Speaker 1

Hold on, hold some special right you know this ship welcome, come come to the Alert show. You want to normally not tave you in some bog more exact sen your baby Solo. This is the Faller Alert Show, the ball Alert. How are y'all doing? To Za, you had a long nights? Who you are good? I'm good? Okay, I can't talk about it. I was just enjoying wine last night because I think that was what day two of projection. So so wait, wait, wait everybody, let's let's just feel let's

filling ball at the Baller Nation. Uh to So Sue Solo and I were talking last week. She likes she has you know, she has a crush on this guy and this guy has a crush on her. And she said, you know what, I'm ready to seriously date some I said, well, shoot your shot at the person that you know I'm staying that you're interested in. And I shot her shot Barr Stepmons that you know, me and this guy had an agreement that we were gonna keep it how it was because he wanted to focus on his career as

I did. But then ship times changed. Okay, I changed my mind. I had a change of hearts and I didn't want to have the conversation. Everybody said to do it anyway, so I did, and he said exactly what I knew he was gonna say that he was not ready to try to progress. He liked things the way that they were. So we just had to come to an understanding that I wanted more he doesn't. And it's cool, you know, we just so you got rejected, rejected, he says,

I didn't reject you. I'm just telling you that, you know, I you know, I want to focus on what I got right now, and I respect it. I so respect that. For me though, I can't even just like stay in that zone with him anymore. Like I gotta I gotta go. I gotta go date people and see what's out there in this in the dating world, you know. Okay, thank you for sharing that with us. And was that therapeutic a little bit or not? Whine? But it's cool though,

It's all good. I'm like his it's his lawsuit. Get out there and you're gonna find that one things may change, you know, you never know, we could work things out in the future, or maybe this is it. Who knows. All I know is I'm having a good time right now. I want to be romance, I want to be courted, and I want to have a good time. Okay, let me ask you guys this. How are you guys adjusting to your two to six shifts. Yeah, we all on the radio morning streets now four or five two pm,

and Su, Pim RRI and Sue at two. Only things missing is you. I appreciate it. Thank you. Well, yeah, I just say I wish um. My body is still adjusting to the timeframe. Mentally. I tell Sue all the time, like at four o'clock, I'm lit. I need to feel that way at two, Okay, So I just be like, l four o'clock, I'll be ready because that's when I wake up from my nap. Um My central nervous system

don't operate until about three thirty PM. An easier transition for me because during the morning show from six and ten, you're up at four o'clock and it's not like I go home and go to sleep. You know, when the show is over, there are still other things to do. I have brands that I work with, I have stuff that I have to do with Martell. I'm looking for

a brunch venue. So for me, it was really just more so now instead of running my errands after ten am, I can actually get a lot more work done before I go into the afternoon show, because I mean, it's just so much more time to do all those like corporate like things and those you know, very specific meetings that you gotta have. So it's been an easier transition from me. I think that the eating schedule has just thrown me off a little bit. But good though. Yeah,

we didn't good, we didn't good. We've got our salads, our poppies. Okay, cool. Yeah, I think you guys are gonna make the adjustment and be well off and tune in Friday to Shore. Let's get into it now. It's time for in Case you miss Steve. We can't get a little more injury than that plan was that. It's time for in Case you missed Steve. Yeah, okay. Fans can now stream Nipsey Hustles the Marathon visual album this Friday. A preview of the visual product was teased on Instagram

via the rapper's personal account. The Marathon Clothing account is l a based brand and by and by the animation studio Hokey Dokey. Fans can now watch the marathon Friday, February fifth at n pm Eastern Standard Time on YouTube super Dope along live Nipsey Hustle anything. His name for me is it's a win um and I mean Nipsy Hustle being being an Erritrean man, which you know is is home for me. Ethiopian Eritrea for me are still

one love. So seeing that you know somebody from my culture can really come up the way they did, you know, someone that's still held on to some of his traditional values but allowed himself to tap into his creativity. And I mean, you don't have a lot of Ethiopian Erritryan rappers, you know what I'm saying. It just doesn't really that's just really not a thing. So to see him succeed in that, like to follow his dream, succeed and then honestly proving himself to be a legend so early, I'm

