00:03:06.800 And the end of the year is here.

00:03:08.380 I can't believe it.

00:03:09.200 I can't believe that, um, that we got the end of the year already.

00:03:15.140 I just remember everything was kind of, it was a crazy year. 0.98

00:03:19.980 It started off, you know, shit was weird. 0.99

00:03:23.400 And then things got kind of trans or whatever. 0.99

00:03:25.620 And then suddenly it's Christmas.

00:03:29.360 And here we are.

00:03:30.520 We have some great Christmas music, too.

00:03:32.640 I want to just take a second so we can hear a couple of these tunes.

00:03:36.480 So we have them and just put us in the mood right here today.

00:03:39.500 At the end of 2024 right here.

00:03:42.780 Let's hear a little something.

00:03:43.760 And that's all this, um, that's Christmas bells by Mike Franklin.

00:03:59.340 And that's forever.

00:04:01.260 That's that autism Christmas, baby.

00:04:03.900 That Christism, baby.

00:04:05.200 Let's hear a little more of it.

00:04:06.260 And that's a little bit of Asian Christmas, too.

00:04:31.740 That's that Bobby Lee, uh, lunch whistle, baby. 0.99

00:04:35.280 You know what I'm saying?

00:04:36.460 That's that Bobby Lee mating call right there.

00:04:45.280 And you can see Bobby Lee just, just looking up in the distance behind a big stack of, um,

00:04:52.140 like a big rice wall or something.

00:04:56.460 Boy.

00:04:58.580 You can see him looking up.

00:05:01.780 Whoa.

00:05:02.220 And that's beautiful there right there.

00:05:06.040 It's called Christmas bells by Mike Franklin.

00:05:11.400 And you got to love music this time of year.

00:05:13.500 It's something that really keeps you together, keeps your mind together. 0.99

00:05:18.460 I'll put on a song sometimes if I can't, you know, if I can't handle shit, I'll damn put on a song. 1.00

00:05:25.400 And I'll put a pacifier in my ass and just pray to God. 0.99

00:05:29.520 Brother, let's hear one more song here. 1.00

00:05:32.400 And this is called Christmas Wonders by Howard Harper Barnes.

00:05:38.500 Amen.

00:05:38.900 And this sounds like rich people driving to shop or whatever, you know, and they're, the kid has clean hair, you know,

00:06:00.020 when the kid has clean hair and has a lunch that has a, a lunchbox that has actual lunch in it.

00:06:06.380 You know, I remember my lunchbox.

00:06:08.960 Sometimes it would just have a little piece of paper in there. 1.00

00:06:11.180 It would say, fuck you on it, you know, and then a piece of silverware in that bitch too. 1.00

00:06:16.500 So it'd make a, you know, it'd make that sound, that very industrial sound. 1.00

00:06:20.920 When you were running with it, you would hear the silverware in there. 0.98

00:06:23.800 And then you'd have a nice piece of paper in there or something like, get fucked, you know, or something like that inside of it. 0.98

00:06:33.600 Let's hear a little bit more. 0.99

00:06:41.660 Oh, we are rich.

00:06:45.200 We have gas in our car.

00:06:47.720 It's a Volvo.

00:06:48.500 Oh, late for the store, the mall.

00:06:53.380 It's closing.

00:06:56.580 Let's get some steak for the kids.

00:07:00.560 We're rich. 0.72

00:07:02.080 Bum, bum.

00:07:03.620 Are we almost out of gas? 1.00

00:07:05.180 Fuck no, we're not. 1.00

00:07:06.800 We're rich. 1.00

00:07:09.320 That's what that reminds me of. 0.99

00:07:11.000 Rich people going to the mall with their clean hair and shit and their kids or whatever. 1.00

00:07:18.500 That ain't the kind of, our shit was just like jingle bells. 1.00

00:07:22.340 You'd have some guy out there fucking smoking jingle bells. 0.99

00:07:28.480 Then he'd throw a fucking, and he'd throw a fucking mill of light against the wall. 1.00

00:07:37.580 He'd be like, where's your mother? 1.00

00:07:40.560 Where's your fucking mother? 1.00

00:07:44.600 Like, mom, who is that? 1.00

00:07:45.820 Mom, is that Santa?

00:07:46.660 Santa?

00:07:48.500 He'd be like, no, that's your, and it would be your dad or your stepdad or the mechanic

00:07:53.220 who y'all owed money to.

00:07:56.720 Dude, I remember the mechanic.

00:07:58.060 One time we owed him something. 0.99

00:07:59.720 He came and got that bitch right back off the car, bro. 1.00

00:08:03.080 I don't know if it was a damn spark plug or it was a motor joint or whatever. 1.00

00:08:07.820 It was a damn clevis clamp or something for a steering pendulum. 1.00

00:08:12.020 And he came and pulled that bitch right out of there, dude. 1.00

00:08:14.600 Yeah, that car barely worked after that. 0.99

00:08:17.160 You had to turn the radio up to get it to go left. 0.99

00:08:21.460 Every time that, if you wanted that bitch to go left, you had to fucking crank up some 1.00

00:08:25.360 Aerosmith and pray. 1.00

00:08:28.280 Some, two people had to be praying in the back.

00:08:30.400 It ran on four hands power.

00:08:33.980 You had to have four hands pushed together, praying straight to God, crank up that Aerosmith.

00:08:39.780 Bam, son.

00:08:40.780 90 degree right turn.

00:08:43.620 And that's how we did it back then.

00:08:46.100 And that's what that song reminds me of.

00:08:47.740 That's Christmas Wonders by Howard Harper Barnes.

00:08:51.600 Beautiful tune there to get you ready for the holidays.

00:08:56.700 Let me see what else we got here.

00:09:01.620 And this is a Christmas in the club.

00:09:58.380 That's a mildly urban tune, I believe there.

00:10:02.980 And that's Christmas House Music by Dylan Stitz.

00:10:06.460 All right.

00:10:08.220 And we may have one more Christmas tune here to bring you guys into the world, bro.

00:10:18.760 We got a little something right here.

00:11:30.120 At the end. 0.99

00:11:30.740 And everybody remembers.

00:11:32.980 This fellow I grew up with.

00:11:35.280 His son Rocky.

00:11:37.280 And he was mentally.

00:11:38.200 He was just.

00:11:42.180 Well, he wasn't mentally.

00:11:43.400 He was unmental.

00:11:45.200 Or, you know, he just.

00:11:46.300 His. 1.00

00:11:47.340 His shit was kind of. 1.00

00:11:50.700 You know, he was that fucking. 1.00

00:11:52.300 He was just the Lord's side item. 1.00

00:11:54.300 And he.

00:11:55.740 He.

00:11:56.420 But he had that thing on him.

00:12:01.800 Boy, Rocky. 1.00

00:12:02.520 Got that cock on him. 0.99

00:12:04.920 And I remember one year around the holidays. 0.99

00:12:06.660 Everybody was just shocked at the.

00:12:09.600 At the size of the stump on that.

00:12:12.920 Beautiful.

00:12:14.320 Young fella.

00:12:16.180 Even his father.

00:12:17.600 Even his father was.

00:12:18.620 And that's what it's.

00:12:20.280 That's what it's all about.

00:12:22.580 What's going on?

00:12:23.700 Sorry.

00:12:24.800 Don't know what I'm talking about.

00:12:26.160 We've just.

00:12:26.660 We're in the Christmas time of year.

00:12:29.300 And I want to thank.

00:12:31.380 The.

00:12:32.080 Everybody who's just listened to the podcast this year.

00:12:34.120 And made a part to be a part of it.

00:12:36.760 We.

00:12:37.640 You know.

00:12:38.240 We've.

00:12:39.480 Had the most.

00:12:43.640 Successful year.

00:12:45.200 As a podcast.

00:12:46.400 Depending on what you determine success by.

00:12:48.180 But.

00:12:48.800 We've had the most.

00:12:50.240 Prolific year.

00:12:50.980 I think.

00:12:51.880 You know.

00:12:52.340 And that's a blessing.

00:12:53.240 Just to have it like that.

00:12:57.080 And.

00:12:58.360 What's going on?

00:12:59.320 Today I got to go over to Vanderbilt University over there with coach Clark Lee.

00:13:05.480 And.

00:13:06.380 Hang out with some of the players over there.

00:13:09.920 And watch them practice.

00:13:11.240 They got a beautiful facility.

00:13:13.240 You know.

00:13:13.600 And it was just.

00:13:15.140 You know.

00:13:15.380 I felt lucky to be in the building.

00:13:16.760 This is an SEC football school.

00:13:18.540 And.

00:13:19.160 Just to watch them go.

00:13:20.620 And just how it all.

00:13:22.420 They have like the different periods for when like.

00:13:25.540 The team switch.

00:13:26.940 And.

00:13:27.180 And.

00:13:28.360 Practice different parts.

00:13:29.460 Of the game plan.

00:13:32.100 And different.

00:13:34.500 Formats.

00:13:34.980 And everything.

00:13:35.660 When the football format.

00:13:38.340 And.

00:13:38.720 Just so.

00:13:38.940 Just to witness all of that.

00:13:40.060 Was pretty awesome.

00:13:42.720 You know.

00:13:43.260 And just to be in.

00:13:44.600 In Nashville.

00:13:45.660 As that team is building.

00:13:46.880 And putting.

00:13:47.540 Really just putting that anchor down.

00:13:48.960 Baby.

00:13:49.160 This was the year that.

00:13:50.240 They really kind of.

00:13:51.080 I think.

00:13:51.380 Put that stamp win on the program.

00:13:54.060 And just a great season over there.

00:13:55.860 And.

00:13:57.020 So that was great.

00:13:58.460 Just to.

00:13:58.840 Just to go.

00:13:59.640 Get to do that.

00:14:00.700 And.

00:14:01.260 I wish them the best.

00:14:02.460 Over there against Georgia Tech.

00:14:04.900 With.

00:14:05.680 Diego Pavia.

00:14:09.500 That Latino ninja. 1.00

00:14:13.380 And that guy.

