Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King.
- 0:07Speaker 1: I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
- 0:10Speaker 1: favorite shows from the Real Housewives in Atlanta, New Jersey
- 0:13Speaker 1: and my own creation, The Love and Marriage Franchise and
- 0:17Speaker 1: Bell Collective. Every episode we recap reality television from the
- 0:23Speaker 1: Real Housewives Franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset, in
- 0:27Speaker 1: addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or
- 0:31Speaker 1: scripted as well.
- 0:36Speaker 2: Let's get into our first show of the day.
- 0:38Speaker 1: We have to get into the Bell Collective Birmingham Reunion. Okay,
- 0:46Speaker 1: this reunion has so many things going on. The first
- 0:50Speaker 1: thing I would like to get into shout out to
- 0:53Speaker 1: all the Bells. Okay, thank you guys for a great reunion.
- 0:56Speaker 1: I love you guys, and.
- 0:58Speaker 2: Hopefully I'll see y'all soon.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Okay, Now with that being said, I want to get
- 1:03Speaker 1: into your thoughts dustin which part would you like to
- 1:09Speaker 1: talk about first as relates to the reunion.
- 1:12Speaker 3: I want to talk about the showmanship of the bells,
- 1:16Speaker 3: right and who came to play?
- 1:17Speaker 4: Because Tiffany came to get down. You know what I'm saying.
- 1:20Speaker 3: Tiffany must have sneezed on that prayer cloth and forgot
- 1:23Speaker 3: it on filming day, because when I tell you, she.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Didn't give a damn. She was cussing. It was light cussing,
- 1:28Speaker 4: you know, lower case, but cussing nonetheless.
- 1:31Speaker 3: And she was doing that. She was making her points.
- 1:33Speaker 3: She ain't scared of Stormy, and Stormy ain't scared of
- 1:36Speaker 3: her ass either, So that made for a great back
- 1:38Speaker 3: and forth. I thought that Amber was the most protective
- 1:47Speaker 3: of herself on the reunion stage. I felt like everybody
- 1:50Speaker 3: else kind of was a little bit more comfortable, and
- 1:53Speaker 3: that's something that comes with time. And I actually appreciate
- 1:55Speaker 3: her honesty in being a little bit more reserved on
- 1:58Speaker 3: the stage. Don't be fake, just be honest to your
- 2:01Speaker 3: emotions at the time. So I thought that was great.
- 2:04Speaker 3: But Tiffany and Stormy and Fumi was fo me. I
- 2:07Speaker 3: don't want fool me to argue with nobody. I just
- 2:09Speaker 3: want fool me to smile and talk shit and spend
- 2:12Speaker 3: money and make her content and just yell at them
- 2:16Speaker 3: children and get a house. And I just I love FOOMI.
- 2:19Speaker 3: I don't want her in no mess. You don't need
- 2:21Speaker 3: to argue with nobody. I felt like Kayla showed up.
- 2:24Speaker 3: She looked beautiful. You know what I'm saying. She was
- 2:27Speaker 3: more vocal on the reunion stage. I was very proud
- 2:29Speaker 3: of these ladies for their first season reunion because typically
- 2:33Speaker 3: it's the Pits first season. But these ladies seemed very
- 2:37Speaker 3: well acclimated to the environment.
- 2:39Speaker 4: I was happy.
- 2:40Speaker 1: So let's get into that, Okay, so Blue. One of
- 2:44Speaker 1: the things that happened in this reunion was we were
- 2:47Speaker 1: able to hear from Fumi in regards to whether or
- 2:54Speaker 1: not she knows the mortgage payments for the house she
- 2:59Speaker 1: lives in.
- 2:59Speaker 2: She said no.
- 3:01Speaker 1: I asked her if she's aware of the finances and
- 3:06Speaker 1: all this other stuff. She said, look, my man takes
- 3:09Speaker 1: care of that, and that's just our dynamic. She pretty
- 3:13Speaker 1: much doubled down on it. Flip the rubber down. What
- 3:16Speaker 1: did you think about that? In terms of Bumian's like,
- 3:20Speaker 1: I live a soft life, and I am unabashedly okay
- 3:25Speaker 1: with that.
- 3:26Speaker 5: I think Fumi, to Dustin's point, is like the Lucille
- 3:29Speaker 5: Ball of the show. She's like the comedic relief living
- 3:33Speaker 5: the soft life, the kept woman who he gets be
- 3:36Speaker 5: an allowance and I spend it within a week and
- 3:38Speaker 5: we go shopping, and I have no idea how much
- 3:39Speaker 5: our mortgage is and this house is only two point
- 3:42Speaker 5: six million, I do think. And she mentions her immigrant
- 3:45Speaker 5: story a lot, I think from someone who comes from
- 3:47Speaker 5: where she comes from. When I've heard from a Nigerian friends,
- 3:50Speaker 5: Nigeria is like India, where there's no middle class.
- 3:53Speaker 6: You're either poor or you're rich, right, And.
- 3:56Speaker 5: So because of that, I think she's tickled that she
- 3:59Speaker 5: ended up on this side of the coin, and she
- 4:01Speaker 5: has no apologies for it. She thinks that she already
- 4:04Speaker 5: prepaid for her licks in childhood struggle and now she's
- 4:07Speaker 5: ready to live a soft life into her last breath
- 4:09Speaker 5: for her man.
- 4:10Speaker 2: And I don't hate it. I don't hate it.
- 4:13Speaker 5: My thing is And this is why I liked about
- 4:15Speaker 5: Stormy's response when you asked them.
- 4:17Speaker 6: That was brilliant, a little MESSI were brilliant when.
- 4:19Speaker 5: You said, when you asked the most high achieving woman
- 4:21Speaker 5: on the couch, how do you feel about the damsel?
- 4:25Speaker 2: She says, she like it. I love it right, like
- 4:26Speaker 2: if it.
- 4:27Speaker 6: Works for it doesn't work for me.
- 4:28Speaker 5: I said, now, Carlos, I know exactly what you're doing,
- 4:31Speaker 5: but I love that.
- 4:33Speaker 6: A woman like stormy and a woman like foolmy can
- 4:35Speaker 6: be on.
- 4:36Speaker 5: That couch together because it shows what option looks like, right, Like,
- 4:39Speaker 5: there's no one way to be a woman who loves yourself.
- 4:43Speaker 5: Being a housewife who is psychologically safe and financially safe
- 4:46Speaker 5: for the good man, to me is just as dope
- 4:49Speaker 5: as being a boss ass bitch who's building an empire
- 4:51Speaker 5: with her work.
- 4:53Speaker 6: So I actually like having both of them on the
- 4:55Speaker 6: on the cast. They're like two book ends for me.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Claudia, what are your thoughts on that?
- 5:00Speaker 1: So obviously, Claudia, you are a woman that makes her money.
- 5:05Speaker 2: Pays her bills. What do you think of Plumi's response?
- 5:10Speaker 7: Because I have so many friends, I've been in so
- 5:12Speaker 7: many different situations and some similar to this, I think
- 5:16Speaker 7: it's beautiful on one hand to be able to see
- 5:18Speaker 7: a black woman live a soft life, because we all
- 5:20Speaker 7: want that for more Black women have to. I'm sick
- 5:23Speaker 7: of the struggle story having to be all of our stories,
- 5:25Speaker 7: Like why every story about black fol It's going to
- 5:27Speaker 7: be a struggle all my life. So it is nice
- 5:29Speaker 7: to see a black woman to be able to experience
- 5:33Speaker 7: a soft life.
- 5:33Speaker 8: But I'm not gonna lie.
- 5:35Speaker 7: I've made me a little nervous not knowing anything about
- 5:38Speaker 7: the finances. I have a friend that's going through a
- 5:40Speaker 7: divorce right now that lives in New York and she's
- 5:42Speaker 7: wheelchair bound, which happened during her marriage and when it
- 5:45Speaker 7: came down, she used to be a deal and oldeal model,
- 5:48Speaker 7: Miss venezuela gorgeous woman, and he moved her to the
- 5:51Speaker 7: worst city to be in a wheelchair right, and she
- 5:55Speaker 7: had no idea about the finances.
- 5:57Speaker 8: And she so regrets not knowing who who the mortgage
- 6:00Speaker 8: goes to, how to how.
- 6:02Speaker 7: Much was in their account because if if, and I
- 6:05Speaker 7: hope it never happens, if the person ever changes their mind,
- 6:08Speaker 7: you were at their mercy and they.
