1:03
She was arrested for contributing to the delinquency
1:06

1:13
Investigator say, at least two other people

1:20
the two. What she was
1:22
gonna get it one way? Your another was
1:25
a juvenile. That's hilarious,
1:28
Jackline, What does that I mean? You can't
1:31
help yourself when
1:33
juvenile. You
1:35
know, so, your honor, my
1:37
client is not guilty, and we all know when
1:40
back that ass up comes on, you're
1:43
such a freak, Jacqueline. That is
1:45
not true. That

is not true either is the argument
1:50
of you can't help yourself when back
1:52
that ass comes up, or it's just Florida
1:55
as a state. Florida.
2:19
My name is Roy, this

2:29
just know that it is presented fresh You're
2:32
hot for you on Wednesdays wherever you
2:34
download podcast. Um.
2:37
I'm not saying that other days of the week of whack,
2:39
but I am saying that Wednesday is the one that
2:41
is the best. Any other day is whack. Friday's
2:44
payday and all that money be gone as
2:46
soon as it hit your counts. Saturday's trash because
2:49
that's where you spend all the money. Sunday, Monday
2:52

2:54
That Monday is around the corner. But Wednesday,
2:57
she is the white blood cells that keeps the show pure.
3:00
J G. How are you doing
3:02

3:04
are you? Oh good?
3:06
Thank you to everybody whom shot
3:09
an email it two in regards to um
3:13
the brother Banks last
3:15
week, Ramsey
3:18
High School and the death of music and everything
3:21
that's going on with trying to get
3:23
the bands back to the school system.
3:25
But um, we have to say thank you to you
3:28
really quickly. I apologize for interrupting,
3:30
but you started that world
3:32
wind role of people donating,
3:35
and there's still time to donate because they
3:37
try to get to New York. We've got
3:39
to get these young children to New
3:41
York City so they can get their first rat bike.
3:44
And I think that's it's
3:48
rats about Carnegie Hall. So yeah,
3:54
yeah, we didn't say an uptown rat was in Manhattan
3:57
rat just a little like third.
4:01
How's the young fourth doing with the
4:03
football? He's he giving up on it yet or is he
4:05
loving it? Because this is about that point with sports
4:07
where your kid doing something for the first time, but they're
4:10
kind of go ahid daddy, this ship trash. You
4:12
know. The weird take on that man is
4:15
Ralph played spring football and now he's playing
4:17
fall football without
4:20
understanding that most people have a full
4:22
year in between seasons. So
4:25
so now when he's out there with the kids. He said
4:27
stuff like, yeah, you know back when I was playing in the
4:29
spring, you know it was way tougher
4:31
round. That was two months ago. Bro, Like, it's not, it
4:35
was not. It was not all time A man
4:38
um the shout out to my playing field times. We're
4:40
currently one in three. We're working
4:42
on it, brother, we're working on I don't think you should shout
4:44
out of teams. They they are kids
4:47
and this is encouragement. So you know what I'm saying,
4:49
y'all just get better. Please,
4:52
if you're listening to this and you play for Ralph's
4:54
team, turn it off and go to study
4:56
some football. Go watch some tapes. Please
4:59
watch something coming just for me.
5:01
Go watch something on open field
5:03
wrapping people up for coach. That's
5:05
all I'm asking. We asked that you
5:08
visit us on all the socials
5:10

5:12
dot com if you ever want to be a partner program
5:15

5:17
the email address. Uh j
5:20
G. What's your sidebar? Real quick? Oh?
5:22
My sidebar is a note from
5:24
your uncle. He didn't send an email, He just
5:26
called me directly. He wants you to know
5:29
he has an iPad and he's ready to
5:31
be on the show. After
5:33
three times being on this show, he found technology
5:38
to be on the show. Yes, he
5:41
has an iPad? Who
5:43
about Uncle Derek and iPad? That's telling
5:45
his face? I'll tell you out fair. Oh
5:49
to a woman, you
5:51
think Uncle Dave's discovered only fans. Don't
5:54
ever mentioned only fans to my uncle, because
5:56
my uncle is one of the mines that don't fall for it and be messaging
5:58
the women actually talking to
6:00
him and don't realize he's talking to some hired
6:03
intern. You got a choice. He can
6:05
either, you know, do the only fans
6:07
thing, or he can follow a ride on Twitter like
6:10
that's that's a that's a pretty fair playoff one
6:12
way or the other. Well, we're gonna
6:15
work on turning it on first. That's
6:17
what he don't don't
6:21
you know. I have to help him, Jaqueline.
6:24
I'm asking you respectfully as a friend,
6:26
please don't help my uncle into the
6:29
portal that is the web. Please,
6:32
no, no, no, that flip
6:34
phone was perfect, cause it ain't, but so much mischief
6:36
you can get in on a flip phone. But he
6:38
wants to learn. Speaking
6:41
of, it's about time to do another freaky episode.
6:44
Maybe we need to rack up some only fans people
6:46
and stuff like that real quick. Also, let
6:48
me make this solicit right now. Rod's
6:50
relationship fair for December. If you want to share some
6:52
workplace sex and but naked action that's been
6:55
going on, we would love to hear from you. Um,
6:58
We're gonna have a two tim or for that one on me. Uncle
7:00
Tappy from back
7:03
in the International Players episode, Tappy
7:05
Tappy, is that gonna come
7:07
back? He sent a message to the job their
7:09
d M s on the I G says Uncle
7:12
Tappy quote. Listening
7:14
to the Rods Relationship Office
7:16
Party episode, it
7:18
reminded me of the time I slept with someone for
7:20
months in the academic department who thought
7:23
I was single. I
7:25
love I love that Tappy didn't tell it.
7:29
How do how does she? Okay? Yeah, I'm
7:32
gonna Tappy to talk that one out. Yeah
7:36
yeah, I'll stop right
7:38
there. As
7:41
is customary once every four months, this
7:43
is the part of the show where
7:46
I have to ask you to rate and review us. And
7:48
I don't like doing this, and I know that
7:51
every podcast asked you to rate
7:53
and review and tell us did
7:55
you like it? And tell a friend. We never do that.
7:58
But here's how pot casts or
8:00
metrics and decided upon its
8:02
literally it's literally decided to pulling how
8:04
many people interact and engaged. And so
8:08
if you love us, this is our
8:10
Once every five months, ask to
8:13
whatever app you're on, please rate the podcast.
8:16
Write two sentences and say it's good
8:18
or they're not good, five stars
8:20
whatever. And I promised to not ask
8:23
you again until probably February.
8:27
Is that fair. I'll check in with them and see
8:29
if they're in the mood. So this is
8:31
me taking the temperature. We're gonna talk
8:33
with the homie Dalen Golf today,
8:35
uh, the new president of Jet magazine.
