Yo mo facts with Adam curry for February 18 2020. This is
episode number 26 I'm doing good. How
are you? I am doing well, sir.
It is Oh, before I forget my wife, Tina, the keeper. She
said, Oh, what did you guys? What are you guys doing tonight?
Can you just ask one question for me? All right. She wants to
know, with all the money he spent and all the media exposure
has Michael Bloomberg changed anywhere in the A das
community's opinion.
Only am a politician that can be bought.
So he's me. He's moved up to me on that scale. He's moved up.
That's the bump. He has a bump.
He's got the bump bump. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Everything good
man. Everything good where you are? Man,
everything is well. How about yourself, sir?
Yeah, fantastic. And I am ready to Well, I already know that
this is a special show. And I'll mention this part right up
front, we run on the value for value model, which means you
listen to the show we do. Did it give you bring you any value if
it did just turn that into a number and send that to us? Mo
fax.com or directly to the donation page. Mo fund me.com
mov fund me.com. And we've been doing this now this is the 26th
episode. And we looked at the PayPal and the N think we have
cash app as well. Yeah, so like cash yet? Yeah. Which apparently
people like a lot. I had no idea how much people like the Cash
App. And we were surprised like, there's a lot of people who've
supported the show over the past six months. And so we want to
start thanking those on a regular basis. Because as
producers, you deserve the thanks for that. But also, a
number of you deserve a special credit as a producer, or as we
like to say an executive producer or Associate Executive
Producer, and we'll explain all that later. But first, we have
to spin the couple of topics here. See we're gonna do Oh, I
feel lucky tonight. And it is landing on luck. Luck pot luck.
Should I know that so? Where'd that come from? I like it. It's
the potluck song. I don't know the Steven Universe. Ah, not for
me what the show but I love the song. And it works for this show
title. Excellent. Well, this is indeed the potluck show. So
instead of one overarching theme we're going to take you through
I think we have four different things to talk about today.
Yes. So as we're talking about four different topics today, the
potluck shows pretty much just as explained to the people is
we're going to clean up small topics that happened over time
that we didn't that make a full show worth of material, but we
want to talk about it. So we'll do these periodically. And so we
can, you know, kick it around and see what we think about it.
All right. All right. Topic number one. I got sound effects.
Alright, right. So if we're the hip hop fans out there, you
probably noticed that the song intro song was Snoop Dogg lay
low. And Snoop Dogg is actually laying low now.
Yeah, after after we talked about him all of a sudden he was
real quiet. I'm sure that that we set him straight.
Well, not too quiet because he had to come out and make an
official public apology
25 past the hour. Joining us now the host of MSNBC is politics
nation and president of the National Action Network.
Reverend Al Sharpton. Great to have you with us rapper. Snoop
Dogg is offering an apology to journalist Gayle King, following
backlash over his comments appearing to Well, he did
threaten the CBS This Morning anchor for asking questions
about the late Kobe Bryant's 2003 rape case in an interview
with WNBA star Lisa Leslie.
Two wrongs don't make Norway So with that being said, Gil King
probably tore you down by coming at you based off of emotions,
maybe an angry overreacted, sort of way different than that. I
was raised way better than that. So I would like to apologize to
you probably for the language that I use and calling you on
your name and just being disrespect. I mean, for it to be
like that I was just expressing myself to a friend that wasn't
here to defend themselves. A lot of people look up to me, they
appreciate me. So I want to fix this, okay.
All right. All right. Hold on a second. Hold on a sec. I didn't
see any of this. So just to review, and I let's make sure I
got it straight. The the issue that Snoop Dogg initially took
with the Gayle King interview was not was Yes. About the
question she asked. She asked how it was asked how she kind of
dismissed the answer. But more importantly, the overarching
issue that Gail and Oprah have been known to go after Black men
and let White men slide on horrible guys like Charlie Rose,
Weinstein, etc. Then he does he does that kind of. He says, we
know you will come and fee whatever it is, but it was
clearly about hey, we know we figured out what you're doing
you and Oprah. And then and then Susan Rice jumped in. Like like
there's a whole army we can kill you. And then the apology came?
Is that how i Is that the correct timeline?
That's the correct timeline. But there are some segments missing
out of the timeline. So first, we're going to start off with
the apology and Allah's apology. And then we're going to get into
how the apology came about because we left off last show,
and I really wanted to leave this story at last show. Yeah,
but it got so just the representation of what happened
and how he was made to brought to the carpet of made apologize,
it was just too much to pass up because we're gonna see some
very interesting happenings going on with this story.
And if I make an observation about this apology, so they
intercut his voicemail, I guess that he left for Gail intercut
that with his original Instagram video.
No, that was on Instagram, but I think he was holding his phone
funny or something. I don't know. Wow. In and Out cutting in
now, I don't know if that was strategic by him or if he was
just nervous at what but or high. He had a whole different
tone. Yes,
sure. Now, that was a voicemail that he left for Gayle King.
No, that was actually on Instagram. Pure on Instagram.
Yeah, it sounds like Instagram. Chai got it. Okay, so
there's no matter what the true winner is Mark Zuckerberg, as
long as we all understand that.
Yes, that's correct. Yeah. So where are we at now is he's made
the apology. And now the Morning Joe. Crew, including the
Reverend Al Sharpton. Yeah, that's gonna challenge him. It's
always a giveaway, isn't it? Yeah,
he's gonna chime in on how they received it's his apology. Yeah,
well,
listen, I it was pretty straightforward apology and
complete apology. I thought it was a complete apology. I know
you have a slightly different take on it. But you know, I
think I think we all screw up. We all mess up. And when we do,
we need to step forward and apologize. And the part of the
part of of that apology I mean, he said he overreacted. He
apologized fully. He was being disrespectful. And he said he
needed to quote man up and apologize. He did. And I thought
the best part of it was when he said that they needed to get
together and talk privately which unsure at some point. They
will though I'm sure this is still very, very raw for Gail.
She's been through hell over the past week. And I know she has to
be disillusioned by people that she thought were friends who've
sat by and said absolutely nothing. I know she doesn't be
disillusioned. I know she has to be disillusioned by newspapers
like the New York Times and others who claim to be such
champions of of journalistic freedom and, and protecting
journalists. They talked about protecting journalists
worldwide, but they don't even Protect one down the street when
her life is threatened. It's very strange this conspiracy of
silence to protect and defend a black female journalist.
Oh yes. Conspiracy of Silence. Morning Joe. But he's also he's
on a whole nother tangent and I I had another clip where they're
just going off about oh, this is violence against the against a
journalist and
a loadout goggles carry
all right hold on a second. I'll put him on let me let me get him
here on the bottom there on Thank you, sir.
I'm
so jealous accepting of the apology. And, you know, he just
knew had to man up. Yeah. What's
that all about?
Words matter. Yeah, words always matter. So that was that didn't
sit with me. Well, that sounds like
something that someone told him to say.
I would agree. And it seems like oh, you cow toweling to Gail is
manning up. And what I find interesting is this. We're not
talking about what originally this whole story is about. Now,
they've pivoted from that, to snoop threatening Gail and
Oprah. Yes. And that's exactly what we covered in the last
show. Because the guy that was speaking to her name, when one
of the clips, the guy was saying, yeah, they need to get
they need to get out in front of story and make themselves the
victim. Oh, yeah, I know what you're talking about
carrying Hunter carrying on the carry Hunter show clip. The
gentleman that was with her. He He laid this out exactly how
they played it out. They played made himself the victim. And now
Snoop is on on on the defense. And he's running scared. Clear.
Let's see how, let's see how mica except his apology.
Well, I don't think those folks are off the hook. Just because
Snoop delivered this. They're not so called apology. I think
it was an apology in some ways, but it wasn't in others. And
here's why. First of all, is quite a turnaround. Okay, from
what he put out there, and it took a week, which is
problematic when you've done something wrong, you know it
right away, and you get right out there and you do not give
any excuses for it. And his first line gave an excuse two
wrongs don't make a right. Let me explain like, why that's
problematic. He left Gail hanging in an area that's quite
important to all of this, which will let the rep talk about two
wrongs don't make a right. No, that's that's not okay. And that
kind of undermines the entire apology. The other thing is, you
have to wonder why it took a week. What what is it that made
him think for a week about this before coming out with this? And
what he did when he tore Gail down and threatened her with a
profanity laced tirade is he divided people, and he knew he
was doing that he knew he was ginning up division. It's not a
good not a good luck at all. So I think he's gonna need to do
more. I think it's a good start. But a lot needs to happen before
this really is quite frankly, in a place of peace.
What exactly which people? Was he dividing according to Mica?
Black man from black women.
Do you think that's I mean, I know that's what's going on. But
do you think that that's what she meant? Or is this is
brilliant actually, so we want to divide black men from black
women so let's blame it on Snoop for doing it is that the idea?
And you you see that group divided we got to make sure the
ones we have on our sites they are side so we make jailed the
victim misogynist Snoop is on this side. Anybody agrees with
Snoop is misogynist. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. And that's and that's the
way it works. Now, I will say this, I have no problem with
stupid apologizing for the words that he used. But my apology
would have went more like yeah, Gail, I'm sorry for calling you
a dog headed.
Mo Can I can I just give you some advice if you ever position
to apologize to a woman don't repeat what the what the
infraction was in your apology
and this time We're all doing this for a perfect approach to
doing this but purpose. Just in this situation. I'm sorry for
calling you that term. And I will say the term. But that
still is stillness and take away from the fact that you ignored
Harvey Weinstein and I would have listed every name. This is
if Snoop is about standing all his calls. And this is not
pocketbook related
now. But
let me interject, Oh, y'all know where it's really leading. But
let me interject. He was kind of chicken shit not to do that to
start with. He was talking in code. In fact, that was code
that I didn't understand. He was talking in code. And unless
instead, he could have said, Hey, Gail, why are you doing
that to another to another black man? And you let the these white
guys off the hook so easy. That would have made it a different
conversation? And and actually would have skipped two weeks of
incredible bull crap in my life.
But this bull crap is good bull crap.
No, it's great for the show. I mean, no, it's the highest
quality bull crap. Arguing with the entertainment value, I'm
very good value. Yes.
But even bigger than the entertainment value, a lot of
things are being exposed. We're starting to see who's really
pulling the chains here. Yeah. And to figure it out, let's get
into the last apology clip. And then we'll get there,
it was important because it sets a cultural tone, that you do not
have to be engaged in threats and misogyny, I think beyond gal
and Snoop would concern me was the message he was sending to a
lot of people that listen to snoop. And that impacted by it.
And I think that they got a real education. And I hope this is a
teaching moment that Snoop will used to say to them, it is not
the manly thing to do to call women out their name, and to
threaten women and journalists for what they say. If he had
said he felt it was inappropriate or harmful to him.
