0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:20.759
<v Speaker 3>Sorry, well I heard it.

0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:22.280
<v Speaker 2>It messes with the algorithms.

0:00:22.840 --> 0:00:23.759
<v Speaker 3>Oh that's probably true.

0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:43.920
<v Speaker 4>Maybe that's why we haven't.

0:00:49.600 --> 0:00:52.960

<v Speaker 1>I missing a market?

0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:04.400
<v Speaker 3>Not yet? If you recorded me in two months, you would.

0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Be okay hopefully, Alana and I real know, okay, okay,

0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:13.280
<v Speaker 1>but I'm really excited to have Weezy. I met you

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:16.680
<v Speaker 1>probably over a year ago and literally like, I just

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I love everything you're about and I plan to take notes.

0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, but what do you have us eating as

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:24.559
<v Speaker 2>your broke dish today?

0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 3>Well, my broke dish today is gourmet maca cheese because

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:32.120
<v Speaker 3>I feel like, well, gourmet meat and macajeese because I

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 3>don't like to say hot dogs. It sounds cheap and

0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:37.760
<v Speaker 3>the meal is cheap. But like when broke, I was like,

0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:40.240
<v Speaker 3>I need to feel full fast, and I always thought

0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 3>that was like a protein and carbs, and so hot

0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:46.319
<v Speaker 3>dogs and macaroni and cheese like the easiest thing, even

0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:48.720
<v Speaker 3>though by itself, I feel like it tastes like shit.

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.600
<v Speaker 3>So I just tried to dress it up what I had. Yeah,

0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:52.040
<v Speaker 3>I saw that.

0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>I saw these extra ingredients, and I didn't know which

0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:58.120
<v Speaker 1>direction your meal was going. So for our listeners, can

0:01:58.160 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>you say what.

0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:00.840
<v Speaker 2>Is in the gourmet meg cheese?

0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 3>So I'm gonna be real with you. Allive oil is

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 3>very expensive when your rope like this is what eight

0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:09.960
<v Speaker 3>dollars for this? Maybe ten? Probably? Yeah, So I would

0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:15.800
<v Speaker 3>use criscal but virgin olive oil. Lorry I don't know

0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:17.200
<v Speaker 3>how to say his name, but Tony.

0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Shiericus, I just call it Tony seasoning, Tony creole.

0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:24.720
<v Speaker 3>So we have the mixing bowls. I don't know why.

0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh I thought you were gonna drain the mac and

0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:27.760
<v Speaker 2>cheese water.

0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:30.359
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, I didn't even have a bad I didn't

0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:34.119
<v Speaker 3>have a what's it called. I would take the top

0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 3>pour it out.

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Okay, we usually do that on the show. By the way,

0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:39.000
<v Speaker 1>this is just a fruit strainer.

0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:40.720
<v Speaker 2>But go on, what's the ingredients.

0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:44.560
<v Speaker 3>I like Nathan's. I'm not sure why. Hebrew National wasn't

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:47.440
<v Speaker 3>my thing, but Nathan's was like the skinny ones. Like Nathan's,

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 3>We've got the cutting board of the knife so that

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 3>you could slice up the hot dogs, onions, butter, and milk. Awesome.

0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:58.799
<v Speaker 1>Now it's funny because I've done mac and cheese before.

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.960
<v Speaker 1>In my greatest accomplishment was adding tuna to the mac

0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>and cheese. Okay, but I am excited because there's so much.

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:10.560
<v Speaker 3>Don't go together. So I think it's loster mac and

0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 3>cheese and that's it.

0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:14.400
<v Speaker 2>Hey, I was broke. I didn't. I don't even know.

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 5>You.

0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.480
<v Speaker 1>But but no, I'm excited because this is my first

0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 1>time ever in the history of living on this earth,

0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:24.959
<v Speaker 1>having gourmet mac and cheese.

0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:26.760
<v Speaker 2>And it's really cool.

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:28.480
<v Speaker 3>You know what I actually put in my grame?

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:30.520
<v Speaker 2>Look you getting all hyped into it?

0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 3>What what? Okay? Now that I'm getting money when I

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:36.120
<v Speaker 3>make gromet mac and cheese for overall, I put like

0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 3>five different type of cheeses in it, and I put

0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:41.839
<v Speaker 3>a little bit of beer whenever I Yes, I can't

0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:43.960
<v Speaker 3>remember where I learned about the beer from but it's

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 3>something about the yeast and the beer. Oh my god,

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 3>you can taste it. It's so good. Beer costs extra money,

0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:50.360
<v Speaker 3>so I felt like I shouldn't added that.

0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:53.880
<v Speaker 1>No, no, but that's your But you now that you

0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:57.520
<v Speaker 1>make money, you actually do to.

0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:01.080
<v Speaker 2>A still a twist the gourmet maga cheer.

0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, you're hilarious. My mom hates it. She's like,

0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:07.080
<v Speaker 3>this is so ridiculous because every Thanksgiving we have hers,

0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:09.480
<v Speaker 3>which is classic bag mac burn at the top, and

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:10.800
<v Speaker 3>then mine is the bougie back.

0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:14.440
<v Speaker 2>And you're mixed, right, So is your mom black?

0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 3>My mom is black and my dad's is really okay,

0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:18.280
<v Speaker 3>maybe it should be Hebrew national.

0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 2>You're hilarious.

0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:22.680
<v Speaker 1>My dad is Jewish and my mom is Jamaican. So

0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.640
<v Speaker 1>I have the same black and white mix because I

0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:27.839
<v Speaker 1>never ever meet it where the mom is black and

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:31.159
<v Speaker 1>the dad is white. Whenever I see someone like that,

0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:33.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, hey, that's crazy, all right.

0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 2>You always see the other PEO was like.

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 3>You're like black and Jewish. You're like Drake.

0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, it used to be Lenny was the big thing

0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:41.840
<v Speaker 2>back in the day.

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:45.039
<v Speaker 3>People don't know nothing, you not these young kids.

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:46.440
<v Speaker 2>But all right, weezy.

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.720
<v Speaker 1>So I am dying to try this gourmet mac so

0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 1>come away.

0:04:50.720 --> 0:04:51.560
<v Speaker 3>It's not gonna be good.

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 2>Why you say that?

0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:56.680
<v Speaker 3>Because think about the stuff we eat today. I mean,

0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 3>you eat shitty meals all the time.

0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.520
<v Speaker 1>With Oh let me tell you. I'm getting to the

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:02.560
<v Speaker 1>point where I'm gonna start rating it. And I've been

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:06.800
<v Speaker 1>because I've been pretty nice. Someone made tuna castrole.

0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna get me caught up.

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:13.960
<v Speaker 1>But this it was literally it's tuna castrole and the

0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:17.120
<v Speaker 1>pickled egg is the worst dish for me on the

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:20.120
<v Speaker 1>on the shell. If people said the worst pickled eg

0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Have you had a pickled egg?

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:23.400
<v Speaker 3>I thought casseroles are for Caucasians. And this is the

0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:24.800
<v Speaker 3>Black Black Network. It was.

0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:29.679
<v Speaker 1>It was two black sisters that owned a all black

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:34.039
<v Speaker 1>owned store that carries all black owned and they made

0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 1>a tuna castrole and it was absolutely that's terrible.

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 3>Putting the olive oil in the pan for the onions

0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:45.640
<v Speaker 3>because I like it to caramelize, okay, okay, But also

0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:49.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna boil the hot dogs, start boiling the macacheese.

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:51.920
<v Speaker 3>And while that's boiling, that's where I'd just be trying

0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:54.919
<v Speaker 3>to get the flavor with the onions, and Shita tastes

0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:56.440
<v Speaker 3>like extra. Yeah.

0:05:56.480 --> 0:05:59.120
<v Speaker 1>I just learned the other day that some people seasoned

0:05:59.200 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 1>the onions.

0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Are you one of those people?

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:02.000
<v Speaker 5>No?

0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:08.400
<v Speaker 3>Am? I Karen? Now it was? It was a black girl. Damn,

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:11.320
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. That's what I'm saying. I expect her

0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:16.960
<v Speaker 3>to be black. You you said you're a carot. You

0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:19.280
<v Speaker 3>want to know something that's just too black? My mom,

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:21.960
<v Speaker 3>every time she watches my dog, won't feed the dog

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.680
<v Speaker 3>dog food. It's only like chicken, right, And I was like, Mom,

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:28.080
<v Speaker 3>why is that chicken color different? Oh well, it has

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.720
<v Speaker 3>a little garlic powder and just a little season on it.

0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:34.080
<v Speaker 2>She seas in the dog's foods there's too bland, no way.

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:39.720
<v Speaker 3>And every time I got the dog be peen out

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:42.520
<v Speaker 3>of its ask. Actually, there's a very special day and

0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:45.640
<v Speaker 3>week for me. By the way, my parents, I moved

0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:47.560
<v Speaker 3>them to LA, so they're flying to night.

0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:49.320
<v Speaker 2>You moved them.

0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 3>They live in Orlando, so literally I'm New York Orlando, LA.

0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, I can't do this triangle. It's

0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:58.479
<v Speaker 3>got to be one back and forth, okay. So I

0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:00.320
<v Speaker 3>just wanted them closer to me, so that that to

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:03.279
<v Speaker 3>me was like a big life goal. That's summer Orlando.

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>First of all, that's a yeah, cause it would have

0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.320
<v Speaker 1>been cheaper to move from LA to Orlando.

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.920
<v Speaker 3>You moved them to a more expensive market. I want

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:13.520
<v Speaker 3>them to be closer to me. This is where all

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:16.680
<v Speaker 3>my work is happening. And like, yeah, I mean, Orlando's

0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 3>where I'm from. So it was any day go on

0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:23.800
<v Speaker 3>my birthday this year, I went to suspend it with

0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:26.480
<v Speaker 3>my father. My dad, he's in a wheelchair, so it's

0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.160
<v Speaker 3>a lot more difficult for him to visit me like

0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.040
<v Speaker 3>my mom does. People probably see my mom all over

0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 3>my content. But my dad was like, damn, I wish

0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:34.320
<v Speaker 3>I could watch TV with you all the time. I

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:37.400
<v Speaker 3>wish we could have these moments together, Like I wish

0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:39.240
<v Speaker 3>I could be in LA with you and your mom.

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.360
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, well, shit, you guys could be there,

0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:45.320
<v Speaker 3>and so yeah, I mean to me, it's crazy to

0:07:45.400 --> 0:07:47.520
<v Speaker 3>make this meal today. I actually walked by a T

0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:28.240
<v Speaker 1>still in the Jamaican like two thousand here, five thousand here,

0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:32.000

<v Speaker 1>the kitchen, I burned someone's dish. So I need to

0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.840
<v Speaker 1>stay in my life. Okay, okay, made feet, Yeah, because

<v Speaker 2>Sorry.

0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:32.839
<v Speaker 3>So I actually grew up with money and there was

0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.680
<v Speaker 3>a stock market crash that happened that lost my parents

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.120
<v Speaker 3>some money, and then my dad ended up having a

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:43.600
<v Speaker 3>stroke that kept him out of work. And so after that,

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:46.920
<v Speaker 3>I ended up dating a guy. It was just like

0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:50.800
<v Speaker 3>rich boyfriend that was paying for my school and then

0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:53.640
<v Speaker 3>he was very abusive. Broke up with him and then

0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:56.680
<v Speaker 3>that stopped. My parents couldn't really afford to college. I

0:09:56.720 --> 0:09:58.360
<v Speaker 3>had to help them out because my dad had this stroke.

0:09:59.000 --> 0:10:01.600
<v Speaker 3>So started work at the mall, White House black market

0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:04.359
<v Speaker 3>clothing stores like a hand tailor.

0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Bike Yeah, yeah, a little bit high play, yeah, high class,

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:08.400
<v Speaker 1>that's my first I did.

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:10.439
<v Speaker 2>Did you steal anything from them, like a few things.

0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:12.960
<v Speaker 3>Ok. Good, good, But then I realized once I had

0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:16.040
<v Speaker 3>to stop, I wasn't like stealing for real, for real, Okay,

0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.199
<v Speaker 3>it was just a little shit. And then one day

0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:19.640
<v Speaker 3>I wore something to work and she was like, I

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 3>didn't know you got that dress, and I was like, ah.

0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:24.920
<v Speaker 3>The craziest thing was I went to jail and ended

0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.600
<v Speaker 3>up having it was for my license. Everybody thinks it

0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.560
<v Speaker 3>was something worse. It was for my license, and I

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:34.960
<v Speaker 3>had a GPS monitor on my foot, and so I

0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:38.280
<v Speaker 3>had to always wear Maxi dresses to work, or like

0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:39.959
<v Speaker 3>super big boots.

0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:41.880
<v Speaker 2>To cover you got one of those ankle monitors.

0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:44.240
<v Speaker 3>Yes, no way, all working at my house like Marky.

0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:46.320
<v Speaker 3>It was terrible. So then I think I was helping

0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 3>a woman that worked at a T mobile store and

0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:50.199
<v Speaker 3>I was selling her mad shit. She's like, you're really

0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:53.280
<v Speaker 3>good at sales. How much she's making here. I don't

0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:54.960
<v Speaker 3>remember what it was, fucking ten dollars an hour, but

0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:56.360
<v Speaker 3>my commission would be good, so it'd be up to

0:10:56.400 --> 0:10:58.400
<v Speaker 3>twenty or thirty. And she was like, I can make

0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:00.679
<v Speaker 3>you double a tea mobile with the way you saw. Oh,

0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.120
<v Speaker 3>now I knew nothing about cel phone. She's like, you

0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 3>don't have to just have to be cute. It's funny

0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:07.240
<v Speaker 3>because I went on a date the other day, this

0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:08.959
<v Speaker 3>nigga said, you look like a bitch. She used to

0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:11.680
<v Speaker 3>work its emobile. I used to tie my little shirt

0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:13.120
<v Speaker 3>up like this and be like, what kind of fun

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:17.640
<v Speaker 3>y'all want? I was gonna sell it to all the

0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 3>top niggas, the prepaid lines in the box, because you

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:25.319
<v Speaker 3>weren't supposed to legally sell them a new number every month. Oh,

0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:27.840
<v Speaker 3>so niggas would come in. I just fucking keeps wiping

0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:30.920
<v Speaker 3>the shit whatever. So ended up being so good at

0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:34.480
<v Speaker 3>T mobile selling shit. I think my first year working there,

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:36.480
<v Speaker 3>I was like twenty two twenty three. I made like

0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:40.000
<v Speaker 3>ninety thousand dollars. Get the heck out crazy. They don't

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:41.840
<v Speaker 3>pay it over that way, no more. Yeah, but like

0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:44.000
<v Speaker 3>I was selling selling something. The iPhone was hot back then,

0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:48.520
<v Speaker 3>and it just came out and literally was fucking flying

0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:51.040
<v Speaker 3>to Europe, just like experiencing life. Living life still had

0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:53.160
<v Speaker 3>a shitty car with windows, didn't go down, But I

0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:55.960
<v Speaker 3>just spent all my money and experiences, and what I

0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 3>realized from those experiences, like, oh I got to get

0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:00.040
<v Speaker 3>more and more and more. Every time you taste a

0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:02.959
<v Speaker 3>little bit of luxury, now you need more and more

0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:06.559
<v Speaker 3>and more, you know. So from there, ended up training

0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:09.920
<v Speaker 3>T Mobile staff in Florida. Then I ended up managing

0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:11.600
<v Speaker 3>a store, and then they moved me to New York

0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:15.440
<v Speaker 3>to work in corporate. And now not saying I couldn't

0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:16.640
<v Speaker 3>have made it to New York alone, but I did

0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 3>have a sugar daddy then.

