[Assistant] You know, he's a politician, he's been having to play this game for like 40 years, 50 years, and you're telling me that like, you're gonna form your complete and total judgement of him based on like, the accumulated bad ideas that he's had throughout his career, you know? It's like, we don't judge the average person like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you kinda need to have that freedom to do the comedy thing, I think, is to be able to talk about shit without really, like, being an expert on the subject, because the truth is, is that if you were an expert, you probably wouldn't be able to make it all that funny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, maybe that's true. If you understood it so well that, you know, like a lot of times being a little bit ignorant about something can be the funny part.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A news source and just an opinion guy. Like you know, uh, Rappaport, he says like this is an anti-fact checking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On his own podcast sometimes. Oh, hilarious. Alright, it was him or somebody says it, but either way I always thought that was funny because it's kinda like once you start really fact checking shit, that can kinda be the end of the fun natural conversation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was gonna bring it up earlier, but I wasn't sure if I really wanted to put it on you to like speak on behalf of the comedy community in regards to that because it was like, that situation more than maybe any other situation I've seen play out in public was very much like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The comedy world and then the rap world and they both held such extreme non-overlapping positions on that conversation. Yeaah. It was kind of scary because it's kind of like, well, it doesn't seem like there's going to be a resolution between these two groups on this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel weird because I'm kinda in the middle. Well, I was offended by the joke, but also I get that comedy is this place for offensive jokes, and that's kinda what it's supposed to be, and I think that's important, but at the same time, it does feel kinda weird for


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To see so many comedians sort of being upset about the fact that people were offended by an intentionally offensive joke, you know? It's kind of like, this is what comes with it. It's like, yes, the death threats are too much. Ah, that's a good point. The death threats are too much. The, you know, but, but I mean something like her getting 50,000 Instagram comments saying fuck you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kinda like, well, you know, you made a joke that you knew was offensive, of course you're gonna get some blowback and people aren't gonna, especially that his entire fan base, like almost none of them are sorta like clued in on the intricacies of the comedy world, where it's sorta, this is supposed to be a safe space for jokes, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well I heard that they found like her parents address and were like showing up at her house and shit. Well. That's a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that's the, the rap answer to it is like, oh you have a problem with me? Well yeah, come find me, come pull up on me. Yeah. But in the comedy world, maybe not as much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, no, definitely. And that was actually the main controversy that I saw, and I didn't see exactly what he said, but the James Davis dude, right, he said, he basically like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was offended by the joke and said something about being offended by it and then that pissed off all the rest of the comedians because they're like, basically like, you need to stand up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For comedians in this situation, you know? I immediately got it because I was with Tony Hinchcliffe when that shit first happened. Oh, he probably loved it. Tony lives on that. We showed him the joke and we were all offended and he was just like, he was like, nah. And he's like, you know, I get that you guys are offended, but you gotta realize that this is just, that's, that's just comedy. This is regular shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like knowing that if you wanted to go and state your opinion on Twitter right now, like I have all kinds of opinions that are like too hot for TV, that if I were to just drop them on Twitter right now, then I know that my phone's gonna be blowing up all day, there's gonna be people getting viral tweets talking shit about my opinion, whatever, and it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I respect- I would be so nervous to go to sleep after I said some really flaming hot shit on Twitter though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dude, that's the dark arts, bruh, that's the new shit. That comes into my mind too, like, uh, uh, before I, like, the plane takes off. Oh yeaah. If I'm tweeting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think she's continued out a regular life. We gotta actually look into that Justine Sacco. Why do I know her name?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was online when that happened. I remember like seeing the original tweets that were like, look at what this staffer from so-and-so's campaign just said on Twitter. And I was, even back then, like probably like 2011 or something, I remember being like, holy shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You idiot. How could you think that that joke was all good?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Going to Africa, cause I was, I was like, going to Africa, I hope I don't get AIDS. Just kidding. I already have AIDS. And that's like, it was just interesting cause I went all the way back and saw that and I deleted it because I was like, Oh God, I just feel like this isn't going to come back to get me. But then also I was like, this is, this is, is it offensive because the jokes like turned on myself? Like would have anybody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kai. Kai. There's a girl named Kai. Well, we told everybody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You either really do have AIDS and you're kind of like not doing so good right now, or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You never really had AIDS in the first place, or you're dead right now. And I'm sorry about all those situations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm in Season 4 right now. So have you seen the Greystone guys? How they get touched and their whole body starts to turn to rock? I'm into that. I think that would be, that would do well. AIDS is a little too minimal, you don't really see it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well in Game of Thrones they just send them all to an island. Yeah. I like that solution.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then like, alright, you guys get to- Actually, we still gotta put him back in jail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could see that. Bye. Respect all the dangerous Mexicans out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, yeah, yeah, for sure though. That is one thing, that as like a white person, that you, it's the first time you see, like, all these Mexican families just hanging out in the park together, having such a great time, and you're just like, woah, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wish my fucking racial identity was the cause of some sort of celebration. That doesn't really happen. And when they do have like a white pride parade, it's usually not really the fun vibe that you're hoping for.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe, you know? I had some friends who made a hat that said WIGGLE.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I heard that there was a lot of confusion about that. I never personally had one, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I mean, that's, that's the future. And that's here too. Yeah, that's here. I feel like going forward that everybody's just gonna be so mixed that like over time the racial divide will hopefully make less sense for so much of it to be based on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a level of freedom that I saw when I was in China recently that I haven't seen in a long time. Actually this was like five years ago, but I'm like walking down the street.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there's like a guy welding something and like there's sparks from what he's welding. He's just welding something on the street. No, no protection, no nothing. There's sparks from this thing that are flying into the streets. Like there's like children walking by.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was just like, this is so disconnected from my reality in LA. This guy was welding or like, you know, whatever the fuck he was doing that was shooting, he's grinding something down. I'm like, this would never fly in America, but out here in China, nobody gives a fuck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's incredible, that's true. But the other main thing is that if you ever see little kids in China, like they have a flap on their butt. Yeaah. And they will straight up, the parent will take like a two year old and undo the flap and just have them piss and shit into like a sewer grate. Yeaah. And then they just keep it moving.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's awesome. To know that if you have the government take over anything, it's just not gonna work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, that's the fear because I feel like YouTube and Facebook and all these, they all need to be regulated by the government. But it's also so scary to think about how inefficient and poorly done the, the, the regulation will probably be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I mean, like with the Alex Jones thing, it's like I'm not a big fan of Alex Jones, but I don't like the idea of Facebook and YouTube and Twitter being able to make the judgment calls about whether Alex Jones should be able to take part in this modern free platform.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, there needs to be some sort of oversight. Like, can you imagine if Facebook, if you did something fucked up on Facebook, so Facebook was able to just throw you in jail? Yeah. That's- That's crazy. Doesn't seem right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And being like taken off of Twitter and Facebook, especially if you're a public persona, public independent, like think about if me or you got kicked off of Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it seems pretty unlikely given that we don't seem to have any opinions that are that extreme, but I mean that does make me feel for somebody like Alex Jones who, as extreme as his shit is, it's like, it's just been such an obvious fucking campaign to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't really have that much to do with anything he's really said or done because they've taken the worst shit he's ever done and just amplified it to such an insane degree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We've all been depressed enough that you like actually couldn't get off of the couch to go do your laundry. Oh yeaah. It's my twenties. When you're like that, anything helps.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't like humility too because you get in there and it's like, you're not the toughest guy there. Yea. I remember when I used to go to the jujitsu place, the first day I ever went, he had me spar against his like, you know, fucking super cute


