of his services. He is a one-of-one. I'm grateful to learn all about the world of chauffeuring.
00:01:38.560
Yeah, like usually like this is good. Right there? Yeah. Okay. This way it's not too static yet.
00:01:43.520
But now if you get locked up like this, then you can move this. Oh. You know what I'm saying?
00:01:47.680
Nah, nah, nah. I'll loosen up and wiggle around. Whatever you gotta do, I'm that Muhammad, our
00:01:52.560
listener, baby. You feel me, though? I hear it all. I don't miss a beat. Nah, and then, you know,
00:01:58.960
as emotions go, you know, you move around and wiggle the neck. You know, you laugh here and there.
00:02:03.220
Yeah, you got different pieces inside of you, bro. Yeah. And that's how it works, man.
00:02:06.800
Stan Boilu. Boye. Damn. Well, I don't know how y'all say it in Louisiana. Yeah. But in New York,
00:02:19.280
all my life, it's been Boye. Boye, son. Boye, dog. I like that, bro. I wonder what it means.
00:02:27.020
Probably beautiful or something. It means a beautiful place or thing. Ooh, that's it. And that's part of
00:02:30.940
the BS that I tell women. You do? Because my name, Stanford, Stanford means a hard rock or stone.
00:02:37.500
Boye means a beautiful place or thing. So like I tell them, within that hard rock, if you can get
00:02:42.980
inside of it, it's a beautiful place. It's like a gemstone in there. Yeah, it's some real bullshit
00:02:49.300
to lay on them, though. Oh, you gotta lay it on like that. That's how you do it, man. Well, one thing
00:02:53.640
I noticed about you right when I met you, because you and I met, I went to a South Carolina football
00:02:57.800
game a few weeks ago. Yes. And you're a chauffeur. Yes. And so you pulled right up on us and immediately
00:03:03.020
we were like, wow. Yeah. This something is going on here. This guy got loose, you know?
00:03:10.020
We were laughing immediately. Oh. We were having so much fun, man. And is that where you're
00:03:14.900
from, South Carolina? No, I'm from the Bronx. Ooh. I love the Bronx. So you started out there
00:03:20.500
or what happened? Like, how did it go? Was your family was there? What was y'all doing over
00:03:24.100
there? Well, in 95, my first wife left me and she went to Charlotte. Her mother was an IBM
00:03:30.120
exec. And I used to go to see my daughter once a month. That kind of got to be expensive.
00:03:35.300
So in 97, I literally walked off the corner in the Bronx, got on the Greyhound bus and went
00:03:42.920
to Charlotte because my first ex-wife's mother told me that if I was serious about changing
00:03:49.480
my life, she would give me a shot. I stayed with her briefly until we had a conversation
00:03:57.640
where she told me that, um, I'm supposed to be giving her something more than just rent
00:04:03.440
while I'm staying in her house. Oh, no. She was looking for a little bit of limb, huh? And I asked
00:04:07.760
her, what are you talking about? Because I do your grass. I do the laundry. I don't bring anybody
00:04:13.360
here. What more do you want? She told me I was a man and that she's pretty sure I could figure
00:04:19.200
this one out. Dang it. She wanted that interior design. I said to her, are you talking about the
00:04:24.760
bonus plan? And she said to me, whatever you want to call it. And she said to me, it's my house,
00:04:30.480
my rules. If you don't like it, find another place to stay. I moved out the next morning
00:04:35.100
and I've been off and running since. Dang. That's it. You said, look, I'm gonna make my own choice for
00:04:41.840
me. Why didn't you make that choice though? Was there something about it? It's just that wasn't in
00:04:45.320
your, that just wasn't in your DNA to say, I'm gonna provide that for you ladies. No, first of all,
00:04:50.620
that was my first wife's mother. Oh, I didn't realize. My first wife and I are really still
00:04:56.520
cool. And that's my oldest daughter's mother. Oh, I didn't realize. Yeah. I think I missed a
00:05:00.480
beat of the story. Yeah. No, first, first ex-wife's mother. And yes, my daughter knows. Yeah. My
00:05:07.700
mother, my ex-mother-in-law and I, we, we have survived that. We don't even think about that.
00:05:13.100
Oh, that's a speed bump, man. Was she using at the time or something? Well, we all potheads. Yeah.
00:05:18.080
Okay. So you never know. If somebody gets a little bit high, you don't know who you
00:05:22.440
fucking. Man, dog, not me. Oh yeah. You're right about that, bro. It's like shit, boy.
00:05:28.060
You're right about that, bro. No, because I knew you, you, you, you, you see things like
00:05:32.960
that would surface back later and my daughter might've resented that. You made the choice
00:05:40.580
that you had to make as a man. Yeah. All right. So you're down here in Charlotte, you end up
00:05:45.040
down there, you, you head down there, you live with your ex-wife, her mother. Briefly.
00:05:49.860
And stuff gets a little wild down there and you're like, man, I got to get back out in
00:05:53.540
the world. This ain't the spot for me. Yes. Was that it? And is that when you started
00:05:57.680
chauffeuring down there in, uh, in Charlotte, when do you, when did you get behind the wheel,
00:06:02.880
big dog? I started chauffeuring in 99. As a result, I was driving a truck on a highway one
00:06:11.400
day going to Raleigh and a guy in an SUV kept riding next to me, um, trying to get
00:06:19.380
my attention coming from the Bronx with that Bronx mentality. I'm thinking it's a, it's
00:06:23.840
a hijacking. So I started dipping the truck, uh, towards his SUV and then the window lowered
00:06:28.980
down. And he said to me, he wanted to talk to me about a driving job. We got off the next
00:06:33.400
exit. His name was Shane. He was from Miami and he told me that he needed a driver for
00:06:38.160
his stretch navigator. I had never driven a limo before. I decided to take the opportunity
00:06:46.060
and it gave me a feeling, man. And I've never looked back. I mean, every guy wants to look
00:06:53.240
good driving a nice car, burning somebody else's gas and getting paid for it. Woo. And I really
00:07:02.420
enjoy it. I mean, it is me now. Oh, when you pull up, I was like, this is a, it was
00:07:08.140
just part, it was this ensemble, bro. It wasn't like I was going with you. You were taking,
00:07:13.040
it was like, this is an adventure. You are welcome to stay in Afghanistan, baby. You know
00:07:18.800
what I'm saying? That's what it felt like. I enjoyed myself that particular evening. Oh,
00:07:22.760
we had a great time, man. What are some of the, like, what are some of the things with
00:07:25.860
chauffeuring? Like you have a code of ethics and conduct. Like what are something you have
00:07:29.280
to remember as a chauffeur? What I have to remember is as a chauffeur, first of all, it's not
00:07:37.600
about you as a driver. Your job is to make sure that, that, that your guests have a good
00:07:44.080
night. They enjoy themselves, safe driving, great customer service, you know, make sure
00:07:51.180
they enjoy themselves. You know, if you have a, a sprinter, make sure they know how to, you
00:07:57.200
know, work the music, the AC. You have to do a lot of ear hustling. You know, if you hear
00:08:02.960
the women say something like somebody has to go to the bathroom, you're supposed to
00:08:06.960
hit them. Hey, listen, group, we're going to make a stop because I have to go to the
00:08:10.620
bathroom. Oh. If you hear them say something like they're running out of beer or they need
00:08:15.560
some more soda or water, then that's when I'll hit them with the, hey, y'all, listen, I'm
00:08:19.360
going to stop at a convenience store because I need a Mountain Dew. I see, put it on you.
