[00:02:54] that was a great time. Right. Then you know it went well. Okay.

[00:03:00] Or I left the money on the nightstand. Yeah, there you go. There you go. Yeah, or speaking of that, one of you guys always here, or a theme song in the beginning, in our opening, in our out well intro in the beginning, and you hear our friend DJ Tim

[00:04:20] Dog speaking as he introduces the show, please keep him in your prayers. All right, I guess we got some stuff to talk about for tonight's show You know as we get ready gosh man Christmases next week I Mean it feels like Christmas is this we I heard today someone say is five days away I was like Jesus. I know what is it Monday Sunday Monday? It's I know when it's when it's on a Monday is really

[00:05:42] It's really weird

[00:05:44] You think it's the weekend, but it's Hey, I was in one store, man. It was hardly anything in there. I was like, Oh, you know what it was that, um, that dollar general store over over near Christiana. Um, and the shelves were bare, man. I was like, well, what happened in here?

[00:07:02] David, it was probably telling you you shouldn't have been doing your Christmas

[00:07:05] shopping at Dollar Center. I was.

[00:08:04] I was in the boss guy's shopper until like the last few years

[00:08:06] That's door got everything

[00:08:11] And they got great and they got great deals at this time of year

[00:08:16] Great deals and it would be the funny thing. I was with my wife when I were going over there

[00:08:18] And I was like man boss guys They don't got another boss guys for old people and that's how I thought about it in my mind

[00:08:23] And before that before we left the store

[00:09:22] I don't even know what you call it. But basically, if you see a watch you like,

[00:09:23] and they had them, they had some of everything.

[00:09:26] You buy nail pay later.

[00:09:30] So, so anything, so every time I see a watch,

[00:09:32] I'm like, I can go ahead and put $25 on that.

[00:09:35] If they can pay $25 a month for eight months.

[00:09:38] And Dave, I probably bought about 30 watches

[00:09:41] through that program.

[00:09:42] You know, you know, never defaulting, never not paying.

[00:09:46] So then maybe last couple of years,

[00:09:48] I went back and I looked at the site Well, if I get a good enough deal on something, I will have one for every day of the week. So, but I've always been a watch guy. So I got a bad, I love you. And that's one of the few things I will splurge on for myself is if I see a nice watch, you know, so, you know, I could all like watch just till I get me that Rolex that I did.

[00:11:02] Look, one of my coworkers said they went

[00:11:04] in the Rolex store recently,

[00:11:06] and they picked up this watch that they really, Yeah, I know exactly who it was. Okay, all right. Well, you know, you may not know the name for those out there who are listening. You may not know the name, but if you Google him and you see his face, you say, oh, yeah, I know who that is because he's been in a lot of different things, a lot of big movies, a lot of beach shows. You know, he's been, he's on, I know one of the shows he's on is All Rise.

[00:13:23] But he just said that this person's been doing this for years. Now, a lot of this is coming from, of course, we've had all the allegations with sexual misconduct, abuse, and rape and all of this stuff has been coming up recently, especially with Diddy.

[00:13:39] Even Bill Cosby's name came back up, Jamie Foxx. have a little bit of merit to it. But Kristen Keys is saying that this person, he's threatening to expose who this person is. And of course, people today, we start guessing,

[00:15:00] trying to figure out who he's talking about,

[00:15:01] because he didn't name any names. I don't know if any of these live in Atlanta. These are some of the most famous, so I would just say top nine, but not necessarily the top nine, black producers. Ava DuVernay, so we know it's not her. Jordan Peel, is he in Atlanta area?

[00:16:21] I don't know.

[00:16:22] I'm not sure, I'm not sure.

[00:16:23] Tyler Perry, of course is it? No, we know we know that's not the case. Yeah. Okay. So, um, let me just read a little bit of what this article says, just to, just to tell you how people are when it comes to speculation is that fans of actors, Kristen Keys are coming for Tyler Perry as they, they are

[00:17:43] convinced he is, he is, he's the influential entertainment figure who that it was okay to say these things. He's just speaking out after being empowered by Cassie's $30 million lawsuit against Sean Diddy Combs. So is this motivation money maybe? He even threatened to release recordings of the man

[00:19:01] sexually assaulting him.

[00:19:04] Now, this says to fan calling them out. It says, keys fans called out Perry in this comment section on Instagram. One person wrote, we will cancel TF out of you if you arrest this young man, Tyler,

[00:20:24] if you arrested this it's not Tyler. At least they got a whole got a whole mess up out there right now. Yeah, Dave, this what I call it. What's that quote? You can't throw throw rocks and hide your hands or

[00:22:47] It could be money because I did see in another article that he is not doing well financially.

