- 0:56Speaker 1: or do something early morning, or just in general, I
- 0:59Speaker 1: don't like being late because then everything else that comes
- 1:02Speaker 1: after your arrival feels rushed. But I've started this practice
- 1:06Speaker 1: where when I am feeling rushed in the morning, because
- 1:09Speaker 1: for me, I feel like when I do feel rushed,
- 1:12Speaker 1: it spills over into my performance. I begin like refocusing
- 1:17Speaker 1: my day and this past Sunday, I was watching my
- 1:21Speaker 1: church service shout out to Us. He's a greatness in Delaware,
- 1:24Speaker 1: and I was watching them on YouTube passa Jerome Lewis,
- 1:27Speaker 1: and he was talking just about just kind of like

- 1:36Speaker 1: different attacks and different things come your way because you're
- 1:39Speaker 1: destined to do something great or you know, there's this
- 1:41Speaker 1: like calling or conversation on your life and on your talent.
- 1:46Speaker 1: Just how important being wrapped up in the faith and
- 1:48Speaker 1: wrapped up in praise and worship are and how what
- 1:53Speaker 1: you have conversations about and like your mental just how
- 1:56Speaker 1: you think, how all of that is so along with
- 1:58Speaker 1: prayer and knowing how to talk and praise and worship. Right,
- 2:04Speaker 1: So this morning I was always having one of them
- 2:06Speaker 1: like h rush, run, jump through hoops, get there on time.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Like woke up so late, just exhausted from the travel day,
- 2:15Speaker 1: and I was like, I want to take back my
- 2:18Speaker 1: day to day, like right like in the moment, I
- 2:21Speaker 1: like stopped and I'm like, nope, we're not doing this.
- 2:24Speaker 1: I put on some praise and worship. I begin just
- 2:26Speaker 1: thinking God, and I do and I you know, I
- 2:28Speaker 1: try to make that a habit every day I wake up,
- 2:30Speaker 1: especially weekdays when I'm about to head into work, just
- 2:34Speaker 1: because the days seem to just move so fast. I
- 2:38Speaker 1: try and thank God for waking me up. Thank God
- 2:40Speaker 1: for waking up you know, my family, to people I love,
- 2:42Speaker 1: you know, all that stuff. Just have a conversation with
- 2:44Speaker 1: him before I pick up my phone and get into
- 2:46Speaker 1: the latest. But today I was like mid like not
- 2:52Speaker 1: even I wasn't starting my day. The day was already started,
- 2:54Speaker 1: and I was like, nope, I got to quiet everything
- 2:56Speaker 1: around me right now, and I just need to worship
- 2:58Speaker 1: like real quick. So I put on and I have
- 3:01Speaker 1: a playlist that I use. I just played around the
- 3:05Speaker 1: house Sundays, whatever day I need some on praise and worship.
- 3:09Speaker 3: And I went to the playlist. It's called God Is Good.
- 3:12Speaker 1: If you search BRONC or grind and God is Good
- 3:13Speaker 1: on Apple Music, you'll find the playlist. It's also listed
- 3:17Speaker 1: in the bio on my Instagram Lauren L Rosa l
- 3:19Speaker 1: O R E N l O R O s A.
- 3:23Speaker 1: But I put on Travis Green made Away and that
- 3:27Speaker 1: was just honestly the first song on the playlist. I
- 3:29Speaker 1: didn't like, think of that song and go play it
- 3:31Speaker 1: first song on the playlist.
- 3:32Speaker 3: I just hit play let.
- 3:34Speaker 1: The song go, calmed my day down, calmed myself down,
- 3:39Speaker 1: and just regain power and control back of my day
- 3:43Speaker 1: and had a great day.
- 3:46Speaker 3: And that was It was.
