The Truth About "OutofService" & Lip Service Radio Revealed (Chapter 10 Part 2 of 2)

Chapter 10

“THE” CONFERENCE CALL...Moving on!

(Part Two)

On Wednesday, January 9, 2008 we all discovered that the team was short one member. Sukari and I once again came through for the host, holding it down for her during the segment titled “Women & Fertility”. Although the host held a sarcastic tone towards each member of the team and sometimes even calling a few team members names in the chat room Sukari and I both held our head high throughout the segment. As unbelievable as it may sound, the host threw cheap shots at each one of us starting with PB. On this particular night, the host seemed to be more interested in repeating derogatory comments being posted about PB in the chat box. It was evident that she was seeking to stir up drama rather than participating in the topic itself. I guess it was all for the ratings.

During the segment King Mac and I were exchanging text messages. We both were taken back by how the host was acting towards us. The host verbally attacked Sukari by making a very disrespectful & foul comment towards her as we discussed abortion. To no surprise, Sukari finished the segment without returning the insult, now that’s class.

Attempting to break the ice, toward the closing of the show I took the opportunity to change gears and reduce some of the friction in the air by announcing the verdict on whether or not King Mac, PB, Sukari & Amanda were going to be our official hosts for “Knockout Tuesday”. The host immediately pushed back by saying that the “Jury” had not come to a verdict and that King Mac & PB were still on “time out”. Apparently, she had other plans. It was evident that she was pulling “Rank” and we were all subject to her authority. Over the air, she wanted it to be known that she called all the shots. At the last minute, the host backed out of the agreemement without discussing her decision with the team prior to going live.

If you've been kind enough to follow my truth from chapter 1 you will agree that the host had every opportunity available to express her honest opinion in the matter plenty of times prior to the segment that night. However, she chose not to be forthcoming but rather submissively went along with the plans deceiving us all. At any rate, we ended the segment on a friendly note and we all agreed to jump on our regularly scheduled conference call after the show. Let truth be told, I discovered DURING THE SHOW that the host had changed her BTR password. At that very moment all of my speculations about her intentions were immediately confirmed. Her intent to renege on our agreement had been exposed and I had to take that unfortunate news to the conference call. I had been chosen to break the news to the rest of the team without any time to rehearse.

As each team member beeped into the conference call I shook my head with dissapointment. Although I greeted each member I remained quiet waiting for the host to join in on the call. After about 10 minutes she finally joined the call and the team instantly began taking turns expressing their disappointment; the show left a sour taste in all of our mouths to say the least and none of us were pleased with how we were treated during the show. In all fairness I asked that the host not be attacked all at once and recommended that we all took turns speaking our minds. J’ Hustle begin by letting it be known that he did not appreciate her calling him names and instead of the host being big enough to apologize she actually made the attempt to justify the name calling. King Mac was next, again she threw insults which caused everyone to speak at once. I spoke up and asked that everyone calm down; I candidly asked the host why she wasted our time in leading us on when she could have easily been honest from the get go. She played Ms. Simpleton by saying she never agreed to give the crew a night to host. In shock we all gasp and fell into laughter. We were all flabbergasted after hearing her deny her approval on the subject. Looking back now, we should have all agreed to dissagree as I noticed a pattern in the way the host was responding to everyne's questions. Refusing to give a straight and forward answer she tip toed around the questions provoking each team member by throwing insults towards certain individuals. It became clear that the issue would not resolve and the host was looking for a way out but didn't have the experience to pull it off in the tight situation.

To no surprise, PB spoke up by telling the host that he felt it was real shady of her to lead us all on etc., Amanda not wanting to rationalize or reason with the host verbally tore into her using her mouth as a weapon; her words being as sharp as a razor! To our surprise the host actually got sarcastic with Amanda AKA: “Papergirl” and toyed with her by antagonizing her even more so causing Amanda to attack even harder! I made countless efforts to hold my composure throughout the conference call as the chaos esculated. My ears were ringing and we were getting nowhere fast. Although I was well aware of her intentions I still expected the call to be civil but instead, hopes of remaining a team slowly declined. In the end, it would be the insult directed towards J’ Hustle that would seal the teams fate. Needless to say, I had heard enough and I was threw with playing games with the host. I said my final piece to the host and I disconnected the conference by hanging up!