00:08:23.020
Bingo. You know, you always have to try to stay a step ahead of them. Make sure that
00:08:29.080
wherever the venue is that they're going is safe for them. You have that responsibility.
00:08:36.500
And if you have women and I'm a male driver, I make sure that them women are safe. I have
00:08:41.240
seven sisters, but that particular evening that I have those ladies, they are my sisters
00:08:46.580
Yeah. Cause people don't know like when they're getting in with a driver, what their mentality
00:08:50.900
is, you know, what are some of the worst things that like, uh, passengers can do kind
00:08:55.340
of, man, what's the type of shit that throw up, throw up in my vehicle. And what you
00:09:00.880
talking about vomit? Yes. From being excessively drunk. Yeah. You know, um, I had a guy one
00:09:06.680
night, um, he's hanging out the window throwing up and then I was in Charlotte and he asked me
00:09:11.200
to pull over. I pulled over, let him throw up. Another time I had a group that I was taking
00:09:16.340
down to Orangeburg and the Sprinter on a Monday. No, excuse me. It might've been about a Tuesday
00:09:21.660
morning. I won't say the name of the organization. And the guy started screaming, Hey Stan, stop,
00:09:26.040
stop. I pulled over on I-26 and let this guy Earl out the window.
00:09:33.940
Yeah. Um, but things that I detest are somebody that's too drunk because you can't rationale
00:09:43.820
with them. You can't reason with them. And then normally when somebody has been drinking
00:09:48.840
a whole lot, the evening is going to go downhill. Amen. Every time. I mean, that's a given no
00:09:54.100
matter what's going on. Yes. And you ever have anybody try to, try to get you or get them,
00:09:58.160
uh, get them out there to hustle to get a bag or something, get a little bag of dope or something
00:10:01.580
like that. Um, I mean, does that happen? I'm sure people ask that kind of shit all the
00:10:05.360
time. Well, people ask as a driver, especially out of towners, do you know where they could get
00:10:11.560
such as such? And what they looking for usually you think? Normally somebody might want either
00:10:16.840
a little, uh, cocaine. Yeah. And my thing is, I don't know anything, you know? I mean,
00:10:25.080
you never know whether they're an undercover agent or what. Plus also my boss would really
00:10:32.160
be let down if that happened, you know, in our vehicles. Oh, for sure. You also don't know
00:10:38.280
if they a little bitch and they can't handle their cocaine. Boom. Boom. That's right. That's
00:10:42.940
true. That's the true boy. Uh, so that's the kind of thing like, cause yeah, sometimes people
00:10:49.060
don't think like when they go do something like they, they, they meet up with a chauffeur, you
00:10:53.380
have a responsibility as a passenger as well, right? Yes, they do. And people just, you know,
00:10:57.820
like, I think that's just about life. People think just because somebody's providing a service
00:11:01.700
doesn't mean that you don't start to be a human being, you know, in that instances and take care
00:11:05.580
of yourself. Um, have you ever had a spot where, uh, like what, I'm sure this happens a lot where a
00:11:12.280
couple wants to make out or make a little bit of sex or something. Brother, it happens. You gotta
00:11:18.020
stay in the car and put your ears like that or what do y'all do? Okay. It's happened more than you
00:11:22.640
think. The first time it happened, I was in a stretch limo and I heard some kind of weird noise
00:11:28.700
and I had the partition up. I went to lower the partition to see what was going on in the back.
00:11:33.860
And as the partition began coming down, I started trying to push it back up. I didn't want to see
00:11:38.660
it. Her legs was in the air. My man was pile driving, you know, um, about two or three months
00:11:45.280
ago, I was in the sprinter and I had, um, or I had some newlyweds. They were in Columbia outside of a
00:11:53.440
little bar or something. Their wedding party was in the bar. They came out and got into the sprinter.
00:11:58.940
I thought the wedding party was coming out behind them. I felt the sprinter rocking to the side
00:12:05.780
and, um, I went to look into the back. I saw what was going on. I got out the sprinter
00:12:10.380
and I, and I went into the bar to go see whether or not the wedding party was, was coming out.
00:12:15.060
They told me, nah, that time is for them. I gave them about 10, 15 minutes. Then I knocked on the
00:12:20.540
sprinter. Hey, I'm about to take y'all home. When I took them home, knocked on the door,
00:12:25.200
they were just getting dressed. It happens brother. Yeah. So when you knock on that sprinter
00:12:30.840
door, is it a hard knock like a cop or is it something kind of chill? Like how do you,
00:12:34.500
cause you know what I'm saying? You still have a responsibility. You got to make sure.
00:12:36.980
No, um, it's a soft knock just to let them know, Hey, listen, I'm about to, you know,
00:12:43.200
check on y'all or we're about to get moving. I mean, you already know what's going on.
00:12:47.180
Yeah. You know, I mean, honestly, that's why people rent limos and sprinters, man.
00:12:53.200
Uh-uh. You'd be surprised, man. Damn. Oh dude, I do remember just now, actually,
00:12:58.780
I ended up getting a BJ out there and, uh, yeah, I forgot about that. Thank you. Actually,
00:13:04.620
thank you. I never would have remembered it. I ended up getting a BJ out there from some girl.
00:13:08.040
I think she was like a Lieutenant, uh, like third Lieutenant. Um, I don't know what was happening
00:13:14.800
to her. She, I think she was, I don't know if she was missing something. I don't remember what
00:13:18.000
happened to her. She'd been in the military for a while and she, uh, she rattled me off a little
00:13:23.660
BJ over there somewhere. And that was in, I believe this might've been over there in Missouri,
00:13:28.460
somewhere over there. Now as a driver, you have to avoid that. You do? Oh, them trying to give it to
00:13:36.120
you. I do. Got it. I don't know what any other driver does, but my thing is I have two daughters
00:13:42.020
in total, including my god sisters. I have seven sisters and I would not want any driver
00:13:49.300
to think that he is a celebrity because they are out that night and they've been drinking and have
00:13:55.680
a good time and they may be hitting on him for him to go for it. They're hitting on you because
00:14:01.420
they're drunk. They don't know you. They don't even mean to. They just out having a good time.
