Ebro
Just don't call it a podcast. We are live. You sure? I think. Yes. Wow.
Rosenberg
Now.
Ebro
All right. Already. 300Fs in the room. Shout out to the friends of the show who show up early. I'm still twisting Rosenberg's arm to figure out this 7am for our 7amerson. Here we are in the water. Yes, we are. It is blood in the water. That's right. Matter of fact, we got plans too. Laura's already sending over merch designs.
Laura Styles
It's happening. I thought, listen, we're telling you, we have plans. We mean it. Okay?
Ebro
We mean it.
Laura Styles
We're working.
Ebro
Well, Rosenberg, are you happy with how our plans are shaping up? Are you what you see behind the scenes? I feel like you're a trustworthy, honest voice for the audience. Do you feel like the plans we have for the Ebro Laura Rosenberg show are shaping up nice?
Rosenberg
I think they're, yes, shaping up nice. I believe so. But I also, like, a lot's been happening. So it's a lot of conversation. That's why today we have a meeting after the program.
Ebro
Our first Ebro Laura Rosenberg show post show meeting.
Rosenberg
Yeah. So I don't say that to say I don't have full trust. I do. I just can't lie and say I have full understanding of what's going on because it's a lot. It's like a lot of conversations. Conversations. So. But yes, people should be excited about the level of work and conversation that's going into the plans. I think. Yes.
Ebro
Rosenberg, I saw that you finally, after your work travels over the weekend, got to See the Renee Good analysis videos of her saying, all right, buddy, I'm not mad at you, and then closing with him, this ICE agent. Do we. I don't think we know his name. Basically shooting her and calling Jonathan Ross, calling her an effing after he's basically shot her in the face and she was being nice to him. And it really hits you. Yeah. So much so you had to put up a video about it.
Rosenberg
No, it sent me. It sent me. I mean, all of it had sent me. And like, I think the Renee Good thing has been yet another touch point for our country. For sure. Like, this is clearly a. A moment. But when I watched it again and saw that video where she says, I'm not mad at you yet. The, the 50th piece of evidence that she had no interest in harming this man, followed by not only the callousness of this coward calling this woman and this mother the effing B word after he shot her, but the idea that you wouldn't even be in shock. I know you wouldn't even say oh my God or oh, no or oh, f. The fact that you just, you know, like, it's either like he's done this before. He's wanted to do this before. There was just zero regret whatsoever. I. Yeah, Ebro, it completely and utterly sent me. I, I just. Yeah, it's. It's just insane.
Laura Styles
I don't know if you saw also the videos that I, I had to stop after a while because it literally makes my blood boil. People had left flowers and candles. I don't know if you saw the video of the ICE agents just kicking it, just kicking it and just making fun of it and just like antagonizing other people who were there just trying to light some candles and put flowers down.
Ebro
Well, and so, and so, boom. I know, listen. And we said it last week. You know, I'm not trying to. This is, this is not. I'm not trying to get you any, Any more blood in the water for you, Rosenberg. That's not what I'm trying to do here. I appreciate that, but the reason I was so vehemently opposed to Stephen A. Smith's stance is because he's not a legal professional, he's not a political professional, and he rushed out the door in defense of someone who had just killed a woman, just like the White House did, just like J.D. vance did, just like all the right wing pundits did. They rushed out the door to try to create a narrative around rap, around Renee Good's murder. And Around Jonathan Ross, this murderer, before we had seen what we knew was that the police code does not allow you to shoot a moving car. Everyone knew that off top.
Laura Styles
And how many police officers are speaking out?
Ebro
Many.
Laura Styles
Yes.
Ebro
And so that's what I talk about when I'm talking about doing the dance. It means you got a memo. And they was like, here, rush out here and toe the line or soft shoe it. I mean, shoot this on our behalf.
Rosenberg
I, I don't believe that a memo was sent that said that I'm not literal.
Ebro
I'm not being literal. I'm not being.
Rosenberg
Got it. It's hard sometimes. You got to be clear. Gotta be clear.
Ebro
I'm not being literal. I'm not being literal. But that's why I brought that up. Because now that we've all seen all of the different details of this murder. Right.
Rosenberg
The other.
Ebro
Here's the other piece about ICE agents. It's now coming out that many of them are getting these jobs without passing background checks.
Rosenberg
Yes.
Laura Styles
Proper training with.
Ebro
Without having. With having criminal backgrounds.
Laura Styles
They're just grabbing anybody, bro.
Rosenberg
But I saw a thing yesterday. Let me see if I can find crazy. I saw a thing yesterday. And again, there's so many videos moving around that it's very hard to like. I don't believe in taking things as law when you see a video with someone talking to a camera, but here it is. No, I found an article from NBC News. See, because this is what you do, folks, when you see a stupid video online, before you say it out loud to the people watching you, you go, can I find a reputable source? Here is NBC. The ICE officer who killed a Minnesota woman is a war veteran who spent over a decade working for dhs. So here's the thing. Jonathan Ross wasn't some newcomer who jumped off the couch. He's been doing this. In fact, I, I heard. I see if I can find it in this article. The thing that I saw said he had been training people in using force.
Laura Styles
What?
Rosenberg
Meaning if that, if that is true, he's not like, you know, a result of the problem. He's part of the training of the problem.
Ebro
Yeah.
Rosenberg
Ross testified he was also a member of the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force as well as a firearms instructor and field intelligence offer officer. He is the training. This is what they. There are people who want to be like this, and they are like this and they choose to be like.
Ebro
They're training others to be like this and.
Rosenberg
And training others to be like this. I just, I got to a point of it was just another one of those examples. We've had many. You know, George Floyd was obviously a touch point. There have been several of where you just realize people are so. And I know there are people out there who feel that way about us, but they're wrong. There are people out there who have been so warped by the, the, the evil that has pervaded this country that they can't see anything clearly anymore. They. They literally. They didn't see Renee Good as a human being. They saw a left wing lunatic who uses pronouns. They. They don't care. They don't want to see truth. You could not watch that video. Guys, when was the last time you saw a police officer seriously engaging in something in which they. They were in danger and they were holding a cell phone with one hand? Tell me one example. I want a cop to tell me what, say, if one of your fellow officers was in a serious situation where they thought violent danger was in their path and with one hand they were holding a cell phone so they could operate only with the other hand as they stepped in front of. Of the vehicle. Someone tell me that's legitimate procedure. They can't.
Ebro
Can't be it. Can't.
Rosenberg
Can't be.
Ebro
Can't be.
Rosenberg
Can't be.
Ebro
Well, and, and furthermore, I think. Listen, I'm gonna say it as much as I can say it. All of this has been a part of the plan.
Rosenberg
Oh, yeah.
Ebro
Getting us so emotional to this point where people are on the street, where ICE agents are reportedly going door to door, where people have their phones out, everyone's at each other's throat. So that I'm telling you. So they could say it's unsafe. So they can't have the midterm elections.
Laura Styles
Yeah, they want to intend.
Rosenberg
We're getting close.
Laura Styles
Protesters. They don't want people to feel safe. They don't want people out there exercising their voice.
Ebro
Matter of fact, let's go to Philadelphia's district attorney. They had words for ice.
Rosenberg
If any law enforcement agent, any ICE agent is going to come to Philly to commit crimes, then you can get.
Ebro
The F out of here. Because if you do that here.
