[00:00:54] Bruce Anthony: I'm gonna be talking about anxiety through the generations, and then I'm gonna be giving you guys a sneak peek. [00:01:00] Just a little bit of a peek inside our patreon show after hours uncensored, but that's enough of the intro. Let's get to the show.  

[00:01:15] Headline Story: Cyber Nightmare: When Private Photos Go Public 👾📸

[00:01:15] Bruce Anthony: Ladies and gentlemen, this is ripped from the headlines. There was a news report that I saw today. I was gonna talk about something else. Maybe I'll talk about it later. Maybe I will never talk about it 'cause it was gonna be, uh, personal and I was gonna open up, but I don't feel like doing [00:01:30] it right now. So what I'm gonna do instead is talk about this story that I saw on the news no more than two hours ago that made me completely readjust this entire show.

[00:01:40] Bruce Anthony: Because this was not gonna be the first segment, but I feel like this is important. What am I talking about? There was a cybersecurity hack for a database and colleges by this one person and this one person got a whole lot of students news and sexually [00:02:00] explicit videos. Let me get into it. So Matthew Weiss, a former assistant football coach at the University of Michigan, has been indicted on 24 federal charges, including unauthorized computer access and agitated identity theft.

[00:02:15] Bruce Anthony: Aggravated, not agitated. I mean, people that he stole from are agitated, but. Aggravated identity theft. Weiss allegedly orchestrated a large scale hacking operation, targeting [00:02:30] thousands of college students, primarily female, to access their private data, including intimate photos and videos. Here are the key details of the case.

[00:02:39] Bruce Anthony: Weisser Weiss served as a co offensive coordinator at the University of Michigan from 2021 until his termination of January, 2023. Before that, he worked for the Baltimore Ravens and Stanford University. From 2015 to January 20, 23, 8 years, Weiss reportedly accessed database [00:03:00] maintained by Keefer Development sys services, a third party vendor used by over 100 colleges and universities.

[00:03:06] Bruce Anthony: He downloaded personal identifiable information and medical data of more than 150,000 athletes. Weiss specifically targeted female as athletes based on their school affiliation, athletic history, and physical characteristics. He used the stolen data to compromise passwords and gain access [00:03:30] to their social media, email, and cloud storage accounts.

[00:03:33] Bruce Anthony: Prosecutors allege. He sought private photos and videos intended only for intimate partners. Here's his charges. He's got 14 counts of unauthorized computer access, 10 counts of aggravated identity theft. Each count carries significant penalties. Unauthorized computer access could result to up to five years of prison per count.

[00:03:55] Bruce Anthony: Why agitated identity theft? I did it again. Aggravated [00:04:00] identity theft carries a mandatory minimum sentence of two years per count. The University of Michigan fired Weiss in January, 2023 after he failed to cooperate with investigation into alleged computer crimes. The university has declined the common further on allegations, but is named as a defendant in the lawsuit by the victims.

[00:04:19] Bruce Anthony: Victims have expressed feelings of portrayal by both Weiss and the institutions involved. At least three class action lawsuits have been filed against we Weiss, the University of Michigan. [00:04:30] Its rets and Keefer development, SY services for negligence and cybersecurity practices that allowed Weiss to exploit sensitive student data.

[00:04:39] Bruce Anthony: One victim described the situation as terrifying, highlighting the breach of trust. Placed in the university federal court documents. Do not confirm whether Weiss has legal representation or if he is currently detained. Attempts to reach him for a comment have been unsuccessful.

[00:04:57] Behind the Curtain: Privacy Reflections & Creepy Encounters 👀

[00:04:57] Bruce Anthony: So why do I wanna talk about this?[00:05:00]

[00:05:00] Bruce Anthony: First of all, this is a crazy story. My initial reaction and stories like this is a chuckle. Chuckle because, because, okay. Like who's gonna go through all of this to see some nudes? Like, okay, I get it. All right. Oh, I guess I wasn't gonna get, I, I said I wasn't gonna get personal, but I guess I am. I like when I get nudes from women, I like it.

[00:05:23] Bruce Anthony: Who wouldn't like it? I'm sure there's some people out there that love getting nudes from men. Like [00:05:30] nudes is cool. It's a, I don't know what to call it. It's a kind of an adrenaline, adrenaline rush. I like to get the nudes from people that wanna send them to me. One time I met an actress, just a regular actress.

[00:05:45] Bruce Anthony: She had been on several shows. I was really excited to meet her and I sent the picture of me and her to a couple of friends of mine. My friends were like, who is that? I was like, oh, she's been on a couple of shows. They immediately scoured the internet [00:06:00] to find, to try and find nudes for her, and then put it into group chat and be like, this her, and I'm like.

[00:06:06] Bruce Anthony: I feel violated and this, these are nudes of me. Like, why would you immediately go to that? Like, why are you such a, such a creep? And I, I will say that, you know, the women, I have a lot of female friends and I will admit, you know, guys, we are we more than a little creepy, more than a little bit. So my initial [00:06:30] reaction was to chuckle because like, bruh, porn is free on the internet.

[00:06:36] Bruce Anthony: OnlyFans don't cost that much. So I suppose I see advertisements for $5 or $3 to join OnlyFans. You can get all the nude you want. I also wanted to chuckle because there are parts of this story that I left out purposely because I want to address 'em now, and I'm sorry for laughing, but this is what my [00:07:00] man did.

[00:07:01] Bruce Anthony: In order to hack the system, he hacked the system. He, in order to get passwords to like iCloud to be able to access the private data of these female athletes, he would Google them, get on their social medias to try and find their mother's maiden name and more important, and details of their birthdays and dog names and things like that to be able to.[00:07:30]

[00:07:30] Bruce Anthony: Get the passwords to access their iCloud now said that over 150,000 people were hacked. Do you, and I know he did this over a span of eight years, but do you know how much time that takes? That takes a lot of time just to see some nudes. Like, think about that. Just to see [00:08:00] some news. When you can see news on the internet for free all the time.

