  Speaker 1: Why you ain't sleep?
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: My mind just would not shut off. I did everything
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: that puts me to sleep. I... I masturbated like three times.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: I closed my eyes and thought about Drake. I got
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: up and did like some exercise. I got up and read.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Nothing worked. Nothing worked. I stayed up all night. And
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: before I knew it, so I started to doze off
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: like four. And then I hear Bella crying. So I
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: get up to see what's wrong. She does shit up
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: her cage. Like I'm talking about disgusting shit. And her
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: paws are all dirty. So now I got to clean
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: her up. clean the cage out, clean the bathroom floor,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: because now the bathroom floor has poop on it, so
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: now I have to mop. So finally, I get back
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: in the bed. I'm still laying there with my mind
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: on whatever. I think I masturbated again after that. Nothing helped.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Shitty gloves.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: I'm cleaned up by now, obviously. I didn't go back
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: to bed with shit anywhere.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Silly.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: And then 6 o'clock, she did it again. 6 a.m.,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: she did it again. She pooped up again. so and
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: then it was time to get ready for work so.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Are you drinking like uh energy drinks and stuff like
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: that are too much coffee during the day because i'll
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: do it to you.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: No so um typically i just have one cup of
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: mushroom coffee in the morning that's what i've been having
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: all year and it hasn't done that to me so
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: i don't know.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Girl Try meditation. I use this app called Sync Tuition.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I think I've mentioned it here on We Talk Back before.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: But y'all, if y'all got a problem sleeping and shit
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: like that or just trying to get into meditation, that
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: shit works. Like, for real, for real. But sometimes it
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: might sound like somebody walking in your house, though. The sounds.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I tried brown noise. I tried a meditation on YouTube.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: I tried everything last night. I just could not sleep.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: My sleep hygiene is really bad ever since I got
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: back from L.A. Mm-hmm.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know, man. Well, aside from that, how was
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: your weekend, child?
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: My weekend was okay. My MS was flaring a little
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: bit this weekend. That's a conversation for another episode. Saturday night,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I saw one of my friends messaged me, and she
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: was like, hey, I have to take my client. I'm
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: trying to secure this client, and his plus one isn't coming.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Would you like to come with us to see Cat Williams?
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: So I went with them to see Cat Williams over
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: the weekend, and he was fucking hilarious. He was so good.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Tori Hart, she did okay. You know that joke at
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: the end that's supposed to be that big ha-ha? It
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: bombed real bad.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, she'll get better.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, as she go. But she had some funny moments.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, all her comedy was about him, but that's
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: fair because all his comedy was about her and the
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: kids at one point, so I'm not mad at that.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: But it was a really good show. If Cat Williams
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: is coming your way, y'all should go see him. He's
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: really funny. And he did not talk about nobody. I mean,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: he did talk about people, but not the people that
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: we thought he was going to talk about.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Did he talk about Kevin Hart?
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: No, he didn't talk about any comedians. Politicians and shit.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: He didn't talk about the election. Y'all got to go
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: see it. I'm going to tell you.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: He always talk about politics. That's all I'm asking.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he definitely talked about politics. And he talked about
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: being in this world and now's the time where you
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: literally could be anything you want to be. Like it's
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: the best time to be alive. And then he literally
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: put a video of a kid. I didn't laugh at
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: this part. My soul wanted to, but I just stared
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: in the sky. Of a kid, a blind kid playing football.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: He's like, y'all, we living in a time where you
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: can do whatever you want. And this poor baby was
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: just running all over the field, wrong directions and shit.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: He ain't shit for that. This weekend was St. Jude
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Hospital annual celebration of hope. So I joined everybody down
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: in Memphis, Tennessee, the most filthiest city in America. Sorry, Memphis. Oh,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I just want to know where is the suburbs? Where's
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the nice areas? And of course, I did not take
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: none of them tours. Actually, I did tour the campus,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: the actual hospital campus, which is really nice. But it
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: was a good time. We got to try to find
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: some type of way to implement some of their initiatives
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: in the show, possibly. And, you know, the sneaker ball
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: that they had last year was super crunk this year, child.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: They had Dougie Fresh, Tweet performed, Eric Benet performed. Oh,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: it was lit.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: It looked like a good time. It looked like a
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: good time. I wanted to be there.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: They had like a little 70s party on Friday night.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: But aside from all the fun stuff, the kids that
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: they had come speak, you know, I'm going to tell y'all,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I was tired of crying.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: You did cry?
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Yes. This year they had like little boxes of St.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Jude Hospital napkins on your table just because they know
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: they're going to make your ass cry all fucking weekend.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: but you know the research that the hospital is doing
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: is a good thing I have my reservations about some
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: stuff but for the most part cancer exists and we
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: need people around the clock trying to figure out all
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: these different diseases man so you can cure kids at
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: least you know all these kids seem like they be
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: 100 years old like the way they talk you would
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: think they're way older than they actually are it's crazy.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Well maybe they soul is older That's what I be thinking.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I feel like that, that is the spiritual side of,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: of that thing. I do feel like they might be
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: older spirits. Yep.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: So you guys, it is the first day of black
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: history month. And you know, every year we're going to
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: do a baddie who talks back to celebrate our female
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: black history. And I, you know, I was thinking about
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: it and I was like, who should we start this
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: year off with? And who did, who better? than Coretta
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Scott King. Since everybody want a Coretta, I need y'all
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: to know some of the things about her, you know,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: why she was so special. She wasn't just Martin Luther
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: King's wife. She had accolades and things that she did
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: on her own. She took an early stand on the
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Vietnam War just after Dr. King was killed. So weeks
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: after he was killed, she was doing a speech about
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: an unpopular opinion at the time. So she was by
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: herself saying that this war is wrong. and calling on
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Lyndon B. Johnson to bring the troops home. So she
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: was out there doing a speech only weeks after Martin
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: Luther King had been murdered. She also is the reason
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: why there's an MLK Day altogether. She started the King Center,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: and she called for nationwide celebrations in support of Martin
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Luther King, and states began to pass their bills making
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: King's birthday a national holiday. And it took a year
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: because John Conyers and Edwards Brooks from Massachusetts, Republicans, they're
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: introduced to Bill to honor him, but it wasn't recognized
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: until she started calling on all the states to start
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: recognizing her husband, period.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: So that's how Republicans did that.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: Interesting. Yes, they did. She went on to meet with
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Winnie Mandela after Nelson Mandela was in prison. She went
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: to share love with that woman in Soweto. and later
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: describes it as one of the greatest meaningful moments of
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: her life. And she took a stand on people living
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: with HIV and AIDS in the LGBT community long, long
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: before many others. So she was definitely one of the
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: first advocates for LGBTQ and HIV and AIDS survivors or
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: people living with that. So she has done many, many things.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Coretta Scott King, we salute you. You are a baddie
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: who talks back.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And happy Black History Month, I guess.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: You guess. Why you guess?
