04:13.29 J. Aundrea So.

04:21.99 Bruce Anthony Just like I don’t know he’d never finished any of his songs I was like oh.

07:38.20 J. Aundrea So.

07:42.71 Bruce Anthony Um, Cat What was the name of that song. You would think this is my favorite song that I would actually know the name of the song but always type in confessions and it pops up, but it’s not confessions. Yes, that’s exactly what it is his throwback. Ah, that’s that’s.

07:46.32 J. Aundrea Right. Okay, is it row back? Ok yeah, but again, that’s a deep cut like that’s my yeah who he he can’t perform that at the Super Bowl yeah

12:57.61 J. Aundrea And.

13:02.91 Bruce Anthony For getting stuff from the internet and not completely vetting it and here I am got something from the internet and was absolutely fooled because I absolutely believed that this was what now there was absolutely somebody who fell off the stage that did happen but the person posting the video did not.

13:09.50 J. Aundrea Yeah.

13:15.17 J. Aundrea Yes, yes, that happened yes.

13:22.65 Bruce Anthony Fall off the stage but the content creation was still funny because she portrayed the person.

But.

13:58.17 J. Aundrea Well could because I figured it wasn’t real I Just saw that letter I mean the little notice under that. Yeah.

14:00.13 Bruce Anthony The content was still funny. You know I really wish and Jay I actually sent this to you earlier as a week and and and and you could have been like hey Bruce you know this? This is the content created this. This wasn’t real.

14:12.37 J. Aundrea Oh to to be I thought I thought we were in on I thought we were both in on the joke. Oh oh well I mean these these performances are weeks and weeks of rehearsals like you can’t teach yourself to skate.

14:17.67 Bruce Anthony No I wasn’t but I mean I am 43 so I guess you know I mean I’m getting older.

14:30.94 Bruce Anthony Learn. She’s to whoever was still rehearsing all that time still fell off the stage So that’s so.

14:31.50 J. Aundrea 2 hours before and think you’re going to perform at the super bowl.

14:38.50 J. Aundrea Yeah, and that’s probably and it you know you’re practicing it for weeks and weeks you do it. You did so many like rehearsals the day of you had it down. It was flawless.

20:09.76 Bruce Anthony You know.

20:15.19 J. Aundrea In-depth investigative work on people’s lives and stuff. We know we don’t know these people and we know that there is more going on behind the scene we know. Ah that Hollywood can be an insidious place. We’ve we’ve watched people that we have loved their work.

21:00.00 Bruce Anthony Right? Okay, yeah, yeah.

21:08.87 J. Aundrea Is very lucky. Ah well not lucky smart in that he built an independent career ah Standup like he funds his standups like he funds his but like that’s that’s his he’s collecting all the money from all these specials. He does.

21:16.39 Bruce Anthony Um.

21:19.26 Bruce Anthony A.

21:27.76 J. Aundrea Tours all that stuff. Um, so he didn’t suffer the financial setback that not as much. Yeah, but should he be a bigger star than he is in film and television. Yeah, yeah.

21:34.10 Bruce Anthony Not as much as yeah because he’s.

21:42.27 Bruce Anthony Yeah, because I mean like like he said and I know we were talking about monate but just talk about cat what he said is he and Kevin Hart kind of started at the same time and Cat Williams was the star Kevin Hart was not the star I have always thought Kevin Hart was funny.

21:45.77 J. Aundrea Um.

21:49.41 J. Aundrea M.

21:55.81 J. Aundrea Yeah, this work.

22:02.10 Bruce Anthony Not as funny as cart Williams um, and but but Kevin knows how to play that game the politic game and some people are just not into that politic game and.

22:08.68 J. Aundrea The politicking. Yeah yeah, no, they just can’t do it. It’s not in them to put on a smile and say yes, sure I can do that I’ll take that sure.

22:24.47 Bruce Anthony Yeah, yeah.