00:14:05.100
Don't go for it. Yeah. Don't do that. It's a trap, huh? Yeah. Have you heard stories of drivers
00:14:09.160
going for it and anything happening to them? I've heard drivers brag about going for it.
00:14:14.320
I would never, I actually avoid it. I have run before. I have lied. Really? You had a runoff?
00:14:20.460
Yes. You ever have to lock a woman in a car and just get away? No, I want them out the car so I
00:14:25.900
can get away. Got it. Got it. Got it. Yeah. That's better. Better idea. Yes. Um, one lady actually had
00:14:32.360
me call my mother three o'clock in the morning and I woke my mother up because this lady was gifted.
00:14:39.900
I, um, I had two ladies in Charlotte one Saturday. Um, now I, you know, um, they were at the breakfast
00:14:49.060
club having a good time. Okay. They were really drunk. They lived across the street from the
00:14:54.520
Panthers practice facility. Now, once again, I have seven sisters. So my, my intent is always to walk the
00:15:01.480
women to their doors. I walked this lady to her door. And as we went to shake hands, she took these
00:15:08.280
two fingers and this thumb and stuck them in her mouth. And she was holding my arm over here and
00:15:14.300
I'm trying to get it from her. And the more I pulled back, the more she pulled in. And now she has her
00:15:21.220
eyes closed. She got veins sticking out her forehead and she's going off on my arm. I couldn't get it out
00:15:27.140
of her mouth. Now, this is the truth, y'all. Eventually a feeling went down my arm, down my leg,
00:15:35.620
made my toes curl, came up my leg and hit my right testicle. I snatched my arm out of her mouth,
00:15:44.440
ran, jumped into Lincoln. I'm trying to start it. It's going jig, jig, jig, jig, jig, jig, jig, jig, jig, jig.
00:15:49.520
Yeah, because it wants to stay and get that blow job, bro.
00:15:52.260
And then when the car started, since I had my foot on the gas, rocks went flying out from
00:15:57.760
behind me and the car zoomed off. I went around the corner, skidded to a stop and caught my
00:16:02.760
mother three o'clock in the morning. I'm like, mommy, mommy, mommy, you got to wake up. You got
00:16:07.560
to wake up. And mommy's like, Stan, what's wrong? So I told my mother what happened. Mommy's
00:16:12.220
like, Stan, so why'd you run? I said, mommy, she has skills. If she could get on my finger
00:16:18.720
and make my body wake up, imagine y'all might not have ever seen me again. My mother was
00:16:25.480
like, Stan, you crazy, man. Leave me the hell alone so I can go back to sleep. Man, yeah.
00:16:30.900
Another time, I walked a chick to her door. I had to go to the bathroom. I don't care if
00:16:38.160
my stomach is upset. I don't go to the bathroom in women's houses anymore. This young lady let
00:16:43.820
me into her apartment. I went to the apartment. I'm peeing. When I went to open up the bathroom
00:16:48.380
door, she was standing there with her panties on. No bra, no clothes, no nothing.
00:16:53.140
What kind of panties was it, you think, if you had to guess?
00:17:02.300
What'd she say? Did she say something, or was she standing there just kind of rocking
00:17:07.060
She told me that she wanted to give me a tour of the apartment, and she wanted to show
00:17:11.240
me her bed. And when I told her that I wasn't going for it, she told me that the guy I
00:17:15.740
was driving for, once again, Shane with the Stretch Navigator, that Shane told her that
00:17:22.600
she could have me, because he was having her friend, that he picked up two chicks in the
00:17:31.900
I got out of that, y'all. I told the young lady that there were condoms in the limo, and
00:17:36.020
I was going down in the limo to go grab a couple of condoms. I got in that car, and yeah, y'all,
00:17:41.760
I've said that kind of shit. Damn, bro. I've said, I remember one time I couldn't get
00:17:45.520
an erection, right? And I don't know if you guys deal with that in the black community
00:17:50.180
or whatever, but I couldn't get an erection, you know, a white erection or whatever.
00:17:55.320
Yeah, and so I told a girl, I was like, oh, I'm going to go get some condoms. She's looking
00:17:59.400
at me like, for what? You know what I'm saying, bro? But I was trying to make an excuse
00:18:05.460
And, bro, I've been going eight years going to get them condoms. I ain't been back there
00:18:12.800
Actually, that type of issue, and I'm going to be honest, y'all, since we talking, that's
00:18:21.240
Three times, it had me dead. The first time, I was confused. The second time, I'm like,
00:18:28.660
wait a minute, wait a minute. The third time, I knew it, and I was with my second wife. That
00:18:34.140
was my last time that I used it because how she made me feel so stupid when she was sitting
00:18:40.000
there plucking it, talking about, look at this. What am I supposed to do with this? What's
00:18:43.580
wrong with this? What did you do? And I'm sitting there feeling dumb and dumb, and I said
00:18:48.220
to myself, ain't no woman on the planet going to ever make me feel like this. And I have
00:18:55.060
How long did you use it for, Stan? Be honest with me, bro, because I've been down that road.
00:18:59.020
I might have started using cocaine when I was about 15, maybe 16, and I stopped at 33.
00:19:04.240
A lot of that had to do with lifestyle in the Bronx. Growing up with the guys that controlled
00:19:12.960
I mean, whether it was a coke, whether it was a heroin, my guys were narco-terrorists.
00:19:23.180
Like, were you at school seeing it after school? Were you not in school? Were you seeing it
00:19:27.560
like just on the playgrounds? Like, did they have gang members that had, like, what was
00:19:31.940
Like, when you say guys that controlled the area, take me on that.
00:19:34.680
Like, what was your neighborhood like growing up? Like, take me through a little bit of that.
00:19:37.640
I'm from the Bronx. I come off 169th Street, Washington Avenue, the Morris Senior
00:19:41.280
neighborhood. Our project was called Claremont Village. It's a good project. Um, you know,
00:19:47.260
recently there's been a few shootings, but this is America, so that's going to happen.
00:19:53.160
But one thing that I can say, um, about that particular neighborhood, if it wasn't for a
00:19:58.540
man named Mr. Curtis Johnson, he was responsible for the schools being open, for evening basketball,
00:20:06.420
for the Friday night hip-hop shows. He got the summer youth employment, um, the free turkeys,
00:20:13.640
the free cheese, the, uh, bus rides, the great adventures, the, the pool mobile, the skate
00:20:22.140
mobile, all of that used to come in, like, the neighborhood Johnson.
