Speaker 1: people eat. What I was trying to tell jokes so
5:45
Speaker 1: you can sing and people can eat right because you

6:10
Speaker 1: We're not working with that. So how long is this
6:12
Speaker 1: show on the books? Actually? Um, in December we got
6:17
Speaker 1: a call and um and they were just like, you know,
6:20
Speaker 1: and that's so. I mean, it was a blessing because
6:22
Speaker 1: a friend of mine was like, don't you don't you
6:24

6:28
Speaker 1: of course, so you know, she says, okay, let me
6:30
Speaker 1: call you back. And then the young lady from the
6:32
Speaker 1: City Winery said, could you do it on the twenty nine?
6:34
Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, wow, that's not absolutely I can and
6:39
Speaker 1: we are not will so we are so excited about it.
6:42
Speaker 1: My band is is excited. We're gonna perform probably forty
6:46
Speaker 1: five minutes to an hour, but we're gonna take you
6:48
Speaker 1: through the decades. Everybody's I just pray that everyone has
6:51
Speaker 1: a good time. Well they will, they will. Like My
6:54
Speaker 1: whole thing is that you know already you know I'm
6:56
Speaker 1: thinking about I'm a woke out there, you know thing
6:59
Speaker 1: I got. I gotta build the hype right because it's
7:02
Speaker 1: all about the intro. I'm gonna need that comedian to
7:04
Speaker 1: come out. It's all about It's all about that. But
7:09
Speaker 1: the thing that I fell in love and found you
7:12
Speaker 1: on radio okay, and that was on your syndicated show.
7:15
Speaker 1: So tell us about that journey of of you know,
7:18
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to the comedians later, but but the
7:21
Speaker 1: journey of what you're doing now it's an entrepreneur as
7:25
Speaker 1: as a female and in a male dominated business. All
7:29
Speaker 1: businesses for some reason dominated by men, even even women fashion,
7:32
Speaker 1: they're making it. That's okay, So so tell us about that.
7:36
Speaker 1: Because there's something you're doing is very unique. That's why
7:40
Speaker 1: we have to we have to put it out there,
7:42
Speaker 1: talk about it. Well. The thing of it is is um,
7:45
Speaker 1: having this platform, I feel like I have to be
7:47
Speaker 1: responsible with it. Um. It's one thing to have the platform,
7:51
Speaker 1: because you know, people love you as a radio host.
7:54
Speaker 1: That's one thing. But even with that, because they do,
7:57
Speaker 1: I want to take advantage of this opportunity to bring
8:00
Speaker 1: my friends along and help me, you know, reach back
8:03
Speaker 1: into our communities. UM. Through the platform, I have something
8:06
Speaker 1: called mobs and I know that you've been a part
8:08
Speaker 1: of that as well. UM. We do something annually called
8:11
Speaker 1: UM Celebrities cooking for calls, and I reach out to
8:13
Speaker 1: my celebrity friends like Rushan McDonald's SPECIALI and he came
8:17
Speaker 1: through looking especially over holidays, but I hated making But anyway, um, UM,
8:24
Speaker 1: I reach out to them and asked them to you know,
8:26
Speaker 1: prepare their favorite meal and their favorite dish so that
8:29
Speaker 1: we can go and feed, um those that are less
8:32
Speaker 1: fortunate and wrap our arms around them and love on
8:35
Speaker 1: them and um, you know, give them gifts and and whatnot.
8:38
Speaker 1: So that's that's one of the things that I do. UM.
