Have we been witnessing the fall of celebrity worship in real time? This raw, unfiltered conversation dives deep into the disturbing allegations against Tyler Perry, where actor Derek Dixon claims the entertainment mogul sexually assaulted him and created a hostile work environment through unwanted advances and intimidation tactics. 

The discussion explores how power dynamics in Hollywood create dangerous situations where aspiring actors must choose between their dignity and their careers. Text messages between Perry and Dixon reveal a pattern of persistent flirtation despite apparent rejection – a dynamic that mirrors workplace harassment scenarios where bosses exploit their position of authority. Most disturbing are Dixon's claims that Perry physically assaulted him by pulling down his underwear and grabbing him, forcing Dixon to lock himself in a bathroom for protection.

Beyond the specific allegations, we examine a fascinating cultural shift: the death of celebrity worship. There was a time when everyone aspired to fame, but today's audiences are gravitating toward authentic voices rather than manufactured personas. "This is the first era where people don't even want to be famous anymore," notes the host, explaining how social media has revealed the emptiness behind many celebrity façades. Instead, people connect with genuine personalities who speak their truth without filters.

The most powerful moments come when discussing personal boundaries and self-worth. "I will sleep on a park bench and cover myself with newspaper before I let somebody take advantage of me," the host declares, while acknowledging that not everyone has the strength to walk away from powerful abusers. How do you respond when someone keeps pushing your boundaries? When do you risk everything to protect your dignity? These questions resonate far beyond Hollywood.

Derrick Dixon was on a I don't know what. I don't know what station that was, but he gave an interview. And I don't know what station that was, but he gave an interview and Tyler Perry got some explaining to do, some explaining to do. You got some explaining to do, because we not understanding what you've been doing. You know, he got, he got, he had text messages with Derek Dixon saying that he, he was ain't I a hunk, ain't I a thug? What is this text message? So here they go. Tyler Perry sends them a picture. Nice picture, yeah, the water does look calm. So this guy, he's saying that he's been inappropriate and he got text messages to back it up. We're going to detail some of this story.

Speaker 1:

So one of the text messages is from Tyler Perry to Mr Dixon. It's Tyler Perry on a jet ski or on the side of a jet ski, and he says and the guy says nice picture, yeah, the water does look calm. Tyler Perry says nice picture, question mark, question mark. The water does look calm. Tyler Perry says Nice picture, question mark, question mark, question mark, question mark. Then the guy says Great, amazing, awesome picture. And then Tyler Perry says you don't see that stud in the nice picture. Rude, now this sounds like a man trying to force a compliment from a female. That's what this text message sounds like.

Speaker 1:

The guy said nice picture a couple times and Tyler Perry want him to talk directly about him. Then they got more text messages. Tyler Perry says you know what I cook? And he said Derek. And Derek said spaghetti Cake. He said no, I cook you. I'm so drunk Talking shit.

Speaker 1:

Then Tyler Prairie goes on to say what's it going to take for you to have guiltless sex? Have y'all found that yet in therapy? Yes, it's the exact same kind of car. I don't know what that means. Then Derek says giving up my religious guilt, becoming a Buddhist that's so cool. Then Tyler Perry says unfortunately, derek, I have friends who are in their 50s and 60s who are still dealing with that and it's so sad you can have freedom from religious guilt and still believe in Christ, and From religious guilt and still believe in Christ. He's flirting with this guy All throughout the thing. And dude, derek said he jumped in the bed with him. And the guy says I know I need the smell of roses more. And then Tyler Perry says you are the rose, but you are so blocked that you refuse to be smelled or opened. Then the guy says that is sweet and I'm working on it. Therapy I'm really scared that I'm going to waste my Therapy. I'm really scared that I'm going to waste my life worrying. He said been there, stopped somewhere in my late 30s, early 40s Apparently this is supposed to be Tyler Perry trying to talk.

