Sibling Happy Hour: Sips, Laughs & Sibling Shenanigans 🍹😂

[00:00:47] Bruce Anthony: it's the sibling happy hour. I'm here with my sis Jay [00:00:50] Andrea. We're gonna be dilly Dadd in a little bit. Then I'm gonna be telling you a story about siblings that are [00:00:55] fighting each other, and then me and my sister are gonna pick the teams to save [00:01:00] us if we were kidnapped.

But that's enough of the intro. Let's get to the [00:01:05] show.

​

[00:01:13] Bruce Anthony: [00:01:10] What else, sis? [00:01:15] I can't call it. I can't call it. You know something.

[00:01:18] Jay Aundrea: What's that?

[00:01:19] Bruce Anthony: [00:01:20] Winter is coming.

[00:01:22] Jay Aundrea: Not just up there down here too.[00:01:25]

[00:01:25] Bruce Anthony: Okay, so this is what I wanna say to all the people out out there. This is coming out [00:01:30] January the 20. Friday, January the 23rd. We are supposed to get a [00:01:35] snowstorm, a really bad snowstorm, I guess both up here and down [00:01:40] there in Atlanta. Up here. It could be really, really bad. They're saying it could be [00:01:45] 24 inches and ice, which means that we [00:01:50] might lose power.

Snowstorm Panic Sparks Power Outage Survival Anxiety ❄️⚡😬

[00:01:51] Bruce Anthony: Unfortunately, if we lose power. I can't upload any [00:01:55] episodes or anything, so. If you don't see anything, and I'll try my [00:02:00] best to put it on the Instagram and Threads or wherever, TikTok or wherever [00:02:05] we are in the social media to let you guys know that there won't be any shows. But that's [00:02:10] only if power gets knocked out from these snowstorms.

And [00:02:15] I'm hoping the power does not get knocked out because I don't know what to do with myself if I don't have any power[00:02:20]

[00:02:20] Jay Aundrea: Yeah, I mean, I mean, you don't, I, of course I have [00:02:25] puzzles, um, board games. I could read a book. There are a [00:02:30] million things I can do without power. That's just fine. But you, I don't know how you're gonna [00:02:35] survive without electricity. I, I honestly am a little worried for you.

Bruce Confesses He’s Absolutely Useless Without Electricity 📵😂🧠

[00:02:39] Bruce Anthony: for [00:02:40] a dude that reads every day all day long, [00:02:45] I'm not picking up no book. And here's the thing, ladies and [00:02:50] gentlemen, I become obsessed and fixated. So when I [00:02:55] read a book. Nothing else is important except for me finishing that [00:03:00] book. Kind of like me with like a a TV series. If I start binging a [00:03:05] TV series, I may have to wake up early in the morning.

I'm gonna see the next episode, [00:03:10] I'm gonna see the next episode, and so I've gotta read the next chapter. I've gotta read the, I won't stop. That's the reason why I [00:03:15] only read on vacations, because that's a designated time where I can just read all [00:03:20] day.

[00:03:20] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:03:21] Bruce Anthony: So I just read articles and stuff, but I just wanna let the people know I don't know what I'm gonna [00:03:25] do, you know, hopefully.

[00:03:26] Jay Aundrea: of that is electronic. Like you're not reading the [00:03:30] newspaper like you're reading it online.

[00:03:32] Bruce Anthony: Right, right.

[00:03:33] Jay Aundrea: know what you're gonna do.

[00:03:34] Bruce Anthony: Well, I got,[00:03:35]

[00:03:35] Jay Aundrea: conversely, you guys are getting what, like maybe two feet? [00:03:40] We're getting a half inch. a half inch in Atlanta [00:03:45] with ice accumulation like a half inch in Atlanta is [00:03:50] I mean, north Georgia is getting more, but as far as [00:03:55] like City of Atlanta, I mean, that's gonna shut this whole place down. So I'm [00:04:00] going to the grocery store right after this. 'cause I don't have no food.

[00:04:03] Bruce Anthony: It's not coming until Saturday night.[00:04:05]

[00:04:05] Jay Aundrea: Yeah. But everybody is probably

[00:04:08] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Mm-hmm.

[00:04:09] Jay Aundrea: gonna be [00:04:10] crazy Friday,

[00:04:11] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:04:12] Jay Aundrea: so we'll go Thursday. And [00:04:15] I'm saying it's gonna be crazy Thursday and Friday, so I'm gonna go on Wednesday.[00:04:20]

[00:04:21] Bruce Anthony: Uh, just to let you know, I did it the last weekend. Amazon, I, [00:04:25] I'm, I, I did it at your house. Amazon deliveries be working, I got [00:04:30] 18 eggs or a dollar and bought five things or 18 eggs [00:04:35] now.

Six Eggs a Day? Protein Math Turns Into a Full Argument 🍳💪🏽🤣

[00:04:35] Jay Aundrea: Eggs is only good for about two, three weeks.

[00:04:38] Bruce Anthony: But I, I did the [00:04:40] math and that's 18 eggs a week for five weeks. Right. [00:04:45] And that ain't nothing but three breakfasts, so it [00:04:50] worked out.

[00:04:52] Jay Aundrea: you have six eggs and a breakfast. [00:04:55] What?

[00:04:56] Bruce Anthony: Yes, I'm 200 and like 35 [00:05:00] pounds. I mean,

[00:05:00] Jay Aundrea: I eat one egg

[00:05:03] Bruce Anthony: Yes.

[00:05:03] Jay Aundrea: slices of bacon.

[00:05:04] Bruce Anthony: [00:05:05] Right. You don't, you don't need as much protein as I need.

[00:05:08] Jay Aundrea: [00:05:10] Six egg.

[00:05:10] Bruce Anthony: Yes,

[00:05:11] Jay Aundrea: I didn't know you ate that. I didn't know.

[00:05:13] Bruce Anthony: yes. I eat a lot of [00:05:15] protein. You saw how much chicken I eat.

[00:05:18] Jay Aundrea: yeah, you, you, yeah. [00:05:20] You eat

[00:05:20] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. I eat, I eat, I You got to head up Protein, you gotta feed the beast. [00:05:25] Um, so gentlemen, don't, don't be, you [00:05:30] know, upset with us if no episodes come out next week, because up here we're supposed to [00:05:35] get it bad. Not as bad as some other places. They're saying some other places they're gonna get three [00:05:40] inches of ice.

[00:05:42] Jay Aundrea: Yeah. That's crazy.

[00:05:43] Bruce Anthony: It is crazy. They're [00:05:45] saying some people could lose power like Texas did that one time where they, Texas didn't have no power [00:05:50] for like a a year. Texas did.

[00:05:52] Jay Aundrea: it wasn't a year, but it was a [00:05:55] really long time.

[00:05:56] Bruce Anthony: was something close to that.

[00:05:57] Jay Aundrea: they're on that like [00:06:00] grid, that's like, it's the companies that run it, or the state runs it or something. [00:06:05] It is

[00:06:05] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:06:07] Jay Aundrea: and, um, with [00:06:10] their power grid. And I definitely hope that does not happen them again.

[00:06:14] Bruce Anthony: [00:06:15] No, because people died.

[00:06:15] Jay Aundrea: don't think it's gonna, yeah, I don't, I, I'm, I'm hoping the cold weather and [00:06:20] all that, snow and ice does not reach Texas.

[00:06:23] Bruce Anthony: No, it's gonna hit [00:06:25] Texas.

[00:06:25] Jay Aundrea: Oh,

[00:06:26] Bruce Anthony: no, it's gonna hit Texas. Yeah,

[00:06:28] Jay Aundrea: I am praying for, you know, Atlanta will [00:06:30] just be inconvenienced, like, we won't be able to go anywhere. Probably my power will go out. [00:06:35] Um, know, but. Um, definitely hoping not to see a, a [00:06:40] repeat of what happened, uh, in Texas last time.

[00:06:42] Bruce Anthony: Well, all I know is as long as [00:06:45] my power don't go out, this is heaven sent. That means I ain't gotta leave a house for nothing for a couple days. And I [00:06:50] got an excuse. I mean, I don't leave a house anyway, but I got an excuse not to leave a house. [00:06:55] Uh, this wasn't the only thing that I wanted to talk about though, in the dilly dabbling.

You sent me something [00:07:00] earlier today, and it was this morning where I opened it and it was, [00:07:05] um, guy,

“He Was Capping” — Calling Out Lies in Podcast Storytelling 🎙️🚩😒

[00:07:07] Jay Aundrea: Tori?

[00:07:07] Bruce Anthony: Tori on a podcast [00:07:10] talking about filming the movie life. And he talked about [00:07:15] some racist happenings that happened on life. Now, I completely believe that [00:07:20] some racist happenings happened on American history X 'cause Edward Norton is a method [00:07:25] actor.

Supposedly they had some real skinheads, so I could believe [00:07:30] that.

[00:07:30] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:07:31] Bruce Anthony: Said immediately when you sent me that video, he was capping [00:07:35] about racism, a specific thing where a stick figure with a noose [00:07:40] was found around his neck on the set. Like that didn't happen. And, and people get on these [00:07:45] podcasts and start capping, they start embellishing.

And that's a problem [00:07:50] with old people anyway. 'cause Guy is not young. Guy is got me [00:07:55] by 10 years. Okay? He's in his fifties easily. Um, [00:08:00] the older you get, the stories you tell, because 50, so he's almost 60 [00:08:05] years old. The older you get, the stories that you tell get crazier and [00:08:10] crazier and crazier.

[00:08:11] Jay Aundrea: is. The old, we had to walk 15 miles and, and [00:08:15] six feet of snow to get to school type of thing. You know that old [00:08:20] people here we had, they're like, man, shut up. No you didn't with no [00:08:25] shoes on. And he

[00:08:26] Bruce Anthony: Right?

With no shoes on.

[00:08:27] Jay Aundrea: I think. That there [00:08:30] might have been incidents that could be construed as [00:08:35] racist on the set, and that Eddie maybe once, [00:08:40] maybe twice, had to say something or have someone removed or something [00:08:45] like that. Yes, I think that's the, whatever the story was, I can't remember. [00:08:50] Some guy said, some

[00:08:53] Bruce Anthony: It was the picket. It was, it was the [00:08:55] picket you, the pickax stand where supposedly the guy was swinging the pickax and one of the, [00:09:00] one of the crews said, Hey, that's not how you swinging a pickax. And Eddie was like, Hey man, don't talk to him like that. [00:09:05] And, and the guy wasn't on the crew any longer. Like, yes, I do believe stuff like [00:09:10] that, but the noose around the neck, nah, I don't believe that.