- 6:09Speaker 8: Will hide money and move it around.
- 6:10Speaker 7: And I just don't think it's a good idea, as
- 6:12Speaker 7: much as you want to say that on TV, and
- 6:14Speaker 7: it is, there is some aspirational quality to that.
- 6:17Speaker 8: I just want her to be a little bit more involved.
- 6:19Speaker 7: You don't got to pay it, but I would need
- 6:20Speaker 7: to be in on it and know what's going on
- 6:22Speaker 7: and know how to write a check. And when I
- 6:24Speaker 7: hear women say, oh my god, my husband handled everything,
- 6:27Speaker 7: and then if something happens and I I'm not putting
- 6:30Speaker 7: this on them.
- 6:31Speaker 8: I just feel like I.
- 6:32Speaker 7: Would just always operate in an abundance of caution because
- 6:34Speaker 7: you just never know. And I just felt like, oh
- 6:37Speaker 7: that was a red flight. I was like, oh my god, no, no, no, no, no,
- 6:39Speaker 7: Please know where your mortage, how you pay morch please, just.
- 6:42Speaker 5: To have a question, do you think that it's slightly
- 6:45Speaker 5: different for food me because she makes so much as
- 6:47Speaker 5: an influencer, so it's more like my money is my
- 6:49Speaker 5: money and your money is my money, as opposed to
- 6:52Speaker 5: I ain't got no money at all.
- 6:53Speaker 8: I don't know. I'm not aware of her as an influencer,
- 6:55Speaker 8: so I don't know.
- 6:56Speaker 2: How my TikTok. She's a big influencer apparently.
- 6:58Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm hardly ever on tiko talk.
- 7:00Speaker 7: I just figured out how to make a damn video
- 7:02Speaker 7: on there, okay, as the oldest at the States. Yes,
- 7:10Speaker 7: I'm like, please help me set up my remote control
- 7:13Speaker 7: for my cable box. At this point, I don't know,
- 7:15Speaker 7: all right, so I don't really know how big she's
- 7:16Speaker 7: on there. But but still though outside of that, but
- 7:19Speaker 7: still it's still your part of that house. You have
- 7:21Speaker 7: equity in that house. I just want her to just
- 7:23Speaker 7: be careful. But but I also love seeing a.
- 7:28Speaker 8: Black woman, especially an African woman.
- 7:31Speaker 7: I love that. I love that is like what our
- 7:33Speaker 7: an is dreamed of, for us to be able to
- 7:35Speaker 7: have a soft life and to you know, not be
- 7:38Speaker 7: so stressed out. But you also can't be dictating how
- 7:41Speaker 7: much the house, how much house you can get if
- 7:44Speaker 7: you don't have any idea much finances.
- 7:46Speaker 8: You kind of need to know that.
- 7:48Speaker 4: I don't know, but it's good she got money.
- 7:52Speaker 8: She's playing ball, played dumb and she I don't want
- 7:55Speaker 8: to play. That doesn't.
- 7:58Speaker 3: Fooling your ass is lying you know damn well what's
- 8:02Speaker 3: going out and what's coming in? Okay, But love that
- 8:05Speaker 3: you decided to lie because it makes incredible television. Bell
- 8:10Speaker 3: collective and keep lying.
- 8:13Speaker 7: I agree, go bigger with the lot.
- 8:16Speaker 2: I think.
- 8:16Speaker 1: Okay, So y'all think for me is fully aware she
- 8:20Speaker 1: was capping for.
- 8:24Speaker 5: That's why ball light about DESI being in charge of
- 8:27Speaker 5: the whole time. She was actually the one running the
- 8:29Speaker 5: money behind the scenes. I think me is playing like
- 8:32Speaker 5: an African seal, and I love it.
- 8:34Speaker 4: She has children.
- 8:35Speaker 3: Ain't no way in hell she don't know about the
- 8:37Speaker 3: security and safety and then them children and that mortgage.
- 8:41Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. Of course she knows what's
- 8:43Speaker 3: going on. Thankfully she lied. We thank her, we speak
- 8:46Speaker 3: her name.
- 8:47Speaker 4: Fool me.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Okay, okay, So I want to come again. This is
- 8:52Speaker 2: a great debate.
- 8:53Speaker 1: One of the things that I saw on TikTok and
- 8:55Speaker 1: the comments were on Twitter and thank y'all fabas Trance
- 9:00Speaker 1: on Twitter on Friday, thank y'all nice, people were comparing
- 9:05Speaker 1: Fumi and Wendy, doctor Wendy from Potomac, who also sort
- 9:10Speaker 1: of was perpetuating this naive tag when it came to things.
- 9:15Speaker 1: Obviously we know now that they're dealing with something serious,
- 9:19Speaker 1: allegations of insurance frog where we did see scenes where
- 9:23Speaker 1: Wendy maybe it seem like she knew nothing. I'll speak myself.
- 9:27Speaker 1: I was even like, Wendy, you wait, too smart, you
- 9:29Speaker 1: know something. Now we're seeing maybe she didn't. So do
- 9:32Speaker 1: you guys think it is giving doctor Wendy t's or not?
- 9:39Speaker 4: No?
- 9:39Speaker 3: And I honestly am offended by people comparing that. Not
- 9:42Speaker 3: nobody on this panel at all, obviously, but I'm offended
- 9:46Speaker 3: by other people comparing that because what's the only thing
- 9:48Speaker 3: they got in common? They on reality TV and the Nigerian. Yeah,
- 9:53Speaker 3: that's it. Fumi is an influencer. Wendy got four degrees. Okay,
- 9:58Speaker 3: so y'all know, Like, no, I don't, and it's completely
- 10:02Speaker 3: different circumstances. Wendy's husband is an attorney, you know what
- 10:07Speaker 3: I'm saying. Wendy is a PhD. They're very well aware
- 10:10Speaker 3: and informed of each other's educational paths and shit and
- 10:14Speaker 3: the jobs that you get there after. And again these
- 10:16Speaker 3: people have children, So no, I don't believe.
- 10:19Speaker 4: It at all.
- 10:20Speaker 8: So I agree with this commray Had.
- 10:22Speaker 7: I think these women are like, you know, when you're
- 10:23Speaker 7: on reality TV being protective of your husband, letting him
- 10:26Speaker 7: operate in the masculine male lead role, like letting him
- 10:29Speaker 7: lead right very well, maybe in all the finances, but
- 10:32Speaker 7: on TV, you know what out here like I.
- 10:35Speaker 8: Let my man lead and I don't know.
- 10:37Speaker 7: And then also when you go on these shows, you
- 10:38Speaker 7: do want to seem like bigger than life, even if
- 10:41Speaker 7: you're a huge in life, you still want to be like,
- 10:43Speaker 7: I don't know if that's still two point six million
- 10:46Speaker 7: dollars in that's me his homes out there, you know
- 10:50Speaker 7: what I'm saying.
- 10:51Speaker 3: Like I slapped my thigh when she said it. You
- 10:53Speaker 3: know what I'm saying.
- 10:57Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
- 10:58Speaker 7: Okay, point six is a lot anywhere except California.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Except I've looked up two point six. It's a regular decent.
- 11:05Speaker 8: House, right, What about Birmingham.
- 11:08Speaker 1: I moved by California, all right, So I want to
- 11:12Speaker 1: get you gotta be in a sino. So one of
- 11:16Speaker 1: the things that also occurred in this reunion was the
- 11:21Speaker 1: Stormy and Tiffany of it all.
- 11:24Speaker 2: Tiffany made some very strong, you know.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Accusations against some of the women, including Thui, where she
- 11:33Speaker 1: felt that Kayla was Stormy's minion.
- 11:39Speaker 2: I asked Amber. She agreed.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Amber agreed that Kayla is Stormy's minion based on what
- 11:45Speaker 1: she has seen. And then Fumi got offended and said,
- 11:49Speaker 1: disabuse yourself of that thought, thinking that I'm going I
- 11:53Speaker 1: need anybody to sort of hold on to to make
- 11:57Speaker 1: me look good.
- 11:58Speaker 2: Claudia, what do you think about that?
- 11:59Speaker 1: Is Tiffany onto something that these girls want to with
- 12:04Speaker 1: friends Stormy and they're not going to go against her?
- 12:06Speaker 2: Or was Tiffany not on the money with that?
