- 6:03Speaker 3: No one, no boyfriend since I just dated like one
- 6:05Speaker 3: person since then.
- 6:06Speaker 4: But I keep my personal very very very very very low.
- 6:10Speaker 3: And that's why I think people make a lot of
- 6:12Speaker 3: rumors because I don't really say what it really is.
- 6:14Speaker 4: It's very on the low.
- 6:15Speaker 3: Like I just let people think, oh, she can't get

- 6:20Speaker 3: to play that character, like, yeah, yeah, I can't get
- 6:22Speaker 3: a man. I do have a crush on someone right now,
- 6:25Speaker 3: but this person doesn't know yet, so I haven't like,

- 6:57Speaker 1: look good together.
- 6:59Speaker 3: Oh, he's fine, but he's with my girl, Tianna Taylor,
- 7:02Speaker 3: and they look sexy together.

- 7:13Speaker 6: Yes, Tianna Taylor confirms her relationship with Aaron pa That's
- 7:17Speaker 6: a beautiful couple.
- 7:19Speaker 4: They probably have some good ass sex too.
- 7:22Speaker 5: She don't miss because her any minds.
- 7:26Speaker 4: You know she's anyone because I love her. I'm a fan.
- 7:30Speaker 5: How can you look bad next to you?
- 7:32Speaker 6: Got to be an ugly motherfucker look bad next to
- 7:34Speaker 6: Tianna Taylor.
- 7:36Speaker 5: That's the thing.
- 7:37Speaker 2: That's the thing.
- 7:38Speaker 1: So that's why my next man, I think I want somebody.
- 7:43Speaker 4: Who are you gonna take to the game?
- 7:44Speaker 1: Carlos, Well, I realized I can't take anybody to the
- 7:47Speaker 1: game because the rain drops saw me on TV Claudia
- 7:51Speaker 1: if it took a screenshot and putting on Twitter.
- 7:53Speaker 2: But thankfully with a girl.
- 7:55Speaker 4: Oh I saw that.
- 7:56Speaker 3: But you wanted to take a guy though, I was going.
- 7:58Speaker 2: To take this guy to a game for our first date.
- 8:03Speaker 6: That would have been a fun first day court sight
- 8:05Speaker 6: at the game. That's that's I like.
- 8:06Speaker 5: First days like this one.
- 8:10Speaker 6: So it ain't even that. He just ain't sitting nowhere else.
- 8:13Speaker 6: That's all it is. That's just what he said. If
- 8:16Speaker 6: you're gonna go to the game with him, you get
- 8:18Speaker 6: to then sit courtside as well, because this nigga ain't
- 8:21Speaker 6: gonna sit in the wheld, said the Republican.
- 8:26Speaker 5: That's what it is.
- 8:27Speaker 2: X Claudia.
- 8:28Speaker 1: I'm so happy you too, are hair because we get
- 8:31Speaker 1: to recap the real.
- 8:34Speaker 2: Of Atomic Part three re union.
- 8:37Speaker 1: It was many things that happened, and I want to
- 8:40Speaker 1: start off with Mia Thornton.
- 8:44Speaker 5: Who, yeah, who cares that she left? Who gives a fuck?
- 8:48Speaker 6: I didn't get was that was so that fell so
- 8:50Speaker 6: flat and it was so monotone for.
- 8:53Speaker 5: Me, me, oh, you call me a bad mother?
- 8:56Speaker 6: And then she's walking out with all the dramatics and
- 8:58Speaker 6: then black shades on. See it get on because as
- 9:02Speaker 6: you can see, that reunion roll right on along without
- 9:04Speaker 6: her and everything. Actually, the reunion got better once she
- 9:07Speaker 6: left because we started getting real deal receipts, pulled out,
- 9:11Speaker 6: real time receipts, actual you know, participation from the ladies
- 9:15Speaker 6: on stage. After that that made sense. They weren't doing
- 9:18Speaker 6: nothing but playing ping pong with me at the whole time. Anyway, Giselle, uh, Wendy,
- 9:25Speaker 6: who else was tagging me? Is that everybody? So when
- 9:31Speaker 6: it was time for her to go, shit, I was
- 9:33Speaker 6: happy she left. Not in a negative way. I'm just
- 9:36Speaker 6: saying I was glad to wrap all that up, you
- 9:39Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. I was happy to wrap all
- 9:40Speaker 6: that up.
- 9:41Speaker 4: I watched it today, and you know, I got admitted.
- 9:45Speaker 3: Ever since I have been on a show like that
- 9:47Speaker 3: and long, I haven't really watched a lot of reality
- 9:49Speaker 3: shows like that. But I did watch the reunion, and
- 9:52Speaker 3: I think Potomac the times I have watched is a
- 9:54Speaker 3: good I think it's the best one of all the
- 9:55Speaker 3: shows right now.
- 9:56Speaker 5: I really do for sure.
- 9:58Speaker 4: I was like, damn, they are mean, Like I would
- 10:01Speaker 4: hate me. I was like, oh my god, Like what.
- 10:04Speaker 3: Like on Atlanta they would have been fighting probably, you know,
- 10:07Speaker 3: it would have been some hair driving or something, but
- 10:09Speaker 3: they was really like going at it. And I was like,
- 10:11Speaker 3: oh my god, I do not envy that. But it
- 10:13Speaker 3: was fun to watch. But me, I think she should
- 10:15Speaker 3: have stayed. You know, I think with to be called
- 10:18Speaker 3: the bad mother, I'm sure that's painful, but you're you've
- 10:21Speaker 3: been on.
- 10:21Speaker 4: The show long enough to know what that's the leap
- 10:23Speaker 4: of it, Like, come on, you gotta be able to
- 10:25Speaker 4: expect that on going.
- 10:26Speaker 3: You had always have one in the talk, Like when
- 10:28Speaker 3: I would do a show, I'd always have Okay, this
- 10:30Speaker 3: person might company, I'm gonna have three things for you,
- 10:33Speaker 3: you know, just the top of the top of mind
- 10:35Speaker 3: in case you.
- 10:35Speaker 1: Wait, paused the cause because this is the thing that oh,
- 10:41Speaker 1: I love my podcast is because it's so like inside
- 10:43Speaker 1: Baseball but some shit.
- 10:45Speaker 2: So listen, I know how some of the reality.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Girls work, right, they definitely have information in their arsenal
- 10:56Speaker 1: that they choose to keep until you get clopped. So, Claudia,
- 11:01Speaker 1: when you were doing reality television, would you have information
- 11:04Speaker 1: in back your mind that would be like I'm not
- 11:05Speaker 1: gonna say anything, but the bumma you tried me, I'm
- 11:08Speaker 1: going to reveal it.
- 11:09Speaker 3: Absolutely ablutely, like it's it's in politics. They like to
- 11:14Speaker 3: call it opposition research, Like you know, you just have
- 11:17Speaker 3: to do a little too.
- 11:21Speaker 4: In case anyone want to get froggy. I never start
- 11:23Speaker 4: anything in my entire life.
- 11:26Speaker 3: As an areas, we don't start anything, but we are
- 11:29Speaker 3: very good at finishing it.
- 11:30Speaker 4: It's so good that people think you came on.
- 11:32Speaker 5: There with a motive.
- 11:33Speaker 4: No, you have a couple like.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Just do just get a little bit of info so
- 11:37Speaker 3: if they comf you, you have something, so you don't
- 11:39Speaker 3: just sit there like a gear in the headlights.
- 11:41Speaker 5: But this, yeah, it's.
- 11:43Speaker 4: Called the united Place, Baith, It's called the big.
- 11:46Speaker 5: Joker, big joker. Yeah yeah.
- 11:49Speaker 6: It's also called being around a whole bunch of opts, right, like,
- 11:51Speaker 6: if you with your friends, you're not thinking, okay, well
- 11:54Speaker 6: let me keep this in the chamber in case me
- 11:56Speaker 6: and this person argue.
- 11:57Speaker 5: You don't even have those sort of thoughts. But if
- 11:59Speaker 5: you're on some.
- 11:59Speaker 6: People you don't know and who they have the propensity
- 12:03Speaker 6: to start some shit, then yeah, I mean those starts
- 12:06Speaker 6: are just gonna come to me anyway, because our Craig
- 12:08Speaker 6: jokes for a living, So you know what I'm saying.
- 12:10Speaker 6: I'm already on that. You know what I'm saying. So
- 12:12Speaker 6: if you are and I then we really can just
- 12:15Speaker 6: go there. So that's airy shit, though, Claudia, you know,
- 12:18Speaker 6: it's just we're not sensitive like that.
- 12:19Speaker 5: We can go rule by the head.
- 12:21Speaker 4: You know, we have always.
- 12:24Speaker 2: So do you really okay, Claudia.
- 12:26Speaker 1: You being a former real housewife, you know how the
- 12:29Speaker 1: sausage is made. Did you think it was a bad
- 12:34Speaker 1: luck for Mia. It's one thing to leave.
- 12:37Speaker 2: The set, right to have a breakdown in your dressing room.
- 12:42Speaker 1: Mia left the actual building, changed clothes, hopped in her
- 12:47Speaker 1: black car and never came back. You being a former housewife,
- 12:52Speaker 1: was that a bad thing to do?
