Shannon's SICK of it! Literally

The views and opinions of the hosts and guests of this program are of their own and not a reflection of Milwaukee black media or 101 7 the truth Good afternoon Milwaukee.

You're tuned in to the lunch break on 101 7 the truth where everything is an option on the menu

and one thing about me I'm a tough cookie, but I know what I can't do and I'm not I'm not

Hoppa, who this man?

Yeah, I wasn't doing it.

So I was like, I'm not paying $1,000 to sleep on somebody couch.

Grab your lunch, hit send on that email, and get ready for the best hour of your day.

My way of thinking is that the parents do all they can.

But once the kids leave off that door, whatever have you, they make their own decisions.

I don't care if you 9 or 99.

It's still your decision about the situations that you get involved yourself in.

We talking about tax-paying citizens.

Look into their taxes.

Look into this.

We talking about elected officials doing backdoor deals and somehow she still want to blame immigrants.

That's what we talking about right now.

We following the money and you still want to blame black people and immigrants and welfare and all of these things for policies and backdoor deals that put poor people in worse position.

Live from the American Family Insurance Studio at the Third Street Market Hall.

Like you said, they want to pad their pockets, but they need a reason to push things through.

And I guess the low-hanging fruit is, OK, well, this is a problem, right?

Y'all want to fix the problem, and they just hope nobody looks into it like, wait, when did food truck

become an issue?

Who can we talk to about this?

Grand Lecturer.

That would be lit.

Who can we talk to, man?

We need to broadcast live from the American family insurance field.

That's what we want to do.

That would be nice.

That would be, you know, it would be super nice to read the American family insurance read from the American family insurance field.

That would just feel dope.

We'll feel dope.

But man, yes, the Brewers have one.

Shannon, the Brewers have one.

Yes, they have.

Man, 4-0.

Should we call DJ?

Hey, he text me, too.

You know how some people text first?

So it's like, so you don't really take a single way.

Yeah, man.

I let when we got swept, I let you text me.

You know, I didn't try to beat you to it.

He took a little

shine.

How dare he?

Hey, I ain't gonna lie, this was a terrible idea I did.

I thought, because I had the Thai latte, the Thai tea earlier.

So I thought if I got a cappuccino from the machine and then poured it over the ice, it would have been a nice, another like frozen drink, but that's not how that works, I guess.

What?

What?

It sounds like you came up with a random mix of things that don't.

No, no.

So I drank the tea first.

I drank the Thai tea first.

So I still had the cup with the ice in it.

So I went to the machine and got a French vanilla cappuccino.

And then I tried to pour that over the ice.

And I thought it would be delicious, but it's not.

So there's that.

But yes, y'all.

I thought it would be delicious.

I did.

I thought it was going to be nice.

But we swept them back, Shannon.

OK.

44 years.

44 years, Shannon.

The Milwaukee Brewers.

I'm not even 44.

I was, I wasn't even here yet.

The Milwaukee Brewers are going to the World Series.

Let's talk about that, man.

Last night in Los Angeles, Dodgers 4, Brewer 6, and it was the whole season in one game.

Second inning.

Andy singles in the run, then Otani, all 428 feet.

Why they got to read these stuff like him?

Why they got to, like, why would they make me read this like this then?

All 42, all 424.

I can't even read it though.

All 428 feet of him launches a three run homer.

Four zero dodgers.

Dodger Stadium is shaking and the Brewers did what we've done all October We kept our cool and we responded Shannon.

I know you's probably at work.

Did you get to catch any glimpses of the game?

I Didn't I didn't I got it like normally what I do is like sneak and watch what's going on social media

In

between the time that I have free I'd be like let me see cuz you know social media came the other day when they had hit that What was it a home run?

I saw a clip before everybody else.

Somebody was already making statuses.

I was like, dang.

I was there before.

What is that a homerun?

They did something.

Look,

they did something.

And I knew before everybody else because people really be on Facebook live updates right away.

So I lean on my Facebook friends and cousins to tell me what's going on.

And they do.

