
Speaker
Like, the you know what saying? So... even if they don't Even if they don't know the person at all, in the case of D'Angelo. Now, don't get me wrong. Like, when Bernie Mac passed, I was hurt.
00:05:45
Speaker
When Prince passed, you were hurt. yes And you might put on, you know, like a little remembrance or something on your social media. But you didn't talk about, I'm just so hurt today. i don't know if I can get out of bed because we lost a great one. And I mean, yes, we lost a great one.
00:06:02
Speaker
But you ain't know that person personally. And stop trying to act like you just lost your kin. Because fact of the matter is, sometimes people lose their kin and they just be like, oh, oh, well. So don't act like that when it's D'Angelo. Not saying that you can't love his music, but you ain't know that man.
00:06:19
Speaker
Yeah, but I still do feel... feel ah Sad about his passing is untimely. um He had another album due for us in like at least another decade, I think.
00:06:34
Speaker
We might my like, you know, he puts an album out there 15 years or something like that. But ah um we had one coming, like we were due for one in the next couple of years. So...
00:06:46
Speaker
we're all going to miss out on like some really amazing work from a really, really talented man. So I understand, yeah but are some people fishing? Yeah. Yeah. yeah I was talking to a friend of mine about the passing D'Angelo and they were like, yeah, I knew something wasn't right because he was supposed to be at the roots picnic this past summer.
00:07:08
Speaker
Oh, okay. And he canceled at the last minute. and And it was like, they got Maxwell to replace him. And I was like, that don't seem like a fair swap.
00:07:18
Speaker
but And the person the person got offended. They were like, what talking about? That is a fair swap. And I was like, no, I mean, D'Angelo's catalog is way better than Maxwell. and Well...
00:07:29
Speaker
ah I think it's it's ah it's the Michael Jackson Prince distinction, right? Like you have two talented people. One is a musician and one is like an entertainer or singer, right?
00:07:43
Speaker
Like D'Angelo played the guitar and the piano. He produced a lot of his music and wrote a lot of his music. And then have Maxwell doesn't play an instrument that I know of.
00:07:54
Speaker
I don't know that he writes his song. I mean, you know you know what I'm saying? So, but I still think They were both of that neo-soul era. I don't think it's too far off.
00:08:06
Speaker
Okay, they definitely were both neo-soul. Yes. Was Music Soul Child already there? Like, he was already a part of it? Because that's where I would have gone. I don't know.
00:08:17
Speaker
But, yeah, well... If somebody told me they heard Music Soul Child perform live and... Ain't that great. Really?
00:08:28
Speaker
Yes. That's surprising to me. ain't that surprise I was saying that it wasn't a fair trade because I guess I'm not the biggest fan of Maxwell. He got two songs to me. And the person was flabbergasted that I said only two songs. And I was like, no, I am also i am also flabbergasted by that. Yeah. No, this is it's that one song that I can't name and Woman's Worth. Now Woman's Worth.
00:08:53
Speaker
is actually my favorite song from both Maxwell and D'Angelo, if you put all their music combined. So he has my favorite song. Right. But D'Angelo just got more songs to me that hit.
00:09:08
Speaker
I... Don't know that I agree. I don't know that I really disagree. If you if you were to say, Jonna, you want to go to a D'Angelo concert or a Maxwell concert?
00:09:18
Speaker
I'm going to the D'Angelo concert. I did go to the D'Angelo concert. I went to a Black Messiah concert. i've I've seen Maxwell in concert, but it was at Essence Fest. Like, I didn't he was on He was performing.
00:09:32
Speaker
So right I caught the show. But it wasn't... yeah ah You know, but comparing them as performers, also D'Angelo, because he brought the house down. He did like five encores.
00:09:49
Speaker
Maxwell was okay. okay Okay. So I'm right in my assessment. I don't know about catalog-wise, Well, I think the Angelo had probably more stuff on the radio for sure.
00:10:03
Speaker
Oh, yeah. because Neo Soul, don't even know if they had a radio station. They had they only had an episode or TV show on BET, and it came on late at night, and it was literally Neo Soul.
00:10:16
Speaker
There
J.D. Vance and Racism
00:10:17
Speaker
was VH1 Soul, which is what watched in the morning when got ready for school. Oh, they had it in the morning? I don't trust it if they had it in the morning. It was morning. Well, because it was VH1 That was going to... Anything...
00:10:31
Speaker
Like MTV Black, you know. What? They didn't that that baby had no damn MTV Black. was saying, if they had, it would have been on very first. MTV Black.
00:10:46
Speaker
It would have been either in the early morning or in the evening. MTV Black, when we play Black music. Outside of yo MTV Raps.
00:10:59
Speaker
Oh, yeah. forgot about that.
00:11:04
Speaker
I forgot about that. But don't think MTV played Neo Soul. No. At all. No. They only played rap. I don't even think they really played r and b now Unless it was on TRL, that was like pretty much it. Yeah, it was it was pop R&B. Destiny's Child was definitely on there.