The way she conducted the interview, whether you I agree
with that or not, he had the right to say that. But to
luminize her and to use massage in his church and to threaten
her was my concern. And you know, someone stabbed me in the
street just yesterday when I got off this show and said, I'm glad
you stood up for Gail. I said, I didn't stand up for Gail, I
stood up for my daughters. I stood up for people everywhere
to get me to stand up for young people all over this country and
older people as well, that I've marched for that should not be
called out their name. And we act like that. So Right. And I'm
so happy that it was validated and supported by snoop. And just
like we took a newborn, we all just give him his props and
praise Him for standing up and hopefully use this as a teaching
moment of many of his fans. Get to man up means to really be a
man and to be a man is to not disrespect women,
bro I'm sorry. Yes.
How many times it manhood being a man and up? Yeah. Yeah. You
see what you see what we're doing here? And mica Did you
hear me? Because tone? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Hard. Tom was very
chastising. And like a mother like, you know better than that.
And I think Reverend Al picked up on that because and he ran.
He was like, well, we have to, you know, forgive snoop. He has
to walk that back. Because the way it looked to me is like,
wow, they got you out here. So they can say whatever they want
to about snoop. And we're doing it in the presence of Reverend
Al so it can't be taken a certain way. If you get worse,
of course. So so he's more of a prop man than input.
And the difference with every other time we see Reverend now
being a prop is what he is a prop is a great process,
the subject matter, just the subject matter. That's the only
thing. Gotcha. So we want to ask, how do we get here we left
off last Tuesday, Wednesday. We live had made us see my apology.
I'm kind of walking back what he said. But that wasn't good
enough. Ms. NBC did an all out all encompassing attack or Snoop
Dogg? Oh, I don't know. Wait a minute. Wait
a minute. How did I miss this? I watch MSNBC. I miss it. I
seriously Um,
okay. Well, I don't know what their purpose was. I'm still
trying to figure it out. Now. I don't know if it was distraction
because of all the messes going on the Democratic primary, that
this is a great
Yeah. Hello. Hello. Yes. No, not just a segment filler. This is
perfect right now it's about the A das vote. We're in South
Carolina, we're going to Nevada. You know, this is we have Biden
saying he's got the the Obama fans. We've got budaj edge.
Everyone talk and Michael Bloomberg. Yeah, they're gonna
go to Bloomberg, which is a big joke. So it's completely in
place. So this would be the moment to split them. Do I still
have the goggles on? But is this the moment to split the Athos
men from the women?
This is the perfect moment. And one thing I want to point out is
the Democratic Party had no problem with Snoop Dogg and his
vile language towards women. And if you want to look at it that
way, when I invited him to perform at the DNC in 2016. Now
of course, I had no problem with that. No was fun. He was
actually like an unofficial steering surrogate for the
Democratic Party. Yep. They, they had no problem with this,
but now it's like, oh, he's bringing up valid points that
can ruin a bunch of our Boulay. But kissers and so
not just that. I mean, you can't touch Oprah. Gail. Okay, you
know, I was like, but, but you're getting close to Oprah.
Now we've got your with the code that he's talking.
She's the biggest Boulay butt kisser. There you go. So we're
gonna get that now. Here we are. So that attack first started on
gjorde reads Joy read show the non dos. Yeah, then they're not
a das Joy read. Who had Miss Tiffany cross on her show.
For the week, Tiffany? Okay, well, mine is a little more
complex. It doesn't need to be said. I think who won the week
or all the people who responded thoughtfully about the Gayle
King interview with Lisa Leslie, I was so disappointed in some of
the backlash that Gayle King got, listen, you know, as women
in media, we can be on the receiving end of these very
extreme comments. And so I will table the fact that was it
appropriate for Gayle King to pose the question about the Kobe
assault to Lisa Leslie. Look, however you feel about that
separate debate. What came after that this massage and noir and
all these horrible comments from very prominent men, including,
you know, Snoop Dogg who did his non apology apology this
morning. But you know, he called Gayle King out of her name,
talked about her physical appearance or hair, and I was
just so disappointed because people like you know, Reggie
Bush and LeBron James liked it and 50 cent you know, weighed in
on all these ugly things. days after the hashtag girl dad was
trying Right,
right. Oh, man, there's a lot there.
Did you did you catch what? I would have fall back. What did
you take away from that clip? I heard you say something. What?
Well,
honestly, I got kind of confused at the end when she took it to
the girls dead and then I kind of forgot all the other stuff I
was pissed off about.
Okay. She said that Kobe assault. Yes.
Yeah, that's yes. That's what I heard the Kobe assault. Yes.
Holy crap.
I thought he was acquitted. Well,
the case was dropped. There's no
I mean, withdraw. Excuse me. Yes. Give me drop. But I mean,
he he's not guilty anything so he can't be assault.
No, but that's not how the media works.
And they're doing exactly what exactly what Gayle King got
cussed out for
Yeah, they're doing exactly. Yeah, yeah, of course.
And and the hashtag cropped up. We stand with Gail. So this is
what she's thanking people for. For the hashtag dogs. Yes. So
Snoop Dogg. Instagram post was liked by LeBron James Reggie
Bush 50 cents and a host of other black men. And I'm
surprised they let I'm sure I'm gonna want to see how this plays
out in the end, because that their names on a list somewhere.
Like oh, okay, you really want to show your true colors.
Well, hold on a second. Let's talk about this. This
infiltrator on the on the non dos show. Tiffany cross Who is
she? She's clearly some some political animal. Where's she
coming from?
Yeah, she she the political pundit. She has a website that
she writes. She writes about political in pop culture issues
she makes she's she's somebody MSNBC brings on that they could
have rollout to be the black voice in this in this role she
was rolled out as the black woman voice. She said a lot of
things that get joy read probably felt that she wanted to
say but she wanted to, you know use this person for cover.
That's how I that's how I took it. But that Kobe assault that
that really I was like, wow, yeah, y'all are really doubling
down. And that she's those those names out there. Yeah. So
interesting. Well, let's let Tiffany continue.
And it was heartbreaking to see and it's just a reminder to
people that look, these are real people in front of the camera.
With real feelings. Gilkey is now walking around with the
security and you know, I was appreciative of the people who
came out and said, Whoa, timeout you guys are that does not honor
Kobe Bryant's legacy. This was a father of four daughters. Yeah.
Snoop Dogg is raising a daughter, LeBron is raising a
daughter, all these other people who who championed this message
of calling her out of her name. So I just appreciative to the
people who came out in Not to mention that Oprah because you
know they impugned Oprah. Oprah has done a lot for the black
community. So to say that these women don't do a lot and just as
black women, we ride so hard for black men, it was not fair was
not from our brothers. You know,
what, what, what do you say the bride? So what did she say we
ride so hard for black men? And let me just say that we
don't do a lot and just as black women we ride so hard for
what does that mean? We ride as black women, we ride so hard for
black men? What does that mean?
We take out for black men at all costs, which you're not kind of
doing that by letting Gil Gayle King get away with disparaging
Cobis legacy. Have you read so hard? My mind about exploded
when I heard this? What are you talking about? And if she
thought that there were brethren, you know, disappointed
to hear this from our brethren.
So I'm looking at Tiffany crosses, she doesn't have a
Wikipedia page, which is now she has a website. Yeah. And so
they're her bread and butter, I guess is the beat DC. The beat
dc.com and their their positioning statement on the
website is the intersection of politics policy and people of
color.
Color people
but it doesn't work if you do. The Alliteration is beautiful.
But that takes that totally taken the course it's it's not
all about what Snoop was mad about to that's not just a pivot
we're full on into MMA and these guys all have daughters so we
back to girls dead now. Is that the idea?
Yeah, that's they want to hijack and put Kobe inside that box of
girl dad got it. And what Snoop did was kind of ruin it by
coming with what he said. And on top of all of that, it's amazing
that if you rise so hard for black men, why didn't you say
well, sit snoot start the conversation. Let's talk about
Harvey Weinstein. Let's talk about other people. That last
you know, Trump's who no pun intended Yeah,
no, I hear Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
So this final little snippet from this from this overall clip
just shows you how threatening ovaries
first of all I'm gonna white guy and I know not to pick on Oprah
All right, no, you don't you they will need dental records.
They will need dental records
depends. Only if you're an ugly old white guy who's a pervert,
then you're good to go. Otherwise, yeah, you don't need
dental records. Wow. Who was that?
I have no clue. I just found that to be amazing that oh, you
enjoy reading the background. She's right. That's
that's that's worth another play. First of all, I'm gonna
white guy and I know not to pick on Oprah. All right, no, you
don't. You will need dental records.
That's, that's the little the vasectomy guy, Chris Hayes.
That's Chris
Hayes. older white guy with a beard and
with a beard and a hat. Well, yeah,
he was. Yeah, he
was inconsequential to the story, but I was it was like at
the end did a clip and I was like, Wow, he's really scared
like, Oh yeah, you need did you come
over? Oh, yeah, well.
So that wraps the Jordan Reed Show. And then the follow up
episode morning, Joe, is where they really ratchet it up
starting with Reverend Al.
On it is to become a Gayle King to fight gender bias and race
bias and walk in studios that didn't invite you. on Oprah, for
that matter is hard to be a Snoop Dogg to come out of the
streets, all of us have a hard road to travel and when we start
shooting at each other, and when we start getting in the way of
doing each other's jobs and threatening each other, and
acting like it's acceptable for us to be ugly, because we may
disagree on timing, that's when some of us must step up and say
hold it, we need to stop this and stop it now. So you can call
me soft or sell out whatever you want to call me that she doesn't
deserve.
God bless your rubber now for defending a black female
journalist who had her life threatened on Instagram.
Oh my god, I had my life threatened on Instagram by Snoop
Dogg. And if something happened to me, we never would have known
who done it. Because it happened on Instagram. This is crazy.
And there were there was something I want to point out
last show, which this recovering gave me a great opportunity. So
you remember the woman that used the Washington worked at The
Washington Post? And she posted this story about Kobe Bryant
right after he died? Yes, of course. She she received death
threats. So you can't say Snoop Dogg saying what he said is the
one to one correlation.
But yeah, Mo I'm sorry. And I don't know what clips you have.
But the I've only seen one Morning Joe clip of this. And
it's and my daughter even sent it to me. She said oh my god,
these people are freaking out. Not just a woman but a black
woman. So I think there's a difference. You can be a white
female journalist with death threats, man. But if you're a
black female journalist related to Oprah Whoa. So there's a
clear difference. It's not about being a journalist. It's about
being and not even about being a woman.
And the point I'm trying to make is she would receive death
threats regardless if Snoop Dogg say anything or not right, but
they're shot and a mate Snoop Dogg but the bad gate go Yeah,
of course. Yeah. For all he's the reason why I'm getting death
threats. She really got death threats. I believe not from
snoop. You can't say his No. I took it as just what I took it
as is that we're coming for you won't come up for you on the
internet. You know? Yeah. Drag you you know that kind of thing.