0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And so he was like a legit sugar daddy,

0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:23.160
<v Speaker 1>like what you envisioned in the movies, Like he wasn't

0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:24.840
<v Speaker 1>that hot, and he had paper.

0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:27.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh he paper, Oh yeah, like some bitches have a

0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:27.559
<v Speaker 3>sugar daddy.

0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:29.520
<v Speaker 2>I I he had a plane, he had he had

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:30.040
<v Speaker 2>a plane.

0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:32.880
<v Speaker 3>Yes, oh he was like legit okay, Oh my god.

0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:34.240
<v Speaker 3>He was so rich. And I met him working in

0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.880
<v Speaker 3>with the fucking T mobile. He came in. He had

0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:39.520
<v Speaker 3>like three hundred lines for his company and he was like,

0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:41.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm with Rise and Da Da Da, but his daughter

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 3>wanted something that was only a T Mobile. I was like,

0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:45.520
<v Speaker 3>why don't you move your lines over? And he's like, honey,

0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:47.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't do T Mobile Like this is that's very

0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:50.240
<v Speaker 3>So I think I saved him like twenty five grand

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:51.360
<v Speaker 3>a month, and he said he was gonna give me

0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:54.600
<v Speaker 3>a gift and I told him. He's like, what are

0:12:54.640 --> 0:12:56.000

<v Speaker 3>how are you gonna get there? I'm like gona drive

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:03.200
<v Speaker 3>with my friends. He's like, take my jet, and I

0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:04.839
<v Speaker 3>remember my friend's like, oh my god, you gotta suck

0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:06.480
<v Speaker 3>that owd man. We got on that jet and it

0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:07.960
<v Speaker 3>was like, bitch'll.

0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:08.320
<v Speaker 2>Suck a thick jot.

0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:11.840
<v Speaker 3>And so that was like my first entry into whole

0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 3>ho ho sheit okay, okay, got me this insane apartment

0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:17.640
<v Speaker 3>in New York. It was like, wait he was doing

0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:19.959
<v Speaker 3>that too, oh yeah, saying when he knew I was

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.840
<v Speaker 3>gonna leave Orlando, He's like, sweetie, I can't have you

0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:24.439
<v Speaker 3>leave me. I was thinking about getting a place in

0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 3>New York anyway. He's like, where were you gonna move?

0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:30.320
<v Speaker 3>I was like Manhattan. He goes that means Harlem, which

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:34.400
<v Speaker 3>was true. So I was Midtown fifty fourth and eighth.

0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.240
<v Speaker 3>And it's so funny because my mom came to visit

0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 3>me and the address was two sixty West fifty fourth

0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:42.320

0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:53.080
<v Speaker 3>She was so proud of me. And I think, what's

0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:54.959
<v Speaker 3>funny is my mom always wanted me to.

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:58.120

0:13:58.160 --> 0:13:59.960
<v Speaker 3>Okay, my mom always wanted me to be with a

0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:02.199
<v Speaker 3>always wanted me to be taken care of. And like,

0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:05.560
<v Speaker 3>it's so crazy because now I'm the rich guy, you know.

0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:10.400
<v Speaker 3>And I don't think she expected it, but it's just amazing.

0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:12.360
<v Speaker 3>Like I never thought i'd get here. I always kind

0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.120
<v Speaker 3>of thought and she would say to me, you're gonna

0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:15.959
<v Speaker 3>get married, You're gonna have a big house, and you're

0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 3>gonna move me and your dad in the guest house.

0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 3>It's gonna be so great. And like literally I'm moving

0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:23.160

<v Speaker 1>now you're the rich guy, Like when you do you

0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:31.600
<v Speaker 1>this obviously is in the first time you said it?

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:33.560
<v Speaker 1>Is it when did you have the epiphany that you

0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 1>were the rich guy.

0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:37.240
<v Speaker 2>I damn, that's a good feeling.

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.640
<v Speaker 3>I can't wait to have that feeling. It was It

0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:42.040
<v Speaker 3>wasn't the first time I felt that was. I was

0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:44.760
<v Speaker 3>in Paris with my mom and I took her for

0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.560
<v Speaker 3>a birthday and I wanted to fly her first class,

0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 3>but I use like an upgrade to getting points then,

0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:52.240
<v Speaker 3>you know, because like first class, I'd be like ten

0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:55.480
<v Speaker 3>fifteen thousand for them. Lay down. And when we got there,

0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:57.640
<v Speaker 3>we get to the hotel and it was really nice,

0:14:57.640 --> 0:14:59.040
<v Speaker 3>and she's like, oh, what's our room?

0:14:59.160 --> 0:14:59.240
<v Speaker 5>Like?

0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh, room, Like we have two separate rooms and every

0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:04.080
<v Speaker 3>little thing my mom was starting to count in her head,

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:05.280
<v Speaker 3>like how much was my daughter making?

0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:06.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she said, we.

0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:09.520
<v Speaker 3>Got our own rooms. Okay. Then we go to the store.

0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:11.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, you want something, I'll just get a lipstick.

0:15:11.200 --> 0:15:12.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, no, Mom, you can get more. You can

0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:13.440
<v Speaker 3>get a bag o.

0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:16.240
<v Speaker 2>Your mom was like, what the break is happening?

0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:18.880
<v Speaker 3>She was bugging out. And then we walk outside of

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:21.200
<v Speaker 3>the protest store and there's a hotel very famous called

0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:24.440
<v Speaker 3>the Plaza at My mom was telling me how princes

0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 3>would take her to dinner there. When she was young

0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:28.040
<v Speaker 3>and she would meet all these guys when she was

0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:29.760
<v Speaker 3>traveling in Europe and this was like the place to go.

0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:31.440
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh, do you want to have dinner there?

0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:33.880
<v Speaker 3>And that was when it hit my mom. She got

0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:37.080
<v Speaker 3>really emotional and she's like, I cannot fucking believe I'm

0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:39.720
<v Speaker 3>doing this with you. My mom is seventy seventieth birthday

0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:40.280
<v Speaker 3>at the time.

0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:43.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you said stay out the lane, so I'm staying.

0:15:43.720 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm watching it.

0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:50.200
<v Speaker 3>I get cooked for her now, Yo.

0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:51.960
<v Speaker 2>You ain't been in the kitchen in a while.

0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:53.280
<v Speaker 3>I cooked this morning.

0:15:53.480 --> 0:15:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Yo, I'm sorry you told me that.

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:57.760
<v Speaker 1>You told me to stay out the kitchen, and we

0:15:57.880 --> 0:15:59.560
<v Speaker 1>almost about to burn down the whole.

0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:02.120
<v Speaker 2>Don't even know if you don't read on there to

0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:03.480
<v Speaker 2>be on the wood part.

0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:05.680
<v Speaker 3>No, I can't. I was looking for another contract. Okay,

0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:09.560
<v Speaker 3>I'll move it to this one. The ale I tried to.

0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.720
<v Speaker 3>I love it, No, but it was. It was beautiful

0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 3>because my mom really was just so excited for me,

0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:18.800
<v Speaker 3>so proud of me. I do remember, you know, we

0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:20.240
<v Speaker 3>still niggas at the end of the day, Like we

0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:22.400
<v Speaker 3>sitting here with these fucking Louis bags and all these

0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:25.760
<v Speaker 3>expensive shopping bags and literally, my mom orders a drink.

0:16:26.040 --> 0:16:27.400
<v Speaker 3>She looks at the men. She said, oh shit, that

0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.360
<v Speaker 3>was forty three dollars. She was let me sip slow.

0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.560
<v Speaker 3>But it's really great because for me, like I don't

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:37.200
<v Speaker 3>have kids yet, so like spoiling my parents just it's

0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:38.480
<v Speaker 3>like dream come true. Shit for me.

0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:40.880
<v Speaker 2>I can only imagine I really really.

0:16:40.640 --> 0:16:43.600
<v Speaker 3>Have wanted this for myself my life, and like I

0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:46.280
<v Speaker 3>love doing it for my mom. My mom thinks I'm Beyonce.

0:16:46.840 --> 0:16:48.520
<v Speaker 3>Like if we walk into a place and can't get in,

0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:51.040
<v Speaker 3>like you don't know how my daughter is called Charlemagne.

0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:55.960
<v Speaker 3>It's just my mom is like my daughter's on TV

0:16:56.160 --> 0:17:01.520
<v Speaker 3>and they're like, really, what out confuse? But yeah, I

0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 3>mean I feel really proud to do that.

0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:06.359
<v Speaker 2>Hell yeah, and they come tonight. This is a big

0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:07.240
<v Speaker 2>freaking deal.

0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.520
<v Speaker 3>She's gonna get her nerves well.

0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:11.440
<v Speaker 2>And luckily you moved it right down the street.

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:12.280
<v Speaker 5>I did. So.

0:17:12.320 --> 0:17:13.960
<v Speaker 3>My mom wanted to get rid of her car. She

0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:16.359
<v Speaker 3>was like, I think I'm getting old. She had a

0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:19.159
<v Speaker 3>little moment. We were looking for her apartment and she

0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:21.440
<v Speaker 3>saw me parallel park. She started crying. I'm like, what's

0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.320
<v Speaker 3>wrong with you? She's like, I'm older than I thought.

0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:25.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if I can do this shit. I

0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:27.359
<v Speaker 3>got to get rid of my car, like I'm an

0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 3>old lady. What if I hit somebody? Thought? And so

0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:32.760
<v Speaker 3>we sold her car. And I'm a little nervous because

0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:34.280
<v Speaker 3>you know, parents don't want to give up too much

0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:36.320
<v Speaker 3>of their autonomy. They need to be able to do

0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:39.240
<v Speaker 3>shit for themselves. So you know, I hope she can't

0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:41.200
<v Speaker 3>moved her in a walkable neighborhood. She'll figure it out.

0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:44.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And then now are they still together? So he's

0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:45.880
<v Speaker 1>when does your dad come?

0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:46.399
<v Speaker 5>It is?

0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:49.800
<v Speaker 3>So my dad comes in tonight. He's just like as

0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:53.400
<v Speaker 3>a hospital visit, and it's a little more extensive when

0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:56.480
<v Speaker 3>someone's like fully in a wheelchair. So I wanted my

0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 3>mom to have a few days to herself. I'll take

0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:00.080
<v Speaker 3>care of my dad and then you know, okay, in

0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:02.240
<v Speaker 3>a lot of shit they've lived there forever. Okay, Okay,

0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:03.760
<v Speaker 3>so yeah it's a big deal.

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:07.440
<v Speaker 1>So let's talk about go back to your broke story, okay,

0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:09.840
<v Speaker 1>because I want to know how this elevation because it

0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:13.080
<v Speaker 1>seems like somewhere around your elevation that was like a

0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:13.960
<v Speaker 1>speed track.

0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:17.960
<v Speaker 3>So the broke missus, the brokest I think i'd been

0:18:18.320 --> 0:18:21.400
<v Speaker 3>was when I left the abusive X. Right, he only

0:18:21.480 --> 0:18:25.119
<v Speaker 3>let me keep barely the clothes that I had that

0:18:25.200 --> 0:18:27.800
<v Speaker 3>I had when I like got with him.

0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:30.119
<v Speaker 2>Are we talking like emotional or physical abuse?

0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:32.680
<v Speaker 3>Physical and emotional? He was crazy. I mean, I don't

0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:34.439
<v Speaker 3>know how dark you can get on the show. But like,

0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:38.119
<v Speaker 3>I didn't even know it was bad because I just

0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:41.440
<v Speaker 3>kind of thought when a man is paying for things

0:18:41.440 --> 0:18:45.359
<v Speaker 3>for you, like you deal with a little bit of something, right, Yeah,

0:18:45.400 --> 0:18:47.600
<v Speaker 3>And so to me, if you never close your fist,

0:18:47.640 --> 0:18:51.119
<v Speaker 3>I thought that was fine. I never realized how the

0:18:51.200 --> 0:18:55.120
<v Speaker 3>steps of you know, physical violence can be. Yeah. So

0:18:55.240 --> 0:18:57.800
<v Speaker 3>when I left him, he didn't give me anything. It

0:18:57.880 --> 0:19:00.800
<v Speaker 3>was really tough. I mean, mind you, I went from

0:19:00.880 --> 0:19:03.320
<v Speaker 3>when I was a kid having a driver drive me

0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:07.159
<v Speaker 3>to school that's how my parents were, to like literally

0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:09.960
<v Speaker 3>figuring out what I was gonna do with the last bottles, right,

0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:12.960
<v Speaker 3>So it was really tough. And I couldn't ask my

0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:14.920
<v Speaker 3>parents for anything, didn't want to tell them how bad

0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:15.320
<v Speaker 3>it was.

0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:17.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, so when I moved, he didn't want

0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:19.800
<v Speaker 1>to tell them because they were already struggling.

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:22.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. And then I can't imagine how my mom would feel.

0:19:22.320 --> 0:19:23.959
<v Speaker 3>She's like, oh my god, was like excited about you

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:27.479
<v Speaker 3>having this rich boyfriend? Yeah, oh yeah, you know. So

0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:29.160
<v Speaker 3>ended up finding a place I think it was seven

0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:31.359
<v Speaker 3>hundred a month, split the rent with a homegirls, a

0:19:31.400 --> 0:19:35.120
<v Speaker 3>two bedroom in Orlando. He was right by Walmart, thank god,

0:19:35.200 --> 0:19:37.040
<v Speaker 3>because that's where I was buying all the fucking hot dogs,

0:19:37.040 --> 0:19:40.040
<v Speaker 3>the mac and cheese. Wrong, but my number one broke

0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:42.159
<v Speaker 3>thing I would do. So I used to hang with

0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:47.160
<v Speaker 3>all the trap news because hello, that was my jam okay,

0:19:47.640 --> 0:19:50.600
<v Speaker 3>and I'm from Florida, right, so like southern culture, big

0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:54.120
<v Speaker 3>car shows, HBC's like it was just fun and basically

0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:55.760
<v Speaker 3>what I would do if they were going to like

0:19:56.080 --> 0:19:58.159
<v Speaker 3>buy a bottle or a table in the club, I

0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:00.159
<v Speaker 3>would see if I had like maybe thirty dollars up

0:20:00.200 --> 0:20:02.280
<v Speaker 3>to my account so that it would overdraft, and have

0:20:02.320 --> 0:20:04.199
<v Speaker 3>them give me the cash. And that was like my

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:05.440
<v Speaker 3>payday loan to myself.

