Hey, guys, welcome to another episode of Selective Ignorance.

However, before we get to this week's episode, I want to remind you guys to purchase my book No Holds Barred, a dual manifesto of sexual exploration and power.

So feel free to go to your local bookstores preferably queer owned, black owned, or woman owned to support them.

But also just click the button on Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, or wherever you read your books.

Again.

That is No Holds Barred, a dual manifesto of sexual exploration and power, written by yours truly and my co host of the Decisions Decisions podcast, Weezy.

Make sure y'all get that.

Now, let's get to this week's episode.

This is Mandy B.

Welcome to Selective Ignorance, a production of the Black Effect Podcast Network and Iart Radio.

Yo Yo yo, Welcome to another episode of Selective Ignorance.

I'm your girl, Mandy B.

And here we mind our business except when the tea is scorching and the government is lying on This week and this is America, the Epstein file are being released.

Yes, those files, y'all know, the ones that they said didn't exist.

Of course, of course.

But somehow now they are out and about and ready for us to explore.

But we'll also see because they're redacting mad shit out of it.

So who knows what we're gonna get.

It's giving a fallacy.

Meanwhile, the Maggers are finally burning their little red hat.

And not because Trump is out here showing us again that he doesn't care about basic human rights.

Oh no, it's because he might have allegedly put a little dick in his mouth.

That's the line in the sand for the Republicans apparently.

And why are the barbs in the White House?

Why is Trump acting like he gives a fuck about Nigeria.

Well, we're getting into that as well.

Then in Celebrities say the darness things, Repper the Game admits that he's losing sleep because he realized he wasn't a good man and wasted women's time.

White ceiling, Sir, that's not insomnia, it's called consequences.

And is this another case of men no better?

They just choose not to do better.

We're gonna get into that.

And then also apparently all these celebrities are meeting with rabots.

I feel really blessed to be able to sit here with dj D and just take accountability.

Do they even speak the same language.

I don't know what's happening, y'all grab your side eyes and your ignorance because we're diving into it, and per usual, I am joined by my super producers.

I got journalism Jason Gang Gang Gang, which unfortunately he's not here for.

He's not here to get inside of a king the side inside, but that's what I'm saying.

He puts something he back from the back.

I just like Redactive File.

When y'all kept saying that, I thought it was the nigga with the curly hair with the glasses.

That's the white white the rappertoire.

That's who I always thought y'all were trying to get me next to.

Because I see a lot of his videos.

I don't see black.

He's not white.

He's like he's.

Because he's he's light skinned.

But he's from Brooklyn though shout the tour.

I think it's from like Boston.

So I hate Drake.

First watching it, I want some reasons this hates Drake.

I won't be watching that by the way.

By the way, I just love the white black whatever polkadont everybody just want to get off by talking about how they hate the biracial Drake And ain't nobody got time to be seeing or listening to why people hate people?

Well listen, well, we're gonna get it.

We get into the topics.

I have more Drake slander, but that's that's neither here.

That's neither here nor that we'll get We'll get to that.

This is not going to be a podcast that we lean on hate Drake.

Okay, we don't not like him?

Yeah I don't, I don't, I don't know.

I listened.

I was listening to this ship the other day.

But where the shoe?

Where the shoe?

Fish?

I'm gonna make the nigga wear it.

That's it.

But I'm gonna answer your question directly though about about the duality of Jason Lee.

And yeah, yeah, give me the.

I'm not gonna let that nigga soil the brand, like the brand the brand of Jason Lee.

Like niggas know me around here.

You know my body, you know what I'm saying and so like, and when they know me, they don't know me anything the way they know him.

And I'm the bossip nigga nigga, and niggas don't know me like that.

Niggas know me in a different kind of way.

The niggas know me in a way of like dignity and respect and like, you know, to let us know like how real it is.

So yeah, I'm not gonna let him soil the brand.

I'm Jason Lee and that's just what it is.

Period.

But versus but versus get that both.

By the way, I love Jason, So of course the next time you next time and because you're about to be up here, like y'all about to get to know this whenever that motherfucker says foot on Atlanta soiling.

It's been a long time coming.

But he got the ancient Josh, so that makes him him.

Yeah, and that's how like A stands for him.

Right.

But here's the thing, right, like people that if you see me in the street, right and you call me Jason, I know what time period in my life you know me from right from like eighth grade to through college and all of that.

If you call me Jah, I know what point after.

I May two thousand and nine and beyond.

So the name came about in like two thousand and.

Six, okay, And like, I don't know if we have time to go through this whole, Lord.

Not, but it's not.

We'll get we'll get get We'll get.

Well, get that eventually.

But yeah, but the whole because you smoke greenery, I thought you were Jamaican too, people.

That's that's normally.

Normally, that's how it's I would say that, and people are like, that's the far Like I hate to break you, I hate to bust your bubble player, but that's.

Not I'm actually African American.

Said, I'm a nigga.

Okay, but but the disappointment in people's face when I tell him it's not Rostar is always funny.

But yeah, but people know me from being a certain kind of way.

So now you know now that I came up in the world and I can be on this here Steam platform, you know what I'm saying.

I can I can introduce people to both of us.

Okay, I love that.

Well, then we'll start off shout to shout out.

He came up this year.

About to lit and ship.

What did.

You know out of Philly?

He's like a he's like a political commentation.

We stopped adding to it, like what would we got the whole Verses episode, we.

Got the white Toray black would probably be like Muslim yeah, Muslim yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Philly yeah yeah.

So we're gonna start off I want to I want to kind of just you know, what we're gonna start doing is sharing our ignorant moments throughout the weeks.

And I want to start with you.

I know my ignorant moment that I've had recently that I've am going to blindly share on this podcast for that to keep judging me for all of eternity.

But do you have an ignorant moment that you that you realize that you want to share with the Actually.

And it took me a minute to think about it, but it was really that long ago.

This should be happening, right.

So I'm on the couch, I get a text from my lady that says I just got into a confrontation with the white man.

The fuck Now we're on the phone.

What's going on?

She says, she's at the gas station trying to get gas.

Some white man in a home depot truck.

Was I guess trying to take the spot that.

You know, people get greedy at the gas statione.

She's trying to get in the gas pump.

I gainst the guy's blocking or trying to get in, whatever the case is.

She asked him, Hey, I'm trying to get in this spot.

Can you help.

You're talking to me, bitch.

The white man said that to her, you're talking to me, bitch.

I know you're not talking to me, bitch.

What the gas station is right down?

Oh?

Niggah.

I throw on some pants.

Now by this she's like, everything is cool.

I'm good.

I'm about to just leave out of here.

She got her gas.

It happened already.

No no no, no no no.

It might have happened already, but it ain't over.

It ain't over.

So I put on some pants.

You don't even know this yet, but I can put on some pants.

I go to the gas station across the street.

I'm looking for the white home depot van.

Where's the van at I don't see the van.

I go up the street.

As I'm going up the street, I see a home depot van pull out of the Walgreens.

Busty you right in the middle the street.

Hold on, mashed down on this home depot van.

We get right at the red light where both of us are side by side.

I look over there.

It's a brother long locks.

Okay, okay, cool.

But now he's looking at me because I done ran down on him Minnesota.

He's looking at my assistant goes with me everywhere.

I got to ask that my assistant.

Unless we're somewhere in the Federal building or where I just doing, Pat dawns that.

My assistant is with me.

But it's not.

It didn't have to be any of that.