[00:22:55] And so that could be part of why he's saying what he's saying now. But, you know, if he's using Cassie on Gail King but he may be on Tasha K. Tasha K there. She would get the, she would get right to the story. She will be playing around. Yeah so but anyway I guess we'll, we'll, we'll

[00:24:20] hear more about this story as the comp and then-sexual, but ain't no telling what goin' behind closed doors. Yeah, that's true. And we know that to be true. So, all right, well, we'll be kind of following this story to try to see what goes on with this. And we'll, you know,

[00:25:40] cause I'm sure if he ever names names, man,

[00:25:43] that's gonna be a big thing.

[00:25:45] So, it'll be almost like, what's the name of? next story where we got. All right Dave so our next story and this may bring it be a flashback for you. You remember the the 10 year old who was um arrested for peeing outside his mother's car while she was at the attorney's office? Yeah.

[00:27:07] All right well he has had his trial and he was sentenced. No are you serious? Yep. car waiting for his mother. His mother was in an attorney's office. And Dave, I can't remember what she was in there for in this article doesn't mention it. But she was in an attorney's office. And while she was in the attorney's office, he's in the car. He had to go to the bathroom years old. His mother says that he did what any reasonable 10 year old would do. He urinated behind the car door not exposing himself to anybody. And she says that he would not have been arrested, prosecuted, sentenced

[00:30:44] They put him on probation for three months.

[00:30:48] Now, I wonder if that's gonna stay on his record.

[00:30:54] No, so his mother do say that it will not be on his record. So when it's done, his record is free and clear.

[00:30:58] But if they stay in that area as he becomes a dull

[00:31:01] or whatever, if he ever gets in trouble,

[00:31:03] I'm sure it'll be brought back up.

[00:31:05] Oh, I'm sure it will be.

[00:31:06] Yeah, yeah.

[00:31:07] And they've got the exact word. I don't, that is the craziest thing I've ever heard of. And, well, there's so many things I wanna say here, but I don't think I should. All I'm gonna say is that, could this have happened here?

[00:32:24] I don't say there Well, I guess he can't leave why he's on probation, but it's Off a probation. I'm leaving. I don't want to raise my kid in a place that he doesn't have that he you know

[00:33:40] that that kind of

[00:33:42] You know that you're that restricted based on who you are and the color in your skin

[00:34:44] race racism. Yeah, but if you think about that's where I was going to go. If you think about in the past, most of those

[00:34:48] people who, you know, when slavery when they became free and

[00:34:52] all that stuff, where did they move? They moved north. Yeah.

[00:34:56] Okay, because they and because they were handling things

[00:34:59] different up here, you know, you can be a free man up here. You

[00:35:03] couldn't be a free man down there. So yeah, so it's always

[00:36:10] You know, we will, you know, follow it and see what this forthcoming lawsuit is and see if, you know, good old client TV is can get a couple dollars in this pocket. So this.

[00:36:11] And convenience.

[00:36:13] Yeah.

[00:36:14] Yeah.

[00:36:15] Yeah.

[00:36:15] There you go.

[00:36:15] There you go.

[00:36:17] All right.

[00:36:18] All right.

[00:36:19] Well, I guess we'll move on to our next story.

[00:36:21] You guys are listening to news and trends with David Lent.

[00:36:24] Thank you for spending your time listening to our show.

[00:36:27] We really appreciate all the support. movie that was about to come out in a couple years. But anyway, this is what this story is about. So let me just kind of give you a little bit here. It starts out by saying, did Jonathan Majors blow up his career over a snow bunny? Well, that's what folks are saying

[00:37:40] on social media now that Disney has dumped him. Ant-Man, except the end fight scenes and Loki were his favorites, said someone. Another one said, Black actors and athletes should know by now to leave the milk alone.

[00:39:06] Learn from Emmet. It's funny, it's been kind of mixed about how people felt about this whole thing. There were a few people that were saying that he was being railroaded and that the girl was crazy and she was lying and so forth and filmed on anything and when you think you don't people aren't looking people are looking and he you know the worst thing that could have ever happened was he was caught on tape you know the situation was caught on tape and

[00:41:40] and

[00:41:41] Once that happens, I mean, you know, we all remember

[00:41:46] the famous video in the in the elevator

[00:42:42] and she starts fussing with people in the audience. I mean, you can't go anywhere without cameras being on you now.

[00:42:47] And for him to be where he was less than a year ago.

