Y' all gotta stay for O.T. listen up, workers. Overtime is mandatory this weekend. No excuses. [00:00:22] Speaker A: Let me work. Please let me work. Let me work. Please let me. Omega Sci Fi fraternity Greta the tittle tattle prattled on about the little metal [00:00:43] Speaker B: bottle she spat a bit of spittle on the modern brittle cattle in a bitter battle. [00:00:46] Speaker A: Hey, hey. Stop questioning my methods, okay? [00:00:49] Speaker B: I was chosen for this task for a very good reason. No, chose herself. [00:00:58] Speaker C: We long to believe in the traditional heaven and hell. For example, in our philosophy, which we call the SC Science of living. You say our. Is it yours or is it our church? We believe that heaven and hell are states of mind within the individual having their corresponding conditions. What happens after you die? Nothing. I believe that life is just life. Life is expressing itself in me through me. And as me. The same life is expressing itself in you through you. And as you. And nothing ever happens to that life, you come back again. Or. I mean, I don't understand your philosophy or your religion. Well, I do not believe that my life ever ceases. It will cease to exist in this form. And of course here we perhaps get very mystic and abstract. Well, tell me about it. You probably have to. What happens when it. When you're talking about so called. You do not believe in a life after death. I believe in a life which is eternal life in the eternal now. I believe that. Can you explain that to me? Yes. Well, when I have left this body which I substitute for, say, for the word dying, when I leave this body, I continue to live. This life which I am, continues to exist. Perhaps in some other form. Certainly in some other form. Do you know what that form is? No, I don't. I really don't have any. Any theories as such about so called life after death. Because I'm concerned about life now. Do you tell your parishioners that? This is it, folks? No. We teach people how to live now. How should a person live now? I believe that a person should live now enjoying health, happiness, success and prosperity. I believe that the only time is now. But it's an eternal kind of now. I don't understand that. I don't know really how else to put it. When we. What's this? I just. Well, for example, yesterday is gone, tomorrow never comes. It doesn't make sense to tell people about how you're going to live in heaven when you die here again. Our philosophy prepares people to live now rather than preparing people to die. Whereas traditional religion teaches people how to die the fundamentalist type of religion. But we teach people how to live now. And I believe if you live well now, the rest of it will take care of itself.

Let's get the guns and the booms and all of that, but let's start this off. Okay. Yeah, I got a couple from Cousin Jerome. Okay. I want to start from. Well, we haven't recorded in a while. So, yeah, let's start off with quote from Buddha. It says, health is the greatest gift. Contentment, the greatest wealth, faithfulness, the best relationship choice. All right, and then it says, love is when you don't have to be with another person to touch their heart. By Torcado Tasso. Salute. Then I've got. I do not think the measure of. Of a civilization is how tall its buildings of concrete are, but rather how well its people have learned to relate to their environment and fellow man. By Sunbear A. Chippewa. Let's see here then we have. Being smart does not necessarily correspond to schoolwork. There is intuitive smart, smart, emotional smart, street smart, knowing how the cosmos work smart. And that's from Henry Winkler. I fully agree. And then we've got. Purpose is the essential element of you. It is the reason you are on the planet at this particular time in the history of the world. It's by Chadwick Boseman. It's tough right there. With those. That last one was very tough. Very tough. Chad Wick. Salute. Rest in peace, brother. Taz had a couple give the gift of your absence to those who do not appreciate your presence. I love that. I definitely live by that. Ego says, once everything fails. Excuse me. Once everything falls into place, I will find peace. Spirit says find peace and everything falls into place. It's tough. All right, and let's see here. Let's see. This look like a couple from Bling. Yeah. When your plans crumble, trust him. His higher way carries peace. Your expectations never could. Salute. Of course. Let's see here. Good morning. Have a blessed Sunday. May God grant you his mercy, love and grace. God bless you. This. God bless you. Happy Sunday. Appreciate that. Bling Salute to you as well, my brother. Appreciate you my life. All right, and then we do have an email to read and to go through, so let's go ahead and get to that as well. Salute to my brother. Be easy. Go ahead and read this. This is Sight Unseen, y'. All. Just letting y' all know. All right, so we're not going. I'm just a sight unseen. But let's go ahead and get into this letter. This is Happy Anniversary. What's up, playboy? First off, I want to congratulate you on doing this solo thing for a year. You're locked in now. I do have one question, though. As a dj, is there another anniversary song other than the one by Tony? Tony, Tony, I know you're on the socials, but I wanted to know if you've noticed the lack of Bots since the Ukrainian attack on Russia. Russia, Russian data centers. Threads has