- 3:47Speaker 1: So powerful for me and so profound for me because
- 3:51Speaker 1: what I've realized in this phase of my life. I
- 3:54Speaker 1: was watching this interview with up Portia Williams and Angie
- 3:57Speaker 1: Martinez on Angie Martinez is in Life and she asks
- 4:01Speaker 1: Portia Williams, what season of your life is this? And
- 4:04Speaker 1: I like season like winter, spring, fall, like whatever. But
- 4:07Speaker 1: you know, Portia is at this point, she is a
- 4:11Speaker 1: reality TV show vet. She's been on reality TV for
- 4:15Speaker 1: at least twelve years now. So she's like, you know,
- 4:18Speaker 1: you have all these different seasons of Real Housewilves of
- 4:21Speaker 1: Atlanta that you've been a star on, but in your life,
- 4:25Speaker 1: what is your season right now? And she says, for her,
- 4:30Speaker 1: this season is like very direct. She does what she
- 4:33Speaker 1: wants to do, she doesn't do what she doesn't want
- 4:35Speaker 1: to do. She's very honest about things, and she expects
- 4:37Speaker 1: the same for me today after getting through because the
- 4:42Speaker 1: morning was a little you know, the oh, the things
- 4:46Speaker 1: was coming right, but after regaining my power back. This
- 4:50Speaker 1: season for me is a season of I was gonna say,
- 4:56Speaker 1: but God, because it is that it's so but God,
- 5:00Speaker 1: It's like you could just uh like I just wake
- 5:03Speaker 1: up every day and I'm like, God be doing it.
- 5:07Speaker 1: I guess He's literally performing miracles in real time in
- 5:11Speaker 1: my life and a life of people that I love.
- 5:13Speaker 1: But also I think that this season is a season
- 5:16Speaker 1: of reclaiming, in a season of prophesizing. And I don't
- 5:24Speaker 1: mean that I could speak tongues and all of that.
- 5:27Speaker 1: I don't know how to do all that. But I
- 5:28Speaker 1: remember almost like a year or so ago now when
- 5:32Speaker 1: I was able to go into church physically in person
- 5:36Speaker 1: more because I was living in Delaware. My pastor passage
- 5:39Speaker 1: around Lewis, you know, and I've been guest hosting with
- 5:42Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. They knew what I was working on
- 5:44Speaker 1: and what I was doing. He was very intentional about
- 5:48Speaker 1: praying over me. And when he prayed over me, I
- 5:51Speaker 1: remember one of the times he did. He said, God,
- 5:53Speaker 1: I want to protect her mind. I want you to
- 5:56Speaker 1: hold her mind in your hand. I want you to
- 5:58Speaker 1: walk with her mom and protect her mind, rehability, and
- 6:02Speaker 1: re establish her mind.
- 6:03Speaker 3: Whenever she may need it.
- 6:04Speaker 1: And things weren't like you know, it was like that
- 6:08Speaker 1: was like the beginning of all of this like this,
- 6:10Speaker 1: but God era right, so things were new then. And
- 6:15Speaker 1: this morning I remembered that, and I'm like, oh, this
- 6:18Speaker 1: is what he meant.
- 6:19Speaker 3: Like there are days that are just trying for no reason.
- 6:21Speaker 3: By the way, y'all ain't nothing going on at all.
- 6:24Speaker 1: It's just one little thing can throw your whole day off,
- 6:28Speaker 1: throw your whole energy off, you know, make you not
- 6:32Speaker 1: remember your intention and your faith walk and your praise walk.
- 6:35Speaker 1: And I am being so intentional about not forgetting, like
- 6:40Speaker 1: not forgetting who I am, why I am somewhere, and
- 6:44Speaker 1: just the control that I have over prophesizing great days,
- 6:48Speaker 1: over my life, prophesizing a manifesto what I want in
- 6:50Speaker 1: my life, executing to get there.
- 6:54Speaker 3: I'm not forgetting it. And I'm celebrating today.
- 6:57Speaker 1: I got my issue of Brown Style magazine, which is
- 7:01Speaker 1: a magazine that celebrates black women.
- 7:05Speaker 3: It's called Imbrownstyle dot com.
- 7:07Speaker 1: It's their online website, and their editor in chief is
- 7:11Speaker 1: a woman named Tweety Elote. I'm probably saying your name wrong, Tweety,
- 7:17Speaker 1: but her handle online is tweet tweety elote t w
- 7:22Speaker 1: e e t y e l I t ou And
- 7:28Speaker 1: she put together a Woman's History month Collector's Issue, and
- 7:32Speaker 1: I'm on the cover of this magazine. I received the
- 7:34Speaker 1: magazine in the meltday and I'm like, wow, Wow, the magazine.