I didn't take it. Oh, I'm gonna be waiting your bushes. Gail,
you know to make powder. I
don't send any I don't think anyone took it that way. What
does Black Twitter say?
Well, it's divided. You have pro you have the Pro feminist. Those
liberal
those who have already bought into the program and those who
haven't that's got to be your dividing line right there. Those
who are have already been indoctrinated and those who have
yet to be indoctrinated.
And to further widen the gap, we have Joe's BS rant. Hey, welcome
back to Morning Joe. I just want to follow up on his yellow King
story. Really quick, Rev. You've been talking about it for the
past several days. We brought it up a couple of days ago. I gotta
say I just again, starkest terms. A black woman, who is a
journalist, has her life threatened from a guy who has 39
million people. That post is still up. The post is still up.
She faces threats and abuse. Her children are now facing threats.
Security. She now Gilkey now has to have 24 hour security. And
I'll be damned. Have I read The New York Times editorialize
about it know what's on your bullshit about protecting
journalists? When you have a black woman whose life was
threatened nothing their Wall Street Journal? Nothing. Wait,
what are you doing? What are you doing? Where's Viacom? CBS has a
USA Today. Where are you? A black female journalists life
has been threatened. She and her children fear for their lives.
And you aren't writing about this. All is everything that
you've said about Donald Trump, threatening members of the press
nonsense. Do you really not mean it Have you really not? None of
that about Donald Trump? Is that all politics? Yes.
Do you have do you have the rest do do the rest of this one did
the rest.
I got the whole of
my I got my daughter sent me this. She sent me the clip, you
know, and she's 29
and, and she's having none of this, of course. And she says,
Look at this. This is a dad, you got to look at this. This is
probably a clip for the show. And I'm gonna try and do her
voice.
Black woman. Black Woman horn horn horn horn emoji. Oh, I'm
not even black dad. And he had me clutching my pearls in my
Sunday hat a black woman. I mean, this is insane. Why,
though? Why?
And you hear me get in the background. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Totally says employer. That's his employer. Yeah.
Viacom, Viacom go after that. Yeah, go. Is that what you see
here? That is? Just close your eyes. And imagine it is Twitter.
That is Kancil culture on MSN DC. They were doing this to
cancel snoop.
Yes. And this is a form of email escalation.
We did you hear? Did you hear the apology? sniffs balls are
gone.
And then and then you hear her? That's not even a real apology.
For him to say that. Now girls don't make a right eye. Good
enough. I know.
What her in the back. I mean, like the morning, Tom dominants.
Silk is like Yeah.
That's right. Preach.
She's in the background doing that. I'm like, What is going on
here? The way this come from Joe. And another thing, Joe, if
you're listening, because you might be listening, Joe, I want
you to keep this same energy. Yes. The fleet keep the same
hand to when we started talking about stop and frisk and all the
things Bloomberg did you know, is the New York Times on the
writing about this because it knows about Trump? You know, I
want you to keep that same. Please. Yes, that same thing
that you got going there, Joe?
Hey, don't hold your breath. I'm not but we'll be here. Yeah, we
will be here. Rent to
Where's corporate America? Because there are
where is core? America? Where is Viacom partnerships, let me set
you up against a black female journalist fears for her life
this morning. Her children are facing abuse and threats. The
New York Times The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal,
Viacom, no body is talking about this after preaching on a
mountain for years, about how dangerous it is when Donald
Trump threatens members of the press. Just why I think it's
dangerous. We Donald Trump threatened some members of the
press. And I think it's dangerous when pop culture
figures threatened members of the press, especially a black
woman doing her job who was only doing her job. You know what, we
can have a debate whether the question should have been asked
or not work. So beyond that right now. We are so beyond that
right now. What's the conspiracy of silence about New York Times?
Why aren't you writing about this? What about you, Washington
Post, Wall Street Journal? Where are you? Viacom? Where are you?
A black woman has gone to bed a journalist in fear of her life
I'm beside myself.
You know, it's it's almost it's not understandable. Exactly.
I mean, I've seen them pissed off the two of them, but I've
never never seen it quite like this.
For the life of me, I cannot figure it out. I don't know if
you got a grudge or if it's like we're gonna make this a huge
distraction or we will make an example out of Snoop that you
won't step out of line on your sanity. 2020 or this is what
you'll get are a little bit of all three. But for him to go on
that rant like that, and call out all these different
organizations and corporations. And like via Calm. Yeah, that's
where he works.
Only there's only one thing I can imagine. Yeah, that's Oprah
calling for Joe and Mika, I've got a little message for you.
What else could it be?
Maybe but so that goes to show you that Oprah has no real
power. Because this a pilot, she didn't give this apology when
she went up there and gave her crocodile tears. And she's not
doing so well right now. None of that. They had to go get there.
And you'll get there white gatekeepers. The power behind
the power the power behind the puppets. This is what it looks
like she couldn't get snow castle. No. So you know.
She couldn't she can't she can't. The Oprah couldn't
actually come out and cancel snoop. That would not be
accepted. But yes, you're right, get get the hit squad.
She doesn't have the power to because her power it see. That's
how we got to understand. And the reason why I did this is
we're really seeing the Boulais and they really have no power.
They carry water. That's what Boulais means advisors to the
king. That's what they all they do is they get their talking
points. They run out here and they black, explain it to black
people. And then they run back to their hole again to get more
marching orders. When they run out and they and when you step
out of line. They sit up or out form. But Oprah's fake tears can
get snoot cancel. So they say Okay, step aside your little
child, Oprah. Let me show you how it's done. Let me show you
out. Our real lynch mob is done. And this is what this is. This
is a lynching lynching and in and I know that you think are
probably being like a stream here, but no. Well, I take that
very seriously. We have to have him meal. We have to have him
new. That's the mindset.
Really, you're right. No MO You know, you're right, man. This
This was from high on order. This was some kind of like a
real a real note one out feels like
a memo, a memo. Now,
just because I'm always trying to look for the little
connections of Viacom, because yelling about Viacom, Viacom,
Viacom, New York Times it but there's also no real love
between Viacom and Oprah.
Okay, maybe that's the
hard part of it. It's part of it as part of it feels like Tyler
Perry, was hired away from Oprah's network by Viacom. Okay.
Oh, yeah. BT. Yeah, that makes that makes sense. So
that could be something there. But yeah, I mean, it's like you
just you don't you don't do this to the Queen, or her lover. I
mean, her friend.
And the tone, the tone of these two of Joe and Mika. It's like,
it's so liberating. It
sounds like their their life depends on it. Almost.
True. Are you got to earn your I think a lot of 2020 a lot of
people are gonna have to earn their work. Keep a lot.
Yeah, good point. I was gonna say this went above and beyond
the typical. I'm going to be loud and controversial. To get
attention for ratings. This was something else this was
emotional. And could I've watched lots of morning, Joe.
I'm not I've never seen this. And that again, you know, it. My
kid is sending this to me. And she's saying that some for the
show, which I'm sure she doesn't listen to that often. Then, you
know, then it hit the mark, you know, then the word is out.
And he's throwing papers, and he's breathing fire. And we're
not even done yet. Rent three.
And there's a conspiracy of silence. Reverend, you've,
you're one of the few people that's been talking about this.
What in the hell is going on?
The fact is what you just expressed in very passionate
terms, is my concern is not about Snoop Dogg. I like Snoop
Dogg. I defended him doing a gospel record. This is about a
precedent of letting people infer threats and directly call
women out. It was it was indirect
profanity that was used.
I've been saying for years we cannot use the N word V word or
H word for me to not have said something because it's somebody
that I know I think is a hide of hypocrisy and I get all kinds of
pushback I've got clapped back but I must stand by the fact
that women should not be called out of their name.
Correctly LeBron likes to pose
and and and Name one person on the Set Name one person in
entertainment doing talk shows who did who would post something
like this that wouldn't be fired in three seconds, by the way.
Oh, man.
This is interesting. So I'm hearing out. He's getting
pressure pressure from from the community.
He's walking a razor blade. Yeah, he is. He's moonwalking on
razor blade because he, his real power comes from the people in
the streets. Yeah, the people in the street don't like Snoop
Dogg.
And I presume LeBron and all those guys who are liking the
post are also saying, we know what's going on. Or not the
brightest.
So calculate it. Yeah. Go back. Go back to the China. Yeah. Good
point on the show. Yeah, he saw calculated he said, Oh, the
people are going this way. So I'm going with the people.
Right? That that's the calculation he made. But the
Brian, you just made your name on somebody's list. Be careful,
brother. Because for sure, this is how it happens. I'm being
honest. We this is how it happens. You piss somebody off.
It's like, okay, we'll let you know be great right now. But any
chance we get? And it's the irony of this? This is exactly
exactly exactly what the problem was exactly what Snoop Dogg was
calling Gail out for?
Yes. And now they just add more names to the list LeBron, and
you know, we need to Reggie Bush,
we need to do the MO facts celebrity consulting group. So
we can tell these people what to do and what not to do because
they're really messing it up. Wow, this is twisted. Yeah. And
I like it a lot.
So let's close up with our rent for
they were filming yesterday with Martha Stewart. He they were
filming yesterday for the h one. The Martha and Snoop's series
potluck party challenge. It's supposed to be on the air
tomorrow night. Yesterday. Yesterday they were filming
Martha Stewart was there William Shatner was there tomorrow.
bruxner was there Trey Songz was there. They were all there
working with snoop on set to film an edition of the show that
will show they
say he's for himself. They say he walked it back, he did an
additional post, still leaving the threatening profanity laced
post up that millions of people can watch right now. He did an
additional post sort of trying to make Gael look old or trying
to do little dog whistles while sort of saying maybe we're not
violent. It was not an apology. He did not pull it back. He
actually made it worse. And he kept his post up
mish. Wow. No, that's that's a great observation that this this
was a total kit job. But it only makes it it only deepens the
conspiracy. Why? Why is it? Well, we we kind of know why.
But we understand why there's a division to be made between
Athos men and women. And this is mainly political and for power
power reasons. But why let all of the the shitty white guys off
the hook? And also for power reasons that's pretty
disempowering in my mind.
Well, as long as I can appear to have power, true, that's the
Boulais never wants to have power. That's the big, big
misconception. It's like we're kept we're well kept. We're
pets. You know, we don't go out and earn for ourselves. We're
given our daily bread. Yeah. Oh, some people will call it butter
biscuits. But and that's what they do. They go and they do.
You see around now, wherever l is only there because MSNBC cuts
his check. And he's between a rock and a hard place. And
they're like, owl. We need to
man up man up owl.