- 12:54Speaker 4: Not that I have a lot of experience because people
- 12:56Speaker 4: loved to remind me I was a what I was
- 12:58Speaker 4: only off of one season?
- 12:59Speaker 3: Yes you still talk about it eighteen years later, but yes,
- 13:02Speaker 3: I think you should. I understand because I remember getting
- 13:06Speaker 3: emotional on the next fifteen. There was a lot of
- 13:08Speaker 3: things that were like people come at me from all directions,
- 13:10Speaker 3: and it was very hard.
- 13:11Speaker 4: Matter of fact, I was late to the.
- 13:12Speaker 3: Reunion because I didn't want to do it, but I
- 13:15Speaker 3: did have an obligation to finish my story out and
- 13:17Speaker 3: let the fans know, like what the you know, put
- 13:19Speaker 3: a button on it. You know.
- 13:21Speaker 4: I think if she didn't want to be around those ladies,
- 13:24Speaker 4: then do your reunion from your dressing room.
- 13:26Speaker 3: Will you you at least give something from the dress
- 13:28Speaker 3: room where you can say something, because leaving like that,
- 13:31Speaker 3: you know, leaving like that, you kind of leave it
- 13:35Speaker 3: up for everyone else to write your story for you
- 13:37Speaker 3: and you really have no say and you just have
- 13:39Speaker 3: to deal with it and just go on social media. Actors,
- 13:41Speaker 3: I think she could have stayed and maybe responded from
- 13:43Speaker 3: her dressing room.
- 13:44Speaker 4: You know. I think people think in the moment, like
- 13:46Speaker 4: this is I'm gonna eat this and just walk out.
- 13:48Speaker 4: You know.
- 13:49Speaker 3: Have you ever like made a grand exit and you're
- 13:51Speaker 3: thinking like they're gonna come after.
- 13:52Speaker 4: You, like wait, wait, wait, and they don't.
- 13:53Speaker 5: You're like, oh shit, that ain't never happened to me.
- 13:58Speaker 5: God damn it. No, hell no, that's never happened to me.
- 14:01Speaker 6: But it did happen to Mia, just like you're saying,
- 14:04Speaker 6: nobody cared and it's so funny. There was some headlines
- 14:07Speaker 6: circulating when they were filming the reunion that there was
- 14:11Speaker 6: a rumor about some sort of physical altercation that didn't happen,
- 14:15Speaker 6: or at least wasn't shown on camera. If it did,
- 14:17Speaker 6: I don't believe it happened because I haven't seen anything
- 14:19Speaker 6: else other than those rumors, right, But those rumors made headlines.
- 14:24Speaker 6: The fact that Mia actually left the reunion did not
- 14:27Speaker 6: Oh so I think that shows you how anticlimactic it was.
- 14:30Speaker 6: And I don't think she had nothing else in her.
- 14:32Speaker 6: It's very easy to say, all right, you went too far,
- 14:34Speaker 6: so now I'm done with this shit when you don't
- 14:37Speaker 6: have nothing else to offer because you didn't got caught
- 14:39Speaker 6: busted and slapped in the face with the truth around
- 14:43Speaker 6: every corner you turn.
- 14:44Speaker 5: She ain't have nothing else to give. She had to
- 14:46Speaker 5: get the fuck out of there.
- 14:47Speaker 6: And I think she was uncomfortable in that dress because
- 14:49Speaker 6: them feathers that had to be tickling and itching, you know.
- 14:52Speaker 5: What I'm saying.
- 14:52Speaker 6: I know the air was on in there in that room,
- 14:54Speaker 6: and them damn feathers rubbing up against you and shit
- 14:57Speaker 6: and me always looked like she finished sneeze anyway.
- 15:01Speaker 3: Off.
- 15:02Speaker 6: She had to take that ship off, you know what
- 15:04Speaker 6: I'm saying. That's why she left. She was sicking in closed, That's.
- 15:07Speaker 5: What it was. Carls.
- 15:09Speaker 4: Do you not get your whole check if you don't
- 15:11Speaker 4: finish the reunion?
- 15:13Speaker 2: Oh that's a really good ques.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Oh this is okay As a journalist, I'm not being shitty.
- 15:18Speaker 4: I really was with the newspaper for a while in RDA.
- 15:20Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no, no, you're a real adrenaline care
- 15:24Speaker 1: not at your journaling stuff. He else, So Chlodia asking me,
- 15:28Speaker 1: do you not get your whole check when you're not
- 15:29Speaker 1: a reunion?
- 15:30Speaker 2: Okay? So, and that's a great question for the audience.
- 15:33Speaker 1: When you film a reality show, you get paid per episode, right,
- 15:38Speaker 1: So because Mia was in every episode, she did get
- 15:43Speaker 1: paid because she was in these episodes. Now granted she
- 15:47Speaker 1: was in five minutes of the episode, but the moment
- 15:51Speaker 1: your face appears in the episode, you do get paid
- 15:53Speaker 1: for your your full episodic rate. So Mia did get paid.
- 15:58Speaker 1: And I want to say this. I want to say that,
- 16:00Speaker 1: and I'm gonna keep it real. Y'all know, I love Mia.
- 16:04Speaker 1: I call her mabe lyon and I did feel like.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Me I had a lot of potential.
- 16:10Speaker 1: One thing I will say is I Carlos King obviously
- 16:14Speaker 1: was very disappointed that she left the building, right because
- 16:20Speaker 1: this is this is this is how I feel and
- 16:22Speaker 1: and and doesn't Claudia, I would love for you guys
- 16:24Speaker 1: to comment about this too.
- 16:26Speaker 2: To be the star or the queen bee or.
- 16:31Speaker 1: The force multiplier of a reality show, you gotta take
- 16:37Speaker 1: the good with the good and the bad with the bad.
- 16:39Speaker 2: It's not easy.
- 16:40Speaker 1: It's not easy, and that goes with any position in life,
- 16:44Speaker 1: whether you're a lawyer.
- 16:45Speaker 2: A doctor, what marketing, whatever your job is. When you
- 16:48Speaker 2: are at the top of your game, you're going to
- 16:51Speaker 2: get attacked. You're going to get attacked.
- 16:55Speaker 1: And this is something that because me and Claudia are
- 16:58Speaker 1: friends in real life, and me and Claudia spoke by
- 17:00Speaker 1: this my podcast when she was a guest. She is
- 17:02Speaker 1: one of the few people who've been on twice. That's
- 17:04Speaker 1: how iconic he is, so listen to it.
- 17:07Speaker 2: But Claudia the next fifteen Claudia was not going to
- 17:11Speaker 2: come to the reunion.
- 17:13Speaker 1: And one thing I love about my girls, if they
- 17:16Speaker 1: feel some kind of way, I always say to them,
- 17:18Speaker 1: if it's that bad, call me, call me. To her credit,
- 17:21Speaker 1: Claudia called me and said it's too much. I can't
- 17:24Speaker 1: take it. She and I had a conversation. Claudia came
- 17:28Speaker 1: in and delivered. Claudia delivered that reunion right. And being
- 17:35Speaker 1: a reality star is not easy. You're getting judge every
- 17:39Speaker 1: single week that parlays in two days, often because of
- 17:44Speaker 1: your appearance. And I believe in Mia and I'm being honest.
- 17:49Speaker 1: I know a star when I see one. I believe
- 17:53Speaker 1: in Mia. Now I am disappointed only because I know
- 17:57Speaker 1: that Miya has what it takes.
- 17:59Speaker 2: And I wish that Mia.
- 18:02Speaker 1: Would do what some of the other girls do and
- 18:04Speaker 1: they call me before the reunion anyway, I wish that
- 18:06Speaker 1: Mia would have would have done what Claudia did, which
- 18:10Speaker 1: is sort of like, I gotta sit through this and
- 18:15Speaker 1: it's one of those things. And I want this to
- 18:17Speaker 1: be a message to anybody who's at the top of
- 18:20Speaker 1: their game in their job.
- 18:22Speaker 2: When you are at the.
- 18:23Speaker 1: Top, people are going to try to drag you to
- 18:25Speaker 1: the bottom, and the worst thing you can do is
- 18:28Speaker 1: satisfy them by doing what Mia did. That I just
- 18:33Speaker 1: didn't like, which is left the entire building because for me,
- 18:39Speaker 1: Claudia is right in terms of that stage.
- 18:42Speaker 2: You're going to get pop pa pa, pa pal, but
- 18:44Speaker 2: you have.
- 18:45Speaker 1: To be able to withstand it. And I know Mia
- 18:49Speaker 1: has it in her. I know she does. I'm sad
- 18:52Speaker 1: she left, and what's sad about it? And this I'm
- 18:55Speaker 1: gonna be very very very honest here, very honest. What's
- 19:01Speaker 1: said about Mia leaving is two things.
- 19:03Speaker 3: For me.
- 19:04Speaker 1: One, I always tell people this, the show must go on.
- 19:08Speaker 1: And Dustin Ross is right. The show went on and
- 19:11Speaker 1: this is no shade. The show was great. It was,
- 19:14Speaker 1: it was, it was, It was actually funny, and I
- 19:17Speaker 1: enjoyed the entire reunion. So that's number one. Never think
- 19:21Speaker 1: that you're irreplaceable. Nobody on God's Green Earth should think that,
- 19:26Speaker 1: like we all are replaceable.