8:37
And apparently there's some scams going
8:40
on down there at these football stadiums
8:42
when they're selling the bear. We're gonna find out
8:44
what the fun going on down there as well. But first
8:47
it's time for the most Outstanding
8:49
Employee of the Week. Now, it's
8:52
hurricane season. Never
8:56
a good time when you see the hurricanes out
8:58
there and see those reporters.
9:01
Why why are we still putting reporters out? Thank
9:03
you hurricane? Please answer that makes
9:05
no sense. Saying
9:08
holding them down makes no sense. Okay,
9:11
See the
9:14
wind is blowing very
9:16
hard. I don't know if
9:19
you can tell by the ripples
9:21
in my face. Thank
9:24
you, thank you. Can you tell us a little bit
9:26
about what you're seeing on the ground, nothing,
9:28
motherfucker, I can't. There's
9:32
driving rain hitting me in
9:34
my face at about two hundred and fifty mile
9:36
an hour. All I see is
9:39
darkness, darkness.
9:42
So there was a hurricane a
9:45
little while back up there.
9:47
And where was
9:49
it the Gulf coast side of Florida, Hurricane
9:52
Ian Strap Brown,
9:54
you know, somewhere around um
9:57
Naples and Fort Myers, um.
10:02
And it's one thing about reporting that you have to
10:04
do. You have to improvise m
10:07
you know. And if you're out there in those elements
10:10
a lot of water. Electronics
10:12
can get wet m okay,
10:16
and they put the little they have a case, you
10:18
know for the cameras. Now all
10:21
weather okay, And it's not what what
10:23
what is the different waterproof versus water resistance?
10:26
That's the difference. There's waterproof versus water resistance.
10:29
That's the real trip. Yeah, like, get
10:31
a little water off it, but it's not water tight. Water
10:33
Proof is means it's water tight. If
10:36
I'm not mistaken, I'm not sure. It means it's water
10:38
tight. Water resistance means that you can put
10:40
it in water, and it can and it can hold for a certain
10:42
amount of time, but you can't like just hold
10:44
it down there forever. It's still gonna kirk
10:47
out promise that. Okay,
10:49
okay, got you so wonderful
10:52
reporter. It was out
10:54
there reporting in the rain and NBC
10:58
two reporter Kylie
11:00
Galor he's on camera
11:03
giving her live reporting the rain, and you know she
11:05
has to do that with a microphone and that rain is
11:07
coming down profusely. What is the most
11:09
efficient way, Jacqueline, if you
11:11
did not have the
11:14
proper microphone casing
11:16
to properly protect this microphone and waterproof
11:19
from the element, what would you
11:21
how would you? What would you mcgiver
11:23
a microphone cover out of Well,
11:26
I couldn't use you've
11:28
worked in journalism, j television.
11:31
I couldn't use a plastic bag because that's too
11:33
much creakily noise. A
11:36
box doesn't make any sense because it's
11:38
going to get wet and fall apart. Kyler
11:42
Gally used the condom with a reservoir.
11:45
Oh oh wow, she
11:47
rolled that condom down that long,
11:50
big black microphone. Yes you
11:52
did not say the long, big black microphone,
11:54
big black
11:57
microphone, that micro
12:00
that right
12:02
up to a mouth and kept reporting, Yo,
12:06
you know what. You know what, man,
12:09
o, some awesome real ship. That's actually
12:11
the smartest thing that you could possibly do in
12:13
that situation. Because the condom
12:15
won't stop the sound from coming through. Plus
12:18
hopefully it wasn't lubricated, she wouldn't
12:20
have any cook on her hands. But you know, at the
12:22
end of the day, it protects the microphone.
12:25
Where did she learn this? Where did
12:27
she learn to protect her microphone?
12:30
Like this way? That's really
12:32
smart. What was interesting
12:34
though, is that a lot of people were kind of
12:36
like teasing Earn on it and like teasing NBC,
12:38
but like there's no other real tech which you know,
12:40
some finding needing to fulfill it. Why isn't there a
12:42
waterproof microphone cover that has
12:45
been invented at this point? Because these microphones
12:47
cost hundreds of dollars and usually
12:50
most local news outfits there is no backup.
12:53
So you know what, man, it sounds
12:55
to me like you got a business venture here, Roy that you're missing
12:58
out on. Bro. You know what I'm saying? The would
13:00
microphone condom you make a killer? Jacquelin's
13:03
use microphone time, we
13:06
make a killing. It's the best thing to use
13:09
in that situation is actually a really true. Well,
13:11
it sound like we got out of the side hustle
13:13
real quick. We need them make that's
13:15
a little little condom, get
13:19
paid, bro. I'm trying to tell you here's
13:21
the bigger question. Third, she
13:24
was reporting from very dangerous
13:26
areas evacuation
13:28
areas during Hurricane Ian, which
13:30
means no stores was open. Is
13:33
that part of your standard reported
13:36
outfit does have a draghe
13:39
little makeup? Get your makeup bag.
13:41
It's the same ship to correspondents, care you have a second
13:43
suit in case of ship happened to the first suit? And
13:45
then also condo because somebody might woma
13:48
just happen to have a lubricated mint condom
13:50
with you. I understand, never
13:53
know when you have to have a three pack? Was
13:55
it a twelve? How did you pack this? Have
13:58
questions for UK I do it? I know we can't
14:01
get to him right now, we don't have enough time. But nonetheless,
14:04
for helping I
14:07
don't I don't know which brand now that would be is
14:12
a magnum that is not for
14:17
doing what ever needed
14:19
to be done during a live hit to
14:21
keep the technology rolling so that people
14:23
could get the information and get
14:26
themselves to safety, even if it
14:28
meant holding a big black microphone
14:31
dot condom rode all
14:33
the way down that chaft. Oh
14:35
my goodness, gracious congratulations
14:38
to you, Kyla Gaylor. Most
14:42

14:44

of Jet Magazine. Dalen
15:58
has worked in brand marketing for
16:00
over fifteen years.
16:02
Previously, as you said, he was
16:04
the marketing director for wing
16:07
Stop Restaurants, and he'll be talking
16:09
with you today, Roy about the opportunities
16:12
and challenges that come with running
16:15
a company with such a rich history
16:18
as Jet. Hello, Dalen, Dalen
16:21
Golf, welcome back to the job fair. I'm
16:23
gonna just say it right now. You officially a three time
16:26
Okay, I'm pretty sure you're
16:29
pretty I feel like this is the
16:32
third time. I know we
16:34

16:37
ain't. We ain't even check the do We got a
16:39
goddamn nagy page word dr every guest,
16:41
and we too lazy
16:43
to search for the ship. Dalen, What made
16:46
you take this on? And
16:48
you seem to be doing just fine at Wayne
16:50
stopped growing that brand
16:52
and making the pivot. What made
16:54
you take over Jet Magazine? Yeah?