00:20:26.140
A big giant truck that came to the projects that had a pool in it.
00:20:30.180
Nah, motherfucker, you tripping now, bro. You understand?
00:20:34.260
Hold on, hold on, hold on. First, let's back up, man.
00:20:36.460
Yeah, man. In the summer, they used to have, like, uh, um, every now and then, like, the
00:20:42.720
skate mobile would come through. You know, it's an impoverished neighborhood, so those things
00:20:49.300
And so they, what was that? They would just hand out skates to everybody?
00:21:00.960
Got it. So there was a block off an area, the truck would come with the skates, and
00:21:06.640
But just the way that creates a neighborhood event, you know?
00:21:08.960
But then, they would close off in front of Claremont Center, and a large truck would
00:21:17.780
Yes. Yes. And we would have pool mobiles, skate mobiles.
00:21:28.440
Yeah, this is it. And this right here on Perplexity says,
00:21:31.520
Yeah, New York formerly operated mobile swimming pools called swim mobiles.
00:21:36.520
Essentially, pools attached to trucks that could be parked on residential streets during the
00:21:42.360
These swim mobiles provided underserved neighborhoods access to swimming.
00:21:45.600
While the era of true mobile pools is over, there have been recent proposals for pop-up
00:21:51.540
or portable pools, such as dumpster pools and temporary pool installations.
00:21:56.760
What happened to those pools? Can you look that up for me really quick?
00:22:05.020
New York City's swim mobiles disappeared, mostly due to changes in pool filtration standards,
00:22:11.060
which made mobile pools harder to maintain and operate legally.
00:22:19.980
They had to fucking make a big deal out of it instead of putting some ointment on it.
00:22:24.360
Additionally, budget cuts made it difficult for the city to support their upkeep.
00:22:30.880
Oh, also the rising number of permanent public and private pools also reduced the need for
00:22:46.900
It's like when they closed off 169th Street between 3rd and Washington, there was always
00:22:52.820
something going on for us, you know, whether it was the skate mobile, the pool mobile, or
00:22:59.480
just a block party, you know, it was always something.
00:23:03.100
But when they would close off the street, that's the reason why I don't get on skates,
00:23:11.720
I was that stiff kid who would put the skates on and just float until I could either touch
00:23:19.860
I'm not good, like, on wheels like that and shit.
00:23:24.320
Nah, and one day, I was on the skates, and I'm going towards, like, the rope.
00:23:31.280
And this girl pulled the rope back as I got near it, and then she let the rope go, and
00:23:45.980
Bitcoin just hit an all-time high, baby, which is pretty wild considering that it was at
00:23:55.420
When I need more Bitcoin, MoonPay is always the first app that I open because it doesn't
00:24:01.920
force you to buy a whole coin, and it's super easy to use.
00:24:05.620
MoonPay is also one of the biggest partners on the show, and I'm excited to share that I've
00:24:10.640
made the decision to accept my compensation from them in Bitcoin instead of U.S. dollars.
00:24:16.640
I'm planning to hold and save that Bitcoin in my MoonPay account.
00:24:21.120
The Bitcoin will sit in a digital MoonPay wallet that nobody can access except for moi.
00:24:27.080
The U.S. dollar continues to fluctuate in value, so by making this decision, I'm diversifying
00:24:32.600
my portfolio and hopefully earning more from our partnership than I would have otherwise.
00:24:37.420
Remember, while MoonPay makes buying crypto straightforward, it's essential to do your
00:24:42.200
own research and understand the risks involved.
00:24:45.000
Crypto trading can be volatile, and you could lose your investment.
00:24:48.380
MoonPay is a tool to facilitate your transactions, not a source of financial advice.

00:26:09.640
Let's get back a little more towards the occupational side of things.
00:26:14.800
How hard is it to drive a limo and why are those pretty much extinct these days, man?
00:26:30.440
That particular market is almost drying up because of the sprinters.
00:26:35.380
Like the Mercedes sprinters has basically eliminated the stretch market because why would you put,
00:26:41.160
say, eight to ten people in a vehicle that's low and they'll be sitting down,
00:26:47.000
the driver has to make wide turns versus putting them in a sprinter, a Mercedes sprinter,
00:26:52.080
where it may be 13 passengers, it may be a 10 passenger, it may be the party bus,
00:26:55.780
depending on how the owner operator has the interior designed, people prefer that.
00:27:12.300
The reason I drive with two hands is because one hand is not going to do it right and a lot of times,
00:27:17.100
like the wheels move, you have to constantly look into your mirrors and you have to always make sure
00:27:24.940
you have distance between you and the vehicle in front of you because those vehicles don't stop on a dime.
00:27:29.460
And a lot of times, like the public, people will see like the sprinter or they'll see like a limo
00:27:35.000
and they'll try and undercut you and stop short.
00:27:39.400
You know, as if they're trying to cause an accident.
00:27:47.640
I'm constantly looking in like your middle mirror if you have one,
00:27:52.600
but most of the time you won't if it's a stretch.
00:27:55.900
If it's a sprinter, you're not going to have that either.
00:27:58.680
So you have to really learn how to use your mirrors, keep the space in front of you.
00:28:06.960
You have to be a really good driver as well as taking care of your charge, of your people.
00:28:16.660
Would it have been some situations that have gotten a little sketch out there for you, like on the road?
00:28:21.460
Like what's some of the most harrowing situations you've had to deal with?
00:28:26.480
And one thing as a limo driver is that you're not supposed to, you know, pick up, you know, person that hasn't been booked.
00:28:38.240
I was at the bowling alley in Charlotte off of Park Road.
00:28:43.820
I dropped somebody off over there and I was about to leave.
00:28:46.260
A guy came out the bowling alley and he asked me if I was going to the uptown Charlotte area.
00:28:51.780
And he said to me how he had never been in a limo before and, you know, could I just take him?
00:29:03.520
And then the guy asked me, he said to me, hey, is it true that as a chauffeur you're not supposed to be armed?
00:29:11.960
He said to me, so what would you do if somebody's robbing you?
00:29:14.180
I was like, man, I ain't even worried about that.
00:29:16.060
And then the guy said to me, man, look, what would you do if I'm robbing you?
00:29:20.060
And I turned around and looked at him and I said to him, why?
00:29:22.600
And then the guy said to me, man, because this is a robbery.
00:29:27.420
And I said to the dude, okay, it's like this, man, because now he messed up.