But I'm looking at this guy like, all right, it's cool.

But now he thinks he thinks he didn't.

Say anything, he didn't get out of pocket.

But I just know the look on a black man when a black man is tired of whatever the fuck is going on, and uh yeah, yeah yeah.

So I'm like, all right, drive now he drives up on me.

He don't say nothing, he don't roll the window down.

He's just looking like what's up?

Ain't nothing?

Use bro, we straight.

I thought she was somebody else, both on our separate ways.

Okay, everything was all good.

So my ignorant thought was like, but.

You didn't but you didn't get the white man.

No, And I was mad about that, Like I'm still starting about it right now.

To be honest with you, look like you're ignorance.

Was what my ignorance is.

I'm about to go down here and it's gonna be whatever it's gonna be with this white man, because who the fuck are you talking to?

Second off, watch who the fuck?

You don't know who?

You don't know who that person knows.

You don't know what the other side of that looks like.

Were you more or all right because the man was white?

Because if a black man did the same thing, would you not have had the same response.

It would have a woman a little extra sat on top, but little literally a little slather on that hit sandwich where I'm like, oh, hell no, I.

Got a valid, valid, valid, valid, valid, valid, valid, valid.

So I have also an ignorant moment that I would like to share with y'all, And it kind of leads into a little bit of what you did, But it wasn't all the way white people.

It's a little ignorance, but but it does have to do with ethnicities, I guess, and color and biases, and my this is my selective ignorance.

Okay, So y'all know, the movers was one thing at the top of the air.

But now I'm like juggling trying to find cleaners.

Because what I enjoy about making money is that I offload all the things that a bitch don't want to do.

Fuck the domestication.

I live with a cat.

I ain't got a nigga, so yes, I don't want to watch it'shus.

I don't want to fold my clothes.

I don't want to clean like when my when my house start getting a little messy, I'll be like, I gotta get a cleaner.

So the cleaners that I've been having just don't do a great job.

So I was like, okay, So I asked my neighbor.

I said, Yo, do you use a cleaning service?

He's like, yeah, I use this app.

So he sends me the app, of course with his cold so that he gets his little points or whatever.

And so I download the app and I go, and of course it books you to cleaners that accepts the job, y'all.

I had to sit with myself because I felt so bad.

So I get matched with a cleaner.

Y'all, it's a dreadhead black man.

And I immediately is like, this nigga ain't cleaning my house.

I don't care what type of black que was.

A man with dreads my house the way I think a nigga's like, my house ain't gonna get cleaned by a black man if you had waves.

No, I don't care.

A black man cannot clean the house like others can.

Versus we're gonna get that that.

We're gonna get into that, mind you.

And the problem isn't why I wanted someone new, is because the cleaners that I was using I didn't speak no English, but so they weren't getting it.

Just they weren't landing.

So I was like, okay, but I'm not gonna go from aditya to a nigga with dress.

So then I canceled it.

Luckily, it didn't make me choose why, but I cancel it and say find me another cleaner.

So it finds me another cleaner.

The cleaner is a white woman.

Now I was willing, actually I will need to give the white woman a chance also because I was like, Okay, she ain't gonna know who I am.

Maybe this white woman knows how to clean.

I don't know, but I was like, I'm gonna give her a chance.

This raggedy bitch two hours before the clean tries to cancel on me because her child is sick, not knowing it's fucking them kids.

You can think, give a fuck about your sick kid.

Ask somebody else, nigga my house clean.

No, it was true to app and she tried to cancel it.

But also if I canceled it, I was gonna get charged for canceling.

So I said, bitch, you cancel it.

She was like, no, it's gonna charge me.

I said, well, you lose your money and take your little motherfucker kid to wherever it need to go.

But I was like, you know, I don't give a fuck about your kid being sick, bitch, my house need clean.

So this is all me being super selfish, super ignorant all the things.

And so I was like, damn, not giving no white to try anymore, because bitch the nerve.

So you just think you privileged enough to cancel on me two hours before the clean and then and then you thought I was going, it wasn't.

It wasn't given.

It wasn't giving.

It wasn't it wasn't given.

Jacques Jean, Okay, it wasn't given that.

So anyways, then the white woman cancels.

So then I decide to go back to not the app to the person who speaks no English.

Well, I decided to also ask my my other friend, you got any cleaners.

He said, yeah, it's a it's a husband and wife.

So the husband and wife comes over and they don't do a good job.

So anyways, all I know is I am willing to try hundreds of Maria's to get it right, because they're gonna get it right.

But I have zero intention on having a black man or now a a white woman attempt to clean my home.

And here's the other really really ignorant and self like I think highly myself.

I also don't want any black women cleaning my house because I feel like they're gonna know who I am, or they're gonna have friends who know who I am.

I'm very particular with where I know, people know where I live, and I just feel like niggas who don't even speak Spanish not gonna listen to any of the ship put out.

But I literally was in my head like I'm reaching out to all my friends like do you have a cleaner and what language do they speak?

And what they look like?

I'm literally asking what they look like.

And I was just like, damn, this is really ignorant than me.

But also and.

No, it's safety.

It's safety, and you you have.

It's safety, and then you have a particular style and expectation of how you want your be clean.

And is it bad that I only feel like an Espanole.

Eventually, on chet GBT, I made a wholess of I want done and then made my husband chutch you b t literally put it in Spanish and then send it to them like don't leave the house to all this is done, but it's it's in Espano.

Yeah, you want you want to you want to name the ends in a O A or gonna use fabuloso, aonia, get your beach, You're gonna use all of the elements of clean.

We don't want that.

Fabuloso that's that's a nigga, that's we do that.

That appropriate people they do that.

Okay, you want to know what what we do and maybe maybe you'll do this or maybe y'all don't.

This is some This is okay, this.

Is really I'm confused when you say.

We might so not even really using the fabulous So but if you put it on the stove and your whole house spell.

I've heard that you but you think it's us, right, I think I think you'll.

Pioneers it's but it makes sense how I might have to do that.

But yeah, okay, So am I ignorant?

Or is this a generational or what is it?

Uh?

An American ignorance that we can all accept that we want at Spaniols to clean our house and probably not, because they could be Dominican, Puerto Rican, Mexican, just at Sponiols all around.

Well, here's what it speaks to, Honestly, here's what I say it speaks to, probably more than anything, is that.

People who come here from other countries.

Immigrants, they're cleaner than us, not even it's not even, it's not even the cleaner.

It's taking pride in your work, whatever whatever work you do.

I put in a hard days work.

This is this is my job.

I try to do it to the best of my ability.

Show up here, every day, I bust my ass, I get it done.

I try to do it the right way.

Yeah, Americans like American they like and yeah I want no corner un white Okay.

And Maria's mom is she probably Maria's mom.

I did not call them Maria.

I would rather say it than Maria Spanolspanola, Maria.

The subjects mom probably taught her at a young age how to get every nook and cranny really how to clean as Let's be.

Very clear, that's why a black man broad because because what black mom.

It was a sorry y'all say, some crazy are teaching their young black boys how to literally elbow grease, do dishes?

Really?

Yes, So how can y'all forget when y'all grow up?

Because that's correct, what.

Ignorant conversations I didn't been to enough grown man's homes.

Hold on, And for the ladies listening who date men and have to go to a man's home that doesn't have to touch up a woman to grow between the bathroom, the kitchen, and I'm not even talking about how you interior decorating things.