Rosenberg
I will charge you with those crimes. You will be arrested, you will stand trial, you will be convicted, whether it's in state or federal court, it's my office prosecuting it. That's how the law works. And you will do your time because Donald Trump cannot pardon you for a state court conviction. Do you hear me, ICE agents?
Ebro
Do you hear me, National Guard?
Rosenberg
Do you hear me, military? You're going to jail. If you commit crimes in the city of Philadelphia, you will be accountable. The law applies to all of you. And I know that there are honest, decent, moral law enforcement officers out there by the bushel, including in ice.
Ebro
This is not for you.
Rosenberg
This is for anyone of your colleagues who thinks they are above the law.
Ebro
Listen. Yeah, yeah, and I'll be honest. I'm, I, I, I suspect that now ICE wants to show up to that town. They want these challenges to start. They want this kind of right individual. They want the conflict. How could that, how could I believe anything otherwise? Look, look at this coverage. This guy's name is Zeno Farmer that I follow on Instagram and I've seen multiples of these. I did not see the White House post with this neo Nazi song, but the whites who are opposed to this on the Internet are covering it feverishly. Do we have a Zennio Farmer?
Rosenberg
I want to show you all this post that DHS made on their socials accompanied with this song. And then I want to talk about it with you. This song, we'll have Our Home Again, is a neo Nazi song, a white supremacist shooter. Reference the lyrics to this song after unaliving three black people in Florida and the proud boys have been filmed singing it. If you, for whatever reason, weren't buying that our fed is being run by white supremacists, then this should put that to bed for you. They're not even attempting to hide anything anymore.
Ebro
It's all right out in the open.
Rosenberg
That is where we are. So if you're one of my fellow white people in America, you need to recognize this and you need to stand up against it, because this is what this regime is all about. They will continue down this path until we remove them. This is white supremacy at the most dangerous levels of our government. And everybody needs to recognize that. Anybody that supports that, and you know, we fascist too, do not comply. Well, because there is that thing that's existed now where, like, if you mention white supremacy or overt racism or they're going to do they love Nazis that everyone. There's so many people. Calm down. You're, you're being hysterical. They're blatantly saying, yes, they're not. This isn't being yet. Like this is. This is your own willful ignorance if you choose not to see it. Stephen Miller, who is the biggest voice behind all of this, just listen to him talk. This is what he admires. He is the real deal, an admirer of all things fast chism and white supremacy. And this is what he is who is shaping the. This entire policy so well.
Ebro
And, and, and currently you have the. Elon Musk's on social media and his ilk talking about reverse immigration where they are so concerned about being outnumbered as white people in the United States that a lot of this, you know, ICE behavior is to get brown people out of here, black and brown people out of here.
Rosenberg
It's been amazing to see Elon Musk basically retweeting and supporting every horrible racist thing that he can.
Ebro
That's right.
Laura Styles
Yeah.
Rosenberg
I mean, how is it even legal?
Ebro
So back. Back to that salute. At that, at that. At that meeting that the new. The mainstream media tried to act like it wasn't a Nazi salute. Back to that salute that wasn't a Nazi salute. Now we're here. We have Nazi songs. We're here now, people. Everybody tried to act like it was an awkward hand gesture.
Rosenberg
Remember that? Oh, I do.
Ebro
Even the. Even. Even Jewish organizations are.
Rosenberg
The adl, you mean? No, the adl. Let's stop. Let's not say organizations. It is the same one. The same one that's always the loudest one. The loudest and the wrongest one.
Ebro
Yes, yes, Fair. Awkward hand gesture, huh?
Rosenberg
And how is this legal? Like, the guy controls the platform, so everything that he posts gets a. The most retweets.
Laura Styles
Who's gonna check them?
Rosenberg
Boo.
Ebro
Who check him?
Laura Styles
Who's gonna check him? And for him, it's just my freedom of speech.
Rosenberg
Who's gonna check anybody?
Ebro
And we've been saying it on. On the Ebro Laura Rosenberg show for the last week. And we keep pointing back to the Civil War. We keep pointing back to the rebel flag. The reason I'm doing that was because that was an opportunity for this country to say, these things are illegal. Instead, what we did is we called them freedom of speech. And now that loophole of freedom of speech, which everyone loves. And yes, it is a slippery slope. It's a very slippery slope. Is now blowing up in America's face. That's about all we got on Laura Styles. A deep sigh.
Rosenberg
Well, I don't know. I don't even know. We're so angry. Where else do you go? Like, I don't know. Yeah, I don't know.
Ebro
Like, I don't know.
Rosenberg
I saw the comments on my post and whenever I posted anything, because I was just, like, I was in a real eff it mood, so I would put things up on Twitter, you know, last night I posted January 6th footage, and I'm like, real quick. So, Renee, good. Deserved what she got. And. But these people in these videos, they all got pardoned. They're good, right?
Ebro
So you're active. You're active out here. Yeah. You're kicking the hornets nest.
Laura Styles
But then he goes into the worst cesspool to post these videos when you know all those people are going to be like, yes, Rosenberg, they're justified.
Rosenberg
That action. Well, I will say this. Comments have gotten so. Twitter has become so bad that in a weird way, it stopped affecting me at all. It's all going to be bad. Every. Everything I post is 90% just, you know, shut up, Jew. By the. Don't you love when people prove. When people show that they're not racist or anti Semitic by telling me to shut my Jew mouth. I love that. I always think that's such an effective. I know, but did you see we didn't put this in today?
Ebro
No, I think. I think it's just your Jew mouth. It's not all Jew mouth.
Rosenberg
Oh, oh, oh.
Ebro
So it's not technically anti Semitic.
Rosenberg
No, no, you're right. They're just being specific. We didn't put this in, I don't think. But did you guys watch the Kristi Gnome Jake Tapper exchange?
Laura Styles
Oh, Rosenberg. I saw it. I saw it.
Ebro
Load that up. I need to see it. Load it up.
Rosenberg
Listen, I'm no huge Jake Tapper fan, but he tries to hold his ground again, like he did with Stephen Miller. He tries to hold his ground with Kristi Noem and push her on the. On her defense of what happened to Renee. Good. And he's just like, trying to point out the facts. And yo, she will just lie.
Ebro
Not interested in the facts.
Rosenberg
Lie right to your face. He brings up January 6th and he's like, yeah, but the Donald Trump pardoned. He. He's like. He showed her the videos. He said, I'd like to show you some videos. And he showed Kristi Noem that video of. Remember the cop when they had him jammed in the door? And. Ah, ah. Screaming for his life. And he's like, so. So real quick, these people, these exact people were pardoned by the president. So can you explain? And she's just like, every situation on the ground is different. Mm.
Laura Styles
She had. She has this blank stare with her rehearsed talking points.
Ebro
Well, that's it, Laura. You know, I don't wanna. I don't want a body shame. Is this considered body shaming when you talk about plastic surgery? But the stare. She bought the stare, the look, the whole face, you know, her whole face is different. She changed her Whole face.
Rosenberg
Mar a Lago face is what you're saying.
Ebro
Yo, the fact that that's a thing is bananas to me. Is everyone familiar with this? Is this a normal.
Rosenberg
I think we talked. We talked about it last week, didn't we?
Laura Styles
Yeah, it's a look. It's a certain look that they all have. They, they all opt for specific cosmetic procedures to make them look that way.
