Speaker 4: And I'm just myself and you either love me or

83
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 4: you hate me, and it is what it is. But

84
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 4: give me a shot. And I think you know, you

85
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 4: get to see a lot of different sides of Gurtie.

86
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: No, we love you.

87
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 3: So I want to get back to just your background

88
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 3: because you are from Haiti.

89
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: Yes, you're a Haitian American. Talk to me just.

90
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 3: About that background and what it means to be a

91
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:44,119
Speaker 3: powerful black woman in Florida but also worldwide in terms

92
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 3: of your business and really seeing that you are a

93
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 3: force to be reckoned with.

94
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I was born in Haiti and at

95
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 4: the age of one, my family and I'm one of

96
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 4: seven kids, so I'm number six of seven. And of

97
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 4: the whole seven children, there's five girls and two so

98
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 4: kudos to my father for that, right, So I'm number

99
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 4: six and at that time there's only six of us.

100
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 4: My sister was born nine years after me, so I

101
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 4: was the youngest one when I was in Haiti, literally

102
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 4: the last picture of us is me in my mom's arm.

103
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 4: And then you know, my father decided because of the

104
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 4: political turmoil there that we were going to move to France.

105
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 4: So I was only one going to France. So Haiti

106
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 4: has a very special place in my heart because it's

107
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 4: I am Haitian and it's in my blood. But unfortunately

108
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 4: I never get the chance to live and feel the

109
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 4: soil and feel that culture beat, and so away from

110
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 4: Haiti is where I get the sense of being Haitian.

111
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 4: But I always feel like that's a miss in my

112
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 4: life and avoid that I hope comes full circle and

113
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 4: I end up back in my country some way, somehow.

114
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 4: So I, you know, raised in France for eight years.

115
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 4: At the age of nine, my father says, okay, America

116
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 4: is the place to be. Everyone's going to America, all

117
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 4: of our friends, et cetera. And we migrate to America.

118
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 4: Now that's a whole other story. But I came to

119
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 4: this country and not speaking of word of English. I

120
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 4: spoke French and a little bit of Creole, and you know,

121
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 4: trying to get acclimated. And the thing with with with

122
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 4: Miami is that you know, there's a lot of cultures already,

123
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 4: so Now it's this girl who says she's Haitian, but

124
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,799
Speaker 4: she kind of speaks Haitian but she has an accent,

125
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 4: so she's friends, Oh, you think it better than me.

126
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 4: So I had to struggle to just fit in. And

127
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 4: that's been my whole whole life, always trying to like

128
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 4: fit in somewhere somehow, the whole thing, you know. And

129
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 4: then come to Miami and this is actually what I

130
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 4: consider my home because here is where you have that

131
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 4: culture cultural mix, and everybody just kind of, you know,

132
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 4: appreciates each other, each other culture, and I just love

133
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 4: to be here because this is really a special sauce,

134
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 4: is what I like to call it. And I'm just

135
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 4: very proud to be in Miami and you know, representing

136
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 4: Haiti friends and America here here in the three or five.

137
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 3: No, honey, you are the secret sauce. When it comes

138
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 3: to how you were planted here. Yeah, what was your

139
00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 3: teenage years like being somebody who came here not speaking

140
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 3: a leak of English? Was it difficult for you to

141
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 3: make friends?

142
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 4: Very difficult? And what happens is I see my story

143
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 4: is told in my photos. I go through my albums

144
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 4: and I'm like, oh, that's the face when I try

145
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 4: to fit into this crowd. That's the face when I

146
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 4: try to fit into this other crowd. And you imagine

147
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 4: I will never not have an accent, you know, I'm

148
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 4: never gonna be normal in a sense. And I've learned

149
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 4: to accept me because I'm a lot, i know. And

150
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 4: when I walk in the room, I'm like, hey, guys,

151
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 4: how are you? And people not everyone's able to receive it,

152
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 4: like you like we we're here, we're like firecrackers because

153
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 4: we're so full of life and we appreciate life, so

154
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 4: we live out loud and everyone's like, oh my god,

155
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 4: you're too much. And so I lived my life literally

156
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 4: feeling confident when I came to America, and then it's like,

157
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 4: oh no, they don't like me over here. Oh no,

158
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 4: they don't like me over there. And it's tiring. It's

159
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 4: tiring to try to fit in. So now I realized,

160
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 4: just do me, and those who are going to be

161
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 4: my tribe will be my vibe, and that's it. That's

162
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 4: what I can offer, and it's worked out for me

163
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,040
Speaker 4: ever since. But I had to put myself in the

164
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 4: leadership position because there's so many people like me that

165
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 4: won't speak up for that. And in high school, elementary school,

166
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 4: I'm going to say elementary school is the worst. And

167
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 4: then junior high was acclamation, and then high school was

168
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 4: the takeover and the queen took her crown. Literally, I

169
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 4: was promp queen and everything. By the end. Yeah, and

170
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 4: I got my king over there, and twenty eight years later,

171
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 4: I'm living my best life. And it is it is

172
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 4: what it is.

173
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: Why was elementary school hard for you?

174
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 4: Why? Because I was the tallest girl. I was literally

175
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 4: pretty much this height with my father was a pastor,

176
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 4: so you got the freaking braids, with the ribbon, with

177
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 4: the you know, all of that I was. I was

178
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 4: here at the age of fourth grade, third grade, going

179
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 4: into fourth grade, and so all the kids were making

180
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 4: fun of me. I had to go to a special

181
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 4: class called ESOL, which is special education for like English learners.

182
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: It was really bad. I was wearing like you know,

183
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 4: church outfits and like you know, raise my hair, and

184
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,599
Speaker 4: all the girls have perms, and I was tall and

185
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 4: they used to call me giraffe. And I didn't speak English,

186
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 4: and so it was hard. It was really hard. And

187
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 4: then all of a sudden, I'm like, wait, I am

188
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 4: the tallest, so actually I'm towering over them, so like

189
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 4: a giraffe andey, I look down on you people. That's

190
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 4: how I had to set myself out to be like

191
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 4: I'm a bad ditch, and little by little, little by little,

192
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 4: I just started gaining that confidence back to what I

193
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 4: used to have in France, because in France, you didn't

194
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,839
Speaker 4: mess with me. Somebody was getting beat up or I'm

195
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 4: gonna call Gerdy. And by the way, exclusive my name

196
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 4: was not Gerdy in France, Okay. I had what they

197
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 4: called me in friends is Elicieba. So my full name

198
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 4: is Gerdy Elisheba Regui. That's my full name.

199
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: I know, Okay, I want to pronounce it.

200
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 5: It's Gerdid Elicia Ba Alicia BONI like it's rejoiced, but

201
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 5: like it's with REGI.

202
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 4: So that that was my name, So imagine that's friendship.

203
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 4: I don't know whatever my mom was thinking of, Honey,

204
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 4: that woman was very creative and so this kid the

205
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 4: reason why we switched my switch my name. You're getting

206
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 4: so many details here that no one even knows. So

207
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 4: when I came to America, I was like, oh, my

208
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 4: name is Elicia Belt and they were like, what Alicia

209
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 4: bum bum bum bum bum. They were making fun of

210
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 4: my name, and then I'm like, okay, how am I

211
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 4: going to do this? Girdy Gerty, Gerty Gerty, Oh Gerty, okay, girl,

212
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 4: g you name. I'm like, okay, okay, let's do this.

213
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 4: So it switched to Gerty. But I came to this

214
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 4: country with a completely different name, which was my middle name,

215
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 4: and then I ended up leading with my first name.

216
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 4: So now is gerdy.

217
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: Y fascinating? Fascinating?

218
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 4: Yes?

219
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: How did you get into.

220
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 3: Wedding planning, design and just the beauty aspect of your career?

221
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 4: So, like I told you, by the end of high school,

222
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 4: going into college, I was a full boss. I owned myself,

223
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 4: I owned my truth, and I owned my identity. And

224
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,319
Speaker 4: so I went to Saint Thomas University, which is the

225
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 4: same college that my husband went to, and I stayed behind.

226
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 4: Actually another exclusive, I wanted to pursue ballroom dancing. That

227
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 4: was that, yes, I know. That was after high school.

228
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 4: I fell in love with watching Dance with Me with

229
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 4: Vanessa Williams. I said, this is me, I am her,

230
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 4: she is me. I'm going to New York and I'm

231
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 4: learning the chatcha honey, Okay. And then he had me

232
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 4: at hell and I said, I'm this is this is it.

233
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 4: He is my future. And I stayed here and I

234
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 4: don't regret a thing because obviously, look at this beautiful life.

235
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 4: Two kids later, the whole thing. And so that's why

236
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 4: now in exercising, I'm like, okay, I'm walking, I'm doing elliptical.

237
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 4: Now I'm getting back into my groove of dancing again.

238
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 4: So I feel so happy. And everyone's like, oh my god,

239
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 4: you should be on dancing with the stores, and I'm like,

240
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 4: I could only wish and dream to represent. Can you imagine?

241
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 4: So it's a whole of the village, honey, she knows

242
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 4: a little self, little something something. Yes, indeed, what was

243
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 4: your question again? So how did I become due to

244
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 4: event planning? Right? Yes? So then I decided to go

245
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 4: into communication arts because in my mind, I'm like, I'm

246
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 4: gonna be a news anchor if I'm not gonna go

247
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 4: ballroom dancing, So I'm going to stay here and do

248
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 4: communication arts. And then I'm like, you know, I have

249
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 4: an accent, and I feel like this, I'm better in

250
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 4: the back of the house producing my shows than being

251
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 4: in the front. As a quote unquote reporter, So then

252
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, I was VP and then president

253
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 4: of the TV station at my college, and then all

254
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 4: of a sudden, I ended up getting a job at

255
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 4: the alumni office doing event planning for them and throwing

256
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 4: all these gallas to raise money. And they wanted me

257
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 4: to go around and meet with all these alumni and

258
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 4: ask for money, and I'm like, I don't like asking

259
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 4: for money, but I like putting on the parties. So

260
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 4: that's how I started saying, okay, zone in girls, zone

261
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 4: in parties, party planning, how do I get into this?

262
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 4: So through catering, you know your stuff from the back

263
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 4: of the house, then you are able to lead in

264
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 4: the front of the house. And that's how I ended

265
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 4: up doing event planning. And I never looked back because

266
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 4: I am very bossy. I am a multitasker, and I

267
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 4: think way bigger than anybody can even presume. Just like you,

268
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 4: you think big, and then you need the right team

269
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 4: to make sure. Like I want to do is make

270
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 4: it happen. And then you get the right team and

271
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 4: then it just makes you look good. So I just

272
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 4: ended up doing this for twenty two years, and at

273
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 4: the highest level. If you know, a place called Fisher

274
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 4: Island is where the one percent live. You can't even

275
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 4: drive there, my friend, you got to take a ferry

276
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 4: to get on. You're not getting cleared. You get it

277
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 4: on by boat. You get it on by helicopter, private helicopter,

278
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 4: or by the ferry. And that's how exclusive it is.

279
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 4: So I've seen Beyonce, Usher, Oprah, you know, Rose O'donald.

280
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 4: Trust me, I've seen it all. I've done it all

281
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 4: for all of them, with non disclosure agreements of course.

282
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 4: But you know, that's where you get your grind. You

283
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 4: know you're able to that's where you get your grind.

284
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 4: You're able to really know and learn from the good,

285
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,479
Speaker 4: the bad, the ugly through those you know, those different experiences,

286
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 4: and it brought me to where I am today. So

287
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 4: I'm very fearless because of the fact that I've worked.

288
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 4: I worked with fear for a very long time.

289
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 3: No, that's amazing because obviously, here you are, You're this

290
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 3: beautiful powerhouse. You're running a multimillion dollar business in a

291
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 3: billion dollar industry, and you are a black woman dominating

292
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 3: that space in one of the richest states in the.

293
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: World, Florida.

294
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 3: And I don't think people really understand the gravity of

295
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 3: what that means.

