Well eight hundred two ninety two fifty fifty, Shay, how are you?
I'm a little fan.
Okay, Well talk to me. Who do you want to shine a light on?
My friend?
Her name was Mimi.
I just relee found out this morning. Now she passed away lastly from our health problem. Oh but I just wanted the world to know, even though everyone don't know her, that she was angel on this earth with a heart full of go and that she will very much still be missed.
Oh my gosh. First of all, I am sending you my condolences. I love a warm hug, just because I know that's not easy, Shay, and shout out to Mimi.
I know this is something that's been weighing on you.
We appreciate you for calling and spreading the word about Mimi and to all her friends and family. We want to give our deepest condolences.
Thank you so much.
All Right, well, thank you, Shay, have a good one you too, man.
I appreciate when people are able to call up here and share things like that, So shout out to them, and when we come back, we have your Yet. Andrea Michelle, she doesn't very often respond when people speak on her, but she is responding to Loa Govan's remarks about her on her on Carlos King's podcast We'll tell you what she had to say on social media, kind of explaining everything. All right, it's way up, y eat is next. She's like to talk like they angel Jean, like they Angela Jean.
Man, She's spilling it all. This is yeaty way up.
It's way up with Angela Yee. I'm here today getting the yet ready. My producer Dan is here too, ready to So first let's talk about Drea Michelle. She has responded to Laura Govin's interview with Carlos King on his podcast Reality with the King.
Now.
If you recall, Laura Govin says that she did end up having to beat Drea up.
Here's what she said happened.
At the time they brought her on Basketball Wives as a friend. If I'm not mistaken to.
My sister and guess what.
I liked her.
I had no idea that she was there being Gilbert's jump off, and I saw that he had given her twenty five thousand dollars and brought her to LA And I remember going to where she was filming here in Hollywood, down the street, and I walked past everybody and I beat her all right.
Well, Drea, who normally doesn't respond right, she'd just be minding her business, went on social media to clear things up because this definitely went viral. She said, I didn't mess with anyone's husband. Let's be clear that no one was married. Let's also be clear that the interactions I had with him were years before I was on the show. I did not know her them, and I also did not know her when I agreed to be on the show or her sister. I didn't even know either of them were going to be on the show. So to say the word friend is a huge stretch. I agreed to go on the show and pretend to be friends with a girl named Gloria who I did not know was sisters with her, And at the time, even if they would have said her sister, I still wouldn't have known because I didn't know her. I don't come to social media and bash people. I didn't always have the conscience that I have today. With that being said, I will keep most of what I'm saying polite. And then she went on to say that she brought comedic relief to the show. It was the highest ratings when she was on it. She bought a breath of fresh air. She also said timelines aren't timing, and she said, I don't get on the internet and tell my side of the story often because I respect the fact that it's not only my side. I give a lot of people a grace by being quiet and not sharing. All of my dirty laundry was aired on the show. And when I say all, I mean all. I have been called some of the worst things on National TV. I'm almost at the end, but I will say my storyline carry the show, carried, Carried. And then she goes on to say she's not a victim. I'm never a victim. I am a victor. So if you'll excuse me, I will get back to my very normal, non reality TV related, multifaceted life.
What'd you think, Dan.
At some point, you got to defend yourself. Yeah, I get it.
I understand also not doing that because a lot of times it makes a story bigger. But in this situation, I guess she's like, the way you're telling this story is not true. People were looking at it like they were still married. She's saying they weren't even together anymore. She didn't know them, they weren't friends at the time.
So you know, what, do you think You're someone that usually doesn't respond when there's public stories about you.
I think for her right now, because you know, she just had a baby, she's off the grid, she has been minding her business. I can understand sometimes wanting to just say what you have to say and then go away.
And you know, maybe one day I'll do that if there's.
A book involved all right now, the La County DA is pushing for the governor to give the Menanda's brothers clemency.
He's strung only supports.
Their request, and they filed legal documents Tuesday asking the Governor, Gavin Newsom to grant clemency to his clients. They said it's also significant because of the weekend KNW some doctor a podcast where he said, this is obviously some new compelling evidence that was introduced. So if he does give them clemency, there'll be no need for a court hearing and they would be free instantly.