0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, hold that you are like really in deep

0:20:10.520 --> 0:20:11.919
<v Speaker 1>when you think of that strategy.

0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:14.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah yeah.

0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:16.040
<v Speaker 3>My roommate and I at the time. I remember we

0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:18.600
<v Speaker 3>both got paid on different weeks. So there was a

0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:21.120
<v Speaker 3>Thursday and we both got paid that or I got

0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:23.040
<v Speaker 3>paid that Friday. I was like, damn, we don't have

0:20:23.040 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 3>detergent left, but we want to go to the club.

0:20:25.000 --> 0:20:26.399
<v Speaker 3>We had like twenty bucks. She was like, okay, we

0:20:26.440 --> 0:20:31.159
<v Speaker 3>get vodka or detergent, and we got vodka. Okay, we

0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:33.160
<v Speaker 3>use some body washing like clean shit. In the same

0:20:33.200 --> 0:20:34.280
<v Speaker 3>we were like, we got to go out and meet

0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:37.000
<v Speaker 3>niggas to make more money. And it's crazy that, like

0:20:37.320 --> 0:20:39.720
<v Speaker 3>that was what I thought being able to have success.

0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:41.040
<v Speaker 3>Look like I got to meet a rich guy. I

0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:43.560
<v Speaker 3>got to be a basketball player this fi or that guy. Yeah,

0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:05.520
<v Speaker 1>turn around to look at.

0:21:05.400 --> 0:21:08.399

0:21:08.240 --> 0:21:10.960
<v Speaker 3>No, my life, I think I'm better than you. The

0:21:11.040 --> 0:21:14.320
<v Speaker 3>problem is, like I think now, a lot of the

0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:17.040
<v Speaker 3>dudes are in my industry right, so, like the people

0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:19.679
<v Speaker 3>that I'm working amongst, I can't be out here like

0:21:20.240 --> 0:21:21.879
<v Speaker 3>trying to fuck with these niggas for bread like I

0:21:21.920 --> 0:21:24.520
<v Speaker 3>used to. Don't get me wrong, I would still want Toby,

0:21:26.160 --> 0:21:28.560
<v Speaker 3>but like for real, like you know, it's like they'll

0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:30.320
<v Speaker 3>know me from somewhere. I've seen me on something, so

0:21:30.320 --> 0:21:32.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to be a bird. Then I just

0:21:32.320 --> 0:21:34.639
<v Speaker 3>end up, you know, a bird with these niggas.

0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:40.199
<v Speaker 1>But whatever, I'll tell you right now, I am learning

0:21:40.400 --> 0:21:42.680

0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:10.040
<v Speaker 3>fucking sob story, which I'll tell you what, my sugar daddy.

0:22:11.280 --> 0:22:13.520
<v Speaker 3>A lot of the things that I think helped me

0:22:13.600 --> 0:22:16.720
<v Speaker 3>now are the stock tips and investment tips I got

0:22:16.720 --> 0:22:17.520
<v Speaker 3>for my sugar daddy.

0:22:18.640 --> 0:22:21.280
<v Speaker 1>But didn't didn't you say, were your parents in stock

0:22:21.320 --> 0:22:24.199
<v Speaker 1>market too though it crash okay, So you didn't want

0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:25.480
<v Speaker 1>to take tips from them, were you?

0:22:25.600 --> 0:22:27.040
<v Speaker 2>Like No?

0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:32.159
<v Speaker 3>But you know, with him, particularly my sugar daddy, I

0:22:32.200 --> 0:22:34.040
<v Speaker 3>remember he would get up at four o'clock in the morning,

0:22:34.080 --> 0:22:35.800
<v Speaker 3>five o'clock in the morning and watch the market, to

0:22:35.840 --> 0:22:39.960
<v Speaker 3>watch the markets in China wherever, just international stocks four

0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:43.320
<v Speaker 3>x right, things like that, and it never made me

0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:45.679
<v Speaker 3>want his money. I always wanted to be him. I

0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:48.640
<v Speaker 3>always wanted to be that person that just had this, this, this,

0:22:48.640 --> 0:22:51.160
<v Speaker 3>this and that to me that was so attractive about him.

0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:53.000
<v Speaker 3>People used to always ask me how I could fuck

0:22:53.080 --> 0:22:54.480
<v Speaker 3>him and shit like that, and I was like, bro,

0:22:55.720 --> 0:22:57.560
<v Speaker 3>you don't know how rich the person is. You don't

0:22:57.560 --> 0:23:00.159
<v Speaker 3>know how how much that drives me. The ambition that

0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:03.120
<v Speaker 3>made him sexier and sexier. So one day I eventually

0:23:03.160 --> 0:23:04.760
<v Speaker 3>just asked him like, hey, I really want to learn

0:23:04.800 --> 0:23:06.840
<v Speaker 3>the stock market, but like, you know, what, can I

0:23:06.840 --> 0:23:09.440
<v Speaker 3>put like five hundred dollars in? And he's like, that's

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:12.200
<v Speaker 3>not a start. I'll give you ten thousand dollars if

0:23:12.200 --> 0:23:14.800
<v Speaker 3>you can make it grow. I forgot the timeframe. He said,

0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:18.399
<v Speaker 3>I'll reward you with another ten and he did wow,

0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:20.439
<v Speaker 3>And I kept growing it and growing it. I think

0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:21.720
<v Speaker 3>at the time I even put the money in T

0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:25.239
<v Speaker 3>Mobile think it opened became a publicly traded company when

0:23:25.280 --> 0:23:30.600
<v Speaker 3>I worked there, became publicly traded and then it was

0:23:30.640 --> 0:23:32.440
<v Speaker 3>six dollars and then they went up to like thirty

0:23:32.480 --> 0:23:33.160
<v Speaker 3>and I thought, I get.

0:23:33.080 --> 0:23:44.480
<v Speaker 5>A lot of money.

0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:51.280
<v Speaker 1>So when you were doing the podcast, and this is before,

0:23:51.400 --> 0:23:54.440
<v Speaker 1>I want to say, before everybody was on podcasting correct,

0:23:54.840 --> 0:23:57.119
<v Speaker 1>seven years ago? Yeah, I mean it was like before

0:23:57.160 --> 0:23:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the new wave or were you guys early in Like

0:24:00.040 --> 0:24:00.400
<v Speaker 1>we were.

0:24:00.359 --> 0:24:02.639
<v Speaker 3>Very early, and like people were verrely really doing video,

0:24:02.720 --> 0:24:06.400
<v Speaker 3>I think for popular podcasts, just for scale.

0:24:07.840 --> 0:24:10.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand how you're mixing water and oil and

0:24:10.280 --> 0:24:11.680
<v Speaker 2>you're not getting burns.

0:24:12.040 --> 0:24:14.439
<v Speaker 3>I'm standing away. I'm trying to like I didn't have

0:24:14.480 --> 0:24:17.720
<v Speaker 3>a grill, okay, but I'm trying to get that real plate.

0:24:17.920 --> 0:24:22.600

0:24:27.760 --> 0:24:29.680
<v Speaker 3>even listen to music when I cook one.

0:24:29.720 --> 0:24:31.760
<v Speaker 1>You would be surprised how many people will at the

0:24:31.800 --> 0:24:34.440
<v Speaker 1>after each interview, they'll be like yo, cooking and talking

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:35.200
<v Speaker 1>at the same time.

0:24:35.359 --> 0:24:36.960
<v Speaker 2>Really really difficult because.

0:24:36.680 --> 0:24:40.160
<v Speaker 3>You're like knowing that you have to engage, like that's

0:24:40.160 --> 0:24:40.840
<v Speaker 3>what's making it.

0:24:41.000 --> 0:24:44.400
<v Speaker 2>And you have to like tell your story the entire time.

0:24:44.520 --> 0:24:46.120

<v Speaker 3>Okay, okay, I'm going to be a sugar baby.

<v Speaker 3>Baby, bros. Every time when I was out with him,

0:25:01.320 --> 0:25:03.960
<v Speaker 3>I would take him to like fucking any and this

0:25:04.040 --> 0:25:06.280
<v Speaker 3>when I just moved to New York. Catch just just

0:25:06.320 --> 0:25:08.480
<v Speaker 3>came out at the time, and SGK was super popular.

0:25:08.760 --> 0:25:10.159
<v Speaker 3>I remember all them niggas if you be looking at

0:25:10.200 --> 0:25:11.320
<v Speaker 3>me with him, and I'd be like, come on, babe.

0:25:12.560 --> 0:25:14.880
<v Speaker 3>Also just turned on knowing that he had to fuck

0:25:14.920 --> 0:25:17.720
<v Speaker 3>me for money, uh huh, which is terrible, but I

0:25:17.880 --> 0:25:21.400
<v Speaker 3>was okay, it was sexy to me, Like especially when

0:25:21.440 --> 0:25:22.760
<v Speaker 3>I remember he would be like, you want to get

0:25:22.760 --> 0:25:23.879
<v Speaker 3>some clothes, and I would always want to get a

0:25:23.880 --> 0:25:26.080
<v Speaker 3>little Nike askic to shit. You know many all the

0:25:26.160 --> 0:25:31.760
<v Speaker 3>niggas of you in yeah, he's my daddy, but so anyway,

0:25:31.840 --> 0:25:33.080
<v Speaker 3>start horrible decisions.

0:25:33.080 --> 0:25:37.399
<v Speaker 1>But I like how you were actually inspired by his

0:25:37.480 --> 0:25:40.159
<v Speaker 1>moves versus well, I don't want to say I like,

0:25:40.240 --> 0:25:44.160
<v Speaker 1>but it's interesting that you were inspired by him being

0:25:44.240 --> 0:25:47.640
<v Speaker 1>successful to be even more successful, and you you took

0:25:47.680 --> 0:25:50.200
<v Speaker 1>the initiative to even say, hey, I want to learn

0:25:50.240 --> 0:25:52.280
<v Speaker 1>what you're doing and do it on my own, which

0:25:52.320 --> 0:25:52.720
<v Speaker 1>was great.

0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:55.560
<v Speaker 3>It's like I always wanted this sex in the city

0:25:55.600 --> 0:25:58.159
<v Speaker 3>life mm hmm, but I never felt like any of

0:25:58.200 --> 0:26:00.760
<v Speaker 3>them needed men to live that life. Yeah, and so

0:26:01.600 --> 0:26:03.600
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to have the girlfriends that I was wearing

0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:06.639
<v Speaker 3>an amazing designer with and fucking enjoying fashion show and

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:09.080
<v Speaker 3>doing this shit. But I knew if I was tied

0:26:09.080 --> 0:26:11.080
<v Speaker 3>to a man, I wouldn't have that freedom. And I

0:26:11.080 --> 0:26:14.760
<v Speaker 3>had also experienced my first relationship a man with money

0:26:14.800 --> 0:26:16.520
<v Speaker 3>and abuse, so I was like, I have to have

0:26:16.560 --> 0:26:18.919
<v Speaker 3>it on my own. I can't be down again. And

0:26:18.960 --> 0:26:21.280
<v Speaker 3>you know, I hate to say it like this, but

0:26:21.359 --> 0:26:23.760
<v Speaker 3>my mom was a housewife her whole life. And what

0:26:23.840 --> 0:26:25.680
<v Speaker 3>happened to my parents with losing their I mean, their

0:26:25.680 --> 0:26:28.159
<v Speaker 3>house got poor clothes on right, the home that I

0:26:28.320 --> 0:26:30.639
<v Speaker 3>SETI grew up in. It's like it was tough to

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:32.239
<v Speaker 3>watch them go through that, and I think about two

0:26:32.320 --> 0:26:35.720
<v Speaker 3>incomes or just diversifying shit what that would have meant.

0:26:35.880 --> 0:26:38.880
<v Speaker 3>So that really fueled me a lot. And it's tough

0:26:38.880 --> 0:26:40.040
<v Speaker 3>for my mom to hear that.

0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but why have you had those sidebar conversations?

0:26:44.119 --> 0:26:47.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, definitely, But it's not easy. Like my mom

0:26:47.840 --> 0:26:49.760
<v Speaker 3>is so amazing, but there's moments where she's like, oh

0:26:49.800 --> 0:26:52.239
<v Speaker 3>my god, I never taught you to go out there

0:26:52.280 --> 0:26:53.959
<v Speaker 3>and do it alone.

0:26:54.119 --> 0:26:56.360
<v Speaker 2>Well look at you in a way.

0:26:56.400 --> 0:27:00.040
<v Speaker 3>You're you know, well I made money off of person.

0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Well you make money because you're a gangster entrepreneur. That's

0:27:05.200 --> 0:27:08.960
<v Speaker 2>really it. I mean the personality, I mean, in my opinion,

0:27:09.200 --> 0:27:12.880
<v Speaker 2>the personality is just like the cherry on the cake.

0:27:12.960 --> 0:27:15.159
<v Speaker 3>But you know what, I'm a feller at heart. And

0:27:15.240 --> 0:27:18.280
<v Speaker 3>my father that's what he did growing up. He owned

0:27:18.280 --> 0:27:21.320
<v Speaker 3>like camera stores and like you know the little row

0:27:21.600 --> 0:27:23.479
<v Speaker 3>like stores back in the day they'd have where they

0:27:23.480 --> 0:27:27.159
<v Speaker 3>were selling electronic those shops. That was my dad's like

0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:32.119
<v Speaker 3>line of work. Okay, And when I was growing up,

0:27:32.160 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean this shit, that's what I started selling clothes,

0:27:33.880 --> 0:27:41.040
<v Speaker 3>t mobile my BLIZZI Then then like literally everything about

0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:43.800
<v Speaker 3>it felt like selling to me, you know, Like it's

0:27:43.840 --> 0:27:45.640
<v Speaker 3>interesting the way Mandy and I have kind of done

0:27:45.640 --> 0:27:50.200
<v Speaker 3>our business. I always felt like she has really helped

0:27:50.280 --> 0:27:52.080
<v Speaker 3>us so much when it comes in terms of our finances.