- 7:41Speaker 1: The issue is all about one hundred women in media
- 7:44Speaker 1: you should know tips for building a brand you love,
- 7:47Speaker 1: and it's about soft living with the brown girl who's
- 7:50Speaker 1: always growing in. Let me tell y'all something, like I've
- 7:53Speaker 1: even had to prophesize soft living for myself because I
- 7:56Speaker 1: don't come from that, Like I don't come from just
- 7:59Speaker 1: being able to treat yourself when you want. Like granted
- 8:05Speaker 1: I had a very nice upbringing. I have never wanted
- 8:09Speaker 1: for anything, but like you know, we've always had to
- 8:12Speaker 1: do things knowing that there were responsibilities and things to
- 8:15Speaker 1: take care of that took precedent a lot over other things.
- 8:19Speaker 1: So now that I'm able to I'm experiencing things at
- 8:21Speaker 1: such a different level that I've never experienced before when
- 8:26Speaker 1: it comes to seeing just seeing things in the rooms
- 8:29Speaker 1: that I'm in and the people that I'm getting to
- 8:30Speaker 1: learn from, and you know, like I just h today
- 8:35Speaker 1: in this morning, which is one of those mornings where
- 8:37Speaker 1: I felt God talking to me, like, all right, now,
- 8:43Speaker 1: first of all, let's talk about your discipline, because you
- 8:45Speaker 1: said this week was the week you got back to
- 8:48Speaker 1: getting to work not even on time. I'm always trying
- 8:51Speaker 1: to be earlier than on time, right, and it helps
- 8:55Speaker 1: my morning when I do that, And that's not what
- 8:58Speaker 1: happened is morning, Lauren, So let's talk about it. But
- 9:01Speaker 1: while we're talking about it, reclaim the fact that you
- 9:03Speaker 1: were here, you were living, you're breathing, You are amazing,
- 9:07Speaker 1: and you were supposed to be here, girl. And then
- 9:10Speaker 1: I got this magazine and I'm like, I am supposed
- 9:12Speaker 1: to be here, So that was amazing. So look, if
- 9:15Speaker 1: anybody it's you know, going through days and just feeling
- 9:20Speaker 1: like you're literally just like getting through the day. I
- 9:23Speaker 1: had two months of feeling like I was so weird,
- 9:26Speaker 1: like I was just getting through the day, Like I
- 9:29Speaker 1: was so disconnected from my alignment and my purpose and
- 9:32Speaker 1: all of this. And I still don't know what that was, Like,
- 9:34Speaker 1: I still don't fully know what that wasn't what caused it,
- 9:38Speaker 1: but I know like leaning into faith in conversations with
- 9:42Speaker 1: God pulled me up out of it, like it is
- 9:45Speaker 1: like night and day like.
- 9:46Speaker 3: So I hope that helped, y'all. Now let's get on
- 9:52Speaker 3: into the latest.
- 9:53Speaker 1: So speaking of good news, y'all, jay Z is getting
- 9:58Speaker 1: back on stage.
- 10:00Speaker 3: Jay Z is getting back on stage. Jay Z is
- 10:04Speaker 3: getting back on stage.
- 10:07Speaker 1: So last year I went to the Roots Picnic in Philadelphia.
- 10:10Speaker 1: That is a picnic and celebration of and put on
- 10:14Speaker 1: by the Roots, And it's a huge picnic in Philadelphia,
- 10:19Speaker 1: more of like a festival concert in Philadelphia, but.
- 10:21Speaker 3: People travel all in for it. Jay Z is going
- 10:23Speaker 3: to be headlining the festival this year in May with
- 10:30Speaker 3: the Roots. Now.
- 10:33Speaker 1: A couple months ago on the Breakfast Club, I was
- 10:36Speaker 1: talking about the fact that jay Z had changed the
- 10:39Speaker 1: way his name was listed on streaming services. So if
- 10:43Speaker 1: you go and look at jay Z's name on streaming services,
- 10:46Speaker 1: I'm gonna go and make sure it's still there. He
- 10:48Speaker 1: had changed it to the jay Z this like, I mean,
- 10:53Speaker 1: it's still said jay Z, but it was literally spelt like,
- 10:55Speaker 1: oh yes, it's still there. It was literally it is
- 10:58Speaker 1: spelt like the way that jay Z was spelled on
- 11:02Speaker 1: the first Reasonable Doubt cover with the two little dots
- 11:05Speaker 1: over his why and the dash in between the Y
- 11:08Speaker 1: and the Z, and fans think that this is signaling
- 11:12Speaker 1: the fact that he may be coming with new music.
