Flame. Hello, Flame Man's welcome to laugh and lawn. Hello, I'm your host, Flame and roll along with my partner here Lauren Hogan and next to me. If we're gonna bring in a second, we are here with triple, our producer and our cameraman can do up in the lounge, up in the lab, but we are I like it.

The really were in the garage. I like it. And we're going to have an exciting show today. We got some things to talk. But y'll see my new real ear rings as a gift yesterday. But I'm from my show in Sance in San Mateo. I'll tell you about it in a minute. We're gonna just want you all to come on in, come out, come on in the room. We got conversations to talk about, and we know you

guys want to weigh in today. We don't have a special guest, but we do have the Flame man's and that is as special as you can get because nobody means more to us on this show than you all. So yeah, look at y'all, like Lauren glasses. Don't she looks smart? Okay, I'm just joking with your baby. You know her mama fights you baby, that mama, that mama, tough baby. Bring on, Nick, Lorien. Yes, indeed, you doing alright, doing all right. I like that gray jacket. Oh you

saw the glasses and shot you. Yeah, showed today and Flame was like here and I said, all you don't like my regular glasses. Okay, so we'll be different today. Have a funny I have a funny glasses story, Lauren. I didn't wear glasses all my life and then all of a sudden, I hit forty and it was like somebody had flipped a switch I could. I was like, whoa,

what just happened? And welcome, welcome forty. Well not even that, It's just like me looking at a computer screen all the time, like I have my glasses are blue ray reflectors because my eyes were starting to her. So I don't think it's aged. I just think it's technology. At this point, it's ruining our senses. So we just got to protect ourselves. But there's no lenses in these I'm just flame. Just wanted me to look like her today, so I wanted her to look smart. You know what,

look smart? Okay, okay, right of course can say that. No one else can talk bad about you and Lauren. We might get to that story later that I played no games about my people because my motto is my bitches where my collars. Because I went this, I love that. I love that, man. I ask you about this weekend. Though I lost my virginity this weekend, it was wonderful. So I have been booked in Samteo with Ms Claire Mack, who has a bakery business there, a wonderful woman since

but then the pandemic hid and we had hiccups. We couldn't go, so she flew me in yesterday morning. Oh my god, the treatment of how special that that's this woman and everybody in her circle made me feel I felt like a star. I felt like I was part of the family. I was so welcome in her home, so welcome with her family. It was. It was refreshing. It was one of the best bookings I've had in years and years and years, simply because this lady pulled

no punches. She sent me home with five packs of right applewood bacon, about five cans of really uh some love lounge treats. Uh. These beautiful rings I got as a gift. I got perfume. And there's so many deep flamemtks that showed up. Vieno Diva showed up Leslie by the baby whose birthday is today, Happy Birthday. Leslie showed up, acquired so many new flamemts to come on to watch us here on, laugh and learn, and to just follow the page. This was a room we were in the

backyard of her home. They had a stage. It was set up beautifully. There were so many millionaires, movies and shakers, black white and indifferent that were there. And I changed minds, I changed thought processes, I changed hearts. I changed a lot of things. And they told me that they sent me some of the most beautiful messages. Lauren been reading them. It was an old white lady who had survived forty four years of domestic violence said that because of my courageousness,

you know, she was able to do something. I'm telling you it was. It was overwhelming. Thank you, Claire Mac. Please follow Claire Mac, Please subscribe to her, Please support her business. She makes all these cakes and her babies. She got the refrigerators. Her kitchen is bigger than my house. She got like four major refrigerators. All of these yea, and the cakes were delicious. But she tried to feed me before the show. I'm I'm double black. You never

feed the bears. That's why the saying said the zoo, do not feed the bears. I'll be grizzly, But to to Sa Matal and everyone, and then her neighbors and her friends, Anita and Arnold let me stay in their home. It was two doors away. I got dressed in at home. Me and miss Anita said and talked the entire time I was putting my makeup on. Just wonderful people, just beautiful spirits and hearts, no judgment, great time. We had a great show and we quired new fans and thank

you guys. It was I can't even tell you. And Ms Claire, let me tell you about Claire Mack. There's a picture of us here on Instagram. She's a black lady with short gray hair, eighty four years old. She looks fifty, no crack, no wrinkles, She could touch her toes, she could kick almost to the top of her head, she could almost do a split eighty four. There are no more excuses there, I asked. I said, Ms Claire, what is the secret? How do you maintain your youth?

Ms Claire told me she's been married to her husband sixty eight years and when he gets on her goddamn nerves, she goes and gets her hotel room for three days because nothing will affect her peace. She is unapologized about who she is, the life that she lives, and if you cross her own, she will stop you then in your track. I said, Oh, so I'm gonna stay young looking, because you know that's my motel right there. I don't know about checking out my house for three days. I'm

gonna stay at home. You can leave. But it was it was a wonderful experience if it was great for me, and it reaffirmed that I was put on this earth for a purpose. So thank you Ms Claire Man everyone in Semintel for just rolling out the red carpet. Shout out to everybody in Samitel of Flame. I'm gonna ask you if I think it's or Lauren help me here, isn't it Maya who said that people may not remember what you say, but they remember how you make them feel. Yeah, right, yeah,

so yeah, so Flame, clearly that's what the impact was. Yeah, and Diva, you say, I'm wearing my jacket, Beno, diva problem And if I got so many gift shows, I got perfume, ear rings, beautiful handwritten letters, so many Flame that's came out. D C is gonna be unbelievable. I promise you, d C will be unbelievable. So I'm wearing my jacket, vinod Eva, see I'm showing a lot of titts, but I'm wearing my jacket. They can't see it in alive, They're gonn see it in the video. Saturday. That's okay.

You know, this is another time to remind everyone because we do get notes all the time, like, hey, Flame, you're not in the frame, Lauren, I can't see you. You guys, we do that so that you all can engage with us on Monday's. But the actual show you

can see everything. The flame is where you can see Lauren and her fullness and whoever may be in the guests of the studio when the video actually uploads on at midnight on Friday night, right, Lauren, Yeah, Well lately it hasn't been doing that because I've been on the road and you know, WiFi doesn't like me, so it's been like a Sunday thing. So just but they get the idea, you get you get the video before the next week, so you know, it is what it is.

