Happy Valentine's Day. Everyone say,

Welcome to laughing on one more time, y'all. We're gonna get started right now. I hope you guys had a great weekend. The super Bowl. This was super Bowl number fifty six, So if you don't know the history of the Super Bowls, the super Bowl started in nine, so this is the fifty six
super Bowl. This was a great The game was great, but the halftime show was phenomenal and let me tell you why because it was a hip hop and if you are if you are a fan of hip hop and you know hip hop from the nineties, Dr Durry and Snoop Dogg were incredible. Now, Kendrick Lamar is relatively new, but Mary's been around a long time as well, and eminem as well. And then fifty came out with Birthday It goes shorty each he brought dropped that in two
thousand and three. But can't we just talk about fifty was the surprise monkey rich that they threw y'all through a heavy that wasn't a monkey wrench, that was a gorilla wrench because fifty fat ass. Oh but the beat, that beat still get you going. You could be in a bad mood as soon as you had done. Thunt done, shunt ghost showty everybody here, Bob. You could be mad at your mama, madage your kids, manage your spout, your head,
just bob. So it was a great show overall. Mary killed, of course with her outfit, and woo woo, y'all got married too excited. Miss Mary had said after it was over, Mirror's like I'm done and just laid out like the hell with it. I'm done. It's over. The coolest man on the planet, there's only two. That would be Snoop Dogg and Samuel L. Jackson. Snoop was so cool when
he was doing the the Crip walk. And and you know, using people who are tall or awkward, Snooper, smooth like silk Snooper, Snooper, old players, Snoop, one of them kind of talk to you while you doing some things. Y'all missed that that one over y'all here, I'm sorry, hello everyone. I see y'all coming on, and I see y'all. I'm on the other phone and and comments are very so I'm seeing y'all. I'm trying to pay attention to kinda calls. Knda to me, I need to make more eye contact
with the camera, Hi, Kendall. So yeah, until we bring Lord, because Lorn can be reading new questions, I think she's on the business call. I want to know what you guys thought about the Super But what was your favorite Super Bowl Have time performance? Because let me hit you with man. First of all, y'all know, I'm a die hard Diana ross fan, so of course Rosses was my favorite, not because she put on the best show, but she had a helicopter come and she wanted to take me behind.
She said, oh, my ride is here, and jumped on the helicopter and flew away from the super Bowl. That was the most ganxious should I ever saying in my life. Let me just call it out. I love Michael Jackson's performances. I love Janet Jackson and justin Timulate. You know, even though they had the mistake, but I still love the performance. I love mcdonna's performance. But Prince killed it. Prince Prince, Prince Diana Ross Prince and Michael Jackson probably my favorite three.
But last night, yeah, Beyonce was great, but I wish you Beyonce would have been by herself. Even though I thought Bruno Mars was good, really good. I would like to have saying Beyonce do it all by herself with Destiny's child, nobody else. Um, but that's my opinion. We all see something different, we all like something different. I do want to say I want to just give a big hats off and and and a shout out to Eminem who showed the world I don't care what you think.
Right is right and wrong is wrong, and you don't tell me what to do. Because they had asked for rumor has it that they had asked emminem not to take a knee. Eminem took a knee in solidarity standing with Kylin Klin Kaepernick, and on the same arena that because the NFL blacklisted Colin Kaepernick, they kicked him out of football. So the slap in the face was that Eminem was on the biggest night of football. The Super Bowl is the biggest night of football throughout the year.
He took a knee in solidarity for for Colin Kaepernick, and y'all a lot of y'all missed that in times. Oh he was just trying to get brownie points. Now, No, he wasn't. The Underground Railroad would not have worked with only black people. We could not even look white people in the faith. You couldn't ride a horse, you couldn't carry a gun. It was so many things that you didn't. Well, here we go. So thank you Eminem for standing your ground.
And I haven't heard any backlash about him taking a knee. I ain't heard nobody black banning him. He ain't been suspended from his job. He ain't had no backlash. Let me tell y'all something. All black folks need one white friend, because if they don't use their white privilege, I'm gonna abuse the hell out of it. I take my white friend with me when I go to a car, run the house. All that. You know, when they see you
with somebody caucasion, it's just like who's who's please? He don't need bro He surely don't need no brownie points because Eminem, gangster T t J. And come and talk to me, talk to my Valentine's rod was my Valentine Rose was in the way. Thank you, Thank you kindle. Hi Jen, are you loving my hair? It's only calmed in the front. If I turned around back was it looks like it's mad at good guy? No, I'm just choking, Hi Jan. How did you enjoy How was your weekend?