Speaker 1:

Dude out of his pants, this is nasty. Another text message he says how do they make their money? Something? He's talking about paying subscriptions. Then Tyler Perry brings it right back to flirty, nasty shit. I love how I feel right now, but I don't like being horny. Testosterone, he said oh yeah, from the doctor, but it's making you feel better. He said I feel so good, but I don't like being horny. I feel sorry for the first person that flirts with me. Then the guy says then Derrick says LOL. Then Tyler guy says then Derrick says LOL. Then Tyler Perry says you don't even understand. Then he says right, and we just? He said I don't have any contact. What are you talking about? I haven't been touched in months. That's what Tyler Perry says. He said oh, you mean touching. I thought you meant being around people. He says I love that. I guess Jacobs is a version of me. And then Tyler says no dickhead, but blind. I don't know. I don't know what the hell Tyler Perry got going on. But we're going to get into this article.

Speaker 1:

I just wanted to go over some of the text messages that everybody's been talking about. It's like, when you read the text messages, it's like the guy at work that keeps flirting with his female co-worker who doesn't want to be flirted with, but the female tries to be nice and the guy just keeps pushing it and keeps, pushing it and keeps pushing it. That's the vibe of these text messages. It's like your boss or, even better, like your boss flirting with you and you just trying to like, keep your job and you trying to be nice, but the boss just keeps going and going, and going and going. Of course Tyler Perry calls it a shakedown. Terry said you can't be nice, they take it the wrong way.

Speaker 1:

So, before I get into this article, have any of y'all ever been in this type of situation at work and, and if so, how did you handle it? Anybody, anybody in the chat have you been in like a situation at a job where your boss keep flirting or doing shit like Tyler Perry was doing? And if so, how'd you handle it? Did you tell your boss eventually, tell him to shut the hell up, stop it? Did you quit or did you just deal with it and continue working? So Melissa said the best way to handle it is just to be kind of a bitch, okay. Rachel said she's never been in that situation, but she feel people that have. Melissa said she dealt with it. Angie said yes, her boss wouldn't stop flirting and offering her stuff. So, as a single mother, she took advantage. Elise said no one even attempt, because everybody know they know better. Lily said she's her own boss so she don't gotta worry about her flirting with herself. Damn, angie, sorry to hear that. Angie can't even get your work done. This motherfucker keep flirting. So, uh, we gonna get into from the variety. So we're going to get into From the variety.

Speaker 1:

Tyler Perry accused Derek Dixon detailed sexual assault allegations in ABC News interview. I thought it was stopped and it didn't. Derek Dixon, an actor suing Tyler Perry for sexual assault and harassment, appeared for an interview on ABC News on Tuesday to detail his allegations against the entertainment mogul. Dixon says he was exploited by Perry while starring on the producer's BET series. The Oval Perry's lawyers have issued statements denying the claims. In an interview from ABC News, lindsay Davis Dixon detailed an alleged incident included in the lawsuit, in which he says Perry pulled my underwear down and grabbed my ass after a night drinking at Perry's residence in Atlanta.

Speaker 1:

Let's stop right there. I don't know what the hell is wrong with some. It's almost like a lot of these people, a lot of their motivation to get money and what motivates them to work hard is so they can get money and take advantage of motherfuckers. That's what I'm starting to really realize. I'm starting to realize there are some people whose work ethic is driven by just wanting to succeed. But then, if this is to be true, I'm going to say allegedly, because we don't know yet, I don't know yet, but if this is to be true a person like Tyler Perry. I believe what drove him to become successful is because he couldn't live the way. He couldn't force people to do things. People didn't want to do things with him. So he got money so he could feel like he could manipulate and force and intimidate and use his money and power and influence to be a freaky motherfucker.

Speaker 1:

Big R when you at Big R, big R ain't here. Where Big R at. Where Big R at Big R got me blocked. I can't see Big R. She got me blocked. You know y'all be blocking folks. Y'all be blocking folks in the chat, but I'm starting to think somebody like Tyler Perry. A big part of his motivation was to take advantage of people.

Speaker 1:

If this is true, let's continue. He done went, allegedly, he done pulled the man's underwear down and grabbed his behind. Now, I was just playing Big R, I just didn't see your message. I was just playing, I just didn't see your message, but I found it. Hey, them poor demand pans down and grabbed his behind. Shall we continue? We shall.

