State Fair Aftermath

Truth in The Morning · Tue Aug 18, 2026

I've

had a poll put up on our YouTube page and I want to explain to you what I mean by it.

Um, it simply says, are you tired of some of us?

So it's, it's not a stereotype.

So I'm not going to say are you tired of us?

Are you tired of some of us?

And yes, I mean black people.

I mean, are you tired of some of us?

Because I am.

I am.

It's not going to make me stop fighting.

But yes, I am tired of some of us because it's too many people and too many organizations out here who are busting their ass to show that you don't have to be or live that way.

some situations out here to where as, yes, we know, uh, we were dealt a crazy ass hand, but we've been able to overcome some of the most craziest things.

But now we are contributing to where, um, a post was put up as it related to the state fair situation and the white people didn't hold black.

The white people did not hold black with their commentary when this person put up this post a state senator of district five Democrat Mike Roberts put up a post and The white people ended up you know saying all the things that unfortunately that I knew That they were gonna say I see a lot of those posts on the US FIR

page which gives a lot of times real time police scanner data of some of the violence and fires and things like that that are happening in our community things that are happening on the freeway because they're taking it right off the scanner and they're posting it and I See a lot of people get upset when they hear some of the commentary or they see some of the comments that

People that don't look like us post on those particular stories and they get mad.

And they go into a black and forth battle.

And what about you?

Go, go this, go that, go that, you know, and my thing is, and I've always said this is why are we giving them things to talk about?

So the poll again is, are you tired of some of us?

And that's black people.

I'm speaking.

Are you tired of some of our black people?

I ain't saying all because there's a lot of us that are out here trying to do great things or doing the best that we can or trying to add to being a part of the solution as opposed to adding yourself as part of the problem.

So it's not all, but are there are you tired of some of us?

I am.

I'll tell you my answer.

Am I tired of some of our black people?

Yes, I am.

Yes, I am.

But yet here I still fight.

The truth calling in line 833-212-1017-833-212-1017.

Let me kind of show you and give you an example of a Facebook post that was put up and it quotes because it was reposted by a Waukesha County Democratic Party.

says trigger warning the screenshots contain explicit racism racial slurs dehumanizing language and calls for violence and it absolutely does it it does uh so uh take uh take the poll give me your response yes or no are you tired of some of us and i'm speaking of black people so let me read what the message that was um posted

After violence at the Wisconsin State Fair this past weekend, candidate for state Senate District 5, Mike Roberts made a post about what happened.

The comments quickly became a cesspool of racism, dehumanization, and calls for violence.

And Mike Roberts left the post up.

No condemnation, no effort to shut it down, nothing.

You can condemn violence without giving racism a platform.

This should be the easiest line in the world for someone seeking public office to draw.

Instead, Roberts watched his own page become a place for this hatred and state silent.

Shame on every single person who proudly put their name and face next to these comments.

This isn't an anonymous corner of the internet.

These are people publicly spewing hatred about members of their own community.

If you can't even condemn blatant racism and cause for violence on your own Facebook page, you have no business representing our community as an elected official.

Now, let me go into some of the comments which, you know, I will edit, I will self edit to the best of my ability on these situations.

So it clearly shows that this was all on Mike Roberts post.

One of the comments by Earl Mertz said, time to start shooting them with an exclamation mark again.

They want to be criminals, treat them as such, ages and keeping them from hurting slash killing others.

Rabbit animals need putting down.

Damn.

Steve Laird, he said, effing.

Nigos FN ends Yeah Lance Morris.

So yeah, I'm saying this is all on a public format.

It's on his social media page So yes, I'm saying the names of those who made that and that's why it the person that shared it ended up saying Look trigger warning the whole nine.

So Steve Laird Said

Effing inwards, I'll just say that Lance Morris said when bad men combine the good must associate else they will fall one by one an Unpityed sacrifice in a contemptible struggle a quote from Edmund Burke Gary Carver said on Mike Roberts post they're all black kids

J9 summer said those social workers really had it under control Gary Martin said not surprised they all in words William Sherlock said more chimpin Brian Dietrich said animals Wally Miller said it's Milwaukee and it's the emojis of the pile of sugar-honey iced tea

Mark St.

Germain said, all same color skin.

Freddie Potter said, it's the usual EBT crowd.

Tim Call said, spelled K-H-L, gutter rats coming from the hood and they still can't act

right.