- 19:28Speaker 2: That's number one.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Number two, I felt bad for Mia because now I'm like,
- 19:33Speaker 1: Mia will go down in history as the first housewife
- 19:38Speaker 1: who left the reunions building building, not just left like
- 19:42Speaker 1: or then show up.
- 19:44Speaker 2: She left the building.
- 19:45Speaker 1: And it's sad because I'm like, where does she go
- 19:50Speaker 1: from here?
- 19:51Speaker 2: And that's that's my concern for her. I love Mia.
- 19:55Speaker 2: I hope that Mia is able.
- 19:56Speaker 1: To sit back and see the rammifications of that and
- 20:02Speaker 1: do right by it.
- 20:03Speaker 2: But I love me. Some mea down, but I'm being honest.
- 20:08Speaker 2: I was disappointed.
- 20:09Speaker 3: It's a lost opportunity to like because now we're left
- 20:12Speaker 3: to assume, well, where were the worst things that she
- 20:15Speaker 3: didn't want out? You know, like, what else was there?
- 20:19Speaker 3: Was she afraid something I was gonna get spilled?
- 20:21Speaker 4: It's so hard And does I know areas we talked.
- 20:24Speaker 3: About this, I know I'm built for me versus a
- 20:27Speaker 3: thousand people and it is a very scary thing and
- 20:32Speaker 3: it sucks to feel like it's you versus the world.
- 20:34Speaker 3: But I promise you, miya, when you get to the
- 20:36Speaker 3: other side of that, like very little things will phase you.
- 20:41Speaker 3: And you know, I don't care what anybody.
- 20:43Speaker 4: Else says I was.
- 20:44Speaker 3: I'm never I've never been one of the girls on
- 20:46Speaker 3: the clique. I've always been on my own. I've had
- 20:48Speaker 3: a stand on business and have an unpopular opinion about things.
- 20:52Speaker 4: But god damn it.
- 20:53Speaker 3: I believe in my intelligence and I believe in my integrity,
- 20:55Speaker 3: and if I feel I am right, then I'm not
- 20:58Speaker 3: going anywhere. Y'all don't have to go around me and MEA.
- 21:03Speaker 6: Yeah, she was full of shit, Claudia. She did not
- 21:07Speaker 6: have integrity to stand on. She was talking sitting up there,
- 21:10Speaker 6: trying to defend some lies and some really gross behavior,
- 21:14Speaker 6: some behavior that rigged gross on the television. You can't
- 21:18Speaker 6: get around that unless you step right into it. Yo,
- 21:21Speaker 6: this is the truth. Here's how I feel about this,
- 21:24Speaker 6: and then people can begin to empathize with you, understand you,
- 21:27Speaker 6: relate with you, and.
- 21:28Speaker 5: Connect with you.
- 21:29Speaker 6: We all watched that, and that's why they were just
- 21:31Speaker 6: bouncing her ping pong right across the fucking stage all
- 21:35Speaker 6: damn day because she was not bringing anything substantive or real.
- 21:39Speaker 5: And that's the difference.
- 21:40Speaker 6: You can stand on your shit because you're telling the
- 21:43Speaker 6: truth about whatever you're talking about, and the opinion that
- 21:46Speaker 6: you're defending is founded in something. Me was sitting up
- 21:50Speaker 6: there just talking shit and saying she was sorry when
- 21:53Speaker 6: she really wasn't sorry. So she was playing a game
- 21:56Speaker 6: that there was no end game for she was. It
- 21:59Speaker 6: was just a lose situation. That's why I was like, gone,
- 22:02Speaker 6: you know.
- 22:02Speaker 5: And when she didn't know, I don't know that about her.
- 22:04Speaker 3: I know I picked in the show before and I
- 22:06Speaker 3: was like, Wow, that girl has a lot going on,
- 22:08Speaker 3: and like Carlo says, the potential to really be the
- 22:10Speaker 3: start because she had she had so much drama that
- 22:13Speaker 3: was like, okay, she gonna be.
- 22:14Speaker 1: She had the first Listen, I told you all this
- 22:17Speaker 1: tea already.
- 22:18Speaker 2: The first chair is important. To have the first chair.
- 22:24Speaker 5: It is a reward two years in a row.
- 22:28Speaker 2: Wow, let me tell you something, baby.
- 22:31Speaker 1: To have the first chair two years in a row
- 22:34Speaker 1: is a reward of like you, that girl, We're gonna
- 22:38Speaker 1: we have to we have.
- 22:39Speaker 2: To give it up and and and.
- 22:42Speaker 1: That's why I'm disappointed, because I know it's tough, and
- 22:46Speaker 1: it's very tough, but when you want to be the
- 22:49Speaker 1: top dog in any situation, and that's why it's a
- 22:53Speaker 1: life rule, you have to know when you're at the top,
- 22:56Speaker 1: you're going to get attacked. And it's one thing that
- 22:58Speaker 1: Denzel Washington told Will Smith the night of the Oscar slap.
- 23:02Speaker 1: He said, at your highest, be careful. That's when the
- 23:05Speaker 1: double comps and want to you when you down.
- 23:08Speaker 3: And out And in second place, no one attacks losers.
- 23:11Speaker 3: No one attacks you when you last. No one attacks
- 23:13Speaker 3: the bumb no one attacks when.
- 23:15Speaker 4: You itce a run track. First place was a blue ribbon,
- 23:17Speaker 4: second place was a red ribbon.
- 23:19Speaker 3: And third place was white, and after that was all
- 23:22Speaker 3: these abstract pastels and purple and lavender and baby blue,
- 23:25Speaker 3: and one about the person that gets the orange ribbon.
- 23:29Speaker 3: So if they're coming for you, they're coming for you
- 23:31Speaker 3: for a reason.
- 23:32Speaker 4: So just know that.
- 23:33Speaker 6: Mia is disappointing for me because she has everything it
- 23:37Speaker 6: takes to be a success on the show. That's why
- 23:40Speaker 6: they keep putting her in that first seat chair. But
- 23:42Speaker 6: she's fucking it up with the games, and that's what
- 23:46Speaker 6: the problem is for the fans, at least for this fan.
- 23:49Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, just keep it real.
- 23:51Speaker 6: We would love to see her and Gordon figure shit
- 23:54Speaker 6: out for real, for real, whether that means them staying
- 23:56Speaker 6: together or get a divorce. But the game playing and
- 23:59Speaker 6: the line and shit is what makes it repulsive.
- 24:03Speaker 5: I think that's.
- 24:04Speaker 3: That's a frustrating thing about reality TV when half of
- 24:07Speaker 3: y'all are really putting it on the table and being honest,
- 24:11Speaker 3: and then people over here, yes, he blew up the spot.
- 24:13Speaker 3: People over here being fake, lying, being fake, religious, fake, rich,
- 24:17Speaker 3: fake hat and everything, and you're being honest, and then
- 24:21Speaker 3: you end up getting criticized or coming being kind of
- 24:25Speaker 3: misunderstood or dragged for your realness. Because I'm telling y'all,
- 24:28Speaker 3: reality TV audiences, y'all have been so trained to celebrate
- 24:32Speaker 3: the fake because there's so much of it that is
- 24:34Speaker 3: to frustrated me, especially around some of these Southern gals
- 24:38Speaker 3: that really be trying to use religion that is to
- 24:39Speaker 3: really pissed me off, because it'd be o fake, and
- 24:42Speaker 3: that would be a way to kind of mask the
- 24:44Speaker 3: deviant behavior sometimes, you know, and there'd be a lot
- 24:47Speaker 3: of lying. I'm like, just you, I promise you, you'd
- 24:50Speaker 3: be more interesting if you just cap a.
- 24:52Speaker 4: Buck about what you really are like.
- 24:54Speaker 3: Because how can you maintain that false image? And that's
- 24:56Speaker 3: not just people in reality, that's people in general. Like
- 24:59Speaker 3: people like to quote God, quote the Bible and make
- 25:02Speaker 3: that's gonna make us forget about all your affairs or
- 25:04Speaker 3: all your frinds, your debauchery, you know.
- 25:07Speaker 6: That's or do whatever they want, whatever kind of file
- 25:10Speaker 6: trifling shit they want to do, for years and years
- 25:13Speaker 6: and years and then just decide, Oh, I'm giving my
- 25:15Speaker 6: life over to the Lord and I'm fin to judge
- 25:17Speaker 6: all y'all, and y'all gotta don't worry about what I did.
- 25:20Speaker 6: Look where I'm at now. No, it don't work like that.
- 25:22Speaker 6: Integrity is something that you are that's proven through time
- 25:25Speaker 6: and circumstances and shit like.
- 25:27Speaker 5: So, I don't know.
- 25:28Speaker 6: That was kind of people irritate me too, Yeah, that
- 25:31Speaker 6: was my problem with that. That's why I'm not excited
- 25:32Speaker 6: about Faeder coming back to Atlanta. Not excited at all.
- 25:36Speaker 6: And unless somebody is going to call her to the
- 25:38Speaker 6: carpet for that candy shit from season nine, I don't
- 25:41Speaker 6: want to hear anything she has to say.