296
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 4: So you're as good as your last event. That's what

297
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 4: I like to say, yes when I tell you you

298
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 4: have to stay humbled in life because the moment that

299
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 4: you're like, oh I'm this, I'm this, I'm that, oh,

300
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 4: you will get knocked down in three seconds. And obviously

301
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 4: we'll talk about it later. But cancer was that moment

302
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 4: for me of like, oh, humble, yes, humble, but yeah,

303
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 4: you have to stay literally focused, keep your head down,

304
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 4: do the work, because you're as good as your last

305
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 4: event or good as your last performance, whatever you're doing life,

306
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 4: learn that real quick. Humble yourself always.

307
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah no, and listen so to be able to

308
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,600

Speaker 4: Perfect life.

311
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 3: When you received the call for Miami Housewives, though, okay,

312
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 3: what happened? Like, how did you get the call? How

313
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 3: did you end up on the show, what were your

314
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 3: thoughts on it? Did you even know about this show

315
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 3: prior to get.

316
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 4: I am a Bravo a holic for sure. I will

317
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 4: always love Bravo. I mean, my god, the best. To me,

318
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 4: it was the best messy shows ever, it's like, you know,

319
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 4: it's escapism, right. So, like I come from home from

320
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 4: a long event and I'm like, okay, what is this

321
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 4: housewife show about? Oh no, she didn't. You know. You

322
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 4: react to these situations that you've been put in and

323
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 4: so forth, and I think that I seem to look

324
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 4: like the perfect housewife, the husband, the house of this.

325
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 4: I got it all, you know, in the sense of

326
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 4: the checklist. But I knew some of the girls beforehand.

327
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 4: And it's all about connectivity with these shows. If it

328
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 4: ain't real, it ain't happening, because it can't be reality

329
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 4: TV without the real inn it, right. So for me,

330
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 4: it's like Nicole and I are so funny because she's

331
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 4: literally my best friend and we were around the same circles.

332
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 4: I have a photo of her as in a background

333
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 4: in an event that I was being honored on because

334
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 4: it was a magazine that I was being featured on,

335
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 4: and she was at that event and we didn't know

336
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 4: each other, but we were always in the same circle.

337
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 4: Same with Alexia. So through all these connections, all of

338
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 4: a sudden we meet and then the show calls and

339
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 4: it's like, oh my god, this is like all meant

340
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 4: to be everything in life is meant to be everything.

341
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 4: There's no mistakes in this life. And so once you were,

342
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 4: once you acknowledge it, when the call came, it was

343
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 4: kind of like, Okay, this is it, this is it.

344
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 4: And you know, I look at Russell of course, because

345
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 4: his approval this includes him too, and he knew, he

346
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 4: knew that it was like it was inevitable, it's what

347
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 4: I want to say, and he felt comfortable. And I

348
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 4: like the fact that he didn't threaten my livelihood, which

349
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 4: is my business. It wasn't so like here Gerty Jeff

350
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 4: Lewis style, you know what I mean, because there was

351
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 4: a few opportunities prior with that whole concept. But I

352
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 4: said to myself, this is perfect because it shows my

353
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 4: balanced life in a sense. So this was great. Yeah,

354
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 4: I don't regret it. I love it.

355
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: What was the audition process like for you?

356
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 4: It was at so much audition. It was all about

357
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 4: again that all these girls knew each other and from

358
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 4: one and then you know, obviously I think the root

359
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 4: came from the pre cast, those who came from season

360
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 4: one two and how did they evolve ten years later?

361
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 4: So then the involvement included some of us newbies, and

362
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 4: that's how we came to be. So it was actually

363
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 4: the perfect the perfect timing, the perfect people around everything,

364
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 4: the surrounding was proper for everybody, and I think it

365
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 4: just worked out. So it was meant to be.

366
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 3: No, it really was, because I've said this on my

367
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 3: podcast and the world is saying this too. Real Housewives

368
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 3: in Miami is truly truly one of the best housewives

369
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 3: out like you are doing together.

370
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 4: Recognition for you yet, but they've come around soon.

371
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 3: No, Listen, when I watched the reboot, if you will,

372
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 3: that first season of the reboot, which is season three.

373
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 1: Technically, we were all like, no, this is it.

374
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 3: My African I we were living in Miami at the time,

375
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 3: and we were like yes.

376
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: We were like, no, this is it.

377
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 3: Because one thing about Miami that we're all obsessed with

378
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 3: is you get amazing personal stories.

379
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: Yes, everybody clocks in to work.

380
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 4: Everybody, honey, friends of our friends, friends, friends like that. Honey,

Speaker 3: Just around, but stay tuned for more. Ooh, brain drops.

387
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 3: I have so much fun this weekend. I was hanging

388
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 3: out with my friends, luxuriating a boy the pool, playing

389
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 3: basketball cause you know I'm athletic.

390
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: But baby, I have so much to do this week.

391
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 3: So before I get my week started, I gotta hidrate myself.

392
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:00,640
Speaker 1: So let me tell you all about this.

Speaker 3: really really good. You get one stick plus sixteen ounce

395
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,280

407
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: back into the show. One of the things that I'm

408
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 3: so interested in when it comes to the dynamic of Miami,

409
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 3: do all of you ladies have a conversation like we're

410
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 3: gonna bring it because one thing Alexia said on Watch

411
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 3: What Happens Live, she does feel like Miami Housewives is

412
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 3: like the step children of the franchise. She mentioned that before,

413
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 3: so I was always curious, like my marriage to medicine girls,

414
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 3: they're like, listen, we're going to be ourselves, that we're

415
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 3: going to make the best show.

416
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 4: It's that a conversation, it's that a reaction to something.

417
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 4: It's just I think literally the melting pot that we are,

418
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 4: like we can't help it. Like I'm telling you right now,

419
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 4: Miami is in the sauce. I always like to say

420
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 4: that we have our seasoning that no one could replicate.

421
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 4: It's like turn the cameras off for real, for real,

422
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 4: we're still going at it or we're still talking like

423
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 4: oh my god. But it's this thing. It's a cadence

424
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 4: that no one could get and it's just the thing

425
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 4: that we have together. So it's like you put a

426
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 4: camera on or off, it doesn't matter because we are

427
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 4: going to be that one personality as we are. Because

428
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 4: that's why I think we were the chosen ones, because

429
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 4: we literally just gel in a way that's like not explicable.

430
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 4: It's just weird and it's just organic and it's real.

431
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 4: It's not made up, it's not put on. So when

432
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,120
Speaker 4: people some people are like, oh, Gertie, she's so extra. No, no, no,

433
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 4: you don't know what this guy has to go through.

434
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 4: Russell's like dealing with cuckoo crazy in the best way. Like,

435
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 4: you know, we live we live out loud. Here, we

436
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 4: live out loud. It's too damn hot, honey to get out,

437
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 4: like we gotta let it all out, get it all out.

438
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: No, and you let it all out too.

439
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 3: And I remember last season one of the things that

440
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,640
Speaker 3: your cast makes we're saying about you, was like you're

441
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 3: doing too much Gerty, Remember, so.

442
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 4: They weren't doing enough, keep going, keep going. Yeah, when

443
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 4: people say you do too much, what does that mean?

444
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 4: Because you ain't doing enough. That has nothing to do

445
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 4: with me. I'll take care of my lane. You take

446
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 4: care of your lane. Let's keep talking. Yeah, you're right.

447
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 4: It was kind of like we're taking a back and

448
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 4: mind you, all of them in their own way are

449
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 4: very much too much in their own right right. So

450
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 4: it's kind of like you dictate what I can bring

451
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 4: to the table and how much of it, Like you

452
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 4: don't do this, you United scientist, So do not bring

453
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 4: my water level down to bring yours up, Like that's

454
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 4: not gonna happen.

455
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 3: Well, I concur because last season when I was watching

456
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:43,680

457
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 3: you and Alexia got into it because she just felt

458
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 3: like you were doing the most and when I say, baby,

459
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 3: you checked her so good, it was like, I don't go.

460
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,280

00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 4: spin heads, like, wait a minute, what's going on here?

465
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 4: You're not ready. You're not ready because there's a lot

466
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 4: of secrets revealed about some people, and the truth comes

467
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,959
Speaker 4: out in the best way, in the truthful way, and

468
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 4: finally it comes out in the sense of like, okay,

469
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,199
Speaker 4: let's lay things on the line of what it is

470
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 4: and what it ain't. So that we can move forward

471
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 4: or not type of things. So, yeah, you guys got

472
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 4: to tune in for the reunion.

473
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: So you and a Lexi are teaming up against the

474
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: other team.

475
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 4: Teaming up strategically. It's just that I ended up looking

476
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:44,640
Speaker 4: over to her like, Okay, now you're on the bus,

477
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 4: let's go girls. No, it's good, so trust me back

478
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 4: then if we'll go back there. Briefly, what happened was

479
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 4: is just kind of like I just felt that I

480
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 4: wasn't being or able to be my full self, and

481
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 4: because of the fact that everyone felt like, you know, oh,

482
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,479
Speaker 4: we were here first. It really was kind of like

483
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 4: OG's versus newbies that is no longer happening. And I

484
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 4: love that because now people are really seeing people for

485
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,239
Speaker 4: who they are and not because of like I know

486
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 4: you longer and this and that. So we're we're scratching

487
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 4: the prerequisites. I didn't feel like I was on the

488
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 4: same level before. I felt like it was kind of like,

489
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 4: get up and it's like, oh, you don't know anything

490
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 4: about that, You don't you want friends with her for

491
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 4: twenty years. I don't care because we're not twenty years back.

492
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 4: We're twenty twenty three. Twenty twenty two and twenty twenty four.

493
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 4: So let's go forward, soldiers, is what I'd like to say.

494
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 4: So yeah, so I think that now everyone's got the message,

495
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 4: and it's.

496
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: It's looking good, it's looking at the future is looking bright.

497
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 4: Definitely cloud the skies, a little sprinkle of rain.

498
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 2: Rain.

499
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 1: I love a good weather report.

500
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 4: How do you feel We're crazy? You know this right? No?

501
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,400
Speaker 3: You know you're my type? How do you feel when

502
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 3: people say? This got to Alexia's head? She felt that

503
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 3: she was a fan favorite and that she's the queen

504
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,199
Speaker 3: of the show. And I even think she intimated the

505
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 3: same as well.

506
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 4: Well, I can't discredit her for she holds the show

507
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 4: down in a way that is stable, especially through the

508
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 4: story with Frankie, and because that story is constant, it

509
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 4: is a present, it is a pass, it is the future.

510
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 4: She's with him, he's thank God, of course. And so

511
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 4: you know, Alexia has a really good heart. But I

512
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 4: think that obviously through pain and heart from what happened

513
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 4: with her her life she lived. Her life is a telenovela.

514
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 4: It's literally not even normal. So she has I think

515
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 4: aggression sometimes where she takes it out in different ways.

516
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 4: We all do. By the way how we show it

517
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 4: is different, and that's what it is, you know. So

518
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 4: I can't fault her for whatever she is. It's just

519
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 4: about like just be respectful to others, you know. And

520
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 4: so I think that she may have been in a place,

521
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,479
Speaker 4: you know, last season, but I think she's you know,

522
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 4: she's she's realized it. And you see this season her

523
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 4: putting her best best foot forward at the New Horizon

524
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 4: episode that happened, you know, the first of the first episode,

525
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 4: like she tries to say, hey, I saw my bad.

526
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 4: I'm trying to do good moving forward, And that's what

527
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 4: it is. It's growth, right, trying to do better the

528
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 4: people who don't understand how to grow. That's called a clown. Okay.

529
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 1: Do you sometimes feel like you're at a circus act?

530
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 4: Sometimes I do, But it ain't a funny one. It isn't.

531
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 4: So what do you want me to do? So it's

532
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 4: kind of like it's a scary, you know how people

533
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 4: are scared of clowns. Now, I understand.

534
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: Why is it like the IT movies?

535
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 2: Sometimes I don't see it?

536
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 4: Is it a horror knows? I don't do horrors or

537
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 4: come to my house or locking my door with the mask.

