Kevin Samuels Discussion Thread

What's the name of the show he keeps referring to about the men vs women on the Island? And what season is he talking about?

Reps on deck

He actually posted it on his YouTube page. I’m telling you because I don’t remember.

Bear Grylls

Popular show in the UK.
He basically has a camera crew follow him around while he survives in the wild in different territories

The good most certainly outweighs the bad when it comes to Kev.

He’s a net positive for the community. We need more truth tellers. We need to bring shame back. We need our men and women to challenge themselves to be the best versions of themselves.

The community benefits from all those things.

He has challenged his listeners to become the best versions of themselves and work within reason. My wife and him are the main reasons why I’m studying hard for the GRE to get into a planning school and embark on a career as a planner. I want to do more technical work and get paid better than I am now.

Beat grylls 'the island' season 2.

Here's a short breakdown of what happened

 

[jeff8]

@airyoda on Instagram: ““Hate him or love him” we really don’t know him. “ who is Kevin samuels “”

Apparently this guy spoke to Kevin’s “ex-wife”.

Also, according to this guy, Kevin is “hurting a lot of women.”

This guy sounds like a simp.

 

[Nigerianwonder]

So what happen him being exposed?

If they had receipts they would have been out by now the way his haters are obsessed with him.

Dude a loser and limited his comments. That could be anybody on the other.

I wonder what this woman hoped to accomplished in this discourse with him? I got to say, I genuinely enjoyed this segment with Mr. Samuels though. It’s nice to see him in conversations like this, where it is obvious he is drawing on the knowledge of his experience and education. He shows how learned he is in many ways when he is holding his own. Sometimes I listen to these shows and I just tell myself he persists with certain callers – when it is apparent they are not willing to listen – because it may be good for views. Otherwise, I do not see how he has the patience to keep listening to them beyond a certain point.

The point he made with the young lady on the same show about plumbers was equally frustrating. It could be because I’ve been married and out of the dating pool for a long time, but I didn’t know there was this apparent lack of love for tradesmen. Straight up, why would a woman look down on a plumber? Electrician? Carpenter? Farmer? A man who is straight up working with his hands. I agree with Kevin when he says men have civilized society to the point people have forgotten what real life looks like, as in trying to stay alive day-to-day, just like every other animal. We get to turn our attention to cultivating entertainment and society niceties because we aren’t tasked with constantly worrying what we will eat or how we will stay warm. Much of the conveniences we demand and enjoy and take for granted now are still built upon a basic foundational infrastructure for life.

As I said in a previous post last year, even the man making six figures in his office job has to rely on the services of these tradesmen when life gets real and the basic things he needs to live are lost to him – i.e. working lights, running water, operable vehicle and the like. It has crossed my mind that even with the complete fiasco that is life in certain parts of Texas right now, the men who have so-called “dirty jobs” may likely be more equipped to deal right now than many who have not; furthermore, women and children who are living under the roof with these men are benefitting from his knowledge, leadership and expertise, as a result, and I’m sure his friends and associates may be trying to reach out to him to get his take on how they can handle themselves until services are restored. Right now, a plumber (or any tradesmen) who has the hand skill to survive the mess is in a better position than someone making bank whose money means relatively nothing to him or his in this moment.

I could be wrong though.

To his point about black male teachers, I swear, the older I get, the more I realize how blessed I was as a kid. I totally took for granted having majority black teachers. Having a white teacher of any kind was out of the norm for me, and having black men teaching us was just par for the course. My principals were black men, my ROTC teachers were black men, my drafting and electrician teachers were black men, my computer science teachers were black men, my Spanish teachers were black men and my chemistry teacher was a black man, too. Hell, even my orchestra teacher (not band) was a black man, teaching us crazy ass kids how to play concertos and tune our stringed instruments. When I got to my HBCU, this standard of being taught by black men continued. This was a norm for many of us in the 80s and 90s in Atlanta, and it never occurred to me other kids were getting anything else or that anything else was supposedly better. I never considered how just having all those black men in the classroom shaped my perception of black men or my own self-esteem.

I look forward to his show about The Black Tax and seeing what he drops there. For all the flack he gets, I think Mr. Samuels gives his audience a lot to ponder than the obvious advice for black women and relationships.