[00:09:13] Jay Aundrea: but did it go down like that? Like [00:09:15] as a, a racist incident? I don't think so. I don't think that the [00:09:20] response was, Hey, we know how to swing a pickax. We've been swinging a pickax, [00:09:25] you

[00:09:25] Bruce Anthony: Right. Yeah.

[00:09:26] Jay Aundrea: because those are actors, they don't know how to swing a pickax. [00:09:30] There are some things that are just not inherent to us on the strength of us being [00:09:35] black, like

[00:09:35] Bruce Anthony: I've never swung a pickax. Am I Tyler? I don't know how I swung a pickax. You just [00:09:40] swing it, right? Just swing it.

[00:09:41] Jay Aundrea: know how to play the base, you know what I'm saying? Like, [00:09:45] there are some things like, don't just assume all [00:09:50] black people can do this or do do this. Like, so yeah. Do I feel like [00:09:55] he was probably putting 20 on, on five? Yes.

[00:09:58] Bruce Anthony: Not a hundred on 10, 20 [00:10:00] on five. That's a, that's a new one. I ain't heard that one before.

[00:10:03] Jay Aundrea: You know, it's a little [00:10:05] bit, but it's, it's harmless. Like, so

[00:10:07] Bruce Anthony: But that's not harmless. That [00:10:10] particular story about the noose is not harmless. And the reason why immediately I said [00:10:15] kain is because. I'm such a nerd [00:10:20] anytime. They always have these little tidbits documentaries on things you didn't [00:10:25] know about this movie or this book, or this TV series. I'm watching all this time and I'm always [00:10:30] watching interviews specifically about life because I want to hear any story that's about Bernie [00:10:35] Mac.

If that had happened,

[00:10:38] Jay Aundrea: Somebody would've said

[00:10:39] Bruce Anthony: somebody [00:10:40] would've at least hinted about it a little bit,

[00:10:43] Jay Aundrea: Yeah. Especially if it was something that [00:10:45] Eddie responded to personally

[00:10:48] Bruce Anthony: right?

[00:10:49] Jay Aundrea: to a, [00:10:50] I think his overall message was, Hey, Eddie really looked out for [00:10:55] us and it on this set. And made sure that we were treated well. Like that [00:11:00] could have just been the story. But in order to make it entertaining, because [00:11:05] again, remember at his core guy, Tori is a comedian, he's a standup comedian. So in [00:11:10] order to make it entertaining, you know, you put a little extra little sauce on it. Yeah. I'm [00:11:15] sure there was a doll with a noose around his neck, found [00:11:20] in on set, more people would have told that story for sure.[00:11:25]

[00:11:25] Bruce Anthony: Absolutely

[00:11:26] Jay Aundrea: but I think the general message is probably [00:11:30] once Eddie had to stand up for them and somebody got fired, and [00:11:35] from Guy Torah's perspective, from that moment on, Eddie Murphy was not just his comedic [00:11:40] hero, but his, you know,

[00:11:41] Bruce Anthony: his hero. Hero.

Yeah.

Well, it, it [00:11:45] just, it got, you know, when you sent that to me and, and you know, I watch a lot of these interview [00:11:50] podcasts just because I'm like, one, I'm always watching just to [00:11:55] see, to learn how to interview better, right? Like, I'm

trying to interview better and I [00:12:00] figure the people that,

[00:12:00] Jay Aundrea: the wrong paragraph, like, uh,

[00:12:03] Bruce Anthony: well, no,

[00:12:03] Jay Aundrea: guys are[00:12:05]

[00:12:05] Bruce Anthony: well, well, sometimes they show you what not to do.

[00:12:09] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.[00:12:10]

[00:12:10] Bruce Anthony: Sometimes, sometimes you can learn from these interviewers, the beats and [00:12:15] how there's a lull and how, and I pick up on it like, oh, come on. They [00:12:20] need to speed up the conversation. They need to, this person that they're [00:12:25] interviewing is having a hard time finding words, put words out there to see if that, that helps speed [00:12:30] up the conversation.

I watch,

I watch, I see these interview podcasts a lot of times, [00:12:35] and they don't edit out the long. Pauses. [00:12:40] We don't have long pauses. Uh, just by the nature of the way we talk, I [00:12:45] don't like a lot of dead space unless we chuckling. But a lot of [00:12:50] these people, whatever, I'm not gonna critique these people. What I have found out is these people get [00:12:55] on these podcasts and just start saying anything and it, and it could be a nobody or it could be [00:13:00] like a celebrity.

And I'm like, that's not true. Ryan Davis just got interviewed on [00:13:05] Club Shehe and I was like, you know what? It feels like [00:13:10] a lot of what he's saying is absolutely fact. And then there might be a little bit [00:13:15] of embellishment on some of these stories 'cause you get going and you just like, man, lemme put a hundred on [00:13:20] 10 real quick.

Or as you say, 20 on five.

[00:13:23] Jay Aundrea: right, like, it's like Kat [00:13:25] Williams. Right

[00:13:26] Bruce Anthony: But it

[00:13:27] Jay Aundrea: Chache. That felt a, a lot of it [00:13:30] felt like embellishment,

[00:13:32] Bruce Anthony: mm-hmm.

[00:13:33] Jay Aundrea: um, especially when talking [00:13:35] about like his past and his like educational upbringing and all that. I read [00:13:40] 89,000 books in two months. Like, it was like, oh, didn't, [00:13:45] um, but all right. Like, you know, or, [00:13:50] uh, or Jaguar.

Right. You know, like it was a

[00:13:52] Bruce Anthony: I get Jaguar, right? I but some people,[00:13:55]

some people have them on there just to be who they are. 'cause that's going to [00:14:00] drive numbers. Ladies and gentlemen, that'll never be us anytime. And I have interviewed people, I've stopped the [00:14:05] interview dead in the middle of the interview and be like, I can't continue on with this.

And, and they're like, what [00:14:10] do you mean? I was like, you're not telling the truth like this. This didn't happen because I do my [00:14:15] research before I interview somebody.

I was like, this, this is n no, this isn't true. [00:14:20] Like, I'm sorry, I just can't continue on. This will never air. Thank you for your time. Goodbye. [00:14:25] Um, but thi this is a interesting.

This [00:14:30] is an interesting segue into the final thing I want to talk about in Dilly [00:14:35] Daddling. And another thing that you didn't send me but just popped [00:14:40] up right after you sent me that video, I got on Explorer and just was [00:14:45] exploring

Internet Life Coaches, Fake Gurus, and Selling Nonsense 💭📉🤨

[00:14:45] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:14:46] Bruce Anthony: these mindset coaches. I'm, I'm in, I'm on my high [00:14:50] horse right now telling people stop doing exactly the same stuff that I do.

So [00:14:55] these, my, these mindset coaches be killing me and, and [00:15:00] self-help coaches. And they supposed to set your mind to, to be able to [00:15:05] focus on the things that you need to be able to focus on like a life coach.

[00:15:09] Jay Aundrea: Oh, okay.

[00:15:09] Bruce Anthony: [00:15:10] But they, it, it's like a life.

[00:15:11] Jay Aundrea: I believe in like life coaching.

[00:15:13] Bruce Anthony: I, I, [00:15:15] yes, you do. 'cause you believe in mentors.

[00:15:18] Jay Aundrea: Yeah. Okay. [00:15:20] I, I think the way sometimes life coaching is, is [00:15:25] packaged and sold particularly to black women.

[00:15:28] Bruce Anthony: Mm.

[00:15:28] Jay Aundrea: it feels like a [00:15:30] lot of, um, very obvious things like [00:15:35] that. It, it doesn't feel like any new information, [00:15:40] know?

[00:15:40] Bruce Anthony: Mm.

[00:15:40] Jay Aundrea: Um, it just, it doesn't feel personalized. It [00:15:45] just feels like a bunch of people trying to get rich

[00:15:48] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:15:49] Jay Aundrea: of selling you [00:15:50] some sort of ebook or seminar or something like that.

[00:15:53] Bruce Anthony: Yeah.

[00:15:54] Jay Aundrea: they'd be [00:15:55] gobbling it up and I'd be like, y'all, I've been to a couple, and I was like, girl, this is some bull. Like [00:16:00] this is, have told chat. GPT could have told you all of this. [00:16:05] Like, you didn't need to come pay $120 for this seminar.

[00:16:09] Bruce Anthony: Not to toot [00:16:10] my own horn, but toot toot, because I'm a fitness [00:16:15] professional. That's not just what I do because you have personal [00:16:20] relationship. The the shortest, the shortest amount of time I have with any of my current clients, I think it's two [00:16:25] years right now.

[00:16:26] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[00:16:26] Bruce Anthony: all of them are over two years. One is, we're [00:16:30] starting our, I think it's 15th or 16th year together.

[00:16:33] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.[00:16:35]

[00:16:35] Bruce Anthony: These are people that tell me about their life

[00:16:38] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:16:39] Bruce Anthony: because you [00:16:40] spend two, three hours with a person a week, they're gonna talk about their life,

[00:16:44] Jay Aundrea: [00:16:45] Yes.

[00:16:45] Bruce Anthony: and they ask me my opinion on things. And, and to me, it's all very [00:16:50] common sense, right? Like, oh, okay, this is what you're going through. This is what's going to [00:16:55] happen.

You should probably do this. Right? That's, so somebody [00:17:00] told me recently, they're like, you're not just a a, a body coach. You're a mind and [00:17:05] body coach. You're like a life coach. And I was like, oh, okay. But I would never,

[00:17:08] Jay Aundrea: have to be both,

[00:17:09] Bruce Anthony: but I would never [00:17:10] sell myself as that, right? I would never say I'm gonna be a life coach.

But this [00:17:15] one video that popped up was from a mindset coach, and I'm not even gonna promote them because I [00:17:20] went on that other stuff and I was just like, he. He's spreading a bunch of [00:17:25] bull. But in this one particular video, you remember Kimbo Slice, he was the street fighter [00:17:30] from, uh, Florida. Okay.

Kimbo Slice got invited [00:17:35] to be in one of the tough enough contests in the UFC,

and it was the [00:17:40] first time he had ever been away from his family and like really alone with his thoughts.