This is a sick negro.

John Johans.

Typical suspects added again, when will the zookeeper remember to lock the cages?

Damn happy Travis said shoot the MF's These are all on Mike Roberts public post and again, he did nothing to take it down or anything to that nature Mitch Lemke said it's not the color of your skin.

We're tired of it's your culture It's the way you behave.

We're tired of the loud violent obnoxious ghetto culture

Gary Rice said, wherever these are crowds of blacks, there will be this sugar, honey, iced tea.

Dan Hale posted a meme, said, black, the ability to break every law in the country and still remain the victim.

Fatigue, sick of black privilege, sick of black violence, sick of black behavior, sick of black crime, sick of black racism.

Mark St St.

Germain again said all same color skin Jesse servant put up a screenshot post with a monkey on it said that's some chimp sugar, honey iced tea Now although we'll get upset and mad at this stuff

Why why are we giving people that we know are races that are all that?

Why are we giving them things to talk about?

My producer Xavier wants to chomp at the bit to give some commentary, so I'm going to Go over to Xavier again.

Great morning.

Love you appreciate you.

You have this look on your face, bro.

So what's your

truth?

I just sounds like you have some supporters for your annihilation idea.

I think you should court them and I think they will, you know, you might be, you might be able to get some legislation done.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Listen, uh, Laurent Taylor on our YouTube page said, so the term black fatigue, I'm not sure where that came from, but it's now being used against us because everybody else is tired of our behavior.

You know, I had Xavier put up a poll and I'm talking about black people with this poll.

Are you tired of some of us?

Yes or no?

What is the percentage right now on that poll Xavier to the poll that I asked him to put up on our YouTube page?

Are you tired of some of us?

Yes or no?

100%

yes.

Now that's where you hit a damn high key.

a hundred

percent

yes

damn

yeah so i'm not alone and you know when we talk about unity it is it's hard to achieve it when we are so tired of some of us it is crazy it is it is crazy

Uh, Laurent Taylor said it's them again.

Usual suspects chomping out.

Somebody unlocked the zoo.

If you don't like it, stop acting like it.

Aaron is him.

Great morning.

Love you.

Appreciate you.

Um, I think he meant chipping out.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Uh, minister Kevin said most of those are fake pages.

They're afraid to use their real names and pictures.

Yeah, but they're saying their truth.

They are saying their truth That that is the part that we got to really look at They're saying their truth and they got an orange man who's who represents them.

He hates women all of the things Tell women shut up being your plate Lee.

Don't you hear this young man talking?

We got to get ready take care of some bill.

Yes, this is definitely serious Millison minister

Kevin said, but that same 100% is tired of them too.

Hashtag that part.

Hashtag facts.

Hashtag why you know that there's a lot of work that needs to be done.

We got to get ready.

Take care of some bills.

The truth call in line is open at 833-212-1017.

Whether you're stopping in for lunch, dinner or just craving something cool, there's a flavor waiting for you.

cool down with a shake from cousin subs cousin subs we believe in better and I believe in the strawberry shape because I'm a club sub and you're gonna learn today.

Welcome back to truth in the morning.

Yes, you may notice that I am rolling solo on today.

My girl Bailey Coleman will return on tomorrow.

We're just

talking about some unsettling truths.

They are real truths that we have to deal with.

And it's sad that, you know, we are in these places.

But we have to, we have to come up with the solutions.

Like, if you know that this is somebody, like there are so many people that I hear oftentimes say, yeah, that's them ones down the street.

They always, well, they shouldn't always have to be there.

Where are the other neighbors that feel just like you that can end up saying look you know a Community liaison officer.

These are problem houses in our area.

This is a problem house on our block People that are not keeping up with their stuff called Department of Neighborhood Services Have people go out there and right start writing some citations start getting in contact with the property owner the homeowners, you know the

The management companies whatever the case may be we have to start and continue to use our voices Don't get frustrated if you don't see something instantaneous happen You sometimes it's gonna take some work and it's gonna have to take all those who are really tired Sick and tired of being sick and tired to try to deal with these situations.

It's just a real thing it is a real thing and that that's

That's just hashtag facts.

It's hashtag facts.

To know and understand that it can be done, we can look at Metcalf Park.

We can look at Metcalf Park.

I don't know, Xavier, I don't know if you were able to finally find that video.

All right.

But.