00:11:25
Speaker
TLC was definitely on MTV. like The more pop-leaning R&B. You probably didn't see Bilal. balau on MTV.
00:11:36
Speaker
You know what I'm saying? You know, those Shana Bilal, I also see in him in concert. He's fantastic. Like, but I'm just saying it's not going to on MTV.
00:11:47
Speaker
ah Okay. You know how I, speaking, still staying with music, you know how I butcher names, right? Like, butcher names. Butcher a lot of words, but specifically names. If you throw a name out there, I'm going butcher it.
00:12:00
Speaker
If I said i love the singer Shazza, Who do you think I'm talking about? Shaza. Yes. Shade?
00:12:11
Speaker
Nope. Shaza. Shabba Rex? No, no, no. I don't know who Shaza is.
00:12:24
Speaker
have no idea. Because the artist's name SZA. scor
00:12:31
Speaker
That's right. I said that to one of my friends this morning. And they just they just walked away. They was like, uh-uh. Uh-uh. Because at first i was talking about, you know who Leon Thomas is. He did Mutt, right?
00:12:47
Speaker
And then he had me second guessing, like, didn't he? Didn't I get it? And then I said, Shazza. And they were like, and I said it with absolute no confidence. Yeah. Yeah.
00:12:58
Speaker
No confidence. You just added letters that were not there. yeah Oh, when we get to the next segment, I'm definitely going to be adding letters to these names because they're going to be difficult for me to ah to tell y'all. So, hey, just go with it. Look, I'm not good.
00:13:15
Speaker
I'm not good with words. Okay. Yeah. Let's get over it. At this point, we're over 200 some episodes in. You know who we are. Right.
00:13:28
Speaker
Shoot, we had it close to 300. We had two. This is 266. Exactly. So by this time, y'all know Bruce struggles. Hey, didn't know. In the language department.
00:13:42
Speaker
I would say speaking department, but all of it. All of it. This is an interesting story.
The Quantico Trip Mishap
00:13:48
Speaker
Okay. This is an interesting story. So I'm going out. For those people who are not familiar with the D.C., Virginia area, Quantico is a base.
00:14:00
Speaker
You might know about Quantico from, like, Criminal Minds and stuff like that. It's one of the There a Quantico. There was a show, Quantico? Yes. Okay. Okay, I didn' know that. But it's a Marine base, FBI station there, what have you. I was going to visit a friend.
00:14:17
Speaker
Further south in Virginia. I don't have a car. I thought the Uber ride would be ridiculous. I was looking at Metro stops. Of course, they don't go out there.
00:14:28
Speaker
But I got the idea that Amtrak, because I take the Amtrak to go see mom all the time. Yeah. So I was like, oh I could take the Amtrak train to Quantico. Right?
00:14:40
Speaker
Because Quantico is actually a city. yeah The base is in the city. Quantico is actually a city. oh I was like, okay, cool. So I go online to buy my Amtrak ticket. It's only $12, so I'm happy about that.
00:14:51
Speaker
soon as I hit pay, it says the price ticket is no longer available. go back to the beginning to order. I said, wait a minute. What you mean? I go back. It's now doubled.
00:15:03
Speaker
It's $25. So I'm pissed about that initially. Right. Cause he's going to get it for 12, 25. but Once I hit cart, like the, what's in there? It should be. But Amtrak, I guess they'd be on some shady stuff. So I get my ticket.
00:15:17
Speaker
You know me, I'm nervous about being anywhere late to running late, being sweaty, missing anything. yeah So I plan my trip to get to the train station, which is literally a free shuttle ride for me.
00:15:32
Speaker
That's only 11 minutes, but it's the rush hour on Saturday. And where I'm going, it could take 35 minutes. So I leave relatively early. yeah So early, I'm sitting at the train station for an hour.
00:15:45
Speaker
No big deal. I play video games on my phone. Hop on the train. It's two stops from where I'm where from where i'm located, right? It's just boom, boom. And I'm there. I get off at the station.
00:15:56
Speaker
My friend is coming to pick me up at the station. And they're like, is the station near the base? I was like, I don't know. I've never been here before. I think it's near the base. I can't get on the base.
00:16:10
Speaker
Wow, I can't be on the base because it's the Amtrak. Why would they put it on the base? It's not on the base. Jay, I get off the train, get on the station, look around. On one side, I see, oh, that's definitely the base because that looks like that's real secure. On the other side, I see basically a town.
00:16:27
Speaker
So i was like, oh, okay. It must be like on the border between the base and the town. Yeah. So I'm like, okay, just pick a landmark and I will walk to the landmark.
00:16:40
Speaker
It's all highways around here. Okay. Just find a landmark and I'll i'll get there. Yeah. They find a landmark. It's about three miles away. First, I was going to walk, but don't want to be sweaty.
00:16:51
Speaker
So I was like, I'll just get an Uber. Yeah. But I'm in the train station and there's nobody working there. There's nobody there. I'm all alone. And I start to get nervous because...