- 11:14Speaker 4: Now.
- 11:15Speaker 1: Then I told you guys that it was the thirty
- 11:18Speaker 1: year anniversary of Reasonable Doubt. That was not a cool incidence,
- 11:22Speaker 1: but I didn't know what was coming next. So then
- 11:24Speaker 1: after that, Jay Z dropped a website, a Reasonable Doubt
- 11:27Speaker 1: website where you are able to you know, buy collector's items.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Just all of these things, right, But for the first
- 11:35Speaker 1: time ever, they actually put Dead Presidents available for streaming.
- 11:41Speaker 1: So previously only Dead Presidents two was available for streaming,
- 11:46Speaker 1: but now you can listen to the original. The original
- 11:49Speaker 1: track features the famous the world is Yours sample, which
- 11:52Speaker 1: was released to streaming services. It actually happened in February,
- 11:56Speaker 1: and that's often referred to as Dead President's one because
- 11:59Speaker 1: I mean, the only one other one of the fans
- 12:00Speaker 1: can gintl streating was two. And all of this is
- 12:04Speaker 1: coinciding with the thirtieth anniversary of Reasonable Doubt was dropped
- 12:07Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety six, and that website where I'm telling
- 12:10Speaker 1: you guys about this merch so you could do vinyls
- 12:12Speaker 1: and like all these other things celebrating the thirty years
- 12:15Speaker 1: of reasonable doubt, it's jay Z thirty dot com so
- 12:18Speaker 1: now right and celebration of all of that, jay Z
- 12:23Speaker 1: decides to pop back out and get back outside. People
- 12:26Speaker 1: have been looking for him to perform for a while,
- 12:29Speaker 1: like people have been waiting to see, like if it
- 12:31Speaker 1: was going to be like I think a lot of
- 12:33Speaker 1: people thought his next performance was going to be like
- 12:34Speaker 1: a super Bowl announcement, and I don't.
- 12:39Speaker 3: Think we're going to.
- 12:40Speaker 1: I think the day that we get a jay Z
- 12:43Speaker 1: performing at the super Bowl announcement will be the It'll
- 12:46Speaker 1: probably be like his final goodbye to his NFL partnership,
- 12:50Speaker 1: like he will be done with doing all of that,
- 12:52Speaker 1: go out with a bang, which will be him performing.
- 12:54Speaker 3: At the super Bowl.
- 12:55Speaker 1: Right, but the Roots Picnic is happening, so this will
- 12:58Speaker 1: take place in Philly, the annual festival. The lineup actually
- 13:02Speaker 1: did not drop yet, but jay Z's performance is a
- 13:07Speaker 1: rare moment, like he don't just go anywhere, and that
- 13:12Speaker 1: also goes to show you, I mean, I don't know,
- 13:13Speaker 1: I feel like Made in America is not the same anyway.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Jay Z was like heavily and you know that was
- 13:19Speaker 1: his festival. At one point in Tom that's just not
- 13:23Speaker 1: it ain't there no more like it ain't even happening.
- 13:27Speaker 1: His last solo tour was twenty seventeen's four for For tour,
- 13:32Speaker 1: and he toured extensively, you know after that with Beyonce
- 13:37Speaker 1: on the Run to tour, and then you know, we
- 13:40Speaker 1: saw him pop up in support of Beyonce at the
- 13:43Speaker 1: Renaissance Tour. But yeah, I mean the boocket clearance dropped
- 13:48Speaker 1: as well. We've seen like, you know, a little small
- 13:53Speaker 1: old pop outs, but I don't remember when the last
- 13:56Speaker 1: time I saw jay Z do a dedicated date this big.