Speaker 1:

We were both walking back to the guest area where I stayed before. There's this health monitor scale on the way. I was like what, what is that? And he said well, you have to be in your underwear to measure. He reached down and pulled my underwear down and grabbed my ass and I tried to stop him and he pulled back my underwear, back my underwear up. He kind of grabbed my arm and said no, no, no, it's okay, just go with it. And I said no, no, no, it's okay, just go with it. And I said stop, I don't want to be naked, I don't want this. And he said I'm not going to hurt you.

Speaker 1:

Madea, tyler Perry is Madea. Tyler Perry is Madea. Tyler Perry created Madea from his own freaky, perverted self. If this is true, you know, I'm starting to have a. You know I got a big platform. I have to be a little careful. These motherfuckers start trying to sue my ass Next thing I know then I have to fuck Tyler Perry ass up. No ditty.

Speaker 1:

But these motherfuckers, this is trifling man, this type of thing you don't want to see, you don't want to see in person. Ain't nobody safe and see. They always prey on people who, who are a little bit timid or not, cause I guarantee they will never try to pull my fucking pants. Tyler Perry would never try to put his fucking hands on nothing. But it's like when they see somebody who a little bit you know I don't want to say timid, but a little too inviting, like not a little too nice, they take full advantage. They know who's fucking pants to pull up and who's or who pants to pull down. He would never, none of them, motherfuckers, I would never have. Ain't nobody ever tried no shit like that with me in Hollywood. They would never. You know you getting fucked up Like you know you getting fucked up. Come on, son, go with it. Go with it. Go with it, go with it. You go to hell with it. He should have told him to go to hell with it. Let's continue with this trifling shit. Unless someone's been through something where they have their own control of their body taken away, you don't really understand the kind of feelings that you get in that moment.

Speaker 1:

Dixie continued. Every thought came into my head to run to fight to breathe. I didn't know what to do. This dude he just trying to work. He just trying to save his job. He don't know what to do. This pervert keep grabbing him and pulling his pants down, jumping in the bed with them.

Speaker 1:

Trayvon says the industry can't find happiness once they reach too high of a career. They have to go big to satisfy them. As the old saying goes, the money don't make you happy, but it sure can buy a lot. I had abuse, so this guy's just frozen because Medea won't keep his hands off of him. This is some shit Medea would do, but Medea was a woman. This is some shit Madea would do, but Madea was a woman. Tyler Perry is a guy and a boss and this is crazy.

Speaker 1:

So the evening allegedly ended with Dixon locking himself in the guest house bathroom. Dixon had to lock himself in the guesthouse bathroom. Dixon had to lock himself in the guesthouse bathroom. Y'all you understand that he had to lock himself in the guesthouse bathroom to get away from Madea's ass. See, that ain't cool. See, that's the type. Remember, y'all know I hate bullies, I hate people who intimidate, I hate people who scare motherfuckers. I don't like none of that man Because I'll be the one to be like scare me, motherfucker, come, scare me. Come pick on somebody who wants to smoke, who prepared for the smoke. Don't be picking on motherfuckers that you know you can intimidate and harass and just dominate. Nah, come try that shit right here, here, so I can teach your ass a lesson. So he locked himself in the guest house bathroom.

Speaker 1:

He says tyler perry called to apologize the following day. Dixon says that prior to the incident, he had stayed at perry's guest house on a prior evening, on which perry allegedly climbed into the bed with him and started rubbing his leg. Madea is out of control. Let me get my ass into the light. Madea is out of control, jumping in bed with folks and grabbing folks' legs, if this is true. So after he grabbed his legs, derrick Dixon jumps out of the fucking bed and he said turn around so I can look at you and just comment on how I look. Tyler Perry told him to look at me so I can look at you and tell you how you look. He complimented him and then he got up and left.

Speaker 1:

Dickson goes on to say I thought after that instance it was pretty clear that I was not interested in the type of relationship that he wanted. It's okay that people try to make a move or shoot their shot, but if they get rejected I think that they should stop. I thought it would stop after that, and it didn't. That they should stop. I thought it would stop after that and it didn't. Dixon also says that Perry had sent him numerous texts with sexual connotations. We read a few of them In his lawsuit. Dixon says he feared professional retaliation if he ignored Perry's messages.