Ebro
What I'm trying to understand here, Laura, help me out. Help me out. Maybe Rosenberg.
Laura Styles
I'm trying to understand, too. No, no, go ahead.
Ebro
So is the idea that this Mar a Lago face, I'm gonna get plastic surgery to look a certain way so that I could be accepted in or so that I could turn the men on or so that I'm considered attractive to the people who hang out at Mar A Lago. Is that what we're saying?
Rosenberg
I guess.
Laura Styles
I think it's all of the above. Certain people tend to like. And this, I've seen this before. Like certain hairstyles, certain cosmetic procedures, like the overfilled lips or the frozen Botox eyes where they can't really. They, they barely can move their eyebrows. Right. But it's like a trend. It's. It literally is a trend. And they want to all kind of look the same. That's what they consider beautiful or that's what those men consider beautiful. So they all go and get that, the overly tanned orange. You know what I mean?
Ebro
Nah, it's crazy shade.
Rosenberg
Last night there wasn't a, like, no, I can't say that there was a bunch of little stuff at the Golden Globes. It wasn't the entire show, but there was its share. Very curious about whether there would be a shots because the show is on cbs. And as we know, Barry Weiss, who took over CBS News is a like, her entire life is designed by extreme Zionism. She's a crazy person on that subject. That has led to her becoming a full Trump puppet. That has led to CBS News cutting off stories, not showing us stuff on 60 Minutes that makes the Trump administration look bad. And anyways, Nikki Glaser, the host, did get a moment in here. Let's. This is Nikki Glaser last night.
Laura Styles
And the award for most editing goes to CBS News. Yes, CBS News, America's newest place to CBS News.
Ebro
Yeah, I like it. Well, and then there was on. Do we have the Mark Ruffalo on.
Rosenberg
The Mark Ruffalo on the red carpet.
Ebro
On the red carpet moment, which will, you know, look, Mark, in my opinion, has been doing great work around this for you Know, and being vocal around world events, Gaza and other things.
Rosenberg
You want to know how, you want to know how? We don't have that in there. Eber. You want to. How far Mark Ruffalo is into it. Mark Ruffalo emails my dad like every.
Ebro
Two weeks after an M say word.
Rosenberg
Oh, yeah, no Mark Ruffalo. He's. He's reading the MJ report.
Ebro
He's in.
Laura Styles
Wow.
Ebro
Substack, man. Shout out to dad. Substack.
Rosenberg
Look up MJ Rosenberg on substack. Mj. I'm see if you just, I think you just Google it. Mj.
Ebro
And then you need to do the history on MJ Rosenberg because Rosenberg's dad's been, you know, supporting Palestinians for how many years in his articles?
Rosenberg
Well, he's really come around. He's really been that sort of on that vibe for like 22 years, something like that. It was early 2000s. It was when. It was when it was when the peace talks really failed in, in the early 2000s that he got aggressive. You know, he'd been moving that direction for a long time. But my dad was a hardcore Zionist in like 1968.
Ebro
Right.
Rosenberg
And then just started moving. Yeah, he was a believer.
Laura Styles
Right.
Rosenberg
And then, you know, like patriots, like most patriots, eventually you go, what the hell is going on here?
Ebro
Yeah, but we're doing it in the United States. There are. And there are definitely. Look, contrary to what you may see in. On your timeline, there are tons of people who live in Israel. Hundreds of thousands, millions. They were ready to convict Netanyahu before this last chapter, before October 7th.
Rosenberg
Oh, yeah, it was the, that battle back and forth because he was trying to take away the power from the Supreme Court.
Ebro
They wanted to convict him. And now we're here.
Rosenberg
So yeah, Ruffalo. Ruffalo's been on it. He's been on it. But I just sent. I don't know if you have it yet. Speaking of people who are terrible in Israel, I sent Bascom, Wanda Sykes. I didn't see this last night on stage. Took a shot at Bill Maher and I am so here for this.
Ebro
So we haven't seen this yet.
Rosenberg
No, I haven't seen it yet. But Bill Maher has been basically an open islamophobe for like 20 some years.
Ebro
Well, and, and mind you, and mind you wasn't. Didn't Bill Maher put out like an anti religious movie at a certain point?
Rosenberg
He put out a movie called religious. And I remember seeing that movie as a kid. Not a kid, a 25, 24 year old whatever it was. And I remember at the time being like, why does he say nothing about Judaism in this movie as a Jewish person? I was like, it's, he makes fun of Christianity and Islam a lot. There's like no good Judaism humor in here. I was, that's what I was here for. I'm like, if you're a person of the group that you want to see it, make fun of your ridiculous religion. Because I got bad news for you. I got bad news for you religious people of all your religion, of every religion, which, no matter which it is, there's some ridiculous.
Ebro
Oh man, there's a joke in there.
Laura Styles
Always, always, always.
Rosenberg
There's some ridiculous is in your teachings, folks. But I'm only addressing that to Jews, Muslims, Christians and all other religions. So Alice was like, why? And then like, you know, he's a non practicing Jew. I even recently saw him say in one of his dumb conversations where he's being pro Israel and doing the same argument he makes to everyone, well, if you were to live in the Middle east, where would you live? Trying to imply that every single place in, throughout the Middle east, you'd just be shot for walking down the street. I saw him say in that conversation, he's like, I mean, I'm not Jewish. So like, he doesn't even identify as Jewish. I know he is. I believe his mother is Jewish. But when speaking about it, like, he doesn't consider himself Jewish.
Ebro
Right?
Rosenberg
He's just a terrible person. I don't understand this guy. So I, I, hopefully we'll be able to pull it up here.
Ebro
It should be noted this, this program's been calling Bill Maher a terrible person even before this. I, I just want, before he went to the White House, before he went to the White. I just want to point out we are 10 years, 10 years into telling all of you that this Trump thing was a terrible idea. Ten years, ten years into telling you that all of this Trump, Putin, all of this Netanyahu stuff is white supremacists. They are white supremacists. We've been telling you this, we've been saying it over. And people thought I was being inflammatory. People thought I was being, I was out of control, I was losing my mind. I, I, I need to stick to music, yada, yada, yada.
Rosenberg
Well, Ebro, we didn't brand it well enough. The thing you have to do is.
Ebro
Oh, we didn't put, when you get.
Rosenberg
Interested in something, you have to brand it and make it your thing. And also you're not willing to Go out and, like, do, like, all the appearances. So you were. You weren't selected to be the black guy who will speak on everything. If you had become the black guy who speaks for all black people because some white person said, I like this guy. He should speak for all of them, then we'd be hot out here. But you didn't do that. And they're enough whites doing it. So what am I gonna do?
Ebro
Well, now we got Wanda. We got Wanda Sykes.
Rosenberg
Laura.
Ebro
Laura.
Laura Styles
Yes, yes. Let's check that out.
Rosenberg
Let's do it.
Laura Styles
Bill Maher, you give us so much.
Rosenberg
But I would love a little less.
Laura Styles
Just try less.
Rosenberg
It's small, but did you see his. His face of discomfort? That's a room of him in front of all his peers. Like, the jokes like that. He already say. Recently, I saw him getting interviewed. A clip was moving around saying, have you lost any friends? And he was like, very sheepishly was like, Larry David. He was like other. Really? He was like, he doesn't speak to me.
