00:00Look, you got your own legal class now in Georgia.
00:07Can you tell us about it?
00:08Yeah, they did a legal life of Issa Rae at University of Georgia, Professor Mount Ivory,
00:14they just finished it up, but it's all my business.
00:16But do you, I wonder, do you give a lot of people like real advice, because there's a
00:21lot of people signing contracts, like the next generation of Hollywood, do you feel
00:25like that was like something that you could do for the future?
00:28Absolutely.
00:29That's going to be the future of entertainment lawyers, and yeah, if you're interested in
00:35any facet of the entertainment business, the real business, that's the course.
00:39Would we ever see you in a real professorship in the future?
00:43That's not mine.
00:44My mom's the teacher, not me.
00:47See, mom's the teacher, okay.
00:49But maybe that's where the idea kind of connected?
00:53Yeah, anything for education, I'm with it.
00:55Well we love you, and I gotta know.
00:58We just had a really big, monumental election.
01:02Any thoughts on moving forward, and do celebrity endorsements even mean anything anymore?
01:08They don't, they don't.
01:09It's really about the people and what the people want, and the people have chosen, and
01:12their sex.
01:13I think it's a terrible decision, but...
01:16Well listen, listen, we'll figure it out, you know?
01:20Hey, thank you so much.
01:21I think the course is amazing.
01:22I appreciate it.
