- 0:46Speaker 2: was my guy baby's second birthday, and we had a
- 0:50Speaker 2: nice little party for her. And everybody brought their kids,
- 0:54Speaker 2: and it was a cute little shindig. And then, you know,
- 0:56Speaker 2: at night, it turned into an adult party. And, baby,
- 0:59Speaker 2: by the time the sun started going down, I was drunk,
- 1:02Speaker 2: and I was on the bouncy house, and I was
- 1:04Speaker 2: rolling down the slide on the bouncy house. by Sunday
- 1:08Speaker 2: my whole body hurt like I had been in a.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Car accident girl listen we can't be playing the same
- 1:14Speaker 1: like how we used to.
- 1:15Speaker 2: I'm seeing it I did that cartwheel last week and
- 1:18Speaker 2: my rotator cuff fucked up and now the bouncy house
- 1:21Speaker 2: had my whole body sore on Sunday I can't grow up.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Bitch that video you sent me trying to run that
- 1:30Speaker 1: boogie is heavy y'all it's fucking heavy Like Tammy running
- 1:35Speaker 1: slow fucking motion.
- 1:38Speaker 2: I've let a dog or the police get behind me.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Watch how fast I be beat.
- 1:45Speaker 1: My weekend was cool, though. They had a Juneteenth big-ass festival.
- 1:50Speaker 1: This is maybe the third annual now, the third year
- 1:53Speaker 1: they've done it at the waterfront here in North Charleston.
- 1:58Speaker 1: It was from 2 to 10 p.m. I didn't get
- 2:00Speaker 1: out until like 6. I had to wait for the
- 2:01Speaker 1: sun to go down. It was hard as fuck on Saturday.
- 2:05Speaker 1: It was a million people out there. They had very,
- 2:07Speaker 1: very nice fireworks at.
- 2:09Speaker 2: The end of the night.
- 2:10Speaker 1: I was waiting for, like, I wish they would have
- 2:12Speaker 1: did like 2 to 5 for families, right? And then
- 2:16Speaker 1: from 5 to 10 for adults because you can't drink
- 2:18Speaker 1: or smoke out there. Like, that's not fun.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Well, that's not what Juneteenth is about.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Drink your own bottle. Girl, it's like a big ass
- 2:26Speaker 1: family reunion.
- 2:26Speaker 2: All that stuff. That's what it's all about. Kids don't
- 2:30Speaker 2: need to be outside at 10 o'clock.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Juneteenth?
- 2:33Speaker 2: That's like saying kids shouldn't be out before 4th of July.
- 2:38Speaker 1: They shouldn't after a certain time. Shoot. Look, my homegirl,
- 2:43Speaker 1: her neighborhood is only like five black people that live
- 2:45Speaker 1: in the neighborhood. Five black families. She's single. She lives alone.
- 2:49Speaker 1: But she said she came outside and she saw all
- 2:52Speaker 1: the white people had their trash to the street on
- 2:56Speaker 1: Monday and it kind of rubbed her the wrong way.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Like y'all not acknowledging it's Juneteenth. Like trash man ain't coming.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Y'all don't give a fuck.
- 3:08Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know. You know what? They probably are
- 3:10Speaker 2: oblivious to that. Yeah.
- 3:13Speaker 1: They're not thinking about it.
- 3:14Speaker 2: I was waiting on white people. Cause I was around
- 3:16Speaker 2: a lot of white people yesterday, spin class and all
- 3:18Speaker 2: these places. And I was just waiting on white people
- 3:20Speaker 2: to say happy Juneteenth. But they was like, good morning.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Good afternoon. Good evening. That's all I got. It was
- 3:28Speaker 2: no happy Juneteenth, and I felt a way. So I
- 3:30Speaker 2: would say, happy Juneteenth. Oh, yeah. Bitch.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Girl, I don't care nothing about it.
- 3:40Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like I would prefer reparations.
- 3:43Speaker 1: You know, they gave us a day.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Yeah, symbolic. Another day. Another symbolic win.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Where's the money? Cut the check. We need that check, okay?
- 3:52Speaker 1: Nobody asked for this. That's why we got to get
- 3:54Speaker 1: some of these old ass people out of politics.
- 3:56Speaker 2: Because why?
- 3:57Speaker 1: Who asked for that? But anyway, I know Juneteenth, I
- 4:00Speaker 1: understand what it represents, but mainly people in Texas have
- 4:04Speaker 1: always celebrated Juneteenth because them niggas didn't know they was
- 4:07Speaker 1: free down there. That's what had happened.
- 4:09Speaker 2: That's really what happened. Ain't that sad?
- 4:13Speaker 1: I know. I feel like that was happening all over, though.
- 4:16Speaker 1: A lot of people didn't know. It's almost like getting
- 4:18Speaker 1: out of prison. Like, now what?
- 4:20Speaker 2: It's a lot of people who don't know they free today. Period.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Let's talk about it, okay? Or let's not.
- 4:27Speaker 2: Let's save that for another episode. Right. So let's get
- 4:30Speaker 2: into sins of the week. This one is really sad,
- 4:32Speaker 2: and I almost didn't want to talk about it, but
- 4:34Speaker 2: we're going to do it anyway. Russell Simmons probably had
- 4:38Speaker 2: the worst Father's Day of anybody this Father's Day. his
- 4:45Speaker 2: daughter's first, the oldest daughter took to social media to
- 4:49Speaker 2: basically tell her mom, happy father's day. And then Kimora
- 4:55Speaker 2: got on and pretty much blasted him. And then the
- 4:58Speaker 2: young one, she just went crazy with it and posted
- 5:01Speaker 2: like him yelling at her. It was a screen record
- 5:04Speaker 2: with no sound and basically saying that he has been
- 5:09Speaker 2: a poor father figure for those kids, or, well, adults,
- 5:14Speaker 2: because they're young adults now.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:18Speaker 2: And it was sad to watch because, like Jay-Z says,
- 5:22Speaker 2: nobody wins when the family feuds. That's how I feel
- 5:25Speaker 2: about it. It's disheartening to see them going at it because,
- 5:28Speaker 2: I mean, name a family who hasn't had problems, right?
- 5:32Speaker 2: Name one. I'll show you somebody that's lying. Everybody has
- 5:36Speaker 2: had something.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Right now. Right.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Everybody has had something. But what everybody hasn't had is
- 5:44Speaker 2: it public for the world to discuss and to be
- 5:47Speaker 2: on We Talk Back podcast. You know, so. Air it out.
- 5:53Speaker 1: All the family laundry.
- 5:54Speaker 2: Right.
- 5:56Speaker 1: I don't agree with that. I don't agree with how
- 5:58Speaker 1: they are taking it to the Internet. I understand emotions, though.
- 6:02Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
- 6:03Speaker 2: And we don't know what's been going on. I know
- 6:04Speaker 2: one thing.
- 6:05Speaker 1: I kind of I like Russell Simmons.
- 6:06Speaker 2: You know, me too. All that.
- 6:08Speaker 1: But I side-eye him a lot. Is he back in
- 6:10Speaker 1: the United States yet? Because you know he's been in
- 6:12Speaker 1: Bali for a long time.
- 6:13Speaker 2: No, he's in Bali still from what I understand.
- 6:14Speaker 1: Yeah, because he has some allegations hanging on his back
- 6:18Speaker 1: since 2017. Y'all know he was with Kimora for a
- 6:22Speaker 1: long time. He was a teenager when they got together.
- 6:26Speaker 1: He was 41 when they got married and she was
- 6:28Speaker 1: like 22, 23 years old. He raised her. So I
- 6:33Speaker 1: can just.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Imagine the emotional trauma that she may have been.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Through all of these years too. So we can't really like,
- 6:41Speaker 1: like we had the episode on, you know, who, who's
- 6:43Speaker 1: able to grieve and all that publicly. We can't really
- 6:47Speaker 1: dictate how people choose to express. Yeah. Trauma.
- 6:51Speaker 2: I don't have a dog in this fight. Honestly, I
- 6:54Speaker 2: just feel like it's sad and hopefully they can figure
- 6:57Speaker 2: out how to be a family, you know, to be
- 7:01Speaker 2: a healthy family. That's what I wish for us all though.
- 7:03Speaker 1: So, so the one thing, um, So Kamora Lee's ex-husband,
- 7:11Speaker 1: what is his name? Tim Lesner. So that guy, all
- 7:14Speaker 1: of them are all wrapped up in that shit that
- 7:17Speaker 1: was going on with Praz Michael, with the Fugees and
- 7:22Speaker 1: this Asian fund that these people were embezzling money from.
- 7:24Speaker 1: So apparently Russell Simmons is saying that Kamora sold some
- 7:28Speaker 1: of his stock shares to pay for her now ex-husband's
- 7:32Speaker 1: legal defense. In that particular case. So it's fucking wild.
- 7:35Speaker 1: These people, this shit is deep. All of it is
- 7:38Speaker 1: real deep. And it's just crazy to watch it play out,
- 7:42Speaker 1: unfold right before your eyes. You just got to be
- 7:45Speaker 1: paying attention. But girl, this is stupid, real stupid internet
- 7:50Speaker 1: news now. So this man actually, I saw this on
- 7:53Speaker 1: social media. One of my favorite Instagram pages, mindset.therapy. So
- 7:59Speaker 1: this man commented on his own wanted poster on fucking Facebook.
- 8:06Speaker 1: So this is from Richland, Washington Police Department. It says
- 8:09Speaker 1: wanted Wednesday. They have this thing called wanted Wednesday. Anthony Akers, 38,
- 8:14Speaker 1: is wanted by the Department of Corrections for failure to comply.
- 8:18Speaker 1: If you have any information, call. This fool comments and says,
- 8:22Speaker 1: Calm down. I'm going to turn myself in. Look, they
- 8:27Speaker 1: replied back like, hey, Anthony, we haven't seen you yet.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Our business hours are 8 to 5, Monday through Friday.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Of course, if you need a ride, you can call non-emergency, 509-628-0333,
- 8:38Speaker 1: and we'll pick you up.
- 8:43Speaker 2: Relax. Y'all ain't got to post my picture. I'm coming.
- 8:47Speaker 1: He replies back and says, Thank you. Tying up a
- 8:51Speaker 1: couple loose ends since I will probably be in there
- 8:53Speaker 1: for a month. Should be in there in the next
- 8:55Speaker 1: 48 hours. And five days later, they come in and
- 9:01Speaker 1: say he has turned himself in.
- 9:03Speaker 2: Well, at least he's a stand-up guy, you know? I
- 9:06Speaker 2: wouldn't comment shit. Y'all just gonna have to find me.
- 9:08Speaker 2: That's y'all job.
- 9:10Speaker 1: Period. Y'all gonna have to do y'all job. I'm about
- 9:12Speaker 1: to help you.
- 9:15Speaker 2: So, I don't know if you saw this, but There's
- 9:19Speaker 2: a podcast by Megan James called Hollywood Group Chat Podcast.