Ebro
Larry David's not a. An Israeli psycho. He's not being a. Correct about the Israeli government.
Rosenberg
Well, yeah. First of all. First of all, Larry's on the right side of the Israel issue. Second of all, Larry wrote an op ed when. When. When Bill Maher went to go meet with Trump. Go look this up if you haven't ever read it. When Bill Maher had his meal with Trump and came back on TV going, well, you know, in person, he's really nice. Larry wrote a farcical editorial about his dinner with Hitler.
Laura Styles
I gotta look this up.
Rosenberg
And you have to understand it's fully in character. And he's just talking about how he went to go see the Fuhrer and he does the whole. It's just incredible. And so he just completely roasted him. And there are. It's just nice to see there are.
Ebro
Good people, by the way. And it's. So this. And this just proves my point about doing the dance for the bag, because how much has this helped Bill Maher have access to more capital? I guarantee you it has.
Rosenberg
I guess that's it. I mean, I. Part of me with Bill Maher just feels like when I watch him, he's just an old sellout. Like, this is what an old sellout looks like.
Ebro
I think it's money. I always think. But that's.
Rosenberg
No, you do.
Ebro
I always think it's money.
Rosenberg
Right. And I'm not saying. I think the truth is probably in the middle between us. Like, sometimes it's money, sometimes it's just people's actual natural way.
Ebro
That's where we were. That's where we landed on the Stephen A. Debate.
Rosenberg
Yeah. Yeah. I, I, I tend to think people often are who they are, whereas you tend to think, nah, someone had to be paying them. I didn't. I think a lot of people who made the MAGA grift, I think a lot of them, it wasn't money. It was a deeper thing.
Laura Styles
Thank you. Thank you. I agree with you, Rosenberg. Although I do believe there's money circulating around it and. Yes, but not everyone is getting paid, guys. Some people genuinely believe this and support it, and this is just who they are.
Rosenberg
Or it tapped into something, like, inside them.
Ebro
Right. I guess the reason I land on the money is because I know they see, I know they see how bad this is. But you've decided to step out and align. You don't have to step out in a line. You can lay back, but you've stepped out and aligned.
Rosenberg
Oh, in some cases beyond the line.
Ebro
It's like, and so either you need, you need this administration's help in some way. Right. Like you have some criminal ish going on and you could pay to have access to the president. That's a thing right now.
Rosenberg
Right.
Ebro
Or it's benefiting you because why would you step out and go so hard?
Rosenberg
Well, how about this? Okay, so, for example, and Ebro, I think you should re, I think you should leave the room and come right back because you're, you're frozen. It's a perfect frozen photo of you. Oh, it looks like it works. But, and, and by the way, for everyone in the comments who's now screaming about, like, this is why you guys need to be together and we have plans, and the plans aren't far off, so calm down.
Laura Styles
It takes time, guys, to get a place together.
Rosenberg
There's a place getting put together in which we are, we're not going to be together every show, but a lot of shows we're going to be together. So everyone who's in that zone is being built, Please. But no, Laura, I think there are some people out there where it tapped into something deep in them, and they haven't liked the way they've been received on the left, whether that be, you know, just black. Twitter doesn't like them, social media doesn't like them. And so they think, you know what? F those people, maybe I'd be better off over here. So their grift isn't as overt as Ebro might be saying, like, about cash. The grift is about acceptance the grift is about people liking their posts.
Laura Styles
There's levels to it. There's levels to it, and then there's some who have always been quietly racist or Islamophobic or just looking for that one thing, to your point, that one thing where it's like, I can't be the only one that look at them. Like, I know a person that I always saw, like her talking about the most stereotypic Islamic, like, just like, always pulling up extremism, right? Look at them. Look at them. I'm like, do you know that there's extremism in every religion, in everyone? Remember we were just talking about, like, that crazy Jewish cult because it's a cult that's in Guatemala that has been kicked out of, like, Israel and America and everyone because they're so psychotic. And then look at Christianity, look at Catholicism. How many cults have existed under the name of Jesus? You know what I mean?
Rosenberg
Listen, listen. I know someone. I know someone who ran into. This is back to Bill Maher again. I know someone who ran into Bill Maher once and brought up religion, and he basically immediately, in casual conversation, admitted to being an Islamophobe. Now, that's alleged. That's alleged. I can't say that's a fact. That's alleged. But if you watch his program, he does not hide the fact that he thinks the root of Islam is evil. It's like he took all propaganda that came post 911 when a very evil thing was done in the name of Islam, and he allowed that in his mind to define what Islam is as a religion. And it's lazy and it's ignorant and it's hateful, and he's been doing it forever. And it does nothing to benefit anyone. We can call out extremism of all groups without having to be. It's just the same as any bigotry. It's just the same as anything defining an entire group by the most extreme, worst people in that group.
Laura Styles
That's right.
Ebro
Did we get to the Mark Ruffalo audio last night on the.
Rosenberg
Fire it up.
Ebro
Go ahead, Mark.
Rosenberg
What's the pin for? Renee? Nicole Good, who is murdered. We have a vice president is lying about what's happening. We have a. We're in the middle of a war with Venezuela that we illegally invaded. He's telling the world that international law doesn't matter to him. The only thing that matters to him is his own morality. But the guy is a convicted felon or convicted rapist. He's a pedophile. He's the Worst human being. If we're relying on this guy's morality for the most powerful country in the world, then we're all in a lot of trouble. So this is for her. This is for the people in the United States who are terrorized and scared today. I know I'm one of them. I love this country, and what I'm seeing here happening is not America. Mark, why do you feel that this platform is still useful to spread a message like this? Listen, I want to pretend like this. I want to be here to celebrate, and I am here to celebrate, and I'm proud to have a Golden Globe nomination. But also, this is not normal anymore. And so I don't know how I. How I could be quiet. And I'm feeling a little sick, so it's hard to BS right now.
Laura Styles
So he's like, this is the platform I got. So.
Ebro
By the way, I thought we were gonna play the clip when he was on Entertainment Tonight.
Rosenberg
Now this is better clip.
Laura Styles
Oh, no, no. This one's good.
Rosenberg
Yeah. I thought the entertainment's the night one, too. Ebro. I like this one. That one was even, like, harsher. Although I. Yo, my man. You know, my man. You know Entertainment Tonight. That guy. What's that guy's name? He's been on for a long time now. He's been doing a lot. And he comes up or Access Hollywood, whichever one it is. And he's like, hey, guys, so how are you have it here to have a good time? I mean, how excited? Have drink and sit back and relax. And they're like, renee, good is dead. And my man just keeps trying to come up to people to be like, so, I mean, come on. We gonna have a good time tonight or what? How about one battle after another? Am I right? And like, Kevin Frazier. Our country is going to hell. And Kevin Frazier, totally made.
Ebro
But now when he was with Mark Ruffalo, I gotta shout out Kevin Frazier.
Rosenberg
Because he rolled with him. Oh, he rolled.
Ebro
Listen, listen. He's got to do the dance. That's the job he signed up for.
Rosenberg
Here you go to doing the dance. I didn't even say doing the dance.
Ebro
He's just doing his job, which is a dance. He's got to get on a red carpet and make people all happy and. And even when they're not. That's the dance. It's part of the dance. It's not a. I'm not trying to shade him. I just want to acknowledge that we all have to do these things and act like everything's hunky. Dory sometimes when it's not, man, it's not a diss. But he also talked about being from the Twin Cities with Mark.