My weekend was fine? It really was fine. How did you I know you're big football because your son play The boy plays football. So how did you enjoy the game? Halftime, all of it? I really really enjoyed the game. It was I was happy to see new people in the biggest game of the year, you know what I mean? Um? And I was really was that a dig at Tom Brady thing? It would be pretty predictable, you know what
I mean? See uh teams be shook up and see talent that you don't pay attention to because there's it's like a monopoly. So it was really a It was a good game of some bad calls, but that y'all can call me better, Betty. Um oh, so you were a Bengal You were a Bengals fan last night? Parents obviously one of their boys is a good home bread from St. Louis. Um and so uh, no, his spokes and I liked the story with John H. Barrow, I
really really do. But it was okay. I didn't have a dog in the race for real, for real, you know what I mean. But halftime was explosive, exciting, all the above. Loved it, loved it, loved it. Now, Jenn, let me ask you, because you've been around a long time like me, Yeah, you've seen plenty of Super Bowls. A halftime which was your when name your top three, your favorite top three including last night, and there last night was one of them. Okay, then last night, Uh,
Diana Ross. And it's just because she's my legend, and I think, uh, Prince, oh, Prince killy see and you know what's so funny, j And thank you for saying it and expressing it just like that, that she's my legend. Because some of these younger people who don't understand how we love the Ana Ross because she's been so fabulous and so glamorous her entire career. And so when they try to say when I said she when she jumped on the helicopter that so thanks to and y'all like, what, well,
Lady Gaga did it. Lady Gaga copied right, she got the idea from the legend herself. Okay, from the living legend herself. Be Rows, so understand that you need to know your history, especially when you're gonna come after me to about Ross because I'm not gonna play with you at all. Millenniums, although I love them and gen Zs, they have to realize that they're not authentic. They're doing the same thing over, you know, like a lot of playing in life. You know, it just recycles, you know
what I mean? You think you so, but those are those are definitely my three. And I tried would be and very angry at j jay Z and being very angry at jay Z because he was putting on Dr Drake, But they climbed. They just climbed, I mean right, because a lot of you might not know that jay Z actually produced the halftime show That's night, right, and they said they cost ten million dollars. Let's see it that because what y'all don't see, y'all see the talent, y'all
see them dancing. Y'all have no idea what goes on behind the scenes with sound and lighting. And I only understand that because I'm here working with Kendall for a year and all the audio and everything that has to be perfect before y'all even see me. And I ain't never ready on time, no way. So yeah, you know. And and jay Z got paid, you know what I mean?
And they were he got paid or got the contract when the NFL was still experiencing some early flak about how they were not promoting and pushing and people were feel as I am, very upset about Colon and how he came in. He didn't say he was going to change the world, but he did give us a halftime performance. How did you feel, jeh, that's a great point. How did you feel about Colin? I mean about Eminem taking a knee in solidarity for Colin Kaepernick in the NFL.
Eminem is one of my go to hardcore rappers that I will forever love, who has constantly been disqualified because he's been because he is white. So it ain't like he needed on brownie points to me. That's the way he failed, you know what. You know, Eminem just a
bad boy, you know, any a badass. Yes, I'm gonna put him on my next list with you know, because Ryan Mommy Ryan Reynolds, So he right like he like number two and you know on that list, I'm not gonna say anything about Ryan because I see when your finger go if you will ask me out so but don't you say noting about my right girl. I will push that X. But you know, rumor has it that him and Blake Lively his marriage might be in a
little trouble. It's a little shaky over there. I just want him to know that when he becomes a free guid and I played his dead Pool and one of one of the one of your fans just said that that was rumor that the NFL didn't ask Eminem not to take a knee, but he still would have because he is a bad way and he stands on what he believes. He never he has never watered down who he is where he's come from. So if he did, well, um, I would have liked to see him be my surprise
rather than fifty fifty uh gallons of beef. Uh you're gonna leave it. Just you know, ifity said clap back, jail, he might clap back because I have some kidding aggressions on how he always talking about suskas you know what I mean. It makes me say, but that's like, that's the topic for another hanging his fat ass upside down. He ain't fifty cent, He's seven dollars and ninety five and fat ass. He was thick and it was all
stopped right here. It just stopped right up and he wanted to put on that tank top but bursting through the middle, you know. So get your paper, get your paper. Fifty cent. And they said, well, I didn't have him on the show. We didn't have him on itself because Mary J. Blind is on the show, and Mary J. Bladg is the start of one of his show's power that's called you Wash My Hand, I'm gonna watch yours. Yeah, yeah,
y'all miss that. It's hardcoming. It's hard supporting fifty because he you know what, you just don't know when he's gonna lash out, you know what I mean speaking of lashing out looks speechiing speaking of last Now, did you see what they boo Kanye West when they put him on the monitor and honest, yeah, in front of his children. Yeah, you know what. But that's something that and I hate to laugh at. That's something him and his therapists are
gonna have to figure out. What's gonna do, you know, that that might help him get someplace, and and said, because he needs to sit down and he needs to be quiet. I'm not gonna feel nothing for you that every time you come up with a statement for justice, it comes at the expensive black folks. So they can't have out Kanye, don't. I got a suggestion for Kanye. He don't need one therapist, he needs like three of them real talking, especially now than him and Antonio Um.
