    Thank you in advance.
    My View My Opinion, is a listener topic request commentary podcast. Everything I share is my personal opinion and is NOT to be taken as a fact. I observe public events, etc. and comment on them.

    FAQ:
    Who are you and what is your name?
    My name is My View My Opinion (MVMO) & I am a Podcaster, on CZcams. Due to safety concerns on the internet, I do not share my personal information anymore and I ask that others respect this. Also, I'm against the cult of personality & the promotion of self. I have no desire to "make a name" for myself. That's odd in this day & time I know, because most strive for this. Too many folks make themselves the center of attention instead of helping others first & allowing the information they share to be the focus of folks attention. Many crave applause, acceptance, & "fans & followers". I believe in letting the information take center stage.
    Why don't you show your face?
    My CZcams channel is host to my podcast. However, I do make on camera appearances from time to time & have many times in the past- as this is how my channel started, with me on camera talking about whatever. And for those who always ask, yes, I am a black woman, LOL!!!!
    What is this, where are the pictures or videos?
    The MVMO Podcast is a talk radio program. Generally speaking , there aren't any pictures or vids. It is made for busy professionals like the host. To have the best listening experience, place your device down and multi-task or minimize the podcast on your cell and continue doing whatever you need to do as you have the host's voice going in the background. Your hands and eyes are free!
    Where else can I find your podcast?
    My podcast is only available on CZcams. I use Spreaker, a free podcast recording app to record, but I do not have an active podcast on their site. If you hear my podcast anywhere other than youtube, feel free to let me know as it is not me but someone misusing my content.

    Al is a dummy. He's in debt. He just got his PhD.. You don't let the rookie stop your joy or your bag. Keep on moving. In all fairness. Al has had his moments of being very curt towards Armon and Claudia. He had it coming. As for Claudia, she needs to do better with cutting off people immediately once they've gone rogue. Giving people too many chances or opportunities makes you prone to being disrespected.

      From watching Arnon roast Al Reynold's on his birthday, I strongly believe Claudia Jordan knew about the roast beforehand, and encouraged Arnon, as Claudia admitted to not liking Al. Very unprofessional, and Claudia lost a great paying gig by gossiping behind the scenes with men who probably never liked her - Al, Arnon and probably Funky Dineva.

    This is so true about Claudia. I listen to all of what happened and I thought has she not learned. My other thought is why is she on the Carlos’ podcast. If there is a possibility that her show could have been saved, the interview was counterproductive. By doing the podcast she wanted to be the victim of the situation in “the streets” but neglected the people in the office who sign the checks in the “Business Street”.

I mean has family pictures on her desk from all the functions they have, excessively talks about her family and what their doing etc. She would get frustrated because she didn't understand why people didn't have pictures of family on their desks. I told her many times we come to work to work and don't have to talk about family stuff if they don't want to .She even invited the whole department to a family event and had only been on the job for about a month.Nobody went because they thought this was weird.

I believe she vented to Armon who had nothing to lose, about her issues with Al that he could not have known otherwise. And because of that misstep, she's out of Job due to a mean-spirited ROAST of revenge. Sad! Now Claudia is going on different venues airing dirty laundry.

But we have to be more careful with people who want to sabotage our work. They are always trying to get somewhere on our dime and time. That was a useful show she created, and I know she hates that she has to give it up. We need to be more careful and alert to saboteurs and how we also self-sabotage.

    We attract people based on our psychological wounds.... It's not until one person heals (does shadowwork, for example) and leaves that the people begin to repel each other. This was a trauma bond based on abandonment issues they have in common... Claudia admitted in previous interviews that she has daddy issues as a child. She seeks acceptance and validation from people that have similar traits as her dad. Al ALSO has abandonment issues, but instead of being an empath like Claudia, he seeks happiness outside of himself, making people responsible for his happiness because of the lack of love he got as a kid. He never really becomes vulnerable so he has a "get you before you get me" attitude towards life.
    It's a karmic lesson that requires inner work to get to the core. Until you change within, you will continue to attract the same person /experience externally.
    Claudia needs to be HER OWN best friend, AND REDEFINE what a friend is. Al and her were NEVER truly friends prior to working together... He was just an opportunist waiting.
    Respectfully, going from outside work to being friends at work is just an environment change.... The ENERGY remains the same. Energy cannot be created, nor destroyed but it CAN be transmute, and that would require one or both parties to heal /do shadow work.

    I hate to say it but, looking at the aftermath of it all, this show was doomed from the start. While they had great chemistry their lack of personal growth destroyed this show. Al tended to seem like the well versed one but he couldnt help but be a social climber. Funky had a following and was on the pulse of popular culture and is funny, but he is mean, he doesnt like black women and self sabatoges because of his petty personality. Claudia works hard and knows how to work her connections but she allowed herself to get played because she ignored Al and Funkys red flags. They felt like they could gang up on her. Unfortunately, she chose 2 people who were great for the camera but not for business.

