Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, the weekly show. It's going to be coming out every Thursday. So exciting. You'll be saying to yourself, TGID. Thank God it's Thursday. We're going to be talking about all the things that hopefully obsess you in the same way that they obsess me. The election. Economics. Earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. And I know that I listed that fourth, but in importance it's probably second. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday?
Starting point is 00:00:50 I mean, talk about innovative. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. You're listening to the Daily Show. Let's go! Yeah! Welcome to the Daily Show, I'm Leslie Jones! Last time I hosted the show, I solved all of America's problems. But then y'all f-e'all everything up again. Acting like you got a substitute teacher showing your ass.
Starting point is 00:02:08 Well, guess what? Ms. Jones is back in class, bitches. So let's get these headlines. Let's get these headlines. Ha ha ha! Let's get started with something exciting. The Republican presidential primary. Yeah, can't you feel the energy? Look at those fucking winners.
Starting point is 00:02:38 But I hope you're not getting attached to them because they ain't gonna be here long. Breaking overnight, a shocking announcement from South Carolina Senator Tim Scott. He is dropping out of the race for the Republican presidential nomination after failing to gain traction in the polls. But as Scott himself explained, he simply did not think he had enough support from voters to keep tredging toward the nomination. I think the voters who are the most remarkable people on the planet have been really clear that they're telling me not now Tim. Not now? Not now is what you
Starting point is 00:03:21 sa when a telemarketer calls you during the dinner time. Not now is what you say when a telemarketer calls you during the dinner time. This was more like we ain't gonna ever. And not now is what you say when a telemarketer calls you during the dinner time. This was more like, we ain't gonna ever, ever, ever, ever. Both for you, f-fied-up ass, any abortion, any gay, milk-dud-looking mother-foo-f-foo. But what's really surprising about this is that we finally got to meet Tim Scott's mystery girlfriend. He brought her out on stage and then a week later he drops out. And you know she was only dating him because she thought he was going to be the president. I bet you he's now like, well, I fell short, but at least we got each other, baby.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Baby? Where did you go, baby? Where did you go, baby? Hoopho! Hopefully they haven't been dating too long because you know Connecticut has a two-week return on white runner. Don't take the tags off Tim. Anyway, Tim Scott is out of the race because when it comes down to it, he just couldn't compete
Starting point is 00:04:43 with Donald Trump. Which is crazy to me because Trump is the dude that is saying shit like this! Donald Trump echoed the dangerous language of infamous fascist leaders. Trump vowed to root out the quote, vermin within the country. We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxist, and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections. Meanwhile Donald Trump is essentially confirming reports that he plans to get revenge on his critics if he wins a
Starting point is 00:05:25 second term. Yeah it could certainly happen in reverse. They've done something that nobody thought would happen. They've done indictments in order to win an election. It could certainly happen in reverse. What they've done is they've released the genie out of the box. You understand that. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, am I tripping? Did he say genie out of the box? Man, this dude can't even tell the truth about genies! The one thing we know about genies is that they come out of a lap. If a genie comes out of a box, that's not a real genie.
Starting point is 00:06:05 That's an elf that went to trade school and then took a genie class. How you gonna trust a genie in a box? If the genie can't afford half wishes, but they definitely gonna be the took up. More importantly, this man is calling American citizens vermin when he is literally, the definition of vermin. He's talking about throwing the definition he's talking about throwing his opponents in jail when he literally should be in jail! And he is the leading candidate. He is the leading candidate.
Starting point is 00:07:09 Can you believe he is the leading candidate? What the fuck America? What did y'all let this happen? Because this ain't my fault. I wasn't paying attention. The man's indicted in every state in America. I didn't know you was allowed to run for the president while you was already running from the popo.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Like, seriously, he doesn't even know that genies go into laps! How is this happening? Am I in the Twilight Zone? Am I having a stroke? I need answers. Somebody, somebody give me a box. Okay, all right, all right. You know what? Jeanne, you are the most powerful being in the universe.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Please tell me what is going on. First of all, Leslie, I gotta tell you I'm not that powerful, I'm not that powerful. I'm not Oprah. All right. Okay, okay, whatever. Can you explain to me what the fuck is going on with Donald Trump? I'm a genie, I'm not Oprah. All right. Okay, okay, whatever. Can you explain to me what the fuck is going on with Donald Trump? Wait, that's your wish?
