Today on Girl Chat, till death do us part, why women love their besties more than their husbands, and any objections? Would you let someone propose at your wedding? NO. OH MY GOD. PLUS, from United Shades of America, W. Camal Bell is here. The real starts now. This another minute. This is our time. It's time to start right now. We got a choice. Starting right now.
Welcome to the y'all. Hope you're doing okay out there. Hello. WELL, WHO'S READY FOR SOME GIRL CHAT? OKAY. All right. First up, every girl dreams of her wedding day when all of her family and friends shower her with love and tell her how beautiful she is. However, one bride decided to share her big day with her brother. not marry him, but just stick with it. Okay, that's right. A Alabama bride named Amy was getting ready to toss her bouquet when she faked out her guest and handed her flowers to her brother's girlfriend. Her brother then got on one knee and proposed. Amy said that getting to share her wedding with her brother was one of the most special days of her life. That's so sweet.
I love that lady. Have you ever been as generous on your big day as Amy was? I think it's bum two for one deal, man. Yeah. Are you kidding me? Like you get your whole family there. You don't miss out on the photography. You got video there. So everything is captured in one moment. I'm glad they planned it instead of the brother doing it on his own cuz some people do that you know they went to the reception then that kind of like but because the sister already knew about it and they planned it that the only thing I wanted was for the sister to have I mean for the bride to have another bouquet for
the single ladies CUZ NOT SINGLE LADIES YOU know you're right maybe she did and they just all the time I why DO YOU FEEL BAD FOR them because it's you know customary that you know tradition Oh, those got dating apps. THEY'RE FINE. NO, WE'RE GOOD. THERE ARE WOMEN who do look forward to that. They'll even fight. Oh, yes. Yeah. [screaming] Wait, are there women Wait, do you guys women do you actually take it seriously that I did? That tradition. Do you I did and I caught it and I got married so I believe in it. Yes, I did. Wait, did you know this? No, that's the tradition, Genie. That's why they say, you know, usually it happens. I thought it was I guess I thought it was just for fun.
Wait, did you like throw in like did you go in? So, there was a time, you guys. There was a time in my life where I actually would run away from the bouquet. I didn't want it. You'll see those girls. But then when I was ready, I was ready. And guess where I caught it? I caught it at my sister's wedding. OH MY GOD. I DID. YES. YEAH. I didn't know this. That's awesome. Yeah. I caught mine at my best friend's I didn't get that back. I was like, "Why is this in my hand?" You know, like, "No, I'd be like deflect. I'd be like, "Oh, hell no."
Okay. Wait, Lonnie, did you attempt to catch it at my wedding? No, you were the DJ. You were the MC. I was the DJ, the MC, the uh the waiter, the security guard. But you Ravon caught it. My friend Raon who sang when I walked down the aisle actually won it and took it serious. They took it very serious. Yeah, THAT'S NO, THE BOUQUET TOSS THE GARTER TOSS IS NOT WHAT'S not because guys don't they're the ones like my cousin Caleb got the garter. Yeah. But the bouquet toss is important. So, but I think that's nice. Is there any other day that maybe you would you could think of that you know maybe it's important to you like maybe graduation. I mean I remember my graduation from college that was a
really important day and then my mom ended up telling me something really important that happened that day as well. So, I did share that, but I don't think anything else like a wedding I wouldn't mind sharing my wedding with my brothers. I'm actually very close to them. The only thing is I would have to make sure that I really liked the girl, like I'd have to love her. She would have to feel like a part of the family. You want to share with your brother, you're just not sure you want to share that special day with the girl. I get that. I actually was in a situation where um I went on a birthday vacation to the Dominican Republic. It was a
couple's uh trip, a bunch of couples, and it was for a friend's birthday. We went, we went to the club, we partied till the we hours, right? And then we like went up to their suite after to keep the party going. And one of the guys uh in the couple felt like, "Oh my god, there's so much love. It's been such an awesome night." He decided right in that moment to get down on one knee and ask his the mother of his children to marry him. Oh wow. It was a beautiful moment. We all enjoyed it. And the birthday boy WAS FREAKING PISSED. WHAT? NO, he was pissed like yo like you gonna take my moment right now and like this is not it's my birthday like really making it about
what year birthday was it like 30 40 milestone? It was like in 30 something. He was in his 30some. Yeah. And he legit felt some type of way that he this guy asked his big mama to marry him. And I we all thought it was such a beautiful woman. We thought he was joking. The next day we're still on this vacation together. He was stank. He was not happy about it. Even a guy will get caught up in his feelings about it. No, he seriously was like that was rude. Like that was my birthday. He could have waited something like that. Ask for the person's permission and say, you know, I'm thinking about I think that would have helped because I think
that he asked our friend like, "Yo, I'm thinking of doing this. Is this cool?" But I think you think if people love you and they're your friends, they're going to be down for you and happy for you. What do you guys think about this? How about announcing a pregnancy at a wedding? Do you think that at a baby shower? I'm sorry. Announcing a pregnancy at a baby's house. They're saying you're celebrating your baby. No, that's too much, right? Okay. Why? Because it's it's too much of the same lines. Like, why? No, because it's the baby shower. You're celebrating that person. It's that person's day. So, let them have their day. I mean, YOU CAN, YOU KNOW, DO IT
ONLINE OR, you know, find a way. IT'S JUST LIKE this is our time. Wait another minute for your time. Yeah. Like, Crazy. I love you guys. You know. Well, speaking of sharing, in a marriage, you're supposed to share everything with your partner, right? What's mine is yours. Yes. Well, except when it comes to flying. According to Daily Mail, there is an increasing number of men insisting on flying first class while their wives sit in coach.