      @lynetteprice360 - I get your point. Not to defend her, but Claudia came on board when James DuBose was the GM. They had a wonderful relationship, so she never felt slighted in the beginning since he listened to her feedback and incorporated her ideas. Where she got screwed is when James left to form IN THE BLACK network or streaming app. Once James departed, the changing of the old guard went into effect. She no longer had the relationship or influence she had at FOX SOUL. Yet, somehow, Al was getting all the red carpet gigs with FOX SOUL... getting in good with new management. I was surprised he got that over Claudia. She’s more of the model and has the aesthetic and personality for that type of work. Al is too moody.

When Claudia went to give more details someone in the live said don’t say that and then the live stream abruptly ended. Claudia stated this happened very early in the show when her and Al stopped being friends. Not sure if this live is still up.

    It's so refreshing to hear your analogy of this situation. I have said and made comments on many of the bloggers comment sections saying the exact same analysis that you just rendered. It was very obvious to me that AL was the demon in this situation, and he confirmed it by as soon as the show ended he called Funky on his live, and you heard a different AL Reynolds nasty and going off on what happened, and couldn't wait to poison Funky against Armon and Im sure he would have included Claudia if Funky had not stopped him. Also if you look at a lot of the episodes, AL was nasty and very condescending to Claudia, and always tried to make himself look like he was so much smarter than her, which always made me think he wanted bad to be the face of the show, and get Claudia out of that position (the person who got him the job) AL was doing divide and conquer by using Funky, and as smart as Funky is, I don't think he saw it. However AL was doing the same strategy with Armon, but Armon caught on and bought it back to Claudia and the snake was revealed. It's very obvious that AL especially has no respect for women just ask Star Jones and Dr Heavenly, because when she was a guest on a show, he practically said that there's nothing wrong with a man using a woman, as long as she is getting what she wants from the man....he is an old tri sexual male prostitute, who is a Judas seeking opportunist and will do anything to get ahead

I think he, Quinton, and Armon should have paid fair wages by all means. I know Al through Star Jones, and because of this show, nothing in between. Meanwhile, Claudia has done a host of shows on TV and radio, and I would expect her to get paid more.

    I feel Claudia is very immature and is similar to Al. They're both power hungry, and want success at any cost. Claudia is on this campaign to destroy Al. Al is a "piece of work", but so is Claudia. Claudia is going around to different bloggers to bad mouth Al, which makes her look bad and distrusting. I would never want to work with her. She doesn’t get along with nobody, and is very cunning. She likes playing the victim. She knows she told that simple boy Armon to say the terrible things he did. Because of they're actions, they caused the demise of the show. All of them had a hand in destroying the show. Claudia was not developmentally ready to lead such a show. She's the type if she doesn't like you she will do things such as this but it backfired. I see she didn't talk about getting Al suspended for defending Nene. People should be careful following up with people that has this type of devious and negative energy.

    I like Claudia and still agree with your assessment of her maturity levels. Even her crew of friends seem immature, like 30 something’s, which isn’t a good look when you’re in your 50’s. Collectively Claudia, Al, and Funky were great CZcams fodder, individually they will all have to step up their game a bit more to get that “mainstream” audience they all crave. I wish them all well as they are talented. ❤

    I really enjoyed this video. Instead of what most people have been doing which was taking one side or the other this showed the flaws in all parties involved.
    I'm definitely pro Claudia in this whole debate but I agreed that I felt that she contributed to the demise of the show and she has issues that she needed to resolve.
    But I found a lot of things that Al used to say to be very problematic and I sensed from a while ago that he's definitely a performer and very manipulative.
    The only thing I can see as to why she started speaking out about it is that early on she did find that she could not trust Al and she's been keeping quiet for a very long time.
    Over time I guess she was just tired of the slander and getting blamed for a lot of stuff so in a way they did act somewhat professionally on the show but behind the scenes it was a different story which they hid pretty well until we would pick up on those jabs every so often.
    Like I'll never forget when Al told Claudia to shut up and just the general way that he would discount her experiences and speak over her.
    You can tell there was a lack of respect there.
    But I'm glad you called out Claudia's lack of maturity as well as not learning from her mistakes because I agree, it doesn't make any sense that after all this time you're still making these ridiculous mistakes.

    This was spot on. I am slightly older than Claudia, yet younger than Al. While watching the show, I often thought they behaved very immature for their age - even Q.

Look at the men, too. These celebs in their 50s are acting way too kiddie for me and I'm younger than them all. It's exhausting seeing this so much. But now imagine them acting like that.....the generation behind has very little to learn from. It's sad.

    I use to be a faithful watcher of TGIF and currently I often watch Funky for great entertainment and belly laughs. I was heartbroken when Funky left Fox Soul. Although he originally stated it was due to a financial disagreement with Fox Soul. Later, he mentioned it was due to Claudia who had done a few interviews and mentioned Funky negatively. Mutually, their problem with each other was squashed.
    I still don’t understand the dynamics of Claudia, Al and Funky’s relationship with one another, but I do understand Claudia recently purchased a new home and I would only assume all that good money she was making on Fox Soul is needed to make those mortgage payments. I hope she survives this and learns her lessons from all this, whatever they may be….when you know better, you do better…I hope she knows now.