[00:08:04] Bruce Anthony: All the time. He's sitting up there like Sherlock Holmes of the internet. I. Going into social media profiles, Snapchats, Instagrams, tiktoks, Facebook's falling down rabbit holes to find other family members plugging in any possibility of what could potentially be a password to get [00:08:30] passwords. For over 150,000.

[00:08:33] Bruce Anthony: Now, he didn't have to do this for all 150,000. I'm being hyperbolic here, but even if it was 10, okay, that's a lot of time and effort to see some nudes and what is with men being so creepy. I look, I met a young lady recently just out and about. Like we were sitting at the bar, you know, drinking, having some drinks or [00:09:00] whatever, and we were hitting it off.

[00:09:01] Bruce Anthony: You know, I'm a single man, you know, I'm just a bachelor looking for a partner. Someone who knows how to ride, lemme stop. But you know, I'm just chilling. We just communicating. Just talking. And anybody who has met me in person when I've been drinking. Uh, knows that I get super friendly when I've been drinking.

[00:09:20] Bruce Anthony: That's when my personality comes out or what y'all see. Uh, that's when I'm really talkative. I'm inquisitive, you know, I ask [00:09:30] questions. I'm really messy. That's what I found out. I'm really, really messy. But my messiness is not to be harmful or hurtful in any way. I'm genuinely interested in people's stories.

[00:09:43] Bruce Anthony: This's part of the reason why I started this podcast, right? I'm genuinely interested in people. People fascinate me and I, I wanna know as much as I can about you 'cause I love learning about people. So me and this young lady talking, and we are vibing 'cause because she's, I'm cracking jokes, [00:10:00] you know what I'm saying?

[00:10:00] Bruce Anthony: Doing what I do, just the way players play all day every day. I don't know what else to say, right? And we're vibing. And I was like, yeah, you know, I don't know how old she is. I don't know how old she is. And somehow that comes up. Ladies and gentlemen, y'all know I'm about to turn 45 in just a couple of months.

[00:10:23] Bruce Anthony: I'm 44 years old currently. I don't know if I look [00:10:30] 44. Some people say, I don't, some people say, nah, you look 44. I, I don't know. I don't know what 44 is supposed to look like. Okay. She obviously didn't know how old I was. She dropped the knowledge that she was 24. I said, ma'am, I was in college when you were born.

[00:10:49] Bruce Anthony: I was in college. When you were born? I was immediately turned off 'cause she's too young for me now. She didn't look like a kid, but she's too young for me. She looked like a a, she was a professional woman. [00:11:00] Right, but she's too young for me. As soon as I found that age, as soon as I found out what that age was, I'm, I'm good with that, shorty.

[00:11:06] Bruce Anthony: I'm cool because it's, there's too much of a gulf in between us, uh, about where we are in our lives and, and like it won't work. You, you're still young enough, you need to go find your way. You need to go have some mistakes. You need to go have some relationships and get your heart broken before you find that right person.

[00:11:23] Bruce Anthony: 'cause I'm gonna mess up your whole world 'cause you gonna think I'm perfect and want to be with me and then, you know. I might think that you [00:11:30] okay. Or vice versa, you know, that happens from time to time. So this dude, Weiss is specifically trying to look at college age women, and I'm sorry, but college age is anywhere from 17 to 23 maybe if you start college young.

[00:11:49] Bruce Anthony: 17. Maybe you have one of those birthdays where you started kindergarten four, you're 17 when you're entering into college. Or maybe you got one of those late birthdays and instead of graduating when you're 22, you graduate when you're [00:12:00] 23. Right? Like all those things are possible. So let's say the age range is 17 to 23.

[00:12:05] Bruce Anthony: The young lady I met was 24 2 young for me, right? She was dressed in professional attire 'cause she had just come from work. So she looked and carried herself as older. These are college kids. If you go on college campuses, these kids look like kids. So he is hacking all these computers of these college female athletes just [00:12:30] to get their nudes and sexual, sexually explicit videos.

[00:12:33] Bruce Anthony: I can't leave that out. Right? Sexually explicit videos and it's just like, what are we doing here? Like, seriously, what are we doing here?

[00:12:46] Bruce Anthony: 150 people. And just the intricacies of trying to find out what these passwords were when porn, once again is free.[00:13:00]

[00:13:01] Bruce Anthony: But then I take off my immature hat, and then I look at. The privacy of these people just being torn away from 'em and how hurting that has to be to feel helpless. This was on their phones, maybe they just wanted to keep it to themselves. You know, I take selfies in the bathroom when [00:13:30] I'm monitoring my weight, uh, mass gain, or if I'm leaning out, you know.

[00:13:37] Bruce Anthony: Women do the same thing. Maybe the nudes that were in their phone is just to get an idea of their body. Fitness is a very big thing in this country now, and especially for the younger generation. They're taking care of themselves, so maybe these pictures are on their phone because they're just gauging how their [00:14:00] body is changing.

[00:14:02] Bruce Anthony: Maybe they are sending nudes to, to different people or romantic partners, even not romantic partners. Just France. You know, I've had female friends that were legitimately, well, I guess. I guess this one particular friend, me, and me and her had history, but we were friends at that point that because I'm a trainer, sent me what would be classified as nudes, but they weren't because they were of the purpose of [00:14:30] where do I need to work on things and asking for my suggestions is because I'd already seen her naked.

[00:14:36] Bruce Anthony: It wasn't that big of a deal, but to feel like I have this private moment. Maybe it's a sexually explicit video between two partners and they decided to be, you know, spruce up the relationship. I don't know why you gotta spruce up the relationship if you 17 to 23, but you know, I don't know what it's like to be 17 to 23 in this day and age because those kids [00:15:00] had porn readily available to them as soon as they had their own phone, as soon as they had their own computer.

[00:15:06] Bruce Anthony: So maybe you do gotta spice things up at a young age, I didn't. I don't even got spice saying something now, but that's neither here nor there. We talking about this particular situation and, and this special moment has now been stolen from you. 'cause a dude wanted to be Sherlock Holmes on the internet.[00:15:30]

[00:15:31] Bruce Anthony: This guy should never get a football job again. And I'm just talking about in college. It's talking about the NFL now. It looks like if convicted, he's facing some real time. It was 14 counts for the, 14 counts for the unauthorized computer access, and then 10 counts for the aggravated identity theft.