Yeah, rude. For example, 30-year-old Tina Kumar says her husband, Aaron, regularly travels in business class for work. When she accompanies him, he buys her a cheap seat in the economy section of the plane. She says his excuse is that he needs to prepare for all of his meetings and that he needs a seat that will provide him proper rest. But what does she need? Right. Exactly. Wow. So, ladies, would it fly with you if your man did this? Absolutely not. She needs a comfortable seat to put up with that bull, man. That's rude. That is chivalry.
Yes. And first or equal. Yeah. Like, okay, I'm just going to keep it real. Mhm. This has happened to me before in this situation. Israel has more frequent flyer miles than I do. So, he gets upgraded. And sometimes because I don't fly as much as he does, sometimes my seat don't be in first class. Okay. Right. And I have got to say my husband would never do this not just to me to anybody. He wouldn't do this to my mother. He wouldn't do this to Tam. He wouldn't do this. If we were flying together, he would be like, first of all, the first option for him always is, "Babe, you take my seat." But then I don't like to fly by myself. So, Israel has actually downgraded
to sit with me and coach if I can't if the both of us can't be in first class. And I love this. He actually found I had like a 14-year-old kid sitting next to me once and he asked the little kid like, "Would you mind upgrading? You'll be in first class." And it was the kid's first time in first class. So, he in first class and me and Israel, we're like, "Yo, we'll be in coach together, but we in coach like this and I love that." My husband did THE SAME THING THAT A GOOD MAN first class. What's y'all talking about? He a good man. Wait, but if it was your husband, I can understand. Like I know I couldn't But okay, in this case, you got to understand it's a price difference. So
the thing is that some I think like in it shoot cuz it's um it's pounds. So it's like 300. Like let's just say for the sake of it, it's $2,500 for the first class and her seat was like $500. So he didn't want to pay extra 2500. So then you get both coach. Yeah. Yes. But no, but the thing is that sometimes it depends on the person because it's like me. I'm a bigger person. So I, you know, whoever my boyfriend is, he's sitting in coach cuz I'm not going to pay for You do that. Okay, Lonnie. Yes, I would do that to you. Yes, I would. I assed up my wedding. What? Tell it. Gone. You started it. Tell it. Oh, come on.
What happened? Tell it. Okay. Because it was my wedding. Everybody was in I guess when you travel abroad. No idea what there I have no idea. I forget what she's saying. Everybody was going to ride in business class, right? Not me. Wait, hold on. I upgraded myself from business to first class, my husband and I, because it's my wedding. Like, so I upgraded. You got to dress. So I get up there to first in business class. I know that you guys know you were in business. Yes. I get to first class. Guess who's sitting right next to me? Ding, ding, ding. She was like, "Oh, no." She left
Jachu behind in business and Lonnie was up in the front with me. I WAS LIKE, "WHERE'S EVERYBODY ELSE?" CUZ I NEVER KNEW THAT. Lonnie was in first class with me FOR MY WEDDING. YES, SHE WAS RIGHT UP THERE LIKE THE SECOND BRIDE. LIKE, YES, CHAMPAGNE, ordering things. I rode up in first class and we were like, "Where the rest of the girls?" She's like, "I don't know, sweetie, but you want some more champagne?" OKAY, CHECK THIS OUT. One of my first jobs where I could afford a ticket to Paris cuz the tickets to Paris
are like 2500 and above for first class. I took my mom to Paris because she's never been to Paris and she, you know, Vietnamese are a little bit they share a border colony with the French and so she's like, I want to go to rich people. Let's go France. I'm like, yes, let's go. So, I bought her first class tickets on the day. We get into our seats. I'm 1 A. Mama Mai's 1B. I look to 1B. There's a white man sitting there. I'm like, where is Mama Mai? SHE SAYS, "GOODBYE, HONEY." She walks past me into coach. She returned my first class ticket, pocketed the money, and then stole liquor from the cabinet to drink in her coach seat.
