Getting Out The Podcast
Raw, unfiltered, conversations and interviews filled with laughter.
Getting Out is Hosted By Me, Jesse Xander, Im a singer/songwriter, musician, and audio engineer…..oh yeah, I’m also an ex con and a recovering addict. I have 6 years clean from heroin. 3 of which were spent in prison, all during covid and locked down 24 hours a day for the majority of my time. So every day is a gift that I have to remind myself to even open.
I spent most of my young life in the Entertainment industry. I had the privilege to work with artists such as The Sugar Hill Gang, Biz Markie, Poppa Don, Inner Party System, and many others but I went down the wrong path. Before I knew it I was in sooo deep I didn't think id ever be able to GET OUT, let alone repair all the damage I caused. But I’m alive and I’m free.
I started Getting Out to tackle topics such as addiction, mental health and Prison Life-which comes with stories of loved ones passing and a lot of pain. But also stories of redemption and over coming. GETTING OUT gives us a chance to look at ourselves our past mistakes, and hopefully help someone that is dealing with something similar.. Or maybe you’re just interested in what prison life is like and want a good laugh? We got you.
Learn to laugh at the person you were, use your mistakes as your personal super power.
Only way past it….is THROUGH IT. So lets get out together!

Getting Out The Podcast
Ep 52 Redefining Reality with Terrence Howard & ChatGPT4o
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if everything we learned about math was wrong? Terrence Howard, the guy from 'Empire' and 'Hustle & Flow,' seems to think so. Join us as we dive into his wild and controversial ideas about math and energy. Can he really change our understanding of the universe? Who knows, but it's a hilarious and fascinating ride.
We’ll also uncover some mind-blowing stuff like the secrets of the pyramids and how ancient civilizations might be connected. And, get this—KDG has never seen Terminator! Plus, he was almost cast as young Forrest Gump. Yeah, our minds were blown too.
But that’s not all! Ever get the feeling someone’s watching you? Well, with new AI models popping up every day, it’s more real than ever. We’ll unpack the creepy world of modern surveillance, from your devices listening in to the government making us believe 1 X 1 =1!! Don't sweat it. It’s not all doom and gloom, though. We’ll chat about AI's impact on jobs, both the ones it’s taking away and the ones it’s creating. And because we like to keep things interesting, we’ll even talk about the rise of sex robots. It’s a complex, compelling conversation, grounded with a nod to "I, Robot."
This show isn’t just about tech and theories, though. We dive deep into personal stories of growth, battling addiction, living with a disability & deep HUMAN connection. From youthful recklessness to the clarity that comes with hard-earned life lessons. We cover it all. Whether we’re reflecting on the impact of our choices or navigating the digital chaos of modern life, this episode, like every other is full of laughs, nostalgia, and the kind of candid talk you can only have with old friends. Don’t miss "Diddy's" heartfelt apologies bc he's on deck again! more revelations in future episodes!
If you want to know if the fire will burn your hand without actually doing it, look no forward.

Exploring AI, Mathematics, and History
Speaker 1I'm so high, so high.
Speaker 2I really can't smell it all, see it red in my eyes. Yes, you can, yes, you can.
Speaker 1Let's smoke, smoke. Come on go yeah, let's smoke, let's smoke, yeah, and we are here. Yeah, ladies, we are here. And, gentlemen, chillin', we were fuckin, ladies, we are here gentlemen, chill, we were fucking going nuts today.
Speaker 2Huh, yeah, buddy, we got it done. Though, yeah, we did. No, but I'm saying, with all that shit we were learning and listening to.
Speaker 1Oh, that was deep.
Speaker 2That was deep, right, yeah, that was crazy. So for everyone that doesn't know, we rather brought up Terrence howard a couple of uh episodes ago, right, crazy insane he made him sound like he was uh like out of his mind and I kind of thought I didn't see the video from what he was saying it kind of sounded like yes, wackadoo, and I never really liked him in the first place. Yeah, have you seen Empire?
Speaker 1I saw Empire yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, what did you think of that?
Speaker 1I thought it was good. Yeah, you know, I didn't even like follow at the ending because I watched it in jail. So that's the only place.
Speaker 2Yeah, you only get to see what they give you.
Speaker 1Yeah, exactly. So it's over with that, you just only have one chance, but he's a good actor. He's a good actor.
Speaker 2He's a very good actor, and that's what people are trying to say. Is that acting Because you saw?
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Did that look like that was acting to you, bro, when he was going through the numbers? It's not acting, that's just his knowledge he told people to pull out their calculators and do like the square root of two and then then divide it by something, and he was giving the exact numbers down to the decimal point Exactly.
Speaker 1He knew what number it was going to be.
Speaker 2That scared me. Yeah, that's something. That's not unless he rehearsed like a motherfucker to do that he's an alien.
Speaker 2My mom will love that. You said that. Yeah, she will love that. You said that. And I'm about to post that fucking Mother's Day episode. I tell everyone meet her. We did a Mother's Day episode. I haven't been able to post it because we've been doing family stuff. I have the audio up, but the video will be up probably around the same time that we post this and we might do a little on shoot a longation shoot. But yeah, that was a little interesting and then we got the little AI shit going on and he kept going.
Speaker 1Oh, I know.
Speaker 2Yeah, I know, the thing is I'm going to get destroyed for this. Probably, kevin, but when he says one times one, yeah, one times one Equals what.
Speaker 1One times one Equals one Equals one.
Speaker 2Yeah, according to our math. Okay one, yeah, according to our math, okay, but our math represents something physical or a property or something. You know. You can't have something two of something like one and one is you're having two, two things being put together, yeah, but but yet being taken away, yeah. So he says where is that?
Speaker 1other one. Well, what about a zero times one?