00:14:14.320 Just.

00:14:14.780 You know.

00:14:16.120 There's.

00:14:16.460 He is one of a kind man.

00:14:17.960 And that whole team is.

00:14:18.800 It's just.

00:14:19.280 They got a family over there.

00:14:21.060 And so.

00:14:21.460 I think that's what I like the most.

00:14:22.760 Just being able to be around a group of people.

00:14:24.700 And.

00:14:25.480 You know.

00:14:26.060 As you get older.

00:14:26.820 And as life changes.

00:14:27.820 You don't get a lot of groups.

00:14:28.820 Like that.

00:14:29.740 You don't get a lot of team.

00:14:31.240 Like that in your life as much.

00:14:33.400 So.

00:14:33.880 I think.

00:14:35.160 You know.

00:14:35.460 Even just to get to see that.

00:14:36.740 And be around it.

00:14:37.540 For just like.

00:14:38.060 We went over there for maybe an hour and a half.

00:14:39.980 Or something.

00:14:41.240 And.

00:14:42.640 Yeah.

00:14:43.120 It was just.

00:14:44.360 It was cool man.

00:14:45.280 I'm not trying to brag about it or anything.

00:14:47.400 And some.

00:14:48.060 You know.

00:14:48.360 But it was just.

00:14:48.980 I just thought it was.

00:14:50.300 It was just cool.

00:14:51.940 So.

00:14:52.420 Thankful to them.

00:21:58.380 London.

00:22:07.500 On January 1st.

00:22:08.560 January 1st.

00:22:09.240 And I say this.

00:22:10.340 You know.

00:22:10.640 I applaud this.

00:22:12.540 I have friends that work in pornography.

00:22:15.240 Or that do it.

00:22:16.160 And stuff like that.

00:22:16.860 And that's fine.

00:22:17.520 This is not a judgment against any of those people.

00:22:19.900 Or any people that are involved in sex work.

00:22:24.780 But no one in Florida will be able to access Porn hub.

00:22:27.400 The most traffic pornography website in the world.

00:22:29.480 As of January 1st.

00:22:30.540 And honestly.

00:22:31.120 I think that it's good.

00:22:33.420 You know. 0.98

00:22:34.020 I think watching porno.

00:22:39.720 It's not. 0.89

00:22:40.740 It's.

00:22:41.500 It makes.

00:22:42.260 For me.

00:22:42.580 It makes a lot of shame inside of me.

00:22:45.840 Anytime I'm busting myself out.

00:22:48.220 Or just.

00:22:48.840 You know.

00:22:49.380 Or you know.

00:22:50.400 Doing.

00:22:52.320 You know.

00:22:53.020 Anytime I'm just.

00:22:54.000 You know. 0.98

00:22:54.320 Just LARPing that freaking Ranger or whatever. 0.93

00:22:59.420 Or just making my body talk and do just. 0.97

00:23:03.600 You know.

00:23:04.180 Anytime I'm just.

00:23:06.680 Anytime I'm doing pornography.

00:23:08.240 I don't feel good about myself.

00:23:10.260 That's the truth.

00:23:12.120 I don't feel good about myself.

00:23:14.120 You know.

00:23:14.460 It makes me feel ashamed.

00:23:15.600 Kind of.

00:23:16.880 It makes me feel weak.

00:23:17.940 It makes me feel ashamed of myself.

00:23:21.140 And those aren't ways that I want to feel.

00:23:24.000 And.

00:23:25.120 I believe it takes away.

00:23:27.020 Because I've seen this happen with so many.

00:23:29.460 Of my friends.

00:23:30.860 And.

00:23:31.580 Myself.

00:23:32.560 I think it takes away.

00:23:34.520 Your desire to connect.

00:23:37.100 With the opposite sex. 1.00

00:23:38.840 You know.

00:23:39.060 And then like you go home.

00:23:40.240 And you don't have the energy for your wife. 0.53

00:23:42.000 You don't even have the attraction.

00:23:43.140 Because you.

00:23:43.600 You're basically just taking the attraction.

00:23:45.480 Out of your body.

00:23:47.840 You know.

00:23:48.500 God puts like magnets in our body.

00:23:50.320 Or mother nature. 0.90

00:23:51.340 Or God.

00:23:52.100 Or God.

00:23:52.820 Mother nature.

00:23:53.600 Whatever.

00:23:54.500 She keeps changing her name.

00:23:55.760 I have no idea.

00:23:57.220 But she's probably.

00:23:59.040 Just hiding.

00:23:59.860 You know.

00:24:00.060 Trying to hide from the courts.

00:24:01.060 Or whatever.

00:24:01.640 But she. 0.98

00:24:03.380 They.

00:24:04.000 And God.

00:24:04.660 Or whatever.

00:24:04.920 They put like a magnet in your body.

00:24:07.200 And that creates the attraction.

00:24:10.980 So when I'm taking all my energy.

00:24:12.540 And I'm putting it just into pornos.

00:24:14.120 On the internet.

00:24:14.720 Or whatever.

00:24:15.280 I'm just.

00:24:15.800 I'm just giving all of my energy.

00:24:18.780 My good.

00:24:19.860 A beautiful human nature energy.

00:24:23.160 I'm giving it away.

00:24:25.120 You know.

00:24:27.020 And.

00:24:28.200 And then it makes me feel ashamed.

00:24:29.640 It makes me feel just.

00:24:31.280 It doesn't make me feel good.

00:24:32.560 That's what I'll say.

00:24:33.640 And so I don't want to do that.

00:24:34.800 And so.

00:24:35.820 I'm glad that.

00:24:37.500 They're starting to crack down.

00:24:39.940 And.

00:24:40.920 And not.

00:24:41.400 They're starting to.

00:24:42.120 But we.

00:24:42.540 We.

00:24:42.800 We need some help.

00:24:43.820 I think.

00:24:44.880 That's what I think.

00:24:46.020 I think we need some help.

00:24:47.700 Yes.

00:24:47.920 People should be able to watch.

00:24:49.160 Whatever they want.

00:24:50.080 Or look at whatever they want.

00:24:51.940 But also.

00:24:52.940 I don't think we should just let things.

00:24:56.000 Everything just be available.

00:24:58.420 I don't think so.

00:25:00.960 And some people might say.

00:25:02.440 Well that's like communism or something.

00:25:04.180 I don't know.

00:25:04.640 That's like a restriction.

00:25:05.740 That's fine.

00:25:07.340 Look.

00:25:08.200 I've.

00:25:09.540 Watched enough. 0.99

00:25:10.420 Porno. 0.98

00:25:11.260 Porno to know. 1.00

00:25:13.340 That you don't.

00:25:14.500 You don't need it.

00:25:15.280 Now it's easy for me to say.

00:25:16.420 Because I got to see some of it.

00:25:17.780 But.

00:25:18.580 You know.

00:25:18.860 And I'll sit around a fire.

00:25:19.980 And tell you what it was like.

00:25:20.960 If that's what you need.

00:25:21.760 But.

00:25:22.920 But I'm happy.

00:25:23.720 I think we need to go back to the days of drawings.

00:25:25.560 You have to sneak in.

00:25:26.800 You know.

00:25:27.300 Sneak into your brother's room.

00:25:28.420 And sneak a drawing of some cooter out. 1.00

00:25:30.280 From under a fucking aquarium. 0.99

00:25:31.880 And it's a little bit wet. 0.99

00:25:33.040 And it's got some fish flakes on it.

00:25:34.500 Or whatever.

00:25:35.460 On the.

00:25:37.540 Sketch.

00:25:38.540 But that's how you get it.

00:25:40.920 You know.

00:25:41.500 So I think there needs to be a little more.

00:25:42.860 More barrier to entry.

00:25:45.260 In the sex.

00:25:47.240 Yeah. 0.81

00:25:47.780 And look.

00:25:48.660 That's how I feel about it.

00:25:50.000 And that's okay.

00:25:50.520 If you feel differently.

00:25:51.780 But I've watched it have an effect on my own life.

00:25:54.120 And I.

00:25:54.600 And I'm.

00:25:56.160 I'm glad it won't be as accessible.

00:25:58.260 I think.

00:25:59.480 And.

00:26:00.620 That's okay.

00:26:01.320 If you feel differently.

00:26:02.760 I'm not saying what I feel is right.

00:26:05.240 And that's okay.

00:26:06.680 Um.

00:26:07.440 But I'm just tired of like.

00:26:08.940 I feel like it takes your masculinity.

00:26:10.660 It's trying to.

00:26:12.200 And it's like.

00:26:13.660 These systems that use these algorithms against us.

00:26:16.680 It knows.

00:26:18.200 It knows you're addicted to it.

00:26:19.800 So it's like.

00:26:20.240 I'm going to serve you that addiction right here. 0.65

00:26:22.320 And it is up to ourselves.

00:26:23.740 To be able to prevent ourselves from looking at it.

00:26:26.700 I agree.

00:26:27.680 But.

00:26:29.840 It's easier for me not to do cocaine.

00:26:31.480 If somebody isn't just.

00:26:32.760 If every time I open my window.

00:26:36.180 There's somebody not right there with some cocaine.

00:26:42.920 So.

00:26:43.480 That's all I'm saying.

00:27:29.260 And more.

00:27:30.140 Here's what I love about prize picks.

00:27:32.800 Instead of choosing teams.

00:27:33.840 You choose individual players.

00:27:35.820 That's how they do it.

00:27:37.220 Each player has a set projection.

00:27:39.380 And you choose more or less than that set projection.

00:27:43.700 It's simple.

00:27:45.000 So for example.

00:27:45.700 If you think Tyrese Halliburton.

00:27:48.040 Is going to score more than 20 points.

00:27:50.560 You'll choose that.

00:27:52.080 While if you think Nikola Jokic.

00:27:55.240 Is going to score less than 16 rebounds.

00:27:58.660 You'll choose that.

00:28:00.020 If you're smart with sports.

00:28:01.340 And you know what players are going to perform on what nights.

00:30:58.780 Because, you know, I got my K-dub out already.

00:31:01.780 I got them in the living room.