There are ways that in which throughout my twenties and even into my thirties, well, no I was with a man in my thirties, like was in a relationship, but throughout my twenties, when I was going over men's homes that lived by their selves, it was like, yes, it was good, it's not even it was like the other shit like dust, Okay, you know, maybe you're not dusting the ceiling fan.

But in terms of as a grown man, why does your home look like this?

And why I so I'm supposed to suck your dick and do everything else I'm being judged to why I'm not cleaning your house?

Like That's been a constant thing, even men with money, right, Like when I used to get flown out, a man would be like, oh, I'm not wifey material because when he go to practice and come back the house ain't clean.

Nigga, why are you flying me into a dirty, dirty though?

And so like Okay, it sounded brash when I started it off.

I get it, but.

I do have I know people going to be in mandy because I like to do that.

You work hard, you work hard, you work to get to that place where you can do these things.

There's no there's no foul, no harm, no foul there, so you have you should be entitled to have these services.

However, however ignorant.

Take that you lean back.

I want you to be more ignorant.

People to be listening, like so, you might have blocked your own blessing.

That could have been your soulmate.

I was thinking the same thing.

I got your house clean and context.

And he probably had drawn up some good conversations with her, and then she would have found out, oh.

He has Do you think that somebody cleaners?

Well you had to, you're going to be there.

I don't want to talk to the person just cleaning my home.

She worried that her draws are gonna end up on eBay.

That's what I mean, That's what But I will say this though.

Me when I was single, boy, I was notorious.

If I go to a woman's house and I go to the bathroom, killing bat that shower, killing that show.

What did you find?

What did you find?

Soap scum?

Make a make up marks, making my brains full of hair?

The the thing is not clean.

It might be a new razor and a rusty razor right next to each.

Other, So what we forgot to throw the old one away?

Nah?

No, it's not as bad as what a man's back, we thought we're not doing I'm pretty sure.

However, I want to eat the pussy of a rusty razor.

But maybe you know what's crazy about that bringing up we all went to one music fest together, and what's crazy is I walked into the man's bathroom because the woman's line was way too long.

I've seen that you walked out.

Shut up, I will say.

In terms of public restrooms, oh yeah, women's women's public restrooms, I can't believe I eat pussy when I disgusting place.

I haven't heard of women that says no, no, no.

It is one of the most disgusting places like ever.

And I don't understand why women when they go out in public and have to use the restroom, why apparently they don't understand the concept of wiping their seats, rolling up their pads, double flushing, if there's still blood or remnant slept in it is.

It is the most foulest place like fuck.

I know everybody just did the Haunted Houses and ship during Halloween.

I know that I can't think of actually in my head something more disgusting than the public female restaurant.

Well, this is why Dick's are convenient, because we can have urinals.

We can just step in with and play.

Y'all don't want to sit on the seat, so it's a whole.

Joint, y'all.

I have no control, So it's.

Just my knees are not strong.

And if and the best in the best of restrooms, well they have the papers that you can I normally do three if they have like the ones that are already they're already shaped like the seat three status too thin.

And then if not, which sucks, especially if you gotta be real bad, I line I line the seats.

I'm gonna sit, but I'm gonna line it.

I would say three like.

Raw bear ass.

They'retty bad, but not as a seat.

I've just seen his Instagram video of this.

Uh, I don't know what I mean.

Listen, she said she was a scientist.

We just take whatever.

But the lady was trying to make an argument for the fact that public restroom seats are cleaner than a lot of people's.

Cell phones cell phones or or in home like bathrooms.

You think it's like the good bathroom these ad a lot of times the public bathroom is actually more clean and or and or.

This is why they don't believe science.

But this is why.

Because instan cleans the seats.

No no, but not before that, like you got multiple asses, mind you, white people don't even if they don't shave their lower legs, they don't.

They don't accept it.

Person.

No, no, no, no, I accepted a white person.

And this she pissed me off because she thought I gave a funk about her kid sick.

Damn.

I sounded like trash.

You know what.

Let's get as a this is America.

We't got to see.

Let's talk about the goddamn country we's living.

All right, Let's start with let's just do the Epstein files.

Trump made it seem like we should be so excited that he passed the bill to release these Epstein files.

Again, not only do I question science when it's you know, proposed to us as facts, I question everything the fucking government decides to feed us.

Right, And so apparently we're supposed to be giving, uh, given these Epstein files and believe them to be true in nature to what apparently it is.

Now they are supposed to be redacting some ship apparently, John you said, you said, you heard that they're pretty much gonna redact all the Republican names and only give us the Democratic names.

So the rumor that was going around after the House passed the vote was that, I'm sorry.

After the Senate past the vote was that, Okay, the files are gonna come out, but Republicans are going to try to redact all Republican names, any reference to anyone on the conservative side, and the only names that were going to be left were Democrat names that had some relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

But that's that's like, that's a I don't believe it's true.

I never heard that confirmed by any news source or anybody credible.

That was just something that people started talking about on the internet after this thing happened.

But that's like, now, who's gonna believe that.

No one's gonna believe that Bill Clinton was the only person that knew Jeffrey Epstein like we've seen.

But here's my question then, with when it comes to the Epstein files, if there was so much damaging information and it's what's being alluded about Trump, I do like the question as to why the Biden administration just didn't release.

These There was an ongoing investigation.

Part of it wasn't why because it was ongoing investigator, but the nigga.

Died, but still.

Instigation, but also what was but the investigation there's a list Thelarity and Jail are dead.

Yeah, but their investigation also ends up being like twofold because there'll be like a house investigation in a federal investigation, and so like one goes on and when the other one goes on, the second one and it's a lot of like bureaucratic process that makes it just drawn.

Out and not for nothing.

They're trying to and.

They didn't explain that well by the way.

Yeah, yeahahssaging, The messaging wasn't great on that.

But they're trying to But now Republicans are trying to run the same thing because now they're saying, oh, well, Trump is going to demand the dj have another investigation.

So it's like, here's my question about this too.

The Epstein files.

Epstein died when twenty nineteen, So.

Twenty nineteen, it is twenty twenty five, right, he was locked up prior to that in terms of a lot of sex crimes, and it's what we talk about a.

Lot convicted prior to that too.

Yes, but that's my thing.

There's a statue of limitations on a lot of sex crimes, right, and so if what we're deeming to be a raveled in this in these Epstein files, what doesn't matter this much longer outside of public opinion.

But outside of public opinion, a lot of people that would assumably be in these files can't be charged for the crimes that are.

But I think, I think monetary lawsuits, right, Like I think I think it's.

Like family members and like family and some of the victims still.

But they're coming out saying that they're in these files, but they're still like shame that exists, right, like like like Trump, like like Trump's.

Superpowers that he has no shame, right, Like he says wild ship and he doesn't go down.

But like some people, like this is dude Larry Summers, who's like the typical like Republican Trump, like big Donner.

He used to be the president of Harvard.

He was like ahead of like economic committees in the White House.

He's like classic like Republican dude.

And so like he was in the files because he was emailing Epstein trying to get advice on like how to date this young girl, right, and so like that works.

For him, go to work.

But they're like they're like a little bit, but.

Of age but too young for him, right, and so nothing illegal, but he still had like that that old school shame and so like he resigned from the job that he had right now, like that was like the old school way shit used to work.

And also like people now now, like people is like impervious to that shit, Like they're just gonna keep like talking through it.