Speaker 2That's what he's saying and that makes zero. He goes. So imagine, so it sounds crazy when you're like well, that's how we were taught math.
Speaker 1You have nothing, and then times one, you just got something, so it has to be one, right? Yeah? What happens like zero times zero? Of course it's going to be nothing now. Zero times one hey, it's a one, right there bam but you're taking away my one and now.
Speaker 2So everyone's like that's takeaway. Exactly what the heck's going on what was it again subtraction?
Speaker 2and the thing is when he says it, what was it again Subtraction? Yeah, damn dude. And the thing is when he says it, it makes sense, because he says you can't destroy. You know, energy cannot be created or destroyed. Right, it's created or destroyed. I'm a little out of it right now, but what he was trying to say right, it's created and destroyed. A bunch of I don't know what he was trying to say. Really, people don't get like the banks. Use that mathematical system.
Speaker 1Yeah, they said like dimes are really like a dollar.
Speaker 2Who do you think is using that? Who do you think is using that system? The accountants? I'm saying the accountants, so all of that shit that he's saying. We're getting screwed with it because one times one is fucking one.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, it's fucked.
Speaker 2Just like we were taught that the pyramids were fucking made for what it was supposed to be tombs, they all everywhere. Yeah, they said tombs. That's what it is. Yep, sarcophagus, sarcophagus, sarcophaguses, sarcophagus, sarcophagus.
Speaker 1What the heck is going on Sarcophagus.
Speaker 2Sarcophagus, sarcophagus, the sarcophagus is. That's it.
Speaker 1Well, that's what they said.
Speaker 2It's so ingrained in our brain that even my mom she will battle me to this day that the pyramids were made. They haven't found one body there yet. It's not true and they're all. If you look if I'm not trying to get the conspiracy theory and shit right now, okay you look all over the world you find that the pyramids are placed in certain spots that make mathematical sense, like or like logistical sense yeah because they're in a certain spot in every one of these places.
Speaker 2And how are they built? The same exact way? And before they had wow, before they had transportation, before they had, uh, technology that can transfer, like that could take information and send it millions and millions of miles away, yeah, if they didn't have that technology, how are they all building the same shit?
Speaker 1all the time.
Speaker 2Yep, you see and we said what did I say outside? That was fucking crazy. That blew my mind. We were talking about. I said that is so true and okay, yeah, we were talking. Okay. So there's another. There's just two more things that I wanted to talk to you about today, right, yeah, so we had that and we also went into cause me and you are struggling right now at work.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's hard out there. It definitely is.
Speaker 2So we are, I can't like physically work.
Speaker 1Oh, you can't. Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2So and like, in a way, right now you can't cause you don't have transportation.
Speaker 1You don't know, I have transportation. No excuse to that, it's just that I apply and no one's talked to me, no one's to, so I just got to keep trying different places.
Speaker 2Kev. You got to use fucking, that's it. You got to use what is it called? The black thing. Like you're black, so you got the what's it called.
Speaker 1I'm black because.
Speaker 2So you got to use affirmative action.
Speaker 1Like a soldier.
Speaker 2Affirmative action. No dude, it's like.
Speaker 1Oh, I see. Okay, so I go into places, but give me a fucking job right now.
Speaker 2Yo, I'm just right. Ethnicity black. All the time, ethnicity black.
Speaker 1Is that a real thing? I swear to God yeah.
Speaker 2Bro, what do you mean? They used to have us segregated from bathroom you black and white bathrooms.
Speaker 1Like come on.
Speaker 2It's not like that right now. I know that's what I'm saying, but that law was put in place and is still in place today.
Speaker 1I believe it.
Speaker 2We were talking about it last week. There's a guy or woman, or both of them, in the same body trying to make sure that there is equal rights for every movie, that your race is in every movie. That your braces in every movie. Yeah, it's no white, I'll let you. So there's this thing now where AI is really getting crazy. Well, we're about to show it in your episodes. We're about to do some. Do some talking about it, and it's going to be interesting. It's going to be interesting, because Terminator really can I tell them.
Speaker 1I haven't seen the Terminator and I haven't seen the Matrix.
Speaker 2There's a bunch of shit that I have to show Kev. Okay guys, there's a bunch of stuff that I have to show kev. Okay guys, there's a bunch of stuff that I have to show kev because he needs to experience this and he's already on the same pages, like the matrix, without even knowing the movie the movie, which is crazy.
Speaker 2So once you see it, it's gonna even like open your eyes more, just like real life, like what's going on. Yeah, and so with AI, they now have ChatGPT 4.0, which is free, okay, but you don't get as much. You can't get as much information out Right right Only a certain.
Speaker 2you get limited access to this right, my TV is fucking bugging out right now. I want to make sure it gets shut off. All right, yeah, baby Shut. That. That's what. That is right there. We had a nice little you'll see. On the Mother's Day one. We had that cool little back that was pretty cool. Yeah, it was cool. Yeah, so the thing is too that I was going through yesterday is that have you well, you have an older iPhone, but have you used Google lately, like search something?
Speaker 1I mean yeah, google's Google.
Speaker 2Yeah, but I'm saying, when you use Google now, do you get an AI pop-up, like it will tell you meta and then it will give you an answer without you having to go to a website? No, I mean, if I did? I don't think you have the new operating system? No, because you know how they opt out of generations.
Speaker 1Remember when I said 1941? Yeah, 1941.
Speaker 2Kev is from what? Kev 1941. 1941. Yes, Because Kev could live his life without anything.
Speaker 1I don't need no electricity, no light, he don't need no. What, yeah, just call me Indian.
Speaker 2There we go, living on the reso, but even on the reso they got shit, Kev. Yeah, yeah, Even on the reso they got shit.