- 14:03Speaker 1: It's not his first time performing with the Roots, but
- 14:05Speaker 1: it will be history. The Roots actually were his backup
- 14:09Speaker 1: band during during his two thousand and one MTV unplug special,
- 14:14Speaker 1: which there are so many moments from that MTV Unplugged
- 14:18Speaker 1: that still go viral on social media, but you might
- 14:20Speaker 1: not know. I mean, depending on your age, you just
- 14:22Speaker 1: might not know that this MTV Unplugged because it was
- 14:25Speaker 1: a big moment for jay Z for the Roots, but
- 14:27Speaker 1: for MTV Unplugged as well too. And they also were
- 14:30Speaker 1: his backup band in two thousand and six when he
- 14:33Speaker 1: did the ten year anniversary of Reasonable Doubt. At Radio
- 14:36Speaker 1: City Music Hall in New York. And during that performance,
- 14:40Speaker 1: he had a orchestra of over sixty members which was
- 14:43Speaker 1: all directed by Questlove. So it's like it is full circle.
- 14:46Speaker 1: It is definitely full circle. So this year, and this
- 14:51Speaker 1: is why I mentioned the fact that I went to
- 14:52Speaker 1: the Roots Picnic a few years ago because not a
- 14:54Speaker 1: few years ago last year, because when I went last year,
- 14:58Speaker 1: it was so nasty outside, Like I mean, it was raining,
- 15:03Speaker 1: it was muddy, it was disgusting, like it just wasn't good.
- 15:10Speaker 1: They also had issues with like the grounds and just
- 15:13Speaker 1: like operation and production on the grounds, right, So we
- 15:17Speaker 1: were outside of the festival waiting for at least two.
- 15:21Speaker 3: Hours in the pouring down rain.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Like I was supposed to work with the Roots Festival
- 15:25Speaker 1: last year on some content and decided to just not
- 15:29Speaker 1: do the content and just show up and attend the
- 15:31Speaker 1: festival because I was so burnt out.
- 15:32Speaker 4: I was.
- 15:33Speaker 1: I was so new in the space that I was
- 15:34Speaker 1: saying yes to everything because I was just like, Okay,
- 15:37Speaker 1: if I don't take this now, it's out of mind.
- 15:40Speaker 1: And by the time the Roots Picnic came, I was
- 15:43Speaker 1: so burnt out. I didn't even have the energy to
- 15:47Speaker 1: show up and do the content piece that it basically
- 15:52Speaker 1: ended up becoming. We were told that we were want
- 15:53Speaker 1: to do one small thing and then it turned into
- 15:57Speaker 1: so much other stuff. So on top of being exhausted,
- 16:00Speaker 1: on top of knowing that it was gonna pour down
- 16:02Speaker 1: raining and just be muddy and nasty, I was like, no, y'all,
- 16:05Speaker 1: let me just come attend and just have a good time.
- 16:09Speaker 4: Do it, you know what I mean, do it as
- 16:10Speaker 4: I want to.
- 16:12Speaker 1: And we went and we tried to do that and
- 16:15Speaker 1: literally couldn't even get in the gate. I remember production
- 16:18Speaker 1: was trying to like find us and tell us situations
- 16:21Speaker 1: to go in.
- 16:22Speaker 4: It was just all over the place.
- 16:23Speaker 1: So they've had to actually move the venue to the
- 16:25Speaker 1: Roots Picnic. It's happening at a Belmont plateau. And you
- 16:31Speaker 1: know they've said too that they've like increased their production
- 16:35Speaker 1: and like different access points into the festival this year.
- 16:39Speaker 1: And look, the Roots Picnic has been successful and it
- 16:42Speaker 1: has been ongoing for years like forever, so they can
- 16:46Speaker 1: get it right.
- 16:47Speaker 4: But they don't have a choice. But they get it
- 16:49Speaker 4: right this time.
- 16:50Speaker 1: Jay Z is going to bring out so many people
- 16:54Speaker 1: they have no choice.
- 16:57Speaker 4: But to get it right.
- 17:00Speaker 1: The general manager of the picnic. His name is Sean g.