Rosenberg
Yeah, he did. No, he. No, he rolled with it. I'm not saying he didn't roll with it. I'm just saying it's funny that each and every time it's always under the guise of like, here we go, happy talk. And half the time people are like, hey, I want to talk about something.
Ebro
It. Shane Sweet, my G.
Rosenberg
I want to give Kevin Frazier props. They did a weird thing last night. They tried something different where like, after each award win, Kevin Frazier and some other guy who was super awkward would do, like, commentary. In the moment between the win, I watched.
Ebro
So I watched the early part of the Golden Globes and I heard them trying to talk in between the announcement and the person grabbing the award.
Rosenberg
Correct. In that, like, 30 seconds, they would do like a little commentary. It was actually an sort of interesting new approach. But the dude he was with was, oh, my God, the biggest cornball. Like, it just. He would. It's like he had cheesy written down lines like hokey one liners for each thing. Kevin Frazier does his thing, man. Shout out to Kevin Frazier.
Ebro
Shout out to Kevin Frazier. Last night, a lot went on. Is this what you're running through in the rundown today, Laura style?
Laura Styles
No, I have others. So we can talk about this now and then I'll bring us more entertainment stuff in the rundown.
Ebro
Well, let's. Let's look at our girl, Teyana Taylor, since we're talking about Golden Globes. That's right. The winner of best supporting actor.
Laura Styles
So happy. To my brown sisters and little brown girls watching tonight, our softness is not a liability. Our death is not. Death is not too much. Our light does not need permission to shine. We belong in every room we walk into. Our voices matter and our dreams deserve space. Thank you so much, everybody. Thank you.
Rosenberg
Nah, man, I couldn't believe it. I was. I was. I sat there and I was like, it would be so cool if Tiana Taylor won. And I was like, I didn't expect it. And then when you saw her face, react to her name, yo, she could not believe it.
Laura Styles
This is so. It's. She well deserved, man.
Ebro
Now, how does this work? Laura Styles? Is this the beginning of the award since season the Golden Globes, where it's like, you know, we're gonna keep. I mean, now it's what's next?
Rosenberg
It's the middle. It's the. This is the middle.
Ebro
So what happens Is it the, the Oscars aren't next, right? Is it like choice? We saw Emmys, didn't we? To see the Emmys?
Rosenberg
Yes, yes. But there's, there's the baftas in England next week. There's sag, AFTRA Awards. There's a lot that lead up to the Oscars which haven't even. I don't think the nominations are even out for the Oscars, so they're still a couple of months away.
Laura Styles
Yeah, there was a lot of. I was also happy for the, the young ladies from K Pop Demon Hunters, ej, Audrey, Nuna and Ray. I mean, because if you know their story, first of all, if you're a parent, you've been like, you've been playing K Pop Demon Hunters music non stop, right?
Ebro
I banned it in the house.
Laura Styles
But just like, you know, their story is so dope. They were just like rejected from the whole K Pop scene. You know, they grew up being, you know, told that this is what they needed to do. So they went through it, got rejected, and look at them now, bro. Accepting their Golden Globes on.
Rosenberg
Yeah, but Laura, taking it as something positive, I'll flip it and make it something negative. What do you mean the, the K Pop Demon Hunters, the podcast award, as much as I love the Golden Globes, they also honor so much that it gets to be unserious.
Ebro
Like, you didn't like the podcast award? I saw that one.
Rosenberg
The podcast, yo, they were mocking it on the show.
Ebro
Like, and then when Amy Poehler got received her award, that was.
Rosenberg
Yo. Her whole thing was mocking it. Like, she was basically. She basically was embarrassed that this is how she won a Golden Globe was for this nonsense.
Ebro
And they put the podcast. Well, no, no, the podcasts were in there with like npr. And so she had to say. Yeah, she had to acknowledge the fact that, like, we're just celebrities, you know, talking, just yapping. But there's actual journalists who are doing podcasts that are very important. She did it in an amazing way.
Rosenberg
Yeah, she did it as a joke. But no, like, I think what does.
Laura Styles
It have to do with K Pop Demon Hunters? They won for best animated feature film and best original song.
Rosenberg
But they just. That the Golden Globes just put whatever's hot, they put it on the stage. That's all I'm saying. Like, I have no problem with them winning an award. Generally speaking, though, at Big Movie. I'm sorry, Laura. It's on a serious show.
Laura Styles
K Pop Demon doesn't matter. It's humongous.
Rosenberg
Humongous, isn't what these awards used to be, used to be that you show the most, like, critically important stuff. That's. Listen, I don't. I don't respect the Oscars. Nominating 10 films that include, like, cartoons and silly comedies is not for me. I liked when it was five movies that were, like, supposed to be good movies. Granted, they were usually all boring and I wouldn't want to see any of them, but that's what it was. So.
Ebro
No, but there is. But you can acknowledge, right, whether you watch the thing or think the thing is a serious thing, there is art tied to it, right? There is art and entertainment tied to it. Like, we're not saying that the people who put together K Pop Demon Hunters or created these podcasts are. Aren't deserving of acknowledging.
Rosenberg
It's frankly cool, actually, stepping aside from myself. It is cool that on a big stage, things that do really well can get acknowledgment, even if they're not serious. That that's totally fine. It's just. Laura, my only point is, as someone who didn't watch it, they just made it like the theme of the night it came out.
Ebro
No, but I was like, okay, no, but Rosenberg. No, but Rosenberg. It was that big, I believe. And. And it was musically big. It was. It was the movie. Like, the songs themselves were big. The movie was big. Like, separate in its own thing.
Rosenberg
So why'd you ban it from your house? He. Bro, let's stop. Let's.
Ebro
Because I don't think it's good because I watch. I've watched anime and. And I've also. There is some K pop that I think is dope music.
Laura Styles
Okay.
Ebro
There's a couple of songs in the K pop Demon Hunters thing that are okay songs. I sat down and watched it with Issa, okay? And I just said, it's not a good movie. This is just not a good movie.
Laura Styles
And what did Issa think?
Ebro
She was like, it's good. My friends like it. I see, ah, see you falling. You're falling. You're doing it.
Rosenberg
People just all said they had to like you.
Ebro
The dance. Trying to be in within crowd.
Rosenberg
And you're trying to say, wait, hit the dance, hit the dance. I'm about to give a solo shot.
Ebro
Hold up.
Rosenberg
Oh, it doesn't work that way.
Ebro
You're doing the dance. You're shoulder shimming in the beat with the. In craft you to be accepted. You want to be at the cool table. You're doing the dates.
Laura Styles
Or maybe they just really like the movie.
Ebro
Nah, bro, I like the song. No, you don't.
Laura Styles
Acceptance, Ebro.
Rosenberg
It's over. It's over. I can no longer use that song for Laura's music. That song is now exclusive to. When Ebro says someone's doing the dance, it's exclusive. You're doing the dance once they're doing the dance. But. So. No, but I do.
Ebro
Once again, I say that. I say that because we all do it. I'm not trying to be shady. When I say somebody doing the dance. I may not like the reason why you're doing the dance, but I'm not. That's your. That's your choice. We all have to. And. And by the way, as humans, you know what I'm saying? It's kind of like the expression winning Rome. No, no. The Romans was out here wiling. All right, let's be honest. When you look at wilding, you ain't winning. Don't win in Rome. Don't. How about that?