You think they should be free.
I'm gonna tell you the truth. I did not watch the documentary. I watched the series, and I've heard that people say the documentary is way different.
You know, Chella was watching. My friend, Chella was watching the series with me.
She was like, free theom Then she watched a documentary and she wasn't as sure.
What do you think?
I also did not see the that's the problem.
That's my problem.
So I don't want to make a judgment on it until I see. But it is compelling new evidence that wasn't admitted before. And you know, this is him saying to his cousin in a letter that their father testament, and there's somebody else that said the father did the same thing. So that does feel like new evidence. Right. Well, when we come back about last night, that's where we discussed what we did last night. You know what I did after I went out to the Barclays, I discussed that I went right home to What Love Is Blind?
And if you did too, then stay tuned. It's way up.
So about last night, es I went down.
What's Up his way Up with Angela Yee and it is time for about last night.
So I definitely had a very active night last night.
I was at the Barclays first and foremost, and what I was doing at the Barclays is there's a Just Brooklyn event that we were having giving away a Just Brooklyn Prize that comes from the Joe and Clara si Foundation for their Social Justice Fund. And what we did was give away grant twenty thousand dollars grants to five different organizations that are champions in the fight for social justice in Brooklyn, and so that was amazing.
I gave the recipient, Carolyn A.
Button, her Brooklyn Prize, and with that twenty thousand dollars, it's not allocated toward anything.
They can use it for whatever they want.
So even if you're like I haven't been on vacation in three years, I can use some of that money for that. There's no strings attached. So that was amazing. So shout out to Carolyn A. Butts, who's the founder and director of African Voices and Real Sisters of the Diaspora Film Festival lecture series, and everybody else who won their prize. Is Last Night, Teeno Hardin, Christina, Vette Lewis, Derek Hamilton.
And Nanaj Raoul. All right.
Then I went home and I had to watch Love Is Blind, the reunion show. I was like, as soon as I get home, put that right on the TV. There are a lot of things going on, and we'll talk about some of this during the rumor during what am I called Yet, I couldn't even think of it. During Yet, we'll talk about Tyler and Ashley. But right now, I want to focus on a different couple. I want to focus on what was happening with Alex and Tim. Now the two of them broke up. They had I think when they got engaged, you know, Tim going to talk to Alex's father and reading that letter and getting his approval and then so on and so forth. I was shocked when they went through their breakup, and so the two of them were explaining what happened. Tim had a problem with the fact that Alex did not stay awake and tend to his parents the way that he felt she should have. She took a nap after they drove hours to get there. And here's what happened at the reunion.
What we bonded over most's how much we love our family.
The entire time we met.
She wanted me to show her father some respect and love, so she asked me, and I showed up for her family. I felt like when it was my turn, it wasn't It wasn't returned.
And she says she has to work, which is fine. I get it. Everybody makes a limit to sit.
Here and try to be like, Oh, I have so much.
Respect for you, but you broke up with me because of allegedly a nap or I didn't do the dishes all right, Now, I want to ask what you guys think about this, because I just to expand further on it. Right, Like Tim said, family was everything. His parents drove ten hours to meet Alex for the first time. The meeting went well, but he said he was upset that she took a nap instead of spending time more time with his parents during their visit, and she said, I get tired. I like to take naps, and he said he was not okay with her decision to nap, and so that's what made them break up.
Now, what do you think is there any justification?
I mean, it is a marriage, and if you see a red flag and maybe you feel like it was disrespectful. They drove ten hours and she took a nap, and you're like, that's not the type of person I want to be with.
Who do you side with on this situation? Tim or Alex?
All right eight hundred two nine to fifty one fifty call us up and let us know what you think.
Who do you side with? Tim or Alex?
When it comes to what happened on Love is Blind and the reason why they broke up, it feels like it was still kind of open ended.
When they had the reunion together, he felt how he felt.
He felt that she didn't she didn't show his parents the respect after they drove ten and she just felt like he was being a d all Right eight hundred and two ninety two fifty one fifty.
Call us up and pick a side. It's way up, Plea.