22:27.36 J. Aundrea It’s not in them to do that. Even though you know when people do that it’s it’s not always just because there’s some step and fetch it like it’s it’s also because I know I gotta take my lumps now so that. I can put myself in a position like Kevin is done that I can make the decisions I yeah yeah.

22:47.51 Bruce Anthony Yeah, and that’s ah and and that’s what monique said as well. You know that she took her lumps because ah I think something that gets missed and a lot of the laymans out. There would be like well there’s a lot of money when she said that her and um. Her co-star for her sitcom. We’re making $55000 a piece per episode for a highly rated television show. Most people would look at well that’s a million dollars a season that’s great. Conversely, you had the friends stars in.

23:05.10 J. Aundrea M.

23:17.52 J. Aundrea M.

23:24.66 Bruce Anthony The last season I believe was 2000 making a million plus per episode and it but Jerry was also the executive producer and Jerry’s a little different Jerry’s a little different because that’s a.

23:29.90 J. Aundrea And I can’t even remember what Jerry Seinfeld was making by the end.

23:44.23 Bruce Anthony The parkers are a hit show. Parkers isn’t an iconic show like Seinfeld is I wouldn’t say friends is iconic either. Um I wouldn’t the parkers are not even as iconic as like Martin.

23:44.73 J. Aundrea And.

23:52.27 J. Aundrea Okay.

24:01.81 Bruce Anthony Or the fresh prince If we’re talking about black sitcoms or a different world or the cosby show. But it’s in the next here. It’s a hit show. It’s a.

24:09.75 J. Aundrea I think it also depends on the generation because we weren’t really the moishia generation like we were no like that moishia or like Moishha was on monique the you coast the parkers is a spin off of moitia.

24:17.82 Bruce Anthony Monique.

24:21.62 Bruce Anthony But I remember yeah but this is spinoff after a couple of seasons I was watching moisia when a first aired because me and her are the same age so when they she had the tv show I was watching it the parkers on the part.

24:28.80 J. Aundrea Um, yeah, yeah, but there are people who like they grew up the way we grew up on Martin or yeah markers. Yeah, boy is 1

24:41.56 Bruce Anthony Is how they grew up on the parkers and don’t get me wrong if you go back and watch those parker episodes hall Laious Halllarious ok

24:48.30 J. Aundrea Boy Monique Canti Von oh who is professor ogil v I forgot his name. The.

24:56.90 Bruce Anthony I remember him from the Tv show dream on that’s because that was dream worn was like a nasty sitcom on Hbo which wasn’t porn but was kind of like porn for a eight nine 10 year old boy. Ah.

25:01.52 J. Aundrea Yeah Dorian Wilson that’s it Dorian Wilson

25:09.48 Bruce Anthony Yep, and don’t forget ah they had other characters but the lone white girl on the show was ah on blossom she was 6 from blossom um, just to say that the cast has some diversity but 1 person.

25:18.31 J. Aundrea Yes, yes, Yes, yeah, yeah, is just that That was all you needed. That was all you needed.

25:28.87 Bruce Anthony They were. They were at the community there they were at a community college and it was 1 person but you know what friends had 1 black person the one for the entire run and then they changed the character things the same character but they just pick 2 different black women to play the same character anyway, anyway. Um.

25:37.77 J. Aundrea Yep.

25:41.23 J. Aundrea Right.

25:46.35 Bruce Anthony Yeah, ah she was talking. She was speaking a lot of truths and she was throwing heavy hitters out there see when Kat was attacking people. He was attacking you know Steve Harvey is a heavy hitter he is but not as heavy as Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey

25:49.83 J. Aundrea Yeah.

25:58.23 J. Aundrea Um, and.

26:01.52 J. Aundrea Bright.

26:04.31 Bruce Anthony Will you come at the Queen you best not Miss and she did not miss because she had receipts and you know what Torajah P Henson said the same thing when they were talking when she was talking about what she got paid and the.

26:08.71 J. Aundrea Now.