00:31:04.460 That's my little angel.

00:31:05.720 Oh, they said they put this one right near the Barbies.

00:31:10.080 This Cat Williams is trying to meet a white girl.

00:31:12.140 Look at this one.

00:31:14.380 A Cat Williams somebody put.

00:31:17.000 Gang, baby. 0.75

00:31:17.760 That's one.

00:31:18.860 And then, whoa, whoa.

00:31:20.880 This one off that scissor, baby. 1.00

00:31:22.800 This one has been sipping, boy.

00:31:25.680 Wow.

00:31:26.080 Oh, this one definitely on the clock hiding at work.

00:31:29.360 I've seen this one before.

00:31:31.560 Dang.

00:31:33.960 This one off that henny, baby. 1.00

00:31:35.880 Damn, boy. 0.99

00:31:38.000 Let's see one right here. 1.00

00:31:38.860 Oh, this one hiding, too.

00:31:40.040 I've seen this one at work at lunch hiding out in between a couple boxes or whatever.

00:31:46.400 And this one got a little eight ball on him, too.

00:31:48.580 What is that?

00:31:48.960 A eight ball?

00:31:49.520 No, what is that thing called, Trevin?

00:31:54.580 Snow globe?

00:31:55.180 Snow globe.

00:31:56.720 Thank you.

00:31:58.480 But, yeah, and then this one right here.

00:31:59.940 Sketch sent me this one.

00:32:01.160 There's one.

00:32:02.380 And that's Cat Williams and Cam Newton hanging out right there.

00:32:12.740 We caught them on the edge of the store over there by the appliance area.

00:32:18.600 Air conditioning, HVAC, all that.

00:32:20.340 So, they over there mingling or whatever, talking shop.

00:32:25.840 Okay, what else we got?

00:32:27.220 We got some more art.

00:32:29.600 TikTok is on the verge of getting banned.

00:32:32.000 The Supreme Court will hear arguments over the law that could ban TikTok in the U.S. if it's not sold.

00:32:38.220 Who is the owner of TikTok?

00:32:39.680 I want to see if he would come on here.

00:32:41.660 I think it's Chow Shane or something. 0.78

00:32:43.500 I think it's Chow Shane. 0.95

00:32:48.880 Chow Zichu? 1.00

00:32:50.960 Oh, shit. 1.00

00:32:56.840 Yeah, Chow Zichu. 1.00

00:32:58.540 Chow Zichu. 0.97

00:33:00.000 Yeah, we got to get him in here because I want to know what the truth is.

00:33:02.880 And I would like to say to you, Chow Zichu, if you're willing to come on, maybe we would love to have you in here. 0.97

00:33:08.060 Just to learn a little bit about it right here.

00:33:10.080 The Supreme Court said it will hear arguments next month over the constitutionality of the federal law that could ban TikTok in the United States if its Chinese parent company doesn't sell it.

00:33:19.520 The law enacted in April said a January 19th deadline for TikTok could be sold or else face a ban in the United States.

00:33:27.420 The popular social media platform has more than 170 million users in the U.S.

00:33:34.200 The high court will also hear arguments from content creators who rely on the platform for income and some TikTok users.

00:33:41.460 President-elect Donald Trump, who once supported a ban but then pledged during the campaign to save TikTok, has said his administration would take a look at the situation.

00:33:49.520 Trump met with TikTok's CEO, Chow Zichu, on Friday.

00:33:57.460 The case pits free speech rights against the government's stated aims of protecting national security.

00:34:02.800 The government ain't protecting national security.

00:34:05.120 I think at this point we can all recognize they don't really have our security in their sights.

00:34:15.600 You know what I'm saying?

00:34:16.260 They don't want somebody getting your information off TikTok, but they'll let somebody just come across the willy-nilly, come into the country.

00:34:27.420 Willy-nilly.

00:34:28.240 And I say that only because we've met with border patrol agents and that's the truth.

00:34:33.800 There's no – you can sugarcoat it any way you want.

00:34:36.540 So, I don't believe that.

00:34:38.960 I believe that they don't want people sharing the truth about the genocide in Palestine and that's why that they're doing it.

00:34:48.280 I believe that that's what it is.

00:34:50.620 And TikTok is one of those places where people can still do that and they want to own it.

00:34:57.860 They want to own it, dude.

00:35:00.540 Suppressing.

00:35:01.640 Yes, suppressing.

00:35:02.520 Thank you so much.

00:35:03.720 Yes, and I think – yeah.

00:35:05.620 I mean – and people say – thank you.

00:35:09.420 And people say like, well, we don't want China to have our information.

00:35:14.340 All these – they all have our – what are they – I don't understand what that means, you know?

00:35:19.640 Like, what do you have my information?

00:35:22.160 I have like six pieces of information.

00:35:24.260 There's no way you don't have them.

00:35:26.340 I've put them into some of the probably shadiest sites on the web.

00:35:31.800 You got them.

00:35:33.680 You know?

00:35:34.300 I don't even – people have our information.

00:35:36.460 What do you – I'm scared they're going to get my DoorDash order.

00:35:39.400 They've got – they have our information.

00:35:44.500 So, then it's just what don't they want us to see, right?

00:35:47.860 What don't they want us to see?

00:35:50.120 Because if they can control what they – what we see, they'll control what we know.

00:35:55.900 Or what we believe, maybe.

00:35:57.560 I don't know.

00:35:58.140 Do I sound crazy?

00:35:58.880 I don't know.

00:36:01.520 Doesn't matter.

00:36:04.180 While both are – and there is a – and there's a difference between the TikTok in China and the TikTok in USA.

00:36:09.600 While both – it says right here, while both are owned by the same company, ByteDance, TikTok in China,

00:36:15.220 called Douyin, Douyin, D-O-U-Y-I-N, Douyin, is significantly different from the version available in America.

00:36:23.460 With a much stricter focus on child-friendly content, including educational videos and stricter time limits due to stricter Chinese government regulations regarding online content for minors.

00:36:34.280 Whereas the American version is considered more open and has a wider variety of content with less restrictions on viewing time.

00:36:40.880 It's more open as a wider variety of – so I understand like they want to keep – like the Chinese government probably keeps theirs more informative.

00:36:52.240 And then, you know, America is just – we like the fat.

00:36:55.040 We like the funny.

00:36:55.980 You know, it's just like we don't want to learn as much.

00:36:58.040 It's not as much of our nature, a lot of us, you know, we're more tempted by the other stuff.

00:37:05.320 And so that's what we kind of consume and enjoy.

00:37:09.900 But that seems like a crazy – but I just don't buy the content.

00:37:13.640 I just don't buy that they're getting – going to get our information.

00:37:16.460 What are you going to get, my shoe size?

00:37:17.820 What are you going to get, my address in college or something?

00:37:20.900 You know, what are you going to get?

00:37:23.100 What vitamins?

00:37:24.220 I'm taking – what are you going to get?

00:37:24.960 That's what – it's like, you know, we don't – they're going to get our – what information?

00:37:31.940 I can't think of anything that I haven't already put into a computer probably.

00:37:36.920 So I think they have our information.

00:37:38.840 But what do I know, dude? 0.98

00:37:39.760 I don't fucking know, dude. 0.99

00:37:41.760 I'll smoke a bag of my own in nuts, homie. 1.00

00:37:45.460 I don't give a shit, boy. 1.00

00:37:47.480 I will eat the fucking shingles off your house. 1.00

00:37:51.560 Yeah, I will. 1.00

00:37:52.700 All right, what else do we have?

00:37:55.760 We got some calls that came in.

00:37:56.780 Any more news?

00:37:58.460 Oh, Columbus Funeral Home, the first operating in America with a liquor license.

00:38:03.460 Columbus, Ohio, a north side funeral home, could soon serve mourners in a new way.

00:38:09.260 Alcohol.

00:38:10.120 Wow.

00:38:10.560 Welcome to Ireland. 0.67

00:38:12.660 That's what we're talking about.

00:38:14.480 Funerals.

00:38:14.960 Evergreen Funeral Cremation and Reception is set to open next year.

00:38:20.500 They apply for a liquor license and could soon be serving people during services.

00:38:25.640 That's nice.

00:38:26.300 The mission is to make the process of a very difficult time a little easier.

00:38:30.440 My role in this position is to be kind of a party planner for the dead.

00:38:33.780 That's what Hunter Triplett told WSYX.

00:38:38.560 Triplett wants to shed the business's reputation of being dark and morbid by offering manageable prices and the option for mourners to raise a toast to a lost loved one with a bar.

00:38:48.640 That's fair.

00:38:49.840 Interesting.

00:38:50.440 We will be serving alcohol when people are on the premises and remain on the premises.

00:38:56.400 Yeah, because imagine that.

00:38:57.640 Somebody leaves a funeral, car accident, deceased.

00:39:01.180 So these people are kind of, I don't know what that's called, double dipping or whatever.

00:39:07.100 It seems like it.

00:39:09.600 So, but hey, that's the kind of America we should, you know.

00:39:15.360 But we got to ban TikTok because it's getting your information.

00:39:18.800 Um, what else?

00:39:24.280 Oh, New York considering special hotline just for CEOs to report alleged threats to their safety after the Brian Thompson killing.

00:39:33.880 Um, for those of you who do not know it, Brian Thompson was the, um, he was the matriarch or whatever.

00:39:41.460 The Brian Thompson, not, that's not the right word.

00:39:43.600 He was the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, I believe it's called, UnitedHealthcare.

00:39:50.540 He was gunned down in the middle of Manhattan earlier this month.

00:39:54.300 Um, and so New York Governor Kathy Hockle is considering creating a special hotline just for CEOs to report alleged threats to their safety.

00:40:05.220 A hotline, a hotline, that sounds like some CEO is going to call a hotline.

00:40:13.400 I think they know now, like they should all, they would all call it because it feels like they just got, they, now there's no point in the hotline.

00:40:21.600 You got it.

00:40:22.120 They, there's the, the threat to the safety is there.

00:40:24.560 You know, somebody had been popping off.