[00:15:55] Bruce Anthony: And each one, you know, each count carries a minimum [00:16:00] sentence of like two years. Uh, some of 'em carry. Up to five years. So you got 24 counts in total. Like, he could be in jail for a long time. They might run him concurrently, maybe they might just pile him on top because he violated so many people. I, I, I saw the video and [00:16:30] you know me.

[00:16:30] Bruce Anthony: I find the humor. I can find humor in just about anything. And it is, there is the humor aspect of it, of the effort of which he decided to put forth just to be able to get, once again nudes that are free on the internet. 150,000 people violated. Yeah, my man needs to go to jail. That's for sure. [00:17:00] And, and, and for all you people out there and, and I'm talking to my men out here, fellas, lean in, lean in.

[00:17:10] Bruce Anthony: I gotta tell y'all something, and I mean this from the bottom of my heart. And with all sincerity and humility, stop being creepy. It's weird. Just stop being creepy. [00:17:30]

[00:17:32] Bruce Anthony: I had a conversation.

[00:17:33] Into the Abyss: Unraveling Generational Anxiety 🔍

[00:17:33] Bruce Anthony: I'm not gonna say it was interesting. I felt that I was dragged into a dumb conversation and this, this person listens to the show and yeah, I'm talking about you, but I told you that I, I thought it was a dumb conversation in the first place, but I thought it was dumb from the standpoint of where they were coming from it. But I thought it was an interesting, I. Concept to examine. Let me get to the point here. Okay, so I was talking to somebody earlier today and they were telling me a story of another [00:18:00] person that they know who was going to, uh, an alternative therapy. They couldn't gimme the name of it. I couldn't find it on the internet to find out what it was, but it was breathing techniques and eye techniques for situations when they get triggered that would help them calm.

[00:18:19] Bruce Anthony: And the, the person that was telling me about this said that the person that is going to this therapy is young and what do they have to feel anxious about or be nervous or anything about? And I was like, [00:18:30] well, that person's the Gen Z person. First of all, we all have anxiety. I have been open on this podcast.

[00:18:37] Bruce Anthony: About my anxiety. It is. I, I've often said, and I even told my ex-wife, y'all, y'all don't y'all be proud of me. Right? I reached out to my ex-wife to talk about some other stuff, and in that conversation, I, I told her that I mentioned her in one of the podcasts that [00:19:00] I had done. To check it out and I gave her credit for identifying to me my anxiety issues.

[00:19:10] Bruce Anthony: I didn't know what it was, didn't put a pin on it, thought everybody experienced the things that I experienced. Come to find out there are a lot of people that I experienced, things that I experienced, but it is wasn't as common as I thought it was. I thought just everybody experienced these things in these.

[00:19:27] Bruce Anthony: Things that you just deal with, but panic attacks are [00:19:30] completely different. Ballgame. I had three panic attacks in one year in 2021. No, 2022. I had three panic attacks that year, was going through some things and didn't even realize I was going through 'em. And, uh, that was my anxiety, right? Like, anxiety is real.

[00:19:51] Bruce Anthony: So it's not something I'm ashamed of. It's not, it's, it's outta my control, right? Like I would choose not to have anxiety if [00:20:00] I could make that choice. But I have generalized anxiety and it's. Bad, you know? But I take measures to try and minimize how the anxiety can affect me. And so when I was talking to this person, the person was just like, what do they have to worry about?

[00:20:19] Bruce Anthony: What do they have anxiety for These? That generation is just weak. And this person is a millennial and they were talking about a Gen Z person. And every generation always [00:20:30] says that the generation behind them is the weakest. And I, and I've gotten into arguments with, you know, people that are boomers and Gen X per, I'm a millennial.

[00:20:42] Bruce Anthony: I'm in between Gen X and millennials. Like I'm, I'm neither one of them, but both of them at the same time. And I've said, I don't think Gen Z is weaker. Not at all. I think they are bombarded and have to deal with a lot more. Then what we had to [00:21:00] deal with, and the person I was talking to was like, nah, that's crazy.

[00:21:02] Bruce Anthony: That's ridiculous. I was like, okay, well, I, uh, okay. I, I, I laid out some examples for that person and they just didn't want, didn't wanna hear it. And so I was like, okay, well I'm done with this conversation and it's like talking to a tree. I'm like, this is pointless. But I did a little bit of research. As I would normally do, and I was like, the question that I found interesting [00:21:30] is the anxiety levels per generation who had more anxiety, gen X, millennials or Gen Z, I could, I didn't even look into boomers because boomers weren't even recognizing anxiety when they had it.

[00:21:48] Bruce Anthony: So I'm not, I'm not even including boomers in it, even though they had it. They had it. You know what I'm saying? So let's talk about it. All right, so let's start with Gen X. Gen X is often known [00:22:00] as the forgotten middle child. They're the anxiety levels for gener. Generation X is moderate compared to younger generations and a clinical study they scored around a five.

[00:22:11] Bruce Anthony: On a clinical anxiety scale, their anxiety is often tied to financial stress, job security, and concerns about retirement savings. Many Gen Xers grew up during economic instability, like the.com crash in the 2008 financial crisis, which [00:22:30] shaped their pragmatic approach to life, but also contributed to lingering stress.

[00:22:35] Bruce Anthony: So, yeah, you know, I mean, those things are real. Those things will absolutely cause anxiety. You know, boomers would say, well that's, that's not a real deal. We was dealing with a war. Well, guess what? Gen X was dealing with a war too. So were millennials. So was Gen Z America has consistently been in a war.

[00:22:56] Bruce Anthony: The only time that we weren't in official, [00:23:00] well, technically we haven't been in an official war since World War ii. Right? The Korean War was not labeled a war. It's a conflict. Uh, I don't even think the Korean War got conflict. I think they got something else. But the Congress has the pass it to be classified as a war.