Rosenberg
I have another complaint. I have another complaint about the Golden Globes. Yes. I think it's corny that. Because the Golden Globes are every year and they honor television every year, which I love that there's another place besides the Emmys to honor television. I hate when they give people the award year after year after year. Gene Smart won again for Hacks. I love Hacks. I love. I still. I'm still in. It's a great show. She doesn't need to win every single. You could tell by this point. She's like, whatever.
Laura Styles
All right, man. I already have all these speeches. I gave you everything I got. Thank you.
Rosenberg
Yeah. I mean, listen, there are other people.
Ebro
This wasn't a cross. I'm not. I haven't watched Hacks. I didn't watch the whole goal.
Rosenberg
No, this just means you don't pay attention to Laura. Whenever Laura covers the Golden Globes every year, she'll say, X Show 1. Oh, you're right.
Ebro
I tune out. Usually I tune out of the Golden Globes.
Laura Styles
I do skip a lot of things to the things that we do know. I care about. So sometimes I just kind of go to.
Rosenberg
But the bear. The Bear. Every year.
Laura Styles
Yeah.
Rosenberg
Art for hacks every year.
Ebro
So I haven't watched the Bear, but I do. I do remember the argument, and I gotta bring it back up. Laura's mad at the bear because it got nominated as a comedy, and she thinks it's a serious show.
Rosenberg
Everyone, that's. That's not just Laura. That's the. The joke about the bear is, why is it a comedy? It's not funny.
Ebro
Right, but it's good, though.
Laura Styles
You need to watch it. You didn't. You didn't like the show?
Rosenberg
Laura, I've told you this 18. Yo. Just as Ebert doesn't listen to Laura, Laura doesn't listen to me.
Laura Styles
I think you'll like it.
Ebro
I will have to be triggered, though.
Laura Styles
By crazy family dynamic. You need a little, like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Ebro
Tehran is back on Apple tv. Plus, I'm busy.
Laura Styles
Oh, God.
Rosenberg
Thank you, Griffin. Griff remembers.
Laura Styles
Watch the studio.
Rosenberg
Thank you. Griff remembers. Rosenberg couldn't stay with it. I did a whole rant.
Ebro
He did.
Rosenberg
I did a. Congratulations. You played yourself. Any. Any show where you're where you have to tell me. Just fight and stay with it. I, I, I cannot have enough time.
Ebro
But you did do that with severance.
Rosenberg
And I regret it. I. Severance season two sucked. I watched five minutes and got out. Sorry, Apple. That, that show.
Ebro
Apologizing to Apple. I think they did pretty good with it without you.
Rosenberg
Yeah, they did all right. But. But I. Severin, season two, how did you. At the end of season one, go? Okay, now we're gonna really get into what's going on. We're outside of the world, and we're gonna show you everything. And then Ebro Season two, Episode one bailed on it. We're back inside. I don't want to go back inside.
Ebro
Bailed on.
Rosenberg
Nah, severance is boring. I'm tired. Fine. You got. You know what, guys? You're smarter than me. Have your severance. Okay. I can't tell y'. All. Follow it.
Ebro
Listen, if you want a good show, especially with everything going on in Iran right now, Tehran is a good show.
Rosenberg
I've heard Tehran is great. How many seasons are there of Tehran?
Ebro
This is the third season, and they've. And they've. And. And the second season ended in 2022.
Rosenberg
Oh, it's been a minute.
Laura Styles
Oh, wow. Okay.
Rosenberg
Okay. But you could.
Ebro
You could dive into three seasons on that. We have. We have things we got to get to here on the Ebro Laura Rosenberg show. We don't have intro music for the rundown, though. It's been stolen by me doing the dance, so. Yeah. With something else. Rosenberg.
Rosenberg
Yeah.
Laura Styles
Hold on.
Rosenberg
You know what? I got you. I got you. Hold on. Okay, give me a second. Give me just a split second. They have some stuff here.
Laura Styles
All right.
Rosenberg
By the way, I added some drops here for everybody at some point, so we'll. We'll get to some drops, too. Yes. This works for an intro song. Here we go. The rundown.
Ebro
It's Time for the rundown with Laura Styles on the Ebro Laura Rosenberg show.
Rosenberg
Hopefully something drops in here.
Laura Styles
No, no.
Ebro
Let's see. Yeah, Laura, what you got today?
Laura Styles
All right, man, I'll take it. Now. I don't know if you guys read but. And saw, but Trump has answered Diddy's request for a pardon.
Ebro
Okay.
Laura Styles
It's a big. Oh, n. Wait. He. He officially stated that he is not considering a.
Rosenberg
You played yourself for Diddy.
Laura Styles
Yes, there's. They submitted a formal request for clemency via personal letter. And in an interview with the New York Times, Trump confirmed that he received the letter, but said he will not be granting the request. Quest. He said that his relationship with. With Diddy sort of busted up, quote, unquote, after, you know, he said some nasty stuff about him and was very hostile towards him when he ran for politics.
Rosenberg
Yo, wait, so wait, wait, wait, wait.
Ebro
Hold on. Wait.
Rosenberg
He openly said, I can't do it because I don't like him anymore.
Ebro
Yes.
Rosenberg
Congratulations.
Ebro
You played yourself. And he was mean to me.
Laura Styles
It was nasty. So, yeah, that is crazy.
Rosenberg
Yeah, I listen. I listened to some of that New York Times interview. They made an episode of the Daily.
Laura Styles
Oh, I gotta listen.
Rosenberg
He sat with them for, like, two hours, and they. They have clips of it. They did like an hour of clips of it on the Daily.
Ebro
It's pretty good question. Was he slurping his spit while he was talking?
Rosenberg
Not that they may have edited out that I don't know you're referring to, but I didn't notice any of that.
Ebro
I saw clips from him sitting down with some reporters. I don't know if it was the New York Times. There was a video, and he was going. Which you know. You know, I'm following doctors, multiple now at this point on my algorithm, who claim that his dementia is setting in so bad and the way dementia, the brain affects your ability to swallow your spit. And that's. They're saying his dementia is getting worse.
Rosenberg
Yeah, I mean, look, you know. You know what it sounds like. Here we are.
Ebro
It's blood in the water. Talk to him. So now you gotta bring the beat back. You gotta bring the beat back.
Laura Styles
All right.
Ebro

Ebro
When they go low, Laura goes lower in the low. Down.
Rosenberg
That's one bringing you with me.
Laura Styles
All right, man. I don't know if you guys saw this drama, but, bro, I was like, offset, what are you doing? Did you see the Offset and Selena Powell drama?
Ebro
Now, I don't know who Selena Powell is, but I did see him laying in the bed with someone. Is that the same thing?
Laura Styles
Yes, Ebro. Selena Offset is. Oh, she's so gross. She is known for, like, sleeping with all these people and exposing them. What was that? Woman? Remember duringar? No, it was. It was another one. There was another one. And I hope somebody in the chat reminds me of her name. But she got famous for, like, exposing men. Yeah, but she's. Yo, she's sloppy and she's gross, and I just don't understand why celebrities continue to deal with her. You know, what she's gonna do.