But you know, we all got different jobs we're doing. So how has it. Did you went to Shottown to see Mother Rose? I did, indeed, Flame, You know, you and I just had to talk about how, you know, as relatives get older and we we can find time to do everything else, we had to find time to do the things that are also very important to us. Um So I said, you know, because I am in Arkansas, a place I God just works in some aim in serious ways. You know that it was never my intention

to come to Little Rock, Arkansas. This has been a blessing in so many different ways. And the fact that I'm like an hour flight. I'm an hour flight from Chicago. Uh you literally, you know American United they all do that NonStop to Chicago. So it's uh, it's it's it's effortless for me to hop on a plane now and go see her like every couple of months or so. So yeah, and we literally just hung out and catch

up and laugh, you know. You know, Uh, it's always just been my mother and me, so oh we can give a look or don't even have to say anything. There's so much that's just non verbal, you know, and it's just and we just had a good time. That's because Rosetta is a cancer like me, whose birthday, her birthday is the first right my mother? Wow, how do you remember that I don't forget ship. I'm like an elephant. I'm ship like an elephant, and I don't forget ship. And when you do me wrong, hit me. When I

tell you I don't forget ship. She don't mean that definitely. Remember you understand that cancer is rude because it's cancer season and you stay in your lane. You and Miss Rosetta will always get along because we run ship cancers. Do you like cancers? Run ship you June cancer? You' all cry? Baby? Is how is your week going? Because you win in Vegas? Did you win? Somebody listen it was. It's been a rough two weeks. I'm not even gonna lie, it's been My other drop has been kicking my ass,

like just transparently it has been. UM. We had a last minute press event on homelessness and housing on Friday, and then I had to get on a plane that night to go to Vegas because we had an activation UM an honor of national HIV testing, which was this past Sunday. UM. So we had an activation on Saturday, and then I had to come back to l A because yesterday UM, at one of our sites called carl Bean, we actually did an unveiling of the official Black Aids Monument.

Yes So we did an unveiling of the official Black Aids Monument of Los Angeles yesterday at UM carl Bean House with UM in the Meantime, which is a men's group predominantly, you know, to support gay black men. So we had k T l A and ABC seven came out, so it was It's been an action packed field week. UM, a lot of advocacy and initiatives going on. Very grateful for the work that I'm doing, but it's very tiring.

I love what you said about the active about the gay black men because that's taking me straight to the topic number one. I was not able to watch the BET Awards last night because I was working in San Francisco and Sam Mateo. But baby, the room, the internet is lit up and everybody is feeling very different feelings about little nas X openly kissing another man on b E T on the BT Awards during his performance. I've been being asked all they how do I feel about it?

How do y'all feel about it? Where? Here's my thing? Y'all knew he was gay, here's my he expressed his his that was his art. Madonna kissed Britney Spears open mouth on Live. Y'all ain't saying ship. I'm just saying, if we're gonna do it, we're gonna we're gonna have to do it all the way I think though, and we know this. I think that there's um, there's a standard that allows UM because I think heteros fetishized women kissing women. I think that that still falls within the

hetero norm. I don't know that, Uh, the country is comfortable with the idea of a not only male on male affection, but definitely men of color kissing others. There it is right there. That's that's friend too far because if it had been two black women like that Madonna and Britney, it would have been a whole bunch of controversy. Y'all had a fit when Jenna showed part of her titty.

She didn't even show the whole damn titty. I I would just show Well, I think I think part of it too is that, um, I guess maybe it's the extent of the kiss because like Madonna and Brittany, it wasn't like a full on, like sloped down like it was a kiss. Yes, but it wasn't like I know it was. But I think what people are saying the issue is with a little naz X situation is it was just a full blown slot. No different from when Cardi B and you know, Megan the Stallion performed at

the Grammys. You know they got, however, many complaints. You know, when they performed Walk Together, did Megan get Cardi pregnant? Because Cardi pregnant said that did that? So I mean, I think it's just I think it got the kids got a little too vulgar. And that's more so what the issue is, not negating what you're saying that because I think too, you know, there's still a huge stigma around homosexuality and people actually seeing it, um, you know,

in real time. So I think that, you know, are people taking it a bit too far in terms of the outrage, absolutely, um, But I think it's just they were saying, like BT in some ways is supposed to be a family show, you know, and they and I think some people I said it's supposed to be. I didn't say it is. I think in conceptually it's supposed to be more of a family show. So I think doing such a kiss that was so vulgar for everybody to see was the issue, is what my takeaway is

from what I'm seeing. So and I'll tell you Lauren um way before your time, but flame will remember this. I remember the world was literally on fire when Madonna, I forget the actor's name, but she had a black Jesus. That wasn't bad enough. She had the nerve to it was flame. Do you remember that? And then she and the like, who is this white girl? What was like a virgin or like a prayer? Like a prayer, like

a prayer, and she kisses him. Wait, wait, but not only is this a white girl, but it's a white girl with a black Jesus. The white girl with a black Jesus who kisses black Jesus PEPSI could not drop her fast enough. Let's give kud Madonna, who has went against the grain from day one and live her life apologetically. So that was what I would say. It was keeping her young looking, but she ain't that younger ye anyway?

And I love Madonna door Madonna. So Madonna has broken barriers and years before people have given her her propms for that. I don't understand what the big deal is about the little nos ex kissing, because, like Lauren said, BT was supposed to be a family show. BT ain't been a BT Awards ain't been a family show since the second year of conception because everybody is naked on a damn show. Everybody in Codnegro just said something that's right in Coodnegro. I forgot that that was the part

running through a field of burning crosses. Remember that, Like my DAUGHTERA really just broke everything and we're like, what is she Doingdonna say, I don't give it to Madonna like black men though, So she got a little black young thing right now, she'd be riding through you know, cities and bicycles and stuff. She's living her best life. So that's sixty year old. That's sixty some of yo. Can't still got some fire too of it. I do think though that I want to say kudos a little

nos X because he's living his truth. He's living his life, you know, as he's you know, deems fit. And I appreciate what he's doing, especially for this younger generation around lgbt Q, because they feel like, you know, there's somebody that they can actually identify with that's in the mainstream, that's you know, understanding to what they're going through in their circumstances. So I appreciate him being unapologetically him in

these spaces and you know, defying societal norms. You know, he started a little bit a month ago with the Jimmy Fallon performance, which I thought was choreographically phenomenal. And now you know he's performing at the BT Awards, and you know it's just living his life soot and is so he was living. He was happy, he was being proud and also too, I want to just say, I'm so happy for Queen Latifa. I love the performance and dedication that they did to her for her last night,

and she got the Lifetime Achievement Award. Um. I actually started watching The Equalizer. It's a great show. Um. I watched the entire season. So I'm also, you know, very happy that she's been giving her flowers too, because she's done a lot, you know, for the culture as well. Can I say something though, I saw some of the clips on Twitter, you know, in between all the point and let me tell you something. I knew I recognized

mc light and I recognize somebody else I just didn't recognize. Look, Kim, baby, let me tell you something. When Luke Kim get to Heaven, she's gonna fly right past Biggie. He gonna be like, she canna be like, what's up? Big? Do I know you? Baby? She didn't change colors, nationalities a color Kim, slow down, careful her dribe and stay like try don't even recognize her. Go back to ninety three and look at Kim and look at her. Now, if it named him wasn't up there,

you wouldn't know who she was. She still turns it out. Yeah, I'll just say this. I just worked with her in April, and she is a sweetheart. She is so sweet. Her daughter came with her. She gives, she's a very she's very serious about her craft, and it was actually refreshing to see. I think, you know, nowadays, we see a lot of these artists that aren't really serious about music. So, you know, being able to work with her and see her work ethic and just how she moves and shakes

was very inspiring. So and she's a sweetheart. But I look him, you know, I know a lot of look him no matter what people see. What what. We also heard that she's generous as an artist, as in sharing with other women like uh mentor did you see that

as well? Did you? Did you? Because Trina was actually there, so Trina opened up for her, and she literally brought Trina up during her set and talked about, you know, her mother and just how she's been a little sister to her and their relationship and it's it was very much so like a powerful black queen's moment um that we had around hip hop for you know, a Florida Aids Walk event. So um, yes, all of that. She's a genuine sweetheart all the way that I know that.