I can't think of Himno's last name. Since they're working on a project together, they need to house a bunch of third person the ain't nothing wrong with getting some help, y'all. It's nothing wrong with taking your medicine self care, you know. But I think part of Kanye's thing is he's so arrogant. He wants us to look at him like a musical genius, and he wants to go down in history as being a genius. But he's he's overplayd with his craziness. You know,
we're he gonna go down in history. I don't know if jee is gonna be the word that they're gonna attach to his ass, gonna go out in history. You know, he wants us to believe, uh that everything he does. He's such a creative genius that is sparked by like the talent. And I know it's just you saying crazy stuff. Uh, Kanye, you acting over camp? I mean, and you know what this might make hug you somewhere for a minute too. But um, you know she knew what she was doing
when she was getting Pet Davidson. Yeah. Do you think that relationship kicked off Jane when she did Saturday Laugh? Yeah? Uh huh yeah, y'all remember she recently did said in the laugh last she and was great at hosting it. Speaking of hosting, we're gonna talk about they picked the host for the Oscars. It wasn't me, y'all, but I'm gonna tell you who it was. They picked three hops, wander Psychs, Regina Hall, and Amy Schumer. Y'all just let
that marinade on y'all for a minute. Wander Psychs, Regina Hall, and Amy Schumer. Okay, you know I'm not gonna comment. I'm not Jan. Thank you? Are you still in jail? I am still in jail. Very unprofessional. I thank you for the Jan clan saying, you know, to meet things like I'm innocent because they know I'm innocent, nothing wrong, but we know, we know we I know you too, you damn show ain't innocent, but I know you, but I didn't but I didn't do anything. Let's say that,
so you know. They still got me on the lock and key. Let's stay hard. So well, that's okay. We're still here for you, Jane. Thank you for coming on because Lauren Lauren is not here today, so I'm gonna bring flame mints on so y'all can help me with this show. Thank you, Jane. Y'all followed the real t t Jan whenever she get out of jail, because the real tc Jan is in the real ag jail because as you played too much. Uh oh, she's on here.
Wait there she is Miss America. Yeah, so yeah. They just named the host you guys for the this year's Oscars. It's three hosts, three females. Oh my god, you look beautiful. You don't look like you slip in the airport all night for hour for me. Hi, Lauren, say hello to Kindle. He said, Hey, Lauren, Lauren, did you see their name? The three hosts for the Oscars. I'm furious that my name is not on that list. But not this year. Anyway, I didn't you know, I didn't have service. I was
in an airport. Um, I did not see that. No, but you said it's Regina Hall. Wand that's likes and Amy Schumer. Oh um, your face, don't your face says it all? At work? What happened? It's random, It's definitely random. But I will say Regina Hall is a good host. So and I told I told my friend that, I said, what you have you ever seen? Home? Some of my mother said, she has a big personality. Yeah, she killed thet awards and was funny as hell. She was great.
So and she's actually very very sweet. You know, I met her in person. I did a couple of events with her. She's a sweetheart. So I'm happy for her, to say the least. But I think Wandon Amy's kind of random. But okay, well here's the kick of my friends said with flame, have you given up? I said, well, no, because God brought this house to me, and then they told me no, and then two months later, not even two months later, they brought it back. You never know
what the plan is. I'm just sitting back, biting my time and gonna keep looking good because if they called the night before the Oscars. A bitch is ready, you already I got I'm going to garage. I'm gonna going to the the basement. I got plenty dresses. Yeah, exactly know. But I'm be curious to watch it. I'm, you know, to see how they work together as a dynamic trio. I guess, so that'll be interesting. They could have hired me as a trio he she we that's three people ship. Yeah,
would and there was only one check. I'm not surprised on the Reginal Hall front, but yeah, and we wanted because his friends were wanted because of Tiffany. So I mean, and you know, they probably have worked together. But when they're gonna be good and he's gonna be good too, you know this. I'm I'm gonna watch it. And I thought they were going to use in there first of all, they lived, they needed let me and in their hosts. And there could be my daughter. Have you all looked
at me when I was younger? Look at her now? I looked like the day and when she was young, I really did look like her. When I was young. She looks like a very young me. Now she prettier than me. But when she had a body I head she was striving that baby. I wanted to killed her for body, but but she looks like me. I could play her her mom or her her stepmom. I was waiting. I was waiting for you to say something smart door. I gotta tell you, Euphoria, I am an average before
you watcher. I didn't watch Sunday's episode because, like I said, I was trapped in New York. But she needs to get at least a couple of Emmys for that and something because she's acting her ass off. Oh my god. And they show so much male nudity in there. There's a lot of boy booties and penises. Yeah, look, yeah, look yeah, but underwhelming. But I mean, I don't I don't know so well. They might be growers and not showers. A lot of men are growers, are not showers. A
lot of me and that are shows. That's the same size as it always is. It just get hard, but a lot of men that are growers. It started off a little, but then it like somebody gave me some fertilizer. Little turtles. So anyway, since we're on the topic of Nellie, okay, now what what happened or did you see the Nellie video. I didn't. I didn't come out little fists had one little feet, Oh little fist, oh little fist, oh little feet. Oh you should change your name. You should change your
name from little fist. Just put make something big. Just call yourself big feest. Some need to be big because that ain't but some need to be big because that ain't. Oh oh it was. Oh wait, hold on two seconds. I think this is delp to call me by my bag. I okay, they lost Lawrence bag. Yeah, that's why she ain't here, because they own the bullshit. Miss Delta. I love Miss Delta, but you won't be losing bad y'all. See the Little Fist video. Look a little mushroom. I
saw it. Child grow as a dangerous jock saying for yeah, I've seen it. We ain't gonna make it a sex talk, but oh I've seen it. I see it, I see it, I seed it. Hello, Cassie, I'm talking to flamemans, to them. If you're not a regular flameman, I'm not bringing you in because I can't trust that. I don't know you come on playing with yourself and all that stupid ship. HI can't see my darling. I know you watched the game with your big kids. Did you did your team win?