Oh, they do.

No, it was it was yet another amazing game man, so it was in the fourth inning Shannon to rang He gets a walk and back-to-back ground rule doubles It was crazy So we had to it was for the two then and in the fifth Bowers bases loaded walk tie the game

Mitchell with a go-ahead home run, Shannon.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

Brewer's been playing some really good ball all season.

And I'm gonna tell you what's been a little irritating to watch.

And it was something actually Amanda pointed out to me.

If you notice how, I'm not gonna say the journal said them, but all the national media, right?

If you notice how they title in it, it's like,

the Dodgers lost to the Brewers.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, what do you mean the Dodgers?

Like, no, we whooped the Dodgers butts.

All right?

PTA.

That's what

it was.

That's right.

And they framing it like, oh, we was just this super underdog.

Like, like, I could understand why people would think that, but we were the best team in baseball.

Damn, they're all year.

BTA all year.

I mean technically we were the underdog though.

From the salary and what you talking about the players and stuff like that.

No when it comes to the Dodgers.

Sure but I'm just going off of share record right.

Like we've been performing not like an underdog all year.

I'm saying like maybe if we was like

We just made the playoffs something we were struggling all year You know we fought our way back into like yes We are underdog city for sure small market.

You know what I'm saying?

We don't have nowhere near the amount of money that the Dodgers put into their staff what coach say They got a bunch of Hall of Famers.

We got a bunch of gamers.

So yes, I understand that story of feeling like but to me I always felt like we was

the team to beat.

And we just keep on persevering and keep on putting wins up.

So that's what I mean by the, like when they frame it, like, oh, the Brewers just like, no, the Brewers been winning all year.

And I just don't like when people don't give the small city the proper credit for like having a good team, having a good staff, having a great fan base that really helps carry.

these teams through these situations.

So that's what I mean by the underdog.

Yes, on paper, if you're looking at names and and so forth and what talent should be back to back championships from the Dodgers.

Sure.

Yes.

But I'm just more so going off of performance for this year coming into the season.

Absolutely.

But during the season, I think we show we've been showing and consistently showing that.

Amen.

We we just want this more but Yeah, man, it was uh, it was a great game Shannon and uh, y'all so y'all didn't catch them uh singing the Milwaukee blues right before they on pop the champagne No, but it was I was a dope site man.

It was a dope site 44 years 82

1982 I was I wasn't even born for like another two years.

I can't even What's what's what's significantly happened in 82 in American history that happened in 82?

I can't even tell you because I wasn't even here But yes, man the Dodgers the Dodgers actually were leading

At least from what I remember.

The history is because the kind of thing, excuse me, I got like a little sinus tripping real quick.

So the brewers trailed the Dodgers in basically every single game of the series and swept them for last October.

Maybe that's why this feels like my world series because last October, DJ Error was terrorizing me.

because the bucks got swept.

And if I'm not mistaken, I don't even think we put up four runs total.

No, I think we only put up four runs total in the series against them last year.

So it's just an amazing day, man.

Shouts out to the Brewers, man.

Milwaukee Brewers all the way.

World Series.

When is this next week?

Next weekend is when this jumping on?

Can't remember what the date was man, but don't go anywhere man when we come back We're gonna get into what's popping with Shannon right here on the award-winning one-on-one seven the truth

Pull up a chair the lunch break with the rayoniddy and maybe Shannon continues in just a moment on the award-winning one-on-one seven the truth You're listening to the lunch break with the rayoniddy and maybe Shannon where every discussion is on the menu on the award-winning one-on-one seven the truth

Now it's time to test it.

Now

it's time.

I'm gonna tap in to What's Poppin' with Maybe Shannon.

What's Poppin' with Maybe Shannon.

Live on a lunch break with Ray Nitty and Maybe Shannon.

Live on a lunch break with Ray Nitty and Maybe Shannon.

Hey Shannon, can you tell us what's poppin'?

What's

up what's up?