super proud. Man. It makes me excited about this um to see that his family's legacy is able to continue to grow and that they can still keep his name alive. So I am so look forward to it. I'm probably gonna be wearing niftypou that whole day and I'm going to celebrate his life, his legacy and the art they keep shared with us. Man, it's really dope, alright, cool, alright, moving around along a long living See how some TikTok users warned of people editing the silhouette challenge posts to

remove filters. So let's make it very clear for the people who may not know. Okay, So the silhouette challenge is where you know, a man or woman predominantly Spien women are standing in front of the camera. It's well lit. They're wearing pajamas or whatever, you know, something frumpy or whatever the case is. They say, you know, if the light turns off, there's a red light behind them, and all you can see is they're silhouette. Now, some people are doing it in lingerie, some people are doing in

embody suits. But a lot of people are doing it but ass naked. Now that's where the problem is, because what's happening with the people that are doing it as naked is some creeps on the internet that know how to remove that red light filter. So when they remove the red light filter, what happens Now all they see is your nips, Yes, the whole thing. Okay, you're more to the challenge, what's some clothes on when you do it? Yeah?

To sus point, there are now many videos on YouTube instructing people on how to edit the software or showing you act to change it. Now they can't. They can't um necessarily take it back to its original form of how the silhouette looked before you added the filter, but they are changing the contrast of it and actually body shaming people who are doing this challenge. So I just encourage everybody to be safe. Where did the similar challenge come from? TikTok? Right? Oh, so it just TikTok the

sililar challenge on a date. I mean, I just know that it was hell up. I just kept saying all these little leprikaans on my comp and I had no idea what was going on until I figured it out. Well, people now on social media are calling for YouTube out for hosting the tutorials that are, you know, showing people how to edit these silhouette challenges, and they need to

and people just can't have innocent fun. Well, you know, the technology is a mob, you know, and like like Octavia said, it's people on YouTube telling you how to get the software to change the tent so it can reveal the people's bodies and what they show, what they really have going on. I don't even know how to do all that. Okay, uh where and parent parents check your kids social media's as well. Please? Can we move along to Super Bowl LV? All right? So I gotta

be on the job. I was looking forward to the Super Bowl because it's in Tampa. I w ills of Tampa, my dad and my step mom. Uh, A lot of my family lives in Tampa. I'm originally from West Palm Beach, but I spent a lot of my time in Tampa. So the super Bowl being in Tampa, I was I was scheduled to make a whole bunch of money. I just didn't want to chance it for COVID. Either I go down there, bring COVID back or uh, you know, I could be asymptomatic. Never tucht the positive for COVID.

But you know, if I would to go down there and see my dad and you know, ironically they get sick or something like that, I just wanted to stay put um. But man, I really wanted to go down there and partaking the Super Bowl festivities. And actually I wanted to go to the Super Bowl but COVID anyway, I'm going Buccaneers just because, uh slip spent a lot of time in Tampa and my freshman year in college they won the Super Bowl. So um that was a

long long time ago. Damn that was two thousand and three. You are okay, that money ain't as good as making or as the home is. Okay, well, now you're right, but yes, super Bowl, um man, I'm going Buccaneers. What y'all doing? Do you even know who's playing in the Super Ball? Yes, the Kansas City Chiefs versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And who are you guys picking? I'm gonna go. I don't my teammate in it, so I'm gonna just go with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Okay, I'm seeing Rory Okay,

so that's what I'm rooting for. Okay, alright, cool, that's cool. I appreciate that. And speaking of football, e A Sports is bringing back n C double A football video games. Uh, you guys, donna play games I do. That is a big deal. That was It's been missing for a long time.