8:40
Speaker 1: But everywhere that I have an opportunity to speak to mothers, UM,
8:45
Speaker 1: I take the opportunity to do that because I am
8:47
Speaker 1: a mother of three but they've grown now, pause and
8:50
Speaker 1: I got two grandkids. But UM, one thing that I
8:53
Speaker 1: did not have a lot of I have my mother,
8:55
Speaker 1: but I was not in the same city with my mother,
8:58
Speaker 1: and I needed guidance, support, directions, someone in the point
9:01
Speaker 1: me in the right direction, sometimes just right. That was
9:04
Speaker 1: with an arms reach, And I think that makes the
9:06
Speaker 1: difference when you're raising children. Um, sometimes you know, parents
9:12
Speaker 1: go through things where the father and the mother are
9:14
Speaker 1: not you know, on good terms. But how do you
9:17
Speaker 1: how do you make that work anyway? You know, you
9:20
Speaker 1: still have to make it work for the children. So
9:23
Speaker 1: everywhere that I can speak to young ladies and mothers,
9:26
Speaker 1: I take the opportunity to do that. Well, that's wonderful
9:29
Speaker 1: because it's as a as a as they say, it's
9:31
Speaker 1: needed because of our sick sisters. So I've always find
9:35
Speaker 1: these conversations relatable. Um, not all the marriages have have lasted,
9:40
Speaker 1: and you know that's where life is cener the country's
9:43
Speaker 1: marriage in the country is divorced. So but it is.
9:47
Speaker 1: But the kids can become, uh you know, collateral damage
9:51
Speaker 1: that there. You know, always tell them they didn't ask
9:53
Speaker 1: to come into this world. So when they come here,
9:55
Speaker 1: we should we should understand that they didn't ask to
9:57
Speaker 1: so they should be priority in our conversations. Priority is
10:00
Speaker 1: a right word, and that's really key. Now you have
10:03
Speaker 1: a very special brother, yes, and in Greenville, right Greenville,
10:07
Speaker 1: about him, I call him Dr Martin Luther King's other
10:11
Speaker 1: younger brothers, but his name is Pastor Curtis Johnson UM
10:15
Speaker 1: in radio as well, but he is also the pastor.
10:18
Speaker 1: But he is more more than anything in activists. He's
10:20
Speaker 1: a community activist and he's connected with Elder Brenese King
10:24
Speaker 1: and a lot of the efforts that she's doing globally
10:27
Speaker 1: UM to promote the principles Dr Martin Luther King. So
10:31
Speaker 1: big big event there and uh for today, well yes,
10:35
Speaker 1: what in Atlanta, Georgia. You know, he is actually a
10:38
Speaker 1: part of a huge event which is the Commemorative UM
10:41
Speaker 1: celebration of the legacy of Dr King. He is a
10:44
Speaker 1: part of it, and um, yeah, well that's awesome. The
10:48
Speaker 1: thing about it is that I know when you show
10:49
Speaker 1: syndicated into Greenville is a big deal. Yeah. We were,
10:53
Speaker 1: we were like rivals and that was so crazy. That's
10:56
Speaker 1: why I want you to talk about the fact that
10:57
Speaker 1: you know he was our radio then you coming into
10:59
Speaker 1: the don't talk about exactly. It was so funny because
11:03
Speaker 1: you know, my my brother has been like the rated,
11:05
Speaker 1: the top rated radio host in Greenville, South Carolina on
11:08
Speaker 1: all formats for years and so now you know when
11:12
Speaker 1: this new format of gospel would come in. We were
11:15
Speaker 1: actually the top ones, but we were rivals. It's just
11:19
Speaker 1: like he's on the other station and she's on the
11:21
Speaker 1: other station. But we're brother and sister, so I would
11:23
Speaker 1: have events that he couldn't promote. Right, She's like, but
11:29
Speaker 1: that's my sister. I'm like, I'm like, and I'm gonna
11:31
Speaker 1: make it real hard for you and do it at
11:32
Speaker 1: our church. That's a little evil play. You did Two
11:40
Speaker 1: Devils and an Angel, Devils and Another Evil Person. That's
11:43
Speaker 1: what that name that played with George Wallace and Jathan
11:46
Speaker 1: Brown show called two Devils and an Angel replaced an
11:49
Speaker 1: Angel and another evil person that that portrays herself as
11:53
Speaker 1: an angel. Well, I wanted everybody to guess who the
11:55
Speaker 1: angel would be. You're gonna be right back with more
11:59
Speaker 1: m girl adult a McCoy. We're gonna talk about something
12:01
Speaker 1: that in you're talking notes here that says that that
12:05
Speaker 1: breaking the stigma of what church looks like. In Yes,
12:09
Speaker 1: my next guest, she's here right next to me. She's
12:12
Speaker 1: the studio. They got cameras rolling, they're taking photos. You know,
12:15
Speaker 1: a lot of things gonna go viral off this, but
12:17
Speaker 1: you know the factor back when I get one in
12:19
Speaker 1: the studio because I'm all my interviews generally on the phone,
12:21
Speaker 1: you know, because I'm not because they don't want to
12:24
Speaker 1: come and see me. It's just my lifestyle sometimes forces
12:27
Speaker 1: me to come in and get out. That's exactly. But
12:29
Speaker 1: I am suited like this all you are always suited.