- 9:24Speaker 2: And she had Johnny Blaze on. And during the interview,
- 9:29Speaker 2: she says to Johnny Blaze, like, something along the lines
- 9:32Speaker 2: about her still being a crackhead. And if she's no
- 9:36Speaker 2: longer a crackhead, pretty much to prove it, and she
- 9:38Speaker 2: pulls out a drug test. And then she calls to
- 9:42Speaker 2: the makeup artist and is like, what's your name? She
- 9:45Speaker 2: going to go in the bathroom with you to do
- 9:47Speaker 2: this drug test. And, um.
- 9:49Speaker 1: That stank.
- 9:51Speaker 2: I saw the video. Right. When it... The video posted, like,
- 9:54Speaker 2: people was dragging, raking Megan James over the coals, baby.
- 9:57Speaker 2: They was coming for her about, how she was coming
- 10:00Speaker 2: at Johnny Blaze. And Johnny Blaze responded saying basically people
- 10:04Speaker 2: be trying her and doing her any kind of way.
- 10:07Speaker 2: But then Megan James came back and said, like, you
- 10:10Speaker 2: asked me to give you this drug test, and you
- 10:12Speaker 2: begged me to come on this show, and it's crazy
- 10:16Speaker 2: that you would allow people to drag me like this
- 10:18Speaker 2: when this whole thing was your idea. So I get
- 10:22Speaker 2: both perspectives, but maybe it was Megan James' delivery that
- 10:26Speaker 2: was just kind of off-putting. It was her whole attitude.
- 10:29Speaker 1: It was stink. You know what I'm saying? Yes, this
- 10:31Speaker 1: is a guess. No matter... how she ended up there.
- 10:34Speaker 1: She's a guest. It's almost like she brought her up
- 10:36Speaker 1: there to embarrass her. I saw the videos. It got
- 10:39Speaker 1: to a point where Johnny was like, pass me my
- 10:43Speaker 1: cell phone. Can you record what's going on? You know
- 10:46Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Can you stream what's going on? Because
- 10:48Speaker 1: she was clearly uncomfortable. I don't think she deserved to
- 10:51Speaker 1: be treated like that. I've met her before in the
- 10:53Speaker 1: actual strip club in Houston. Very nice girl back in
- 10:56Speaker 1: the day. She was much smaller, cute, fine as hell,
- 10:59Speaker 1: bitches in there, on her fucking head. Nice girl.
- 11:03Speaker 2: I don't think she deserves to be treated like that.
- 11:04Speaker 2: She's highly talented.
- 11:05Speaker 1: Right.
- 11:06Speaker 2: She's very talented. And you know, it surprised me because
- 11:09Speaker 2: she is a fighter.
- 11:10Speaker 1: I'm surprised.
- 11:11Speaker 2: She's just, that's why I felt like maybe she was
- 11:13Speaker 2: in on it because why are you letting this girl
- 11:16Speaker 2: call you a crackhead?
- 11:17Speaker 1: Trying to have a viral moment. They got it.
- 11:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 11:21Speaker 1: They got what they asked for. I'm not doing anything
- 11:23Speaker 1: for TV, man.
- 11:24Speaker 2: Right. Not at the expense of somebody's, you know, feelings,
- 11:29Speaker 2: I guess.
- 11:30Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Like, I'm not trying to hurt nobody to get a
- 11:33Speaker 2: viral moment. It's not that deep.
- 11:35Speaker 1: But it may also be Johnny Blaze trying to get
- 11:39Speaker 1: the viral moment as well. They're talking about her now.
- 11:42Speaker 1: They're talking about Megan James. That may have been the goal.
- 11:45Speaker 1: It may not have been delivered in a way that
- 11:47Speaker 1: Johnny Blaze anticipated it for.
- 11:49Speaker 2: I think that was the goal. It was the goal
- 11:52Speaker 2: to vindicate herself of the drug rumors.
- 11:58Speaker 1: But She was sniffing coke online, dog. I saw it.
- 12:01Speaker 1: She was on live sniffing coke. I saw that shit
- 12:04Speaker 1: with my own eyes, bro.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Rick James said cocaine is a hell of a drug, so.
- 12:08Speaker 1: Woo!
- 12:11Speaker 2: It's not safe anymore, though, guys. Be careful. If you
- 12:16Speaker 2: like to party, get you some Narcan or something. Keep
- 12:19Speaker 2: it close by.
- 12:20Speaker 1: Yeah. One thing that did happen, so I'm at my mom's, right?
- 12:25Speaker 1: And I hear some voices, so apparently my cousin... And
- 12:29Speaker 1: her daughter came over. Like, my cousin, she's 60-something years old. Recently,
- 12:33Speaker 1: she did overdose. She made it.
- 12:37Speaker 2: 60 years old, overdosing?
- 12:39Speaker 1: 65.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Dang.
- 12:40Speaker 1: She might be, yeah, 65. Just last year, another cousin
- 12:44Speaker 1: of mine actually died in her home.
- 12:48Speaker 2: From cocaine?
- 12:48Speaker 1: I don't know if they were doing.
- 12:50Speaker 2: Yes.
- 12:51Speaker 1: So now.
- 12:53Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
- 12:53Speaker 1: I hear her. I mean, like, listen.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Listen.
- 12:57Speaker 1: I don't judge people life choices. You know, I can't,
- 13:00Speaker 1: I can't feel for your life more than you do.
- 13:02Speaker 1: So whatever your choices are, I'm happy for you. That's
- 13:04Speaker 1: really where I'm at. You know what I'm saying? I'm not,
- 13:06Speaker 1: I'm no longer into defending myself against people and I'm
- 13:10Speaker 1: not going to put anybody in a position to defend
- 13:12Speaker 1: how they choose to live their lives anymore. But I
- 13:15Speaker 1: was cracking the fuck up because I heard her say
- 13:18Speaker 1: all this time. I know I had a bad heart.
- 13:21Speaker 1: like girl you been smoking crack like I'm 39 like
- 13:25Speaker 1: you been smoking crack my whole life what do you
- 13:27Speaker 1: mean you thought your heart was gonna stay good all the.
- 13:29Speaker 2: Time well do crack affect the heart I would assume.
- 13:32Speaker 1: So if it didn't affect it the last 39 years
- 13:35Speaker 1: this 40th year is gonna affect it girl cause fentanyl
- 13:38Speaker 1: out here you gotta figure something else out I need
- 13:41Speaker 1: you to get you some gummies ayahuasca something else to
- 13:44Speaker 1: feed the thing because you gonna get the fuck up
- 13:47Speaker 1: out of here if you don't yeah I agree You
- 13:50Speaker 1: got to make a choice right now with these people
- 13:52Speaker 1: who choose. Y'all obviously playing Russian roulette for real. You
- 13:56Speaker 1: just waiting on your turn. Crack is wet. Waiting on
- 13:59Speaker 1: your moment. Anyway, y'all. Okay, this week's episode, it started
- 14:05Speaker 1: off talking about singleness. Okay, because we're sick of men
- 14:10Speaker 1: in particular telling black women they're going to live and
- 14:12Speaker 1: die alone. Even if you get married, nine times out
- 14:15Speaker 1: of ten, you're going to die a widow anyway. So
- 14:17Speaker 1: men are always getting taken care of, so y'all can
- 14:19Speaker 1: just shut the hell up. Anyway, but somehow the argument,
- 14:23Speaker 1: I mean, excuse me, not an argument.
- 14:25Speaker 2: No, you said it right.
- 14:27Speaker 1: But somehow the fucking episode took a major turn, and
- 14:30Speaker 1: we're going to go ahead and put it out because, listen,
- 14:31Speaker 1: it's real. It's shit that goes on in business, friendships,
- 14:36Speaker 1: your love life. You're going to fucking argue. So that's
- 14:40Speaker 1: what happened.
- 14:40Speaker 2: Like to hear it, here it goes. What's up, y'all?
- 14:46Speaker 1: Thank you for tuning in for a new episode of
- 14:48Speaker 1: We Talk Back TV.
- 14:50Speaker 2: What's up, Tam? Hey, girl. Hey, y'all. Thank y'all for
- 14:53Speaker 2: coming back.
- 14:54Speaker 1: I got to stop saying am. Why do I do that?
- 14:56Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a black girl thing.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. Don't stop.
- 15:00Speaker 1: So we did have a good time at the... Kerwin
- 15:04Speaker 1: Claiborne comedy show. This nigga is so funny.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Everybody on the lineup was funny. It was a really
- 15:10Speaker 2: good show. I enjoyed myself.
- 15:12Speaker 1: I don't remember the other comedians' names. I'm so sorry.
- 15:14Speaker 1: I did follow them on Instagram, though, but I don't
- 15:16Speaker 1: remember their names.
- 15:17Speaker 2: One's name was Jessie. One's name was Hootie. Wody. Wody.
- 15:23Speaker 1: That's what it was.
- 15:23Speaker 2: Wody. Wody. And then the other one guy, I didn't
- 15:26Speaker 2: get the other guy.
- 15:27Speaker 1: All I know his t-shirt said, I'm a superhero to
- 15:29Speaker 1: my kids.
- 15:29Speaker 2: Yeah, it was good. I love that. All of them
- 15:31Speaker 2: were really good. And then, of course, Kerwin Claiborne was
- 15:34Speaker 2: just amazing.
- 15:35Speaker 1: He's so funny. He's just funny for no damn reason, man.
- 15:37Speaker 1: You know, like, it's like you almost get tired of
- 15:39Speaker 1: people being that funny. Like, go, man.
- 15:41Speaker 2: I don't feel like laughing no more. Like my face hurt, right?
- 15:44Speaker 1: I don't feel like laughing no more.
- 15:45Speaker 2: Like this morning, I felt like I did crunches last night.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Because my abs from contracting from laughing. Yes.
- 15:53Speaker 1: So, you know, I want to do an episode today
- 15:56Speaker 1: to talk about singleness. And why it seems like women
- 16:06Speaker 1: are shunned for being single for some reason. All while
- 16:13Speaker 1: men is like, you know, I'm outside. It's cool for
- 16:17Speaker 1: men to be outside, but.
- 16:18Speaker 2: Do you feel shunned by people? Like people are saying
- 16:21Speaker 2: things to you? Absolutely.
- 16:22Speaker 1: Like the older you get now, listen, and social media
- 16:25Speaker 1: be ripping us a whole new one. Oh, yeah.
- 16:28Speaker 2: I try not to. Anytime I actually go read those comments.
- 16:31Speaker 2: How do you feel?
- 16:32Speaker 1: How does it make you feel?
- 16:33Speaker 2: Sometimes I'll be offended and I'll be like, oh, I'm
- 16:35Speaker 2: about to go cuss this motherfucker out.
- 16:36Speaker 1: Because we talk back, bitch, because who you talking to?