- 12:11Speaker 8: I don't know.
- 12:12Speaker 7: I was really trying to figure out, like probably is
- 12:15Speaker 7: a little bit to it that she's like the you know,
- 12:16Speaker 7: some people perceive as the Queen Bee. But I just
- 12:20Speaker 7: feel like, no matter what, Tiffany is gonna have something
- 12:22Speaker 7: negative say about Stormy, Tiffany does not want to like Stormy.
- 12:25Speaker 8: And I just feel like.
- 12:26Speaker 7: She's on some things like when you go at first,
- 12:28Speaker 7: you're like, wait, I don't know.
- 12:29Speaker 8: Then you go back and you watch you like, I
- 12:31Speaker 8: don't know.
- 12:32Speaker 1: Girl.
- 12:33Speaker 7: She just has a real negative energy about her. But
- 12:36Speaker 7: she has been right on a few things. I did
- 12:38Speaker 7: like run the tape back a couple times during the reunion,
- 12:40Speaker 7: and we'll get to that stuff.
- 12:41Speaker 4: But the dog, I.
- 12:46Speaker 5: Don't think she was right about to run the tape thing.
- 12:47Speaker 5: I think she was being woofully up to the.
- 12:50Speaker 7: She she just I just go back to the dog.
- 12:53Speaker 8: The dog knew at the very beginning of.
- 12:58Speaker 2: That dog didn't know, honestly, is like a little.
- 13:01Speaker 8: Dog animals know.
- 13:03Speaker 7: And it's just like I want to like Tiffany and
- 13:06Speaker 7: she just comes off so bitchy and so I hated
- 13:10Speaker 7: her dress.
- 13:11Speaker 2: What was that look.
- 13:15Speaker 7: She was giving Turtle the whole time got kicked out
- 13:19Speaker 7: of a shell.
- 13:19Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 13:21Speaker 7: About her, like I like this, She's fearless, I think
- 13:23Speaker 7: she's great for reality TV. She's great, you need a
- 13:26Speaker 7: Tippy on your show. But oh, she just and then
- 13:29Speaker 7: they both I feel like they both contribute to it.
- 13:31Speaker 7: I feel like Tiffany and Stormy contribute to it, but
- 13:33Speaker 7: I feel like Tiffany is a little bit more sometimes
- 13:37Speaker 7: when Stormy be trying to bring it down Stormy, Tiffany
- 13:40Speaker 7: just be just not wanting to go there. I feel
- 13:42Speaker 7: like she just doesn't want to acquisk to. She feels
- 13:45Speaker 7: like what y'all all.
- 13:45Speaker 8: Think is the star.
- 13:46Speaker 7: So I'm not gonna go there. I'm not gonna be
- 13:48Speaker 7: like y'all, y'all dominions. I'm different than y'all. You guys
- 13:51Speaker 7: are there and I'm here. Y'all can be up under.
- 13:53Speaker 8: Her, she refuses.
- 13:55Speaker 7: I hate to say not fall in line, because no
- 13:57Speaker 7: one wants a fall in line, but she really wants
- 13:59Speaker 7: a known I ain't like them other girls, and I'm
- 14:02Speaker 7: gonna give it to you. And I'm like, well, I
- 14:03Speaker 7: don't know why they rub each other the wrong way,
- 14:05Speaker 7: but probably in another world they could have probably been friends.
- 14:07Speaker 4: I don't know, And to me, that's a disposition.
- 14:10Speaker 3: I agree first of all that she does exude that
- 14:13Speaker 3: type of energy, and to me, that's a disposition that
- 14:15Speaker 3: is only legitimate when it's in response to something right, Like,
- 14:21Speaker 3: you can't just come into a situation that came to
- 14:23Speaker 3: Selle actually did the same thing on her Housewives.
- 14:25Speaker 4: Over in Atlanta.
- 14:26Speaker 2: Thank you for saying that. I think.
- 14:29Speaker 3: Coming into a situation assuming that people have this hierarchy,
- 14:34Speaker 3: you know, this unofficial hierarchy, or are people assume you
- 14:38Speaker 3: as they're subordinate when that's not even the case. And
- 14:41Speaker 3: you're literally creating that on your own. And now we're
- 14:44Speaker 3: at this point of being combative with one another because
- 14:47Speaker 3: you made up in your head that I thought I
- 14:49Speaker 3: was better than you.
- 14:50Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm saying, so you just we.
- 14:52Speaker 3: Are really every name I just mentioned, it's too old
- 14:56Speaker 3: for that shit. And she's elementary high school on the outside.
- 15:00Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, jump robe logic. Then you
- 15:03Speaker 3: think you better than and you think you too good
- 15:06Speaker 3: all that other shit, like you can't just create that.
- 15:11Speaker 1: This is reality with the King and I'm Carlos King.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Let's get back into the shell.
- 15:17Speaker 2: She's telling on herself though.
- 15:19Speaker 5: The thing about Tiffany, I'm trying my heart hold my
- 15:21Speaker 5: face because I'm not good at holding faces on people,
- 15:23Speaker 5: on all of the stuff out of me. Tiffany is
- 15:25Speaker 5: a contrarian. She's the first lady of a church with
- 15:27Speaker 5: no congregation. I think in her mind she's used to
- 15:30Speaker 5: running bibles. I said this before, she used to run
- 15:32Speaker 5: Bible studies. She's used to being the one that people
- 15:34Speaker 5: need her approval, and she feels the way that somebody
- 15:37Speaker 5: else has the ring that needs to be kissed in
- 15:39Speaker 5: her mind.
- 15:39Speaker 6: I also think this is something I've clocked.
- 15:41Speaker 5: Everything that Tiffany says about Stormy is what she would
- 15:44Speaker 5: have done if she was Queen Bee, and she's telling
- 15:46Speaker 5: on herself. In my opinion, she had Stormy has minions
- 15:49Speaker 5: because she has minions. She thinks Stormy is judging her
- 15:52Speaker 5: because she would have judged her. I think the thing
- 15:54Speaker 5: that her and Amber having common Bekay Michelle is they're
- 15:56Speaker 5: both in that train arguing with an MTC. Every time
- 15:59Speaker 5: Amber talked about Kayla, she's centering herself in Kayla's life,
- 16:02Speaker 5: and Kayla was.
- 16:03Speaker 2: Like, I was just picking my nose. I wasn't thinking
- 16:04Speaker 2: about you.
- 16:05Speaker 5: It's just so self aggrandizing. I am worried for Stormy.
- 16:10Speaker 5: Funny enough, because Stormy is not innocent and although I
- 16:13Speaker 5: think the Amber Ander and Amber and Tiffany alignment. If
- 16:18Speaker 5: you were my employee and you were kicking with somebody
- 16:21Speaker 5: like that, and I see that both of you have
- 16:22Speaker 5: a bad habit of creating narratives and unnecessary combat because
- 16:26Speaker 5: you want to assume that I'm guessing at you from
- 16:29Speaker 5: a high ground. I would not trust somebody like that
- 16:31Speaker 5: and my business at a certain point. If they come
- 16:33Speaker 5: back for season two and Amber is no longer working
- 16:36Speaker 5: for Stormy, I would not be upset at that as
- 16:39Speaker 5: a business owner. If I had a friend who was
- 16:41Speaker 5: working with me who was acting like and think about
- 16:43Speaker 5: what tif Keys is saying, that's your friend though whenever
- 16:46Speaker 5: somebody is friends with your ops and they constantly mentioned
- 16:49Speaker 5: but ain't that your friend? But ain't that your friend?
- 16:51Speaker 5: There's a mockery and a nasty in that that. It's
- 16:53Speaker 5: starting to irk my nerves with Tiffany. So, Tiffany, I'm
- 16:56Speaker 5: not a fan. Destin's right, you're a necessary evil. Emphasis
- 16:59Speaker 5: on the evil. You're a nast the church girl. You
- 17:01Speaker 5: the reason I'm Buddhists. Okay, people like you are the
- 17:03Speaker 5: reason why there's church because you judge from a moral
- 17:07Speaker 5: high ground that you say that other people have.
- 17:09Speaker 6: Storm is not perfect, but you think she's you, and
- 17:12Speaker 6: I don't like it.
- 17:13Speaker 4: To me, that's not being a good friend.
- 17:14Speaker 3: That's being a shitty friend when you make your your
- 17:16Speaker 3: friend feel any kind of indifference about one of your ops.