I'm sorry, nigres, come on, I'm sorry. That was my bad. Oh no, my fault. Oh my god, I hate that word. I hate that word. When they ever bet Ever does recognize Little Kim as a legend, I hope that when they do the tribute for Little Kim they use a bunch of trans girls because so many of us do her music, and it's some bad girls out here that

would turn the b ET Awards upside down. I wouldn't have to be the host of b et O. Originally, I'm the first queen of the et Remember I did Coming of You in two thousand and four, and y'all tried to pass me off as a woman. I told you'll let it back, and nobody gonna believe I'm a no damn woman. They just gonna know that I was funny and I was go ahead an say no. I was just gonna transition to one of the topics we

talked about with the Flame Maths. You know, we're talking about apologies and whether or not you are allowed in the age of social media to have an opinion. Because trick Daddy shared his opinion on the Breakfast Club you know, or or shared his opinion earlier and then went back and talked about it. Is he allowed to have an opinion that he says uh isn't necessarily as popular? And are we tired of people apologizing when they have an opinion? What was his apology or here's this, here's my thing

and this is my genuine opinion. I just feel like trick Daddy wanted some attention, so he said something outlandish and he's getting set attention that he was crazy for. That's how I feel because I'm just saying, if you're Beyonce Cancing, I'm sorry, did you listen to listen from dream Girls? Like there's just her catalog is just too wide, too vast for you to make an outlandish statement like that, So like, let me start back, who we come out

trick Daddy? Who? I just feel like it's just I think he just wanted, you know, a couple of moments for some attention and he got it. So you know you don't funk, would that be have? Let me understand that I will talk about lots of people. You do not funk with the behalf. Secondly, personally. Secondly, if he ain't never listened to Beyonce saying resentment, then he really don't know what he was. He's so used here shoot the nigga, she the mama, through the kids out the train,

that ain't singing, player that's not singing. Beyonce can sing wonderfully. And if he ever said his ass down, uh and listen to Beyonce saying it's not worried about what's mainstream and what's popular. Because they blasted that restaurant, you do not Behi, period. His restaurant rating went down, completely down. It plummeted over here, girl, I ain't never got nothing better.

You know, I think I'm your uncle, but not saying that to say like he's You're entitled to your opinion, and you can absolutely state your opinion, but you know, just know the backlash when you your opinion may not be valid. Somebody says she is not the best singer. Who is the best singer? Because you never know, Probably some of the best things you've never heard because they

don't have records. Yeah, I mean in terms of mainstream I think that um Beyonce is probably you know, one of the best, and I think more so too because she gives a fantastic performance. I don't know if you'll ever been to a Beyonce concert. It's a production, Okay. If the fan is not in the right place, that person that was on fan duty is getting fired. Okay. Like her productions, it's it's air tight, you know what

I mean. So, and she gives a performance. But to sit up and say that she can't sing is like, that's a ludicrous statement. Now, you guys want to debate if she's the best, sure we can have that debate. That might be valid, But to say she can't sing is just outlandish. Beyonce is the most marketable artist right now to date. So say what you want to do. Because if Beyonce dropped something right now on impromptu Trigg Daddy, if you put out a free plate of food, uh,

they're not showing up late. I'm just letting you know. They're not showing up. Yeah, we're talking about a couple of things, a couple of things we've done earlier this week. Blame. If you remember last week, people were kind of excited about the fact that the Supreme Court had upheld Obamacare in the Affordable Care Act, and many were all the brains say, oh my god, Amy Coney Barrett, and they're they're amazing, they're doing all these great things. In flame

you said, even then, they're doing their job. They're doing their job. Nation, no praise needed. You were appointed this even if all of us who opposed it, you were still appointed. And we just feel like you did the right thing. But you were doing your job. You don't get kudos for that. That's like a dad saying I'm taking care of my kids. Your kids, your job, your responsibility.

You don't get oh, that falls on. The Supreme Court today said they will not take up a dispute over whether transgener students must be allowed to use restrooms to match their gender identities. UM. So they upheld a They upheld a decision from a lower court allowing a student who identifies UM not by the gender that he was assigned that they were assigned at birth, but to use the bathroom of their now identified gender. So many are seeing this as a celebration for students who don't often have.

I know that we've had this conversation amongst ourselves, but I heard one of the people say something today that really kind of resonated with me. I hadn't thought about that more often than not, children need adults to advocate for them, and that they often don't have that, and that the difference can be made when a child feels as though they're protected and allowed to use a safe space, thus being a bathroom um that identifies with with the

gender that they identify with. So that was it. Let me let me say this, and y'all can get mad. You know, I don't care. That is so unimportant to me. I don't give a damn about no bathroom, right, I do not give a funk about a bathroom. If I got to pee and you in my way, I'm gonna piss on you because what you do is you go to the restroom to handle your business, wash your hands. That should be the biggest issue, because I'm seen plenty of y'all male and female roll about the stall and

roll about the dough, don't wash hands and nothing. That should be the biggest issue. They get all gender bathrooms. They're making a lot of all gender bathrooms at the airport I just traveled yesterday, had all gender bar rooms all over the airport. If you're not comfortable and going to a male or a female bathroom, go to the all gender bathroom. It's one person in there, which will be you. You can lock the door and you can do whatever you need to do in there. That's it.