Well, that's the thing about it, right, there's there is that impression that that you know, obviously we know Trump doesn't really have a lot of shame, but people under Trump still do.

There's a lot of Republican names that aren't Trump or Ted Cruz or people who we see talked about the news every day that probably don't want their shit on the street.

It's crazy at all.

But when we lean into ignorance, right especially of this country, we're no longer ignorant to the fact that we know old rich white men and niggas with money and niggas with power are kicky ass, nasty ass motherfuckers.

Like so a lot of the things that could come out, of course they do that.

Like I don't even think where we're at right now in twenty twenty five, I don't think we as a people would be surprised to hear what niggas is doing on islands on their time off.

To be fair, it's what we're seeing, like with the response from the whole Didy trial.

Bro, they're not surprised.

Well, no, no one, no one will be surprised.

But I still think if hey, this was most of this is Trump's fault, Like he ran his campaign saying first time, the first time, first time, saying.

That these things were going to come out.

The people that he put in positions.

Dan Bongino had a Secret Service, Secret Service director director Cash Betel.

I guess c II that's what it is.

Dan Bongo's ahead of the CIA.

They are on this like before the.

Democrats was even saying anything about the Epstein files or wasn't talking about it in a mainstream kind of way.

Trump's own people were.

On this Epstein thing because a lot of there a lot of their I guess conservative drain the swamp thing is about pedophilia, Pizzagate and all that kind of shit that didn't just come out of a vacuum.

They really want to attack and get rid of pedophiles.

Waightfair order now because it's gonna come out that way is really selling kids out of the cabinets and surprised.

But do y'all care?

I want to ask the room because for the people even listening at the end of the day, it's a whole bunch of white people that was doing some fucked up ship that we already know they were probably doing it.

That's why they've been trying to hide it this long.

Do we care to come?

We don't care, but we don't vote for them, right, like, like the people to vote for them have like the Christian values.

Like that Florida christ trash like that.

I think.

But what happens is what happens if you're a celebrity and you get invited and you go and you see this ship, and over time you don't say anything.

You just know what happens or whatever, and then you keep your mouth shut.

Then it's like, oh wow, we got these files and it's like, oh shit, well I was at the island before.

I'm like yeah, But but it's the same thing that we're hearing.

Even with the ditty parties, right, people are admitting I've gone the ditty parties, but I never saw the things that you know we're talking about.

I think even us bringing up the Christian values to it and I want to keep it Trump and keep it all the stuff here.

It's interesting because when we talk about Christian values, I guess kids, no one gives a fuck about that.

We see what happens to the Catholic Church even but the fact that now we're seeing this uproar or this or people being irate to see that this nigga might be bisexual or might have had a dig or two in or around his mouth, you know what I mean.

It's like, this is what y'all mad at, Like that he might have grabbed, grabbed some dick.

He already admitted to grabbing kuchie.

Y'all wasn't even mad at him grabbing women by the pulssy.

But now he might have been around some penises.

Y'all are in an uproar, which is also crazy considering just a couple of months ago he on his goddamn plane talking about I ain't going to heaven.

Yeah.

So and so, even when we talk about the the Trump administration leaning heavily into religious values, it's like your leader right now has also kind of shamed the parts of the religious belief system that y'all really align yourself with.

And he was never a Christian like, he was not like that.

He's not a He was a proxy for white Christian nationalists to be able to feel good about who they were voting for, who they were supporting.

But that man doesn't know about church.

That man doesn't know shit about the Bible or God.

Like, that's not his bag.

And and he's been a public figure now for forty five years.

And I gotta look, the only church you might have went to is the Easy Church.

Until we know Kanye was standing beside of me, he went to Easy Church.

He went to Jimmy Carter funeral.

Outside of that, I can't tell you about your church that Donald Trump ever been in his life.

That's about as far as it's gonna go publicly for Donald Trump.

But ultimately, like, yeah, I don't, I don't care as from the standpoint of I wake up every day thinking about whether but yeah, I do want this shit to come out.

I do want to.

And the thing about it is is that Republicans are fighting this.

Democrats aren't really fighting this, and it's going to be Democratic names in there.

At one point, Bill Clinton, Bill Clinton was still stumping for Kambla Harris's last election, he was still so he's still a major figure in the party, and Democrats are at least on the face of it or willing to.

Say everyone can cook.

Yeah, everyone can cook.

It doesn't matter if it's our team, your team, whatever it is, everybody can get it.

And I think that's what American I think that's what the American people want.

Trump ran on draining the swamp, and all his Republican people were down for because they know that this shit is corrupt too.

The only thing I guess I would like from this standpoint would be if these files go, especially seeing what just happened with the government shut down and us only having what a democratic votes, it would be that people step down that are Republican and we're able to reshift some of what's happening before then with what's happening.

If people step down, the only problem is too, I guess, of course checks and balances.

Does this also allow Trump to reappoint whoever steps down, or do we go into different votes like This is something that I don't think we've ever witnessed, like to where all three branches of the government can have people impacted by these files.

I mean, I think some of that stuff you cross that bridge when you get to it.

But I do want to say this because we've talked about like all the other angles of this thing, but I do want to make sure we say this part about it.

The reason that all this has happened is not really just because of Donald Trump and the Republicans who want it, and not just because of the Democrats who want it.

A real big reason why this is happening is because the victims are not fucking around.

God.

These people are traumatized, They've had their lives changed by this shit, and they are pushing the line on it.

They have political backing, and they have media backing.

The media is not gonna let this story go.

With Elon running X and whatever is happening over at Meta, I will say it has been the way a lot of the victims were being pushed into our faces around Bill Cosby, are Kelly and all these other things.

I myself, my algorithm, I've seen very little.

Of the victims.

Yeah, you know, and you know what's crazy about that too.

Yeah, it's like like you know how joh mentioned earlier, like the pizza gate and all that, Right, It's like Republicans do interesting things around like words and languages, right, and so like speaking of the victims and maybe why you don't see them.

A lot of what they're trying to do now is like they're playing around with the idea of kids and young ladies, right and so like like yeah, Megan Kelly's like first and foremost, like a lot of these victims are like fourteen years old, and so like now you'll have like Republican figures and media who they'll say like, oh, these young women, right, because they're trying to paint them as the idea like these guys had kinks for young women who because they want you to think that they were eighteen and nineteen and twenty and not like teenagers, right, because they're trying to like bury the idea like these these victims are you know, these were just fast women who are loose and like now they're regretting it, which I'm sure, Like that's a framework that I'm sure.

I mean it were probably Yeah, and to.

Your point, we haven't.

We didn't see these women as like we don't see pictures of them as little girls.

We don't the first time as grown people.

Yeah, we are.

So when they say young women.

And significantly they're like thirty five.

Yeah, it's been twenty twenty five years since a lot of this stuff happens.

So now when you see their faces and you hear the words young women, for some people, to Jason's point, that would just let them like oh okay.

Well not only that way when a woman is in her thirties or forties coming out about a sexual assault.

Unfortunately, and it's the ignorance within our community that we see, and not even community, I would say, society is that, well, what took you so long?

So yeah, h but if a girl was experiencing this level of abuse at thirteen, fourteen, fifteen years old and just now coming out speaking on it, unfortunately, the senses and it's what we've seen with a lot of men who come out about their abuse, is well, why didn't you say something when it happened?

And again, I think you're right.

I think it's skewing what really took place because a lot of these women were actual children.