been lovely this week with no negative contrarian black hate. Also, there is nothing the NBA can do to take over the supremacy that the NFL has. It just seems like with the NFL, the stakes are always higher and there's excitement week to week. Hell, even the WNBA has been more exciting than the NBA in recent years. All right, my boy, play. I'm out. All right. Salute. Salute to my brother. Be easy. Appreciate that, man. Appreciate you sending in. [00:25:02] Speaker A: Let me work that email. Please. Let me work. [00:25:06] Speaker B: So you say. Yeah, what's up? Play by. Want to congratulate us. Appreciate that, my brother. And again, you are definitely. You're in the fabric. We're in the DNA of the story that is mandatory over time, of course, with. With giving us the platform and stuff and taking us under y' all wing and under the umbrella at Crux. So we appreciate y' all just as much, man. Definitely. Now, first song other than the anniversary song by 2020 20. I honestly, if we're talking about events and anniversaries, I can't think of one. A lot of a little black lore about the Stevie Wonder Happy Birthday song. For those that don't. I know. Be easy. He more than likely knows this show. But yeah, it was originally written for Martin Luther King when we were campaigning or lobbying to have his birthday to be a national holiday. But. But as far as anniversaries, though, the only other close sir one that I could think of would be Ball drop maybe by French and fabulous. Just on some New Year's. Every. Every New Year's, but nothing specifically like anniversary. It's that time of year again. Or some like, damn, I'll have to get back to you on that one though. That's a great question. It's a great question. Anybody else that knows of one or screaming at this. [00:26:41] Speaker A: Their. [00:26:42] Speaker B: Their speakers or their phones and stuff right now, feel free to write in and let us know. Thank you. Let's see here. You know, is that I'm on socials now. I know. I have not noticed that. Now, I will say this. I don't have a Threads account. I know, I know. But I never got threads when it first dropped. As far as getting an account on Twitter or X, I can't say that I've seen a lack because the frequency that I go on, it's kind of like a binge drinker. Like I'll go and look and be scrolling for whatever amount of time and then I'll go maybe a day or two without seeing anything online. But that's very interesting. I have to look into that. There's a lot of other world things going on too that you know, earlier on this summer, this past summer and stuff I was it was taking a toll on my mental health seriously. So I had took a step back on covering as much. But that's interesting. That's interesting to note and I'll definitely be looking into that more or less. But yeah. And so while we added brotherly love to our brothers out there in Paris, they wilding right now in the streets. But nevertheless, let's see here again threads has been lovely this week with no negative contrarian black hate. That's awesome. Also, there's nothing the NBA can do to take over the supremacy that the NFL has. Just seems like with the NFL the stakes are always higher, which is true facts. And then there's excitement week to week facts. Even the WNBA has been more exciting than the NBA in recent years. Another fact got my boy was dropping bars man. Salute to be easy though on that. Appreciate you my way. That last little paragraph though definitely so with and this is addressing or alluding to what I was talking about last week y'. All with with the NBA already coming back around the preseason it started and all of that stuff. But I definitely agree. So my personal take, I think I've said this on the show plenty of times, but the NFL is [00:29:07] Speaker A: let's see do the knowledge. [00:29:09] Speaker B: The NFL is America's religion. So you know we get fed the NFL every day of the week all now now this year, all of the international games that are being played on the NFL, you got to be up Sunday morning to catch NFL and make sure you you're in on the action. So definitely agree with you there. Be easy the supremacy that the why the white supremacy that the NFL has. Yeah. And then like even all that said Jacksonville and Houston had to get game out in London earlier today and it was fire. So salute. Let's see here. Yeah. Week to week. So I agree. I I definitely agree with that. The NFL is not going anywhere and the billions and billions of dollars they spend on marketing and TV deals and stuff like that. NBA may be in a race to like stay relevant or stay in the headlines. But yeah, you're right, the NFL, NFL is ironclad, bruh. They ain't going nowhere. So again, appreciate you my life. [00:30:19] Speaker A: Salute. [00:30:20] Speaker B: And if y' all want us to discuss anything or want us to read your email again, email us mandatory ot704gmail.com it's mandatory ot704gmail.com and we'll make sure that we read the email for you. Wanted to update a couple things here of course like I mentioned Jaguars they played the Texans earlier and they beat them 34 31. Let's see here. I wanted to talk about a couple games that are on today. Now later on tonight the Cowboys will be playing the packers and tomorrow the Commanders will face the undefeated 49ers 4:30 games. You got the Chiefs and the Chargers. The Raiders will be playing playing the Bills, Cardinals and the Rams. But as we speak the Colts are currently