- 17:21Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, especially in this case, which
- 17:23Speaker 4: is unique.
- 17:24Speaker 3: Because there's a lot of years of tangible history between
- 17:29Speaker 3: Stormy and Amber. You know what I'm saying, success, That's
- 17:34Speaker 3: what exactly they locked in on the business tip. So
- 17:37Speaker 3: for Tiffany to be on some that'sh your friend ghetto
- 17:40Speaker 3: ass logic like that is just disappointing.
- 17:43Speaker 4: And I don't think I don't.
- 17:45Speaker 3: Like Tiffany on the show, but I like Tiffany on
- 17:47Speaker 3: the show at the same time.
- 17:48Speaker 5: Man, you know, I got pop up buffusher feel when
- 17:51Speaker 5: she comes on the screen, likes she come up the bullshit.
- 17:53Speaker 2: Sorry, go ahead, And.
- 17:54Speaker 7: I don't want people thinking like, uh, I'm thinking that
- 17:57Speaker 7: I'm saying that Stormy is perfect in this I do
- 17:59Speaker 7: think they both contribute to the drama between them. They
- 18:02Speaker 7: both have popped off when they could have taken the
- 18:04Speaker 7: temperature down. There's been a time when they both went
- 18:06Speaker 7: up when it could have went down, and then one's
- 18:08Speaker 7: trying to do yesterday and the other ones like, nope,
- 18:09Speaker 7: not today, I'm going back up. So they're like never
- 18:12Speaker 7: on the same like plane of trying to like calm
- 18:14Speaker 7: it down.
- 18:14Speaker 8: One's going up, with's going down.
- 18:15Speaker 7: And I just feel like those you know, it's and
- 18:19Speaker 7: I will say that Tiffany, you're playing in our faces
- 18:21Speaker 7: about it's just a mop. It was not just a mop.
- 18:24Speaker 7: The mop is symbolic of the little girling that was happening,
- 18:28Speaker 7: the sunning that was happening, our.
- 18:31Speaker 2: T shirts to be successful. Yeah, ugly as shirts. Sorry,
- 18:35Speaker 2: go ahead.
- 18:35Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 18:37Speaker 1: One thing that so y'all brought up Amber and one
- 18:39Speaker 1: thing that didn't happen at the reunion was you saw
- 18:42Speaker 1: this emotional moment between Amber and Stormy where they both
- 18:47Speaker 1: admitted that things were weird, right and Stormy said, you know,
- 18:51Speaker 1: I didn't hear it from you, and Amber's like, you know,
- 18:54Speaker 1: I don't want to bother you, although this you got
- 18:57Speaker 1: us on this show, this is your world. And I
- 18:59Speaker 1: thought it was a moment where you saw them address
- 19:03Speaker 1: what we kind of assume would be between them because
- 19:08Speaker 1: during filming.
- 19:11Speaker 2: The din't seem weird.
- 19:13Speaker 1: But obviously when it's show airs and all this other stuff.
- 19:17Speaker 1: We were kind of thinking, like, I wonder how things are.
- 19:19Speaker 1: So what did you guys think?
- 19:20Speaker 2: Do you do you? Because you talked about is.
- 19:24Speaker 1: It weird that obviously Amber works for Stormy they're both
- 19:28Speaker 1: on the same show together.
- 19:30Speaker 2: But do you think Blue that they're hug at the end?
- 19:34Speaker 1: Aluti by that there's room for them to navigate this
- 19:39Speaker 1: duality of working and being on the show.
- 19:42Speaker 5: I think that there is love there, but there isn't
- 19:46Speaker 5: enough trust. You can love somebody and be grudged that
- 19:49Speaker 5: they've they've compromised the trust, and so you care about
- 19:52Speaker 5: them deeply, but you have to move differently. And as
- 19:55Speaker 5: somebody who employs my friends and we don't have this.
- 19:58Speaker 5: My friends are so writer or die for me. I can't,
- 20:01Speaker 5: I sincerely because I work with my friends. I think
- 20:03Speaker 5: that's why I'm taking it so personal. I can't imagine
- 20:05Speaker 5: any of my friends who work with me acting like
- 20:07Speaker 5: Amber and I still being able to work with each other.
- 20:10Speaker 5: I'm like a dustin where I mind you all my
- 20:12Speaker 5: friends are arias.
- 20:13Speaker 6: Maybe that's the problem. I'm used to a bunch of
- 20:14Speaker 6: kluck a few bucks.
- 20:15Speaker 5: So I'm used to everybody that was literally, we have
- 20:18Speaker 5: to employee meeting. We can't hire no more aries, right,
- 20:20Speaker 5: So I'm used to people who have my fucking back.
- 20:24Speaker 5: I know my friend told me my book, people told.
- 20:26Speaker 7: Me all my work with me.
- 20:30Speaker 5: This is weird, old shiit to me, I can't conceive
- 20:33Speaker 5: of a world where you're talking to my sister or
- 20:35Speaker 5: Ridger anybody else and being like, that's your friend, that's
- 20:38Speaker 5: your friend. And then I say, not too fucking much
- 20:40Speaker 5: on Blue right. So to me, Stormy loves Amber, Amber
- 20:44Speaker 5: loves Tiffany. But love and trust are two very different things.
- 20:46Speaker 5: I'd rather have a stranger that I trust than a
- 20:49Speaker 5: friend that I love and don't trust working with me.
- 20:52Speaker 7: Amber doesn't really have a spine though that sometimes.
- 20:56Speaker 5: Jason, she's op adjacent quite literally on that couch card.
- 20:59Speaker 8: But that's the show.
- 21:01Speaker 7: So the fact that she's friends with both of them,
- 21:03Speaker 7: and Tiffany kept saying, how you know Stormy has an
- 21:07Speaker 7: entourage show to Tiffany sometimes, so you know.
- 21:10Speaker 5: The mayor's wife a bunch of child.
- 21:17Speaker 6: Mm hmm, good show, Carlos, good show, Well listen, listen.
- 21:22Speaker 1: I love the fact that the show has evoked so
- 21:25Speaker 1: much passionate conversation as relates to everything life and again,
- 21:28Speaker 1: thank you guys so much.
- 21:29Speaker 2: Don't collected.
- 21:30Speaker 1: Birmingham Season one was a humongous success. Thank you to
- 21:35Speaker 1: everybody who tuned in to watch it. TikTok, I mean,
- 21:38Speaker 1: I can't get enough of TikTok recaps of it. We
- 21:41Speaker 1: will see if we're doing it soon. Keep refreshing your
- 21:45Speaker 1: social media.
- 21:46Speaker 7: Did lie though, with that that thing with Kayla though,
- 21:48Speaker 7: she did lie about the whole free laboring thing, the
- 21:51Speaker 7: free labor.
- 21:52Speaker 2: The free labor thing was a lie.
- 21:54Speaker 7: You asked, Tiffany, you stand toes down on saying that
- 21:57Speaker 7: Stormy was getting free labor. And she's like, no, but
- 21:59Speaker 7: but and she's like, that's what you do, and you lie.
- 22:01Speaker 7: And when they roll the tape, she did say that.
- 22:03Speaker 5: So, just like story said, how did I How did
- 22:07Speaker 5: I send her on a mission when you were the
- 22:09Speaker 5: one who invited her?
- 22:11Speaker 2: Genius? Sorry, continue, that's okay.
- 22:14Speaker 1: Make sure y'all catch up on Bell Collective Birmingham Reunion apping.
- 22:17Speaker 2: In dB R, and we'll see what happens next season.
- 22:23Speaker 4: All right, what's the next city, Carlos.
- 22:27Speaker 1: Listen, I'm so focused on Jackson and Birmingham right now.
- 22:31Speaker 2: That I on Dallas. I'm so listed.
- 22:41Speaker 8: He does Dallas.
- 22:42Speaker 2: Okay, I love Dallas. Me and Claudia drink you. She
- 22:48Speaker 2: has a green drink. She's trying to appease you. Right now.
- 22:51Speaker 1: I will say that Birmingham was so it was such
- 22:58Speaker 1: a risk and the best way possible.
- 23:00Speaker 2: I love taking risks.
- 23:03Speaker 1: That it paid off because Jackson is such a big
- 23:07Speaker 1: show that Birmingham. You you always want your first show
- 23:12Speaker 1: of a spin off to be a hit, and Lord
- 23:15Speaker 1: Jesus it was.