Wow. Pocketed. POCKETED MY MONEY. I WANT THAT REFUND. MOM, you give me back my money now. That is crazy. Speaking of something that might not fly with your husband or your shady mom, your wife might be having an emotional affair with her bestie. According to a recent study by spa and healthcare companies Champ, women actually love their best friends more than their husbands. The women surveyed just felt that it was easier to have a heart-to-he heart conversation with their best friend without them being judgmental. So babes, husbands may be till death do us part but are best friends forever. What do you think about this?
I think it's a difference because men think differently than women. So if you go to a spa with your husband or your significant other, you know, it's just things that you want to do at the spa that he can't do with you and you're just having a good time. And it's like you I mean it's just a difference. Men and women are just different when they're thinking. And so I think that's what this is actually saying. So I don't think that it's a difference of being better cuz I see your husbands to me are your best friends. I was about to say yeah my husband but you enjoyed me a lot. I'M A GOOD TIME.
NO, YOU ARE. YES, you are. BUT I CAN TALK to my husband about anything. Me, too. Um I think the only thing I may not bother him with is like the women petty stuff. Like he doesn't really care. Sally rolled her eyes at me today and I can see that. So that's when I would probably go and talk to Andrea, talk to Lonnie. So yeah, I'm I married my best friend and I'm grateful for that. Yeah, that's what I mean. It's a difference. There is a difference. And you're right, they shouldn't be compared. They are just It's like comparing apples and oranges. They're two completely both significant relationships, but they're just two completely different relationships. And I'm sorry, but I
if I had to choose who I am emotionally more attached to, I'm emotionally more attached to my husband. That's my husband. Like my soulmate. Like I think it the intimacy is at a whole other level. Someone wants to tell me something intimacy. Intimacy in my intimacy. It's in my bajene where my friend is not. Yes. So there's that. Make love to that friend. Someone who was married for about 40 years once told me that the secret to a lasting marriage is the ability to both talk to one another. And when I heard it, I was like early there's got to be something else like counseling or not learning how to fight. Well, I didn't get it. But then I realized that when you get older, you lose the things that maybe got you
hot in the first place. Your physical attraction, your sex, your things that you like to do together, you might lose money at some place where you just begin to just spend time. But when you can really talk to each other, you know what I'm saying? Like things change. But if you really can sit in a room and just have each other and that's why Adrian, I do give it up to you and Israel because for all y'all who don't know Adrian like we do here, we spend like more we more more time than some of our time our spouses in this job. Adrienne, I love you. She can talk a lot. Yo, she talks so much.
She just has a lot of stories, a lot of opinions. But I love that every time you talk, Israel is always talking with you. He's always listening. He's always there. and he deserves a prize for that. Yes. So, I see you guys for sure. Yeah. Like we enjoy each other's company and I tried explaining that like obviously I've been in relationships before. I get it what it is to be in love. And you know, a lot of you guys were like, "Oh my gosh, she just wants to get married." Actually, no, because if I did, I would have already done that. But I think it's important that you look beyond just the in love
feelings like you're saying, "Yo, that is my best friend." Like my friend. And I think we developed that obviously because we had a friendship. And then furthermore, we talked on the phone a lot, which I actually hate talking on the phone, but we talked so much because we weren't together a lot. We were traveling a lot. And I love that we could talk together for hours about anything. And that has proven to be true over the last two years. Like, it's just been amazing. I'm trying to tell you, Israel is We like each other. Israel is a special man. He give up his seat for you cuz I wouldn't. I remember that time you were sick and you was DOING ALL THEM STORIES. I WAS LIKE, I WISH HE COME BACK HOME cuz this is just
she spent the night with me. No. Oh my god. There was one time you were sick and I crawled into bed with Adrian at her house and I was sitting there and she was just nervous about medications and stuff, but she was like, I'm sick. I'm tired and did you know about this? And I love this show. Girl, you got TO WATCH BASKETBALL WIVES AND I was just sitting there like, oh my god. And as soon as I came home and he's like, honey, I'm home. I'm like, thank you Israel. I'm out OF HERE. THANK YOU. Thank God for Israel. Thank God for Israel and Adam.