538
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 4: Don't do it because we're ready to We're ready to respond.

539
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 4: Trust be that. Okay, we don't play games in my house.

540
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 4: We're very secure.

541
00:26:55,720 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 3: So by you, by you being this world renown even planners,

542
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 3: you obviously have created parties, created spaces for people to

543
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 3: hang out, and been to tons of events. Yes, Lisa's

544
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 3: obviously is going through this divorce. What has been said

545
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 3: on the show is how her and Lenny had these,

546
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 3: you know, luxurious parties.

547
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, I've been to two of them actually.

548
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, And and how there will always be like these

549
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 3: scantily clad females around these parties who sometimes.

550
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: Didn't fit the bill if you will, Well maybe they.

551
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 4: Were maybe maybe they were chump change that weren't bills.

552
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 4: So that's the that's the first thing. Rule number one

553
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 4: to go to Lisa party is don't bring your men around.

554
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 4: So this first of all, Russell is not a social

555
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 4: person at all. Clearly everybody sees that. But rule number

556
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 4: one is going to be a Halloween party and it's

557
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 4: gonna be g strings and booty. Okay, no, no, Russell's

558
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 4: gonna have enough booty at home not to be going

559
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 4: to no party to look at no booty elsewhere? How

560
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 4: about that? So we're we don't the husband there, and

561
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 4: then when you go there, you don't take you don't

562
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 4: stay there for long. You give you your hellos to Lisa,

563
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 4: and that's who we're here for. And then we just

564
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 4: kind of like, get a couple of drinks, take a

565
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,479
Speaker 4: couple of selfies with on your outfits or thet you know,

566
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 4: what is it called costumes, and then you go about

567
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 4: your Mary way. No one lingers at those parties, if

568
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 4: you know what it is, unless you want to, and

569
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 4: clearly that's not mean. So Lisa's come to a realization

570
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 4: with Lenny, and we're glad that we see her now

571
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 4: finally you know, clap on, clap off, and she finally

572
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 4: gets it. Okay, the lights are on. That's good, But

573
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 4: that's good. That's great because now she sees what she,

574
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 4: you know, has been going through and what everyone else

575
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 4: has been seeing. So she's she's moving forward and it's

576
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 4: great to see her moving on and realizing her past.

577
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 4: And you know, you saw the finale where her auntie

578
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 4: and her mom were talking to her about how he

579
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 4: treated them, and it's kind of like, what was that about?

580
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 4: And you know, so I'm glad that she's realized that

581
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 4: and hopefully, you know, she knows how to handle things

582
00:28:58,760 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 4: moving forward.

583
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah future, you know.

584
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: Well, we're happy she got that clap instead of the

585
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: other clap.

586
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, we don't want that clap, no, ma'am. So

587
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 3: Russell is not allowed to go to those parties.

588
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 4: It's not a he doesn't even want to go there.

589
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 4: But when I go there and like, literally know what

590
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get, like proposition to have three four six sms.

591
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 4: I'm too tired. I got things to do. Leasyusie and

592
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 4: I think that we're clearly sat ohaking his head. This

593
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 4: is what he loves it. He loves it. And this

594
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 4: is why I think that we are very good, not

595
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 4: because you know, we keep each other leveled in many ways.

596
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 4: We're good here, we're good here. No one is craving nothing.

597
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 4: We're good.

598
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I mean the fridge is stocked.

599
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 4: Don't you like my symbolisms. I'm so creative. Right, you're good, baby, baby,

600
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 4: you are clap on, clap off, the fridge is stuck.

601
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 4: Let's keep doing this. You are a one woman show.

602
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 3: Now that although you're a one woman show, I will

603
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 3: say this me and the fans.

604
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 4: I'm a huge fan, yes, me and the fans.

00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,560

Speaker 1: But no, I'm a college dropouts all good?

611

612
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 3: Oh honey, I dropped out a junior year because I

613
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,760

00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:30,560

00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: And I remember being in geology class.

616
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 3: You know, in college you're gonna take some of these breakuences.

617
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 3: And I remember being a geology class.

618
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 4: Saying this is nothing me.

619
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 3: Why am I in geology class when I have a job,

620
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 3: thank you as a production assistant.

621
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I dropped at honey, for you, I'm good.

622
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 4: Who needs Ivy League colleges anywhere at this point, to

623
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 4: be honest, my son is not going to one, and

624
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 4: I'm not trying to pay sixty thousand dollars for one.

625
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 4: Like the education is very similar whether you go across

626
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 4: the street to Miami Day College or there you go

627
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 4: to you know who knows where. So yeah, things are

628
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 4: changing in this world and I love it.

629
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 3: No experience First, I have no regress and I paid

630
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 3: off my student loan last year.

631
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: Thank you sir, Thank you God. But no, you are

632
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: a one woman show.

633
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 3: However, the fans and I, we.

634
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: Love the duo of you and Kiki. Oh, yes, you

635
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: and Kiki, and listen, I love.

636
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 4: Don't you guys want to see more of us together?

637
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 3: I'm just about to say that because I listen, I

638
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 3: love the relationship between Alexia and Marisol, like you want

639
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 3: to see more the baby. Why are we seeing this

640
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 3: dynamic more of us?

641
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 4: So I mean, all I can say is look forward

642
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 4: to the future hopefully, because I think that it's it's

643
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 4: now people are seeing this connection. Listen, KICKI and I

644
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 4: we're sisters and there's nothing that anyone can say or

645
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 4: do to write to to separate us in that. In

646
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 4: that sense, we are eyelands. We're from the same struggle.

647
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 4: We have the resilience that no one could ever take

648
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 4: away from us, and so those who try will fail

649
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 4: badly because it's not gonna work. We will always see

650
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 4: each other first as like what we are, before we

651
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 4: try to get into the mess of like he says,

652
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 4: she said, whatever, we will always be like a girl,

653
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 4: the girl. Yeah, let's go get up. Wait till you see,

654
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 4: Wait till you see the reunion. We share the same

655
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 4: dressing room. I'm gonna start with that. I'm gonna start

656
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 4: with that. We share the same dressing room and the

657
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 4: queens are queening, and I'm gonna say something in Creole

658
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 4: that my people will know it p that's it, okay,

659
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 4: And I'm gonna say that because we're coming. It's it's

660
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 4: It's gonna be good. And by the way, my best

661
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 4: friend is still Nicole is still in the mixed baby okay,

662
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 4: don't get don't get it twisted. Nichole is my BFF

663
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 4: and Kiki is my sister.

664
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 1: Period. Would you like to see Kiki as a full

665
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: time house.

666
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 4: Absolutely, She's got a story to tell. And it's funny

667
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 4: because the two of us are Haitian by birth. She

668
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 4: was in Haiti till she was a teenager. I was

669
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 4: in Hatity till I was one. So the way that

670
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 4: we connect is so different because it's not like, oh yeah,

671
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 4: remember this little store next door. No, I don't know Haiti.

672
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 4: So I get to learn from her, her from me,

673
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 4: and it's gonna be a beautiful thing, hopefully in the

674
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 4: future for you to see how we connect in a

675
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 4: different level of like my stile of the experience versus

676
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 4: her side, because Haiti to me is a beautiful place,

677
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 4: but it also is a very hurtful place because I

678
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 4: lost family there during the earthquake in twenty ten. So

679
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 4: we bond in a very deep level. And that's the

680
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 4: reason why it's like no one could ever check us

681
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 4: for nothing that we are or not, because it's just

682
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 4: not even it's not even normal, do.

683
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 3: You because it's funny because when I watched the show,

684
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 3: I do feel like they're trying to pit you two

685
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 3: against each other.

686
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 1: No, and I'm obviously not.

687
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 4: It's just like I think, editing wise, there's just so

688
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 4: much else going on there. It's not like when you're

689
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 4: heard like are on the show. We don't have combative

690
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 4: in anything, so it's kind of like, wait, there's something

691
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 4: going on over there. There's a lot of look over

692
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 4: here type of moment. Is that doesn't allow us to

693
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 4: kind of like show the bond. But I think that

694
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 4: everyone has realized the magic that it is, especially starting

695
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 4: like the reunion. It's just this little brewing. It's gonna

696
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 4: just brew itself into a beautiful cup of cappuccino, so

697
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 4: just wait, wait for it, wait for it. It's happening. Period.

698
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 3: Well that that just made my day because I've been

699
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 3: advocating for that on Twitter, like I just love his

700
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 3: duo and even when on this season when listen.

701
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: I do love all the girls.

702
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I was very disappointed in Lisa though, when

703
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:41,320
Speaker 3: you guys were on a trip and you know, listen,

704
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 3: Kiki's funny and she's cool. But when Lisa was, you know,

705
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 3: saying the microaggressions of like wait till the reunion.

706
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: But even you being.

707
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 3: There, like did you I feel like Kiky instantly knew,

708
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 3: like you're trying to say, I'm being a attacking you

709
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 3: till the reunion.

710
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 4: Wait till the reunion because it's like even Andy gets involved. Okay,

711
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 4: even Andy gets involved. So you'll see at the reunion

712
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 4: how it's just kind of like because again, like Kiky's

713
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 4: experience in growing up is very very fragile, right, So

714
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 4: she grew she saw pictures about like her house like

715
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 4: it was it wasn't even a house, poor thing, you know,

716
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 4: it was literally she struggled in a way. I was

717
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 4: one of six six children at that time when I

718
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 4: had moved to France. We were in a two bedroom apartment.

719
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 4: I struggled in a completely different way, but I was

720
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,319
Speaker 4: in a safe space, which is Paris, and you know,

721
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 4: like so you get, you get, you know, the help

722
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 4: from the government. It's just different from Kiki's. So Kiki

723
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 4: saw that dog throwing food thing as like, wait, what

724
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 4: are you trying to say, like just because they lived

725
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 4: there doesn't mean they're not happy or then I fed right,

726
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 4: And I didn't see it that way, because again, we

727
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 4: come so our perspectives are different, and that's why some

728
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 4: people are like, well, we don't need to Haitians. And

729
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 4: one thing I'm gonna say right now and listen very clearly,

730
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 4: this is for everyone. Why is it that when there's

731
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 4: two beautiful black women on a show or in a

732
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 4: room or whatever, and they're the only two amongst other

733
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 4: people of different races, why do we need to choose

734
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:21,800
Speaker 4: and say, oh, her or her versus her and her.

735
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 4: This is something in the beginning, the very beginning of

736
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 4: the first season three where I started seeing comments like oh,

737
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 4: they need to make KICKI this or or Gerdy this,

738
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 4: and and you know, KICKI out at Gerty out. Why

739
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 4: because now what you're gonna see is the most beautiful

740
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,760
Speaker 4: thing of sisterhood. And some other shows are not learning

741
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 4: that properly yet. But you're stronger together. Obama said it,

742
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 4: and I will repeat it, Stronger Together, and and Kiki

743
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 4: and gig Baby, it's coming. It's gonna be amazing.

744
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 1: That's a spin off.

745
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 4: We needn't know about all that. I would love it.

746
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 4: I mean, from your mouth to God's ears, you never know,

747
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 4: but I mean I would love to see.

748
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 1: I would love to see because.

749
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 3: You do events and you you do everything in the

750
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 3: beauty space. Yes, Kiki obviously is this international supermodel right,

751
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,320
Speaker 3: and there's something in that mix. I mean, I'm a producer.

752
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 3: I'm just saying I see it and I will be

753
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 3: here for it.

754
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 4: Listen, I'm a Bravo baby. I want to say, at first,

755
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 4: make sure I check on my want. We want to listen, honey,

756
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 4: listen to me very closely. I mean, I think that

757
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 4: anything is great as long as you show unity. You know,

758
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 4: people love the mess message great. How about watching something

759
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 4: when you come home from from from work or school

760
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 4: and you've already been through the mess at work or

761
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 4: school and you come home and say, wow, maybe I

762
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,240
Speaker 4: should do something different to create this kind of environment.

763
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 4: What about that? What about aspirational? Inspirational That's what I'm about.

