[Bit 1]

Thank you. So I just had an employee call me and say he wasn't going to finish new higher orientation.

He couldn't get through the multicultural diversity training.

He said his policy is if I can't spell it,

I'm not participating in it, which I thought was pretty cool,

but I never would have guessed this guy could have spelled incestuous.

[Bit 2]

So getting through multicultural diversity training,

it's always really hard because you hear about all these things that

certain groups of people can say that you can't get away with.

For example, Tony can say fag, my ex-mother-in-law can say fucking cunt,

and the one thing that black people can say that white people just can't get away with,

we all know what that is, my life matters.