00:40:27.740 Somebody pulled that Draco out on somebody, you know, because they wouldn't do the, you know, they was, um, wrenching somebody's mother over to medical bills and stuff.

00:40:38.740 You knew it was going to happen.

00:40:40.320 I feel like, and I feel like this is where we're starting to get in society where you're going to start to see vigilantism.

00:40:48.860 Now, some people can just say it's murder.

00:40:51.080 Some people can say it's vigilantism.

00:40:53.300 You know, and it could be both.

00:40:56.420 That's the thing as well.

00:40:58.940 Um, but you're just going to see, yeah, at a certain point, that's going to happen.

00:41:06.140 You know, you're seeing people take things into their hands because institutions like the government or, um, won't do it.

00:41:15.420 That's what you're starting to see.

00:41:16.580 You're seeing it everywhere.

00:41:17.440 You know, you started to see it during COVID when, um, Dave Portanoi was handed, they were helping out, uh, they were helping out small businesses.

00:41:28.860 While the government, while COVID people were, they were shutting them down.

00:41:33.680 Um, so you started to see private people or regular people taking action to, uh, do things that you would think that the, your government would do.

00:41:43.920 Right.

00:41:44.300 And I think at a certain point, you would think that your government would keep you safe from, um, toxic insurance programs.

00:41:55.060 And they aren't, um, medical debt is the leading cause of bankruptcy in America.

00:42:03.400 So you think about the stress and all that causes, it's, it's horrible.

00:42:08.260 It's horrible.

00:42:09.500 But meanwhile, we have billions of dollars to give somewhere else. 1.00

00:42:12.960 It's just fucking people are sick of things. 0.98

00:42:15.040 And, uh, then you start to see people take things into their own hands that their government should be doing for them. 0.99

00:42:22.160 So how do you guys feel about vigilantism or, you know, I don't, is that a crazy thing to say?

00:42:28.120 I mean, obviously it is murder.

00:42:29.560 It is a crime.

00:42:30.420 So that is no doubt, but sometimes there are crimes that people do because, um, they don't, there's no choice.

00:42:45.540 You know, we give that excuse when people rob a, uh, uh, uh, Shoney's or whatever, or you rob a, uh, taco, uh, Vesper or whatever. 0.99

00:42:57.460 Uh, uh, some guy selling fucking Mexican off of the back of a damn, um, bird scooter or whatever. 1.00

00:43:05.000 Some fucking lime, some fucking little lime monster, you know, slinging that shit, homes, you know, slinging that shit. 1.00

00:43:13.300 But anyway, I'm fucking rambling. 1.00

00:43:16.260 I think I'm getting a little bit into the news, but I'm just interested. 0.98

00:43:18.380 I'm interested.

00:43:18.900 What do you guys think about vigilante-ism?

00:43:21.020 Do you think this is just murder?

00:43:23.300 Do you think that we're going to see more of that as time goes on? 0.99

00:43:27.640 Um, yeah, because at some point if something bends enough, the fucking shit's going to start to get weird. 1.00

00:43:33.400 And I kind of, I like weird shit. 1.00

00:43:36.020 You know what I'm saying? 1.00

00:43:38.260 I like weird shit, bro. 1.00

00:43:40.620 I've been involved in some misconnections with the devil, brother. 1.00

00:43:46.380 Um, but I, I love how the government thinks a hotline is going to help, bitch. 1.00

00:43:52.180 That's the same thing you gave to people that were having problems with the insurance company in the first place. 0.95

00:43:58.020 You gave them a, call a hotline. 0.99

00:44:00.520 Motherfucker, his mom, your mom's, mom's been on, on hold with insurance for two hours. 1.00

00:44:09.220 Now she got to call another hotline to complain about it. 1.00

00:44:12.320 Get fucked. 1.00

00:44:14.020 That's what I say, bro. 1.00

00:44:16.740 That's what I say. 0.99

00:44:19.300 And when, when, when people start to realize the truth, bro, shit gets, it's, that's wild. 0.99

00:44:26.740 That's what I say, man. 1.00

00:44:28.740 Damn, that shit got me agitated. 1.00

00:44:30.520 And I'm between insurance companies right now, so I better calm down, dude. 1.00

00:44:35.120 And that's the truth.

00:44:35.740 I think my new policy goes in on the, uh, first or whatever.

00:44:39.620 So anyway, let's get to some calls, man.

00:44:41.380 Sorry I've been rambling. 0.93

00:44:42.300 I know I've been kind of vocal about shit, but maybe I'm not sorry. 0.59

00:44:44.940 I don't give a, I don't know what I'm doing, dude. 0.94

00:44:47.020 I don't know. 0.98

00:44:48.060 It's been a long year and shit does make me agitated sometimes. 0.99

00:44:51.420 I've had three coffees today. 0.99

00:44:53.360 You know, I watched a SEC team play football.

00:44:56.520 I'm feeling hyped.

00:44:59.960 Um, we got a video call in right here that came in.

00:45:05.740 As always, the hotline is 985-664-9503.

00:45:10.360 And there's, uh, you can submit videos as well through the websites.

00:45:14.320 Here we go.

00:45:15.340 You want potty?

00:45:16.660 And what'd you say after that?

00:45:18.100 Gang, gang! 0.99

00:45:19.480 Gang, gang.

00:45:20.300 Maybe there's a young kid right there.

00:45:22.540 And if he potties or whatever, if he does pissing or does, uh, booty work, they let him say gang, gang.

00:45:29.160 And that's beautiful.

00:45:30.300 Praise God.

00:45:30.980 Good to see these young fellas.

00:45:32.160 Um, right here, uh, what up, Theo?

00:45:39.280 My name is Dallas.

00:45:40.720 What's up, Dallas?

00:45:41.880 Good to see, uh, good to hear you, brother.

00:45:44.420 Let's hear more.

00:45:45.440 I'm driving home right now.

00:45:47.260 What I do for a living is I set up Christmas lights for people.

00:45:50.860 So some might call me a spreader of joy.

00:45:54.720 You know, I'm a joy spreader.

00:45:56.480 Spread that holiday greeting.

00:45:58.460 Okay, brother.

00:45:59.240 Thank you.

00:45:59.700 Yeah.

00:46:00.300 And putting the lights up.

00:46:01.580 I looked into it.

00:46:02.340 It's a little pricey.

00:46:03.120 I looked into it.

00:46:04.600 It's a little pricey.

00:46:05.760 I'd rather just get home and wish they were up for about a month.

00:46:09.700 And then just, then it's January or whatever.

00:46:12.740 But I do feel you.

00:46:14.120 And I get jealous when I see homes that have them up.

00:46:17.440 And when I, if I get a wife next year, I don't work as much.

00:46:20.100 I'm gonna put some up.

00:46:21.820 But onward, man.

00:46:22.780 I'm sorry.

00:46:23.100 I'm making this about me, brother.

00:46:24.200 Let's hear more.

00:46:25.500 But what I'm, what I'm trying to get to is that, you know, I do it all morning.

00:46:31.580 All night long.

00:46:32.580 Sometimes I'm getting home at three in the morning and doing that again at seven in the

00:46:37.460 morning.

00:46:37.960 So it's long days.

00:46:40.420 Yeah, brother.

00:46:41.540 Well, you can't, you know, if you're trying to change the whole mood of a neighborhood,

00:46:45.560 it's going to take time, man.

00:46:46.840 You know what I'm saying?

00:46:50.120 Romano's macaroni grill wasn't built in a day or whatever they say, man.

00:46:54.360 I don't know what that saying is.

00:46:55.560 Onward.

00:46:56.400 And I feel like I'm giving all the joy, but I don't have the joy being replenished within

00:47:05.060 my, my temple, my body.

00:47:07.520 So I don't know.

00:47:09.240 I just, what, what is your advice on how to, I'll tell you how you got to do a little

00:47:14.140 peep in time and maybe you're right there.

00:47:16.860 You're right there, brother.

00:47:19.600 You know what I'm saying?

00:47:20.560 You're right there.

00:47:21.120 The devil just put you on the window sill, boy. 0.99

00:47:25.680 You elf on a shelf of lust, brother. 0.92

00:47:27.960 You got an excuse to be on the ladder.

00:47:31.420 You know how hard it is to climb up that ladder with no excuse to be in someone's yard, brother?

00:47:37.820 And you just tell them you're bird watching or something. 0.99

00:47:40.260 You're just staring into their fucking window. 0.99

00:47:45.100 Yeah, dude, you have, you're getting paid to peep in time, brother. 1.00

00:47:48.540 What are you talking about?

00:47:50.160 Change your attitude.

00:47:51.800 Start lurking and slurping, homie. 1.00

00:47:53.920 You know what I'm saying?

00:47:55.300 Get tipped out big, dog.

00:47:57.320 You feel me?

00:47:58.320 Skrrt.

00:48:01.420 How much is that doggie in the window? 0.99

00:48:05.340 Rarf, rarf.

00:48:06.560 Get over there and get you some, boy.

00:48:09.400 Oh, with that ladder, boy.

00:48:11.460 Get out there, brother.

00:48:13.360 You know what I'm saying?

00:48:14.420 Skrrt.

00:48:15.540 Skrrt.

00:48:15.620 Skrrt.

00:48:16.400 Slurp, daddy.

00:48:17.700 All right.

00:48:18.460 Let's hear another call that is coming about Christmas.

00:48:23.380 Hi, Theo.

00:48:24.400 It's Destiny from Mississippi.

00:48:26.420 Hey, Stephanie from Mississippi over there. 1.00

00:48:29.220 And I'll be going to Natchez, Mississippi, actually, for a night to spend time with some

00:48:36.280 family that I used to live with over there.

00:48:39.400 My buddy Richard Sharp, his family.

00:48:42.100 And I'm just blessed to get to see them again.

00:48:46.740 Gang, onward.

00:48:47.340 I'm sitting here, racking my brain, trying to figure out what I should get my eight-year-old

00:48:54.280 son for Christmas.

00:48:55.860 I mean, you were a boy once.

00:48:57.600 You were eight once.