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can help your self-confidence a lot too, even if you're like assuming that you're never gonna actually do anything with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's crazy, yeaah. I mean, I think about it like that, like if I were to have a kid, I would want my kid to be in martial arts for sure, because I feel like that feeling of just, you know, cause you're born a pussy, and you die a pussy, but at some point in there, you might be able to fuck somebody up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know? So it's like, you really, like, if you could teach your kid to fuck somebody up, or at least be confident enough to like, deal with that, like, because at the end of the day, when you're 12, and you're like going to school and shit, at some point, there's like a power struggle for who's in charge of this shit. If you're the weakest link,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You are gonna get taken advantage of, abused, beat up on, picked on, etc. Yeah. And if you could make your kid physically tough, I think that's like setting the stage well for him to not only be able to have the physical strength for somebody to not be able to fuck with him, but then also to have that mental toughness built up over time, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just under two hours, this is a long run for us. Jesus. Appreciate you, man.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the end of the day, when most of the world goes home, a nearly invisible workforce clocks in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Millions of janitors clean malls, banks, big box stores, the office where you work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Many janitors are women who work at night, in empty buildings, in isolation. And that can put them in danger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maria Bahortes cleaned offices in San Francisco's iconic Ferry Building.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happened to Maria Bohortes is not an isolated incident.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to the Department of Justice, there are more than 17,000 sexual assaults at work every year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We began investigating this in 2012 and found it was rampant among women farm workers who are often undocumented and isolated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We since discovered a similar pattern of violent sexual abuse against women janitors who work the night shift.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have uncovered cases of sexual assault and rape at companies large and small.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in the darkest corners of this industry, janitors who were sexually assaulted and even held captive by their bosses.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anna Park is the lead attorney in Los Angeles for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The federal agency that enforces sexual harassment laws in the workplace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The EEOC cannot bring criminal charges against alleged perpetrators, but it can sue a perpetrator's employer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We looked into the largest janitorial employer in the United States, ABM, a multi-billion dollar company whose clients include airports, office buildings, and the Pentagon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] ABM says it has one of the most sophisticated worker protection programs in the industry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we found more than 40 sexual harassment lawsuits against ABM over the past two decades.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, ABM is one of the few companies to have been sued by the EEOC multiple times for sexual harassment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anna Park was in charge of the biggest EEOC sexual harassment case against ABM.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's the largest janitorial company of its kind in the nation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The case began nearly a decade ago, deep in California's Central Valley.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maria Magana, one of the claimants in the case, had not publicly talked about what happened to her until now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Magaña never reported the assault to the company or the police.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so Vasquez was able to continue supervising women at ABM sites all over Bakersfield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Several months later, ABM received anonymous letters pleading for help and alleging that Vasquez had been in jail for sexual harassment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Had they checked, ABM would have learned that Vasquez was a registered sex offender who had served prison time for raping a teenage girl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, ABM never did a background check when they hired Vasquez.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vasquez had been working for ABM for nearly a year when those anonymous letters started to arrive, alleging he had assaulted other janitors, including a woman named Erica.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Morales never went to the police to complain about Vasquez, but she would become the lead plaintiff in that EEOC class action lawsuit with 20 other women.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They alleged the company did not protect them from sexual harassment, assault,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And rape by Vasquez and more than a dozen other men working for ABM.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once ABM learned of the rape conviction, Vasquez quit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We looked for Vasquez at the address listed on the state's sex offender registry, but he had moved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Off camera he told us that the women were in it for the money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The ABM case was resolved in 2010, with the company agreeing to pay $5.8 million.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the largest sexual harassment settlements in EEOC history. While the company did not admit any wrongdoing,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It agreed to strengthen its procedures for the handling of sexual harassment complaints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But less than a month later, the EEOC sued ABM again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Henrik Slipsager, seen here in the New York Stock Exchange, was CEO of ABM at the time of the Central Valley class action suit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Instead, they sent us this videotaped statement. They also wrote us saying that cases we looked at predate their current workplace policies, and they highlighted their 24-hour complaint hotline and harassment training for all employees.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we found someone who had been inside ABM. Mary Schulz.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And she worked for the company as a consultant for several years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] During the period that you were there, there was a class action case from the EEOC pending in the Central Valley of California.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the EEOC regional attorney who brought the case, he said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was one of the worst handlings by a company of complaints of harassment that she'd ever seen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When ABM was sued in another sexual harassment case, the judge dismissed the suit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mary Schultz deposed one of the alleged victims. Do you remember Virium Pacheco? We interviewed her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She's making serious allegations of rape. So then, assuming Miriam Pacheco is telling the truth about what happened to her, but the case gets dismissed, where is there justice for her?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when ABM does not believe they did anything wrong, they vigorously contest it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maria Borges, the janitor who alleged she was raped in San Francisco's ferry building, sued ABM for sexual harassment and retaliation and won. A jury awarded her $800,000 in 2012. The alleged perpetrator denied the allegations, and ABM appealed the verdict.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their lawyers argued their case in front of an appellate court in 2015. And while the company disputed Behorkas' claims, their lawyers said they cannot always prevent abuses before they happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lillia Garcia-Brower is an industry expert who monitors the working conditions of janitors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm used to the janitor being someone who was part of the company.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or part of the school district, or part of the mall, you know, part of the company itself. But that's changed, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] ABM is by no means the only janitorial company that has dealt with sexual harassment cases.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We identified another employer who says they have good policies and they were willing to talk to us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A janitorial company based in Nashville, Tennessee, with contracts throughout the country.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Leticia Zuniga worked for SMS cleaning a mall in a Minneapolis suburb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Her manager controlled her schedule and had the power to hire and fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Several months later, she reported the incidents to the police and then filed a lawsuit against SMS.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you became aware of the Zuniga case, what was your reaction?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As part of Zuniga's lawsuit, her manager, Marco Gonzalez, was questioned about her allegations in this videotape deposition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gonzalez told SMS that Zuniga's accusations were quote, preposterous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] SMS instructed Gonzalez to gather written statements about Zuniga.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Gonzalez went a step further. He secretly recorded these interviews with employees.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are instructions to Marco Gonzalez to gather statements related to the claims that appear to be made against him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, this is him conducting his investigation. He taped it all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He, in a sense, surveilled himself during the investigation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Debbie Tanik was in charge of the investigation for SMS.