Stop making a big deal out of it. This is prime month. Transgender have moved in spaces that were unheard of. Now we have a state senator, a doctor, actors, producers, TV stars, all of this, and y'all still talking about a damn bathroom right. You don't go to the bathroom to play cards. You go to the bathroom to smoke on the load or to use the toilet and wash your hands and leave. You're making it a big deal. Then it becomes a big deal. It's not a big

deal to me. Yeah, And I think this is like why I've said to that, you know, flame is an anomaly being of the trans community in a lot of these spaces, because while you know, will say, like, you know, the bathroom right is not what's important. It's like you guys actually going out to vote, you know, the transc community going out to vote is what's important. So that's wife said, I think that you're an anomaly in a lot of these uh space is in terms of, you know,

what the priority is for the transgender community. Um, but I agree. I think that I'm glad to see that in a lot of these spaces like an airports and different things that they're doing, you know, all gender inclusive bathrooms because I feel like it's easier for people. I mean, should I use an all transgender bathroom? I just go where it's available. Hell, I use the men's bathroom if the line and the ladies too long, and the ladies bathroom is always and you know what, that's a great

that's a great question. It was always going through the airport. I know there was a line for the ladies bathroom. What do you think it is that women won't advocate for the same number of facilities that men have? Why? Why do you think even I I took them? Mo? I'm like, I can't believe that women still aren't comfortable speaking up and saying, you know what, I fly, I buy a ticket, I deserve a bathroom. I should not. Women should not have to wait seven nine deep to

go to a bathroom. Does that make sense or is it cultural? You're like, Nick, we don't need we can wait. We don't even think it's that. I just think that men can pee a lot easier than women can. That depends on age you are grabbing. Shoot. You know what I mean, y'all can grab and shoot. Y'all got stalls lined up like you know, a little urinals lined up next to each other. You know, women, we gotta go in, we gotta understand, we gotta pull down. Sometimes we gotta squat,

you know, if the toilet don't look too right. You know, when men have to go, ben have to go. The women can say oh I need to go to bathroom and wait twenty minutes and say oh I still need that type of thing. So yeah, it just takes us. That's why we got, you know, back up. Let me

ask the question, Kendall. Kendall, straight man, Kendall, have you ever we used the women's bathroom and in the public because the lands be so long sometimes and in my personal experience, I'm gonna say this, ladies, y'all gonna be mad at me. The women's bad room are always nastier than the means bad room. Let me just I don't know what the baby always and be. And now A'm talking about just the smell baby if the women's bad from being nasty. So some of you ladies, I can

only be a men's bathroom. Oh my god, Yes, disgusting, disgusting. Let me tell you something. When I go to a public bathroom, and I because I'm a I'm a sitter and peer unless I'm in a herby. When I tell you I've had the toilet seat with toilet, it feels like it's a pillow top mattress on top of I put so much. I don't think that. I don't think that it's a problem using either bathroom because you're not going in there to molest anybody. See, they've they've made

all of this a big issue. When you have to use the bathroom, you go in the restroom to use the restroom, wash your hands and leave. Ain't no man going in there being perverted over no kids and all that because you don't let your First of all, you don't let your child go to the restroom at a certain age by them damn self. If they're not at least ten years old or let me years old, you're you're usually in there with them and standing outside the store.

Even as a dad, I would go in with no makeup on when my daughters were young and we would go to a public restarooms. I'm standing in the restaroom outside of the stall because I'm not standing outside the door. And if you are uncomfortable, then bit you wait till we're done, and then when I leave out, then you can come in. Because not only me and touch and

molest children women touching moless children. Well, let's go ahead and make a shift because you know, we talked about a couple of things that are top of line in the news, um, and one of them lighter is the heat wave that is hitting the West coast. We have friends and neighbors in Portland and Washington State who are experiencing heat at levels they've never experienced before. So the flame that's who are tuning in from out there. I understand you all are in triple digits and you're not

used to that. We want you all to stay safe and find those cooling stations if you need them. Uh yeah, and we but according to the lace person that was in the White House, global warming isn't real. Listen, it was a hundred and ten degrees in Las Vegas on Saturday. I sweat in places I never swept before. I did. I did it. It was very hot. Miss come get your dough. It was very hot. So that is so funny. Well, let's go ahead and talk about one hundred and fifty

one still missing. The beach building has turned into what authorities and all saying is a mass grave, and questions are starting to mount about payoffs maybe for permits, and neighbors are now fearing for safeties and buildings that are near that area. This may turn out to be because they have not found the one hundred and fifty one who are missing. Um, this could turn out to be the largest mass casualty of American lives and from a

single event since nine eleven. Before we go any further, can I just say this part right here, we had no hand in that. Let me let me, let me explain it to y'all. Y'all going to be salty with lame Monroe. We had no hand in that because they don't hire us for construction jobs. And when I say us, I'm talking about the blacks. If they've put that list out of who put that building together, if it was

two blacks, on there, I would be shocked. It's usually one black woman that holds the slow sign on the outside. They don't hire us to do that, so we had nothing to do that. Whoever is in control of that, with that rebar and the brick and them contracts, they need to answer is handed to them and they need to sue from the top down. If I was living in one of them buildings alone, the board walker wherever that is, I would move out immediately because that is

tragic and scary. I'm gonna let y'all to talk you all away in because I'm at the end. I'm gonna close this out destroying Patrick. If you don't know who Patrick is, he's the starfish from spongeby our SquarePants. You all know him in Florida as the governor that run the Santis. I'm coming for your ass running y'all have this right now. No, I mean, I just think that

this is going to turn into a huge lawsuit. Um mainly I think with the city because I saw today reports have come out that, um, you know, there was a report that was delivered that said that the actual structure was not foundationally sound. They said that there was you know, damage to the structure and then not three years later, the structure collapses. So you know, I've the mayor has, you know, said things, The Vice mayor was on today talking about it, and it's just at this

point there was so much negligence around it. There's no thing you can really say to, you know, provide any type of solace to these families that have loved ones missing. And you still can't find a hundred and fifty one people. And I can't imagine, and I hate to say this, I can't imagine anyone is still alive being in that rubble for the past four days without oxygen, without water.

There's there's just no way. And the way that you guys went about even trying to, you know, retrieve people's horrible. You started, you know flame, you know I talked about this. You started at the bottom. You were starting to dig at the rubble from the bottom, which is the stupidest thing imaginable, because if you pull from the bottle, all you're gonna do is sink the rest of the rubble down. You're just gonna keep, you know, exacerbating the situation. So

I first see lawsuits coming mainly towards the city. You know, the building owners shore. But all they're gonna do is deflect to the city because they're gonna say, well, you guys approved these plans for the structure and everything else. So the city and Rohn de Santis is probably gonna have to come up with, you know, a few million dollars to compensate these families for all of the negligence that was around on the struct Sure, Nick, you think death toll has risen to ten one fifty one still

on accounted for um. I think that immediately after this happened, you know, I went into reporter mode, and I knew what many of my colleagues were probably doing, which was digging for permits to find out who signed off. When we learned over the weekend that in that back in ten it said, hey, you've got some structural issues here

that could cost as much as nine million dollars. Well, if if you're part of a homeowners association, you're sitting there thinking I don't want to pay this, You don't I don't think you also know the severity of that structural damage. If someone says to you, hey, you've got structural damage in your home, Nick, Okay, well is it something I need to take care of right now, or can I still do this trip to Aruba next month? You know, I don't think people understood the seriousness or

the danger in that place. We also now know that people who lived in that building saw water regularly in the basement, they saw water in the garage and and but it's my understanding too that those who live in South Florida, particularly those with beach views, are used to seeing water and standing water in places. So a lot of it was dismissed. And now people are second guessing. But no one expected this to happen because they're also saying that forty years is not considered an old building.