Mrs tans for a lot of college athletes to play them play with themselves in the game I remember my cousin played football and it was super dope to see him on the video game, um when we were all in college because he played on the team, So that they had actually stopped that because they were getting paid, right, they were using their likeness and their their actual the actual players from college, and they risking their lives out there, you know, trying to get on and e A Sports

is making money, hell of money, especially when it was like in its prime, like PlayStation to PlayStation three, like Man PlayStation too. It was just like it was crazy, like everybody had the n C double A football. You waited for it every year. So, um, hopefully these athletes start getting paid, because I know that's what's been going on behind the scenes with the n C double A um as an n C Double A athlete, former NC double athlete, and I understand, Uh, yeah, where's all this

money going if it's not to the schools and the coaches. Well, now they say A Sports stated that it would use the rosters without the name, image or likeness of the real players are part of the inn cee a A's rules. They told that to Sports Illustrator, So the players still ain't getting paid, Yeah, which I think that sucks. So it's kind of me just gonna be a whole bunch of numbers. So you still gotta know the numbers. I can't remember. I haven't played it for so long. I

forgot how the original version was. I believe like the names were on the rockster, but like not on the field. It was just the number. But yeah, man, you know, it sucks. I hope hopefully one day we can figure that out. But my thing was too little, too late at this point. What about the athletes that have came

and gone already, that's for sure. Question. Do you think that an athlete were the let's just say, you know, do you think that someone with a third leg would have more of an advantage of being like a better athlete than somebody with's a leg? Um? Yeah, that's a random, weird question. But yeah, I wasn't I wasn't imagined. I was got one leg, the kicking leg, and then they got the two running leagues. So you talking about real legs, yes, better than two legs. I mean, you know, I don't know,

you know what, I'm not answering that. I'm not answering that. Let's move along. The KOVID vaccines the woman and got on Twitter. I thought was was was trending, and I want to go see if the song was trending, and and he's and he's trending. Why he? Why is he trending? Well? I believe that if three legs could make someone a better athlete than trade songs, maybe a very damn good athlete. Okay, that that's that's what I feel. So Trey Songs, you should go play sports with that third leg. You got

administration to send COVID. This is on Twitter tail pharmacy by then Administration to send COVID nineteen vaccines to retail pharmacy. The plan is to provide a limited supply vaccine the pharmacies throughout the country to meet the growing demand for the vaccine and speed up the slow rollout that has frustrated citizens. The program will provide about one million doses weekly, and in the beginning dry run stages, that number is

expected to increase gradually. Okay, what do you guys think? No, not taking the vaccines deserves vaccine. I think he deserves. I think I think he is priority. Make sure he is safe. Okay, I think. Um, I'm still gonna stick with what I was gonna do. Let you guys have it first. You know, are you still gonna post your uh, your experience of getting the vaccine? So you know, I think I'm gonna stick with what I was gonna do. And that's waiting on y'all, waiting on Rory and Tou

to go first. She said she's not gonna do it. And then I got in trouble for saying it on the radio, and my mom called me and was like, you bet not take that. You're gonna turn into a zombie. I'm only on my mom, Come on, so wait, are you gonna take it or not? I'm gonna take it. And then and then Tunisia and my wife, she want me to talk about, well, we need to get a life insurance. I'm over here, like what is wrong with y'all? Like cover? Okay, come on man, y'all triple man. Anyway,

my fisture isn't it's very important? Oh not throw on the phone. I have it. I have it. But she wants that, she wants to do it. She wants a new policy. She was like, let's get the policy. This is a new policy before you before you gonna take and I'm over here. Life fine, man a million dollar to see if it's a no for you. Correct, I'm going to wait it out for as long as I can. How about these stimulus checks, though, you're gonna be that I'm not trying to wait for those stimulus checks, but

you would you would be open to receiving the stimulus check, right? Absolutely? All right? Well, Democrats kick off the process towards passing the one point non trillion COVID relief package. Democrats are taking the first vote Tuesday towards a one point not coronavirus bill, potentially without any Republican support. The budget resolution put forward would allow them to pass stimulus checks, unemployment benefits,

vaccine distribution funds, and state of local government aid. Now, Joe Biden is saying this is gonna happen regardless of what the Republicans say. So ready or not, the money's coming as it should. The club lookings are I'm sorry at this point, they are continuing to prove how freaking cold they are. They know, the regardless of what Evana looks like to us, where we all are in our own cities and all that, a lot of people are really messed up out here. A lot of people really

don't have work. A lot of people really facing evictions campaign the bills. It is really happening to a lot of people, and for them to know that and be so cold is disgusting. I don't know how they can repair the image of the Republican Party. I've been seeing a whole bunch of articles about like repairing the Republican Party and all that. I don't know how you could do that when you continue to prove yourself to be cold. And ten thousand people switched parties? Yall, did you see that?