00:29:37.360
I could hit my brake, open the door and roll out and let the car go.
00:29:48.840
If you have a gun, I roll out the door and the car keeps going.
00:29:53.620
I said to him, now, if you have a knife, that means that you have to be up on me.
00:29:57.700
And if you're up on me, because the guy was, you know, leaning close.
00:30:00.820
I said to the man, if you're up on me, here's what's going to happen.
00:30:09.380
I'm doing about 90 miles an hour in Charlotte about 2 o'clock in the morning, looking for
00:30:13.900
a cop, turning corners, driving wild, skidding and all of this stuff.
00:30:22.340
And I'm hollering at him, we're both dying tonight.
00:30:27.080
And like I said to him, my family know I can drive.
00:30:31.520
So if I hit a building, they're going to know something was going down in his car, man.
00:30:44.300
And I'm sitting there going, wait, how about the robbery, man?
00:30:50.820
But that's the kind of shit, brother, you got to be prepared for.
00:30:56.640
You pull up at a gas station and you refueling the coach and then somebody come up.
00:31:02.880
I'm sure you're running to some characters out there, man.
00:31:07.260
You do, but that's where the Bronx, that's where that 169.
00:31:11.680
Like I tell people, yo, dog, don't walk up on me, man.
00:31:29.900
Because if I got to take off the glasses, we getting down.
00:31:39.020
Fighting and, you know, and I tell people, do not walk up on me.
00:31:54.520
No, because I have this $200,000 vehicle and I have people.
00:32:00.360
I may have somebody who's a $200 million person with me.
00:32:04.200
I don't want anything to happen to that person.
00:32:06.340
It's not my responsibility to be executive protection, but I'm not going to let something
00:32:15.940
I mean, me and that person will stomp somebody out together.
00:32:32.460
You told me a story about blading out a dude, huh?
00:32:37.540
This guy, he was a home contracting scam artist named Mickey Moore.
00:32:43.280
My house in Charlotte that I had bought and renovated, it had an HVAC problem.
00:32:49.140
Now, once again, y'all, I'm a reject from the projects.
00:32:51.240
I don't know any of the language as far as that Central AC and HVAC and all of that stuff.
00:33:00.520
A friend of mine put me in touch with a friend of his who worked for a guy.
00:33:13.160
I mean, he told me everything that I needed to hear.
00:33:15.300
My, at that time, girlfriend was saying to me, Stan, something sounds funny about this.
00:33:22.120
And I told her, no, well, he's a friend of this dude here.
00:33:29.700
Well, come to find out, heroin user, heroin dealer, pill user, pill dealer.
00:33:49.580
He does all those Jesse Ventura impersonations.
00:33:51.980
This guy here, he had a company in Charlotte called CSC of the Carolinas.
00:33:58.360
The lady before me, an 87-year-old lady, he scammed her for $43,000.
00:34:07.740
He took out a perfectly good HVAC system that only needed to have a fuse change.
00:34:14.660
He incorrectly installed a highly defective unit that he must have bought off the marketplace
00:34:21.460
or from some bogus place that had turned my crawl space into a foot of mud.
00:34:30.020
He took out a regular HVAC system and he put a fucking two-story microwave in that bitch.
00:34:35.000
We literally had poison gas coming through the floor.
00:34:39.260
Another air conditioning company cut off my gas.
00:34:43.260
They threatened to, I mean, I was having headaches and stuff.
00:34:46.960
That's because he put a lawnmower in that bitch.
00:34:49.180
He put a riding lawnmower where your fucking HVACs was.
00:34:52.000
Then he vandalized my central air, figuring that.
00:34:56.460
State Farm noticed the paperwork was incorrect and they called me and said to me,
00:35:05.860
And then when they explained it to me and then I'm like, wait a minute.
00:35:15.720
They checked the work and they told me what he did.
00:35:18.760
I contacted this guy and he told me, F you, Stan.
00:35:41.480
And when I found him, Mickey Moore had an eight to 10 inch knife on him and a crowbar.
00:35:56.540
A little while later, Mickey was popped eight times with his own knife.
00:36:21.140
I explained to the judge that I'm from the Bronx.
00:36:25.240
And if you take somebody's weapon, it's called a free kill.
00:36:29.480
She told me that in a civilized society, there's no such thing as a free kill.
00:36:39.920
But anybody, once again, who knows me knows that I'm no dummy.
00:36:51.360
You just have to watch out for that femoral artery that the judge told me that I almost hit.
00:37:07.140
And you based over there out of Columbia, South Carolina.
00:37:18.100
when you pull up somewhere in Columbia, South Carolina, man, that's the guy to do it with.
00:37:27.820
One story you was telling me, oh, so you've had some love issues over the years, bro.
00:37:48.580
Yeah, and I was telling Theo how January 7th of this year, how she hit me with a pot of fettuccine
00:37:59.040
noodles that I was boiling, and I ended up in...
00:38:06.200
And I ended up in the doctor's hospital in Augusta, Georgia, which is America's largest burn center.
00:38:12.520
And I had to have some surgery because my left ear was melted in the back.
00:38:25.740
And then after telling Theo the story about how I got beat up that particular night, and my gold chain was twisted into my neck.
00:38:40.280
She came by my apartment, and, you know, once again, you know, drunk people, you know, it's hard to rationalize this, that, and the other.
00:38:58.280
I'm frying some chicken parmesan, making the fettuccine noodles, and making the vegetables, and, you know,
00:39:10.400
I'm trying to get her out the kitchen, and then when she grabbed a hold of my chain and started, you know, choking me...
00:39:17.820
And basically, I had to get her attention by feeding into what was going on.
00:39:26.860
And then when I was moving out of the kitchen, she began looking at the stuff on the stove, and I was hoping that she did not grab the chicken parmesan with the vegetable oil in it.
00:39:39.460
And instead, she grabbed the pot with my fettuccine, and I said to her, don't do it.
00:39:46.140
And then she picked it up, and as I turned to run, I felt it hit me.
00:39:51.220
And when it hit me, I ran out of my door, and I was screaming, ah, you really burnt me.
00:39:56.540
And then my dog, Snowy, Snowy started trying to attack her then.
00:40:02.460
I went back into my apartment, but I had already called the police.
00:40:06.960
I left my door open, and that's when the cops showed up.
00:40:10.640
And when the cops showed up, like, did you get...
00:40:12.540
Was there water in the pot, too, or just in hot noodles?
00:40:25.120
So would you rather, in hindsight, got hit by that entree, by that chicken parm, or you think the fettuccine?
00:40:36.320
Given a choice, the fettuccine was better because the chicken parm was in vegetable oil, and that would have really torn me up.