16:57
Why you? Why you go from black Ass Food
17:00
the black ass magazine?
17:08
You were trying to get people to read
17:10
a magazine in the era where
17:13
a lot of the stuff that is in a magazine Jet
17:15
Jet Magazine for the young uns. That
17:17
was black Twitter in a pamphlet every
17:20
week, every single it was the excellence
17:23
about us. It was all of the TVs
17:25
and movies. There was a little bit of gossip,
17:27
you know, it'd he'd be uppity black gossip like
17:29
you know, did Bobby cheat on Whitness?
17:31
You know, ship like that, But that and
17:34
it was also it was also really black because it was
17:36
also a week late, normally a week
17:38
to two weeks later. It was very black.
17:40
That was was persistent, consistently
17:44
late because the January thirteenth issue,
17:46
like it's the thirtieth bro January,
17:58
Happy Black, valentized that and mag it's
18:00
March four, Thank
18:05
you
18:09
No. But to j G's question, though, what
18:11
what made you take on the challenge of trying
18:14
to rejuvenate and
18:16
because I can't say bring back the Jet
18:18
officially go out of print and go digital or did
18:20
it go out of print altogether, Well,
18:23
went out of print, went digital
18:25
and then went bankrupt. So absolutely
18:28
it's to bring it back situation. And
18:31
part of what you're talking about is
18:33
one of the reasons why I
18:35
felt the need to take on this particular challenge.
18:38
Now, if you really look at my career, I've
18:41
been multicultural marketing
18:43
most of my career. When I met you down
18:45
at Essence, I was handling multicultural
18:48
marketing for a brand like uh
18:50
Stay farm To, whereas they
18:52
were looking at how to be able to tap into
18:54
black audiences, how to be able to talk
18:56
to them in a very authentic way, and how to be
18:58
able to tap into the paces and spaces
19:01
where that audience live. You
19:03
haven't done that my entire life. Say
19:05
well, now you have ended the black Jake from
19:07
State farm. I didn't. I did not invent black
19:09
Jake, but I worked for the agency that
19:12
actually did that. But as I
19:14
always told people, I was my
19:17
My job for years was Anthony
19:20
Anderson's character on Blackish. That's
19:22
literally what I did. I explained
19:25
black culture to white owned
19:27
brands and white audiences and white
19:29
leadership and being able to say, no, this
19:31
is where you need to be, this is what's up and coming,
19:33
this is what's popping. Black culture is
19:36
pop culture before it's
19:38
pop culture, and usually by the time it becomes
19:41
pop culture, we over that ship. We're
19:43
doing on the suthing else. So, if you
19:45
are a brand that's able to tap into
19:47
black culture early and often
19:50
you get the credit and get the ride with it, which
19:52
is exactly what happened. From a Wingstop perspective,
19:54
we were Wingstop is not a black owned company.
19:57
Now Ross owns a considerable amount. We
19:59
have a lot of you know, well they
20:01
have a lot of um they
20:03
call them brand partners, but franchisees that are
20:05
black. But the reality of it is,
20:07
most of the people pulling the strings at the very
20:10
very top don't look like us. So
20:12
if you're a brand that is able to capture
20:14
it earlier and often, you're gonna be able
20:16
to ride that wave and you're gonna be that get
20:18
that credit before it goes to being
20:21
pop culture. You'll get the cool factor.
20:23
You'll get the kids on social media
20:25
like, oh nah, I funk with wing Stop,
20:27
or you know, I like Nike, or I like these
20:30
brands that you know, even like a Supreme,
20:33
you like, oh I like Supreme. Even reality
20:35
of it is, Supreme is very wide owned. But you're
20:37
tapping into black culture and you get
20:39
the credibility that comes from Wendy's
20:42
is absolutely good by the way they talk about it
20:44
on social and so there's
20:46
a connection honestly with Wendy's and Jet,
20:49
and I'll kind of go through that and kind of
20:51
tell you how I came to be
20:54
position. Hold up, yeah, Dylan, are you are you trying
20:56
to tell me that that I might be popping to surprise?
20:58
But the jaw of the jaw the jet
21:01
by the person who does Wendy
21:03
social media on Twitter because I always thought
21:06
that she was black, understanding, I just
21:08
thought it was a face. Because that that
21:10
that that Wendy's Twitter is off the chain
21:13
and I can see you doing that. Did you all? Did
21:15
you all going by that white girl until her she's Tina
21:17
Marie? Absolutely didn't. But
21:19
I do know who it is over there, and it's
21:22
not a girl, But yes, I do know
21:24
because my only person that want
21:26
to see and my only person want to see, like the full
21:28
body of Wendy from Wendy's did just see
21:30
what perfect?
21:34
This is what happens? Well, lord, I'm a perfect.
21:36
This is what happens when Roy goes
21:39
to the strip club and why
21:44
goes back to that. I want to
21:46
see the full body got this voice stolen
21:48
about Winch, she got cursed out there. Back
21:51
to answer your specific question, the reason
21:53
I took this role is I've been explaining
21:56
black culture the white people in the white brands for
21:58
a long time. Why not take all that
22:00
experience that I've been able to garner all over
22:02
these years. To be able to do that for
22:05
an iconic brand like this
22:07
was this was personal for me. This
22:10
was I'm developing this probe
22:12
called my Jet Story, my personal
22:14
Jet story, because everybody has a connection
22:16
to the brand, especially from a black experience. Mine
22:19
started at when I was eight years old, going
22:21
to park with barbershop in Kansas City, Kansas
22:24
on Sister Friday,
22:26
needing to get a haircut, or that Saturday
22:28
morning, needing to get a haircut. And there's this stack
22:31
of Jet magazines just sitting there
22:33
and you just looking through every one of them, and
22:35
you're seeing what's going on in Black America.
22:38
And this is from a kid from Kansas City, Kansas.
22:40
Like I'm from Kansas so
22:42
I can be able to see what's going on across
22:45
the nation, like what's popping in
22:47
d C, in Little Rock,
22:50
in you know, California,
22:52
in New York. Like that opened me up
22:54
to that entire world. So I had to go back
22:56
to albums on the back so you knew which
22:58
albums. Even check out sound
23:01
Scam movie box Office. The TV
23:03
ratings of black shows, it was
23:06
a black shot. They showed you which black people
23:08
was gonna be on the show that particular
23:10
week. So looking at that and understanding
23:13
that week actually the week before, it
23:17
might be a little like, but they're gonna come on again, They're gonna
23:19
come on Theyna, come home, They're gonna be bad.
