Roy Wood Jr.

You created the internship at FAMU and then you parlayed that into tremendous radio success.

And then the standup legend that you've become, man, like talk to the folks about that journey just a little bit from what inspired you to create this internship for yourself to begin with.

Negro, I had to graduate.

You know what I mean?

Like, it wasn't like I was, I'm going to leave a path for the next intern.

I will give a damn about nobody else.

There were a couple of things that were in play at the time.

One, I was, I'd gotten suspended from school.

I was at FAMU and I'd stole some credit cards.

And I've used one of them on campus amongst other stuff or whatever.

And so you get caught for the crime and you're on probation for that.

But in addition to the crime, also you use the credit card on campus, little Negro.

So we don't need you to be on probation when you get back on campus as well.

So I'm on a campus version of probation in addition to regular federal probation.

So within the campus version of probation,

You can take your classes, but when you leave, when you're done with like essentially a FAMU, if you're on any type of behavior probation, you can go to class, you can go to the library, take your ass home.

no football games, no frat parties, no hanging on the set.

If you need to go buy something at the bookstore, cool, do that on the way to your car.

But take your ass home and get off this campus.

You're not welcome here other than for education.