Yeah. And you see what happened. So this puts the nice little bow
on the Snoop Dog story, but I felt I had to bring it to
closure. Because I thought it would end at the end of last
show. But then this happened. I was like, I knew he was gonna
have to apologize. I thought the lat that how we ended last year
would be the apology but no
I have a feeling that this may continue mo I'm not so sure this
won't come back this. This could continue. There's we got a new
list, we got a fresh list. Let's just review the list. We got
LeBron on the list. Who else is on the list? Who's making sense?
Did he sent who? Yeah. Which brings you bushes? Thank you.
Reggie Bush. He's not one of the
one of George W. Bush's kids. Reggie Bush.
The Trump tape? Oh, well, yeah, this. This is not it's not all
for Snoop Dogg either. No way. He's gonna have to be he's gonna
have to be taught a lesson. And they're gonna parade him out.
I'm calling it now six, maybe 656 months from now. He's gonna
write a book a co author a book, combating toxic misogyny. You
know, no,
no, no documentary documentary? Yeah, yeah, that'd be better.
That'd be better. And he's gonna have to go on probably on Gayle
King and Gayle King Show. To be taught Yeah, to be taught how to
be a real man. And that was by giving you my my, my testicles.
Here you go.
We know they're all gone. And I heard him in that in that tape.
They're gone.
Yeah, that's, that's why he gave them to her. And but now he's
gonna have to go back and you know, and he's gonna, I'm
calling me. He's gonna have to go back on a book tour. Because
they did this with Kevin Hart. Remember Kevin Hart apologized
course. And then they brought it back again? Much later. Yeah. He
had to go apologize all over. Well, no,
he didn't know he didn't. He said screw that. I mean, so I
think he I'm, I'm appreciative of what Kevin Hart did, to know
already apologized. He's
had to explain himself, though. I mean, you apologize once and
it's like, wow, I gotta keep explaining myself.
But which is ultimately why you said I want to host Yeah.
So there we have it. That's the Snoop Dogg story. And that's the
end of the first segment. So I love new money.
I like new money. I don't know if you do, but I hate old money
that's wrinkled and dirty and got all the diseases on it. I
like new money. And when I give when I give things to people, I
like to give stacks of money. It's fun. You ever had a stack
of new money? Heavy? You haven't? Had you? A little
snack? Oh. And so I made the big stack, which was brand new, and
I like brand new money. I just I don't want any money around me.
It's not. I don't want to have a new one than a brand than an old
20. That's kind of dumb. But there's something about new
money that excites you. You like $100 bills, owe money to the
most beautiful thing on earth is $100. Bill, I haven't seen a
woman is good looking at $100. Bill to excite you
is this.
This is Pastor Mike Murdock. He loves new money.
I love your choice of intro to our first ever donation segment.
That's fantastic Mo. Yeah, well, we don't have too many of those.
But over the past six months, that is the crisp hundies. Over
the past six months, as we've been asking for people to
support the work that we do here, we purposely have no
commercials, no corporate money, there's no nothing comes into
the show. Because obviously, just look at what we talked
about just minutes ago. The topics that we discussed and the
end of freedom, we have to speak about it would not last, people
would immediately go after advertising etc. And the
canceled culture would be complete. And so we'd like to be
more bulletproof than that. And this is why we hold on to the
value for value model, what we're going to do, and we'll
probably do this every show, it'll be a heck of a lot
shorter. Because this is a this is the everything from the past
six months all added together. And literally we have added
because a lot of people had multiple donations. So we
tallied those up and we put it all into into one, one overview.
And what we since you are actually producers of the show,
and that's the only way to look at it. Because besides you know,
you're hitting us up with topics you're helping with promotion.
You're retweeting. And by the way, we need you to help us out
on YouTube as well. Mo How do we do that?
Please go to mo facts mo e f, a c, t, z, and subscribe. And like
all the videos even if you listen on another platform,
podcast app or whatever, please come to YouTube and like the
videos because it'll help circulate and get the word out.
here. Yeah, and
what's with the hashtags? Something else for YouTube? We
got to do?
Oh, yeah, we'll start putting hashtags for the show topics.
That way also help people find us because our show titles are
useless in that, for that, for that purpose, Oh, of course they
are. But they are.
Incredibly, they look intelligent, they just don't
help at all, but most clearly in charge of the YouTube stuff. So
kind of the standard that was set at the no agenda show for
producers for titles, we'd like to do that. So I'd have two
different donation segments, this may be the first one for a
long time since, again, a lot of these are amounts that have
built up over the past six months of people donating. So
you get an official credit, an actual title, this is just like
Hollywood gives out, there's nothing different about it, you
can call yourself and Associate Executive Producer of Mo facts
episode number 26. But in this case, the people who are who are
here on this list today, you're just an Associate Executive
Producer of manufacturing, because it's you've been doing
this for a while. And that'll be at $200. And you'll be an
executive, you get an executive producer title, if if you donate
$300, for the episode, or up. And for those titles, you're
also welcome to add as much as you want in a note if you want
to put some feedback in there. If you like a good example of
it, you can go to the no agenda show. But I'm sure we'll we'll
have our own version of it. And there's a couple other things to
the to this model that we need to talk about. But first let's
thank the executive producers. So this is the current executive
producers of Mo fax the podcast, James Lawler and I think this
was a one time donation $517.19 this was a this was not this was
not a number of donations. This was just one correct?
Yes, it was just one donation and he said you know what the
number meant so
Oh, crap. 517 19 It's got to be see this is he said I would know
what a min I feel stupid, how high it's a date. Maybe it's
I'm picking a date to
517 We're gonna have to think about it. But thank you very
much, James, for the for the puzzle games. And, and you are
executive producer of Mo facts with Adam curry, Peter J. Boyle,
$450 aggregate and he has a note here. Keep up the great work on
the podcast. Thank you. And thank you, Peter, Mark, Jasper
$400. And Troy Dale Thomas comes in with $302 total over the past
six months, you too are also an executive producer of the MO fax
and you can proudly display that wherever you at LinkedIn is
actually a good place people seem to gravitate towards titles
like that again, real title. Wherever credits like this are
recognized. You'll look damn good Associate Executive
Producers $250 from Aaron bare, blonde Baker also $250 Steven
page $250 Michael Olson 225. And he says Kobe beef was notice I
pronounced it Kobe beef was phenomenal. Thank you. And John
Swoboda, a name familiar to me from no agenda show $200. And he
says thank you for your courage. And we thank you for your
courage, John. And those C 1234. Those five people are the
Associate Executive producers of Mo fax with Adam curry. And
we'll be thanking the rest of the people who donated kind of
in quick succession a little bit later on in this show. And
again, we thank you very much. And if you want to support us,
for any of these programs, just consider what kind of value got
from it, you learn something, it's worth it to you, whatever
that is go to mo facts.com or mo fund me.com mo e fund me.com
directly to our donation page. And help produce the show and
thank you very much.
Yeah, yeah. Thank you very much. We appreciate all that.
All right. So wait, I gotta do my right next. Wait, I don't
like that one. How about this one? There you go. That's the
next topic in our potluck special.
So this next story really irked me and we'll get into why but
another perspective on Dwayne Wade's child being transgender.
But anyway moving on and other celebrities the world is raving.
I don't know if you heard about but it's been reported that an
NBA star the way weighs 12 Your son is transitioning from male
to female not understand that a 12 year old boy whose name's
Zion Eber now goes by the name Azalea. Now they're saying the
Wayne spoke candidly and it'd be with Elon the generals would you
know we all love Ellen DeGeneres, which is going to add
later today they're saying they're saying in the interview
he discusses how being a father to desire formerly known as
Zion. There's an NBA baller revealed to Elena he reached out
to the cast oppose the foothills with dresses to help address the
situation
with which was this from?
This is from the Rickey smiley show.
This is on radio. Yes. Okay. And I
think it's, it's I have a YouTube channel as well with a
caption in studio. But yeah, this is from the Rickey smiley
show
sounds kind of show busy.
Yeah, it is one of those that everybody gets. Yeah, it's that
kind of kind of morning show. Hi, and morning show. Gotcha.
And he's gonna remember he's the one that replaced.
Tom Joyner. Tom Joyner. Yeah, well, listen, damn, I guess
that's what you get for the money. They actually paid for
that gig. Yeah. I'm wondering.
So this story, this story really irks me? And not for the obvious
reason? Because that's not what that's not why I'm covering this
topic. The child to publicly document a child change the
transitioning. I don't think that's a good luck.
Now, wait a minute. Now you person, because they're putting
this out there publicly you mean? Or they're actually going
to document every step of the way? I think
that their acts, he's 12. He's, he's 12 years old. And I just
don't think it's appropriate. That's something that you should
not be on tabloid news for. You understand what I'm saying?
Well,
yes. Well, let me let me say that now that 12 years old is I
think, a little young for any big life choices. But when
someone makes this dramatic life change, part of the whole idea
is that you the world knows it understands it, and converts in
in their own process. So it's hard to do that as a celebrity,
or a child of a celebrity. Without without it, obviously,
if you say okay, only friends and people that kids at school,
you know, that's gonna get out so he can't really cover it up.
So this would be something that might have to be, I would do
this and say, Hey, we're really proud. Here's what's happening.
And we'd like you to respect our privacy, and we're really not
going to talk about it anymore, that that would be the way to do
it. I don't think that's how it went down with Dwayne Wade.
That's my point. Yeah, gotcha. Hollywood is full of kids that's
transitioning, we see stars, and we see the kids and we see, we
kind of like put two and two together. But they don't talk
about it publicly.
It's like, like that. Chad, mono? No, that was like, Okay.
And it was still a lot of a lot of noise around it, but it was
just like, okay, just shut up. I'm not gonna talk about it, and
then just kind of became accepted. And, but, but that
happened later in life, I think for Chad, not at 12.
Right. And the other problem is that, well, let's just listen to
Dwayne Wade, talk to Elon about his supporting his child.
Thanks for being here. That was a clip from the ESPN
documentary. And first of all, I just, I think it's what every
you know, every parent should be is what you're being right now,
which is unconditionally loving your child and supporting your
child and whoever they are. I mean, there are so many parents
that are just Oh, you're not going the way I imagined or
wanted you to be and freak out and you're so loving and
supportive of Ziaja. And what a special child she is.
Yes, yes. Yes. Thank you so much for that. First of all, me and
my wife, my wife, Gabrielle Union, we are we are proud when
I say proud, we are proud parents, of a child in the LGBTQ
plus community, and we're proud allies as well. And we take our
roles and our responsibility as parents very seriously.
That's what did you ring your bell for their?
His wife, which is not the mother's child?
Oh, I didn't know conversation.
Oh, this is a twist. I was unaware of the conversation
is that she's kind of steering the child. As you know, have you
noticed in the news, she's suing Simon Cowell for smoking and she
had the big dust up with Terry Crews and she's always saying
things that keep her name in the news, more than or her acting
and her hers her own celebrity. Right. So it's a lot of
speculation I'll leave it at that. That she might be guiding
the child.