Speaker 1Yeah, I mean back then when they had nothing. Yeah, I mean back then when they didn't have nothing. Yeah, you know, I wouldn't mind going outside and just Fucking what.
Speaker 2I know I love it. It's 11 o'clock. It beeps all the time. Now you got me scared. Now it's 11.
Speaker 1I'm like oh fuck, it's okay, Don't. I can be outside and just catch fish on the beach you could and then make a fire and just sit there. You know, other people are like that's weird. Why would you do that? That's something to do Because you're catching fish Fucking KDG and you're hungry. You're going to eat the motherfucker, you know.
Speaker 2Because I'm KDG.
Speaker 1Because I'm KDG, my own theme song too.
Speaker 2Oh, we're doing it, we got it. I told you we're Cloud with D upside down. We're going to do something with him. We definitely got to start doing something with you in these songs, because Kev's voice everybody is like baritone's got. I'm telling you I'm listening to a black guy sing frank sinatra yeah, I love it you can't beat it. Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1Can't beat it. I thank my grandpa for that. And did you know that? Uh, I'm gonna tell you. I'll tell you later. No, you can't do that. I can't do it because I can't remember. Oh, okay, I thought you got scared. No, I didn't get scared, I got scared. Say some bullshit. You know, the ant is just a little.
Speaker 2Okay, I appreciate it, I respect that, but now, since I was trying to say because you don't have the updated version of the Apple shit or Google or whatever, yeah, I mean, it's just so. It has an AI, so no longer do you need to browse websites to get the answer, it takes bits and pieces from each of these websites, okay, and will give you its own answer and its own, like it will take everything and give you the best form of all of it.
Speaker 1Oh, wow, yeah, you get what I mean. Yeah, yeah, tells you everything that you need what I mean.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah tells you everything that you need. So the thing is now, I didn't notice this until I'm watching that video yesterday about someone saying it right, right, right, and I work on our website, maybe once or twice a week. I update it, okay. So there's this thing called SEO and it's about how optimized you can make your website. All this fucking bullshit, yeah, and I've noticed. When we first started, we were like 85, 86 percentile of the websites right, right, which is really good yeah right, which is really good.
Speaker 2Yeah, and I I noticed about, I checked like maybe like two months ago when this all started happening and what do you know? Nothing like it was down to like 42 maybe. Yeah, it's like, get the fuck out of here, what's going on. So now I there's a trick. You know, you gotta update it more, right? You gotta put more content on it so that there is more chances of words hitting each other, yep, um and combining, and you gotta hope that these people don't want to click on or listen to.
Speaker 2AI, because that's how it is right now. You know that and it's gonna get more crazy and crazy. That's what I'm saying. So there's no way we're stopping it, guys.
Speaker 1No there's no way that's possible. It's not being stopped.
Speaker 2No, so you can either say, alright, fuck it, I'm to learn everything I can about it so that, god forbid if it does something happen, I know as much as possible to do what I need to do in order for it.
Government Surveillance and AI Technology
Speaker 1I want to tell you about AI. So what AI is is back then. I don't know when it started maybe 2018, but a lot of people were saying that, oh my God, the government can hear us on the phones. We don't even have to like series there and we don't have to touch nothing. People can hear us. You know, even with the TVs they have things in the TVs where people can hear us and all that. You can even get like a speaker like that and they can have something in there and they can hear us. Now another thing now a lot of people are like oh my God, ai, this is crazy, we can't get rid of it, we have it already. We're just, they're just, they're just letting it out. Now they're trying to. They're trying to like hide it, but now we're catching on. So, but now we're catching on. So they're just like, let's, let's just call the ai, let's just tell them.
Speaker 2But this is let's make it.
Speaker 1Let's make it easier we're calling the ai again.
Speaker 2Let's make it easier to sneak on people while they're enjoying dinner or watching a movie or you know, I don't know, I don't know if you you know this, um, but there was a thing a while ago and this dude had to fucking leave. He had to go somewhere else because he was working for the government and during the Facebook thing, facebook was just coming out, all that shit.
Speaker 2So, he was looking at how they were gathering their information and the intel and they were telling him to do things that were obviously blatantly against the rules. Right, of course it's a breach of security.
Speaker 1Yeah, and trust from your own government. That's a huge thing. Yeah, you're fucked. So goodbye.
Speaker 2He's like, I think I. I even think the term whistleblower comes from him. I'm not sure. Yeah, it might have been before, that that might be an old word, but I know but that he was basically a whistleblower right for the biggest thing there for the government. They were after yeah.
Speaker 2So he was afraid to talk to people and did this thing and he said, yeah, that we have access to kev, there are things all right. So I so there is no such thing as sound, we as I don't know, if you don't know that it's vibration. Vibration causes us exactly our eardrums to pick it up.
Speaker 1It forms the freak it picks up frequencies, mic and all that. That's how I'm talking in the mic.
Speaker 2It's called yes it takes in, it takes the vibration, it turns its frequencies our ears pick it up and we understand it. Yeah, so way. What was I saying?
Speaker 1By the voice of vibrations, whatever that is.
Speaker 2About the sound. Oh yeah, so now they have. So the government has such intelligent shit, right yeah, that they use their satellites.
Speaker 1Okay, Right To talk right.
Speaker 2No, these are satellites and they can zoom in as far as they can and use the speakers in your house to send out a reverse like signal yeah and catch like you use it as sonar.
Speaker 1Yeah, you see, it's almost like.
Speaker 2They can find out how many people are in the house, on what floor, the heat or or heat signatures they could do it with. You know, sat, that people stand from mile, like a mile away, and could put the sound, do the sound thing, yeah, and like point it towards something. Yep, it's ridiculous. It really is Absolutely.