There's a story where Metcalfe Park Improvement District proposal has been submitted for approval and This story is talking about Metcalfe Park.

You would always hear a men MC Dame Elsie Talking about it because again part of his work with they at that time with Alderman Russell Stanford second is that in the 15th district

lies Metcalf Park and in this particular story it says and we hear a lot of great things happening with Metcalf Park trying to work on the fact of the food desert and with big grocery stores closing small grocery stores closing and that Metcalf Park and the residents there have started to come up with their own solutions and this is what I'm saying we we can do this.

Trust and believe we done been in some crazy situations, but that's when you have a neighborhood and what Metcalf Park has Done and continue to push and focus on is being neighbors Because neighbors know how to help other neighbors neighbors know how to get some of the people that Just because they look like us they ain't down with us.

They have become a part of the problem

And you get rid of that.

You have to get rid of that.

But in this story, again, great work and congratulations as Metcalf Park and the residents are on their way.

And I see that they should run into no road bumps or roadblocks at all in this.

But it says Metcalf Park residents and this is on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel page or online.

Metcalf Park residents have submitted a draft initial operating plan to the Milwaukee Department of City Development, completing a crucial step towards establishing a neighborhood improvement district.

A neighborhood improvement district is a quasi-governmental agency.

that provides grants to homeowners for repairs and connects residents to the City of Milwaukee housing resources.

Over six months, neighbors met to formulate an operating plan for the forthcoming improvement district, identifying objectives, activities, and financing methods, among other things.

Meetings were hosted by Metcalf Park Community Bridges, a community-led neighborhood organization, while the two entities would remain separate.

Community bridges may be contracted for services, such as operational support.

Sally, and I'm not going to destroy the last name, S-V-E-T-I-C, Sally, an economic development specialist at the Department of City Development helped guide the neighborhood through the proposal drafting process.

She said the meetings were inclusive and community-centered.

Typically, when I go to these meetings, it's very dry, Sally said.

There may be a presentation, but I really love how Melody McCurtis, who is the Deputy Director of Community Bridges, always brought in activities, icebreakers, and movement activities to get people working and learning together.

Sally said that the approach results it in an operating plan that aligns with the neighborhood shared vision of utilizing collective action to strengthen community investment in creating a thriving Metcalf Park.

That vision includes an improvement district that supports efforts centered around housing access, upkeep and beautification according to the draft proposal.

The district will support all accessible properties that fall within the neighborhood boundaries, which are North 27th and North 38th Street from West Center Street to West North Avenue.

It will be funded through the city property tax assessments.

My producer has got that video and it may go over some of these things, but I want you to be able to see it.

If you are on our YouTube page or Facebook page, you'll be able to watch it.

And of course, if you were just.

tuned in or logged on, you'll be able to hear it.

So here's that story again, a salute to Melody and everybody that works diligently over there in the Metcalf Park area.

And again, I see nothing but that proposal that was accepted on the Common Council level and now it goes through the other entities and whatnot.

So we're going to play that clip again, something that we can be proud of and

Hopefully learn from it and start taking black our own areas and turning them black into Community neighborhoods where people are working together the residents are coming together to help and it's people that don't need to be there get them out get them out Xavier if you can play that clip for me,

please

and trusted neighborhood spaces and stocked collectively reflect a simple but powerful principle.

Take what you need and leave what you can.

This is solidarity.

This is dignity.

That is community control.

I'm also proud to introduce a new resolution establishing the Milwaukee City County Joint Task Force to address the food access crisis.

This task force will align the county, the city,

public health leaders and community voices to develop a coordinated plan to eliminate food deserts.

Today is a powerful day.

Not because we're simply cutting a ribbon, but because we are cutting through barriers.

We are cutting through food insecurity.

We're cutting through the idea that our neighborhood has to wait for help.

When grocery stores closed, our community felt it immediately.

families felt it, seniors felt it, parents felt it, trying to stretch a dollar.

And in that moment, we had two choices.

We could complain about the problem, or we could organize around the solution.

And what did this community do?

What do we do, y'all?

There we go.

We organized.

We organized.

This committee-powered fringe is proof

that when neighbors look out for one another, real change happens.

And that was Alderman Russell-Stampard II.

And that was them again, Metcalf Park, pushing their initiatives with the new community fridges in Milwaukee.

Again, just that commitment and that's what we need in our communities.