- 25:42Speaker 3: I'm going to vack you up on that because every
- 25:44Speaker 3: time I've been afraid to say stuff because I feel
- 25:46Speaker 3: like when I do, for some reason, just because I
- 25:48Speaker 3: was on the show for one season, I'm not allowed
- 25:50Speaker 3: to say as much as a fan can say.
- 25:52Speaker 4: Fuck that and fuck y'all. I'm gonna speak on it.
- 25:55Speaker 3: I feel you on that because I think she's one
- 25:57Speaker 3: of the main people that I think was very phony,
- 25:58Speaker 3: very fake, but she.
- 26:00Speaker 4: It is good television because of that.
- 26:01Speaker 3: She's when you are willing to say or do anything
- 26:04Speaker 3: on reality TV. It's it does make you a star
- 26:08Speaker 3: in reality But I just feel like a lot of
- 26:10Speaker 3: times people get positively reading negatively, we positively reinforced and
- 26:15Speaker 3: negative behavior with contracts, with money, with bookings, with adoration
- 26:20Speaker 3: because it entertains us. But then people are not really
- 26:23Speaker 3: held accountable for really vicious things that they do. And
- 26:26Speaker 3: I don't think that's right, you know, And I think
- 26:28Speaker 3: people keep getting rewarded for doing function and what's the
- 26:31Speaker 3: motivational stot.
- 26:32Speaker 6: And see you've spent time with Phaedra specifically, since we're
- 26:35Speaker 6: talking about her, I'm speaking just from a viewer of
- 26:39Speaker 6: the show. That was an open ended situation that we
- 26:42Speaker 6: never got closure on, and we then went on to
- 26:45Speaker 6: see her have a real time, real life fall out
- 26:48Speaker 6: with Candy.
- 26:49Speaker 5: We went on to.
- 26:49Speaker 6: See Phaedra after a few years, well about five six
- 26:53Speaker 6: years she was away, and then we saw her. She
- 26:55Speaker 6: came on to Traders, and then she got danced with
- 26:57Speaker 6: the stars, and then she got married to medicine or
- 27:00Speaker 6: whatever order that went in, and now she's back on
- 27:03Speaker 6: Housewives of Atlanta, right, But we've never gotten closer to
- 27:07Speaker 6: that situation that she exited the show from, and I
- 27:12Speaker 6: am it's hard for me to connect with her just
- 27:14Speaker 6: stepping back in and we getting to the bottom of
- 27:16Speaker 6: her saying that you know what I'm saying and telling
- 27:19Speaker 6: those lies. That's something that should be addressed on that
- 27:22Speaker 6: show so that the story can continue appropriately.
- 27:26Speaker 5: And I really had somebody I agree.
- 27:27Speaker 3: With that like what like nothing, Okay, let me take
- 27:30Speaker 3: a step back, live before I be accused of being
- 27:32Speaker 3: a hater, because I'm not. Okay, redemption people deserve to
- 27:36Speaker 3: have second chances, whatever I guess, but but I think,
- 27:39Speaker 3: like to your point, I think it would be great
- 27:42Speaker 3: and it would be defend that explain it put a
- 27:48Speaker 3: button on that as well, and then we move forward.
- 27:50Speaker 3: But to just ignore something main reason for your exit
- 27:53Speaker 3: and to not address it and to let you back on,
- 27:56Speaker 3: I think that's where it kind of leaves a bad
- 27:58Speaker 3: taste in one's mouth. Child.
- 28:01Speaker 1: We are just getting started. This is reality with the
- 28:14Speaker 1: King and I'm Carlos King. Let's get back into the show. Well,
- 28:21Speaker 1: let me ask you guys this because you know, one
- 28:24Speaker 1: thing that happened on Potomac in this episode two was
- 28:29Speaker 1: this sort of like shocking revelation right that even me
- 28:34Speaker 1: watching it, I was shocked that I was talking for
- 28:37Speaker 1: a couple of reasons. But I want to get you
- 28:39Speaker 1: guys thoughts on it too, because to me, it's sort
- 28:43Speaker 1: of like what's the integrity of reality television? Right like
- 28:46Speaker 1: at this point, sort of like what is going to
- 28:50Speaker 1: happen if you're allowed to get away with this? So
- 28:52Speaker 1: one thing that occurred on Potomac was this revelation.
- 28:57Speaker 2: So Claudia, I know you're catching up on this.
- 28:59Speaker 1: So stay sees a new housewife who gives you Kenya
- 29:03Speaker 1: Moore tease just like tall beautiful. She's from Detroit as well,
- 29:09Speaker 1: not a shade assassin because Kenya can read the motherfucker
- 29:12Speaker 1: bone book right, very smart and Kenya is actually smart right,
- 29:19Speaker 1: very smart. Thank you, so, long story short, Stacey's a
- 29:22Speaker 1: new housewife. Stacey had this best friend on the show
- 29:26Speaker 1: that a lot of people question whether not the relationship
- 29:30Speaker 1: was real. They questioned the validity of this relationship and
- 29:34Speaker 1: it was something Claudia that was constant, do you know
- 29:38Speaker 1: what I mean in terms of like me and Dusk
- 29:41Speaker 1: would talk about like there's something off about it.
- 29:43Speaker 2: Fast forward to the reunion.
- 29:45Speaker 1: This is episode twenty Claudia twenty episodes in of people
- 29:48Speaker 1: having these speculations. It's Denver build On Part three, TJ,
- 29:54Speaker 1: who was facetimed by the husband's on the show, Claudia
- 30:00Speaker 1: asking where you at, bro Well, I am there.
- 30:03Speaker 2: She didn't. Stacey didn't want me there.
- 30:05Speaker 1: She owes me my name, and then it was sort
- 30:08Speaker 1: of like and listen, I'm gonna say this and I.
- 30:11Speaker 2: Want you guys to cook.
- 30:14Speaker 1: When it was presented to Stacey that TJ alleged that
- 30:22Speaker 1: she paid him, I'm just being very honest. It was
- 30:29Speaker 1: hard for me to believe Stacy for one reason alone.
- 30:33Speaker 2: And I'm gonna keep it real.
- 30:35Speaker 1: If you lie on me, If I'm a reality star,
- 30:38Speaker 1: Claudia and Dustin. I've given my whole life to this show.
- 30:42Speaker 1: I'm used to cameras being around me. I'm used to
- 30:44Speaker 1: a microphone on my back, and I'm used to y'all
- 30:47Speaker 1: telling my real reality. Right with this person, not my cousin,
- 30:52Speaker 1: y'all don't know, not my not this friend I went
- 30:55Speaker 1: to middle school with. We're talking about somebody I brought
- 30:58Speaker 1: on the show. If this person I brought on the
- 31:02Speaker 1: show and I'm a reality star lied on me, I
- 31:05Speaker 1: am picking up my phone in real time calling them.
- 31:11Speaker 2: When these ladies gave her the opportunity to.
- 31:13Speaker 1: Do that, I was like, Stacy, I love you, down,
- 31:18Speaker 1: says me and be lying Stacey be lying I'm.
- 31:23Speaker 6: Sorry, Yeah, I agree. But now I also want to
- 31:28Speaker 6: make note of this. All season long, TJ was adamant
- 31:33Speaker 6: about abstaining from sex with Stacy and him wanting to
- 31:38Speaker 6: not be intimate with her, and he related that to
- 31:42Speaker 6: a correlated that to his faith.
- 31:43Speaker 5: It was a faith based decision for him.
- 31:45Speaker 6: Right, he was saying, and his love of guy right, right,
- 31:49Speaker 6: but no follow me, follow me right. But when Eddie
- 31:53Speaker 6: and them called him backstage, TJ got on that phone
- 31:57Speaker 6: talking like me that fake ass, showing him fake ass
- 32:00Speaker 6: for the fucking p and Cussin talking about exposing the
- 32:05Speaker 6: fact that, according to him, his presence there was paid
- 32:09Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying by Stacy, which shows like,
- 32:12Speaker 6: you know, just just deceit and things that are not
- 32:15Speaker 6: are typically associated with the Christian faith. So I don't
- 32:18Speaker 6: know what to believe, because I definitely felt like Stacey
- 32:21Speaker 6: was lying on that couch, and she continued to lie
- 32:24Speaker 6: allegedly on Watch What Happens Live because she doubled down
- 32:27Speaker 6: on it. However, TJ went live today. I saw this,
- 32:31Speaker 6: you know, when I was prepping for the show. He
- 32:33Speaker 6: went live today saying he had just landed somewhere and
- 32:35Speaker 6: he was playing coy and saying that maybe it's time
- 32:37Speaker 6: for me to drop some breaking news.
- 32:39Speaker 5: So he's eating up the.
- 32:39Speaker 6: Spotlight like we all knew he would, and playing directly
- 32:43Speaker 6: into the mess of all of this. I think they
- 32:45Speaker 6: lying together, That's what I think. I think they both lying.
- 32:48Speaker 6: I think that TJ is exaggerating something because he was
- 32:52Speaker 6: a totally different nigga on that phone than he was
- 32:56Speaker 6: during the season, totally different person, and I think that
- 33:00Speaker 6: Stacey was less than honest I don't know about what,
- 33:02Speaker 6: but I think she was less than honest when the
- 33:04Speaker 6: shit hit the fan at that reunion because she wasn't prepared.
- 33:07Speaker 6: And Stacey is a person that stepped on that reunion
- 33:09Speaker 6: stage prepared for everything that was going to come her way.