Speaker 1Insane.
Speaker 2Ridic. It's ridiculous. Now dude, it really is absolutely ridiculous. The technology that is.
Speaker 1It's probably someone that has a TV and they can just. Okay, I'm going to go to just Waldo's house and see what they're doing.
Speaker 2Absolutely creepy you gotta understand, though. So what I was saying outside was that for YouTube, right, yeah, what jobs were there like this? What jobs were there like this?
Speaker 1yeah, remember before youtube.
Speaker 2Yeah, like that's what I'm saying before do you know how many jobs youtube's created? Yeah I don't know if I was just being stupid right now.
Speaker 1No think about before we had our phones.
Speaker 2That's what I'm. So in industry, you guys are scared that AI is going to take over some people's jobs. Yes, I understand that it's definitely going to take over some people's jobs 100% but there are going to be other jobs that are needed and replace it You're going to work at home, or something like that.
Speaker 1It's going to be different. It's not going to be other jobs that are needed and replace it. You're going to work at home, or something like that. It's going to be different. It's not going to be like your normal job.
Speaker 2There's going to be something You're going to have a supervisor that's watching over the AI. You're going to have someone that's going to need to be updating that all the time.
Speaker 1It's going to be one person in a restaurant and AI is going to have everything else.
Speaker 2Until the AI is able to fix itself, pull itself, but it's still. We're going to be the ones that there's going to be other jobs created around it. Maybe they do go crazy, all right, so then they make another police force.
Speaker 1That's just dedicated to For the army.
Speaker 2Fucking these motherfucking robots.
Speaker 1They should. They should make robots for the army. So everybody motherfucking robots, they should. They should make robots for the army. So everybody doesn't fuck with us. They already have, they haven't? They're trying to, anyway they should. They're doing it normally for everybody else they're making sex robots I'm having sex with them. They're killing robots. Well, yo oh no.
Speaker 2Sex robots are crazy.
Speaker 1What movie is that I? Oh, no, Sex robots are crazy, Kevin. What movie is that I Am Robot? Right With Will Smith.
Speaker 2Wait, there is a movie called I Am Robot. Yeah, with Will Smith, is it?
Speaker 1With the robots that that go nuts yeah, that go nuts and Will Smith's trying to kill them.
Speaker 2Yes, it's not going to be like that, but it's going to be like you haven't even seen terminator, so I can't even really say about like, if it's going to be way different, though I saw some clips.
Speaker 1It's, that's a badass. That's just one.
Childhood Memories and Near Disasters
Speaker 2It's it's basically that the machines took over all that. But we were able to, I think, build or get one on our side or build something that we had. And then there was time travel. So we sent the, the badass robot which was Arnold Schwarzenegger, back to the badass. It's gonna be a good movie. And he just comes out and Nate for the first season, like him naked, walking towards like a biker's thing, and he just walks up to a biker and takes his like I don't remember exactly how, but he winds up with the biker's clothes on.
Speaker 1Oh, that's awesome. Okay, arnold, yeah, come on, arnold the bodybuilder.
Speaker 2My fucking. I know he's crazy now, but like you gotta remember like you're 1940, what are you? What are you? Again, kev, I'm 1941.
Speaker 1Wait, what are you again, kev? I'm 1941.
Speaker 21941. 1941. I am 1998. Okay, definitely 1998. You know Going 98. Okay, definitely 1998.
Speaker 1You know yeah, okay, so what do you like? What are you happy about 1998, you said yeah, so do you have phones right, or electricity or no?
Speaker 2We just had no. The cool thing, you know what I like about 1998, is that there was a lot of people going to each other's houses. You know you didn't have much of a. I remember my mom or parents. They would always have something ready just in case someone stopped by. Because the phone was like a new thing, our door was. I went down the street to play with someone. I didn't call up my best friend to hang out, I just went to his house and knocked on the door and asked his mom.
Speaker 2I was like, could you wake up to play please?
Speaker 1Yeah, play, hide and go, seek, be in the backyard and all that, kick the can, kick the can, kick the can. Yes, kick the motherfucking can.
Speaker 2Kev.
Speaker 1I can still play that. My feet are ready, I can run. I want to fucking kick the can you should?
Speaker 2I want to see how that's canned, Because the can added is a little you know.
Speaker 1It's a. Can you put locks in it?
Speaker 2That's it. It's a fantastic game. I mean it's Manhunt with a can.
Speaker 1Yeah, freaking awesome.
Speaker 2Throw a little fucking marijuana in there, yeah back then I didn't smoke. I know.
Speaker 1I'll be fast. I'll be like how do you run so fast?
Speaker 2When was the first time you ever smoked, Ken?
Speaker 1I always think of this Middle school.
Speaker 2So what grade?
Speaker 1I don't even remember. Actually I would just follow people.
Speaker 2What grade was it, he would just follow people?
Speaker 1Yeah, he would just follow people. What grade was it? He would just follow people, yeah, he would just follow people. Go to work, you know. Be like hey, kevin, you want marijuana After work. Be like, okay, I was supposed to be on the bus and I would just walk home. Where's my son, you know, wait, you had a son. What son? No, I'm just saying my mom would be saying, oh, where's your son he's oh, ladies and gentlemen, where's your son? He's unbelievable so fucking funny dude the first time it got high.
Speaker 1Yeah, one of the boys gave me some weed one of the boys meaning.
Speaker 2I'm not gonna say his name no, I'm saying like one of the boys, meaning like one of your friends.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, okay, that's what I was saying. I wasn't saying no.
Speaker 2Give me Jeffrey's name.