- 16:38Speaker 2: Right, and I will go to your page and rip
- 16:40Speaker 2: you to shreds, right? But then sometimes, some of them
- 16:42Speaker 2: be funny. Like, I'll laugh because I know I don't,
- 16:45Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not no skinny girl, but I ain't
- 16:47Speaker 2: no refrigerator. Like, that's a bit of a stretch, sir.
- 16:50Speaker 1: You know, so I'm looking on social media. I'm like, wait,
- 16:54Speaker 1: I didn't comment on this person thing. Like I'm thinking
- 16:57Speaker 1: I'm on my page. But y'all is Tam ass comment
- 17:00Speaker 1: for the podcast page on a nigga's personal page.
- 17:03Speaker 2: Talk about his ass. You're ugly. Your hairline fucked up.
- 17:11Speaker 2: You got to do that to people.
- 17:12Speaker 1: I almost want to start like screenshot people and then
- 17:15Speaker 1: posting them on a page and roasting the fuck out
- 17:16Speaker 1: their ass.
- 17:17Speaker 2: Right.
- 17:17Speaker 1: I swear I want to do that because do it.
- 17:20Speaker 1: What's your mama looking like? What's your first baby mama
- 17:22Speaker 1: looking like?
- 17:22Speaker 2: Why are you coming over here to just be mean?
- 17:25Speaker 2: If you don't like what we're saying, okay, it's one thing.
- 17:27Speaker 2: But you're just coming over here to assassinate our bodies
- 17:31Speaker 2: and all these things. For what reason?
- 17:33Speaker 1: And that's another thing women can't do that men can.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Women can't be ugly, but men can be. That's another
- 17:40Speaker 1: thing I don't understand. What do you see when you
- 17:43Speaker 1: look in the mirror, sir?
- 17:45Speaker 2: It gives you all this confidence. The audacity of that
- 17:48Speaker 2: nigga to come over there and talk shit about us.
- 17:50Speaker 1: I think society teaches women to like over judge themselves.
- 17:55Speaker 2: Here's the thing. They placed value in what we look like, right?
- 17:59Speaker 2: Our greatest value is in our appearance. And in men,
- 18:02Speaker 2: their greatest value is in their possessions. You know, what
- 18:05Speaker 2: can they afford?
- 18:06Speaker 1: Right.
- 18:06Speaker 2: So they feel like they can be ugly as long
- 18:08Speaker 2: as they're rich. And we can be rich as long
- 18:11Speaker 2: as we're beautiful.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Girl, these guys on the internet are not rich. These
- 18:16Speaker 1: are not rich niggas that's in the comments. Rich men
- 18:18Speaker 1: do not have time to come on our page to comment.
- 18:21Speaker 1: And look, I'm going to be clear. It's cool if
- 18:23Speaker 1: y'all come talk shit on the page. I've already said this.
- 18:26Speaker 1: But you got to follow. We have to get that
- 18:28Speaker 1: social digital currency. You're not just going to come over
- 18:30Speaker 1: here and talk shit and not follow our page at
- 18:33Speaker 1: the same time.
- 18:34Speaker 2: It's just weirdo behavior.
- 18:36Speaker 1: Even, like, when I comment on someone else's page, like,
- 18:40Speaker 1: if I make a comment and you got motherfuckers commenting
- 18:42Speaker 1: crazy shit, I never comment on anybody's comment unless I'm
- 18:46Speaker 1: in agreeance. If I don't agree with it, I just
- 18:49Speaker 1: keep scrolling.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Right.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Like, why are you here? I'm confused.
- 18:54Speaker 2: Child, because they ain't got shit else to do.
- 18:56Speaker 1: I'm confused.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Say what you want to say, but just know that
- 18:59Speaker 2: if I'm bored... I will come on your page.
- 19:02Speaker 1: If I got fucking time.
- 19:03Speaker 2: And rip you apart for fun.
- 19:06Speaker 1: A nigga was like two tons of fun on a
- 19:09Speaker 1: picture where we look fucking immaculate.
- 19:11Speaker 2: Like what are you talking about? First of all, we
- 19:13Speaker 2: could slip.
- 19:14Speaker 1: And slide across all y'all forehead if we feel like it.
- 19:18Speaker 2: Okay. And you're going to let us. Period. Not slip
- 19:22Speaker 2: and slide across the forehead.
- 19:24Speaker 1: Slip and slide across the nigga forehead. And they're going
- 19:27Speaker 1: to let us. So you over there talking shit. I'm confused.
- 19:30Speaker 2: So are you happy single?
- 19:33Speaker 1: Yes, because I'm out of like I'm not going to
- 19:36Speaker 1: say fresh out of relationship because it's almost going to
- 19:38Speaker 1: be what a year and a half and a minute.
- 19:41Speaker 1: So it's not fresh. But I had been in relationships
- 19:45Speaker 1: for like a decade.
- 19:46Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 19:47Speaker 1: So, yeah, like, you know, I don't drink. is now
- 19:51Speaker 1: that I don't want to call it waste of time
- 19:53Speaker 1: because I feel like only women like equate like relationship
- 19:56Speaker 1: time like it's a waste when they don't get what
- 19:58Speaker 1: they want at the end of the day but you
- 20:00Speaker 1: learn something from it so now I know exactly what
- 20:02Speaker 1: I want and I know exactly what I don't want
- 20:05Speaker 1: So now when I see that thing I don't want,
- 20:07Speaker 1: I can leave it quicker.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:08Speaker 1: As opposed to before, like I'm sitting in a relationship
- 20:11Speaker 1: of five years, unfulfilled, unhappy.
- 20:14Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:14Speaker 1: So I think now I'm more equipped to get into
- 20:17Speaker 1: a better relationship because I know for sure now I
- 20:19Speaker 1: want a fucking happy man. Because I'm genuinely happy. Generally
- 20:23Speaker 1: happy even when my life looking stupid. Like I'm a
- 20:27Speaker 1: happy person. But if you're dealing with a man who's
- 20:30Speaker 1: not content with who he is, he's going to make sure...
- 20:34Speaker 1: Your ass unhappy, too.
- 20:36Speaker 2: I remember my ex-boyfriend, I used to come home from
- 20:39Speaker 2: work and I used to be like, hey, baby. And
- 20:41Speaker 2: he'd be like, what the fuck you so happy about, y'all? Ooh,
- 20:44Speaker 2: that's a demon. I just seen you eight hours ago. Like, damn,
- 20:48Speaker 2: I've never seen someone so miserable to be happy.
- 20:51Speaker 1: That's a demon. Like, imagine.
- 20:53Speaker 2: He used to get mad at me for being happy.
- 20:55Speaker 2: But am I happy single right now? I'm happy with
- 21:00Speaker 2: me single. I'm not happy to be single anymore. I
- 21:03Speaker 2: think I'm ready to have a relationship. And it dawned
- 21:08Speaker 2: on me more here recently when I was trying to
- 21:11Speaker 2: plan my 25th birthday celebration. For the fifth time. Yeah.
- 21:17Speaker 2: For the tenth time.
- 21:19Speaker 1: Go on.
- 21:20Speaker 2: And I realized that I didn't have a bae. I
- 21:22Speaker 2: didn't have anyone to, like, go on vacation with. That
- 21:25Speaker 2: is not true.
- 21:26Speaker 1: Women always have someone.
- 21:28Speaker 2: Okay, I have someone, but I didn't have anyone that
- 21:30Speaker 2: I loved to go on vacation with. Or, yeah, so
- 21:35Speaker 2: it was just like, ugh, this is kind of sad.
- 21:38Speaker 2: And then sometimes, like, I'll be content all day, and
- 21:41Speaker 2: then I'll walk in the house, and I'm like, making
- 21:43Speaker 2: my dinner and I'm making my dinner for one and
- 21:46Speaker 2: I'm just sitting in there eating my little dinner on
- 21:49Speaker 2: my little tray table watching from on Prime or some
- 21:53Speaker 2: shit like that.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Oh, I've watched that.
- 21:54Speaker 2: It's good. Yeah, I like it. And I realized, damn,
- 21:58Speaker 2: I'm in here doing this every night by myself. It's not,
- 22:02Speaker 2: I don't like that. And like the options are out there, right?
- 22:07Speaker 2: The options are out there and I entertain here and
- 22:10Speaker 2: I entertain there, but Maybe my picker is broken. That's
- 22:13Speaker 2: what my grandma used to say. Your picker broken? Yeah.
- 22:17Speaker 1: Interesting.
- 22:20Speaker 2: I pick wrong sometimes, I think.
- 22:22Speaker 1: I think we all pick wrong because sometimes we're just
- 22:24Speaker 1: attracted to the opposite. Well, I don't even say that.
- 22:28Speaker 1: I feel like usually when you date somebody, you see
- 22:30Speaker 1: a little bit of you in them. That's why you
- 22:31Speaker 1: end up fucking with them in the first place. But
- 22:34Speaker 1: maybe it's a part of you that you need to
- 22:36Speaker 1: improve on. Why you keep picking this particular type of person.
- 22:41Speaker 2: I'm a dog, I'm a dog, I'm a dog, I'm
- 22:43Speaker 2: a dog. I can be.
- 22:48Speaker 1: I can be a dog, man. That's why I have
- 22:51Speaker 1: a lot of empathy. That's why cheating is not the end.
- 22:58Speaker 1: My next relationship, I really want somebody who let me flirt.
- 23:02Speaker 2: That's all I want to do.
- 23:04Speaker 1: I'm not trying to smash nobody else. I just want
- 23:06Speaker 1: to still get niggas to buy me drinks at the club.
- 23:10Speaker 2: Like, when I hang out once a month with my homegirl.
- 23:13Speaker 2: I don't think men would like that, though. You know,
- 23:16Speaker 2: any man who has, like, ego, which most do. Get
- 23:19Speaker 2: rid of your damn ego. Yeah, ego death, right?
- 23:21Speaker 1: Yeah, a little bit.
- 23:22Speaker 2: But I don't think that's the thing, especially with black men.
- 23:24Speaker 2: I can't speak to black men. It ain't coming out
- 23:25Speaker 2: of his pocket.
- 23:26Speaker 1: Like, he should be happy that he don't have to
- 23:28Speaker 1: give me money to go to the club.
- 23:30Speaker 2: Well, probably most men would be like, They don't mind
- 23:35Speaker 2: paying for their girl's drinks to not be in the
- 23:37Speaker 2: nigga face, right?
- 23:40Speaker 1: It's just more like, can I get it? Can I
- 23:43Speaker 1: do it?
- 23:44Speaker 2: You want to make sure you still got it. Yes.
- 23:46Speaker 1: Do you remember when people was dragging... Aisha Curry. Yes,
- 23:50Speaker 1: when people were dragging Aisha Curry because she said she...
- 23:53Speaker 1: Women want to feel wanted. Men like to refer to
- 23:56Speaker 1: shit in the Bible, right? So the Bible says... Man
- 24:00Speaker 1: should not be alone, right? So he created a woman
- 24:02Speaker 1: from the rib. You know the creation story, right? And
- 24:06Speaker 1: then he also said for a man to love woman
- 24:08Speaker 1: as Christ loved the church. It don't say nothing about
- 24:11Speaker 1: a woman loving a man. Women have to feel loved.