And he said something and I was [00:17:45] like, I

Kimbo Slice Wisdom: Realizing You’re Your Own Worst Enemy 🥊🧠🔥

[00:17:45] Bruce Anthony: agree with it. He said, I've always been fighting the enemy. [00:17:50] But I've realized through this time, me being by myself that the [00:17:55] enemy is the inner me. It's not an outside [00:18:00] thing, it's me on the inside. Now I see your face, [00:18:05] but I believe it's true sometimes our biggest [00:18:10] ops,

[00:18:10] Jay Aundrea: unique thought

[00:18:11] Bruce Anthony: I, I know it was, it was unique for Kimbo Slice.

Okay. [00:18:15] But.

[00:18:15] Jay Aundrea: and No, I mean, I've heard that exact same thing before,

[00:18:18] Bruce Anthony: I've heard it too, but it [00:18:20] just resonated with me today. Right?

[00:18:22] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[00:18:23] Bruce Anthony: Like a lot of times your [00:18:25] biggest op is you. When I look at all my romantic relationships, [00:18:30] I could easily say, man, these women I that, uh, I deal with crazy as hell, [00:18:35] or I have a poor chaste in judging [00:18:40] people that I date. The common denominator.

[00:18:45] Both can be true, but the common denominator is why, right? When I'm looking at my bank [00:18:50] account and I'm like, how the hell did this happen? I know just how the hell it happened.

[00:18:54] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.[00:18:55]

[00:18:55] Bruce Anthony: It happened because of me. That's right. So I was like, okay, this is cool. This is [00:19:00] something that is, is good for, for this mindset coach to put out.

Because a lot of people [00:19:05] always try to blame outside factors for those circumstances and don't wanna look within IE, [00:19:10] the president of the United States. But, but I was like, okay, this [00:19:15] is good. Then I went on their other stuff and I was like, this is some bull. So ladies and gentlemen,

the [00:19:20] point of this is saying sometimes you could pick up stuff from a person.

That'd be wrong [00:19:25] half the time. A broke clock is right twice.

[00:19:27] Jay Aundrea: Yeah. Yeah.

[00:19:29] Bruce Anthony: But what [00:19:30] you think about that the, the inner me is my enemy.

[00:19:33] Jay Aundrea: yeah. Again, that's [00:19:35] not.

[00:19:38] Bruce Anthony: Like, I thought this was gonna be some [00:19:40] huge payoff. But Bruce, I done heard that before.

[00:19:42] Jay Aundrea: no. Yeah, I've heard it before. Um, [00:19:45] I think, uh, yeah, that's not [00:19:50] Okay. Well, good for, good for him. Uh,

[00:19:54] Bruce Anthony: Slice, [00:19:55] he passed away, unfortunately.

[00:19:57] Jay Aundrea: you know, [00:20:00] I think is just a part of any mental health journey is like, [00:20:05] okay, I need to take stock of ways in which I contribute to the chaos in my [00:20:10] life.

Like, everybody has to do that. The enemy is for [00:20:15] everyone. The inner me.

[00:20:18] Bruce Anthony: Yeah.

Accountability, Self-Awareness, and Mental Health Reality 🪞🧘🏽‍♀️✨

[00:20:18] Jay Aundrea: it always is,

[00:20:19] Bruce Anthony: [00:20:20] Well a lot of, A lot of people out there do not see that. A lot of people do not take [00:20:25] accountability ever. It is never their fault.

[00:20:28] Jay Aundrea: that's like a [00:20:30] huge thing that a lot of people are pushing for is that people be accountable.

[00:20:34] Bruce Anthony: Yeah, [00:20:35] that's

bad.

[00:20:37] Jay Aundrea: and to have some sort of like, you know, [00:20:40] um, I can't think of the word I'm trying to use, but it just have some kind [00:20:45] of like, understanding of self Right.

[00:20:49] Bruce Anthony: Self-awareness.[00:20:50]

[00:20:50] Jay Aundrea: self-awareness, there we go.

[00:20:51] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:20:52] Jay Aundrea: To have some self-awareness and be accountable. This is, that's [00:20:55] not, this is not new concepts. Yeah. You gotta, I mean, but All right. [00:21:00] You know, good for him for coming to that,

[00:21:02] Bruce Anthony: I mean, he was a Bohemian man from [00:21:05] Florida

[00:21:05] Jay Aundrea: yeah.

[00:21:06] Bruce Anthony: that I don't think graduated high school in 2008 [00:21:10] was

[00:21:10] Jay Aundrea: a Bahamian.

[00:21:11] Bruce Anthony: right. That one.

[00:21:13] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[00:21:13] Bruce Anthony: That one. Look, [00:21:15] I'm not a mindset life coach or a verbal coach [00:21:20] for bolt coach. Yeah, I messed that word up too. I'm gonna get us the hell out of this [00:21:25] segment, but before I do, speaking of accountability,

[00:21:30] Jay, I'm going to tell you a story about some siblings that you won't believe,

[00:21:34] Jay Aundrea: Oh [00:21:35] boy.

[00:21:35] Bruce Anthony: and that's coming up.

Next.

​

[00:21:46] Bruce Anthony: [00:21:40] [00:21:45] Jay? What if I told you [00:21:50] that a family that was responsible for a sports [00:21:55] franchise had nothing but internal and [00:22:00] fighting that has caused six siblings to almost be bitter [00:22:05] enemies?

[00:22:06] Jay Aundrea: I would say that that makes, uh, complete sense.[00:22:10]

[00:22:10] Bruce Anthony: Hold on. Now, I want you to do, I'm gonna tell a story, but don't [00:22:15] worry, I want you to interject with questions.

“Let Me Tell You a Story…” — Sibling War Officially Begins 🧨👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🔥

[00:22:17] Bruce Anthony: Little interludes, right? And, and, [00:22:20] but why do you say that makes complete sense.

[00:22:23] Jay Aundrea: First of all, it's [00:22:25] six of 'em. So if you take six people and have [00:22:30] them do any singular task, gonna run into obstacles. 'cause [00:22:35] that's a lot of cooks in the kitchen. Then you make them siblings, [00:22:40] so now they know each other intimately.

[00:22:43] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:22:43] Jay Aundrea: like, they know each [00:22:45] other deeply. They're siblings that's going, that adds a whole [00:22:50] other layer of complexity to a working relationship.

[00:22:54] Bruce Anthony: [00:22:55] Mm-hmm.

[00:22:55] Jay Aundrea: Okay. Then you throw in a lot of [00:23:00] money.

[00:23:00] Bruce Anthony: A lot of money.

[00:23:02] Jay Aundrea: That's a recipe for [00:23:05] disaster.

[00:23:06] Bruce Anthony: You are right. It's an age old thing [00:23:10] of a family coming from something, a family dynasty, even [00:23:15] royalty,

where siblings would stab each other in the back for that prize. Right? [00:23:20] I can't identify with it because the [00:23:25] three of us, even though we've had ups and downs through the years, are pretty solid.[00:23:30]

[00:23:30] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:23:30] Bruce Anthony: But I can see how there could be fraction, [00:23:35] because even in the dynamic of the three of us,

each one thinks the other [00:23:40] two is a click.

[00:23:42] Jay Aundrea: Yes.

[00:23:43] Bruce Anthony: It's been accused, right? They has [00:23:45] been accused that by our brother, that we're a clique. It's been accused by you that I and [00:23:50] our, and our brother are a clique. It's been accused by me that you and our brother are a clique. Like, and [00:23:55] it's like, no, we're, we're all one clique, but we all have different [00:24:00] relationships with each sibling.

Yes. Well, the patriarch of the [00:24:05] family, the father,

[00:24:06] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:24:08] Bruce Anthony: brilliant man, wanted a [00:24:10] sports franchise

Building a Sports Dynasty Inside One Family 🏆🏀💰

[00:24:11] Bruce Anthony: and bought one. And the sports franchise had some [00:24:15] history, but not a whole lot of history.

[00:24:20] Uh, but it was in a major market, and he turned this franchise into a [00:24:25] dynasty

[00:24:26] Jay Aundrea: Nice.

[00:24:27] Bruce Anthony: and ruled that sports league [00:24:30] for decades. He had four children.[00:24:35]

[00:24:35] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:24:36] Bruce Anthony: Two boys, two girls, when he started the [00:24:40] franchise, of course, he hoped his oldest son would go ahead and be his right [00:24:45] hand man and be able to take over the family business, be just like him.

[00:24:48] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:24:49] Bruce Anthony: His [00:24:50] older son wasn't like him, didn't really care about the [00:24:55] business. Dibbled and dabbled a little bit, but wasn't really into it.

The oldest [00:25:00] daughter, well, she wasn't really into sports like that. She did some other stuff. [00:25:05] The next son, he would rather go out there and do sports [00:25:10] on his own, didn't really care about the business, but one of his daughters was [00:25:15] exactly like him, kind of like you and our father. It was exactly like him [00:25:20] and wanted nothing more, nothing more to eventually take over and [00:25:25] run the business.

But there's a problem. Because this is the old times. And of [00:25:30] course a woman can't run a men's sports league team, franchise organization [00:25:35] can't be, has to be one of his sons. But each time he tries to bring in the [00:25:40] sons. That kind of show interest kind of don't show interest. They wanna show, do their own life.[00:25:45]

But the daughter always shows interest. [00:25:50] Eventually he divorces his wife

[00:25:53] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:25:53] Bruce Anthony: and sometime [00:25:55] down the road he gets remarried and has two more kids. Two more sons.

Now [00:26:00] the age difference between the oldest and the youngest is 31 years.

They little [00:26:05] kids,

[00:26:05] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:26:07] Bruce Anthony: a against adults, all of them are adults. These are [00:26:10] little kids.

They grew up with a different father because as the [00:26:15] patriarch of the family was building this dynasty, it wasn't really home that much. [00:26:20] Oh, by the way. Papa was a rolling stone. So he [00:26:25] was out there in the mix doing that. He's rich. He owns a sports, uh, franchise. He's out [00:26:30] there living his life. Okay.

[00:26:32] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:26:33] Bruce Anthony: That daughter, though, is [00:26:35] always there by his side.

So finally it comes time, time where the [00:26:40] old man is starting to get old.

Patriarchy, Succession, and Ignoring the Obvious Heir 👑🚫😤

[00:26:41] Bruce Anthony: And so he has gotta decide how, [00:26:45] how this is gonna happen with the family. 'cause his hope is, his dream is, [00:26:50] is that his children and his grandchildren continue on running the [00:26:55] franchise, right? And he throws all types of stuff in there to make it [00:27:00] incentive that they would never sell the team.