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: You know, it's year-round for me, child. But, you know,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: this is our time, February. Let me drop this M &
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: M before we get into stupid Internet news, messy, messy memes.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: So this is from Twitter. Twitter. I found this tweet.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: This girl says, a nigga in a Nike suit and
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: some Air Maxes ain't never ask me, what do you
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: bring to the table? That's a brunch boot nigga question.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: I agree.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: A brunch boot.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, them niggas with turtlenecks and blazers on. Finesse.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: What kind of shoes your nigga had on that time?
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Oh. Chelsea Boots.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Chelsea Brooks?
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That nigga ain't never asked me what I bring
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: to the table either. So there's that part. Because most
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: of the time he would have on an Adidas tracksuit.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: I like niggas who wear tracksuits. I like them Nike
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: tech suits. Because them dick prints be dick printing.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Yes. Give me some gray sweatpants.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: I love to buy, like, that's my gift for at
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Christmas time. Let me get you a Nike tag, baby.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Every time. Every time. Little essential hoodie and a Nike tag.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Some sneakers to match.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Child, let's get into this stupid internet news now. All right.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj ruined the whole fucking weekend. She ruined it. Okay, so.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Is she okay?
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: She's not okay. She's not okay. And she is the
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: hit dog that's been howling all fucking weekend after Meg
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Thee Stallion dropped her single, Hiss, on Friday at 12 midnight.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: And Meg Thee Stallion also went on a breakfast club,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: you know, via a telephone call. And she said, all
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: hit dogs gonna holler. I'm not talking about anybody in particular,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: but if you feel it's about you, bitch, it's about you.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: So she dropped the line in the song. saying these
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: bitches ain't mad at Megan, ain't mad at Megan's law.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: That's all she said. So that was enough for Nicki
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Minaj to go on a rant, a 72-hour rant. And
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: then also on Sunday, she dropped some Bigfoot diss that
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: she already had in a cut for Megan Thee Stallion.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: So that also indicates that bitch, you did have smoke
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: with that girl. How you already got a diss track ready?
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Because she was playing the shit on the live she
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: was on for 72 hours.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that shit was crazy. First of all, Megan's lost,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: so I had to go do some research on that
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: because the father of the child, a young child, a
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: 10-year-old baby named Megan had been murdered by her neighbor
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: who was a sex offender. And this is before sex
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: offenders were required to do it. And that's how the
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: law became. So he's offended by the song or, you know,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: him using her daughter. But I feel like You know,
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: it brings more awareness to the law, you know, instead
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: of him being upset. You know, that's just bringing more,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: you know, people to know what that law is exactly. Now, his,
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: I don't like the name because, I mean, are you
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: a snake?
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: I think snakes get a bad rep. If you look
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: up the actual, I guess, esoteric meaning of a snake,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: it's not a negative thing. So I don't know. I
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: don't think snakes are bad omens. So I don't look
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: at it that way.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: I don't like snakes. I've never liked snakes. It's always
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: been like a negative, you know, energy when it comes
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: to snakes, serpents and things like that. But I mean, OK,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: I get it. Hiss, it means like she's, you know,
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: that's what a snake does when they're going to attack. Right. So, OK,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: I get it. The song was good. I like it.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: It's good for the gym.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: But I definitely added this in my gym playlist today.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Why are they so mad?
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Why is this lady so mad?
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj is doing what I believe Lil' Kim did
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: to her when she came in the game. It's like, bitch,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: you got to pay homage because I've been the only
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: bitch here for a long time. Nicki Minaj, you mid-40s
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: at this point, these young girls is kicking the door
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: down to hip-hop. And ain't nothing you could do about it.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: You could still be the queen or whatever. That's, you know,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: the self-proclaimed queen and be the best rapper and drop
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: all the metaphors. But you can't deny Megastallion's talent.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Talent.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That girl, Monique Slaughter, she's the one I saw
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: a tweet from her suggesting that the family needs to
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: sue Megan. How are you going to sue her for
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: a law that exists? Yeah. Why did y'all let them
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: name that law after your child?
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they'll never win that one.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't even think they have a lawsuit. You know,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: it's just like another thing at this point. Yeah, yeah.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Another thing.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: But you know what really pissed me off? You know, because,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, rap beef has been happening since forever, so
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: that's fine. It's the lyrics about her dead mom that
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: was just below the belt for me. I felt like
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: it was a lot.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I would take Nicki Minaj's. If I
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: were Megan, I would take Nicki Minaj's suggestion to conjure
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: up my dead mother and sick her on that ass
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: is what the fuck I would be doing right now.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Because I saw a video with some little bitches dancing
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: in front of Megan Thee Stallion's mama grave. So this
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: is your hometown people doing this type of nasty shit
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: to you. because of some other rapper that they're choosing
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: a side way because people just don't like you from home.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: That's just what it is. Like, you cool as long
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: as you so kind on their level, but when you
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: get too far for them to touch, they want to
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: humble you and bring you back down to their level.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Dance on your mama grave.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like, just disgusting.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope somebody beat their ass.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that girl is under a spiritual attack, man. I
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: don't know what the hell, who the hell, Meg the Stallion,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: I'm pissed off on the other side of this thing, but...
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: She has been having all type of issues since she
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: came in the game. And that's when you know you
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: a whole threat.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: She said, I ain't playing with y'all pussy. So why
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: y'all coming for me?
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Favorite bar. Yeah.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: People wild, man.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: I don't like how they doing Megan Thee Stallion. And
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: you know, for Nicki Minaj to be a woman, I'm
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: still with Megan Thee Stallion on that Tory Lanez shit. Okay. No,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: she didn't. He didn't put a bullet in her foot,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: but it's proven. that she had bullet fragments in her foot.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: The whole thing is, why are you shooting at a woman?
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Whether or not she got directly hit or not, at
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: what point is this okay? So Nicki Minaj, you know,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: based on your track record and your family, people can
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: draw a lot of conclusions about who you are, because
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: you are surrounded by some shady-ass motherfucking people. Honestly, if
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: you can get mad at one little hit-or-quit-a-line, two-word shit
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: that Meg Thee Stallion said, you might need to do
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: some reflections. You need to do some reflecting. Excuse me.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: I went and looked up what he got in trouble for.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Her husband, Nicki Minaj. They were 16-year-olds.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he was 15 and 16 at the time. It's
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: not like he was a 40-year-old man dealing with a
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: young girl. So when people talk about him, they're acting
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: like this shit happened yesterday and he was 40 and
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: the girl was 15. They were both Children.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Kids. Yeah, they were both kids.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: And he served his time. And I'm not saying that
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: he did or didn't do this thing. Because....