0:27:52.119 --> 0:27:52.239
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:27:52.280 --> 0:27:54.680
<v Speaker 3>She had a financial background, and even though I came

0:27:54.680 --> 0:27:56.680
<v Speaker 3>from the tech world, was selling like I mean, I'm

0:27:56.680 --> 0:27:58.520
<v Speaker 3>the first person when we're on a call that's like

0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:00.600
<v Speaker 3>I want to do it for this much, this or that,

0:28:00.720 --> 0:28:03.400
<v Speaker 3>And like I loved that. We've been able to play

0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:05.679
<v Speaker 3>up both of our corporate roles in that. Yeah, and

0:28:06.040 --> 0:28:08.280
<v Speaker 3>I've got a lot of seller blood in me. My

0:28:08.320 --> 0:28:11.720
<v Speaker 3>partner Alex now with WTF Media Studios, anytime we have

0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:14.560
<v Speaker 3>a big deal or he sees someone's budget, he's like, oh,

0:28:14.600 --> 0:28:17.480
<v Speaker 3>you have to sell them on the phone. You have

0:28:17.560 --> 0:28:20.480
<v Speaker 3>to tell them why. And I really enjoy it. It makes

0:28:20.520 --> 0:28:21.920
<v Speaker 3>me feel like I still got it a little bit.

0:28:22.160 --> 0:28:22.600
<v Speaker 3>I Uh.

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:26.159
<v Speaker 2>I always say this that I think I used to

0:28:26.160 --> 0:28:26.560
<v Speaker 2>always say.

0:28:26.560 --> 0:28:28.000
<v Speaker 1>When I have a child, I want to teach her

0:28:28.000 --> 0:28:30.400
<v Speaker 1>how to read, I want to teach her financial literacy,

0:28:30.400 --> 0:28:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I want to teach her about God.

0:28:31.720 --> 0:28:33.440
<v Speaker 2>But the number one skill that she.

0:28:33.600 --> 0:28:36.679
<v Speaker 1>Has to have before she graduates high school is the

0:28:36.720 --> 0:28:40.040
<v Speaker 1>ability to sell. Because I think it is the most

0:28:40.280 --> 0:28:43.600
<v Speaker 1>underrated skill. And if you're going to go work for yourself.

0:28:43.840 --> 0:28:45.560
<v Speaker 1>The number one thing you're gonna have to do is

0:28:45.600 --> 0:28:49.680
<v Speaker 1>sell a product, sell yourself. And so I don't buy anything, yep.

0:28:49.920 --> 0:28:52.480
<v Speaker 1>And I remember when I had my first company. I

0:28:52.480 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>remember going to home deep or office depot and buying

0:28:55.320 --> 0:28:58.040
<v Speaker 1>those little sale books and you know how will out

0:28:58.080 --> 0:29:01.000
<v Speaker 1>my hair pulled back and all this and whatever. But

0:29:01.720 --> 0:29:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I knew right away that sales is the one skill.

0:29:05.400 --> 0:29:07.760
<v Speaker 1>And I would listen to all these audio tapes too

0:29:07.760 --> 0:29:10.600
<v Speaker 1>about like how people you know you're almost nervous getting

0:29:10.600 --> 0:29:10.960
<v Speaker 1>into it.

0:29:11.040 --> 0:29:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Well, what's interesting about selling too? I know Mandy and

0:29:13.360 --> 0:29:15.640
<v Speaker 3>I had a conversation about this, Like, so I never

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:18.320
<v Speaker 3>finished college because I couldn't afford to finish it because

0:29:18.680 --> 0:29:21.000
<v Speaker 3>I got out of that relationship, right, m I don't

0:29:21.000 --> 0:29:23.080
<v Speaker 3>want it to splatter in all this equipment. I don't

0:29:23.120 --> 0:29:27.360
<v Speaker 3>normally do it like this. But Mandy at the time

0:29:28.040 --> 0:29:30.960
<v Speaker 3>coming off of two degrees working for this huge firm,

0:29:31.320 --> 0:29:34.120
<v Speaker 3>and she was working more hours and not making as

0:29:34.200 --> 0:29:37.200
<v Speaker 3>much as me in accounting at that time. I understand

0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:39.200
<v Speaker 3>it was junior level. Yeah, but I think about that

0:29:39.240 --> 0:29:41.640
<v Speaker 3>a lot, and I think about the money you can

0:29:41.680 --> 0:29:44.080
<v Speaker 3>make from selling all the time, and I think about

0:29:44.080 --> 0:29:47.720
<v Speaker 3>that instance of like, shit, maybe she's smarter than me,

0:29:48.160 --> 0:29:50.120
<v Speaker 3>but why isn't she making it up? And it's because

0:29:51.280 --> 0:29:55.400
<v Speaker 3>that particular skill really can't be taught real you can't.

0:29:55.520 --> 0:29:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you gotta practice it and practice it and practice

0:29:58.280 --> 0:29:59.240
<v Speaker 1>it and practice it.

0:29:59.360 --> 0:30:02.160
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I believe Mandy is greater than what was

0:30:02.200 --> 0:30:05.600
<v Speaker 3>I gonna say, you know, the job that she had,

0:30:05.600 --> 0:30:07.320
<v Speaker 3>and that's why she's making way more and doing way

0:30:07.320 --> 0:30:10.600
<v Speaker 3>more things now. But yeah, I mean it's definitely a thing. Yeah.

0:30:11.360 --> 0:30:14.280
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, with selling doing shit like that, had horrible

0:30:14.320 --> 0:30:16.560
<v Speaker 3>decisions on the side, and it was really difficult to

0:30:16.600 --> 0:30:20.120
<v Speaker 3>juggle both. And so about two years into doing horrible decisions,

0:30:20.640 --> 0:30:22.640
<v Speaker 3>I quit. But it was mainly because I was like,

0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:25.320
<v Speaker 3>you know what, if I ever wanted to come back

0:30:25.320 --> 0:30:28.520
<v Speaker 3>to this shit, I will, Like I've been making jokes recently,

0:30:28.560 --> 0:30:30.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, oh my god, me and fifteen years I'm

0:30:30.320 --> 0:30:31.520
<v Speaker 3>probably gonna be a real estate agent.

0:30:32.400 --> 0:30:34.200
<v Speaker 2>So why did you quit?

0:30:34.240 --> 0:30:38.080
<v Speaker 3>Two years in the trajectory of horrible was faster than

0:30:38.080 --> 0:30:41.280
<v Speaker 3>the trajectory of corporate America. For example, how long do

0:30:41.320 --> 0:30:43.720
<v Speaker 3>we work a corporate job? Right? So you want to

0:30:43.760 --> 0:30:47.280
<v Speaker 3>get promoted? I worked for Tea Mobile six years I

0:30:47.320 --> 0:30:50.120
<v Speaker 3>got to be a manager after year three and a

0:30:50.160 --> 0:30:53.920
<v Speaker 3>half four, if there's a spot for you, so to me,

0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:57.880
<v Speaker 3>I kind of just felt like this is moving faster

0:30:58.600 --> 0:31:00.000
<v Speaker 3>than my rate in the corporate world.

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but you said you quit horrible.

0:31:02.720 --> 0:31:04.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh sorry, quit my corporate Oh.

0:31:04.400 --> 0:31:06.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay, Oh because you were like two years in

0:31:06.440 --> 0:31:10.000
<v Speaker 1>I quit horrible. So no, you quit your corporate okay, okay.

0:31:10.080 --> 0:31:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Got quit my corporate job after two years, and I

0:31:13.400 --> 0:31:16.960
<v Speaker 3>legitimately felt like it was not gonna make me.

0:31:18.400 --> 0:31:21.160
<v Speaker 1>But I have to ask before, how much were you

0:31:21.240 --> 0:31:22.880
<v Speaker 1>making it horrible.

0:31:23.120 --> 0:31:25.680
<v Speaker 2>To say, okay, not as you make it. Oh, you

0:31:25.680 --> 0:31:27.080
<v Speaker 2>weren't making as much as T Mobile.

0:31:27.200 --> 0:31:29.120
<v Speaker 3>So here's the thing, because a lot of people ask

0:31:29.240 --> 0:31:31.000
<v Speaker 3>me when is the right time to quit a job,

0:31:31.400 --> 0:31:34.280
<v Speaker 3>and I can only explain it like this, starting Team Mobile,

0:31:34.280 --> 0:31:37.840
<v Speaker 3>I made ninety thousand, ending I was around one seventy five, okay.

0:31:37.560 --> 0:31:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Which is damn T Mobile, Go ahead, go on.

0:31:40.560 --> 0:31:43.880
<v Speaker 3>It was like I was selling to companies that needed

0:31:43.920 --> 0:31:47.719
<v Speaker 3>like Ethernet I gradual disaster recovery, like I graduated from phones.

0:31:48.720 --> 0:31:52.880
<v Speaker 3>But basically this is what happens, so horrible decisions at

0:31:52.880 --> 0:31:55.000
<v Speaker 3>that time that I quit may have been making me

0:31:55.040 --> 0:31:58.920
<v Speaker 3>one hundred thousand, maybe one twenty five from touring mainly

0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:01.440
<v Speaker 3>not Patreon ad money.

0:32:01.480 --> 0:32:05.040
<v Speaker 2>And that's two years in Yeah, geez, all right, go on,

0:32:05.560 --> 0:32:05.920
<v Speaker 2>And I.

0:32:05.880 --> 0:32:07.840
<v Speaker 3>Think the tour money because Mandy and I were buying

0:32:07.880 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 3>out theaters, We brought out carolines on Broadway.

0:32:10.200 --> 0:32:12.800
<v Speaker 2>And you guys were physically doing it yourself.

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:15.920
<v Speaker 3>Splitting that money, paying ourselves back event bright type shit.

0:32:16.480 --> 0:32:21.640
<v Speaker 3>But what I realized was like, oh, took me six

0:32:21.720 --> 0:32:23.880
<v Speaker 3>years to make ninety to one to seventy. Ye, took

0:32:23.880 --> 0:32:27.280
<v Speaker 3>me two years from zero to one hundred. So next

0:32:27.400 --> 0:32:30.040
<v Speaker 3>year I'm gonna make more. Yeah, let's just say I

0:32:30.040 --> 0:32:32.320
<v Speaker 3>make another fifty. It's worth it. Not to mention I

0:32:32.360 --> 0:32:33.960
<v Speaker 3>have more time on my hands. I could probably do

0:32:34.000 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 3>more appearances and more tour dates, so it's time to quit.

0:32:37.760 --> 0:32:42.280
<v Speaker 3>I also remember one moment it was brilliant idiots. If

0:32:42.280 --> 0:32:44.840
<v Speaker 3>anyone watches that episode, I was literally wearing a suit

0:32:45.120 --> 0:32:47.120
<v Speaker 3>like a blazer and a skirt. But Mandy and I

0:32:47.160 --> 0:32:49.240
<v Speaker 3>had to like make an excuse to leave our jobs

0:32:49.280 --> 0:32:51.400
<v Speaker 3>that day to go shoot with charl Mane and Andrew.

0:32:52.160 --> 0:32:55.320
<v Speaker 3>So I think that it really will show you, like

0:32:55.440 --> 0:32:57.240
<v Speaker 3>when you have to start saying no, to things. Oh

0:32:57.880 --> 0:32:59.560
<v Speaker 3>oh yeah, when you have to start saying no to

0:32:59.600 --> 0:33:03.640
<v Speaker 3>things of your day job, Yes, maybe that's when it's time,

0:33:03.760 --> 0:33:06.360
<v Speaker 3>like when you're really getting booked like that, like TV

0:33:06.480 --> 0:33:09.360
<v Speaker 3>appearances even Like I remember we did Vice Live and

0:33:09.400 --> 0:33:11.400
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't be there early for the rehearsal because of

0:33:11.400 --> 0:33:14.600
<v Speaker 3>my job, and I was like, damn man, and anyone

0:33:15.160 --> 0:33:18.600
<v Speaker 3>who's watching this who might be semi getting entertainment, whether

0:33:18.600 --> 0:33:21.280
<v Speaker 3>you've got a TikTok or popular Instagram channel, you want

0:33:21.280 --> 0:33:23.320
<v Speaker 3>to do a Horrible Decisions podcast and maybe get or

0:33:23.360 --> 0:33:26.200
<v Speaker 3>even eating while robe. Who the fuck is gonna do

0:33:26.240 --> 0:33:29.120
<v Speaker 3>this shit at six thirty seven o'clock at night, right,

0:33:29.320 --> 0:33:31.160
<v Speaker 3>who's gonna do what? Like to have a guest?

0:33:31.440 --> 0:33:31.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:33:31.760 --> 0:33:34.840
<v Speaker 3>Entrepreneurs, Like all this shit gets filmed during the day. Yeah,

0:33:34.920 --> 0:33:37.120
<v Speaker 3>so it's really tough to have a nine to five

0:33:37.200 --> 0:33:41.360
<v Speaker 3>and pursue those entertainment dreams. And like that was why

0:33:41.400 --> 0:33:43.320
<v Speaker 3>I was like, I got to figure the shit out.

0:33:43.520 --> 0:33:48.280
<v Speaker 3>I think my biggest success in this industry came during

0:33:48.280 --> 0:33:53.400
<v Speaker 3>the pandemic while Pivoting. So made the TV show Sex Sells.

0:33:53.440 --> 0:33:56.440
<v Speaker 3>It's about the business of sex, having money, making money

0:33:56.480 --> 0:34:00.040
<v Speaker 3>from sex without having it, And I came up with

0:34:00.120 --> 0:34:02.240
<v Speaker 3>that because that's how I make money, right, I just

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:06.160
<v Speaker 3>basically talk about sex covered all these adult industries and

0:34:06.280 --> 0:34:08.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm not a TV star, and it ended up popping

0:34:08.120 --> 0:34:09.279
<v Speaker 3>on tuess And that's why I'm on.

0:34:09.280 --> 0:34:12.640
<v Speaker 1>To how did you Did you package that yourself and

0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:14.920
<v Speaker 1>then start selling it or did you package it and

0:34:14.960 --> 0:34:17.840
<v Speaker 1>then started calling Charlemagne or different people you have relationships

0:34:17.880 --> 0:34:20.160
<v Speaker 1>with and like, so have something that I need.

0:34:20.400 --> 0:34:22.160
<v Speaker 3>That's what made me the most proud. I didn't need

0:34:22.200 --> 0:34:24.920
<v Speaker 3>a co sign for that. Okay, I believe Horrible Decisions

0:34:24.920 --> 0:34:28.239
<v Speaker 3>had the Charlemagne co sign, and that's what made a

0:34:28.280 --> 0:34:30.120
<v Speaker 3>lot of people watching in the beginning. I do believe

0:34:30.239 --> 0:34:33.600
<v Speaker 3>Charlemagne made our success faster. Don't believe we're successful because

0:34:34.080 --> 0:34:39.400
<v Speaker 3>it happened faster. But what happened with Sex Sells was

0:34:39.440 --> 0:34:41.280
<v Speaker 3>like I just had so much time during the pandemic

0:34:41.320 --> 0:34:44.320
<v Speaker 3>to think, and I knew my two loves were fucking

0:34:44.320 --> 0:34:46.120
<v Speaker 3>in money m hm, and so I was like, oh

0:34:46.200 --> 0:34:48.320
<v Speaker 3>my god, I should make the show. I want to

0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:51.120
<v Speaker 3>humanize sex workers, and literally people don't talk about their

0:34:51.160 --> 0:34:53.440
<v Speaker 3>sex lives on it, and a lot of people have said, like, oh,

0:34:53.600 --> 0:34:55.040
<v Speaker 3>it's like horrible decisions on TV.