Milwaukee are listening to the award winning one on one seven the truth and we are at that 12 30 time where we're doing what's popping with Shannon and we talk about what's popping alright and right now we are going to talk about online dating you know I told y'all I had a few different things that I wanted to you know talk about but this one I felt like

We could really get into this one, all right?

So a story out of Minnesota has me wanting to ask y'all, how safe do you feel meeting someone online?

And how do you decide when you know enough about them to let them into your life?

So before we get into that, I want to talk about Kaylee Arsif.

Kaylee was a 22-year-old and according to her family, she met a man through a dating app within weeks.

He killed her.

His name was Jose Luis Lopez and on October 15th, he was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

Good.

He should have got stoned to death.

But

you

know, that's my rules, I guess.

That's

just me.

I'm the only person thinking like that, I guess.

But anyway.

So he was convicted of first degree premeditated murder.

And according to messages described in the criminal complaint, he wanted a romantic relationship.

And Kaylee told him she only wanted a friendship in June 2025.

Police found her shot to death inside of her Richfield apartment after she missed work.

The county attorney is calling this a rejection killer.

Now we got rejection killings.

Well, I think we've been had it, but we keep having to come up with names for the ways these people is losing their minds, okay?

So, basically, she refused a relationship and he refused to accept it.

He wanted more from her.

And if I'm not mistaken...

Her sister came out and said that they hadn't even met he ended up getting her information through other sites online Paying to find her address paying to get like her actual phone number and figure out her schedule and things of that nature I think they spoke online a little bit and She she realized something may be off and she told him hey, you know what?

Let's just be friends and I matched with him thinking you know

Dodge the bully but no he figured out where she was and Kilder sat unfortunately, right?

Kaylee loved music and art was restoring a motorcycle and worked with autistic children as a behavioral technician She had recently talked about pursuing a degree in developmental psychology She had a whole future ahead of her.

Okay.

She was she was obviously a good heart in

wanting to do good things in this world and it was cut short by this weird dude that just simply could not accept rejection and it's just it's scary because you think of like people like that are already dating already meeting up and stuff and then being upset but this man hadn't even met her in person from my understanding which makes it so much scarier especially with us living in the age where so many people meet people online so

People meet online every day and some build beautiful relationships.

Maybe a lot of people meet their spouses now.

I think it's more likely for people to meet their spouse online than it ever has been before.

And it's pretty normal at this point, right?

And even people, I mean, people get on.

Bumble and stuff like that to meet friends.

Like when you move to a different city or state, people meet friends online.

People join meetup groups.

So when you hear Kaylee's story, it just raises a real question on how you get to know somebody while also protecting yourself from what you don't know about them.

Because you can talk to somebody every day, you can text, you can FaceTime, and you can learn their favorite food and hear childhood stories and what they want out of life.

And it can feel like closeness, but how much have you actually have opportunity to observe?

Because it is important to see how somebody can handle disappointment.

See how people handle when plans change and what happens when you disagree with them, right?

And knowing someone's routine and knowing their character are very different things.

And I think that's the tricky part.

I think dating requires openness.

And if you're trying to make a connection,

you don't want every conversation to feel like an interrogation, right?

And I guess, where's the balance?

You know, how do you stay open to meeting other people without feeling pressured to trust them before you're ready?

So, those are, you know, people need to take certain precautions, but even in this story, like I said, she did everything right.

So even in those times, it's hard to tell like, what can you do to protect yourself?

Online what can you do to to kind of weed out the bad bad apples, right?

Because I want to be clear Kaylee's death was the responsibility of the man that killed her clearly.

He was on well clearly.

He was he was insane But she did nothing wrong, but it also becomes you know People online will you know like they do oh, she should have picked better

You know, well, this is what happens when you meet people online.

But like I mentioned before, it's more common than people want to believe that people meet people online, that people make connections online, that people even end up dating people that they've met online.

That's more of a common thing than anything.

I think I saw like a...