Speaker 1:

In a season two episode of the Oval, dixon's character is shot multiple times, a scripted decision that Dixon took. As if you don't make me happy, I could stay dead on the show. So Tyler Perry's AKA Madea he's flirting with dude dude trying to be nice. Dude don't want Tyler Perry. Tyler Perry is not getting a hint or not taking no for an answer, and Tyler Perry allegedly sends him a message by shooting his character a few times, basically letting him know if you keep rejecting me, this next shot gonna be your last shot. This next shot gonna be your last shot now, tyler Perry.

Speaker 1:

If this is true, tyler Perry playing a dangerous game, because that's what they call forced labor coercion, manipulation, coercion, manipulation. You know what I mean. You forcing somebody or manipulating somebody through your power and influence to give up the drugs. He would kill him off the show. Now you want to come back alive. We need to have some horse play.

Speaker 1:

According to Derek Dixon, this is Tyler Perry's approach. If true, could get Tyler Perry in a lot of fucking trouble, a lot of trouble. They don't play about horse labor, as we see, and after we try to teach people. Man, you gotta be strong enough to say no. But in all fairness, like I try to tell people, you have to work so hard and there's such a difference between being a flat broke, homeless person and working in Hollywood. There's such a thin line between those two differences.

Speaker 1:

Man, unless you really push like you know, I push for music unless you really push and made it, it's hard to understand how somebody just can't walk away. See, this ain't like my job at my, my, my boss at the grocery store I work at is tripping, so I go to another grocery store or this, ain't you know? My boss at progressive is tripping, so I'll go to State Farm and work. This is Hollywood where you could go from everybody seeing your face making money, paying your bills. You walk away from that job. You might not ever work in Hollywood again and you have put in years and years and time and hours, and hours, and hours and days and years until this moment to add up to this moment. So, coming from somebody who has pushed and sacrificed and missed Christmases with my family, missed holidays with my family behind, pushing to be in the entertainment world to do music and different ventures, it's kind of hard. It's not as easy for some.

Speaker 1:

Like I told y'all, a person like me, I walk away from it like it ain't shit, I don't give a fuck. I don't walk away from it like it ain't shit, I don't give a fuck. I will walk away from it like it ain't shit, I don't give a fuck. But everybody not cut like that, I will say fuck you and I will sleep on the seat. I will sleep on the park bench and cover myself with newspaper before I let somebody take advantage of me. I will sleep my ass on that cold park bench, cover up with newspaper, hold up a sign and say Flo needs money to eat Before I let somebody start be pulling my fucking pants down and grabbing my ass. You got me fucked up. I will paint a mansion. I will paint a full mansion with a nail polish brush before I let that happen. But the ones who get caught up in that, I don't blame them. That's what I'm saying. It's not everybody's, you know everybody. We all ain't built the same. You come with me, I'm smacking fire out your ass, but that's not everybody.

Speaker 1:

But I will say this this is the first time, like this whole era, we in y'all this is the really the first era where these celebrities are so out of control and so pathetic. People don't even want to be famous. People don't even want to be famous. People don't even want to be no damn celebrity. No more People. It's actually. People actually would rather have a nine to five, or rather have a regular life. It never was like that before. You know, we all looked up to celebrities in some way, shape or form as a society. But as a society, right now we starting to realize you celebrities ain't shit. You celebrities are insecure. Y'all really not happy with y'all life. A lot of y'all. Y'all very insecure. Y'all got to lot of y'all um y'all very insecure. Y'all. Y'all gotta force and manipulate people to do shit. Y'all kind of corny.

Speaker 1:

This is the first time in this whole hollywood era I would say probably, especially since, let's say, the 19th I think celebrity world really blew up in the 80s. I think celebrity world really blew up in the 80s, I think. You know, of course we had celebrities since the beginning of time, but I think the modern day celebrity world was really the boom of it was like the 80s, like with Eddie Murphy, you know, michael jackson, uh, mike tyson, michael jordan, uh, tom cruise, like, and I could go on and on. But I, you know prince, the early 80s, I think, is when the celebrity fanatic, crazy shit kind of just went. I think I would call that the boom of the celebrity era.