It's not just right or wrong. It's about what you believe. It's time to pick a side and stay there.
It's way up at Angela, yee, and it's time to pick a side. Now.
I know a lot of us do watch Love is Blind. The reunion was on last night. My producer Dan has not yet seen it.
Not entirely.
Not entirely, but one thing that was an ongoing issue this season. Tim and Alex. It felt like they were going to have an ideal relationship. We saw when Tim went and read that letter to Alex's father and was accepted by the family, And then the tables got turned and Alex had to meet Tim's parents. They drove ten hours to come meet here for the first time, and she went to sleep.
Here's what happened on the reunion.
What we bonded over most was how much we love our family. The entire time we met. She wanted me to show her father some respect and love, so she asked me, and I showed up for her family. I felt like when it was my turn it wasn't It wasn't returned.
And she says she has to work, which is fine. I get it. Everybody makes a.
Living to sit here and try to be like, Oh, I have so.
Much respect for you, but you broke up with me.
Because of allegedly and nap or I didn't do the dishes all right, Well, we want to know who is right and who is wrong here pick aside Tim or Alex Melissa pick aside.
Oh, definitely keif we're in the beginning of a relationship. Family is important. We've already expressed that. Go to work fire tomorrow. Right.
You know what I want to say too, And this is something I didn't mention when I was talking about it.
He does have two sisters who died, and.
He knows that she wears that bracelets.
Right right, you took a nap and so we've been married. Take right now, I feel you.
I would have stayed up if that was me, I would have had some coffee, uplifts people, and I would have.
Been awake exactly.
I'm with you, all right.
Well, thank you for your opinion. I have a great day, you too. Hey, Jimione, what's up?
Ah, good morning? Now you're doing.
I'm good. How are you? Do you watch Love Is Blind?
Yes?
I do?
All right?
So Tim and Alex, I want to know what your thoughts are. They broke up after she did not stay awake, after his parents drove for ten hours.
I'm waving to the lady. Perfection isn't a loser and nobody's.
Perfect, Okay.
Basically, he was looking for a.
Doorway to get out of the relationship and find one with that Okay.
I do feel like he's very stubborn, you know, like it has to be his way or nothing.
And she was trying to explain herself. He wasn't trying to hear it.
Yeah, yeah, he was with before door one because he was really early.
He would have thought, what happened to your boys? Thank you too, money, very welcome. What was it? Hey, Lauren? How are you?
Hey?
How are you so?
I want to ask you?
What did you think about Tim and Alex and their interaction?
He was upset?
His parents drove ten hour and he said, while the cameras was rolling, she was great, but as soon as the cameras went off, she went to sleep and did not stay up after the parents drove ten hours to meet her.
What do you think?
Okay, so I think they both were in the wrong only because Alex go to work. She needed to take a nap, but she should have communicated that to him. They should have communicated better.
The communication is the biggest thing. So I think they both were you know, they both handled the situation wrong.
And then he was not trying to hear her when she was explaining herself at all.
All right, thank you, thank you? Hey, Logan, Hey were you I'm grey? How are you what did you think about? Love is Blind?
Tim and Alex he was upset that she went to take a nap when his parents drove ten hours to meet her the first time.
Who do you think was right or wrong?
Oh? She was absolutely wrong. It's the respect thing. She could have taken a nap, layer, but at the root of it, there.
Was some more issues going on underlying.
But you don't take a nap when your partner's parents are visiting, especially when they've driven ten hours.
Maybe you could just act gentally fall asleep on the couch and that's it.
Yeah, exactly out of curtalty.
If they saw you falling asleep, and they may say, well, go get.
Some rest, but you don't just leave and go take a name.
All right, all right? I agree with you on that.
I would have I definitely would have been up like no matter what, I would have tried.
Exactly, all right, exactly, thank you?
Okay, all right, Well, it feels like according to our listeners, we were split.
Should I be the tie breaker? Should I be Kamala Harris the VP?