Um that it was, it passed inspection at that time, that whatever was allowed then was the standard at that time. I just think that where like Laurence said, I think we're gonna see quite a few lawsuits come. I think people want accountability, UM, and I don't know that. UM, we're going to find many more people alive after this. I think this now becomes a recovery effort for for what remains. And I think people knew, though, Nick, I

just think that they didn't care. That's what I honestly feel that way it's just I mean to your point in terms of, you know, they had to pay all of this money to get the building fixed, they just didn't care at that point. They didn't care to fix it. And I think that's what it's coming down to. That's what I mean when I say there's such a negligence. It's just that it was like, okay, because I'm also curre used to see the demographic the folks that we're

living in this building. Notice it's a lot of elderly people and people that are Latino and people of color, and y'all didn't care. The irresponsibility falls to me on the governor. And I'm gonna say this ten times over Florida. If Rhonda Santis have not showed y'all who he is through the pandemic and now through this, I don't know what the hell y'all weigh known to have him removed as the governor of Florida. He is a detriment to the state. He is a detriment to your lives, and

he is a detriment to this country. And I'm sorry because he's he's such a lost person falling behind the Trump He is ridiculously an idiot and I cannot believe that y'all voted for this man. To put this man off. This man does not care about the state of Florida. He does not care about people that is not in his immediate circle. And I'm saying this telling nigger to call me because I'm ready for him, because he dumb as a box of rocks, and I'll tell him to

his face. Uh. And I just think that Florida needs to band together and to have him removed this governor. Y'all mad at our governor for going to have a lunch. Ain't no buildings collapse in in California? True? Well, that's true. I don't know. I I think, to be fair, I don't know that we can put this on Rohn de Santis because they blamed Obama for everything. Turn about his fair play, they blamed They blamed Obama because I pooted this morning. That ain't his fault. God damn, they blamed

Obama for everything. Since you blame that president for everything, I'm blaming y'all government for anything and everything negative that happens in the state of Florida. Well, I think the blame part that can be placed on the Santists is that he tried to stop rescuers coming into help with

the cranes and different things. It took so long for these cranes to come in and lift the rubble to actually help, and you know, in expediting, you know, the recovery effort of those that still may have been alive. He initially did block the assistants coming in. So I think that's where the blame can Uh, was it Joe Biden? President?

Joe Biden overrode his bullishit? Yeah, So I think in that regard we can definitely blame the governor and say you didn't care about these people, because why would you block assistance coming in to help, Because clearly y'all weren't. Your recovery effort sucked. Let's just call a spade a spade. It did. Y'all didn't even know how to actually rescue people. You were pulling rubble from the bottom like that was

gonna do something. And the cranes came in yesterday, which yesterday was day four or five, three or four, So you you wait four days to bring cranze. And I understand that there was rain and there was a fight, but I've seen y'all do construction in the rain. I've seen him with cranes doing construction in the rain. I'm not understanding why he his lack of responsibility that it took four days for craneing. Just what Lawrence said. You don't start from the bottom and move the remubble rubble.

You started to top to remove the rubber so you can find body. There are babies up under there. There are old people up under there who, like you said, been up under there for four fat days. No water can't go to the restroom, and people of our age, seasoned people will will take in. I'm about to die. But imagine a kid or a baby looking for their mom or looking for that dad, whoever is taking care

of them, and they sucked. They can't do anything. Leg broke, back, broke arm bro The scientists took none of that unto accountability. I'm telling you right now, I'm not letting him get a pass on this. I see your comments, Mark, Fuck the scientists. I said it on this platform. Fuck the scents. I don't like people who don't care about people. This has nothing to do with race. He didn't care about people.

It's babies up under their dying right now, holding on to their laugh breath because they don't know, they don't understand that their children, their babies. It's fucked up and it's sad all the way around, but it's fucked up that the person in the charge and at the top did not move faster to have this debris move to save more lives, because a lot of those people under their fucked up to say, are probably already deceased because

they've been waiting five days to be rescued. Well, we had major news last week also UM, since the last time we recorded, and that was the sentencing of George Floyd's killer, UM Derek Chauvin UH Derek Shelvin, who was sentence to twenty two and a half years in federal prison. UM. He was convicted as we know, on the death of a George Floyd, and there's been a lot of debate over whether or not people feel like, one, if that's

justice and two if that's enough time. Well, I'll say all the flame as will want to sound awful on this one, So yeah, I mean I'll say this. I think justice would be as if George Floyd was still alive. First and foremost, that is justice. Do I like the amount of time that Derek Chauvin has received. Absolutely. I think the maximum in this case specifically was he could

get up to thirty years. There's still a federal civil rights case pending where, you know, if convicted in that space, it's just going to add on to his already pre existing sentence of these twenty two and a half years. So I do think that it's a it's a start, you know what I mean. Um, I think in a lot of ways, we haven't gotten justice for a lot of the black men and um women that have been killed by the police. So I think that, and I said this before on this platform, is that they were

going to make Derek Chauvin an example. They had to because of the global outrage around this. It's not like the Rodney King situation. There was global protests and outrage about this, so Derek Chauvin had to be the sacrificial lamb. And considering his track record of the seventeen other incidents that he had of police brutality that nothing happened, I feel like this is just karma coming around to bite him in the ass. So, um, I am happy with the twenty two and a half years that he's gotten

so far. I hope that there's another conviction coming down the pipeline um and hopefully this is a start to some serious um, you know, reformative change that needs to happen within you know, policing. Hats off to the young lady who videotaped it, because has she not videotaped this, we would have never known and they would have covered it up in Minnesota to say, how many people have he gotten the way with murder? With God see everything.

You might have got away with a couple of others, but we got you now, Poky Ray Ray, walk yourself to protect of custody. There's no need for him to ever walk out of prison. Take that however you want to take it. Hi, John, how are you? Yeah? I got me looking crazy. I took my head band off my head. We love natural black girl magic, we love it. Give it to us, give it to us, blame how are you? And we want and I wanted what you girl because you know you don't care. Ms Dawn do

first of all doing I want three things. I need you to come in. I want you to come in on the santis. I also want you to comment on what we were just talking about. Derek sholving. But I want you to start with how you feel about little nos X kissing. I don't want I don't want to see that. I don't want to see it. Tell us why I don't want to see our black men uh kissing it other like that on National TV, Like everybody was saying, be et supposed to be a family show,

not anymore. I just didn't think it was the platform to do that. I didn't care for Madonna when she did it. That was nasty. I didn't care for um, what's the little girl's name? Cardi? And UM. I don't want I don't want to see it. And it could be my age. You know, I'm older now, so I don't want to see all of that stuff. We didn't come from an era where everything is shown like it is now, so they could be it. I don't know.