I believe there's ten people are no longer Republican. Yeah, their political party. They officially changed their Democratic party affiliation, which is crazy. Well side, That's all I can say. Welcome to the bright side, hey man, pray for the unity of our country and um perfect Ethiopia. Sou. Do you have an update on what's going on? Man? I wish that I could come on here every week with some good news, but it is getting worse each and

every day. There is still absolutely no media coverage allowed, so we don't know what We don't really know exactly how bad it is, but we do know that it's really bad. There are lots of reports of rape UM. There are reports of people dying in their sleep of starvation. At this point, the Prime Minister of Ethiopia Abby is using UM, He's weaponizing starvation. There are millions of people

without food, without water, and our shelter. Most recently, a refugee camp that had a little over twenty thousand people has completely we Those people are all missing. The camp was completely destroyed and nobody knows where these twenty th peop are. UM. I still have not spoken to my mother or anyone in my family too, you know, to keep it on real. I have absolutely no idea if she is at a camp, if she is safe, if she is alive, I have no idea. UM. There is

no medical aid, no food. The prime minister is discussing monster. Who really needs to pay for the crimes he's committing, the war crimes he's committing. Eritrean soldiers are still in Ethiopia as well, and they're helping the Ethiopian Prime minister with his UM, with his goal to completely terminate the people of Tigray. He is really trying to completely eliminate the people of this region and UM. As of right now,

he is successfully doing that. There's not enough media attention, and with people being starved to death, with people being raped, beaten um and pushed out of their homes, it's only a matter of time before true extension extension has happened.

So we are going to continue to pray that more and more people hear this, more and more people care enough to try to do a little research and spread awareness, because ultimately, if we're not the ones that are bringing awareness, if we're not posting, tweeting, reaching out to state officials, to senators, local governors, then we're not going to get the international attention that we need. And when you're talking about countries like Ethiopian, Eritrea, really almost any country in Africa,

we need international interference. And without the attention international um, the international communities are not going to interfere. So please

help us to get the word out. Please check out hashtag stop war on tip right, you can d m me at underscores to solo s U s O l O, and I'm more than happy to direct you guys some websites that actually have some prefixed tweets for you, so you don't even have to try to figure out you know how to say of what to say like there's a website that has everything done for you and UM I can get you in contact. I can you know, set you up with that with that website, So please

help us. UM. I hope that next week I have better news, but as of right now, we are going to continue to pray for Ethiopia, pray for tick ride, and continue to use and research hashtags dot war on tick. Lad you're listening to the message, all right, it is time for baller mail man. I told y'all this ship crazy. Dear RRII deed, my fiance proposed to me last week. I said yes, but his mom recently told me by accident that he proposed to his ex with the same ring he posed to me. She wore it in all.

Do I sound petty? I'm not trying to wear the same ring that he picked out for another beating. Should I say something or leave a be I am really really upset about it. Listen, baby, I'm upset for you. Okay, I have a lie to you. Man, that's a little rough. M and his mama told you by accident. Oh, I know you're type. Oh you look like you kind of just st Now how much do you love this man? How much do you charge this man? You know, uh, I think this is an adult conversation. You'll need to

have a mature adult conversation. So gather yourself, I'm I'm saying, get your composed right, take some deep breaths, and then think about your que points. Oh sigh, before you have a conversation with this young man. But it's foolish, foolish, foolish error. He has committed and if he cares about you, he will receive it and take an adjustment to make you happy at the end of the day, happy spouse,

happy damn house. Okay, I hope you can maturely talk to this man, because if you're going they're cutting his ass out, He's probably gonna mute the whole conversation in his head and just be like, oh yeah, uh cool, My bad? Was you. I don't even know if you're going to a conversation cutting the ass out. We hit you with the little mute button. But in reality, are you know up? Down, left, right? Control? Gain control is kicking in you? Says crazy, Oh, my bad, You know,