I'm going to say that in that particular situation, I do believe that Alex was wrong for not trying to stay up. But I think that how Tim addressed it was wrong, and so it still is kind of ti because they were both wrong, but in that one situation, Alex was more wrong than he was, and then after that it was kind of a red flag for both of them to not be together. All right, Well, when we come back, we have your yet we'll talk some more about Love is Blind, because of course Tyler and Ashley also had their issues, but they still made it down the aisle and a lot of people are torn on how they feel about him. And we'll also talk about Akon and what he has going on. Kind of a fast food restaurant and maybe a hit song with Nicki Minaj.
It's way up, Shure, She's about to blow the lid ab off this spot.
Let's get it. Oh, Angela's feeling that yea tea, Come and get the tea.
It's way up with Angela. Yee, Angela, yee. My guy Dan is here with me today and let's get into some yute. So Love is Blind. One of the biggest things that happened this season was with Tyler and Ashley. People were trying to figure out does Tyler have children that he hasn't revealed he had said he was a sperm donor.
He also did lie.
And say he ain't know them kids, right, He didn't think those kids knew who he was. But then there were pictures of him that he had scrubbed off the Internet of him with said children who he claims didn't know him. Dan, what were your thoughts when you saw Ashley basically defending Tyler. They did end up getting married on Love is Blind and she's saying that she knew everything.
She's not dumb.
Yeah, exactly, we only saw what the producer showed us. There was so much that happens behind the scenes, and it's like hard to believe that they didn't have that conversation.
All right, Well, here is what they had to say during their reunion.
Those kids, that family, they did not sign up for this. So what is happening now? Was I tried to keep that from happening. Their birth certificates are online. Things that shouldn't be happening are now happening. And to get into the story, I didn't help the friends and her wife started family, but her wife ended up leaving her, so I set in. So there's pictures of me around Lucy, me around and I played a part that it became very shaky with a friend.
But I do want to let people.
Know Ashley knows all this.
Yeah.
I mean it was interesting because he said those kids didn't know what he looked like, but then there were pictures of them, like in matching pajamas.
That was the problem.
Yeah, I think that made it all feel real shaky because that's a very unique situation.
All right.
Well, Ashley responded and said this, who do you think has.
Better insight on what's going on social media or me?
So for people to.
Imply that like she was blonde sider, she didn't know, it's like consulting to my intelligence.
All right.
I also noticed for all you Love is Blind watches that ram just it looks like he cut off his ponytails.
He was annoying.
I'm sorry to say it, but Marissa, Marissa seemed cool and I felt.
Like he did her dirt.
Yeah, she definitely does it. But her mom though, was a lot too. All right, Well, anyway, that is love is blinding. Case you haven't seen it, we won't give any more spoilersts for you guys, but you should have watched it, all right. Akon was on a bootleg keV. And you know, he's always talking about the different businesses that he has going on. And another thing that he is doing now, I actually really like this idea because I love joelaf rice and I do love I do love West African food.
All right.
Well, he is going to be opening up a fast food restaurant that's similar to Chipotle.
Here's what he said.
The next one's gonna be a jelif Rice fast food restaurant. So it's gonna be called it's gonna be fast food like McDonald's or Windy's or whatever, but that's more like African cuisine quick almost like Chipotle.
I love spicy African food.
Yeah, here for that.
Yeah, I love a spicy joelof rice all right, so I'm definitely here for that now. Another thing that he said was that he has a potential hit song that he did back in twenty seventeen. Here he is saying this would be a smash hit today.
It was actually a record that I did with Nicki Minaj. It never dropped, it'd never dropped, but it was I think would have been probably one of my biggest pop records.
All right.
Well, maybe now this is something that is gonna end up coming out because I feel like Nikki be paying attention to a lot that's going on online. And we'll talk about that a little later. As she caught up with ray J, but Snoop Dogg and Doctor Dre. They have put out their track list for their album Missionary. And when I tell you there is a ton of special guests on this, I mean Janney Iicho's on here, BJ the Chicago Kid, Tom Petty and Jelly Roll is on the album. Method Man in Smitty fifty cent and Eminem are on a song together called Guns and Small with them, you know.
Just a lot.
So it looks like this is going to be really good. The release date was announced earlier this week. They also had a trailer. You saw all of that, I didn't see the trailer?
All right?