00:17:04
Speaker
I then realized, no, I'm on the base. The train station is on the base. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm in sweats. Oh, no.
00:17:16
Speaker
My ID is slightly cracked, which automatically means it's invalid. Right. If you got a pill or a crack on your ID, it's invalid. I got a backpack with some liquor and some snacks.
00:17:27
Speaker
Mm hmm. bald-haired Black man, and I'm on this military base, and it's not just a military base, it's Quantico. I'm nervous.
00:17:38
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. I was like, I'm going to start walking, and I'm like, no, because I don't want no people to just jump out the woodworks. Where are you? Look, at today's climate. Yeah, are you here? Yeah, at today's climate, I don't know what's going to happen.
00:17:52
Speaker
I'm like, you know what? I'm going to order Uber to see if it can get to me. And if it can get to me, it can get me out of here. So sure enough, Uber comes in. I get in the Uber and I say, hey, man, ah you seem like you come around here often.
00:18:05
Speaker
are we on the base right now? He was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're on the base right now. But I was like, but it's houses and everything. Oh, yeah, that's where the civilians live. On the base? On the base. Yes. I was like, the Quantico is actually a city.
00:18:17
Speaker
Army kids grow up on base like that's... They travel from base to base. Yeah, but... No, he said it was civilians, so it wasn't even like army families. It's civilians also live in this base.
00:18:32
Speaker
Oh, so you just... If you work there... You could be, ah you know, just cleaning the bathrooms. You on base. You on base. are You on deck. Okay. So I said, oh, okay. ah Like, is there some special thing to get on and off the base?
00:18:48
Speaker
He's like, yeah, you got to go into the office. You got to give IDs and got to get paperwork. You got to get a special clearance to get in and out here. And I was like, oh, you did that? He's like, yeah, I pick up people in on this base all the time.
00:18:59
Speaker
I was like, good thing I called you. So I get off the base and sure enough, First of all, the base is large. Yeah. It took a long time to get off the base. And then we passed it through the gates. And I'm nervous because I'm like, are they going stop? Because you know me, I don't want to go to jail for no reason.
00:19:15
Speaker
I'm going to to jail just because know the Amtrak station drop you off right in the middle of the base. Yeah. ah Boy, I'd be sweating bullets. what This is right after Pete Hanks had just gained that damn pep rally. And I'm like, going to make an example out of my ass. I'm going to... At first I said I'm going to the brig or the barracks.
00:19:37
Speaker
I was like, I don't even know what the prison is called, but I'm going there. You're going there. Boy, they're going to ship you somewhere. but Where are they going to ship me?
00:19:48
Speaker
I don't know. you are ah First of all, all I know is not knowing that you even took this dumb trip. I would have been like, my brother disappeared.
00:20:04
Speaker
they just have They just have video of him leaving his apartment. He just never came back. He just never came back. And I never saw him again. We have no idea what happened to this man. there will I think there are cameras at the Amtrak station.
00:20:19
Speaker
but Hopefully. Hopefully they think to look. I mean, really, honestly, once you walk up that building, I'm telling where you went. How do we know where to look? Well, the person that I was going to meet would have been like, never showed up.
00:20:34
Speaker
So they would have gotten in contact with somebody. But the thing of it is, so I was talking to a person that's worked at Quantico and a couple of FBI people in there. It's like, yeah, you're making a bigger deal out of it than what it actually was. It's like military police is actually very pleasant.
00:20:50
Speaker
And they would just would have escorted you off of base. I was like, what type of escort? They're like, no, I'm sure this happens. more often than you think. I'm sure it does.
00:21:01
Speaker
and And you know what? Amtrak... right Ask for my little like military ID or something if somebody is going to buy a ticket to this particular station. But you don't have you don't have to be part the military.
00:21:15
Speaker
like You could just go to the Amtrak. I mean, you could get off the Quantico. No, they need to have some sort of warning. They do need to have a warning. Let you know, hey, this station is on the base.
00:21:27
Speaker
There needs to be some sort of warning because the way I would have been like,
00:21:35
Speaker
Lord Jesus. My family will go see me again. Jay, I was circled. They will send me to Nicaragua. Jay, I was circling the parking lot of the Amtrak station on base.
00:21:49
Speaker
Just like, where am I going? Where am I supposed to do? It is dark. that I don't want to go into any of the little, they had a little dominoes. I didn't want to go into dominoes and start asking questions. I didn't want to ask questions.
00:22:00
Speaker
Okay. I just wanted to get the hell up out of there. I was like, you know what? I'll just catch the next train, next Amtrak train and just get hell up out of here. The way I want to stay put until the next train came.
00:22:13
Speaker
I would love to see a camera of the station of me just walking around going back and forth, back and forth. It looks sketchy. Which looks even more suspicious. With a loose backpack on. What's in your backpack, bruh?
00:22:26
Speaker
Why are you here? so Alcohol, snacks. Like this. Listen. None of it's good. None of it's good.