And I don't have any faith that this will change people's lens on these type of situations, on sexual assaults.

Rapes, etc.

But there's like a cognitive dissonance of conservative people people in general, right in society, but in this case, conservative people who hate Jeffrey Epstein, who think Jeffrey Epstein rightfully was a piece of shit.

But they think that if anyone else says that that they were abused or then it's automatical, like you said, what took you so long?

Or that didn't really happen.

The jump is to defend other people.

But they're so confident that Jeffrey Epstein, they know for a fact that Jeffrey Epstein did this, and wouldn't have any compassion for other people who come out and say they've been sexually assault, that they've been raped, etcetera, etcetera by other people.

It becomes this question of like, prove it to me.

That's and that's I mean, and you can't.

That's just not it's he's.

Say versus she said.

That's essentially what's happening here.

Yeah, it sucks, but.

It's like but it's like he's SAYD versus like they say, And it's.

Still I think it's I think it's goofy, but not as goofy as Nicki Minaj two weeks ago chose to speak at the United Nations in support of the Trump administration and their concern around what's happening with the Christians in Nigeria.

It's interesting because I guess over the last couple of weeks, Yay, the the the the, the presidents of the barbs are coming out saying they no longer support Nicki Minaj, and there's there is There's been a few people that he did it.

And to be fair, since she's been going on these rants over the last couple of months, people have been of course noting her follower count dropping by the hundreds of thousands, so she's lost quite a bit of the support in her barbs.

She is ruining her legacy, is what we're seeing.

And do we have a clip that we want to play because I know, here's my issue where a lot of people are upset that Nicki Minaj went up there and spoke at the United Nations on behalf of the Trump administration.

However, she is allowed to have concern over a religious group that is experiencing you know, there's a human elementary cool However, one of the things that people are confused about and why this is happening.

And boy not me shouting out a man of seals, but I was able to understand maybe what the what's the angle here?

And Amanda Seals did a great job in kind of expressing why Trump might have any sort of care about what's happening in Nigeria.

And let's hear what she has to say.

Nicki Minaj working with Trump admin on plight of Christians in Nigeria.

Either she's getting a check, or she was nagging the whole time, or she genuinely thinks that she's doing something good, which, by the way, is why y'all need to have people around you that know more than you.

And by y'all, I don't just mean celebrities.

Everybody.

Everybody should have people around them that they can consult with, that think differently than you, that hold you in a place of values.

Just so you understand what's happening here with the plight of Christians in Nigeria.

There is a plight of Christians in Nigeria.

However, the US, what does that have to do with the United States?

The United States is using this as a ploy as a proxy to find their way into Nigeria so that they can then find their way into the Sahel States of Burkina, Faso, Molly and niger who, as you know, are coming together to begin a process of Pan Africanism on the continent.

They are taking back their resources from friends.

They are saying, we are going to build our own infrastructures.

This undermines the global empires.

Goal and so they have to try and shut it down.

Now we saw earlier this year with Afrikaan and that Cone, that general who tried to say, oh you know, they got some problems going down in Burkina Faso.

They're continuing to try to make this happen the same way that they're.

Making Vetch happen in Venezuela right now.

And so it was it was really interesting because yeah, again we just talked about how Trump you ain't really Christian.

Now you hear about the plight of Christians all the way Nigeria.

By mind, you not sure if Trump or Nicki Minaja has ever even stepped foot in Nigeria, you know what I mean.

And so, I mean, we know she's been to Prague, can you even spell it?

But I'm not sure if she's gone to Nigerian.

So even her having this, even if she had a spiritual awakening to care about this plight, that's happening on the continent of Africa, and what's happening across these these different countries.

I'm like, girl, you are standing next to someone who is going against not only people of color, but immigrants.

Mind you, you are from Trinidad, so you are aligning yourself with someone who not only goes against many a lot of people of color, you're also going again someone who is against lgbt Q I A plus plus plus rights, which in fact is your fan base.

Also, just to stay on Trinidad real quick.

Venezuela is right there, and between Venezuela and Trinidad right now, that I believe looks like it's to be exploited.

And that and that's why it's like why.

Used when people there's usually something a precursor to that, like we've had some kind of sample size that suggests that she cares or anyone in that position.

I don't think that's why.

That's why such a good con right like the whole because because like the way that she like defends herself, she's like, like, you guys don't care about people, you don't care about Christians, And so it's like it's a good con that like Republicans use with that, and that's why like Christians get played, right.

So it's like Trump doesn't care about the church or any of that stuff, but he knows that like if he says a couple of these words and made like waves the magic wand like this group is going to get activated.

And so like for Nicki, who's probably just we know, she's like doom scrolling just like all of us, Like you know, she's just looking and she's like, oh my god, these Christians are in true And then it's like it's like wording right, It's like who are the Christians in.

Trouble from Muslims?

Right?

So then like now it makes it so easy to kind of like activate like that certain base in the US and then turn on them, and then you may.

Activate this and care about Christians who for the most part, and yet I'm gonna say, I don't give a fuck, do not care about the LGBTQI plus the community because it goes against their religious beliefs, who, oddly enough, are the biggest supporters of Nicki Minaj.

Sure, so who are we activating here?

Who are we actually acting like cares like?

And for her to act like she she does care, it goes against this religious essential group, that goes against everyone who supported you damn near your entire career.

Well, the whole thing on both sides is just it makes your like cynicism since its tingle right.

Because on the government side, I don't like the government, at least under this administration.

I won't.

I'll try to cast a smaller net than I was about to, but at least under this administration, I don't belie even any altruistic agenda that this government has.

They're not trying to help people, They're not looking out for the well being of others.

That's not the reason that they're doing this.

Right on Nicki's side of it, I agree with you.

I think she is being used, but I think the I think her willingness to be used is honestly just.

Because it's for her.

It's like a good look in her mind, because when else would Nicki Minaj be attached to the White House.

Or maybe maybe she want her a rapist brother to be part of.

Maybe maybe so maybe maybe, But like for her, I get I'm Nicki Minaj.

I get to stand up in front in this prestigious position and talk about something like Christianity, like she probably looks at it like this is this is a win win situation for her.

I get a good look and I get to talk about Christianity.

How can anyone be mad at me for this?

It's interesting because it brings you saying that immediately made me think of the Philadelphi, the Philadelphia Eagles and the players who chose not to go to Yeah, you know what I mean, right, but it reminds me of that as as as someone who.

What what is it folk?

And so you do still have black people who feel like being on that podium is.

It's important, It's important.

It's good for me to be that, you know, and with like and even and like.

This is probably going to piss off the parts too.

But like the difference between her and Carti is that like to your it was it you and Jason to talk about like you would you would have seen some precursor precursor to this.

Behavior, like Cardie.

You mentioned the time she said these things on her lives on her Instagram all the time.

So Cardi standing up there with Kamala Harris.

As much as people want to denounce the idea of bringing celebrities and rappers into the d n C or whatever.

She cares, you can care.

You can tell she cares about this stuff.

And she thought about this a long time.

And since she was since she was on a pole star ten years ago.

She interviewed Bernie Sanders ten years ago.

And so it's interesting, You're right, we've not seen Nicki Minajbi Vok any way politically about anything.

And like even when I watched, I didn't watch the whole thing.

I watched enough of it just to get an idea of how she performed.

And the first thing she said, she got up there, you know, I'm very nervous.