00:40:42.600
And how did that feel when that first hit you, man?
00:40:58.240
And I ran out my door, and I said to her, you burnt me.
00:41:05.080
I went back inside, and she was telling me at that time, she realized what she did then.
00:41:25.000
And when the police and the EMTs came, they were literally picking noodles and stuff off me.
00:41:50.340
I didn't do anything because I didn't think it was bad.
00:41:55.400
Then the next day, I went to see a friend of mine to borrow some money.
00:42:07.400
And when my friend looked at my head, he said to me, what happened to you?
00:42:26.680
You look like a model in one of those fashion shows or something.
00:42:37.460
Actually, it's my friend Scott that owns Signature Transportation.
00:42:51.220
And when I walked into the emergency room, they didn't take my name or anything.
00:43:08.420
And one doctor said to me, sir, there's nothing we can do for you here.
00:43:28.060
And they told me the referral was for 7 o'clock tomorrow morning.
00:43:36.300
Because this shit looked like they got you in a damn to-go box right here.
00:43:39.280
I went home and took a shower not knowing that I shouldn't have did that.
00:43:47.880
And then I smoked me some herb and I went to sleep.
00:43:50.680
I got up the next morning, got in my car, and I drove to Augusta.
00:43:56.740
Is it dripping us into your shirt or what's popping?
00:44:08.700
It was just weird because it felt like sweat on one part of my body.
00:44:18.200
I didn't know that the back of my ear was literally melting.
00:44:31.760
They got you fucking looking like you're going to space right there, bro.
00:44:36.440
But the crazy thing is, man, like I tell anybody.
00:44:48.880
As bad as it looks, I can honestly say because I still deal with her to this day.
00:45:15.900
I mean, and this happened, and the police wanted to arrest her.
00:45:21.380
They were trying to convince me to let them press felony charges on them.
00:45:33.900
That'll be two more young black men in the system.
00:45:37.780
And my thing was, she was intoxicated and emotional.
00:45:45.280
Had she not been intoxicated, it would have never happened.
00:45:55.260
It's not like she's hiding in the woods sober with a fucking pan.
00:45:59.460
You know, orzo or angel hair pasta or something.
00:46:03.740
This was something that was drunken, and then it happened.
00:46:15.160
And that's sometimes how, that's one of really the interesting things about love, I think,
00:46:24.140
And everyone I know tells me, Stan, stay away from her.
00:46:36.860
But like I tell her, okay, I'm a little older, but ask your friends, do they have a good man?
00:46:52.720
I mean, I go out the house to walk the dog, buy my herb, get my Mountain Dews and my Dutchmasters.
00:46:59.680
Look, that's a South Carolina fitness routine, man.
00:47:08.500
But my thing is, when it comes to her, I'm there for her.
00:47:15.180
I mean, that's the interesting thing about love, man.
00:47:21.580
Some days it's just the same movie over and over and over again that you really are at peace watching.
00:47:27.600
But to be honest, I can't take much more of that particular madness.
00:47:32.440
No, the madness that goes with the whole relationship.
00:47:54.020
I want somebody to make me happy for this last, what?
00:48:04.920
Look at the, bring up another shot of him in that helmet, bro.
00:48:11.960
You look like an undercover cop at a cotton ball factory, homie.
00:48:23.980
One of the doctors asked me, well, how could you take the pain?
00:48:35.680
I mean, other than it's stinging, I was literally in shock.
00:48:43.060
Yeah, you a damn Lego person at that point, man.
00:48:48.980
I mean, like anything else, it goes up and down.
00:48:52.020
But right about now, it's beginning to get old.
00:49:02.680
If it's going to, it would be nice for it to evolve into a better place.
00:49:08.140
Either be real with me or be gone so that somebody else can go on and get this dude here.

Well, is pornography causing a problem in your life?
00:52:10.840
Do you find yourself watching porno for longer periods of time and having trouble stopping?
00:52:17.300
Is porn affecting your relationship or dating life?
00:52:24.560
Watching pornography has become so commonplace today,
00:52:27.820
and oftentimes men use porn to numb the pain of loneliness, boredom, anxiety, and depression.
00:52:35.780
Shame and stigma prevent men from talking about these issues and getting help for them.

00:53:43.800
I was just thinking the other day, like, you know,
00:53:47.240
it's nice to think about that person that's out there for you kind of like,
00:53:51.060
And, like, I realize instead of sometimes I'll be a little bit like,
00:54:00.100
It is exciting, though, too, thinking that there's somebody out there, right?
00:54:03.280
You know, and where that person is and what their life is like.
00:54:09.140
Oh, bro, I'm going to see you on the throne with your dime, bro.
00:54:13.860
At least while I still got a little lead in the pencil.
00:54:19.200
Has that ever been a tough thing in, like, your relationships?
00:54:24.700
What have you struggled with in relationships, do you think, man?
00:54:27.760
Because you were good when you were a chauffeur, right?
00:54:38.020
Well, that's something that a lot of women have a problem with.
00:54:40.820
Especially, and I hate to say this, and y'all going to jump on me about this,
00:54:47.580
Because a large percentage of our African-American women have been raised in a household without a father.
00:54:55.140
So that dominating or that stand-up man is not there.
00:55:02.540
But when they run into a strong guy who's going to lead and speak, they want to resist.
00:55:22.000
You know, but a lot of African-American women, that's not in their household.
00:55:28.260
You know, you hear a lot of black women saying, oh, well, I don't need no man.
00:55:39.080
Now, you hear your boy, excuse me, your son hears you all the time saying, oh, well, I don't want no man.
00:55:50.220
That lowers his self-esteem, and that makes you raise a weak man.
00:55:56.680
You know, your daughters pick up on that same mindset.
00:56:00.380
And they grow up being resistant, you know, to guys trying to lead them.
00:56:05.760
And see, that's a world that I don't know about, you know, because it's not part of, you know, it's part of my universe because I live in the universe.
00:56:14.200
I don't have a lot of experience in that space.
00:56:18.800
Like, what is it like, how do you think, if you look back on your own life, you could have been better at being somebody who loves?
00:56:28.160
First wife, I was streetwise, running in the street, hanging on Washington Avenue.
00:57:08.620
One of my older brothers, a guy named Tony Purnell that I really love, right?
00:57:13.840
I would put on, like, my Lagerfeld and T would say, yo, Ice, because that's my nickname in the Bronx.
00:57:19.540
Yo, man, that stuff got you smell like a wet paper bag, man.
00:57:23.540
But the women would be doing things like, whoo, who's wearing that?
00:57:31.000
And Tony would be going, yo, yo, yo, Ice, but I don't need that to pull him.