00:22:36
Speaker
No, none of it's good. But you know what, though? Speaking of none of it being good.
00:22:43
Speaker
Ask the question at the top, is this country racist? And some people are automatically going to like, no, it's not racist. I don't know what evidence that you would have that to say that it isn't racist because I have- a lot of evidence to the contrary. Over 400 years to prove that it is.
00:23:00
Speaker
But it's not going to end because the next generation of politicians seem like they're worse than our current crowd. And Politico just dropped a story explaining how, and going to get into that next.
Young Republican Leaders' Chats
00:23:25
Speaker
Jay, there was an article on Politico and the title of the article is just like it's a long headline. OK. And the headline reads, I love Hitler.
00:23:37
Speaker
Leaked messages expose young Republicans racist chats. Thousands of private messages reveal young GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and grape.
00:23:51
Speaker
Ladies and gentlemen, I say great instead of the other word because... Everybody everybody knows. Okay. Some people don't know. so So you said in in the you know behind the scenes that you were not surprised about what this article revealed. And I'm going to get into the details of it in a minute. But just what do you mean by the fact that you were not surprised?
00:24:14
Speaker
Not surprised that this kind of behavior and rhetoric is still alive and well in the United States of America. No, I'm not surprised.
00:24:27
Speaker
Okay, so what does the article tell us? The Young Republican, the leaders of the Young Republican organizations in New York, Kansas, Arizona, and Vermont participated in a private group chat where thousands of messages containing racist, anti-Semitic, and violent language were exchanged over a seven-month period. The leaked Telegram chat named Restore War Room included numerous offensive ah statements including praise for Hitler,
00:24:53
Speaker
jokes about gas chambers, great and slavery and racist insults directed at black and Indian individuals. The scandal has sparked national outrage and resignations with the young Republicans National Federation calling for immediate accountability and removal of these individual chats.
00:25:12
Speaker
So these messages were sent by the young Republican leaders, specific quotes, including, calling Black individuals monkeys and watermelon people and joking about sending political enemies to the gas chamber.
00:25:26
Speaker
Now, I will say, i have heard, you know, the racist jokes about Black people and watermelon. But to call us the watermelon people, that's that's original.
00:25:40
Speaker
It's not. It's not that original. It's also not that... um Clever? Like, yeah, at all. Like, At all. i mean, the message is they love the watermelon people. Like, it's not even to me really clear that they're talking about us.
00:26:00
Speaker
yeah like it Like, I think it would take me some time to be like, oh, we talk because black people eat watermelon. a pear Everybody eats watermelon, by Everybody does. But okay. And so that, okay. Yeah. Y'all are not I say I'm not surprised by any of this because I'm not. and But what I'm not surprised by the most is just the lack of originality.
00:26:25
Speaker
He's like, you're going to be racist. Be clever. and Like, be clever. Like, actually be funny. Like, everything in here is just like, the dude. ah The watermelon people. Just being some butthead of racism.
00:26:39
Speaker
Yeah. Like, it's so lame. And it's so tired. And I was like... I go to a zoo if I want to watch a monkey play ball. First of all, if you watch anybody play ball, you watching a black person. So you must not be watching nothing that involves.
00:26:58
Speaker
Well, golf. Uh, Tiger, Tiger, Tiger Woods, y'all. Tiger a ain't been played. He ain't the only one. He just opened the door. We don't give a damn what he considers himself.
00:27:13
Speaker
What does the world consider him? A black man. No, we can't do that because then then that argument can be used against trans people. So you can't say what the world looks at you as is what somebody says they are. No, it cannot. It cannot. Okay. this is ok Because race is a social construct.
00:27:32
Speaker
It is based on people's perception. You're true. this that that Gender is not a social construct. You're right. Well, these people weren't just like regular people. These were people that were chairs and even a state senator that were participating in this chat. So most people would be like, well who's the young Republican leader national conference? Like, what does this mean?
00:27:56
Speaker
These are your staffers. These are the the people who are the next in line to be politicians, to be state senators like the like Samuel Douglas from Vermont, to be state representatives, to be House of Representatives, to be senators for Congress.
00:28:14
Speaker
These are the next people that's in line because they're already working with these people. So that's the reason why this is so very, very important. This is the next, this is the youth Yeah.
00:28:27
Speaker
Of the Republican Party. That's going to be the establishment in 15 to 20 years. Yeah. I would like to add, I don't know if you were going to talk about J.D. Vance's response.
00:28:40
Speaker
I was, but we could good get to it right now. Yeah. Go ahead. Go ahead. Because I guess. so Well, so this is what I will say. Like both Republican and Democratic leaders have condemned elite messages and and and the young Republican National Federation was swift to declare such conduct shameful,
00:29:00
Speaker
unworthy of any Republican and directly contradicts the principles of our movement upholds. ah ah No, it doesn't because it's kind of falling in line with a lot of the policies that y'all got going on now.