- 23:16Speaker 8: You did a good job. I wanted another part of
- 23:18Speaker 8: the Union. I was like, I wanted more of it.
- 23:20Speaker 1: I know we needed two parts and they were listen.
- 23:22Speaker 1: There was so much on the cutting room floor. For
- 23:25Speaker 1: those who felt like it was rushed, it was because
- 23:28Speaker 1: meaning meaning headed wise, because we had to cram so
- 23:31Speaker 1: much in one part, so the.
- 23:34Speaker 4: Next season order will be bigger. So it don't matter.
- 23:42Speaker 6: So no mops, no buckets, no pails, just brooms all right.
- 23:47Speaker 1: Up next, we have Love and Marriage Hunts Spells season finale.
- 23:52Speaker 1: This Wow, This finale had a lot going on. Marcel
- 23:58Speaker 1: chatted with his brother Marie about the state of his
- 24:02Speaker 1: marriage to Laticia Scott, starting with you Dustin. This scene
- 24:09Speaker 1: between Marcel and Latitia that ended the finale was literally
- 24:15Speaker 1: the talk of social media and even today. Marcel pretty
- 24:21Speaker 1: much told Tisha, you're not listening to me. He wants
- 24:24Speaker 1: to buy her out of the company. He did ask
- 24:28Speaker 1: her how much it would take to buy her out
- 24:31Speaker 1: of the company, and she said pretty much. He's not
- 24:34Speaker 1: for sale. And to give a little backstory, Tisha has
- 24:38Speaker 1: two degrees. She has a bachelor's and a master's. And
- 24:42Speaker 1: I want to say something else, but Tisha is heavily degreed.
- 24:47Speaker 1: And Tsha does have ownership of Scope, which is the
- 24:50Speaker 1: business her and Marceau.
- 24:52Speaker 2: He wants to buy her out. He pretty much wants
- 24:54Speaker 2: her to be foomy.
- 25:00Speaker 1: He wants a peacea to be for me, look a
- 25:03Speaker 1: kept woman, enjoy the money I give you ghost shopping,
- 25:06Speaker 1: do what you want to do with it, and let me.
- 25:08Speaker 2: Run the business. And a lot of things happened.
- 25:12Speaker 1: Everyone said it was tough to watch Dustin since you
- 25:14Speaker 1: already one to watch her, Yeah, or your thoughts on
- 25:17Speaker 1: that whole moment.
- 25:18Speaker 3: It wasn't tough to watch for me because I don't
- 25:21Speaker 3: feel that their marriage, the state of their marriage is
- 25:23Speaker 3: in jeopardy at all.
- 25:25Speaker 4: I think that Marceau just wanted to be heard.
- 25:28Speaker 3: And sometimes in a marriage and a relationship and a
- 25:31Speaker 3: friendship and a work relationship, sometimes you gotta yield when
- 25:35Speaker 3: you've give a damn about the relationship, right, Sometimes you
- 25:38Speaker 3: gotta give a little bit.
- 25:40Speaker 4: And I think that Letitia.
- 25:43Speaker 3: Was more committed to expressing herself and refuting certain claims
- 25:49Speaker 3: that Marceau was making that it was restricting her from
- 25:52Speaker 3: being able to listen. This comment just made me laugh,
- 25:55Speaker 3: because why would you spell her name in all caps?
- 25:58Speaker 4: That means that you've got to say it, teach Scott, but.
- 26:03Speaker 3: Listen. Letitia wouldn't listen. Mar Souldiers wanted to be heard.
- 26:08Speaker 3: I don't think that he actually really wants to buy
- 26:11Speaker 3: her out. I think that's more of a way of
- 26:13Speaker 3: him expressing that, hey, I'm in distress over here. We
- 26:17Speaker 3: got to have some solution to this very real problem
- 26:20Speaker 3: in our relationship, right, And that's his way of messaging
- 26:23Speaker 3: to her. I'm serious as fuck, I'm not just talking
- 26:26Speaker 3: shit like we need to make some changes. But I
- 26:28Speaker 3: don't think he wants to buy her out. And as
- 26:30Speaker 3: far as him wanted her to be a stay at
- 26:32Speaker 3: home kept wife too, late. You know what I'm saying,
- 26:35Speaker 3: She's not. She's on fucking television. Number one. You know
- 26:39Speaker 3: what I'm saying. Number two, She has gone back to
- 26:41Speaker 3: school with the intention and blatant intention, as she was
- 26:46Speaker 3: very vocal during her time while she was getting that
- 26:49Speaker 3: master's degree about wanting independence, wanting to work, wanting to
- 26:54Speaker 3: be fulfilled through having a career.
- 26:57Speaker 4: Of some sort.
- 26:57Speaker 3: And he knew that and supported it back then. And
- 27:00Speaker 3: so you don't get to play the uno reverse now
- 27:02Speaker 3: too late. Get with the program, Mars. You love your family,
- 27:06Speaker 3: You love the way Latitia scott mother's your children. You
- 27:09Speaker 3: love Latitia Scotty. All the shit that's been thrown at them,
- 27:13Speaker 3: all the rumors, all the accusations.
- 27:15Speaker 4: They would have been fell apart if they didn't really
- 27:17Speaker 4: love each other. Hello.
- 27:18Speaker 3: So they just need to work that part out. And
- 27:20Speaker 3: he needs to reframe his his lens on what his
- 27:26Speaker 3: wife looks like as far as how she shows up
- 27:29Speaker 3: in the world as a working woman. Get with the program.
- 27:32Speaker 3: The horse is already out the stable, bro. You can't
- 27:35Speaker 3: bring you can't. It's it's too late to reverse that.
- 27:38Speaker 3: Latitia is doing her own thing, and she should be,
- 27:41Speaker 3: and she's more she's much more likable to be honest
- 27:45Speaker 3: with you now than she was back when her ass
- 27:47Speaker 3: was at home all day miserable in season one. Okay,
- 27:51Speaker 3: this is a totally more fun Latisia Scott tell She
- 27:54Speaker 3: had on a leopard catsuit and the bright red streaks.
- 27:59Speaker 3: That's what's a woman that is free?
- 28:04Speaker 4: You ready to go to Reno shout out to TV's woman.
- 28:07Speaker 4: Now what loosed?
- 28:09Speaker 3: Okay, and it is too late. It's too late, so
- 28:14Speaker 3: get with the program.
- 28:15Speaker 4: That's what I Claudia.
- 28:18Speaker 8: She got my nerves in the scene. He just got.
- 28:25Speaker 7: It's like she wasn't listening to understand, she was just
- 28:28Speaker 7: listening to respond. As soon as he's done talking, well,
- 28:30Speaker 7: I think, I'm like, did you hear anything he said?
- 28:32Speaker 7: And I felt bad for him actually, And you know,
- 28:34Speaker 7: I usually take the girl's side, the woman's side.
- 28:36Speaker 8: But I don't know that's true. Yeah, I used to
- 28:38Speaker 8: do and nothing.
- 28:39Speaker 7: I was like, girl, he's trying to like have a
- 28:41Speaker 7: conversation with you, and he brought that up, that value
- 28:44Speaker 7: and the question about buying you out.
- 28:46Speaker 8: I don't know if he really is.
- 28:47Speaker 7: Serious about that, but at the advice of his brother,
- 28:49Speaker 7: which I don't know if should take indvice from his brother,
- 28:51Speaker 7: but he took advice from his brother about asking her
- 28:54Speaker 7: what she thinks her value or contribution to the company is.
- 28:56Speaker 7: And she even admitted I have not been contributing like
- 28:58Speaker 7: I used to and I'm not. But then it also
- 29:00Speaker 7: is on his neck about not getting the projects done
- 29:03Speaker 7: that she wants and her stuff done.
- 29:06Speaker 8: I felt bad.
- 29:06Speaker 7: It was like you ever watch two friends that you like,
- 29:09Speaker 7: care about both of them, and they're like two ships
- 29:11Speaker 7: passing in life. They're not they're not they're it ain't landing,
- 29:14Speaker 7: like they're not listening to each other.
- 29:16Speaker 8: But she really wasn't listening to them.
- 29:18Speaker 7: All she heard was buy me out, divorce, and then
- 29:21Speaker 7: it was over with and then it was just it
- 29:23Speaker 7: blew up. And I feel like that conversation could have
- 29:25Speaker 7: gone a totally different way if they were they were listening.