We need people to stand up and take black our neighborhoods and stop being comfortable with just living in the hood.

Because again, for all my life, when you hear about the hood, it comes with nothing but negative connotations, period.

It's all good in the hood, but you also talking about yeah, you just got to always keep your head on the swivel though Who wants to have to keep their head on the swivel all the damn time?

Where do you get to relax?

Where do you get to say I can let my children go out and not worried about some pedophile or rapist or monster?

Trying to grab them and take them somewhere without the whole block alerting everybody

You know without the child knowing how to yell out stranger danger We got to get ready take care of some bills We've got examples we just have to follow them You're listening to truth in the morning on the award-winning one on one seven FM the truth I am the legendary Homer blow we gonna take care of these bills and I'll be black

It's some in my opinion.

So what is the percentage?

What do we change

percent?

Yes Damn All right, so I am not alone I am not alone and and that's something that we you really got to think about that you really got to think about that.

It's a hundred percent So no one I guess like me

We sick and tired of being sick and tired You know again the verse I always quote one of the many great verses in the song self-destruction was the late heavy D's verse Hmm, they call us animals.

I don't agree with them Wrong is what I'm proving them, but right is what you've proven and That's that's not a good thing.

That's not a healthy thing at all

So, yeah, they say a change is going to come.

It needs to happen.

It needs to happen.

I'm just trying to tell you, it needs to happen.

Like hashtag that part, hashtag facts.

You're going to learn today.

Now, speaking of that poll, it leads to a

updated story from CBS 58 about state fair, which is how I began this morning's show, and it says seven people arrested after fights at final night of Wisconsin State Fair.

In my opinion, it should have been a lot more than seven people.

It should have been a lot more than seven people.

Yeah, but the headline of the story says seven people arrested after fights at final night of Wisconsin State Fair.

See if my producer has that lined up yet once he gets that lined up Yep, so then we'll be ready to Let you check that out and give me your truth remember Call in number eight three three two one two ten seventeen or you can make your comments on our YouTube page But yeah, it is it's We got to do better, you know

What is it uh Cecil Nicholson said I feel your pain today.

Yeah.

Yep.

Yep.

Yep.

It's it's it's sad It is sad.

It is crazy Minister Kevin said we lost the neighbors and just kept the hood as I say it all the time and and that That was the beginning of the end as it related to the village When we gave into

Having a hood and being proud of a hood instead of a neighborhood That's why you can't Ask the person a door next next door to you a couple of houses down from you because you got they phone them Because y'all keep each other informed if we see anything crazy going on Yeah, so But I'll read it because

We're having some issues with trying to show the clip.

But again, this is from CBS 58.

And it says seven people were arrested after several fights broke out on the final day of Wisconsin, of the Wisconsin State Fair.

New video shows the chaos, which we kind of showed on yesterday, which was from CBS 58 as well.

New video shows the chaos unfolding at the final night of the fair's 11 day run.

police scanner audio from Sunday captures officers responding to several fights near Spin City.

In some videos, more than 30 people are surrounding police officers as they try to break up several fights.

And somebody said, oh, explain if they're actually fighting.

A bystander can be heard saying.

It was a chaotic final night at State Fair as video captured by bystanders show.

People trying to push through a crowd as a fight unfolds around them.

Just a few seconds later, a person is tased, requesting assistance at Gate C. It's going to be a rush soon.

This is what was being heard.

Officers can be heard on their police scanner radio.

Requesting assistance at Gate C. It's going to be rushed soon.

They saw it.

They saw what was happening.

Police scanner audio reveals officers dealing with multiple problems across the fairgrounds.

about 20 teens acting, trying to do a takeover on the racetrack.

That about 20 teens acting, trying to do a takeover on the racetrack.

Another says the West Dallas police department confirms its officers assisted at the state fair, but state fair park police is the lead agency in this case.

We are moving them out with the horses a large fight a large fight Another officer has heard saying if that's all in this video clip I damn sure don't want to try to play this video clip because to hear them play these clips if they're inside this CVS 58 clip It is going to be just dammy Because we can I can read it But to hear the officers, you know trying to call for assistance Xavier if that clip is ready to play

Please let's play this clip.

new video showing the chaos unfolding at the final night of the Wisconsin State Fair.

Police garner audio from Sunday captures officers responding to several fights in your spin city.