26:19.60 Bruce Anthony And the surrounding atmosphere on the remake of a color purple. She said the same exact thing is funny because monique says why didn’t people hear you when you were saying these things a long time ago and she said the same reason why you know people weren’t paying attention to cat until he was on your show. It’s the messenger.

26:21.99 J. Aundrea Yeah.

26:36.95 J. Aundrea Yeah, yeah.

26:39.21 Bruce Anthony And I remember telling somebody I’m not gonna throw them under the bus but I remember telling somebody 1 time. It’s not what you say it’s how you say it sometimes the messenger can be perceived as something that’s abrupt.

26:45.44 J. Aundrea M.

26:53.27 J. Aundrea And.

26:55.80 Bruce Anthony And forceful and you can’t receive what it is that they’re trying to telling you even if they’re telling you the truth. You can’t hear it whereas Taraja P Henson is is is complaining and this was Taray has been like everywhere you know and she’s crossed over.

26:58.32 J. Aundrea Right? yeah.

27:09.61 J. Aundrea Um, yeah, yeah.

27:14.70 Bruce Anthony As well. That’s another thing taraji has crossed over monique has never crossed over even her Oscar is from essentially a black movie so in that movie did not precious, never crossed over not for real for real.

27:22.86 J. Aundrea Yes.

27:29.50 J. Aundrea Are people everybody saw it just because it was an Oscar and contender. But I think if it yeah yeah, and and when it it played at cons and and I believe it did well, there’s.

27:34.76 Bruce Anthony That was a reason why they saw it They didn’t they didn’t see it initially just to go see it. It wasn’t.

27:47.48 J. Aundrea As well. So yeah.

27:48.18 Bruce Anthony Oh because it’s a great movie I mean ah ah the young lady that played precious was fantastic. Monique was fantastic. Mariah Carey was fantastic. It was just it was a good move.

27:58.53 J. Aundrea Yeah, shout out to the Borine Bay um she was amazing in that role and and so was monique monique deserved that Oscar because she was she played that role ah with such gravitas and like.

28:04.68 Bruce Anthony Yeah, she did.

28:15.00 J. Aundrea She gave that a woman who was horrible. Um, she she made her ah ah sympathetic. She made you know you had some empathy for her. Um, even though she was a truly horrible person.

28:22.14 Bruce Anthony Yeah, she do.

28:30.86 Bruce Anthony Oh absolutely the worst person and another thing from this monique interview that I think is is important is some people in the black community after cat came out and after monique came out.

28:34.64 J. Aundrea 1

28:48.86 Bruce Anthony Been screaming and yelling why are we telling each tearing each other down in public. You know what I don’t agree with that I don’t think it’s us tearing each other down in public I think that and if it was guess what every demographic.

29:03.21 J. Aundrea And.

29:06.19 Bruce Anthony Tears each other down and and public it is not that big of a deal but when something is wrong. It needs to come to light or else. It don’t are our so never get fixed.

29:12.90 J. Aundrea Yes, and we don’t go ahead. No and we in our community have a very terrible problem with keeping things. Hidden.

29:24.15 Bruce Anthony Yeah, don’t I don’t I have no yes and.

29:30.58 J. Aundrea For some weird respectability politics because we would rather we would rather keep predators in our family than have the outward to have.

29:40.15 Bruce Anthony A.

29:47.19 J. Aundrea Anything tarnish our outward appearance and so if you think that Monique didn’t get hate from her own people after say hell I That’s like I said I was like at first I was like girl please and then I was like wait Check yeah.

29:50.13 Bruce Anthony Yep yep, always.

30:05.10 Bruce Anthony In here.

30:05.90 J. Aundrea So what is wrong with an Oscar award winning a prolific standup comedian because to this day I can put on queens of comedy and I die.

30:18.97 Bruce Anthony By the way she was to queens a comedy what Bernie was to the Kings of comedy. Don’t get me. Don’t get it wrong. All of them were queens but she was the queen bee.

30:27.77 J. Aundrea Um, yeah, she was she yes even some more had to say because some more was initially the closer. She say you’re the closer. Just like Steve Steve was initially the close of Kings of combat. Nope no no now they they told him yet. Well I think she’s right.