A graph where they like ask people where they met their boyfriend or girlfriend and most of it said online dating it's bigger than ever So it's one of those things where it's like you can meet people You know you can meet people at church or restaurant discover things about them later and Still end up in these unfortunate situations But I guess the question is how do you meet people and weed out the bad apples like when you got stuff like this happening?

Do you just not meet people online?

Like, do you take extra precautions?

I don't know.

Have you have you ever met a friend online?

Um, nah, you know, I'm 42, Shannon.

Online just started being a thing.

I mean, maybe back in the Pax days or like Black Planet days, but that was like teens, like still in high school, like.

Yeah, but technology was so much different back then and limited, right?

So You just didn't like my space you like had to be on a computer really to be to be on like we still had AOL you have to put a disk in and in here to dial up tone So, you know online You're faster me somebody going outside waiting to kick find a connection

So yeah, you know

So do you feel like online dating is safe?

Um That's a loaded question I me I Feel like it's a little bit risky Right.

I feel like it's a little bit risky, but that is from my lens right somebody who yeah, you know dating was much different

for our generation, we actually had to talk to each other.

We had to actually go out and hang out.

You know what I mean?

Courting was a little bit different.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, he feels like you could court with just liking a post every morning now or something.

Like, oh, he really loves me.

You know?

So I don't know.

I'm just saying it was a little bit different.

So.

I feel like, um, and I'm, I'm thankful to be a part of a generation who was able to witness both.

You know what I mean?

Like not too much technology.

So we did have more of those real human interactions and building, you know, uh, a relationship in real life versus hiding behind a keyboard.

You can be whoever you want to be.

just typing online.

You know what I'm saying?

You could put whatever picture you want up.

And the person that shows up ain't nothing like-

And put on whatever facade.

We see it all the time.

These people

have

these facades or do stuff online that don't translate well out in the world.

Like when you see these people being racist in the comment section and then you see real world.

Things when they think like bro, you thought you was in the comment section and now somebody didn't put hands on

Yeah, so I think I think it's different, but you have so many people that have met Love online, you know, and it worked for them my sister Let her pollock online.

You feel what I'm saying?

So really?

So It's

so normal to know and I think people is to

the point

where people don't even

Realize like because at first like when you hear stories like this like I don't do online and because it's weird But I've thought about like maybe I should because you hear like that's the way people meet now then I'm like

No, I'm

good.

I ain't trying to get kidnapped,

but

then I'm also like When you really think about it

The first friend that I met out here, it was on TikTok.

She's like, oh, you in Vegas, you should hang out, blah, blah, blah.

And for a while, we just chatted back and forth.

And I'm like, OK, she seemed like a cool person.

We can meet somewhere in public.

You know what I'm saying?

I treated it like I would a date, of course.

We can meet somewhere in public.

Watch her profile, make sure it's real, make sure it's normal, see if we got mutuals.

But it's like, that's not dating, but it's still the same risk.

You know, I don't know who, there should be a 58 year old bald big man that's just got a picture on there.

Like, yeah, meet me

at the

club.

Like, I don't

know.

That could

be anybody.

But you meet people online.

Like, even the other day, I made a post about like some of my accomplishments and stuff like that or some things that I've done.

And like, I got some DMs from people like, I'm like, dang, I didn't even realize.

This person been following me this long.

They're like, man, I've been following you since XYZ years ago and I'm so proud of you.

And I'm like, you know, I'm grateful for that support, but it's also like you don't realize how many people feel close to you.

You don't realize how many people are watching you.

You don't even realize like when I used to do makeup, people all the time, they find you online.

And they be like, I'm a little point because I saw your work online.

And then from there, you build relationships.

You don't know who's watching you.

You don't know who's supporting you.

We just got through what's popping with Shannon.

It was a very interesting conversation.

Shannon, you want to tell our listeners who was listening or anybody that's just joining us what the segment was about.

Yeah, so...

Recently, a young woman was murdered by a man that she had met online.

She basically had a conversation with him online.

They had some back and forth and she decided, you know what, maybe we shouldn't date, maybe we shouldn't go on a date.

And she cut it short and she said, maybe we should just be friends.