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While Gonzalez was gathering evidence for SMS, he would change his story multiple times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As part of the case, Zuniga's lawyers were able to track down his work computer and conduct a forensic analysis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They discovered that his internet search history was filled with violent pornography, including sites that appear to specialize in rape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the first time she says she has shared her full story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perez quit without filing a complaint with SMS. Eventually she went to the police. Gonzalez denied the allegations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The second woman went in and complained to the police. I'm not aware of that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And what about a computer that Marco Gonzalez had that showed that he was accessing rape porn sites?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one told you about it? Not that I can recall. And then you know that the manager changed his story a number of times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] During the lawsuit, SMS was ordered to produce internal sexual harassment complaints.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The records show a number of incomplete investigations and dozens of accusations against other supervisors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three years of records from your internal complaint system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Showed that somewhere around 31 of those were made against supervisors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Zuniga's lawsuit lasted three years. The case was settled in 2012. SMS did not admit any wrongdoing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Marco Gonzalez left SMS, but his former boss would later recommend him for a regional position, writing that quote, this guy would rock. In the end, he was not rehired.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gonzalez declined our repeated attempts to speak with him on camera.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As for the criminal investigation, the police believed both women and brought the case to the county attorney in Minneapolis. But he chose not to prosecute.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we look at the janitorial industry, for instance, we're talking about low paid, often undocumented people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We interviewed a county attorney who declined to prosecute a rape case in which he believes the victim.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he said, unfortunately and tragically in this case, all we had basically was her word and his word. Do you agree? Do you need physical evidence to prosecute rape?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It appears that the, that the institutions also rally around the supervisors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the women who did speak out, the journey is not over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maria Magana kept working as a night shift janitor. She received a monetary settlement as part of her lawsuit, but she feels that justice has been elusive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since Leticia Zuniga spoke out, she has continued to work as a janitor. Now for ABM. She says she knows her rights and is doing better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As Leticia tries to heal herself and her family, she still leaves home every evening, like so many women, to work on the night shift.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since this story first aired in 2015, a lot has changed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As women in all walks of life are coming forward with accounts of sexual harassment, Lilia Garcia Brouwer's organization has been teaching janitors how to fight back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After hearing other janitor's stories, Marta Mejia came forward about the abuse she suffered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The issue had also gotten the attention of a local affiliate of the country's largest janitorial union, SEIU.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were encouraged by who came to their side, ABM.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even as the company continues to deal with new accusations of sexual harassment and assault.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The women took their fight and their stories of abuse to the California State House.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lorena Gonzalez-Fletcher introduced AB 1978, a bill requiring sexual harassment training for all janitorial employees and employers. Companies that failed to comply with the law would not be able to do business in California.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know I like surprising you. Yeaah. Okay, so, uh, hey Courtney and six of your grandkids. Come on out!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And is she a good, is she a good grandmother? What's the best thing about her being a grandmother?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he began knocking, knock, knock, knock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mommy, mommy, I hate my knee.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Daddy, daddy, my elbow is hurt. Fell off my bike into the dirt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That indicates there's some problem going on in that water.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the major and most interesting findings was intersex in the male bass. When we look at the male gonads or testes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] EPA does not regulate any of these things yet. And in many cases, there isn't even the methods to measure them in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The amounts that they actually have a biological effect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The endocrine system of fish is very similar to the endocrine system of humans. Fish have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thyroid glands, they have the functional equivalent of adrenal glands. They pretty much have all the same hormone systems as humans, which again is why we use them as sort of indicator species.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we can't help but make that jump to ask the question, how are these things influencing people?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because we really don't know what, what all is in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thrusters, check. Navigation, check. Internal emissions sink engaged. All systems online. Drift, just under 1500k.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You remember to zip up your jumpsuit on the way out of the bathroom? That's good. I just jumped us halfway across the galaxy and hit a target the size of a pinhead. So that's incredible. Besides, specters are trouble. I don't like having them on board.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that is the official story. But only an idiot believes the official story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, bad feelings are an occupational hazard. We don't go anywhere unless there's a good reason, so... What are we doing here? Joker! Status report. Just cleared the mass relay, Captain. Stealth systems engaged. Everything looks solid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aye aye, Captain. Better brace yourself, sir. I think Nihilus is headed your way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it me or does the captain always sound a little pissed off? Only when he's talking to you, Joker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Survives a hundred battles and then gets taken down by backroom politics. Just watch your back, Commander. Things go bad on this mission, you're next on their chopping block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we're gonna find him. Everyone on this ship's behind you commander, 100%. Intercom's open. If you got anything you wanna say to the crew, now's the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, yeaah, okay, well, we'll just wait right here for you commander.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good timing, Commander. We got a transmission coming in from the Citadel. Top priority clearance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes? Bridge to Commander Shepard. We're five minutes out from the Mew relay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Much of a tenant's experience was completely dependent upon the zip code that they lived in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Much of a tenant's experience during the pandemic was completely dependent upon the zip code that they lived in. Whether or not you stayed in that home?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Depended almost entirely upon whether or not your landlord was going to comply with the CDC moratorium. Or a local moratorium for that matter. What sheriff showed up at your door. And what judge you appeared before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We know that black people are two times as likely to be evicted as their white counterparts after controlling for education and other factors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Foundational. It's a pillar of resiliency in the same way that employment and education are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if you knock out that one pillar housing, where you live, your home, you can't access any of the others.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Congress passed federal rental assistance, and that ended up amounting to over $46 billion, which was the amount the landlord associations and apartment associations said they needed to make themselves whole.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have never had the national infrastructure for rental assistance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So states were ill-equipped to actually disperse it to communities.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, by the end of June 2021, only 3 billion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] of $46.5 billion had been distributed to the landlords who needed it and to prevent the housing displacement of those millions of tenants.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It supported people at a time of extreme crisis. It made it possible for them to go back to work and prevented the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The communities that were able to distribute rental assistance had