00:48:58.680 So, yeah.

00:49:00.360 I just wanted to know your thoughts about that.

00:49:02.620 Thank you, man.

00:49:03.360 Love you.

00:49:03.840 Bye.

00:49:04.740 Love you, too.

00:49:05.620 Thank you so much for calling.

00:49:06.680 That's a good question.

00:49:07.640 What do you get an eight-year-old boy?

00:49:09.620 Hmm.

00:49:09.920 And he's just a boy, probably.

00:49:11.320 I wonder how tall he is.

00:49:12.520 How long is an eight-year-old?

00:49:14.020 Let me look that up really quick.

00:49:21.540 How long is an eight-year-old soccer game? 1.00

00:49:23.840 Fuck what? 1.00

00:49:27.220 That's ridiculous. 1.00

00:49:28.040 Who's looking up that shit? 1.00

00:49:29.060 It says between 47 and 54 inches tall. 1.00

00:49:33.360 Shit. 1.00

00:49:33.860 How long is that? 1.00

00:49:34.820 How long is that?

00:49:41.320 How much is that?

00:49:42.340 50 feet, or sorry, 50 inches is four feet.

00:49:44.940 Okay, so we're looking at four feet tall.

00:49:46.940 Something that's four feet tall.

00:49:48.240 What do you get it? 1.00

00:49:50.280 Fuck, that's a damn wiener, dog. 1.00

00:49:52.140 It's, you know, that you got living with you. 1.00

00:49:57.540 Yeah, an eight-year-old.

00:49:59.160 You know what?

00:49:59.620 I think there was some things my mom would get us

00:50:02.160 that were fun things,

00:50:03.600 but then she would get us things that were like

00:50:05.520 kind of creative, like thinking things as well.

00:50:09.620 You know, and I really liked that.

00:50:10.780 Like, we would get, like, puzzles

00:50:12.380 or different type of stuff, clay.

00:50:18.700 One year, we didn't have any money.

00:50:20.100 My mom got us a couple,

00:50:22.180 she got us everybody these two-liter sodas,

00:50:24.260 these big old and big dog. 0.99

00:50:25.940 You remember them bitches? 1.00

00:50:27.480 When they first came out with them bitches. 1.00

00:50:29.280 And one year, they came out with a damn three-liter soda. 1.00

00:50:31.900 Bring that bitch up. 1.00

00:50:32.840 God dang, boy. 1.00

00:50:37.060 When they, bro, you rolled into my neighborhood 1.00

00:50:39.080 with a fucking three-liter soda, bro. 1.00

00:50:42.240 We right here. 1.00

00:50:46.840 You don't want it anyway.

00:50:50.040 We right here.

00:50:53.940 We ready. 1.00

00:50:56.140 Bro, that bitch was a gangbanger. 1.00

00:51:01.740 So that, you know, that's the kind of shit 1.00

00:51:04.040 I'd get that little bastard a three-liter soda, baby. 1.00

00:51:07.480 Shake that bitch up. 1.00

00:51:09.880 But I think also some jewelry, 1.00

00:51:11.960 get him something, man.

00:51:13.520 I'm going to ice my family out

00:51:15.960 probably with some stuff from Kohl's

00:51:17.500 or maybe some backwoods shirts 0.99

00:51:22.500 or whatever, you know, different shit. 0.99

00:51:25.600 What is it called? 0.99

00:51:26.620 Full body fits.

00:51:28.200 Maybe some backwoods fits or something.

00:51:31.180 So yeah, I think, but that an eight-year-old,

00:51:33.180 I like something though that he has to think

00:51:35.340 or something you can also maybe do with him.

00:51:38.080 There's got to be like a fun,

00:51:39.460 like a good game or something.

00:51:41.980 Or a shovel too.

00:51:44.020 Or a treasure map.

00:51:45.920 Get him like a something.

00:51:49.640 Maybe hide something for him

00:51:51.220 and get him that treasure.

00:51:54.780 Get him a treasure, a shovel.

00:52:00.340 Treasure getter.

00:52:01.760 Because yeah, then you have him dig up something

00:52:03.760 and maybe it's nothing, right?

00:52:05.720 But oh well, that's life, huh?

00:52:08.100 That's life, shorty.

00:52:09.040 Better learn it now.

00:52:10.940 Work hard, bro. 0.99

00:52:11.860 You ain't getting shit. 0.99

00:52:13.260 But no, I think also a big hug. 0.99

00:52:17.520 Maybe take him to a nice movie.

00:52:20.220 Ooh, what about this?

00:52:22.000 What if you get him like a gift card

00:52:23.380 to a movie theater

00:52:24.740 and then he gets to pick out some movies

00:52:26.560 he wants to go see?

00:52:28.080 So maybe that could be something

00:52:29.140 where you get to read the movies to him

00:52:30.940 and be like, well, these are the movies

00:52:32.700 they have for your age

00:52:33.880 and then he gets to pick one and choose it.

00:52:36.540 And then it's him making a choice

00:52:38.120 and feeling like he has a choice

00:52:40.600 in if you guys get to spend time together or not.

00:52:43.500 I think that would have been something

00:52:44.720 that I probably would have enjoyed, you know?

00:52:46.700 Or, you know, my mom took me to Wendy's once

00:52:49.940 when we were kids and I remember that.

00:52:52.560 And that's nice.

00:52:55.160 That was something nice as well.

00:52:57.960 Destiny is that lady's name. 0.99

00:53:01.240 And yeah, and just Merry Christmas

00:53:02.820 to you and your son.

00:53:04.200 I'm glad you guys get to do some fun stuff together.

00:53:06.540 What's something else?

00:53:08.220 I think something like that is nice

00:53:09.640 where he gets a say-so in it

00:53:11.100 and then it's a choice he made.

00:53:12.860 So that kind of builds up his ability

00:53:15.820 to think and ask like,

00:53:18.560 okay, well, what are the choices, right?

00:53:20.900 Maybe.

00:53:21.440 What do I know?

00:53:22.420 Eight-year-old kid might not,

00:53:23.400 he might, you know,

00:53:24.800 he might want to just sip trank or whatever 1.00

00:53:27.340 and sit in a fucking sedan in the parking lot. 0.99

00:53:29.980 I have no idea what kids are doing now. 1.00

00:53:34.900 Here, we got a call that came in right here.

00:53:36.540 There's always a hotline,

00:53:37.240 985-664-9503.

00:53:40.540 What's up, Theo?

00:53:41.360 This is Wells from South Carolina.

00:53:43.260 I had a question for you.

00:53:44.260 I was just wondering,

00:53:45.040 me and my buddies went to a casino up here,

00:53:47.140 Kings Mountain,

00:53:47.940 one of the Native American casinos.

00:53:50.080 You guys went to a Native American casino.

00:53:52.940 Okay, thank you.

00:53:54.240 I was just astounded

00:53:55.780 by the amount of Asians here,

00:53:58.220 not to be racist or anything,

00:53:59.440 but like the amount-

00:54:00.540 It's not racist to see Asians, brother.

00:54:02.300 Let me tell you that.

00:54:03.620 It's not racist to see Asians.

00:54:05.460 You see Asians,

00:54:06.260 what are you going to do?

00:54:08.660 Not see them or whatever?

00:54:09.980 Pretend you're, you know,

00:54:11.400 rip your eyes out of your head? 0.93

00:54:14.160 No, it's okay to see Asians, brother. 0.97

00:54:17.180 Let's see more.

00:54:18.520 Sorry, let's hear more.

00:54:19.680 The amount of Asians that were at this casino 0.98

00:54:23.400 were just insane, dude.

00:54:26.460 I mean, you know, it was pretty cool.

00:54:28.740 But have you ever experienced

00:54:30.140 that Asians are prolific gamblers? 0.95

00:54:32.980 Yeah, I've seen a lot of that, man.

00:54:34.540 Hai Dala!

00:54:35.620 The one guy was yelling, I remember.

00:54:37.240 There was a, um,

00:54:39.020 it was a basketball or something.

00:54:41.060 I remember walking through a casino one time

00:54:43.140 and then an Asian fellow over there,

00:54:45.060 Hai Dala!

00:54:46.160 Hai Dala!

00:54:47.300 He kept yelling.

00:54:48.160 Hai Dala!

00:54:48.720 And, uh,

00:54:52.720 yeah, they love it.

00:54:53.660 Asians like that risk. 1.00

00:54:54.820 They like the fucking risk, man. 1.00

00:54:59.300 Because I think Asians, 1.00

00:55:00.760 they just, they like the, um,

00:55:04.160 they like the risk,

00:55:05.700 they like the smoke.

00:55:06.960 They like the smoke

00:55:08.020 and they like the risk, you know.

00:55:10.220 Hey, what's up, you know?

00:55:15.400 Hey, I'm Asian! 0.99

00:55:16.580 So, yeah, dude, they fucking, 0.99

00:55:19.900 yeah, Asians, bro. 0.99

00:55:21.160 Hey, what are you doing, huh?

00:55:22.820 I'm gambling!

00:55:24.040 Hey! 0.99

00:55:26.040 You know? 1.00

00:55:27.600 So, yeah, Asians love that shit, bro. 1.00

00:55:30.180 Hey, bro, put four Asians in a box. 1.00

00:55:32.200 What do you got?

00:55:34.960 A little, uh,

00:55:35.620 it's people that gamble.

00:55:36.740 Praise God, baby.

00:55:42.000 Um,

00:55:42.620 here we go.

00:55:44.980 We got a call that came in right here.

00:55:46.620 Onward.

00:55:47.520 Hey, Theo Vaughn.

00:55:48.680 My name is Miles.

00:55:49.700 I have a brother.

00:55:51.460 Hey, Miles,

00:55:52.400 and thank you for calling,

00:55:53.220 and I'm glad that you have a brother, man.

00:55:55.440 Let's hear some more. 0.97

00:55:56.200 Is that ex really gay? 0.88

00:55:57.980 How do I ask him

00:55:59.280 if he's gay 0.97

00:56:01.260 without pissing him off? 0.92

00:56:04.820 Thank you, bro.