[00:23:19] Bruce Anthony: That's the reason why we call it the, you say it's Vietnam War and we were at war, but technically it wasn't labeled a war. It's the Vietnam conflict. Kinda like [00:23:30] English is the majority spoken language in the United States. But, and I'm sure this is gonna be a shock to a lot of people out there, English is not the official language of the United States.

[00:23:44] Bruce Anthony: What is the official language of the United States? The United States doesn't have an official language. So Vietnam War, Korean War, desert Storm, the war in a, the war in Afghanistan, the Iraq war, none of those were [00:24:00] actually labeled war because you had to label 'em war by through Congress, but. We've been in consistent fights, and even when we weren't in actual military conflict, we were in a cold war, right?

[00:24:17] Bruce Anthony: It's been happening since 1939. It's been consistent. So every generation has a claim of, we've been at war, we've been in constant fighting, we've been in constant terror. Every [00:24:30] generation has that claim. So boomers would just say nobody had it like us. Okay? Everybody wants to make their story the most dramatic story, to be the biggest hero that they can be.

[00:24:43] Bruce Anthony: But fact of the matter is each generation faces their own struggle. We need to recognize that, but that was Gen X. What about millennials? Millennials are known as the transitional generation. Millennials experience slightly higher anxiety levels than Gen X. [00:25:00] Their gen, their anxiety score is about a 6.1, whereas Gen X is anxiety.

[00:25:07] Bruce Anthony: Score was five, so that we done made a step up. We going on? We going up one point. One point. Now, what does that mean In the grand scheme of things, I don't know, but this is what I do know. If you got a pain, I got heel spurs in my heels right now. Right now, I would say the pain is about, oh, actually don't even feel that bad right now.

[00:25:27] Bruce Anthony: But as soon as I get up to walk, that [00:25:30] pain is about a six. When I wake up in the morning, that pain is above a seven, but if I'm lucky, it's only a seven. I know the difference between going from that six to that seven. I feel it. You feel the difference in that anxiety going from that five to that 6.1. But where do most of the anxiety pressures come from?

[00:25:52] Bruce Anthony: Financial pressures such as student loan debt and delayed career dev advancement due to the great recession [00:26:00] and other major contributors social media, which introduced comparison culture and fomo. Y'all know what FOMO is. Fear of missing out, accelerated their mental health struggles, or I should say our mental health struggles.

[00:26:14] Bruce Anthony: So look, dig this here. Gen X is, I guess MTV generation, like when MTV started, like my mom's youngest sisters who are technically, technically my aunts, 'cause [00:26:30] you know, they're my mom's sisters, but they're eight and nine years older than me. So I don't even call them aunt. They're like big sisters. And I have a, a cousin who's same age as them.

[00:26:43] Bruce Anthony: He's like my big brother. Right. They're that gener, generation X. They are Philly entrenched in Gen X, they were MTV kids. Like when MTV became a thing, like they remember it, they were MTV kids before that. The only time that [00:27:00] you had to compare yourself to anything was like celebrities and movies and television shows, and they were celebrities like you.

[00:27:08] Bruce Anthony: Unless you had some real cockiness about you, you didn't really compare yourself to celebrities. I'm sure it happened, but you didn't really compare yourself to celebrities. You compared yourself to the people on the street, right? That's what you compared yourself to. Now imagine that street becomes a city, becomes a state, becomes a country, [00:27:30] becomes a continent, becomes the entire earth.

[00:27:32] Bruce Anthony: That's what social media did. So now you're not just comparing yourself to the people down the street. Or across town or in the next town over or in the next state. Over. Now you're comparing yourself to everybody your age range, hopefully. Hopefully you're not comparing yourself to, to other people that are not in the age range.

[00:27:53] Bruce Anthony: But if you are comparing yourself, hopefully you're staying in your age range, but now you're comparing yourself to everybody in [00:28:00] your age range. Everybody and people only post. Well, not only the majority of time people, you know, post good stuff, like they living like that or they posting pictures of their bodies when their body is, is super fit, or they got the, they take the right lighting.

[00:28:20] Bruce Anthony: You know, women will take 17,000 pictures in the same spot to get to that one right picture that they'll post, which is the best picture. So you're seeing [00:28:30] most people at their absolute best, and you're comparing yourself to it. On top of that, you got these financial struggles and you just like, man, how am I gonna make my way through?

[00:28:39] Bruce Anthony: Meanwhile, Tony over there is big balling. If y'all don't know what big balling is, then uh, you must be Gen Z. But Tony over there big bawling. We like, how's Tony getting it? Like we both went to college together. My GPA was higher. My job when I first came out was better. Like how is Tony over there getting it?

[00:28:58] Bruce Anthony: Tony is lying to you, [00:29:00] but you don't know that. Or even if you do know that, you're not recognizing that in the moment. So that comparison will make you not feel good about yourself. You start to lack self-esteem. Of comparisons to other people, which leads to anxiety, which leads to depression, which are mental health issues.

[00:29:22] Bruce Anthony: You see how this goes on? And this wasn't something that Gen X really had to experience because [00:29:30] their world wasn't as big. Millennials are the first ones in that digital age that really had to, the world really expanded for them. But not as much as Gen Z, which is the digital native generation. All right.

[00:29:49] Bruce Anthony: Gen Z reports the highest levels of anxiety among all generations, scoring a 6.6 on the clinical anxiety scale. Their struggles [00:30:00] include cyber bullying over exposure to global crisis, EAN anxiety and social media induced. Perfectionism. Unlike previous generation, gen Z is less likely to seek professional help from mental health issues relying instead on social media or family members for support.

[00:30:22] Bruce Anthony: What that means is, is they'll recognize it, but they ain't gonna really go, but that's because they're still young and they ain't got no money. [00:30:30] So they gotta go to family members, uh, and other people for support. But if millennials were the first ones of the world getting big, gen Z entered in that world, millennials came into that world.

[00:30:47] Bruce Anthony: We went from analog to digital. There was a transition. It still stark the difference between the two, but we still had, you know, just talking about [00:31:00] earlier, we still, we still remember going to Blockbuster. You know what I'm saying? Waiting for that Tuesday and that Friday night release to go get the new movies rush to the movie theater, heading to the new release wall, seeing the 25 different DVD boxes on there.