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So all of these interventions, these measures, they're important and they matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those posts started to be shared quite a lot. And so before I knew it, I was getting phone calls and emails and Facebook messages and tweets and everything else from people all over the county.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The government interventions that we've had to date have been helpful, certainly. The problem with this protection is it's not very effective.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because it doesn't apply automatically. It only applies if those tenants know about the law well enough to sign an official declaration that they have to give to their landlord and the court, uh, for it to apply.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are not deadbeats, these are people that had jobs that felt secure and then all of a sudden the business that they work for is closing or they're furloughing people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That the CDC order no longer applied in Texas. As crazy as that is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I want to talk about today is basically some additional data that we have that's on the sediments.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Outside the current boundary of the cleanup for the Boeing Plan 2.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The significance of the Boeing facility is the number of contaminants that originate from the facility. It has over 24 things in the ground water, 40 some odd different things that are in the soil that are above cleanup levels. So it's the biggest accumulation of contaminants in that area.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They didn't know the totality of what the contamination was, either in groundwater or soil.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Boeing is doing what they're asked to do. No more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What we determined was that the most sensitive population we had out there were Native Americans that eat the fish out of the Duwamish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically, they don't feel that that stretch of the river can ever be returned to where you can harvest these kind of, uh, fish and shellfish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, this camp, yeah. But he's no warchief. They answer directly to the backhand. I'll show them all when I'm in the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perhaps we can take a more stealthy approach and incapacitate them by using their weakness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I stopped working there because someone on my line had corona. Now I'm a tent, so in a floater. I was only back a month and a half. I found out the man lost his hair. I was a squatter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fifth. I think the fourth part is fifth. And said, I will be, uh, getting an email so I can do the Zoom video or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, how am I swaddling? Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The apartment was rented to me since July 9, uh, 2019.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, it became quite a burden now because we're talking about 10 months, 11 months later now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's a very large sum of money, uhm, that affects, you know, everything about the building.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In California, although, uh, the governor has proclaimed, uh, that, that there's rent relief and rental relief is coming and, and we've had to apply and we've applied for the, the three tenants.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To talk to those who have their hands on the levers and they aren't listening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those headquarters are private property, soldier. Remove the geth and nothing else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeaah, there were several places she could hide. For a short time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shepard. Dammit. I knew it was too much to hope the geth would kill you. I found some interesting facts about you in the exogenic database. I know what you did during the Blitz, but your heroics aren't needed here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't understand, it's not that easy. Communications are back up. Exogeny wants this place purged.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you keep saying, but nobody's gonna miss a few colonists.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The mighty grog. He gave me these. And he also...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I say, it's a wee bit unusual to ride the ground.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dedication. Or a sign you preach better than you haunt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I almost died. Hi everybody, how you doing? Good to see you again. If you didn't know, we just had a charity livestream over-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some of it got in my mouth. If you didn't know, we had a charity livestream over the weekend for Best Friends Animal Society and it went fantastically. I haven't done a charity livestream especially on my own in a long time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we raised a ton of money for the animal society. I don't know exactly how much. We sold about 3,700 shirts. Uh, just in the amnesia grunt shirts. And then we sold an unknown number of the other stuff. My FLARP! I dropped my FLARP!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it's got eh. It's got geh on it. And the amount that was donated directly to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Best Friends Animal Society, I don't exactly know. I know that I donated $6,000, but I'll have to talk with them to find out exactly how much you guys donated on top of that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Either way, it was an incredibly successful charity campaign. You guys did amazing, and I'm so happy that we were able to do it again. And I can't wait to do it in the future because we got other special items that I know you guys have won.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Time to get some new Flarp. I don't want disgusting used Flarp here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, I went to the store again and I picked up some strange chemical substances that I'm gonna be playing with throughout this la- vlog. Also, I picked up this while I was at the store.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like a Disney princess. Also, I mentioned on Twitter, but I'll say it again here. I like to sing poop songs, and that means I take popular songs and I replace important lyrics with the word poop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do that the next time you're listening to the radio. Just sing along and replace important words with the word poop. It'll be the most fun you've ever had driving in traffic. Stare at cars that are next to you also while you're singing it. It'll be really fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, there's orange flarp everywhere and my tiara won't stay on. What is life?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why is life so hard? I know that some people are gonna kill me if I don't do this. I'm gonna mix the silly sludge- ugh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mixing in- oh! Oh, that was too ready! I hope this doesn't react chemically and just explode in front of my face. You know, these things that five-year-olds can play with. Uh. Ehh, heh, heh, heh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Get more of the florp in there. You know, I bought all this florp. This is what I do!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just wanted to thank you guys so much for supporting the charity livestream. There were so many people there. There was over 20,000 people in the stream at all times. I think we peaked around 28,000 people. It was just an all-around fun time, especially to be able to talk with you guys again. I mean, we had so much fun playing games and directly interacting with you, which is something that I haven't had in a long time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I just wanted to, uh, tell you guys how proud I am of what you managed to do. Uhm, this community that we have together is so important to me. And I feel like me not doing these often enough kinda loses the sense of community that we've built. I mean, you guys are such a beacon of hope in the YouTube


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, world, and that may seem cliche or sound really silly to say, but it's true because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said this in the livestream, but I'll say it again here. When I talk to other YouTubers about their communities and especially like their comment sections and their fans, you know, they'll say sometimes like, oh I'm so out of hand these days with so many people, it's just so weird and vitriolic and they're all so mean together, but I've never felt that from you guys, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've always felt that you guys have been a shining example of what people can do when they're united to a common goal. And the fact that we can do these charity livestreams and we can have so much fun together and yet at the same time still be serious and remember what the important things about this is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, that's something that a lot of people don't get and, uh, something that I'm honored that you guys are so mature and ready to accept. You guys are willing to take these charity efforts to another level. You guys are willing to unite.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And be this, you know, example of what other YouTubers' communities should aspire to. You have inspired so much out of the YouTube community that you just spread good wherever you go. And that's something that I'm very proud of what you guys have done. And what we've managed to accomplish together. And that's something that I want to nurture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we can be serious and have fun at the same time and that's something that I've always appreciated because I get to do what makes me laugh. You know, I get to make videos that make me laugh and you guys enjoy it too and also we're able to take this platform that we've built from just a few thousand people to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's amazing, and that's something that I'm eternally grateful for, and the fact that you guys rally behind my causes, and they're not just my causes, they're our causes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the fact that we're able to change the world for the better every day, it's just... It's absolutely amazing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So just remember guys, you know, I-I may inspire some of you to do good, but you guys...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Altogether are an inspiration for everyone around us, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not lost on the rest of the people in the YouTube community that we, together,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have done amazing things and we have inspired others to continue to do great things. We're not the first to do charity, but we as a whole are so collectively united in this cause that other people are