00:29:12
Speaker
But OK. Yeah. And so a lot of people were fired. Some people's jobs were rescinded. And then we get to J.D. Vance. He attempted to downplay the severity by characterizing the messages as edgy, offensive jokes.
00:29:31
Speaker
Have at J.D. Vance, J. So this man says they are edgy, offensive jokes made by kids. And kids do stupid things, especially young boys.
00:29:49
Speaker
This was not a couple of 12-year-olds group chat. To be in the young Republicans, you must be at least 18 years old and no older than 40. So these are not children. They're not kids.
00:30:04
Speaker
And it women. And there were women. And there were women in this chat. Or at least one woman in this chat. Yes. Right. So he he he cautioned against allowing a very offensive, stupid joke.
00:30:17
Speaker
It wasn't a joke. None of these things were jokes. Please stop calling them edgy. and stupid jokes. That is not what they are.
00:30:28
Speaker
From a group chat to quote, ruin someone's life. Listen
00:30:36
Speaker
to me now. What you just said was we shouldn't use the bad character and bad actions a person displays
00:30:51
Speaker
As criteria for how we should treat them.
00:30:57
Speaker
And how they should get employment. Yeah. We are, you are asking us to ignore the fact that these young people are racist, anti-Semitic,
00:31:16
Speaker
ah misogynist, Like we're supposed to ignore that because it's just a stupid joke by some kids. Why ruin their lives? And this is the kind of thing that has judges ruling in grape cases to not penalize the perpetrator because it could quote unquote ruin their chances.
00:31:41
Speaker
Nobody ever thinks about the person on the other side of that action, on the other side of that joke. That person is supposed to just suck it up and be the bigger person and let this but the offenders a run roughshod all over everybody.
00:32:03
Speaker
We're supposed to have grace for them when they could not muster a monochrome of grace for us.
00:32:14
Speaker
J.D. Vance.
00:32:19
Speaker
I have an entire ass and I am requesting at your earliest convenience for you to kiss it.
00:32:30
Speaker
Yeah.
00:32:32
Speaker
Yeah. Cause it's see, and people, the people that are trying to downplay it, People try to say, oh, kids are kids. no No. Show some of this stuff to children and tell me what the response children would have to some of these messages.
00:32:51
Speaker
They would be offended and appalled. Don't act like kids are capable of this kind of malice. But these aren't kids. These are grown adults.
00:33:01
Speaker
That's what I'm saying. Don't put it off on youth because there are plenty of children in this country, actual children in this country that would be offended and appalled to see some of the things. You can't even show them all the things because they're too upsetting and too harmful and too violent. But for what you could show them, what you could tell them. They would be offended and appalled.
00:33:25
Speaker
Like, you've got to be kidding me. Kids are not dumb. They know the difference between right and wrong. The people who don't are these sociopaths, are these psychopaths. They don't know the difference between right and wrong.
00:33:39
Speaker
So going back to them trying to essentially whitewash, whitewash these comments, Why is
Racism in Politics Impact
00:33:49
Speaker
it so important?
00:33:50
Speaker
Because when you see the vice president try to whitewash comments like this and you see the volume and venomous of the speech, of the hateful speech that the younger generation of this party is participating in, you can see the future of the party.
00:34:11
Speaker
Yeah. That's the reason why these are not just people that don't have a future in the Republican Party. Their future right now might be low a little shaky, but then again, maybe not.
00:34:24
Speaker
i got They could do an apology tour come right back, right? yeah And so these are the people that are shaping policy, that are shaping laws in the country now and in the future.
00:34:40
Speaker
This is what you're combating. And so when you see when you see people got canceled for for saying, hey, what happened to Charlie Kirk was horrible.
00:34:53
Speaker
Nobody should die.
00:34:56
Speaker
But he said some foul stuff. yeah And they got condemned and canceled for just saying, well, no, I'm not saying anything bad about him. I'm just saying to you what he said.
00:35:10
Speaker
Yes. But we're always supposed to have grace for the perpetrator while the people who are being oppressed, while the people who are being marginalized, while people who are being harmed had violence brought against them are supposed to be giving all of this grace are supposed to be get, just get over it. Be the bigger person.
00:35:33
Speaker
No, I think JD Vance says something along the lines of, Oh, that we should grow up and focus on the real issues rather than what kids say in group chats.
00:35:45
Speaker
So let me get this straight. You're asking the people who were offended and harmed to be grown up and simultaneously infantilizing the perpetrators.
00:35:56
Speaker
Hmm.
00:35:59
Speaker
And y'all do this. It doesn't matter that these are grown people in a group chat. It doesn't matter. Y'all do this.
00:36:09
Speaker
You'll infantilize them
00:36:14
Speaker
to ah to hopefully garner some empathy. Child, please. Go somewhere else with that because you're not going to find a drop, not a speck, not a molecule of empathy over here for me.
00:36:26
Speaker
Lose everything, kids. so i Every last one of y'all. So I asked a question at the top, is this country racist? Here's a prime example.