00:56:06.000 Well, I think you could do it in a gift way,

00:56:08.460 you know?

00:56:09.180 You could do it in a, um,

00:56:11.260 in a gift way.

00:56:13.940 Like a note or something.

00:56:14.960 Like a, you hide it,

00:56:15.620 you put a note in a package,

00:56:16.960 a little note or, you know,

00:56:18.060 and you write it, draw it or whatever,

00:56:19.460 and it say, um,

00:56:20.740 and it says,

00:56:22.540 it says like,

00:56:23.080 are you,

00:56:24.400 and then it just,

00:56:25.460 it has like two guys hugging or whatever,

00:56:27.340 you know?

00:56:28.260 Um,

00:56:30.020 but then he's just gonna think,

00:56:31.140 he's gonna think

00:56:31.720 that you,

00:56:32.780 that he's just,

00:56:33.500 you're just asking if he's in the Navy

00:56:34.860 or whatever.

00:56:35.340 So you got,

00:56:36.000 I'm trying to think of how do you do it?

00:56:41.600 I think you just gotta tickle him or not 0.97

00:56:43.940 until he tells you if he's gay or not. 0.97

00:56:45.600 That's what my uncle would do. 0.52

00:56:48.160 You just, 1.00

00:56:48.800 because of gay, 0.96

00:56:51.080 you know, 0.96

00:56:52.340 because that's how you even get gay. 0.99

00:56:54.020 Somebody just tickles you so damn much. 1.00

00:56:55.760 Your whole spirit just kind of fucking, 0.99

00:56:57.440 just spoils into just wanting 0.99

00:57:00.860 to meet some guys somewhere.

00:57:03.600 So I think you gotta figure it out, brother.

00:57:05.840 I don't,

00:57:06.200 I don't know, dude.

00:57:07.520 Why do you,

00:57:08.120 why would you even call and ask me that?

00:57:10.000 I don't know.

00:57:10.900 I mean,

00:57:11.040 I appreciate you calling.

00:57:11.820 Sorry,

00:57:12.060 I shouldn't,

00:57:12.320 I shouldn't say that.

00:57:13.320 I appreciate you calling, man.

00:57:14.640 You know what?

00:57:14.960 I'm sorry you're dealing with that.

00:57:17.420 Uh,

00:57:17.820 but I,

00:57:18.140 I'm glad you care.

00:57:19.220 I remember,

00:57:19.660 I thought my brother would try to make love

00:57:21.200 to me when we were children.

00:57:22.980 You know that?

00:57:24.120 And,

00:57:24.560 uh,

00:57:25.760 and I'd be scared.

00:57:26.880 And so at night,

00:57:27.440 I remember I'd put,

00:57:28.100 I had me a little bag,

00:57:28.700 a little sack of jingle bells,

00:57:29.940 you know,

00:57:30.160 a couple of J bells.

00:57:31.180 And,

00:57:31.460 uh,

00:57:31.700 I'd lay down at night

00:57:32.920 and I'd balance some J bells on my body.

00:57:36.060 And,

00:57:36.520 um,

00:57:37.320 and so if he tried to come get me,

00:57:38.680 it would,

00:57:39.040 you know,

00:57:39.420 I,

00:57:39.640 it would,

00:57:41.180 it would,

00:57:41.800 you know,

00:57:42.080 it,

00:57:42.200 you could,

00:57:43.060 you'd set off the alarm,

00:57:45.620 you know?

00:57:45.920 so what else?

00:57:50.760 Um,

00:57:51.860 what do I,

00:57:52.300 oh,

00:57:52.540 what do I want for Christmas?

00:57:53.460 I am getting a book that I know I asked for.

00:57:57.560 Hmm.

00:57:57.960 I got a couple of vitamins.

00:57:59.680 I'm getting this mic arm maybe fixed.

00:58:03.420 Um,

00:58:04.320 what else?

00:58:06.520 I'm trying to maybe take a little trip to the beach or something,

00:58:09.180 but I don't know yet.

00:58:12.080 Uh,

00:58:12.900 and,

00:58:15.300 yeah,

00:58:17.040 I'm going to spend Christmas in,

00:58:18.660 uh,

00:58:18.940 Louisiana.

00:58:20.020 So I'm excited about that.

00:58:21.580 In Baton Rouge.

00:58:23.780 And,

00:58:24.500 um,

00:58:25.780 Covington,

00:58:26.320 Mandeville,

00:58:26.960 New Orleans,

00:58:27.500 just around the hood.

00:58:28.640 So,

00:58:29.460 uh,

00:58:29.880 grateful for that to see some of my friends and family.

00:58:33.200 So those are things that are going on with me.

00:58:35.700 Let me play a call right here.

00:58:38.280 Hey,

00:58:38.680 what's up the,

00:58:39.180 I'm a huge fan.

00:58:39.900 I listen to your podcasts at work all the time.

00:58:41.940 Thank you,

00:58:42.500 brother.

00:58:43.100 Thank you for checking it out.

00:58:44.560 And yeah,

00:58:45.020 I feel fortunate that we get to keep doing this.

00:58:48.260 My question is,

00:58:49.460 uh,

00:58:49.820 I was in the military for five years and,

00:58:52.140 I was in Japan and I had a fiance of five years.

00:58:56.180 And when I came home,

00:58:57.420 I found out she cheated on me a year ago.

00:58:59.760 Should I give her another chance since,

00:59:01.820 I mean,

00:59:01.980 I wasn't home all the time.

00:59:03.000 I'd come home once a week every year or should I just move on?

00:59:06.800 Thanks gang gang.

00:59:08.260 You know,

00:59:08.820 I think that's a great question.

00:59:10.160 I think you got to look at the reality of it.

00:59:12.380 If you're home once a week for a year,

00:59:14.600 that's tough.

00:59:16.380 Now she broke her word.

00:59:18.100 Some people are young and at certain times they just,

00:59:20.600 their word isn't really as strong because they are still putting their word

00:59:24.800 together.

00:59:25.960 And I'm not justifying everybody's behavior.

00:59:29.160 Uh,

00:59:29.560 everybody's behavior.

00:59:30.440 I'm not justifying my own behavior even.

00:59:32.880 Um,

00:59:33.460 but there's definitely a different,

00:59:35.980 you know,

00:59:37.980 you know,

00:59:39.140 you're still,

00:59:39.640 you're learning some things and people said,

00:59:41.340 well,

00:59:41.400 you should,

00:59:41.740 you're learning in your 20.

00:59:42.680 Yeah,

00:59:42.940 you are.

00:59:44.140 Yeah.

00:59:44.460 You're learning how to be in a long distance with all that stuff.

00:59:46.800 You're figuring it out.

00:59:48.160 Sometimes you're afraid to hurt somebody's feelings and that's why you don't

00:59:50.620 tell them,

00:59:51.020 even though that's,

00:59:51.600 it's selfish because it is hurts them in the longer way,

00:59:54.000 but you don't know that you're,

00:59:55.000 you're feeling,

00:59:55.460 you're figuring it out sometimes.

00:59:57.800 Um,

00:59:58.200 so I think it's possible.

01:00:03.020 I've had friends that have forgiven the,

01:00:05.280 the loved one or significant other for,

01:00:09.140 uh,

01:00:09.440 sexual indiscrepancies and then they packaged it up and now you can hear them,

01:00:14.420 you know,

01:00:14.980 you'll invite,

01:00:15.620 I won't even invite them over cause they'll be in there thumping brother.

01:00:18.880 They'll be in there just slurping.

01:00:22.400 So I think that's part of it,

01:00:25.100 but yeah,

01:00:25.800 I think,

01:00:26.200 and look,

01:00:26.400 you can always try it and see how it goes.

01:00:30.200 But the weird thing,

01:00:31.320 and I've done this where you forgive somebody, 0.99

01:00:33.240 but then you keep bringing that shit up. 0.99

01:00:36.180 That isn't good. 1.00

01:00:37.620 It feels good,

01:00:38.520 but it's not cool.

01:00:40.580 So that's the thing you can't do.

01:00:42.200 If you forgive,

01:00:42.900 you have to forgive,

01:00:43.920 man.

01:00:44.800 You have to forgive because otherwise you're just letting somebody hold.

01:00:48.240 You're just,

01:00:48.660 you're basically holding a card.

01:00:50.260 You're saying,

01:00:50.640 I'm going to hold this card that I can use whenever I want.

01:00:53.720 And that's even,

01:00:54.520 that's worse than choosing to forgive or not to forgive.

01:00:58.700 You know,

01:00:59.280 that's the,

01:00:59.780 you then saying,

01:01:00.220 I want this power.

01:01:01.480 I want this power to,

01:01:02.780 uh,

01:01:03.080 control how the situation goes constantly.

01:01:06.940 Um,

01:01:07.380 and I'll notice that in my own life over a certain time.

01:01:11.400 Sometimes I'll,

01:01:11.880 I want to keep an,

01:01:12.940 a,

01:01:13.140 a level of communication.

01:01:15.640 I want to keep a little enough distance where I can kind of,

01:01:19.740 uh,

01:01:21.980 um,

01:01:23.620 like if I think somebody might be,

01:01:25.240 uh,

01:01:25.380 like have an issue or might be upset about,

01:01:27.420 instead of bringing it up and talking to them,

01:01:29.280 getting it out,

01:01:29.760 I'd rather almost sometimes,

01:01:31.420 this is not the best part of me that wants to do this,

01:01:34.200 but there's a part of me sometimes that would,

01:01:36.400 it almost rather let them be unsure,

01:01:39.780 you know,

01:01:41.780 because it let them be unsure if our relationship is okay,

01:01:44.940 because it gives me some sort of power,

01:01:47.540 you know,

01:01:49.160 um,

01:01:49.420 it gives me some sort of control,

01:01:51.180 perceived control in my own head.

01:01:52.980 And,

01:01:53.480 um,

01:01:53.780 and that's a sick part of me that operates that way.

01:01:57.540 And it's not always or anything.