0:34:55.440 --> 0:34:57.120
<v Speaker 2>But it's even it doesn't sound like it.

0:34:57.120 --> 0:34:59.719
<v Speaker 1>It sounds completely different because you're talking about this set

0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:00.960
<v Speaker 1>workers right right.

0:35:00.960 --> 0:35:02.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm an interview a lot of the guests we had

0:35:03.440 --> 0:35:05.040
<v Speaker 3>so that I can, you know, show them some love

0:35:05.080 --> 0:35:07.839
<v Speaker 3>and they've got real businesses promote them. But no, it's

0:35:07.840 --> 0:35:11.319
<v Speaker 3>totally different and I love doing it. It makes me.

0:35:11.400 --> 0:35:13.440
<v Speaker 3>It really brought me into the world of seeing how

0:35:13.480 --> 0:35:16.400
<v Speaker 3>production works, the larger skill budgets and money.

0:35:17.080 --> 0:35:19.799
<v Speaker 1>So but you pitched it yourself, That's what I'm saying,

0:35:19.800 --> 0:35:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Like you went out there or did you have a

0:35:21.520 --> 0:35:23.520
<v Speaker 1>manager that helped you so.

0:35:23.400 --> 0:35:25.839
<v Speaker 3>It started slow. I didn't have a manager, never had

0:35:25.880 --> 0:35:28.680
<v Speaker 3>an agent ever.

0:35:29.360 --> 0:35:30.879
<v Speaker 2>Basically, oh still to this date.

0:35:32.160 --> 0:35:34.360
<v Speaker 3>No, not personally, I'm damn, you're a gangster. I have

0:35:34.400 --> 0:35:36.400
<v Speaker 3>a person that gives I give them a cut of

0:35:36.440 --> 0:35:38.080
<v Speaker 3>my money if they do pr stuff for me, but

0:35:39.560 --> 0:35:43.160
<v Speaker 3>if they get me a deal. But yeah, So basically,

0:35:43.840 --> 0:35:45.400
<v Speaker 3>there was a guy that reached out to me months

0:35:45.400 --> 0:35:48.080
<v Speaker 3>back before the pandemic was like, oh, do you want

0:35:48.080 --> 0:35:49.800
<v Speaker 3>to do this type of show? I was like, no,

0:35:50.760 --> 0:35:53.560
<v Speaker 3>Pandemic hits and I was like, you know what, I

0:35:53.560 --> 0:35:55.960
<v Speaker 3>wonder what the fuck he's doing. It's like he making

0:35:55.960 --> 0:35:59.919
<v Speaker 3>TV is TV being made? And we started talking about

0:36:00.160 --> 0:36:02.319
<v Speaker 3>what it would look like if we worked together and

0:36:02.760 --> 0:36:04.879
<v Speaker 3>came up with sex cells together. He worked at FEWS

0:36:04.920 --> 0:36:07.480
<v Speaker 3>at the time. Help me package it, Oh, help me

0:36:07.520 --> 0:36:10.160
<v Speaker 3>make a bible. And we did it that way. But

0:36:10.280 --> 0:36:12.200
<v Speaker 3>what I will tell anyone that has a good TV

0:36:12.320 --> 0:36:16.640
<v Speaker 3>idea is people that work in development needs shows all

0:36:16.640 --> 0:36:20.880
<v Speaker 3>the time. I currently run development for Kenya Barris at Audible. Right, Okay,

0:36:20.920 --> 0:36:24.000
<v Speaker 3>don't send me shit right now, I'm done with that.

0:36:24.120 --> 0:36:27.600
<v Speaker 3>But like literally, I was wondering what shows we're gonna

0:36:27.600 --> 0:36:30.440
<v Speaker 3>make for him, Like developers want to fucking know, and

0:36:30.520 --> 0:36:35.200
<v Speaker 3>if you have good ideas, shooting pilots, making decks, having

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:37.919
<v Speaker 3>a bible, having the demographics of why it would be good,

0:36:38.239 --> 0:36:40.399
<v Speaker 3>not just coming in their blank like hey, I'm not

0:36:40.440 --> 0:36:43.120
<v Speaker 3>doing anything like I've been doing XYZ. Like if you

0:36:43.160 --> 0:36:45.640
<v Speaker 3>hit up the Food Network, you'd have how much to

0:36:45.680 --> 0:36:46.360
<v Speaker 3>show them?

0:36:46.640 --> 0:36:47.040
<v Speaker 2>So real?

0:36:47.320 --> 0:36:47.919
<v Speaker 3>You know what I mean.

0:36:48.480 --> 0:36:50.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna take notes. Remember how I said I'll take

0:36:50.400 --> 0:36:51.480
<v Speaker 2>it notes, goge you.

0:36:51.560 --> 0:36:54.560
<v Speaker 3>Did, But like here it is, here's my spread, and

0:36:54.600 --> 0:36:56.200
<v Speaker 3>this is what I do with this type of budget.

0:36:56.280 --> 0:36:59.200
<v Speaker 3>Imagine if you gave me fifty thousand an episode, I

0:36:59.200 --> 0:37:01.120
<v Speaker 3>could be doing it on THEE. I could be coming

0:37:01.160 --> 0:37:02.640
<v Speaker 3>to their homes. I could be x y Z.

0:37:02.920 --> 0:37:03.040
<v Speaker 5>Like.

0:37:03.760 --> 0:37:06.919
<v Speaker 3>There's so many different ways for the things that we're

0:37:06.920 --> 0:37:09.359
<v Speaker 3>making right now to make them next level. Yeah, and

0:37:09.440 --> 0:37:12.400
<v Speaker 3>so I think that we just kind of have to

0:37:12.480 --> 0:37:15.680
<v Speaker 3>use our network. Like my biggest thing with playing chess

0:37:16.200 --> 0:37:19.000
<v Speaker 3>is making sure that I'm rubbing elbows with those that

0:37:19.160 --> 0:37:23.200
<v Speaker 3>can one day need to use me for something.

0:37:23.440 --> 0:37:27.360
<v Speaker 2>I need to use you. That's awesome, Yeah.

0:37:27.160 --> 0:37:29.840
<v Speaker 3>Because the thing is, I remember Charlotte, he said this

0:37:29.880 --> 0:37:32.240
<v Speaker 3>about someone They were like. He was like, that person

0:37:32.320 --> 0:37:35.840
<v Speaker 3>is such an opportunist, and I was like, I wonder

0:37:35.880 --> 0:37:38.800
<v Speaker 3>if that's who I am. But really, I don't ask

0:37:39.239 --> 0:37:41.120
<v Speaker 3>I let every single person know what the fuck I do.

0:37:41.560 --> 0:37:44.200
<v Speaker 3>I just had a dinner where I sat down next

0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:45.960
<v Speaker 3>to one of the most famous comedians in the world.

0:37:45.960 --> 0:37:48.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't even know if this person can travel on

0:37:48.800 --> 0:37:51.240
<v Speaker 3>a commercial plane, that's how famous they are, right. Wow.

0:37:51.640 --> 0:37:53.160
<v Speaker 3>When they asked me what I do, didn't even say

0:37:53.160 --> 0:37:55.080
<v Speaker 3>a podcasting. I was like, I own a production studio

0:37:55.200 --> 0:37:57.640
<v Speaker 3>in New York and LA. It's black owned. We shoot

0:37:57.680 --> 0:38:01.120
<v Speaker 3>podcasts mainly, but we also have a mobile team Boom.

0:38:01.239 --> 0:38:03.239
<v Speaker 3>Now it's in your brain. Now you know what you

0:38:03.239 --> 0:38:05.160
<v Speaker 3>can use me for. Like, that's the job I felt

0:38:05.160 --> 0:38:07.640
<v Speaker 3>like I needed to sell to that person at the time.

0:38:07.640 --> 0:38:10.080
<v Speaker 3>When I talk to TV show, TV networks or people

0:38:10.080 --> 0:38:11.839
<v Speaker 3>that work in Netflix or different things like that I host,

0:38:11.920 --> 0:38:13.919
<v Speaker 3>I do this, I do that right, Like I want

0:38:13.920 --> 0:38:16.640
<v Speaker 3>to make sure that I'm useful to people that I've

0:38:16.640 --> 0:38:17.520
<v Speaker 3>rebbed elbows with.

0:38:17.680 --> 0:38:20.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think your sales skills like shines through. I

0:38:20.320 --> 0:38:23.239
<v Speaker 1>always say, like sales is more about paying attention to

0:38:23.280 --> 0:38:26.880
<v Speaker 1>what the customer wants, listening to them.

0:38:26.280 --> 0:38:28.440
<v Speaker 2>And then catering to their needs.

0:38:28.600 --> 0:38:30.839
<v Speaker 1>That's just trying to sell someone something that they don't

0:38:30.880 --> 0:38:33.560
<v Speaker 1>want to buy. So even the way you're talking is

0:38:33.560 --> 0:38:37.160
<v Speaker 1>like your sales skills are just really amazing. Yeah, because

0:38:37.200 --> 0:38:39.280
<v Speaker 1>that's how it is. You're supposed to sell. You're supposed

0:38:39.280 --> 0:38:41.560
<v Speaker 1>to you know, if someone walks up to me right now,

0:38:41.719 --> 0:38:44.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna think about, you know what it is they're

0:38:44.840 --> 0:38:45.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna need or want from me.

0:38:46.040 --> 0:38:48.080
<v Speaker 3>Correct. You know, that's a really good point because I

0:38:48.080 --> 0:38:50.319
<v Speaker 3>didn't even think about me selling myself in that way,

0:38:50.360 --> 0:38:51.239
<v Speaker 3>but like, damn it is.

0:38:51.480 --> 0:38:51.839
<v Speaker 2>It is.

0:38:52.000 --> 0:38:55.640
<v Speaker 1>But now opportunists is different because opportunists are I always

0:38:55.680 --> 0:38:58.240
<v Speaker 1>say I want to be a business person, not a hustler,

0:38:58.280 --> 0:39:00.719
<v Speaker 1>because I feel like a hustler is like, I'm gonna

0:39:00.719 --> 0:39:03.280
<v Speaker 1>take advantage, someone's gonna get a short end of a stick.

0:39:03.400 --> 0:39:05.719
<v Speaker 1>But a business person is like, we're all gonna win.

0:39:05.840 --> 0:39:07.600
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna walk away with your piece of the pie.

0:39:07.920 --> 0:39:09.600
<v Speaker 1>She's gonna walk away with her piece of pie, and

0:39:09.600 --> 0:39:10.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna walk away with my piece.

0:39:10.840 --> 0:39:13.359
<v Speaker 3>And no one feels to agreed. You can never make

0:39:13.440 --> 0:39:15.240
<v Speaker 3>someone feel like they're doing you a favor.

0:39:15.440 --> 0:39:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like at all.

0:39:17.640 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, Charlotte Mane was lucky and lucky enough to

0:39:20.160 --> 0:39:23.400
<v Speaker 3>make horrible decisions with his rollout on Black Effect. I

0:39:23.400 --> 0:39:25.759
<v Speaker 3>know there's eighty five South all the smoke, and I

0:39:25.920 --> 0:39:29.040
<v Speaker 3>literally was thinking to myself the other day, Charla Mainne

0:39:29.040 --> 0:39:31.200
<v Speaker 3>is Charlot Mane, But horrible decisions was still good enough

0:39:31.200 --> 0:39:33.640
<v Speaker 3>to where Black Effects was like, oh, we do need

0:39:33.680 --> 0:39:35.719
<v Speaker 3>those numbers. But when we sell to add people like

0:39:35.960 --> 0:39:39.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to fucking suck anybody's dick to feel

0:39:39.960 --> 0:39:41.759
<v Speaker 3>like and I'm not talking about that instance, but just

0:39:41.800 --> 0:39:43.960
<v Speaker 3>anyone like, thank you so much for giving this to you. Yeah, yeah,

0:39:43.960 --> 0:39:46.000
<v Speaker 3>when you know your value, yeah yeah, we have to

0:39:46.040 --> 0:39:48.840
<v Speaker 3>make sure that we're definitely pouring into ourselves in that way.

0:39:49.120 --> 0:39:52.040
<v Speaker 3>But I mean, shit, you know I love fuse to death,

0:39:52.400 --> 0:39:54.840
<v Speaker 3>but I also know my show brings number then and

0:39:54.880 --> 0:39:56.399
<v Speaker 3>I know that's why they treat me well. They love

0:39:56.480 --> 0:39:59.840
<v Speaker 3>me too, Like we're definitely doing what we need to

0:39:59.880 --> 0:40:03.000
<v Speaker 3>do for each other. Like I'm so happy to be

0:40:03.320 --> 0:40:05.960
<v Speaker 3>on a network that you know I can be their

0:40:05.960 --> 0:40:07.799
<v Speaker 3>most watch show. Like maybe if I was on an

0:40:07.960 --> 0:40:10.680
<v Speaker 3>HBO or some Netflix, maybe I would just kind of

0:40:10.719 --> 0:40:11.480
<v Speaker 3>go under the radar.

0:40:12.120 --> 0:40:14.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so. Maybe I honestly don't think so.

0:40:15.080 --> 0:40:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, I don't think so. I'm not even trying

0:40:17.000 --> 0:40:33.880
<v Speaker 2>to be not well, what was your hardest hurdle?

0:40:34.000 --> 0:40:36.160
<v Speaker 1>I think it just to come to day because I

0:40:36.200 --> 0:40:38.279
<v Speaker 1>feel like you have a lot of great pivots. But like,

0:40:38.360 --> 0:40:40.799
<v Speaker 1>where was there a point where you were like I

0:40:40.840 --> 0:40:47.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know, hmm that you seriously like had that conversation

0:40:47.160 --> 0:40:47.680
<v Speaker 1>of I don't know.

0:40:47.719 --> 0:40:50.640
<v Speaker 3>And it could have been my studio. Okay, my studio,

0:40:50.719 --> 0:40:53.000
<v Speaker 3>which is the best thing I've ever done. Actually, my

0:40:53.040 --> 0:40:57.440
<v Speaker 3>studio gave me the seal of approval to be bigger

0:40:57.440 --> 0:41:00.560
<v Speaker 3>than just a podcaster, Like that was when I became

0:41:00.560 --> 0:41:03.200
<v Speaker 3>a businesswoman. No matter how hard Mandy and I have worked.

0:41:03.480 --> 0:41:06.160
<v Speaker 3>I never felt like that, and it's no shade to her.