Dua Israr joins us live in our newsroom and Dua when you were going through this video how big would you say those crowds got?

Yeah, just been Amanda in some of the videos more than 30 people surrounded police officers as they tried to break up several fights.

In the video you can see one person get tased

and fall to the ground.

It

was a chaotic final night at the State Fair as video captured by bystanders shows people trying to push through a crowd and a fight unfolds around them.

At least 30 people appear to surround officers.

Just a few seconds later, a person is

tased.

Police

scanner audio reveals officers dealing with multiple problems across the

fairgrounds.

The

West Alice Police Department confirms its officers assisted at the State Fair, but State Fair Park Police is the lead agency in this case.

In a statement, the Wisconsin State Fair wrote no serious injuries to fairgoers were reported.

There were no gunshots associated with the incidents at the Wisconsin State Fair.

The statement went on to say the incidents Sunday evening were isolated.

to the final hours of the fair.

The behavior is always unacceptable and is not what we expect or will tolerate at the Wisconsin State Fair Park.

Now the Wisconsin State Fair police say seven people were arrested after these fights.

Just been Amanda

do is for our live in our newsroom.

Yeah, does that just make you proud?

Yeah, yeah, of course I'm being sarcastic.

We got to get ready to take care of some bills.

Truth Nation.

I got

the

solution.

All right.

Xavier is going to come back with his solution when we return.

You're listening to Truth in the Morning on the award-winning 1017 FM.

I'm the legendary Homer Blow holding it down solo this morning.

My girl Bailey Coleman will return on tomorrow.

I'll be black.

Truth in the morning returns after this on 1017 the truth the truth app and streaming live on 1017 the truth on YouTube You are listening to truth in the morning on 1017 the truth the truth app and streaming live on 1017 the truth on YouTube

Welcome black to truth in the morning

Inside the American Family Insurance Studio in the heart of downtown at the Avenue.

I'm the legendary Homer Blow.

We're going to go to our truth call line at 833-212-1017.

Andre, great morning.

Love you, appreciate you.

You hear the conversation.

What's your truth?

Great morning.

Hello?

Yep, great morning.

Hello, I'm saying great morning.

So maybe we're having a bad connection.

So you can try to get

here.

Yeah, yeah, we're here.

We're here.

Oh, all right, great.

I was calling because, you know, you hit 100% on that poll, which is that's a rarity all by itself to have 100 people agree on something that's going on.

But one of the things is is 100% of people willing to do what it takes to deal with the problem,

you

know,

that's where you know you have politicians who you know you have a hundred percent of people saying we need to fix this but then you have politicians who say well we can't do that or we can't do that or we don't want to do this because some of the people who are involved in these incidents raise all kind of hell thinking well it's going to affect me i don't want this to happen they they can't control this like for example um you have to go with the pepper spray

on the fire and police commission wanted to ban the use of pepper spray.

And I remember I was down in Kenosha during that written house steal.

And that was the only way the police could move the people out of the, it was in front of the court house in front of downtown.

But the pepper spray was the only way to get the people out unless you want law enforcement to put hands on people.

And, and it's like, wait a minute, how can you take away a tool and not give them one given the situation?

Because those people were not moving and you know people look oh, that's horrible.

That's horrible thing.

These people had masks already.

They had little, they used those plastic containers as shields to you know, stop the pepper balls and stuff like this.

It was a big game.

And so I'm just saying I'm wondering, you know, 100% of people says we're tired of it.

How can we can't get any movement?

We should.

literally, okay, your kid gets involved in two separate incidents.

After that, parent gets fined or have to go to a parenting class like DWI, you know, you get a DWI and you got to pay for that class.

That's right.

So I'm just, I'm just saying some of these are the things that I think about and look at our community and say, Hey, you know what, what are we willing to do to change it?

That part all day long.

But we got to literally do something.

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

In the paper in motion.

Again, I started, Andrea, but I started out with that.

I'm like, okay, there's some real tough decisions that have to be made that really shouldn't be tough.

You got what I'm saying?

And then I talked about law enforcement.

I'm like, look, if we're not turning in the people, we're doing what Alina Cole did.

For a Thomas Zollack offer who murdered three people two on the side side one on the north side and he told her He told her what he did And she don't leave him at the house multiple times with her 15 year old 11 year old and I believe the other one was six and new and she says she saw the social media post But she wasn't turning to me in

and it's too much of

that that's

going on in our community that is going to keep us in places like this.