- 24:16Speaker 1: Women have to feel wanted. So if you're not making
- 24:22Speaker 1: your woman feel wanted, you've got so familiar with her,
- 24:26Speaker 1: and she's now seeking validation from other men, That's your fault.
- 24:33Speaker 1: That's your fault.
- 24:34Speaker 2: I don't know, AJ. Here's the thing. I feel like
- 24:37Speaker 2: we could, you know, quote in the Bible, we could
- 24:39Speaker 2: probably find somewhere where it says a woman should love
- 24:42Speaker 2: her husband in there somewhere. No, it's not in there.
- 24:46Speaker 2: Nowhere in the Bible does it say that a woman
- 24:49Speaker 2: should love?
- 24:50Speaker 1: It says man should love the woman as Christ loved
- 24:52Speaker 1: the church. It don't really say.
- 24:54Speaker 2: And that's the only place in the Bible they speak
- 24:56Speaker 2: of love?
- 24:57Speaker 1: No.
- 24:59Speaker 2: You know, I don't know. I'm sure we need a pastor. Yeah,
- 25:03Speaker 2: tell us in the comments.
- 25:04Speaker 1: Right.
- 25:04Speaker 2: Let us know. Because the question is going to come out.
- 25:06Speaker 1: Right.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Well, listen, I bet you they won't prove me wrong.
- 25:08Speaker 2: All right, we're going to see what happens.
- 25:10Speaker 1: Women are to be loved.
- 25:12Speaker 2: I think men are to be loved, too. I think
- 25:13Speaker 2: we are all to be loved.
- 25:14Speaker 1: I'm not saying we're not, like, men. But why do
- 25:17Speaker 1: we have to grow.
- 25:18Speaker 2: To love them, though? What do you mean?
- 25:23Speaker 1: Oftentimes, when women get married, because they're tired of being single...
- 25:26Speaker 1: They find somebody because we will never be single if
- 25:29Speaker 1: we don't want to be. Let's take, for instance, the
- 25:32Speaker 1: girl that's on Marriage After Lockup or whatever.
- 25:36Speaker 2: What's the name of the show? The Monique girl, right?
- 25:38Speaker 1: And we'll get into what the fuck she got going
- 25:40Speaker 1: on with her ex-boyfriend, Derek. But even though people will
- 25:47Speaker 1: talk shit about her aesthetically, right? That woman can still
- 25:49Speaker 1: get a man. All women can get a man. Can
- 25:53Speaker 1: we say that all men can get a woman?
- 25:55Speaker 2: Do they got $ 40? I feel like everybody can get somebody, right? Everybody. Even,
- 26:04Speaker 2: I've seen, remember them people with them nasty teeth they
- 26:06Speaker 2: was in there kissing on Instagram? Like, went viral. And
- 26:09Speaker 2: they looked like they was in love. Everybody can get somebody.
- 26:13Speaker 2: Man and woman, I think. You just gotta stay in
- 26:16Speaker 2: your holler level, that's all.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Right, right. But why is it that women catch hell
- 26:22Speaker 1: from other women? You catch on from your granny for
- 26:25Speaker 1: being single? Your mama?
- 26:28Speaker 2: My grandma used to tell everybody I was a lesbian.
- 26:30Speaker 1: She used to talk shit about me.
- 26:34Speaker 2: Y'all, I remember one time. This was back when the
- 26:37Speaker 2: Kangol hats were. Yes, you are.
- 26:39Speaker 1: Go ahead.
- 26:40Speaker 2: I am not. It wasn't a Kangol hat, but it
- 26:45Speaker 2: was the Kangol style of hat. And I had it
- 26:48Speaker 2: on with this little vest. I look really cute. This
- 26:50Speaker 2: was a cute little outfit I had on. And I came.
- 26:52Speaker 2: That's what you thought. I really did look cute. It
- 26:55Speaker 2: was such a cute look. People were telling me I
- 26:56Speaker 2: looked cute that day because it had, like, the railroad
- 26:58Speaker 2: kind of pattern in it. It was really cute. So
- 27:02Speaker 2: I got home, and I got out the car, and
- 27:04Speaker 2: my sister, my grandma, and my sister's best friend, Niecy,
- 27:08Speaker 2: they was standing under a tree, right, just catching some shade.
- 27:11Speaker 2: And my grandma was like, hey, baby. I said, hey, grandma.
- 27:15Speaker 2: And I kept walking. And I said, hey, y'all. And
- 27:17Speaker 2: they was like, hey. And then I kept walking. All
- 27:20Speaker 2: of them bust out laughing real loud. So I looked
- 27:22Speaker 2: back and it was like, hey, right? So, you know,
- 27:26Speaker 2: you can tell when somebody talking about you, right? So
- 27:29Speaker 2: then finally my sister came in the house. I said,
- 27:30Speaker 2: what grandma said about me? Because I know it was
- 27:32Speaker 2: my grandma. She said, as soon as you turn your back,
- 27:34Speaker 2: she said. And started like tilting her head side to side.
- 27:41Speaker 2: And I was like, grandma, why are you telling people
- 27:44Speaker 2: I'm gay? She was like, well, you got on that
- 27:46Speaker 2: gay hat. Just because of a hat? You ain't got
- 27:50Speaker 2: no man.
- 27:50Speaker 1: Uh-uh. See, like why?
- 27:54Speaker 2: So a woman is, we ain't shit unless we attached
- 27:56Speaker 2: to a man. Gay hat and no man equals gay.
- 28:01Speaker 1: I thought about this topic because I thought about this
- 28:03Speaker 1: topic because in our comments on social media, and I
- 28:06Speaker 1: also see this on other women's social medias, especially people
- 28:09Speaker 1: who are in the podcast world. Like that's the go-to
- 28:12Speaker 1: for a lot of these guys. Y'all ain't got no man. Listen,
- 28:15Speaker 1: this is fucking entertainment. I got niggas.
- 28:18Speaker 2: Okay.
- 28:18Speaker 1: And I can choose one when I want to. Every
- 28:22Speaker 1: woman I feel like can. Yeah, I agree. I agree.
- 28:25Speaker 1: So imagine you thinking you know my life because of
- 28:29Speaker 1: this internet shit. And even the guy friends who I
- 28:32Speaker 1: have platonic relationships with, I'm an amazing person.
- 28:35Speaker 2: They love me. Like I have a lot of people,
- 28:37Speaker 2: a lot of guys that love me.
- 28:39Speaker 1: Y'all niggas don't know us. Right. That's the bottom line.
- 28:41Speaker 2: Do you feel like you have like a lot of
- 28:44Speaker 2: platonic relationships with men?
- 28:46Speaker 1: Yeah. And some people I may have been intimate with
- 28:50Speaker 1: at some point. You know what I'm saying? And some not. Yeah.
- 28:54Speaker 2: I find it hard for me to sustain healthy platonic
- 28:58Speaker 2: relationships with men. Why? Because they always try to fuck
- 29:01Speaker 2: at some point.
- 29:03Speaker 1: Well, they say that women can't have male friends because
- 29:06Speaker 1: niggas try to fuck at some point.
- 29:08Speaker 2: Right.
- 29:09Speaker 1: Men just don't have integrity, man. Because I feel like
- 29:11Speaker 1: if I call any of my platonic, like, it could be.
- 29:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 29:14Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. If I call them and be like, hey, I
- 29:16Speaker 1: want to give you this pussy today, they're going to
- 29:18Speaker 1: take it.
- 29:18Speaker 2: Right. Right. I have one friend here, like, I just,
- 29:22Speaker 2: I love him so much as my friend. But I
- 29:25Speaker 2: can't be his friend. Because anytime we hang out, he
- 29:28Speaker 2: be like, let's get married tomorrow. You know, basically, like,
- 29:31Speaker 2: on that level.
- 29:31Speaker 1: But don't we say that, oh, your mate should be
- 29:34Speaker 1: your friend? Don't we say that?
- 29:35Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't see him in that light. I
- 29:37Speaker 2: see him like a brother, not someone that I... could
- 29:40Speaker 2: be intimate with.
- 29:41Speaker 1: You know what's weird? Because as soon as a man
- 29:42Speaker 1: makes up in his mind that he likes you in
- 29:44Speaker 1: that way, it's like you automatically supposed to like him
- 29:48Speaker 1: like that. As if we don't have preference.
- 29:51Speaker 2: And he's like, why we don't hang out no more?
- 29:54Speaker 2: And I don't want to be like, because you can't
- 29:57Speaker 2: keep it. player you know like just keep it cool
- 30:01Speaker 2: we friends i want to be.
- 30:02Speaker 1: Your friend he like throw out a little sexual and
- 30:05Speaker 1: doing indie windows and stuff like that yeah he'd be like.
- 30:08Speaker 2: Let me hold your feet let me rub your feet
- 30:10Speaker 2: and i'm like nigga chill let's smoke this blood and
- 30:13Speaker 2: watch this basketball game and they get like what's up
- 30:16Speaker 2: like i don't want you to rub my feet you
- 30:18Speaker 2: know like even though i would love my feet rub
- 30:20Speaker 2: i don't want to take advantage of what this is
- 30:24Speaker 2: and it's not that you know mm-hmm That would be
- 30:27Speaker 2: fucked up to be letting a nigga I don't care
- 30:29Speaker 2: about in that way just be rubbing on my feet
- 30:31Speaker 2: and shit like that.
- 30:32Speaker 1: You might fuck around and fall on some dick.
- 30:36Speaker 2: No, I don't want that. Get somebody else to do it.
- 30:41Speaker 1: Fuck around and fall on some dick.
- 30:42Speaker 2: You just got to be careful. I had to learn
- 30:44Speaker 2: the hard way about how you handle people when it
- 30:48Speaker 2: comes to people's emotions and things like that with men.
- 30:51Speaker 2: I don't want to play with nobody. And I don't
- 30:53Speaker 2: want to give any false ideas about what this could be.
- 30:56Speaker 1: Right.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Because you fuck around and have somebody stalking your ass.
- 30:58Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not a fun girl. I can't pretend like
- 31:00Speaker 1: I like you just for, like, things and attention.
- 31:05Speaker 2: I can't pretend.
- 31:05Speaker 1: I used to be.
- 31:06Speaker 2: Able to a long time ago, like, in my 20s.
- 31:10Speaker 2: I definitely went on a trip with a guy, been
- 31:11Speaker 2: on trips with guys that, like, I kind of like.
- 31:14Speaker 2: I like them. I don't like them like them.
- 31:17Speaker 1: I'm not putting myself in a close setting with anybody
- 31:21Speaker 1: I don't like.
- 31:22Speaker 2: No, like, it was never no, but, like, I've never
- 31:24Speaker 2: been out with, like, somebody, like, I didn't like at all.
