In the final segment of The Clay Edwards Show on June 11, 2025, I handed out a “FAFO” (f*** around and find out) championship to Ontario McDougals (20) and Efralian Johnson (19), two Jackson, Mississippi, men arrested for pointing a gun at JPD officers. I mocked their names, counting vowels—Ontario with four, Efralian with three plus a Z and Y, which I jokingly said counted as extra—to highlight what I see as cultural stereotypes. I detailed their charges, including terroristic threats, stolen vehicles, and drug offenses, and took credit for their arrests, claiming my platform helped expose them. I called their actions part of a “culture rot,” blaming a lack of male role models and respect for authority, and sarcastically labeled them “future rocket scientists.”
I got raw about my feelings, saying I despise “ghetto Black trash” and “white trash” equally, along with any group’s equivalent. I clarified I’m not racist, praising Black conservatives like Topher, Kim Wade, and Antoine Daniels for calling out toxic behavior. I vented about Black folks from privileged backgrounds, like Jasmine Crockett, who I said fake a “ghetto” persona to seem “down,” calling it a weird guilt trip. I argued stereotypes are earned, not given, and expressed frustration with those who embrace “ratchet” or “thug” identities then cry about being profiled. I wrapped up emphasizing my respect for those who rise above this “culture rot,” regardless of race, and urged listeners to reject such behavior.