Did your team win? I was for the Bengals. Oh got for to push the eggs on you now send Cinderella was a whole let's start right there. I agree with tch Jan and that it was great to see other people in the building, you know, and fighting it out. Was a real good game. I watched it with my boys. He wanted to watch it, so we chilled and we watched it. Hi everybody but the halftime show talk about it. The halftime show. Yeah, that right there. That was it.
Don't understand, well, you have to be a hip hop fan still. I've seen some comments on people who times that Nicki Minaj is not hip hop. Baby, Nicki Minaj is not hip hop. Oh and you know, there was a rumor that there was gonna bring Tupac out in a hologram. So when he started playing, I ain't bad it. So I was like, oh, shoot, is he coming out? And then he didn't bring a lot of all those white people was gonna pack their bags and leave. They was scared of ship at the white folks. You know,
you can't do that the white folks. You came playing damn black hologram white old. They already think it's ghosts. The only thing is the sound was low. But Bobby I was talking about the earlier and she said, you can go back on YouTube and rewatching and it's powerful. So it was powerful to me. All of what they showed, like the Gangsters when they was dancing and everyone, like with fifty Cow was like all he doing. Oh I
thought that. I thought the choreography for Kendrick Lamar with all the guys in black, with the blind hair and the blind bears. Oh, I just thought that that looked incredible, especially when they did the aerial view when they were on top of them. It was so synchronized. And so I'm like, okay, thee they didn't. That was a lot of work, a lot of rehearsal, but that was great. So Cassie named must your top three because you were football fanatic, name me your top three super Bowls? Your
top three? Um, well, you know I gotta always love what you What do you mean super Bowls like the halftime shows? I mean I mean they halftime shows. This for me was all time for me, this was all time because this took me back to my my days, you know, back to the streets. But I was I've seen the beyond the one one. Um uh Bruno mars bron.
I thought that one was good. But I'm listening to you talk about Diana Ross and I haven't been able to I haven't had a chance to go back on YouTube and watch you said she she left in a helicopter. To me, that would be amazing. Uh baby, she had a song called take Me Higher that baby face rope and the helicopter comes. She's my right is here, and the helicopter came down and this whole jumped on the
on the helicopter, strapped her in and took off. Take me girl, every cissy and me jumped out of my body and ran through my house neck he Oh my god, it was a beautiful thing. This was a beautiful thing because this is this is for me all the way, Like even my kids like, oh yeah, that's mama right there. So for me, this was a beautiful thing. Can we talk about how good Dr Dre looked? Though? Dr Dre
looked good? Did he look good? Thick ass? Oh? Snoop is Snoop and Samuel L. Jackson are the coolest niggers on the planet. Let me just see how I see and when I say the word, the N word of anybody on the find and push the eggs because I see what the funk? I see the coolest niggas on the planet, baby, and everything they say rotation less. So I listened to that all the time. It ain't just that all the time. So I was I was like, Cassie, how did you feel about um um eminem taking a knee?
Did you did you understand the message or did you just okay? And I was like, somebody gonna need And he took a knee, and I understood it because he, like you said in solidarity, it's like and hear me when I tell you, and y'all hear me very clearly. And if you think this is being racist, I don't give a damn anybody else on that stage, Mary included if they would have taken a knee. The news will
read very differently this morning, about absolutely very differently. Hey, first, lady, prayers to past to erskine y'all make sense of present erskine Head is his name replaced the surgery this morning. He is out of surgery successfully, So now the hard works are now you gotta start walking them dries walk the hell out of him too. Thank you can't see it's Valentine's that look. I got my red and white look. I was like, I'm celebrating Valentine's that, even though I
don't have a Valentine. Nobody wanted me. Oh, I got a Valentine about me, roses and everything, and she gave me some roses. I gave her some uh huh, Yeah, Mary, Mary looked beautiful. Mary and married and gained a couple of pounds. Did you see them fists? And I said, they, boy, what don't they think? I said, come on, big Mary, come on, big Mary. Mary. I wanted a little bit more Frankie Marry. I wanted a little bit more frank and Mary. But I thought you and you know cancer.
When she first started, I'm looking at her face, and as an entertainer, you you have to understand that there's one thing to be nervous, but to think that there are billion eyes watching you, a billion I'm sure she was overwhelmed. Like see not trying not to think about that. I would have just been performing for whoever was right close to me. Everybody else would have just got a piece of it, but you have to perform for everybody.