Okay, fine, I get it, you're nervous you're standing in front of But also if you care this deeply about something, even if I was nervous, if something was really on my heart and there was one hundred thousand people in the crowd, I could still be able to speak and from my heart and be convincing and talk to people as if I know that I give a fuck sitting there reading a paper about this speech about Nigerians and Christians and how this it just doesn't come off as genuine in any way, shape or forms.

So it's just like that the whole thing, I think It's just I think she just wants the look of saying she's performing.

I mean, I mean, I just I just that wasn't the case.

Formative or does she get played?

No, well, I mean she said she's Unwell you.

Say a lot.

Everybody got a price.

Oh for sure.

But that's what I'm saying.

We don't know if it was the check, if she was promised to pardon, if she genuinely like, we don't know because because we don't know, the same way celebrities don't get paid to perform at the Super Bowl, or they don't get paid like, we don't know if this was paid, or if she just got the invite and was so excited to be behind that podium and and have that look.

We don't know why she, of all people, no.

Reaction with any United Nations when she said that, did anything?

Oh no, I didn't see any reactions.

I mean, listen, it's almost like she was in the room by herself, because the people in the room that she's talking to don't respect her.

The people that wanted her to come on there to say that don't respect her.

I mean, it's say, we saw Trump next to fucking Wayne and next to Kodak and.

You know it's all goofy, but it's all for looks.

They don't.

Trump doesn't give a damn about what happens to Wayne, or give it damn about what happens to Kodak.

And and somebody what it was is somebody probably at the u N who is on their media team, saw these nikkis saying these tweets and was just like, get here's an opportunity.

That's what it was.

And she was gonna go for.

She wasn't gonna say no because this is the opportunity for me to be in this prestigious and she That's.

What I'm saying.

She seemed like she was just so excited to be mentioned on the White House page and the social media page because they did her little TikTok trend that they're like, oh, she'll come up here.

That's what I'm saying.

I don't even know if it was for a bag.

You don't even know if it was for a bag.

Well, let's get it to celebrity set adorn this things because they do.

Look at me, I'm already signed, bro, I'll be so annoyed.

Let's play this clip.

So the game recently sat down on it's the show that I don't know what this show is.

It's it's a Kurt Franklin show.

Well, it's Dinner Kings, and it's and it's men who sit around and talk about their mental health.

Let's go ahead and play this clip.

You might have to chop it up because it's kind of long, but let's let's let's let's play this ship.

Sometimes, Like when I was in my twenties and my thirties, it was just exchange, you know what I'm saying.

It was, Hey, hey, I'm giving you this we have in our moment, and the I'm gona get back to my life.

You get back to yours and emotions because you're young.

Everybody got their whole.

Life ahead of them.

When you're getting your forties, man, you start feeling like you womanize it and you and I'm taking emotions home with me, or she's taking emotions out the door with her if you are, you know, living that type of lifestyle, and I'm I'm like not sleeping good after that because I feel like I had no pure intentions for this person.

And this person is also late.

You know, thirties or you know, mid thirties and they got a life, and so like when you got you know, when you're young and you're dealing with a young woman, ain't the white tripman, It's all good.

But when you're older and you know that that woman has trauma from her past relationship and all of that, and you know, you dinner is cool, going out on the date, it's cool.

But then once you start getting intimate with people and you know for sure that they are invested in you even a little bit, and you know you have no you know, you know you ain't talking to this person after tomorrow.

Man, you carry like, you know, you just feeling it.

Thank you for cutting off Matt Barnes, because that's the last person we want to hear from with this conversation.

The man who at the top of the year just cheated on his wife with eight women within thirty days, all found out by a private investigator.

By the way, let's not let's cut off.

I don't care that he's on the Black spect network.

I don't know a fuck.

You got cousins that do shit.

He isn't well into his forties, still cutting the fuck up.

I don't give a I'm.

Glad that you He was like, yeah, man, you you know what that reminds me of you remember, by the way, by the way, not only is this a table.

First off, let's talk about the messengers the game is saying this the game who if you guys are unaware, just welcomed a new baby into the world with Evely Lozada's daughter, the same man who publicly was out here full blown relationship out of uh teenageers.

Then we have Matt Barnes already said would have to say about Barnes, not sure about Dion Cole or big Boy who's also at the table.

But then we have motherfucking uh Kirk Franklin who don't like his gay son.

So this table.

Brouh and so it's it's it's like this these group of men that, well, in today forties you could trigger me after I get I've already triggered because because what this, what this clip essentially is saying to all the women out there, you bet if you're dealing with a nigga under forty, he gonna waste your time.

Yeah, because these niggas don't know no better.

But then also based on the table, when they're in their forties, they still gonna waste your time.

Since, because what are we talking about?

Like at his big age of forty, Evelyn Lozada's daughter still don't have a ring on her finger.

You made her a baby mama.

Another one another one another one.

Like in terms of Matt Barnes, you left your you have a wife right now who's now a single mother, divorced, say of fucking five children that she's now raising by herself.

I feel like worse than the action is like the like the almost like the reward he wants for the awakening, Like it reminds me of like do you want to Oh wait, that's what it's like that it's like that Chris Rock routine where he's like, I.

Take care of my kids.

Yeah yeah, And it's like he wants an applaud for and it's like, yo, that's baseline.

You want to have a.

Pause for the acknowledgment.

But if you that's nothing, that wasn't that deep, but bro, But also that was like if you genuinely, if you genuinely felt like that, if you genuinely knew better, you.

Do better, and you wouldn't have just made another baby mind mind you.

I think Evely Lozada's daughter might be thirty one so still early thirties.

Let me look that up.

Actually, I'm gonna look it.

U.

I'm gonna look it up.

But he's forty five, and like that's something he should like.

Again, good, good statement.

He said much better if it was like thirteen years ago.

Well that's the problem right.

By the way, just turned thirty two.

Okay, well yeah, but that's what I was gonna say.

Jay, is that like, yeah, he didn't say he didn't say anything wrong, But you have to consider the messenger, because I guess one question is like, Okay, what does those words sound like a good thing?

But like I think what we gotta get to in society in general when people say things that okay, yeah, that sounds like the dude, but what does that.

Look like in practice, practice and in practice?

I guess my question is if I if I came up to the game and was like a nigga with a hose at, you would point me.

To the hole.

If I said a game, I got follow me, follow me, come come bride you Jason.

I'm a Jason.

By the way, By the way, I do like the game.

This isn't no no, no.

Here you go.

I was like three, but I like the game.

I like his music.

If this was on mute, I would still watch it because he looks good.

He's a he's a fine brother.

But to me again again, back to the Messenger at the age of forty five, at this shared table of men, I just feel like we're in an echo chamber of men knowing how to say the things that maybe we want to hear.

Again, the acknowledgment of it is there, you know it, but the practice is not.

Yeah, we're not seeing men execute or practice the things that they actually know, which is why when I open up, I was like, damn, a lot of these niggas do know that they know.

So it's not like it's not.

What it is is selective ignorance.

Here you go, you know better, you genuinely don't choose to do better.

And in terms of dating and wasting women's time, this is a constant thing.

It's what kind of and I don't know if we even got to talk about it, but it's the same conversation around Big Sean being with Jane I ego for ten years and not doing what you know what I mean.

Yah, I want to bring our big sister Grace.

Here we go.

I don't like that.

I know, but we don't even got the same daddy, so I don't know.

But look what if the game perspective has changed in how he maybe he had a self reflective moment in that interim of having another child where he's able to sit on the platform now and say, hey, I'm evolved, I'm dumb, I'm doing the work.