- 31:27Speaker 2: But it wasn't like, oh, he's so amazing, I just
- 31:30Speaker 2: want to hang out with him. It was like, he's cool,
- 31:35Speaker 2: and there's a lot of great things that come with him.
- 31:37Speaker 2: You've never had that?
- 31:40Speaker 1: Yes, but I wouldn't play with him in that way,
- 31:42Speaker 1: because I'll get annoyed real quick.
- 31:44Speaker 2: Yeah. Now?
- 31:45Speaker 1: Like, I don't want to play.
- 31:46Speaker 2: Oh, me neither. Now that I got my own money....
- 31:51Speaker 1: Oh, got it, bitch. This is before the money.
- 31:53Speaker 2: Yeah, this is broke, young, broke bitch energy. I was
- 32:03Speaker 2: in my 20s. Who got a lot of money in there?
- 32:05Speaker 1: I actually had more money in my 20s, bitch.
- 32:07Speaker 2: I swear to God, yes.
- 32:10Speaker 1: Balling like a bitch in my 20s.
- 32:13Speaker 2: I remember being so broke one time in college. Me
- 32:16Speaker 2: and my homegirl went and got a 4-4-4. And I
- 32:19Speaker 2: think we split that bitch.
- 32:27Speaker 1: Bruh. That's how poor I was, bitch. I'm talking about
- 32:32Speaker 1: some broke bitch shit.
- 32:34Speaker 2: Bitch, I'm calling my mama. Thank God for growth. Thank
- 32:39Speaker 2: God for growth in the name of Jesus.
- 32:42Speaker 1: Okay. So what is.
- 32:45Speaker 2: Single shaming.
- 32:47Speaker 1: It's such a thing.
- 32:48Speaker 2: There's a thing. Like, you ain't got no man. Your
- 32:52Speaker 2: pussy must be trash. Like, that's single shaming, right?
- 32:56Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like.
- 32:57Speaker 2: What's wrong with you? You ain't shit. What's wrong with you?
- 32:59Speaker 1: As if it's something that needs to be fixed because
- 33:01Speaker 1: I say I'm single.
- 33:02Speaker 2: But it's nothing wrong. Is there any truth to it, though?
- 33:06Speaker 1: What needs to be fixed? I feel like while you're
- 33:08Speaker 1: in your single.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Your attitude.
- 33:10Speaker 1: While you're in your singleness, let's be clear, bitch... While
- 33:15Speaker 1: you're in your singleness, everybody can take time for themselves
- 33:19Speaker 1: and identify all their strengths, weaknesses, maybe things that– because
- 33:24Speaker 1: it's not always the man, right?
- 33:25Speaker 2: So there's things that may be about you in your.
- 33:32Speaker 1: Regular relationships and or friendships, right, that people can improve on.
- 33:36Speaker 1: In your singleness, you can kind of highlight those things
- 33:39Speaker 1: and work on them for your next relationship.
- 33:41Speaker 2: I know one thing that I've had to learn to–
- 33:45Speaker 2: adjust to be in a healthy relationship is my mouth.
- 33:50Speaker 2: I know this is we talk back, but sometimes I
- 33:52Speaker 2: can shut the fuck up.
- 33:53Speaker 1: I know when to shut the fuck up. Oftentimes, like,
- 33:55Speaker 1: you know, you could pick your battles.
- 33:58Speaker 2: There was a time I didn't know.
- 34:00Speaker 1: He'd be like, say one more thing and I swear
- 34:02Speaker 1: I'm going to choke the shit out of you.
- 34:04Speaker 2: And I'd be like, one more thing.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Now I know what to cry for. Unhand me. Now
- 34:21Speaker 1: I shut my mouth.
- 34:22Speaker 2: I just be quiet. I won't even address like something
- 34:25Speaker 2: that's just not worth the choke. But I feel like
- 34:27Speaker 2: it just depends on the man you're dealing with.
- 34:29Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? If he's capable of being
- 34:31Speaker 1: normal when you choose not to say some shit, I
- 34:33Speaker 1: feel like sometimes some people, like, they have to say
- 34:37Speaker 1: something to you to evoke this thing out of you. Like,
- 34:40Speaker 1: I feel like something shows up in them, right? So
- 34:44Speaker 1: when you're trying to be different to avoid a situation,
- 34:47Speaker 1: to avoid an argument, something still shows up in them
- 34:50Speaker 1: to evoke this thing out of you to make you
- 34:54Speaker 1: want to jump kick them.
- 34:55Speaker 2: But it's like, poke the bear. Poke the beer. Yes.
- 34:57Speaker 2: Poke the beer. Tammy, poke the beer.
- 35:00Speaker 1: That's exactly what I'm talking about.
- 35:02Speaker 2: Yeah. But here's the thing. Sometimes, no, with your ass. No, bitch,
- 35:06Speaker 2: you be poking the beer. Let's be clear. Sometimes you
- 35:08Speaker 2: be mad, just already mad.
- 35:10Speaker 1: That's not true. That's not true.
- 35:12Speaker 2: Girl, yesterday.
- 35:14Speaker 1: Girl, yesterday, that's not true.
- 35:16Speaker 2: You was.
- 35:16Speaker 1: Girl, yesterday.
- 35:17Speaker 2: I was half asleep and I woke up to an argument.
- 35:19Speaker 2: I was awake.
- 35:20Speaker 1: You didn't wake up to no argument.
- 35:22Speaker 2: Yes, I did.
- 35:23Speaker 1: You text me an argument.
- 35:25Speaker 2: You didn't wake up to an argument. You read that
- 35:27Speaker 2: in argument tone. So we about to.
- 35:29Speaker 1: Do this on the episode. Might as well. Let's go
- 35:31Speaker 1: ahead and do it right quick. Y'all, this ain't even
- 35:37Speaker 1: about singleness no more. Let's do this right quick for
- 35:39Speaker 1: the episode. Imagine this. Let me tell a whole story
- 35:43Speaker 1: right quick. Y'all, we are recording in Charlotte now. Y'all
- 35:46Speaker 1: know I live in.
- 35:47Speaker 2: Charleston, South Carolina.
- 35:48Speaker 1: Carolina, right? Which is three hours from Charlotte. It might
- 35:52Speaker 1: take me exactly three, matter of fact, it takes three
- 35:54Speaker 1: hours and 15 minutes to get to Tammy's doorstep. Tammy
- 35:58Speaker 1: lives five minutes from where we record at, right? So
- 36:01Speaker 1: I don't need to stay at Tammy's house, but it's
- 36:04Speaker 1: convenient for the both of us, right? So we can
- 36:06Speaker 1: get together, do our show, orchestrate our content, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 36:12Speaker 1: I woke up at 4 a.m., right? To get from
- 36:16Speaker 1: Charleston to Charlotte. Even while talking about this right now,
- 36:19Speaker 1: I'm getting fucking anxiety.
- 36:20Speaker 2: Why?
- 36:22Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you.
- 36:23Speaker 2: Go ahead. Right?
- 36:24Speaker 1: Okay. So, I wake up about 4 o'clock in the morning.
- 36:29Speaker 1: I drive to Charlotte. Yes, I told Tammy the day
- 36:32Speaker 1: before that I'd be at 9 o'clock. But in my mind,
- 36:35Speaker 1: I'm not a hairdresser appointment. 8 and 9 is the
- 36:38Speaker 1: same time as far as I'm concerned if I'm just
- 36:40Speaker 1: arriving at a friend's house.
- 36:42Speaker 2: Right?
- 36:42Speaker 1: So, if I decided to come an hour early... Right. Arbitrarily,
- 36:47Speaker 1: if I didn't communicate with you or not, I'm calling, calling, calling, calling, calling.
- 36:51Speaker 1: You didn't answer. That's fine. I did arbitrarily make the
- 36:55Speaker 1: executive decision that I needed to get here sooner, earlier
- 36:59Speaker 1: to make sure I was on time for our guest.
- 37:01Speaker 2: Right.
- 37:02Speaker 1: So whether or not I communicated that to you or not,
- 37:05Speaker 1: that's what I needed to do for us in our business. Right.
- 37:09Speaker 2: OK.
- 37:09Speaker 1: So I did that. I got here. Tammy wasn't answering.
- 37:13Speaker 1: I called my niece. I called a couple other people.
- 37:15Speaker 1: They weren't answering. I immediately went on Expedia to book
- 37:18Speaker 1: a hotel room because I got money, right? I always
- 37:21Speaker 1: got fuck you money. So even if I couldn't get
- 37:24Speaker 1: my people on the phone so I can get to
- 37:26Speaker 1: where I'm going, so I can.
- 37:27Speaker 2: Be here on time, I have other options.
- 37:31Speaker 1: That was it, right? So while I was in Whole
- 37:33Speaker 1: Foods peeing, because I'm sitting in your garage for 30 minutes,
- 37:37Speaker 1: I went to Whole Foods, used the bathroom. One of
- 37:39Speaker 1: my guy friends called me back. Come on over here,
- 37:42Speaker 1: I'll leave the key, blah, blah, blah. I go there,
- 37:43Speaker 1: get dressed, dah, dah, dah, dah. I'm cool. Tammy calls
- 37:47Speaker 1: me while I'm already five minutes from his house at
- 37:50Speaker 1: this point, right? So we talk, we even move past
- 37:53Speaker 1: her not waking up, right? We're now talking about the
- 37:55Speaker 1: show and what we're gonna do for the episode, because
- 37:59Speaker 1: now it's just a couple hours before our guest.
- 38:02Speaker 2: I get out.
- 38:05Speaker 1: The shower at my friend's house and I see a
- 38:07Speaker 1: text message from Tammy that came after we had our
- 38:09Speaker 1: phone conversation. And Tammy knows I don't like passive-aggressive stuff.
- 38:13Speaker 2: It wasn't.
- 38:14Speaker 1: That is, if we've already spoke about it, why are
- 38:17Speaker 1: you texting me after we hang up? We already hung up.
- 38:20Speaker 2: Can I respond?
- 38:21Speaker 1: No, I want to tell the full story.
- 38:22Speaker 2: All right, go ahead.
- 38:23Speaker 1: So I get out the shower, and this is the
- 38:25Speaker 1: text message I have from Tammy. Now, mind you, all
- 38:28Speaker 1: I said to Tammy was, hey, I was outside. I
- 38:31Speaker 1: didn't feel no type of way because now I've already
- 38:33Speaker 1: organized my life. I'm past you not answering the phone
- 38:37Speaker 1: at this point.
- 38:38Speaker 2: Okay.
- 38:38Speaker 1: Right? So I get out the shower... And my text
- 38:41Speaker 1: message from Tammy was, going to Kenneth's house was a
- 38:45Speaker 1: bigger waste of time being that I'm five minutes from
- 38:47Speaker 1: the studio. I'm just singing. you're just saying nothing when
- 38:52Speaker 1: you're literally calling me while I'm five minutes away from
- 38:55Speaker 1: where I'm heading to. The same time it took for
- 38:58Speaker 1: me to drive to his house is the same time
- 39:00Speaker 1: how long it took for you to even call me.
