00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,200

26
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: want to make sure.

27
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the case. That was my first,

28
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 2: you know, time feeling and that was my first time

29
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 2: wearing a wig. If that's what we're talking.

30
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 3: About, Oh oh oh when I saying about that, but okay,

31
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 3: so let's talk about the wig. So I wasn't even

32
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 3: addressing that.

33
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 2: Oh okay, let's talk about this weig. Get it out

34
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 2: the way. You know, this was my first time ever

35
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: wearing a wig, and I'm like, so, okay. I was

36
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 2: advised by my hairstyle. I was like, you know, we're

37
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 2: a wig. All the girls do it. They want to

38
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 2: protect their hair. I was like, okay, cool. I was

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 2: hot when he put the wig go on, so I'm like, all,

40
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 2: cool down. I don't know what made me think I'll

41
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 2: cool down once the wig is glued down and I

42
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: go out in eighty ninety degree temperature. But as soon

43
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: as I got out the car, I was like, this

44
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: is not gonna be good. I could just feel the

45
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 2: sweat bubbling up, and I was just like, Lord.

46
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 3: Not today, not today, and not for the world to

47
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 3: not today.

48
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 2: In front of the world any other time, but today.

49
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 3: Well what an entrance?

50
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, an interest was an entrance was.

51
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: Made for sure, and so on this show your friends

52
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: with Drew, that's the person who they have you really

53
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,119
Speaker 1: connected with. And on the second episode and we saw

54
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: this was like the trailer for the second epis for

55
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: the second episode on the first one, but then I

56
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: saw the second one.

57
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 3: You say that Shamiah is Porsha's lap dog?

58
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 2: Yeah?

59
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 3: Right? Do you still feel that way now?

60
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: I do? I do? I do? And I felt that

61
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: way then because Drew took a lot of heat in

62
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 2: that first episode and I was just helpless because I

63
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: was like, I can't take on anybody with my wig,

64
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: like the camera off me and Drew. I'm sending smoke

65
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 2: signals like I'm with you, I'm with you, but I

66
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 2: just can't say anything. I just felt like, you know,

67
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 2: she was a bit double team.

68
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: So you know, it's interesting because I made it a

69
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: topic when she made it was up here.

70
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 3: I also was like, you know, if I'm.

71
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 1: Friends with somebody, and I had I think the way

72
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: that it was porchee because like I said, I know

73
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: there's a lot that goes on that we don't see.

74
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: It made it seem like Jude did it in a

75
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: sneakier kind of way, you know where, because I can't

76
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: tell if she did tell Porsche ahead of time where

77
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: it didn't like, it's not really clear.

78
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: To my understanding. Porscha was aware they were working together.

79
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: She was Dennis invited her to her birthday party. Porscha

80
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 2: was aware, you know when she was aware. I don't

81
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: know when she became aware. I'm not familiar with that.

82
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: I don't know when exactly, but she knew, so it

83
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: wasn't like and then Porscha's she kept kicking the can down.

84
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, so what are you mad about?

85
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 2: Are you mad about her working with Dennis? Are you

86
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: mad about this photo shoot? I was just lost. Yah,

87
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 2: can we do this another day? Yeah? I checked out

88
00:03:58,600 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: at that point.

89
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 3: And how do you feel now?

90
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: Because it also seems like you're married to Charles Oakley,

91
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: who I happened to know.

92
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: I've actually had his cooking before an event.

93
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah.

94
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: And it was amazing and I love it. And I

95
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: love to see him in the kitchen cooking while you're there.

96
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 3: You know, I just pick up.

97
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 2: A plate and eat like. I have no problems with that,

98
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 2: I know. And you know what I used to take

99
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: it for granted, and my grandmother was like, oh, you

100
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 2: have to do is pick up a plate.

101
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 3: You know what, he's watching the dishes.

102
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 2: I have to hear him nag the whole time. So

103
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 2: it's not like he come in lovingly like, hey, let's

104
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 2: just cook dinner. I haven't know, he's going to complain

105
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 2: about this, complain about that, and that's the price we

106
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: pay for good dinner.

107
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: But the other on the you know, on the other

108
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: side of that is it feels like even when you're

109
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: trying to tell him what's going on, he don't want

110
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: to hear the gossip.