King Mac immediately sent me a text message saying “Wow that was crazy!” I responded by saying “Yep”. He sent another text message saying that he and the team wanted to call back into the conference number asking that we all speak. I agreed to have the conference. Honestly at this point I was exhausted and very disappointed in the direction that the call went because I was hoping to resolve the issue and not end it on bad terms. If all of us going our seperate ways was going to be the end result I wanted to do so on good terms. We all jumped back on a conference call allowing each member the opportunity to vent in expressing their bitter opinions on what just took place. While being upset in the heat of the moment J' Hustle decided that he was going to share a pic of the host by sending it to King Mac & PB via MySpace message since they both asked the two of us out of curiosity what she looked like many times in the past. After all she maliciously disrespected him by calling him names and posted derogatory comments about him in the chat box. Amanda feeling left out also requested the pic be sent to her as well. I must be honest in saying that I was not at first in favor or agreement with his choice of sharing the pic with others, however J' Hustle is an adult and responsible for his own decisions. Where the pic emerged after that point on was out of his hands and was no longer in his control. PB and I stayed quiet at the beginning of the call in disbelief; I think the two of us were the most disappointed in the host. The others didn’t seem to be surprised in her behavior; however the two of us were in shock to say the least. I started the conference off by apologizing to the team and shared with them that I wanted to take a break from BTR for a short period of time because I had been putting my other projects aside not prioritizing my business appropriately which was somewhat effecting my productivity. King Mac immediately spoke up asking that I not take time off and expressed wanting to move forward as planned. At that moment PB seemed to have woken out of a deep sleep and started bad mouthing the host calling her every name in the book; as we all know PB is very verbal when referencing others and the host was no exception. He agreed with King Mac and asked that we move forward as well without the host of “OUTOFSERVICE”. Sukari and Amanda also shared the same interest in moving forward with our original plans. We all agreed that we would keep our original ideas and move forward with the birth of “Lip Service Radio”. I told the team that I would move forward under the terms and conditions that we would all stand strong as a team keeping an open line of communication and respect towards one another and told King Mac & PB that they couldn’t be falling out one day and not wanting to work together the next. If we were going to move forward with “Lip Service Radio” via blogtalkradio I wanted it to be taken seriously and we all needed to agree that we would not disrespect our callers and not talk over each other during segments. We all agreed to meet the terms and conditions ensuring that Lip Service Radio kept protocol & structure. The team at our high of excitement stayed on the conference until 7am PST/10am EST the following morning. Yes, the following morning! We all joked about it the next day that we all spent the night together. We laughed, we vented, J'Hustle fell asleep and woke up, we all bonded. I wish you could have been there to feel what I felt.

After getting some rest that morning on Thursday, January 10, 2008 it was decided later that afternoon to have our first show as “Lip Service Radio” segment titled “Sleeping with the Enemy” going live @ Midnight EST/9pm PST giving us the opportunity to briefly discuss what had taken place between “OUTOFSERVICE” & “Lip Service Radio”. The team agreed that we would not go into too much detail on the air and instead have our experience be told in a “Short Story” form allowing listeners to read the details at their leisure. King Mac and I quickly set up our BTR page and prepared for our fist segment. The rest is history.

The moment I disconnected the conference call was the same moment I cut the host off completely. Once I hung up I immediately deleted her as a "friend" on MySpace and moved full speed ahead. A lesson learned indeed!

that is not the point a**a...how many times have you allowed the drama to go on & on. it's not about losing interest in a topic or something that someone said, it's about setting the stage for the show longevity wise. i mean honestly what audience are you shooting for? no one over the age of 30 is going to want to listen to ***SERVICE or call in if it's known for having screaming matches only the very young & immature crowd will be interested. if that's what you're shooting for than i understand but my vision is a lot BIGGER and more prosperous as far as future ratings. i've been in the entertainment industry for sometime now and i fully understand how drama brings an audience however it's not the type of audience or element that i choose to associate with or be linked to. i'm too grown for all that and life is too short.

i fully understand "ratings" however, how many times do we need to listen to mac, paperboy and everyone else carry on about the same ole crap going back & forth? all the shows sound alike. i'm sure there are folks out there that love the drama but i'm simply bored with it and choose not to be a part of it. ***SERVICE should live up to it's name by aiming strictly for being known as the grown & sexy show. catering to the drama that is on all the other shows is not standing out from the rest and makes us no different. i'm sure that's why gary doesn't even call in anymore because it's child-splay...i have no doubt his time is more
valuable.

i'm not knocking your choice of feeding into the drama, if that's what rocks your boat then more power to you, however i'm not turned on by it so if the shows going to be about drama then it's probably best for me to bow out gracefully. honestly by allowing callers to disrespect & carry on about nonsense it sounds as if we have no control over ***SERVICE.

yea girl i had to bail...i honestly wasn't in the mood to sit there and listen to others swing their dick around you know, it's all so negative and pointless to me. malcom is 18 years "young" and the rest of us are in mid 20's & up, i find it very immature for us to even entertain the thought of going back & forth with him...it's drama. when i hung up i went to take a shower then went to bed...j' didn't hit it from the back so i'm not sure why he bailed on y'all.

do we have a show tonight? if so hopefully the conversation is more interesting & intellectual than it was last night.