00:57:50.200
And these glasses, this is my second pair of Pradas.
00:57:54.720
And as you see, they are a little injured because, like, my first pair of Pradas, my dogs got to my Prada glasses.
00:58:07.200
She chewed off the side here, bit on my lenses, but didn't dig this, y'all.
00:58:11.380
I do have a brand new pair of Prada glasses at the house.
00:58:15.520
I just have not had the prescription put in there yet.
00:58:22.740
You got to tell them you got to preach that exactly.
00:58:25.100
What advice do you have to young men out there who's starting out on their path if they could look back on your path and do something different, bro?
00:58:30.940
Or what have you learned in your life so far, man?
00:58:35.940
You are entering that third trimester of your life, right?
00:58:39.540
And it's really, it's kind of like the master class of life in a lot of ways.
00:58:45.120
When you have at least the most experience to share from.
00:58:47.400
Like I'll tell anybody, the street, leave it alone.
00:58:54.620
You young guys, y'all want that street credibility?
00:59:09.560
I mean, like I told my son Ricky when, like, he was telling me he didn't want to be a nerd.
00:59:19.480
Because I wanted to be in with the in crowd, okay?
00:59:23.300
I got tired of being teased, picked on, called the professor, the scientist.
00:59:33.560
I told my son Ricky it's okay to be a nerd, all right?
00:59:43.720
People who picked on him, the girls who laughed at him, the guys who threw stuff at him.
00:59:50.220
They would love for him to at least read a resume.
00:59:54.980
Them bitches trying to download his dick right now.
01:00:04.560
He's just a younger, smarter, better looking version.
01:00:14.380
He's getting a master's in Spanish and Spanish culture.
01:00:22.180
I told him, I got five years taking law classes, y'all.
01:00:34.940
And blessings to Ricky and your children, Stan.
01:00:40.920
So you get over there, they got you in the burn water.
01:00:46.460
Because once that side item hits your neck and your shit's dripping, bro, you got to tighten up.
01:00:54.340
If you get hit by a side item, then you're dripping, bro.
01:01:00.680
They gave me an injection, and I woke up later, wrapped up.
01:01:10.780
The doctors told me that since I drove myself from Columbia to Augusta, that I can't leave.
01:01:34.320
And like she said to me, Daddy, you already know, and I'm not going to get on you.
01:01:47.860
My youngest daughter, Unique, she came, you know, checked in on me for a few days.
01:02:01.260
It's really weird because you have to change your bandage every now and then.
01:02:07.780
You have to keep it clean because, you know, you have open burns.
01:02:14.160
You know, now it's come back in nice, you know, because of the ointment they gave me.
01:02:18.880
And then I was putting cocoa butter on it almost every day.
01:02:29.320
Um, our relationship regarding that event, we've moved past it.
01:02:37.580
Um, and now we're on to other issues that are messing with the friendship or the relationship.
01:02:48.000
What do you, uh, what do the ladies need most, man?
01:02:51.360
If you want to keep a lady, you think, what do the ladies need most, you think?
01:03:03.000
Understand that during the course of my life, the serious relationships that I've had,
01:03:09.860
and I do understand when people explain to me that my personality has caused issues
01:03:15.540
because I'm a friendly guy, I'm a talkative guy, I like to smile, and I'm a handsome guy.
01:03:42.460
No, it doesn't, and I can't help it because I'm a social guy.
01:03:48.640
Um, I try to keep the flirting down to a minimum, especially if I'm involved with somebody,
01:03:59.760
It's, I'm, and I'm not even a Scorpio, but how about this?
01:04:02.860
Uh, people say the bedroom plays a big part of the life and the relationships.
01:04:37.480
It's, you know, it's, it's, it's different and that causes problems.
01:04:49.260
So, so, so, so the body's acting different, but the experience kicks in.
01:05:00.720
If you had to think physically, if you had to even.
01:05:25.360
I mean, um, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I remember in the past I've had, I've made women speak alien.
01:05:42.620
They, they don't even know what the hell they even said, you know, and we get past that.
01:05:58.020
Homie, you out there teaching, you teaching new languages, Stan.
01:06:08.680
Um, has a ride, uh, that a passenger ever led to a date or a relationship, even in a
01:06:15.000
professional, you know, not like on the, at that moment, but like, let's, let's talk
01:06:24.800
What if a passenger like starts to pass out or something?
01:06:32.240
Like, could you hand, like, could you, do you think of, was there ever an emergency you
01:06:35.800
Um, no, and if there is an emergency, I'm going to do two things.
01:06:39.260
I'm going to Waze, and I'm going to look for the nearest, uh, emergency room, and I'm
01:06:48.720
What do you think about Waymo's when you see them, those Waymo's?
01:07:11.480
At all, because what that's going to do is eventually, that's going to eliminate us
01:07:18.600
And then if that driverless car happens to hit somebody, like me, or, uh, my kid, I can't
01:07:24.520
drag nobody out by, like, their ankle and beat them up.
01:07:28.700
I dragged a man out of his car by, um, his ankle in front of Lincoln Center on Christmas
01:07:35.580
No, he happened to, he was a taxi driver, and I had just bought a conversion van in Charlotte,
01:07:43.460
Now, I'm leaving New York, I'm on my way to the Lincoln Tunnel, and a cab driver hits
01:07:48.420
my van after I passed him, and I asked him, why did you hit me?
01:07:53.880
I mean, I was past you, and he said something dumb.
01:07:56.540
I don't even remember what it was, but at that particular time, remember, y'all, this was
01:08:03.320
Uh, I, I dragged him out of his car by, um, his ankle and beat the dude up, and, um.
01:08:11.540
I went, I went to jail, um, in, uh, Manhattan, um, um, and what happened was I had to pay his
01:08:19.140
hospital bill, um, restitution, uh, you know, COB good program for a year.
01:08:27.140
Were you in, uh, were you in jail for Christmas?
01:08:38.660
I was locked up in Charlotte, um, over the holidays.
01:08:43.560
It's, there's a lot of guys that are unhappy, you know, guys are depressed.
01:08:49.580
Um, I think I got out two days after Christmas, or, you know.
01:08:56.580
Um, I got out and was crazy, um, because this was with me and my second wife.
01:09:01.600
Once again, I had a young lady who, you know, would drink a little, things would go on here
01:09:07.940
Um, once again, another good girl, but, you know, it just wasn't right.
01:09:15.940
And, um, I was in jail for over, like, the Christmas thing, and, um, but, once again, now we have a very good relationship.
01:09:25.720
She's the mother of my daughter, Unique, and my son, Tariq.
01:09:34.600
Young people, you know, with, um, issues, you know.