30:43.56 Bruce Anthony I mean because we heated but Steve didn’t say you to close it. They had to they had to just say they had to just say um, you got more on this did you get it all out the system.

30:57.89 J. Aundrea She said this and she was like if I was white I’d be Melissa Mccarthy she’s absolutely right that she didn’t get the same. Yeah, she she didn’t get the same opportunity. She didn’t get the same to be on the same trajectory.

31:00.99 Bruce Anthony I Love that part because she’s absolutely right? when she said that I was like boom there you go it all makes sense to me now.

31:15.14 Bruce Anthony E.

31:17.44 J. Aundrea Um, even though it is amazing. She was only in l a for three months before she got her own show. That’s amazing. That’s talented and she’s Hilary like just and can’t help it one of those people that’s just funny. Um.

31:20.41 Bruce Anthony Right? Yeah, that is pretty amazing but she’s also really really funny. Yeah, yeah.

31:34.59 J. Aundrea But yeah I Do believe that she has gotten the unfortunate title of being difficult to work with I think she earned it but not in the way that people are giving it to her. She earned it in that she is demanding what she knows that she’s worth. And that makes you difficult to work with because what they want is somebody to do it for free What they want or to do it for less. So yeah, not just complete, not just complacent complicit.

32:01.14 Bruce Anthony They want somebody to be complacent. You should be thankful for the opportunity. No I’m not thankful for that after right.

32:12.48 J. Aundrea They want you to be to buy into it to buy into this bullshit. Sorry this bull stuff of this is how much you’re worth This is how much it costs to get you and you’ll take it and you’ll.

32:21.63 Bruce Anthony There do.

32:32.37 J. Aundrea Do promotion and press for us and tap dance and she said no.

32:38.77 Bruce Anthony Do I completely agree. Ah she um so for those that don’t know in that in that interview.

32:41.80 J. Aundrea What do you think about her son’s video.

32:52.85 Bruce Anthony She doesn’t really talk. She says my baby’s my baby’s my baby. She doesn’t really talk about the fact that her and her oldest son are really not on the best of terms he came out with a little video talking about some of the reasons why he and his mother are not on the best of terms.

33:10.30 J. Aundrea M.

33:12.18 Bruce Anthony And I will tell you as being the oldest not just the oldest ever If you’re if you’re in a group of siblings. Each sibling has a different parent even though they’re all the same parents. They’re the same people.

33:23.90 J. Aundrea Um, right? yes.

33:28.40 Bruce Anthony But they get different versions of them. So each relationship when you when you have siblings and you say mahamma dad were great to me that was to you that doesn’t mean that I got that same version of them and I will say being the first born is often one of the most difficult.

33:33.34 J. Aundrea Right? Be right.

33:45.44 Bruce Anthony Because you’re literally the test dummy. The most mistakes are typically done with the first born because it’s the first go around you. You don’t you don’t by the second one you try to apply the same scenario sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t work because that once again is a different person.

33:45.57 J. Aundrea Yeah.

33:52.25 J. Aundrea Yeah.

34:02.72 J. Aundrea M.

34:04.97 Bruce Anthony So each child is different but at least it’s it’s just like you know trying to rolloscape right? The first time you try to Rollos Escapee you go bus your ass. But as you continue on the practice. You’ll get better. You’ll try to do tricks and sometimes they won’t work out so you’ll try different things pass down by each child.

34:08.62 J. Aundrea Yeah, yeah.

34:23.49 Bruce Anthony Sometimes it’ll work sometimes it wouldn’t won’t work but initially that first child is the test dummy so they don’t have a good relationship plus she was young and that’s typically what it is the first child is typically that parent is young as they get older become more mature and they have more and more children once again.

34:27.35 J. Aundrea Yeah.

34:35.91 J. Aundrea M.