23:21
We as a culture, we support
23:24
our own and that was one of the things
23:26
whereas from a historic standpoint,
23:28
we always kind of rallied
23:30
around, we circle the wagons, like now this
23:32
this is one of us. So we're gonna
23:35
give you all the benefits of the doubt because
23:37
from a white culture, they don't give you benefit
23:39
of the doubt. You are the doubt initially.
23:42
So that's where from a black owned
23:44
media standpoint, where there's that need
23:46
to be able to have this this
23:48
platform, to be able to tell to
23:51
tell the stories for us, by us and
23:53
all about us. Love it or hate it,
23:55
it's still us and we need to be able to own
23:58
and and honor those stories. So that's
24:00
one of the reasons why I was like man when I got
24:02
the call from the Bridgeman family, who I
24:04
talked about Wendy's. The Bridgeman family
24:06
owned evidence Jet. They bought it out of bankruptcy,
24:09
and they bought it because they owned
24:12
roughly four d these locations
24:14
at one point in time and then ended
24:16
up selling some of them and bought
24:18
the Co Cola bottling plant in Kansas
24:21
City and the one in the country of Canada. So
24:23
they have amassed a
24:25
substantial amount of black wealth. And
24:29
then they said, you know what, We're gonna own our
24:31
own things. And you know that's
24:33
kind of how you know, that opportunity
24:35
presented itself. So when they called and was like, Dylan,
24:38
what would you do if we gave you the keys to Jet?
24:41
I was like, wait a minute, Like this
24:44
man, okay, this you know. I
24:46
had to take a step back and set my cup
24:48
down. Um. But in
24:50
doing that, it's like, no, I gotta do this for
24:52
myself to be able to challenge myself,
24:54
but also doing it. I hate to overuse
24:57
it, but damn it, it's the truth. I was doing this ship
24:59
for the cold and I know that I
25:01
can be able to take the skills that I have in
25:03
order to bring it back to its prominence.
25:05
Because honestly, Jet as
25:07
a brand It's iconic
25:10
no matter what. When I rock a shirt like this and
25:12
I'm walking through the airport, it's
25:14
still okay. I like
25:16
it. I like it, I like it. I actually love
25:18
it. Jet Magazine is a vintage
25:21
brand. It's an iconic brand
25:24
absolutely. So I'm looking at those
25:26
little nuances and like, Okay, how
25:29
can I be able to flip it, extract the
25:31
value do some cool things. Damn if I made
25:33
Wingstop cool, I think I can't make
25:35
Jet back cool, Like
25:38
let's just be for real here. So that's kind of where
25:40
I looked at it as the opportunity
25:42
to be able to do that. You're the one that told Rick Ross
25:44
the show is ted is and get the numbers up at Winston.
25:49
Nobody controls Ross, nobody
25:51
controls Bross. But if you notice,
25:54
if you watch that Versus battles
25:57
that was on where he took his shirt off and
25:59
you saw all the Wingstop branding that
26:02
wasn't supposed to happen, that was me. I literally
26:04
say food truck to the
26:07
studio and I made them feed
26:09
everybody in the entire studio. I paid
26:11
zero dollars and zero sense to be on that Versus
26:14
Battle, but I literally fed
26:16
everybody in the whole station. So when
26:18
my team went up there and put those bags
26:20
there and everything else, it was like, you
26:22
good because we fall over here, we're straight.
26:25
And then Ross took his shirt off, and
26:27
then you know, the rest is history. After
26:29
the break, we're gonna get into it with a little
26:31
bit more of Dalen Golf. We need to talk about
26:33
the world of being a black ad exact at
26:35
white companies and what that world was like and
26:38
there was any little scamming and shadiness
26:40
going on in that world. But first we
26:42
gotta let the home in the right Owa k right for short,
26:45
take this show off the rails, like you always do with
26:47
a little segment we called breaking the iis the
26:49
job there. We shall return job
26:59
there. We got the homie
27:01
Dayling Golf from Jet Magazine still
27:03
standing Viber get into a little bit with him
27:05
just about the scams of being an
27:07
ad executive. Was
27:10
that like being a black man in a white space trying
27:12
to tell white people how to sell stuff to black people.
27:15
You know, mistakes have been
27:17
made, sounds frustrating. Sure,
27:20
it's an interesting world. But before we do that, it's
27:23
trying to do We always do this part of the show
27:26
if you're new to the program, this is where we
27:28
slow it down for a minute and give you some topics
27:30
to help you break the ice with co workers. You can't
27:32
stand co workers at the
27:34
opposite race. That one co worker,
27:36
you know, the one and
27:40
one motherfucker who bart the
27:42
staple of three years ago and you're still still
27:46
you know one co worker
27:49
man at one
27:51
co I remember working the dish room, you
27:54
know, at that Health South Rehab Hospital
27:56
in Birmingham on Lake Shore, and every now and then
27:58
I got paired in a dish him as a
28:00
sixteen year old four
28:03
year old man. And
28:06
I don't know if you ever seen a sixteen year old and at
28:08
four year old man working together. But
28:11
she ain't got a lot of ship to talk about. That's
28:15
why we do this segment so you can have at least
28:17
one little thing to take to your job to
28:19
get these born motherfucker's up off you to
28:23
help us do that. As a man who was undefeated

29:22
A beacon of light has shown
29:24
through in the email Doku
29:28
Nia Long Boston Celtics cheating
29:30
scandal email
29:35
man Celtics suspended for
29:37
a year for inappropriate,
29:40
consensual but not illegal per
29:43
Jacklin relationship. So what's
29:45
the ray of hope? What's the good news over there? In
29:47
Boston? Marlon Waynes was recently
29:50
interviewed and asked
29:55
about things going on. He had
29:57
a bit of advice for his old free and
29:59
Nia Long shout out
30:01
to Marlon Wayne's solid blue, soliditude
30:03
fairy Fairy and and his advice
30:07
was that he he would
30:09
ask her if she was happy before
30:11
this scandal broke, and if so, she
30:14
shouldn't throw away the man of
30:16
her dreams because he got some pussy want
30:18
them.
30:22
And he stood. He said this is
30:24
He said that this is advice he would give to
30:26
his daughter, He would give this
30:28
advice to his sisters, any
30:30
woman. He knows if that man
30:33
was everything that
30:35
you ever hoped for in relationship and you
30:38
were happy, don't throw that
30:40
away
30:41
for being publicly
30:44
embarrassed. And he
30:47
talked about how you know your
30:49
marriage and things like that. It's a true partnership
30:52
and people aren't perfect. And if you're gonna,
30:54
if you find that thing that makes
30:56
you want to live for another day
30:58
and within a person, you gotta
31:01
deal with everything else that comes along with it.