Speaker 1:

And if you remember the 80s and the 90s, we loved celebrities. Everybody wanted to be a celebrity or wanted to know a celebrity and it was like that forever. And in these last two years we don't even like celebrities. The celebrities we like are like normal people, like me, kai Sinet, like just regular folks. We gravitate as a society to a regular person who maybe has a big following, but they're just a regular person. That is the new celebrity that we like the made-up celebrity, the celebrity that has to be there, that has a representative, that they can't even really be their real self and they have to sell all this glam and glory and everything's perfect. That celebrity is dead. We don't give a fuck about that celebrity, no more. Now. We like regular people who we can relate to.

Speaker 1:

Mail Max has absolutely voted. Celebrity world is so vapid and pathetic. I can't imagine why anyone would want that life. That money doesn't seem worth it. Letting my soul be destroyed. Yeah, we are in an era where people don't give a fuck about celebrities. No more. We actually. We actually think they pathetic. We actually. It's like they have been exposed. Even Diddy, however much time he gets and all that, but that celebrity status that Diddy had like. When you start seeing all the stuff they go through and all the behind-the-scenes shit, you're like you're really a fucked-up dude. You know what I mean. It's like you really like all this time I'm seeing you dancing and drinking and partying and all these new clothes and jewelry, but at the end of the day, you ain't happy and you fucked up. We didn't really know that To the degree that we know it now. You really, you really, you really begging for people's attention, like when people see me on the street they give me so much love, like I'm like how we used to show all the celebrities love back in the day. That's the kind of love when people get me in the street.

Speaker 1:

I went to go see one of my old homies, gene Gene, working down. He's doing some awesome renovations in the East Cleveland Public Library. East Cleveland is one of the urban neighborhoods in Cleveland they're dealing with a lot. Poverty is rampant in East Cleveland but we're building it back up so he's renovating the inside of the library Like he's been doing that for years. It really looks nice. Anyway, he got an older son who works there so he went to go introduce me to his older son. He said, yeah, this is my boy, flo, from back in the day. His son said, oh, I see him. I know him from TikTok. And then James was looking at me and I was just like bro, they know, everywhere I go I'm spotted everywhere I go. If I leave the house and go somewhere where it's public, nine times out of ten somebody's going to know me.

Speaker 1:

But what I like is everybody who say they know me. They just break out into a smile. That was my favorite part of it. It's not even just that people recognize me, it's that they smile like I'm their family member that they hadn't seen in a long time. It's always it's the same smile. Everybody who see me in person, that know me from covering stories and news, they all have the same smile when they see me and that feels good.

Speaker 1:

And so the new celebrity is the regular person who is popular because people like what they do, not because some machine has propped me up and said this is who you're supposed to like, this is who you're supposed to admire. Who you're supposed to admire? No See, these days the algorithm. Pretty much a regular person like me becomes popular because people just like what I do and I'm genuine at what I do and I like to entertain, I like to educate, and a lot of times people be laughing, and I ain't even trying to be funny and I ain't gonna lie, and so that's another thing. I really I have to be honest.

Speaker 1:

I get that from my dad, because all my life, me and my siblings, my dad we used to be cracking up at him when he used to be talking about shit. He wasn't even trying to be cracking up at him. When he used to be talking about shit, he wasn't even trying to be funny. And now I just grew into that same person where even I'm not even trying to be funny, I just explain shit and people be laughing. That is my father, and me and my siblings used to always like, just like if somebody had a business and he had to cuss the manager out, or if he was cussing me out or my brother. It was always hilarious. So like when I'm cooking in here and y'all laughing, that comes from my dad. I have to be honest. That comes from my dad Because all our life we used to be laughing at him, cracking up, and he was never trying to be funny. It was just funny how he talked, how he swore the words he used, the way he said it. And then I look around cause I always be like why is everybody laughing? I ain't even trying to be funny. I really used to be thinking that. Then I'm like Negro, you have turned into your dad. The only difference is you got a podcast and you do content, but that's why, because you are your dad's son. So whatever makes him cuss and make me laugh at him when he not even trying to be funny, I have inherited that ability. So whatever the fuck I do with it, it just fucking happens. But that's where the fucking comic book.