34:41.94 Bruce Anthony Later children get different versions of that parent and yeah, he was just like yo. You haven’t really tried to resolve any of these things and you always say to me hey when you’re ready to talk come to me. Why is it that I’m the child and I have to come to you to fix an issue between us. You’re the parent.

34:42.62 J. Aundrea M.

34:55.34 J. Aundrea Yeah, yeah.

35:00.19 Bruce Anthony So I felt a lot of what he was saying but she also had receipts because she went on some social media site and said look at these text messages that I don’t reach out to you hear the text messages of of me reaching out to you but he might just be done with it.

35:15.77 J. Aundrea Yeah, yeah, yeah.

35:18.60 Bruce Anthony Right? because he said that in that in that video is like I’m done with it I’m cool. We tried it didn’t work out and he’s he was also right just because it’s your blood. Don’t mean that you gotta accept whatever it is right? We’ve all got family members that we’ve turned our back on because it’s just like you know what.

35:28.25 J. Aundrea Right.

35:35.19 J. Aundrea Yeah.

35:35.96 Bruce Anthony Can’t deal with it. No more. You’re not good for my mental emotional help I don’t care if we’re blood that whole thing with blood should stick together forever. No not if it’s damaging your mental and emotional wellbeing and he’s just like we got so much. He’s got his own kids. She’s a grandmother.

35:49.44 J. Aundrea Yeah.

35:53.23 Bruce Anthony And so he’s like no I’m I’m done trying to focus on a relationship between us. We’ve been there done that never works out. You played a victim. Um, so I’m not gonna have that and parents will play the victim parents will say well I didn’t have this and I didn’t have that. That’s not the point your life is not my life.

36:01.73 J. Aundrea Um.

36:06.65 J. Aundrea Yeah.

36:11.95 Bruce Anthony Just because I might have it easier for you easier than you did economically doesn’t mean that my life was easier. There are different problems that come from different walks of life. So ah.

36:17.22 J. Aundrea Yeah, and and and beyond that you know, not even that we’re different people when you get that response of well I didn’t have that. Okay, well how did that make you feel.

36:34.72 Bruce Anthony In there.

36:36.50 J. Aundrea And do you want me to feel the way you did you know that’s the simple question I your you know, but you know parents memory and a child’s memory are gonna be different right? like ah that’s just the truth but that was the 1 thing about her interview that I was like wa want I felt like.

36:44.71 Bruce Anthony Always there.

36:56.20 J. Aundrea Her attitude toward it was trash. You are the parent here’s your child if you owe him an apology because you were not there to mother him the way you should have been. You don’t get to just say.

36:58.84 Bruce Anthony Um, near near.

37:12.89 J. Aundrea I Told him I’m sorry I’m not gonna apologize forever. He can come to me? No, that’s your child you brought him here right.

37:17.13 Bruce Anthony Yeah, and how did you apologize? Did you apologize by saying I’m sorry I wasn’t there I was going through some things that’s not the proper way to apologize. There’s a book that teaches you how to apologize? there’s like 5 things.

37:32.70 J. Aundrea M.

37:34.90 Bruce Anthony Right? There’s acknowledging you’re wrong I’m going I’m paraphrasing y’all I’m paraphrasing. It’s acknowledging you acknowledging that you’re wrong saying that you’re sorry asking for forgiveness saying that you’re corrector behavior or ah, ah and or won’t repeat it again and there’s something else. There’s something along those lines So a lot of times.

37:49.99 J. Aundrea Yeah, yeah, you.

37:54.33 Bruce Anthony People will just be like sorry sorry for what what are you? sorry for? I’m sorry that you felt that way. That’s not that’s not an apology then you’re not sorry. Yeah.

37:56.40 J. Aundrea Right? What she said she says she didn’t give a punk apology. She did you know she acknowledged the things that but but it doesn’t stop there like because that was years of neglect. It’s gonna take.

38:14.58 Bruce Anthony Um, right.