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Listen.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Right. We all been young in school. Should be happening.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: People be doing stuff. And people regret stuff sometimes. I'm
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: not saying that's what it was. It could very well
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: be that. Because that's what he suggested.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Over time. Right.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: That's what I was looking at. I was like, damn,
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: I thought he... just did something to a child this
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: happened 30 years ago he was a kid himself yeah
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: he was a kid he's definitely being unfairly persecuted as
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: like a adult child molester when he was just a
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: kid himself but um this is a lesson for y'all
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: if y'all got teenage kids or kids that tell them
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: that the things they the decisions that they make very
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: young can still dictate how their life goes as an
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: adult so they have to start making wise decisions right
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: now absolutely Because the court of public opinion will fry
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: your ass forever for something you did when you was
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: 15 years old.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Right. And so Nikki is defending her husband because this
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: is a 30-year-old case. But your brother just got sentenced
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: within the last five years for getting a 14-year-old pregnant.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: So regardless of what, the head dog is hollering because
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: it's the truth. Next case. Right. All right. So there
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: is a woman going viral on social media and Twitter.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: And this this story is new. And Sam, you actually
• 18:10

  Speaker 1: But no, that's not her anyway. So Gail has been
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: married for 25 plus years to a man. And apparently
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: during the pandemic, she found out that he was cheating.

  Speaker 1: this is still this girl's old man. And there's Gail
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: and her husband are still going through a divorce. So
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Gail went through story time on TikTok child and I
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: hit Instagram and Telling a story. It's gone viral. Right.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Telling a story. So people are now suggesting that she
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: is trying to get on Real Housewives of Atlanta. And
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: this is why this is happening. I don't know how
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Twitter does. She does have a video with Kandi Burgess.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: So I don't know. Now, TikTok done started diving into
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: this bitch's life and basically saying, bitch, you keep him
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: how you get him. Because apparently he was married to
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: a woman 30 years ago at this point.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: When he was introduced to her so she's saying he
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: started out by lying saying that he was getting a
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: divorce which is why she even started dating him yeah
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: but she said a nigga was was fat and she
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: ain't really wasn't she wasn't really attracted to him but
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: he was nice right nice meaning he'd probably be breaking
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: bread because he's breaking.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: Bread on this new girl. He took good care of her. Yeah.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: He took good care of her. Let me tell you something.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you something. I would have looked the
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: other way, baby. I would have looked the other way
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: and got me a 38-year-old because he's 60-something. She look
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: like she's in her, you know, she's an older lady.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: I would have finally got me a little 35 to
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: 38 year old and been on trips with my nigga money,
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: taking my young nigga on trips. Like, yeah, you too can.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Play that game. And you know what pisses me off?
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Like I'm reading through the comments on Instagram and like men, like, oh,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: women get cheap. This is the random shit men like
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: to say, right? And this is why I'm always like
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: men leave the relationship. Women just do the paperwork. Right.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: So men really feel like, oh, you left. No matter
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: what caused you to leave, you're the one that filed
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: for divorce. You're the one that ultimately ended this relationship.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: But you've been left the relationship. He had been in
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: a relationship with this younger woman for years when she
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: found out. And then she was like, he was kind
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: of relieved about it. He was basically just.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: Saw her name up and down.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: I can imagine living a whole double fucking life. That
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: shit got to be exhausting. This nigga got to be
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: a Scorpio. Because when I tell y'all Scorpios have a
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: high capacity for bullshit, they will carry on two full-fledged
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: relationships like it ain't shit, bitch. Everybody... Pisces too. I
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: had a Pisces try to put me in a thruple.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Isn't that the word? A thruple. Try to move me
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: in all types. I'm like nah nigga if you in
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: that type of time you got to pay for me
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: to live someplace else. I am not trying to be
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: in a house with your bitch. I don't like women
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: and even if I did what make you think I'm
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: a like yo bitch. There's that part.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: She better than me. She wanted a divorce. She was
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: all her. I would have definitely had me a new nigga.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: the same flight you took to Paris I would have
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: been on the same flight on the same time just
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: a different day with somebody.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Else so the side chick her name is Sabrina Hutton
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: so you know she's still with this guy and the
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: video that's going viral them at the airport again is
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: because they've been separated so like bitch why you running
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: up on us now.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: I'm about to turn this into a check nigga.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: Exactly yeah man Exactly.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: But that's the scary part, though, like, because, you know,
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: when you're getting older as a woman and there's these
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: younger women out here, your man wants to, because she
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: looked like her, kind of. She looks like a younger
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: version of her.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: So it's like he trades you in for the newer model.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: That's real cheating. When a man go get a woman
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: that resembles you, like that's really cheating. I need you
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: to go get a different looking bitch. Like you have
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: a type. I'm the prototype.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: And you like cheating with people who resemble me. Like
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: that's some real life cheating.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: It's like getting a car and you driving the 2016
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: and now you want a 2023, a 24.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: And you know, it's so sad because women automatically start,
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: you know, questioning themselves. And it never has anything to
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: do with the woman. This is a choice this man
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: is making to cheat. Like, it was his choice. And
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: he did it for a very long time without you
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: finding out about it.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: And he was still like, I love you, baby. I
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: miss you. You couldn't go on this trip. And I
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: would have been like, I love you, baby, too. My
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: flight landed at 7. So I'll see you when I
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: get home. I hate you couldn't go on my trip
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: with me.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, man. I'm definitely a one-upper.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: I be fucking some 35-year-old fitness trainer.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Look, that's why y'all get these niggas something to deal with.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Ain't no way I'm going to be the only one crying.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: Broken hearts was made for two, bitch. When you cry,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: I cry, we cry together. That's what Lomo said. You
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: saw he's a nice-looking man now, so obviously she was
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: taking good care of him. She was like, I earned
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: everything I have. I was wiping his ass when he
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: was sick. Like, obviously, he might have been sick probably
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: during COVID and shit. When he got better, he went
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: and took his bitch to Paris. Right.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: As soon as I get better, baby, we going away.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: I'm laughing. Sorry, Gail. Gail Lewis.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, man.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Twitter. This is one last little piece. Because remember, we
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: had an episode just recently about being a girl's girl.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: And if you're a habitual side bitch, you are not
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: a girl's girl. So, Sabrina tweeted... recently saying we are
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: black women with the fists different shades of black we
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: build we don't tear down other black women we have
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: felt the pain of being torn down and we have
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: decided that we will be deliberate about building each other
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: and then I can't even see what else this shit
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: fucking says but anyway that's a side bitch tweet I
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: hear that people don't even believe what they say.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Right, and then fucking that girl, man. For years and
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: years and years. But can you be like for, I
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: guess maybe she for all women except for that one. Right?