31:04
I understand. First
31:08
off, there's a gooding to bring up at the job you
31:11
bringers over with your white co works, to do
31:13
you forgive because see there's cheating and
31:15
then there's motherfucker you embarrassed us.
31:19
You know what I'm saying. Like, so
31:22
there's a difference in
31:24
the layers of that. But you know, let's
31:26
let's toss it over to j G. You are women's
31:36
because what say you to forgiven
31:39
a man? Is there a difference in cheating
31:41
versus motherfucker you embarrassed
31:44
us or as cheating cheat. In
31:46
the sense of forgiveness, I
31:48
thank you forgive regardless. However,
31:52
that doesn't mean you have to stay with someone.
31:54
We don't know the details there. They
31:56
have a kid together, so they're always
31:59
going to be in each others lives and they're
32:01
probably going to sleep together again just
32:03
because they're familiar with each other. It has
32:06
you get you wanted two more outer system.
32:08
You get one of them catch
32:10
each other slipping fox like the way out
32:12
the door. But however,
32:15
I don't see a way that because
32:20
the problem is that if she takes him back, then
32:22
she still faces the public judgment from other
32:24
black women who are gonna go, why are you settling?
32:26
And then because we all live in this era where
32:29
your relationship, your behavior within your relationship
32:32
is judge if your relationship is on Front Street,
32:34
and their relationship, as far as I could tell,
32:36
they were like out there like Steph
32:39
Curry or Lebron and Savannah
32:41
and like always making public appearances. Nobody
32:44
knew they were together until he got this because
32:46
she was courtside at the NBA fund alone.
32:49
She suck the coach. She
32:51
has a baby with the coach had been to get to you alone
32:54
that the coat. Yeah, and they like
32:57
fifteen sixteen years. Actually, I
33:00
don't I
33:02
understand what brother Marlon Lands are saying. I
33:04
do think the forgiveness is important.
33:09
Like when we talked and we talked about this the week before,
33:11
you know, when we talk about love triangle. So if we're
33:13
talking about cheating, getting
33:16
cheated on, or being the side, dude,
33:18
I've lived at all three corners of
33:21
that of that ordeal
33:24
in my life. J
33:26
G. I have lived a life. My twenties were
33:29
fucking wild. Oh
33:33
my gosh. I was on probation,
33:35
so I couldn't do a lot of drinking and drugg What
33:38
do you think? What do you think the mischief went
33:42
straight to the woman
33:46
was with another man? Comes
33:50
grandma. I've done that before us. Shock
33:54
the grandma. Wait a minute, you're
33:57
telling me, Wait
33:59
just one second there. Now, I've never
34:01
heard I've all heard this in stories. You're
34:04
telling me you actually
34:07
slept with the woman who
34:10
had a man. People actually do
34:12
that. I saw him
34:14
that morning. I was at the house that night. You
34:18
saw him that morning? Yeah, I
34:20
work together. Remember
34:22
I told you. I told her. No,
34:26
I've put it in the Girl Western
34:28
Hills Mall, Tell
34:32
It, Tell It. At
34:36
the time, I was doing morning radio. This is like
34:38
O two oh three, and
34:40
my prank calls is jumping and
34:42
we did a live hit from this shoe
34:44
store at the black was at the Black Mall. This is
34:46
an important detail. It was at the black
34:48
mall in Birmingham called Western Hills Mall. And
34:51
the dude that worked at the shoe store came.
34:54
You know now that I said the mall, it don't
34:56
matter because all
34:58
right this and he
35:04
came over and he goes, a man, I'm
35:07
down bad with my girl. Can you call my girl
35:09
and print caller for me and chill up? I
35:11
go like and he like, he comes over
35:14
a man and he's like for real sad, and this mother's
35:17
like he tatted up like tear drops
35:20
like a for real about that life
35:22
ass dude like sevenfold
35:25
Gangster Disciples man
35:28
called my girl and chilled
35:31
my girl for me. All
35:34
right, cool, I pull out my phone
35:36
and put the number and I call this girl or I print
35:38
caller. It's funny. He's happy. He gets
35:40
on the phone. I little you or whatever we can
35:42
do to baby a little at you And
35:44
she said, yeah, let's work it out. So that
35:47
was that ten
35:50
o'clock that night, I get a text
35:59
about ten any boy I was over Because
36:09
I was. I was still in my mama's apartment
36:11
and Avenue any time I had a chance to
36:13
have a road game and sleep on a full bed
36:16
because I was still sleeping on the twin bed and them
36:19
days, I was like, against
36:21
jack Wine, I have lived. Wow,
36:25
shouldn't have done it. Though she gave me cramps
36:32
about that.
36:36
She was a grown woman fucking the nigger who worked
36:38
at the foot like I believe she had craps. Agreed.
36:47
Men might lie by live thing, but no man alive
36:50
lies about getting grabs. So about
36:53
I will say, I will say,
36:55
yeah, forgive. I was just gonna say, always
36:58
forgive, no matter what the city wishing
37:00
is. That doesn't mean you have to have that person back in your
37:02
life. But if you do decide to take that
37:04
person back in your life, don't
37:06
bring that stuff up anymore because it will
37:09
kill your relationship.
37:11
Let's flip it up on
37:13
the on the other side of the scales, no pun
37:16
intended. We've got
37:18
a very vicious
37:20
scoundrel brewing in the world
37:22
of white sports. And
37:24
that is two fishermen were
37:26
recently called cheating during
37:29
the fishing tournament and are staring
37:31
down the battle of a suspension and
37:34
felony themth charges because
37:41
because they weigh the fish, the way
37:43
you win is breaking the heaviest catch. And
37:46
so they got caught stuffing
37:49
their fish with basically
37:52
a little ball bearings like that's what the BB
37:54
and stuff
37:57
leadball version and fish
38:01
filets from other fish they
38:03
sell fish for. They
38:11
put fish in the fish off. You opened
38:13
up my posies look like fishing out of me. It's
38:15
good. The
38:21
only thing I compared it to is like
38:24
as a black child growing up, when
38:26
somebody claimed that their jacket was real
38:29
and then they go take it off and then they expose
38:31
it that you wear a bootleg version kind
38:34
of clothes. Everybody made
38:37
a circle around there like oh, and
38:39
they're pulling the lead balls out of that,
38:42
Like what's the penalty for that
38:44
other than what you get kicked out the lead Like that's
38:46
I guess that's qualified
38:49
and that they're used to. They're they're a great
38:51
fishing duo too. So now all
38:53
of the previous winds are
38:55
being called in the question, But like I said, they're facing
38:58
steff and the thepth charges for essentially
39:00
stilling the prize for the fish.
39:04
There's a couple of thousand dollars. Man, they
39:07
were they were looking at it fishing.