It was, it was, it was magnificent. I love what she said about no I'm not getting paid for this, but to the fact I'm gonna make so much more money, and I wish a lot of entertainers will understand that. And I hate to say any names, but this is kind of what you have to do in Hollywood. Sometimes you got to think long term as opposed to big money right now, and think long money can constantly and consistently. She did that. I ain't gonna mention the name on
the person. I was gonna say, I'm gonna keep my damn mouth ship. I love that playing live music, Yeah, that right is used back in the day that there wasn't just all this mixing on computer, so that the performance in itself with music and all the choreography and just they just brought it all the way back to the nineties and it was. But I'm gonna tell you what I would have been upset about if I would have paid twenty five thousand dollars for a ticket to
go to the coach. You know they had tickets, there were twenty five thou already down to five thousand. If I had paid and I had a front row seat, but I was behind the stage and I couldn't see the performance because you know, if you were sitting on the other side, you had to look at the big screen, you had to look at the money. Girl, I would ask for my money back, put me on the other I want to see the show in real time. It was you know a lot of famous people that was live.
They would live during the half type of warmis so you got to see. If you're following someone, you got to see that too. On I g always lit. Oh. I saw lebron in the audience. I saw j Lo and Ben, I saw Brandy. I've seen a lot of people in the audience facts McQueen. Those that don't know the music or artists are the ones that had issues. Someone Tho's gonna have an issue, but but it was fired. It was well, if you're hip hop nineties, baby, you fucking loved it. So if you're not, then you didn't.
Because if you think Nicki Minaji is hip hop, yeah, you need to go back to school, baby, go back to the drawing boards. Everybody over the age of thirty fat, thirty eight to forty. Yeah, all our kids looked at us like, what the cent's your old as a? Because I'm up in there, get me a piece. I mean, I was Frank and Mary with me, Mary and and he was like, Dad, please sit down. I was like, girl, let me get my life. I was out of breath like Mary at the end, and I passed out too.
But I laid on the couch. She fell on the ground. Thank you Cassie for joining us. We appreciate. We're gonna get some politics in a minute. I swear I'm trying to avoid it though as long as I can. Y'all know I told you all I'm over the politics. Good it's my baby back. She is back. I want my baby back, baby back, baby back, And there she is in l A. Thank God. I think we'll give you some extra points. I know you're gonna write. See what y'all don't know about Lauren. Her follow up is a
nightmare baby deal. Say y'all about to get a care and email. Y'all better get ready for it. Mail and another type of phone call. So but anyway, my bag, Oh y'all say, ice cu ice C wouldn't been able to come because ice Cube is not vaccinated, well not even that it's just ice Cube in that wholele Domicran situation wouldn't have been good, so no one worked out. Do you think that's what it was. I think that's
definitely a part of it. I think in some ways ice Cube kind of got blacklisted for what he said, especially while like Kamala Harris, so that wasn't needed. But I watched the super Bowl. Um actually when I came home it was live. It was oh God, And I know of you was home. You could have got me a ticket. I don't know why you went home, because you know you could. I wouldn't. First of all, I wouldn't never went down there to that traffic greed. I
already know what the parking was like over there. Yeah, that's that your neighborhood. Whether the super Bowl was okay, yeah no listen, but the performance was Kendrick was definitely my favorite part. I got it. Kend one can only he was Oh he was. Somebody times said, oh that's all Kelly. I say that it's not r Kelly. No. And I think like a Pitzer Prize too, like he's just a genius and it was just it was beautiful. So and he writes his own lyrics Han Lauren. Yeah,
well that's a story some of his own lyrics. But he also has other people, right friends. Yeah, baby, did you see Mary that Mary thick? I said, oh, come on, big Mary, Mary stick big. No, not that it looked great, It was steak. Mary looked thick. Mary looked great. I thought she looked regular like she looked good. Oh no, no, no, Mary looked good. But the guys did get a little meaty. But she wasn't the biggest person on the show. The biggest person on the show was hanging upside down. Good
guy fifty looked like eight dollars girl fifty fantasy. Let me don't talk too bad about FI ship back universe. So don't say that now. Oh no, no, no, no, no, I'm not reading because you know, I don't care if I'm mad if I here in the club, I'm mad at I could be mad at Easy, and you know I gets mad at Easy if I hear in the club I'm sitting here Bruton in the club. Come on, I'm still mad. But that's funny, go shorty, it's you cannot not like that, baby. I know some old white
folks like that. Some old white Now I ain't talk about regular What I'm talking about Moses like three hundred, three thousand years old. They still like that. That's it was a great show. It was a great Dr Dre. Let me say this. I know y'all got a lot of scandy if I got their own feelings about Dr Dre, But I thought Dr Dre looked fantastic. And when he said and played that piano, I was like, come on, Dre. I love when they showcase all of their talents. We're
a talented group of people. So people don't seem to realize. And I just think that because the WOL was in l A. Like even the fact that the Rams ran out to like Nipsey Hustle last time that I checked, Like overall, it was just like we really paid like homage to the city. And I think that's what probably was most impactful for me. So anybody wants to talk ship and it was like the super Bowl was trash. Really you just don't understand hip hop or l A culture,
And that's fine. Just don't sound ignorant. Just shut the fun up because you just don't know. You know, the only thing that was missing for me, what is Michel coming out saying you say that you love me girl. That would have turned to play up something. Why ouse d when should they could have brought yo yo yo. L A has a lot of female rappersess from here
from the era. Well, the game was upset to like people were kind of making comments like why didn't y'all have the game come out instead of fifty like, and I mean it's it's a valid comment to make you know, let me tell you something, business move. I get that what he's saying, but business because Mary is on Power fifty produces power. You watch my back, I'm going to watch yours. Of course, that's definitely what it was at
the end of the day. But I mean the comments that were made revalid though, you know what I mean. So the game is from l A and you know he was a party. He took over g unit like he did, so it kind of seemed a little shady and I can understand that. So speaking of Inglewood and l A, Lawrence, your girl and my girl I've never met. I think you met it before us. A Ray got the key to the city in Inglewood this past weekend, and the first one to get it in a hundred
and fourteen years. Wow, she was the first person to get the key to the city of Inglewood. So absolutely, I love and I love Insecure, And y'all don't understand insecute. Some of y'all ain't lived in real life because Insecure was real. Yeah no, it was very very real for sure. So um, but yeah, I congrats to her. And you know, she still has got a lot of stuff going on.
