Cousins, ken folks, come on

00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:10.919
of You Know What It is,

3
00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:14.240
Construction. I'm your host, King
Hub. Thank you so much for joining

4
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:18.079
me today. Oh man, it's
a special day today, there's a special

5
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:21.600
day. Before I get into that, once again, I want to thank

6
00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:26.519
everyone for your support for all the
poor and support for the emails I received

yesterday, for everybody coming in saying
how glad they are the podcast is back.

8
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:34.880
I am so bad to be so
glad to be back with you all.

9
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:40.039
Listen, the hiatt was a bit
long. It really was, And

10
00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:43.439
I've had some who've asked, but, hey, what was going on during

11
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:47.039
your hiatus that you took off so
long. For the most part, the

12
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:51.679
short answer is I needed a break. I needed a mental break. But

13
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:58.679
in the future episode I will give
an entire full explanation of why I took

14
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:04.959
that hiatus, almost seeming when we
just kicked off the new season. So

15
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:08.239
don't worry, cousins and ken folks, We're going to get in there to

16
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:11.000
it, so just be patient with
me. Again. It's coming in the

17
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:15.280
future episode. But today we're not
talking about that today is a different day

18
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:21.239
altogether. Today is a day of
celebration. Now, don't get me wrong.

19
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:25.799
Every day should be a day of
celebration, you know, because the

20
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:30.599
almost I gave us the opportunity to
open our eyes again, the most I

21
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.200
gave us an opportunity to be the
breath of life in us again, to

22
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:38.400
see yet another day, to have
another opportunity to draw closer to Him and

23
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:46.040
to get it right. But today, April twenty third, twenty twenty four,

24
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.400
today, as most of you know, who of those of you who's

25
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:55.719
been following me, who knows today
it's a Queen's that Today, a queen

26
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:02.000
was born. Today, very wonderful
and special lady was born. And we're

27
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:08.840
talking about my tea lady, my
heartbeat, my mother, Xceella Overton.

28
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:16.039
Today is her birthday and we're celebrating
it today now. Although for those of

29
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:23.000
you who've been following me and they
know, my mother transitioned in twenty twenty

30
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:30.879
from COVID and I've had a difficult
time with that at some point here and

31
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:35.360
there. I still do have my
days here and there, but for the

32
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:40.280
most part, on today we're celebrating
her. Today's her birthday and we're celebrating

33
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:46.840
her special day today. Today's the
day of joy, Today's the day of

34
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:54.240
gladness. Today's day that we look
and we remember and we honor my tea

35
00:02:54.319 --> 00:03:00.439
lady, you know, Estella Overton. And the thing is, I could

36
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:05.240
even hear her laughter right now,
you know. And she had the most

37
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:08.159
wonderful, infectious laugh, you know, and it just george. And she

38
00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:12.039
had this big, beautiful smile.
But for some reason, I don't know

39
00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:15.039
why, for some reason, my
mom didn't like to smile a whole lot

40
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:17.840
or better, Yeah, she didn't
like to smile a whole lot in pictures.

41
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.639
And she's a beautiful woman. Oh
my god, My mom's a beautiful,

42
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:27.199
tall woman, you know. Uh, everyth melanding, you know,

43
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:30.840
tall, strong, you know.
Uh. They they definitely don't make them

44
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:35.000
like her, no more. Ah, they don't make them like that.

45
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:38.120
That that that cloth that my mam
is cut from. Yeah, they don't

46
00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:42.639
make them like that no more.
That that God only had a limited number

47
00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:46.840
of those when he he he he
formed and created her. And and and

48
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:52.280
that that that mold got thrown away, thrown in the sea of forgetfulness,

49
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:54.560
thrown in the bushes some dog on
where I don't know where it is,

50
00:03:54.599 --> 00:04:00.599
but they don't make them like that
no more. Now. She she had

51
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:05.199
no no, don't get me wrong
now and like none of it. Like

52
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:09.680
most of us, my mom was
a perfect like most like all of us

53
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:13.560
walk in this planet. You know, Uh, she wasn't perfect. She

54
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:17.959
did the best she could, but
she uh taught me and my sisters a

55
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:24.439
lot. She did. She you
know, gave us an amazing work ethic.

56
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:30.879
You know, I've seen my mom
like go to work like in the

57
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.879
rain, Like you've heard this,
You've heard the term, you know,

58
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:38.800
go to work rain, sleep,
snow or shine. She did that.