[00:31:15] Bruce Anthony: DVDs. DVDs, not even Blu-ray DVDs, the DVD boxes, you know, deciding on what movie we was going watch. Meanwhile, looking at the little candy section saying, Hey look, I got to get me some Twizzlers. Why do we like Twizzlerss? I don't know, but got to [00:31:30] get me some twizzlerss with the popcorn. The Reese's Pieces and the Reese's Pieces cups.

[00:31:34] Bruce Anthony: I'm gonna have myself a good little time tonight with my two movies. I'm gonna get my little two day new release rental and my little seven day uh, movie. 'cause I gotta go old school. Then we got to the point where we got streaming, but it was a gradual process. Gen Z entered that world instantaneous.

[00:31:52] Bruce Anthony: What they have now, what they want now, they get now anxiety from [00:32:00] birth. Well. Maybe not from exactly from birth, but Gen Alpha will be from birth. 'cause the phone is already in their hands. As toddlers. As toddlers. So when the person I was talking to talked to me and said that they don't, they don't have anything to feel anxious about, and I made these points to 'em, I was like, it's a telephone and everything associated with that cell phone to click a [00:32:30] button.

[00:32:31] Bruce Anthony: See people from all over the world and you're comparing yourself. And also millennials didn't have to deal with cyber bullying. These kids are growing up with their worst moments being filmed and put on the internet. None of my, okay, I'm about to tell this story. I don't know if I told this story before.

[00:32:57] Bruce Anthony: This is an embarrassing story. I was at a party, a high [00:33:00] school senior year. We were drinking beer and it was another school's party 'cause my, one of my boys went to another high school. So it was that school party. And me, I'm Mackin as I do, you know, like I said, just the way players play. I'm macking on this tin and it's a strong vibe.

[00:33:17] Bruce Anthony: We vibing with each other. I gotta pee. I can't find a bathroom. It's cold outside, but I'm gonna go outside and pee. Now here's the problem. I pulled my, [00:33:30] you know, everything out and I guess I had two streams and didn't notice it for my fellas out there. You understand what I'm saying? I had two streams and I didn't notice it, and one of the streams is going directly to the front of my pants.

[00:33:43] Bruce Anthony: So it looked like I peed. I pissed myself. That's what it looked like. So the way I entered and exited the house, there was a washer and dryer right there. So I take my pants, I came, I find some fabric softener, and I grab the pants and I throw 'em in the dryer. In [00:34:00] hopes, in hopes. 'cause when I say it looked like a pee to myself, I mean, it was.

[00:34:07] Bruce Anthony: It was a large, if you watching the video, it was the size of my face. That's how big the stain was. I really had to go to the bathroom. I peed like a racehorse, so I throw the pants in the dryer, try to dry ' em. They don't dry all the way, but it's the nineties and I got a big shirt. So what I say to myself is, it's dry enough, I'm just going to [00:34:30] cover it with my shirt, and eventually the color will go away.

[00:34:33] Bruce Anthony: Hopefully, right. I go in there and start macking on the girl. Somehow my shirt comes up. That stain is visible. She yells out this dude un peed on himself. I didn't. So I'm convi, I'm trying to convince everybody this is what happened. You know, I was just out there in bag. I didn't pee on myself, it pee, hit my pants.

[00:34:52] Bruce Anthony: But it was so, it was such a large stay that it really legitimately peed on. Looked like I peed on myself. I didn't by the way, I would've admit [00:35:00] it. 'cause I think that would be funny. And it was almost 30 years ago, but I didn't imagine if that had been on videotape. My boys are jerks. They would've recorded it and my one boy would've put it on the internet.

[00:35:13] Bruce Anthony: It'd still be out there following me around. That's what Gen Z deals with. We didn't have to experience that. Everything bad that we did got forgotten unless there's a picture, because video cameras didn't really come out until, [00:35:30] I don't know, 2000 8, 9, 10, maybe. It was a while. It was a long time before smartphones were out.

[00:35:39] Bruce Anthony: My first smartphone, I think it was in 2006, it was a Microsoft, so it was a Microsoft, it was a Microsoft smartphone and it did have camera and I could capture a little bit of video. So, okay, let's go 2006 'cause that's, yeah, let's go. 2006. I was 26 years old. Most millennials were, [00:36:00] I think the youngest millennial would've been, I don't know, 16.

[00:36:06] Bruce Anthony: Right. You're like, you're almost, you're almost out of it. And it's not like the, the quality of these videos were good at that time. It was just something that we missed out on. We didn't understand cyber bullying. We didn't understand going home. School not following us home. We only talked to our main [00:36:30] friends or neighborhood kids that went to school with us when we got home.

[00:36:34] Bruce Anthony: Not the whole school, but now these kids have access to each other, twenty four seven through their phones, FaceTiming, whatever, texting, Snapchatting, you know, nobody, nobody tweets each other anymore. But, but you know what I mean? You can't escape the world. It's always there. It's always present. This leads [00:37:00] to major anxiety and instead of each generation.

[00:37:07] Bruce Anthony: Calling the next generation soft and they didn't have it like we had it because, you know, that's something that our parents say to us, right? Well you don't, you didn't have it. Like I had it growing up this and we hate it. 'cause he's like, well, you don't understand what it's like to to live in my world. I credit my father because my father will say to us, [00:37:30] y'all, even though you guys make more money.

[00:37:34] Bruce Anthony: Me and your mom, did y'all have more expenses? More expenses than we had? We didn't have a cell phone bill. You, you might've had cable. You might not had cable. There was sometimes we didn't have cable, right? You need internet. You have to have internet. And these bills are ridiculous. It's a hundred dollars a month for the internet.

[00:37:54] Bruce Anthony: It's a hundred dollars a month for your cell phone. You know, rents and mortgages are more expensive, so yes, [00:38:00] yes. We make more money than our parents. But things are so much more expensive. And that's what sometimes boomers don't understand. And like, we, we bought a house. Yeah, you bought a house for $5,000.

