Speaker 1: guy and she knows the is a cheater. She knows

79
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: he is no good and I even showed her proof

80
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: that he's seeing another woman. I tell this friend all

81
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: the time she is too beautiful to settle for less,

82
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: but she is sure that they will get married even

83
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: though he doesn't want a relationship, okay, and they will

84
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: have kids together.

85
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 2: So this is where I need help.

86
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: How do I tell my friend that she is settling

87
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: for less and she should move on and find herself

88
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: and find and find herself and find better without her

89
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: feeling like I'm overstepping my boundaries or trying to ruin

90
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: her situationship. So then I had follow up questions.

91
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 2: I was like, how old is she? How long they've

92
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 2: been dating? So she says she's twenty nine.

93
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: They've been dating for three years, but she caught him

94
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 1: cheating with another woman in his house when he invited

95
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: her over to bring him food and ruined. She ruined

96
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: property and had to pay three thousand dollars in repairs,

97
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 1: and she went back and it's currently with him.

98
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 2: Now, why if you don't leave that man? And this

99
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 2: this is the advice you as your as the friend,

100
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: needs to just be straight up and be like he

101
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 2: is of the worst and leave him.

102
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, as a friend, definitely offer your advice,

103
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: but do it in a way that you're like, Okay,

104
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: you know, this is just my advice, this is my opinion,

105
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: but don't let it change our relationship because that's the problem,

106
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: you know, And I think that's why you're a little

107
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: hesitant to even say anything because a lot of people think, oh,

108
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: I'm going to ruin our friendship if I say something

109
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: about her relationship. But I think you wouldn't be You

110
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: would not be a friend if you did not speak

111
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: to her from an honest place.

112
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: Yes, you know, and then you tell you know, do

113
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 2: what you want with this.

114
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: This is just my advice, my opinion regardless, I'm still

115
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: gonna love you blah blah blah, and keep it moving and.

116
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: Keep say it once and keep it moving. Yes. Yeah,

117
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: but you can't just like stand by and watch all

118
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 2: this nonsense and say nothing and call yourself a friend. Right, Yeah,

119
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: so like speak up and if she continues to be

120
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: with him, which she.

121
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 1: Will, right, you have to support it, right, And a

122
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: lot of times it's like people go through stuff and

123
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: she has to almost learn on her own.

124
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 2: Right.

125
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: So it's like you can say something, she might get

126
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 1: mad at you, Your friendship might actually suffer for it. Yeah,

127
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: but I promised you, like one day, she's gonna come

128
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: back to you and be like, girl, you were right.

129
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: I left him, You know what, you were right? I

130
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: was wrong. Yeah, she's got to learn for herself, yes,

Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe it. Yeah, because I mean he's convinced.

216
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,520

217
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: the ice machine.

218
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,199

223
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,520

230
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,120

Speaker 2: all right, and they would take pictures in video the

237
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: whole thing, right. Yes, I don't, I can't. I mean

239
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: things happen and they're like kind of unexplainable. Yeah, but

240
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,719

00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 2: like you don't have a lot of control in that moment. No,

309
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 2: And airplanes all of a sudden stopped working and I'm

310
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: left in Thailand. Then you start a new life in Thailand, Robin,

311
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 2: you had missed me so much, I know. Do you

312
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 2: know how many tears you would cry if I just

313
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 2: lived in Thailand it never came back. Thank God for FaceTime?

314
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: Oh God? All right, this is our last one, guys.

315
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 2: All right, so this is from Sabrina. Yeah, this froms Brina.

316
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 2: Hello all, thanks for a great episode. Although I'm not

317
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 2: an educator, I advocate for challenging school curriculum. I took

318
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 2: all the challenging courses coursework in high school. I honestly

319
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 2: don't remember most of it. However, those classes teaches children

320
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 2: how to think and navigate their problems and think creatively.

321
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: Oh didn't we ask? Yeah?

322
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: So this is in response to our podcasts a few

323
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: weeks ago where I was like, I don't understand why

324
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: our kids have to learn or and we even learn

325
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: or why are we learning physics? Why are we learning geometry?

326
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: Like we're not doing anything with this as adults.