winning against the Titans and Cam Ward brotherly love to Cam Wood. The Buccaneers are over the Steelers. I don't know how much I like that 10 nothing. The Patriots are winning against the Jets 7 to 3. The Giants over the Saints 10 to nothing. That's shout out to the Giants. The Falcons are Losing to the Bears 147 Shout out to the Bears and then the Panthers are only up right now three to nothing against the Eagles trying to control the clock it looks like. And the Ravens are beating the Browns 10 to nothing. So salutes there fantasy teams fantasy football wise. I don't want to jinx nothing but currently up right now in both leagues. So again if y' all want to email the shuttle mandatory704gmail.com or call the hotline 704-781-7011 and we'll make sure that you get heard again. Appreciate you Be easy for showing us some love my brother. Now I did want to bring it back to the essence a little bit back to some random thoughts and things to get off my chest for this week. There's a couple things that have bothered me and bugged me. The first, I will say is AI posters. Not only AI posters, but AI posters of food that you're selling. Okay, so it's bad enough the AI posters and how cartoony they are and inauthentic or, I don't know, cheesy. There's a bunch of different adjectives but. But it's a little dystopian the way that they look like just overall, okay, it's the same feeling that I get whenever I see the dude from Zeus, Lemmy or Ray J come on this TV screen. All right, Creepy. But the why is the font always the same with it? It's just ugly. It's ugly, but nevertheless. So AI posters is slop or red ready, but AI posters that are selling food like that you're supposed to be cooking or having your food truck or restaurant Come on, Come on. What are we doing? All right. It's nasty. It's disgusting. Yeah, it's nasty. So I just had to get that off my chest. While we're at it, though, and while I'm remembering homie from a couple weeks ago with the Trey songs, girl, I already read his name is Nate D. Great on Instagram. And then also the clip that I played at the beginning of the episode. This episode was Reverend Ike. So I just wanted to give credit to those. All right. Before I get to my last. Get it off. Get off your chest for the week. Let's get it off your chest for this week. And it kind of. It kind of upsets me a little bit. But with politically correct term is studs, I guess. But with studs, why do you just. Why is that stud aesthetic that way with the straight. Never mind now. All right, the white teeth aside, but why do they have big hips? This is all I want to know. Seriously, if anybody got an answer out there, there, feel free to write in. It's disturbing and kind of confusing for me. But when we see one of them look like Manny fresh in the face or like Lunel but then got hips. So, you know, again, just wanted to address that. Get off my chest because it was bugging me all week. So unfortunately, y' all got to God to hear that. Okay. Or hear me share that. So if y' all got any answers for me with that, definitely show your boy some love, please. Appreciate it. All right, so before we move forward, did want to show some brotherly love to Jamie Foxx. Jamie Foxx currently got a special out on Hulu. It's. It's hilarious to me. I still have yet to see Mojo Brooks Brooks. Not in a rush to see Mojo Brooks stand up because of the reviews that I've been hearing. But it's Jamie Foxx one. He take it back to the essence. He do his thing. All of the elements of a Jamie Foxx show. So you get a seriousness and life is serious and all of that. Then you got the jokes, but it's old school. Jamie Foxx as far as the jokes. And Jamie Foxx fans would know what I'm talking about. But, like, I might need security. The. You know, he has like this cadence where once you're laughing, he keeps going or talking. And like, he'll keep talking, keep talking and building on the joke. And yeah, he got into that bag. And then of course, he ends as he's ended all his stand ups and his signature of his. But it ended on the piano. Doing some fly stuff. So salute and brotherly love to Jamie Foxx. If y' all haven't checked that out on Hulu, make sure y' all check that out. Definitely. Also caught up with the drop. Snowfall to Drop. You know, I'm, I'm digging it. Of course it's still one of my favorite shows right now out. It's black hip hop, hip hop in the street. All right, so salute. Salute to Snowfall to Drop. Last week's episode was kind of a drag. Not even kind of a drag. It was a drag drag. And but they needed to, they needed an episode to build character and provide context and background information. So I get it. But it was definitely a drag. This week's episode was cool. Some action, it got active, a little gunplay, all of that, a little violence vibing on the dash. But yeah, so some gunplay this week. But salute. Salute to Snow for the drop. You know, that's my. In the end I caught up with Abbott Elementary a little bit this week. They just do a foolish job. What I meant to say when I was reading the email earlier from Be Easy was if you catch the last week's episode of DJ Blaze radio show because by the time that this episode dropped drops, they'll epic their episode would have dropped as well. However, last week's episode L and B Easy, they're going back and forth about television shows. Be Easy is a proponent and a fan of Abbott elementary and I salute you Be Easy and I am as well. But Elle is not. So I