Starting point is 00:08:32 You are wasted on understanding Donald Trump? Aren't you single? Don't you want a man? You know what, Jeannie, now that you said that, that is a better option. I don't give a fuck about this mother, f'c., I wish for a man, Jeannie. Okay, okay, but just to be clear, I am a box genie, so I don't know exactly what type of man I'm going to bring up here. There's a chance it could be Donald Trump. Oh, oh my! Damn Jeannie. And finally, how about we hear some good news for a change because apparently some powerful men
Starting point is 00:09:23 have been f-ed-around, and now they're about to find out. A major network of high-end Brussels is now busted. The Department of Justice arresting three people on prostitution charges for operations in the suburbs of Boston and in eastern Virginia near Washington D.C. One prosecutor describing it as a commercial sex ring built on secrecy and exclusivity. Though wealthy clientele allegedly included doctors, lawyers, elected officials, tech company execs, plus some military officers and government contractors who have security clearances. It's alleged that the prospective sex buyers in this scheme
Starting point is 00:10:02 first had to respond to a survey and provide information online, including their driver's license photos, their employer information, credit card information, and they often paid a monthly fee to be part of the solicit club. And they also would receive a menu of different options and different women that they could purchase. Wait a minute, wait a minute, what the f-doh, did he just say, did he just say menu? You mean these motherf-fix are ordering sex like they add chilies? You know, if I order a blow-shuh for the table. Would you guys like to share? I'm trying to watch my penis.
Starting point is 00:10:51 It blows my mind that guys will do anything for sex. They're giving over their personal information to strangers. That is so crazy. I won't even give my real birthday to my gynecologist. As far as she knows, my pussy is only 32 years old. But men are over here like, oh you guys do Bukaki? Here's my Social Security number. All right for more on this story. Let's go now to the man who loves going to brothels. Michael Costa. It's great to see you again. No, it ain't.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Leslie, look, I know we have a history, but let's keep it professional. Yeah, we gonna keep it real professional. So what you doing at a brothel, Michael? You cheating on my friend again? Okay, you sent me here to report on the brothel. And Cheryl and I broke up a long time ago, all right? It was mutual. We were just going in different directions. Yeah, and you went in the direction of a brothel. What kind of scumbag even goes to a place like that, Costa?
Starting point is 00:12:10 Well, look, I'm glad you asked, because up to now, it's been kept secret. But thanks to my reporting, I have an exclusive list of the names of all the men who visited this brothel. This is like a 60 minutes level scoop. 60 minutes. I heard you couldn't even last two minutes. Cheryl said your sex is trash. She said y'all went on vacation and you couldn't even get it up.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Oh. Okay, that was my grandfather's funeral, Leslie, and I wasn't in the mood. You weren't in the mood. You don't need to be in the mood. I had a threesome the day Regis Filming died. Okay. That man was my hero, but it is exactly what he would have wanted. Look, look, look, look. Let's try to focus on my exclusive story about these powerful men who may be vulnerable to blackmail.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Mm-hmm. I told Cheryl she should have been with a black male. But did she listen? But did she listen? I don't know what she saw in your Pillsbury Doboy looking ass. Crying like a bitch over your grandfather's casket. I'm done with you, Michael, wrap this shit up. Fine, fine, fine.
Starting point is 00:13:37 We don't know the full extent of the sex ring. But what we do know is that this is the latest scandal in history's oldest profession. For the Daily Show, I'm Michael Costa. You think you better than Lester Holt. You're not. You're not better than Lester Hope. Because you wasn't disdignified when you broke Cheryl's window. Okay, I broke her window because she threw me out of it. Stop being a bitch, Costa! It was only the second floor.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Leslie, what do you want me to do? Get back with Cheryl! She loved you and I love the two of you together. Leslie, that was years ago. I'm married now. I heard Cheryl's married. Yeah, but things things things things things things things things th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thin thin't thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thathings thathings the. thathings thoes thoes thoes' thoes' thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thee the theeeeea thea' the thea' the of you together. Leslie, that was years ago. I'm married now. I heard Cheryl's married. Yeah, but things ain't working out, and I heard he about the fall out of a window. Okay, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:32 If that's what it takes to do my job and to put this behind us, I'll give Cheryl a call. And cheat on your wife? You a piece of shit, Costa. You have not changed. Once a scumback, always a scumbag. I'm done with you. Michael Costa, everybody. Okay, yeah. When we come back, I'm going to save your Thanksgiving dinner, so don't go away! Hey everybody, John Stewart here.

Starting point is 00:15:34 way that they obsess me. The election. Economics. Earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls?