Maybe he's in therapy.

Maybe that's how he's able to and and to articulate that.

But to your point, I think we still have to now that he put that out there, let's see what happens the next twelve months ago live that right, And once you put yourself out there now saying that you corrected your ways and you have compassion and you understand, you know where you landed with these women previously, then I want to see the growth now.

I want to see the growth.

The growth would have been him saying that and then also saying like, and we're engaged, and we're.

Engaged to have a family.

What's the example, right, Because there's other there's other kids or the other gentleman young men that follow him that that hold his words to a high.

But to reach this place of awareness at fucking for.

That right, and that's yeah, bruh.

With a thirty two year old girlfriend, like like you know, my thing is It's like when when again the notion.

That's his girlfriend.

What he said was what.

He said was good, right, like in a vacuum, what he said was good when when men say this, the partner that pisses me off the most about it is like ye, like men know how to like men like him know how to get pussy, right, and that's different hard and that right, but that but that's different than like getting a companion.

That's that's different than getting a companion or starting a family.

And it's like like just knowing women, right, like the if you have kids or and game has kids, so he knows this.

Yeah, if you're a woman and you're over thirty five and you're pregnant, that's considered high risk.

Right.

And so again, like the Big Sean and the jene Aiko, it's like men will lead these women on for years and then they're like thirty six, thirty eight, forty two, and then they're like peace and then they leave and it's like all right, cool, So now this woman has to start all over, right, Like if she wants to start a family, it's gonna be high risk.

And it's like, yo, you like when she was in like certain years where she could have had this family and listened to all this shit that you were saying, like you was just bullshitting.

You was just bullshitting, And now you're putting her in a position where it's just making her like harder.

And so it's like for him to say that now at.

Forty five with this thirty two year old girlfriend or baby's mom, like, we don't know what it is.

Like That's why I just feel so empty, And that's why it doesn't feel like a moment where he like educated people like a lot.

Of these words that are spewed onto these mics feel empty, like because they come again from spaces where it sounds good but it's not being practice.

And so for me, when I saw that clip, I was just like uh.

But then again I also was just like damn, so do I need a skew older?

And then forty five, like does a man not realize like this until later?

I think you got to take it on a case by case basis because I think there's there's some men who you know, I know they might to women, they probably don't feel like plentiful in the dating pool.

But I think there's some men who know they want to get married, No, they want to have a family, and whether they find that person or not at whatever age, that's up to them in the universe how they connect.

But have I want to know just.

Quarter it?

Yeah, yeah, it's funny.

I was gonna wear quarters.

Some call hans.

You know what I'm saying.

Well, if it didn't have the like the continuing zip.

Oh wait, you're talking about just the zipper that comes from the titties.

A teacher that would you date a fifty five year old teacher?

About a principal?

A principal, Yeah, he had to be a principal to own the school.

School administrator se man walking with a swede elbow patch.

No, I can't imagine.

Oh, you know what.

The last guy I was with with seventeen years my senior.

I don't mind older guys, okay, but also he.

Had a lot of I'm learning to do okay, but he read Corduroy.

Blazers, Corroy Blazers.

You never dated to do that, will Wallabies Clarks, I.

Don't even know these words.

They're trying to give you a different, different example.

I don't even know.

We're gonna say, you would clarks are and then he probably dated somebody.

That Wallaby Clarks.

Yeah, wallabyes is the style of it, Clarks of the brand.

Yeah, you know what it is.

That's a type of for sure.

You know that you see in Brooklyn, Like God, yeah, there's no way you lived.

I never even dated a guy in Brooklyn.

No, I don't look at niggas in Brooklyn.

Wow, I didn't know that.

What I don't like Brooklyn niggas?

What?

That's not my ignorance, I'm aware.

Anyways.

Anyways, speaking speaking of Brooklyn, we're gonna talk about rabbis.

What transition.

Rabbis is crazy, that is wild.

Listen flies for men, Listen, listen.

I told y'all, if y'all listen to all the episodes, Like Brooklyn was the first place I saw.

The Hasidic juice.

Okay, I got to see the little hats with the curls and the skirts and the wigs like that is a whole You know, they got their own school buses, hospitals, like they closed down based on when they want to close down.

It's crazy.

But let's get into our thoughts.

Young Thug recently sat with a rabbi.

We've also seen their celebrities do this as well, such as Kanye Kyrie I wasn't aware of, just does Sean Jackson, which again is another form of eagle Ezeia Banks.

We just don't even need to talk about her as we kind of can't because she doing some goofy ship too.

But Young Thug sat visited a rabbi and asked for a spiritual reset.

This was after clearly his release recently of prison.

And we have a clip for this.

Yeah, the audio is funny, but let's play it here.

This is crazy.

Who's talking?

That's the music there, but it's just it's just him talking to Rabbi Yoshi Yahoo.

Yes, yes, what is there?

Talk is there?

First off?

You know what's on mute?

Or is it just music playing?

It's just music playing.

Every clip of this is just music playing.

You can't they did it so you can't hear the cross talk.

What language are they speaking because the rabbi don't speak English.

Guy right there at this above his shoulder, he's translated translating.

Yeah, he's the same guy that was in The Easy The Easy Kanye when he visited the rabbit.

How you say whoop?

And Hebrew whooped.

Translating right now, telling him, you know, I thought that you can practice like Santadia.

There's other ways.

It's not saying that.

That's not an effective way.

I just don't know too much about.

But with the spiritual reset, does this mean they're becoming Jewish?

I don't know what.

Let me go back with Kanye.

He was he was asking for a toonement for things he said about the Jewish community.

He was, he was asking for forgiving.

Right forgiveness, and he was, you know, trying to correct with that.

I get right, what the is what is doing?

Because I thought, okay, it's gonna be.

Ignorant ad let it rip.

Shouldn't he be going to like Mohammad?

Because I'm like, how the fair that used to be the regular thing?

Like if you was a rapper and you got well minutes of fair cons that's when you got your life right and you start He chased his like some.

That's this is confusing.

Yes, it's confusing.

I was.

I just finished this book on John Singleton that my homeboy wrote, and there's a chapter with John Singleton the same thing, like it was going through some ship and he went to a rabbi instead of going to like a different type of minister.

And I was confused when I got to that chapter.

I was like, why would he just go to a rabbit?

Like why wouldn't he go to somebody in his own denomination?

Like that's but also what happened to?

Confusing?

Okay?

And maybe they don't align with the religion, but the Christian religion amongst us, I feel like it's still Christian and then Muslim for for our community, not you Jason, but for we can't super Catholic.

But why they're going to these outside religions that they're least familiar with, that their family members and friends probably are least familiar with.

But why why are they going to a pastor?

Mandy?

Do you think that they feel less judged if they go outside of their own denomination?

But that doesn't make sense to me either, Like in terms of in terms of what your religious belief system is or what you've probably been raised around, you would you should feel more inclined to go to that religion to ask for forgiveness or to have a spiritual resents the same way?

Who do we just see or maybe it was just like one of those influencers.

I just saw a grow man get baptized, right, or you go in pledge your allegiance to the church, like those are ours.

That all these you know what maybe maybe churches in Atlanta.

I'm going, Yeah, you didn't go get t Jakes, you didn't go get a pastor.

Yeah you didn't go to crestlow Dollar.

Y'a wouldn't think.