- 33:13Speaker 6: She was measured, she was prepared. That hit her from
- 33:17Speaker 6: the side. She was blindsided by that. So I think
- 33:20Speaker 6: they both.
- 33:20Speaker 1: Waitlau before you go, because I'm actually gagin and I wanted.
- 33:25Speaker 2: Him a Claudia.
- 33:26Speaker 1: So Dustin, you think, I just want to be clear.
- 33:30Speaker 1: You think TJ is lying about being paid to be
- 33:35Speaker 1: on the show by Stacy, that's what you think.
- 33:39Speaker 6: Yeah, I think he's exaggerated something in some way. If
- 33:42Speaker 6: there was some money exchanged, I don't think that they
- 33:45Speaker 6: sat down and had an agreement where she said you
- 33:47Speaker 6: be in the show and I'll pay you to be here.
- 33:49Speaker 6: I think he's exaggerating something that took place that he
- 33:52Speaker 6: can frame as such because he wants more attention.
- 33:55Speaker 5: The season's over and Stacey's not fucking with him.
- 33:59Speaker 6: She's not giving him that access that he once had,
- 34:01Speaker 6: So now he's going to get it by exposing things
- 34:04Speaker 6: or dropping information or becoming a person who has some
- 34:08Speaker 6: sort of some commodity, something of value to the media.
- 34:12Speaker 5: That's what he's trying to do. Now. I don't give
- 34:14Speaker 5: a damn about their relationship.
- 34:15Speaker 6: They could have been button naked next to me right
- 34:17Speaker 6: now and I'd be looking at y'all. However, people are
- 34:21Speaker 6: interested in whether or not it was a real situation,
- 34:23Speaker 6: and so they want to know he's playing the game
- 34:26Speaker 6: and feeding just enough to keep people interested.
- 34:29Speaker 5: In what he has to say.
- 34:31Speaker 6: I don't know where he thinks he's going to go
- 34:32Speaker 6: with that, but that's what he's doing. And Stacey is
- 34:35Speaker 6: not telling the truth about something. I don't know what,
- 34:38Speaker 6: but I just like you, Carlos, I sat there on
- 34:41Speaker 6: that couch and it was a noticeable difference between the
- 34:44Speaker 6: way she was presenting when Wendy dropped that bomb and
- 34:48Speaker 6: pre prior to that, it was totally different.
- 34:50Speaker 5: So I think there was something off in there.
- 34:52Speaker 2: Claudia Jordan, what.
- 34:54Speaker 3: Did I just say about the fake religious people. I
- 34:56Speaker 3: know people think I'm talking about a certain one or
- 34:58Speaker 3: two people on Housewives.
- 34:59Speaker 4: I'm talking about the entire industry.
- 35:01Speaker 3: I don't trust people that lead with that and then
- 35:05Speaker 3: they do reality television. I feel like there's a lot
- 35:07Speaker 3: of people that use that to trick they manipulate us.
- 35:10Speaker 3: I think someone put religious or faith manipulation, using that
- 35:15Speaker 3: to get people to think they're a certain way, but
- 35:16Speaker 3: they're really not. Oh I'm abstaining from sex and not
- 35:19Speaker 3: doing this. What niggain't fucking nowadays? You miss me with
- 35:23Speaker 3: the bullshit that has access And also what person has
- 35:29Speaker 3: to be paid to go on one of the hottest
- 35:31Speaker 3: reality shows that's out there when people are on Instagram, Twitter, Twitch.
- 35:35Speaker 4: TikTok, Facebook giving all their tea away for free, Miss
- 35:41Speaker 4: me with that, bs.
- 35:42Speaker 3: I do not believe that when I hear people say, oh,
- 35:44Speaker 3: they paid them to be on the show with them,
- 35:45Speaker 3: and you're a beautiful girl.
- 35:47Speaker 4: Do you know how easy it is to get a nigga?
- 35:49Speaker 6: And my thing is, even if she did so what,
- 35:51Speaker 6: even if she did pay him so what, that would
- 35:54Speaker 6: make me look at her any differently? In fact, that
- 35:56Speaker 6: would make me be like, oh, she's smart because it's
- 35:58Speaker 6: not personal. She found somebody who could just get the
- 36:01Speaker 6: job done. That wouldn't even make me look at her
- 36:03Speaker 6: in a weird way. So I wish she would just
- 36:05Speaker 6: say that if that's true, Yeah, I found somebody.
- 36:09Speaker 3: I do agree that there's something that she definitely was
- 36:11Speaker 3: caught off guard.
- 36:12Speaker 4: She wasn't ready for that like that they did not
- 36:14Speaker 4: talk about that.
- 36:14Speaker 3: But I also have a hard time believing people once
- 36:18Speaker 3: you break up, because there's always the person you get
- 36:22Speaker 3: with is not the person you break up with.
- 36:25Speaker 4: How many of us have all been in love with.
- 36:27Speaker 3: Someone that we would never in a million years think
- 36:29Speaker 3: that they would say this, that, and the thought about us.
- 36:31Speaker 3: But then they break you break up and they are
- 36:32Speaker 3: a different human being. They line on you, they paying blogs,
- 36:36Speaker 3: the post stories about you and make you look bad.
- 36:39Speaker 3: Now you're an asshole, Now you're bad in bed, Now
- 36:42Speaker 3: you're broke.
- 36:42Speaker 4: But they were singing your praises before.
- 36:45Speaker 3: So bitterness will change your opinion about someone. And so
- 36:51Speaker 3: I don't believe. I want to know when y'all are
- 36:53Speaker 3: in it, how y'all think about each other. But at
- 36:55Speaker 3: the end we all mad at each other. I'm sorry,
- 36:58Speaker 3: It's very easy to lie now. I'm not saying he's innocent.
- 37:00Speaker 4: I don't really know.
- 37:01Speaker 3: She definitely was caught up guard. There was something going on,
- 37:04Speaker 3: But like, I don't know, were gonna believe people, And
- 37:06Speaker 3: like Stacey made a good point, the entire season. Y'all
- 37:09Speaker 3: want rocking with this dude. Y'all weren't feeling him. But
- 37:12Speaker 3: now that that he's saying, bad's up about me, now
- 37:14Speaker 3: you want to.
- 37:15Speaker 5: See I got it?
- 37:16Speaker 6: Okay, So listen, don't be presenting me with no alternative
- 37:19Speaker 6: scenario to consider. Let me come to that conclusion on
- 37:21Speaker 6: my own. I agree with that. You sound like trying
- 37:24Speaker 6: to convince me. You know what I'm saying.
- 37:26Speaker 1: Yes, I'll say this, and again, Stacey's a great housewife.
- 37:31Speaker 2: She's great. I'm gonna tell you what doesn't help her.
- 37:34Speaker 1: I'm being real. This guy is an actor. Claudia Jordan,
- 37:41Speaker 1: he was. He was on Sister Sister to Tia Tamiroschelle.
- 37:46Speaker 2: Because Claudia, you know this. Claudia knows this for real, Parrell.
- 37:49Speaker 1: When you are on Housewives, or when you bring a
- 37:52Speaker 1: dude on Housewives, the Housewives fans are going to find
- 37:56Speaker 1: everything about this person, right who.
- 37:59Speaker 5: Remember that guy side of the show.
- 38:00Speaker 4: And I said, please, Carlos, do not because he's a fraud.
- 38:03Speaker 2: Remember that I do. We'll talk after. So the thing
- 38:07Speaker 2: is this, what doesn't help this? I'm just being real.
- 38:11Speaker 2: He's an actor.
- 38:13Speaker 1: He's an actor, So I'm gonna tell you three things
- 38:16Speaker 1: that makes TJ believable to the audience and to me
- 38:22Speaker 1: possibly right.
- 38:23Speaker 2: Number one, he's an actor. He's an actor.
- 38:26Speaker 1: And one thing we know about actors because you two
- 38:28Speaker 1: are actors, you too are and SAG.
- 38:31Speaker 2: And one thing you both know is people have to
- 38:34Speaker 2: pay for your time. People have to pay your time.
- 38:37Speaker 1: And if if it's my second point, if I'm out
- 38:42Speaker 1: on camera kissing you, touching you, yeah, and we're talking
- 38:49Speaker 1: about your divorce the whole time I'm there, something's off
- 38:54Speaker 1: about that. Number two and number three, I'm gonna say this,
- 38:59Speaker 1: What was the goal defining to me is if you
- 39:05Speaker 1: believed in your heart of hearts that this person was
- 39:10Speaker 1: somebody who you call your best friend. Like most paid gigs,
- 39:17Speaker 1: the contract is up, so I believe this is my opinion.
- 39:21Speaker 1: I believe. I believe allegedly that TJ was not in
- 39:26Speaker 1: his contract allegedly paid for reunion services.
- 39:30Speaker 2: I believe my opinion.
- 39:32Speaker 1: I believe TJ fulfilled his duties for the season. And
- 39:36Speaker 1: I believe based on based on Claudia and Dustin the
- 39:40Speaker 1: amount of attention he received, he said yesterday's price and
- 39:45Speaker 1: today's price, And I believe that TJ allegedly tried to
- 39:50Speaker 1: negotiate a different rate, and Stacey allegedly would have said no,
- 39:55Speaker 1: because my thing is this, Claudia, you were a housewife
- 40:00Speaker 1: and you're a reality star. How convenient is it people
- 40:05Speaker 1: break up when this season is over with and by
- 40:08Speaker 1: the time the reunion happens, we're no longer together.