- 29:29Speaker 5: Yeah, Scott, some bail lord, well might strike me that. Okay,
- 29:35Speaker 5: so y'all know that i'd be having strong feelings about
- 29:37Speaker 5: Latiia Scott. But I will say this, Uh, Dustin, you
- 29:41Speaker 5: said something really important. You said he didn't mean that
- 29:43Speaker 5: he was trying to get her attention. I'm never a
- 29:45Speaker 5: fan of not saying what you mean right, because the
- 29:49Speaker 5: thing that you tend to say to get someone's attention
- 29:53Speaker 5: is the thing that you know is going to trigger them.
- 29:54Speaker 5: So how can we be shocked that somebody's triggered when
- 29:57Speaker 5: you're saying something triggering to get their attention. And so
- 30:00Speaker 5: I'm throwing on the Tisia Scott bailed because he knows
- 30:03Speaker 5: that to her it's gonna fail, like a soft launch
- 30:05Speaker 5: of a divorce. That thing that you do want to
- 30:07Speaker 5: shock her pay attention is also gonna shock her to
- 30:09Speaker 5: be frazzled. And let's be clear, she's not the most
- 30:12Speaker 5: no offense to you, Carlos, She's not the most emotionally
- 30:14Speaker 5: regulated person.
- 30:16Speaker 2: Okay, she need to talk to the lady.
- 30:18Speaker 5: Maybe take some of them Ginko Guylobo pills that you
- 30:20Speaker 5: be taking to bring herself down. She's easily spooped. You're
- 30:23Speaker 5: talking about the horses out the stable. You don't even
- 30:26Speaker 5: have to unlatch the hookle. You just got a cough
- 30:27Speaker 5: and the horse runs out the stable. So she's a
- 30:30Speaker 5: very frazzled woman, naturally.
- 30:32Speaker 6: So saying something that you know she's gonna.
- 30:33Speaker 5: Take inflammatorily and then be stunned. She's not listening doesn't
- 30:37Speaker 5: make sense to me. I could have told you, like
- 30:39Speaker 5: negro Domis, that she wasn't gonna listen as soon as
- 30:41Speaker 5: you mentioned that. So Latitia Scott not wanting to feel obsolete,
- 30:44Speaker 5: not wanting to feel like she's going to be soft
- 30:47Speaker 5: launching and uncoupling, not wanting to feel that all the
- 30:50Speaker 5: independence that she fought for is being taken from her.
- 30:52Speaker 6: Even though I don't agree with how she did it,
- 30:54Speaker 6: because I.
- 30:54Speaker 5: Am emotionally regulated, I completely think it's inevitable that she
- 30:57Speaker 5: would have responded that way. I kind of wish that
- 31:00Speaker 5: he had found a more honest and compassionate way to
- 31:04Speaker 5: say what he meant, rather than scaring a frazzle horse.
- 31:07Speaker 7: Ooh, some of the comments.
- 31:08Speaker 8: Try to shave to all of us.
- 31:09Speaker 7: They said, no offense, but none of y'all married.
- 31:12Speaker 4: We'll y'all right, I drink that. Hey, cheers y'all we
- 31:19Speaker 4: ain't married.
- 31:24Speaker 2: And also to cheers to that.
- 31:26Speaker 5: Let's do some quick math, because this is just like
- 31:28Speaker 5: when Claudia gets called a whole.
- 31:29Speaker 2: This is this is where I get it. Say, let's
- 31:31Speaker 2: talk about this. Let's talk about this.
- 31:33Speaker 7: Okay, The average customer service bitch has had more digs
- 31:36Speaker 7: than me.
- 31:37Speaker 8: I promise you that.
- 31:37Speaker 5: Let me explain something to This is something that I
- 31:39Speaker 5: talk about quite often about the hierarchy of emotional intelligence
- 31:42Speaker 5: when it comes to dating, and I actually want you
- 31:43Speaker 5: guys to do this math right. When it comes to
- 31:45Speaker 5: emotional intelligence and dating. First place is two healthy people together.
- 31:49Speaker 5: Second place is one healthy person by themselves. Third place
- 31:52Speaker 5: is an ain't shiitt nigga bite them you a mess
- 31:55Speaker 5: which you buy yourself as a localized harm.
- 31:57Speaker 6: Last place is a couple and duress as.
- 32:00Speaker 5: Somebody in second place. I can speak the fourth because
- 32:02Speaker 5: of math. The only person who I need to listen
- 32:06Speaker 5: to is too healthy people because I'm only one healthy person.
- 32:08Speaker 5: So we actually, as unmarried healthy people can talk to
- 32:12Speaker 5: people who are struggling in a relationship that actually does
- 32:15Speaker 5: track not too much, not too much on the panel. Yeah,
- 32:23Speaker 5: I was engaged, just ahead.
- 32:26Speaker 4: It's best if I don't say it, because I've been doing.
- 32:31Speaker 2: The thing.
- 32:32Speaker 8: Come out.
- 32:33Speaker 7: We haven't heard that from me, the wild friend. Come on,
- 32:36Speaker 7: it's been me a while.
- 32:43Speaker 2: I've been very very honest about marriage.
- 32:46Speaker 1: Just isn't on my bingo card, is not on my
- 32:49Speaker 1: vision board. And a lot of that has to do
- 32:53Speaker 1: with the fact that I produce yourself called loving marriage.
- 32:58Speaker 2: You see too much.
- 32:59Speaker 1: It's like a guy made me realize this is and
- 33:03Speaker 1: I told the castles they know this.
- 33:05Speaker 2: I have no desire because the.
- 33:09Speaker 1: Thing that people don't talk about out loud is this
- 33:12Speaker 1: unless you are willing and some are and I'll say
- 33:17Speaker 1: some are, unless you're willing to have tough conversations every
- 33:23Speaker 1: couple of years about are we still attracted to each
- 33:28Speaker 1: other months these days?
- 33:29Speaker 4: You know?
- 33:30Speaker 2: Okay?
- 33:31Speaker 1: Likes who you become is what I fell in love with.
- 33:35Speaker 1: Because the thing that people don't want to talk about
- 33:38Speaker 1: when a man proposes to a woman, he's proposing to
- 33:43Speaker 1: the woman he met that day, meeting who that woman
- 33:47Speaker 1: is that day, and that woman is going to evolve,
- 33:51Speaker 1: and ten years from now he's going to look up
- 33:54Speaker 1: and say, I don't recognize you, and it's unfair to her.
- 33:57Speaker 2: And listen, is vice versa the man too.
- 34:00Speaker 1: My point is marriage sounds good in theory because you
- 34:04Speaker 1: fall in love with the person you met that time
- 34:06Speaker 1: in their lives, but are you willing to go through
- 34:10Speaker 1: the mud with them ten years, twenty years from now?
- 34:13Speaker 1: Similar to on this show, all of a sudden, you know,
- 34:16Speaker 1: Kimmy and Marie said cheating is not a deal breaker
- 34:19Speaker 1: for us. Kimmy was adamant when the show started seven
- 34:22Speaker 1: eight years ago. Cheating is a deal breaker, she said,
- 34:26Speaker 1: and her Marie said, uh, not sure anymore eight years later,
- 34:29Speaker 1: because you know, we see our friends go through things, which,
- 34:33Speaker 1: by the way, before we move on, what did you
- 34:35Speaker 1: guys think about that?
- 34:37Speaker 2: Is cheating a deal breaker for you?
- 34:39Speaker 7: Claudia, I mean I committed assault the last time I
- 34:45Speaker 7: found out someone cheated. I mean some probably at the
- 34:47Speaker 7: best person to ask, I should have been arrested for
- 34:50Speaker 7: what I did. Actually, but because the person guilty me
- 34:53Speaker 7: proposed to me put a big damn a five care
- 34:55Speaker 7: ring on my finger and guilt to me when I
- 34:57Speaker 7: was like, I'm not sure if I'm ready to marry you.
- 35:00Speaker 7: And then I stayed around longer than I should have
- 35:02Speaker 7: and found out he was cheating with.
- 35:05Speaker 8: Ladies of the Knights and it ended up owing me money.
- 35:09Speaker 7: So I rolled up on his ass and I committed assault.