He does a prepay on [00:27:05] inheritance tax. He structures, uh, things a certain way. So [00:27:10] grandkids are part of trustees, so they will always be taken care of.[00:27:15]

He structures everything right, and he puts each kid kind of in place. All [00:27:20] of them have different jobs within the organization, but the one [00:27:25] daughter is pretty much the one running things, right?

She handles the business side. [00:27:30] One of the sons is getting interested in running the sports side. [00:27:35] Papa dies,

and of course the infighting starts. Now, [00:27:40] just from the first part of this story, what is your initial [00:27:45] thoughts about what's going on with this family?

[00:27:49] Jay Aundrea: [00:27:50] Um, patriarchy's trash.[00:27:55]

[00:27:55] Bruce Anthony: True.

[00:27:55] Jay Aundrea: the whole time he could have just been, you know, preparing [00:28:00] the child who was interested in taking [00:28:05] over, could have just been preparing them and setting [00:28:10] everybody up with their little trust funds or whatever rich people do, them on the payroll somehow. [00:28:15] I don't know how rich people live their lives that don't have nothing to do with me, but [00:28:20] instead holding out hope, [00:28:25] um, for people who that interested or but wanna [00:28:30] do things their own way.

So they're not really interested in working. [00:28:35] Him like apprenticing or, or doing what they need to do to got like get up to [00:28:40] speed. So it's like, wow, the patriarchy really [00:28:45] screwed him on this because he could have already had all of this [00:28:50] and done before he even got that second [00:28:55] wife. Honestly. Um, he could have already been saying, [00:29:00] okay, child is taking over 'cause they're the ones that showed interest and [00:29:05] aptitude for it. And that's how this is gonna go. But [00:29:10] instead, patriarchy.

[00:29:12] Bruce Anthony: Right now that daughter does [00:29:15] explicitly become controlling owner, but it's on the business [00:29:20] side. Right. This, the business, one of the son that's been actively in it [00:29:25] has, is doing the, the, the sports side. And the two youngest son are [00:29:30] involved too. They're doing the sports side as well with like analytics and [00:29:35] scouting.

And lo and little, [00:29:40] little Birdie told him that they'll be the ones running things because the way this [00:29:45] was structured was that when e when a sibling dies, their [00:29:50] shares get divided up between the rest of the siblings. So it's [00:29:55] essentially. The last person that lives gets [00:30:00] it all. And of course they're 31 years apart.

So [00:30:05] immediately when the dad dies, some of the older siblings, two [00:30:10] of them outta the four to be exactly like mom, we just sell. When the, when the dad [00:30:15] explicitly was like, nah, I don't want y'all to sell. I want you to. But the valuation [00:30:20] of this franchise is growing so much that it's [00:30:25] starting to be like, man, we throwing money away.

Besides the business model [00:30:30] of this sports league is changing,

owners used to be millionaires, they're now [00:30:35] billionaires, and now it's getting harder to compete with billionaires. You think 'cause you a [00:30:40] millionaire, you cool, but you ain't a billionaire. It's a totally different ballgame.

[00:30:44] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.[00:30:45]

[00:30:46] Bruce Anthony: Now what happens is this, once dominant [00:30:50] sports franchise is no longer that dominant.

They have a [00:30:55] whole lot of lean years. Don't make the playoffs for a lot of years. [00:31:00] In the previous 20 years, they had only missed the playoffs twice. When Papa was [00:31:05] alive, after he died for 11 years, seven years, they did not make the [00:31:10] playoffs. They only made the playoffs four times.

So one of the brothers is the one handling the [00:31:15] basketball side.

So what does that mean,

[00:31:17] Jay Aundrea: So now I know it's NBA[00:31:20]

[00:31:20] Bruce Anthony: damnit? I was trying to keep, it

[00:31:24] Jay Aundrea: narrows it [00:31:25] down.

[00:31:27] Bruce Anthony: was handling the sports side. Right, [00:31:30] but they not winning. So what do you think happened next?[00:31:35]

[00:31:36] Jay Aundrea: Sis fired him probably.

[00:31:38] Bruce Anthony: fired him,

[00:31:39] Jay Aundrea: [00:31:40] Yeah.

Firing a Brother Ignites a Full-Blown Family War 🧑🏽‍⚖️💥😳

[00:31:40] Bruce Anthony: but he was thinking when you can't fire me, I'm part owner. [00:31:45] She was like, I fired you from that job, not from you being owner.

So the [00:31:50] other brother, the other brother was like, no, you can't do that to us.

He didn't get [00:31:55] fired. He was just like, you can't do that. So those two brothers joined [00:32:00] forces

to try and steal the franchise from her. Not [00:32:05] her portion, like her ownership, but control. So she's no longer in control. So [00:32:10] they tried to maneuver this way to create a board and they had to go to court and everything.

And the [00:32:15] judge was like, no. It says in the dad's will,

she [00:32:20] is the controlling owner. She has the right to fire you. But [00:32:25] guess what happens now? The siblings ain't rocking with her.

[00:32:29] Jay Aundrea: yeah. [00:32:30] But, but this is, listen, this is just business [00:32:35] and you're, it is been 11 years, seven of which we have not made it to the [00:32:40] playoffs, which means it gotta be some changes.

[00:32:43] Bruce Anthony: Right? [00:32:45] So

[00:32:45] Jay Aundrea: not doing the, you're not doing the things,

[00:32:48] Bruce Anthony: Right.

[00:32:48] Jay Aundrea: not making the things [00:32:50] happen.

[00:32:52] Bruce Anthony: Look,

[00:32:52] Jay Aundrea: you gotta go?

[00:32:53] Bruce Anthony: once lawyers got [00:32:55] involved, Thanksgiving was over, right? Like it became personal. No longer professional. They took [00:33:00] great offense to that, probably because they always felt that they were supposed to be the heir parents [00:33:05] because they were the men, right? It was supposed to go to them. Funny [00:33:10] thing, because there's now six of them, and the two youngest are adults [00:33:15] now working with the organization.

They sided with the sister. They had [00:33:20] grown close to the sister,

they had become friends with the sister. [00:33:25] The organization makes a big deal about signing a player. [00:33:30] We go down the road for a little while. They make a big deal about signing a player

and the [00:33:35] new gm, the new basketball op, dammit, the new. [00:33:40] This new basketball operations guy

is doing a press conference [00:33:45] announcing this huge signing and he's starting to thank people and he thanks.

One of the [00:33:50] brothers that tried to overrule the person that put [00:33:55] him in place, the sister.

And so the two younger brothers was like, wait a minute. That's a little [00:34:00] confusing. Why is he thinking the brother that was trying to take over? So one of the [00:34:05] younger brothers calls the sister, the owner, right? The controlling owner calls the [00:34:10] sister and was like, yo, what's this about?

And the conversation takes a left hand turn. [00:34:15] Their mother, the four siblings, mother is dying. [00:34:20] It came out that before the oldest son was [00:34:25] born, the mother and the father had a daughter, but they didn't [00:34:30] have any money. So they gave the daughter up for adoption, for [00:34:35] adoption, adoption.

[00:34:36] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:34:37] Bruce Anthony: You know, with all this 23 and Me stuff, [00:34:40] she was trying to find her family, found out that she's related to [00:34:45] this famous family.

She didn't come in for no money or nothing like that. She just wanted to get to know [00:34:50] her family.

[00:34:51] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:34:52] Bruce Anthony: Another secret came out

[00:34:54] Jay Aundrea: Okay.[00:34:55]

[00:34:55] Bruce Anthony: the mother and father of the four kids, because they [00:35:00] gave that daughter up for adoption and she never wanted to have kids, [00:35:05] like half kids, right? She made him promise the [00:35:10] patriarch.

She made him promise that he would never have kids outside of [00:35:15] her.

Secret Siblings & a Family Bombshell 💣🧬😮

[00:35:16] Bruce Anthony: This all comes out later now, and so the sister [00:35:20] that's running the organization finds out about this.

[00:35:22] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:35:24] Bruce Anthony: And so when the younger [00:35:25] brother calls, she's letting him know about an older sister that they had, that they just [00:35:30] found out about it and then makes the comment that, yeah, [00:35:35] mom and dad had an agreement that there was not gonna be any other kids besides the four of us, [00:35:40] so you should have never been born.

[00:35:45] Now I'm gonna take a pause for part three and [00:35:50] just from the little bit that I gave you, what do you think about all of that?[00:35:55]

[00:35:56] Jay Aundrea: She said that to her two younger

[00:35:58] Bruce Anthony: It's [00:36:00] said that she didn't, but they said that she [00:36:05] did.

[00:36:05] Jay Aundrea: so,[00:36:10]

[00:36:10] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

[00:36:11] Jay Aundrea: Well, [00:36:15] should not have said that if even, [00:36:20] if the, the, the, the promise between two [00:36:25] adults does not have anything to do with the children. Um, [00:36:30] so they made a promise, but [00:36:35] he got, she passed away, or No, she didn't pass away. He got remarried.

[00:36:39] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:36:39] Jay Aundrea: He got, [00:36:40] they got divorced and he got remarried and he had two more kids.

So like [00:36:45] he didn't keep the promise. I, I think that's kind of a ridiculous promise to make. [00:36:50] they could like, obviously, [00:36:55] well, I'm sure she knew he was a rolling stone,

[00:36:58] Bruce Anthony: Oh, yeah. She knew. Mm-hmm.

[00:36:59] Jay Aundrea: [00:37:00] have no kids on me. Like, that's, that might be like the basis of that [00:37:05] promise of like, I know you out in these streets, don't have no other kids on me.

[00:37:09] Bruce Anthony: Right.[00:37:10]

[00:37:10] Jay Aundrea: These are it. them getting divorced and him getting remarried like that, [00:37:15] nullifies that because y'all not even married no more. So there was really no reason to even bring [00:37:20] up that promise that had nothing to do with the two youngest children. So [00:37:25] even if. She didn't say that explicitly, [00:37:30] like just bringing it up. What was the point of doing [00:37:35] that? Like that seems messed up.

[00:37:36] Bruce Anthony: Yeah, so because of this [00:37:40] conversation,

remember there's two younger brothers

and they're tight [00:37:45] because to them they're brothers, right? Like they are full brothers [00:37:50] and there's an age gap. But this convers, but this conversation [00:37:55] had them realize that there's always been kind of this deep resentment [00:38:00] towards them.