59
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:45.000
She did that. I've seen her
go to work in the rain. You

60
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:49.000
know, I've seen her go to
work when it's it's snowing. I've seen

61
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:54.439
her going to work, you know, just bust her tail off five I

62
00:04:54.480 --> 00:05:00.279
mean mostly six days a week to
make sure that she, to Kim,

63
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:05.759
was being able to provide for her
family. She did that. She gave

64
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:11.439
us an amazing work ethic, you
know, my sisters and I she poured

65
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:16.480
into everybody who she was around,
and my mom had she had again can

66
00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:20.839
said, a real infectious personality.
Also, I don't She's never met a

67
00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:30.720
stranger ever, never met a stranger. I've seen my mom in Walmart and

68
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:36.680
strangers will come up to and just
strike up a whole conversation and then five

69
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:41.360
or six minutes later, they're sitting
there laughing like they have known each other

70
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:44.560
for thirty years and this is the
first time they've seen each other in years,

71
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:49.600
and they are going to town,
do you hear me? And it

72
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:54.000
always fascinated me when I saw that. But that was just her, That

73
00:05:54.120 --> 00:06:01.920
was her personality. That was the
kind of of or she had when she

74
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:14.279
was around people, you know,
and she had that that that it My

75
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:21.839
great my my great grandmother was the
matriarch of the family. So that mantle

76
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:31.879
that's passed down from generation and generation
from the among the women s. Somehow

77
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:36.639
or another, I don't know,
if she just didn't want it or whatever

78
00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:45.360
the case may be, it bypassed
my grandmother and it went to my mom.

79
00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:53.680
So my mom became like the central
and center focus of everybody and everything

80
00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:59.600
in the family. Uh, if
something needed done, my mom was who

81
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:04.279
they called you maybe in between homes
at that particular time. It just made

82
00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:06.680
they need a place to stay until
you get back on your feet. That

83
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:11.680
was my mama's house. Uh,
my mama's house was where we met up

84
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:14.759
on holidays, not just her ch
us, her children, but that's where

85
00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:20.279
the family came to on the holidays
for for July, Thanksgiving, Memorial Day,

86
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:27.000
Christmas. It was done and had
at my mom's house. So her

87
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:32.959
so what whatever that that thing is
that for that mantle was passed down to

88
00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:41.319
her and she assumed it and she
I I'd have to say, she she

89
00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:47.160
was built for it. She was
and it was just it just amazed me,

90
00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:54.959
you know that she would uh could
handle that. My mom was one

91
00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:58.759
of the most intelligent women that I've
known in my life, considering the fact

92
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:05.160
that she only had a fourth grade
education. Yeah, you heard me correctly,

93
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:07.879
cousins and ken folks for those of
you who don't know, my mom

94
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:11.800
only had a fourth grade education.
But she was one of the most intelligent

95
00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:16.600
women I've known in my life.
She wasn't good at a lot of things

96
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:24.160
if you just looking at books,
since books smart or whatever whatnot, but

97
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:31.320
she had everything else. I've sit
and I've watched her calculate with precision in

98
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:37.519
her head. I've seen her at
the bank, you know, work with

99
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:45.720
them about loans and the percentages of
whatnot. I've watched her sit here,

100
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:50.240
you know, and and calculate and
talk with realtor about the interest rate and

101
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:56.360
the market value of a home and
that thirty year mortgage, and that the

102
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:01.279
difference between a thirty year and the
twenty five year. Morga I said,

103
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:05.799
I've watched her do this, and
if you listen to you would swear up

104
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:09.559
and up and down. She has
a college degree. Oh she went to

105
00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:13.840
college for all of that shit she
does, but she did not. One

106
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:20.000
of the most intelligent people I've known
in my life where I've ever seen that

107
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:30.039
was my mom. She pushed us
to always do and be better than her.

108
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.799
It's like most like most of us
should do. As parents. We

109
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:39.600
should want our children to do better
than us, cause that's that's that's all.