we'll BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE OF THE REAL AFTER THIS. Welcome back to the room. Let's get back into more girl chat. Being a mom of two kids, I know a thing or two when it comes to snacks. However, people aren't just eating snacks, they're dressing like them, too. Nowadays, when someone calls you a snack or a schmack, They're trying. I did it right. THEY'RE TRYING TO TELL YOU THAT you look good to eat. But how exactly does one look like a snack? Well, according to Classy Kinks blogger Ejama, looking like a snack is as simple as dressing for your body, working your angles, and being confident in your curves. So, lady, would you consider it a compliment to be called a savory snack?
I say, "Bae, it's a snack." He said, "It's a entree. I want to be an entree. I don't just want to be a snack. I want to be the full course meal." Okay. I want to be the entree. Three sides and a drink. That's right. Then what people used to say, "OH, DO YOU ALL THAT a bag OF CHIPS?" I took it way back. Yeah. My goodness. I like I think it's cute cuz I like I mean I like snacks so I see it as a compliment you know even shorty though. You remember that? Hey shorty.
You like that only because you really are but don't call me biggie. Okay that's all right player. That's all right. You know. Wait. If you were a snack like you look at yourself in like your when you feel in it. I already know. Oh what kind of snack? What kind of snack are you? Oh my gosh. Warm chocolate chip cookies and some milk. And warm milk. Not cold milk. Warm milk. You know, you dip that cookie in the milk.
Tell us how you really feel. Honey, what's wrong? I told you I love snacks. OH MY GOD. I WHAT ARE YOU Ging since we talking? Um, I think I would be Jeie going TO BE A HEALTHY SNACK. NO, NO, NO, NO. NOWADAYS, when I'm eating a little bit more and I'm enjoying my carbs and just stacking it on, I think I would be a hot spicy shuan dumpling for you. Dribbles, when you take a bite, it just kind of cools down a little bit. You got to Yes. What about you, Lonnie? Adrian, what are you going to I have options. Like, I was thinking right now what I could be. Like, I think I'm going to go with
a surprise and panala. Like, you don't even know what's inside. That's delicious. You know, it's like deep fried and crispy on the outside, but gooey on the Oh, this is getting weird. Got you, honey. Lemon pepper wings. I don't got THAT'S ALL I GOT. I GOT SNACKS. That's for me. It's a snack. Okay. Lemon pepper wings. That's a THAT'S AN ENTREE. WE HAVE TO TAKE A QUICK BREAK, BUT there's more girl chat on the way. Right after this, you're watching the real.
Welcome back, friends. Let's get right back into some more girl chat. As I What are you eating? Adrian, do it. No, keep going. YOU GOT A SNACK. ADRIEN ATE A SNACK DURING THE BREAK. NOW YOU GOT TO DO IT. THAT'S THE GUT PUNISH. You go. You got in life. It's always good to tell the truth like I JUST DID. BUT WHEN IT comes to going to the doctor, how honest are you about your health? Prevention Mag Prevention Magazine recently found that many patients are straight up lying to their doctors because they're afraid to look bad or embarrassed about their not so healthy habits. Some of the biggest lies people tell their doctor include how much alcohol they're drinking, how severe their symptoms really are, and how often
they're having unprotected sex. This is so dangerous. So ladies, have you ever misled your MD? So explain misled. Like when the doctor tells you, "How many unprotected partners have you had?" Or do you keep it real? This is very Samantha Sex in the City. remember or when he asked, "How many partners have you had in the past?" or "How many drinks do you frequent a week?" Things like that. Do you lie, Lonnie? Uh, you know, I don't lie because when I was younger, I used to lie about it. And then when they take these tests, they can find out certain things like your cholesterol and your numbers. And then they said, "This happens because you're doing this and
you're doing that." So, I found as I get older, YOU JUST DON'T LIE. JUST GO ON AND TELL THEM THE TRUTH. If you a if your liver is failing, maybe you should cut back on the drinks, you know. No, no, cuz seriously, if you drink a lot of liver, that could be kidney damage, you know, if you do have a lot of unprotected sex, which we do not recommend here at the real you, you know, you could be you could have HIV, you could have some type of STD. So, they have to test for those certain things cuz that's what they'll do. BUT IF THEY DON'T KNOW, THEY WON'T TEST FOR IT AND YOU'LL BE SITTING up there sick.