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: She for all black women except Gail.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Shame. Fuck bitches named Gail.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: That's how she feel.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Y'all, Rent-A-Center is now renting out Jordan shoes for $ 19.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: 99 a week.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: With a buy it now price tag of $ 525. How
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: do you feel about that, Tam?
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: Renison, they've been taking advantage of poor people for 40 years.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: God damn it. It's so sad because there's a black
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: mom or a black dad who wants to give their
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: kids what the other kids have. And the kids love
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: the Jordan sneakers. And they're going to do it. And
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: they're going to get raped. I mean... You don't never
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: pay a right price for any of that shit at Rent-A-Center, right?

  Speaker 2: You get a couch. Your couch be $ 7, 000 for a
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: little seat after you finish painting it off.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: So y'all know that when you do Rent-A-Center, the buy now,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: pay later thing, that interest adds up. So you could
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: do the buy now for these sneakers for $ 525. But
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: if you do the monthly payment of the weekly payment
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: of $ 19. 99 a week.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: You'll end up spending $ 1, 050 for a pair of Jordans.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: $ 1, 000. Yes. Oh, Lord, have mercy. And then somebody going
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: to do it because they just want to give their
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: baby some shoes.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: I don't think nobody buying them motherfucking J's from Rent-A-Center.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: I don't even trust them.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: I promise you. I promise you somebody. Yeah, I don't
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: even know if them Jordans is real.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that Jordan probably got like a little bubble belly
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: on him.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Doing a split in the air Jordan didn't do that.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Like who is that.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Don't do that guys just give him some new balance
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: or something.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Alright y'all listen when we get back from this break
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I want to talk about something I had a lot
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: of good conversation this weekend and I realized there's two
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: type of people in this world there's the blockers and
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: the non-blockers.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: And I'm a blocker extraordinaire.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: We'll be back after this break. All right, so we back. Y'all,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: I want to talk about the psychology of blocking people.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Y'all heard Tammy said she was a blocking extraordinaire. Our
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: producer Taylor, make fun size T, she said she's a
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: The queen of blocking. So people brag about how many
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: people they block and how quick they block. And I
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: feel like it's a power trip, personally. That's how I
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: feel about blocking people. So after some conversations this weekend,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: one girl said she got her fucking mama blocked. And
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: she done blocked her daddy before. So have you ever
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: blocked your family members, Tammy, in the midst of being
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: a person who specializes in blocking?
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: Bitch. I've never blocked any of my family.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Where the hell a bitch came from? Bitch. That's how
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: you feel when you got to block somebody?
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: Typically, I'm in bitch mode when I'm blocking somebody. Like, bitch.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Bitch.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: Hit that block.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Bitch.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: So motherfucking hard. Pussy asshole. I never blocked any of
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: my family members. No matter how mad I've gotten at them.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Or I never even blocked women. It just be niggas
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: that get blocked, honestly. I can't think of one woman
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: I've ever blocked. Just men get blocked on my side.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: I will block a nigga. It'll be bubbles coming across
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: the screen, which mean they typing. Block, bitch. You'll never
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: send that message to me, hoe. So I'll block them
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: like that. But that's it.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never blocked, like, I would never block my
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: family member because, I mean, I would feel horrible if
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: something were to happen and they couldn't reach out to me, right?
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: So I would never block family. Niggas, I have definitely,
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: definitely blocked men. My ex in particular, I had to
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: wait for that nigga to message me from his 180,000
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Instagram pages so that I can block every single one
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: of them. And still to this day, I feel like
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: somebody messaging me and I feel like it's him. My
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: intuition says it's him fucking with me still on the internet.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I might be tripping. I might just
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: be shell shocked a little bit, but some people are
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: deserving of being blocked. I feel like if you in
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: a relationship though with somebody and you don't plan on
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: breaking up with that person I don't think it's okay
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: to block I feel like it's abusive to block your
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: significant other if you plan on unblocking them.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah It is. It is abusive if you just blocking
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: them so they can't communicate with you and then unblocking
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: when you're ready to communicate is foul.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fucked up. So I feel like that's when
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: it becomes like a power trip. You know what I'm saying?
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: I have. I have. I ain't going to even front though.
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: I have blocked the nigga and then unblocked him so
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: I can say, ain't another thing, motherfucker. And then I
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: send what I'm saying and then block him again.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Now, I've definitely blocked somebody in the midst of them responding.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: That's my favorite. Especially random weirdos on the internet. Like,
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: if they be done sending some whack shit, I'm going
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: to send some shit back. And you can see when
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: they're responding. And you just hit block while they're responding.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: I like that.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: I love that.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: I block strangers all day long. But people I love,
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: even if we trying to work through some shit, I
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: don't really want to block you. I know sometimes women, like,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: we want to see that he trying to get in
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: contact with us. Right? If I block you, yeah, the
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: only way you're going to get in contact with me
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: is via Cash App. PayPal. You can send your message
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: in the subject title. Right. And I don't take no
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: motherfucking dollars neither.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: I done unblocked a nigga after he came in bed
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: for me to unblock him. Come on, unblock me. Unblock me, man.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: I've taken him off the block list. But eventually they
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: end up right back the fuck there.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: How would you feel if you unblocked somebody only to
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: find out that they have you now blocked? What?
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: I'm confused.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: You blocked me because nobody blocks you, right? That's why
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: you're confused? You've never been blocked before?
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: I've never been blocked.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Are you above block reproach?
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: You know, I have been blocked by one person that
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: I know. I'm not sure about, you know, who else.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: It might be some other people, but guess what? I
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: didn't know because I didn't want to talk to your
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: motherfucking ass anyway, you know?
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: That part, okay? I got one bitch. Matter of fact,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: I got one person that got me blocked, which is
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: an ex-best friend of mine, which I don't know why
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: you got me blocked. I'm not even checking for your life.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: I didn't realize she had me blocked until maybe two
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: years after we stopped speaking. Somebody sent me a link
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: to her page without really explaining what it was, and
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: I clicked on the link, and... I'm like, what is this?