- 40:14Speaker 4: Damn they really be paying people. Though maybe maybe they
- 40:18Speaker 4: She asked them, come on, maybe not pay them.
- 40:20Speaker 2: Reality TV ain't what it used to be. Go ahead
- 40:23Speaker 2: and asked him.
- 40:23Speaker 4: To, uh, you know, fake this with me. Maybe there
- 40:26Speaker 4: was no money transact. I don't know. I don't now
- 40:28Speaker 4: confuse both everybody made it.
- 40:31Speaker 6: See Okay, that's where that that's where the pivot is
- 40:33Speaker 6: for me. If they were, if they had a relationship,
- 40:36Speaker 6: if they knew each other, I'll just say that right.
- 40:39Speaker 6: If she knows TJ right, and she's like, hey, I'm
- 40:42Speaker 6: about to film this show and I would love for
- 40:45Speaker 6: you to film with me, you know, you know, it's
- 40:46Speaker 6: just film together, kicking it or whatever and figuring out
- 40:49Speaker 6: our relationship, and of course, you know, I'll pay you
- 40:52Speaker 6: for your time type shit. I don't see anything wrong
- 40:56Speaker 6: with that personally, And that being that coming out is
- 40:59Speaker 6: not an XBO say to me her saying, hey, I
- 41:02Speaker 6: don't know you stranger unless fake a relationship.
- 41:06Speaker 5: Here's a fee to pretend to be my boyfriend. That's
- 41:09Speaker 5: I'm gonna.
- 41:10Speaker 2: Stop you there.
- 41:10Speaker 1: And and I'm only saying this because they said it,
- 41:14Speaker 1: because Claudia knows this. I have never once told Claudia's business.
- 41:18Speaker 1: I don't tell my girl's business. I'm gonna say this
- 41:20Speaker 1: only because they said it.
- 41:24Speaker 2: Husband not all.
- 41:26Speaker 1: Some husbands over housewives get ten percent of their wife's check.
- 41:32Speaker 5: I don't see anything.
- 41:33Speaker 6: I'm gonna tell you why don't I don't know. I'm
- 41:35Speaker 6: gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell you what's different. I'm
- 41:37Speaker 6: gonna tell you why.
- 41:38Speaker 1: Peter and Cynthia had this conversation publicly that Cynthia Peter.
- 41:43Speaker 2: Is her husband.
- 41:47Speaker 1: Her husband, Okay, they had a conversation where when you're filming, right, Claudia,
- 41:55Speaker 1: especially housewives, because that's that's like, you know, that's that's rue.
- 42:00Speaker 2: You're dusting this. This is the reality.
- 42:04Speaker 1: Your time is being taken away. You got away in
- 42:07Speaker 1: the parking lot before you get called in. You gotta
- 42:10Speaker 1: get mind so dustin. It does feel like a job.
- 42:16Speaker 1: It really does. And that's the reason why Peter and
- 42:19Speaker 1: Cynthia had a conversation. And Cynthia have to pay Peter,
- 42:23Speaker 1: her husband to film. And what a lot of people
- 42:26Speaker 1: don't know is a lot of the husbands get paid
- 42:31Speaker 1: because they don't get paid for them the housewife because
- 42:33Speaker 1: their time is being spent, their time is being taken away.
- 42:37Speaker 1: And I'm gonna say this, and I love Stacy. I
- 42:39Speaker 1: love Stacy down and Stacey is a great housewife. Without Tea,
- 42:43Speaker 1: without TJ, what would Stacy talk about?
- 42:50Speaker 5: I don't know, Carlos.
- 42:51Speaker 6: I feel like Stacy brought a lot of new energy
- 42:53Speaker 6: to that cast this season, and my favorite moments from
- 42:56Speaker 6: her had nothing to do with her relationship with TJ.
- 43:00Speaker 5: Favorite moments from her were her.
- 43:01Speaker 6: Interacting with the ladies at that event, at the dog
- 43:05Speaker 6: Ship event at the end of the season, her laughing
- 43:08Speaker 6: at Ashley singing at the GNA event, her confessional scenes,
- 43:13Speaker 6: her at the table scene when they went on that
- 43:16Speaker 6: cash trip and she was and they were cocking me
- 43:19Speaker 6: and Justine.
- 43:20Speaker 5: That's don't give her and that man because I never was.
- 43:25Speaker 2: That friend of tease. That's very much friend of Now I.
- 43:29Speaker 5: Agree with you, Okay, we can agree that started.
- 43:33Speaker 1: Off as a friend of and when she and when
- 43:36Speaker 1: she became a housewife. After filming Claudia, we have to
- 43:40Speaker 1: be like, well, she's a housewife, so we got any
- 43:42Speaker 1: personal story. And that's why I always believe Claudia deserved
- 43:46Speaker 1: a second chance because of those reasons. Everything was saying
- 43:50Speaker 1: is true. Everything Stacey did was amazing. But that's why
- 43:54Speaker 1: I said this. I'll say it again. I'll say it again.
- 43:56Speaker 2: I'll say it again. I say again. That's why when.
- 43:58Speaker 1: Claudia needed me and he had that moment in Puerto Rico,
- 44:02Speaker 1: Niini said to me and another producer, y'all chose the
- 44:05Speaker 1: wrong be Claudia deserves the peach.
- 44:08Speaker 2: That's what I'm gonna say, because to.
- 44:11Speaker 1: Have that level of confidence and and and and stamina,
- 44:17Speaker 1: the fact that they are all, the fact that the
- 44:20Speaker 1: queen of reality television, the queen who I considered to
- 44:25Speaker 1: be the greatest reality start of all time, the fact
- 44:28Speaker 1: that she told us y'all made a mistake.
- 44:31Speaker 2: Claudia needs the peach. Let's be clear.
- 44:35Speaker 3: So what I'm saying, I appreciate her saying that because
- 44:38Speaker 3: I remember you all tell me.
- 44:39Speaker 4: At the time, I was.
- 44:40Speaker 3: Like, really, people thought we were really hating each other time,
- 44:42Speaker 3: and really it wasn't. She was around me after that
- 44:45Speaker 3: read in Puerto Rico, she got a stand next to Claudia.
- 44:47Speaker 1: She well again again, I would like to say everything,
- 44:50Speaker 1: but it's true, Nini. That's why it's two things. Dustin,
- 44:56Speaker 1: You're right about Stacey. Everything's saying is right, But there
- 44:59Speaker 1: is this thing where when you are a housewife, it's like, okay,
- 45:02Speaker 1: besides the group scenes, girl, what are we getting from
- 45:04Speaker 1: you at the crib? And that's why to me, I'm
- 45:07Speaker 1: just being honest here. It is believable. I'm not saying
- 45:10Speaker 1: Stacy's lying. I'm not saying teacher's line.
- 45:11Speaker 2: I don't know. All I'm saying is believable.
- 45:14Speaker 1: And the reason why I wanted to bring Claudia into
- 45:18Speaker 1: this too is because when you start off as a
- 45:21Speaker 1: friend of but you are like everything you said to Dustin,
- 45:26Speaker 1: you're then the group scene. You give a comment, you
- 45:28Speaker 1: give a facial expression, you throw a little shade. But
- 45:31Speaker 1: when you are a mother, housewife, or baby, who's your mama.
- 45:38Speaker 2: Where's your brother, who's your man? Where's your child? So
- 45:41Speaker 2: that's why I.
- 45:43Speaker 1: Can see Stacy feeling the need and I'm going in
- 45:47Speaker 1: with this because her real husband, who she is married to,
- 45:51Speaker 1: doesn't want her or her child on the show.
- 45:54Speaker 5: Wait what, that's what we saw kids?
- 45:57Speaker 1: Yeah, Claudia, Stacy's married, she's going divorce though, and she
- 46:01Speaker 1: has a beautiful daughter.
- 46:02Speaker 2: None of them on the show.
- 46:04Speaker 1: So when you that's why it's believable, because without all
- 46:09Speaker 1: of those extra factors, she will be the Marlon Hampton
- 46:14Speaker 1: of Potonemac A friend before got a pitch.
- 46:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of people, well a few
- 46:21Speaker 3: people in the comments are talking about Stacy's dude and
- 46:24Speaker 3: that they're questioning his sexuality.
- 46:26Speaker 4: Has that ever been a thing?
- 46:27Speaker 1: Well, the thing is now from me and Dustin because
- 46:31Speaker 1: as listen, I'll say this listen as gay black man,
- 46:35Speaker 1: it's dangerous to sort of out somebody is TJ's. It's
- 46:41Speaker 1: TJ's decision to say whether or not he is.
- 46:45Speaker 2: That's not for us to call out Claudia. Obviously.
- 46:47Speaker 1: People are saying that that's why Eddie in this reunion
- 46:51Speaker 1: used to work flamboyant.
- 46:55Speaker 4: A little bit at him.
- 46:56Speaker 5: I don't think.