[00:38:14] Bruce Anthony: I'm sorry.

[00:38:15] Boomers vs Zoomers: Breaking the Cycle of Judgment 🔄❤️

[00:38:15] Bruce Anthony: They're not selling four bedroom, four bath, 10,000 square foot houses for $5,000 anymore. That's just not happening. You know, I'm, I'm exaggerating, but you know what I mean. We need to have empathy and understanding for when each generation [00:38:30] tells you their struggle. It's not a trauma comparison, it's not a struggle comparison.

[00:38:35] Bruce Anthony: Every generation's had their struggles. If Gen Z is out here telling you, I. That they have severe anxiety issues. It's not for no reason. They have them for very valid reasons. Don't diminish it. Don't not acknowledge it because you think that those things wouldn't give you anxiety. 'cause you never went through it, you never experienced [00:39:00] it.

[00:39:00] Bruce Anthony: How can you speak on what you don't know? You can't. You can't have understanding, but you can have empathy.

[00:39:08] Hey Gen Z & Alpha: This One’s For You (No Cap) 🚀🧠

[00:39:08] Bruce Anthony: So this goes out to all my, all my people out there. 'cause Gen Z, gen Alpha is next. If, if anxiety continues to trend up like it is for Gen X, millennials and Gen Z, what do you think is gonna be for Gen Alpha?

[00:39:28] Bruce Anthony: It's gonna be extremely high. [00:39:30] When they become a, when not even adults, when they're in middle school, high school, it's gonna be extremely high. They're gonna have their own struggles that none of us could even imagine going through. So Gen Z, this is a message for you for Gen Alpha. When they tell you what they going through, just shut up and listen.

[00:39:51] Bruce Anthony: Just like you wanting millennials to shut up and listen to you and millennials do the same thing for Gen Z and Gen Alpha. 'cause you just wanted Gen X to shut up and listen [00:40:00] to you and Gen X thinking that you know it all. Remember how you feel about boomers talking to you? Yeah, that's what you sound like now.

[00:40:08] Bruce Anthony: And is that really what you want to be? I don't know. Just some food for thought. If you want to think.

[00:42:17] J. Aundrea: It is.

[00:42:18] Bruce Anthony: It, it, yeah, it is.

[00:42:19] Bruce Anthony: It's work.

[00:42:20] J. Aundrea: And had to do research and write notes and it's, we're working

[00:42:24] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. We're working. I'm glad you came prepared too. Cause I was, I walked out to the living [00:42:30] room with our brother today and I was like, I'm about to do a show in a couple of hours and don't know what the hell we're going to talk about.

[00:42:35] J. Aundrea: We had,

[00:42:38] Bruce Anthony: I'm starting to think that I don't need to.

[00:42:42] Bruce Anthony: Super over prepare and be so meticulous as you would say, uh, in preparation for these shows and just, you gotta have a rundown. You gotta have some notes, but not as much. I be having pages of notes. [00:43:00] Well,

[00:43:00] J. Aundrea: less, I need to do more. And when we come up and find that balance, then the show is good. So like, you pull back a little bit on, on being so meticulous and I come with actual notes, and things to talk about, then we have a good show.

[00:43:23] Bruce Anthony: now that you all into AI, the notes is a lot easier.

[00:43:27] J. Aundrea: No, these, I, I still have [00:43:30] handwritten,

[00:43:30] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. No, you know, you,

[00:43:31] J. Aundrea: pad, notes.

[00:43:33] Bruce Anthony: you know, you can, Put them in the little notes section or a little word process and put them to the side.

[00:43:39] J. Aundrea: I know, I, so, I was trying to do that, but then clicking back and forth. Between my notes and different things. So it was, it's just easier to have them written down where I can glance at it real quick. And maybe if I brought the other screen over and I had both screens up, which I

[00:43:59] Bruce Anthony: what I used to [00:44:00] do. That's what I used to do But I think it was pulling too much like from the the computer. It was working too hard I've just been putting them on my phone or on my ipad And just looking down in front of me and i'm just like that's good enough I don't know why i'm trying to be all particular this this I don't even think you can see my uh, my phone You know Yep.

[00:44:20] Bruce Anthony: You can't even see my phone. So I'm like, no, motherfucker. This is good. Besides my eyes are always, I'd rather people know that I'm reading

[00:44:28] J. Aundrea: Yeah,

[00:44:28] Bruce Anthony: my eyes ain't[00:44:30]

[00:44:30] J. Aundrea: right

[00:44:30] Bruce Anthony: So you know what it is, what it is

[00:44:33] Backstage Pass: The Raw Reality of Our Show 🎙️💥🎥

[00:44:33] J. Aundrea: you know what that's just part of just watching us is that you see that yeah We are looking at notes. We we are sometimes Researching things laugh

[00:44:43] Bruce Anthony: sometimes. Hey, look,

[00:44:44] J. Aundrea: it

[00:44:44] Bruce Anthony: sometimes.

[00:44:45] J. Aundrea: like you know, so You just seeing the, uh, you just seeing a little bit of background. That's all that is. And, you know, we are notorious for letting y'all in behind the scenes, even though I don't like doing that, but cause it's usually [00:45:00] some shit I'm not doing or some shit going wrong cause of my internet or something, something like this.

[00:45:05] J. Aundrea: It's always, some shit about me. So I never liked to like, Oh, do we have to let people in behind the scenes? No, ladies and gentlemen, cause my sister don't do shit! HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA

[00:45:17] Bruce Anthony: always said I was a snitch and I'm, I'm beginning to believe you now, like, yeah, I'd be snitching, I'd be snitching,

[00:45:25] J. Aundrea: had to tell the audience that they don't need to know just [00:45:30] wait for people to get to know me they'll realize I hate shit like you don't have to

[00:45:33] Bruce Anthony: no, no, it's not that you ain't shit. I wouldn't have, I wouldn't, we wouldn't be doing the show together if you wasn't shit. It's just, you're not as meticulous as me. However, you're I don't need to be as meticulous as I am in life.