She has radio, she's got different projects like rap shit and a couple of different things like I shouldn't say a couple, I should say a myriad of different things that she's doing. So, um, she's just a talent with that megawatte smile. Good god, she had the big smile. Um, Lauren, I wanted you to, Um, I know, you gotta do your Black history mom. I'm gonna let you find out which Black History moment you're doing when you come home. But we were supposed to talk about a Whoopie is back.
We were talking about Whoopee is bad, you know, Lauren, So let me let me shake it up a little bit. So Eminem took the knee, and I know a lot of people saying, oh, he just did that. I don't think he did it for brownie points. Eminem has proven himself over the years time and time again that I'm going to do it my way, and if you don't like it, I don't know what to tell you. Mother
had you, mother loved you. Y'all know the rest. But when he took that knee's out there, because I always talked about the underground railroad would not have worked with just black people. We couldn't look you in the eyes, we couldn't ride a horse, we couldn't carry a weapon, so many things that we couldn't do, so we had to have good white people to help us to do so.
I think it's still good white people out there. And I love the fact that Eminem was like, I'm gonna do what I want to do and there will be no backlash, And as of yet, there has been no backlash, no negative comments. But if anybody else that was on that show last night would have taken a knee in the same capacity, the news would have read very differently this morning about the halftime show it would have took it.
They would have taken away the shine of what the greatness that they did last night because they would have just focused on a black person taking a knee. Don't blame us for using the race card when that's all you have always used against us is the fact that
we're black. So don't blame us when we'll be used it back on you to y'all can't handle that, um, And I make my point is Whoopee saying something out of turn or that it took out a turn, because I completely agree that I heard what Whoopie said and they did not allow her chance to explain herself. They just went after her and she lost it. She couldn't get a chance to explain it, but she was suspended. Imagine that Whoopie had taken a knee at the Super Bowl.
Suspended would be the least of her worries. Well, I'm adding another story since we're talking about racial bias. I don't know if you've seen to that. Um. Shikari Richardson is back on you know, her Twitter fingers, but it's actually valid. There was a Russian UM athlete that is particuarly. She tested positive for drugs and they said it was fine.
She was still allowed to compete. So if we want to talk about UB standards, we got three different stories, so we can address here between eminem whoopee, and this other ger she's not a generat. I don't know what her name is. I don't know what her name is. But I saw the story this morning, Lauren, and they said that I saw them go, and they said that they allowed her to go because she took the test two months ago and they were just getting the results.
So what if she took the COVID test two months ago and she was COVID positive and y'all just getting the test results, So who does that fall on? She should have been removed, y'all removing Hikari Richards for a joint that she smoked what a day or two before?