764
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 4: And listen, if y'all get tired of that, trust me.

765
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 4: My life is great. It is great as it is now,

766
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 4: It'll be great as it is then. But the thing

767
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 4: is that I'm all about love until you try to

768
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 4: mess with me and then we got problems and you know,

769
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 4: you got to push my button a couple of times

770
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 4: and then it's like lego, you know, And that's what

771
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,320
Speaker 4: you saw with me, you know, you know last season

772
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 4: it was kind of like, I'm trying to be nice

773
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:13,959
Speaker 4: to you girl. You don't want me to gratify your ass?

774
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 1: Now, no we don't.

775
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,720
Speaker 3: But no, yeah, I appreciate the closeness between you and Kiki,

776
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 3: and like you said, the fact that you two are

777
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 3: Haitian Americans being able to like coexist and there shouldn't

778
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 3: be a choice before before we move on to the

779
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 3: rest of the season, Speaking of that, what are your

780
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 3: thoughts on this whole Windy Necker thing on Potomac So.

781
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 4: Sad, so sad, And I'm gonna say it exactly like

782
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 4: I saw it. There's nothing else to it. Wendy was

783
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 4: minding her business. Sorry, and Mekka, I sawry brother Khan

784
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 4: looks amazing, beautiful. But I felt like maybe there was

785
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 4: just a lot of people in the ear to be like,

786
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 4: get it. That's how you're gonna get your moment, moment moment,

787
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 4: And unfortunately she felt for it because it would have

788
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 4: it would have been even more more beautiful to say, listen,

789
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 4: there's a lot of brewing going on over here. But

790
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 4: guess what, I'm gonna give you that benefit of the

791
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 4: doubt and let's talk, sister. That was a missed opportunity

792
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 4: for me. And now how do you make it right

793
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 4: that people are on Wendy like just apologize or forgive her.

794
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 4: You talk about my mama, We're gonna have problems for

795
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,800
Speaker 4: a long time, right talking about my husband, my children.

796
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna forgive you whenever people say to forgive you.

797
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 4: So for me, it's kind of like, let time do

798
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 4: the healing and it will heal. Wendy's a very she's

799
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 4: a doctor, she's smart, she knows what she's doing. It

800
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,839
Speaker 4: will happen. It will happen. They're gonna let the guards down.

801
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 4: But you know what, there's gotta be an apology directly

802
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 4: to the mama.

803
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 3: Sorry, no, I agree, I agree, and look I'm on

804
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:45,959
Speaker 3: Wendy side on this one, okay.

805
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 1: And not to belabor the point, but what's funny is

806
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 1: but not.

807
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 4: As an amazing woman like you know. It's It's just it

808
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 4: was a bad, bad decision. That's what it is. Good

809
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,760
Speaker 4: people make bad decision. That's it. That's it.

810
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 3: And we love, we love. They're both queens. We love

811
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,320
Speaker 3: that guy exclusive for you. Because I never told anybody

812
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 3: nor my brain drops this.

813
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:05,959
Speaker 4: I am a Raene drop too, but tell me, yes,

814
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 4: Ray drop me and I'm Gerty five. Okay, boom, there

815
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:10,399
Speaker 4: we go, There we go.

816
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 3: I developed a show a couple of years ago based

817
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 3: on first generation Africans in Los Angeles. Mecca was a

818
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 3: part of my cast, and Mecca.

819
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 4: And she migrated her way to Patromac and this right.

820
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 3: So when I saw this, I'm gonna tell me. One

821
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 3: of my producers said, God, do you remember Ncca. She

822
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,359
Speaker 3: was a part of the cast for this show we

823
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 3: were developing for v H one about again first generation

824
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 3: Africans in America, and Mecca was a part of it.

825
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 3: So the Necca that I saw on the casting tape

826
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 3: and the Sizarel. She's funny and she's fabulous, So I

827
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,839
Speaker 3: was looking forward to seeing her on this and I'm

828
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 3: so proud of her.

829
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 4: And that's the problem. The thing is that she has

830
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 4: a missed opportunity because then it derailed her focus on

831
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 4: herself and her character and building herself up as one

832
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,360
Speaker 4: of the members of this group in Potomac and geared

833
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 4: it towards the HETERATIONI nation towards Wendy, and now it's

834
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,760
Speaker 4: a disconnect. But they're going to get it back together.

835
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 4: I know this. They're smart, they're beautiful. They will get

836
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 4: it together. Promise. I see it in the future. Hopefully

837
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 4: you do. I think so.

838
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 1: I don't see it happen.

839
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 4: That turns through, but I'll say this, yikes, it needs

840
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 4: to happen to happen. And that's what Miami does really good.

841
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 4: Say it to the people of the.

842
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 3: The reason why Miami Housewise is one of the best

843
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:41,359
Speaker 3: Housewives franchises is because you girls fight hard and love

844
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 3: heart and you don't belabor the issue carrying into the

845
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:48,360
Speaker 3: next season.

846
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: Y'all did it at the reunion.

847
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 4: Try not to. There's going to be lingering, little you know,

848
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,360
Speaker 4: and bruises right, and you know, giving it the example

849
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,439
Speaker 4: with Laursa, people are like, leave her alone, she doesn't

850
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 4: want to be your friend. Don't be her friend, and

851
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 4: it's kind of like, no, we bonded before, Like you

852
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 4: don't understand how human relationships is like that. When you

853
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 4: find a connection with someone, you're like, oh, I see

854
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 4: you in this way, and then something happens and then

855
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 4: you get hurt because you actually care some way, somehow

856
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 4: about this person. That's the reason why you react, right,

857
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 4: because you're hurt in some way when the person doesn't

858
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 4: see it for what it is and that I just

859
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 4: need you to boom boom boom for us to move forward.

860
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 4: That's where then the issues begin. So you know, that's

861
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 4: the relationship with me and Larsa. And at the reunion

862
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 4: you'll see how we hash it out or not, we'll see,

863
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 4: but that's what it is, and that's what these bombs

864
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 4: go on and on forever because you try to find

865
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 4: the benefit of the doubt and say to yourself, could

866
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 4: she have meant it? Did she really do it on purpose?

867
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,760
Speaker 4: Maybe not? What you try your best and whatever happens

868
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 4: after that is whatever happens after that.

869
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, And I'll say this again. I love Larsa.

870
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of the show. She's great for the show.

871
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 3: I was extremely disappointed and Larsa for sharing your diagnosis

872
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 3: with the girls prior to you having the opportunity to

873
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 3: do it herself. So that was one thing for me,

874
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 3: and then it just kept multiplying with and that was.

875
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,120
Speaker 4: The core of it. Is about the fact that I'm like,

876
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 4: I'm gonna give you you probably mete it, you're bad, okay,

877
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:23,359
Speaker 4: And then it was the again, again, again again again,

878
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 4: the perpetrating like perpetuating the whole situation. So anyway, you know,

879
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 4: it's tiring, guys, Okay, it's tiring, But this is what

880
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,040
Speaker 4: life is all about. It's about these ups and downs.

881
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 4: It's literally wavelengths, and you gotta take them as a come.

882
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 1: But when you saw that episode, the one.

883
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 4: Where she told, oh, like she give with everybody literally,

884
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:48,240
Speaker 4: I'm like, were you hurt? So hurt because as you see,

885
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 4: I'm thinking people are saying, oh my god, no she

886
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 4: met well, oh my gosh. You know that. The reason

887
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,919
Speaker 4: why we didn't say anything is because what hurt most

888
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 4: was the fact that she asked them to keep the

889
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 4: secret of her not keepping my secret. How are we

890
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 4: gonna how we gonna do that?

891
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 2: Oh?

892
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 4: Oh, don't tell anybody, Okay, I want to tell. I

893
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,200

922
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 4: I mean I went you to say for Russell probably

923
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 4: if he was gone, because we're never a part like

924
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:36,839
Speaker 4: it's true, so good. I'm I love a party. So parties, Yeah,

925
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 4: I love it. You like it, I love it. We're

926
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 4: not gonna stay on herb for too long. We'll move on.

927
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 4: But what are your thoughts on.

928
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 3: Larcess relationship with Marcus, because you obviously get to see

929
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,240
Speaker 3: way more than we as the fans.

930
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 4: I don't. I don't not invited to the parties, so

931
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 4: I don't know anything. I just know that they're you know,

932
00:45:55,280 --> 00:46:01,840
Speaker 4: they're they're together now. They were separated in the super

933
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,400
Speaker 4: Bowl there was a thing, and then they're they're back together.

934
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 4: I think, But I don't know. So I just don't know.

935
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 4: But I think that if they're together, I'm sure they're happy.

936
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 4: If they're not, I hope they wish them well. I don't.

937
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 3: Allegedly they yes, they're back together after having a Super

938
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,319
Speaker 3: Bowl momenta to.

939
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 4: You, I mean you know, I mean.

940
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 3: Because instead of watching Usher, we were tweeting another Haitian as.

941
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:34,400
Speaker 4: Well, not Haitian. He is sure he is not Haitian.

942
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 4: He's American. His father, Jason Drulo, is Haitian's father is

943
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 4: what is his name, Edmond? I know the last thing, sitation,

944
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 4: but I was told I was corrected back in high

945
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 4: school that he was not Haitian. Sure his name of

946
00:46:54,800 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 4: his father, he's a fourth. It's Usher, by the fourth, Edmond,

947
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,400
Speaker 4: your lives when I was okay, So when I was

948
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 4: growing up in high school or in junior high, it

949
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 4: was like a bad word to be Haitian, and people

950
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,879
Speaker 4: used to get beat up for being Haitian. The same

951
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:17,200
Speaker 4: with Jamaicans went through this. Haitian went through this Miami

952
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 4: in the eighties was like oh my god. But anyway,

953
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 4: the fact is that so maybe at that time people

954
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 4: were like, no, he in Haitian. He so for me,

955
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 4: I thought he was in Haitian. But anyway, Haitian. IM

956
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,319
Speaker 4: proud of it here. Good for you are sure, good

957
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,920
Speaker 4: for you? Love it? No, we love it, we love it,

958
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 4: we love it. So he needs to claim that a

959
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 4: little bit more. Let's hear something mixed with you know,

960
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 4: booty music that would do I mean, you know see

961
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 4: I mean then the super Bowl performance was like thirty

962
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 4: nine songs in like two seconds. Yeah. I was like,

963
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 4: you know, this is my confession. Every three seconds it

964
00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 4: was like a new song. I was like, that's a lot.

965
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 4: We're doing a lot of Medali this yere. Hey, you

966
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 4: guys are multi talented. He bought the whole Atlanta on

967
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 4: stage that I really liked. He didn't forget his path.

968
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 4: He bought Little Wayne, no, not the way little John,

969
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 4: Little John and Lula Chris and then Alicia that first key,

970
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 4: not the first key. But she's queen, she is. And

971
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 4: we all make mistakes, remember that, so don't judge. There

972
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 4: we go.

973
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 3: So, was it a mistake that Michael Jordan doesn't want

974
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,360
Speaker 3: to meet his son's girlfriend, Larsa.

975
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 4: Say allegedly because I don't know anything about that.

976
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 1: Well, he's on the video, and he's it's been said

977
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:30,879
Speaker 1: on the show.

978
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 3: And and she was on a podcast recently and and.

979
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:38,439
Speaker 1: It was it was she said it. She's never met him,

980
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 1: but his mother likes her.

981
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 4: But she never met him. After her divorce with Pippin

982
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,799
Speaker 4: good things clear, No, like she met him obviously because

983
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 4: they were in the same team, right they wants championships

984
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:57,239
Speaker 4: and rings that were amazing the bulls? What is going on,

985
00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,480
Speaker 4: mister King? Okay, technically you're right.

986
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:05,360
Speaker 3: Last did me Michael Jordan when her then husband Scottie Pippen, Yes,

987
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 3: was playing.

988
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 4: So you mean while she was with Marcus she was.

989
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 4: She hasn't met him as the girlfriend title.