- 39:02Speaker 1: So sending me this text message was really irrelevant because one,
- 39:05Speaker 1: you don't know where Kenneth lives. You don't know how
- 39:08Speaker 1: far he is. Two, I still arrived earlier than you
- 39:11Speaker 1: having to have drive 20 minutes out the way, which
- 39:15Speaker 1: I was fine with because I made the executive decision
- 39:18Speaker 1: for me, for us, for our show, to make sure
- 39:21Speaker 1: I was situated so that I can be here on time. Now,
- 39:24Speaker 1: at this point, it has nothing to do with you.
- 39:26Speaker 1: So sending me this message when you know how.
- 39:28Speaker 2: I am, right? I would love to respond. Go ahead.
- 39:31Speaker 1: Yeah, you will in a minute.
- 39:32Speaker 2: Because you've been talking a long time.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Sending me this message. You wanted to evoke something in me.
- 39:38Speaker 1: Go ahead.
- 39:39Speaker 2: So you guys, I'm literally half asleep. I went to
- 39:44Speaker 2: bed a little later. I knew she was coming at 9.
- 39:47Speaker 2: So I said, I'm going to set my alarm for 8.30.
- 39:49Speaker 2: Set my alarm for 8.30. I had a bunch of
- 39:52Speaker 2: missed calls from her. She said, I'm going to Kenneth's house.
- 39:54Speaker 2: We talked on the phone. The conversation was amicable. We
- 39:57Speaker 2: didn't argue. Right. You wasn't upset.
- 40:00Speaker 1: Right.
- 40:00Speaker 2: So when I sent that message, I was just saying,
- 40:02Speaker 2: maybe you should just come here since it's so close.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Come here from where, though? Listen, no, I didn't interrupt you.
- 40:07Speaker 2: Allow me. Do you understand what's happening? Don't interrupt me.
- 40:10Speaker 2: Don't interrupt me.
- 40:10Speaker 1: Just make sure you follow.
- 40:11Speaker 2: Hold on. No, no, no. I just want to make
- 40:13Speaker 2: sure Jordan follows.
- 40:14Speaker 1: He's listening. Okay, all right.
- 40:15Speaker 2: Don't interrupt. So I sent the message like, I don't know,
- 40:18Speaker 2: like she says, I don't know how far Kenneth's house is.
- 40:21Speaker 2: I know how close my house is to the studio.
- 40:24Speaker 2: So I sent that message like, don't waste any more
- 40:26Speaker 2: time going over there. Just come back to here because
- 40:28Speaker 2: I'm so close. I'm just saying. It wasn't nasty. It
- 40:32Speaker 2: didn't have any, I wasn't trying to evoke anything. I
- 40:35Speaker 2: was just trying to make both of our lives easier.
- 40:37Speaker 2: I thought it would be beneficial for us to be
- 40:39Speaker 2: in the same space because we had a guest coming.
- 40:42Speaker 2: That was it. For her to feel like I was
- 40:45Speaker 2: attacking her or saying anything mean or gaslighting was something
- 40:50Speaker 2: just inside her. That's how I felt. We were cool
- 40:54Speaker 2: on the phone. Why would I come at you negative
- 40:57Speaker 2: all of a sudden? What does it do for me
- 40:59Speaker 2: to come at you right now? I live five minutes
- 41:01Speaker 2: from the studio. I'm going to get there before the
- 41:04Speaker 2: show is fine. I don't have to get your, I
- 41:06Speaker 2: can get dressed here. Everything is cool. What is the
- 41:08Speaker 2: point in gaslighting you? I just sent you that message saying, Hey,
- 41:12Speaker 2: you don't have to go there. My house is open
- 41:14Speaker 2: to you and it's close. I'm just saying, but you
- 41:17Speaker 2: took it such a different way than I was sending it.
- 41:19Speaker 2: And I don't know why you always perceive me as
- 41:22Speaker 2: trying to come for you. It wasn't that for what?
- 41:25Speaker 1: Okay. Do y'all understand? Do you understand Jordan? Cause this we're,
- 41:29Speaker 1: we're recording this, but our videographer is here, right? Imagine
- 41:33Speaker 1: you're already where you're headed to and get this message.
- 41:37Speaker 1: What's the point of even sending that message if I'm
- 41:40Speaker 1: already situated?
- 41:41Speaker 2: I don't know that you're situated.
- 41:42Speaker 1: You did because when I got off the phone with
- 41:45Speaker 1: you because.
- 41:45Speaker 2: I missed my exit talking to you.
- 41:47Speaker 1: You said you missed your exit. And I was five
- 41:49Speaker 1: minutes from his house.
- 41:50Speaker 2: I didn't know that.
- 41:52Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. You don't know nothing. So why'd
- 41:54Speaker 1: you send me that message? I was just saying, I'm
- 41:56Speaker 1: five minutes from the studio.
- 41:57Speaker 2: Just come here.
- 41:57Speaker 1: You're telling me I'm wasting time doing something when I
- 42:00Speaker 1: wasted my time waking up early. I wasted my time
- 42:03Speaker 1: sitting in your garage for 30 minutes. But that wasn't
- 42:05Speaker 1: my fault, though. That was more of a waste of
- 42:07Speaker 1: time than me just going on to the next place.
- 42:10Speaker 2: But whose fault was that?
- 42:11Speaker 1: It was no one's fault. So what's the purpose of
- 42:13Speaker 1: the message?
- 42:13Speaker 2: So why are you so angry?
- 42:14Speaker 1: But what's the... If our message was amicable, come here
- 42:19Speaker 1: from where, Tammy?
- 42:20Speaker 2: Wherever you are right now.
- 42:21Speaker 1: How does that make sense when I already still gotta
- 42:23Speaker 1: get dressed? And I'm already getting out the show. Because
- 42:25Speaker 1: I'm five minutes from the studio. I was just trying
- 42:27Speaker 1: to help.
- 42:27Speaker 2: What is happening?
- 42:28Speaker 1: Do you understand that? Imagine.
- 42:31Speaker 2: Jerry, what do you think, honestly?
- 42:33Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, tell us.
- 42:36Speaker 2: I'm with the interpretation of a text message. It can,
- 42:38Speaker 2: because communication goes out one way and we interpret it thousands.
- 42:42Speaker 1: And I do get it.
- 42:43Speaker 2: But We can't say that her intent was to... Perception. Perception. Mm-hmm.
- 42:49Speaker 1: How you perceive things. Mm-hmm.
- 42:52Speaker 2: Both of y'all are right, but, I mean, it is.
- 42:54Speaker 1: Yeah, both didn't know what she didn't know.
- 42:56Speaker 2: Right. Absolutely. So then when she calls me, she calls
- 42:59Speaker 2: me yelling and screaming.
- 43:00Speaker 1: No, I didn't call you initially yelling and screaming.
- 43:03Speaker 2: When I called you, you were.
- 43:04Speaker 1: You sent me a nasty message back. Okay, let me
- 43:06Speaker 1: tell y'all.
- 43:06Speaker 2: Let me read y'all.
- 43:07Speaker 1: I'm going to read this full stuff right quick. We
- 43:09Speaker 1: can go ahead and use the rest of the episode
- 43:10Speaker 1: for this shit.
- 43:11Speaker 2: All right. I.
- 43:13Speaker 1: Tammy texts me, going to Kenneth's house was a bigger
- 43:16Speaker 1: waste of time being that I'm five minutes from the studio.
- 43:18Speaker 2: I'm just saying.
- 43:20Speaker 1: To me in my mind, you're just saying that to
- 43:22Speaker 1: say nothing because I'm already situated.
- 43:24Speaker 2: I'm getting dressed.
- 43:25Speaker 1: I'm going to be on time. Don't worry about me
- 43:27Speaker 1: at this point. I'm good, right? And you already said
- 43:31Speaker 1: our conversation on the phone was amicable. Nobody was, why
- 43:35Speaker 1: did you have to send this message? So my response
- 43:37Speaker 1: to Tammy was, Tammy, leave it alone. Arriving earlier was
- 43:41Speaker 1: a waste of time. You do realize I was already
- 43:44Speaker 1: headed there because I couldn't reach you. I could have
- 43:47Speaker 1: gotten an extra 45 minutes of sleep myself.
- 43:50Speaker 2: That's the truth.
- 43:51Speaker 1: Right. And the next thing I said was, I have
- 43:53Speaker 1: made preparations for you. I said I would have made
- 43:56Speaker 1: preparations for you if it were the other way around.
- 43:59Speaker 1: Let's be clear. And let me clarify what that is.
- 44:02Speaker 2: Right.
- 44:03Speaker 1: If I that's not nasty. See, that's your perception of my.
- 44:05Speaker 2: Let's be clear.
- 44:07Speaker 1: Let's be clear. It's not.
- 44:08Speaker 2: How did I not make preparations?
- 44:09Speaker 1: Here's the thing. If I live, Tammy lives in a
- 44:11Speaker 1: high rise in Charlotte. Right. So they have a concierge,
- 44:14Speaker 1: all that stuff. There's different there's things you have to
- 44:16Speaker 1: do to get into the building. If the shoe were
- 44:18Speaker 1: on the other foot and she was coming to my house,
- 44:20Speaker 1: no matter what time Tammy got there, she'd have access.
- 44:23Speaker 1: That's just the truth. It doesn't matter if I told
- 44:25Speaker 1: you 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, if y'all know military time.
- 44:30Speaker 1: It wouldn't matter. You'd have access to get into the place.
- 44:33Speaker 1: I would not have to get up because I would
- 44:35Speaker 1: have made preparations. That's just how I am, right? I
- 44:39Speaker 1: would have not had to make sure my phone is
- 44:42Speaker 1: by my air because Tammy calls me at 8.30 a.m.,
- 44:46Speaker 1: I called your phone 10 times. Concierge called you twice.
- 44:48Speaker 2: You told me you were coming at 9, so I
- 44:50Speaker 2: made preparations to be up before you came.
- 44:53Speaker 1: But you wake up at 8. Is your phone on
- 44:55Speaker 1: silent until 8.30?
- 44:56Speaker 2: Do not disturb. And I set my alarm for 8.30
- 45:00Speaker 2: because I knew you were coming at 9.00. So I
- 45:02Speaker 2: would be up before you got there.
- 45:04Speaker 1: Okay, and that's fine. I wasn't tripping. I went on
- 45:07Speaker 1: with my life. But you said like I didn't make
- 45:09Speaker 1: preparation for you. You sent me this text message, did
- 45:11Speaker 1: send me over the edge when I'm waking up.
- 45:13Speaker 2: But why though?
- 45:13Speaker 1: Because I had been up from 4 o'clock in the morning.
- 45:16Speaker 2: But you act like I did that to you.
- 45:17Speaker 1: You chilling.
- 45:17Speaker 2: I didn't do nothing to you though.