01:01:59.020 And it's definitely been more in the past,

01:02:00.380 but I have noticed that behavior in myself at times,

01:02:02.600 if I'm not doing well or not taking care of myself,

01:02:04.760 um,

01:02:07.200 I'd rather keep things on thin ice because,

01:02:09.500 because I'm used to,

01:09:23.340 You're saying,

01:09:24.020 and things aren't getting easier.

01:09:25.500 My rope's in.

01:09:27.900 I just need to figure out how to be a person again.

01:09:32.820 Been through rehab three times.

01:09:34.780 Last time seems to be sticking pretty good.

01:09:37.340 So,

01:09:38.180 there's that.

01:09:39.560 But,

01:09:39.960 um,

01:09:46.160 at a loss with it,

01:09:47.920 man.

01:09:48.380 I've worked hard my whole life.

01:09:50.700 Just keep going and going.

01:09:53.560 Everything just keeps slipping and slipping.

01:09:55.200 And I just,

01:09:57.680 I don't know what to do anymore,

01:09:58.800 man.

01:09:59.540 Things are just getting

01:10:00.460 way out of control for

01:10:02.460 what I can handle.

01:10:04.780 Amen,

01:10:05.420 brother.

01:10:05.660 I appreciate you reaching out and just saying,

01:10:07.660 hey,

01:10:07.860 seeing what's going on.

01:10:08.740 Yeah,

01:10:09.060 dude,

01:10:09.260 I've definitely,

01:10:10.540 you know,

01:10:11.640 God,

01:10:12.480 I've felt down in the dumps.

01:10:16.340 I think everybody has at some point.

01:10:18.320 you know,

01:10:20.300 and yeah,

01:10:20.520 when the chips keep falling the other way,

01:10:22.300 you know,

01:10:23.200 when the Asian guy keeps winning all the gambling stuff.

01:10:27.940 Man,

01:10:29.740 full house,

01:10:30.940 blah,

01:10:31.160 blah,

01:10:31.380 Korea.

01:10:33.200 Um,

01:10:36.600 yeah,

01:10:39.920 man,

01:10:40.380 I,

01:10:40.920 uh,

01:10:42.100 you know,

01:10:43.520 I'll tell you a couple of things,

01:10:44.800 man,

01:10:45.040 that I've had noticed in myself.

01:10:47.040 So there was times,

01:10:48.920 there was times when,

01:10:53.200 um, 0.99

01:10:54.900 I only noticed the rough shit in my, 0.99

01:10:57.380 in my life. 1.00

01:10:58.180 I only noticed it.

01:10:59.640 I'm not saying this happened to you,

01:11:01.220 but

01:11:01.980 that self pity became my alcohol.

01:11:06.920 Anytime I needed this,

01:11:08.440 I'd feel sorry for myself.

01:11:09.880 Well,

01:11:10.000 let me open up another can of,

01:11:11.140 I feel sorry for myself.

01:11:12.140 I'm not saying this,

01:11:13.160 what you're doing at all.

01:11:13.880 This just reminded me of this for myself.

01:11:16.280 And I mean that wholeheartedly,

01:11:17.980 bro.

01:11:18.580 I would just slurp a six pack of self pity.

01:11:21.620 That was my drug.

01:11:23.760 This is wrong.

01:11:24.740 I can't not,

01:11:25.640 you know,

01:11:26.260 and once,

01:11:28.440 when that hit me,

01:11:29.140 I was like, 1.00

01:11:29.600 oh shit, 1.00

01:11:30.480 man, 0.99

01:11:30.700 I'm,

01:11:30.960 you know,

01:11:31.500 I'm,

01:11:31.740 I'm washing myself in bath water.

01:11:33.760 I'm getting,

01:11:34.040 I'm doing the thing that I'm supposed to do to take care of myself.

01:11:36.380 I'm getting this stuff off of me and out of my system.

01:11:38.800 But then I'm,

01:11:39.400 I got a straw in my own bath water.

01:11:42.540 And I was sitting there just slizzurping on my own sadness all the time.

01:11:47.860 Now I'm not saying that's what you're doing,

01:11:48.940 but I noticed from myself that my,

01:11:50.720 that self pity became a drug for me.

01:11:52.420 What else,

01:11:55.760 what else,

01:11:56.380 man?

01:11:56.500 Let me think of something else.

01:12:01.480 You know,

01:12:02.180 that's a lot,

01:12:03.120 man.

01:12:03.480 Cause a lot of what you're saying has real like emotional attachment to it.

01:12:08.280 You're trying to get your kids,

01:12:09.600 you out of your house,

01:12:11.060 you know,

01:12:11.260 you're,

01:12:11.560 that's a lot of upheaval.

01:12:12.860 And I think some of that probably just takes time,

01:12:18.020 you know?

01:12:20.280 But yeah,

01:12:20.800 I'm sorry,

01:12:21.140 man.

01:12:21.220 That's also a lot.

01:12:22.420 That's a lot.

01:12:23.200 And so I think just give yourself some grace to be,

01:12:26.120 you know,

01:12:26.560 to not also put the pressure on yourself to feel great.

01:12:31.200 You know,

01:12:31.680 it's a lot of tough stuff going on.

01:12:35.160 You know,

01:12:35.640 the other day I was upset about something. 0.99

01:12:38.040 I wanted to call and just fucking rearrange the tits on somebody. 1.00

01:12:42.480 I wanted to switch them bitches, 1.00

01:12:44.500 put the FM one on the AM dial and vice versa. 1.00

01:12:47.600 I was just pissed at this lady. 1.00

01:12:53.680 But instead I just sat in my car for a little bit.

01:12:57.760 I breathed.

01:12:59.680 That's why God gave me this big note.

01:13:01.320 And he's like, 1.00

01:13:01.820 breathe motherfucker. 1.00

01:13:02.720 What are you doing? 1.00

01:13:04.400 You out here just fucking just taking chances, 1.00

01:13:06.440 bitch. 1.00

01:13:06.620 I told you, 1.00

01:13:07.100 I'm showing you,

01:13:08.980 you know,

01:13:09.320 do a eight ball of air,

01:13:10.700 buddy.

01:13:11.040 We'd meet,

01:13:11.440 you know,

01:13:12.120 G up.

01:13:15.920 And I had me a couple of Charleston shoes there. 0.99

01:13:17.840 I found him a corridor and ate them bitches. 1.00

01:13:20.580 Oh, 0.99

01:13:26.220 and then I just went to a meeting.

01:13:28.500 And after that,

01:13:29.720 after that,

01:13:30.340 I even called my brother.

01:13:31.460 I say,

01:13:31.680 man,

01:13:31.880 I can't,

01:13:32.980 I'm about to lose.

01:13:33.860 You know,

01:13:34.400 if I call this person right now,

01:13:35.240 I'm gonna lose my mind.

01:13:35.880 And he said,

01:13:36.140 well,

01:13:36.340 wait till,

01:13:36.800 wait till later. 0.98

01:13:39.320 Because I was attaching all this other shit to how, 0.98

01:13:42.020 to my day. 0.98

01:13:43.740 I was attaching all this old,

01:13:45.840 these feelings and stuff to my day.

01:13:47.480 And to that next thing, 0.99

01:13:50.900 I was bringing a whole trailer full of bullshit. 0.99

01:13:53.620 And I was going to hitch it to this one moment about the way things had gone down with this, 1.00

01:13:58.820 this woman.

01:14:01.740 It wasn't like a dating.

01:14:02.660 It was a work,

01:14:03.280 work thing.

01:14:05.780 But it was all me. 1.00

01:14:06.760 It was all my shit, 1.00

01:14:08.240 you know, 0.99

01:14:09.100 that I was bringing extra to what would have just,

01:14:12.680 and then when I finally was chill,

01:14:14.800 later on,

01:14:15.420 it was a normal conversation.

01:14:16.900 And it was actually positive.

01:14:19.080 So it could be positive.

01:14:20.220 I don't know what I'm telling you,

01:14:21.120 man.

01:14:21.480 I'm just telling you,

01:14:22.140 I'm just,

01:14:22.900 yeah,

01:14:23.060 man,

01:14:23.160 I'm sorry that you're dealing with that.

01:14:24.580 And it's a tough time of year and it's the holidays.

01:14:27.200 And,

01:14:27.400 uh,

01:14:28.000 but you're not alone,

01:14:29.100 man.

01:14:29.820 You know,

01:14:30.440 we're only alone when we find ourselves alone.

01:14:32.460 We got to remember to get out there too.

01:14:35.140 Nobody's going to come and just help us be on alone.

01:14:37.800 We have to do it,

01:14:38.780 you know?

01:14:41.980 And they say that old saying,

01:14:43.380 you know,

01:14:43.700 nothing changes if nothing changes,

01:14:45.880 you know?

01:14:46.880 So if I want something to be different,

01:14:48.140 I have to do something different.

01:14:53.220 And I'm not preaching at you.

01:14:54.580 I'm listening.

01:14:55.520 I'm,

01:14:55.760 I'm,

01:14:56.060 I'm basically just talking to myself.

01:14:57.760 Right on.

01:14:59.260 But,

01:14:59.620 but yeah,

01:15:01.740 man,

01:15:01.820 I love you and keep your head up and next year will be a different year.

01:15:06.160 You know,

01:15:06.640 next year will be a different year.

01:15:09.640 And don't leave before the miracle happens.

01:15:11.800 You know,

01:15:12.060 that saying,

01:15:12.640 that's what they say.

01:15:14.520 But Merry Christmas.

01:15:15.480 Thank you for being a support,

01:15:16.840 supportive of this podcast.

01:15:17.980 Thank you for letting me be a part of your life.

01:15:20.740 Um,

01:15:21.680 I'm going to make some new year's resolutions,

01:15:24.440 something,

01:15:24.760 nothing too heavy,

01:15:25.420 just some things like some goals for the new year.

01:15:28.500 You know,

01:15:28.820 we want to do more ways to give back.

01:15:30.600 And I'm excited about that.

01:15:31.660 We're finally putting a foundation together.

01:15:33.280 So that's really exciting.