- 35:15Speaker 7: I said, I can't believe I stayed with you when
- 35:17Speaker 7: I was unhappy to help you through something. And so yeah,
- 35:22Speaker 7: for me, I'm big on that because it wasn't just
- 35:25Speaker 7: you had sex with that person. You hit on that person,
- 35:28Speaker 7: you got their number, you had conversations, you plotted, you
- 35:31Speaker 7: denied me to someone else. You then went over, you
- 35:34Speaker 7: hung with that person, You probably had sex with them.
- 35:36Speaker 7: Then you probably had sex with them unprotected. Then you
- 35:38Speaker 7: came up in my face and my acting like I
- 35:41Speaker 7: was crazy for thinking you were doing something wrong. It's
- 35:44Speaker 7: so many steps involved in cheating that it's not just
- 35:48Speaker 7: an accident. When people say it's an accent, missed me
- 35:50Speaker 7: with that. An accident is walking through the house at
- 35:53Speaker 7: night and stepping my toe on the couch. An accident
- 35:56Speaker 7: is not all those steps it takes to make something happen.
- 35:58Speaker 7: It's so hard to get on a day with someone
- 36:00Speaker 7: to do it while you have someone go behind their back.
- 36:03Speaker 8: I'm sorry.
- 36:03Speaker 7: I have a zero tolerance policy because as much beautiful, rich,
- 36:10Speaker 7: great high indeed that.
- 36:11Speaker 8: I've gotten throwing on me, I somehow con manage to
- 36:13Speaker 8: me faithful.
- 36:14Speaker 7: I don't want to hear about men have options everyone
- 36:16Speaker 7: that's not even having to be good looking. Everyone has options,
- 36:20Speaker 7: So no you and not. It's a betrayal for me
- 36:22Speaker 7: that really irritates me because when I go all in,
- 36:24Speaker 7: I go all in and I forsake all others, okay,
- 36:28Speaker 7: all others. So yes, I'm fucking you up. I'm whooping
- 36:31Speaker 7: your ass, and I got a base for your ass.
- 36:34Speaker 1: I'm sorry saying that cheating is a deal breaker.
- 36:41Speaker 8: Y'all made me drink though we love the story.
- 36:45Speaker 1: No, no, somebody acts of the commonist when I said it, Dustin,
- 36:48Speaker 1: is cheating a deal breaker for you if you were
- 36:50Speaker 1: in a relationship?
- 36:51Speaker 4: Hell yeah, you know what I'm saying.
- 36:53Speaker 3: First of all, me being in a relationship, that's me
- 36:57Speaker 3: investing my time, my care and me.
- 37:01Speaker 4: I'm prioritizing you. I'm a real nigga, you know what
- 37:03Speaker 4: I'm saying.
- 37:03Speaker 3: So I'm a step behind Minde a certain way, and
- 37:07Speaker 3: that is a huge investment for me to make in
- 37:09Speaker 3: all ways that you can think of.
- 37:11Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
- 37:12Speaker 3: It's a lot of sacrifice, a lot of humbling of yourself,
- 37:16Speaker 3: all of that shit, and that can't be for naught,
- 37:19Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying.
- 37:20Speaker 4: It has to be.
- 37:20Speaker 3: It has to be a worthwhile investment for me, just
- 37:25Speaker 3: just my personal metrics, right. And also, I have to
- 37:29Speaker 3: feel like I matter to you, because otherwise I'm going
- 37:31Speaker 3: to I'm going to prioritize myself and I'm not gonna
- 37:35Speaker 3: think about your emotional needs all that other shit.
- 37:37Speaker 4: So yeah, nah, and you ain't even got to cheat.
- 37:39Speaker 4: We can fit.
- 37:40Speaker 3: Like it's things that you can figure out, you know
- 37:43Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Like it's ways that you guys can
- 37:46Speaker 3: make sure each other are satisfied whatever.
- 37:48Speaker 4: Like it's no excuse for you to betray my our trust.
- 37:52Speaker 4: I don't even believe in being in relationships like that,
- 37:55Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying.
- 37:56Speaker 3: So like for me to you feel me so like
- 37:59Speaker 3: to to trust you in that way and then you
- 38:02Speaker 3: betrayed literally to trust Hell no.
- 38:05Speaker 7: And the thought of someone like laugh thinking it's funny,
- 38:08Speaker 7: like they're laying up with the other person and you're
- 38:10Speaker 7: calling them and they're not answering it. That right there
- 38:13Speaker 7: is what is Like, it's so cruel to do to someone.
- 38:17Speaker 7: That part, it's not even the physically sexual part of it.
- 38:21Speaker 7: It's the mental part that you were doing to me,
- 38:23Speaker 7: like you're lying to me and a lot of times gaslighting,
- 38:26Speaker 7: making me think I'm crazy for being suspicious or that
- 38:29Speaker 7: I'm insecure.
- 38:30Speaker 8: That's the part that really gets me.
- 38:31Speaker 7: You giving one up on me where they some girl
- 38:34Speaker 7: can see me out and be like, hmm, yeah he
- 38:36Speaker 7: was over here.
- 38:37Speaker 8: Oh oh oh yeah, man, I.
- 38:39Speaker 4: Know what are your thoughts.
- 38:41Speaker 1: Blue's cheating a deal breaker for the blue to lose mind.
- 38:47Speaker 2: I have a violent streak that i've.
- 38:52Speaker 4: You.
- 38:52Speaker 2: Women are fighting.
- 38:56Speaker 6: Even now I'm counting backwards form one hundred.
- 38:58Speaker 2: I got to about sixty before you call on me.
- 39:02Speaker 5: I've been with men who told me I cheat on
- 39:03Speaker 5: everybody but you because I'm scared and I liked.
- 39:05Speaker 6: I love men who know how to keep safe.
- 39:07Speaker 5: I love men who recognize when they're in danger and
- 39:09Speaker 5: they keep safe.
- 39:11Speaker 2: They do a dateline special on me. If you cheat
- 39:13Speaker 2: it on me.
- 39:14Speaker 6: So I just I'm not even kidding, no l ol
- 39:16Speaker 6: on this shit.
- 39:17Speaker 5: So knowing that I walk in a very righteous way
- 39:21Speaker 5: and I allow myself one cheat mill a year, I
- 39:24Speaker 5: would you would rule the day we ever met self
- 39:28Speaker 5: even don't even let me find out. Write me a
- 39:30Speaker 5: Dear John letter on the way to the Amtrak. Don't
- 39:33Speaker 5: let me find out. So You're not only he's chilling
- 39:36Speaker 5: a deal breaker. I'd break the law on some real
- 39:38Speaker 5: like Claudia confessors. I would break the law.
- 39:40Speaker 8: I confess.
- 39:41Speaker 7: What's the stature limitation on salt in California.
- 39:43Speaker 5: Ah, I would break the law and my friends would
- 39:47Speaker 5: help me hide you.
- 39:48Speaker 6: I just don't do it.
- 39:50Speaker 5: Just And the thing about cheating, to your point, Claudia,
- 39:52Speaker 5: is I'm so cognizant of all the steps it takes
- 39:55Speaker 5: to keep a lie like that around me, because one
- 39:58Speaker 5: thing that all of us have in common is specially Carlos,
- 40:00Speaker 5: when the camera's not on it, we're all very direct people.
- 40:05Speaker 2: We're all very direct people. Kick it. I'm very honest man, Lou.
- 40:12Speaker 7: You know that tonight he positioned himself nowhere near that mirror.
- 40:16Speaker 5: Oh no, he's like shying Ryan with the with the
- 40:18Speaker 5: pictures in the back, with.
- 40:19Speaker 4: The whole things, and not one degree. So I just
- 40:25Speaker 4: know them behind it.
- 40:27Speaker 5: I might.
- 40:27Speaker 6: I'll check the l as the violent one I could
- 40:29Speaker 6: just be for me.
- 40:30Speaker 5: I am an aries tourist cusp Okay, I am violent
- 40:34Speaker 5: only when provoked.
- 40:35Speaker 6: But when I am provoked, I want to finish it.
- 40:37Speaker 2: I won't start it, but I will finish it.
- 40:39Speaker 5: So God help any man who ever cheats on me,
- 40:42Speaker 5: pray that I don't find out.
- 40:44Speaker 3: Also, based on what that comment just said, why I
- 40:47Speaker 3: get married if if you're not really commits y'all can't
- 40:51Speaker 3: wake up, you know what I'm saying, Because people get
- 40:53Speaker 3: married for all kinds of reasons, financial reasons, it's all
- 40:58Speaker 3: kinds of ships, lavender ship, all kinds of shit. People
- 41:03Speaker 3: get married for all kinds of reasons. So you can't
- 41:06Speaker 3: really that that that fairy tale ship. You have to
- 41:09Speaker 3: pop your head out ofea ass when it comes to that.