- 46:56Speaker 1: I don't think Adi was throwing share. I think Eddie
- 46:58Speaker 1: was being careful in terms of life because the thing
- 47:01Speaker 1: is that it's dangerous. It's dangerous. It's nothing more dangerous
- 47:04Speaker 1: to out somebody than I am ready for it. And
- 47:06Speaker 1: it's also dangerous to label anybody something they or not.
- 47:10Speaker 1: So I just want to say that. So when it
- 47:11Speaker 1: comes to that, that has been a topic conversation. But
- 47:14Speaker 1: that's TJ's story to tell.
- 47:17Speaker 2: From my listen.
- 47:18Speaker 1: From my understanding, he has yet to talk about it,
- 47:21Speaker 1: so I don't know. But what I'm saying is when
- 47:26Speaker 1: it comes to whether or not he is or isn't,
- 47:29Speaker 1: that to me is a mute point.
- 47:30Speaker 2: The biggest point is whether or.
- 47:33Speaker 1: Not this man was paid to be on the show,
- 47:36Speaker 1: because Stacy did not have any personal story outside of TJ.
- 47:41Speaker 4: Do you think men?
- 47:42Speaker 3: Do you think the boyfriends and husbands on reality TV
- 47:45Speaker 3: should get paid?
- 47:46Speaker 4: You think that will help or hurt?
- 47:48Speaker 2: Well, that's a good question.
- 47:50Speaker 1: The reason why I create a love and marriage is
- 47:53Speaker 1: because I listen.
- 47:55Speaker 2: I always felt that when it came to.
- 48:00Speaker 1: Reality TV, in order for you to understand the woman,
- 48:04Speaker 1: you also have to get to know her husband or
- 48:06Speaker 1: her boyfriend, right, And I feel like, and this is
- 48:11Speaker 1: my experience, the men they work season six, which will
- 48:16Speaker 1: go down to history in the Guinness Book of World
- 48:18Speaker 1: Records as the highest rated season of any Bravo show
- 48:22Speaker 1: that was the main season.
- 48:23Speaker 2: Claudia was a season before You got.
- 48:25Speaker 1: On where the men were integral into the storyline. And
- 48:30Speaker 1: that's the reason why that show that season was. That
- 48:32Speaker 1: season is tense a plus across the board. You had apollow,
- 48:36Speaker 1: Greg Leek's Rest in Peace. Todd, you had I'm missing
- 48:42Speaker 1: other hell, Brandon, you had you, you, you, you had.
- 48:48Speaker 2: You had the Christopher Christopher Williams, Oh.
- 48:51Speaker 5: My god, that was you.
- 48:54Speaker 2: You you, you had the p o B of men.
- 48:58Speaker 1: Because we don't live in a world where it's just
- 49:01Speaker 1: like one point of view, it's multiple. So I listen
- 49:06Speaker 1: and I'll move on after this. If TJ got paid,
- 49:10Speaker 1: I'm just being real. I don't blame him only because
- 49:16Speaker 1: as a child actor that he was, he's only used
- 49:21Speaker 1: to working for conversation and and and and to.
- 49:25Speaker 2: Film a reality show is a lot of work. And
- 49:30Speaker 2: I get it, and I get it, but but but.
- 49:35Speaker 1: It also questions the integrity of this genre because it's
- 49:39Speaker 1: one thing to say he's my best friend who I'm
- 49:42Speaker 1: interested in, but it's one thing to not really reveal
- 49:47Speaker 1: that there's something else going on that we may not know,
- 49:50Speaker 1: so it's all confusing.
- 49:52Speaker 5: That's that's the piece that's confusing.
- 49:54Speaker 2: Yeah, Claudia, I think.
- 49:58Speaker 4: They should be paid.
- 49:59Speaker 3: I think it would avoid a lot of this because
- 50:00Speaker 3: I get tired of this like and you hit this
- 50:01Speaker 3: on so many shays, Oh they paid them to be
- 50:03Speaker 3: there or and or you know, and all this kind
- 50:05Speaker 3: of stuff.
- 50:06Speaker 4: They should they are on part of the storyline.
- 50:08Speaker 3: And then I think you'd also get more people willing
- 50:10Speaker 3: to get on there because I remember towards the end
- 50:12Speaker 3: of my season, well, at the end, y'all wanted me
- 50:13Speaker 3: to come back with someone that I was talking to
- 50:15Speaker 3: someone at the end and it wasn't worth it for
- 50:17Speaker 3: him to risk stuff in his career because he had
- 50:20Speaker 3: a very little successful and public career and there was
- 50:26Speaker 3: no monetary, you know, payment for him. So it causes
- 50:30Speaker 3: people to seek fake relationships and to have people come
- 50:33Speaker 3: play the role because there's pressure to have someone right
- 50:38Speaker 3: or you're the bitter cat lady that can't get a man.
- 50:41Speaker 3: I think it probably help a lot in.
- 50:43Speaker 6: My opinion, anybody working need to get paid straight up.
- 50:47Speaker 6: So if I'm filming a show and the shit I
- 50:49Speaker 6: have to say is a part of what the show
- 50:51Speaker 6: is made of.
- 50:52Speaker 5: I need to be paid. I don't see any problem
- 50:55Speaker 5: with that.
- 50:55Speaker 6: Everybody working to contribute to a project needs to be paid.
- 51:02Speaker 2: Okay.
- 51:03Speaker 1: Our last story of the night is the Grandam who
- 51:08Speaker 1: you know I love her and you know Evanie k
- 51:12Speaker 1: Williams started this this show by discussing Karen being sentenced
- 51:18Speaker 1: to two years in jail one year suspended, which means
- 51:23Speaker 1: she's been sentenced to one.
- 51:25Speaker 2: Year in jail with the other year hanging over her head.
- 51:27Speaker 2: She shall she do something wrong?
- 51:30Speaker 5: Right?
- 51:31Speaker 2: So there was a theme that played at the end.
- 51:34Speaker 1: Of this reunion that made me feel sad. And I'm
- 51:41Speaker 1: gonna explain to you guys why Agrey Child. That made
- 51:48Speaker 1: me feel sad because there's this thing going on that
- 51:55Speaker 1: has been said on Twitter for years about a rehearse
- 51:57Speaker 1: read right, and that a lot of people you can
- 52:01Speaker 1: tell when the reees rehearse because they step on their
- 52:04Speaker 1: words and it's never it's never delivered. So this to me,
- 52:11Speaker 1: watching Karen and Ray felt like a rehearsed scene because
- 52:17Speaker 1: as I was watching it in real time, this is
- 52:20Speaker 1: when the producer side of me clicks in and I
- 52:22Speaker 1: wonder if my audience saw this too, So Claudia and
- 52:24Speaker 1: Dustin would love to get your thoughts. And I'm like,
- 52:27Speaker 1: is this me as a viewer or is this me
- 52:29Speaker 1: as a producer. The way you could tell a scene
- 52:34Speaker 1: feels rehearsed is if every single point has hit where
- 52:39Speaker 1: the two people talking. It's sort of like a tennis
- 52:42Speaker 1: match where where they they give you a you know,
- 52:47Speaker 1: ally who basketball, they give you a word, You take it.
- 52:50Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
- 52:52Speaker 1: So the conversation between Ray and Karen the rehearse to me,
- 52:56Speaker 1: and by rehearse, guys, what I mean is this that
- 52:58Speaker 1: they talked about it. They said, let's let's drive these
- 53:01Speaker 1: points home, the medication, the antidepressants, the beer. And then
- 53:08Speaker 1: I got this because of that, no one talks like
- 53:10Speaker 1: that in real life. And I felt sad because for me,
- 53:15Speaker 1: it was one of those things where I'm like, raise
- 53:20Speaker 1: the good man, Savannah.
- 53:23Speaker 2: I just felt bad because I felt sad. I'm sorry.
- 53:26Speaker 1: I felt sad because I'm like, I wonder if there's
- 53:31Speaker 1: any sort of accountability that's going to happen, because I
- 53:34Speaker 1: think that's I think that's.
- 53:36Speaker 2: The way for you to win in the end. And
- 53:40Speaker 2: I didn't see that in that scene to.
- 53:41Speaker 6: Me me either, and that scene for first of all,
- 53:46Speaker 6: had I been producing that scene, I would have cut
- 53:48Speaker 6: the cameras and had a full stop meeting with Karen
- 53:52Speaker 6: and Ray right then and been like, we can't turn
- 53:54Speaker 6: that in.
- 53:55Speaker 5: Y'all are being real. If we're going to do.
- 53:57Speaker 6: This, we need to show the reality of what's going
- 53:59Speaker 6: on your household right now, because that ain't it.
- 54:02Speaker 5: Karen looked beautiful. I'll say that.
- 54:04Speaker 6: She looks stunning in that white cable knit, you know,
- 54:06Speaker 6: sweater dress. Her hair look good, She looked good. You know,
- 54:10Speaker 6: I feel bad for Ray. It don't feel good to
- 54:13Speaker 6: watch an eighty some year old man who really just
- 54:16Speaker 6: want to be sitting down somewhere watching CBS, drinking some coffee,
- 54:20Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying.
- 54:21Speaker 5: Being old, that's all you want to do. But he
- 54:23Speaker 5: has to be.