So they were like, oh, okay. Maybe [00:38:05] people was humor in us, but now we're adults. They still look at us as little [00:38:10] kids or not even supposed to be here. Maybe don't think that we have any claim to be a part of [00:38:15] us. Meanwhile, we were the closest to dad because dad was actually around [00:38:20] when, when we were growing up.

Like we know him better

than they probably know [00:38:25] him because he wasn't around, which also has some resentment that they got the [00:38:30] life that the other four never got,

[00:38:32] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:38:33] Bruce Anthony: and they're pissed off [00:38:35] about it.

[00:38:36] Jay Aundrea: yeah, but that's, again, that's not your [00:38:40] sibling's fault. If you have, if you had an issue with that, you should have raised that with [00:38:45] your father. Like, that's not your sibling's fault.

[00:38:48] Bruce Anthony: Hmm.

[00:38:48] Jay Aundrea: they were born into a [00:38:50] family just like you were born into a family. Like, it doesn't, doesn't make a [00:38:55] difference.

Like, so I just feel like bringing all of that up, [00:39:00] what was the point?

[00:39:01] Bruce Anthony: Right.

[00:39:01] Jay Aundrea: of the day, even if you [00:39:05] feel some type of way about your younger siblings and this, that, and the third, your father [00:39:10] still named you controlling owner

[00:39:14] Bruce Anthony: Right.[00:39:15]

[00:39:15] Jay Aundrea: at the end of the, he didn't make one of them control. Now, if he had made one of the younger siblings controlling [00:39:20] owner, and you'd be like, I, okay.

I was here all along. Right. I've been, I've been here all [00:39:25] along. What's up then? Okay. I could say you have some, a leg to [00:39:30] stand on, but the fact that you are, even [00:39:35] with them growing up, he, he knew them growing up. He was close to the two. He [00:39:40] still named you controlling

[00:39:41] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:39:42] Jay Aundrea: So really at that point, what are you [00:39:45] doing except being petty?

[00:39:46] Bruce Anthony: Oh, let's get to part three. 'cause [00:39:50] pettiness does not end there. So the two brothers are starting to hear [00:39:55] murmurings from two of the older siblings, not the controlling owner [00:40:00] one,

but the two. Two other ones. It just like, Hey man, like why don't we sell [00:40:05] this team? Right? Because the money is starting to get crazy.

And they know that [00:40:10] if the four of them joined together and wanted to sell the team, that they're outnumbered in the vote, [00:40:15] right?

[00:40:15] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:40:16] Bruce Anthony: So they were like, okay. They worked with their [00:40:20] lawyers and everything and they said, well, people are stressing because the money is getting crazy. Why don't [00:40:25] we do a minority sell?

Well, we sell a small portion of the [00:40:30] franchise. We get some money that we could throw into their pockets, right? [00:40:35] But we still control, we still have absolute control of [00:40:40] the franchise.

So as they're starting to put this together and they're talking to a [00:40:45] couple of siblings, they're trying to call other siblings.

Other siblings ain't answering the phone. I'm [00:40:50] talking about for weeks, not answering the phone. One day the two brothers get called [00:40:55] into an office,

Ten Billion Dollars on the Table — Loyalty vs the Bag 💰🤯⚔️

[00:40:56] Jay Aundrea: The two

[00:40:56] Bruce Anthony: but

the two younger brothers get called into an office, say, [00:41:00] Hey, they wanna meet with you. But some of the people in the business side of the, of the franchise, and they [00:41:05] were like, Hey, we got this offer to sell.

The majority of the team, the [00:41:10] family's gonna still hold about 17% of the the franchise, but the rest of the franchise is [00:41:15] gonna be sold, and the rest of this franchise is gonna be sold for $10 billion, [00:41:20] which means every sibling gets a half a million dollars. [00:41:25] Now the brothers was like, we don't really want it.[00:41:30]

10 billion.

[00:41:32] Jay Aundrea: Math? 10 billion

[00:41:33] Bruce Anthony: Yes.

[00:41:34] Jay Aundrea: Uhhuh.[00:41:35]

[00:41:35] Bruce Anthony: All the siblings get half a billion.

[00:41:37] Jay Aundrea: Oh, you say half a million. That's why I was like,

[00:41:39] Bruce Anthony: Oh [00:41:40] no, I, alright look, half a billion is what I'm meant say half a billion.

[00:41:43] Jay Aundrea: That's a, that's a [00:41:45] lot

[00:41:46] Bruce Anthony: That's a lot. That's a lot of money. So the siblings that were kind of [00:41:50] on the fence thinking they was gonna get tens of millions or maybe, you know, a few hundred million is [00:41:55] like, wait a minute, I'm going $500 million.

Let's sell. The brothers are, are thinking [00:42:00] about what their dad always said.

[00:42:01] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:42:02] Bruce Anthony: Dad always said he wanted us to have [00:42:05] control. That's the reason why we were talking about selling a minority share. We would still get some cheddar cheese. [00:42:10] It wouldn't be nearly as much, but we would still hold on to dad's dream that we would control it.

Now [00:42:15] we're selling the control away. Except the sister that was [00:42:20] the designated, the owner negotiated a deal. Even though she said she did [00:42:25] negotiate a deal. She said it was an offer. There was no negotiation that even though they would sell 10%, I [00:42:30] mean 10, they would sell the majority of this, uh, franchise.

She would still get to [00:42:35] stay on as the like controller, like [00:42:40] the, the head boss of the entire franchise. And they were just like, this [00:42:45] sounds like the bull, but everybody was supposed to keep their job right?

Everybody was still [00:42:50] supposed to keep their job, still have a part in the organization. If you wanted to have a park, cool.

If you wanted to go away, [00:42:55] fine. So the boys was like, look, it's four to two. We don't have no choice. We could try to fight [00:43:00] this in court because if we feel like they didn't really try to like get the best offer [00:43:05] available, they just took this offer and ran with it. Um, but they were like, it's not worth [00:43:10] it.

We'll still have a place in the organization. It's all good. We'll be [00:43:15] set for life. Our kids will be set for life and we won't win anyway. So [00:43:20] unanimously it was voted six to zero to do this. As soon as the [00:43:25] deal was finalized, couple of weeks later, [00:43:30] everybody was called into the office.

All the siblings, well, five of them,[00:43:35]

and they were all fired

except for that one that had [00:43:40] control.

She's still on.

[00:43:42] Jay Aundrea: because she was smart enough to [00:43:45] negotiate her position, being part of the contract. The other [00:43:50] siblings probably didn't have it in writing.

[00:43:54] Bruce Anthony: [00:43:55] They didn't even get to see the deal. They just, her sister just said that it was an [00:44:00] offer. She said there was no negotiation. 'cause if there was a negotia negotiation, they would [00:44:05] all have to be brought in because there are six owners,

right.

[00:44:10] She said it was an offer. They said they didn't even get to look at the paperwork.

They was just like, this is the offer. [00:44:15] We gotta take it or leave it. But somehow. The person that [00:44:20] purchased the majority was like, well, no, we wanna keep you on to be like the head, which would kind [00:44:25] of make sense. Like, you wanna keep the CEO on. But then, you know, the rest of the siblings were [00:44:30] fired and the brothers learned through back channels.

It was definitely the sister that that [00:44:35] gave the okay to fire 'em.

[00:44:37] Jay Aundrea: Yeah, because again, she's controlling owner.[00:44:40]

[00:44:40] Bruce Anthony: No, she's not controlling the owner. She's just Now that she's quote unquote [00:44:45] Yes. Basically she's CEO. Yeah, she's CEO. Yeah.

Yeah.[00:44:50]

[00:44:50] Jay Aundrea: Um, yeah. So it would come from like the person who has the [00:44:55] rope HR in and figure it would, it would come [00:45:00] from her like,

[00:45:01] Bruce Anthony: It could've came from the owners as well. The owners could have jumped her. They could [00:45:05] have, because the owners are now the board. The board is actually the boss boss.[00:45:10]

But I bet you're wondering what franchise I'm talking about.

[00:45:14] Jay Aundrea: Yes.[00:45:15]

[00:45:15] Bruce Anthony: Did you g Could you guess what it was?

[00:45:17] Jay Aundrea: No,

[00:45:18] Bruce Anthony: Well, you know, it's basketball. It is [00:45:20] the Los Angeles Lakers.

[00:45:23] Jay Aundrea: really.

[00:45:24] Bruce Anthony: Yes, [00:45:25] the Los Angeles Lakers. And now the person that owns the Dodgers [00:45:30] also owns the Lakers. And so I was reading this article and I was like, [00:45:35] wow. And at the end of it, none of her siblings talk to her anymore.[00:45:40]

[00:45:40] Jay Aundrea: Yeah, of course. Even though they're all. [00:45:45] Filthy rich

[00:45:46] Bruce Anthony: 50 Rich,

[00:45:47] Jay Aundrea: own a piece of the team.

[00:45:49] Bruce Anthony: [00:45:50] 17%, they all still own 17%. And, but when I was [00:45:55] reading the article, I was like, yeah, you gotta make tough decisions. [00:46:00] But it's, it's the way that she was moving that didn't sit well with me. [00:46:05] Like I.

[00:46:05] Jay Aundrea: but could No, I'm, I, I agree with [00:46:10] you, but I think also at that point in her mind, she's like, I can't trust [00:46:15] of them,

[00:46:16] Bruce Anthony: Yeah, that's true

because the brothers, the younger brothers,

[00:46:19] Jay Aundrea: to [00:46:20] protect me

[00:46:21] Bruce Anthony: right? Yeah.

[00:46:22] Jay Aundrea: and [00:46:25] everybody else. Hey. And, and, and also, y'all [00:46:30] can't get mad if you didn't take time to have your [00:46:35] lawyers go over this offer.

[00:46:38] Bruce Anthony: They said they didn't have enough [00:46:40] time before the vote. But also that all,

yeah, [00:46:45] Dean like, nah, I need to look at the details of this.

But it's tough when you got other siblings [00:46:50] who don't really, don't really care to be a part of it anymore, and they're like, $500 million. [00:46:55] Like what are we talking about here?

Like, think about it. If the three of us was in that [00:47:00] type of position,

[00:47:00] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.

[00:47:02] Bruce Anthony: right?

Say it was this podcast [00:47:05] and our brother had a piece of it and we were three co-owners. Right? But I had [00:47:10] the controlling like say so,

and we got a offer[00:47:15]

where all of us would get half a billion.

[00:47:17] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:47:18] Bruce Anthony: But I was like, I don't know [00:47:20] about this.

Y'all would be like, uh, you better take half [00:47:25] that billion.