38:15.16 J. Aundrea Years to make that up. It’s the same thing where you you talk about people losing weight and people are like it’s been 20 minutes and I have not lost £10 yet it didn’t 20 minutes to put it on. It’s not gonna take you 20 minutes to take it off. You don’t when you owe somebody an apology.

38:26.58 Bruce Anthony Ah.

38:31.80 J. Aundrea And you say you really you want to maintain the relationship you have if you want to maintain a relationship you’re looking at me like that because you think I don’t give good apologies but the thing of it is.

38:41.10 Bruce Anthony Like it lay Jim if y’all on the audio platform and not on the video platform i’ give my sister a face kids I’m gonna take a quick detour at though her under the bus.

38:48.80 J. Aundrea You know you you always do this but I give good apologies You’all are never paying attention because you always have it in your mind and you’ll I’ll say something and I’ll be wrong and I’ll be wrong and I’ll be like oh that’s my bad I’m I was wrong and.

39:00.92 Bruce Anthony Um, okay maybe nowadays.

39:05.35 Bruce Anthony Hour.

39:08.64 J. Aundrea Ah, you just be like oh every time John a apologizes. She’d just be like sorry and that’s not true. Yeah.

39:13.86 Bruce Anthony Okay, when you you okay I will give you that I can’t remember the last time one that you had to apologize to me. Um, yeah I can’t remember the last time you actually had to apologize to me. But when you were younger when you were younger and you were I would like yo J you did this and that and you’d be like sorry. That’s how you would apologize back a day now you went no child you you was like in high school.

39:31.96 J. Aundrea Yeah, because because because children don’t have a real concept of what even? ah yeah, a teenager doesn’t have a real concept of what it means to give a good apology.

39:43.40 Bruce Anthony I Always knew how to give great apologies kick.

39:46.89 J. Aundrea No, you didn’t you just you just say a bunch of stuff and you talk for a really really long time.

39:55.23 Bruce Anthony But it sincere though it’s are as help.

39:58.23 J. Aundrea It has some abuses like can we get this over with like who’s you’re doing too much but I thought I that was the 1 thing where I was like you’re being a hypocrite because you ex you are fine.

40:11.11 Bruce Anthony A.

40:17.44 J. Aundrea Dragging out what happened between you and Tyler Perry and Oprah and you’ll talk to anybody who will listen about it and you’re calling for them to be accountable and to come to you with be accountable and pay you and all that stuff but your son has to come to you.

40:19.81 Bruce Anthony Right.

40:36.20 J. Aundrea Everybody’s got to come to you. He doesn’t have the right to be as upset as you are and you mad about money. He’s mad about his mother.

40:46.95 Bruce Anthony Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s that’s that was the part of the interview I was just like ah Monika I was rocking with you for so long. But.

40:55.37 J. Aundrea Um, yeah mac.

40:59.16 Bruce Anthony This ain’t gonna be ah, a situation where you keep getting on your high horse and don’t have some humility about your own stuff.

41:03.15 J. Aundrea And that’s another thing about her. She also buys into this Bs of black respectability politics and oh don’t go out wearing a bonnet and don’t go doing this and that excuse me ma’am. But if you’re not paying for the hair that’s underneath this bonnet. Get get out of my face. Don’t tell me how I can lead the house has some respect for. Don’t nobody say that to other people when they’re just wearing yoga pants and up boots and a messy bun. Nobody’s telling nobody. Nobody’s saying to them. Why don’t you.

41:24.78 Bruce Anthony And.

41:33.42 Bruce Anthony That.

41:39.50 J. Aundrea Put on a dress or something but we got to be we got to be respectable in the way that’s respectable in your definition of respectable which has nothing to do with my character it again has to do with the facade.

41:46.40 Bruce Anthony It’s that old school. Yeah yeah.

41:54.47 Bruce Anthony New there.

41:57.55 J. Aundrea Save it but up the other stuff I believe her I definitely believe her it well I’m never been a fan of Tyler Perry so y’all know I believe that y’all know what that that’s actually not true.

42:03.56 Bruce Anthony Ah, and yeah.