39:09
It's like, it's like golfing when
39:12
you win some money, even if you lose,
39:14
and they are like, you don't even have to come in first
39:16
place to get like to hit a lick. Yeah,
39:18
like you come in last, lazy and get like five, because
39:21
that's how golf works. Like the top golfers
39:23
are winning millions of dollars a year
39:25
and hundreds of thousand dollars in one tournament,
39:28
but you come in thirty fifth and still get twenty
39:30
seven thousand. Well,
39:33
his mama named in Mrotto. We call him
39:35
Rod for short the podcast his
39:37
uncle Rod's Story corner and hit
39:40
him up on the internet at Rod for Shortness
39:43
right there in the episode description Rod, as
39:45
always, we thank you. You welcome to hang around
39:47
a little bit longer. We gotta run it back with DAYLN
39:50
Golf real quick. Yeah, absolutely, I
39:52
got some questions. Thank
39:55
you as always for that Rod scam of a week time.
39:57
We welcome back to the program. President
39:59
of magazine formally of
40:02
Wingstop International,
40:05
Brother DALN Golf quick quick
40:07
question before before we get into
40:09
what you're doing with Jet for the future,
40:11
quick question about your old job introducing black
40:14
people to white brands and
40:16
in being the Nick groy at liaison for people
40:19
like that,
40:28
did you ever run into somebody
40:31
like from a brand who was so out
40:33
of touch with black people
40:35
that they were very casually racist, Like,
40:38
did anybody ever set you down in the meeting to go listen,
40:41
man, the darkies aren't buying our toilet paper?
40:43
How do we fix that?
40:48
These questions weren't in the prep doctor, I
40:52
will say this, No, that
40:54
didn't never happen. But
40:56
but the nuance part I did have
40:59
a rand that
41:02
uh put together a program
41:05
and the title of the program was called
41:07
run Gigga run like gigabytes
41:09
like cell phone down.
41:15
Run All press is good
41:17
pressure right, And I in turn
41:20
founded and came to
41:22
me and was like, uh,
41:25
this was the final deck presentation
41:27
and honestly it was a very very
41:30
I can't I'm not gonna say the name, and
41:33
luckily they changed the name
41:35
of some stuff that they were doing. Um
41:37
that you can't do it. But it was a major,
41:39
major, major company
41:42
top five. Did this come from
41:44
an intern? Yes? Was that an
41:46
early draft.
41:49
It was a final deck. They were going to present
41:51
this too presentation.
42:00
I still have the presentation,
42:03
forward it to myself in my
42:05
personal no
42:07
presentation, and the big idea.
42:10
It was three ideas. This
42:12
was the big idea that they was gonna put
42:14
all the money into. And it was called
42:16
Run, Gigga Run. Can you
42:18
forward? That's a rous job fair at gmail
42:21
dot com? Yeah? Can
42:23
we can we present this day that
42:26
I will not do that. I
42:29
want to win a little microphones and
42:31
and and do the whole thing. You
42:33
have some please digg
42:36
it, please, I get a hundred
42:38
subscriptions to the new jet of you forward
42:40
that to us. We're with that being
42:43
said, being the being the world
42:45
whisper. I had to be able to say,
42:47
oh no, no, no, no, no, this can't go. And
42:49
I had to say it to him to the VP who
42:52
still didn't get it. He's like, no, it's like run
42:54
for us run. I was like no, no, no, no,
42:56
no no no. There
42:58
are people like that, move it right, which
43:05
I do love that movie. That's a good movie. But he's
43:07
like no, it's like but
43:09
literally that was the final
43:11
presentation and the name of the program
43:14
that they were going to do and they were proud of it, and
43:16
I had to be like, nad
43:18
this this right here, you need to burn this.
43:21
This absolutely did not happen.
43:24
But it absolutely did happen. So
43:26
yes, before we end on the ways that people
43:28
can support JET and everything that you're doing,
43:30
now, I have a more serious question just about
43:33
the relationship and the responsibility
43:35
of black media companies to black journalists
43:38
and black freelancers. So as
43:40
the president of JET, and I
43:42
don't think JET was caught up in this bullshit
43:45
from a couple of years ago. That's still
43:47
kind of going on for some freelancers,
43:50
but there were, or there
43:52
are a lot of black freelance
43:54
journalists and writers across the whole
43:56
gamut of journalism who were never
43:59
paid, or they got short change,
44:01
or it took sixty days to get your money
44:03
for an article you wrote forty days
44:06
ago. How does JET,
44:08
how do you plan as a company. And
44:10
I don't know if this is your area of expertise
44:12
or if you hire somebody for it, but how do
44:15
you plan to rebuild the trust? Because
44:17
for all the legacy that JET is, at the end
44:20
of the day, you got to be providing good information
44:22
and point in journalism to the people the market
44:24
is much more competitive now for eyeballs
44:27
on black stuff. So how
44:30
do you all what is your approach or have you all
44:32
even gotten to that point yet as an organization
44:34
on how you get good black journalists
44:36
to come back in the fold and trust
44:39
that they'll get their money and they'll
44:41
get it on time. Well, first
44:43
and foremost we're not at that
44:45
level just yet. The way I'm positioning
44:48
JET from an initial standpoint,
44:50
I mean you brought it up previously, or
44:53
at least a point to it. Jet was
44:55
social media. Jet was black Twitter
44:57
before social media was ever invented. And
45:00
my goal and if you think about black Twitter,
45:02
if you ain't check your Twitter in two weeks, in
45:05
two weeks, what
45:07
was happening two weeks ago? But think about
45:09
a Jet magazine, if you go back to it,
45:12
it was really democratized journalism.
45:14
Meaning the Jet beauty of the
45:16
week was a girl from Virginia.
45:18
Is third kind of reas out or just you
45:21
know somebody a college student. That part of it
45:23
you had if you've got married,
45:25
cougars in there too. Cougar, I
45:28
mean it happened, but if you got married, you
45:30
submitted your photos and they show
45:32
your photos of when you got married. It
45:35
talked about in there people who got a promotion.
45:37
If you were an executive at GM and
45:40
Black and you got promoted to senior vice
45:42
president, that got written in it. So all
45:44
these things was
45:46
in a Jet magazine. When people die,
45:49
you had that in there. The Vampire and Brooklyn
45:52
cover, I still got that one that you still
45:54
got so and you look at it
45:56
was really community focused, democratized
45:58
journalism. You got content from
46:01
everywhere, which is honestly what social
46:03
media is. So the way I'm positioning
46:05
Jet is kind of pulling some of those
46:07
things back in at least from an initial standpoint,
46:10
to be able to regain that trust, to
46:12
be able to be that I've been calling
46:15
and playing with this this term called fueled
46:17
by Jet. We don't want to be the beginning.