[00:47:26] Jay Aundrea: No, I wanna see the paperwork. Like, I'm sorry, I wanna see the offer and [00:47:30] I wanna, I, because here's the thing, how often has there been a [00:47:35] takeover of a company or something like that, or a merger and everything? Oh yeah. Everybody will still [00:47:40] have their jobs and then a few weeks, a month in everybody from the [00:47:45] old company is fired.

[00:47:46] Bruce Anthony: Yeah.

[00:47:48] Jay Aundrea: obviously, so for [00:47:50] me, if I realize, okay, yeah, I'm getting a lot of money, but I'm losing [00:47:55] controlling interest and I'm just relying on the word of somebody I [00:48:00] kind of

When Money Fails to Heal Deep Family Damage 💸💔😔

[00:48:00] Jay Aundrea: trust, even though they're my sibling, only kind of trust at this point. 'cause we've [00:48:05] been back and forth through them courts like, and then especially if I'm the two [00:48:10] youngest, I, I really don't trust you 'cause you was acting like I ain't even supposed to be here.

[00:48:13] Bruce Anthony: Right,[00:48:15]

[00:48:15] Jay Aundrea: Um. I wanna wanna see that paperwork [00:48:20] and make sure that I'm protected and make sure I'm covered. And if not, then I'm not doing it. [00:48:25] And if I get overruled, then I get overruled. If you, if you and our brother [00:48:30] decide to go forward with it and I get overruled, then so be it. But if I get [00:48:35] screwed in the end, it's to hell with the two of y'all, because I said from the beginning, [00:48:40] I wanna make sure that I'm protected in this deal

[00:48:43] Bruce Anthony: [00:48:45] right. Yeah.

[00:48:46] Jay Aundrea: didn't make sure that that happened.

[00:48:48] Bruce Anthony: It's just, oh, another [00:48:50] thing that, uh, I left out in the interview, the other [00:48:55] sister, so you got the one sister that had the control answers. The other sister who had, who worked for the [00:49:00] organization does some things for the organization, made a comment

[00:49:04] Jay Aundrea: Mm-hmm.[00:49:05]

[00:49:05] Bruce Anthony: that said, and yeah, the other two, they may have been upset about everything, but [00:49:10] let's not forget they're not even supposed to be a part of this because [00:49:15] they weren't supposed to be here.

So that is the sentiment [00:49:20] from at least two of the older four siblings

[00:49:23] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:49:24] Bruce Anthony: [00:49:25] and man, would that hurt

because you know that those [00:49:30] two don't do nothing but look up to the older siblings because [00:49:35] they're like, cool, you got to know Dad when this thing was building. Tell me [00:49:40] stories. And they are, they are heartbroken.

And they were just like.

[00:49:44] Jay Aundrea: not [00:49:45] their fault. gotta understand the context in which that promise was made, [00:49:50] because I guarantee you it was, she's, she's saying, don't you have no [00:49:55] outside babies on me?

[00:49:56] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[00:49:57] Jay Aundrea: But they were divorced and he was remarried, [00:50:00] so it's not the same thing. And even if it is. They're promised, [00:50:05] don't have nothing to do with the two lives that exist regardless. [00:50:10] And that just lets me know that y'all don't look at them like your [00:50:15] siblings

[00:50:15] Bruce Anthony: Yep,

[00:50:16] Jay Aundrea: at all.

[00:50:17] Bruce Anthony: yep,

[00:50:17] Jay Aundrea: look at them as your father's [00:50:20] other children,

[00:50:20] Bruce Anthony: yep. Exactly.

[00:50:24] Jay Aundrea: and that's messed [00:50:25] up.

Loyalty vs Legacy — Who Really Betrayed Who? 🧬⚖️🔥

[00:50:25] Bruce Anthony: It is,

[00:50:26] Jay Aundrea: the end of the day, I have no sympathy for any of them because y'all [00:50:30] are half billionaires.

[00:50:31] Bruce Anthony: oh, money does not [00:50:35] reduce your trauma. Okay. There are ha

[00:50:40] look.

[00:50:40] Jay Aundrea: pay for the therapy, boo. Like I'm,

[00:50:43] Bruce Anthony: I, this is gonna be, [00:50:45] this is gonna be real sappy,

but if I had the choice of half a billion [00:50:50] dollars, but I don't get to have you and my brother, you and our [00:50:55] brother in our, in my life.

I'm not taking the money

[00:50:58] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[00:50:59] Bruce Anthony: A billion. [00:51:00] I throw y'all a little bit and then keep on rolling, but

I'm joking. [00:51:05] But there's just, there's just some, I know people can't be [00:51:10] bought and it's just sad because I see so many [00:51:15] stories of siblings that fall out and y'all know what I'm talking about.

If you listening to watching [00:51:20] the show, you might not be talking to a sibling right now. You may have been talking to a sibling for 10, 15 [00:51:25] years. At one time,

y'all played in the sandbox together.

[00:51:28] Jay Aundrea: Right.

[00:51:29] Bruce Anthony: At one [00:51:30] time, y'all was in

[00:51:30] Jay Aundrea: there was 31 years between you.

[00:51:33] Bruce Anthony: there.

[00:51:33] Jay Aundrea: of the matter [00:51:35] is, it, it honestly, it, especially with that age gap, it was [00:51:40] really incumbent upon them older siblings to foster that relationship with their younger siblings.

[00:51:44] Bruce Anthony: Yeah.[00:51:45]

[00:51:45] Jay Aundrea: little kids and y'all were grown people. And the fact that you look at [00:51:50] them as them two over there let me know that his chances are y'all look at [00:51:55] the four of y'all. That four, that first four, y'all look at each other as them over [00:52:00] there

[00:52:00] Bruce Anthony: Mm

[00:52:01] Jay Aundrea: because just the way y'all are handling each other in this entire scenario, [00:52:05] y'all were never siblings.

[00:52:07] Bruce Anthony: mm

[00:52:07] Jay Aundrea: were always each other as just [00:52:10] competition.

[00:52:11] Bruce Anthony: But you know where it all stems from whose fault it really is.

[00:52:14] Jay Aundrea: [00:52:15] The father,

[00:52:15] Bruce Anthony: Yes, absolutely. Right. Dr. Jerry Buss. Great [00:52:20] man. But damn, you was, damn, you was a horrible family man.

[00:52:23] Jay Aundrea: I mean, it's also like [00:52:25] the time, right? The patriarchy thing

[00:52:27] Bruce Anthony: Yeah.

[00:52:28] Jay Aundrea: him not being able to [00:52:30] really like in his daughter to take over, even though she ended up [00:52:35] taking over eventually anyway, because times changed,

[00:52:38] Bruce Anthony: And wields a lot of power [00:52:40] in the NBA governors, 'cause that's what they're called, not called owners anymore, they're called governors. The NBA [00:52:45] Governors Association. She wields a, she has, she got a lot of res, A lot of [00:52:50] respect. A lot of respect.

[00:52:52] Jay Aundrea: just, you know, making sure [00:52:55] that. First of all, that whole thing about [00:53:00] don't have no more kids, that should have never been shared amongst the children in the first[00:53:05]

[00:53:05] Bruce Anthony: Well, the mother was sick, so that could have came out. I think she had cancer, so because that could have came [00:53:10] out while she was sick because they just found out about it. Like it was just recently within the [00:53:15] last, I don't know, 10 years, maybe, maybe not even 10 years.

[00:53:18] Jay Aundrea: treating the, they [00:53:20] didn't need that. That was just honestly kindling on the fire.

[00:53:24] Bruce Anthony: But the [00:53:25] mama may have did that on purpose.

[00:53:26] Jay Aundrea: she might have, I mean, we don't [00:53:30] know. We

[00:53:30] Bruce Anthony: We don't know.

[00:53:31] Jay Aundrea: the inner workings of rich

[00:53:32] Bruce Anthony: We don't know, but it's crazy.

[00:53:34] Jay Aundrea: a [00:53:35] different code.

[00:53:36] Bruce Anthony: It's crazy. So I wanted to tell you this story. A simple

[00:53:38] Jay Aundrea: Point. It's a [00:53:40] show on Netflix, Kate Hudson. very, very similar. Except

[00:53:44] Bruce Anthony: you [00:53:45] told me about that. I said, this is Jeannie Bus. They just stole Jeannie Bus's story. Yeah, that's Jeannie Bus. [00:53:50] Yeah.

[00:53:50] Jay Aundrea: yeah, yeah.

[00:53:51] Bruce Anthony: Anyway.

[00:53:52] Jay Aundrea: yeah. But in that one, [00:53:55] her. brothers are just like, one has a drug problem and like the other two [00:54:00] are just inept.

[00:54:01] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Yeah.

[00:54:02] Jay Aundrea: then there's a, [00:54:05] sibling that I guess pops up and [00:54:10] is just trying to find their place. But the, what about this oldest daughter?[00:54:15]

[00:54:15] Bruce Anthony: Look.

[00:54:16] Jay Aundrea: She just was like, look, y'all bucking and I don't really want no

[00:54:19] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Yeah. [00:54:20] She just wanted it. She didn't ask for nothing. Didn't want nothing. You, you know, just like, Hey, just wanted know my [00:54:25] family. And they were like, we got an older sister. Like, that's kind of crazy. I don't know.

[00:54:29] Jay Aundrea: But she ain't getting none [00:54:30] of that

[00:54:30] Bruce Anthony: I don't, I don't know the details. I think, well, she wasn't in the, in the trust in the will, [00:54:35] so maybe they, I mean, maybe one of them, the slaughter her a little bit.

I don't know. Depending on [00:54:40] how close they get. But that's enough. A sibling talk. We gonna [00:54:45] talk about choosing teams to fight for your life. I'm gonna explain it all. [00:54:50] We gonna get into that next.

​

[00:55:00] Bruce Anthony: [00:54:55] [00:55:00] I sent you something Jay

and I was, and it was this Instagram [00:55:05] posting that had four teams of four,

and you had to choose two teams [00:55:10] to defend your life while two other teams was hunting you.

And a lot of the people [00:55:15] that were on the teams, I didn't know, but I thought that was an interesting game. So I re [00:55:20] I created or remixed the game myself and I was, [00:55:25] and I said I gave, Hmm. Eventually, I'm gonna get this down. Ladies and gentlemen. I've been talking [00:55:30] all day, so bear with me.

There was 10 people that I created a list of, right?[00:55:35]

[00:55:35] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[00:55:36] Bruce Anthony: And you have to choose four to rescue you 'cause [00:55:40] you've been kidnapped.