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Incredibly inspired to do these amazing things to enjoin us in these causes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As we continue to move into the future, and doing whatever cool things that we're gonna do, I'm glad to know that you've always got my back. So thank you all so much for watching. And as always, I will see you in the next video. Buh-bye!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I am in a better position than anyone else to know how much she loves me. I say to you, Rachel Corey loves me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be open to all possibilities. There is no agenda other than to make our communities and our nation a safer, better place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Facebook's privacy shift, the social network rolling out its biggest facelift in five years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Tensions are running high ever since the change in government.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm not going to be happy to see an American, BSAA or not. That's why I'm your partner. Help put them at ease.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's dressed like a one-man army. His wombs weren't made by bullocks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a high probability that Irving is on his way to an oil field in the marshlands. We're rejoining Delta Team and heading there now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are partners. To the end. Now let's get moving.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's only so much one person can do. Even a superhero like you, Chris.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This ship is huge. Do you think they're planning to use it to spread Ouroboros?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hmm. He must have done something to really piss him off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So now what? You think our weapons can hurt that thing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He can't play around in that without getting shot down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have felt guilt and shame about the fact that in this particular topic I have never done a single thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've been awakened and uhm, I will not be caught napping on the job from here on out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another mass shooting, another deranged perpetrator, and the response is yet again, banned guns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is going to be a pain in the ass. Let's have a seat with that shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How about business negotiation? I mean engaging with foreigners.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you know a friend or someone who has good English skills?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, yes, of course. Don't worry, it's okay. Okay, goodbye. Who else do I have?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, our interpreter couldn't come here today. You have to call your second brother who went abroad and ask him to translate for us. We'll be fine. The clients will bring an interpreter with them. Their interpreter will no doubt speak for them and help them. What if it takes advantage of us? It's about money. In business, we have to learn about our client well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I don't know if Xucho is available now. Ask him about it. Hurry up, make the call.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, most of all, try your best to get a favorable price for us. The ideal price and the bottom price are on it too. In the negotiation, you just improvise. Our main priority is to make a deal. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just so happy. I'm full. You're being so calm right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me tell you. The father you just mentioned and our very own Li Zhenzhen are both Professor Peng Yulin's students. Both of them learned their skills from the same master. And they're very close.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How I wish that Professor Peng would be my grandfather.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's right for people with no talent. But our studio is actually very competent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Zhezhe, here. Have some meat. Thank you for helping us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that's so sweet! Thanks mom and dad!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, stop, my heart, my heart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I guess all that's left is get off the HGH.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh hey, Jenjen! Did you read the link that I sent you yesterday? That's what I wanted to talk about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh-huh, 30 followers! Hey, look at the campus paper. Read the headline, go ahead! See?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is just a Goddess Guanyin statue. Yeah, but it's a rush order. Where's Xu Miao? They have a morning activity at the society.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listen, Sumiyo thought that it's a good idea. Building a relationship with reporters will be good for our studio. Why do you keep babying him? Let him do his job on his own. Oh, come on. I'm just a little worried about him. You know how he is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Elites. Tell me more about them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Professor Sorvad's final entry in his field notes made reference to a latchkey discovery. Latchkey. Not a word he would use lightly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We knew this day would come. They have found our fortress among the stars. The Covenant are on Reach. They will burn this planet, kill millions, and when Reach falls, and fall it will, there will be nothing left to stand between them and Earth. Yet even in our darkest hour, hope remains.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who will protect it? Show me, noble thief. Carter, noble one. The born leader.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He turned Noble into more than just a collection of Spartans. Set up a perimeter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are no technical hurdles she can't overcome, but her curiosity borders on insubordination. Keep pressing. June, Noble Three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a sniper, his skills are unmatched.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] George, Noble Five. It's good to see him home again. But the fall of Reach will weigh heavily upon him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this mission will test every last ounce of his strength.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Noble Six, the team's most recent addition. My my, so much black ink.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Six has made entire militia groups disappear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yet only one of them can carry our last hope. Only one will hold our fate in their hands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, you've made your choice. Yes, well, great minds do think alike.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It may please you to learn that the data module Noble 2 procured from Visigrad Station contained precisely what my scientist promised. A latchkey discovery.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Knowledge. A birthright from an ancient civilization.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This AI is its custodian, and she has chosen you as her couriers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By this AI, yes. Her measure of you carries as much weight as my own. Perhaps more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You are to take her to the UNSC shipbreaking yard in Azad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can glean from this artifact a defense against the Covenant. A game changer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the level of the conical bullet in the 19th century, or faster than light travel in the 23rd.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An apt question, if there were somewhere else to place our hope. There is not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unlocked its secrets, shattered our enemies resolve. Our victory. Your victory was so close, I wish you could have lived to see it. But you belong to Reach. Your body, your armor, all burned and turned to glass. Everything. Except your courage. That you gave to us. And with it, we can rebuild.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was a hotel room right off the lobby. And that's when he lured me in there too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He said, I'm going to the lavatory. And I said, okay. And then I, he came out and he was naked with a towel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was a little shocking, and I just said, uhm, I'm sorry, this isn't, this isn't what I signed on for. And uhm, I, I left the room immediately.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I told probably a handful of people, but no one seemed shocked because he was the producer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We all felt it was typical of someone in a position of power to, to, to wield that over younger, younger girls.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Working at Miramax was like being in a cult. The cult of Harvey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was common knowledge, everybody knew. What a brutal regime it was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He worked beyond the limits of normal human beings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My memory is that I was fully aware


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it didn't take too much brain power to put it together that a man who was so abusive and bullying in every aspect of his life would bring that abuse into the sexual arena.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could I have done anything at the time? Well, for one, I never thought about doing anything about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I didn't have the guts to do anything about it. I think the deal I'd made with the devil, uhm, was to my advantage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From his headquarters in the Sleepy Beach community of Del Mar, California, Clifford is building an empire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He invests in failing universities and injects them with large amounts of capital.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they go public, he can make a bundle of money in the process.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of his schools was involved in a major 2008 IPO on Wall Street. Grand Canyon University.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You may never have heard of it, but today it's valued at 1.2 billion dollars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A former musician who never attended college, Michael Clifford is an unlikely player in the rarefied world of academia.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today, Clifford is part of a movement that is transforming the way we think about higher education in America.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He and his investors have turned around a half dozen colleges that now enroll close to 40,000 students.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are people who would say, look, this guy Michael Clifford, he never went to college, he was a musician, he sort of drifted around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had a born again experience. Do you have the credibility? Do you have the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bonifides to be determining the future of colleges around the country.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clifford doesn't act alone. He attracts some of America's biggest investors, like former GE Chairman Jack Welch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to the Wall Street Journal, Welch invested $2 million in one of Clifford's schools.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Traditional colleges raise capital from wealthy alumni and other donations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clifford's for-profit schools sell shares to investors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clifford's latest turnaround project is a small nursing school in a Hispanic section of San Diego.