You can put up a poll on social media and you, unfortunately, I'm not surprised anymore because I see people that say it and be like, would you turn in your relative?

And the answers from the aggressive ones that are not going to do that, they, they, it's crazy.

It is crazy.

And it's like, then

how are

we going to get better?

How are we going to get rid of this cold?

How are we going to get rid of this flu?

How are we going to get rid of this cough if we're not trying to do anything to protect ourselves?

And so, yeah, to your point, Andre.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm tired of what you're allergic to.

Yeah, there

you go.

There you go.

I appreciate you, Andre.

All right.

Take care.

Yep.

Aaron is him on our YouTube page said racetrack takeover is ridiculous I got a lap to stop from crying and that's how it is that's how it is but speaking of solutions Xavier my producer said he has one and money badger on our YouTube say what about the whole course of the fair peaceful but only on the last night do we have a dustup I'm not saying it's a good thing but matters could have been worse no because again

You could have had the greatest event in the world.

Let one person get killed.

Let one person get trampled and guess what the news is going to be.

We already know how it is.

You already got people saying it's black people saying they need to take away the midway.

It's black people saying they need to take away, you know, not arrest these damn Toys R Us adults that may be out here doing the crimes.

Arrest the teams that are out here acting the damn fool not not not anything with them.

No punishments for them But they should take away the midway That it that is ludicrous you gonna say it like again, we have to take account of it accountability to get we got to get these fools out the way but my producer Xavier has been chomping at the bits

to give us his solution.

So I'm going to say to my producer Xavier, what's your truth and what's your solution?

Oh, if we want to stop them from doing these bad things, we need to build a couple of skate lands because that takes away the violence and a couple of basketball courts.

And if we take all the lead out of the water, they'll be cured.

Is there a laughter hotkey over there?

Oh, I was being serious.

I know, but is there and I was being serious ask.

Oh, I can apply myself there.

No, no, I don't want to applause.

I want a laughter hotkey.

If we don't have one, we need to and if not, I give you one.

Yes.

If you are choked out of mind, if you really think that that will be the solution, they're already destroying skate rinks that we have, right?

And that not necessarily that we have.

So again, unfortunately, here's the sad truth.

Here's the sad truth.

If they won't disrespect white owned and operated skating rinks.

There's a level of disrespect that some of our people, which is clearly shown by that poll, that if it's black-owned, we're gonna go through more hell.

We gotta give them a discount.

We can't charge them the full price, like a white-owned or a foreign-owned store does.

They tell them what the price is, and that's what the price is.

When you, they find out you got a furniture store, aw man, I know you gon' hook up, bruh.

Are you tired?

You know, I'm a single mother.

All it all of the things.

Oh, you don't give homey discounts.

You know, oh, I got ready to say some more choice words, but I'm gonna just say hell no.

You gotta help the community.

Listen, bro, I am helping the community and my work and reputation stands on its own.

But yeah, no, what we not gonna do.

I'm not.

No, no, hell no.

So we got to give them all kind of special discounts because they own income.

But yet you showing all this money, you got a $400 hairdo, your nails cost $100, everything you eat is at an actual restaurant.

You're gonna say all of a sudden, all of a sudden, but you getting assistance from the government.

But yet you bout it, bout it, you a baddie.

Everything you got costed you got Birkin bags, but we got to pay for it You wearing all these Cartier shades brothers, but now I said man You know they don't you up there flashing all this day of money all over social media But you want to talk about yeah, they won't hire me this that he missed me with all of that

Don't judge for renting a Ferrari for prom.

Listen, bro.

All of that I've seen spending for people who ain't even graduating

These proms go all out.

These parents or PWKs go all out knowing damn well that they not even paying a child support that they got as a teenager because they didn't impregnate a two or three different girls.

So I'm just not having it again.

Up next, the award winning Sherwin Hughes returns.

I didn't know until I left the studios leaving the studio.

Oh sure it ain't gonna be in.

Okay, but today he's black The award-winning troop with Sharon Hughes from 9 a.m.

All central standard time

If nobody has told you that they love you today, I want to let you know that I love you.

Please have a safe and nonviolent remainder of the morning, afternoon, evening, and hopefully the things we have to talk about in the near future won't have to be within our minute degrees of separation.

Xavier, thank you for a great show.

I'm out of here.

Holla Black.