00:36:38
Speaker
You're like, well, these people were just saying some stuff. These are the people that are going to be shaping policy. Racists or racism is the ability to impact the lives of marginalized people based off of discrimination and hate.
00:36:54
Speaker
Bigotry is, don't like you for the color of your skin, your religion, everything like that, but I don't have any power to affect your life on a day-to-day basis besides just being an asshole.
00:37:05
Speaker
Right? Mm-hmm. Racism is having that bigotry and then having the power to affect somebody's life. Yeah. By creating policies and laws.
00:37:18
Speaker
And they do this type of stuff. And the reason why the J.D. Vance is, you know, downplayed is because they look at marginalized people as less than. they're yeah They're beneath them.
00:37:28
Speaker
Yeah. And I've been watching. Have you been watching this Ed Gein, like, TV show on Netflix? Yeah. I know who he is, but no, I didn't know he was given a TV show for some reason.
00:37:41
Speaker
No, no, Ed getting like the hit, hit, the, so he's tied to like Psycho and Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Those movies are based off of him and his crimes. Yes, I know who he is. No, no, no, I'm talking, so i'm telling the audience, but also so yeah, you forget that we are, we actually, that not just talking me and you, we are recording you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right. I forgot about that.
00:38:02
Speaker
Yes. and And I think it's Gein. I think it's Ed Gein. I mean, I don't really care. I don't really care about mispronouncing that man's name. Oh, it is Gein? Yeah, it's Gein, because I've heard it several times. I got that name right. Anyway, so I'm watching this, and part of one of the episodes is Alfred Hitchcock, who created the movie Psycho based off Ed Gein.
00:38:23
Speaker
Mm-hmm. And he was enthralled with the fact that it was the first like real slasher movie to really show blood and guts and things like that, even though it's very tame for now. But it was the first movie. And people were getting sick and throwing up in the movie theater. And he was loving he was like the shock and awe.
00:38:40
Speaker
He was loving it. It was great. couple of years later, he goes to the movie theater and goes to see that these movies have now become a genre of their own. they They were labeled...
00:38:52
Speaker
sex horror, right? Because they would have sex in it horror and, you know, Friday the 13th, Texas a Chainsaw Massacre is like all the same thing. yeah But what really, to me, as I look at it, it's torture horror.
00:39:08
Speaker
Like the hostiles and the saws. I don't get a kick out of those movies because you're just watching people getting tortured. Not yeah just people being killed. People being tortured.
00:39:20
Speaker
Yeah. There's a difference where as a boogeyman, he's going kill you in your sleep or he chasing you your woods. He's going stab you. Yeah. These are people that set up crazy concoctions to literally torture you.
00:39:31
Speaker
Right. And people are going to the movie theater and they're unfazed by it. And I was talking to a friend of mine and I was like, you know, we talk about we've evolved from cavemen, but we're still extremely barbaric.
00:39:43
Speaker
Yeah. Extremely barbaric. Now, I said all of that because I bet you're wondering what what does this have to do with the young Republicans? I say all of that to say this. It's interesting. It's very, very interesting that they would look at minorities as less than and say they are beneath them when they are holding these barbaric ideals and thoughts.
00:40:07
Speaker
Who's the real group of people that are less than? It seems to me that it would be the people who wish nothing but hate and agony to people that don't even bother them.
00:40:20
Speaker
Yeah, here's the thing. They do not see us as human. Mm-hmm. And they also do not care about our feelings or well-being.
00:40:32
Speaker
They do not see anything wrong with these jokes. Right? To a certain extent, because they would never want it to become public.
00:40:45
Speaker
And they didn't. Matter of fact, there were quotes in the text exchange. If this text exchange ever becomes public, we're cooked. And they are cooked. Sort of. Yeah. fur For now. For now.
00:40:56
Speaker
For now. I just, i the what bothered me was not the text chain because there are millions of those all across this country. I am positive. I'm positive that people you know, live near, and work with are in group chats like this.
00:41:15
Speaker
my What annoys me is Vance's framing of it in the same type of framing that is used all the time specifically for white men.
00:41:28
Speaker
As like, oh, it's just the steps of a kid. Boys will be boys. Because it is uncomfortable to look at the deeper systemic ideology And honestly, lack of morality that people you are mentoring
00:41:54
Speaker
have, right? Or the lack thereof or whatever. you You make it so that we have to say things like Black Lives Matter, right?
00:42:07
Speaker
Because you so definitively dismiss our humanity.
00:42:18
Speaker
And you are dismissive of any kind of violence towards us.
00:42:26
Speaker
That's why we say it. That's why we have hashtag say her name, hashtag say his name. That is why we call the names out. Because these are human beings on the other side of these quote unquote jokes.
00:42:42
Speaker
Why do they never ever get the kind of care y'all give to really, really shitty people? I have never in my life shown this level of care to somebody who ain't worth a damn.
00:42:59
Speaker
What?
00:43:02
Speaker
I can't. So I ask you guys out there again, is this country racist? And I'll answer the question for you in a Stone Cold Steve Austin voice.