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's geared to serve Latinos and he plans to open a string of campuses outside military bases.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The students typically hold jobs by day and take classes well into the night to improve their job prospects.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the past, these students might have graduated high school and found a good job as a factory worker or a secretary. There was no need for more school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But with the economy changing, they're coming back to school in record numbers. They represent a huge and growing market.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a phenomenon that leaders of America's community colleges have known for years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In an old industrial section of Queens, New York, the jobs are long gone and students are crowding classrooms.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the demand is so great, community colleges can't keep up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The failure of community colleges to accommodate the demand has given Clifford and others a huge opportunity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The question is, are for-profit schools the answer?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the 90s, Clifford apprenticed with the undisputed master, the architect of the for-profit model, John Sperling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In 1976, Sperling, a Cambridge University educated humanities professor, turned his back on traditional academia and moved to Phoenix, Arizona.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He believed he could mass produce education and run his school more like a corporation than a university.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's one of the largest universities in the world, enrolling close to a half million students, more than the entire University of California system and all the Ivy League schools combined.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I traveled here knowing that the University of Phoenix is wary of the media, but they had agreed to some interviews.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then at the last minute, they backed out and gave no explanation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mark Dufusco arrived at the University of Phoenix in the mid-90s with a Ph.D. in Education from USC, but he quickly embraced the Phoenix model.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To keep costs low, the University of Phoenix hired teachers on short-term contracts. They did away with tenure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And where it takes a traditional university months or years to get a new course approved by faculty, at Phoenix they could generate one in a matter of days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Students who couldn't attend a Phoenix campus could log in to courses online.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in 1994, the University of Phoenix and its parent corporation, the Apollo Group, went public. In an otherwise flat market, the stock took off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How much could a college administrator for?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] University of Phoenix make. The sky was the limit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today, Phoenix founder John Sperling is a billionaire. And many of his executives have reaped millions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With money like that to be made, the business model caught fire. It's been replicated across the industry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For Profits offer a range of degrees, but focus on career training in the growth sectors. Nursing, Business Management, IT, and Education.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Across all colleges, traditional or for-profit, there's no standard measure imposed on them. But we did talk to satisfied students.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I was surprised to learn how expensive tuition at the for-profits is. Five to six times the cost of a community college and as much as twice a four-year state university.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the most successful was Grand Canyon University, the school that Michael Clifford came across in 2004 when it was a small, struggling Christian college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today under another former University of Phoenix executive, Brian Mueller, the school is flourishing. There's a business school with a brand new building.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some 40,000 students are now enrolled at Grand Canyon. That's a 400% increase in just a few years. But you won't find the majority of those students here. I hear it. Instead, most of them are here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ninety percent of Grand Canyon students are logging in online from across the country. These servers alone represent 35,000 of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It allows schools to tap into a wellspring of new students and expand rapidly at the flick of a switch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An online course at Grand Canyon costs from $400 to $550 a credit hour. We watched an online class at another school. We were asked and agreed not to show it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But for the most part, it's just instructor-led discussion groups. There's little in the way of video or graphics, but it is convenient.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But some critics of this model worry there may be something lost.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At Grand Canyon, most of Mueller's profit comes from his online operation, but he still sees the value of anchoring his university in a traditional campus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beyond building the campus and installing his online servers, Mueller is spending even more money getting the word out. Twenty-five million dollars last year alone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their ad costs rival those of multinational brands. Which university revolutionized education in America? The Grandaddy University of Phoenix spent 130 million dollars on ads in 2008.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's more than brands like Tide, Revlon and FedEx.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What they spend on sales and marketing can rival or exceed what they spend on teaching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In addition to lots of advertising, the industry relies on an army of salespeople.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here recruiters are working a job fair trying to convince job seekers to come back to school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The pressure to grow has raised questions about enrollment practices.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the early nineties, a congressional investigation accused a number of for-profit schools of employing false or misleading advertising and using illegal recruitment efforts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While some of those schools were shut down, allegations, negative press, and lawsuits continue to dog the industry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We talk to the Chief Washington Lobbyist for the for-profit schools, Harris Miller.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The industry has a black eye, has been struggling for credibility. Why?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We wanted to find out more about how the enrollment process works.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'd heard complaints about call centers and employees called enrollment advisors using high pressure sales tactics on prospective students.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then we got hold of this internal email from Argosy University.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In it, a director of admissions is writing his team of enrollment counselors. Create a sense of urgency, it says. Push their hot button. Don't let the student off the phone. Dial, dial, dial.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tammy Barker was an enrollment advisor at another for-profit school, Ashford University.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a letter to Frontline, Ashford's parent company, Bridgepoint, says they don't have quotas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Barker says she was instructed to make 150 calls a day and close on at least 12 students a month.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another former Ashford enrollment counselor in a submission to the Department of Education wrote,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are forced to do anything necessary to get people to fill out an application. Our jobs depend on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bridgepoint says Ashford has zero tolerance for unethical behavior.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ray Campbell worked as a financial aid advisor at the University of Phoenix.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once a student was recruited, it was his job to hook them up with a loan so they could start paying for classes as quickly as possible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just weeks before this broadcast, the University of Phoenix replied at length to a list of written questions from Frontline. On the question of pressure tactics, they said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Should we find an enrollment advisor misleading students, prompt action would be taken, including termination.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the same letter they wrote, we are committed to financial literacy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Federal student loans are the lifeblood of the for-profit schools.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although their students comprise only 10% of the college going public, they consume almost a quarter of all federal financial aid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The schools say they're providing opportunity, helping students of modest means pay for college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What remains troubling is that on average the debt load for for-profit students is more than twice that of students at traditional schools.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In 1994, Ann Cobb was a 35-year-old single mother making less than $8,000 a year and living on food stamps when an enrollment advisor from the University of Phoenix helped her get a student loan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Over the course of a decade with deferments, consolidations and penalties and an interest rate that has gone as high as 14%, the amount now due has ballooned to over $60,000.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cobb is not the only person with large student debt. There are many like her. And this has some people worried.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're on our way to a meeting for his latest potential acquisition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We wanted to see what it takes to revive a failing college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That turns a school from a distressed operation to a successful one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clifford has found a school in Oakland, California that has fallen on hard times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Patton University is like many small colleges across the country who have seen their endowments disappear during the recession.