Speaker 1But we were by the woods. I think he smoked in the woods and then we were walking out and he forgot his book bag. I was high as hell. So he's like, can you go in there and get my book bag? I'm like you guys are going to leave me. I know it already, panicking. He's like no, just go in there, I promise we won't leave you. You're going to leave me. So I go in there. I'm like okay, and I get it and I come back. It's still there. And then we go to a oh, they was still there. I was like shit, okay, walking. And then by my house there's like a place with a bunch of corn.
Speaker 1Wait the house that you're in now. Well, yeah, the house that I'm in now, there was corn. There's like a corn. It's, I would say, two miles away, it's like a cornfield. Okay, they're just smoking cigarettes and stuff. And I have a lighter and I take the piece of coin. It's like, oh, light it. I'm like, okay, oh, you say, yeah, you lit that shit up. Oh, man, I lit that shit up. Talk about fire, man, I threw it. Wait, how old? So how old are you? Like 13?, 13, 14, yeah. And then when I turned around, everybody's running I'm just like, hmm, what should I do? And they picked you up what they picked you up. No, I was just standing there, helicopters dumping water under fire.
Speaker 2What did the cops do? Did they grab you?
Speaker 1The cops weren't even there yet. It was the helicopter. The helicopter got there before the cops. Yeah, because this thing was engulfed, there was houses nearby and shit, bro oh that's bad. When everything was done, I saw dead rabbits, dead deer bro. It was bad. You see what I'm saying? Yeah, so I walk home when they're dumping wood on their fire and I don't know how I got home without even being stopped.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's crazy. They didn't look, I guess because, you know, on hot days sometimes it just lights up, yeah.
Speaker 1Especially if it's dry. Oh yeah, so I got scared. That's why I threw it. I was like happy birthday, you know, I was like fuck. But when I got home my mom's like hey, so was that you? I was like what are you talking about? It was all over the news Like fuck, are you serious? Yeah, and she's like that was you, kevin. I think you're good, she knew it.
Speaker 2I think you're good that, because there's only like a five-year statute, right right. You're good, they can't do anything.
Speaker 1So we went to the police station.
Speaker 2Oh, you're already. Never mind, you're good. Went to the police station. You already went to the police station, Went to the police station.
Speaker 1They're like okay, kevin, did you do it? I was like what happened, kevin? I was like, well, I lit a cigarette and then the match that I lit the cigarette with I dropped it and then everything went into flames. And they're like my mom's like are you sure, kevin, are you sure? And then the freaking detective's like okay, I'm going to give you one more chance to tell me the truth. If you don't tell me the truth, then I'm going to give you a lie detector and then that means you're going to be locked up.
Speaker 2So I was like oh yeah, I did it, man, I took it in my hand, I lit it up and I threw it.
Speaker 1I was going crazy, though I was telling my mom. I was like, see, I knew it. I was like, yeah, it was bad. And then I saw the helicopter dumping. I was acting stupid. I was like dumping water on the fire, oh my God. And then it was going out. And then I walked away and went home.
Speaker 2So you played it off.
Speaker 1I was bad back then.
Speaker 2But they were like this kid is.
Speaker 1Yeah, so they gave me house arrest. They did. Yeah, I was under house arrest. Oh shit, I didn't know it was kept, but it was only two weeks. I love money. I was lucky as fuck, man. That is very, very lucky. Yeah, that is very lucky.
Speaker 2I was grounded for two weeks, that is very lucky Because remember we were talking about how I get mad when people say that money doesn't buy happiness.
Speaker 1Because it does not buy happiness.
Speaker 2It buys the security Well, security, yeah and the comfort for you to be able to find a way to get your happiness, of course, without having to struggle.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Because the struggle is really what most people are having a hard time with.
Speaker 1That's why a lot of people are drinking. Like me, I was an alcoholic back then and it's really bad because, with me, I was born with alcohol syndrome.
Speaker 2Okay, I understand, yeah, explain what that is to everybody.
Speaker 1So my blood mom, wherever she is. She used to drink with me in my belly and when she had me she pushed me out and the doctor said I smelled like pure alcohol. Are you serious? Alcohol that came out of her body instead of the liquids of her body.
Speaker 2Oh my God Kev.
Speaker 1So I was an incubator and then I was good enough so I could be adopted, and there was like one mom that wanted to take me home and she took me home and she couldn't take care of me because I had three holes in my heart too.
Speaker 2Wait. So what, oh my God, I?
Speaker 1had three holes in my heart, but they cleared up. Yeah, you're good now. Well, yeah, I'm good now. But that I'm saying like the heart-wise yeah, they cleared up, I don't have holes in my heart.
Speaker 2I didn't know that hearts can clear up holes and shit.
Speaker 1Yeah, well, if you wave stuff you know, I guess so.
Speaker 2But you remember you were flying before. Why can't you have a fucking Kev's got a super heart, I'm not that nice. No, you do have a good heart, you have a good soul.
Speaker 1A lot of people have rougher lives than me. No matter if you wake up and you're upset about something, there's someone that doesn't have a roof over their head. You got to think of that.
Speaker 2That's an absolutely amazing way to look at things, because it's very hard. It's hard to do that, man.
Speaker 1It is hard to do that.
Speaker 2And I do know that you actually do do that. You practice what you preach. Others don't really, and so I really really do respect that you do that, because it's hard man, it's hard to. I believe that that's what happiness is is following the code that you set for others, like what you expect others to do and behave, even if you're not doing them right, and you want those people to do them right?
Speaker 1Yes, get you.
Speaker 2But what it ultimately comes down to is like you can't control other people you can't control other people.
Speaker 2You only can control yourself. That's right. So are you living by the codes that would make you that if you were someone else and you looked at you, yeah, would you be friends with that person? Would you be like I want to be like that person, that's how it really is. And like when you, when I want, and every time I'm happy, it's when I have people that are that I'm helping and that understand that, tell me yep, like wow, I'm I, I, I I'm so proud of you, man, I gotta get to your level.