- 54:24Speaker 6: Out at court, pulling up to recks on the side
- 54:27Speaker 6: of the road, trying to you know, he's still having
- 54:30Speaker 6: to think like a younger man and think quick on
- 54:33Speaker 6: his feet and come up with scenarios and schemes and
- 54:36Speaker 6: shit in the moment. That's too much for him at
- 54:38Speaker 6: that station in life, right and work, he's retired. Karen
- 54:42Speaker 6: has put him in several situations now because they're married.
- 54:45Speaker 6: It was hard to see that, You're right, that was
- 54:48Speaker 6: not a natural conversation between the two of them. Karen
- 54:51Speaker 6: was trying to say face and it made her look
- 54:53Speaker 6: even worse. And what it showed me was that Karen
- 54:55Speaker 6: don't even get it. She still don't get it at
- 54:58Speaker 6: whatever point that scene was filmed that it had not
- 55:01Speaker 6: clicked in Karen's mind that it is time to literally
- 55:04Speaker 6: abort mission, be fully accountable, and get this shit over with.
- 55:09Speaker 6: She was still trying to be persuasive in that scene
- 55:12Speaker 6: and add details to try to sway public opinion when
- 55:16Speaker 6: it's impossible to do that. So that was sad to see.
- 55:19Speaker 6: I want Karen to go to jail and come home.
- 55:21Speaker 6: I'm ready for her to get that ship over with.
- 55:24Speaker 6: Come out of jail, get on the Zimpie, be a
- 55:27Speaker 6: fashion week, you know what I'm saying, at front row
- 55:29Speaker 6: with her daughter and have that comeback arc and when
- 55:32Speaker 6: she come out of jail, Karen can go into her bag.
- 55:35Speaker 5: But I guess.
- 55:36Speaker 2: Stewart, did you know what I mean?
- 55:38Speaker 5: Like a woman?
- 55:40Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, Get with that stylist that
- 55:42Speaker 6: was working with fantaso.
- 55:46Speaker 5: And that that's doing. Get with him, get.
- 55:50Speaker 6: Your ass to fashion Week in Paris, in New York
- 55:53Speaker 6: and Milan, get on the scene, Karen, and just you know,
- 55:56Speaker 6: try to have a comeback era of sobriety. You know
- 55:59Speaker 6: what I'm mean saying looking good and just being present
- 56:02Speaker 6: because we'll be happy to have you back. We'll be
- 56:04Speaker 6: happy to see you once you take real accountability for
- 56:07Speaker 6: this and just get it the fuck over with. But
- 56:09Speaker 6: that lion shit her and Ray did in that video
- 56:11Speaker 6: did not help at all.
- 56:12Speaker 5: Great.
- 56:13Speaker 4: I think those are all fantastic. I agree with a
- 56:15Speaker 4: lot everything you said.
- 56:16Speaker 3: I will say this, you know, I do think, okay,
- 56:19Speaker 3: how much of that was them with the self rehearsal,
- 56:22Speaker 3: pre planned stuff, or how much it was a negotiation
- 56:25Speaker 3: with producers I'll do this scene, but or maybe they
- 56:28Speaker 3: had talking points, because you do sometimes get points that
- 56:31Speaker 3: you do need to hit when you go into a scene.
- 56:32Speaker 3: Let's just keep it, okay, that is the thing now,
- 56:35Speaker 3: the producer, I'm telling you what to say, but there's
- 56:36Speaker 3: certain things like benchmarks you do have to hit. I
- 56:39Speaker 3: don't know if that was I just wish. I will
- 56:42Speaker 3: say this, Karen, you know, I try to like always
- 56:45Speaker 3: have a little bit of empathy with people like that
- 56:47Speaker 3: have gone through a lot. But at this point, on
- 56:49Speaker 3: your fourth guy, you put a lot of people's lives
- 56:52Speaker 3: at risk, and you have gotten a lot of privilege
- 56:54Speaker 3: and grace, you really have, and you could have killed
- 56:57Speaker 3: people even one minute of driving drunk like that the
- 57:00Speaker 3: way she was sloppy drunk, sloppy?
- 57:07Speaker 4: Have I am I perfect?
- 57:08Speaker 3: Have I ever taken a chance on a ride home
- 57:10Speaker 3: where I'm like not sure?
- 57:11Speaker 5: Yes?
- 57:12Speaker 4: And I'll never do it again. I will not do
- 57:14Speaker 4: it again.
- 57:14Speaker 3: I seen horrific carr because we love, like in our
- 57:17Speaker 3: friends circle, we lost someone recently that tried it.
- 57:20Speaker 4: I'll never do it.
- 57:20Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
- 57:22Speaker 3: It wasn't someone I was in my friend's circle, like
- 57:24Speaker 3: a friend of a friend, and I just saw a
- 57:27Speaker 3: young life that did not have to take that risk.
- 57:30Speaker 3: And Karen, you're on your fourth one. You were given passive.
- 57:37Speaker 4: If I was.
- 57:37Speaker 3: Granted so many passes, I'd feel like, all right, let
- 57:39Speaker 3: me not tempt fake.
- 57:40Speaker 4: But I think what it does, it does the opposite.
- 57:42Speaker 3: It makes you feel invincible, and having no accountability does
- 57:45Speaker 3: create a monster. That's kind of what we've been talking about.
- 57:48Speaker 3: It does create monsters that seemed definitely did feel fake,
- 57:51Speaker 3: and I just wish. I think a lot of people
- 57:53Speaker 3: that are on television it's hard for them to.
- 57:55Speaker 4: Really let go. You're on reality, but are you really
- 57:57Speaker 4: letting go?
- 57:58Speaker 3: And Carlos, you know, with certain people it's been like
- 58:00Speaker 3: pulling teeth right to get them to just forget the
- 58:03Speaker 3: cameras there, really be real and not try to self produce.
- 58:06Speaker 3: Self producing has made some reality shows whack, like get there, Talk, breakless,
- 58:12Speaker 3: be ugly, don't have your perfect makeup, don't have the
- 58:14Speaker 3: three sets of lashes, ugly cry.
- 58:17Speaker 4: I fucked up. I fucked up. I'm taking out it all.
- 58:20Speaker 4: I'm taking this. I'm taking that for whatever your reasons are.
- 58:23Speaker 3: I'm not saying whenever your drug of choices and just
- 58:26Speaker 3: leave it on the table. Have you not seen all
- 58:28Speaker 3: the examples of other people who have fucked up? So
- 58:31Speaker 3: people welcome Mike Tyson back in after raping a black
- 58:35Speaker 3: girl more than you know what I mean, Like there
- 58:38Speaker 3: is redemption, people still cap but r.
- 58:40Speaker 4: Kelly, there are people who still like Diddy.
- 58:43Speaker 3: So I'm saying the public can be forgiving. It's all
- 58:47Speaker 3: in the way you handle it. If you come to
- 58:50Speaker 3: us dirt like ugly cry and keep it a buck
- 58:53Speaker 3: and don't try to give us some fake ass scene.
- 58:55Speaker 4: People are gonna be.
- 58:56Speaker 3: Quicker to get to that point of forgiving you and saying,
- 58:58Speaker 3: all right, man, layoff, let's forgive because black people are
- 59:03Speaker 3: very forgiving people.
- 59:04Speaker 4: And give her another chance.
- 59:05Speaker 3: But you may get a little harder when you kind
- 59:06Speaker 3: of think we're stupid, you know.
- 59:08Speaker 4: And I do feel bad at the hall, but he
- 59:09Speaker 4: looks so damn stressed out.
- 59:12Speaker 5: Yeah, he just wanted to say.
- 59:14Speaker 6: All them scenes when he was filming in the backyard
- 59:17Speaker 6: on that patio furniture and them chase lounges and shit,
- 59:19Speaker 6: he was happier when you saw him relaxing and resting,
- 59:22Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. He was a happier man. So,
- 59:25Speaker 6: you know, Ray just want to take it easy. He's
- 59:28Speaker 6: in that stage.
- 59:30Speaker 3: Car high and he cannot afford it, like his the
- 59:33Speaker 3: eyes look tired. His eyes look tired, and he should be.
- 59:35Speaker 3: That's a lot of drama for a young person.
- 59:38Speaker 4: Imagine that.
- 59:38Speaker 3: It's hard for It's hard for a young person in
- 59:41Speaker 3: those scenarios.
- 59:42Speaker 5: Imagine being imagine poor Ray. You know what I'm saying.
- 59:46Speaker 5: Karen was drunk.
- 59:47Speaker 6: Can you imagine Karen Hue are coming home drunk and
- 59:50Speaker 6: you eighty some years old. Can you imagine what that's like.
- 59:53Speaker 6: That's got to be a lot to deal with, you
- 59:54Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. Ray, that house was quiet. You
- 59:57Speaker 6: know she was pulling up at twelve thirty, one thirty
- 1:00:00Speaker 6: o'clock in the morning after the bar clos.
- 1:00:01Speaker 5: Ray was good and sleep and when.
- 1:00:03Speaker 4: Women want she probably was like, I give me the
- 1:00:10Speaker 4: dirty Ray.
- 1:00:14Speaker 5: So we got to roll over and put your glasses
- 1:00:16Speaker 5: on and shouldn't get up. You know what I'm saying.
- 1:00:18Speaker 5: It's just an interruption overall.
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: So well, no, so I'll say this much. I'll say
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: this much. This was a great reunion. I I love