0:41:06.200 --> 0:41:07.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if it's because with women. I don't

0:41:07.520 --> 0:41:09.000
<v Speaker 3>know if it's because we talk about sex, but like

0:41:09.239 --> 0:41:12.400
<v Speaker 3>I had to do something else for myself to feel

0:41:12.440 --> 0:41:15.680
<v Speaker 3>like I could be respected. And it really shows something

0:41:15.719 --> 0:41:19.560
<v Speaker 3>about brick and mortar spaces to make people feel very like, oh,

0:41:19.560 --> 0:41:22.799
<v Speaker 3>they're really doing something, which is weird. But it's also

0:41:22.840 --> 0:41:24.959
<v Speaker 3>because I started getting other people money, Like.

0:41:25.760 --> 0:41:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Thought, what was the hesitancy, Like, where was that hesitancy at? Like,

0:41:28.960 --> 0:41:30.480
<v Speaker 2>where was that pain that investment?

0:41:30.880 --> 0:41:33.600
<v Speaker 3>Right? My partner Alex shout out to him, we spent

0:41:33.960 --> 0:41:37.680
<v Speaker 3>an insane amount of money on fucking equipment, which is

0:41:37.680 --> 0:41:40.640
<v Speaker 3>why we have one of the best studios right, Like literally,

0:41:40.680 --> 0:41:42.440
<v Speaker 3>I was like, how can we be charging people this

0:41:42.560 --> 0:41:46.040
<v Speaker 3>little but like our equipment is so fucking expensive, like

0:41:46.080 --> 0:41:49.000
<v Speaker 3>it doesn't add up or whatever. Yeah, and he was like, Yo,

0:41:49.560 --> 0:41:51.839
<v Speaker 3>that's why everybody's gonna come with us, to know that

0:41:51.880 --> 0:41:55.360
<v Speaker 3>the podcasters like us can be there and then the

0:41:55.440 --> 0:41:57.640
<v Speaker 3>Charlottamanees of the world or whoever they may be. David

0:41:57.680 --> 0:42:00.000
<v Speaker 3>Letterman wasn't our shit, Oh shit, right?

0:42:00.239 --> 0:42:03.120
<v Speaker 2>Okay, he's like to know these people and okay.

0:42:02.920 --> 0:42:05.560
<v Speaker 3>You can sit amongst them like we're gonna be for

0:42:05.680 --> 0:42:08.000
<v Speaker 3>all of them. And that's really been our brand. I

0:42:08.000 --> 0:42:10.719
<v Speaker 3>believe that's why we're growing. I mean, we get resumes

0:42:10.760 --> 0:42:12.120
<v Speaker 3>like fucking crazy every day.

0:42:12.320 --> 0:42:15.160
<v Speaker 1>So how long did it take when you so you

0:42:15.200 --> 0:42:19.080
<v Speaker 1>made that initial investment. The by the way, you're cooking

0:42:19.200 --> 0:42:21.440
<v Speaker 1>like we are in a rich restaurant.

0:42:21.000 --> 0:42:23.319
<v Speaker 2>Because the point look at all the food she.

0:42:23.320 --> 0:42:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Made, and it's like, I feel like I'm about to

0:42:26.040 --> 0:42:27.360
<v Speaker 1>eat an appetizer, Gormet.

0:42:27.560 --> 0:42:29.680
<v Speaker 3>You try to make it look clean and minimally.

0:42:31.600 --> 0:42:33.640
<v Speaker 1>When the cameras are off, I'm gonna just go in

0:42:33.680 --> 0:42:35.960
<v Speaker 1>with a fork and just eat everything direct.

0:42:36.280 --> 0:42:39.560
<v Speaker 2>I know it. Yeah, because I'm starving and you gave

0:42:39.600 --> 0:42:40.920
<v Speaker 2>me like an appetizer.

0:42:41.280 --> 0:42:44.279
<v Speaker 3>It's fucking hot dogs. Girl.

0:42:44.320 --> 0:42:46.120
<v Speaker 1>I want to see you sit down next to this

0:42:46.200 --> 0:42:47.600
<v Speaker 1>mic and spend quality time with me.

0:42:47.800 --> 0:42:52.160
<v Speaker 3>Okay, okay, let's try this. It looks good but.

0:42:55.920 --> 0:42:56.359
<v Speaker 5>Not bad.

0:42:57.680 --> 0:42:59.960
<v Speaker 3>You look's the onions.

0:43:00.360 --> 0:43:02.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm surprised you didn't mix these in together.

0:43:03.440 --> 0:43:07.080
<v Speaker 3>Funny enough, my co host talks about Haitian spaghetti and

0:43:07.160 --> 0:43:10.440
<v Speaker 3>it's hot dogs in it. I never mixed the hot

0:43:10.440 --> 0:43:13.000
<v Speaker 3>dogs of pasta. But this is kind of good. This

0:43:13.000 --> 0:43:14.640
<v Speaker 3>ship is amazing. Did you mix it all on one?

0:43:14.680 --> 0:43:14.880
<v Speaker 5>For it?

0:43:15.560 --> 0:43:18.080
<v Speaker 3>I put it together on I don't want to touch

0:43:18.120 --> 0:43:18.520
<v Speaker 3>on the plate.

0:43:18.640 --> 0:43:22.440
<v Speaker 2>For all y'all listeners. The hot dog and the onions smack.

0:43:22.600 --> 0:43:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I definitely will mess with Nathan's just because I feel

0:43:25.080 --> 0:43:26.920
<v Speaker 1>like maybe it tastes different or I just haven't had

0:43:26.920 --> 0:43:30.000
<v Speaker 1>a hot dog in a while. But the freaking grilled

0:43:30.040 --> 0:43:34.759
<v Speaker 1>onions and mac and cheese cheese is genius. Bro I

0:43:34.760 --> 0:43:37.400
<v Speaker 1>don't know why I've never thought of seasoning up my

0:43:37.480 --> 0:43:38.320
<v Speaker 1>mac and cheese.

0:43:39.160 --> 0:43:41.800
<v Speaker 2>But the grilled onions, it's crunchy, it's amazing.

0:43:42.320 --> 0:43:43.640
<v Speaker 3>I am so happy.

0:43:45.000 --> 0:43:48.000
<v Speaker 2>I am very impressible. The only thing is.

0:43:49.680 --> 0:43:52.120
<v Speaker 1>I would maybe add and I don't even know, but

0:43:52.239 --> 0:43:55.440
<v Speaker 1>do you agree? Would you add more salt to the

0:43:55.480 --> 0:43:56.200
<v Speaker 1>mac and cheese?

0:43:56.320 --> 0:43:57.879
<v Speaker 3>Oh? I put salt on my stuff, but I don't

0:43:57.880 --> 0:43:59.680
<v Speaker 3>want to do that to people. Oh okay, that's what

0:44:00.120 --> 0:44:03.200
<v Speaker 3>the lorries for you. You know, sodium is a bitch nowadays.

0:44:03.480 --> 0:44:05.080
<v Speaker 3>M Plus, there's a lot of salt in that Tony

0:44:05.120 --> 0:44:06.560
<v Speaker 3>Sharia whatever name is.

0:44:07.480 --> 0:44:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:44:08.400 --> 0:44:11.640
<v Speaker 1>So for a girl that came from money, went broke,

0:44:13.160 --> 0:44:16.640
<v Speaker 1>had sugar daddies and it's self made to the point

0:44:16.640 --> 0:44:23.000
<v Speaker 1>of flying your family in from Orlando to LA still

0:44:23.040 --> 0:44:25.439
<v Speaker 1>in the early early I don't even want to say

0:44:25.440 --> 0:44:29.040
<v Speaker 1>how early thirties she is because all of us are listening.

0:44:30.120 --> 0:44:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Can you believe that much you've accomplished. It's amazing.

0:44:35.239 --> 0:44:37.360
<v Speaker 3>You know. Sometimes I get scared, like I'll lose it,

0:44:38.200 --> 0:44:41.080
<v Speaker 3>But then I realize the hunger that I have to

0:44:41.200 --> 0:44:45.320
<v Speaker 3>help everybody around me is too deep. It's too intense

0:44:45.360 --> 0:44:46.520
<v Speaker 3>that I don't think it could happen.

0:44:46.840 --> 0:44:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Now do you deal with well?

0:44:48.360 --> 0:44:51.680
<v Speaker 1>You said you have multiple companies. You're definitely spread. It

0:44:51.760 --> 0:44:54.040
<v Speaker 1>sounds to me like you're spread pretty thin. I'm so

0:44:54.120 --> 0:44:56.080
<v Speaker 1>happy you shared that because I always.

0:44:55.840 --> 0:44:57.560
<v Speaker 2>Think that maybe I'm doing something wrong if I have

0:44:57.680 --> 0:44:59.479
<v Speaker 2>so many hustles going at the same time.

0:45:00.000 --> 0:45:02.920
<v Speaker 3>You know, there is something to be said about a

0:45:02.920 --> 0:45:06.479
<v Speaker 3>master of none. But I will say this much what's

0:45:06.520 --> 0:45:11.759
<v Speaker 3>worked for me. I don't steal anybody's idea. I really

0:45:11.840 --> 0:45:14.359
<v Speaker 3>ride my own wave. I made a studio not because

0:45:14.400 --> 0:45:16.719
<v Speaker 3>there's other podcast studios, because there were no black owned

0:45:16.760 --> 0:45:20.839
<v Speaker 3>ones that were gonna have podcasters run it. I'd never

0:45:20.840 --> 0:45:23.400
<v Speaker 3>been to a podcast studio run by a podcaster. I

0:45:23.440 --> 0:45:26.640
<v Speaker 3>made horrible decisions because I really wanted to do a

0:45:26.680 --> 0:45:29.719
<v Speaker 3>fun sex show with someone that I knew was authentic,

0:45:30.280 --> 0:45:32.759
<v Speaker 3>and there were no black shows about sex that were

0:45:32.760 --> 0:45:35.320
<v Speaker 3>hosted by normal girls. Yeah right, it was always like

0:45:35.360 --> 0:45:38.239
<v Speaker 3>porn stars or whatever. Everything that I've done so far

0:45:38.360 --> 0:45:41.759
<v Speaker 3>hadn't seen before except for stock, I would say, But like,

0:45:42.400 --> 0:45:46.040
<v Speaker 3>I've really rode my own wave, and that's why I

0:45:46.080 --> 0:45:50.480
<v Speaker 3>think it's worked. So when you do too many different

0:45:50.520 --> 0:45:54.200
<v Speaker 3>trades and you're taking an idea, like your concept is different.

0:45:54.239 --> 0:45:57.160
<v Speaker 3>We've all seen a cooking show which your concept is different, right, Yeah. Yeah,

0:45:57.200 --> 0:45:59.839
<v Speaker 3>So it's like you have to have something different at

0:45:59.880 --> 0:46:02.000
<v Speaker 3>it to it, and I think that if you don't,

0:46:02.120 --> 0:46:03.880
<v Speaker 3>you then become a master of none because you're just

0:46:03.920 --> 0:46:06.760
<v Speaker 3>trying to do things that other people do. Yeah, that's tough.

0:46:07.480 --> 0:46:11.839
<v Speaker 1>I have a fear of I don't even know where

0:46:11.840 --> 0:46:13.680
<v Speaker 1>this fear came from, but when it comes to partnering

0:46:13.719 --> 0:46:17.400
<v Speaker 1>with other people, I feel like my greatest asset is

0:46:17.520 --> 0:46:20.440
<v Speaker 1>my relationships, and it's probably because I have so much integrity.

0:46:20.440 --> 0:46:22.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, dude, I won't hurt a full I really

0:46:22.880 --> 0:46:25.080
<v Speaker 1>won't even hurt a fly because I want to treat

0:46:25.080 --> 0:46:26.719
<v Speaker 1>people the way I would want to be treated, So

0:46:26.800 --> 0:46:29.840
<v Speaker 1>my loyalty is there. But when I see like you

0:46:29.920 --> 0:46:32.680
<v Speaker 1>and Mandy working together and you and Alex working together,

0:46:32.719 --> 0:46:35.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, either the integrity on you has got to

0:46:35.840 --> 0:46:38.960
<v Speaker 1>be super lit or how are you managing that partnership?

0:46:38.960 --> 0:46:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Because I always I always get nervous, like what if

0:46:41.640 --> 0:46:44.440
<v Speaker 1>the other partner doesn't hold up or there's a disagreement?

0:46:44.480 --> 0:46:46.120
<v Speaker 2>So how do you how do you navigate that?

0:46:46.880 --> 0:46:49.160
<v Speaker 3>My first partnership I've ever had was with Mandy right,

0:46:49.200 --> 0:46:53.080
<v Speaker 3>and Mandy and I had stopped we're friends, stopp being friends,

0:46:53.120 --> 0:46:55.359
<v Speaker 3>became friends again during the show, fell out of friendship again.

0:46:55.400 --> 0:47:00.920
<v Speaker 3>But I think we are so hungry to make money

0:47:01.000 --> 0:47:03.120
<v Speaker 3>that we look past that and we're able to think

0:47:03.160 --> 0:47:05.839
<v Speaker 3>of the greater purpose. Like if I had a co

0:47:05.960 --> 0:47:09.320
<v Speaker 3>host that wasn't about our fans, maybe I couldn't do

0:47:09.360 --> 0:47:11.440
<v Speaker 3>the job, you know what I'm saying. But Mandy's a

0:47:11.440 --> 0:47:14.680
<v Speaker 3>self starter like I am too. Yeah, so it's not tough.

0:47:14.760 --> 0:47:19.279
<v Speaker 3>Like Mandy and I were on tour putting together the

0:47:19.320 --> 0:47:21.239
<v Speaker 3>merch table or doing something with the merchan o, the

0:47:21.320 --> 0:47:24.520
<v Speaker 3>VIP things, and you know, if I see her doing something,

0:47:24.520 --> 0:47:25.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't want her to do it alone.

0:47:25.680 --> 0:47:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Like, yeah, because oh nice, okay.

0:47:28.120 --> 0:47:29.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, and I think she feels the same for me,

0:47:29.960 --> 0:47:32.080
<v Speaker 3>so we definitely try and trust me, I have a

0:47:32.080 --> 0:47:34.360
<v Speaker 3>time where I didn't even realize how much work she

0:47:34.440 --> 0:47:37.320
<v Speaker 3>was putting in with the finance stuff. She's making spreadsheets

0:47:37.360 --> 0:47:39.040
<v Speaker 3>and shit back then and doing stuff I didn't even

0:47:39.120 --> 0:47:41.799
<v Speaker 3>understand that works. I would try to do it on

0:47:41.800 --> 0:47:47.840
<v Speaker 3>the creative side. But like I think for me, with partnerships,

0:47:48.520 --> 0:47:50.359
<v Speaker 3>there's a skill set that someone has that I don't.

