Starting point is 00:03:05 Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Don't be out here acting like a donkey. Hee-haw, bitch. Hee-haw. It's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a big boy. I can take it. If you feel I deserve it, ain't no big deal.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I know Charlamagne Tha God gonna have some funny shit. Say out his mouth. If you gotta say something you may not agree with, doesn't mean I mean it. Who's getting that donkey? That donkey. That donkey. Donkey. Donkey.

Starting point is 00:03:54 This story today is a prime example of why an idol mind is the devil's workshop, you know? I was having a conversation recently with Uncle Ruckus. Dropping the clues bombs for Uncle Ruckus. Yes, Uncle Ruckus from Whitcrush. He's a real person. And Uncle Ruckus told me, and I quote,
Starting point is 00:04:11 not too many things more dangerous on this planet than a bored nigga. Okay, only thing more dangerous than one bored nigga is two bored niggas. And that's exactly what Robert Stokes
Starting point is 00:04:21 and Sharnell Gunn are. Two bored niggas who clearly don't have anything better to do because on Monday, they set fire to an apartment complex called the Reserve at La Vista. For no reason other than sheer boredom. Let's go to WSB Channel 2 for the report, please. We now know investigators believe fireworks sparked the first flames that grew through this apartment complex, eating through entire rows of units, leaving hundreds homeless. November, fireworks, not a holiday.
Starting point is 00:04:49 I live on the fourth floor. I heard a big bang. I showed people who lived here the mug shots of the two people police say lit the fireworks on the rooftop of the apartment building, Sharnell Gunn and Robert Stokes. The complex is called the Reserve at La Vista Walk. The alarms started sounding around 10.30 Friday night. Bang in door, get out. It's a fire. It is a fire. Outside, Atlanta Police Chief Darren Sheerbaum told us one of his officers lives here and lost all of his belongings and his cat.
Starting point is 00:05:19 We continue to meet new people on the street who lost everything. Some, like Miles Wilson, were trying to find a place to go through the Red Cross. Pointing out, the two jailed for doing this have a roof in bed tonight. Unlike them. That was definitely a poor decision. Them displacing all these people out of their homes now. It is a travesty. I mean, to say the least.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Fireworks. Roman candles. Sparklers. Cherry bombs. Friday wasn't no damn holiday. It wasn't Fourth of July. It wasn't no damn holiday Wasn't 4th of July Wasn't Kwanzaa, New Year's Eve It's still a couple of months away
Starting point is 00:05:49 Was y'all doing a gender reveal? This had to be a gender reveal Was y'all shooting fireworks to celebrate the fact that you're going to eat good next week? What the hell were two grown ass humans Born in the 1900s Doing on top of a roof Shooting fireworks I already told you what's the reason
Starting point is 00:06:03 Boredom Boredom is simply the desire for desires. All right, these two desired to do something, and since they had nothing else to do, they decided to go shoot fireworks on the roof. I thought to myself, what drug could they have possibly been on? And then it dawned on me, probably none.
Starting point is 00:06:20 If they had drugs to do, then they wouldn't be doing this. This is just cartoon-level mischief. All right, this is Bart Simpson at Milhouse. This is Ren and Stimpy. This is Pinky and the Devil Damn Brain. Do y'all have jobs? Huh? If not, it's the holidays, okay?
Starting point is 00:06:34 You can get you a little seasonal temporary job at Target. All right, I did my research this morning, and by research, I mean Google. It's a lot of seasonal temp jobs in Atlanta. Ferragamo hiring, Burlington, Crate and Barrel, Jimmy Jazz, Armani. Oh, if it's work, you can find some, all right? If you want work, you can find some work. But y'all don't want to work. Y'all want to shoot fireworks.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Okay, 28 people displaced with major damage to the apartment complex's upper floors. 17 people treated for smoke inhalation and other non-life-threatening injuries. And if that's not enough, you heard on the news report one cat dead okay you bored niggas killed a cat do you understand the levels of niggatry that have to be achieved in order for you to kill something that has nine lives i'm dead serious when i say this okay so many problems get caused because of boredom we in a world where people are more connected than they have ever been, but still can't find anything to do. How about read? Pick up a book.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Black Thought was just here. You can read his book. Okay, read an article about something you're into. Just stimulate your brain in some way, shape, or form. Hey, man, how about get some rest? Okay, whenever you think about, you know, wanting to do something stupid, just go to sleep. Okay, one of y'all said, hey, let's go shoot some fireworks on the roof. The other should have said, nah, let's take a nap.
Starting point is 00:07:51 I promise you rest helps. Okay, make sure you recharge your brain. You got to find a balance between structured activities and intimate rest time. It'll increase your creative thinking. Get outdoors. Okay, I don't mean outside on the roof to shoot fireworks. Go walk around the park. Take your shoes off.