990
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 3: She hasn't been reintroduced to Michael Jordan as his son's girlfriend. Okay,

991
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,480
Speaker 3: but she was introduced to him as his teammate's wife.

992
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 4: Gotcha, What is the question? What is the question?

993
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 3: Because you clarified ification, is that a red flag in

994
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 3: a relationship? If you if you wol and Rousse up

995
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 3: been and gat for twenty eight years, would it have

996
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,040
Speaker 3: been a red flag if you never met his father?

997
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 4: Listen, If I was with Russell for twenty eight years

998
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:41,839
Speaker 4: and I haven't met his parents, then we're good. So

999
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 4: my point is is that you see what I'm saying.

1000
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:45,719
Speaker 4: It's kind of like we're doing good over here, you're

1001
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:47,960
Speaker 4: doing good over there. So and they're grown, I mean

1002
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 4: they're real grown, grown, grow, grown, grown, right, so like

1003
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 4: Marsha's a grown ass woman in her fifties early fifties,

1004
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 4: and so that she doesn't need to meet anybody. She's

1005
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,279
Speaker 4: making a decision for herself in her life. He's making

1006
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 4: this decision. He's over thirty, he's thirty two, and she's fifty.

1007
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:06,440
Speaker 4: Grown boy, grown girl doing doing them? Do you boom boom,

1008

00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: So Russell, thank you.

1033
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 3: This is an exclusive because you guys have never done

1034
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 3: on a dual interview. So I'm honored that you decided

1035
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 3: to show up for your wife like we have seen.

1036
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 1: How nervous are you right now, Russell?

1037
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just not a common thing for me.

1038
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:52,280
Speaker 3: So when Gerdi came home and said, baby, I mean, Gerdy,

1039
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 3: heyby guess what the Bravo second has.

1040
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,720
Speaker 1: Caught me and they wanted me to be of Miami.

1041
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:06,000
Speaker 4: He was kind of like the call but it was

1042
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 4: it was, like I said, it was inevitable. I'm not

1043
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 4: going to tell you how it happened.

1044
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 1: But it was very kind of like it was meant

1045
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 1: to be.

1046
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,800
Speaker 4: It was meant to be, kind of like it's it's time,

1047
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:14,600
Speaker 4: it's time.

1048
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 3: But what did you think, Russell, Because you are a

1049
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 3: very private guy. You're Scorpio, and one thing I know

1050
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 3: about scorpio men who decide to be with somebody that

1051
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 3: is a star. They loved the background and they loved

1052
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 3: you know, supporting their partner but not being in the limelight.

1053
00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 4: So was it challenging for you to know.

1054
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:40,960
Speaker 3: That when you appear on a real Housewise franchise your

1055
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 3: life changes forever.

1056
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 6: Obviously it was a big decision, but it's you know,

1057
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:52,400
Speaker 6: we've we've been together for so long that when she

1058
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:57,359
Speaker 6: was approached, I think she mentioned it before. Years prior,

1059
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 6: she had been approached for, you know, insitively for different things,

1060
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:04,399
Speaker 6: and we were like, no to it. I didn't want

1061
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 6: to do it. I don't want to have anything to

1062
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 6: do with that. But you know, I can't hold I

1063
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:11,600
Speaker 6: couldn't hold her back anymore.

1064
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:14,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then those other projects were more about like

1065
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:15,920
Speaker 4: that Jeff Flui is set up of like you're going

1066
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:17,799
Speaker 4: to be the planner and we want to see everything behind.

1067
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 4: It was kind of like I have to be responsible

1068
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 4: for six employees being on camera. It was just too

1069
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:27,880
Speaker 4: much at stake. The Housewife, you know, platform is just

1070
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:29,759
Speaker 4: a balance of all of that, you know what I mean.

1071
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 4: So you get a sprinkle to this, and don't sprinkle

1072
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,560
Speaker 4: to that, and sprinkle this anything. Ensemble cast so it

1073
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,359
Speaker 4: was more I think comfortable for me to start out

1074
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:38,879
Speaker 4: on national TV being kind of like in this kind

1075
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:41,359
Speaker 4: of format. And I had watched it before I knew

1076
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,320
Speaker 4: the risk. But I'm like, we don't really have anything

1079
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,080
Speaker 4: closet and a lot of people do. And I'm kind

1229
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:40,520
Speaker 4: water bottle placement in the car. No like that was.

1230
01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:43,480
Speaker 4: I was like, stop, drop the ego. So he has

1231
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 4: this water bottle jug so ugly, and he puts it

1232
01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,280
Speaker 4: right there next to where he drives. I have my

1233
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 4: juice that he made for me, my co press juice,

1234
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:53,640
Speaker 4: and also another drink that can't fit anywhere else except

1235
01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:56,760
Speaker 4: for those two compartments. And he I throw his drug

1236
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 4: in the back. No, no, no, he wants his drug

1237
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:01,480
Speaker 4: right there next to him, and I'm like, but you're

1238
01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,240
Speaker 4: not drinking it. So we get into this argument. I'm like,

1239
01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:06,760
Speaker 4: drop the ego, but it's ego the moment someone's like

1240
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:08,480
Speaker 4: I'm the man, I'm supposed to do this, and people

1241
01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:10,400
Speaker 4: start role playing and thinking that you can't do this

1242
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 4: or you shouldn't do that because I'm the man or

1243
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:15,800
Speaker 4: you're the woman. It's not gonna work. Drop the gender

1244
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:19,600
Speaker 4: roles and drop the egos. You will see how much

1245
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:22,479
Speaker 4: smoother life works. If I'm not home and something's gotta

1246
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:25,360
Speaker 4: get cleaned or cooked, He'll be it's not even like

1247
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 4: can you please it? It's done. Those are his children,

1248
01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:32,400
Speaker 4: like drop the gender roles, as if like you're too

1249
01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:34,320
Speaker 4: good to do this or you're too good to say sorry.

1250
01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:37,840
Speaker 4: That is I think the biggest issue in relationships. And

1251
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:39,240
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people who are divorced are

1252
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 4: probably like, damn, I could have worked that out, couldn't I?

1253
01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 4: And then you know it's too late so for us.

1254
01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:46,120
Speaker 4: And another thing is that we don't use the D

1255
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 4: word ever. Is we never say I'm going to divorce

1256
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:50,840
Speaker 4: you if you don't do this. You never threaten people

1257
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 4: like that, especially if you love them, go ahead.

1258
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:56,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, we I mean from the beginning, we kind of

1259
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 6: knew that, hey, we wanted to be together, and you know,

1260
01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 6: we she wanted to do one thing. We wound up

1261
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:07,479
Speaker 6: staying home together and let's see how this this plays out.

1262
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 6: And when we decided, yeah, we're gonna.

1263
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 2: Make this official, get married, start a.

1264
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:16,080
Speaker 6: Life together, we already knew. We already knew all these things.

1265
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:20,280
Speaker 6: So it's never like we argue with each other and

1266
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 6: we're like, oh, I'm gonna leave you. That's never never

1267
01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 6: even comes into the picture.

1268
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 4: It was always like, we're together forever, So now now

1269
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:29,280
Speaker 4: what how do we navigate?

1270
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:31,800
Speaker 2: So, like she said, egos are a big thing.

1271
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:39,520
Speaker 6: Obviously everyone has disagreements, but you have to put your

1272
01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 6: ego aside and you have to come to a compromise.

1273
01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:45,760
Speaker 6: I mean at the beginning of our marriage, you know,

1274
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 6: we start living together all the time, Oh you need to.

1275
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,440
Speaker 2: Clean this, or you should clean that, or you need.

1276
01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 4: To do this, or you need you're not doing enough

1277
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:54,720
Speaker 4: of this or whatever.

1278
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:58,600
Speaker 6: Like at some point someone's got to say, you know what, hey, okay, yeah,

1279
01:02:58,640 --> 01:02:59,000
Speaker 6: I'll do.

1280
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:02,600
Speaker 4: This and want to do that. And that's actually what

1281
01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:06,880
Speaker 4: is sexier than ever. It's it's kind of like, damn,

1282
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 4: he's a take control type of man. I come home, like,

1283
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 4: you don't understand how much I was traveling for work.

1284
01:03:12,760 --> 01:03:14,360
Speaker 4: I was in Portugal one minute, then I'm in the

1285
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:16,520
Speaker 4: cop or the next minute, like I can't keep the

1286
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:18,280
Speaker 4: do this for the kids, and do you know do

1287
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 4: that for the kids. And so I'll come home and

1288
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:21,960
Speaker 4: he's like, that's taking care of I got I got this,

1289
01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:24,280
Speaker 4: I got you, I got this. And that became such

1290
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,840
Speaker 4: a thing of like, damn, he's really invested in us,

1291
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,280
Speaker 4: in me, in himself. It's self proud at the end

1292
01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:31,800
Speaker 4: of the day to know that your family is good

1293
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 4: like that, you know. So, I think when people reshift

1294
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:38,200
Speaker 4: their train of thought and how they see themselves. It's

1295
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:40,360
Speaker 4: a it's amazing with the growth that they can do

1296
01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 4: within themselves as well, because I look at him now

1297
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,919
Speaker 4: and I'm like, it's weird, but it's like it gets better.

1298
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,640
Speaker 4: I'm like, damn, Like he's such a growing to this

1299
01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:51,960
Speaker 4: man that I never even imagine I needed.

1300
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:54,800
Speaker 6: And that that's all the that's all the you know,

1301
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:58,720
Speaker 6: secondary stuff. Of course, you got to like this person.

1302
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:00,440
Speaker 6: You gotta be friends with this person. You have to

1303
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:02,680
Speaker 6: love this person. I mean, you have to be attracted

1304
01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:05,960
Speaker 6: to this person, and then all that other stuff you

1305
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 6: figure out. You have to be willing to figure out.

1306
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you go ahead, I'm sorry, Yeah no.

1307
01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:13,440
Speaker 3: But the one thing that I do love about you

1308
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:15,600
Speaker 3: is the fact that, as we talk about general roles,

1309
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:22,919
Speaker 3: obviously there isn't unfortunately a lot of husbands who who

1310
01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 3: are like I don't mind taking care of the kids, cooking, sometimes,

1311
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:29,320
Speaker 3: cleaning some times, pick them up from school. You are

1312
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:34,919
Speaker 3: a very active father, like extremely active, and your active husband.

1313
01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:37,640
Speaker 1: Do you believe that.

1314
01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:41,080
Speaker 3: In some marriages, like Gertie is saying, is that is

1315
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 3: a toxic masculinity, this sort of machoism are some of

1316
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:48,760
Speaker 3: the reasons why you know, these relationships don't work because

1317
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 3: did you ever fall into that mindset of like.

1318
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:53,480
Speaker 4: Well, you know, why am I doing this?

1319
01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:55,600
Speaker 3: Or did you were you always like I love her

1320
01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:57,160
Speaker 3: and this is what's best for the family.

1321
01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 2: Like I said, you figure things out.

1322
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:04,440
Speaker 6: Yes, Like I can't say specifically what was what, but yes,

1323
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:07,960
Speaker 6: at some points I did have that mentality like why

1324
01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 6: do you want me to do this?

1325
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:12,240
Speaker 2: You know it's not my job, but as.

1326
01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:16,200
Speaker 6: You know, I don't want this stupid little thing to

1327
01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 6: cause us to fracture in a way that we're not

1328
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,360
Speaker 6: going to be together because I want to be with her,

1329
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:23,160
Speaker 6: you know, So you have to make that decision. Is

1330
01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:27,640
Speaker 6: this stupid little thing, you know, worth it to fight

1331
01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:29,320
Speaker 6: with this person all the time.

1332
01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 4: And we're lucky that we have parents that are still married.

1333
01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:34,880
Speaker 4: His fat father and mother I have been married now

1334
01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 4: fifty years. We just celebrated them this week. My parents

1335
01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,080
Speaker 4: are over fifty, you know, so we have good role models.

1336
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:42,360
Speaker 4: And his father is in the kitchen cooking, his mom

1337
01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:44,840
Speaker 4: will be cleaning, and they you know, vice versa my parents.