- 17:03Speaker 1: He is a person and he actually manages I just
- 17:05Speaker 1: recently met him. He manages Jill Scott as well. So
- 17:08Speaker 1: I think we're gonna probably see Jill Scott there, like
- 17:10Speaker 1: I'm almost for a certain we probably will because she
- 17:12Speaker 1: has new music out. She's about to go into our
- 17:14Speaker 1: social be working a set already, and he manages her already.
- 17:18Speaker 1: But he announced, uh, you know that there's.
- 17:22Speaker 4: Gonna just be.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Things are gonna be a little different this year. Things
- 17:25Speaker 1: are gonna be a whole lot different. So that taking
- 17:26Speaker 1: place May thirty, if for thirty firstent Philly.
- 17:28Speaker 4: So I will be there now.
- 17:32Speaker 1: In one place I won't be is in this group
- 17:35Speaker 1: chat with Amy from Love and Hip Hop Atlanta and
- 17:38Speaker 1: Dwight Howard any longer hopefully, And we've been talking a
- 17:43Speaker 1: bit about, you know, everything that happened with them because
- 17:46Speaker 1: Amy got online and claimed this while showing a huge,
- 17:50Speaker 1: clear plastic bag of cocaine and she cleaned with Dwhite Howard.
- 17:54Speaker 4: So let's take a listen to this audio from weeks
- 17:56Speaker 4: and I.
- 17:57Speaker 5: Try to tell everybody he needs some Helpers are twelve year.
- 18:00Speaker 3: Old son.
- 18:03Speaker 4: To cover for hilp his son to cover for him.

- 18:30Speaker 4: She is. She's a beautiful person from what I know
- 18:32Speaker 4: right and from who I've met.

- 18:41Speaker 1: newly filing for divorced situation with Dwight Howard, it's tough
- 18:44Speaker 1: to watch it. It's really tough to watch. There are so
- 18:47Speaker 1: many different claims of different things going on in their household,
- 18:51Speaker 1: everything from you know, domestic incidents to uh there were
- 18:55Speaker 1: like some alleged calls for suicide.
- 18:57Speaker 4: Claim Amy is claiming that the CPS.

- 19:06Speaker 4: of this.
- 19:06Speaker 1: Dawhite Howard officially retired from basketball, which a lot of
- 19:10Speaker 1: y'all are gonna be like I thought you already retired. Basically,
- 19:13Speaker 1: Basketball made a decision for him, like the game and
- 19:16Speaker 1: the teams made a.
- 19:17Speaker 4: Decision for him. But he officially retired in the midst
- 19:20Speaker 4: of all of this.
- 19:21Speaker 1: And the couple who were married on July eleven, twenty
- 19:25Speaker 1: twenty four, and had previously you know, went public with
- 19:29Speaker 1: their divorce in December of twenty twenty four, had tried
- 19:32Speaker 1: to go through a divorce previously, back in July twenty
- 19:35Speaker 1: twenty five that was filed by Amy, who was claiming that,
- 19:39Speaker 1: you know, that they couldn't be together.
- 19:42Speaker 4: It was six months after the wedding, and it was
- 19:47Speaker 4: just a lot going on. But here we are again.
- 19:50Speaker 1: There's now body cam footage that has been released from
- 19:54Speaker 1: the day that you know, Amy, or one of the
- 19:56Speaker 1: days that Amy alleged she had to call the police

- 20:02Speaker 1: we're looking at a body can video Amy called the
- 20:04Speaker 1: police to at home. This is you know, after she
- 20:06Speaker 1: alleged CPS came in and took to Dwight Howard's daughter,
- 20:09Speaker 1: who is her stepdaughter, and you're going back and forth
- 20:12Speaker 1: about the fact that he put her out of the house.
- 20:13Speaker 4: Let's take a listen to Amy's stolid Your wife wants
- 20:17Speaker 4: to get in the house and she can't because you

- 20:33Speaker 4: type of person. So tell me, so tell me. How
- 20:37Speaker 4: do you know the situation? So then Dwight Howard, you know.
- 20:41Speaker 1: He then tells his side of things, and from what
- 20:44Speaker 1: it seems like, he believes that he and he's a legend,
- 20:48Speaker 1: that Amy is doing all of this because they're having issues. Uh,
- 20:55Speaker 1: there's jealousy there, he says, there's jealousy there. You guys
- 20:58Speaker 1: are gonna please pay attention to who she he said,
- 21:00Speaker 1: she's jealous of. But it's timed right around the time

- 21:40Speaker 5: Life.