00:43:15
Speaker
Hell yeah. and Now that sounded like Macho Man. Hey, babe. I said, hell yeah. There it is. I said, hell yeah.
00:43:26
Speaker
Hell yeah, this country is racist. Yeah, that first ah first was definitely a Macho Man Randy Savage. And a Hover Throat. Bruce is going to get some to drink. We'll be right back.
00:43:47
Speaker
Jay, I was watching I Know What You Did last summer. Mm-hmm.
Parrot Solves Cold Case
00:43:53
Speaker
The newest movie. That's the same title as the old movie in 97. They didn't change the title.
00:43:59
Speaker
I didn't know there was a new one. Yeah, there was a new movie. And I was watching it. And as I'm watching it, I was like, look at these kids looking like the Scooby-Doo gang. Right? Yeah. And that was the last time Scooby-Doo was the last time I'd seen an animal actively involved in criminal investigations. Right?
00:44:17
Speaker
Yeah, there is this because it don't make no... It don't make no sense. It don't make no sense. Right. And that's, you know, television. Now, there are crime-sniffing dogs.
00:44:28
Speaker
Yes. Right? I don't know they sniff crime. they do that stuff But they... think Criminal activities. How about that? Sure.
00:44:39
Speaker
Yes. They can smell bombs and cocaine and all the drugs in the communities. yeah Yes. Correct. Yes. They also can stop assailants. Yes, they can. Yes. Yes.
00:44:52
Speaker
But what they don't do is help solve murders by telling you who the murderer was.
00:45:02
Speaker
No, because unlike Scooby-Doo, they cannot talk. They cannot. Well, Scooby kind of, yeah he kind of talked. He was speaking. Yeah, he was talking. But that leads me to this story that I saw.
00:45:16
Speaker
yeah It's coming out of Brazil. And ladies and gentlemen, this is a true story. This parrot solved a cold case murder just this month. Now, know what you're thinking. No, this is not a new Rio movie.
00:45:32
Speaker
Which I believe was joe Jamie Foxx was in there. was couple people in Rio. It's not. It's not Rio 3 or 4. No, this is Rio. Okay. For some reason.
00:45:44
Speaker
And it is in Rio de Janeiro. So yeah this story took place, like i said, in Rio de de Janeiro, Brazil, where police had been unable to make progress on a murder case that had gone unsolved since 2010, 15 years.
00:45:58
Speaker
fifteen years A pet parrot reportedly spoke the name of the primary suspect in the case whenever police visit visited the victim's family, prompting investigators to look deeper into the individual being named.
00:46:12
Speaker
Based on this odd but persistent witness testimony by the parrot, detectives reexamined old evidence and confronted the suspect. who then confessed to the crime after lengthy questioning.
00:46:26
Speaker
This led to the parent being credited as a key witness with legal experts commenting it was the first time a parent's statement had ever been accepted in Brazilian legal proceedings.
00:46:37
Speaker
The birth was later given an honorary detective title by local law enforcement, cementing his status as a minor celebrity and sparking debates about the role of animal intelligence and criminal justice.
00:46:50
Speaker
So this... This guy thought that he had gotten away with a murder for 15 years. And his parent was like, nah, Michael did it. Michael did it.
00:47:01
Speaker
Michael did it. Every time the cops came around, Michael did it. Michael did it. And the cops was like, maybe Michael did it. And he knew the dude, Michael got... I'm just making up the name of the accused.
00:47:15
Speaker
Or no, the guy that was convicted. This dude got questioned by the cops. He's just like, know what? Y'all got me. i can I can't, I can't outbeat no parent. I got away for 15 years.
00:47:25
Speaker
Yeah. I went ahead and I did that. It's funny story. That's the dumbest it's one thing I've ever heard. wow Why did no one consider that a family member who probably knew Michael did it just train the bird to say Michael did it.
00:47:49
Speaker
Like where her the bird, the bird, parrots mimic. Right, right, right. yeah Why in the, why would they think the parrot is talking?
00:48:04
Speaker
The parrot is mimicking something. No, parrots can talk sometimes. They they can have a conversation. I honestly, I'd like to speak with a birdologist about that.
00:48:16
Speaker
oh Is that what they call a birdologist? A viologist, a viologist. I'd like to speak with somebody who who does birds for a living. OK, you're saying you're saying a family member could have told him. But what if the victim, as they were dying, told the parrot?
00:48:38
Speaker
Michael did it.
00:48:41
Speaker
I just... And every time the cops come around, the parrot saying that. Every time the cops... Yeah, because somebody trained the parrot to say it. You can train a parrot to say words, but not to say words on command.
00:48:56
Speaker
and Let me guess, was it the same detective that came to visit the victim's family? The detective assigned to the case? For 15 years? i don't know how Brazilian cold cases work, but I don't think ah the same detective was with it for 15 years.
00:49:13
Speaker
All I know is this is probably the dumbest police work. And then he confessed to the crime after a after lengthy questioning. They had that man in there so long.