Especially what your diet is, too. Because I know me and my doctor, Dr. Stevenson, we made a pack. Like this was um last year we said that we both needed to lose weight cuz his stomach was out. Like my stomach was out. I said, "Look, WE BOTH NEED to lose some weight. So, why don't we make a pack and we'll try to lose. I've lost more weight than he has. He's lost 20. I've lost 30." So, that's amazing. It's just telling the truth, you know. Do you always tell the truth? Um, I'm always I there was one time that I actually forgot, but let me explain. Um, I, you guys know I had my blood drawn recently just to check my cholesterol.
Um, I'm forever confused why my cholesterol is like really, really high. However, one test actually said I was pre-diabetic. And I'm like, wait a minute, I don't eat. And literally the doctor's looking at me like, Tamara, don't eat pastas, you know, don't eat a lot of sugar. I'm like, I don't eat all that stuff. I forgot that week I drank an entire bottle of wine with that one right there. Ding, ding, ding. And it showed up in my blood, but I didn't remember. HOW IS THAT? WELL, I told you though, Lonnie. I told you I was going to get my blood drawn.
Do you remember US HAVING THAT CONVERSATION? OH, THANKS. SOUNDS LIKE IT'S TIME FOR OUR MAYHEM GIVEAWAY. AND IT'S COMING RIGHT THIS WAY. LOOK UP, LADIES. That's right, FOLKS. THERE'S THIS PRODUCT CALLED MOONLIGHT PRIMER FROM A COMPANY called Make that we must tell you about. It's a primer that moisturizes, primes, mattifies, and preps skin for makeup. AND GUESS WHAT? YOU'RE ALL GOING HOME WITH MAKE MOONLIGHT TRACKER. THAT IS AWESOME. FOR THOSE AT HOME, GO TO THERE.COM FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN. WE GOT TO TAKE A BREAK, but we'll be RIGHT BACK WITH MORE OF THE REAL.
Welcome back. Our next guest is an Emmy award-winning comedian and his show on CNN, United Shades of America, is currently in its third season. Please give it up for W. Quumar Bale. Hey, so far away to meet you so far away. Hello. I love your shirt. I love it. That's cool. That's awesome. I love it. You guys check out a shirt. It says it crosses out thoughts and prayers and it says policy change which is really imagine a combination of both. Yes. Yeah. I'm still down with the prayers. I'm still black in America. Well, welcome to the show. We're so happy to have you here.
Thanks for having me. This is a lot. Hey everybody. Hey. All right. So, you recently posted on Instagram that you were chilling with one of our girls, Tracy Ellis Ross. I mean chilling. I was lightly stalking. I think it's more accurate. What do you mean? She So I work at CNN and uh whenever I'm in town in New York, I sort of hang out in the hallways looking for famous people. Oh, okay. And she came around and I knew she was going to be there, so I just acted like I was doing something like, "Look at this paint. It's really paint here." And then she came around the corner. I was like, "Hey." And she actually knew who I was, which
is really exciting. Which is why I look so EXCITED IN THAT PICTURE. AWESOME. I was like, "Finally, my prom photo." Yeah. So, I heard we have something in common. I didn't go to prom. Why didn't you go to prom? not popular, I guess. Thanks for bringing it up, though. I'm sorry. No, it's okay. No, I've gotten over it. I'm uh married with many children, so it's fine. But no, I just wasn't I didn't know how to talk to ladies or even men at the time, so yeah, it just sort of like you just mentioned, you're happily married to a beautiful wife and he has two kids and one on the way. Yes. Congratulations on Despite how it looks, it's not me whose charact.