Ebro
Maybe they want. Maybe they want it. Maybe this is like some sort of not voyeurism. What's the other thing where you want to have sex in public and you want to kind of like.
Laura Styles
I don't know. I don't know. But yes. So Selena Powell shared a video of Offset sleeping next to her, you know, hinting that they had a sexual encounter. Right. And she's, like, filming him while he's passed out. All right, but now. Yes, yes, yes. Thank you, chat. Thank you. So now she went on this podcast talking about, you know, that she shared a face time recording. Okay. And where Offset is basically saying that he's trying to threaten, like, Stefan threaten to beat him and shoot him in the knee. Bro, it is. Listen, watch the video really quickly.
Rosenberg
You have this.
Laura Styles
Yes. Watch this.
Rosenberg
If I catch buddy and I can.

Catch him, it's gonna be bad. So I think she. Man, beat, strip, shot in the knee, all type.
Rosenberg
See, I wasn't on his ass.
Laura Styles
He told me that he was gonna get he want. When you see Stefan, he's going to shoot him in his knee and strip.
Ebro
Him and rob him.
Laura Styles
Bro, bro, what are we doing? And then, you know, there was also some allegations that she claimed that Stefan Diggs was unable to, like, sign a son's birth certificate at the hospital because Cardi B still legally married to Offset, which angered Stefan. And now right now, she's claiming that Offset has been harassing and threatening her daily because he owes her $15,000, which she claims he gambled away. And then she went on Instagram and says, if anything happens to me, Offset did it.
Ebro
No, this is. Wow. This is wow.
Rosenberg
This lady said that?
Laura Styles
Yes. Yes.
Ebro
Nah, bro.
Rosenberg
There's so many people. You can land.
Laura Styles
That's what I'm saying. Rosenberg.
Rosenberg
Why? Yo, we live in the Instagram era, dude. You could just go. You could find someone.
Ebro
There's so many people.
Rosenberg
You have to go with a known.
Ebro
Well, so that's why. That's why I thought it was like a fetish at first. Like, it's like you. You just want to have sex with. It's almost like a porn star in a way, right? Like, you see, have sex with this person. I want to have sex with this person. Because this person just is. You know, it's like an adventure.
Rosenberg
Makes a lot more sense.
Ebro
Facts. But I was just liking it.
Rosenberg
I hear. I hear you.
Ebro
It's like a ride at a. It's like a ride at an amusement park. You know what I'm saying? It looks interesting. Somebody can get off the ride and tell you, oh, that was fun. And you want to be like, oh, I'm doing it.
Rosenberg
The further you go, keep going, but.
Laura Styles
Let'S see what happens with you.
Ebro
Yeah, I threw up, but let me try. I got. I got the clap, but I'm going in. You know what I'm saying?
Rosenberg
Let me see if I can get.

Ebro
I gotta. You know what I'm saying?
Rosenberg

Rosenberg
Nah, we're working on it. I have, you know.

Ebro
I just wanna. It should be documented that Rosenberg is worse on the buttons than shiny culture.
Rosenberg

Ebro
Yeah, but you don't even have, like, regular stuff. Ready to go.
Rosenberg
Well, what would be the original? It's time for the group. I don't have, like, that was an intro. We don't. We can't use that in the whole intro.

Ebro
It should be noted. I got great feedback.
Rosenberg
Oh, people liked you.
Ebro
That's what they saying. They could be lying because I just chaotic, but they're saying it.
Rosenberg
If we could just make it through this segment without you calling me out.
Ebro
My name is off limits.
Rosenberg
No. If I can make it through today, it'll be great.
Laura Styles
You're a host to yourself.
Rosenberg
I'm gonna say this about my breathing, though. This thing that I've been dealing with, this lingering thing that I'm hearing many other people have right now.
Ebro
Wait, you're still sick, bro.
Rosenberg
It will not. It came back this weekend.
Laura Styles
I got this nasty, like, I can't stop coughing. It's like my cough and like, my.
Rosenberg
Wife can't stop coughing. This thing came back. Yo, I, I, I started taking antibiotics because I was, I was looking online. In other words, I asked Chachi pt. My doctor prescribed me the antibiotics, okay. Before the holiday. And he said, I'm gonna give this to you in case over the holiday it gets worse and, and you need it. I never took it. And I sort of cleared up.
Ebro
Oh, hit yourself with the button.
Rosenberg
Well, no, he said, just in case, though. He said. He didn't say take it. He said to sort of monitor.
Ebro
Well, that's why I came back. Because you didn't take. You plagued yourself.
Rosenberg
So then when I asked Chat GPT, I said, is it a bad idea for me to take this antibiotic? I was prescribed. I described my situation, and it actually said that if you've been dealing with a nasal thing for a while and it starts to get worse randomly after more than two weeks, it could be bacterial. So I said, you know what? What's the worst that could happen. And I also.
Ebro
It also may be your new apartment. Oh, what do you mean?
Rosenberg
Why?
Laura Styles
There's no. There's no mold in there.
Ebro
A mold test in it.
Rosenberg
Why are you doing this?
Laura Styles
Get a mold test.
Ebro
Because it's an old bit. Isn't that an older building?
Rosenberg
Yes.
Ebro
And isn't it shoddy? Isn't it ran by a shoddy landlord?
Rosenberg
That's how it seems.
Laura Styles
Things are questionable. No, do it. My home girl would not stop getting sick. Rosenberg.
Rosenberg
She.
Laura Styles
She had one of those tests. That joint came up, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing.
Ebro
Yeah, Mold everywhere.
Laura Styles
Mold everywhere. Then she called, like, professionals to come inspect. And they're like, yep, behind your bed. Here, here, here, here, here.
Ebro
Well, and I think those window seals in a lot of those old buildings, you know, water leaks into those things, man.
Rosenberg
How about this? How about this? Mold test kit for home. Seven simple detection tests. Test H vac system, home surfaces, indoor air quality testing, DIY mold detector. It could be delivered today for 14.99.
Laura Styles
Do it. Do it, Pete. Do it, do it. All right, all right. Let's get back to it.
Ebro
All right.
Rosenberg
Give me.
Ebro
Give me a little, you know, give me the. The harp. I need the harp.
Rosenberg
And you have the harp. Again. Breathe in, breathe out.
Laura Styles
All right, who's writing to us, Rosenberg? Who needs us?
Rosenberg
Hopefully it wasn't mold that I just.
Ebro
Oh, no, you just inhaled some focus, OG Gurus.
Rosenberg
I can't express how happy I am that all three of you are still together bringing us a show.
Ebro
Thank you for that sidebar. If we could afford to hire Shawnee and Cast and Juanito, we'd take them too, but we're not there yet.
Rosenberg
In due time. Hopefully. If they. If that's what they. They want, you know what I mean? This evening, while I was rubbing on my boyfriend's back, his phone went off. I reached to hand it to him and saw the name Rose on the screen. Oh, Rosenberg, I'm already hot about this story because I wish my. My wife would rub my back. All I do is rub her back. If I had. If she actually for once rubbed my back and I had the audacity to get a text message from a Rose. Come on. What are you doing, G. All right, here we go. Sorry. Anyways, fast forward. Oh, no. With. We dealt with Rose exactly one year ago, almost to the day. She's a co worker of his. At the time, he told me they were just friends, even though they called each other my love.
Ebro
Nah. Violation.
Rosenberg
Come on, bruh. Hell no. No.