- 21:41Speaker 2: She knows me, so she can do anything to ruffle
- 21:45Speaker 2: my feelings, stop my stuff.
- 21:47Speaker 4: She can be up.
- 21:48Speaker 2: Last night we asked the pops to do something about
- 21:50Speaker 2: her being here because she is what she antagonized as
- 21:53Speaker 2: an owload of rules. I know what's going on, and
- 21:57Speaker 2: I'm cooler that, but this is mob Jays. I've been
- 21:59Speaker 2: here nine ten years. She just just got married. She
- 22:03Speaker 2: left the first.
- 22:04Speaker 4: Six months because she was trying to get some money.
- 22:07Speaker 4: With everybody telling me to do the right thing. What
- 22:11Speaker 4: is the right thing?
- 22:12Speaker 2: The right thing was to stay married or stayed with somebody, Okay,
- 22:15Speaker 2: And so I tried to you know what I'm saying,
- 22:17Speaker 2: forgiveness whatever you want to call her. Brought it back
- 22:20Speaker 2: in exactly time. Can I brought it up here to
- 22:24Speaker 2: the time she started going crazy.
- 22:26Speaker 5: It was a full year.
- 22:27Speaker 2: It seems to get hit. She just hit dessert, and
- 22:30Speaker 2: so it's also be an instance where she's giving something
- 22:35Speaker 2: my animals.
- 22:35Speaker 3: I had watch my animals, these dogs, I had.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Another man of doll okay man that was huge under
- 22:44Speaker 2: her watch. A couple of days before the dog died,
- 22:48Speaker 2: she told me I got something for you. That she
- 22:51Speaker 2: said it in a way like I'm gonna do something
- 22:53Speaker 2: to you.
- 22:53Speaker 4: I got something for you, and she killed your dog.
- 22:58Speaker 4: You can't prove it.
- 22:58Speaker 2: I'm not implying under saying that she killed my dog,
- 23:01Speaker 2: but I would say that she was negligent because she
- 23:04Speaker 2: was watching my animals when she said that the dogs
- 23:07Speaker 2: got out the gate. Now, as y'all can see that
- 23:09Speaker 2: this gate is pretty big and stall, it's no way
- 23:12Speaker 2: these dogs can get out no matter what they do
- 23:14Speaker 2: unless somebody open the gates.
- 23:19Speaker 5: At the end of the day, I'm.
- 23:21Speaker 2: Afraid for my son.
- 23:22Speaker 4: Heaved around her. Something asked to both of them.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Keep saying though that they keep sticking together because it's
- 23:30Speaker 1: like do the right thing, stay in your marriage, figure
- 23:33Speaker 1: it out. And you know, I know we all like
- 23:36Speaker 1: to think that we mind our business when it comes
- 23:37Speaker 1: to other people's relationships.
- 23:39Speaker 4: But to me, in my opinion, I think it's just
- 23:41Speaker 4: hard to do. I don't want to say do the
- 23:44Speaker 4: right thing.
- 23:44Speaker 1: I think you should do what is actually making sense
- 23:48Speaker 1: and what is healthy and what is actually progressive, like
- 23:51Speaker 1: if things are changing and it's getting better.
- 23:54Speaker 4: But I think it's hard.
- 23:55Speaker 1: To do any of that and figure out what the
- 23:56Speaker 1: right thing to do is when we keep being put
- 23:59Speaker 1: back in the roup chat. Now, Amy decided to get
- 24:01Speaker 1: online and tell us, you know, some of the things
- 24:03Speaker 1: she alleged were happening in her householder and her marriage
- 24:06Speaker 1: on her own, but everything after that has been kind
- 24:11Speaker 1: of like because it's like now we're over here, Like

- 24:41Speaker 1: this body can So I don't know, I feel that
- 24:44Speaker 1: to say, I don't know how they reconcile this if
- 24:47Speaker 1: they do, because it's like one things get to the.
- 24:49Speaker 4: Public like on the Internet and all of that.
- 24:51Speaker 1: It's just's tough, Like it's really tough to figure out.