[00:42:53] I mean, and of course,

[00:42:57] you know, we've had a lot of actors, big name actors

[00:43:00] to recently get caught up in craziness and whatever,

[00:43:03] but you know how many people try to get in that marvel,

[00:44:07] Samuel Jackson. Oh, yeah, I can't forget about Samuel Jackson, but yeah, but I mean, but it's not a lot of us That's what I'm saying. It's not a lot of us and for him that you know be

[00:44:11] Set up, you know the play this role because he played it in Ant-Man and then he was put he he was in Loki's

[00:44:21] Series and then they were setting them up to be the man in

[00:45:22] good and

[00:45:27] You know all of a sudden he was he was a lime back he came back home

[00:45:31] You know what I mean? and

[00:45:32] Normally that's what happens when they go out there they get themselves jammed up they come back home

[00:45:39] To try to make things smoother for him, I don't know where the future's gonna

[00:46:47] wanted to bring that story up because you know we all have made bad decisions in our lives but when it cost you so much like this guy's career you know that that night he probably

[00:46:57] has played that over and over and over again and it's it right now. Yeah I'm sure. Yeah so

[00:48:07] a little boy in Texas wanted to have his picture taken with Santa. However, the little boy's mother,

[00:48:14] Megan Butler Coleman, wanted to want to Santa in question to look like her son.

[00:48:19] Needless to say, she being able to be that reflection for so many kids and family, Doug was said,

[00:49:42] and he's not alone. It says, going to the fact of what Santa is supposed to mean and the service that Santa provides for so many young people. With that in mind, he's been able to build this business with the right attitude that

[00:51:00] makes a lot of sense.

[00:51:01] Now, of course, the trick to the, you know, kids don't just have to see a white Santa, they can see a black Santa.

[00:52:21] But overall, this whole Santa thing is out of control.

[00:52:27] It's out of control. early. Because a lot of stuff goes early. I'm sure a lot of stuff is open or open late. So the reason why I say the old Santa Claus thing is because I feel like, and I mean, at the end of the day, just beyond, do we really care about Christmas being the spirit of giving?

[00:53:43] I feel like most people don't. Now the birth and they're trying to play into that diversity thing. And they do bring somebody a black

[00:55:01] senate and then yeah, I think it's all about getting the

[00:55:06] month the shoppers and everything to come there because as soon contractor. He has sort of, you know, he has his own little hustle. He's a contractor, but from it starts, well, it gets earlier and earlier, every year he says, he said that, you know, because, you know, the holidays start early and earlier and now especially with social, with social, with the internet, with shopping and all that stuff. So he said that his this year, November 1st What day we in the wrong business? I know. I know. I said, I said, are you serious? He said, Dave, think about it. 20. I mean, 30 to $50 every picture. That's my take. Okay. I said, well, what constitutes a $, the kids get on the elevator. It's a, you're in the store and you get on the elevator and the elevator, they shut the door and you see all these gears moving, like the elevator looks like it's going up and up and then all of a sudden you see the sky

[00:59:01] and you're over all, it looks like you're looking down,

[00:59:05] you can hear there's or another in our lives. So it's good that he's keeping that going. I just realized you put that. I was trying to look. I was saying untrue. Oh, like, okay. I know you just went you went hardcore. I didn't want to say live but you know my my original question didn't say lie. It said.

[01:01:47] Yeah, but anyway, anyway, anyway, so the biggest lie your parents or parents told you as a kid that you found out later on simply wasn't true. Think about it. I mean, I mean, I can't say there's anything big. Now, there's a lot of little lies. Okay. You know, if you eat all that, your teeth are going to fall

[01:03:00] out.

[01:03:05] Especially when it came to candy, right?

[01:04:04] a whole bunch of little lives, I never knew a live. I just trusted it when they said that,

[01:04:12] you know, the store ran out of cookies or, you know, my dad picked me up late from practice because he had a meeting when I know he just oversle- you know what I mean? Overflips.

[01:04:18] But they not, not, not, not nowadays because was the two fair. Yeah. You know, because I've remembered believing that the two fair actually left that money under my pillow, you know, and that was something because I just, you know, you kind of stuff. So. But after after you realized that Too Fairy did not exist, how long did you act like she existed just so your parents? Oh, no. You know what? Once I remember when I, you know, of course, it was another kid that told me, they said, look, they ain't they know Too Fairy. That's your parents putting that

[01:07:00] money under your pillow, whatever. I remember going to my mom

[01:07:04] and saying something to her about it.

[01:08:04] came up with that were very prevalent and very big during that time.

[01:08:06] Outside of the course, the Santa Claus thing.

[01:08:08] I think that Santa Claus, I think,

[01:08:10] is the biggest one ever.

[01:08:12] I really do.

[01:08:13] Yeah.

[01:08:14] Yeah, I really do.

[01:08:15] So I don't think any story can top that story.

[01:08:21] Not so.

[01:08:23] But anyway, there you have it, folks.

[01:08:26] And if you guys have some ones that you know,