I just don't want to see it. What you feel about what do you What do you feel about shoving and alf years? Well, I'm I'm surprised we got that. I'm very surprised that we got the twenty two years, you know, because I thought he was gonna get probation. I really did. I want to say something so funned up, right, now I want to say something so fun up right now, it's the thought in my head. I'm trying to hold it,

but I want to say it. Okay, they they didn't get him years because they only convicted him because they knew the city was gonna burn down and we weren't gonna burn it down. It was they were gonna burn it down. Okay, that's the only reason why they did that. You know what redemption You know what redemption would be in Schaumann's case. If it's play my brow, please don't. I got to. I got to just let y'all see.

I just gotta say it. If because his mom got up there and talked about how she would miss her son and wooo if the mom passed while he was in del and why he was in jail and he couldn't go to the funeral, that's it. Well, I mean even with the mom, though you we talked about how racism is a learned behavior, her remarks clearly showed you where his racism came from. She taught it to him. She did not say to the Florida family, my sincere apologies,

my condolencess. She didn't say nothing. It's all about her son. And he was her number one son, bitch. Really, so that's that's read. That's the way where he was incarcerated and he could not go to the funeral. I think it would eat his ass up even more. M h yeah you you shifted him out. Yeah, somebody just like come all see that's how you know, you know, I just horrible that that, you know, we this young man had to go through this, but we were lucky to

get twenty two years. I'm I'm serious. If he serves five of those years will be lucky because he's a police officer and if they let him out on good behavior again. You can always walk yourselves. I was in prison in the nine early nineties. You can always walk yourself and say that you don't feel safe, and they will put you in protective custody. Pookin Ray Ray have at it um. Like I said earlier, County jail and prison has two different This is this is federal prison.

Federal prison can be like club med state very prison. First, he's going the first prison. Yeah, because that's what I'm saying. If well, well, yeah, because if the federal charges, if he gets convicted of those federal hate crime charges with the other three officers. Then he's going to have he's going to go to federal prison and his sentence is going to be extended his state uh, state sentence first, then he goes to the faiths. Yeah, if he makes

it through the state sentence, right. But you know, that's two different places. I keep trying to tell people, the Catholic jail and the state prison. That's two different places. They make their own rules. They run. You know, people just go down to get a check, but they run at prison because the people who worked at the people in charge in prison then don't even do it. They paid the prisoners to do the work. They do the paperwork, they work in the office they were so they know

who you are, They know when you're coming. They put the word out baby, understanding that everything he can definitely get got Oh yeah, and all the all the guards gotta do is just turn their back. That's all they gotta do looking for look at he know and he's a preacher. He said he can get it. He can get it. But you know, I just it's just amazing how this day and age we're still going through this stuff.

And like we were talking earlier, Um, like I said, I hope that nobody that I know anything that we know our relatives are going through this stuff. But if they have to go through this, sou the police union that's the powerhouse, and no good rotten as police officers to the union, don't sue the city because you're paying you something for people like me and you they won't justice. Why we why should we have to pay for them?

So the union that that's where the money is. And if you and one thing, if one and I hate to say it like this, but I guess I'm gonna say it with the best way to get white folks is in their pocket because they know not to do it again. But wait a minute, because some of these white folks checks to be cashing. Now, let me just say my checks to be clear from the wife folk. Let me but you to say to get one union, one strong union, and you bust them down. They come

up with different rules and regulations. Somebody as long as they don't care. Yeah, somebody named says, Maya says, what does the mom have to do with the mom implemented herself in there when she went to the courtroom to speak on When she went to court to speak on behalf of her murderous son that she raised, that was her favorite, and never took the time to look and address his family and say, I'm sorry for what my son, because that's your son, lady, what my son has done,

you know, she says. She sat there and said that by the time he gets if you give him the ear the years and if correct me, if I'm wrong, by the time he gets out, his father not be dead. What bitch, okay, man, But but I mean, but that's the privilege though, because my life matters. But what my son did to George Floyd and his family, it's not a big deal. Because if if I died, my son should be able to be free to come to my

funeral if she passes away. I definitely do not want them to allow him to go to his mother's funeral. And people in Minnesota, if you don't like the verdict, if you don't like the sentence, then you need to start voting in the local area and get these judges out of office. Because see, once again, he only gave him the twenty two years because the city they didn't want the city to burn down, Okay, because he really was gonna give him teen years probation adjudicated probation. That's

how that should work. Well, they're saying he's probably only gonna serve about ten of those years with good behavior, it's probably what's gonna happen. So but you know what, Laurence in years six months is a long time in the in the in the state prison. That's a long time.

This is a long time. That's a long time. But my thing is this, though, we have, you know, us like black and brown folks that are in jail for much longer sentences for lesser crimes like um when the verdict came down, I saw a post that um Tina Knowles, you know, did saying that she had a nephew that was given you know, the same amount of time for a marijuana charge. And nowadays they're giving marijuana sentence out

to get people vaccinated. So the hypocrisy and you know, the law is very screw You have to and that's why we have to start voting and getting the right people in office to get these good old boys, these these no good as judges and district attorneys. They don't just start off at judges office, that's true. They out and then we won't We can rewrite some of the laws. But as long as we stay home and not do anything, they're gonna continue because they're still trying to stay in power.

And but similar to that too, I also hope that um Kamala Harris Uh. I hope that she takes it upon herself to do some due diligence and go and basically underes what miss McConnell did, because he also gave a lifetime appointment to a lot of local circuit judges and he appointed these racist white men to put you know us still in jail. So I hope that she also, within this stint, takes it upon herself to go, you know, fix that too. So HI not a fan, but I hope.

I'm gonna hope With your comment, your comment where you say your family members said that state jail is easy, I mean the state prison is easier and than jail. That's not true. So that's that's what a couple of families members said. They said because in county, in the county, you're only allowed out of your root or you're you're you're only out of yourself maybe one hour of the day. But when you're serving time at the prison, you can work,

you can go to school. You're out with the community, so it's not as hard as during time in the county jail. What state is this? This Washington State come to Texas. First of all, prison, we got a prison on every cler First of all, I've been in prison and I've been in state jail. Prison was definitely freer, but it wasn't easier. It was just freer. And when I say free, it was like you you can move around more. You wasn't as stationary, so you can go out to the dayroom, or you can go back to

your sale. But when people wanted to get to you, it's a lot easier to get to you in prison than it is in jail. Oh they can get you. But I but but my family was telling me that it's so much easier to do state I mean to do their time. Like I have a family member right now that's doing time in the prison out in Clauden Bay. What's this? No, I'm saying, I'm a pen path heay bab, you're relative, cassaid. Your relative must be a no G. They don't mess with og. He must be a no G.