Well, that track to check that out, yeah, is now available and you can look for the pre release listening on Apple Music, as well as fifteen songs on the album. All right, Well, that is your ut and when we come back, we have under the radar. These are the stories that are not necessarily in the headlines. They are flying under the radar, but you definitely need to know about them.
It's way up.
It's in the news that relates to you. These stories are flying under the radar.
It's way up at Angela. Ye, I'm here, and it's time for under their radar all right. Autism diagnoses are skyrocketing in the United States. The number of Americans diagnosed to autism jumped one hundred and seventy five percent between twenty eleven and twenty twenty two, and that is thanks to a surge in new cases among young adults.
According to research, They said that.
There is a four hundred and fifty percent increase in diagnoses adults twenty six to thirty four years old, and female cases rose three hundred and fifteen percent. Boys of four times is likely to be a diagnosed with autism compared to girls, but they said that gender gap is now starting to noticeably narrow. There's no cure for autism, but treatments like speech or physical therapy, behavioral interventions, or medications may help with symptoms. They're not sure what causes the condition, but some people have been exploring the effect of maternal infection during pregnancy, and they are also looking toward increased advocacy and education that may prompt more people to get themselves or their children screened. But overall, about thirty and every one thousand children between the ages of five and eight have an autism diagnoses.
That's a lot. Thirty and one thousand, that is I just.
Hope none of these are misdiagnosis.
You know, it is true the screening practices.
And yes, it's like, oh, my kid isn't paying attention. Oh yes, yeah, they says I'm for ADHD or here's adderall here, you know.
You know, they do say it's easier to identify autism and males than in females because men tend to exhibit more overt symptoms. But eighty eight and autism are two different things, No, I know, yeah.
But I've just heard stories about people being misdiagnosed for both of those.
All right, Now, Trump and his allies are ramping up election fraud allegations in Pennsylvania. Seen this playbook, yes you have, And it's just like in twenty twenty, and they're spreading viral videos of supposed wrongdoing and they're promising supporters a legal showdown, and they're saying this could be used to contest the results of the election if he loses. You know, they have this whole campaign where they're talking about, you know, the election being stolen already.
It's called the Stop the Steel.
Movement, and that has re emerged and from months activists have been priming Trump supporters to believe the only way that Donald Trump can lose is through fraud, and so they're laying out proposals to wrought to thwart a potential Kamala Harris victory. They're planning to challenge results in court, pressuring lawmakers to block election certification. They're encouraging protests, and they're saying things like January sixth is going to be really fun, so just be prepared for that. It's a scary time, all right. Well, that is you're under the radar now, you know. We have the Way Up mixed at the top of the hour. Plus we have the Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, Tahsha Way, joining us today.
She's going to talk to us also about the election.
And there was record numbers for early voting in New Jersey, so we'll discuss that.
Its way up.
This says in the rooms.
From Industry Shade to all.
Of Gossip out send Angela's spieling.
That all right, as way Up with Angela Yee and it is time for your yet and let's do some diddy updates on what's going on there now. The Feds are saying that they did not get that video of Diddy beating his then girlfriend Cassie. What they are saying is an opposition to a motion that Diddy file tan that he believes the government gave the video to the popular cable news channel back in May to CNN, and they're saying it's not true because we didn't even have it yet. According to prosecutors, federal agents had searched for the video early in the investigation, but it disappeared from the hotel server and they didn't even see it again until CNN released the footage on May seventeenth. Then they actually had to get it from there, so it's not possible like Diddy's been claiming that they're the ones who leaked this footage. Now, Diddy also has a lot of people who are accusing him, a lot of anonymous accusers who are filing lawsuits, but now at least one of them has to reveal their name. According to new legal documents obtained by TMZ, a woman who is suing Ditty for an alleged sexual assault that she says happened twenty years ago, has to reveal her identity or her suit will be dismissed.
Right now. She is a Jane Doe.
Her lawsuit is one of the one hundred and twenty lawsuits that's been filed in Texas by Tony Busby. But although the alls are sensitive in nature, she has not shown she is entitled to remain anonymous.
They said. The woman is an adult who decided to follow a lawsuit.