don't know. Ls main beef with it. I mean maybe it's just not entertaining to him overall which is fine, that's fair. But the argument that Be Easy is looking to lay out and that I tried to chime in in the comments because YouTube video and podcast shameless plug but DJ Blaze radio show podcast however. Yeah, the thing that I put in the comments was the show itself. It, it's, it transcends like different generations that can watch it, different races. Of course it's on abc. Be Easy brought that up last week in their episode. All the points that Be Easy was making, I was thinking in my head anyways. But it's a clean show, but it's still edgy. As far as the, the comedy you got to be clever and some of his side eyed. It's a lot of the kind of the Office vibes as far as the mockumentary style style which has been proven to work if you do it the right way. And then it's had cameos from Excuse me, celebrities. But then also crossover cameos with It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. So big, big, big, big, big up, big up, big up them big salute to Abbott Elementary. Shout out. One of my favorite shows, of course, of all time. [00:39:44] Speaker A: Okay. [00:39:44] Speaker B: Hell, of all time. I know. L see y' all gotta get to know L. But L, I could tell just by L. L is not a contrarian by nature. And looking to just go against the grain, but he does have his. His things. He's probably this. He's a New Yorker. He's a New Yorker. The end of the day, he's a New Yorker. And one characteristic about New York is you can't tell him anything about stuff that they know. All right? You ask a New Yorker, where's the best pizza at? They're gonna tell you. And that's. That's the type of guy. So he's not being a contrarian by being a contrary. Like, just trying to be a contrarian by nature. So when I'm hearing him go back and forth with be Easy, I'm like, what is it about Abbott elementary that's got him so perturbed? And then I think about it, l works in the school system them. You know what I'm saying? So it makes sense. He don't need to see Abbott elementary on tv because. But anyways, shout out to my brothers over there. DJ Blaze radio show, podcast. I don't mean to go off on a tangent like that. Also, Special Forces, again, I encourage anybody to catch up on Special Forces. If you have not seen Special Forces this season is Fire. Matt Barnes is in there. One of my favorites this season, Alicia Bumgardner, world boxer. Black woman world boxer. But this past week they were doing hand to hand combat and they asked a. Who wants to go up against Alicia? You know what I'm saying? And at first. But then she had a contender. This. I think it's a white. I believe it's a white boy figure skater or Olympic. Olympic skier who's like, parents passed in like a helicopter accident. Very tragic accident. But listen, salute to Special Forces, y' all. Catch up on that. If y' all haven't fire, it's fire this season. All right, so this part of the episode, I wanted to show some brotherly love to a YouTube creator. FD signifier. Also show some brotherly love to a Morgan State professor, Dr. Jared Ball and salute. And also I want to show some brotherly love to Killer Mike, honestly. Right. You know, like, so in the blackest sphere that I am in online, when I'm not engaged in any of the. The ratchet. The ratchetness or the ratchet. I tell y', all, or I allude to Culture United a lot. You know, some, some thoughtful women and men that I, I respect their intellect. And they always allude to Dr. Jared Ball. They've had FD Signifier as a guest on their panel several times. But Dr. Jared Ball has a work that has caught virality, if you will, in traction. And his. It's a essay. Slight. No, it's a book. Excuse me, part of me, but it's a book and it's the myth of the black buying power. And he's essentially debunking the myth of what we hear all the time as black people have a trillion dollars worth of buying power. And you know, we're pretty much always told that we're squandering the power that we have to come together and unify with this trillion dollars worth of buying power power. And he debunks it. I encourage you all to read his work or look up, you know, dark Dr. Jared balls plenty of podcasts where he's just breaking down his work and stuff like that. Essentially he's saying there's different factors and different elements such as like simple things, everyday things, rent, gas, food, the cost of, of humanity that draws and extracts from that, that $2 trillion of buying power. Anyways, so we're not talking about the money that we spend in the mall and that we have left over on our paycheck, the 2 trillion dollar amount. And some is coming from accounting for everything, like every black person's net worth, if you will. So that's essentially they, they painted the picture and drew the similarity also by saying a billionaire can't just write a check and, and cure the state of black America or the state of the world, or hunger, if you will. Right. [00:44:51] Speaker C: So [00:44:53] Speaker B: the. Just that's his. That's the argument at its core and at its base. That is simplest form. When he's attacked that, you know how they say hit dogs holler, he's essentially attacked those who have championed us, you know, coming together and spending our dollar or banking black and things like that. While those are great endeavors and initiatives for us to achieve as a community, it's not an economic vehicle for us