110
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:41.919
That's how it's supposed to be.
That's a part of that. We

111
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:46.919
want however far or whatever we've been
able to accomplish in life. Sh they

112
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.639
should. We should want that for
our children to go above and beyond what

113
00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:56.720
we have done. And she did
that. She can still live into us,

114
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:03.159
especially me. I'm the first born, so of course a lot of

115
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:11.879
that was fell on me initially first
because I'm the oldest grandchild for my grandmother

116
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:18.879
and I'm the first one to graduate
from high school and go to college,

117
00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:24.519
so that was a lot of pressure
on me. But it was until the

118
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:31.360
point of constantly nagging or anything of
their particular nature, you know. But

119
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:35.399
it was the fact that she wanted
to see that. My grandmother wanted to

120
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:39.480
see that, and they poured into
me to ensure that I did that,

121
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:52.200
and I did and it made them
both so very proud. My mama was

122
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:54.840
hard in her ways, but she
was fair at the same time, you

123
00:10:54.919 --> 00:11:05.360
know, but she had a knack
to of also, I guess, like

124
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:11.759
most really good mothers, drawing in
more children. Because all of my friends

125
00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:18.200
looked at and called my mom mama, so she was. She was like

126
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:24.840
a second mom to all of my
friends, you know, and they a

127
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:28.399
lot of them still ask about her
to this day, or or hey,

128
00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:31.720
you remember when your mama did this, this and the third you member it

129
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:35.440
was at your house, and how
your mom used to sit there and always

130
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:39.240
made sure that we ate and everything. Because she was that type of mom,

131
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.000
you know. She when she cooked
and everything and my friends came back,

132
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:45.440
they were there. She would just
call me into the house and send

133
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.639
them home and then I eat it
whatever, don't She fed them, she

134
00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:52.200
knew them all by name. But
come on in him and come on,

135
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:54.480
go in and wash your hands,
come on here and fix you up plate.

136
00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:01.480
Yeah she did. And my friends
were like her other her other children,

137
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.200
because if she came to the school
to uh see me a check up

138
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.440
on my grades or whatever, or
she came to a PTA meeting or whatever

139
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:15.879
the case may be, she checking
in on them too. Hey what his

140
00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:18.159
grades look like? What you've been
doing? You know better than that,

141
00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:22.240
I might talk to your mama.
Oh okay, then oh you've been acting

142
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:26.960
up in class? Yeah, that
was my mom. That was my mom.

143
00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:31.080
She was She was a second mom, told of my friends, and

144
00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:37.840
in many ways, she was like
the neighborhood mom. You know, every

145
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:41.799
every every really good community has one
of those, a neighborhood mom and a

146
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:50.519
neighborhood dad that just all of the
kids and the parents gravitate too. So

147
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:54.200
that's that's going back to connecting what
I told you about. Whatever that mantle

148
00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:56.879
that was passed down from my great
grandmother to my mama, whatever that is

149
00:12:56.919 --> 00:13:03.080
that it is, they recognized because
again My great grandmama was the same way.

150
00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:07.559
When she was living. You know, she was the neighborhood mom.

151
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:13.000
Everybody, including their parents, they
came to her four things, or about

152
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:18.039
something, or advice about something.
They came to my great grandmother, and

153
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:24.000
in turn, everybody in my neighborhood
came to my mom about stuff. You

154
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:30.799
know, so she she knew what
it was, She embraced it, and

155
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:37.879
she she took it to town.
She did. She loved people. She

156
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:41.919
had a great love for people.
If she didn't like you, she'd let

157
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:45.879
you know. She would be playing
and clear. She would literally if she

158
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:50.399
didn't like you. There weren't many
people who came along that my mom uh

159
00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:56.679
instantly disliked. But if you did
certain things to her or her family or

160
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:03.120
especially her children, of dude,
that's a rap. She gonna let you

161
00:14:03.240 --> 00:14:07.039
know that she don't like you.
She gonna make sure that you know that

162
00:14:07.080 --> 00:14:11.759
she don't by any means, she
will cut you out three ways past Sunday

163
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:15.759
and baby. When my mom was
younger, my mama was cut cussed with

164
00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:20.600
the best of'em. She taught
us. We listened to her. She

165
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:24.879
taught us. Now, although I
don't really cuss a lot anyone. And

166
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:30.879
I've worked very hard over the years
too not to do so, and I'm

167
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:35.360
grateful for that. But and my
mom did it. My mom did also.

168
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:37.879
But Baby, when she was younger
cousins of Kim folks, do you

169
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:41.080
hear me cussed with the best of
them? She made up cuss words.