What is what is what is her name again?
Gabrielle Union she was in clue or not clueless she was in one
of those cheerleading movies and then she did bad boys to try to
think all the big movie she she did.
But I got him here oh man she's done quite a lot.
Yeah she's she's she's worked a lot in Hollywood but
bad boys to Think Like a Man delivers from even bring it on.
Bring it on, I think was that that was that was the
cheerleading movie right Bring it on? Yeah, that
was that was truly move. I remember I remember her from but
that's that's the whole story behind it. But my problem is why
you're making a public statement to the child is only 12 years
old. I think that's a little young, like like even said, for
any child to be making a lifelong decision. Three we
don't see this with other groups of people and their children.
It's more our private affair.
Right. But of course, she's she's that you know, this is
she's Hollywood. And he sports. You know, it's there's some
things going on there too.
Right. And how this all kicked off was it was originally they
showed up showed up at a pride parade. And she was there and
Zion was dancing on floats. And I have a real problem with take
your children to some of these get raised. Their adult themed?
Yes.
Especially San Francisco. I've I've I was there during Pride
and boy was very adult themed.
Yeah, so and then the other thing is to say a child is
homosexual or heterosexual means you're sexualizing the child.
Yes, sir. That's another problem I have with it. Now, if you have
a gender identity issue, and you're not sexualizing, the
child who am I to say, what anytime a child is sexually
sexualized, and I saw this with another child, he was the drag
queen, the 10 year old Dre said Ellen had him on the show and he
was spinning around the
child, this child abuse this complete child. It's crazy. So
I want to make it clear to the people that's listening. My
issue is not the transitioning. It's the sexual sexualization
and the promotion of that sexual realization
as men sensation or institutionalizing it as well.
They are there they it's sensationalizing. It's making a
big deal out of it.
So let's get into part two of the clip with Ellen.
So when I when a child comes home with a question, when a
child comes home with an issue, when a child comes home with
anything, it's our job as parents to listen to that to
give them the best information that we can, the best feedback
that we can. And that doesn't change because sexuality is now
involved in it. So once the 12 year old came home, first Zion
everybody, I don't know if everyone knows originally named
Zion, Zion born, as a boy came home and said, Hey, so I want to
talk to you guys. You know, I think going forward, I'm ready
to live my truth. And I want to be referenced that she and her I
would love for you guys to call me Ziaja. And so internally, now
is our job to one go out and get information to reach out to
every relationship that we have my wife reached out to everybody
on the cast of posts. We just tried to figure out as much
information we can to make sure that we give our child the best
opportunity to be you know, her best self.
Let me go tell everybody at work.
Now, as she read, okay, I don't know if you familiar with the
show pose? No, of course not. Okay, so pose is the show with
the ballroom dancing. Are you familiar with that culture?
Well, what ballroom dancing?
Yeah, the ballroom scene where the they do the voguing and
these guys dressed up as women. Yes. identify as women. Sure.
They do all the voguing and, yeah. To take your child to talk
to there's better sources. You're a millionaire, your
wife's a millionaire. And you take them to a TV show. Okay?
asked this, it did. And I was on the fence about doing this this
segment of the show.
The problem I have is I really don't know enough about them.
And I don't think anyone can worry about any of the people on
the cast. I mean, the people that cast could be a fantastic,
fantastic bunch of people. True, but it all of this being done
out in the open is part of the well. You know, this is the way
to go, I guess. I'm not sure. I mean, I've, I've read the book,
I bought the book, specifically, how to know if your child is
transgender and what to do about it. And I swear to God, and this
is the book, this is the book that all these all the parents
have trend of kids who want to transition or are transitioning
read. And I bought a specifically to understand 80%
of the book is political. You know how to deal with this, how
to deal with these people how to deal with how to it's like a
roadmap for the parents. It 20% is about the kid.
And that's, that's, that's what I'm saying.
So I've educated myself as the child that help. Yeah, I've
educated myself as best as I could. But I mean, please.
And what I mean by help is if you want to get the child help
to embrace their new life, if that's their choice, fine. If
you want to say, well, we might want to slow it down, we're not
going to discourage you. If that's their choice to eat
cheese, okay, I'm not one of those people to try to tell
people how to parent their child. But when my issue is the
sexual sexualization of the child, whatever that's like me
saying, Yeah, my mom, my 12 year old daughter, she's a
heterosexual. If I said that people aren't How do you know? I
mean, like how you don't say like, that's a bold statement. I
say, but I hear you.
So we have I have a clip from Rickey smiley here. And he
provides another perspective on this story.
Yeah. everybody's opinion because you know, is Dave's
Okay, um, die.
Yep. Yep. Yep. So just let it go. But
then he got the baby up here. They take a found a pitch and
the baby up here to where you are with a wood acrylic nails on
the critic nails, and a halter top shirt on now. Be what you
want to be. But the question is, if that boy was a real girl, is
it appropriate? Cuz my 12 year old daughter wouldn't have on
know how to talk? No acrylic, acrylic nails? My 12 year old
girl, right? They got plenty of time for that. They got the rest
of they like to do that. Now why do you got the march that out in
front of everybody. And that's still a child. This is this is
me. Now you can get mad at me and the LG BT community can
attack me or whatever and say whatever they want to say. But
I'm just talking about just as a parent, you got to use a certain
amount of discretion. And it almost feels like exploitation
to a child's sexuality.
Yeah, yeah.
Trying to you don't know, I kind of kind of catch you flat footed
with this story. Not really. But that's why I'm trying to
normally say as far as you don't know, specifically, this story,
the tangent images that go with it and the images as Ricky
Smiley was saying is the picture they took the kid got like,
three four inch acrylic nails on and crop top. And it's like,
that's just started when?
Yeah, exactly. It's inappropriate. I got I got lucky
because my daughter when she was around 12 she was into Good
Charlotte and she just wore black black pants, black, black
hair, black eyes, black, black, everything. How unattractive?
Can I make myself like it is good. I like where you're going
with this. This is perfect. Keep them away.
I have a 16 year old daughter. I have a 10 year old daughter. So
he falls in the ages of those two. And really, girls not
really get into how I say like doing their hair. I want to say
that like you know, obsessing over it in the nails and stuff
till about 1516 years old makeup, that kind of thing. You
got a 12 year old boy getting acrylic nails and wearing crop
tops.
Well now, because because she's chosen it. I'm going to
recognize her as a girl and I'll say Xi'an I'll say girl just use
me. Yeah, yeah. Okay. I've actually
got to be fair on that. But I yeah, I'm seeing the pictures. I
understand. Now. It's in a pro propria to inappropriate
and and with the whole backdrop now, the ladies cut these out,
going oh, I know it's coming. I mean, I'm just sitting here
waiting for the hammer to fall.
We've talked about the emasculation of black men
putting black men in dresses in Hollywood and
feeling guilty for it. Oh, you mean like Martin Lawrence. And
then, and what's his face? So Chappelle?
Yeah, Chappelle little NAS X. I mean, we see all the things that
is constant, we only make 6% of America, black men. 6%. Now, how
many of the flamboyant
homosexuals do black men represent in Hollywood? Is over
represented and we've done this show, we've done the show on
this. And the whole point I'm trying to make is when you see
it through that lens, and maybe people can't see it. How? Rickey
smiley sees it, how I see it, that wow, like,
let me let me let me play this back to you. So you're seeing in
Hollywood, when you look at Hollywood production, you're
seeing an over an an unrealistic inflated amount of black men who
are gay, flamboyant, definitely not your typical masculine
representation of a man.
Correct. I mean, you see, you have Billy Porter, you have Rue
Paul, you have little NAS X. I mean, the list goes on. And what
we're looking for is the counterparts in other cultures,
and you don't see it. We only make 6% of the population black
men do 6%. Yes. Okay.
Thank you for thank you for clarifying that. Because of
course, of course, I don't see it that way. I will now though,
this show ruins me as all this shit and people of color. And I
got to see all the gotta pay attention the black man on TV,
like God.
And like I said, if if she was 1718 years old, that's fine. I
don't have a problem with it now. But the fact that I'm a
parent, I don't like to see kids misuse. Of course. That's the
whole. That's the whole reason for I even took up for me. Okay,
saying he was the modern day. Greta. I mean, he didn't have a
choice, a lot of choices in the way he was being steered. Right.
I'm fair across the board. But when you look at this as a, as a
whole, a lot of people don't understand what Snoop Dogg was
saying, and why he was so angry. Well, yeah,
of course. Oh, yeah. When once you know what's going on, and
once you know why he's mad, and what it's really about, but of
course, even even that fleeting moment of understanding is just
being plowed over by the mainstream and their own agenda.
But anyway, I don't want to go back to that I want to stick
with the story in here where you got taken it next,
we have one of our favorite YouTubers, Mr. Krakoa, jeweler
144. And he chimes in D wave son,
if they were truly concerned about supporting this young man,
and they would have made sure that they imbued him with
masculine energy so that he could understand exactly what
his role is supposed to be in this society. And this is why
brothers again, a lot of you guys have a hard time
understanding why come out against the so called Pro
blacks, because this is what they actually about. The so
called Pro blacks, for the most part, they're not for the
empowerment of so called black people. They use the pro black,
the black stuff, especially the celebrities who try to act like
they're pro black. They use the fake pro black, the black stuff,
as a cover to get you to let your guard down. Then they want
you to accept what they're really about what just
pansexuality, transgenderism, homosexuality, lesbianism,
pettah, rasti, etc. That's what they're actually about. Because
they're sexualizing, this young boy right here, for him to say
that he's a homosexual. What he's really saying is that he's
attracted to other young boys or grown men. Right? They're
sexualizing him.
Some people may hear this and think, Oh, he's bigoted Are you
know, he's not understanding what we're talking about the
bigger story here or the bigger picture. And so, I found this
interesting clip from an unlikely source. Mr. David Icke
are you Oh, yeah, David Icke is the granddaddy of of the lizard
people. Of course, I know David Icke, and I respect him
incredibly for a lot of his lectures, books, all kinds of
stuff. He's very interesting guy.
Well, this is a nonlinear clip. But what Want to listen to his
thoughts on the transgender movement?
So if you look at the transgender thing, again, it
comes under this heading of if it's the agenda, you won't have
the right for another opinion. Because if you're trying to sell
the idea that there is no biological difference between
men and women, well, you're on a loser, because you can't win
that debate. But if you silence the opposition, and you
intimidate them into silence, through abuse, and all the rest
of it that comes from that, then you don't have to win the
debate, because there is no debate, and your view will
prevail, and we're seeing it prevail all the time.
So as you're, as you're thinking here, Mo that this child is
being used slash abused, to further the agenda and to
silence the debate.
That's exactly what it is. When you look at all the data points,
when you look at how black men are being portrayed in the
media, it's black and emasculation program that's
being ran.