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Despite its dire predicament, patent still has one very valuable asset. Something called regional accreditation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that accreditation is a very valuable thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Accreditation is the key to unlocking federal financial aid funds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dream Center is a non-profit Christian mission associated with the Angelus Temple, a megachurch near downtown LA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since its founding in 1994, the Dream Center has been a hit with Christian teenagers from across Southern California.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Dream Center is housed in a former hospital that acts as a 24-hour rehab facility and shelter for ex-convicts, drug addicts and prostitutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if Clifford can make his deal with Patton, Dream Center will also include a fully accredited Dream Center College.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can get a college loan for an education. Absolutely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's not just the people in the shelter that Clifford's interested in, it's the social workers too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you're going to be able to connect both the people that are providing, the social workers with a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the Dream Center conference room, I sat in on a meeting with Clifford and Patton's president as they tried to work out the final details of their deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clifford wants to keep Patten and Dream Center nonprofit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Clifford's negotiated it so that if he can't find enough charitable donors, he can bring in investors and take Dream Center College for profit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last fall, for the first time in eight years, the House Committee on Education held a hearing about the for-profit schools.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're hearing troubling stories about some of the school's aggressive recruitment practices.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We went to talk to President Obama's new Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, to get his take on the four prophets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The government has been involved in a number of lawsuits in recent years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the biggest was against the University of Phoenix and dealt with a rule concerning something called Incentivized Compensation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It stipulates that schools cannot pay enrollment counselors based solely on the number of students they recruit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With no admission of wrongdoing, Phoenix avoided a trial last year by settling out of court with the government and two whistleblowers for $67 million.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sherry Haferkamp was looking to get a master's degree in psychology when she talked to an enrollment counselor at Argosy University in North Dallas, Texas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to Haferkamp, Argosy told her that the degree was going to be accredited by the American Psychological Association.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, Argosy Dallas never did obtain APA accreditation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Haferkamp has now joined with 17 other former Argosy students and filed a lawsuit claiming she was defrauded.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a letter to Frontline, Argosy's parent company, EDMC, says Argosy Dallas continues to aspire to APA accreditation and rejects any charges of fraud. Haferkamp has since moved to Maryland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where she can't hang a shingle without an APA accredited degree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Haferkamp is now sinking in over $100,000 of federal student loans. This debt is almost impossible to escape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Barmak Nasirian is a Washington representative of traditional colleges.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everest College is part of Corinthian Colleges, Inc., one of the biggest players in the for-profit market.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everest held out the promise of a bright future to three nursing students.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They each paid almost $30,000 for a 12-month program.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Despite graduating and getting licenses, all three women have since struggled to find jobs, claiming they didn't have the right training.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, they were given no practical experience in hospitals, as they say they were promised. Only in nursing homes and health clinics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We asked Corinthian colleges about this. They responded by letter stating that the nurse's course provided thorough and appropriate training.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that students were fully informed that sites were subject to change at any time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The women want their money back, and along with ten others in their class are considering a lawsuit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me ask you about these nursing students at Corinthian. We talked about the nurses with Harris Miller. They have $30,000 in debt. Right. What can they do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We asked Secretary Duncan about the nurse's claims and what Miller had said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he said if they determine that the allegations are correct, the government can wipe out their debt. Is that true?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Student debt is a big concern in Congress today, conjuring fears of a looming default crisis reminiscent of the subprime mortgage debacle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not a small matter. Outstanding student loans across all college sectors are roughly equal to America's total credit card debt, about $750 billion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the for-profits maintain their business practices are sound and they don't have a loan default problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nasirian believes the default rate at for-profits could be as high as 50%. And consider it another way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to current government figures for-profit students are much more likely to default on their loans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They represent just 10% of all college students, but nearly half of all defaults.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They have about 10% of the students, they have about 44% of all student defaults. That sounds like there's a bigger problem than just a few bad apples.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a cramped conference room packed with Wall Street investors and lobbyists, Department of Education regulators are attempting to negotiate new rules to try to stem the growing number of defaults.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the most contentious is a proposed rule on something called gainful employment, which requires that upon graduation


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Gainful Employment Test, if passed, will apply only to for-profit schools and some vocational programs at other colleges.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His Chancellor University, the school purchased with help from Jack Welch, has come under scrutiny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sylvia Manning is the new president of the Higher Learning Commission, the regional accreditor that oversees Chancellor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Under her leadership, the Commission is taking a harder stance against accreditation buying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This tug of war between regulators and investors has put Wall Street on edge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Short sellers have entered the fray, betting education stocks will fall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Washington lobbyists have descended on Capitol Hill with donations in hand, and they are starting to have an effect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In March, 18 congressmen and women from both sides of the aisle signed a letter to Secretary of Education Duncan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Urging him to soften his proposed gainful employment rule change.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Soon after he took office, President Obama pledged as much as $12 billion to expand America's community colleges.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This year, after a fierce debate in Congress, the amount was slashed to just two billion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It appears that if the president wants to get more Americans to go back to school, he's going to need the for-profit sector.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just last week, a senior Department of Education official promised more scrutiny of for-profit schools. Their stocks fell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in Los Angeles, Michael Clifford's Dream Center College is accepting students for the fall of 2010.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A plan to build a for-profit online program has not been finalized.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Meanwhile, Clifford's busy expanding into American college. He's renamed it United States University.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was you who was behind that wasn't it, Sasori of the Red Sand?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We need your power at our side to help us complete our pursuits. So come and lend us your strength.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As long as you complete your work anything else you care to do is your own business. Oh I see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will say it again. Come and lend the Akatsuki your power.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well I wouldn't have such high hopes young man, but if that is what makes you want to join us, that's fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Including Itachi whom you brought into the Akatsuki yourself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One more thing, sir. We recently received some interesting news on our side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The member you brought in earlier, Hisame Hoshigaki, has been teamed up with Itachi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna become Hokage, Lord Obito Uchiha!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The art I create with clay that I make myself. It can also explode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when it does, it makes its existence more sublime. And that's when it finally becomes true art. Because art is an explosion!