Transcript
00:00:00.000
all right let's watch this apology video for true geordie welcome back to the true geordie podcast
00:00:05.360
uh so let's get straight into it i've recently made a joke online and it's caused the reaction
00:00:12.680
upset people are not happy with it so me and laws want to come on here talk about it amongst
00:00:19.060
ourselves we were on the stream at the time that the joke was said by me wasn't wasn't lawrence's
00:00:23.600
joke was my joke just to be absolutely clear just to sort of give context for it uh uh an old friend
00:00:30.620
of mine i will call him mr potato head for the sake of this uh podcast because i know you'd be
00:00:35.560
desperate for me to say his name uh is also not true this is sounds trivial but it's not it's just
00:00:45.100
the way he is uh the quickest apology video that i've ever seen he made a little joke about blowing
00:00:51.640
up and within four hours this dropped i'm sorry the sad face and the thumbnail chat so you guys
00:00:58.300
give me shit sometimes for apologizing but my intentions were not to actually be insulting i
0.88
00:01:04.640
was making fun of haram behavior and then i had a muslim panel on so that i could go and reflect
0.97
00:01:09.600
and try to understand where i was coming from and get my intentions out there this apology video i'm
00:01:15.140
sorry if i ever do this you can cancel me he recently uh claimed to have uh joined islam now
00:01:25.800
given some of his previous statements that absolutely contradict what a lot of islam is about
00:01:32.100
uh i definitely uh didn't believe a lot of what i was hearing from the internet uh you know i made a joke
00:01:41.520
in questioning that newfound faith of his that conveniently comes at a time when he needs as
0.63
00:01:47.280
many supporters as he can get it was a stupid joke as much as i don't want to repeat the joke i think
0.95
00:01:52.400
it's only right so that people have context who don't understand uh i said if he really wants to
0.99
00:01:56.740
prove he's a muslim he should uh blow himself up as suicide bomber or something like that now when i when
0.96
00:02:03.420
i say that out loud when i'm the clear difference between christianity and islam though and i don't know
0.99
00:02:08.320
if this is a valid enough reason to join any kind of religion just to to point out the disrespect
00:02:12.820
but the fact that so quickly within four hours all the people and i know the same thing is the same
00:02:17.620
thing happened to me all the dms that you get from all these different from all over the world
00:02:22.420
billions of people saying that they're going to strangle you and beat you up if they've ever seen
00:02:25.520
you in public is incredible you could dress up as a nun on halloween you could dress up as a priest
00:02:30.080
you can go to work at the church and they don't care the difference is very clear and that's why
00:02:35.820
andrew's talking about how islam is better but i don't know if that's a good enough reason to join
00:02:39.980
a religion just because the tolerance of disrespect is less i don't know how much more valid that makes
0.74
00:02:46.440
an entire religion when i'm aware of it fucking horrendous you know it was one of those off-the-cuff
0.99
00:02:53.080
remarks that i made in a with a total lack of thought and i used uh an unrealistic stereotype
0.99
00:03:01.120
to take aim at someone who seriously dislikes me obviously i don't believe that's what muslims
1.00
00:03:09.500
actually do and i don't actually want mr potato head to die as much as i don't really like him
0.99
00:03:16.520
um it was a very stupid thing to say it was an idiotic joke true jordy looks more like mr
0.99
00:03:25.320
if we're gonna if you're gonna make jokes like that like you literally this is more accurate to you
00:03:38.980
book uh one i'm sorry for you know you know i don't believe any religious stereotype just to be
00:03:50.720
clear whether it be all priests torpedoes or all jewish people run the world and are rich like
1.00
00:03:56.460
they're all as ridiculous as each other to me and that was partly why i felt comfortable in that
0.99
00:04:01.040
moment in saying something so ridiculous because i never thought for one second that anyone would take
0.99
00:04:06.160
offense to something so silly right you know at the time i'm sat next to a guy who has a muslim family
0.71
00:04:11.940
who knows how much love i have for everyone like you know i'm not a prejudiced guy or whatever you want
00:04:18.260
to call me is that right prejudice is definitely yeah um and but now after like feeling out the
00:04:26.360
backlash and what people are saying and i'm talking about the genuinely upset people i know some people
00:04:30.480
will just use anything to try and take you down and i get i've given them a golden opportunity
00:04:34.640
but i understand like some people have had that thrown in their face a lot and for me as much as
00:04:41.600
it's ridiculous and it's something that i don't believe i understand that for them some people
00:04:46.860
have had years of that being said to them you know and i really wasn't thinking about that in that
00:04:50.700
moment so yeah uh all i can say is sorry when i was sitting there i i guess when i watched it back