It's like like like a therapist where it's like you're trying to find you first.

He don't believe the probably listen to advice, but he just went to do.

He went to a rabbi.

But I wanted, like cleft Dollar probably knows who he is, so he's probably like I'm gonna go to farthest away from somebody who don't know who I am.

Publicize it.

Now, that's a good question.

Thug going away.

I choose my cleaners, let me go, don't listen to music because the job.

They go do the job.

But also is it a thing like again this is me being like Captain Cinical, but like in this time period, is there a chance that of just thinks let me align with someone Jewish and and that will I mean, if he's one of these niggas who and I can see Thug being one of these niggas.

Is he one of these niggas who think.

That like, okay, Jews run the world, Jews run the bank, Jews run everything.

So these are the most powerful people.

So I need to be within, which.

Is essentially, let's be very clear, which is essentially what we see Floyd Mayweather doing.

Oh he gave it up word earlier too, he did.

Him and Eric Adams are fighting to be the most Jewish niggas in America.

Right now because they both wild out.

I serve you as a New York mayor, Bro, bigger than that.

I'm your brother, Bro, You're the mayor of New York.

You didn't serve Israel as the mayor of New York.

I mean, Williams the biggest Israeli population outside of Israel.

I'm sure literally, but they in Brooklyn, they're not an Israel He didn't served, right, he didn't go to Bedford average.

Still it's still New York's interests.

Yeah.

So it's just like, I don't understand why you have to go that far.

I don't get it.

Have you ever had like a white homie who was like too eager to like defend black honor.

People like people accuse Rosenberg of this a lot, right, like Rosenberg something that happened in the black community.

Rosenberger goes super hard, and it's like, I don't know if you believe what you're saying or not, but you're just going so hard that it almost becomes a caricature ish to where it's like, okay, now that you shouldn't say the right thing, but like mis mis misinterpretation, Like it's like you're working over time to prove you're Dawn, and I'm just like, bro, you ain't got to do all of that.

It's just interesting.

I'm looking up right now to the musical references of a prayer or God in Thugs work, because I feel like he has aligned himself with Christianity and a.

Guy he never said yeaheh, not one time.

I promise you said by the.

Way, which is also crazy safe.

He literally thanks God and thanks Allah.

So there's two religions that you could have leaned on, and you chose to go be with the rabbi something on God.

There's a lot of records where he talks to.

God as a big rap fan.

I don't believe a lot of these rappers when they mentioned I think they just be saying it because they fit in the bar.

But I don't think they have it, and it sounds weighty indicatedence of whatever they're talking about.

They throw that in there as the word adjacent to some they're not Muslim.

It's just in the moment, like they'll do that ship.

I'm like, come on, stop it.

Just to your point, like you see the.

Performing, you gotta check them mathematics.

And I'm mad because as a thug fan, yeah, really wish him and a lot of these niggas would just stop showing up on my social media.

Just drop the music, making music bullshit making content.

But I don't want to see you sitting would a god damn Rabbi.

I don't want to hear you talk about therapy.

I just need you and you better have not gotten my good system right than scientists pregnant?

Don't you better not.

I'm shocked she's not pregnant already.

To be honest, there's rumors around.

Okay, I want to say, like I'll.

Be pissed anyways before we get out of here, let's do what am I ignorant?

Jason we're doing one.

Chill, We're doing We're doing one.

We're doing one, all right.

So do you want to do one boyfriend, one relationship one or one of family one?

Let's do family because we get we in the holiday season, all right?

So family?

Was it ignorant to refuse to split my inheritance with my cousins already?

Yeah, here's the scenarioguies cousins, right, They said, my grandfather my grandmother passed and left me twenty five thousand dollars, specifically me, not my cousins.

She lived with my parents for years, and I was the one who took her to her appointments, handled her medications, and spent weekends with her.

Now my cousins are demanding I share because family money should stay in the family, they said.

They also said.

Grandma was old and quote didn't understand finances when she.

Wrote her will.

Clearly only one of my cousins.

One of my cousins even said I manipulated my grandmother into leaving it to me.

I told them I'm not sharing because I actually earned the inheritance through years of caregiving and they never offered to help her.

Now the family's divided and I'm being called greedy.

Was I ignorant to keep their hands as is?

Or are they ignorant for acting like they were entitled to something they even entitled?

How many niggas is it?

But not only that it's only twenty five thousand dollars.

They don't go to economy.

That's like, that's like four cartons of eggs pretty much.

Honestly, when it comes to this, cousins are never considered direct family.

So in terms of wills and inheritance and stuff.

Like that, cousins because it's a grandmother, I guess they feel.

No, it's a grandmother though No, that's still.

Not saying that that's why they feel Selm saying, I think the person the grandchildren, there's a caregiver, a care giver, take her whatever.

Then they have to hold that like, yo, we acknowledge that you took care of grandma and it is what it is.

Plus twenty five grand.

Is twenty five grand right?

How many is well?

And usually when you're caretaker, your your your it's for equity in terms of the time and love, right, aint I.

Ain't gonna hold you playing cut them cousins off?

Fuck them, yeah, fuck.

Them literally, I don't think that you should feel ignorant for keeping it.

We are in a recession.

You need every every goddamn coin you can get, and apparently it's not every penny anymore because they're not making those no more.

But but you need like I'm not even gonna hold you.

I hate when people feel entitled to money if it wasn't left to you and the will literally said, this goes to me, bitch, it go to me, y'all feeling like I'm tired of to split it with y'all motherfuckers.

Y'all got me fucked up.

Yeah, I mean a, it's to your point, like it's twenty five grand, like I bought your niggas a steak of something.

Yeah, go to dinner and y'all.

Can get the wagon put out, ball out.

I'll go buy twenty Yeah, I would.

Go buy y'all a two thousand dollars.

Men, we go sit down and eat them all the good shit you every wanted to eat, and we're gonna go about a business and.

You have fun shitting it out.

That's all you're getting.

Now.

What I say is this, if the money, if there was, it was significantly more money.

Yeah, and you and you do love your cousin, these aren't your direct whatever.

But if you love your cousins and Grandma leaves you twenty five million dollars, then yes, cool.

Give them a couple of dollars.

Help everybody out the way you can.

And what am gonna give you fifteen hundred dollars?

Literally two thousand dollars.

And it probably doesn't meet the expenses that was put out, not at all.

And let's be very clear in terms of talking about people and when you give them stuff, right, he could have gave them fifteen hundred two thousand.

Do you know how many people will still feel like that?

Ain't No, it's never enough.

A lot of times when we deal with family, nothing you do is ever enough.

And so the entitlement that normally comes from our family members or our close friends or even sometimes our spouses, fuck them.

The entitlement is you can never do enough for some people.

And so again we don't know how many cousins, we don't know what you would have given them or what would have made them feel like like did they want to bust it down?

Equally?

You know what I mean?

I think people, I think I think people choose, like with your grandparents.

It's like, you know, you get older in your relationship with some changes, and I think they probably have like this idea of like what their relationship was with their grandmother, whereas like the person who got the money, like they saw a much different side where they take care of them.

So it's like to me, it's not even equal, like you were there at the end all that like that's just part traumatic, part hard work.

Like take the bag.

I agree.

I agree.

Well, you in this case are not the ignorant one.

It's your cuzins.

But we're gonna go ahead and wrap up.

I guess before we get out of here, I do want to let y'all know where I'll be for the rest of the month and shout some things out.