01:15:35.580 Um,

01:15:36.660 and so we're going to be able to find ways to do that.

01:15:39.980 And,

01:15:40.620 uh,

01:15:41.220 what else?

01:15:43.180 I think to just learn more from,

01:15:45.220 um,

01:15:45.640 people that can help us learn,

01:15:47.420 you know,

01:15:47.960 I want to learn more and get more information,

01:15:49.900 um,

01:15:51.500 and learn more about myself too.

01:15:55.480 You know,

01:15:56.240 and,

01:15:56.760 uh,

01:15:58.280 and try not to do everything by myself.

01:16:01.880 You know,

01:16:02.320 that's one of my things I struggle with.

01:16:03.660 Sometimes I just want to do it all alone.

01:16:06.160 But the saddest thing I've realized when you do everything alone,

01:16:08.840 after it's done,

01:16:11.880 you,

01:16:12.000 there's nobody to talk to about it.

01:16:15.220 There's nobody to share with.

01:16:16.640 There's no,

01:16:16.880 you know,

01:16:17.140 but anyway,

01:16:20.200 not trying to end on a dour note.

01:16:22.260 Um,

01:16:22.960 oh yeah,

01:16:23.640 we went out Christmas caroling the other day,

01:16:25.600 you know,

01:16:26.220 um,

01:16:27.140 I'd been wanting to get out and do it.

01:16:29.260 And it was,

01:16:30.300 uh,

01:16:30.860 just some guys from the gym.

01:16:32.120 We put a little squad together and went out there and hit the streets.

01:16:35.520 And,

01:16:36.800 uh,

01:16:37.160 we had a couple of bangers,

01:16:38.260 a couple of songs we,

01:16:39.020 we had to give up in just in the middle of it.

01:16:42.160 Um,

01:16:42.900 there was one church group that was having a dinner.

01:16:44.980 They invited us in for some cookies and,

01:16:47.140 uh,

01:16:48.480 uh,

01:16:49.500 select meats and stuff.

01:16:51.160 And it was good,

01:16:53.720 man.

01:16:54.020 It was,

01:16:54.540 we did a good job.

01:16:56.040 We did a good job out there.

01:16:57.220 We just put some songs together and just walk the streets and just went up to people's doors and knocked.

01:17:02.920 And yeah,

01:17:03.980 people were happy.

01:17:04.800 They had,

01:17:05.140 somebody had a dog that saw us as well.

01:17:07.420 And so people and animals were really enjoying it.

01:17:09.820 And one went Alzheimer's,

01:17:11.720 saw us.

01:17:12.300 And then,

01:17:12.660 or I don't know if she saw us or not, 0.99

01:17:14.780 fucking we was there, 0.99

01:17:15.500 but we enjoyed it, 0.99

01:17:17.300 man.

01:17:18.120 And,

01:17:18.480 um,

01:17:19.660 anyway,

01:17:20.940 I just want to wish everybody a,

01:17:22.180 a,

01:17:22.660 a Merry Christmas.

01:17:24.000 Um,

01:17:25.100 you guys take care of each other.

01:17:26.580 Take care of your loved ones.

01:17:28.880 Um,

01:17:29.460 sorry if I sound preachy today.

01:17:30.700 I feel really preachy.

01:17:32.380 Uh,

01:17:32.820 I don't mean to,

01:17:34.120 I got to go do some work after this and that's okay.

01:17:37.720 You know,

01:17:40.400 um,

01:17:41.680 sometimes I struggle with like,

01:17:42.800 I'll get up and I,

01:17:43.600 and it'll be like,

01:17:44.260 I have to do that.

01:17:45.880 I have to do this instead of like,

01:17:46.860 you know,

01:17:47.000 I get to do this.

01:17:47.840 People say that all the time,

01:17:48.800 but it's like,

01:17:49.200 I really have to take that moment more and try to see,

01:17:52.240 look at my own perspective.

01:17:54.200 Like this is life.

01:17:56.120 You know,

01:17:56.580 this is life and you get to do it.

01:18:00.640 And so how do I want to feel about it?

01:18:02.820 Right.

01:18:03.140 Yeah.

01:18:07.460 Yeah.

01:18:07.780 And that's something I got,

01:18:08.540 I,

01:18:08.880 how do I,

01:18:09.460 how do I want to feel about it?

01:18:10.660 And sometimes I'll still choose.

01:18:12.060 I want,

01:18:12.400 I want to feel pissed about it.

01:18:13.640 I want to feel bad about it.

01:18:15.420 You know?

01:18:15.840 And then it's like,

01:18:16.280 well,

01:18:16.400 why,

01:18:16.760 why do I want to feel that way?

01:18:18.460 Uh,

01:18:19.060 I want to feel bad about it.

01:18:21.780 I want to feel pissed about it.

01:18:24.740 Um,

01:18:27.120 cause then it's really just me advertising.

01:18:28.860 I want you to feel how I feel.

01:18:30.360 Right.

01:18:30.960 That's kind of what it is.

01:18:31.940 There's something inside of me that I want you to feel.

01:18:38.760 You know,

01:18:39.280 it's like,

01:18:39.600 Oh,

01:18:39.720 it's not fair that I have to feel bad.

01:18:41.320 You should feel.

01:18:41.980 So I'm going to bring that energy out of myself.

01:18:45.560 And I think more often than not,

01:18:47.140 if I can try to get a little bit more around like,

01:18:50.300 well,

01:18:51.160 let me find a good part of me.

01:18:52.860 Let me find a part of me.

01:18:53.780 That's hopeful.

01:18:54.420 That's grateful.

01:18:55.900 That has a,

01:18:56.900 that's that fight and chance.

01:18:58.080 Let me find that part of me inside of me.

01:19:00.240 And bring that part to the front of me.

01:19:06.140 Cause that's also a part of me that that's just as,

01:19:08.960 just as the part of me is that wants you to see like the part that part of me

01:19:14.100 that,

01:19:14.380 that has pain.

01:19:15.500 And there's a part of me that has pride,

01:19:18.200 you know,

01:19:19.580 and that has hope.

01:19:21.460 And that is a part of me too,

01:19:23.000 that I,

01:19:23.320 sometimes I don't summon that part of me enough to the front of myself.

01:19:29.360 And I'm not,

01:19:30.000 there's no judgment in that.

01:19:30.840 I'm just kind of thinking and realizing it.

01:19:32.420 Like I almost want to bring sometimes a little bit of a victim hood.

01:19:35.520 I don't know if it's a victim,

01:19:39.980 but I want you,

01:19:40.580 I just,

01:19:41.100 I want somebody to recognize,

01:19:43.300 you know,

01:19:45.320 something,

01:19:46.820 you know,

01:19:46.980 I want to,

01:19:47.700 you know,

01:19:48.440 but,

01:19:48.940 but there's also a part of me that's like,

01:19:51.780 I got this,

01:19:54.640 you know,

01:19:56.020 I can do this,

01:19:57.920 you know,

01:19:59.420 I'm okay.

01:20:00.960 I can handle this.

01:20:02.140 I love myself.

01:20:03.160 I love some,

01:20:03.940 someone,

01:20:04.460 I love someone.

01:20:05.060 So these are my hopes.

01:20:06.140 These are my dreams.

01:20:06.960 Let me walk out into the world with that.

01:20:09.220 Let me bring that.

01:20:11.420 Let that be the mirror that people see when they come up to me.

01:20:16.400 And then I'll probably get more reflection out of the world that I would like that when I show up the other way.

01:20:25.260 But anyway,

01:20:26.780 man,

01:20:27.080 I love you guys.

01:20:27.960 And just thank you for coming out to the shows this year.

01:20:30.480 And being so supportive and yeah.

01:20:36.380 And be good to yourselves,

01:20:37.840 man.

01:20:38.040 You guys deserve it.

01:20:40.140 Let's go out on one.

01:20:43.500 This is also,

01:20:44.700 these are all from epidemic sounds is where we get our music from.

01:20:47.760 And you can listen to these bangers in there.

01:20:49.620 And this is the Christmas spirit by the snowy hill singers.

01:20:55.960 And you guys be good to yourselves.

01:20:58.120 What a fun year.

01:20:58.840 I think we tried to have,

01:21:00.140 you know,

01:21:01.480 and,

01:21:01.880 um,

01:21:03.060 I just pray that we can have,

01:21:04.860 uh,

01:21:05.740 a good one next year too.

01:21:07.840 You know,

01:21:08.600 we got this baby.

01:21:09.500 Praise God,

01:21:10.120 baby gang. 1.00

01:21:10.580 I hate that shit. 1.00

01:21:26.420 Let me get one more. 1.00

01:21:29.920 That was an antithesis.

01:21:31.100 So what I just said,

01:21:31.860 what?

01:21:32.000 Sorry,

01:21:37.860 dude.

01:21:39.080 All right.

01:21:39.560 Let's hear this one guys.

01:21:40.780 Love y'all.

01:21:42.740 Oh yeah,

01:21:43.380 baby.

01:21:44.800 Turn them lights off,

01:21:45.980 baby.

01:21:47.200 Turn them on.

01:21:47.740 Actually,

01:21:47.900 I got to find my shoes.

01:21:50.200 Yeah.

01:21:54.640 Oh God,

01:21:55.720 boy.

01:21:55.980 Oh yeah.

01:22:01.060 Let me put some lotion on your legs, 1.00

01:22:04.420 big daddy.

01:22:07.000 I remember this old guy in our neighborhood would let us lotion his legs up or his son would let him.

01:22:11.560 This old,

01:22:12.200 this man would let us lotion up his dad's legs. 0.84

01:22:14.740 His dad had been in,

01:22:15.700 um,

01:22:16.660 in the war,

01:22:18.760 I think,

01:22:18.960 or in a fire or something.

01:22:20.020 He would let us put the lotion on him when we were young.

01:22:22.860 This reminds me of that.

01:22:41.280 All right.

01:22:41.740 That ain't it either.

01:22:42.560 Jesus Christ.

01:22:43.480 That's sad.

01:22:45.980 See one more that we got here.