Speaker 1:

Thank you, lord, look at my shout-outs. Y'all. Y'all are too kind. Okay, yeah, let me put up. I got you Tracy. Tracy needs hey y'all. Make sure y'all get y'all tickets for the meet and greet October 4th. It's going to be a blast. Don't get mad at me If you miss out. Don't get mad at me. I'll be like I told your ass. I'm pulling it up for you, tracy. All right, here go the meet and greet. Uh, information, but yeah, y'all. So it really feels good.

Speaker 1:

Man, I like I would only the only celebrity. I would be happy, and that's why God didn't make me one as a rapper, because only the only kind of celebrity. If you want to call me a celebrity or just a famous person, whatever the fuck you want to call me, I don't really give a shit. I just like what I do in general. So I'm happy as fuck. Some people say I'm a celebrity. Some people might feel like I'm not, I don't know, fuck. Some people say I'm a celebrity. Some people might feel like I'm not, I don't know, but what makes it so rewarding is the only way I could be this a person like that that people know is by me being exactly who the fuck I am. I don't, I don't.

Speaker 1:

I wouldn't even like it if I was some character so like, for example, a rapper. If I was a rapper and I had some type of rap persona that was kind of not who I really was. I wouldn't feel good when I met people in person because I would feel like a fake, I would feel phony. But I tell people all the time the reason why I love it is because this same person on this podcast is exactly the same person I am off the podcast. So when people meet me, they meeting the same person that you follow my content, the same person that do the stories. I am exactly that same person. That's why anybody shit see Tucker tell you that Anybody who meets me in real I'm exact. This is who the fuck I am, and so that's what I like about it. I like that I'm. I'm just me.

Speaker 1:

I wouldn't, I couldn't draw it up. I couldn't draw it up any better way. I wouldn't even want to be famous. If I was famous for a character that you think I am, I wouldn't even like it. It would feel weird. Thank you, mel Mack. Shout out Daddy Blow.

Speaker 1:

Oh, melissa says you have a natural humor. A sense of humor is one of the best characteristics to have. Thank you, melissa. I'm the funniest non-comedian online. Yeah, he was my dad. My dad is really awesome, pretty awesome dude Online. Yeah, he was. My dad is really awesome, pretty awesome dude. Big Arse. Put me on Zoom or FaceTime somebody. Yeah, laughter is always the best medicine, so I put the thing in there. All right, I just put the link in the chat. I'm going to put it in there a couple times. Tracy, get y'all a ticket so we can kick it after Judge Seperrani and throw the book at Diddy. We could kick it and party. Yes, everything happens for a reason, y'all, and I told you I'm one of the biggest examples of that. Everything happens for a reason, y'all, and I told you I'm one of the biggest examples of that. Everything happens for a reason.

Speaker 1:

I thought my calling was to be a famous rapper, because y'all know I love music. I'm always singing, I'm always rapping. I taught myself how to make beats and learned how to make beats in like a month and um, I thought that was my calling. I worked my ass off, got played by the industry, made a little noise, but nothing for real. And then here we are, nearly two decades later, and I've become famous for just being me, which feels incredible.

Speaker 1:

I wouldn't want to trade it. I wouldn't want to be no other kind of. I wouldn't want to be a famous basketball player. I wouldn't want to be a famous rapper, to be famous for just being who the fuck I am. That is the best. I can't switch up. I don't have a representative, I tell you all the time.

Speaker 1:

That's why I was never really great at job interviews. That's why I've always pushed to be an entrepreneur, because I'm going to say something in a job interview that you're not supposed to say, and not about being me, just being too fucking straightforward, and I might be like you know, I'm not going to work. Hey look, if I need a day off, I'm going to take a day off. I might say that in a job interview, which is true though, but I don't take days off. Y'all see, I'm always here ready to work, but I'm just saying I don't know how to just say shit and kiss ass. I ain't really never I've been. I'm terrible at that. So I was never the best job interview person. I had great personality for a job interview, but when they ask a certain question and I know you're supposed to say what they want to hear, I always have a. I'm not great at that.

