3. He's interviewing him for the whole show.
They are talking about the history of African Americans and race relations.

West said when banks and Wall Street complain, they were give billions. When the poor need help they are told to pull up by their bootstraps. "So hypocritical."

Sorry I didn't live-blog it. Didn't seem much interest in it.