Starting point is 00:16:04 I mean, talk about innovative. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back to the Daily Show. Thanksgiving is coming up and we all know how difficult it is to have dinner with some of your family members. But this year is going to be different. Thanksgiving is just around the corner. And that means getting together with family members who you might not see eye to eye with. But this Thanksgiving, Leslie Jones will come to your house and politely interject when the conversation becomes political.
Starting point is 00:16:49 I'm just thankful that Roe v. Wade was finally overturned. That's the conversation you want to start right now at this table while everybody's happy during Thanksgiving, while we try to be happy. You know what? Have some dry-dry as to the the fuck up. It's insane. The way I see it is your generation are all a bunch of lazy socialists. Who is you calling lazy? You can't even bring proper pie to Thanksgiving. And stop kissing the kids in the mouth. That's nasty. They don't like that. Plus, Leslie can help prevent annoying conversations before they even begin.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Try that mac of shit. Try it. And I'll tell everybody in this room that you use Nana's Wi-Fi to jack off. And if that does it work, Leslie goes back to basics. I'll just say, these transgender people... Ah! Ah! I just...
Starting point is 00:17:54 Can I have some stuff? I feel as... I feel as... Ants, huh? Leslie will even stop by the kids' table to teach them how to shout down problematic relatives. No, no, okay, look, from the diaphragm, you ready? One, two, three. Talking to your family is hard. Watching Leslie Jones shut them down is easy. And I think it should be acknowledged that this dinner is chero-chal-cherole.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Shut up. All this land is taking place on Cherokee land. Shut up! All this land is Cherokee. If we're talking about, can you spell indigenous? You can't even smell it, can't you? Shut up! Don't agree with me. Who invited me to this?
Starting point is 00:18:38 Availa? Availa for all holidays where family are included. When we come back, WNBA star Lisa Leslie will be joining me. Yeah! Go away! Go away! Go away! Go away!
Starting point is 00:18:54 Yeah! Yeah! Hey everybody, John Stewart here. I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show, coming out every Thursday.

Because your book is amazing. Thank you so much. Amazing. I don't know, people, if you haven't got it, get it, listen to it. I'm on chapter six.

It's awesome. Like, we're both from the like same area, right? Like we both played ball in LA. I don't think I was as good as you. I definitely know I was not as good as you. Yeah, I know that too.
Starting point is 00:21:36 But it's okay, because you played ball and you went to college playing ball. That's awesome. And look, I thought I played you in high school. You remember when we first met, I was like, I played against you. Remember we almost got into a fight and you was like, girl. No, I did have a few fights. I did. I would say, my alter ego is probably your persona as a comedian.
Starting point is 00:22:01 So it's like, I'm very calm and collected off the court, but on the court, my game is like how you talk. Exactly. Always. Do not come in my house. Don't come in my house. Right. Don't come in our house.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Okay, so if we play ball like at our best, me at my best, you think would have one. No, that's not a good question you want to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to do to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the over? Because me at my best is the best. Wow. I mean, I'm just going to let you know I would have found you all the time. Oh yeah, for sure. I was the kind of player that I just match whatever energy you come. So if you want to fight, we can fight, we can play nice. Like I really believe in that too. But I love you though. Yeah. It's amazing though, right?
Starting point is 00:22:50 Because we got a chance to be like so fierce and the play of sport that we love. Yes. And for me, it was really about the next generation. You know, we didn't get as much spotlight as young women get now, especially in the W.Nvn. W W W W. And to. And to. And, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th. And, to, th. And, th. And, th. And, the th. And, the to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the the the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, the, the, the, they. And, they. And, they.a, they. And, they.a, they. And, they. And, too, they. And, I, I, the, I, I, the, women get now, especially in the WNBA. But having that opportunity and that platform to be a role model for the next generation, that's all I kept thinking about, is those little girls out there who are gonna see me, who wanna be like me. Yes. So that was it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:23:15 Yes. Because it was so crazy when I was coming up, we didn't have the WM, we can't, you, you, to see it form and you just like I said made it look good and looked good doing it you know what I'm saying like they called you Hollywood Hollywood right and because you know how to dress this is the question I have we're both tall well how hard was it for you to find clothes oh the worst all my clothes first off it was like a men's blazer my mom would like th like to wore a men's jeans I had to get I you know I wear like a back then I only wear like a two or four right right I'm gonna eight now but it's like it was
Starting point is 00:23:53 tough because everything had to be altered for me but I had to buy men's clothes but then I wear like V-necked shirts Mike when I look back at those outfits before I started making money, it was tough. But I always had a feminine nature and I feel like my mom would always teach me to just be true to myself. Everybody else is taken, right? So you had to show up. I started playing basketball late at 12. So I was really into fashion and etiquette and wanting to be a model.