111
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 2: Not the gossip you not want to hear except a

112
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 2: bunch of women gossiping about what we had going on.

113
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 2: He would rather talk about anything he does not want

114
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 2: to hear about it.

115
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems like he has a good sense of

116
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 1: humor though he is.

117
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 2: He does, and a lot people are unfamiliar with his type,

118
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 2: like he's he's brashed on the outside and on the

119
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: inside it's mushie, like, yeah, cooking at his love language.

120
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 2: Being in the kitchen, it's his love language. And he's

121
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 2: just Charles Oakley, who he's been, you know, for all

122
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 2: his life.

123
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: Now you guys have an interesting story about how y'all

124
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: even met. Yeah, because before he got your number and

125
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: then you didn't even see him or connect with him

126
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: until ten years after that.

127
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 2: Well, we met at a party in Chicago, and we

128
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: exchanged numbers. We spoke for a little bit on the phone,

129
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 2: but I didn't hear from him again. Okay, It wasn't

130
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 2: like I was waiting by the phone like please call

131
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: me right that was excuse me. That was our initial meeting.

132
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 2: And so ten years later when I saw him again,

133
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 2: I was just like, hey, how you doing, And he

134
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 2: took an interest, a strong interest.

135
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: Inn Do he remember like that, y'all?

136
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:53,840

139
00:05:58,560 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: No, So y'all were in neighbors.

140
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: Is that awkward dating somebody who's living right there, because

141
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: sometimes people say that's a no.

142
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 2: No, it was. It was awkward, but you know, I

143

Speaker 2: have people assisting me and keeping him in check, you know,

144
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,680

Speaker 2: me and me only Oh, Okay, well a minute.

147
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: When you first started dating it, people are always dealing

148
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: with o it. You probably were dealing with other people too,

149
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:30,000

Speaker 2: just loaded him down a lot.

159
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 3: You know, that's crazy.

160
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: One of my exes, his mom told me because he

161
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: used to cheat on me all the time. She was like, girl,

162
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: when he gets too old to want to have to

163
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: move around like that.

164
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 3: She was like, his stepfather cheated on me all the time.

165
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 2: But look he old now that I'm not gonna know

166
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: about your cheating.

167
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 3: But that's what I couldn't believe that his mother said

168
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 3: that to me. I was young.

169
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: I was like in my twenties, and I was like, yeah,

170
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: Na says, I'm not waiting.

171
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 2: They're just sticking out for thirty years of cheating, no.

172
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,119
Speaker 3: For that to happen.

173
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: Now, you guys also have a blended family, do and

174
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: so you're showing that on television.

175
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 3: How is it for you?

176
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: Because this is a different space for you to be in,

177
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: and now everybody's got questions like, well, this, you know whatever,

178
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: how has that been so far?

179
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 3: How are you navigating that?

180
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 2: WHOA? When I took the show, I was just like,

181
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 2: you know what, I'm going to be transparent about everything.

182
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 2: I don't want anyone to say, oh, we found out

183
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 2: this about All you have to do is ask because

184
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 2: I am I'm honest and I'm transparent. What you see

185
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 2: is what you get. So with our families, I was

186
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: just it was it's the truth. We have a blended

187
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: family and I want to tect them as much as

188
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 2: I can. We come from living and isolated private life

189
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 2: to now being thrust in front of the world. So

190
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 2: it's an adjustment for sure.

191
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so different.

192
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: So what are some of the feedback that you've gotten

193
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: so far just from these first couple of episodes, Because

194
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 1: you you.

195
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 3: Haven't it's no drama yet.

196
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 2: Really, I feel like I'm in I feel like i'm

197
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: in all the drama. For some reason, I feel like

198
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 2: the drama it will get worse. But I mean, you

199
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 2: gotta keep watching. You gotta keep watching, because again I

200
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 2: had never failed a day in my life. I would

201
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 2: go from getting my makeup done once a year to

202
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 2: now every day. So I don't know if my foundation

203
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: is right. I don't know anything. I don't know anything

204
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 2: about wigs. So to be thrust in the entertainment world,

205
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 2: it was just different. And you're gonna see all of

206
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: me learning and growing in front of the camera, like

207
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 2: I'm just being transparent.