In which she accuses a famous person of engaging in Heinu's conduct approximately twenty years ago. So she has to follow that complaint in her own name by November thirteenth, or that case will be thrown out of court. All right now, John Legend's longtime manager, Tyasti Glorius is saying that she attended a ditty party twenty seven years ago and is sharing her experience. She wrote a New York Times piece today about going to a New Year's Eve yachtbash in Saint Bart'ess with her brother. She had just graduated from college, and she said at the party, she recalls being directed into a bedroom by a man. She said she's not sure who the person was or if he was connected to Ditty, but she said that she started babbling nervously in response to this day, I can't remember how I managed to talk my way out of that terrifying situation. Perhaps my brother's on this boat and he's probably looking for me. She convinced them to unlock the bedroom door and let her go, so she said she thought it was just an anomaly due to just one guy behaving badly at a drunken party. But since seeing all of these things that have come out, she has changed her mind.
All right, A lot of things going on here.
Oh, and Kiki Palmer, you know she is sharing her own experiences. She recently told People magazine that while she was a teenager starring on True Jackson VP, she was in a secret relationship with a twenty year old man. She was only fifteen years old at the time. She said, I was trying to balance between being really young but also feeling quite mature. If I thought it was inappropriate, then I wouldn't have done it. Obviously I shouldn't have been fifteen dating no twenty year old.
But in my mind, I was like, I got a full time job.
Can't nobody understand me but a grown man, but he knew there was a lot of stuff that there's no damn way for me to understand a damn fifteen. So she just recently revealed that to People magazine, and she said it did take her years to understand that her romance with the older man and she didn't name wasn't appropriate until she started dating her now ex boyfriend Darius Jackson. And she said, until she experienced genuine love, that's she realized that that relationship was wrong. Fifteen dating a twenty year old. What twenty year old man would even want to date a fifteen year old? All right, Nicki Minaj andray J, we're on Live together. We already know this was going to be a very lively spirited conversation.
Did you watch this live?
Dan?
Did?
I definitely did all right?
Well.
In one of these clips, she's asking him about what happened, and he details what happens with Diddy's kids.
This time, I think I got loud and got aggressive, but it was the third time that's happened, and so I felt like I needed to like stand up for myself. Even though I was sorry and we was having a lot of crazy words. I was walking that way to avoid the issue, and that's what happened, and it's unfortunate. But what's dope is that we all got on the phone.
We talked for about thirty five minutes. You got you don't care about the.
Fence about it?
Well they did piece of it though.
They got on the phone, so we found that out and they talked for thirty five minutes. All right, Well that is your yeete. When we come back, we have asked yee. Eight hundred two nine two fifty one fifty is a number. Call us up any question you have. I'm here to help you out. That's eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty is the way up. Ooh, we love this song. Kilanie Jordan Otta Tunji is way out.
This one of me most famous women in radio radio women.
We're talking about Angela Ye.
You're way up with Angela yee. Please believe that it's.
Way up with Angela yee.
I'm here and normally we would be doing ask ye here, but today we do have some breaking news. And I see and I see this has been going crazy on social media. So Meghan the Stallion, in her words, a two hour Amazon Prime documentary is available and on here. They're talking about a lot of different things. It actually came out today. She talks about her mom, who was her role model, her coach, her confident, her number one fan, and she said that she now throws herself into work and partying. In the wake of her mother's death. She said, I just keep being lit thinking I get through the pain. She said twenty twenty was the worst year of her life. But she also admits that she lied when she was being interviewed by Gil King on CBS Mornings in a twenty twenty two interview. Now Here is what Megan thee Stallion said on her documentary.
Yes, I lied.
To Gil King.
First, I know that's going to ask me about She always gonna talk about the shooting.
Why did you ask me about the toy? That's not what this is about.
Even if I was like once maybe twice on drump Night, but you kept catching me out of my.
Mind, all right, So this is the first time she's saying that that did indeed happen. And if you're recalling the Gil King interview, gil King did press her about whether she had a sexual relationship. Here's what happened in that interview.
Did you have an intimate relationship with him, like sexual.
Yeah, I didn't have a sexual relationship with Tori.
So I guess she said.
