A group of friends are excited for football Sunday, supporting the Eagles. They discuss the stress levels and challenges of sports betting. One of the friends, Lili, talks about her passion for her nonprofit that supports wrongfully incarcerated individuals. She shares her personal experience with her husband's wrongful incarceration and the difficulties they face. They discuss the lack of support for reentry into society and the profit-driven nature of the prison system. Lili plans to continue advocating for this cause even after her husband is released. They also talk about natural remedies and the growing awareness of the negative effects of pharmaceutical drugs. They end the conversation on a positive note, expressing support and excitement for each other's endeavors. Hello, we're super excited. Pretty good. You know, it's football Sunday, so ready to rock. Yes, but my team is playing tomorrow. Let's go Eagles. Go Birds. This is our year. Thank you. No negativity. Well, please, ladies, join the Eagle Squad. Like, we are welcoming you with open arms. You know, the only rule is we hate the cowgirls, so if you can get with that, you can get with us. Yes. Wow. You know, they're not supposed to really tackle anyone. The only negative thing is the stress level, because, you know, my anxiety is already through the roof, and it's, like, not good. And then sports betting, you know, throw that into the mix, and whew. Yes. Girl, yes. And it's not technically legal in North Carolina, so you have to find, like, these bootleg sites that use their own currency and then bet that way and then, you know, switch it over to real currency, and it's a hassle. But, you know, we're rocking and rolling. We make it work. All right. Nice. I'm going to cry. Self-care Sunday. Chantel, are you going to take it away, or should I? Yeah. Yeah. We're just animal parents. You got it. Yeah. We need hyper girls, yes. Yes. So I'm Lili. It's my first time speaking with Ms. Chantel, but, you know, you and I, JB, have known each other for years, friends from day one, goofy from the start. So, you know, every time we get together, it's really a great time, and we just have a whole lot of laughs. Personally, I'm very passionate in regards to my nonprofit, so I do have a nonprofit that centers around the wrongfully incarcerated, you know, individuals that are part of the system that really just need those resources and help for when they reenter society and that voice that's going to advocate for them. Stemming from my own life, actually, my husband fell victim to wrongful incarceration, so it's something that I'm very vocal about, very passionate about, and it's something that, you know, as a society, we need to stand up more and just be more aware of the injustices that go on. Yes, hard work, but, you know, it's just so worth it, and we really take a lot for granted as far as what we're blessed with, so. Yeah. Absolutely, and, you know, even if it's, oh, I didn't mean to cut you off, but I was just going to say, you know, people that I talk to, even if it doesn't directly apply to them or they've never been in the same scenario, you know, one out of every three people either knows somebody or knows somebody that knows somebody that's incarcerated, so it really does affect more people than you realize. Well, I would say, you know, the personal aspect, the fact that it is my husband and that it's an uphill battle and it's just, it's very hard on the both of us. You know, relationships are hard as it is already, so just add the extra stressor of them being behind bars and then knowing that they're innocent and having to prove that innocence and, you know, it's not a safe place, it's not a walk in the park, it's just, you know, I feel like the time and the money and the effort, you know, those are all hard things that go into it, but the worst thing is really just, you know, knowing that it can change him and people that are, you know, behind bars because it's stressful. You can take somebody that is positive, kind, never been in trouble before, you know, lends a helping hand to anybody, heart of gold, you know, boisterous laugh, smile, lights up the room, and you place them in hell and you expect them to get out and go back to the way they were. I mean, it's not going to happen, you know, so there's that mental toll as well that's a constant uphill battle and that lasts long after the, you know, time incarcerated lasts, so I think just knowing that and having to fight for that is probably the hardest. Right. Right, absolutely, and, you know, it's a billion dollar industry, like, let's cut right to the chase. They want people to come back into the system over and over again because that's how they make their money, and there's very few outlets to help individuals to, you know, reenter into society to get back to making money, providing for their family, you know, even having mental health support, rehabilitation for drug addiction. I mean, there's hardly any of that, and it's just, you know, it's a vicious cycle. Right. Right. Right. Yeah, and I mean, that is the case here, too, but you're right, it is custody level. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Thank you. Thank you, yeah, and it's not going to stop here. You know, once he gets home, we both plan to be heavily involved in this, you know, for years to come, so it's super teamwork, but thank you. I'm going to be downer on the show. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, heart attack, cancer, stroke, aneurysm. Your leg falls off. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's amazing, and I feel like if anybody's business is going to take off, it's yours because you're just so passionate and invested. I mean, over the years that I've known you, you give 110% and, you know, your whole heart into everything that you do, and it is important. I mean, nowadays more people are becoming aware that, you know, these pharmaceutical drugs are not good, and they are turning to more of like a natural remedy, natural medicine. So how has that been going since you started? That's amazing. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's awesome. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Oh, no. Mm-hmm. Right. Mm-hmm. Well, that's an interesting observation. I mean, kudos to you for paying attention and, like, adapting to the consumer spending habits. Right. Right. Oh, wow. Demon time. Yes. Demon time. Look at you. Thank you. Oh, my God. Like, oh, you want to take a bath, huh? Oh, wow. Mm-hmm. Well, good luck with that. Yes. I think it went great. Absolutely. It was nice meeting you, too, Chantel. I'm excited. I feel like we all vibe really well. Bye.