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Because I guess I'm blocked from whatever it is that
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: you're sending me because I can't see the person's page.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: But apparently it was her fucking crusty ass girl.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: Hey.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: And I have been blocked by men's girlfriends. Do you
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: have any guys that you're blocked, but he isn't the
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: one who actually did it? It's like whoever the girlfriend is,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: some random person. I had a white lady block me
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: about a nigga one time. I met this nigga at
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: the NTB, National Tire and Battery. I was getting an
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: oil change. And we just was Instagram friends, like instantly,
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: like just chatting on Instagram every day for about a year.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: And I had said something to him about having that
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: white girlfriend. Like all of a sudden now he got
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: a girlfriend, right? And it's a white girl. His baby
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: mama was a white girl too. So I knew he
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: was into white women. So I was just fucking with
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: him about now having another white girl. I'm like, damn,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: you done left the other white girl? You had a
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: baby with this white girl and you left her for
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: this older white lady? So apparently the bitch saw the messages.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: The wife saw the messages. And I didn't realize who
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: the fucking, not wife, but now new girlfriend. I didn't
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: realize who her man was because she messaged me from
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: her page. I didn't realize who the fuck she was
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: talking about. But then I tried to go like message
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: him like, hey, your bitch messaging me on Instagram and
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: I was blocked. I've definitely gotten blocked from people from
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: the woman.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Or she made that nigga block you.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: That part. So then, yeah, I got blocked. But I
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: wasn't trying to get him or nothing like that.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think I can't think of a time
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: where I got blocked. Except for that one girl. we
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: were friends for a long time and we got into
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: it and I threatened her I told you that story
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: I ain't gonna.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: Tell the world the listeners ain't heard it what happened
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: just summarize it.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Okay so my friend she was my friend.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: And how long was she your friend.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: We started we became friends in the first grade we're
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: adults by this time right she's living in Atlanta. I
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: came to spend the weekend because I was moving to
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Atlanta and I was like going on like interviews for jobs.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: And before I came, she was letting me know that
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: her money was fucked up. So she wasn't going to
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: be able to do anything. And at that time I
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: was dealing with somebody who had a lot of money.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: So I was like, my money, your money, no worries.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: We going to do all the things, bought her clothes,
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: got her some bundles, did her hair. Like Bought us food. Like,
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: I really, you know, I'm showing love. I'm staying at
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: her house. It's all good. We friends. She had some
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: dude coming over. She had money for weed, so she
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: had bought her some weed. And I'm not smoking because
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: I'm obviously trying to get employed, so I'm not partaking.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: And she comes in the room and asks me, can
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: I buy her some cigars? And this dude was on
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: the way to come smoke with her. And I was like, well,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: why don't you ask old buddy to get it? He
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: on the way here, then. She's like, I don't want
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: to ask him for nothing.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: What does that mean?
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: But you want to ask me? You want to ask me?
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: I done did all this shit. I done spent a
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: lot on you at this point. So old buddy comes over,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: and I go out in the kitchen, and she says
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: something like, damn, I ain't got no guards. I was like, oh,
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: can you stop and grab some? Can you go run
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: and grab some guards? And he was like, yeah, and left.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: And then she got so mad at me that I
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: did that. She was like, I told you I didn't
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: want to ask him for nothing. I was like, you
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: didn't ask him.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: I did.
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: I asked him.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: For you, bitch.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: So then they smoked. They did whatever they did. I
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: was like in another room. And then it was like
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: 11 o'clock at night. She comes to the room and
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: is like, I'm about to leave. So what you about
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: to do? Like basically, I got to get out of
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: her house.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: Yo.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: And it was pouring rain. And I live three hours away.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: So Like, we got into a screw match. I left
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: her house or whatever. But I told her all the
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: money that I spent on her this weekend, I'm going
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: to need it back in full. I was going to
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: beat her ass.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: And she blocked you.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: She sent me a cashier's check for like $ 600 or
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: something like that. And then blocked me.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Well, that's fair. Bitch, run me my money first, though.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: I guess it's a fair blocking but girl she should
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: be embarrassed like how you letting this man have access
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: to your pussy you can't get a 99 cent pack
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: of blunts from him you supplying the weed and coochie
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: and probably the condoms too or maybe you letting this
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: nigga fuck you raw that you can't ask for a
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: pack of blunts.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: And I fed you I'm the one who fed you
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: that night I'm the one who like I did all
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: these things and you gonna put me out in the
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: rain because I asked a nigga for a cigar for
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: you I ain't even smart with y'all. You know, like, bruh. Girl,
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: fuck you.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: It still fuck you to this day, too.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: Look, that's how I feel about anybody who I used
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: to be friends with. Fuck y'all people, man. Just goddamn weirdos.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: My ex-homegirl who got me blocked, it's just so weird.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Nobody's checking for your life, ma'am. Mind you, my page
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: is open because I don't got nothing to hide. I
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: want you to see me. There's that part. And knowing
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: her mentally, like her mental, I know she's looking. I'm
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: not going to block you. You got me blocked. Oh, wow.
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: You probably lurking on my shit. Right. Anyway, there has
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: to be like some type of psychology behind blockers. I
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: actually found an article on psychmechanics.com. It's the psychology of
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: blocking and unblocking. It says human are a social species.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Among the most profound human needs are the need to
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: belong and feel included. This is like blocking people on
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: social media. I feel like strangers should get blocked if
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: you harass me. Like, that's the only repercussion we kind
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: of got. It's just to block your ass. Cuss you
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: out and block you. It says blocking someone on your
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: phone is a modern form of social exclusion. It's a
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: way of communicating to the blocked person. I don't want
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: you in my life. I don't want anything to do
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: with you. Getting blocked by someone you care about can
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: be very hurtful and humiliating. It can make the one depressed.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: It can make the one, maybe it meant someone. It
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: can make someone feel depressed and lose their self-worth. Social
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: exclusion is painful. Why would you want to block someone?
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: The answer is simple. They're causing you pain. So in
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: a relationship, if you're not planning on leaving that person immediately,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: it's not okay to just be blocking and unblocking them.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Because if you block me,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking to you no more. I'm not waiting
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: for you to unblock me so I can finish where
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: we left off. you're not going to be able to
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: reach me no more.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah it's fuck you and that's what I would expect
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: if I block you it should be fuck me after
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: that go go away get period so.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: They're inflicting harm on you so you want them out
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: of your life it's perfectly valid self-protective measure, everyone should
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: be able to choose the people they want in their lives.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: But again, like I said, it becomes abusive when you
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: blocking and then unblocking people. All people in your life
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: can be categorized into two categories, blocked and unblocked. People
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: you've blocked, you've blocked for a reason. They've caused you
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: inconvenience and pain. The people you've not blocked, you've chosen
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: to keep in your life. They add value to your life.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: Like many things in life, things aren't always black and white.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: There's gray areas. So somebody blocking you just because they
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: think that they are more special for some reason. Weirdo.
