Yeah, but if you're going to come and do some rap, you're going to pretend you've been to jail. You know, like you're going to talk about how many, you know, like you're going to come hard. You're not like even if you're Dutch, you're going to try to sound like you're American black and not Dutch if you want to sound authentic. And she's she's doing the performance. So, like, I don't know.
I kind of get it.
Ask it like that. I mean, Sojourner, she loves that truth. She loves that tea. She's spicy. So someone like Douglas might have been a little bit more like, oh, hello, and blah, blah, blah, and we're doing official things. She might have been a little bit freer with her opinions about how lucky this president was to meet her and all of her insight. So I don't know. I think it could have been spicy.
Yeah.
Yeah, I wanted her to be up in there and be like, oh, so you're the president. Well, let me tell you something. But yeah, I also can see how she'd be like, you know what, it helps to have powerful people on your side. So let's make him feel like everything was great and get what we need, especially since she's so pro-war now. I love when she's like, you know, I was never against the war.
I was just against Douglas. I just could never stand him.
I can't remember the timing of 48 Years a Mule, but this is post-Civil War. So this is like Reconstruction. So that must have come up. Like, is she part of a conversation or is she starting a conversation that takes off later? Like, what's the timing of her trying to do this?
Of course, you've got to speak well of the dead, especially if you outlive them. Yeah, well, yeah. He's like, my favorite frenemy. You know, what can be said? First of all, I'm here and you're not. But also, you were great.
This was amazing. You've given me a notebook, and I have studied for this like I was cramming for an exam. There are five pages here. I don't even know if I've listened as well as I've written down notes about this person. I love this. The cult years are delicious. It's like just like, you know, also like her her touring comedian performer years.
Like I feel like it's there's a series like Hacks that like we can watch. Yes. You know, I'm like, it's a film. It's a series. Like, I want to see the like the abolitionist speaking circuit and all of the like, you know, the sort of backstage happenings. But also like it was cool to see how much she was able to emancipate herself in various ways over and over and over again.
This is stuff that they don't teach you. And I'm really in awe of. So thank you.
The whole time.
Which is like not, it's not the one that you're thinking of. You know what I mean? It's not the one. In the movie, you're like, who's going to pull that one off? Because it's real specific. Real niche. The nuance window. The nuance window.
That was incredible and inspiring. Thank you for making this person, just breathing this sort of modern day heroine into her that she deserves. That was really cool. And yeah, I mean, just kind of remind you that we're all history in the making.
And, you know, how you choose to focus and how you choose to build that, you know, as part of a legacy that other people a hundred plus years later pick up and go like, oh, wow, I didn't know what this person was doing and how inspiring that is to what I would love to do.
I mean, every single time I'm trying to conjure this up, this spirit of like, I've never been lucky in anything. So like, if I can keep it at the table, you know, like in Vegas and keep high rolling, I feel so great about this. 10 questions.
Okay, let's see. Let's take those takes right on down. How about that? How about we do that?
Because, you know, everyone is allowed to be human.
She was like, right then, finally, you found me. Great. Let's go ahead and leave together because you're Christ our Savior. And let's carry on. And what did she do to his feet? Oh, like wash them, kiss them. She kissed them. Yeah, yeah. Massage them forever. Like, come on.
Oh, Peter.