[00:45:48] J. Aundrea: right

[00:45:50] Bruce Anthony: So,

[00:45:51] J. Aundrea: I look at the run down and I'm like he gonna read all that? what,

[00:45:57] Bruce Anthony: oh,

[00:45:57] J. Aundrea: talk?

[00:45:58] Flying Solo: Why Talking to Myself Isn’t Crazy (Promise!) 🎤😅

[00:45:58] Bruce Anthony: the show that I did, the show [00:46:00] that released on Friday, it was almost six pages. of rundown because I had to give the definition of fascism. I had to give the history of Hitler

[00:46:10] J. Aundrea: yeah,

[00:46:10] Bruce Anthony: rise of Hitler. And then I had to do the comparative of Trump and how, how they're similar. So I had a complete, it was a complete rundown,

[00:46:18] J. Aundrea: When I, when I think about you do the show yourself, then I'm like, okay, you want to have a meticulous rundown because you're not playing off anybody or nobody else's [00:46:30] chiming in. It's just you with the audience. So to keep yourself focused, there's no way I could do a show by myself. It will be all over the place because I have ADHD.

[00:46:40] Bruce Anthony: but supposedly you say I got it too. So I don't know.

[00:46:43] J. Aundrea: definitely believe that you do.

[00:46:45] J. Aundrea: Hyperactive. Thank you. That's for

[00:46:47] Bruce Anthony: am hyperactive. I actually got from one of our really loyal listeners texted me yesterday and was like, That show that I did on Friday, they were like, that was a really great show. [00:47:00] It was really good. And, and there's so much insecurity when I do it by myself, there is no feedback.

[00:47:07] Bruce Anthony: It is me.

[00:47:08] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:47:09] Bruce Anthony: I kind of go like I'm there, but I kind of leave, like, I don't know. It's kind of like an out of body experience because I'm going, I know what I'm talking about, but I don't know what I say. Like, I don't know what I'm saying.

[00:47:26] J. Aundrea: Yes.

[00:47:27] Bruce Anthony: I'm just going.

[00:47:28] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:47:28] Bruce Anthony: And so like, I'm, [00:47:30] I'm there, but I'm not, it's a hard, it's a hard thing to explain for the people that's listening and watching.

[00:47:34] Bruce Anthony: This is a hard thing to explain. I'm just going, just know that I did the preparation beforehand so that I can just

[00:47:42] J. Aundrea: People

[00:47:43] Bruce Anthony: go.

[00:47:43] J. Aundrea: zone.

[00:47:44] Bruce Anthony: I don't,

[00:47:45] J. Aundrea: zone.

[00:47:45] Bruce Anthony: I don't even know if it's, I don't even know if it's cause I've been in the zone in like sports where you're hyper focused. This is not hyper focused. This is, I do not remember what I say.

[00:47:55] Bruce Anthony: I go back and listen to it sometimes. And I was like, because you know me. Soon as [00:48:00] the show is over, I'm like, I thought that was a shit show.

[00:48:02] J. Aundrea: Yes.

[00:48:02] Bruce Anthony: ever think the shit is good. Actually, I think today that we did the show today was really good.

[00:48:07] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:48:08] Bruce Anthony: but I don't have, I, I'm always like, this is a shit show.

[00:48:11] Bruce Anthony: When I do it by myself, it's the worst.

[00:48:13] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:48:13] Bruce Anthony: is the fucking worst. And then I go back to listen to it and I'd be like, yo, that was actually a good point that I made. I don't remember what the fuck I'd be saying. I was like, that's actually a good point. Oh, I liked the way I connected that this is actually good.

[00:48:25] Bruce Anthony: So when I get that, like it reaffirms like, okay, like.[00:48:30]

[00:48:30] J. Aundrea: I understand exactly what you're saying. I feel that way about singing and taking photos.

[00:48:35] Bruce Anthony: And I always tell you, how many times have you failed in those scenarios? Why do you still have that anxiety?

[00:48:43] J. Aundrea: I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm betting 5, 000, I'm betting 500.

[00:48:48] Bruce Anthony: Yeah, because 5, 000 is fantastic. So at

[00:48:52] J. Aundrea: no,

[00:48:52] Bruce Anthony: 500, I think is what you went.

[00:48:53] J. Aundrea: I'm betting 500. Like that's, that's I feel. Like I hear every [00:49:00] missed note. I see every like upturned collar on a photograph or shadow that I wish wasn't there. Like I see. All of the mistakes. And then it's also that thing of like, you don't know how people will react to the stuff that you're putting out.

[00:49:20] Bruce Anthony: Right. It's always that insecurity.

[00:49:22] J. Aundrea: they get where you're coming from and what you're trying to say and what you're trying to get across, like, will the other party [00:49:30] receive it the way you're intending to, and then also will it meet or exceed their expectations? will it fall short?

[00:49:37] Bruce Anthony: Yeah, that's, you know what I had to do.

[00:49:40] Comment Section Wars: Surviving the Internet’s Darkest Jungle 🌐⚔️

[00:49:40] Bruce Anthony: Because we're in this political season. So we've been talking a lot about election and Trump and in, in, in all of the shows on YouTube, I just turn off the comments.

[00:49:50] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:49:50] Bruce Anthony: people can't comment on those on those videos, because what I get is nothing but vile.

[00:49:57] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:49:58] Bruce Anthony: I was just like, yo, this isn't good for my [00:50:00] psyche.

[00:50:00] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:50:01] Bruce Anthony: have to sift through these comments. I was like, yeah, I'm just going to turn them and fuck off. Like, I don't care. Like you don't get to leave a comment on this episode,

I cast my vote. ballot for Kamala Harris it was just a picture of him with his I vote sticker and it went viral and he and I looked under the comments and it was [00:50:30] a lot of bots but it was also a lot of misguided people but it was a lot of like vitriol under there. And he's like, yeah, a lot of the comments were really supportive, you know, cause it's got like, I don't know, a few thousand comments.

[00:50:46] Bruce Anthony: Oh, wow.