A girl. Yeah, that's interesting because this conflicting stories. Supposedly, the test came back positive a week after um, she took it, and then they still like they knew about it in December and then she had the whole you know, committee meeting or whatever, and they just acquitted her and said it wasn't a problem. So this story is just coming out now, But this whole ordeal and her being
you know, exonerated, happened back in December. So clearly the story is not right because there's different things being written. But if we're gonna talk about hypocrisy and double standards and our face, they keep remandering us in our face, which is why they gave Snoop such a hard time
after he acquired death rol records. You know, they tried to keep Snoop off the super Bowl for it was rumored that they was gonna try to pull him off the Super Bowl because of some lady coming out from ten years ago with some sexual harassment charge or some kind of charge on him from ten years ago because
he acquired deathro records. Every time a black man tried to acquire something, and I ain't given Bill Cosby a pass, but every time a black man tried to acquire something major and what was the other Byron Allen, they came up. They never hi up with those sexual harassment charges, but they tried to find everything else. Sit the way by Ray. Now they don't want us to own it because they were always be in control. I just think it's interesting too, though,
and I guess I don't. I don't want to sound insensitive when I say this, but it's like it's always interesting when you to your point, when we start acclinbering things or getting a little more more notoriety. There's always like some sexual conning out, And I don't want to make it seem like I'm not encouraging women to speak up if they've experienced this trauma. We definitely should, but sometimes the time hasn't looking at people sideways like well
why now? Why now? Because this is like you know, name is and the media all of the studden you want to, you know, talk about this, but anyway, I don't know. Sometimes it's very strange. Yeah, and I'm telling whoever that lady is, girl, you better stay away from me. Ay, I love snow Dog. He I love snow Dog, and I'm a loyal person. I would like yours. Well from the show, it wouldn't have been good, Like there would have been so much like public outrage. You know, su
Dog is led like he's long Beach. Well he's long Beach, but he's a part of, you know, the culture. You can't take him out of the super Bowl, Like, oh lord, I know what I want to ask you. So Chris Cuomo is still suing seeing them for sixty million dollars, they're trying to say that they're not gonna give up the money. Do you think Chris gonna get that money. Did not remember I said that to you when I
when he was leaving quietly, there was no problems. I literally said, I said, he's going to file a civil suit against CNN. And that's exactly what he did there his money. Yeahcause CNN ain't gonna want that bad publicity. And he's a lawyer and he ain't gonna And here Cuomo, he ain't gonna stop. Y'all understand, y'all, don't keep this brother out too. He's not gonna stop. They have very deep pockets. And I said that I knew this was
gonna happen. That's why he left the way that we did, because he was like, Okay, I want to fire me, y'all gonna have to pay me. Wow, we're living in some strange times. Glory HOGI. It's just always some craziness going on. It keeps the day interesting to tell you that, that's for sure. Well, you really look good on you do not look like you step in the airport overnight. I don't thank you so much because you look better now that you do when you come to work. Sometimes
I'm gonna come offended by man. At least now you look good Lauren. So what's the west I announcements? Oh, Sherry Shepherd, the Ladies and Young will be opening and hosting for me on the eighteenth and the nineteenth of March at Caroline. So you have not gotten your tickets. You probably want to get the tickets. She's gonna make the announce on Monday when she's hosting next week. She's gonna make the mounse every day that she's hosting Wendy
Williams next week. You probably want to get your tickets. Cush, are you coming? Are you coming? I'm going to State, Oh speaking of the Man and Music Festival event, and I booked Deborah Cox and Jesse j So how tell Deer Cox? I said, Hey girl, how did you get here? That's how I said? How did she get there? On the bus? A train? Do Talent and production in Florida. So I'll be close to you so I can send you positive vibes. The girl you go to Hell, y'all. See,
you have to put up with y'all. Siould have to put up with. I don't call pitive energy. Oh yeah, he was sitting right here next to me. You need to blame Delta shoot calling. I ain't gon blame Delta. I got good. They still got you home safe. So even though you was a little delay, you home safe. I'm good. And you flew home on a Delta one in a pod girl, knock at all? I surely did. And I slept in that bed with my pillow on
my blanket like a little baby. Oh, and the flight attendant kept giving me prosecco, so you know, I had a little wine sleep. So I slept very well. That might be why I'm a little up now. So oh, is that what it is? Where's my girl? Miss car Oh? She's a daycare. She loved one a daycare now therapy therapy bay. I'll pick her so long I did. That's why are you going to Ohio? Right to another cold state? Yes, but you're going to the Allstar Tivity is playing in
the All Star Game? Uh huh. Well, you know they're not having like their normal events and stuff like that because of COVID, and they're like trying to keep the players confined. So like it's more like the players wives and the moms. They're like trying to have more of the philanthropic events. It's not really the players this time, happy Happy, Valentine's Day? Do you have a Valentine's for today? Um, I have some flowers in my dining room table with
the balloons, so I got something. Yeah, day, ain't know what with you now, don't get it twisted. And we're not we're not. We're not having a long show today. Long. I want you to hear us with a black history mom. I'm not doing politics because let me tell what I'm upset about. I watched Nancy pull and y'all know what Nancy is, my baby, y'all know I love my Nancy belttle. But I watched her yesterday morning on with UM with George Stephanopolis, and uh, I don't think that Nancy. I
don't think that Nancy does not know. It's not informed. But I think that Nancy's hands are tied and she can't help Biden make um let me see it right, because you know you're gonna say something right, they be ready to cancel you and ship. Um. I don't think that she has the power to push Biden to do what needs to be done not only for African American people for but for Americans right now with this whole
Philipbuster thing. When they were talking about it. They're so entrenched with this whole Ukraine a Russian invasion that you're not focusing on what's happening here. And that's not saying that I don't feel no sympathy for what's happened, because Poodin is not playing checkers with y'all. He is playing chess pool to say, I'm gonna do what I wanna do, And he' was having conversations with pood all the time. You have a conversation with Poda. My conspiracy is that
pood is on the phone the other phone Trump. Well, what I'll say is this, I think we've got too many and I hate to say this, but it's the truth. We've got too many old white people in these positions of power now, and they've honestly become so removed as to what priorities are important, Like they're prioritizing things that aren't necessarily gonna better the American people. And like not to say that Ukraine and Putin isn't a big deal, and obviously is like we all know that he's crazy,
you know, and he's a dictator. But and I know it's the national security thing, so that may be above you know, my knowledge of what that making sist of. But I just think on an American level, they don't have the priority straight of what's actually important because they're just so removed, you know, they're thinking like, oh, we should prioritize this, we should prioritize that, and it's like, but what's actually gonna help the people that voted for you?