208
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 3: All right.

209
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: And that's the fact because a lot of women, I

210
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: will say whenever I watch reality shows from the first

211
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: season in up until when you get to like see.

212
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 3: The differences and how everybody looks.

213
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: So don't over criticize yourself either though, because I think

214
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: that's what people really were looking forward to you as

215
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: a new person on the show. But I think people

216
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: also understand that they have the well maybe they don't.

217
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 2: They don't know, okay, you know, they get you as

218
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: soon as you come in the door. They own you,

219
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 2: like they don't get It's no grace with even the fans,

220
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 2: you know. And I would say this. The fans have

221
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 2: been amazing. They have been supportive because this is a

222
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 2: new you know, platform and a new a new just

223
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 2: a new experience for me, and the fans have guided

224
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 2: me along the way. Like you can see in the comments,

225
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: just be transferent and give us your truth. And that's

226
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 2: what I'm trying to do.

227
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: So behind the scenes, when you agreed to do this show,

228
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: what was that like and what were the conversations that

229
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: you had, Because we've seen how Shemiah said previously she

230
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: her husband didn't want to do the show when she

231
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 1: was offered a piece, just because he didn't want to

232
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: be on camera. Sometimes people feel like it really does

233
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: affect your relationship, and like you said, you want to

234
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 1: protec the kids. So tell me what that conversation and

235
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: what that thought process was like for you to decide

236
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: let's do it.

237
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 2: Well, this was the third time it was presented to

238
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 2: us and a few times, you know, a time before

239
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 2: Charles was like, no, I'm not doing that.

240
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 3: He's no, you know, he was like, I do a

241
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 3: cooking show, but this is no, this.

242
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 2: Is not going to happen. And we had so much

243
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 2: going on in our lives at this moment. You know

244
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 2: when when the opportunity came again, I was just like,

245
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 2: now's the time, and he agreed. He was willing to,

246
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: you know, put put our lives and open for the

247
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: public and deal with all that came with that, especially

248
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: him being who he is and what he's done. You know,

249
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So all of that, you know,

250
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 2: we're ready to face head on.

251
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: Oh I cannot wait to see it because I feel

252
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: like there's some things because I could tell by that,

253
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: and I know as these episodes are coming along and

254
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,920

Speaker 1: real estate. I admire that. Yeah, you know already because

259
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: I think that's important and it's a great thing for

260
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: people to see on television, even you saying you have

261
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: five homes that you're in the process of renovating, and.

262
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 2: Now no one should take my advice on doing that.

263
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 3: I'm done with that.

264
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: I have tips and other aspects of finance, but please

265
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 2: don't make that mistake. I'm from Harvey Illinois. I'm a single.

266
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 2: I grew up in an impoverished community. You know, I

267
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 2: had a lot of love, a lot of encouragement, a

268
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 2: lot of motivation. I went to the Paul University. I

269
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 2: was a teen mom I have you know, I was

270
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 2: on welfare. I'm an entrepreneur. I worked in corporate America.

271
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 2: So everywhere I go, I take all those women with me.

272
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 2: So I am every woman I feel because I've experienced

273
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 2: every way of life. And I a friend of mine

284
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 2: multiple states, and I became successful. And then I took

285
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: that money and put it into real estate. And I still,

286
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,679

Speaker 1: So recently, Candy also said that she doesn't feel like

329
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure you saw this too because it's been on

330
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: all the blogs, but she thinks that Porscha and Shamia

331
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: are no longer friends like that anymore. Is that something

332
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: that you're getting a vibe about too.

333
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 2: I swear I don't see a world with Porscha and

334
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 2: Shamia are ever not going to be friends. Like it's

335
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 2: just too they got too much history. So I feel

336
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 2: like they're friends and the moment, like you a test,

337
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: like say somethinglet's say something about Portchra to Shamia. I

338
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: heard that, Like, you know, I'm like, I don't care

339
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 2: what you think it is. It's not that insane with Porsche,

340
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 2: you know. I just you know, as you learned the people,

341
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 2: and you know, you learn the girls, I'm like, Okay,

342
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: maybe they can bicker amongst each other, but they don't

343
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 2: allow I was low forces to join in.