Okay. Yeah. All right now, now, I totally understand. Okay, so
I'm going to play this back. So when you look at television,
Hollywood movies, etc, you're already seeing and a high
percentage of men in non traditional masculine roles. And
then you get all this kind of stuffs thrown on top. Of course,
we're just coming out of the Snoop Dogg thing with Gail and
Oprah. And we know what's really behind that. And then this needs
to be put front and center. I can totally see where you're
coming from.
Now, is it real? I can't say yes or no, but I know how it feels
to me. It feels
to you I'm sure. I'm just gonna take a guess it feels like
there's a systematic thing at work here.
Correct. That's exactly right. And it's and even even if you
say something, and if you can't really go back and listen to it,
but when Rickey smiley first started talking, he was
stuttering, he couldn't find
his words. It was him to say it. Yeah. Yeah.
Is this where we're at? Well, we can't even talk about it. But
the art we can't rebut the argument and according to David
Icke, that's exactly where we're at. And that's the plan. And he
continues on with that and clip number two, if people
feel that they're in the wrong body. That's none of my
business. It's their business. But if they want to self
identify as as a sex different to their body, good luck to you,
mate. Is a it's your right to do that and be it's none of my
business. But that's not what it's about. That's the foot in
the door. The foot in the door says we must not discriminate
against transgender people. Okay, my hands go up. Absolutely
agree with it. We shouldn't shouldn't be discriminate
against anybody. But that's when it starts. And then it starts to
move. And now suddenly, you can't say this. You can't say
that. You can't have this opinion on that opinion. If
you're a parent and you don't like what's being taught to your
kids at school, then then then you're a beggar and your your
your your your auntie your your trans phobic. And the whole
thing expands from the initial we must have discriminated
against transgender people.
Yes. Call man I'm so glad you brought this this is deep, by
the way. Because this, this Yeah, sure. It's
black men now. You know, the this is
this is an overall attack on men. I think. This is exactly
what he's saying is so right. Because even I'm like, How do I
exactly how can I say what I'm feeling. I'm not quite sure how
to put it into words. But the whole point is even struggling
and having the conversation, you know, in the back of your mind,
there's someone going to transfer. And that's how it
works, I guess. And then you got to read I'll send you I'll send
you a copy of this book. That the all parents are reading who
believe their child wants to transition or feel it or the kid
has said or whatever it is. It's kind of the book, and you'll see
what I mean It's, that's why this is kind of hitting home
what you're saying here, it's 80% political. How do you deal
with this? How do you deal with school height? You know not
about? How do you love the child? How do you shepherd your
child through this job? Well, you could, here's all the
numbers you can call, it looks a heck of a lot like a program now
that you've brought this to my attention.
And as he said, they keep pushing. Not. And when I say
things like black people, white people, transgender people, I'm
not talking about the every day that you just turn run into meal
people. I'm not talking about those people. I'm talking about
the icons or the representations that they use and the media.
Yes, that's my problem. Because these these tools that they're
using the media, and I don't mean it as a disparaging remark,
but it's kind of like how talking about the Boulais. It's
the same thing. They use these talking heads and these talking
points to shape society. Yes. And once they start pushing, if
you don't stand your ground and say, No, I'm not going to go
back any further. Now you can live in your space. I can live
in my space, and we can coexist with each other, but you're not
going to infringe. And make me change my mind on what I believe
I can respect your beliefs. We do a dishonest show all the
time. might not agree with something you say. Okay, that's
fine. Okay, we'll agree to disagree and we'll keep moving
on. But this next clip is an exact example of not only can
they exist in their world in the way they want to exist, they
want to infringe on institutions. And case in point
is Billy Porter on Sesame Street.
Me and Tony Award winning actor Billy Porter has some words for
those who have spoken out about him wearing a dress on Sesame
Street. Now last month, pictures were posted of Billy onset of
season 51 of the long running children's series wearing a
velvet gown. The same incredible velvet Christian Siriano gown he
wore to the 2019 Oscars, a Republican state senator from
Arkansas, whose name shall not be named, said in a Facebook
post. Do you approve of your taxpayer dollars being used to
promote radical LGBTQ agenda? He added he would like a bill to
cut off all funding to PBS. Yeah, okay. Well, last night,
Billy had the best response telling Page Six if you don't
like it, don't watch it. Now listen, it really is that
simple. Let me break it down for you. In simple terms, think of
it like this. I don't like sci fi. So I don't watch it. I hate
steak. Sweat. Don't eat it. Do sci fi and steak still exist?
Yes, they do. Senator no name queer people exist. It is not an
agenda and we are not going anywhere. So Are you offended?
Billy wore a gown on Sesame Street. As a parent, is it best
to ignore a man in a dress for to explain to your children why
a man is in a dress? Do you think PBS is funding should be
cut? Let me know in the comments below.
Oh, man, oh, I hate this. I really hate this one. Let me say
first, I come from show business since I was 15, but really 19
And I've always enjoyed the colorful people in the business.
We had Boy George back in the day. You know, there's Elton
John, that may is another perfect example. Color for
people bring color and Joy to the world in their own unique
way. But that was on you know, like you had to be an adult you
buy a ticket to go see the show. He would be in the in the
context of of an entertainment based program, which is fun. You
know, it's fun to have someone different, not the same old
boring people. I enjoy that. And I appreciate it. Sesame Street
is a learning tool. And I think it's there's other ways to
introduce there's other ways to introduce this to children. Now
to immediately take it to do you think that this is just some
bullshit asshole who's like, do you think TBS should be
defended? PBS should be defunded by the government because they
make money from the military industrial complex. It's all
brought to you by Raytheon and and the Grumman. It's they don't
need government money for this but that's thought the position
of Sesame Street Sesame Street is, is a tradition. You know and
it's it's it stands for something and it's changed over
time. But I think there's other ways to do this than Billy
Porter. I think Billy Porter is qualified to instruct children.
I did like his dress. In the end the hat at the at the Oscars.
I gotta say this, I will say the same thing, if it had a puppet
with a maggot hat on spewing dots,
he can't have that either. No, I,
this is not meant for you. This is for children. Most parents,
they want to stick their kid now in front of Sesame Street, you
know, with some animal crackers. And like, you know, and not have
to worry about their child being steered. It's not about where
you're steering them. It's like them learning numbers, their
letters that colors, how crayons are made. And that's fine. For
Sesame Street, but that's the problem. It's just, it's this
one after another after another, pushing these boundaries. And
then it's every calls. You know, when you push that spring now is
gonna have to recall and then when it does this, like seed,
like this guy said, oh, yeah, I don't like steaks. I don't eat
it. That's total many. How many groups are like you don't need
to eat meat? Meat killing the planet? Exactly.
Thank you Bernie Sanders, speech interrupted by women against
cow's milk.
Right. So I just wanted to bring that up. It's just that the
black community is always have been embracing of homosexual
people. Yes. Very true. We proved that with the episode we
did about Harlem. And so we talk about, well, let me stop
arresting Hold on. Let
me stop. Let me stop you for a second. You make a blanket
statement there, which I don't think a lot of people agree
with. That my perception. And you know where I'm coming from
my perception is that black men, a das men just to make it
specific, because I think that there is a difference. In my
perception, do not like homosexuality.
Okay. We may not agree with it. Because you made a valid point,
if a person wants to be called by a man, and when I have this
argument with some of the people that agree with me, they will I
mean, I'm not calling them, you know that or why would you
antagonize a person? If you want to be? You know, I knew you're
sad person and they want to be called Patti Spain. Okay, that's
your name, Patti. Spang. And they were transitioning what up
cool, whatever. That's what you want to be called Muhammad Ali,
change his name, to antagonize a person. That's one thing. But
then you say what do you agree? No, but it mean, that's your
life? Why can't we have that stance? But when you say you
don't agree, then that's when they get wanting to throw you in
a reeducation camp. And he's like, you have to you have to
comply you have to comply. So accepting you can disagree with
something except
would you? Would you Okay, would you? Let me try this science?
Would you agree that white men in general in America I just
keep in America are more accepting of men exhibiting non
masculine flamboyant behavior versus a Dawson and this is
where I think we do need to take the account take into account
the historical assault on Athos men.
That's the point. This thinking I can't think of the white
version of a RuPaul right off the top of my head. I can't
think of it.
Billy Paul RuPaul almost looks white sometimes.
I'm just saying But who is the equivalent and pop culture that
I mean, we use
you guys, you you MO You guys got RuPaul you know, and I think
every guy looks at porn like shit, man. Now, what are the
white guys get? We get divine if you can remember. That's what we
got. Is that Is that too old a reference for you?
I think I know who you're talking about. Talking about it.
Yeah. Yeah, I'm just saying that. The flamboyant and you get
Anderson Cooper. Right. That's that's unweit
Well, Oh, okay. Well, Anderson Cooper on New Year's Eve as an
example, I'm like, Oh, please, it's too gay for me.
And I'm gonna say this. I'm gonna say this and we can move
on to the next blog. I just want to say make this one point. Why
is it when white men become flamboyant, they emulate black
women.
Oh, this is Thank you. You're asking me I wish I had an
answer. And I wish we could stop all of that. But yes, so it's
your Oh my God. You know what I thought
the culture is the culture is like, Oh, if I'm gonna be
flamboyant, then I have to girlfriend act. It's like a
black woman. And they learn that from black men so it's you I've
never seen a flamboyant white man. Maybe maybe the Liberace
maybe well, I mean but that how many years ago was that? So you
don't have anybody like that in pop culture? No,
no, I mean, I have lots of people that I know or friends or
in my circle and and not all gay men like that at all exactly.
But all but that's interesting because you know, I think you
and I are like it's like I don't give a shit whatever whatever
you do is fine. And if you're my buddy and you're Do you want to
be flamboyant fine I laugh along it's it's cool I got no problem
but I'm also not well that's actually changing but as a white
man I haven't had this constant assault on on me since you know
no man and in the home. But we but white guys are starting to
feel this a little bit because we in case you hadn't noticed
you might want to check your email. We're the problem. We're
the patriarchy is the white male who's fucked everything up. So
I'm starting to feel it but it's in the it's, it's more direct.
It's not so subtle. It's not a subtle elimination is basically
one day we'll wake up and decide that you know you white straight
guys, especially if you're old, you have to go away. But what's
happened to the black man is is been sneaky and nasty.
And this is the last point oh my goodness. We've been that for
400 years. And I know that sounds like a cliche but no and
what they realized is that okay, we got them at 75% Single mother
rate. So they're not really an issue anymore. You know last
week he showed all the women that we could show the kids and
you know now we have to go out to the bid target. The white men
you are the canary in my coal mine my friend. And I appreciate
this eight Let's promise to come back and do a do this talk. This
is this is some of the most difficult talk for two men to
have really because just because of how you're perceived is
talking about it i think i think that's somewhere in the back and
must be in the back of your mind. It's because I know that
you don't believe a shit about whatever anybody does. But when
it comes to this kind of assault and I feel you on the 400 years
I feel you that way that having known you because believe me six
months ago I've been talking about Willis so let's promise
we went this time I will tell you with this conversation we
will come back around to good I like it. I like it I get the
sound effect so I can go on to the C Block.