- 45:19Speaker 1: Tammy, it's for us though. I'm coming here because it's
- 45:22Speaker 1: convenient for us. Do you understand that? I understand that.
- 45:26Speaker 1: But what did I do to you, though? What you
- 45:30Speaker 1: did was send me that text message, which you could
- 45:32Speaker 1: have saved it, right? Because you're not having to do
- 45:34Speaker 1: nothing extra for this show. I got up, I got
- 45:38Speaker 1: here for us to record.
- 45:39Speaker 2: You're treating me like that's my fault, like I did
- 45:41Speaker 2: something wrong. That is not true.
- 45:43Speaker 1: That's absolutely not true. What you did wrong was told
- 45:46Speaker 1: me what I could have done differently when all I
- 45:48Speaker 1: did was wake up an hour earlier and got here
- 45:51Speaker 1: an hour.
- 45:51Speaker 2: All I did.
- 45:53Speaker 1: was got hair earlier.
- 45:54Speaker 2: That's all I did. And all I did was sleep
- 45:56Speaker 2: until the time we agreed to. And that's fine.
- 45:58Speaker 1: I'm not tripping. I'm not.
- 46:00Speaker 2: But.
- 46:00Speaker 1: Clearly you were upset about it because why did that
- 46:02Speaker 1: message set you off so much? Because why are you
- 46:05Speaker 1: telling me what I could have done differently?
- 46:07Speaker 2: Right?
- 46:07Speaker 1: Because you could have also done something differently too. Made
- 46:10Speaker 1: sure your friend was able... our business parts friend and
- 46:14Speaker 1: or business partner right tried to do that had access
- 46:17Speaker 1: to do whatever they need to do because it is
- 46:18Speaker 1: convenient for us to do things together at the same.
- 46:20Speaker 2: Time and i tried to and i tried to do
- 46:23Speaker 2: that for you by getting up 30 minutes.
- 46:25Speaker 1: Earlier okay call me so that there is no miscommunication
- 46:30Speaker 1: we both have Each other's thing.
- 46:33Speaker 2: Okay, that's fair. And I'm going to ask that you
- 46:35Speaker 2: not hang up in my face anymore. Don't do it anymore.
- 46:39Speaker 2: It's rude. It's disrespectful.
- 46:41Speaker 1: Girl, you have hung up.
- 46:42Speaker 2: When?
- 46:42Speaker 1: Several times.
- 46:43Speaker 2: When?
- 46:44Speaker 1: Let me tell y'all, in business, listen, it's just different.
- 46:48Speaker 1: You could be friends with people, but when you get
- 46:49Speaker 1: into business with people, it's different.
- 46:52Speaker 2: Can you agree not to hang up in my face?
- 46:55Speaker 2: and I won't hang up in yours.
- 46:56Speaker 1: I will not. No, I'm not going to agree to that.
- 46:58Speaker 2: Why?
- 46:59Speaker 1: Because I'm not going to sit on the phone.
- 47:00Speaker 2: See, that's the problem. I'm not going to sit on
- 47:01Speaker 2: the phone and continue.
- 47:02Speaker 1: To go into a circle.
- 47:03Speaker 2: I'm a nigga, and this is my baby mama, y'all.
- 47:05Speaker 2: That's not true.
- 47:06Speaker 1: Yes, you're a nigga.
- 47:06Speaker 2: You're right.
- 47:07Speaker 1: You're a nigga. Because why wouldn't you agree to not
- 47:09Speaker 1: doing it to each other? No, because what I do,
- 47:11Speaker 1: I believe that in arguments... People have to step back.
- 47:15Speaker 1: So we're not in a building together. We're on the phone, right?
- 47:18Speaker 1: If I see that I'm not going to get a
- 47:20Speaker 1: solid solution out of this conversation, I'm going to hang
- 47:24Speaker 1: up and step back. I'm not going to sit on
- 47:26Speaker 1: the phone and keep going in a circle when we
- 47:28Speaker 1: have limited time at this point to get dressed.
- 47:29Speaker 2: You can say, hey, I don't feel like this conversation
- 47:31Speaker 2: is going anywhere. Girl, I said, girl, I'm going. And
- 47:33Speaker 2: I'm going to hang up.
- 47:34Speaker 1: Once I say I'm going, I'm hanging up.
- 47:36Speaker 2: You just hung up in my face.
- 47:37Speaker 1: I said, girl, I got stuff to do. Have a
- 47:39Speaker 1: good day. Hung up.
- 47:40Speaker 2: That's rude. If you don't see a problem with that.
- 47:42Speaker 2: I will do it again. Y'all hear me?
- 47:44Speaker 1: I'll do it again.
- 47:45Speaker 2: It's going to be a problem the next time.
- 47:46Speaker 1: I'll do it to a boyfriend.
- 47:47Speaker 2: It's going to be a problem the next time. Because
- 47:49Speaker 2: I'm not the only.
- 47:49Speaker 1: Person who gets hung up on. Okay, but it's different.
- 47:52Speaker 2: What's going to happen? We'll see. You don't want to
- 47:54Speaker 2: fight me because I hung up on you? Let's do it, bitch.
- 47:56Speaker 2: We'll see what happens. If we don't.
- 47:59Speaker 1: Have respect for each other.
- 48:01Speaker 2: I don't feel like it's disrespectful. I do, though.
- 48:04Speaker 1: I don't think it's disrespectful because you've hung.
- 48:06Speaker 2: Up on me. I do. And I agree to that.
- 48:08Speaker 1: I don't remember doing that, but if I've done it,
- 48:10Speaker 1: I'll say I won't do it anymore because I don't
- 48:12Speaker 1: like it done to me. Well, I don't mind if I,
- 48:15Speaker 1: if I don't mind somebody having to get a moment,
- 48:19Speaker 1: I don't mind that. Okay. Well, you're you and I'm me.
- 48:21Speaker 1: You have a issue with texts. You want me to
- 48:24Speaker 1: call you? I said, I'll agree to do that.
- 48:26Speaker 2: And I'm asking you to please not hang up in
- 48:28Speaker 2: my face because I don't like it. So go.
- 48:30Speaker 1: Okay. Okay. Let me be an adult right quick.
- 48:33Speaker 2: Y'all.
- 48:34Speaker 1: Going forward, once I'm done talking, I will sit on
- 48:38Speaker 1: the phone in silence until Tammy is ready to hang
- 48:41Speaker 1: up on me. That's what we'll do going forward.
- 48:44Speaker 2: I won't be hanging up on you. So then we're
- 48:47Speaker 2: going to be getting dressed, glued to the phone for
- 48:49Speaker 2: the rest of the time. You see what the behavior is?
- 48:53Speaker 1: That's not a behavior. That is just the reality of
- 48:56Speaker 1: what will then happen if we don't get off the phone.
- 48:58Speaker 2: I said I won't hang up on you.
- 49:00Speaker 1: Right, so we'll just be on the phone then.
- 49:04Speaker 2: You see what I'm saying? No.
- 49:05Speaker 1: If I'm not going to hang up and you're not
- 49:07Speaker 1: going to hang up, so we got to agree to
- 49:09Speaker 1: hang up.
- 49:09Speaker 2: We can agree that the conversation is either not going
- 49:11Speaker 2: anywhere or it's over. But hanging up in each other's
- 49:15Speaker 2: face is not okay.
- 49:16Speaker 1: So how do we do it?
- 49:17Speaker 2: You can say, hey, I feel like this conversation is
- 49:19Speaker 2: not going anywhere.
- 49:20Speaker 1: Right now.
- 49:20Speaker 2: Let's reconvene another time. Bye. And we can hang up.
- 49:24Speaker 2: And I say bye, you say bye, we hang up.
- 49:26Speaker 2: But just hanging up.
- 49:27Speaker 1: So let me make sure we get both two byes, right?
- 49:31Speaker 1: Two byes.
- 49:33Speaker 2: And hang up. Yes. All right. And that's going to
- 49:35Speaker 2: make the situation better.
- 49:38Speaker 1: Yes. How so? Because the actual issue hasn't been, no resolution.
- 49:43Speaker 2: Maybe then that's fine because we're coming back to it
- 49:45Speaker 2: at a later time. But nobody feels disrespected in the
- 49:48Speaker 2: end of the conversation. Okay.
- 49:51Speaker 1: I don't feel disrespected when somebody hangs up. Tammy feels
- 49:54Speaker 1: disrespected if I hang up on her. I feel disrespected
- 49:57Speaker 1: when somebody is insulting my intelligence. That's when I feel disrespected.
- 50:01Speaker 1: So I get off the phones. You know what I'm saying?
- 50:04Speaker 1: If we're going back and forth about the same thing,
- 50:07Speaker 1: you're not getting me, I'm not getting you. Our brains
- 50:11Speaker 1: obviously work different. We have different perceptions in the way
- 50:14Speaker 1: we perceive what's happening in many situations, right? And I
- 50:19Speaker 1: feel like it's just not, to me, it gives me
- 50:21Speaker 1: a lot of mental anguish to sit and keep going
- 50:24Speaker 1: in a constant circle with somebody where I feel like
- 50:27Speaker 1: this is what singleness is, you know? At this point
- 50:30Speaker 1: in my life, I don't feel like I'm finding anybody
- 50:33Speaker 1: who is on the same mental thing with me.
- 50:38Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 50:39Speaker 1: Because you got to kind of think like the person
- 50:40Speaker 1: you fucking with.
- 50:42Speaker 2: You're not going to find somebody.
- 50:43Speaker 1: That thinks exactly like you. Why would you want anybody
- 50:45Speaker 1: that thinks exactly like you? Because even in my friend selection, right?
- 50:49Speaker 1: I know that in my friend selection, most of the time,
- 50:50Speaker 1: it's something about them that I see me. That's what
- 50:53Speaker 1: I was talking about, right? So you see yourself in
- 50:55Speaker 1: the people that you deal with, right? But in order
- 50:58Speaker 1: to keep down... keep down confusion, you and whoever you
- 51:02Speaker 1: deal with, y'all have to have similarities, right? But if
- 51:05Speaker 1: you're in a situation with somebody where y'all think completely
- 51:08Speaker 1: different because you may not see, you don't perceive that
- 51:10Speaker 1: text message you sent me the same way I do, right?
- 51:13Speaker 1: 20 other people could perceive it in the way I do.
- 51:16Speaker 1: 20 other people can perceive it in the way you do.
- 51:19Speaker 1: We clearly have miscommunication issues, right? It's a problem at
- 51:24Speaker 1: this point for me because if I'm just going on
- 51:27Speaker 1: and living my life, all I did was wake up
- 51:29Speaker 1: an hour early.
- 51:30Speaker 2: I didn't deserve the text message. Do you ever consider
- 51:33Speaker 2: that it might have been valuable to tell me that
- 51:35Speaker 2: before you went to sleep? You didn't have to call
- 51:37Speaker 2: me back even though we agreed to talk that night.