0:47:50.719 --> 0:47:53.880
<v Speaker 3>You know, wtf is so about the tech which is

0:47:53.920 --> 0:47:56.799
<v Speaker 3>all Alex and not me. But I do have to

0:47:56.800 --> 0:48:00.439
<v Speaker 3>give myself credit on how we were able to get

0:48:00.440 --> 0:48:02.080
<v Speaker 3>this shit going. I just don't know how much I

0:48:02.120 --> 0:48:04.560
<v Speaker 3>rent is where the light deal come from. He don't

0:48:04.560 --> 0:48:06.319
<v Speaker 3>know what the fuck going on, which is great, yeah,

0:48:06.400 --> 0:48:08.640
<v Speaker 3>figure out the other shit. Like I really learned how

0:48:08.640 --> 0:48:10.319
<v Speaker 3>to use our skills and work together in that way,

0:48:10.360 --> 0:48:12.359
<v Speaker 3>and it's definitely been touched. She's one of my tough

0:48:12.400 --> 0:48:14.719
<v Speaker 3>he's one of my best friends, and it's like damn, now,

0:48:14.760 --> 0:48:17.399
<v Speaker 3>sometimes it's all work. So we really have to feed

0:48:17.400 --> 0:48:18.799
<v Speaker 3>that friendship. You know. We have to have a night

0:48:18.840 --> 0:48:20.239
<v Speaker 3>where we get drunk together and have fun and not

0:48:20.280 --> 0:48:22.759
<v Speaker 3>talk about work. We have to really do that to

0:48:22.920 --> 0:48:25.560
<v Speaker 3>enjoy each other and separate it because it's tough.

0:48:25.680 --> 0:48:29.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know with Dolly. Dolly and I came from

0:48:29.239 --> 0:48:30.280
<v Speaker 1>the Nick Cannon area.

0:48:30.520 --> 0:48:31.440
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people don't know this.

0:48:31.600 --> 0:48:34.560
<v Speaker 3>So my whole hookup with Black Effects, the president of

0:48:34.600 --> 0:48:35.600
<v Speaker 3>Black Man, yeah.

0:48:35.600 --> 0:48:37.520
<v Speaker 2>My stuff was an accident. It was legit.

0:48:37.600 --> 0:48:40.839
<v Speaker 1>I was telling Dolly I was literally like flying weed

0:48:40.920 --> 0:48:44.040
<v Speaker 1>money during the pandemic because I was I was hustling

0:48:44.080 --> 0:48:47.280
<v Speaker 1>all different directions. But anyways, I was trying to build

0:48:47.280 --> 0:48:49.759
<v Speaker 1>this show and I was like, Dolly, I think you

0:48:49.800 --> 0:48:52.200
<v Speaker 1>should be a part of it. But you know, she

0:48:52.320 --> 0:48:55.640
<v Speaker 1>had this other job offer and she's like should I

0:48:55.719 --> 0:48:57.000
<v Speaker 1>take him? Like, as long as they don't tell you

0:48:57.040 --> 0:48:59.200
<v Speaker 1>to go to work, girl, I'm all about taking all checks.

0:48:59.239 --> 0:49:00.879
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know it was the President of the Black

0:49:00.880 --> 0:49:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Effect or whatever. They happened to need a cooking show,

0:49:04.200 --> 0:49:07.920
<v Speaker 1>and she pitched Eating While Broke and called me like,

0:49:07.920 --> 0:49:08.759
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna kill me?

0:49:08.800 --> 0:49:11.000
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, why would I kill you? We're

0:49:11.040 --> 0:49:11.960
<v Speaker 2>actual friends, you know.

0:49:12.200 --> 0:49:12.600
<v Speaker 3>I told you.

0:49:12.760 --> 0:49:14.840
<v Speaker 2>She's like, I told you know.

0:49:14.920 --> 0:49:18.640
<v Speaker 1>iHeart and ICM and Charlemagne about Eating while Broke and

0:49:19.560 --> 0:49:23.160
<v Speaker 1>they loved it, and I was like, okay, So where

0:49:23.200 --> 0:49:25.560
<v Speaker 1>do I kill you. She's like, well, they you know,

0:49:25.600 --> 0:49:28.080
<v Speaker 1>we run a podcast network and your show is you

0:49:28.120 --> 0:49:31.400
<v Speaker 1>want to do a TV show. I'm like, Dolly, the

0:49:31.520 --> 0:49:34.319
<v Speaker 1>table was just built in my garage. My neighbors are

0:49:34.400 --> 0:49:37.200
<v Speaker 1>driving past it. I actually don't even know where this

0:49:37.239 --> 0:49:40.359
<v Speaker 1>table is gonna go, okay, and I think I had

0:49:40.480 --> 0:49:42.880
<v Speaker 1>just found out I was pregnant or I was like

0:49:43.080 --> 0:49:47.000
<v Speaker 1>borderline in that conversation, and I was like, shit, you

0:49:47.040 --> 0:49:50.600
<v Speaker 1>know I was doing illegal weed activity. I was hustling

0:49:50.600 --> 0:49:52.720
<v Speaker 1>in all these different plings. But I had this idea

0:49:52.840 --> 0:49:55.120
<v Speaker 1>that was literally sitting in my garage, Like they just

0:49:55.160 --> 0:49:58.040
<v Speaker 1>finished putting the forks on the table, and I'm like, Dolly,

0:49:58.160 --> 0:49:59.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm about to go broke. And I done pitched all

0:49:59.840 --> 0:50:01.879
<v Speaker 1>my celebrity friends. But I don't even know if we're

0:50:01.920 --> 0:50:03.680
<v Speaker 1>just taking this table to their house or how we're

0:50:03.680 --> 0:50:06.200
<v Speaker 1>even doing it, So why would I kill you?

0:50:06.840 --> 0:50:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Like?

0:50:07.160 --> 0:50:08.480
<v Speaker 1>And she was like, yeah, well they want to send

0:50:08.520 --> 0:50:10.400
<v Speaker 1>you an offer like and I was like, She's like,

0:50:10.400 --> 0:50:11.759
<v Speaker 1>can you send me all your decks and stuff? And

0:50:11.800 --> 0:50:14.239
<v Speaker 1>I was like yeah, I had already had everything made.

0:50:14.280 --> 0:50:16.200
<v Speaker 1>But it was really no reason to kill her. But

0:50:16.320 --> 0:50:19.440
<v Speaker 1>even to this day. Like sometimes as friends, I'll have

0:50:19.480 --> 0:50:21.200
<v Speaker 1>to get on the phone with her and she'll be like,

0:50:21.280 --> 0:50:23.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to talk business, or we could talk friends.

0:50:23.640 --> 0:50:25.480
<v Speaker 2>So that's how we managed a friendship. It'd be like,

0:50:25.600 --> 0:50:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Dolly ain't joining here nothing about work.

0:50:27.880 --> 0:50:30.160
<v Speaker 3>That's tough. When someone's like cutting that's tough.

0:50:30.280 --> 0:50:31.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, oh yeah.

0:50:31.600 --> 0:50:33.600
<v Speaker 3>I remember the first time I heard attitude from DOLLI

0:50:33.640 --> 0:50:34.800
<v Speaker 3>when I was asking for more money.

0:50:34.800 --> 0:50:36.719
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, oh yeah, Dolly will tell me

0:50:36.800 --> 0:50:38.520
<v Speaker 1>no so fast.

0:50:38.200 --> 0:50:40.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but you know, I separate.

0:50:40.600 --> 0:50:44.000
<v Speaker 3>It is a safe place. It's a safer place than not,

0:50:44.600 --> 0:50:47.440
<v Speaker 3>you know, in my heart is times with Mandy, I

0:50:47.520 --> 0:50:51.279
<v Speaker 3>remember being so angry at her. We've definitely thought like

0:50:51.280 --> 0:50:53.960
<v Speaker 3>I can't do this anymore. Literally, I was like, why

0:50:54.080 --> 0:50:55.600
<v Speaker 3>I go? Fuck it? Where am I going to go?

0:50:55.760 --> 0:50:58.319
<v Speaker 3>Like all this goddamn money, where am I gonna Where?

0:50:58.320 --> 0:51:01.919
<v Speaker 3>Am I gonna go work for someone else? Fucking white dude? Like, No,

0:51:01.960 --> 0:51:03.360
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna make this money with her and figure it

0:51:03.360 --> 0:51:06.680
<v Speaker 3>the fuck out. Actually, it's interesting with our partnership. I

0:51:06.719 --> 0:51:11.160
<v Speaker 3>recently was at dinner with someone who asked me about

0:51:11.239 --> 0:51:14.400
<v Speaker 3>books and money spending and things like that, and I

0:51:14.480 --> 0:51:16.799
<v Speaker 3>was like, when you talked about integrity. I just thought

0:51:16.840 --> 0:51:20.359
<v Speaker 3>about it. Whether I'm angry with Maandy or not, I've

0:51:20.400 --> 0:51:22.600
<v Speaker 3>never thought she would like take money from the company

0:51:22.680 --> 0:51:24.680
<v Speaker 3>or something. Right with Alex and I were bestie, so

0:51:24.719 --> 0:51:26.879
<v Speaker 3>we're not going to fuck each other over. And they

0:51:26.880 --> 0:51:29.080
<v Speaker 3>were telling me about how someone been sneaking money out

0:51:29.320 --> 0:51:33.719
<v Speaker 3>of their partnership, and I never thought of the bad

0:51:33.800 --> 0:51:36.680
<v Speaker 3>side of what could happen for partnerships, only the good. Yeah,

0:51:36.680 --> 0:51:39.080
<v Speaker 3>But it's really because I do find strength in numbers,

0:51:40.280 --> 0:51:42.760
<v Speaker 3>and I think partnership just builds and builds and builds

0:51:42.760 --> 0:51:46.440
<v Speaker 3>your portfolio. I mean, I would rather have half of

0:51:46.520 --> 0:51:49.600
<v Speaker 3>ten things, you know what I mean, especially knowing that,

0:51:50.239 --> 0:51:51.920
<v Speaker 3>like there's so many times Alex has called me and

0:51:52.000 --> 0:51:54.799
<v Speaker 3>is like, yo, Neil Brennan is coming in and David

0:51:54.840 --> 0:51:57.719
<v Speaker 3>Lehiman coming in our studios US right, or maybe I'll

0:51:57.760 --> 0:51:59.160
<v Speaker 3>hit him up and I'll be like we're locked down

0:51:59.200 --> 0:52:01.120
<v Speaker 3>for a week. We got to do from Amazon. Like

0:52:01.160 --> 0:52:04.000
<v Speaker 3>it's always one or the other, and it really really helps,

0:52:04.000 --> 0:52:06.600
<v Speaker 3>because when you're trying to get all that different money,

0:52:06.880 --> 0:52:09.840
<v Speaker 3>you can't do all things. I don't believe in people

0:52:09.840 --> 0:52:12.120
<v Speaker 3>that are trying to have too much control over everything.

0:52:12.440 --> 0:52:14.319
<v Speaker 3>You know. That's that's when it gets really tough. That's

0:52:14.360 --> 0:52:16.319
<v Speaker 3>when you get burnt out. You've got to be able

0:52:16.320 --> 0:52:18.840
<v Speaker 3>to alleviate some of that. I'm real cheap and I

0:52:18.840 --> 0:52:20.680
<v Speaker 3>don't even be wanting to give money up to an assistant,

0:52:20.719 --> 0:52:22.480
<v Speaker 3>but I realize it helps make your life easier.

0:52:22.520 --> 0:52:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Have you have you considered bringing one on yet I

0:52:24.640 --> 0:52:27.120
<v Speaker 1>have one, as it has been helpful.

0:52:27.400 --> 0:52:30.120
<v Speaker 3>Well, our studio is so busy. She's now just the

0:52:30.120 --> 0:52:32.960
<v Speaker 3>studio manager of the two New York locations. But oh,

0:52:33.000 --> 0:52:35.880
<v Speaker 3>she was amazing, Like she literally helped me with my

0:52:35.880 --> 0:52:39.840
<v Speaker 3>grandmother's funeral, you know, like when you've got a good one.

0:52:40.200 --> 0:52:42.320
<v Speaker 3>But my sister is like a real nigga, Like she's

0:52:42.360 --> 0:52:47.239
<v Speaker 3>not like she's not, Oh she's so great. She'll call

0:52:47.280 --> 0:52:48.640
<v Speaker 3>me like these mother, Like she helped me with the

0:52:48.680 --> 0:52:50.840
<v Speaker 3>thing for the wheelchair for my dad today. Right, she

0:52:50.880 --> 0:52:52.480
<v Speaker 3>sent me a screenshot of an email she was like

0:52:52.480 --> 0:52:55.680
<v Speaker 3>these motherfucker's trying to play me bruh, and like it's

0:52:55.760 --> 0:52:57.799
<v Speaker 3>so funny because like you kind of do have to

0:52:57.840 --> 0:53:00.400
<v Speaker 3>work with someone that makes you feel comfortable. You know,

0:53:00.440 --> 0:53:01.960
<v Speaker 3>if she was too tidied up, I don't think I

0:53:01.960 --> 0:53:04.799
<v Speaker 3>can do it. Yeah, but like I love partnering and

0:53:04.880 --> 0:53:08.279
<v Speaker 3>working with people that make me feel like I'm at home. Yeah, yeah,

0:53:08.280 --> 0:53:11.080
<v Speaker 3>because when we face the world, there's a different person

0:53:11.120 --> 0:53:13.360
<v Speaker 3>across that, you know what I'm saying. So knowing that

0:53:13.400 --> 0:53:15.480
<v Speaker 3>we hire black and hire people that are a vibe

0:53:15.600 --> 0:53:18.560
<v Speaker 3>like yeah, it's just it's so great, yeah, I think.

0:53:19.880 --> 0:53:22.640
<v Speaker 1>But also finding someone that really is invested in your

0:53:22.719 --> 0:53:25.200
<v Speaker 1>vision and your long term goals. I know with my crew,

0:53:25.840 --> 0:53:29.200
<v Speaker 1>I love them, Like if I feel something's de routing,

0:53:29.280 --> 0:53:33.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, dinner, lunch, we're getting together. Let's get to

0:53:33.080 --> 0:53:34.719
<v Speaker 1>the table and find out what's going on. But we

0:53:34.880 --> 0:53:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I genuinely like love my crew.

0:53:37.680 --> 0:53:39.520
<v Speaker 3>Like everybody that works for me, I would want to

0:53:39.520 --> 0:53:42.400
<v Speaker 3>have a drink with them. Yeah. That to me, I

0:53:42.440 --> 0:53:44.839
<v Speaker 3>don't want to hire anybody that makes me like getting

0:53:44.880 --> 0:53:46.759
<v Speaker 3>my nerves and they're weird or like, I want to

0:53:46.760 --> 0:53:48.719
<v Speaker 3>know they're cool, whether they be nerdy as fuck, and

0:53:48.760 --> 0:53:51.000
<v Speaker 3>maybe we don't share those hobbies, like there has to

0:53:51.040 --> 0:53:53.919
<v Speaker 3>be some connection there or I won't maybe care as much.