344
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: Now who surprised you the most once you joined the show? Like,

345
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: as far as I thought this person was gonna be cool, but.

346
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 2: Oh goodness, uh you know what. Uh all of the

347
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 2: ladies were good. But based on the first few episodes,

348
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 2: I thought Shmia would be cool. You know, I thought

349
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 2: she would be you know, my person. She's a taurust,

350
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 2: you know, I thought her and I would immediately hit

351
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 2: it off.

352
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean it could also be the because you

353
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: are close with you, because people do have alliances.

354
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't move like that. I don't not

355
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 2: like you because that person doesn't like you. I give

356
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 2: you a chance for myself because it could be a

357
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 2: misunderstander between those people.

358
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 1: So because you also thought like you was being treated unfairly, oh.

359
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that was a bit much. That was a

360
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 2: bit much, and you know, for both of them to

361
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 2: come at her that way, you know, it was just

362
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 2: a bit much.

363
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 3: What do you think about her situation where her husband

364
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 3: soon to be ex husband living in the basement and.

365
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, I mean, you're not trying

366
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 2: to get up house. Yeah, I know she's stressful. I'm

367
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 2: sure because I'm sure he's down there like my husbands,

368
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 2: slamming pots and pants, just making his presence known. Uh So,

369
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure it's stressful to be around somebody that you're

370
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 2: trying to disconnect from, but you have to be next

371
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 2: to them. It's a lot for anybody.

372
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 3: Who else did you know before the before you started filming?

373
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 2: Andrew?

374
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: Okay, only do that's it?

375
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 2: Drew now through Charles, Charles knew more of the cast,

376
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 2: and I oh really he knew Cynthia. He okay, Cynthia,

377
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 2: Yeah true.

378
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: Now what do you think about Kenya and that whole

379
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: situation with her, How they've had her on the show

380
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: in the beginning, but then her and Brittany had their

381
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: situation with the you know, the pictures and all of that,

382
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: and I feel like people are hinting that it's not

383
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: what we thought it was. Originally, you know, went viral

384
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: and people were kind of dragging Kenya for what she did.

385
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 3: But it feels like the tides might turn a little.

386
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 2: You know. I can't wait to see that how that

387
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 2: plays out, because I feel like I want both of

388
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 2: them to be vindicated in their own way. I want

389
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 2: Kenya to be vindicated in her reasoning, and I want

390
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 2: Britt to be vindicated and you know, her reasoning. I

391
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 2: hope that both of them get the vindication that they

392
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 2: deserve because it was a lot. It was a lot,

393
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 2: and you guys will see it was just a lot

394
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 2: for us watching, so I didn't have to, you know,

395
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 2: experience the embarrassment.

396
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 3: But you know, are you done filming for the season?

397
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: I am okay, based off of this season, would you

398
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: be willing to come back for another one?

399
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 2: I need to see the episode. What did I know?

400
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, so this was gonna be cool by y'all.

401
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 2: You know, as humans, we feel like I did not know.

402
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 2: We feel like it might have been bad for them,

403
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 2: but I can take it. You know, we always feel

404
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 2: like we're stronger than the next person.

405
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I feel like you are so sweet?

406
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 1: Is here everything that you're saying, and then you got

407
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: thrust into this not because people. Some people know what

408
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: to expect, you know, they've been doing this, like and

409
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: they're able to the levels.

410
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 2: I feel like Season sixteen is a whole new level. Yeah,

411
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 2: it's nothing you've seen before. It's so intense and I

412
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 2: feel like it's raw, it's authentic. Nothing is fake, you know,

413
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 2: this is these are our first this is our first

414
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 2: time on camera as a as a group. So what

415
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 2: you see is what you get, and it's real. It's real.

416
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:35,880
Speaker 2: I was mad that it was real.

417
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, I.

418
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,000

00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 2: my real life? Yeah, so that's how it went.

420
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 3: I love this though. This was a real conversation.

421
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: We talked about what you didn't expect with the wigs,

422
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 1: we talked about you with the Yeah, just a whole

423
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: lot of things that went down. But listen, I'm looking

00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,760