42:06.79 Bruce Anthony You really have not I’d be like that’s how a parent move was good and you like I’m not watching.

42:14.15 J. Aundrea I initially was a fan of Tyler Perry I saw his plays several times I mean front row and then I started to pay more attention to the story. Yes, it’s always the same.

42:17.57 Bruce Anthony Okay. Okay, yeah, the story is always the same. Yeah.

42:30.69 J. Aundrea And that the strongest female character in any of his work is him She is the only independent self-sustained Medea is the only self-sufficient independent.

42:37.90 Bruce Anthony Um, yeah.

42:49.42 J. Aundrea Woman in all of his work. Everybody else had to be saved by some man does usually shamar Moore and a bad cornrow wig.

42:53.59 Bruce Anthony Yeah, that don’t bring up Somema Pan co wrote all that’s enough of this. Let’s get to some black inventions. Next.

43:05.16 J. Aundrea Yes.

43:12.88 Bruce Anthony So we go from Monique and her messiness to another black fact and a black inventor. So on the last episode I talked about the inventor of the potato chip.

43:15.49 J. Aundrea Think.

43:27.41 J. Aundrea He yes I saw that because you say we wouldn’t have no Doritos who wouldnt have no cheetos.

43:32.12 Bruce Anthony no no cheetos no nothing and then I talked about the fact that everybody has a ring or security camera but the entire concept was created by Marie Brown a black woman.

43:44.35 J. Aundrea Um, and.

43:47.17 J. Aundrea Yes, and I did know yeah I do know but I’m I’m going to say I don’t so that you can tell the audience. No.

43:50.68 Bruce Anthony You know what else I didn’t know that you know what else black people created.

44:00.76 Bruce Anthony Okay, well if you know just tell now if you know just tell people because the gas mask is black people created the gas masks and and I bet you’re wondering to yourself the gas mask What is that I’m about to get to it. So.

44:07.00 J. Aundrea No I mean I know because I saw the rundown for the show. Yeah.

44:15.59 J. Aundrea Um.

44:20.36 Bruce Anthony Garrett Morgan was the pioneer of the gas mass he was born in 1877 ah and let’s let’s talk about what the gas mass actually did so there were safety concerns Morgan witnessed a triangle shirt waist company fire in 1911

44:39.55 J. Aundrea Which was a huge huge is ah the Triangle shirtwas company that fire since so many people died that’s like a huge thing in history that fire now. Yeah.

44:39.79 Bruce Anthony Ah, where.

44:48.67 Bruce Anthony Well I didn’t know about that now that’s you know and I’m the historian one hundred and forty six garment workers tragically lost their lives due to inadequate safety measures this kind of sparked his interest and put a driving a battery in his back to feed to see how can we save lives. This was the basis of what he wanted to do. He wanted to save live so he created the gas mash which was designed to prevent smoke inhalation a problem a problem that has stymied inventors for years smoke inhalation is responsible for about 77% of fire related deaths.

45:09.77 J. Aundrea Anyone.

45:26.65 Bruce Anthony Mostly from carbon monoxide poisoning Morgan created a mass that that proved it’s worth in 1916 during a national gas pocket explosion. It was one hundred and twenty feet beneath Lake Erie I believe us in ah Cleveland I believe lake area is in Cleveland.

45:45.48 J. Aundrea Mm ok.

45:45.68 Bruce Anthony Yes, it is in Cleveland ah, the explosion, the explosion occurred during work on Cleveland’s newest Waterworks Tunnel The Blast Left 11 turn workers dead and 11 of 18 rescuer rescuers also died due to a lack of proper safety equipment. Desperate to save people’s lives. Ah the Cleveland police turned to Morgan and his gas mask invention Morgan and his brother frank we can’t forget about Frank because you know siblings oftentime siblings oftentime get forgotten in these great inventions Marie Brown

46:14.61 J. Aundrea Please don’t forget about frank.