There's a few, but yeah, they what you did. But yes, if from what I understand, it's a lot easier in in the in the state than in the county because you're out yourself. You get to communicate, you out and you get to you know, do whatever. So, but Texas is a lot different from one. Yes, ma'am, Yes, ma'am. Can I just say Pooky and Rayway and them, y'all old us one, y'all let them get away, y'all old us one. Well, well, you know, we're flaming, just like

how they got Jeffrey Dahma. They kept Jeffrey Dahma in solid solitary confinement for the longest and when they got tired of that solitary confinement, he just so happily casually got into poppy a general population, and they killed me. Yeah, he was mopping the flow and then they mopped the flow with today he was he was actually mopping when he was when he was murdered. That he was in the guy stabbed them with the mopstick, wasn't at that

was probably on parole, but Boogie was to look out me. Yeah, we can only hope that they'll take care of business because we still got Amber Grader in there too for killing up off the me so and to me women worse than me, And so I don't know why shut up, flame Moreau. Shut up. She's still trying to overturn her conviction though I think she has a trial date coming up to get her sentence overturned. So, and I'm still concerned about the two men that the father and son

and Georgia that killed the young man. I'm concerned about that because of what's going on in Georgia and the governor they have in Georgia, and wasn't the father police officer. See is the system is the good old boy system. It's the union that they still have ties to the union. They some of these unions still hold that commissions, even if they're retired or semi retired, they can still hold that guns. See it's a lot deep. But that's why I'm saying, you've got to go after the unions because

that's the strong hold. I three have the money. That's who I think. I think if we saw someone go after the unions, everything would because that is where the money. Do y'all remember, I hate I'm not only to go off track too much, but do y'all remember when the elder than black woman woman, I think it's in Alabama, Mississippi, that her son was murdered by the clan, and she sued the clan. The black lady, Yeah name, what's her name? Nick? I can't I can't think of her name. But they

did a documentary on CNN. I can't think of her name. She broke the clan too at that particular time. You know, I guess they changed names the arian nations and stuff like that now, but she broke the clan. She sued and one in a civil lawsuits. Let me tell you about us too. Don't be telling me you're gonna give me fifty million dollars and I gotta pay being crump and all these attorney's fees if I don't get fifty

million dollars. First of all, I'm not paying on at a feat because I would not be in court had you not let this reckless, irresponsible as individual loose on the world to kill my baby. That's first thing, y'all. That ship, If I'm getting fifty million, I'm on fifty million tax free. Treat me like I'm Trump. He ain't paying no taxes. I'm gonna pay something. Ship. Yeah, well, I will say in the mod Alreary case, Dawn what

you kind of touch. Yeah, in the mod Aubrey case, we do have a black woman who's the d A who's leading the prosecution. So it gives me some sense of hope. Um, whenever there's a black woman who's the d A and as a lead prosecutor makes me gives me a little bit of comfort. So, um, Lauren, I understand what you're saying, which is absolutely bought. Absolutely, but her woman to and if she's trying to go than

the d a's office absolutely have a valid point. But I'm saying in this case, because they've she's gotten so much backlash because they've tried to remove her from this case so many times, makes makes me feel like she's a good one because they want her off the case because they know that she's gonna actually do her job.

So it makes me feel a little better. And because it's taking so long, I hope that she's really building an airtight case against Um, I'm not gonna say their names against his father and the son that murder, the murder War one and murderer too, yeah, and the third person that film yeah murder. You know, we have to get these d a's, you know, these district attorneys they know down in dirty too, you know, because they all

go and play golf together. They all go to dinner, They at each other's house, they sleep in each other's beds. They threw each other wi all of that in the courtroom to get what they want, they do what they want to us. Can we just talk about how much golf Donald Trump is not playing since we are not paying and he lives at mar Lago. I'm just you know, he's still getting money from the government from all of the Secret services stated at mari Lago, he's still getting checks.

He's still getting checks. He's stick and they won't get rid of it. But it's called back page. He's getting back paid from all the secret Service days and everything else at mar Lago. So he's still getting taxpayer dollars. Let's not be confused. Yeah, the white man in America? True, Thank you Casing. But speaking of politicians, what do you guys think about the santis. We haven't touched on that. Well, you know what, Flame was talking about that this morning.

I've watched little news because this is depressing to see a building in this day and age collapse. That's number one, and it's not a natural natural disasters. A tornado didn't hit it, hurricane didn't hit it. What happened? And like you were saying earlier, flame somebody, it wasn't us, because we don't get those kind of jobs. So who signed off on the permits? Why is it taking so long to get the crane? Why didn't y'all pull that off

the first date? Like you said, why they didn't start from the top and the work they weigh from the bottom. They it almost seems like they wanted this ship to happen, you know. And as I'm sorry, and and of course the American people with the sacrificial lambs they didn't get They didn't get us with the COVID, they got us with something else. I got to say, I don't know that we can blame Holy the scientists, because what about the city or the like. Each county has their different

mayors and their different different codes, and they're different. So I say it's partly his fault, but I think we all need to blame the county and the people in charge. In like two thousand eighteen, we come out with this report that there's something wrong with the building. It's suspect to me. I can't blame the scientis for the building falling, Cassie, but I blame him for his irresponsibility and his lack of leadership when it came down to fixing this problem,

because you couldn't fix it. The building failed, but you could have got on top of it to show that you had some kind of compassion for not only American people, but these are people in your state. These are probably some of these people probably voted for this asshole. That's right. It reminds me of the other president that we have. You don't care about people, and this instance right here, it's like you don't care about these people. In this

instance right here, this building falling down. We just look like it fell. It looks like something blew up. It really did. It reminds me of the Twin Towers voting. It literally did, because one side fell and then five seconds later the other side felt it was sorry's sad, It's really sad. And then there was on the news

about the grandparents that keep calling their family. They I think of like sixteen calls and all the family here is a static, like my heart just goes out to the people like really, it's just and this is how we know we are human and we are American people. They love to say, well, black people always fighting the racist. I don't know how they said it was a Jewish mostly a Jewish building, right, mostly people residents with you wish of a Jewish community. We care because they were people.

We don't care what color they were, or what what nationality they were, or what got damn religion they were. We care because they were people. There are babies there and oh fuck ft N for this antis if you don't know what that means. F t N fun that nigga ship. I'm over it. I'm so heartbroken. What if I had a family member, They're a kid. Somebody is hurting up under that, and he don't care about that.