In what they call a rejection killing he found her address and went to her home and murdered her And then it just brought up the question of how do we?

Navigate online relationships, even if it's a friendship even if it's you know, just like somebody you're interested in getting to know While being safe and it also best the question like do you do you all feel safe?

dealing with people online.

I also, you know, brought to the table a lot of times, new friendships, new relationships, you meet people online these days.

That's just how it is, you know?

Even when you think of the people in our chat, our cousins, we met them online before we met them in person, you know what I'm saying?

So it's like, you really start to peel back them layers and be like, man, I have met a bunch of people online and it's so normal that you don't think

Oh, yeah online dating is unsafe online meeting people is unsafe Because it's so normal now and I guess I'm wondering like how do you protect yourself now?

How do you know people are safe?

Are there extra steps that people take before meeting people out in the wild?

Out in the wild

The world is

the world the world is wild man the world is wild but no, um

Yeah, I think I think you absolutely right because it's just normal now.

Right.

I just think this

is

this is what it is.

We're

in

a technology dominated world.

Everybody's on their phones.

Everybody's in their devices.

And I am interested to see 10 15 20 years from now, you know, I'll be 60 something.

You know I wonder what the value of human interaction would be like moving forward

Listen make sure y'all call in a 3 3 2 1 2 10 17 because that's a good question you just asked Do you think but honestly I feel like already right?

So many people are starting to feel lonely and it's starting to feel deprived of human interaction Even when they're on the computer and they feel like they're having all these interactions I feel like that face-to-face human interaction is greatly missed right

because

you see these polls come out and people say like they're the loneliest they've ever been even though there's so many different ways to connect to people so if Human interaction like it's gonna make that 360, you know

time where it's like people wanted more than ever and people are trying to find more ways to connect again because I think we live in a society where people genuinely like forget how to people like you see it from 2020 when people got back out here in the world like they act like they don't even know how to like like bro have you never seen a person before people make jokes about the younger generation is it Gen Z you

know what

I don't even

know it anymore

I don't know anymore.

Okay, because I know the Gen Z Gen X and I get it I get it mixed up I think it's Gen Z who is under Millennials and the X is over Millennials But so Gen Z people make jokes about them and they're like when you go up to them and they're working They don't even talk to you.

They just stare at you blankly

When you interact with young people, you realize they really lack the knowledge of how to interact with people in person.

They're like, oh, shoot.

And they just stare at you, and you got to carry the conversation.

Like, hi, this is what I want to order.

They don't listen.

The Chick-fil-A jizz years got it together.

But the other ones, they be like,

see, that's a good question.

So what does that say then?

How can Chick-fil-A get it right?

But the others want the others can't.

Is it, is it Gen

Z?

I think they actually train

people.

The other restaurants don't train nobody.

They just throw you in there.

They, they burning and turning.

All right.

They like, Hey, who can cover these shifts?

Okay.

Cool.

Good luck.

They don't.

A lot of places I will say don't even have soft skills training, right?

Like I had a job that made you go through soft skills training first.

And I've never had a job like that again.

You know what I mean?

And that says a lot.

I've been working since I was 14.

Wait a minute.

First of all, there's so much going on, I'm laughing at right now.

First of all, I got two questions before we go to Shannon's future husband on the phone line.

So I'm assuming you didn't fail the soft people skills.

You didn't pass the soft people skills, because you said that's the last time I took a job like

that.

I worked there for a long time.

I'm saying that like they made you take a class basically on soft skills, like just regular customer service and how to handle certain things.

And I thought it was very

like- You are the generation you are talking about.

You're talking about yourself and you're framing it as a generation.

You outed

yourself.

It's too

late.

I'm not a millennial.

I'm a millennial.

Yeah, millennial by age.

But you're using yourself as the example.

But you just

said,

you said, I

don't

want those skills are necessary.

Exactly.

So why do I have

to

start the conversation?

Just tell me what food you want and get out my

line.

That's the last time I take a soft people skills

job.

I used what I learned during that training for other jobs.