00:49:26
Speaker
Probably beating the hell out of him. but ah you know The already told us. And he finally said, listen, fine, okay. I can't take no more. Because somebody was like, I'm pretty sure he did it.
00:49:39
Speaker
Let's train this parent.
00:49:43
Speaker
Like, y'all kidding Is that possibility? Yes. Hey, look, I'm just telling you what the story says. The fact that that is a possibility means that this key quote unquote witness testimony cannot be.
Parrot's Role Questioned
00:49:58
Speaker
Please. Don't matter. He confessed. It don't matter. He did it. He confessed. He confessed. Did he do it? I don't know. But he confessed.
00:50:08
Speaker
Yeah, there are false confessions. theres so this is This is not good police work. I feel like this is a comedy. I mean, we already had Turner and Hooch. Maybe we had right Turner and and... What's a bird name? I was about to say Pooch.
00:50:23
Speaker
Tweety? I mean, Poochie could be a good parrot name. No, I don't. That's a dog. Poochie. Pooch. dan adam Actually, we know human beings nicknamed Poochie.
00:50:34
Speaker
Well, yeah.
00:50:37
Speaker
thought this was funny the parent got a detective little thing is little minor celebrity i'm gonna go visit brazil and go meet this parent like you cracking cold cases this is truly truly terrible 15 years no 15 years it took 15 years and they cracked this case no y'all just should have gone over that evidence again because the it was already right there in your face ah well animals do be telling your business, whether you want them to or not.
00:51:10
Speaker
All right. All I know is yeah if I'm the lieutenant or the sergeant or whatever, and my detective's coming to me, Lou, now I know you're good at this.
00:51:24
Speaker
Just hear me out. but I think I got a witness to this cold case. Now hear me out.
00:51:34
Speaker
Spare it.
00:51:37
Speaker
but so i had some well
00:51:41
Speaker
Get your ass out my office. Go back over that evidence. Go back over that file and figure something out. But don't you come back in here talk about no damn parent.
00:51:53
Speaker
Go and do real police work. ah I know for a fact. that it didn't take them 15 years to pick up on this parrot saying this victim's name.
00:52:05
Speaker
So I guarantee you those detectives had been talking to their lieutenant like, look, this parrot is pointing us in a direction. If you don't stop telling me about this damn parrot, and then finally the lieutenant it was just like, you know what?
00:52:18
Speaker
Just look into it. I don't care no more.
00:52:22
Speaker
Just bring the guy in. We'll talk to him for as long as it takes to get him to confess. We got to put hands on them a little bit. Okay. Then we got to put everybody.
00:52:34
Speaker
That's what it is. Oh my goodness. I thought it was funny and interesting. Ladies and gentlemen, my sister is a hater. I hate all animals no that want to do good in the community.
00:52:44
Speaker
No, that is dumb. Nobody in there thought, you know, maybe somebody's trying to pair do that. It didn't hurt the question.
00:52:56
Speaker
You know, they reexamine the evidence and they say, you know what, let's go ahead and question them They should have just did that in the first place. right prop What if they did? what if they did and they couldn't crack them, but they was like, hey, you know, Jasper the parrot doesn't say it.
00:53:13
Speaker
Every time we come up over here that you done did it. Now, when have you ever known Jasper the lie? Right. Listen. I haven't. That's right. Jasper. Listen.
00:53:25
Speaker
Miss Precious Perfect Ruffle Feathers.
00:53:31
Speaker
I did you. but sit yeah
00:53:37
Speaker
As the murderer. What they be doing in the first 48? Because they always talk about somebody that says something to get them to confess. Yes, that's that that's exactly how they do it. Now, why would they say that about you?
00:53:50
Speaker
Hmm? Why would Miss Precious Perfect Ruffle Feathers say that about you? It's the fact that you're saying that and you're not getting tongue-tied at all that really makes me jealous.
00:54:03
Speaker
Because I'm sitting here saying Shazza when I'm trying to say Shazza. And the is, I bet you you've never mispronounced RZA. Nope, never.
00:54:14
Speaker
Or JZA. Nope, never. And so SZA. That's Shazza. I just put an A in there. The same name. Did I put an A or an H? No, put an H in there. Both.
00:54:28
Speaker
like
00:54:32
Speaker
It's S-H-A-Z-A. Yes. Yes. I did. No problem with the Wu-Tang Clan.
00:54:44
Speaker
None. RZA the JZA. Inspector Deck. ODB. You got. Matthew Man. Yeah. No problem. Rakim. Ghostface Killer.
00:54:55
Speaker
But all you do is just swap out the R or the G with an S. I'm still having trouble with it. You done said RZA and JZA, but I'm still having. I still want to say Shazza. SZA.
00:55:07
Speaker
Nah. Shazza. boy hey Anyway, Jay, what do you want to tell these people? What do you want to tell these people before we go? don't have nothing to say. Listen, this is why we don't trust the police, though. Because y'all using parrots