1338
01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:47,040
Speaker 4: My father does a cooking and the cleaning. My mother

1339
01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:50,480
Speaker 4: is not that type. Very fashionable though, but you know,

1340
01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 4: everyone finds their niche in the household. You know, It's

1341
01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:56,280
Speaker 4: so funny because look, when I was traveling and doing

1342
01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 4: all these events, he was holding it down. Now I'm

1343
01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:01,040
Speaker 4: home a lot more because I've chosen to be more

1344
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:03,280
Speaker 4: present from my family and so forth. So now I'm like,

1345
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:04,480
Speaker 4: what do you want for dinner? But do you want

1346
01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:07,320
Speaker 4: to It's I'm back to where, you know, the housewife role.

1347
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,840
Speaker 4: So it all works out. But once you drop the

1348
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 4: ego and just are a team player, because you know,

1349
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 4: you want to sleep good at night, wake up in

1350
01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:19,560
Speaker 4: the morning good, you know, like happy wife, happy life,

1351
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:22,160
Speaker 4: for real, for real. You know, we are the matriarch,

1352
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,520
Speaker 4: and we are you know, the stability of a household

1353
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:26,919
Speaker 4: in many ways. And and for us to get that

1354
01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 4: right hand, that says I got you. What do you need?

1355
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 4: The whole thing? It just helps support that system and

1356
01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:33,440
Speaker 4: it creates a better, stronger together.

1357
01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 3: So no, and we saw that because obviously, I mean,

1358
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:41,920
Speaker 3: listen for you to showcase of the world your breast

1359
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:52,240
Speaker 3: cancer diagnosis and to to see the the fear that

1360
01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:54,840
Speaker 3: you had on your face in the earlier part of

1361
01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:56,440
Speaker 3: the season when.

1362
01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:58,280
Speaker 1: You got the news.

1363
01:06:58,640 --> 01:07:05,520
Speaker 3: Right, yes, talk to me about the moment that you

1364
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:09,560
Speaker 3: heard the news and the thought process and having to

1365
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:10,360
Speaker 3: tell your husband.

1366
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:13,360
Speaker 4: He was there with me for the whole part. I

1367
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,360
Speaker 4: wouldn't even have a phone call without him. So when

1368
01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:18,080
Speaker 4: my doctor called me, my college just called me. I

1369
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 4: was in Sant Bart's and that was when he was

1370
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:22,280
Speaker 4: about to tell me that I had the first There

1371
01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:24,000
Speaker 4: were two types of cancers that I had, by the way,

1372
01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:27,400
Speaker 4: so there was the first one. I'm like, stop, I

1373
01:07:27,440 --> 01:07:30,880
Speaker 4: need to merge Rustle. Nothing happens before you got the news.

1374
01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:34,120
Speaker 4: You want to wow. Of course she was absolutely.

1375
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:38,640
Speaker 6: She went in for her mammogram and then you know,

1376
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:43,080
Speaker 6: which she does regularly, but this time they asked her

1377
01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:46,200
Speaker 6: to come back. So I remember during that phase, I

1378
01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 6: was bringing her and in my mind, I'm like, this

1379
01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:50,600
Speaker 6: is weird.

1380
01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,000
Speaker 2: You know, we're going back multiple times.

1381
01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 4: He never thinks.

1382
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 6: But then I'm like, you know, everything fine, There's going

1383
01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:58,480
Speaker 6: to be nothing, just like it always is.

1384
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:01,160
Speaker 2: So then she was out of town.

1385
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:04,520
Speaker 6: And she calls me and I could hear it in

1386
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:07,840
Speaker 6: her voice something was wrong, and she's like, oh uh,

1387
01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:10,680
Speaker 6: you know here doctors such and such as on the

1388
01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:14,520
Speaker 6: line emerging, And so I knew right away what it was.

1389
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:16,800
Speaker 4: But we didn't know how about you know, like you

1390
01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:18,519
Speaker 4: just got worse and worse and worse and worse and worse.

1391
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:22,360
Speaker 4: But he was there every step of the way. It's

1392
01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 4: like he didn't go to work for a month, like

1393
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:29,720
Speaker 4: literally like every over a month. It was just unbelievable.

1394
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, So, I mean many people go.

1395
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:34,960
Speaker 4: And he hates to take the credit, he says, which

1396
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 4: is true. Like you say, everyone goes through it and

1397
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:38,160
Speaker 4: all over the world.

1398
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 2: You know that's true. So you just you got to

1399
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:42,160
Speaker 2: keep moving forward.

1400
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,640
Speaker 4: Like he doesn't like this title of like he's the

1401
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,800
Speaker 4: best husband in the world because everybody's doing it. If

1402
01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:49,559
Speaker 4: my mother I'm not even going to say the words,

1403
01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:52,519
Speaker 4: but like my father would step in his We see

1404
01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,280
Speaker 4: this every day. So he hates the fact that it's

1405
01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:54,720
Speaker 4: kind of like this.

1406
01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:56,880
Speaker 3: But I disagree with that, and I'm going to say

1407
01:08:56,880 --> 01:09:00,000
Speaker 3: this and this is no disrespect. We unfortunately don't see

1408
01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:03,519
Speaker 3: it every day, and we unfortunately, you know, don't see

1409
01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:08,040
Speaker 3: a lot of husbands, yes, drop what they're doing and

1410
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:13,920
Speaker 3: to be there for their wife. So listen, I I

1411
01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 3: love that you feel like I'm a husband and this

1412
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 3: is what I'm supposed to do. Unfortunately, there are tons

1413
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:28,960
Speaker 3: of wives who have husbands that don't do the necessary parts.

1414
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,400
Speaker 3: And the reason why we appreciate you and all the

1415
01:09:31,479 --> 01:09:33,240
Speaker 3: husbands in the world who have who have done what

1416
01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:36,400
Speaker 3: you're doing is because we even don't even see this

1417
01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:39,160
Speaker 3: a lot on reality television. On my show Love and

1418
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:41,000
Speaker 3: Matter tians Bill Kimmy.

1419
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:45,400
Speaker 4: Oh Kimmy, Yes, honestly, she was first. I gotta tell you,

1420
01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:47,160
Speaker 4: I got to the pops. I have to because I

1421
01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:49,040
Speaker 4: remember I think I may have called you in the room.

1422
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:52,200
Speaker 4: I watched it and I was like, who could I

1423
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:55,479
Speaker 4: ever do that? Like, and then look what happened to me?

1424
01:09:55,560 --> 01:09:57,559
Speaker 4: And I was like, she can do it. I can

1425
01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,000
Speaker 4: do it. And I'm telling you right now it was

1426
01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:02,400
Speaker 4: because I kiddy, I'm getting oh my god, I even

1427
01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:05,000
Speaker 4: reached out to you or her and even her I

1428
01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 4: can't remember how it was like wow, PTSD like right

1429
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:09,840
Speaker 4: now because I hate going back there, right, but I

1430
01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 4: remember seeing the scene. You were the first one to

1431
01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:15,360
Speaker 4: do it, and then I was like could I ever even? Wow?

1432
01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 4: How did she do?

1433
01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:16,960
Speaker 5: How could she?

1434
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden it was my turn,

1435
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,360
Speaker 4: and I'm like, we're doing this damn thing. We're gonna

1436
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 4: freaking do it, and production. Thank you to people like

1437
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 4: you that stayed in the back. You gave the respect

1438
01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:30,599
Speaker 4: you weren't in It was kind of like, just let

1439
01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:32,479
Speaker 4: it play and act as if you were not in

1440
01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:34,639
Speaker 4: the room. And that was the courage that I got

1441
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,000
Speaker 4: to be able to just continue with that scene. I

1442
01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:38,720
Speaker 4: was breaking. I was like I wanted to move, and

1443
01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 4: then I look back, I'm looking at the hair and

1444
01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,800
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, just stick it out. Stick it out.

1445
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:45,840
Speaker 4: This feels safe. All we need is a safe, safe space.

1446
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:48,479
Speaker 4: All we need is to save space and people some

1447
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:51,400
Speaker 4: people don't understand that. So when we talk about sharing

1448
01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:55,040
Speaker 4: it with the world, and because you don't see it enough,

1449
01:10:55,640 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 4: it is happening. But the problem is that some people

1450
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:00,680
Speaker 4: make it seem like it's the play that we have

1451
01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:04,559
Speaker 4: and shame people that have cancer and you look weird.

1452
01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:06,200
Speaker 4: Why did you shake your head? Oh why don't you

1453
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,679
Speaker 4: put a wig on? Because I have hot flashes every

1454
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:13,519
Speaker 4: twenty seconds. That's why I have a sorry, that's why

1455
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,000
Speaker 4: I have a fan on me. But people don't see

1456
01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:19,320
Speaker 4: the little things. Oh why don't you cover your scar? No, honey,

1457
01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:23,439
Speaker 4: this is a battle scar. That's my pride. People ask

1458
01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:26,240
Speaker 4: this dumb questions without thinking like this maybe a reason

1459
01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:29,160
Speaker 4: let me let her give her a safe space. And

1460
01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:32,160
Speaker 4: that's really big, and that's the reason why you don't

1461
01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:32,920
Speaker 4: see it often.

1462
01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:36,840
Speaker 3: No, it is big, and and thank you for sharing

1463
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:40,920
Speaker 3: that too, because it just it takes you to a

1464
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:44,280
Speaker 3: place that you, just like you said, you don't think

1465
01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:47,160
Speaker 3: is going to happen to you. And not only do

1466
01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,519
Speaker 3: you not think it's going to happen to you, not

1467
01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:52,120
Speaker 3: while I'm filming a reality shop.

1468
01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:54,839
Speaker 4: We found out a week before. So the first episode

1469
01:11:54,840 --> 01:11:57,760
Speaker 4: you see new Horizontals party and people are coming up

1470
01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:59,479
Speaker 4: to me with some bs about you did this to

1471
01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:03,080
Speaker 4: me and you call me fake. It's kind of like, girl,

1472
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go get a drink over there because I

1473
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:08,720
Speaker 4: can't deal with this minute detail when I'm dealing with

1474
01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:11,679
Speaker 4: a monster here, you know. But when you're not ready

1475
01:12:11,680 --> 01:12:14,439
Speaker 4: to share, no one could tell you what to do,

1476
01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:15,920
Speaker 4: when to do it, where to do it. It's just

1477
01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,679
Speaker 4: a thing that's just kind of like it feels good

1478
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:21,400
Speaker 4: now now it doesn't. So you know when people say

1479
01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:24,560
Speaker 4: stage the dropping the news to cancel, do Larensa? Of

1480
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:28,680
Speaker 4: course I didn't. Of course, it's just emotional reaction of

1481
01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:30,680
Speaker 4: like this is what I'm going through. You know, so

1482
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:34,519
Speaker 4: you'll see, you know, the reunion. We talk about all

1483
01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 4: those those kinks, you know, and how you know, we

1484
01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:40,519
Speaker 4: try to we try to figure things out, you know,

1485
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,000
Speaker 4: but it's it's it's a lot, it's a lot. The

1486
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:45,160
Speaker 4: reunion is gonna be a lot for people to watch.

1487
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:50,160
Speaker 3: And yeah, yeah, well, speaking of things being hard to watch, obviously, Russell,

1488
01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:52,680
Speaker 3: we saw the finale. It was hard for you to

1489
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 3: watch your wife have a petty argument and again, we

1490
01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:02,280
Speaker 3: love Larsa. We'll see what happened to bring I was

1491
01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:07,480
Speaker 3: so shocked at the level of insensitivity that she displayed

1492
01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:11,840
Speaker 3: during that conversation, knowing that you are going through this

1493
01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:18,639
Speaker 3: battle the camera campaigning to Russell watching you, protecting you

1494
01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:22,559
Speaker 3: from a distance, and then finally saying enough is enough.

1495
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:25,719
Speaker 3: So Russell talk to us about being in that moment

1496
01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:28,360
Speaker 3: and what you were seeing that led you to be like,

1497
01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:29,799
Speaker 3: this ship has to stop.