[00:50:47] J. Aundrea: of them were really supportive, but was like, there was some ugly stuff under there. Yeah. I mean, the internet for all of the great AI tools that help you study. is [00:51:00] also place that allows people to be their worst selves,

[00:51:04] Bruce Anthony: Yeah.

Like things that people say on the internet, they wouldn't dare say to [00:51:30] people in front of the, like, the things that people say to, to me on the YouTube, I know if they were in my presence.

[00:51:38] Bruce Anthony: They would not say to my fucking face

[00:52:13] Bruce Anthony: Hey,

[00:52:17] J. Aundrea: Like, I really didn't, there was a guy and he was talking about, I don't know what, because he was very attractive, so I was not paying attention.

[00:56:54] J. Aundrea: not bad. No, because we'll still be like 20.

[00:56:58] Bruce Anthony: That's been right.

[00:56:59] J. Aundrea: It'd [00:57:00] be, it'd be 17. 95. We'd be like 20. I

[00:57:04] Bruce Anthony: Why?

[00:57:04] J. Aundrea: it that much. We, we don't like paying 20 for shit.

[00:57:10] Bruce Anthony: Why is it specifically 20 though?

[00:57:12] J. Aundrea: don't know. It's something about 20. We'll pay a hundred dollars for something.

[00:57:22] Bruce Anthony: will push back. I'll push back against that because this morning I was talking to our brother about that, that fucking [00:57:30] burger that I got and the half fries and half onion rings. And I was like, I got all that for 20? That wasn't that bad. I was like, wasn't that bad for 20?

[00:57:39] J. Aundrea: no, when I hear that you paid 20 for some food, that's, and it was just for one person. that's exorbitant. That's exorbitant. 20.

[00:57:53] Bruce Anthony: She said, 20 for a pair of drawers? What do they do? I, I swear to God, I was just walking past the [00:58:00] aisle and I just heard the conversation and I, I couldn't help but bust out laughing. Yes, what do they do?

[00:58:08] J. Aundrea: God.

[00:58:09] Bruce Anthony: What do they do? All right, that's enough of this show.

[00:58:13] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:58:13] Bruce Anthony: going to go drink and, uh, do some more work and then decide what I'm going to eat.

[00:58:18] Bruce Anthony: Uh, I'll go back to my diet or my nutrition tomorrow.

[00:58:23] J. Aundrea: Yeah, I need to do that, too, because I gained three pounds.

[00:58:26] Bruce Anthony: Uh,

[00:58:26] J. Aundrea: that I had sweat clothes on,

[00:58:28] Bruce Anthony: it could have been. Yeah, you never [00:58:30] what you're supposed to weigh. You're supposed to weigh yourself the same time that you would wait. So in the morning when you wake up is when you should weigh yourself. That's your true weight. Your weight can fluctuate 5 to 10 pounds in a given day based on what you eat.

[00:58:47] J. Aundrea: Yeah,

[00:58:47] Bruce Anthony: Cause it's water weight. It's not actual weight. So when you wake up in the morning, that's a true weight. Also, you don't have clothes on clothes, weigh things, weigh pounds. So don't have clothes on when you weigh [00:59:00] yourself.

[00:59:00] J. Aundrea: Well, it was just like this little, it was just like this sense of dread a little bit where I was like, oh lord, oh lord, I'm gonna gain it all back. And

[00:59:07] Bruce Anthony: No,

[00:59:08] J. Aundrea: it was like

[00:59:09] Bruce Anthony: there are for women. I'm about to teach some for women. There are multiple reasons why your weight will fluctuate. If it's that time of the month, you're retaining a lot of water. If you eat a lot of salty food, you're retaining a lot of water. Women naturally retain a lot of water. So like, that's the reason why I'm like.

[00:59:25] Bruce Anthony: It's something that I've had to beat into my female clients. [00:59:30] One, don't weigh yourself every day. That's number one.

[00:59:33] J. Aundrea: Yes.

[00:59:35] Bruce Anthony: weigh yourself at the same time, every time

[00:59:39] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:59:39] Bruce Anthony: the morning, when you wake up bucket naked, and then, pay attention to where you are. And your cycle and what you've been eating because those all determined because a lot of times people be like I gained three pounds yesterday.

[00:59:54] Bruce Anthony: No, motherfucker. You have a lot of water in your system right now

[00:59:59] J. Aundrea: You ate some [01:00:00] french fries yesterday.

[01:00:01] Bruce Anthony: and some underage and you bloated

[01:00:05] J. Aundrea: a half french fry, half onion ring.

[01:00:07] Bruce Anthony: it. It wasn't though. It was a full fucking it. The bag day was the bag was Six inches, seven inches long and about four to five inches wide.

[01:00:19] J. Aundrea: Yeah.

[01:00:19] Bruce Anthony: those were the hot and a half. I said, I think y'all gave me full French fries and full onion rings. I could have sworn I ordered the half and half, but maybe I ordered the full and full.

[01:00:29] J. Aundrea: [01:00:30] you might've, you might've, you might've gone up there and they were like, Oh, would you like to do half and half? No, give me two. Give me one of each.

[01:00:39] Bruce Anthony: I might've done that. You know why?

[01:00:40] J. Aundrea: of one of each.

[01:00:41] Bruce Anthony: Because I was really drunk, and I was romance mucking.

[01:00:45] J. Aundrea: And

[01:00:45] Bruce Anthony: Yeah,

[01:00:45] J. Aundrea: I'm hungry. Give me a full fries, full onion rings, put them in the same bag, shake them up. And that's a half a half.

[01:00:56] Bruce Anthony: that's a legend.

[01:00:57] J. Aundrea: a half a half. You asked for fries [01:01:00] and

[01:01:00] Bruce Anthony: No, I, no, specifically, I saw a half and half. They, they do offer a half and half. I'm surprised I ain't getting no hot dog yesterday.

[01:01:09] Bruce Anthony: Yeah, I'm looking at the menu right now.

[01:01:12] J. Aundrea: Why are you looking at the menu right now?

[01:01:14] Bruce Anthony: I don't know because I'm about to order some food because I'm not going to cook breakfast.