They're removed, you know what I mean? And I think that's honestly what we're facing now at this time. So and I don't necessarily think it's gonna get better either. Like I saw Joe Biden said that he's gonna rerun again, or supposed he's gonna rerun, and Kamala is gonna be his running mate. I mean, if it comes down between him and Abronda Santists or Donald Trump implant, I'm obviously gonna vote for Jilligan because I think he's the lesser of the two. But it is I'm gonna pack my ship.
Let me just see it public. I'm uk, I'm on the way. That's that's what we're up against at this point. So it's unfortunate, but I think that's just the reality rama politics at this point. So I did see that Joe went in and UM killed the leader of Isis two ago. Joe didn't do it, he says, some folks on Hels ain't went nowhere. Well, it's so different from when Barack Obama went in and killed Yeah. I said the same thing about him. You ain't win nowhere either,
implemented the strategy. I know. I'm just good lord, you know, I know, the lady said Jim. But we're gonna do. But I'm gonna do my black history moment and talk about Fanny lou Hammer. If you don't know who Fanny lu Hammer was, I love Fanny lou Haimer. She was from Florida, what she was from Mississippi, and she was born in nineteen seventeen. She was the twentieth child of lou Ella and James Lee towns and sharecroppers. She was
a civil rights leader. She lost. They'd beat her so bad in jail one time that she had a blood clot, lost sight in one of her eyes. She and she was unapologetic, she was unafraid, she was unabashed. Um and she was not recognized, and and they kept her then foot on Fanny lou Hammer's neck. And when I tell it, I said, kept her foot on her neck. It's kind of like they didn't physically well, they did some physical things to her, but they ostracized us to what she
couldn't work. It was hard for her to take care of her family. Blacklist to her. That's happening now and for some of the same reasons the hour. It is different now because then they could come to your house in the middle of the night and take you away like em matel Now they just get in office and become a congressman or statesman or Secretary of States and take everything away. Is that funked up to say, Lauren, No, it's very accurate, because you know they let it coming problematic.
That was this morning. That was his morning. I was problematic this morning. Kept touching me, Lauren. I need I need a new dancer, you know who. I want you to give me some information about Katherine Dunham because the only reason I know Catherine Dunna's name because we had a dance studio in Chicago. They get Katherine Dunham Theater and I went there a couple of times, so it's I was um at academy. We had this like song. We had to learn about her. But Katherine Dunham was
born in nineteen nineteen o nine. Her father was French Canadian and her mother was Black. Um. But she actually started the Dunham technique. You know, she went down into the Caribbean and studied different types of dance and she created her own technique. Was done and I studied it. It's actually extremely hard. Um. But she's a pioneer in um the dance world for four So she started the
Dunham technique. It's still practiced to this day. And um, she was beautiful because say the least she was beautiful. They featured her in the Alvin Ale documentary just a little snippe over did I watched it on Delta play. I was on Delta one on a Delta one and in my pod first class thank you hf yes. Um. Yeah. But so she's a mix of French, Canadian and Black and um, just a pioneer and dance and created her own technique. There's not many that can say that. You know,
we've got the Dunham technique. We've got you know, Horton. You know, we've got only a handful. So she was by talent and to all my newbies is joining us here on laughing. And the reason I'm asking Lauren about dancers is because Lauren is a technically trained professional dance who've been taking dance and she was nine months because Miss Marsha was not playing with her. She should get your as the dance class. But so Lauren camp really did. And I'm not telling you all what I didn't see.
We was rehearsing for the HF campaign one time and she was trying to tell Earth a combination. She said, I don't remember Earth. Look, I didn't know Lauren dance. She got a tall ash, but the table started kicking and foot I was like, oh this happening dance, Oh my god, and the legs didn't stop there. I think she kicked Jesus because he looked down. I'm telling you for real, so listen, I missed my partner today at work. I'm glad you're back. When you come back for next week,
what did you come home next week? I'm basically by weekly for the next four weeks, so I have three more trips. So if I like the end of March, I should be done at least for a month. I'm hoping because y'all not canceling my uh my co host flight next Sunday, please, So she had a black as let them keep playing with me. They're gonna keep running me some day and miles because I don't who add some of those sky Mans to my Delta sky Mans account? Yeah, all of that? Can you do that? I don't know
if you can do that. I know you can do that between airlines if you want to. You can't even transfer section at the most, so you're probably not. Ladies and gentlemen, you can find my partner where.

Um, we're gonna start uploading stuff to the Instagram page and small recaps and things

She did not talk about she was real coy though. If y'all caught the the look, she said, well, this is a show about points of views, and sometimes it goes a little she was real slick with it. But yeah, thank you whoopee, thank you for not opening it up and stop feeding it. It's over.