12:31
Speaker 1: I never. I am suited like this all the time.
12:34
Speaker 1: This room could be empty, not gonna round the corner.
12:39
Speaker 1: They can't think something went wrong with ra Sean if
12:42
Speaker 1: he comes non suited something that So you know when
12:47
Speaker 1: when our life and our relationship, you know, I'm a
12:51
Speaker 1: call guy, you call me, I will react and then
12:54
Speaker 1: they just explained to me and I look at my schedule.
12:56
Speaker 1: My staff knows that I've been that with all my life.
13:00
Speaker 1: You know, I've come from filth Wall. I have succesters,
13:02
Speaker 1: two brothers. And I was saying this in the early
13:04
Speaker 1: interview that you know, when I was fifteen, I was
13:08
Speaker 1: my father was a truck driver and my mentors because
13:12
Speaker 1: my first job was at the packing company or forklift drivers.
13:17
Speaker 1: People aren't loaded trucks. That was. And so despite being
13:21
Speaker 1: it uh a student probably getting any college in the country.
13:26
Speaker 1: When I graduated from high school because my mentors were
13:30
Speaker 1: forklift drivers and people are loaded trucks. When I was eighteen,
13:32
Speaker 1: I wanted to be a forkliff driver because it was
13:35
Speaker 1: all you can see, that's all I can see. And
13:37
Speaker 1: guess what, I went and got a job as a
13:39
Speaker 1: forklife driver and was happy. I'm very happy, very happy.
13:42
Speaker 1: And it's not so much that I had limited goals.
13:45
Speaker 1: I just didn't have a big picture to see. And
13:47
Speaker 1: so that's why when I when I when I'm talking
13:50
Speaker 1: to you, I really wanted people want to people to
13:52
Speaker 1: hear your story because it's never the story that they
13:55
Speaker 1: here now, it's the journey to the story. Because we
13:57
Speaker 1: all have to make these different shifts. And when you
13:59
Speaker 1: make these shifts, they enable you to grow as an
14:02
Speaker 1: individual and also compel you to be something that you
14:06
Speaker 1: didn't see yourself being. And so when I when I'm
14:09
Speaker 1: talking to you and and and you and inspiration to me,
14:12
Speaker 1: you know, you always put a smile on my faith,
14:14
Speaker 1: beautiful beautiful woman inside, beautiful person outside, great voice. And
14:19
Speaker 1: when you have six million listeners, what responsibility does that
14:24
Speaker 1: put on you? It puts on mare responsibility to um
14:28
Speaker 1: project my experience and what I mean by that is.
14:33
Speaker 1: I've gone through some things and I've told you, Um,
14:36
Speaker 1: when I moved down to Atlanta, Georgia, I had a
14:39
Speaker 1: dollar to my name and I had to beg Kroger
14:42
Speaker 1: for a job. They gave me a job, and that
14:45
Speaker 1: was just as you were saying the forklib Driver like.
14:47
Speaker 1: At that time, Kroger was like what I wanted. That's
14:51
Speaker 1: the place I could work is that's all I can see.