C Block it is
clip 22 sample another news we will take a look at the news
stories that may not be on your radar but they should be police
in Cedar Rapids Michigan arrested a man for allegedly
kidnapping a woman and forcing her to watch all nine hours of
roots telling her it was quote so she could better understand
her racism. Come on, bro. I know it's Black History Month, but
this ain't the way I recommend everybody wants routes at least
once cuz you want to not at gunpoint.
Yeah. Now you and I've talked about routes. I don't know if it
was on the show or before we started the show. It wasn't.
Yeah, it's a it's a what do you call it?
It was Colin Kaepernick episode. No, I'll be right now.
But you call it
a victim trauma, trauma, trauma based overtime and
trauma based entertainment. Yes. Now. I'll just repeat it. When I
was young growing up, I can't remember the exact year but I
was still living with my parents. And I was living in the
Netherlands. And it came on and it was very impactful. And you
know, we would sit every week we'd watch another episode
because another hour another episode another episode. And it
was impactful. That's what I remember. And I don't think
you've even seen the movie. I think you read the book. Right?
Nicely. I've seen it when it came back. Oh, I mean, my my
parents sat me down. So now boy And you're saying Watch this.
Oh, that was so they did they forced you to watch it all
right, right.
All right, because it was like it's a it's like a history
lesson but it's like so incorrect and incomplete. But
mean for 97 years, that's what you get. But this man forced the
white woman to watch roots.
Whereas, you should have forced her to listen to at least 20
episodes of Mo facts that would have helped her right. But no.
But no, no, no, go watch some roots.
So, okay, so let's get into the clip. 23
man named Robert Lee Noy was charged with first degree
harassment and false imprisonment after he kidnapped
a white woman and forced her to watch the nine hour slave
documentary routes so she could better understand racism. That's
it. That's the tweet. According to police reports. When the
woman tried to move, noi threatened to kill her and
spread her body parts starting with her foot across Interstate
380 On the way to Chicago routes, which first aired on
American TV in 1977. follows the struggles of one African
American family told over several generations starting
with Kuta kente when the white woman was asked Does she better
understand racism after being kidnapped and forced to watch
routes? She replied yes after being kidnapped and forced to
watch routes by a black man I totally understand why some
white people hate black people
on you're written all over it and in the foot thing
this is not what a foot and there was this real? I remember
seeing the the headline fly by. But was this real? This was this
thing. This is really,
this is real. These are real. Now.
I understand why white people hate black people.
That's hilarious. I thought that was a funny line.
First of all, for her not to be traumatized, and then to have
comedic relief. That was pretty funny. But when I heard this, my
mind started to do what it does. Oh, roots, captive woman roots,
white woman captive groups. I was like, Ah, got it. America
horror story.
And my number one moment routes or headless routes. This was the
funniest moment from the episode watching Delfines hedges squirm
and she was trying to make it through Queens marathon stubborn
old lady head. And Queenie was hilarious to whenever she was
listening all the movies in her marathon. I thought she was
going to say precious based on the novel push by Sapphire.
Bonus points to any of you guys who can complete Queens movie
marathon successfully.
Did I start this clip too early? No, they've got to tell them
what's happening here.
So let me fill you in American Horror Story. Is this show it
comes from ethics? Yeah,
I never watched it. I know about it never watched it. But Season
Three
was about a witch Coven and Louisiana. And it was racially
charged. You had the black witches in the white which is
literally insane. racially black and white. And one of the black
witches when they resurrected this old white witch that came
from slavery slavery error. So somehow our head gets cut off
and then the black wishes take her head and sit in front of
television and make you watch all these black television
shows. Including roots Hey, sounds like when I heard this
story I was like where did not hear this scenario in
life imitating art I love it. Well
it really does and I wonder if that's where he got the idea
from but to get the beat of just give you context of the scene
and what happened I have the actual scene from American
Horror Story here too.
So we're gonna have ourselves a little film festival you're
gonna watch Mandingo, the color purple and then my personal
favorite backs starring Miss Halle Berry No, no no no
that jungle music
enjoy. Wait a minute. No, no, no, turn it down. Oh Lord. Oh
no. Oh, I wish I was Lana cod. No damn Dan. Wade you land
now I gotta go watch this damn show.
So to give you the visual her hand sitting on
her head singing along is that what's going on
her head? She's a witch. So she has been beheaded but she's not
dead.
Of course not. We all know that's not how you kill a witch.
Hello.
You gotta burn them. Yeah, so they have her head sitting up
here and they forced her to wash all these baps in Mandingo and
Rupes and that she can't take it so just wrap it up let's listen
to the final American horror horror story clip
tight in time bound niggers I didn't see bit of it.

petition and you learn something? stubborn old lady had
you know gotta go
oh
we got to find this guy, man. We got to find out. He was inspired
by the great work of American Horror Story.
When I like I said when I heard this story, I was like, I heard
that scenario somewhere before and it popped in my head.
American Horror Story. And as you heard there, it's about re
education. Oh, yeah, no, totally. And who produces that
crap? Who knows is that I have no I have no idea. I don't even
watch it like that. But I just wanted to see where they are.
Whenever something was like racially charged. I want to see
where it goes. And I was like, oh, okay, this is what this is
about. Black witches get white witches in slave masters and I
Okay, another trauma based in my channel base. There were
retirement. So I didn't really get into like that. But I
remember that scene because it was just so jarring. I was like,

Alright, so we're in the final block, the D block, and it kind
of bleeds over from the C Block.
Growing numbers of African American women in Maryland and
across the nation are leaving traditional church worship, all
of them are in search of something else, a spiritual
belief that connects them to their ancestors, and where they
can feel more empowered to control their own well being.
They have found it in ancient forms of spiritual contact, some
call it witchcraft, a term they accept and embrace. For most of
us, this is how we worship a tradition that predates us all.
This too, is an ancient art of worshipping not to God the
Father, Son and Holy Ghost, but just spirits and deities that
span the oceans and date back to pre slavery days in Africa for
you, in fact, which is, um,
whatever the situation calls for. So if you come to me with
pleasantries, you being respectful, you'll get Glinda,
the Good Witch of the suburbs, but if you come at me with
negativity, and meanness and disrespect, then you will get
Evaline your worst nightmare.
Okay, where's this from?
This is from the Maryland news. Really? Local, the local news in
Maryland. Yes.
So that so these women are leaving the church for a life of
witchcraft? Yes. This is okay. Adams white perspective. I don't
and I think we've talked about this. This is not something
black people are into witchcraft.
Case in point. Marianne Williamson. Yes, we started
talking.
That's right. Yeah. And everything was going great. She
was talking reparations, and then all that crazy stuff
happened in the church and everyone went no, I don't think
so.
And who is she the spiritual advisor for? Oh, Oprah. And who
is on the wall of black women nowadays for a certain segment
of black women. Oh, you see all this come full circle. Mr.
Curry.
Wow. The Coven is on your wall people.
Seriously, I mean, you. You try to you know, no, no, no,
you tricked me. You tricked me. You said there's gonna be a
potluck. But there's a theme here.
you trick me.
Not a theme. It's life. Honestly. I mind these clips.
separately. That's fine. They were just kidding. They were
just sitting in my I have a Clickbank. Wow. Oh, that's
interesting. I'll throw it in there. And as I see linked
everything together and see I just got see today, speaking
about the man making the women watch white woman watch routes,
right? I just got that today. And I was like, Whoa, that links
everything together. And I intentionally meant to do this
but This is how this podcast works. I mean, I love it. I love
it. All right, she's naturally take like that take me to the
witches. Okay, witchcraft too.
They have many names and titles and ranks within their belief
system. They are college educated professional women
who've chosen to believe that there is a true example of
worship that is inclusive of the genders. It connects them they
say to their ancestors and fills a need not found in traditional
worship. But most of them grew up in the church raise question
or questions and my family. In fact, my grandfather was a
preacher and South I
also grew up Christian. I grew up Anglican and Episcopal
Church, the older I got the more disconnect I felt.
I was raised Baptist. My father is a deacon. My mom, Deaconess.
I was in church all the time.
These women are part of a sect. Ely Hola, FFA Oh CMag spiritual
temple. They worship and offer prayers to assure a predominant
deity,
the deity or the Orisha of aesthetics, beauty, sex,
sensuality, they are
growing numbers of African American women who have chosen
for themselves a new life, leaving the church in search of
more meaning in their lives. And yes, it can be called
witchcraft.
Shake in my head.
I'm blown away. Now, I will say this. Witchcraft has always
existed. And the quote unquote, black community, because there's
a thing called routes, not the routes that we just talked
about. But actual, it's kind of like when somebody works a spill
on. Any, like, don't eat people food, they could put a route on
you or don't do this, they could put a route on, you know, like,
oh, okay, right. And what do you know what the etymology is of
root in that context? is like some kind of poison root or?
I would I don't know it I think it's either the way out perceive
it is that you have a tie with the person. So it's kind of like
your route it your route to that part, you know, like the actual
how routes, right?
Right. Right. So and they can voodoo doll you that way. They
can control you and route.
And the common theme and this is very inside baseball is common
amongst some a lot of black men that don't eat or strange woman
spaghetti. And women. Yeah. put two and two together. Oh my
gosh, okay. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Because that was way they can
work a route on you. So I'm not baffled that witchcraft is
existing in our community, when I am baffled by is the openness
of it. Because it's also looked at as a negative like, oh, you
dabbling in the, in the
black and the black stuff? Yeah. Black, right. Yeah. Yeah. So
it was like, Nah, because that was the that was the thing with
Marianne Williamson for me, if you recall, yes. Oh, yeah. I'm
very good talking points, bro. That kind of Illini spirit. And
people yelling at me with that one. Yeah. So So when I heard
this story, I was like, wow, they're actually and if you
notice, they say educated so they're going from new, these
new trying new thought process or new ways of thinking. And now
they're coming back and being more open with it. So well,
okay. Well, what
what what this truly is, of course, is undermining their
religious background, because they all deal they all came from
either mom or my dad was a pastor that was raised in this
church, this church, and it's very clear to point out they
went to college and then now they're witches. What school did
they go to?
What are you planning? On it was like, so cold, but yeah.