- 41:11Speaker 8: You know what about you? You have an answer? Is
- 41:14Speaker 8: cheating and delbreaker to you friend?
- 41:16Speaker 4: Yeah?

- 41:43Speaker 1: right and anybody who knows me, I will give my
- 41:47Speaker 1: all the moment I decide that you're my partner, so
- 41:51Speaker 1: for me, the fact that you don't have to think
- 41:55Speaker 1: worry about anything when you're with me, and you still
- 41:59Speaker 1: choose to do that, I will leave expeditiously because apparently
- 42:05Speaker 1: I'm not.

- 42:32Speaker 8: I had a boyfriend. Are you faithful to your boyfriend?
- 42:39Speaker 8: If you had a boyfriend?
- 42:40Speaker 2: Of course I won't be real, y'all because why not? Yes? Now,
- 42:46Speaker 2: have I cheated before? Yes?

- 42:59Speaker 2: I it's too risky.
- 43:02Speaker 6: Yeah, what y'all do a vacation little. Here's the thing,
- 43:06Speaker 6: I have a thing.
- 43:06Speaker 5: Though I don't believe in cheating, I do believe in
- 43:08Speaker 5: having I think Dustin and I are the closest. When
- 43:10Speaker 5: he said about the other arrangements, I've always said that
- 43:13Speaker 5: if I was in a relationship and we made the
- 43:15Speaker 5: ten year mark and we went to a let's say
- 43:17Speaker 5: abitha right, and we decided that we're gonna get us
- 43:22Speaker 5: a little a little party packet with a stranger and
- 43:26Speaker 5: then come home and it never happened, and they're nowhere
- 43:28Speaker 5: in our ecosystem. I'm not completely opposed to when I'm
- 43:33Speaker 5: hit double digits, find interesting ways to keep it interesting.
- 43:36Speaker 6: The only thing that made me stop those I think candidate.
- 43:38Speaker 2: That with todd and not an end.
- 43:39Speaker 3: Well, well, let me tell you, and they were. They
- 43:42Speaker 3: were perfectly entitled to do just that. And more so,
- 43:46Speaker 3: should you be emboldened and empowered to do that when
- 43:49Speaker 3: the swinging ass, filthy, dirty dick ass Republicans are getting
- 43:54Speaker 3: caught every other motherfucking day.
- 43:55Speaker 4: Christinan motherfucking husband had a.
- 43:57Speaker 3: Whole buzzomnase it that she ain't even that she lion
- 44:02Speaker 3: saying she ain't know about So then motherfuckers is doing
- 44:05Speaker 3: whatever they want to do, swinging in and out, pineapples
- 44:07Speaker 3: all on the door.
- 44:08Speaker 4: And now they're doing all of that.
- 44:09Speaker 3: So don't you hold your head up as you go
- 44:12Speaker 3: to you visa.
- 44:16Speaker 4: I tell you on after dark, Okay, I'll.
- 44:19Speaker 1: Say this much and y'all can read me, and we'll
- 44:21Speaker 1: talk about this later or after dark, ladies, ladies, ladies.
- 44:27Speaker 1: I not only watched Joe Budden Show every single day.
- 44:30Speaker 1: Shout out to Blue to Lusma who was on the
- 44:32Speaker 1: Patreon episode, so make sure y'all watch it.
- 44:36Speaker 2: I also have six brothers. I also like to listen
- 44:40Speaker 2: to Barbara Stop talk.
- 44:41Speaker 1: I will say that I have never and ladies, this
- 44:44Speaker 1: is some free game for y'all.
- 44:46Speaker 2: Ladies, listen up.
- 44:47Speaker 1: I've never met a straight man whose woman agreed to
- 44:53Speaker 1: have a threesome and he remained faithful.
- 44:56Speaker 2: To his ground husband.
- 45:00Speaker 1: Never mind, listen, listen there's talk me out of the baby.
- 45:07Speaker 2: Sorry, does that make you?
- 45:08Speaker 4: That's what I was like, Make your point, make your point.
- 45:12Speaker 2: Battle.
- 45:13Speaker 1: There's exceptions to every rule. I am telling you what
- 45:17Speaker 1: straight men has said to me, because y'all think only
- 45:21Speaker 1: the gay guys talk to the girls. No straight man
- 45:24Speaker 1: like they said this to me, los I mean, you
- 45:32Speaker 1: know she she pretty much let your boy get off
- 45:35Speaker 1: on this one. She left the door open. That's how
- 45:39Speaker 1: they feel. So, ladies, I'm putting off on game. If
- 45:42Speaker 1: a man says to you and you're his and you're
- 45:44Speaker 1: his woman, he's you're giving him a free pass.
- 45:48Speaker 2: And last but not leaves and Dustin go cook.
- 45:51Speaker 1: The man said to me, No real straight man is
- 45:55Speaker 1: ever going to have his wife or the love of
- 45:59Speaker 1: his life even entertain the thought of being with another woman.
- 46:03Speaker 2: He does that to holes, not the woman he said.
- 46:05Speaker 4: I do too.
- 46:07Speaker 3: That's a nigga that give a fuck about what another
- 46:09Speaker 3: nigga think. You know what I'm saying, that's a weak nigga,
- 46:11Speaker 3: because I can count multiple men who I know who
- 46:15Speaker 3: are being happy, thriving non traditional marriages with women and
- 46:21Speaker 3: doing whatever they want to do together and are not
- 46:24Speaker 3: stepping outside of the rules that they've set. So like,
- 46:27Speaker 3: I don't know, there is a certain man that exists
- 46:30Speaker 3: who is one hundred percent straight, you know what I'm saying,
- 46:32Speaker 3: not by not gay, not paying nothing, just a straight
- 46:35Speaker 3: man who him and his wife swing and they only
- 46:40Speaker 3: do it together. I know tons of people like that.
- 46:43Speaker 3: I'm gay, so people feel comfortable telling me table sexual
- 46:46Speaker 3: things sometimes, you know what I'm saying, So like I
- 46:50Speaker 3: hear about this stuff. I know these people in real life,
- 46:53Speaker 3: So some people do feel like that, you know what
- 46:56Speaker 3: I'm saying, But again, that's who those people are around
- 46:59Speaker 3: that open the right that's.
- 47:00Speaker 2: Because I feel like that.
- 47:01Speaker 5: The point of contention is you're saying they're open, So
- 47:03Speaker 5: the openness is already their cadence.
- 47:07Speaker 3: About people who do that right there, one off crew
- 47:11Speaker 3: happily and that's all they want. They don't want, you
- 47:14Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, They don't want. They're not they're
- 47:17Speaker 3: not cheating on They're like, Yo, she we could do it.
- 47:21Speaker 4: What do I give me.
- 47:23Speaker 2: One time and they're done?
- 47:24Speaker 5: Yeah. I think I think you're talking more about the
- 47:25Speaker 5: life style. I'm talking about like a ten year anniversary gift.
- 47:28Speaker 5: I'm not talking about swingers.
- 47:29Speaker 3: Oh well, I'm talking about like once a year niggas
- 47:32Speaker 3: like that, like once a year me and my wife
- 47:34Speaker 3: do what.
- 47:34Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. I know a lot of
- 47:36Speaker 4: people like that, y'all.
- 47:37Speaker 6: So when Carlos talked me out of it, the next
- 47:41Speaker 6: time I get into a relationship.
- 47:42Speaker 2: Claudia, okay, I'm gonna have Claudia and the Claudia and
- 47:44Speaker 2: the once for once and for all. You have a
- 47:47Speaker 2: lot of males friends, you have a lot of female friends.
- 47:49Speaker 9: What are your thoughts on couples who have a third party,
- 47:55Speaker 9: particularly in this in this conversation, a man who involves
- 47:59Speaker 9: another one with his wife.
- 48:02Speaker 7: Look, you're never gonna go back to the the default
- 48:06Speaker 7: settings once he gets the taste of that. Once he
- 48:08Speaker 7: gets the taste of that, why is he gonna do
- 48:11Speaker 7: It's so easy to make that jump up? Well, you
- 48:13Speaker 7: let me do it once, and what's the big deal.
- 48:14Speaker 8: That's why I told Roder.