46:19
We don't want to be the end. We just want to be the fuel. We
46:21
want to get you from point A to point B. We want
46:23
to give you the amplification, we want
46:25
to give you the opportunity, we want to give you
46:27
that stamp of approval. Because reality
46:30
is, if you are on the cover a Jet
46:32
or you were in Jet, you were somebody.
46:35
I had a conversation with Yasin
46:37
Bay most deaf. He talked about
46:39
how his grandparents were
46:41
still even when he was a rapper, had album
46:43
and stuff, his grandparents were still like, yo, you
46:46
might need to go get you a job at UPS. So
46:48
you need a job at the post office. They're paying good, they
46:50
got good benefits. But when he
46:53
was on a Jet cover, his grandparents
46:55
was like, you're good. You
46:57
made it. Your officials that overpro
47:00
you made it on Jet. Oh, you're good.
47:03
Like I ain't gonna ask you and bother you no more
47:05
because my boy was on the cover of Jet. So
47:08
that part of it of using that brand equity
47:10
and that stamp of approval, it's kind of what
47:12
we're looking at doing, at least from an initial
47:14
standpoint. So as we talked about
47:17
what we're trying to do, at least from an initial standpoint,
47:19
I encourage everyone to go to jetmag
47:22
dot com, follow us on social or go to jetmag
47:24
dot com because I'm gonna give everybody
47:26
an opportunity to get that stamp of approval.
47:29
Because you can be able to go to the website, upload
47:31
your image and now you can be
47:33
on the cover of Jet and now you
47:36
can share. You can tell us your Jet story.
47:38
So you know, my Jet story was Kenns
47:40
City, Kansas Parkwood Roy, your
47:42
Jet story is your father's eulogy
47:45
was in Jet. But you can be on the cover.
47:47
You can be able to kind of share that because we want to hear
47:49
that part of it. So it'll be and
47:52
you know, we'll re share it using
47:54
the hashtag my Jet story. So that's kind of
47:56
what we're doing from an initial standpoint, Dalen,
47:58
we talked about Jet celebrating
48:01
the entertainment side of things, but
48:03
how will Jet honor the
48:05
legacy, the past, the older
48:07
version of the magazine and
48:10
also still address social
48:12
issues in the black community. I
48:14
use this analogy. Jet was to Emit
48:17
Till what Twitter was to George
48:19
Floyd. It literally
48:21
started the civil rights movement.
48:25
I think MLK was like twenty six. He
48:27
saw that Jet magazine. He's like, you know
48:29
what, I need to be able to do something. Mega Evers
48:32
saw that Jet magazine. The world saw that
48:34
magazine. So when the world saw it,
48:37
they felt they had to do something about it.
48:39
And that was that spark. In the same exact
48:41
way that when people saw George
48:43
Floyd on that ground, it was
48:46
like, we gotta do something about this. We
48:48
need to start this movement. So we understand
48:50
our positioning and our value,
48:52
especially from a black community standpoint, and
48:54
we're just figuring out the ways to be able to unlock
48:56
that. And then eventually, as we're
48:59
kind of building that credit ability back, as
49:01
we look at being able to tap into journalists
49:03
and get content out and being able to do that part
49:06
of it, we'll figure out the ways to make it makes
49:08
sense. Well, we're proud of the work that you're doing over
49:10
there, Jet Magazine. Let us know, um
49:12
when we can start nominating Beauties of the Week.
49:15
Whenever y'all get that back up and tack the I
49:18
will not I'll say
49:20
this last point about Beauty of the Week.
49:22
Jet. Beauty of the Week is like
49:25
the Ignition remixed by R. Kelly, phenomenal
49:29
when it was out. But you play that right
49:32
now in this particular climate and
49:34
you might get some I
49:37
don't know, I don't know what
49:39
that is. So we're figuring out ways
49:42
to be able to bring it back to be able
49:44
to be palatable for our audience,
49:47
but also do it in a way that's respectful
49:49
the Jet all the fans account
49:52
of the week, only
49:54
fans account of the wing. Oh no, that's
49:58
a that's acceptable. That's
50:00
not gonna happen. I will say we
50:02
are working on a documentary
50:05
with Lamont mc lemore talking about
50:08
the impact of it from a historic standpoint,
50:10
but we're figuring out ways to be able to bring
50:12
it back to life but also do it in a way that's
50:14
respectful. And let's understand that the beauty
50:17
standards, everything is out there.
50:19
We have to be able to do it. This is why
50:22
they pay me as always.
50:24
Brother, we love you. We gotta get you back on because we need
50:26
to find out what happened in wing Stole because yeah's
50:28
probably got fired. I did not get fired,
50:31
but my last day was was epic.
50:36
You're coming back that you're coming back for last You
50:38
got to do it last day. Okay,
50:40
and let us get a copy of that email. I'll
50:45
write for a year for JAT for free if you
50:47
send me that email. I'm
50:49
not sending you know we're still
50:53
is real quick No no, no, no, no, don't tell
50:55
us, don't tell us. Look, man, don't lose your job. You to
50:58
sign NDA's brother Dalen gulf Prey it
51:00
in the Jet magazine. We appreciate everything
51:02
you're doing the move culture forward. Thank
51:04
you for coming on the job. Don't say nothing else,
51:06
just shut after
51:09
the break more of the job fit would
51:11
be right back trying to save your job. Job
51:21
fair, we are bringing at home. Third,
51:24
did you ever sell sodas and stadiums
51:26
where you're a stadium vendor? Get your hot dogs
51:29
here, get your fresh go peanuts?
51:32
Yeah right, peanuts. Now,
51:36
those kind of jobs need a certain level of
51:38
coordination that I just did not have at
51:41
that age. I would have been on Sports
51:43
Center every week for falling down
51:45
flights of sets with soda and beer tumbling
51:47
over my head, like no question about
51:49
it. I did it for two football
51:51
seasons Alabama ninety two,
51:53
the championship years, shout out Jeans, Stalin's,
51:56
Jay Barker and all the Gang and
51:59
nine three as well. I
52:02
did it for I was a vendor
52:05
in those days. Alabama
52:07
would play when they were renovating Bryant Denny
52:09
Stadium in the early nineties to increase seat capacity,
52:12
Alabama would play their major opponents
52:14
in Birmingham because that stadium had
52:16
more seats, So they
52:19
would split their home schedule. So you know, you catch
52:21
three four games and I saw good fucking
52:23
football. Peak. Steve Spurrier,
52:26
Pete Peyton, manning front
52:28
row seat to that ship. That
52:31
job, I don't see that. I didn't
52:33
need it. That's why I only did it for two seasons. I'll
52:36
keep this hot ship two
52:40
seasons applied, you work in the entire season.