14:53
Speaker 1: But it took a tremendous amount of faith for me,
14:57
Speaker 1: faith and desire to see something else and to go
15:00
Speaker 1: after something else. Um, you know, I started to see
15:03
Speaker 1: what was going on around me. I see so many
15:06
Speaker 1: affluent African Americans that we're doing great things, and they
15:09
Speaker 1: were at my age, and I'm like, wait a minute,
15:12
Speaker 1: I don't have to just do this. I could do
15:14
Speaker 1: other things. And it's just as my vision started to grow,
15:18
Speaker 1: I started to grow and go after certain things. And
15:21
Speaker 1: that's and I feel like, you know, with six million people,
15:24
Speaker 1: I really feel like I'm talking to a large percentage
15:28
Speaker 1: of those people are dreaming too. Do you see what
15:32
Speaker 1: I mean? And if I can inspire your dream by
15:35
Speaker 1: letting you know that this what you see right now
15:39
Speaker 1: was all a dream well, you know the thing about it,
15:41
Speaker 1: because we're uh. I always called people within the Muhammad,
15:45
Speaker 1: don't be humble, shout your success, tell people how great
15:48
Speaker 1: you can be. You should be treated. Yes, that's why
15:52
Speaker 1: I called Muhammaddi era because when he did it, I
15:54
Speaker 1: would tell people to note this that corporations have been
15:57
Speaker 1: screaming day the best for years are best Hamburger, best
16:02
Speaker 1: pair of slacks, best insurance. That's what. That's what marketing
16:05
Speaker 1: and branding is. Social media has allowed us to be
16:08
Speaker 1: able to do that. Now, I said, social media's or
16:11
Speaker 1: social media platforms are basically your own press conferences. You know,
16:15
Speaker 1: you don't don't see people in the most you know,
16:17
Speaker 1: we're gonna call a press conferences and social Okay, I
16:20
Speaker 1: just posted it already and it just goes out because
16:23
Speaker 1: it has changed the way we do and communicate out
16:26
Speaker 1: and sometimes a lot of people make mistakes, you know,
16:29
Speaker 1: when they post the own thing and then they try
16:30
Speaker 1: to take it down. I realized somebody's already screenshot and
16:33
Speaker 1: then they can go back in the history on you.
16:35
Speaker 1: So know, there're a responsibility that comes with social media. Now,
16:39
Speaker 1: we talked about six million listeners. I know you're an
16:41
Speaker 1: also a social media influencer. Talk about that responsibility. Boy,
16:46
Speaker 1: that is a responsibility. You know. Sometimes I actually I
16:50
Speaker 1: haven't have accountability around me that sometimes you know, I can.
16:54
Speaker 1: I can be real passionate about certain things, and then
16:57
Speaker 1: my passion can overtake my brand if I allow it,
17:01
Speaker 1: So I have accountability. When I know I'm getting real
17:04
Speaker 1: hot and heated about something, I'll go to that group
17:07
Speaker 1: and say, should I post this? What do you think? Absolutely?
17:10
Speaker 1: Thank you, yes you, because sometimes you have to understand
17:14
Speaker 1: that what you think would come invite you. And really,
17:18
Speaker 1: because of the fact that we all know that you
17:21
Speaker 1: can say black white, you can say green yellow, people
17:24
Speaker 1: will hear what they want to hear. And sometimes, you know,
17:27
Speaker 1: as much as you try to bring clarity to the situation,
17:30
Speaker 1: people can shape it to the direction they want to
17:32
Speaker 1: tell the story. That's right what you call editing, you know,
17:36
Speaker 1: and it's really sad. So with that being said, you
17:40
Speaker 1: in that gospel world, those church gods know someone living
17:45
Speaker 1: the life of perfection, Come on, tell him nothing, Come
17:48
Speaker 1: on because they all socially right, right, law have mercy.
17:52
Speaker 1: God is good. How do you deal with that? Girl?
17:57
Speaker 1: God is good? People? That thing right? Yeah, man, listen,
18:00
Speaker 1: who do you know what you're talking to? Right? Right?
18:03
Speaker 1: What is a church person? Listen that? What is the
18:06
Speaker 1: church person? What is there? There are several and you
18:09
Speaker 1: know you have to just stand. You know, I get
18:15
Speaker 1: excited about this part. But actually, you know, I was
18:18
Speaker 1: raised in church, you know, and so I know church
18:21
Speaker 1: like the back of my hand. But then I run
18:23
Speaker 1: into some people that are not living a truth. You
18:27
Speaker 1: are living you are comfortably living a lie and then
18:30
Speaker 1: you're covering yourself up with God is good all the time. Well,
18:33
Speaker 1: yes that is true, but are you the truth? Right?