A few weeks ago, you talked about an experience you and your wife had uh where you were actually racially profiled. Yeah. So, uh January 2015, uh I was at a coffee shop where a lot of, you know, racism goes down. Uhhuh. Uh so I was at a coffee shop and uh with my wife, we ate breakfast there. I left. My wife called me and said, "Hey, come back. I'm with my friends. We just she just had a baby, our 13-week old baby. I went back to talk to my wife and the baby. On the way, I bought a book about the loving couple, which is the intellectual couple that she got on the anti. Yeah. So, I bought this children's book for my kids because I got mixed kids. Uh, and so I walk back, I see my
wife and our 13week old baby. And I'm like showing the book off to her and her friends. And somebody knocks on the window and goes, "Get out of here." Cuz they thought I was bothering them cuz my wife is white, her friends are white, my baby looks white, but she's actually a double agent. So, okay. Double agent. So, they told me to scram and get out of the coffee shop. And in that moment, we had that thing where as black people like, "What do you do in that moment? How do you do it?" We stood, my wife stood up and we're like, "We're going.
We're gonna get out of here." And before we left, my wife's like, "Hold on a second." And she went into the coffee shop and found the woman who had done it and just read her for filth. WOW. YEAH. I love Yeah. She's a hashtag woke white wife. You know what I mean? Well, I heard NOW THAT THE COFFEE SHOP has closed down. Are you being blamed for that? I am being blamed for it. People are a lot of I it's in Berkeley. a lot of white liberals who claim to love uh Yeah, you know what I'm talking about.
Yes, I'm fine with liberalism until it affects my coffee shop. So, so yeah, I'm being blamed for closing a coffee shop that I didn't open. So, I don't know how I could close it. Exactly. Let it roll. Okay. Yeah. Well, your show United Shades of America visits communities around America and talks about the challenges that they face. And recently you explored H.B.CU. Yes. And you talk about why they are under fire. So, tell us more about that. I mean, people have a real false idea of HB.CU. People are like, "How come we don't have white colleges and universities?"
We do. It's called Princeton, Harvard, Yale. You know, heard UCLA. And so, HB.CU, I found out, are places for black people to go where the pressure of being black is not weighing on you 24 hours a day. You can let it go. You can hang out. If I had known that, I would have applied to an H.B.CU. Uh, but it's a place for black people to go and just sort of relax and actually just focus on studying instead of like in the Yale school getting woken up for napping by the cops. You know what I mean? So, and yeah, so we've talked about I'm a proud graduate of H.B.CU preview a university. So, I totally get what you mean.
Yeah. Well, we have a sneak peek from an upcoming episode of your show. Let's take a look. The mainstream talk whenever HB.CU U come up, there's that talking point of like, you know, why do we still have HBCU? How come we don't have white college? If I had a white college, that would be racist. Can you speak to that? I think the anxiety white people have is that there's a place that black people can access that they can't. It's like the N word, right? It's like, wait a minute, there's something we can do that you can do that we can't. Yeah. But the truth is, white people can go to H.B.CU. My first day at more houses, I saw white people walking around. There's white people at Howard. There's white
people at Clark. Truth is, white people have access to it and they choose not to go because they don't want to go to places that are marked as black. Yeah. And that's okay. That is a huge misception. Yeah. Misconception that white people can't go to an HB. No. They get scholarships and everything just like all the other colleges. You know, you know, HB.CU are located in America and white people tend to be able to go everywhere in America. So, Exactly. You know, so they are I talked we talked to a white student in the episode about why they went to an H.B.CU. So,
it's always good. Now, when you saw um Beyonce's Coachella performance and it was dedicated to H.B.CU's, what did you think about it? It's like, why didn't you call me for doing a whole episode? B, couldn't you call me? No, I think it's a it's amazing. And we talked about that with Mark Lamont Hill about the idea that black celebrities, even those who did not go to H.B.CU, need to take it upon themselves and ourselves to support H.B.CU. Exactly. The way that white people who could never get into Harvard, give Harvard a lot of money. You know what I mean? So, Exactly.
We have to as a community support H.B.CU. Great. So, since you've traveled all over America, where is one place you do not want to ever visit again? Uh, the first episode of United States of America, I talked to the Kulux Clan. Okay. I don't need to go back. I don't need to. It was in uh Dawson Springs, Kentucky in Arkansas. How do you feel it ended up the conversation? I mean, I was able to have a conversation with the clan. They were able to have a conversation with me. I think at the end a few of them were like, "I think it's weird. I like a black person now." Right.
But yeah, but I think I don't need to do a where are they now? Klas clan edition. I don't need to go back. Why not? Did you not feel There's so many stories to tell. There's so many people to talk to and so many stories of people who need the microphone in front of them that I don't need to go back and give it to people who already have a president who's got that microphone. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you. Thank you very much. Awesome. You guys can catch his show, United Shades of America on CNN Sunday nights at 10. Don't move a muscle.