I didn't know, my bad. I ain't know. It's gonna be a problem. Mind, Ben's gonna be is if you're going there maturely and talk to this man, you may get him to respond in the way that he can articulate himself in a position to make you happy. Now, the part of him prop was into you with what old girls, the XCES ring. I can't help you with that. That happened. You found out he owned his own for that one. If you need my advice, my thing is

talked to him. How you composure right, have a mature conversation with him, let his asser respond maturely and then cuts his ass out. I mean, what do yall think, ladies? This is a hard one believe. I think it depends. I think we need to be realistic about you know, what their situation might be. So sis, if if money is tight, okay, she's not gonna wear it. Though. If money is tight, okay, then then I can understand and and and maybe you can find a way to be

okay with it. If money is not an issue, then I got an issue, Like we're not doing that, like you you could have at least got the ring damn reset or something like you're just gonna give me the exact same ring like or how about take it back and buy a new one, get a new one, trade it in, and I just feel like you probably thought that.

I just felt like he probably thought it wasn't that big of a deal, Like it's a perfectly good ring and the first one said no, so maybe you know, I just I just probably I think he probably could. You know, some guys are very are very short, you know, in their head, and I just feel like he probably thought it wasn't that big of a deal. But you know, since it is, I would definitely have a conversation and you know, take the ring back and get a new one.

Probably can't because the other fiance had been wearing it, but I mean there's pawn shops you can Yeah, you can trade it in at least, you know. Damn bro, Like, damn bro, what was the creativity? That's kind of that's not no bullshit that you do, bro. Like it's kind of like you knew that was a minimal effort. Bro,

Like you just said, I got this one. I'm just gonna bow now ring for the first beance And you really thought about what it was she would like when you look at that ring, you said, oh, I know she would like this. That means you didn't give me the same type of consideration when you came and proposted me with the same damn ring. That's how I felt when I read it. But you know, at the same time, I do understand too what you're saying, Like funds could be low. Um, but I don't know, I wouldn't propose.

And it's just like you said. It's just like you said, Rory, how much and love are these? Is this couple? You know? Because I feel like if a man really cares that much, he would have put in a little more effort. But who knows what their situation is. Yeah, that's that's how I mean. I understand. But hell, I think if the love is there, she's not gonna trip on. Um. You know, maybe you get in a different type of ring because funds is low. Like I said, you can always take

it back. He can always exchange it for some type of currency and getting a new ring if it's yeah like that man like so wait, so I hope you went and got to clean that late because you know, so did she accept the ring? Yes? She said, she said yes, she said yes, but she found out at after speaking to his mom that he proposed to his ex with the same ring. Yeah, that's a conversation, and it doesn't have to be all yelling and cousing this

person out. It's just a simple conversational. Listen, we're taking this ring back and getting a different one, or you know, I don't, I don't want this ring. I think you, I think and if I can give some info, uh some advice, I think you should definitely speak your mind. This is a space that you definitely should be allowed to speak your mind, and he should be she gotta wear it because you gotta worry he ain't wearing the ship. And then you found out his mom told you by accident.

Then like it's about how your secret too? Like yo, like yo, that just fight? Like what if what if that happened to you? When of y'all, Like what would y'all do? Like you'd be like you'd be blown, Like I'm blown. I would be blowed. Yeah, definitely now And you proposed to me that the same thing you proposed

to the X and the ex Warrior. When no man want to wear another man's ring, you know, when no man want to wear uh, you're like, oh, I had this, uh this band right here, so I ain't even we don't even gotta buy no extra when a band for you player here here, you go here, gonna be like that, you're right, well, yeah, I just have an adult conversation with that young man and then y'all hopefully y'all can get through that, hopefully and you know what, DM me

back and let us know how the conversation went, DM, DM me back. Let us know, because let's take it on. Let's take it the clubhouse. How about that? Take it on clubhouse.