- 51:40Speaker 2: it would have been valuable to say, hey, I'm going
- 51:42Speaker 2: to go to bed now and I'm going to come earlier.
- 51:44Speaker 2: So that way I would have set my alarm.
- 51:46Speaker 1: For 7.30 instead of 8.30. But did I not come prepared, though?
- 51:50Speaker 1: Because we talked on the phone when I got here.
- 51:53Speaker 1: I told you what I thought about in the meantime, right?
- 51:56Speaker 1: It's just, this is why I'm just really, y'all, I'm
- 52:01Speaker 1: tired of dealing with humans. It's just so many intricate things.
- 52:04Speaker 2: Little things.
- 52:06Speaker 1: Everybody has a different way of thinking, eating, smoking, drinking,
- 52:09Speaker 1: whatever the fuck you do. Like everybody has a different
- 52:11Speaker 1: way of doing things. And it's fucking tiring.
- 52:16Speaker 2: I feel like if I were you.
- 52:19Speaker 1: Right, and you're already here in Charlotte, right, and I'm
- 52:22Speaker 1: in Charleston, right, if I were you, I would just understand.
- 52:27Speaker 1: That's just because that's just who I am, right?
- 52:30Speaker 2: I would just.
- 52:30Speaker 1: Understand that Tammy need to go to sleep. Because she
- 52:33Speaker 1: need to get here in the morning. That's what I
- 52:35Speaker 1: would understand.
- 52:35Speaker 2: I did understand that.
- 52:37Speaker 1: I feel like I don't get the type of grace
- 52:39Speaker 1: that I extend to other people. I don't ever.
- 52:42Speaker 2: Nothing was wrong with you going to sleep, but you
- 52:44Speaker 2: could have communicated with me. That's all. It would hurt
- 52:48Speaker 2: nothing to send me a text saying, hey, I'm going
- 52:50Speaker 2: to bed. I'm going to come early.
- 52:53Speaker 1: Right. It wouldn't have hurt, right? But if you didn't
- 52:56Speaker 1: do that, say, for instance, you were the one having
- 52:58Speaker 1: to travel. If you didn't do that and you went
- 52:59Speaker 1: ahead and went to sleep, I'd understand. I didn't understand.
- 53:03Speaker 1: It wouldn't even be a conversation of anything to bring
- 53:05Speaker 1: up to tell me what I could have done, to
- 53:08Speaker 1: tell you what you could have done differently. I would
- 53:10Speaker 1: have just understood.
- 53:11Speaker 2: What I was just saying is, come over here because
- 53:13Speaker 2: it would be convenient.
- 53:14Speaker 1: You don't know that, though. So you sending me that
- 53:17Speaker 1: was just extra icing on top of this nasty cake.
- 53:20Speaker 2: I didn't know it was a nasty cake.
- 53:22Speaker 1: Tammy, if you have to wake up at 4 o'clock
- 53:24Speaker 1: in the morning and drive somewhere and then now you
- 53:27Speaker 1: have no place to be... I know you. You'd feel
- 53:30Speaker 1: some type of way.
- 53:31Speaker 2: I wouldn't.
- 53:32Speaker 1: And I just solved my problem, right?
- 53:35Speaker 2: First of all, I wouldn't feel like I had no
- 53:36Speaker 2: place to be because I would know your house was
- 53:38Speaker 2: my place to be. Then I also know.
- 53:40Speaker 1: That- At that moment, I had no place to be
- 53:43Speaker 1: sitting in my car.
- 53:43Speaker 2: Okay, but I also know that I told you a
- 53:46Speaker 2: certain time, and now it is before that time, and
- 53:49Speaker 2: she's probably asleep. So I'll just go grab some breakfast
- 53:53Speaker 2: or I'll wait.
- 53:54Speaker 1: I went to Whole Foods. That's what I'm saying.
- 53:57Speaker 2: I moved on. Okay, but all of that is understood
- 54:00Speaker 2: between both of us. I didn't know it was a
- 54:01Speaker 2: nasty cake.
- 54:02Speaker 1: Okay, the nasty cake comes after the text message.
- 54:06Speaker 2: But I still didn't know it was a nasty cake.
- 54:08Speaker 1: Why are you texting me anything extra if we're past
- 54:11Speaker 1: it at this point?
- 54:12Speaker 2: Past what?
- 54:13Speaker 1: We're past me needing to get into your house. We're
- 54:17Speaker 1: past that.
- 54:18Speaker 2: But I didn't know that you, the last thing you
- 54:20Speaker 2: said was you were missing your exit. I was just
- 54:23Speaker 2: trying to be helpful.
- 54:24Speaker 1: So now even that, even if I'm on a highway driving, right,
- 54:27Speaker 1: and I'm missing my exit, how annoyed are you when
- 54:29Speaker 1: you miss your exit?
- 54:31Speaker 2: All right, and you get this message. Misplaced anger.
- 54:34Speaker 1: How is that misplaced? I'm missing my exit answering the
- 54:37Speaker 1: phone for you, right? And then I get a message
- 54:39Speaker 1: about how I could have done something different because I'm
- 54:41Speaker 1: missing my exit now.
- 54:42Speaker 2: Fucking with you.
- 54:44Speaker 1: Like, do you understand what I'm saying?
- 54:46Speaker 2: Do you hear this?
- 54:48Speaker 1: Do you hear this?
- 54:51Speaker 2: I can't win from losing. Let me tell y'all nothing
- 54:53Speaker 2: I don't like about black men. Okay?
- 54:56Speaker 1: These niggas be acting like they.
- 54:57Speaker 2: Don't understand the shit women be going through.
- 55:00Speaker 1: Like, y'all be knowing, but y'all choose to.
- 55:03Speaker 2: I ain't going to get into it. That's woman stuff.
- 55:06Speaker 2: Shut up. I be feeling like I can't win, Jordan.
- 55:11Speaker 1: That's woman stuff. I sleep the wrong amount of time. Girl,
- 55:17Speaker 1: I don't care about you sleeping. We ain't filming until 12.
- 55:20Speaker 2: I got braids. I ain't got shit to do.
- 55:22Speaker 1: Because your business partner is coming from out of town.
- 55:24Speaker 1: So I'll be up 30 minutes before she's supposed to
- 55:27Speaker 1: be here.
- 55:27Speaker 2: That should be ample enough time.
- 55:29Speaker 1: And that's absolutely fine that you weren't, that I got
- 55:31Speaker 1: here extra time, right? And I know I got here earlier, right?
- 55:34Speaker 2: One hour earlier, right?
- 55:36Speaker 1: Well, technically 30 minutes based off your alarm.
- 55:38Speaker 2: 30 minutes earlier. No, you got here before that because
- 55:41Speaker 2: I got up 30 minutes earlier.
- 55:43Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Based on your alarm, you called
- 55:45Speaker 1: me at 8.30 on the dot. You called me. I
- 55:48Speaker 1: was already five.
- 55:49Speaker 2: Minutes from where I needed to be at at this point.
- 55:51Speaker 2: I didn't know that. Exactly.
- 55:53Speaker 1: So why are you sending me this follow-up message?
- 55:55Speaker 2: Because I wanted to make sure that you were good.
- 55:58Speaker 1: You'd call me and say, Ashley, you good?
- 56:01Speaker 2: Simple as that.
- 56:02Speaker 1: No, simple as that.
- 56:03Speaker 2: I just want to make sure you're good. I'm close
- 56:04Speaker 2: to the studio.
- 56:04Speaker 1: Or really, all I needed to hear from Tammy was, girl,
- 56:07Speaker 1: my bad. I was sleeping. I didn't know you was
- 56:08Speaker 1: coming this time.
- 56:09Speaker 2: Period. Period.
- 56:10Speaker 1: That's it.
- 56:11Speaker 2: But it's not my bad.
- 56:12Speaker 1: Anything extra is not my bad. Listen, even if you
- 56:15Speaker 1: feel like it's not your bad, Tammy, I feel like
- 56:17Speaker 1: if none of my friends were to come, even if
- 56:19Speaker 1: we're not friends, I feel like if one of my
- 56:22Speaker 1: people come to my house or if I didn't show
- 56:24Speaker 1: up in a way that I needed to or they
- 56:26Speaker 1: felt like I needed to, it is my bad. Every time.
- 56:29Speaker 2: So I didn't show up in a way you needed to? Oh, God.
- 56:32Speaker 1: I got to be real careful with the words I use. Yeah,
- 56:34Speaker 1: because I'm trying to understand.
- 56:36Speaker 2: No. I don't want to say show up like, I'm
- 56:38Speaker 2: not saying show up like I need you to. I
- 56:41Speaker 2: never need you. You know what I'm saying?
- 56:42Speaker 1: I don't need a lot of people. I handle my life.
- 56:45Speaker 1: You see what I'm saying? So don't ever think it's
- 56:48Speaker 1: like you didn't show up for me in any way.
- 56:51Speaker 1: That's not what I mean. What I'm saying is if
- 56:55Speaker 1: we had something planned, plans change in a little piece
- 56:58Speaker 1: of little time.
- 56:59Speaker 2: Plans did not change.
- 57:00Speaker 1: Piece of time, one hour, piece of time. Okay, we
- 57:02Speaker 1: going in circles, y'all.
- 57:04Speaker 2: But y'all get the gist of it. Let us know.
- 57:05Speaker 1: This is the type of shit that happen in friendships, business, whatever.
- 57:09Speaker 2: Tell me what I did wrong, okay? Please, I would
- 57:11Speaker 2: appreciate it because I don't want to do it again.
- 57:16Speaker 1: Keep the extra commentary. That's what you do. Don't do
- 57:18Speaker 1: that again.
- 57:19Speaker 2: That's it.
- 57:20Speaker 1: Just keep the extra thing. We already passed it.
- 57:21Speaker 2: It wasn't extra.
- 57:22Speaker 1: Move on, girl, what you wearing? So we can coordinate.
- 57:24Speaker 1: And then I said, we kind of flowy today. Like, yeah,
- 57:28Speaker 1: usually you have on a low two-piece number, and I
- 57:31Speaker 1: might have on a tracksuit. Like, that's just. Yes. So
- 57:34Speaker 1: now here we are. Y'all.
- 57:38Speaker 2: I can't with this woman. I can't with this woman, y'all.
- 57:42Speaker 2: Lord have mercy. I need some.
- 57:44Speaker 1: This is why I need some dick in my life
- 57:46Speaker 1: right here. Ain't you got a rose?
- 57:49Speaker 2: Tap into the rose. Anyway, we're going to follow up
- 57:53Speaker 2: on this thing.
- 57:53Speaker 1: Bitch, I got a whole lot of notes. That was
- 57:56Speaker 1: the episode, bitch. That was the episode. Say thank you.
- 58:01Speaker 2: God bless you. Good night.
- 58:03Speaker 1: I'm going to post the text messages. That's the next
- 58:05Speaker 1: part of it. So then y'all can read them too