Speaker 1:

So here we are, a nigga with a podcast. Don't ever stop being. That's why we love you and that's why we all recognize real people in this chat. You can look at the chat and you can understand why we all cut from a similar cloth. You can tell oh thanks, tracy.

Speaker 1:

Tracy said you are our family trust, dependable, strong voice. Gentlemen, ethical, intelligent, controlled, god-loving human. Yes, I try to Straight, measure. I try to stay Laid back and measured and poised, poised, poised is something that was always Big in our family. You want to stay poised. You always want to have poised and we complimented you on your poise and my mom Would use it, my grandmother would use it. So I try to stay poised. One of my favorite Things Complimenting you on your poise. My mom would use it, my grandmother would use it. I try to stay poised One of my favorite things. Yeah, I love this chat.

Speaker 1:

We got the best chat. I always bring together the best people. No problem, lily, we don't have many. The reason why I brought all y'all together and the reason why we because, other than that, we don't have many places to go. You know, these chats is either filled with these chats are either filled with obnoxious motherfuckers a lot of times or is filled with people who just want to be pandered to.

Speaker 1:

Not open to everybody's, you know, not open to everybody. This is a rare situation where you could come somewhere where everybody's kind of open to everybody's beliefs and, at the same time, everybody genuinely cares, and that's the unique thing that we got here. Like I said, anybody been following me. No, I don't miss a show If it's a holiday. I'm so consistent and I like this. I'm so consistent If it's a holiday. People be looking for my show because they know sometimes I still will pop in, even on a holiday. But I try I told y'all before I try to make sure I take my holidays so that I don't burn myself out. And so I make sure I take the days that I need to take, because I could be on this bitch every day, but I know I'll burn myself out without even noticing it. Yeah, we definitely still be live. We definitely still be live on the meet and greet.

Speaker 1:

Great articulation and interpretation of how human, how human you are. A lot of us are outspoken, which I call myself an acquired taste. I'm not for everyone yet, and see my community. My platform is for the people who, not for everybody. Everybody can't handle us. What did we say that y'all told me it was a few good men. Everybody can't handle the truth. We are the truth, which means a lot of people can't handle the truth. We are the truth, which means a lot of people can't handle us. But we get to come together and we can handle each other and that's all we need. But that is what my community is a bunch of people who can handle the truth. I can handle it.

Speaker 1:

I tell people all the time People be like man, hey, don't take this the wrong way, I'll be like as long as it ain't disrespect, you ain't got nothing to worry about. But if it's disrespect, now your ass is grass, I'm just throwing that out there. But if it's not disrespect, you can tell me anything you want about me. I invite that Don't hold your tongue, just don't disrespect me. But if you don't. If this with respect, you can say, man, flo, I ain't like the way you did this or that, or Flo, I don't like this or Flo, I don't like that. Or Flo, I wish you could do this. Or Flo, you, that shit don't bother me.

Speaker 1:

I come knowing that we all are imperfect people. So I already know I'm going to do something that's going to bother people around me. So why would I? I don't even understand why people get bent out of shape. I tell people all the time if you got something on your mind, you can tell me. I'm not about to get mad, like I really don't. Why am I getting mad? Because somebody tell me how they honestly feel. I appreciate that. I appreciate honesty. It don't have to necessarily be what the fuck I want to hear, Because if you want honesty, you want truth, then that means you have to be willing to accept shit you don't want to hear Duh. So I don't even understand why people get so upset about a person who speaks truthful.

Speaker 1:

Like I said, now, if you come with some disrespect, then I'm going to light your ass up, because disrespect is a non-negotiable. I don't fucking play about my respect. I will go as far as I need to go if it comes to disrespect. But if it's you telling me something you just don't like you being respectful about it, have at it. Have at it, because I'm going to tell you. I'm going to tell you if it's something on my mind. I'm going to tell you. If it's something on my mind, I'm going to tell you. I'm going to be like look, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, your big head ass. Period, I'm going to say it, so you better say it. Period, I'm gonna say it, so you better say it. Yeah, you gotta be able to take corrective criticism, constructive criticism, bottom line, bottom line. So yeah, yeah, so yeah y'all.