to escape where we're at right now. The, the years behind or the, you know, the generations rather behind that we are when it comes to wealth. So one of the hit dogs that have hollered in this during pretty much the last two or three years, if you Will has been Killer Mike brotherly love to kill a mic. I will say this first and foremost, so I remember clear as day. I think, I believe I had my apartment in Fort Memphis Mill at the time when Killer Mike got a show on Netflix. And the show is. It was empowering for black people. It was interesting show and interesting concept, but it, it was, it was empowering for black people. I'll say that now. Again, the work from Dr. Ball, it seemed to. To strike a nerve with Killer Mike. And I believe that however Killer Mike came up in this discussion or in this discourse, he has and entered the chat, if you will. Now, my first time hearing about Dr. Ball's book has been when Killer Mike was on the Breakfast Club FD signifier. He has a recent video that he put out. I want to give that brother credit. Show him brotherly love. The video was like four hours long, but it's. It's called the second. Let me pull it up. All right, so the. The video is titled Fallen Idols How Black Leaders Fail Us. So it is by FD signifier. And again, the video is 4 hours, 13 minutes long. And the parts where he begins to talk about Killer Mike, he essentially is talking about how he used to be a fan of Killer Mike and that Killer Mike's arc has. He has began to essentially lean right. It's always been right leaning as far as gun rights and being from the south and stuff like that. But with his politics as lean right in a dangerous way and preach capitalism to black people as a way or as a means of liberation. It's very interesting to 40 year old like myself. So [00:48:09] Speaker A: come after me. I'm a man. [00:48:12] Speaker B: I encourage again, all of you to. To watch the video if you have the time and stuff like that. But again, brotherly love to FD signifier and brotherly love to kill a mic man. But we love to. Dr. Jared A. Ball, of course, but FD Signifier just. It just. I'm. He's the voice of the voiceless. All right. It's pretty much the way that I've been feeling the past year or so about a lot of the black elite, especially once they. They do get their money. I'm not looking for anybody to give me any money or an opportunity and all of that stuff. I'm just looking for people to not turn into the oppressor that they once like fought against and hate. As far as the sly remarks and comments. Anytime that someone challenges people nowadays, they bring up their bank account and how much money they make or, or how much more money they have than another person as a way of some kind of value. And again, some people are so poor, all they have is their money. So I hate that as an argument when people do that and when people just become the people that they were once against. So salute again. I didn't want to spend too much time on that, but there was a lot of gems that I did pull from that documentary or video, that video essay, that signifier, FD signifier. Posted one was, we have enough role models. We need some more role players. Five, we have enough role models. We need more role players. And so that was fire. But yeah, the entire essay. Awesome. Awesome. Again, I encourage anybody out there to watch that. It was all the stream. So while we're holding task, let's talk real quick. Take some accountability. First of all, two things I was wrong about this summer. Crash out boys. Crash out, Boys. It's not that it's ran his course, but I've outgrown the Crash out Boys. I'm still. Still TSF business. Still splat. I mean, Sauce Walker. That's the famous. However, the Dean Adrian Broner experiment for that train. I got out that car. Got out that car, y'. All. I can't do it anymore. You know, you're rooting for them and stuff. The beginning of something. Thought it was like wholesome. Excuse me. They let Zeus get a part of it and they never got it back, bruh. They. It's never been the same. It just hasn't, you know? No, it hasn't. That is just a big Zeus production now when you watch them. So, yeah, I'm done with them. And then A.B. a.B. And Ray J are both playing with health scares and health issues and stuff like that. So that's kind of a little bit scarier as well. But whatever. Rest of those brothers now. Second thing, I was wrong about this whole Reggie thing. I won't even say that I was wrong. I'm glad that I didn't get on here and really jump to either side because I still don't. I don't listen. There's truth in a little bit of everything. So I'm not saying, you know, put it like this. Reggie is kind of wigging out. He is. He is. [00:52:09] Speaker C: He's. [00:52:10] Speaker B: He's wilding out. He's crashing out, truly, on everything and everybody, but everybody. Like all of these people are victims of this Truman show effect. I try to keep telling y' all about, man. We live in this dystopia where people are living for clicks and talking to a screen Or a camera lens for a majority of their day. They're not even talking to regular people. They're talking to a camera for majority of the day. Mind you, I'm talking into a microphone right now. Am we going to do this for an hour a week? You heard? Hold on. Going to do this for an hour a week because I got to get outside and touch the people. So that's it's. It was all the stream news this week. Prayers to Reggie A and P.