1498
01:13:32,320 --> 01:13:34,800
Speaker 6: I didn't know what they were talking about, so I

1499
01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:38,840
Speaker 6: was I was a distance away talking to someone else,

1500
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:42,280
Speaker 6: having a conversation, and then I heard things piping up,

1501
01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,600
Speaker 6: getting louder, getting louder. So that's when I, you know,

1502
01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:49,920
Speaker 6: started focusing in see what was going on, and you know,

1503
01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:54,799
Speaker 6: the women, they get into arguments often.

1504
01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:55,480
Speaker 2: I guess.

1505
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:01,880
Speaker 6: When I saw her, you know, take her hat off,

1506
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:05,599
Speaker 6: and then I heard a couple of things that I.

1507
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:07,360
Speaker 2: Thought were, you know, over the top.

1508
01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:11,759
Speaker 6: So I went over there with the My only intention

1509
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:14,320
Speaker 6: of going over there was to get Gerty away.

1510
01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:16,400
Speaker 4: Once we've come off, he's like, well, what's going on

1511
01:14:16,439 --> 01:14:16,960
Speaker 4: over I.

1512
01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:19,120
Speaker 2: Didn't say anything to anyone else. I was talking to Gerty.

1513
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 6: I said, what are you doing, Let's get get out

1514
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:25,160
Speaker 6: of here, and she got up, We're going away, And

1515
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:31,439
Speaker 6: then a certain individual kept pursuing. That's the only reason

1516
01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:36,080
Speaker 6: why I said what I said to that individual, and

1517
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:38,720
Speaker 6: I wouldn't have said anything else to her, but she

1518
01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 6: kept talking to Gerty and she even was talking to me.

1519
01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:45,840
Speaker 2: So I tried to, you know, keep my composure and

1520
01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:47,519
Speaker 2: just get Gerty out of there. And that was it.

1521
01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:49,000
Speaker 2: That's all that happened.

1522
01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:51,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're not those people. We don't like mess. We

1523
01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,280
Speaker 4: don't like mess, you know. But you know, obviously remove

1524
01:14:54,320 --> 01:14:56,240
Speaker 4: yourself in the situation if you have to. What the

1525
01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:59,760
Speaker 4: first That's all that was my especially considering I was

1526
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:01,080
Speaker 4: having literally the next.

1527
01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:04,840
Speaker 6: Day, like this is not important, this energy is not good.

1528
01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:06,200
Speaker 2: Yeah for you, right, now.

1529
01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:08,639
Speaker 4: But you know, it's so funny because as much as

1530
01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 4: people say that to me, and it's true, you're right

1531
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:13,280
Speaker 4: because you want to try to keep yourself in a

1532
01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:16,759
Speaker 4: zen place because you know, stress does not cause cancer

1533
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:19,519
Speaker 4: rule number one, but it can it can contribute to

1534
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:23,920
Speaker 4: your environment of health around a healing with cancer. So

1535
01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:27,280
Speaker 4: for me, what I've learned now is that I will

1536
01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:30,679
Speaker 4: release what no longer serves me, period and a story

1537
01:15:31,479 --> 01:15:35,440
Speaker 4: I don't like something. Hey, I don't like that. Period.

1538
01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:40,600
Speaker 4: My housekeeper just recently let her go why took a

1539
01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:42,960
Speaker 4: bag of cookies? It wasn't about the cookie. It was

1540
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,240
Speaker 4: about the fact that, honey, you signed an NDA. You

01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:56,560
Speaker 4: Only nobody else eats it. And she says, oh, I

1546
01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:58,280
Speaker 4: don't know. It was just there. And I say, you sure,

1547
01:15:58,280 --> 01:16:00,479
Speaker 4: because if you will like the cookie, I'll get more

1548
01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:03,400
Speaker 4: cookies for us. And it's okay, No, it wasn't me,

1549
01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:09,479
Speaker 4: rewind yep, she and here's the chewing, so liars don't

1551
01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:15,000
Speaker 4: my new way of life. So get ready for Season

Speaker 4: it out.

1556
01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:30,800
Speaker 1: Are you too able to forgive Larsa for her behavior?

1557
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 4: You'll see at the reunion how things evolve. He's not

1558
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:36,920
Speaker 4: even he's not even part of it. Like you know,

1559
01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:40,040
Speaker 4: he said what he said, which was literally, don't be disrespectful.

1560

Speaker 3: Do you think people and again I again I'm on

1566

01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:08,120
Speaker 3: Are are are there people or even Larsa? Are they

1568
01:17:08,200 --> 01:17:10,080
Speaker 3: trying to say like, oh my god, you spoke to

1569
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:10,880
Speaker 3: a woman this way.

1570
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 4: And the first thing that I ever saw, we multiple

1571
01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:15,519
Speaker 4: things I've seen, is like you know, I'm usually people say,

1572
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:18,360
Speaker 4: I usually don't like men in you know, business, And

1573
01:17:18,439 --> 01:17:20,559
Speaker 4: the way that Russell handled it was not. He wasn't

1574
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:24,360
Speaker 4: like back and forth trying to elevate. He literally removed me,

1575
01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:27,160
Speaker 4: and he says, just be respectful, like just consider the

1576
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:31,839
Speaker 4: situation timing like queuing captain, and that was it. Everyone's

1577
01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:33,680
Speaker 4: praising him for the way he handled it is what

1578
01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:34,080
Speaker 4: I've seen.

1579
01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:38,120
Speaker 2: I didn't feel good, you know, doing that. I didn't

1580
01:17:38,439 --> 01:17:42,120
Speaker 2: feel good afterwards doing that. Yeah, oh you didn't because

1581
01:17:42,120 --> 01:17:46,719
Speaker 2: I don't. I shouldn't have to. You shouldn't talk to anyone,

1582
01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:49,360
Speaker 2: you know, a woman that way. You know.

1583
01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:52,960
Speaker 6: I don't know how I was put in that situation

1584
01:17:53,160 --> 01:17:55,560
Speaker 6: like that person should have seen it.

1585
01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:57,000
Speaker 2: I was already taking.

1586
01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:01,680
Speaker 4: Gerty away, yeah, and it was over usually that That's.

1587
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:04,200
Speaker 2: How I felt. It was like why yeah, So that's

1588
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:05,360
Speaker 2: why I kept it as it was.

1589
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:08,800
Speaker 6: I wasn't gonna do anything or you know, say anything derogatory.

1590
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:11,360
Speaker 6: That's not no, no, I just wanted to get Girty away,

1591
01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:12,360
Speaker 6: yeah yeah.

1592
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 2: And I even even even with that, you know, that's

1593
01:18:16,280 --> 01:18:16,720
Speaker 2: all I did.

1594
01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:18,960
Speaker 4: I still, you know, because he's not that guy. He's

1595
01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:21,599
Speaker 4: literally you know, this is not where this is not

1596
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:23,960
Speaker 4: not who we are. So I just I was glad

1597
01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:25,599
Speaker 4: that he was just what he was and that's it.

1598
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:28,559
Speaker 4: And but people have praised the way he tried to

1599
01:18:28,680 --> 01:18:33,360
Speaker 4: obviously just you know, protect me. So yeah, protect that's it,

1600
01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:34,880
Speaker 4: you know, and yeah, that's it.

1601
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:38,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, no iron people who felt that like and again

1602
01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 3: I worked on shelves where sometimes the men insert themselves unprovoked.

1603
01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:46,160
Speaker 1: And I felt like you were defending your wife.

1604
01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:48,400
Speaker 3: And I was happy, even docorn Cole saying, that's my

1605
01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:52,439
Speaker 3: best friend, Gerdi. These five minutes leave her alone.

1606
01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:54,800
Speaker 4: So I do appreciate that around me.

1607
01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:58,200
Speaker 3: And look, the most beautiful moment of this whole season

1608
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:04,679
Speaker 3: was the shaving of the head and seeing Russell how

1609
01:19:04,960 --> 01:19:08,880
Speaker 3: you were there for her even in that sense, and

1610
01:19:08,920 --> 01:19:11,439
Speaker 3: that's listen. I know you don't like compliments, and I

1611
01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:16,800
Speaker 3: respect it, but again, yeah, it's it goes to show

1612
01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:19,400
Speaker 3: you the the love that you have for your best

1613
01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:23,400
Speaker 3: friend who also is your wife and the mother of

1614
01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:27,439
Speaker 3: your children. And to see the moment of you cutting

1615
01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:32,000
Speaker 3: the braids and then shaving it off, were you were

1616
01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:37,400
Speaker 3: you nervous like going into into that moment knowing that

1617
01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:39,599
Speaker 3: this was going to be captured because it's.

1618
01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:41,679
Speaker 1: Such listen all the respect.

1619
01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:43,800
Speaker 3: You didn't have to show that to us because it's

1620
01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:44,719
Speaker 3: such an intimate moment.

1621
01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:51,880
Speaker 6: I know, was I nervous. I wasn't nervous. I just wanted,

1622
01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:54,960
Speaker 6: you know, throughout everything. I just wanted to make things

1623
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:58,120
Speaker 6: for her easier, you know, and make her, you know,

1624
01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:01,960
Speaker 6: as comfortable as possible throughout everything.

1625
01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:05,880
Speaker 2: So if she, you know, she won.

1626
01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:09,919
Speaker 6: She made the decision, you know, with with my advice

1627
01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:12,720
Speaker 6: and with others advice, that she should cut her hair

1628
01:20:12,760 --> 01:20:15,480
Speaker 6: before starting the chemo, because.

1629
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:17,280
Speaker 4: That was actually I really wanted to do that. That

1630
01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:19,200
Speaker 4: was very wary for me to have control.

1631
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, she didn't want to have to see her hair

1632
01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:23,800
Speaker 6: falling out a way and go through that process.

1633
01:20:24,240 --> 01:20:26,559
Speaker 2: Just let's just shave it and then you don't have

1634
01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 2: to deal with that.

1635
01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:29,799
Speaker 4: Eighty percent of people shave their head before chemo actually,

1636
01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:33,120
Speaker 4: so for those reasons, right, of course, it's about control,

1637
01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:35,280
Speaker 4: like and me being a control freak. I'm a party

1638
01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:37,240
Speaker 4: planner and I'm the top party planner of the world,

1639
01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:39,680
Speaker 4: and I'm sitting here like, damn, I'm being told when

1640
01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:41,840
Speaker 4: to go to this, when to do this blood work.

1641
01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:43,960
Speaker 4: All I just go in and out of consciousness is

1642
01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:45,720
Speaker 4: what I like to call it in doctor's deportments and

1643
01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:47,960
Speaker 4: lay down and do this and you know, take this pill.

1644
01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:50,439
Speaker 4: And I'm like, I can't. I'm in a box. They

1645
01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:52,280
Speaker 4: put me in a box. And this whole I thought

1646
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:54,519
Speaker 4: for myself to be out of the box when I

1647
01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:56,479
Speaker 4: came to this country, and now I'm being put back

1648
01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:59,960
Speaker 4: into a box. I'm like, no, I'm gonna me, pick me,

1649
01:21:00,120 --> 01:21:02,280
Speaker 4: pick me, pick me. I'm gonna cut my hair. I'll

1650
01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:05,280
Speaker 4: do that one. So it was about controlling something in

1651
01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:09,040
Speaker 4: this whole narrative. Look at you now, look at me now,

1652
01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:12,639
Speaker 4: cancer free, cancer free. I just did my sixth month.