And I know this other job gave you that type of training.

Jesus.

Y'all love to see what I'm saying.

It's something that I think every job should actually do because a lot of people lack common knowledge.

Like I think everybody else would agree.

Like when you hire somebody for a job, you would hope they have basic knowledge of how to deal with people.

But I noticed it's just not true.

Well, I rest my case.

Don't rest it yet, Shannon, because you need to pick up the phone for your future husband that is online right now.

Speaking of

online dating.

Say hello, Shannon.

Say.

See?

Look, she just did the Gen Z stand.

She just did the Gen Z stand, too.

I didn't know he was on the line.

What's up, baby?

What's up, baby?

My baby ain't got it.

You got to get to do a little all-in, baby.

She ain't got to do nothing.

She's good.

All my baby got to do is tell me what she mean.

I got it.

She's all good.

Oh my god.

She has sent you that program list real quick.

It's a thousand things on that list.

I physically seen it with my eyes.

I was there when she said, I'm going to put this on paper.

We was at Casa Blanca.

I'm not making this up.

OK.

OK.

That's what I'm talking about.

But I'm going to stay out y'all away.

I'm going to let y'all chop it up, buddy.

Go ahead, my boy.

Yeah, yeah.

But like I said, black women, black women got to be very careful thinking about online dating because.

Like I say, I got daughters, and I would never suggest that they go and do online.

Because you don't know what you're going to run into.

And the whole part of the matter is, if you're trying to meet somebody, I'll tell my clubs, I'll tell my upscale clubs that have a door fee or as churches.

or it's libraries, it's multiple places where you can go to interact if you're trying to meet somebody and you don't necessarily have to go out with the intentions to meet somebody, you gotta let it flow to you.

You know what I'm saying?

And online dating, man, that's, man, I never do that no more.

That costed me thousands.

When I say thousands,

I'm talking about thousands.

What happened?

Tell us

your story.

What what what what ends up happening is I End up grabbing this female.

You know I'm saying and man She had a she had a laundry list when I feel largely list.

She had me pay.

She had me paying other folks bills I Didn't mind paying her bill, but you know, you know, I'm saying she had me paying other folks bills, you know

I

mean, I

mean, she had me, you know, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm a real brother.

You know what I'm saying?

I don't mind taking care of mama's and, you know, cheese and auntie's and grandmothers.

I understand that the family is a total package, but you got me there.

I don't know if I was saying that baby daddy bills and his one.

You're listening to The Lunch Break with Ray Nitty and maybe Shannon, where every discussion is on the menu on the award-winning 1017 The Truth.

What up, y'all?

What up,

Milwaukee?

What it do?

What it do?

It is hour two with your favorite crew in the brew.

Y'all right?

Before we get back into this conversation,

I was looking up like you

passed out

Man, this is an outbreak happening right now, actually.

Oh, man.

But yeah, so back into the conversation.

We were talking about online dating and meeting people online.

We also talked about the young woman that lost her life not too long ago.

Her killer was sentenced yesterday to life in prison.

And it got us on a conversation about how people interact with each other and how people meet other people these days, right?

We got a call from Mahdi and he was mentioning, he mentioned how he would never suggest online dating.

He he would suggest people go to places where you have to pay a cover charge where you have to Talk to people in person and catch their vibes and stuff like that But even with that I do question like you're meeting a person for the first time right there Vulnerable right in person and maybe online can add an extra layer of protection I don't know but then he also talked about how he online daddy before ended up in a bad situation

I would say I would never send money to nobody online for sure.

That's what you don't do.

You gotta meet them and be locked in before you start sending stuff because those romance games are something else,

okay?

But then we also have some comments in the chat.

Oh, yes, we

have Abstract Noir for one for he said if you aren't going to date the person don't talk to them at all.

I Think that's insane like

completely insane because we live in a world right when you're an adult I mean not even an adult you should be teaching your children this too that it's okay to have platonic relationships not being able to speak to somebody unless you want to be with them is like what world do you live in right like you I can't talk to my doctor now because I don't want to date them I can't look

I shouldn't

be on this show

I'm sorry for leaving y'all alone.