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: Weirdo behaviors. I guess that's the gray area, possibly. When
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: you're unsure whether or not to keep a person in
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: your life, you may keep blocking and unblocking them. Your
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: confused actions are a reflection of your confused mind. Now,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: a variety of situations can lead to this type of indecision.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: Let's go over some of them. Blocking and unblocking an
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: acquaintance slash friend. You know someone you've added to your
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: contact list. You've talked to a couple or maybe a
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: few times, maybe your friends, but not that close, but
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: you're still unsure whether or not to deepen your relationship
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: with this person. The situation may lead to you excuse me,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: the situation may lead you to block and unblock them.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: So recently I had a conversation with my home girl
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: on Sunday because she said this guy, she, she's known him.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: But they just recently ran into each other again. And
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: she said she blocked him because she hasn't been on
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: a date with this guy yet. Even when she knew
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: him from before, like, you know, as somebody try to
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: holler at you, y'all chatted up a little bit and
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: then y'all kind of lose contact. So this is now
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: them reconnect. And she saw him at event at an event.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: So she said she went out to dinner with a homeboy.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: This person is actually a mutual friend of ours, too,
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: just our friend, right? So she was out to dinner
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: with him. So the guy then texts her and was like, hey,
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: what you got going on? Like, you out and about?
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: And she was like, yeah, I'm out to dinner with
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: a friend. So he then texts her and said, oh,
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: you on a date? So she texts back, no, LOL.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: I am out with a man, but it's my friend.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: We're at dinner. So the guy then says, oh, OK,
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: you want a date? So she said she kind of
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: stopped responding after that. But he continues to like badger
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: her about whether or not this male acquaintance is a
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: date or not. This is somebody who had never taken
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: her out on a date. Why are you overly concerned?
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: So and then this is a conversation via text. Exactly.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: So she just blocked him. She had the conversation with
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: another friend and her other friend didn't understand why she
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: blocked him. That is toxic behavior. And if somebody is
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: doing that to you in the beginning of a relationship,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: it's going to end the way it started. Right.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: That person has control issues. Super control.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: Like, who are you? Yeah.
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: Like, as soon as I give you my number, this
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: pussy on reserve. And if I were on a date,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: How could you, what could you do?
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: Like this ain't a date, but tomorrow there, I do
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: have a date. Right.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: So she blocked him. I feel like that is very appropriate.
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: I'm definitely not about to go back and forth with
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: you via text message. Like we don't have nothing going
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: on yet. Like I don't have.
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: Any real rapport for you acting the way you do.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: Red flag.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: He's a maniac. Big red flag. Let's see. Your partner.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: Blocking in a romantic relationship is usually done by partners
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: with an avoidant attachment style. In the past, I wouldn't
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: say I have avoidant attachment styles because I do like
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: to address shit head on even more so now more
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: than ever. But if I feel like I've said enough
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: and you still want to go on and on and
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: on and on and on about this thing and it's
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: causing me mental anguish, I just might block your ass.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: I just might block you until I'm in a better
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: headspace because you're violating my boundaries at this point because
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: you won't allow me time to regroup. Right. You're trying
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: to force me, force a response or force more conversation
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: out of me that just isn't there. I just don't
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: have the capacity for it right now. So yeah, I'm
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: gonna have to block you.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: Now, I done blocked the nigga that I knew that
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: if I kept allowing him access to me, he was
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: still going to get my pussy. Like, I had to, like,
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: block him, like.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: As soon as you hear his voice?
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like I had, like, soul ties and connections
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: to him that just was, like, irrefutable. And I was
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: just like, I got to block this nigga because I'm
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: never going to leave him alone if I don't. I
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: definitely had to block people like that.
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: He probably wasn't calling you. He was calling you a coochie.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: That's what that was about. The coochie blocked him.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: No, the coochie was like, no, let him stay. But
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: I had to block him. I had to block him.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: Get.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: You bad for me and my coochie.
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: It says when a relationship gets too close for them,
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: they use blocking as a deactivating strategy to meet their
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: space needs. However, not all avoidants do that. Some understand
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: that blocking is an extreme step. A friend once complained
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: that her boyfriend blocked her when he was at work
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: and then unblocked her when he had to talk to her.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: I told her, blocking is an extreme step. Yeah, you, what?
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: You will be single by the time you clock out, bitch. Right.
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: Pardon me?
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Blocking me out. You know what? I don't like what
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: a motherfucker have do not disturb on. That's like a
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: form of blocking in my head. I will call back.
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: You know, when it says, you know, the second time
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: it goes through. I'm calling twice, bitch. Who you playing with?
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: Well, I have mine set up that way. So then,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: you know, because you can keep it to where nobody's
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: calls can come in. But I do have a set
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: to where if somebody calls more than once, it'll allow
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: the call to come through. I'm assuming it might be important.
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: I'm going to call twice every time. I'm going to
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: call twice every time.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: I know people put their phone on do not disturb.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: My shit go on at 925 p.m. And I be
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: trying to stick to it.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: My sister, I was like, what if it's an emergency?
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: She's like, call 9-1-1.
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: Right, I can't do nothing for you, no way. Especially
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: if we ain't in the same vicinity. I'm not in
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: the same area. What can I do for you?
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but something.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: That's control. Okay, so let's go to ego. It says
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: more reasons. Ego. Blocking someone makes you feel powerful and
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: boost your ego. You feel like a king who exiled
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: a meek subject from his kingdom. People obsessed with power
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: and control may more likely... block others. When a relationship
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: starts to go south, blocking someone before they block you
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: is a way to get the upper hand on the
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: other person. I'll exclude them before they exclude me. That's
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: what I feel about blocking for real. It is an
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: ego trip. To be the self-proclaimed queen of blocking is
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: weirdo behavior to me, Taylor.
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: I definitely one-up you by blocking you while you type it.
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: I will. What was said? What was said?
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: But only to people who need it. I know that's
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: toxic as fuck, but only if it's deserving. I don't
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: be blocking when somebody pouring out their heart and I'm like,
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: that's it. I don't want to hear anymore.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: So this other article actually says, power trip is the
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: psychological blocking of someone about your ego. And I agree.
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: It says delete and block. That's the first piece of
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: advice given when you need to move on. But what
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: is the psychology of blocking someone? What does it achieve?
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: How long is your block list right now? I just
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: got one person.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: As long as I am tall. My shit as long
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: as I am tall. It's people, I don't even know
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: who the fuck number it is on that list. There's
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: so many numbers on that list. Like, I don't even
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: know who this is, but whoever it is, good riddance, motherfucker.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: Y'all, tell me to give a nigga her number and
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: block it immediately. That is so fucking weird. Like, why
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: you even give him the number? You don't want no problems?
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: Because sometimes niggas be scary. Yeah, like, if I give
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: you a nigga, a man my number and I don't
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: want to talk to him, it's because I'm intimidated. And
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, this nigga, he could hit me. I
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: feel like he's violent. Let me just go ahead and,
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: you know, oblige, give him the number. And then when
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: I walk away, blah. Some of these niggas be scary.