01:09:42.720
And then you're always young to another age, so it's like, the issues never stop.
01:09:48.260
Um, have you ever learned anything from a passenger?
01:09:51.120
Like, has there ever been a passenger that you really learned something really valuable from?
01:09:56.600
Um, I've had some passengers that I was talking to one day.
01:10:02.840
And, um, I was talking about my multiple failed marriages.
01:10:21.920
I mean, this old couple, they started getting aggressive.
01:10:27.540
And she was supposed to, she was supposed to do 100%.
01:10:45.340
Because you think about it differently, kind of.
01:10:46.900
That's a different, that's a different approach to a marriage to a day.
01:10:50.700
Oh, just because now there's two of us, we each have to do 59.
01:11:00.380
And another thing they told me, the man told me, he told me to tell her,
01:11:11.460
Have you ever driven any Asian people or anything like that?
01:11:22.100
I've had athletes, entertainers, some very, very, very rich people over the years.
01:11:35.360
I love the, you know, like the Saturday night people.
01:11:39.020
You know, those that are looking to have a good time.
01:11:43.120
You got, they got such a good energy over there.
01:11:45.620
You know, because y'all almost got, y'all got the palmettoes kind of milling around.
01:11:54.760
You know, I mean, from North and South Carolina, they have a good location.
01:12:00.920
Because you have the beach, whether it's Myrtle Beach, let's see, Charleston.
01:12:12.200
You know, you have Fayetteville that you figure two, three hours away going east.
01:12:17.100
Then you have two, three hours away going west.
01:12:19.960
You begin to go into the mountains in North and South Carolina.
01:12:28.360
You know, we don't really have to worry too much about the hurricanes.
01:12:31.500
I mean, it's great, but you definitely have to worry about mosquitoes.
01:12:35.120
And you got to worry about these bad bitches pulling up.
01:12:40.600
Because the South has the women, and since the weather's a little warmer, you know, the
01:12:45.620
You know, make a man burn out his retina or something, man.
01:13:00.340
That's like, I tell people, since I have this fused neck, I be telling them, man, hey, my neck
01:13:29.300
That's like just attaching your kitten to a little hitching pose, baby.
01:13:41.300
But most people, they don't have this type mobility.
01:13:44.380
I mean, most people with this much surgery, they're a little messed up.
01:13:51.120
I mean, the only thing that I can't do is hardcore things.
01:14:03.820
All you're doing is running into your future, Stan.
01:14:09.400
What I do love, man, is that you're still excited about your life.
01:14:12.480
You're excited about, like, you know, love, making love.
01:14:15.180
You're continuing to have love out of the people you have in your life
01:14:18.300
or the possibility of new love coming into your life, man.
01:14:22.400
And I think that's one thing that just your energy is infectious, man.
01:14:27.720
If people want to see you, when they come in, we'll put your info so people can reach out.
01:14:41.640
It was me, my buddy CB, my buddy – who else was with us?
01:15:01.260
We pulled up at the Wendy's and told that lady at the front you was a domestic abuser.
01:15:12.900
She tried to give you an extra little freezer cup.
01:15:19.240
And then that lady – remember, we had to pull her forward to get that last sandwich.
01:15:23.080
When they say that shit, we're the only person in line.
01:15:27.960
Yeah, you know what I was talking about, pull up.
01:15:36.940
It's like they can make three, but they can't make four, man.
01:15:40.180
They had to come up talking about, oh, it's a special order.
01:15:50.120
I just want to thank you so much for coming and hanging out.
01:15:51.840
Now, so anybody could be a chauffeur, but it takes – it's not just you driving.
01:16:00.920
It's setting yourself secondary to your customer, making sure to keep space between you and the car in front of you.
01:16:15.020
Stan, thank you so much, bruh, for spending time and hanging out, bruh.
01:16:18.500
Good luck to the Gamecocks the rest of the season, man.
01:16:30.000
This is only – if I – I'll get my Jeep and drive here, man.
01:16:37.600
Make that left and get on I-40 and get off right over here.
01:16:40.720
What's the longest ride you ever had to take somebody on, man?
01:16:42.940
I took some people from Columbia to Jackson, Mississippi because they are restauranters.
01:16:52.020
They have a restaurant in the Columbia Airport, and they were opening up one in the Jackson, Mississippi Airport.
01:17:07.180
I've taken some other people to Orlando down to the hotel.
01:17:14.660
But as a New Yorker, I'm conditioned to drive up to the Bronx at a phone call.
01:17:35.580
And at one point in Charlotte, I was the driver for this dude that had about three or four girls who stayed at this house.
01:17:44.520
He told me he was their manager, and I was their driver.
01:17:50.600
One of the young ladies, you know, she picked me, and I drove them to their appointments.
01:18:01.340
I will come back and pick you up because if you're sitting outside, then you're part of the organization if they get arrested.
01:18:21.760
I think he called himself script or something dumb like that.
01:18:24.760
He said to me, hey, yo, Stan, man, I need to talk to you about a payment arrangement.
01:18:31.300
He going to say to me, man, do you think I can pay you in pink?
01:18:39.060
I told him, no, dog, I don't want that nasty shit.
01:19:01.020
Monday, Mondays and like Thursdays, they're going to do their nails.
01:19:07.660
Wait, Thursdays would be nails and hair because they got to get ready for the weekend.
01:19:11.920
Monday, they trying to straighten themselves up from the weekend.
01:19:17.220
Yeah, Tuesday and Wednesday hit the gym a little.
01:19:20.680
What I didn't like was when the girls would try and flash to her like me.
01:19:37.780
You know, I have friends that are working sex work and stuff like that.
01:19:48.960
Is stabbing someone above the waist worse than below the waist legally?
01:19:52.480
Stabbing someone above the waist is generally considered more serious legally because it
01:19:59.220
Legal consequences for stabbing above the waist can be harsher as it may be classified as
01:20:04.720
Stabbing below the waist while still a serious felony may sometimes be considered less immediately
01:20:08.720
life-threatening unless it causes delisability or hits major arteries.
01:20:30.560
And other than that, people, if you're looking for me, you can also keep an eye on the OG
01:20:37.260
poet because I do poetry, y'all, and I'm fierce.
01:20:40.900
I've heard him do something last time when we were in your car right before you dropped
01:20:45.720
Maybe we'll have you come back and do something next time.
01:20:48.320
Other than that, people, y'all know how to contact me.
01:20:51.100
They all give y'all like the avenues to contact me.
01:20:55.660
And if you want me to come do some poetry, I got something for y'all.
01:20:58.880
We'll make sure that all your information is in there, dude.
01:21:03.900