46:24.45 Bruce Anthony Created Whatt was Cctv and later became security cameras that going down evolution became a ring clan ring cam Alber Brown her husband was right there with her so we can’t not acknowledge him. We can’t not acknowledge Frank Frank might not have had a hand in the invention but he had a hand of saving lives.

46:30.72 J. Aundrea Yeah, yes, yeah, right. Frank Frank was there.

46:44.68 Bruce Anthony Ah, he and his brother frank was there so Morgan and Frank drove down to the lake front and successfully rescued several men all because of his invention. How does it work. The gas mass known as the Morgan Safety hood and smoke protector. Had several unique features that set it apart from other mask of its time it had a canvas hood. The mask was a canvashood that covered the entire head. It had 2 breathing tubes that hung low close to the ground. The design took advantage of the fact that hot air and therefore smoke and toxic gases rise. The tubes drew in cleaner air from closer to the ground. He also had wet spons wet sponges not spons wet sponges. It was to cool the air being breathed by the user and a charcoal filter and that was used to remove the toxins.

47:35.55 J. Aundrea M.

47:37.94 Bruce Anthony He’s won numerous awards and 1914 he received the first grand prize at the second international exposition of safety and sanitation for the invention of the gas masks for his bravery at lake area disaster in 1916 he received a Carnegie medal and the medal of bravery from the city of Erie. He was made an honorary member of the international association of fire engineers. Let me repeat that again. He was made an honorary honorary member of the international association of fire engineers why because he saved a lot of lives. He saved a lot of firefighters.

48:00.50 J. Aundrea Wow.

48:11.91 J. Aundrea Yeah.

48:16.10 Bruce Anthony Lives first responders lives. Um, also I’m gonna speed through some of these awards because you got a lot of wars y’all he got a lot of awards. But 1 thing he also is got you know credit for is the creation of the stop light.

48:17.54 J. Aundrea Yes.

48:23.55 J. Aundrea Yeah.

48:35.80 J. Aundrea I didn’t know that too. Oh.

48:37.35 Bruce Anthony Where he invented the traffic and invented the traffic signal ah and and for all those fraternity people out there. He’s Alpha fire Alpha y’all know who you’all are.

48:48.83 J. Aundrea Alpha Fire Alpha Salpha man.

48:53.99 Bruce Anthony We one of my closest friends is in Alpha down in yo Neck Woods Hot lata and then we have a family member that’s also an alpha We got a couple of friends that are alphas so that’s their claim to fame I had to give this little shot out So that’s a little black fat.

49:00.58 J. Aundrea Um, yeah, yes, um, asked.

49:13.87 Bruce Anthony Ah, for another black history month celebration and like I said it’s not gonna just be black history month i’mmanna start giving these black facts all the time we ain’t gonna just celebrate it in February we’re gonna celebrate it all year long because we need to start getting our credit that we deserve when people talk about. Know what have black people done for this country. Well one we built it and and 2 we are responsible for some of the greatest inventions in this country period. So and at a time. ah oh yeah ah so

49:34.34 J. Aundrea Yeah.

49:40.73 J. Aundrea Um, yeah, like all of like all of American music.

49:49.85 Bruce Anthony That was another thing this is interesting here’s a black fact Beyonce released some country songs.

49:55.24 J. Aundrea Yes, and if you been following her is not the first country song that she’s had um she is a texan. Um, so and and but don’t forget. We also invented country music. Yeah.

50:00.25 Bruce Anthony No.

50:11.13 Bruce Anthony Yes, we invented with all forms of music in this country is originally from black people everything? Well no even ah, country music was.

50:13.45 J. Aundrea American music. Yes. Or a derivative of.

50:27.81 Bruce Anthony Think it was started at started out as bluegrass because Bluegrass was originally originated by black people. Rock and roll was originated by black people even though these are genres now that are dominated by white people. They were created by black people.

51:24.50 Bruce Anthony The ring camera is technology is just evolved and it’s connected to a wi-fi so there are wires running all around the place. But that’s the ring cam wasn’t this incredible original creation now people Ben had security cams says I mean.