I don't understand what world that is.

That's insane to even have that mindset, especially I'm gonna assume you're an adult.

Platonic relationships are very important because everybody in this world can give you a different perspective.

Everybody in this world can add value to your life without you having to sleep with them, without you having to date them.

So that's not even the conversation we were having.

there's that Alicia said in today's dating world you have to be cautious always just because you meet somebody online just because you meet someone at the grocery store bar gas station bank there's no guarantee that they are a safe person and that's kind of what I was getting into it is no guarantee that they're a safe person even when you meet in person like it takes a while to get to know a person to be able to

Feel their vibes.

And I think the online dating thing is scary because you never know who you're meeting.

But because people can hide behind the screen, but I also kind of feel like it adds an extra layer of protection in the sentence because you ain't got to meet them out in person.

We also have, oh, Ray responded.

Ray said, y'all are tough.

I'm interviewing on it.

So don't even speak to folks.

How do we preserve human interaction?

Sounds like we are headed toward not trusting anyone, right?

Like you can't even talk to nobody, right?

Look don't talk to me.

You

ain't trying

to make me tomorrow shut up.

Like what are we talking

about?

Robert said my cousin and his wife on Tinder and like I said

Robert said that his cousin met his wife on Tinder.

Ray said his sister met her

husband

on a dating website.

It's very normal nowadays because that's the world we live in, where we're online constantly.

And that's where we get most of our information.

That's where we meet most people.

Like in the beginning, I was thinking to myself, man, I would never online date.

And then I was like, wait, I've met.

A lot of women friends online.

I've met a lot of people that support me more than like people.

I'm not no one person So it's it's it's a damn line between cutting yourself off from the world and Just being safe, you know,

yeah, and I think that's what I think that's exactly what is happening

I think that's exactly what's happening and what's going to be going on in the world because as people get deeper and deeper into technology and I get it, I get it.

We don't want AI.

We don't want all of these things.

That's a whole different conversation, right?

But it's happening.

Whether we want it or not, it's going to happen.

It's going to happen.

It's going to happen.

All right.

So sooner or later, we're going to start seeing more AI rolled out into our lives.

You're going to see more people using AI and technology in their lives that is going to just be in my opinion, in my opinion.

That is just going to cause more less and less human interaction you have You have AI agents where you don't even need to send the email yourself anymore and it will send it to you so now

You interact in more with the agent than your own email that you don't even have to send to send a send a warm email to the team, please.

And let them know what the orders are for today and the task for today and have everybody report back to the project manager and boom, 50 seconds, you'll send that out.

And sure, business could run, but we losing.

We're losing that human interaction, that connection, talking to people.

We're about to have robots, humanoid robots, whether we believe it or not, it is coming.

Have you seen them training to fight, bro?

Somebody said, stop training them to fight.

They training them to whoop tail, folks.

I don't need one of them coming after me.

You seeing how fast these things run?

They run fast.

See, speaking of where we come.

Oh, my God, did you hear about the one that groped the woman?

It was a teenager, as a matter

of I

think.

So what is happening?

So all I'm saying is, in my opinion, I have no inside track.

I am only but an entertainer.

All right.

But.

You're entertaining.

I'm only but an entertainer.

And all I'm saying is these robots is coming because they need folks that could do the work and don't have to take breaks and all of this stuff.

And now they're groping people when we come back because you always

go

ahead.

We got to go

to but this went too

quick.

I was going to say because people always trying to find a way where they can spend less money.

and still become, and still be efficient.

And this is where we at.

We'll continue this.

Things our weirdos

that's gonna take advantage.

I'm telling you, you're like, I can't grab her behind, so I'm gonna have my cyborg do it.

When we come back, y'all, we'll get back into this conversation right here on the award-winning

10170 Truth.

You're listening to The Lunch Break with Ray Nitty and Maybe Shannon, where every discussion is on the menu on the award-winning 1017 The Truth.