Speaker 1You stopped doing this, you're good.
Speaker 2I'm proud of you. That's when you know you're doing something good.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2And then you start receiving shit.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2We talked about that. You start receiving gifts left and right from the universe.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Start receiving gifts left and right from the universe just for doing the right thing when no one's looking.
Speaker 1And I want to get back to the story too. We went through three moms that tried to bring me home and help me out. I had to be in an incubator. They had to just like a regular hospital. They had to do it at the house, though. So my mom that I have right now. Why is that? Though, they couldn't, it was just too much too. It's a lot like I had three holes in my heart. Um, I had trouble breathing. I had to be on a breathing machine. You know, uh, when I grew up my legs, I had metal things on my legs that I couldn't. You know, my brother used to throw me down the stairs. You were Forrest Gump, I guess. So the metal, yeah.
Speaker 2The metal things. Yeah, Did you run and break them Kev.
Speaker 1Well, I used to run, but it was pretty difficult running, I know. So say, did you run, kev run? I won't forget that day when I got them off and I could stand. It was painful, yeah, but then the next day I was like shit, I can walk.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, god fucking bless you. And that's all from the alcohol syndrome, that's all from the and my mom my mom's the one that my mom and dad is the one that saved my life. I would say my mom and dad is the one that saved my life. I would say they definitely did save my life.
Speaker 2Who knows I could have been. They were the third set of parents that tried. Yeah, and it worked.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2God bless them.
Speaker 1And I was an alcoholic when I grew up. I was like age 14 and stuff middle school I used to drink all the time. Did you drink in school? No, okay, okay, when I was in senior year, high school, then that's when I started drinking a little bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but just a blessing man, you know. Just, life is very fragile, so careful what steps you make.
Speaker 2So fucking fragile yeah man, no, even words can't be taken back. Yeah words can, can, uh, can't be taken back. Yeah, so there's a lot of things I I uh regret saying you know and I regret doing yeah, but we learn from our lessons.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's the that, that is the thing we have to learn from our lessons and I could see that you truly represent gratefulness because grateful to be alive, grateful to have friends and family. Definitely friends, because, family, I love you, but I need friends in my life too no, that is.
Speaker 2We talk about this all the time. Man there is just it's so hard like no guys have like real solid friendships.
Speaker 1No, like you want a solid friendship where you can go and just I don't know like American Got Talent, american Idol, and just have a friend by your side to be like phew bam.
Speaker 2That just would call you and ask you you like how and what, and, and the one who's would watch, that american like, like did watch you, yeah, and you know that they're the ones cheering you on. Damn like, I got my boy at home is thinking about me, even though he's got xyz going on. Exactly, so I, that's like that's the greatest thing. And then, because it really goes down to who are the ones that are going to be at, your funeral and, like you said too, is money.
Speaker 1Money is, uh, when you get a lot of money and you have a good friend, some people just don't want to be that person's friend because they're like lower class now they're rich now you know. So they can't. They change. Yeah, they change everything, and I see that with people with money. They just they act better than you. They don't check up on you. You know they just they got everything that you want and they don't care, they just get selfish. You know they just they got everything that you want and they don't care, they just get selfish you know, until they what?
Speaker 2Yeah, until they need some more.
Speaker 1I'm not a jacket that you're going to just put on and you know. No, If you really want to be my friend or you want to be a part of my life, then that's it. Let's go Period. That's it, Period. Yeah.
Speaker 2That's my life, then that's it. Let's go period, that's it. Period, yeah, that's that it's you want, and I never understood this until getting out of jail getting out of jail, jail but yeah, I never understood it's still getting up jail that who you surround yourself is who you technically become as a human being not necessarily every part of that person, but the major qualities that attract you to be his friend or her friend. I had mad friends in jail too. You start absorbing some of their qualities, especially if you're an empath or empathetic, and you pick up on emotions.
Speaker 1You got to understand them because you can't just say yeah and be like oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Then they're going to bring it up and be like what, what is he complaining about?
Speaker 2Exactly, and they don't know anything. Yeah yeah, it's a hard pill to swallow sometimes.
Speaker 1That's why a lot of people don't trust each other and I was like, oh, I just got a friend, but I don't know if he's really my friend.
Speaker 2And imagine having a shit ton of money and having to think about that with everybody. Yeah, that was something that I was naive at the time, right.
Speaker 1You know, growing up, because I did have money, I never thought of it like that, right, and I'm sure there was tons of people that, just If I was rich, I would just walk down the street and see the first person walking and just take $50,000 and just hand it to them. I know you would, or I would do rock paper scissors, I know you would yeah, make it fun.
Speaker 2I would never. I couldn't do rock paper scissors, but that person would go home and they would fucking kill themselves. Well, you know, bro, I think I lost a fucking rock paper scissors.
Speaker 1No, because I would be like you would have gave it to him too. Yeah, I would. And then, oh, okay, okay, but still 40 that you lost out on 40, yeah, it's a big lose it is.
Speaker 2I want to told him, bro, well, maybe I did, I won't have to actually no, but see that I wish I could do that for one time, like you know one time in my life and not those times where I had the money.
Speaker 2It was. I was so selfish and I did those things with them. I could have done a lot of uh, I could have done a lot of good. I did a lot of bad man. Yeah, I'm not bad. I did a lot of bad things to myself, right selfish, you know. I wish I could just be wrong.
Speaker 1I'm trying to change it.
Speaker 2You know things have got it, things have got to change. So well, you are changing it. I'm trying to change it. You know things have got to, things have got to change.
Speaker 1Well, you are changing it. I'm trying to, man, I'm really, I'm really trying. That was a while ago, if you think about it.