What she's saying in this documentary is that it did catch her off guard that question, and she also says that none of that justifies her being shot and she did not deserve bullet wounds in her foot. So what do you think now that this has come out, Dan, Because she's maintained that they didn't have anything, there was a lot of rumors about what happened. Tory Lanez has said this that they did have a sexual relationship.
She was definitely caught off guard. But like, I don't know how we all lied about having sexual song before.
Yeah, I'm sure, I'm sure everybody has. But I guess in this particular situation because it's involving something that was so high profile legal case. In a legal case, it makes it a little different because you know, what sucks is that you could be caught off guard and you could lie about something, and when you do that one time, people think you lie about everything.
But this also doesn't have anything to do it doesn't.
But I'm just saying now, and like, if you look at the comments, you know, perception sometimes is going to be, oh, you weren't honest here, Well, how do we know?
And that's unfortunately how people are.
Like somebody could tell that could lie about a thousand things, tell the truth about one, and then people think you know everything and you're always telling the truth.
It just works that way.
But I do think in her own words in her documentary finally saying this, this is something that she put out there, you know, knowing, I'm sure that people are going to have a lot to say about it.
I'm sure her lawyers saw this before it went out too.
Right, So this is, you know, her personal thing. But anyway, you guys can definitely call and wait in for the last word. If you call up right now, we'll be taking your calls. We'll play it for last word. But when we come back, we have the Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, Tahsha Way, joining us, and we're going to be talking about early voting. She voted early the first day you could early vote. A lot of people voted early in New Jersey. I think across the board, a lot of people are taking advantage of early voting as they should. I voted early, you voted early, I did, I'm meant to do it. I'm gonna do it this weekend. I am going to vote early, all right, So eight hundred and two nine two fifty one fifty. We definitely want to hear what you have to say for last word. But Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey to Heeshawey is up next. Its way up, way up with Angela Yee. More now, what's up? Its way up with Angela Yee. And I am here with Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, Tahshaway. Welcome, Thanks for having me, Angela. What are your thoughts now seeing how the country and how people are reacting to the potential of having a black woman be president.
Yeah. Well, I'm going to take off my Secretary of State hat right because I have to, you know, operate on a different lane with that one. But I can just say it brings such pride, you know. I've been honored and blessed to serve as one of her campaign surrogates and the battlegrounds just making sure everyone understands who she is and what she can bring to the table. And I think that we're at a time in which we should not even be looking at the party or even if this is a male, a person of color, a female. We should just be looking at who is the most qualified to lead, who can set a standard Angela, you know, for our kids. I mentioned at that time when I was practicing, I was a county commissioner. I had three girls at that time. Now I have full you know, and one is ten years old. And you say to her, you say, to all of our kids, this is the highest position in the land. A standard should be set for our kids as to not only what can they become, but what you are supposed to do and what you're not supposed to do, how you are supposed to be treated others.
Right now, I am taking to Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, Tahisha Way.
I look at her qualifications, having been a district attorney, state Attorney general, fighting the fight just for the common people that everyday people, regardless of where you come from or who you are. I look at the standard of her, uh the sexually assaulted in it, you know, and not being a predator right and not tearing folk apart. And the thing about it is that if voters really look at her economic platform, it's for everyone right to make sure everybody can get ahead.
What are some of Kamala Harris's policies that matter to you the most.
I have two daughters who are older, who have graduated, and you know, you look at them and you know sometimes they have to think about Okay, I have to find a roommate nowadays, right in.
Terms eighty two or three. There you go, yeah, there you go.
And this is what our college graduates are facing. But you know one of her policies is to make rental more affordable banging home exactly. You know that that initial investment.
Student loan debt, dare you guys a big one right there.
And so when you really think about all of her policies so that everyone can get ahead and just have the simple idea of being valued, is you know what she you know and and it speaks from the heart.
Tahisha Way is here with us and we are talking about all things politics and making sure that you guys know that you can early vote starting now. The last day to vote is election day on Tuesday. More with Tahisha Way. When we come back, you want to know my name?
What's up?
His way up with Angela Yee and I am talking to Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, Tahsha Way. You know, I've heard people say that Donald Trump. The economy was better under Donald Trump, and they have more money in their pockets and gas with cheaper groceries with cheaper What do you say when people say.