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but he still got the number. Like he could
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: still reach out to you if he was persistent enough.
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: He could still figure out how to ring that phone.
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: So I just rather not give you my number at all.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't be wanting to go back and forth
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: sometimes with the scary ones. And then I used to
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: give them a fake number, but then they'll call or
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: dial you right then. It's like, oh, shit.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: Exactly. That's the way. How do men not think that
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: that type of shit is weird?
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: Yes. It's crazy. One of my friends.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: Why y'all think that's normal?
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: Fourth of July, we was in a grocery store. And
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: this guy tried to get her number. And she was
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: kind of rude to him. I will say, like, she
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: wasn't the nicest on how she let him down. She
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: was like, look at you and look at me. That's
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: what she told that nigga. And he punched her in
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: the face and broke her nose right there in the
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: Harris Teeter.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: Yes. Did y'all call the police?
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: Did he get arrested or he left the site?
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: He left out of the store.
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he got away. what did he look like for
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: her to say that? Nothing.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: He wasn't together. He was not together. She's a really
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: pretty girl, but it don't, it's not okay to be
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: nasty and rude to people, but that didn't warrant a
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: broken nose though. And ever since then, I was like,
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: I'm just going to be nice.
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, man. Cause the male ego is very fragile. The
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: thing is, is that you have to know your hollow level.
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: Why did you think you can roll on me? You
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: saw me. You see me. And you see her saying
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: that to him. Puts shit into perspective so much so
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: he have shit to say. That bitch, that nigga was like,
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: is OJT on the job training for this bitch right now?
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: In the middle of Harris Teeter.
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: That's terrible. In the middle of the grocery store on
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: 4th of July.
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would have ran to the car and I
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: probably would be in prison right now.
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: For killing that nigga.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Yes. You're not about to hit me for no fucking reason.
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: She was in so much shock. I mean, blood pouring
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: from her face. She's like, you know, like, I just
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: got hit. Like, for real.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: You obviously abused women also. You out here trying to
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: find new victims. And she saw him for exactly who
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: he was. Mm-hmm. Obviously. Exactly. Because why are you behaving
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: like that? Trash. He was trash. So she, I mean,
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: regardless of what, I feel like she had to take
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: a punch for it. But I don't know. Maybe to
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: save another woman's life. I don't know. Somehow. Well, you didn't.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: You ain't try to jump on him?
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: I was stuck.
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: Everybody was like.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: And now I'm just trying to help her.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I would have fucked around and got hit with my friend, man,
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: because I'm trying to hit him. I'm trying to do
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: something to him. I'm trying to do something to him.
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: He punched her and got up out of there.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: And both of us was just standing there looking at
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: her like, what the fuck just happened? It just happened
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: too fast.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: All right. So this article says the block action is
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: extremely powerful. It doesn't give anyone an explanation. It leaves
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: unresolved business. And what if you happen to see them
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: on the streets afterward? Awkward, right? So, yeah, when I
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: don't feel like I guess not for me, but I
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: feel like that's another reason why people block. They don't
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: want to explain themselves. They don't want to have to
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: even fix what the actual issue is. They just block.
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: So they don't have to deal with it. So it's
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: also a form of escapism as well, because, I mean,
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: you can't deal with confrontation at all. Like I said earlier, like,
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: I'll have the conversations with one. So I feel like
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: I've talked enough. And, you know, a lot of times
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: men will act like they don't understand what the fuck
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: you're saying. You know, you feel like you're going crazy
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: because you've been talking in circles saying the same shit
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: over and over again. And he acting like, what? Like,
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: what you mean?
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: I'm focusing on one small part of what you're saying.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: Block. Block. Um... Okay, and it says it's blocking about ego.
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: The whole blocking thing is a power trip, all about ego.
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: Surely there's a better way to handle personal issues than
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: simply blocking them from your cyber life and expecting that
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: to be it. Now, there is one situation for which
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: blocking is perfect. If someone is harassing you, causing you
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: pain and upset, or they won't leave you alone, in
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: that case, go ahead and block all you like. The
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: psychology of blocking in this case gives you the power back.
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: It allows you a sense of relief and peace of
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: mind and stops your days from being ruined as a
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: result of messages and unwanted posts on social media feeds.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: So this is regards to social media.
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: Do you have like stalkers? I couldn't say that word.
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: Stalkers on social media?
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: Who people judge us. I try to be.
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: I.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: Have a few people blocked who will send some really
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: weird shit. So no. I don't think I have any
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: right now and I try to not create any. Sometimes
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: it's impossible because a lot of people be, they be,
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: they create shit about you in their minds and there's
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: nothing you can do about it. Bruh.
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: Bruh. I got about three different niggas that be in
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: my DMs saying crazy shit. And I be, like, I
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: be back and forth about should I block them or
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: should I be able to watch where these motherfuckers at?
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: You know? I be back and forth about which one
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: I should be. Because niggas literally be in there talking
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: to they self. Listen, if you messaging somebody and they
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: ain't never said nothing back and you continue to have conversation,
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: you might need to seek mental care. Like seriously, why
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: are you continuing to talk to yourself in somebody's DMs?
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: That's wild.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: And even in real life, I occasionally run into those
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: type of people. I'll say it happens to me like
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: once every two years. You fuck around and give your
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: phone number to a dude and it's like he's calling
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: you back before you can call him back. Like y'all
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: have had a conversation. You say, hey, let me hit
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: you back. And they're calling you back within 30 minutes
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: or so before you can even call them back. Red flag.
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: That type of shit. Or texting you day after day
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: after day after day after day when you're not responding
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: to them. And they continue to text every single day
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: talking to themselves in your DMs. Or via text. I
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: meet people like that. And that is a mental health issues.
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what it's called, cycle, whatever it is.
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: But yeah, that's a problem. It says, yes, you might
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: feel a sense of relief if they've been a real
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: nuisance in your life. And other means haven't worked. But overall,
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: it's a dead end, a cutoff point. It makes you
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: feel like you found the ultimate solution. The problem is
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: you haven't really, have you? Let's assume this person is
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: local to you. The chances of you bumping into one
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: another at some stage are pretty high. What will you
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: say to them? If you do, will you say anything
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: at all? No, if I blocked you, I'm not saying
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: nothing to you. If I see you in public, like
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: that's so weird.
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: Right. I'm like, you never existed. Yeah.
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: Like now you're just some nigga that I used to know.
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: That's why I blocked you.
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: Um, I don't even, I'm sorry to, who is this man?
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry to this man, Kiki Palmer voice. I don't
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: even know who you are, sir.
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: I've never seen this man a day in my life.