[00:55:41] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[00:55:43] Bruce Anthony: All right? So you gotta choose four of these [00:55:45] 10 people to rescue you,

and then you gotta choose the four that they [00:55:50] gotta go against. And all eight of these people come out of the 10 of this list I'm about to [00:55:55] give you.

[00:55:55] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[00:55:56] Bruce Anthony: Now, in the thing that I sent you, it was 16 people, [00:56:00] four groups of four.

One thing I noticed, not a damn woman in [00:56:05] here,

but in my list, we have women in the [00:56:10] list.

And who's on this list? What is this list of? It's a list of [00:56:15] action characters.

[00:56:16] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[00:56:17] Bruce Anthony: So you got number [00:56:20] one

[00:56:25] Jay Aundrea: Oh, it's on there. Oh.

[00:56:27] Bruce Anthony: Yeah, it's on the rundown for you, so I'm just gonna, I'm doing it for the [00:56:30] audience.

Alright. That's behind the scenes in front of the camera. So [00:56:35] the 10 people are Jack Reacher,

[00:56:39] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

John Wick, Robert McCall,[00:57:10]

AKA, the equalizer. Sarah Connor. [00:57:15] You know Sarah Connor, the mother of John Connor. Just think terminated too, [00:57:20] the bride.

[00:57:21] Jay Aundrea: Craig. Daniel

[00:57:22] Bruce Anthony: Daniel Craig is James Bond, the [00:57:25] bride from Kill Bill Uma Thermo's character and Natasha Romanoff,[00:57:30]

[00:57:30] Jay Aundrea: kiddo.

[00:57:31] Bruce Anthony: Beatrice Killer.

The bride kill Bill and then the [00:57:35] final person, Natasha Romanoff, also known as the Black Widow. [00:57:40] Now Jay, of those 10 people choose four [00:57:45] That must that you want to come and rescue you. [00:57:50] Now there are a team of four that are band together to come and rescue you against [00:57:55] a team of four that kidnaps you that they gotta fight.

It's gotta be four and four [00:58:00] fight. So who's your four that you picking?

[00:58:02] Jay Aundrea: Okay. So I'm gonna obviously [00:58:05] have Robert McCall, the Equalizer

[00:58:08] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[00:58:09] Jay Aundrea: John [00:58:10] Wick.

[00:58:10] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[00:58:11] Jay Aundrea: Um. Why? Because, [00:58:15] um, have gone up against just one [00:58:20] person. Two whole rooms of people. Whole teams of people, [00:58:25] entire mafias, entire countries. Uh, and they survived. [00:58:30] So, okay, so they, they gonna be first, [00:58:35] next is gonna be Brian Mills, uh, Liam SSOs from Taken. [00:58:40] Uh, why? Because a lot of people got taken and he got 'em back. [00:58:45] Okay. And that's just the truth. Uh, and [00:58:50] last is going to be [00:58:55] Mm, it's a toss up. Ooh, it's a toss up. [00:59:00] But I think it's gonna be beat's kiddo because [00:59:05] again, the. Went up against the crazy 88, knows the five [00:59:10] point palm exploding heart technique. so like [00:59:15] this, this is somebody who's going to, she killed Bill. I mean, she's [00:59:20] accomplished the thing. Um, so, you know, uh, she went through a [00:59:25] lot of people to do it.

Um, uh, went from being [00:59:30] just paralyzed to whooping

[00:59:34] Bruce Anthony: Everybody. [00:59:35] Yeah, all of it.

[00:59:36] Jay Aundrea: that would be my four.

[00:59:37] Bruce Anthony: Okay. Now [00:59:40] I'm going to take that as your top four,

Now Flip It — Who Loses to Save You? 😶🔄💀

[00:59:43] Jay Aundrea: Yes.

[00:59:43] Bruce Anthony: right?

So. [00:59:45] That means that they're going against people that kidnapped you.

Which would be your bottom [00:59:50] four.

[00:59:50] Jay Aundrea: Yes.

[00:59:51] Bruce Anthony: Who would be your bottom four?

[00:59:54] Jay Aundrea: [00:59:55] Biden four. We gonna start with Sarah Connor. Sorry girl.

[00:59:58] Bruce Anthony: What? She [01:00:00] fought a terminator and won

twice.

[01:00:02] Jay Aundrea: show. Did she show? [01:00:05] Did um, she show Did. And, and, and that's cool. [01:00:10] But um, no, uh, sis um, [01:00:15] that was just two fights. Um, and you barely got out them two fights [01:00:20] you won and that's great. But that was two fights

[01:00:24] Bruce Anthony: [01:00:25] Okay.

[01:00:26] Jay Aundrea: and you barely got out from two fights.

[01:00:28] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[01:00:29] Jay Aundrea: [01:00:30] next is gonna be James Bond,

[01:00:32] Bruce Anthony: Alright.

[01:00:33] Jay Aundrea: Daniel Craigs James [01:00:35] Bond. Great athletic, uh, got can fight [01:00:40] get slip in the stuff. Uh, all of that. Um, very [01:00:45] cool. I don't know about his kidnapping skills. [01:00:50] I don't know that they're that good. Are they that good? I dunno.

[01:00:53] Bruce Anthony: They've already got you. They've [01:00:55] already got you. They've gotta make sure that they keep you. So it's more like a defense [01:01:00] skill, not necessarily kidnapping.

[01:01:02] Jay Aundrea: Okay, well, [01:01:05] again, great fighter. I, I just really see him in a lot of [01:01:10] one-on-one matchups,

[01:01:10] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[01:01:11] Jay Aundrea: and I'm really looking for people that'll take a whole, [01:01:15] just be in Italy and just take on Italy.

[01:01:17] Bruce Anthony: Okay. To take on all the Italy. [01:01:20] Okay.

[01:01:21] Jay Aundrea: and I don't, I, I've seen James's a lot of one-on-one fights.

[01:01:24] Bruce Anthony: [01:01:25] Alright.

[01:01:25] Jay Aundrea: next is gonna be Ethan Hunt. Um, [01:01:30] Uh, mission Impossible.

He can get into stuff. He can, he can accomplish impossible [01:01:35] missions.

[01:01:35] Bruce Anthony: Right.

[01:01:36] Jay Aundrea: uh, again, a lot of one-on-one [01:01:40] matchups with that. Um, and [01:01:45] truly the bottom of the list. [01:01:50] Truly is gonna be Jack Reacher.

[01:01:53] Bruce Anthony: Wow, what

[01:01:54] Jay Aundrea: [01:01:55] is, yeah.

[01:01:56] Bruce Anthony: Whater is the bottom of the list?

[01:01:58] Jay Aundrea: Reacher's gonna be the bottom of the [01:02:00] list. E even beyond, because I don't think Reacher could have beat Terminator[01:02:05]

[01:02:05] Bruce Anthony: I don't think anybody on this list can be determinated besides Sarah Connor.

[01:02:09] Jay Aundrea: [01:02:10] Bull.

[01:02:11] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[01:02:11] Jay Aundrea: was about to say, but No,

[01:02:14] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[01:02:14] Jay Aundrea: [01:02:15] John Wick, Brian Mills, Robert McCall, they can beat [01:02:20] Terminator.

[01:02:21] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[01:02:22] Jay Aundrea: Um, [01:02:25] Richard's gonna be at the, at the bottom.

[01:02:26] Bruce Anthony: Wow.

[01:02:28] Jay Aundrea: Yeah. And then, uh, Jason [01:02:30] born and Natasha Romanoff are kinda riding somewhere in the middle.

[01:02:33] Bruce Anthony: Wow. So your [01:02:35] list, the bottom four is Sarah Connor, James Bond, Daniel [01:02:40] Craig's, James Bond, Ethan Hunt, and Jack Reacher. And your top four [01:02:45] are Robert McCall. John Wick taken Bill Byron [01:02:50] Mills and Kill Bill.

Can One Hero Really Take Down Entire Armies? 🧍🏽‍♂️⚔️😳

[01:02:51] Jay Aundrea: Yes,

[01:02:53] Bruce Anthony: Oh, okay.[01:02:55]

[01:02:55] Jay Aundrea: because again, I'm looking at can you fight [01:03:00] scores of people

[01:03:01] Bruce Anthony: Right. No, I get that

[01:03:02] Jay Aundrea: own and [01:03:05] walk away? Barely hurt. Honestly.

[01:03:07] Bruce Anthony: right. No, I get that.

[01:03:09] Jay Aundrea: Can you [01:03:10] handle multiple kinds of weapons? We've seen Robert McCall just, I mean, he [01:03:15] worked in that Home Depot esque, uh,

[01:03:19] Bruce Anthony: And took on the whole [01:03:20] Russian mob. Mm-hmm.

[01:03:21] Jay Aundrea: took on a whole month with just stuff around the store.

[01:03:23] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Yeah.[01:03:25]

[01:03:25] Jay Aundrea: Okay. Uh, Brian Mills, he didn't know where his daughter was taken.

[01:03:29] Bruce Anthony: He [01:03:30] didn't.

[01:03:30] Jay Aundrea: He didn't know where the hell she was, but he found her and he got

[01:03:33] Bruce Anthony: He did. He did [01:03:35] find her.

[01:03:36] Jay Aundrea: Okay. He found her in the nick of time. Okay. It killed a lot of [01:03:40] people to do it.

[01:03:41] Bruce Anthony: He did?

[01:03:41] Jay Aundrea: and and then, then again, what else can I say about [01:03:45] Beatrice kiddo?

Like

[01:03:46] Bruce Anthony: Mm-hmm.

[01:03:47] Jay Aundrea: had a list

[01:03:49] Bruce Anthony: She

[01:03:49] Jay Aundrea: through that [01:03:50] list

[01:03:50] Bruce Anthony: of the tops of the top assassins,

dare we [01:03:55] say, a bunch of John Wicks

[01:03:56] Jay Aundrea: Yes. Who all had different [01:04:00] specialties and all had different and she [01:04:05] ly went through

[01:04:05] Bruce Anthony: methodically. Yeah.

Okay. My turn [01:04:10] two for the people that are my top four, the ones I want to [01:04:15] come save me.

Two of them exactly the same as you. Robert Baca, John [01:04:20] Wick. Now these aren't my top two. These [01:04:25] are two of the top four because what they do best is [01:04:30] equalized and they going to equalize something.

[01:04:32] Jay Aundrea: They going to equalize it. Yes.