That people should not fall for misinformation out there? And I think that people really have to remember the times under his tenure Economically, I don't think that we were better off. People say, oh, well, we received the checks. But everyone has to understand Congress was the one with Donald Trump just slapping his name and.
I didn't want that to happen. And Congress passed that and had those checks out. He actually delayed those checks that he could put his name on him exactly.
You know. I look at how three hundred thousand Black Americans were taken off of the healthcare roles, if you will, under his administration the first two years, that unemployment for African Americans was higher, and these are the things that again, we must continue to get that message out because these.
Are the facts.
Right now, I am taking to Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, Tahisha Way. Lastly, I saw you early voting, so we want to make sure that everybody knows to go out and vote.
You can vote early, So vote early. Yeah, vote early if you can.
Are you nervous about like seeing stories about ballot boxes set on fire?
And I thought about it.
I'm like, what happens to those ballots that get destroyed after that? Because I feel like that can make people feel concerned, like, well, I voted early and my vote got you know, my ballot got destroyed.
Now what happens?
Yeah. I can't, you know, speak about how every other state conducts their safety protocols or security protocols. I just know I'm loving the early vote records that we're setting in New Jersey. I also, you know, I reassure voters and from day one, ever since you know, I took office, I've sat down and this is not partisan. It's with all of the governmental law enforcement and safety folk from the FBI to Homeland Security, both federal, both state, both Attorney general offices and also usps IT folk just making sure that we shore up the integrity of our infrastructure and just making sure that you know our ballot boxes. We always tell voters they're twenty four to seven surveyed, right, and that they can track their ballots and to have like that open line of communication. This is a very consequential election, if not the most consequential election ever in our history. But at the same time, I still want to encourage voters to vote for or in for the school board elections. I want them to vote for the fire district or elections, all of the local races too.
I tell people, before you go, look at who's on your ballot, and that way when you go, you know who's running, you know who you want to vote for, and look it up ahead of time, so that when you go there's do you're not just like guessing or just picking something and the kindom you know, who your candidates are and who you're going to vote for. Well, thank you so much, Secretary of State of New Jersey, Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey, and maybe one day Governor.
I focus on what I do.
All right, Well, thank you so much again. You guys, make sure you get out and vote. Let's not play any games, y'all. You can watch that full interview on my YouTube channel with Tahitsha Way on, Way Up with Angela Yee.

Take up the phone, tappiing to get your voice.
Heard what the word is. Here's the last word on Way up with Angela.

Yes, it's way up at Angela Ye. Happy Thursday, Happy Halloween, everybody. There's a lot of activity up here. I heard, and I know people who are at work right now. People are dressed up around you, having a good time. There's a ton of candy up here in the studio right now. I actually am coming down off this candy high we have. I think a lot of us in this room have a candy addiction. I will say that much. A lot of us in this room really enjoy it.
But thank you. Everybody who calls in today and talk about love is blind with us.
That's fun. That's always a good time. Dan, you have to watch the full reunion ten.
Nights because the Yankees were on. That's why, you know, I mean, you know priorities.
Yeah, I saw Wendell Pierce was at the Yankees game. You know him from obviously from from the wire, and he said he never again the fans were so rude, throwing things. He said he was talking to a Dodgers fan and everybody got very angry and upset about that. That's crazy, all right. Well, anyway, of course, you guys, this is your show. We talked about a lot of different things. I know calls are still coming in about some of the topics we talked. We talked about Megan the Stallion's documentary which is out right now on Amazon, so make sure you guys check that out. But let's hear what y'all had to say, because again, like I said, this is your show.
Hey, angel Flusha. I think him is right because women like to put a lot of the genuine circlemstances on men as far when it comes to their family and how they're supposed to be treated and things like that and how they want to be treated. I think that if the parents came down for throw ten hours to get there, she could have spent a little bit more time. One nep would not have killed her to miss that day.
Hey, it's a joy.
I want to shine a light on my husband, Raymond. He out on the road dropping his truck making sure that me and the kids got a good light they I appreciate you and I love you and thank you so much for everything that you do.