Starting point is 00:24:21 That was my thing. But basketball just and it was like, this is my way. Yeah. How did you become so good? Like, was it coaching or was you already like? Like, thank you. Thank you. You know, it was my, it's my work ethic. I know, first off, I'm very competitive.

It's a th. thi. toa. t toa. toa. toa. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Don't come to my house if you're not ready to compete. Like people that say like, oh no, it's not that serious. Oh no, you probably don't want to come over here. Don't come over here. Don't come over here. I don't want to take the fun out before you so I'm just going to win.

Don't come back. People might not know. Renig means to play a book that is.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Yes. Yes. the game and you don't realize. You know what that is. Right. Competition is my thing though. So I've always loved being competitive. But fashion was something that I liked. I couldn't afford to do at a high level. But I just feel like when you have style. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Sotomayor, I'm not. Yeah, because I don't think I had style until I had style until I had style. Yeah, because I don't think I had style until I got a stylist. And that's for real. Like two weeks ago? No. Until Brian started dressing me, child. He saw my closet when he first met me, he was like, oh, oh, oh, oh, you know. I mean, yeah, because it's just buying stuff that fit.
Starting point is 00:26:00 And New York and company was the only place that had jeans and stuff that was. I'm sorry.

Right. But if I play now, I would have made so much more money because I was into fashioning, you know, skin care, hair care, being a role model, deodorant, anything, teeth paste for teeth, you know? Yeah, right. It's not too late folks out there. You know, they can get your number. Because their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, their, thi, their, their, their, but their, but their, but thi, but, but, but thi, but th. But, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

You know, they can get your number. They can call me, but yeah, I think I would have had a more lucrative outcome if I play now and I still have been blocking shots like, you know, me and Asia, me and Asia would have
Starting point is 00:27:56 been going out. Oh my God, I love her. Now, because you don't. Because you don't. And I'm gonna ask you the question, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, to, to, to, to, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, the, the, the, the, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, the, I, I, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, they. And, they. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, they's, they's, they're, they're, they're, they. And, they. And I'm going to ask you the question. See, I know a lot of men ask you this because, you know, men love to ask dumbass questions. But I know a lot of men have asked you like, hey, should we lower the rim so y'all can dunk more and it could be more excited? Right. What's your answer to that?
Starting point is 00:28:17 Oh. My answer is no. I think the game is amazing. If anybody has watched the WNBA, you already know, these ladies are playing at such a high level. It's like blurred lines with the men and the women. Yes, the dunk is amazing. Yes, more women have dunked, but I wouldn't change anything about our game. The product is phenomenal. Even college women's basketball is phenomenal. Can't wait for Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark to get to the W. They're like, it's just amazing. We're doing a great job. So will we look at the camera right now and look at all those people who... Which one you want
Starting point is 00:28:54 to be looking at? One or two? I don't know, which one we look at. This one right here. All the people that doubted that the WNBA was going to make the th. All th. All th. All th. All th. All th. All the th. All th. All th. All th. All th. All the th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. It's the th. th. It's just the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. It it it's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's just just just just just just just just just thi. It's just the. It's just the. It's just the. It's just the. It's just the. It's just the. It's just thi. It's just th to make it. Right. Right. You voted. Yeah. Whatever. Hey, we at the bank though. We're at the bank, baby. We're cash and checks. That's right. Now, what I heard about, Neal deals, I think they called NILs?
Starting point is 00:29:18 Is it? NIL deals? Yeah. Yeah, so they get those in college on which child we were I was so broken college like Yes, like what like what is the advantage of that because you know they make more money than being in the WNBA? I do know that which so here's a deal yeah in college I have five dollars. I used to get a burrito with a burrito and you eat happy for a practice a breat. A breedo because you be happy before practice and then half after the practice. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. I I I I I I. their. their. they. they. they. they. they. they. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah..... Yeah.................................................................................... they.. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. after the practice. NIL, these women and men are getting paid so much money for their deals. The same thing else, whether it's cosmetics, outfits, they're getting their Nike and other shoe deals early on when you're in college.