52:43
I'm with j G. I just couldn't see you
52:46
doing that, like going up and down the stairs. I
52:49
sold Pepsi's and I
52:51
had the little badge for one fifty. And
52:54
the way the way the scam worked at Legion
52:56
Field was some of the vendors
52:59
would have buttons that
53:01
say to fifty. They would make these buttons like
53:03
Kinko's and FedEx or whatever Michael's,
53:06
and then they will put them on once they
53:08
got Like in the tunnels, you have ushers
53:10
watching you, so they're checking
53:12
each each vendor to make sure you're
53:15
wearing the right price button on your
53:17
apron. Once you get up in the
53:19
stands, once you're going up in the bleachers, there's
53:21
no more super no one's watching
53:24
you. So you run a switch real
53:26
fast and then you go up and you've
53:28
got a tray of twenty soldas that you're selling
53:30
for a dollar extra. That's twenty extra dollars
53:33
on top of your tips. So
53:35
if you hustle. You can sell six seven
53:37
trays of sodas just
53:39
on the overages, you're damn near
53:42
at a hundred and fifty hundred sixty dollars
53:44
and they ain't even counting tipshet, So it's
53:46
a good lick if you But if you get caught, you get
53:48
banned from the stadium and all of
53:50
that ship. So with that aside, j G. Who
53:53
do we have on the phone? Okay,
53:56
we welcome John to the show. John
53:59
resides in New Hampshire with his
54:01
wife, four kids, and a
54:04
Birmingham born puppy.
54:07
John works as a special education
54:09
teacher and serves as a
54:11
returned Peace Corps
54:14
volunteer. Today he's gonna talk with
54:16
you Roy and tell your story about
54:19
a beer scam he ran back
54:21
in college. Welcome John, Hi,
54:24
how's it good with everybody? So? John,
54:26
first and foremost, congratulations
54:29
on everything that you have done
54:32
as a specialist teacher. We thank you, and I
54:34
mean sincerely, thank you so much
54:36
for being an educator. I
54:38
know that that is money
54:41
would be better. We ain't got no money. Who was still working
54:44
on sponsors? Count
54:47
the number of commercials between breaks? You know,
54:50
we ain't making no money as a still gron Um.
54:53
Tell us a little bit about the beer scams.
54:55
Now, I was a teenager when I worked the
54:57
stadium, so I wasn't allowed to sell alcohol.
55:00
Those were the big money. Those would have been whales.
55:02
There was was
55:04
beer, and anybody selling
55:06
food you were going to make a misty more money than
55:09
I was. Basically selling chasers for people who
55:11
were sneaking. Jim being stadium.
55:15
Wow, So where
55:17
where were you was this? Was this up in the Northeast
55:20
where you were selling beers? Yes, A certain
55:23
football team that will remain nameless. Uh,
55:26
about twenty years ago opened a new
55:28
stadium UM and
55:31
went on to win a lot Northeast. You
55:33
know, we went a lot of championships
55:36
in that time area. Any
55:39
names, but because I got you know, the
55:41
Northeastern minute men that did
55:44
a Northeastern minute min so
55:47
the first year. So they opened a brand
55:49
new stadium and the
55:51
first the first year that they had
55:53
their beer system, their their
55:56
whole vending system. UM. The
55:58
room where all the supplies would go in and out
56:00
of was run by like these
56:03
fraternities and sororities.
56:06
I guess the team would pay the sorority or
56:08
the or the fraternity, the like whatever.
56:11
The house. But these
56:13
kids wouldn't get to raise money
56:15
for their and so they
56:18
are which is what we were doing. It was our
56:20
baseball team that was selling the soda I
56:22
give you. So they're
56:24
sitting there keeping track of stuff, and these
56:27
they could not care less what's going on. They're
56:29
just like looking around, flirting with each other and
56:32
hungover and stuff like that. So
56:36
what I would do is you
56:39
take two cases
56:41
of beer out into this crowd and before
56:43
the game, you're selling two cases of beer,
56:45
take five minutes to sell, you just like opening
56:48
tops and just you can't even get
56:50
to the stands. People are just like on
56:52
it. And then so you go back in and
56:56
uh you go to check in with
56:58
the fraternity and sorority
57:00
people and uh you
57:03
have to pay for the stuff
57:05
you just sold. And they're like, oh yeah,
57:07
they said whatever the amount for one case of beer
57:09
is. They're like, oh yeah, give
57:12
me that. So I was like, okay.
57:15
It was like how many beers hang
57:18
on a second? So I can follow the math, so I can understand
57:21
this. How many beers in a wreck
57:23
were you're taking out? It's a case of
57:25
beer. It was just like a case of so twenty
57:27
four, So okay,
57:30
so twenty four and you're selling them for how
57:32
much At the time, it was like six
57:35
bucks a beer. Okay, So
57:38
then you're coming back and essentially paying
57:40
it's probably costing you what four bucks of beer
57:43
and you're making two bucks profit or something
57:45
like that. No, no, you gotta pay for the whole the
57:47
whole beer, and then you get a commission check later.
57:50
Um got got
57:53
you? Okay, okay, So it's like a hundred and fifty
57:55
bucks hundred forty bucks or something, so I
57:58
would sell to and pay for
58:00
one. Okay, hang on, let me follow this. So
58:03
you show up to the frat boy and go, hey,
58:05
frat boy, here's a hundred and fifty dollars.
58:07
I'd like twenty four beers please. No, no,
58:10
that's no. You
58:12
take you take the bear out, and then you pay for it when
58:14
you get that, correct with the money you just
58:16
made for everybody if you get if you walk
58:18
out with two cases of there they have no idea. Oh
58:23
so they're not keeping till they should be keeping. Yeah,
58:26
so you're going out, so they
58:29
should be keeping track. Like okay, so you're basically
58:31
going out double fists out with two cases. Okay,
58:33
So well to collect to because they're not paying
58:35
attention. You grab two cases
58:38
and get out the door with two cases, so
58:40
you're pocket so you're making one forty raw
58:43
profit every trip out. I
58:46
would walk out with like, I'm
58:51
okay with this, And you know why, I'm okay with why
58:55
because these stadiums fucking overcharge
58:57
you for concessions, and god damn
59:00
it. If anybody can get over God
59:02
bless him because the fans mentioned
59:08
fact. I don't even like that team, so I love
59:11
the fact that that's
59:13
the way I look at it. I support that in all
59:16
the ways possible. I like this. You're
59:20
talking seven. Hang on, let me get to calculated
59:22
out again real quick. What that calculated? Okay,
59:24
we're talking seven. We're talking seven
59:27
hundred a game times eight
59:29
home games. You
59:31
know what, Let's add in a couple
59:33
of them preseason games. So that's to
59:37
home games during the preseason.
59:39
So that's a total of ten games in that stadium.
59:41

59:49