Speaker 2So I'm not even talking about that. I'm just talking about daily shit going on. Now, okay, still goes. I mean, it's just, I'm not the nicest person to deal with when I'm in pain.
Speaker 1You know, I'm the opposite though. I'm the nicest person to deal with when I'm in pain. Yeah, but I need to stop being an asshole A nice asshole Wait, wait, wait, yeah, so wait you're the nicest person.
Speaker 2Be quiet, shut up, okay. You're the nicest person when you're in pain. Yeah.
Speaker 1But you're an asshole. When I'm in pain, I'm still nice to other people and I care about other people.
Speaker 2Oh, I know that. Of course me too. But I'm saying like if I wake up right and I'm in, like I'm not there yet I can tell I'm in a I don't want to talk to anyone. Don't want to talk to anyone. It's so much pain that I don't want to like I gotta put a leave in me or something that's me. Yep, and I try to distance myself from people when I get like that but when they come to you and when it's automatic and you don't mean to do it.
Life's Challenges and Anecdotes
Speaker 2yeah, it's just never understood right and you try to explain it. I try to do it beforehand. I've done it a couple times. I've tried to do it see if it works. Yeah, it doesn't work. Oh, okay, I've tried. I've tried being like guys just want you to know I'm in a horrible. I'm in a horrible mood right now. I can't. I just leave me at peace for like a day. I don't want to yell at anybody. I don't want to get in their fights, because that's what I know is going to happen, right, right.
Speaker 1Please just let me be, that's good, just have your coffee. Wake up. Still doesn't work, dude. I had some moments where I wake up and one of my nephews will come in the door while I'm trying to sleep and then one little thing, he'll touch me small or he'll make a certain noise, and I'll just get up like the Grinch and be like god damn it. Break my door off, walk downstairs. I can't stand this see this baby and then just walk out the door. I'm like where the fuck am I going?
Speaker 2I just woke up everybody has that trigger and it's like, when I have it, I can't, I don't know. I feel like I'm an asshole.
Speaker 1Oh, I'm a big asshole, I'm a hole you understand it.

Speaker 2You know, and we got a little special guest, special surprise couple this week, because last week was the Mother's Day and I mean I had the audio up. I apologize for the video. There was a couple of little snags. Internet is a bitch, you know, internet's a bitch and yeah, so oh, and also, don't buy digital products, because you can get fucked. Yeah, y'all.

Speaker 2Tell them you don't own it.
Speaker 1If you do, I'm sorry, but I do too.
Speaker 2I do too, but I learned this week you don't do it. Yeah, because if anything God forbid happens to your account or like say you like question a purchase or anything, oh, wow. You shut down your whole fucking system.
Speaker 1What the heck, what the fuck? I need my account. No, fuck that. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2Bro. Nope, I was about to play some video games. Sit down and chill Kev. That's insane. I pull it up and it says permanently suspended.
Speaker 1I was like why I need my games, why, what the heck?
Speaker 2But then I said okay, but what about the games they're like? Oh, a charge didn't go through for these two games, whatever I was like. Okay, then what about the games that?
Speaker 1they didn't pay for, so you pay for that one, and then they're going to do it again, and now you have to pay for these games, because they wouldn't even let you pay, like through debit card.
Speaker 2You had to pay through a sony. You gotta buy a sony gift card for x amount of dollars or buy multiple of them up to five and use them for your payment.
Speaker 1So it was like you can't even use your debit card.
Speaker 2No, you got to use your debit card to buy the Sony gift cards. Use the Sony gift cards to go on the website and buy and buy the.
Speaker 1Yeah, what the heck is wrong with this world?
Speaker 2Ridiculous, ridiculous. And then three to seven business days to get your account back.
Speaker 1That's beautiful. So I'm going to go into Wawa and I can't get gas because I have to go get a cheeseburger first, and then the gas will work when I put my card in. And then, boy, I'll get a little bit of gas and I'll have to put my card in again. That's a pain in the ass. That's like how life is.
Speaker 2Oh, you made an analogy. Yeah, oh, good one. Yeah, right, you like that. That's what that was. I was like wait, we're getting gas Exactly Analogy.
Speaker 1I'm already here for gas, but I have to get a cheeseburger to get the gas. Yeah Well, you can't use that gas station. That's messed up.
Speaker 2Bro McDonald's using the fucking machine, right and you're ordering their thing and it says, oh, would you like to?
Speaker 1tip. Who am I tipping? Well, you can't have no food if you don't tip, then but who am I tipping? It's the machine. Yeah, yeah, what was it? What place did that smash? I don't know. Some place did that shit to me Like, oh, tip, I'm just like I'm not giving no tip through a machine. This is thinking McDonald's.
Speaker 2And I look back and there's like one guy looking at things yeah, yeah, how it's going to be soon. Yeah, they wanted to make a fucking car that could make pizza on the go as it was delivering it.
Speaker 1That's going to happen. It's going to be a car. Of course it's going to happen.
Speaker 2They have cars that have heaters, that shit, and they're going to amp it up and amp it up. Thank God we won't be here in this body, we'll be here in another one.
Speaker 1Think about this now. Think about the food trucks.
Speaker 2I'm thinking. What am I thinking about Food trucks?
Speaker 1Think about when you go to New York and you see the food trucks, right.
Speaker 2I'm thinking about the food trucks.
Speaker 1Now imagine going to New Jersey that you're in right now and seeing a McDonald's food truck or a White Castle food truck or a Wawa food truck or a Quick Check food truck.
Speaker 2Why are you making my mouth water? Okay, go ahead. I'm not saying the food, I'm just saying and now I've seen all these food trucks.
Speaker 1What are we going to do with the buildings? God damn, that's what they want.