18:36
Speaker 1: You see what I mean? So, yeah, that's it. Just
18:40
Speaker 1: we go through Well, you know the thing about I'm
18:43
Speaker 1: not trying to push too much information out, but I
18:45
Speaker 1: just know that I remember several years ago Steve Harvey
18:50
Speaker 1: and uh Kurt Franklin tour again. So I have first
18:53
Speaker 1: hand awareness. Yes that Brandon and marketing. That's particular market
18:58
Speaker 1: because that was my responsibility. Sold out tours. Yeah, get
19:01
Speaker 1: these dates sold out? He did it to y'all had
19:04
Speaker 1: a comedian who was known for cussing, and I had
19:07
Speaker 1: Kurt Franklin, who's all gospel. Come and guess what teenagers
19:11
Speaker 1: and kids could come to his show. So immediately when
19:14
Speaker 1: I put the tickets over, say, I said eighteen and
19:18
Speaker 1: oh lord, I didn't know because I'm just selling ticket.
19:21
Speaker 1: Get the call from Kurt Preople, Huh chickens, Uh eighteen
19:25
Speaker 1: and up? Or we have kids and teenagers and brine,
19:32
Speaker 1: we gotta change that. And they said, Okay, what I'm
19:34
Speaker 1: gonna do? Kurt? Okay, can they not sit on the
19:36
Speaker 1: front brow I said, canny, can they just can they
19:39
Speaker 1: be on the third or fourth fifth? Because I know
19:42
Speaker 1: that Steve Harvey came. He he's probably do it not
19:46
Speaker 1: because he's family, a few kids. He's family, a few kids, straight,
19:49
Speaker 1: he's straight family now. But just kind of did that
19:56
Speaker 1: video for Bishop TV Jakes. Okay, you know that was
20:00
Speaker 1: the first time he did the show with our cousins,
20:02
Speaker 1: so he wasn't all the way that and so so
20:04
Speaker 1: I understood that when I when I was trying to
20:06
Speaker 1: figure out, at first I started marketing on you know,
20:09
Speaker 1: gospel stations. Then well, you know that's my market was
20:12
Speaker 1: selling no tickets because then I realized that, okay, who
20:16
Speaker 1: are church people? Then I started going back to the
20:19
Speaker 1: R and B stations. Okay stations, my tickets started moving.
20:25
Speaker 1: So that's why I have to ask the question, who
20:26
Speaker 1: are church people? Because when I was over there on
20:29
Speaker 1: the church gospel stations but selling no tickets, when I
20:33
Speaker 1: was when my e blasts were going out to the
20:36
Speaker 1: All Gospels centric but selling no tickets, or as soon
20:40
Speaker 1: as I went over there too what they were called centers,
20:44
Speaker 1: I started selling tickets. That's what I'm talking about. So
20:48
Speaker 1: so that's why I asked that question, not to be
20:50
Speaker 1: you know, condescendant, because I don't know who they are.
20:54
Speaker 1: All I know is that they listened to Agree, they
20:58
Speaker 1: listened to the Pendographs, they listen to Scott the Kim,
21:02
Speaker 1: they listen to Anthony Hamlets. Okay, they listen to Keith.
21:10
Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. Listen, I'm going through kind of
21:12
Speaker 1: the same thing because City Winery is a winery, yes,
21:16
Speaker 1: and they're saying, well, the gospel people are not going
21:19
Speaker 1: to buy those tickets, and I'm like, oh, yes, they will, absolutely,
21:23
Speaker 1: absolutely absolutely. It's really funny. See now, if you own
21:27
Speaker 1: a gospel station talking about it, then anything they go
21:30
Speaker 1: I can't come. But just take that same interview over
21:33
Speaker 1: to R and B station and the same person, the
21:36
Speaker 1: same person here, girl, I'm gonna get those tickets Tomorrow's
21:42
Speaker 1: not tell him he's not telling the life. That's the
21:45
Speaker 1: same part. That's that's at least of my question that
21:47
Speaker 1: you have my breaking the states, right, Jesus was like
21:54
Speaker 1: that a lot of times. You know what we've done
21:57
Speaker 1: in the past. It will be And then Alvin Garrett

22:08
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you something. He's amazing. But then, of
22:10
Speaker 1: course it would me and really interesting that you say
22:13
Speaker 1: that because he's son and introducing. Hold on, wait a minute,
22:17
Speaker 1: hold on, I thought you were talking about performing because
22:20