Starting point is 00:29:57 So imagine that I had to wait. I signed my first Nike deal my first day after my last game. So I had to be completely finished from being eligible in college before I could go pro. Now you do realize that only applies and usually sports that are dominated by African-American. So that happens to the football players and the basketball players but there are other sports that that is not apply. You can you can get endorsement deals in other sports. Tnis, soccer, you know,
Starting point is 00:30:27 other sports. So it's interesting that this NIL really opens the door for so many athletes and especially athletes from our communities that there is no trust fun happening that they are the first millionaires ever in their family. And their first one making money to even be able to support the family to be able to send money back. It's like a lot tho tho tho tho tho th. Yeah th. Yeah the th. Yeah the the the th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their is their is their is their is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. their their their their their their. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. their. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. their. their. Yeah. their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. the. the. the. the. the. the. their. their. their their their their their family. And the first one making money to even be able to support the family, to be able to send money back. It's like a lot of people are leaving a big family that like they probably was working and helping. Yes. Yeah, let me just tell you.
Starting point is 00:30:54 My mom drove a 18-willed truck. My mom would give me $200 if she could do it every month or every other month and I would have to manage while at USC with all these kids who come from a background of money and I'm trying to manage this $200 just to like make it hence the $500 burritos. So you know your eating is not as healthy as it could because you don't have enough money to necessarily eat healthy. So I thi. I think the Nile deal is is is is is is is is the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. the is. thr. thr. the is. te. teeeeee. te. tea. tea. tea. tea. te. te. the. the. the. the. th. the the NIL deal is opening doors for so many kids, and the key to that is gonna be money management. Because a lot of times we ignore those conversations because we didn't have money. So if you don't have money, how do you know how to take care of money, how to invest money?
Starting point is 00:31:32 And hence, that's how I got into real estate. Yeah, yeah, because I. That's my biggest advice. I became a real estate professional with my husband. We have the Lockwood group, which is our real estate company. We are in the luxury space with Keller Williams. But why? It's because it's important to invest your money and get the return on your money. And a lot of times, kids, especially when you're first generation, you're thinking, how's cars, chains, necklace stuff, right? Because that's what we see that you think people with money.
Starting point is 00:32:07 But in fact, it's about that education of where, how can you make this money, make money for you. You will not be able to play forever, right? And you got to take care of your kids. And you get old. Well, people when you know, when you know, when you're you're you're you're you're 19 you're 19 you're 19 you're 19 you're 19 you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19, you're 19,to a 19 year old. And you don't know that you can return 40 and not be able to play that sport. Yes, and that money could have just created compound interest for you. It's a way to make a living for not only your family, but the family that you might have in the future.
Starting point is 00:32:37 And so that's always our message when we're trying to get our real estate company out there. We deal with a lot of celebrities and athletes in helping them to invest that money so that they'll have it to return and share with their family. So let me know when you're ready to buy some. Girl you know I am. I want to ask you and this is probably something just off the cuff for me. Yeah. What would you tell black girls like us that's tall and awkward? That's tall and awkward and don't thaaa tall tha tall thauauauauauauauauau th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their thi. the. to to to to to toeeeeea. toea. toea. toea. toea. toea. toe. the. the. the. the. th know how to really express how they feel or just just kind of scared and walk hunched over because they're ashamed or they height or what they look like what would you say to them? My first thing is about having faith. I was a child that has so much faith in God. And I was praying like Lord, let them see me as beautiful. You know you want to be appealing, but it's hard when you just don't, I mean we didn't have allthe stuff all hooked up you're just a regular kid looking out there in the world
Starting point is 00:33:26 and I feel sorry sometimes for these kids because they have social media so they're being exposed to even more beautiful perfect looking people with all these filters and all these things I could they would be so discouraged I think if I was a young kid now but I would just say to learn to love yourself and then just be patient. Write down your goals. That was the biggest thing for me. My short-term goals were goals I wanted to achieve within one year and then my long-term goals were goes I wanted to achieve within five years. And those goals kept me focus. I put them on my mirror in the bathroom. I put but when I see these goals my sacrifice was go to the gym and put up the 200 shots 500 shots as opposed to going to the mall hanging out with my home girls. That's real talk that's real talk you've got to
Starting point is 00:34:11 be uncomfortable you got to be uncomfortable to me be successful sometimes for a little while you know you got to work it one of the things Kobe and I would always talk about the great Kobe I the great I I I I the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great the great to to to to to to to to to to to to the the great I to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to to to the the to the the to to the the to to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to to. that's to that's. that's. that's. I that's. I that's. I so much. That, it's just everybody's not willing to make the sacrifice. No, no. And they don't understand. They want the, they want to now, but they don't want to have. Yeah, yeah, it's hard work. Yeah. Yeah, it's hard work.