Dropped gems here breh.. Especially about black teachers.. I may even have to listen to Samuels now.. Because the only thing these dudes seem to like about him is how he disrespects women..

They need to leave that grown ass man alone smh. shyt is beyond sad at this point.

The man is 51 years old being harassed by black men and women in their mid 20s and 30s. What has black society become?

They did the same thing to Shahrazad Ali and she held strong. That woman was a true blessing and she called this shyt back in the 80s and early 90s.

What women don't understand, times are getting hard, companies are not hiring, more ppl are being laid off, food is becoming scarce (which aint real food anyways), water supply is getting low, or tampered with, instead of bashing black men or attacking men, etc, one would think that they should be trying to get with a black man, just for survival and protection, doing these times that we are in, and heading down, shyt aint getting any better.

shyt is breaking down - Next coming will be a black-out (No Internet) for 2-3 weeks. I'm waiting on this to happen

Houston was a very good test/wake up, with the shyt that they are going through NOW, next time it will be longer than 2-3 days that shyt is all fukked up. 2-3 months or 2-3 years with shyt fukked up and depleted, and it's not just the city of Houston, could be the whole Southern region or 3-5 States, being a single black woman in this situation, it'll be tough to make it through.

Cut down a tree black woman or cut log, (I've never seen it). (that's to start fire)

And you're a woman single with 2-3 kids, hell just single, will be a tough stretch trying to survive this by yourself. (in 18 degree weather)

Getting a man, having a man in the next 2-3 years will be very vital...and black men need to brush up on their survival skills.

But let's bash a 51 year who are trying to put black families back together, which in this time is very needed

Can't post on IG when the internet is out, and you tryin to find food or make food

Great post

That interview had me thinking as well, adding the situation going on in Houston and seeing how a patna of mines called me and asking how to defroze his kitchen sink. I stated to him, why didn't he prepare the night before and buddy had no answer, and he has a family to take care of.

That had me to really revert back to KS convo with the white lady about surviving without the normal resources and woman (and here some men) are not ready for what's to come down the pipe.

We need each other is the norm statement but black women need black men more so.

Black kids need to see and have black men teachers

 

[The Radiant One]

So some dude named poorblackdude or something like that, said he was gonna interview a dude that Kevin was cool with. Dude said that he spent over 10k with KS and wasn’t happy with the services.

Then dude has a pic of Kevin’s mugshot and says he was only making 45k at 39 years old working at Office Depot. Making fun about him getting evicted and couldn’t pay $600 rent.

I really don’t see why men are getting into this with KS? Why are men in their feelings by what he says when there are channels that bash black men for them simply being black?

Them nikkas be quiet as a mouse when it comes to the divesters, but ready to come for a black man that at least sounds like he wants to big up other black men.

KS was like the only one besides maybe Tariq to go at these divesting and delusional chicks, but other men act like bytches and want to help them because they suckas and want brownie points.

I don’t see what these dudes gain from this and it’s fukkin pathetic to me.

It's hilarious Kevin said himself that he was broke and he failed. High Value men are made not born.

He is now making very good money just off instagram and Youtube plus his fragrance sells.

I love how the goal post changes from being gay -> being divorced twice -> not paying support to his adult step daughter -> well he's rich now but used to be broke.

Bezos got a loan and was working in a garage but no one questions him.

Dave Ramsey filed bankruptcy TWICE but no one says why should they listen to someone who filed bankruptcy twice.

Based off his youtube stats he is making 1 million a year.

just proving his point. Black Men gotta perfect to be able to voice an opinion. Black men’s faults are seen as proof of them being defected. Women’s faults are proof of them being strong and righteous


But it’s normal for men to go broke, get rich, go broke again and then get rich again. Men will do shytty jobs to eat. B

 

[Hacksaw Jim Thuggin]

Y’all nikkas either love drama or need help with p*ssy because I can’t understand why this has 551 pages.
Tariq 2.0 the remix have fun brehs

This is such a shytty take....

Everyone needs knowledge or help with something.....

So you good with women? Awesome....
I bet there’s something else you don’t everything about....

So would it be cool for someone to clown you for seeking out help for something you aren’t great at?

Cats need to grow up....seriously

These females are CIA agents in training, "poorblackdude" may not even be a black dude