Laura Styles
Nope. All Right. Go ahead.
Rosenberg
He promised that would stop and assured me nothing physical had ever happened. Fast forward to today. They are still in contact. Not only that, but now they communicate through WhatsApp instead of iMessage, which is how I discovered the messages last time. I am in complete shock at the level of disrespect. I am heartbroken. I also fully understand what it will take for me to walk away from the home we've shared for five years. My world feels upside down and I'm struggling with one question. Should I go to their HR and report this? I don't know what the consequences would be, but my feelings clearly weren't considered, so why should I consider their livelihood? Thank you, Ebro. Take it easy on me. I'm just heartbroken. Let me just shoot this down real quick. Unless this is like a supervisor and some intern. Unless there's a power dynamic here.
Laura Styles
That's right.
Rosenberg
They can flirt with each other at work. That's not some sort of. No, you're not. All you're going to do is mess with things you don't need to mess with. And I don't think it'll be affected. So. No. No, I don't think HR is the route here.
Ebro
Well, and. And you. Let's say it does work out the way you want it to work out, where you mess with their livelihood. It's not going to fix your broken heart.
Rosenberg
Nope.
Laura Styles
Yeah. And if you need him to pay anything or do anything, he's not gonna job.
Ebro
So you get hit with this. If that's the case, congratulations. You played yourself. Y' all do live together. So if he ended up losing his income, guess what? You still gotta. And you still got to figure out how to get out of it. I don't know if you guys are homeowners or if you have a lease, but other. Either way, you got to figure out how to get out of it if you want out of this relationship. And that's going to cost some money, so he's gonna need it.
Rosenberg
I. I wish in these situations I knew what the person wanted. Like, what do you want?
Ebro
Do you. She says at the end of the email, she kind of. She touches on it, but she doesn't go all the way there.
Rosenberg
I don't know what the console. Okay. She said, should I go to hr? No. If that's it, the answer is no. HR ain't it.
Ebro
But she also said that she. But she also said something about, I know what it'll take to get out of this relationship.
Rosenberg
She did. She. I fully understand what it will take for me to walk away.
Ebro
So I get clear on that.
Rosenberg
I guess she knows how hard that would be also.
Laura Styles
Yeah. And I wonder if she's ready to take those steps because the he is disrespecting you. This is especially if you guys address this already and it's still continuing and then they move to what's up to be a little bit more incognito. No family.
Ebro
No.
Rosenberg
Now listen, everything is on fire. What I'm going to say here is, is. Is it may not be received well and it may not be guru talk, but I'm throwing out here. I say if you're hope, if you want to find out what the reality is, like what the future could hold, just leave, leave. Let him come home today and find an empty house. Go find. Go, go somewhere, go away. And then let's see what happens.
Ebro
The tough thing here is if her name's on the lease, she's still beholden to paying.
Rosenberg
I don't know, like.
Laura Styles
Right.
Rosenberg
I'm not saying she has to at this moment. Deal with the lease, Go to your mom's house, go to a siblings, go somewhere else for a minute and. And figure out what you want to do. And also watch what your guy does here. Let's see. Let's see what happens.
Ebro
Now. I want to throw this out here. And it's not because I believe this to be true, but I'm gonna throw it out here. Okay. And I'm not saying I don't believe because I don't. I just literally don't know is why I don't believe it.
Rosenberg
Right.
Ebro
There is a world where your guy is smart enough to not take an ish. Where he works, meaning not actually mess with a co worker, not having. There is a world where he absolutely has not had any sort of physical encounter with this. It's all been text flirting at work.
Rosenberg
Does that matter anymore?
Ebro
But. Well, that's what I was going to ask it. Does that matter to you? Because you asked him to stop the texting. He said he would. And he just moved it to a different platform to try to hide it from you because he's still interested in feeling his. His. His male ego, his masculinity is tied to kind of this mischievous behavior.
Rosenberg
And that's sort of the best case scenario.
Ebro
That's the bet. Exactly what I was about to say. And so then now you have to analyze is him just being a mischief, a douchebag, someone who's willing to hide flirty texts. Is that enough to break up?
Laura Styles
Yeah. But I also take into consideration that they, quote, unquote, went through this already. Do you understand what I'm saying? So I am assuming that she attempted to talk this through with him and give him another chance.
Ebro
She did. Yes.
Laura Styles
He re. He, he took that and threw it in the garbage.
Ebro
That's right.
Laura Styles
So he's continuing to disrespect her, to invalidate her feelings, to make her feel like garbage. He does not respect you or the.
Ebro
Relationship enough to have discipline.
Laura Styles
Yeah. So I, I just think he's showing you how he really feels. So to me, it would be, it would have been different for me, Ibrahim, if she didn't try this already. But she did and he didn't stop. So you need to figure out what are, what are the steps for you to figure out your lease, figure out financially how all of this is going to affect you and can you do it? But I think she should burn it down.
Ebro
Keep in mind, she said boyfriend.
Laura Styles
Oh, burn it down, girl. Burn it down.
Ebro
Five year relationship feels like a long time, but we didn't hear kids, we didn't hear marriage. If you have someone in your life that is incapable of being disciplined in the ways you need them to be in your relationship, don't have children with them and don't get into homeownership with them or marriage.
Laura Styles
Yeah, I pray you're just renting an apartment. Therefore you guys can figure out how to either remove his name off the lease or your name off the lease. But whatever you got to do, I think it's time to go. I think you already gave him the chance and it wasn't good enough for him.
Rosenberg
And by the way, my point was, if you just roll out, he's going to show you what he's made of. You know, if he, if, if, if it literally is like his world ended and he comes to you in real and has to come to Jesus where he realizes something and over time you want to see if he's possible of making change. Sure.
Ebro
Dolores, point. You already gave him that opportunity.
Laura Styles
Yeah, yeah.
Rosenberg
But a lot of dudes, they don't. When, when you just, when you just. First of all, she gave him a pass on something that was pretty bad the first time.
Ebro
That's right.
Rosenberg
That weird. You don't know the person they're saying, my love. And you, you basically let me explain to you how dumb men are when you didn't like threaten to leave him off of that. That might have been like, I'm good, I'm good. Take that big a deal.
Ebro
Well, and To Rosenberg's point, you can also do what everyone else is doing out here, giving people extra chances, hoping this works out for the best, you know, I mean, have, have some kids, get married, maybe that'll fix it and then have a realization later on, you know, I mean, that's what everybody else is doing. That's what's hot in these streets, girl.
Laura Styles
Burn it down. I don't know. I say me Laura saying burn it down. You already gave him a chance. You already tried.
Ebro
Look at Rosenberg walk away.
Rosenberg
It's not that. It's that, it's that you know, these situation. I think you're probably right. I think you're probably right. I think especially in this situation. It sounds like he just didn't respect you at all. It's been five years. Y' all don't have kids. That's a big mess up, man. Sorry. I lean towards that and hit him with the button and that's it.
Ebro
Congratulations, you played yourself. The gurus. The original Gurus. The original GurusMail.com. if you have an email you're going through something, the gurus can help you out. How did I do today? I wasn't too chaotic.
Rosenberg
Pretty on point, man.
Ebro
I tried to keep it easy today.
Rosenberg
Good.
Ebro
You did good.
Rosenberg
Yeah, I was impressed by that.