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're much better than I expected. However...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think you'd be a little more specific than that. In fact, isn't it true that Marco Dane was blackmailing you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, did you ever have occasions to meet Marco Day in there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A police emergency report dated February 17, 1978. This report states...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, it was nuts. It was cra- I mean, cause being in it, what you saw was really what it was like shooting it. So you saw blood and mud and angry screaming people and then backstage there was blood and mud. It was harrowing. And asleep people, yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All night shooting, yeaah. So the crew would stay, even on the weekend, the weekends, Sunday, would stay, uhm, on like, on night hours the entire way through.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was in it a little bit, and a lot of it I was up in the air. In my aircraft hangar on a green buck. That's right, you were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm up in the air, so I'm in a big warehouse, and it's on like a huge contraption that is uhm, there's like someone who's controlling, this is, everyone knows what this means, right? There's uhm, someone controlling it, uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, he was kind of, you know, arrogant about it and was like, I can do this. And then got on and was, and that was when I learned that, uhm, that men riding dragons is like a whole other thing than a, than a lady who rides a dragon. A little more uncomfortable for them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So he's in the camera department. Okay. Which is brilliant. It's amazing. He was doing the nights. So I really got to see what was really going down in someone's mind who had to stay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, I know. Well you have to pay to watch that though. You have to like be an HBO subscriber or a Sky subscriber in England, which is like a thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] His ACL is really bothering him, and I said, put her on the table. He goes, no, that's disrespectful. And I said, no, it's not. I'm gonna hold it if not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and she, like you said, I mean to her and to her kid, he was a really good guy. Yes. And all the evidence that started stacking up, it just looked like he was falsy and he just kept maintaining his innocence until the very last minute before his execution and she got him to confess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Women are being hurt, women are suffering, and no one's speaking out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the most difficult things about providing care out in the hinterland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that it does seem that people are very unaware of what's going on and how women are suffering.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because Mississippi is so restrictive because there's only one clinic left. We do see women traveling from Mississippi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the problems is that, so a few doctors are trained, it's not considered a part of standard medical care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there is such a level of harassment and discrimination around doctors providing abortion care that it makes it really difficult to find physicians that are brave enough uhm, and willing to provide care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, okay, first of all, you know, that basically you can have the baby and put it up for adoption.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that probably you were thinking about emergency contraception, but that doesn't work for you if you're already pregnant. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What religion are you? What's your denomination? Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you go, do you, does your church have strong opinions against abortion? Some? A little? I agree. I think you should pray. Tracy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terminating the pregnancy requires strength and courage, okay? And that's something that you need to give some thought to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you decide that this is the right decision for you and your family.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It sounds like it is going to require strength and courage on your part. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes ma'am, you have to speak with the doctor at least 24 hours before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It can be even a week or two before, but it has to be 24 hours before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Women have to come in and sit in person and receive the state mandated information.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this requires that women come into the clinic at least twice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happened was that everyone thought what's wrong with giving women some information and letting them think about it. And that seems perfectly okay until you start looking at issues of distance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, tomorrow we have appointments at 10, 10.30 or 11, or Friday is 12 through 1.30. Do either of those times work for you? Trying to get childcare. Two days. What city are you in? Trying to, uhm, get a day off from work. Do you know, what about Saturday? Would Saturday be better?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I'll tell you what, go ahead and try to get yourself set up as soon as you can for that first visit, okay? So we can do the ultrasound and tell you how long you have. It looks like the fee right now... She hung up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when I asked her if transportation was the problem, she said yes. And then she said, I'll just call you back. So, and it's very hard, I mean, part of the issue that we have here with


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How the waiting period affects women is that often we don't have the opportunity to really talk with women who where this is really an extreme burden for them. Uhm, basically they fly below radar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there's no real way of knowing if this woman will ever call us back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The whole thing that is really problematic for me is the disconnect between the pre-born and the post-born.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they say I'm pro-life, they mean I support the pregnancy in utero, in the uterus. But I see so little sustenance and support for women and children, particularly poor women and children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roe vs. Wade said that states are not free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the second trimester, states could restrict abortion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they have to do so in a way that's really furthering women's health.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They can't just willy-nilly enact restrictions that are intended to discourage her decision.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in the last trimester, that is past the point of viability, states could ban abortion as long as there was an exception for the woman's life or health.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What Webster did is it emboldened those who wanted to push the question. And it said to them, okay, it's, it's alright. There's four votes here on this court to overrule Roe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can pass bans on abortion. Let's do that and get the question directly before the court.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the scheme of what could have happened, this was a tremendous victory. We thought that the Supreme Court was ready to totally eliminate protection from abortion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we won in the sense that that didn't happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I woke up, I hung out with my little daughter, made her some food, uh, watched my gardeners hook up the backyard and shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, gave them some beers and shit. And uh, then I smoked weed with a random fan and shit. Where was that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was grabbing some water and a bunch of other things and then, then it was like, what's up King Lil G, what's poppin'? And I was like, what's good? That's how I imagine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I'm going through my distribution, you know what I'm saying, but shout out to Empire and shit. They supported me a whole lot through this project, but for the most part I'm just independent, you know what I'm saying, doing my own moves, setting up my own shows and shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uh, trying to push through cause, you know, I've been in other situations where I wasn't really able to move. That's why I didn't bring out music for like the last like year and a half and shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was unhappy with it, but uh, you know what I'm saying? I actually got to find out once I tried to drop a freestyle and then the label was like, yo, you can't be doing this type of shit. Really? And I was like, what? What you mean? This is going to be good. This is going to increase, you know what I'm saying? Fans awareness is going to make people stay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I'm saying? Engage, but they wasn't fucking with it, so. And that's like the whole...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Connect and enjoy the growth, because if anything that's what fans love to see, you know what I'm saying? They love to see you take it from one place to the other, so I think they fucking with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got to live in Southgate for a long period of time and that's when I started going to Compton a whole lot. Trying to take my CDs over there. You know what I'm saying? When they had the Compton Swammy. That shit lowkey helped me out a lot. So what year are we talking that you really first started to like push your music?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 2012. Yeah, 2012, uh, I came across a little bit of money, started shooting some music videos, you know what I'm saying, started bringing some batter bitches, cause before that I was bringing some hood ass bitches to the videos.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but, but, you know, uhm, shit just progressed. Shit just progressed from 2012. I kept dropping visuals, and then, uh, that's when I realized, I was like, you know what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, this is a good opportunity for me to become a businessman and not remain just a street guy, just another street guy, you know what I'm saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you're not going to believe it, Adam, but I didn't really get to go to school as much because, you know, getting into problems a lot and shit. And, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And yeaah, what I did mostly was just stay home and write fuckin' raps. Yeaah, I just stood home, I wrote raps, I listened to Snoop a whole lot. I listened to a bunch of that, uh, you know, 90s gangster shit. I felt like my music, uh,