[01:04:34] Bruce Anthony: [01:04:35] people are going to accuse me for my next two to, for, you know, Bruce, he just [01:04:40] trying to be this whole equality stuff.

No, these some [01:04:45] badass women.

And the first one who's top on the list, [01:04:50] who was one of the bottom people for you is Sarah Connor, [01:04:55] because she took on two different from [01:05:00] the future terminators. Okay. They were so [01:05:05] bad, they took out whole police armies and didn't have a [01:05:10] dent. You couldn't kill them, and she didn't take out just one.

She [01:05:15] took out. Two, the liquid metal one was even more [01:05:20] advanced 'cause the first terminator came back and he couldn't even beat 'em by himself. They had to tag [01:05:25] team together. She even beat two terminated no matter how big, no matter matter how [01:05:30] bad John Wick and, and uh, uh, [01:05:35] Robert McCall has been. They ain't fought no damn [01:05:40] terminators.

Okay? A Terminator would've killed everybody on them stairs [01:05:45] and got up the stairs way quicker than John Wick did. A [01:05:50] terminator would've went, he would've stood out front and just lay [01:05:55] level the, the Russian mob in that Home Depot. It's a Terminator. So [01:06:00] the first answer is Sarah Connor.

Final Verdict: Humans vs Machines 🧠⚔️🤯

[01:06:03] Jay Aundrea: I think you still [01:06:05] get like, no, no shade like she did. [01:06:10] Get land the killing blow on two [01:06:15] Terminators, right?

[01:06:16] Bruce Anthony: She killed them both. She killed them both. [01:06:20] She killed the first one with no weapons,

[01:06:23] Jay Aundrea: she crushed him with the, the [01:06:25] hydraulic press.

[01:06:26] Bruce Anthony: but she had to fight a terminator with no weapons.

[01:06:29] Jay Aundrea: she [01:06:30] had to run away and stay alive until

[01:06:34] Bruce Anthony: Still [01:06:35] the Terminator.

[01:06:36] Jay Aundrea: you, right. Did she fight a terminator? Uh, [01:06:40] you know, so here's the thing about a Terminator. That [01:06:45] what, and I, I don't think you, what you understand, okay, they're really set up for these [01:06:50] kind of mass type of things, but you put 'em one-on-one with

[01:06:54] Bruce Anthony: [01:06:55] That's, that's some bull. I, I'm not, you just trying to stretch it?

No, you're just trying to stretch it.

[01:06:59] Jay Aundrea: like they're [01:07:00] not as equipped to take, because ain't no reason [01:07:05] why. Honestly and truly, Sarah should have beat two Terminators,[01:07:10]

[01:07:10] Bruce Anthony: Uh, but she did.

[01:07:11] Jay Aundrea: T 1000.

[01:07:12] Bruce Anthony: But she did. [01:07:15] And the second time she was trained, remember how ripped she was? She was trained. She [01:07:20] was trained.

[01:07:21] Jay Aundrea: No, I get it.

[01:07:21] Bruce Anthony: And then she came back for a fourth one and was just as [01:07:25] ripped and was killing Terminators again. Sarah Conner. Let me finish my list [01:07:30] 'cause there's another female on the list.

[01:07:32] Jay Aundrea: All right.

[01:07:33] Bruce Anthony: Now we talk about the [01:07:35] John Wicks

and we talk about the Beres kiddos, their assassins.[01:07:40]

[01:07:40] Jay Aundrea: Yes.

[01:07:42] Bruce Anthony: But Black Widow has literally fought [01:07:45] aliens. Okay? She's fought Avengers [01:07:50] and Aliens.

[01:07:52] Jay Aundrea: Yes, but has she fought them [01:07:55] on masks? I'm looking at if you are coming to rescue [01:08:00] me and you're up against four solid, like even though they're at the bottom of my list, they're [01:08:05] obviously at the top of like humans being able to accomplish incredible [01:08:10] things, right? Like though, I mean Sarah Connor still, I couldn't beat no [01:08:15] Terminator. like they're at the bottom of that list of 10 amazing people. [01:08:20] Like let's put that in perspective. I'm looking for people, [01:08:25] you gotta go up against these four people that got me kidnapped for some

[01:08:28] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. They, they,

[01:08:29] Jay Aundrea: think I'm a [01:08:30] computer scientist and I'm not. I'm a data scientist. I can't hack that mainframe. [01:08:35] Okay,

[01:08:36] Bruce Anthony: I,

[01:08:36] Jay Aundrea: pick the wrong person.

[01:08:37] Bruce Anthony: Jay, she, she,

[01:08:39] Jay Aundrea: can [01:08:40] shoot a gun. She can flip

[01:08:41] Bruce Anthony: she took on aliens, multiple aliens. Remember an [01:08:45] Avengers? They was coming down from the sky. She was out there fighting.

[01:08:49] Jay Aundrea: She was looking [01:08:50] at him,

[01:08:50] Bruce Anthony: No, she was fighting.

[01:08:52] Jay Aundrea: she was shooting, and she'd do a [01:08:55] little thing where she'd jump on you and wrap her legs around your neck and flip, and flip you

[01:08:59] Bruce Anthony: Okay. [01:09:00] But she's also an assassin and is also beating up large groupings of [01:09:05] people. The, she's the black widow. She's the main assassin

[01:09:08] Jay Aundrea: Yeah. No, I, and [01:09:10] I

[01:09:10] Bruce Anthony: shield. Snatch her up and she's like, shield was like this, the [01:09:15] assassin. She's batter than John Wick.

[01:09:18] Jay Aundrea: no, I don't, I don't [01:09:20] know. I don't

[01:09:20] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Yeah. She battered than John Wick.

[01:09:22] Jay Aundrea: John Wick four and so I just [01:09:25] like,

[01:09:26] Bruce Anthony: that's my top four.

Sarah Conna, Natasha [01:09:30] Romanoff, John Wick, and Robert McCall.

[01:09:34] Jay Aundrea: Okay.

[01:09:34] Bruce Anthony: Now my [01:09:35] bottom four, two of them are going to be similar to yours[01:09:40]

'cause Daniel Craig, James Bond got his ass whooped a lot

[01:09:43] Jay Aundrea: A lot.

[01:09:44] Bruce Anthony: and [01:09:45] Ethan Hunt. I done seen him get whooped a lot. [01:09:50] So I'm gonna go ahead and take them out.

[01:09:52] Jay Aundrea: Yeah.

[01:09:53] Bruce Anthony: Jason Bourne, he gotta [01:09:55] go too.

[01:09:56] Jay Aundrea: I was on the fence about that. Uh, [01:10:00] to me, um, you know, it was kind of, [01:10:05] he kinda snuck in like sort of like middle of the road

[01:10:08] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. [01:10:10] Um, but he gotta go. And then my last one that's gonna surprise you,

[01:10:14] Jay Aundrea: [01:10:15] Mm-hmm.

[01:10:16] Bruce Anthony: that's gonna surprise you. 'cause I can't believe you threw Ja uh, Jack richer out there. That's [01:10:20] crazy taken. And this is the, this is the reason why.

[01:10:24] Jay Aundrea: that [01:10:25] I've been taken.

[01:10:26] Bruce Anthony: Why, right. Right, right, right, right. But he ain't fought no assassins. [01:10:30] And so I'm not putting any assassins below him.[01:10:35]

[01:10:36] Jay Aundrea: Right.

[01:10:36] Bruce Anthony: The bride is not going below him. Jack Reacher isn't [01:10:40] going below him. 'cause I done seen Jack Reacher do the same thing. Taken is [01:10:45] done each and every season. He's been on.

[01:10:47] Jay Aundrea: think about it holistically.[01:10:50]

[01:10:50] Bruce Anthony: I don't

what?

[01:10:51] Jay Aundrea: my three assassins,

[01:10:53] Bruce Anthony: Uhhuh?

[01:10:54] Jay Aundrea: [01:10:55] And then I got the dude specializing in getting people back who've been taken.[01:11:00]

[01:11:00] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Okay. No,

[01:11:02] Jay Aundrea: that's, that's the team.

[01:11:04] Bruce Anthony: All he said was [01:11:05] he had a special set of skills and he got back his daughter, then his wife, and then I think his [01:11:10] daughter again. Which by the way, why was she kidnapped twice?

[01:11:13] Jay Aundrea: Again, like you ain't learned[01:11:15]

[01:11:15] Bruce Anthony: You ain't learned nothing. You ain't learned nothing. But also, [01:11:20] uh, the people I chose all rescued somebody as well.[01:11:25]

[01:11:25] Jay Aundrea: No, no, no. His movie is literally called Taken.

[01:11:29] Bruce Anthony: [01:11:30] Right. And

Robert McCall went to Turkey. Robert McCall went to [01:11:35] Turkey.

Just 'cause a, he saw a woman crying that she [01:11:40] done lost her child. Her husband took her child and went to Turkey randomly. He ain't have no [01:11:45] connection to her at all. He went to Turkey and got the child back.

[01:11:49] Jay Aundrea: yeah.

[01:11:49] Bruce Anthony: [01:11:50] That's taken.

[01:11:51] Jay Aundrea: Taken three times

[01:11:54] Bruce Anthony: Well,

[01:11:54] Jay Aundrea: [01:11:55] each time he got 'em

[01:11:57] Bruce Anthony: yeah. Well,

[01:11:59] Jay Aundrea: I, I just, [01:12:00] I don't know. I feel like that's the team

[01:12:02] Bruce Anthony: alright, well ladies and gentlemen, I'm gonna [01:12:05] put the list up. Y'all decide who would be your team or four to rescue you and who would be [01:12:10] the bottom four that you would want guarding you so that they lose On that note, Jay, what do you wanna [01:12:15] tell these people out here?

[01:12:18] Jay Aundrea: in real life. You and I [01:12:20] both know and, and the world. Y'all know this too. Ain't no way Sarah Connor is [01:12:25] beating two terminators like it's not

[01:12:26] Bruce Anthony: She did. She did. If, if, if it could be taken three [01:12:30] times, then Sarah Connor could be two terminators, you know.

[01:12:32] Jay Aundrea: said he had a special set of skills. Sarah Connor [01:12:35] didn't have no special set of nothing,

[01:12:36] Bruce Anthony: She learned. She learned and had Ed [01:12:40] got pregnant with a baby on the way. Well, I mean, she got pregnant, so that meant a baby was on the way, but [01:12:45] you know what I mean. Ladies, gentlemen, on that note, I want to thank you for [01:12:50] listening.
