0:00.0 | Hey, there's the moment of Brian Copman. Thanks for listening. Dominique Wilkins and I recorded |
0:07.0 | a podcast together a few days ago. It's awesome. It's coming up. You'll hear it. But when I saw |
0:13.4 | what happened to him in Atlanta on Friday, I just felt like there's no way we could do this without |
0:18.1 | giving him the chance to talk about it. And man, do you want to just walk us through what happened? |
0:24.8 | Well, you know, it was very unfortunate, Brian. You know, I've been to a lot of restaurants in my |
0:31.2 | life. Great restaurants around the world. And I've never experienced anything like that, |
0:36.4 | especially in my city. Where you have, of course. But is that being unfortunate? |

1:41.7 | this is the kicker. And this is reason why I said it felt racist to me. Yes. |
1:46.4 | There were three white guys coming in with shorts, t-shirts, and sneakers on. They say, give me a |
1:51.0 | minute. I'll see you in a second. Oh, I'm so sorry, Dominique. And I'm like, okay. And then she said, |