So What school did they go to? Is that maybe
any of these liberal school I mean, a lot of these liberal
schools and we're gonna get to why I think the source is really
coming from. Well, let's get into witchcraft. Three
had a recent convention in Baltimore and more than 200
Witches gathered a sisterhood. Their spells are for good, not
for evil. In this ritual, the women are preparing an offering
to shoot on behalf of a woman in California who's looking for a
mate. The ALMA Thai dish is sweetened with honey believed to
be a favorite of a schoon prayers are sent over the
offering and for the woman in need. Unfortunate is offered to
issue the male counterpart of a schoon and placed in a secret
place beneath the stairs with is found at home. Using shells they
ask the spirit if she is pleased. For shells are tossed
to the floor to land up to land down, bounce, the gift is
accepted, she accepts it. So traditions may seem odd to most
a mystery to some complex and multi layered. These daughters
in the moon always have a shoen women powerful determined and
understanding say there is nothing to fear. They are here,
and they will be here for the foreseeable future. Yes, there
are witches among them. This is
something that our ancestors did. And all we're doing is
tapping into it. So that we can become our best selves
individually and collectively.
Okay, how old are these women?
Made? Just the by looks of it. early to mid 30s
and 40s into they still live with their parents. Are they
married? Are they all single? From
the tail of it? They're successful educated women.
Right, but I'm looking for the family situation. Are they
married? They have kids? Are they single?
They didn't really give all that background. Okay. Interesting.
And what is this about our ancestors our ancestors used to
do this really?
Well. That was one of the main themes in the show of American
Horror Story. This is our original religion. You seen a
skeleton key? You saying a life of what a life of Secret Life of
Bees. That was a witch COVID The Color Purple had witchcraft.
Yeah.
This thing is been here at just under the surface. But now we're
starting to see these different schools of thought. Surface
do this. This could be like some club and Oprah is the head of it
somehow.
Hello. She was a big pusher of the sacred.
Oh, man. Yes. Yes. Oh, my god. That was that was the huge book
club push. Yeah.
Yeah. Which is basically, you know, you can manifest you know,
anything with the thought the power of the mind. Yes. Yeah. So
wish, Mike, I'm just saying is not strange that people have
branched off to new religions. But these women came out of the
church. And now they're headed into the other direction. You
got to ask where is this coming from?
Yeah. So, yes. Masking? Yes. Yeah.
So how practicing witchcraft helped.
As a black woman, trauma has touched so many parts of my
life, I first started to deepen my practice, when I was coming
out of an especially traumatic situation, in the aftermath of
trauma, especially this really intimate trauma, you kind of
feel like your whole world has exploded, that you don't have a
way for understanding who you are, or how you relate to the
world around you. So my magical practice my witchcraft was a way
of reorganizing the world around me really understanding who I
was and how I could exist in the world. When I was kind of in the
in the deepest pits of depression and struggling with
anxiety, even though I knew that the right thing to do would be
to get out of bed and take a shower, I just didn't feel like
I deserved those things. But by giving myself a ritual that
transformed into I have to get up and take a shower, because
there is a part of me that is holy, and that holy part
deserves to be taken care of. So while talk therapy was very
helpful to me, it was actually magic and ritualistic practice
that helped me get to my therapists office in the first
place, whether it's acute trauma, or if it's the kind of
trauma that exists when you exist in a body that society
doesn't accept or doesn't value. I have found witchcraft very
helpful, because it's a practice that really centers my personal
value. And in a world that keeps telling me that I don't have
value. That's a really radical,
radical acts.
Wow. Okay. So she's preaching of some common trauma or trauma
that the women have
the victimization mentality. So what they're trying to do is
take control back over their life because they feel like
they've been victims, just taken away from what she said, You
know, I had no control over my life, but magic from where the
way I perceive it is lets you believe that you're controlling
things. You're in control, you can do a spell or you can do a
ritual that lets you push you back into control. Now,
I'll say I'm a big fan of manifesting I don't think like
the secret is, you know, the way to go. I'm all about personal
development. So it's probably better than drugs to go to go
this route. So yeah, I can't, I'm not sure how I've made a
video visual would have helped. What did she look like she did.
She also didn't feel right. And her body or body was rejected.
What did when she she
was she was an attractive, young, young, young lady. So, my
point is this. I don't care what you believe that's your first,
you're gonna find out about me. Whatever you're into whatever
floats your boat, you like it? I love it. What I'm pointing out
is you have this mass exodus of people leaving traditions. What
is the root cause behind that? That's that's what I'm getting
into when you see some something going on a group of people going
one way, Where's this coming from? Is this being steered from
the top down? Is this being introduced to pop culture? And
people started looking at looking into it? I mean, you saw
this with Harry Potter. So when Harry Potter came out, magic
became very popular. Yes. Before the AMA was for the unpopular,
or for lack of better term for the nerds. Yeah, who, who see
themselves as not having control over their life. And they need
something to give them, you know, power strength. So maybe
these women are feeling the same way they feel like they're
victims. And they need to have some way of controlling their
lives. And I mean, that's just the way the way I take away from
them.
Right. But it's, it's it's an interesting observation that
they apparently don't find this in the church anymore.
This is true. That is true. That is true. And that's the part I
can't figure out where what went wrong? Or maybe the church is
seen as the patriarchy because if you listen, my dad was a
pastor. My dad was a deacon.
Yeah, could be could be
so so that might be just another rejection of the picture but
but it's definitely a trend I otherwise it wouldn't be. I
mean, I think these stories crop up from time to time, but I can
recall a story of women being witches who are all black, I
don't I don't recall that.
Well, the story do crop up, and witches also showed up, which is
planning to cast a spell. If you'd like
to participate in the ritual that's been making the rounds
online members from the coven of the Raven Moon state, this is
all you're going to need, but they tell me the ritual they're
doing here. It's going to be a little bit different, which is
from the coven of the Raven moons they they're doing their
part to make sure America doesn't end up watching its own
horror story.
So it is the end all squash all of all negativity, and that's a
beautiful thing.
At midnight. covens from around the world will be lending their
energy to cast a spell on President Trump. Oh, high
priestess Amy Jean Goosen says witches from her Coven will be
using a ritual that will help keep negativity out of the
office.
Basically what the spell does is it prevents the person in
question from being able to draw energy from any negative
sources, and it prevents the person in question from being
able to project an energy that is going to have negative or
hurtful outcome on other people.
And while the effects may not be immediate,
sometimes things can happen soon as the next day. Incidentally,
sometimes three months from now,
members of this Coven say the binding spell will make room for
more positive energy to flow into the White House.
We do actually have governors who are Trump supporters, they
would not have a need to feel binding him with a hindrance
because what it's going to stop him from doing isn't anything
they should want him to do anyway.
These governors say it's just a matter of time before we see
what's in the cards,
good health and prosperity and abundance for everybody and that
I think that it is all there to be had for all of us. And all
hail covenant the Raven loon bless Aveda witches.
In Flint, Marina Parnell, NBC 25 News.
Well, it worked.
Good job.
The president said no negativity is needed. He wasn't impeached.
He's, it looks like he'll probably get reelected economy's
good. I appreciate it, which is
and in this in this news story, they actually told you the
ingredients what to get you need something orange and
the whole rundown something orange Oh, that's
seriously, that was one of the things you need something orange
and they listed all the other ingredients so that we're
promoting the casting of spells through the media. And this is
not the first time President Trump has had beef with the
witches
today. Since for President Trump from all things, Russia to
impeachment, a terrible witch hunt, the greatest witch I have,
which happens every week. But there's a group that's not
amused the witches of Washington. This is one of their
meetings and dash keys tells us when the witches like you see
here are gathered, President Trump does come up.
Sure. Not only does he come up, but there are people in the
community that take action, you know, through magic through
spellwork to try to change the circumstances. Witchcraft,
not so much like this. Are you going to be trick or treating?
But through rituals? Like this spells? Sure. Do they still
happen? Yeah, you do.
Yeah. Tell me about that. Yeah. So a lot of ways spellwork
magic, these are all akin to prayer. And a lot of ways
worth noting. Dash is a witch, the term doesn't just refer to
women anymore. As for the President's use of the term
witch hunt, Jash says when you look at the past, it's simply
absurd. Historically, witch
hunts were performed by the powerful toward the marginalize
to have the president of the United States claiming to be the
target of a witch hunt feels like it's just wrong. In
Northwest
Mike Valaria w USA. Na.
They're seeing it all wrong.
No, no, they they were casting spells, putting orange peels out
there doing whatever. And he became a witch. And then he was
hunted as a witch and I don't see the problem. And they've
nailed it. They've turned the president into a male witch.
Well,
okay, I guess no, no.
No, Tom, for that. To go all the way in that when a not enough
there? Well, there are many but yeah. So I don't know where this
week's thing came up. And it really came out the woodworks
with casting spells on presidents after Hillary lost.
And some people have said Hillary is literally a well with
what was her right hand man in Arkansas? What is his name? He
was with the whole Clinton Kartell or whatever it used to
be. He was her he was her or Roger Stone. Her version of
Roger Stone. I can't remember. He was used to be on Alex Jones
all the time. But yeah, she smelled like sulfur and
whatever. But I thought great, but
it's all right. I got you. i
Yeah, the 2016 which is became came out of the woodworks. So
because
Yeah. Okay, these are disturbing trends. We must keep our eyes on
because before you know it, I got nothing against witches. By
the way. Ladies. Don't need no spells
ladies only.
That's right. That's right. Dash, dash dash. My goodness, do
I do the sound effect here? Yeah.
So this last clip is a random clip. And it really doesn't fit
in anywhere. But it covers a theme that we first talked about
on a show maybe on the first couple of episodes. And that was
no man the house. And no man the house, basically is taking the
father out and letting another entity become the father.
His real daddy, thank you for putting me on. I mean, you have
the definition of a real father because when your kids is
hungry, they have food stamps. Yeah, we shop at Walmart. Yeah,
we shop at Publix. We shop at Winn Dixie when your kids need
shelter. Yes, you have housing. And you also have section eight
for a lot of us. And when our kids fall get hurt or sick, they
have Medicaid. Yes, we go to the ER, we go to the walk in clinic
and we also can make a doctor's appointment. I get their
prescriptions with no hesitation. Now, that's not the
definition of a real father making sure your kids have full
shelter in health care. I don't know what it is. Thank you for
being my kids, daddy. And thank you for putting me on.
Wow. Well, that's that's the result that guess it was the
desired result. Is this a recent clip?
Yes, this is this year. Thank you government for being the
father of my kids.
Well, yeah, I would be depressed. I would be depressed
about this. If I didn't know that. You're You're a great dad.
You got four kids, God bless them. So that gives me a lot, a
lot of hope. Because this is kind of depressing.
And all my friends in this this is where we're not a monolith
because all my friends have Kids in their great fathers. So it's
that's not the case not everybody well I'm just showing
this mentality of no man house, it lives on people questioning
me on it and that's why I play that clip because it lives on
and it's only getting stronger
and more facts is going to shut down for this week please
remember to support the show with some value at mo fund
me.com mov fund me.com
And as I always say pay attention to everything and the
truth will reveal itself
thank you so much my great time talking next week. I sign you