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: I be wanting people to know I'm ignoring them. See,
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: when you block somebody and they hitting you up, you
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: don't know if they're hitting you up or not. And
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: they don't know whether or not you're getting the messages.
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: But if you're not getting like a little bounce back,
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: you know you're not blocked. And you know I'm seeing
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: your messages. So you know that I'm consciously ignoring ignoring
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: your monkey ass. That feeds my ego. Knowing that you
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: know that I don't fuck with you. I'm not going
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: to block you.
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: That's definitely a huge ego. I want to eliminate. I
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: don't even want to see any inkling of your existence anymore. Bye-bye.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: Bye-bye. Block master. I don't like blocking. Don't block me, bitch.
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: I'm coming to your motherfucking house.
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: I don't... I don't block women. I never felt the
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: need to block a woman.
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: I think women just have a little bit more emotional intelligence.
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: We be having to block men because they really be
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: losing it. I'm pretty sure some men who... We don't
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: know women how men know them. So I wouldn't have
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: a reason to block a woman. I'm not interested in
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: women in that way.
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: Taylor says blocking is energy protection.
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: So.
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: And I concur.
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: I guess.
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: Every time. I got to protect my energy from these
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: energy ciphers.
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Hit. So one last piece of this conversation. This
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: is the difference between ghosting and blocking. It's worth mentioning
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: that ghosting and blocking are two different things. When you
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: ghost someone, you might still be friends with them and
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: they can probably still see the activity on your feeds,
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: but You cut off contact with them by simply not speaking.
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: You become a virtual ghost. In our opinion, ghosting is
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: worse than blocking. It's like leaving a carrot dangling in
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: the air. You're giving them something but not going the
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: whole way. So maybe I'm a ghoster. You're also literally
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: ignoring messages, and that is literally the worst. Being ghosted
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: makes you furious. It's the epitome of rudeness. Of course,
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: blocking is literally ending all contact. and visibility of any
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: activity you post online, the lot. You're invisible to them,
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: at least in online world. The difference is that, the
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: difference in, excuse me, the difference is that the psychology
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: of blocking someone is a literal full stop. So maybe
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: I need to block completely then. So motherfuckers don't get
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: shit twisted. Right.
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: Because you be wanting them to know you see. I
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: don't want to see you. I don't want to see
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: you anymore. I don't want to see you anymore.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: I just want you to know I'm cool, man. Like,
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: just go away. Why are you forcing me to have
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: to take an extra action? If I'm already not fucking
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: with you, like, why can't you take that as a hint?
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: Some people can't take the hint. So you got to
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: go ahead and hint their ass to the block list.
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: I block so many people, it'd be a motherfucker. I'd
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: be trying to call. I'd be like, oh, I got
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: the nigga blocked.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: You see? Abuse.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: Y'all ain't heard from him in a long time.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: Oh wait, he blocked. Look, Taylor talk about me too.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: Y'all abusive. Y'all abusive. That's ego shit. Why are you
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: trying to reach out to somebody who you blocked?
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: Whatever I was mad about, I guess I'm over it
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: at this point. Or I done forgot some shit I
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: was mad about that got a nigga blocked.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: So you gonna call him like, why block you? What
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: happened last time? Like, what you did?
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: Why we ain't speaking a long time? And then if
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: I'm reminded, I'd be like, oh, that's right. Block that
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: bitch again.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: I had one of my homeboys said a girl hit
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: him up like, what's up? Why you gonna be hitting
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: me up? And he was like, bitch, you blocked me. Like,
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: she was checking with him on social media, but he
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: was blocked on the phone.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: Right. That's me. That's me.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: And then re-blocked the nigga once he wasn't saying what
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: she wanted. Mm-hmm. Y'all got to do better, man. Anyway,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: are y'all blockers? I want to hear from the listeners.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: Do y'all just be blocking people? That's y'all's go-to? Yep.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: Real quick. Bitch, bye. I'm going to work on not
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: just blocking people when I'm mad, like, It got to
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: be worth it because I'll block and unblock when I'm
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: over it. But just men. Sorry to you, fellas. God
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: ain't through with me yet.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: I would suggest if you have a little bit of
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: care about the person that you're blocking, you would try
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: communication first. Try that first. And if you, there's no resolution,
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: there's no resolve. If you block them, do not unblock
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: them That should be a permanent decision when you block somebody.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: It should not be used as a timeout for adult people.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: Shit me.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: Y'all childish. Y'all fucking childish as hell. Y'all don't value relationships.

• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: little break.

  Speaker 1: I'm not doing that if I'm still fucking with you.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: If I'm gonna be thinking about your ass later on. Like.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: I'm not doing it.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm going to be doing about

  Speaker 2: your ass later on. In that moment, you dead.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, wait, wait, wait. This is people struggling. Is there

  Speaker 1: the listeners. Does anybody feel some type of way out
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: there about having been blocked? Oh, yeah. Let us know
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: what celebrities got y'all blocked. I got a few people
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: blocked on We Talk Back.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: Because you done said some shit.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: It was maybe an episode when we was on somebody
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: else's show. Anyway, it was a clip that we put
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: up and the men was just going ham. Yeah. I
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: think the dating one. Dating while not having money. We
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: were on Taylor's show. Matter of fact, Empty Thoughts. We
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: was on Empty Thoughts and niggas was mad about the conversation. Listen,
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: I'm not arguing with y'all cabada-bass bitches, nigga bitches. I'm
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: blocking your ass. I'm blocking you.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: I will argue with you. When I'm bored.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: On Fridays. Fridays I'll argue with you. Anybody want to
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: fucking argue, hit me up on Fridays. I got a
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: little bit more time on Friday. A nigga asked me
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: last week, cause he commented on some shit. Like I
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: just comment on something and why I got to get
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: into arguments with men. I'm commenting my single comment. Now
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: here you are commenting on my comment and starting an
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: argument with me. And well, really not starting it cause
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: I didn't have to engage, but I did. And he
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: was like, it's Saturday. You should get it. I said,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: actually it's fucking Friday and I got time. So if
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: y'all want to argue, hit me up on Fridays between
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: 12 and five.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: It just really depends on what I got going on.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: Am I on my period? If I'm on my period,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: you might get a little fight out of me just
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: because it's fun. But for the most part, nah, I'm cool.
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: Last, last to chop all of this up. If it
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: helps your mental health to block somebody, then I guess
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: it's okay. I, again, I would suggest trying to communicate
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: if you actually care about this person. as opposed to
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: using the block method as a form of timeout abuse.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: As for me, Insomnia Long, block these niggas out your
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: life until you feel like fucking with.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: Them again, goddamn. And I hope when you do try
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: to hit that nigga up that you like, that you're blocked.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: Why would you hope that for me?
• 1:05:00