1653
01:21:13,320 --> 01:21:15,960
Speaker 4: I did my six month memmo grandma to sound and

1654
01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:18,360
Speaker 4: that was also a lump in my throat. So every

1655
01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:21,160
Speaker 4: sixth month. But people again don't understand, is that it's

1656
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:23,840
Speaker 4: not like, oh, life is amazing. Life is amazing, and

1657
01:21:23,880 --> 01:21:25,800
Speaker 4: you won't leave it out loud. But every sixth month

1658
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:29,679
Speaker 4: is a test of time that says knock knock, okay,

1659
01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:32,439
Speaker 4: nobody's there. Cancer is not there. So it's every six

1660
01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:34,840
Speaker 4: month that I have to hold my breath. You know,

1661
01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:37,439
Speaker 4: I'm on hormone therapy. I get shots every month, I

1662
01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:41,639
Speaker 4: take pills every day having a hysterectomy in a couple

1663
01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:44,640
Speaker 4: of days, in two days, you know, so it's not

1664
01:21:44,800 --> 01:21:47,400
Speaker 4: never over. I have my scars to prove everything that

1665
01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:50,160
Speaker 4: I do. It's like, oh, yeah, I have cancer. Yeah

1666
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:50,960
Speaker 4: I forgot about that.

1667
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:51,080
Speaker 5: You know.

1668
01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,560
Speaker 4: It's always a reminder. So it's never over. But I

1669
01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:55,400
Speaker 4: don't victimize myself in that way at all, because I

1670
01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:58,120
Speaker 4: feel like it's like I'm standing here and I'm rocking

1671
01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:01,040
Speaker 4: this ball head and people are asking me, am I

1672
01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:03,360
Speaker 4: keeping it or not? At the reunion, I answered that question.

1673
01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:05,080
Speaker 1: Okay, that'd be one of my questions.

1674
01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:11,040
Speaker 4: So the reunion, I answered that question, and yeah, it's

1675
01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:13,880
Speaker 4: it's a girty two point zero and it's amazing. It's

1676
01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:16,920
Speaker 4: really amazing. I never thought it would be who I

1677
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:21,440
Speaker 4: am today, what I am today, and it's just an evolution.

1678
01:22:21,760 --> 01:22:22,760
Speaker 4: It's no.

01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:56,760
Speaker 3: Hoey because answer and again this is basically you know,

1688
01:22:56,960 --> 01:22:58,920
Speaker 3: you know my mom had breast cancer, she passed away

1689
01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:02,240
Speaker 3: because she decided to do her situation differently, and then

1690
01:23:02,320 --> 01:23:05,040
Speaker 3: seeing Kimmy have cancer, so I know that it can

1691
01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:07,559
Speaker 3: make you tire and exhausted and all those things. But

1692
01:23:07,720 --> 01:23:11,559
Speaker 3: I have to say to you, miss Thing, you did

1693
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:14,800
Speaker 3: not skip a beat. You are so damn beautiful. You

1694
01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:20,479

01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:24,960
Speaker 3: it that way. You look so good. And you did

1696
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:29,599
Speaker 3: not allow this to taint your personality. And one thing

1697
01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:32,480
Speaker 3: I know for sure being this health not that I am.

1698
01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:37,400
Speaker 3: Your happiness is also a healing factor.

1699
01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,880
Speaker 4: In all of this release, but no longer in every

1700
01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:45,240
Speaker 4: way one hundred percent is true. Yeah, and surround yourself.

1701
01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:47,519
Speaker 4: You know your vibe. This is a tribe. Tribe is

1702
01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:50,360
Speaker 4: your vibe? Baby, Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And I'm doing your

1703
01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:52,120
Speaker 4: day by day. I'm trying to be selfish. I mean

1704
01:23:52,240 --> 01:23:55,799
Speaker 4: that's the rule. First thing that Martina who had cancer twice,

1705
01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:59,560
Speaker 4: Julia's wife on the show, she said, you gotta be

1706
01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:01,600
Speaker 4: selfish when you want to be alone, just say so,

1707
01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:03,920
Speaker 4: I want to be alone, like don't don't just stop

1708
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:07,640
Speaker 4: wasting time being graceful and do just cut it, you know.

1709
01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:10,040
Speaker 4: So that's why that's and I am that person. It's

1710
01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:13,040
Speaker 4: just that I with my job, I'm a nurturer. So

1711
01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:16,120
Speaker 4: it's a balance of like bitch, gurty nice curty bitch.

1712
01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 4: So you're gonna so I snap sometimes and then I'll

1713
01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:20,719
Speaker 4: be like graceful and then you know, So it's interesting.

1714
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:23,240
Speaker 4: So you never know what you're gonna get. Well, what

1715
01:24:23,320 --> 01:24:24,680
Speaker 4: are we going to get next from the two of you?

1716
01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:28,880
Speaker 3: Is any anything that you guys have going on businesses

1717
01:24:29,360 --> 01:24:30,080
Speaker 3: anything else?

1718
01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:36,080
Speaker 4: Yes, so you are featuring. This is definitely my new

1719
01:24:36,160 --> 01:24:40,559
Speaker 4: amazing project. And this is like a life change because

1720
01:24:41,160 --> 01:24:43,760
Speaker 4: with cancer and it's some mutation. So my type of

1721
01:24:43,760 --> 01:24:45,920
Speaker 4: cancer is not genetic, it's a mutation. So I'm like,

1722
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:48,679
Speaker 4: I'm looking at my sisters. They're all healthy, they're all natural.

1723
01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:50,960
Speaker 4: And I was like perming my hair and doing all

1724
01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:52,479
Speaker 4: this stuff, and then look what happened to me. So

1725
01:24:52,640 --> 01:24:54,960
Speaker 4: I'm looking at the preventive ways in which I want

1726
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:57,280
Speaker 4: to live my life moving forward. And so I said,

1727
01:24:57,320 --> 01:24:59,599
Speaker 4: it's gotta be from the inside out. So the first

1728
01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:01,200
Speaker 4: thing I said myself is what am I doing to

1729
01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:04,599
Speaker 4: my hair, So you know, I started evaluating that. And

1730
01:25:04,640 --> 01:25:06,640
Speaker 4: also then I said, what am I drinking? What is

1731
01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:08,880
Speaker 4: it that I can do? That's something that is a

1732
01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:11,880
Speaker 4: huge impact. And we're made up of water pretty much.

1733
01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:14,280
Speaker 4: And I started looking into the water, and if I

1734
01:25:14,360 --> 01:25:17,160
Speaker 4: tell you the findings I found. So I started digging,

1735
01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:20,360
Speaker 4: digging deeper, and we partnered up with a company and

1736
01:25:20,439 --> 01:25:23,679
Speaker 4: we have a sharehold with a company called Miami Alkaline Water.

1737
01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:26,439
Speaker 4: And this is the water. Not only do we have

1738
01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:30,280
Speaker 4: alkaline water, we got CBD water, and we have hydrogen

1739
01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:33,479
Speaker 4: alkaline water, which is the top of the world level

1740
01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:37,400
Speaker 4: of water. So we are not playing games and it

1741
01:25:37,520 --> 01:25:40,080
Speaker 4: is a game changer. The first thing that happened to

1742
01:25:40,120 --> 01:25:41,600
Speaker 4: me when I had chemo was that we're like, you

1743
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 4: need to drink alkaline water. I started researching that and

1744
01:25:44,160 --> 01:25:46,240
Speaker 4: then when I found hydrogen acaline water, I was like,

1745
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:50,280
Speaker 4: we're taking it to the next level. So literally your

1746
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:53,840
Speaker 4: house system, the water system in your house, fully making

1747
01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:57,280
Speaker 4: that what I like to call kosher, which we are also,

1748
01:25:57,400 --> 01:25:58,880
Speaker 4: by the way, the water's culturecause you got to put

1749
01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:01,760
Speaker 4: the minimals back in the in the at the anti occidents,

1750
01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:05,200
Speaker 4: so we are literally in the purest water environment ever,

1751
01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:08,679
Speaker 4: and that starts with inside and to me, people ask

1752
01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:11,040
Speaker 4: how I'm lowing, people asking why I'm so healthy and

1753
01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:15,519
Speaker 4: bubbling because it's in the water. No, do your research.

1754
01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:16,400
Speaker 4: Do your research.

1755
01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:18,640
Speaker 3: So not to cut you off, I'm vegan. I've been

1756
01:26:18,720 --> 01:26:19,759
Speaker 3: vegan for seven years.

1757
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:25,120
Speaker 4: So no, listen, I would be shipping a list. Shoot

1758
01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:28,760
Speaker 4: me a box please, types of water, honey.

1759
01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:31,639
Speaker 3: No, so I've been vegan for seven years. Yes, because

1760
01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:34,080
Speaker 3: I take my health very seriously. And again, I could

1761
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:36,680
Speaker 3: do a whole episode about that because the whole like

1762
01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:40,400
Speaker 3: meat and water is definitely a big component fill to

1763
01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:43,439
Speaker 3: the water. But people don't know about alkaline water, natural

1764
01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:48,240
Speaker 3: spring water and alto the importance of hydrogen hydrogen. And

1765
01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:53,000
Speaker 3: so I started Russell for I think the past four

1766
01:26:53,200 --> 01:26:57,320
Speaker 3: months yep, only drinking hydrogen water. And I have a

1767
01:26:57,479 --> 01:27:01,280
Speaker 3: hydrogen water bottle that infuses is hydrogen inside of my

1768
01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:03,960
Speaker 3: alkaline water because I only drink alkaline water.

1769
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:05,799
Speaker 1: I'm drinking that for seven years.

1770
01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:06,320
Speaker 3: Wow.

1771
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:09,120
Speaker 4: And so it's in the skin, honey, look well, thank you,

1772
01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:11,280
Speaker 4: thank you, thank you amazing skin.

1773
01:27:11,439 --> 01:27:14,680
Speaker 1: So I'm telling you, and one thing about me, I don't.

1774
01:27:14,479 --> 01:27:20,200
Speaker 3: Like to perpetuate my my health right on others because

1775
01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:23,040
Speaker 3: you know, but so the only thing I will say

1776
01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:23,559
Speaker 3: to you.

1777
01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:29,120
Speaker 4: For sure you are correct. Everything we eat, everything we

1778
01:27:29,200 --> 01:27:32,439
Speaker 4: cook with. There's water everywhere. And what do one in

1779
01:27:32,479 --> 01:27:36,360
Speaker 4: three people have cancer? One in three? If I show

1780
01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:38,720
Speaker 4: you this website and you put your zip code in

1781
01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:43,559
Speaker 4: and you'll see how many arsenic contaminants. I mean, our

1782
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:46,200
Speaker 4: neighborhood alone has seventy seven. And I was like, thank you, no,

1783
01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:49,320
Speaker 4: thank you. Why do we have cancer? I think I

1784
01:27:49,360 --> 01:27:53,479
Speaker 4: think it could potentially have possibly allegedly be in the

1785
01:27:53,520 --> 01:27:55,559
Speaker 4: water too. And I'm going to be drinking the purest

1786
01:27:55,560 --> 01:27:59,040
Speaker 4: water out there, and God please hopefully that's the answer

1787
01:27:59,080 --> 01:28:01,840
Speaker 4: to many of thing that will you know, be on

1788
01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 4: a healthier path.

1789
01:28:03,720 --> 01:28:06,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm so damn proud of you too. No, seriously, no, seriously,

1790
01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:08,840
Speaker 3: And I do mean this again. I lost a mother

1791
01:28:09,320 --> 01:28:14,000
Speaker 3: do the breast cancer. And if I can just tell people,

1792
01:28:14,080 --> 01:28:16,960
Speaker 3: especially in our community, in the black community, one, I.

1793
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:22,960
Speaker 4: Mean extra you know, deaths in the black community than

1794
01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:25,840
Speaker 4: it is in the white community. Lack of education, lack

1795
01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:29,720
Speaker 4: of information, lack of resources, It's on and on and

1796
01:28:29,760 --> 01:28:31,839
Speaker 4: on and on and on. So we need to literally

1797
01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:36,400
Speaker 4: be preventive health insurance. Please, before you buy anything else

1798
01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:39,439
Speaker 4: that you don't need, get the health insurance please, and

1799
01:28:39,479 --> 01:28:42,160
Speaker 4: make sure it comes with the breast cancer mammograms ultrasound

1800
01:28:42,320 --> 01:28:43,439
Speaker 4: because your kids need you.

1801
01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:48,040
Speaker 1: We need you, Yes, you need you, and y'all need this.

1802
01:28:48,479 --> 01:28:50,040