00:04:57.200
i was like oh maybe i should have maybe i should have said something there even just as a friend
00:05:01.200
just to be like oh you can't say that but the problem for you is you know me so well bro if i flagged
00:05:08.680
everything you said every uh live stream we wouldn't get a live stream done no but you get what i mean
00:05:13.120
yeah i'm you you know and that's the difference is you know but they don't i know i know and i get
00:05:18.840
that i know where you're coming from but i i think especially as a podcast who is this guy
00:05:22.920
pastor and i think as people who um like at least we aspire you aspire to speak for a living
00:05:27.780
if maybe if you misspeak sometimes or you say something that you don't fully understand at that
00:05:33.360
point it's also good to acknowledge we need to keep watching this 22 minutes of an apology
00:05:37.500
you know i've got people who i love and respect who are muslim who uh who may see that and think
00:05:44.160
oh so that's how he thinks about us right like this is like the real yeah oh the faces slipped and
00:05:50.580
it's like god like i would hate for that you know um do you ever consider i'm bored compare it to
00:05:56.580
kyrie irving who did apologize and he was forced to apologize and they gave him a list of chores let's
00:06:02.020
see what he said was on prime i was like you know what let me see if there are any documentaries on
00:06:05.060
yahweh so went in the search bar typed in yahweh that came up went out and shared it on my platform
00:06:12.500
you guys know what happened with kyrie right he tweeted out a link to a movie about hebrews
00:06:17.540
like wake up black america and then nike removed him now he's saying he's gonna retire
00:06:22.520
the title is i'm not going to stand down anything that i believe in but i thought he apologized
00:06:28.660
that was my night in terms of the backlash or what people call it uh we're in 2022 history is
00:06:36.960
not supposed to be hidden from anybody and i'm not a divisive person when it comes to religion
00:06:41.760
i embrace all walks of life you see it on all my platforms i talk to all races all cultures all
00:06:47.760
religions and my response would be um it's not about educating yourself on what semitism is what
00:06:55.140
anti-semitism is it's really about learning the root words of where these come from and
00:06:59.360
understanding that this is an african heritage that is also belonging to the people africa is in it
00:07:06.260
whether we want to dismiss it or not so the claims of anti-semitism and who are the original chosen
00:07:12.100
people of god and we go into these religious conversations and it's a big no-no i don't live
00:07:16.980
my way like that i don't live my life that way excuse me i grew up in a melting pot and i say a melting
00:07:21.580
pot of all races white black red yellow jewish christian muslim and you can see the way i live
00:07:26.360
my life now i'm not here to be divisive so they could push their i don't want to say they because
00:07:31.560
i'm not identifying any one group or race of people but i'm in a unique position to have a level of
00:07:36.960
influence on my community and what i post does not mean that i support everything that's being said
00:07:42.300
or everything that's being done or i'm campaigning for anything all i do is post things for my people
00:07:47.600
in my community and those that it's actually going to impact i don't think it's an apology
00:07:54.120
it just goes back to the way our world is and works i'm not here to complain about it i just exist
00:07:59.060
and to follow up on the promotion of the movie and the book can you please stop calling it a promotion
00:08:06.540
i think he was promoting it if you tweet the link it's literally you promoting it on your big
00:08:14.200
platform i'm promoting you are put it out on your platform but i'm promoting it do you see me doing
00:08:21.260
do you see in front of you out there people are going to say that you are putting out there just
00:08:25.180
like you put things out there right yeah but i okay it's not putting things out there for a living
00:08:29.160
right right but my stuff great so let's move on filled let's move on anti-semitic let's move on
00:08:34.060
don't dehumanize me up here i'm not i'm not doing that i can post whatever i want so say that
00:08:39.600
and shut it down and move on to the next question but kyrie you have to understand that i don't have
00:08:43.560
to understand anything from you it's not me nothing it's no people that you're making up bro move on

next question kyrie basketball it being important to build on that defense and getting back to your
00:09:10.180
habits and getting to your i've noticed this from debates and talking to all these people is that
00:09:13.900
they always try to get a moment they want to get you a moment where they're apologizing they want to
00:09:17.500
get you to retract your statements to admit to regret it's not an actual dialogue when the cameras
00:09:23.280
turn on we're all thinking about clickbait now spots how would you just describe the defensive
00:09:27.800
effort and the mindset of the team tonight it was a disaster i mean how do you