170
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:46.039
You be like, wait, is
that even a word? Or she'll put

171
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:50.639
two cuss words together, or and
it's since that she like, wait that

172
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:54.360
tho, those don't even go together? But it did when you heard it

173
00:14:54.360 --> 00:15:00.120
from her. You did, you
did when you heard it from her,

174
00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:05.080
man, I promise you. But
she had this light about her though,

175
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:09.480
that people just loved. They truly
did. She was she was warm soul

176
00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:20.679
when she when my dad died and
she gave her life to God. She

177
00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:24.519
always did believe in God. Don't
get me wrong, she always did believe

178
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:30.200
in God. But when she truly
gave her life to God, you begin

179
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:33.120
to s to see a true change
in her. Then it was like her

180
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:41.240
true purpose beginning at that moment,
because she she found her church home and

181
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:50.919
she was completely devoted to being a
better her, preparing her soul for the

182
00:15:52.039 --> 00:16:00.200
afterlife and doing whatever it takes doing
whatever it took to be a good Cristest,

183
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:08.360
to be a good person, to
be a good neighbor, and to

184
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:14.399
be a good church member. She
did all of those things. I mean,

185
00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:17.759
her life completely changed around. I
mean, she was doing things in

186
00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:26.919
the community. She was very active
in her church. She became one of

187
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:32.600
the not probably not the at her
church. From what I understand, she

188
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:38.559
became the youngest to be elected to
the motherboard, even though she wasn't at

189
00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:42.559
the age yet to where that once
that she would be elected to it.

190
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.559
But she had done the work and
she was still doing the work and they

191
00:16:45.720 --> 00:16:55.039
recognized it, and she was elected
to the motherboard before the age of seventy.

192
00:16:55.799 --> 00:17:02.399
That was amazing for in her church. And she she was the epitome

193
00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:07.200
of what a church mother should do
or what a church mother is. She

194
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:14.839
was the epitome of that. And
she didn't take her role or her activities

195
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:18.359
in the church. She never took
them lightly. She never took her relationship

196
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:22.200
with God lightly. Again, when
she gave her life to God, she

197
00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:26.559
truly did. And you begin to
see the change in her, you know,

198
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:30.519
you begin to see, you know, her development and her relationship with

199
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:36.279
God because she so began to see
it in her everyday actions, you begin

200
00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:48.079
to see her shine. And that's
an amazing thing. You know, like

201
00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:52.240
all of us, we have our
quirks and our faults here there, but

202
00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:57.880
that's not the case. That's not
the point or the thing in being a

203
00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:03.480
believer and that she's supposed to be
perfect or anything of that nature. Know,

204
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:11.319
you having a relationship with God is
you know, you're working every day

205
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:17.480
to draw closer to Him, to
have that relationship with him, to do

206
00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:23.000
and be better than you were the
day before. And she she did that.

207
00:18:25.880 --> 00:18:30.480
She was doing that each and every
day, and I couldn't be more

208
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:40.319
proud of her. I mean,
she she singing the evolution of her over

209
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:45.279
the years or and and just even
sitting back right now remembering it, it's

210
00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:49.880
leaps and bounds. It leaps and
bounds. It is what we should strive

211
00:18:51.039 --> 00:19:02.119
for as people. We all have
w certain periods in our life that we

212
00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:08.640
are but we should continue to keep
growing and evolving. We should never stop

213
00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:18.119
trying to evolve in life. The
day we should stop evolving is today,

214
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:25.680
the most high transition us from this
world to the next. That's when it

215
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:30.480
should stop. It should never stop
until then we should be ever evolving,

216
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:40.119
each end, every day we should. So I miss you, Mama,

217
00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:45.079
I do. I'm not sad today
or or anything. I am full of

218
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:51.519
joy. I've had my moment after
midnight last night when her birthday hit.

219
00:19:52.200 --> 00:20:02.440
I had my moment, and I'm
okay. I am truly happy to celebrate

220
00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:11.319
her born day today because without her
coming into this world, my sisters,

221
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:22.000
I, our children, we wouldn't
be here because we're her legacy. We're

222
00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:29.160
her legacy. We wouldn't be here. And the lessons that she taught us

223
00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:33.839
and the way that the things that
she poured into us never forget it,

224
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:42.119
we never forget it. It's it's
it was an amazing, phenomenal woman who

225
00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:47.119
she loved. She loved her family, she loved her community, she loved

226
00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:56.559
people period, and she loved God. That cousins and ken folks is the

227
00:20:56.599 --> 00:21:02.440
epitome of currently under construction, of
being and under construction, that is the

228
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:12.880
epitome of it. That is the
epitome of it. Estella Overton, you