Speaker 2Imagine that. Well, that's what's fucking up right now is the Airbnb, because they fucking bought up all the buildings.
Speaker 1Yep Corporations bought the buildings, and what are they making them out of? They're making.
Speaker 2They're renting them out for people to come vacation in or whatever.
Speaker 1They fucking yeah I don't know what the fuck. And you know what it is it's illegals. Think about how many illegals are coming in this world.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, yeah. So to make them spaces so they can just sit there and wait to attack whatever you think so I think so. There's some terrorist illegals and there's some stupid illegals that I'm sorry. Did I say that? Oh my gosh, what is wrong with me? Say that, oh my gosh, what is wrong with me? There's some silly illegals that don't know how to drive and don't have a license when they're driving and they can get away with anything, even if they call 911 or government. They get away with everything. But we have to do the hard work and we get in trouble All the time. I love it, it's so much fun All the time, yep, I, it's so much fun All the time, yep.
Speaker 2Yep, I had five felonies down down to three, because the four other ones were weed felonies Like you know what I mean.
Speaker 1Come on, when are they going to get rid of my robbery charge?
Speaker 2Come on, you can submit for it, can I, kev? There are so many things that I got now that I know about, like I mean, I know he's new about, like your disability, all that stuff. But there are so many things that you could have, because they're only giving you one day a week. You could, you know what I mean. You could do something where you know that you can get some type of help. I'm going to show you. I've told you I got you.
Speaker 1I got you I got you on that.
Speaker 2It's like this shit's fucking crazy. Yeah, it's been. I'm getting so used to the pain that it's like I'm going to have to just go out and fucking get a job. And make the shit worse Exactly, and because I tried at my cousin's I used to try and lift something to help clean up some stuff and I lifted a box. It was only full like little is full of the tiny waters you know what I'm saying. And both, both, usually it was my left arm, right Both biceps just felt like they were so tight and like something was like pinching. Yeah, I don't know what was going on. I was like yo, I don't know what was going on. I was like, yeah, I'm so sorry, I had to watch people help like clean up and shit. I felt so bad like I'm now going to a spinal surgeon to see like a spinal doctor right to read my fucking neck, mri, because you know all the shit that's going on. So hopefully that's eight months, dude, eight months.
Speaker 2The government is just taking their sweet-ass time and I don't understand why they do it, because they're stupid. The longer you keep shit running and you keep it going, the more money you're going to have to pay out at the end. If this all wins, if this all works out Like you could have just said, here's your disability, you know. Go get fixed and when you're ready to work, come back Now instead of having to go through all this. Then go to court. Yep, then what happens? I don't even care if nothing happens with me, I don't pay any money. If I lose, they do. They do so like I don't understand why they just didn't. I even asked them. Just let me apply for unemployment. You know what?
Speaker 1Unemployment is. I fucked that up too. It was so much.
Speaker 2Wait, what do you mean?
Speaker 1Unemployment. I got it like when everybody else got it, but Wait, no, no, no, okay.
Speaker 2When everyone else got, when COVID hit. Oh, so you're talking about your, uh, those things that we got, those stimulus checks.
Speaker 1Well, those two those are. Those are separate.
Speaker 2Oh, but you stopped working because of COVID. Okay, see, I was in jail. Oh, I had no idea. Oh, wow, I'm like wait, you got, everyone was. So everyone was laid off at this date. Oh my God.
Speaker 1So I got two. My check every week was $215 from unemployment Okay, but I didn't even know when all my money was ran out, found out that you can do like you can get what four weeks of your check, so you can get up to $1,000 a week or something like that.
Speaker 2I heard people were doing some yeah Like making a lot of Like shit.
Regrets and Revelations in Past Actions
Speaker 1Man, I could have done that and just put that on the side and then messed it all up. I was too nice. I was like, oh yeah, weed, I love smoking weed. Hey friend, you want some money? Oh man, you had it, you were getting it. I was getting it. I was partying man, I was doing stupid shit. Yeah, I love it. It's so stupid.

Speaker 2I had a drink. Right, you got a drink. Right, you had a drink. I had a fucking. I had to play video games.
Speaker 1Yeah, so you know what Everything's a life lesson, everything.
Speaker 2That's the truth, because if it happened when that time was going on, we might have been dead.
Speaker 1You know, if something happened where it was like, yeah, and that money was for that, to like save yourself and out having a stupid time, and at the time I was just trying to block myself from all the stress. But, damn man, that's why I was alcoholic in the past, because I couldn't handle being adopted, I guess, or whatever I was in pain or something.
Speaker 2People were making that much money. Damn it. I'm so pissed bro. They gave me two stimulus checks.
Speaker 1And it's $1,500, I think.
Speaker 2That's it. I got like a nine. I got a nine and then they took the rest.
Speaker 1I could have $10,000 in my account right now if I saved it. Are you kidding me? Yep, and I blew it all off every day.
Speaker 2I heard that everyone was getting like everyone that had a job or whatnot, even like Trump was giving it to everybody yeah, and it kept going when people started getting jobs.
Speaker 1Oh my God.
Speaker 2Now, some things are making a lot of sense from other things that I'm learning right now.
Speaker 1And now there's some people trying to do it, but it's impossible to do it because they know they'll use yeah, crazy.
Speaker 2I didn't know any of that. It's so crazy how people try to pull one over on you, yeah or try to act like this was like that, but it really was like this. Yeah, this was like that, but it really was like this. This is how this happened. Oh my God.
Speaker 1It's all a game. It's all like playing house, you know.

I'm going to tell you, because we're going to start this next episode off with it I like it which is going to be very soon yes, definitely, it might even be before this video drops, but we're going to end it on my face like this.