He only wants what he wants flowing up. Y'all got to do better, ship, But like you, we gotta vote them out. We got to vote these we do, you know, pecause they only in it for themselves, you know, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know how people can sleep. It's been hard for me to sleep thinking about them people. They all might prayer chain. I don't know how you can sleep as humans seeing people go through that and just to be able to sleep at night,

you know what I mean? They shoot us to stop, they shoot us, had to stop sayings and we go to sleep. So yeah, I can sleep, but but I'm still hard broken behind it. Yeah a man too. I get that, Cassie, but they child. Let me tell you something. More people need to band with with the black community or with black and brown people to say we need

things to change. Because if this wasn't that, if Jewish people are considered brown people, they've showing them that this that they would when they're done with us, y'all next. And that goes to whoever is listening. When they're done with us, they need somebody else to dominate, because that's how they are as a people. They need to be in control of somebody. So when they're done with us, who next on deck? Because they're not gonna do with each other. You can look at the courts system and

see that. You can look at January to six in Washington. They had they challenged those police, They fought those police, and every and nobody was getting shot into that woman climbed through that window, but they did everything they could. I just wanted to see an in special sturday night. I've seen videos that I had never seen before. Those

people are out of control, out of control. And had that been us, and I saw some dumb asked black for Trump's out there too, But had that been us right there on the forefront, on the front line, we would be dead as we came down. No convictions. It was probation. Fine community, and they're taken up from but let lets let us gather together and have a protest just about anything. And they have the SWAT team out

there Forney, we would have never hit the barricade. As soon as we would started walking up towards the barricade, they would have just opened fired on us. And then black a black man saved Nancy Pelosi and and saved Mike Pence because it was a black officer that led them. They would going the way that they were, and the black officers took them the other way. And they saying

his praises. They gave him a pat on the back, but they ain't saying his But y'all want to get praises to Amy Corney, Barrett and that other for doing their job. He did his job. They let him go. I'm ready to fire, I'm ready punched. LOR don't like look you with her glasses. I'm looking Lori y'all with her glass flame switch twins today. But anyway, we appreciate you guys always. Thank you for coming on. Um, thank you Cassie, thank you Don. Guys just brought the heat today.

And I'm sorry that we are in the situation. If I've seen hostile today, I'm angry because I don't tolerate bullshit. I just don't like bullshit. And this I don't know if this could have been resolved, but it didn't have to go down like this. But this goes back down to power and money because they cut they used inappropriate materials, obviously. And if that building is shaky, imagine the five or six other buildings just around them that's also shaky. If I was living in the high rise, I'd be the

move the funk out. I'm living a low rise ship well even not to it. I also don't agree with people that live so close to the water. I know it's beautiful and you know, the values phenomenal. And if there is a freaking you know, herd cane or tornado, does ask anything on the waves? Start rolling back? Where are you gonna go? Where are you going to go. It's just it's dangerous to live on beach front property. It just it is. It's always a risk at you intail.

So I don't agree with that. But anyway, that's just me. Yeah, it's it definitely is. But you know, people pay for those people, you know the deal. Everybody wants to be not everybody, but people believe that Florida and California are d places to be, so they like that coastal view, you know. So it's it's something about there is something to say to be said for smelling the Pacific in the morning. That is kind of cool, Lauren, you know that. You all but say, I don't know. I don't like

the beach so because I hate the sand. It gets everywhere. You can't get it out. The water in California is dirty. Okay, I'm not going to the beach in California. First of all, I'm not going to let y'all attack my state. We're talking about Florida, and I'm just saying Florida. Florida's water is beautiful. It's very clear. But again, I don't like the beach because I don't like sand. So, you know, it's never been an attraction for me. To oh, I want to live on the beach. It's it's never been

a thing for me. So I think, uh, you know, just to kind of put a button on that the condo situation. I think that in time of tragedy like that, there's just a lot of frustration and there are a

lot of questions, um. And I definitely believe that now with FEMA being involved as an emergency response and assisting who are who have the background in disaster recovery, I think that we may have an opportunity to make a little bit more progress and and finding out, you know, um, if there are other survivors or where the tragedy stands as it is. But we here laught and learn continue to send our prayers of condolences to those who are affected.

So absolutely, because we do care. I talked ship, but we do care, and I gotta carrying hard. I just don't want you all to know it. I like being a bit. I like being labeled a bit. It keeps the bullshit away, It keeps the bullshit away. Make people show people who you are in the beginning and they will all that bullshit would dissipaint. That's what MS. That's what MS Claire Maxie. That's why look good. She lives

her life unapologetically. She don't take no bullshit. If you could bring bullshit to her, she stops it then in her track. First of all, old black women do they anyway, Old Black women, old Asian women. I've seen some old white women, but they do it on the load. They throw the rock and have their hand. But the old black women gonna tell you to your baby, I don't like that. Take that somewhere else, and then that you can say back, because it's she old black woman, she

will shoot you. Um. So, I think we do need to share an announcement about next Monday. Right next Monday, there will be no Laugh and learned because it is the fourth of July and I am not coming to laugh. I'm gonna be barbecuing. And half not to say that we're supporting the fourth of July, because you know, we support Juneteenth over here and Laugh and Learn, but we're just staying to take the holiday to relax because it's triple and Kienda don't have to come all the way

it's been. It's been a lot. We haven't taken a holiday since Laugh and Learn started. So we're gonna take the holiday trouble and kindall may comfort that barbecue that just as you know, I'm thinking kinda might with my today because I was so tired and I didn't cook because you know, Kendall always eat. I had to apologize, like, dude,

I'm sorry, I didn't cook. I was tired. All of a sudden, you're not in focus this week, you know, just right, you don't see me, Kenna be like, oh, the beast in female and you're gonna see her at all. You're gonna see the real ear rings and nothing else. Thank you for joining us here and laugh and learned today. I'm sorry y'all that the world is in the state. I'm sick of talking about politics a little bit because I'm telling you it's kind of depressing and it's overwhelming

with the things that are happening in the world. And some of this stuff can be fixed before it even happens. You know, you can't cut corners on everything. You had to realize the people who were in charge of building these policies and doing all these contracts, because there's so many formalities that you have to go through in order to get building contracts and codes and everything y'all have to cut corners on that. You have to understand that

anything could happen. These people have died. There are people that are dead, missing children, and then when you look at the news and you see the family members out there, it's heartbreaking that you don't know. Imagine niggas if Ms Rosette was in that building and you couldn't get in touch with them. You know what I'm saying. People have to step outside of themselves and put themselves in that a ring and say, oh my god, my mom is in there, my children are in there. You know, everybody's

concerned about a dollar. Everybody concerned about a dollar. I want my dollars to That's why we're going to patrion a long sand me up a Patreon for love Lounge Longer be Free, on laugh and on I G.