327
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: So she goes on to say, as adults, we are

328
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 2: faced with so many problems where we are not going

329
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 2: to know all the answers, like how to manage COVID

330
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: in the early phases. So having the ability to effectively

331
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 2: analyze information, form judgments, even apply past knowledge to new

332
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: situations creates great leaders and effective citizens. Sabrina, you know what,

333
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 2: that's a good perspective. It's a great perspective. I totally

334
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 2: appreciate it. They should this should be read by principles.

335
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 2: When it's like a PTA meeting, when the when the

336
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 2: adults are there, when the when the moms and dads

337
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 2: are there. Because we have to get on board with

338
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 2: the bullshit that our kids are learning. Right, Like, they

339
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 2: come home, we don't know how to help them with

340
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 2: the homework. It just looks a mess. They need to

341
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: reiterate to us, like this is how them their brain

342
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,239
Speaker 2: think creatively and allowing them to be effective when they

343
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 2: get older with the challenges of the world.

344
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: Right, But you know what else would be nice as

345
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: as kids are learning stuff, I think a lot of

346
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: times it's like you teach them the concepts, but you

347
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: don't teach them the why. You know, It's like if

348
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: they said, okay, you're learning about whatever, Newton's law and

349
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: all whatever, all this stuff in physics, like this is

350
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: why this is important for you to learn it? And

351
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: here is a present day scenario.

352
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, want you want to be practical, to know what's

353
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 2: a practical right.

354
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: Because I think when you are teaching someone and whether

355
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: anything you're teaching them, if it's something in sports, it's like, Okay,

356
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,439
Speaker 1: a coach shouldn't just say, okay, slide your feet. They

357
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: need to tell them why they're telling you to slide

358
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: your feet or whatever whatever it is, you know what

359
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Like, And I think when you tell people

360
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 1: why they're teaching you something or why you're learning something,

361
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: then you can retain it more and you can reflect

362
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: back on it and you can say, oh, this is

363
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: is why I you know, oh I learned this in

364
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: ninth grade physics class.

365
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 2: You know, you can make it make sense. Yeah.

366
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: So I feel like a lot of teachers they just

367
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: teach you the you know, the the concepts, but they

368
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 1: don't teach you the why behind the concepts.

369
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 2: You know. When when Jamal would prepare like his sermons,

370
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 2: he was great about like taking something from the Bible

371
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 2: and applying it to every day life and applying it

372
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 2: to what's happening in the world today, applying it to

373
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 2: a rap song, applying it to things that we can

374
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 2: really relatestand and appreciate. And I think that was like

375
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 2: the you know, beauty to his sermons, because like you were,

376
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,479
Speaker 2: you were tied in and you really were like, okay,

377
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: this is some good ship. Oh I get it. I

378
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 2: get it. And then you know, he might have made it,

379
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 2: made up some stuff and every now and again. But anyway,

380
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 2: I think that's what teachers need to do.

381
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they need to just apply modern day

382
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: lessons the reasons why they're teaching stuff, because like I said,

383
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 1: I don't remember one thing I learned in physics, No,

384
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: not one no, and I failed. I think I'm sure

385
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: you did not. I'm sure I probably got a C

386
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: in physics though.

387
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 2: Really yeah, I'm pretty sure I got to see Okay

388
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 2: not Robin, Yeah, okay.

389
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: I think it was one of those things I was like, Okay,

390
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: this is not my thing. It's not going to be

391
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: my thing. I'm not even going to pretend.

392
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 2: Well. When I got to Hampton, I was a finance major,

393
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 2: and then I started taking finance classes and I started

394
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 2: to get start getting f's. Yeah, so I was like,

395
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 2: I'm no longer a finance major. Changer, I went to

396
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 2: that administration office so fast. I was like, I need

397
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 2: to change my major. I can't know this. I called

398
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 2: my dad. My dad was like, oh my god. My

399
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 2: dad was like, I tried to tell you, like you

400
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 2: got four years of my money. I was like, okay

401
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: that So what was your major? Marketing? Okay, me too,

402
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 2: Oh really, yeah, you're a marketing major. I did not

403
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 2: know that. Right. We have so many commonality we do.

404
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: Is that right? Is that a word? Yes, commonality? This

405
00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 2: is a word. Okay.

406
00:19:59,520 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

407
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 2: Finance class was hardship, but you know, it's so crazy.

408
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: So I took Finance.

409
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: The whole class, like the whole semester was difficult for me,

410
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: but for whatever reason, the final exam was completely open notes.

411
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: Oh and thank god for my line sister who was

412
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,399