0:53:54.120 --> 0:53:56.480
<v Speaker 3>And I think my thing to being a good boss

0:53:56.600 --> 0:53:59.600
<v Speaker 3>is giving a fuck yeah, you know, writing down everyone's birthdays,

0:53:59.600 --> 0:54:01.800
<v Speaker 3>making sure I get them a gift, sending them text

0:54:01.800 --> 0:54:04.359
<v Speaker 3>telling them I appreciate them. I also don't say people

0:54:04.440 --> 0:54:07.280
<v Speaker 3>work for me. Like if I'm in front of someone,

0:54:08.040 --> 0:54:09.200
<v Speaker 3>I feel like that's.

0:54:09.120 --> 0:54:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Do you do? You call them like your team? How

0:54:11.080 --> 0:54:11.839
<v Speaker 2>do you reference them?

0:54:11.920 --> 0:54:13.360
<v Speaker 3>I'd be like, I say we work together.

0:54:13.520 --> 0:54:15.239
<v Speaker 2>If someone wants to know, oh, I like that.

0:54:15.880 --> 0:54:17.360
<v Speaker 3>Even if they walk in the studio and they know

0:54:17.400 --> 0:54:18.759
<v Speaker 3>on the owner, I'd be like, this is Danny, he

0:54:18.800 --> 0:54:22.359
<v Speaker 3>works with us, or like that just makes me more comfortable. Yeah,

0:54:22.400 --> 0:54:26.359
<v Speaker 3>I find a lot of condescendingness and when people kind

0:54:26.360 --> 0:54:28.319
<v Speaker 3>of just be like they work for me. Yeah.

0:54:28.320 --> 0:54:30.439
<v Speaker 1>I was at an event the other day and someone said,

0:54:30.480 --> 0:54:34.719
<v Speaker 1>just so you know, I'm her boss, and I was like, yeah,

0:54:34.760 --> 0:54:36.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you had to say that. I

0:54:36.120 --> 0:54:38.040
<v Speaker 1>don't even know the point of saying it. But I

0:54:38.080 --> 0:54:42.799
<v Speaker 1>think mainly in corporate and maybe not very small smaller well,

0:54:42.800 --> 0:54:44.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to say an entrepreneurs. I don't know,

0:54:44.920 --> 0:54:47.239
<v Speaker 1>but I do see. I guess if you're not at

0:54:47.280 --> 0:54:49.799
<v Speaker 1>the higher level, you see that more because I don't

0:54:49.800 --> 0:54:51.840
<v Speaker 1>even think the executives be like I'm the boss.

0:54:52.200 --> 0:54:55.000
<v Speaker 3>No, but like look at Connell from Our Heart, Yeah,

0:54:55.160 --> 0:54:57.960
<v Speaker 3>he was hugging everybody and chilling I'm like, what the

0:54:58.160 --> 0:55:00.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, Yeah, yeah, yeah, But you know that's

0:55:00.640 --> 0:55:02.920
<v Speaker 3>the thing too. I feel like there's this middle of

0:55:02.960 --> 0:55:04.680
<v Speaker 3>success when you try to prove yourself. I can only

0:55:04.719 --> 0:55:07.000
<v Speaker 3>relate to this. When I was kind of getting some

0:55:07.120 --> 0:55:09.640
<v Speaker 3>decent money, I wanted to wear Lee batons. I wanted

0:55:09.640 --> 0:55:12.560
<v Speaker 3>to wear my fucking one Louis buiton bag everywhere. I

0:55:12.640 --> 0:55:13.880
<v Speaker 3>needed to throw it in your face.

0:55:14.000 --> 0:55:14.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:55:14.400 --> 0:55:16.480
<v Speaker 3>Now I'm kind of like, you know what I mean, Like,

0:55:16.480 --> 0:55:16.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:55:17.080 --> 0:55:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Well that's how I feel about Montessori School right now.

0:55:19.560 --> 0:55:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Every time I see someone, I'm like, I pay.

0:55:21.360 --> 0:55:23.399
<v Speaker 2>Two thousand dollars a month for my one year old

0:55:23.440 --> 0:55:26.719
<v Speaker 2>to go to school. I should just have it as

0:55:26.760 --> 0:55:27.839
<v Speaker 2>a billboard at this point.

0:55:27.920 --> 0:55:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh bro, I feel like I'm luxury and that's really

0:55:31.080 --> 0:55:32.680
<v Speaker 1>probably a regular person thing.

0:55:32.760 --> 0:55:34.799
<v Speaker 2>But I'm like, now that's a lot.

0:55:36.440 --> 0:55:37.879
<v Speaker 3>That's better than they care, you.

0:55:37.800 --> 0:55:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Know, I literally, but I brag about it, like and

0:55:41.520 --> 0:55:43.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty I saw some comedian talk about like how

0:55:43.960 --> 0:55:46.640
<v Speaker 1>when black people brag when they're rich, Asian people brag

0:55:46.719 --> 0:55:48.600
<v Speaker 1>wh they're rich, and how white people brag when they're rich,

0:55:48.840 --> 0:55:51.080
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, yeah, I'm definitely the black person

0:55:51.120 --> 0:55:52.280
<v Speaker 1>that was like, I pay two games.

0:55:53.400 --> 0:55:56.200
<v Speaker 3>I try to find ways in a point where I'm

0:55:56.200 --> 0:55:59.960
<v Speaker 3>feeling a little inferior. Yeah, sometimes people you never know

0:56:00.040 --> 0:56:02.560
<v Speaker 3>they making my like it's I can't explain it, but

0:56:02.600 --> 0:56:04.360
<v Speaker 3>there's moments where people will make you feel like you

0:56:04.360 --> 0:56:06.560
<v Speaker 3>don't belong in the room there. Yeah. Yeah, that's when

0:56:06.600 --> 0:56:09.600
<v Speaker 3>I might do a little bit of really. Oh yeah,

0:56:09.760 --> 0:56:13.279
<v Speaker 3>I'm trying to think. The last time I haven't I

0:56:13.320 --> 0:56:15.080
<v Speaker 3>had this story. I told him horrible. It's on our

0:56:15.080 --> 0:56:18.840
<v Speaker 3>Patreon where I came back from Paris and I was

0:56:18.880 --> 0:56:21.560
<v Speaker 3>hanging in this Beyonce and jay Z party. It was

0:56:21.680 --> 0:56:23.920
<v Speaker 3>very small, like thirty people, and after that you couldn't

0:56:23.920 --> 0:56:25.480
<v Speaker 3>tell me shit. It was me and alex I was like,

0:56:25.600 --> 0:56:28.759
<v Speaker 3>fuck you bitch, and Mionce with like, you know, in

0:56:28.760 --> 0:56:32.040
<v Speaker 3>the air together. So I just kept finding ways to

0:56:32.040 --> 0:56:34.360
<v Speaker 3>bring it up. So we went to like some Spotify

0:56:34.400 --> 0:56:36.800
<v Speaker 3>dinner that week, and everybody's just like, oh, horrible decisions.

0:56:36.800 --> 0:56:39.680
<v Speaker 3>Never heard of it. Yes, actually I've been to France,

0:56:40.120 --> 0:56:44.960
<v Speaker 3>not that you asked, was there whatever, but like I'd

0:56:44.960 --> 0:56:46.520
<v Speaker 3>be trying to figure out a way, but I don't know.

0:56:46.600 --> 0:56:48.920
<v Speaker 3>And I think that's kind of when you do have

0:56:50.120 --> 0:56:51.759
<v Speaker 3>and I know that I came from something, so I

0:56:51.800 --> 0:56:53.359
<v Speaker 3>just can't say it came from nothing. But like when

0:56:53.360 --> 0:56:55.239
<v Speaker 3>you had that struggle, you want to know. You want

0:56:55.239 --> 0:56:57.160
<v Speaker 3>people to know I belong here too, Yeah, because I

0:56:57.160 --> 0:56:59.640
<v Speaker 3>have a lot of hell of privileged people that I

0:56:59.719 --> 0:57:02.520
<v Speaker 3>know that don't really have that that driver or the

0:57:02.880 --> 0:57:03.760
<v Speaker 3>that that.

0:57:05.320 --> 0:57:07.880
<v Speaker 2>They're the backstory, they don't need to.

0:57:09.200 --> 0:57:12.520
<v Speaker 3>Like I hang with this really rich girl sometimes when

0:57:12.520 --> 0:57:15.319
<v Speaker 3>I'm in La, like grew up rich. I think our

0:57:15.360 --> 0:57:20.120
<v Speaker 3>family's got a fucking castle somewhere. And I never really

0:57:20.760 --> 0:57:23.280
<v Speaker 3>see her tell you anything about her life because she

0:57:23.400 --> 0:57:26.840
<v Speaker 3>realizes it's so it's not part of her story. Yeah,

0:57:26.960 --> 0:57:29.800
<v Speaker 3>like everything she's experienced isn't exciting. Like when I told

0:57:29.840 --> 0:57:32.720
<v Speaker 3>her about the Beyonce and jay Z thing, She's like,

0:57:32.720 --> 0:57:35.840
<v Speaker 3>oh yeah. I'm like, well you met them before. She's like, yeah,

0:57:35.840 --> 0:57:37.360
<v Speaker 3>well I used to hang with the Arnall's when I

0:57:37.400 --> 0:57:42.360
<v Speaker 3>was a kid who own LVMA. That's hilarious And I'm like, okay,

0:57:42.440 --> 0:57:46.560
<v Speaker 3>it's to know a bitch, But like you know, so,

0:57:46.640 --> 0:57:48.400
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, oh, I wonder if it kind of shows

0:57:48.440 --> 0:57:50.960
<v Speaker 3>that you don't really have much. But what I appreciate

0:57:51.080 --> 0:57:52.880
<v Speaker 3>is like people that can enjoy with you like. The

0:57:52.880 --> 0:57:55.120
<v Speaker 3>first person I called after the Beyonce and jay Z

0:57:55.240 --> 0:57:57.600
<v Speaker 3>night was Charlottmgne cover the bed with his wife, who

0:57:57.600 --> 0:57:59.560
<v Speaker 3>was eleven thirty at night. Me and Alex are drunk

0:57:59.560 --> 0:58:02.720
<v Speaker 3>in the street. I'm like, oh, I tell somebody, And

0:58:02.760 --> 0:58:04.920
<v Speaker 3>he was so excited and laughing and he's like, y'all

0:58:04.960 --> 0:58:07.360
<v Speaker 3>in now. I'm like, brouh. The next time I see them,

0:58:07.360 --> 0:58:11.160
<v Speaker 3>think they put it over the bitch for Paris and

0:58:11.200 --> 0:58:13.960
<v Speaker 3>it's just this cool, exciting milestone. But maybe I will

0:58:13.960 --> 0:58:15.600
<v Speaker 3>get to the place where it doesn't matter anymore.

0:58:15.600 --> 0:58:20.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, hope not no, no, no no. So

0:58:20.600 --> 0:58:24.800
<v Speaker 1>now that you've traveled the world, you owned companies, you're

0:58:24.840 --> 0:58:29.640
<v Speaker 1>flying your family out, what advice would you give to someone.

0:58:31.400 --> 0:58:34.040
<v Speaker 2>That would even just in my shoes? You know?

0:58:34.080 --> 0:58:37.160
<v Speaker 1>What advice would you give to someone that's playing hasn't

0:58:37.160 --> 0:58:40.040
<v Speaker 1>fully taken off the ground yet and they've been hovering

0:58:40.120 --> 0:58:41.040
<v Speaker 1>for a long time.

0:58:41.240 --> 0:58:44.520
<v Speaker 3>I would say, thinking bigger than the biggest thing you're

0:58:44.560 --> 0:58:49.240
<v Speaker 3>thinking of. I think that we sell ourselves short a lot.

0:58:49.520 --> 0:58:52.600
<v Speaker 3>Whether it be I don't know. This is just made

0:58:52.600 --> 0:58:56.040
<v Speaker 3>me thinking right. Eating While Broke is currently a podcast,

0:58:56.040 --> 0:58:58.200
<v Speaker 3>it seems like next up is TV show that seems

0:58:58.200 --> 0:58:59.040
<v Speaker 3>like what that is? Right?

0:58:59.680 --> 0:59:02.479
<v Speaker 1>But I also want to do touring, which eighty five

0:59:02.600 --> 0:59:05.080
<v Speaker 1>South has been like just do it, but Dolly's like

0:59:05.160 --> 0:59:08.360
<v Speaker 1>hell no, and eighty five for South is like do

0:59:08.560 --> 0:59:09.160
<v Speaker 1>that shit?

0:59:09.680 --> 0:59:10.800
<v Speaker 3>Why does Dolly say now.

0:59:12.560 --> 0:59:14.440
<v Speaker 2>She thinks I need to spend more time growing my

0:59:14.520 --> 0:59:19.080
<v Speaker 2>audience like baby steps and then but I low key

0:59:19.240 --> 0:59:22.600
<v Speaker 2>secretly want to do ice cube in LA, I would.

0:59:22.320 --> 0:59:25.800
<v Speaker 3>Tell you for this piece of advice, then I would say,

0:59:25.840 --> 0:59:28.000
<v Speaker 3>you do it in the middle. You do one show.

0:59:28.760 --> 0:59:30.840
<v Speaker 3>You do one show in your hometown or where your

0:59:30.880 --> 0:59:33.640
<v Speaker 3>largest base of audience is, and that's LA, right, I'm assuming. Yeah,

0:59:33.680 --> 0:59:35.800
<v Speaker 3>So it's like you do your LA show. You don't tour,

0:59:36.160 --> 0:59:38.280
<v Speaker 3>You do your LA show. You practice, you get your

0:59:38.320 --> 0:59:40.480
<v Speaker 3>biggest fan based there, you already have all your friends come.

0:59:40.600 --> 0:59:42.760
<v Speaker 3>It's probably where all the talent you know is. So

0:59:42.920 --> 0:59:45.840
<v Speaker 3>you do it right there in LA. After you do that,

0:59:46.600 --> 0:59:49.360
<v Speaker 3>then you kind of get your feet wet or the

0:59:49.480 --> 0:59:54.200
<v Speaker 3>space is semi big. Make a Patreon or invite your

0:59:54.240 --> 0:59:58.880
<v Speaker 3>top fans. Mit fifteen fans really and write fifteen fans,

0:59:59.040 --> 1:00:02.360
<v Speaker 3>have them sit and wid laugh with you. Uh, maybe

1:00:02.400 --> 1:00:04.760
<v Speaker 3>put the ingredients out there and be like this is

1:00:04.800 --> 1:00:06.800
<v Speaker 3>what I got, y'all gonna help me make this meal?

1:00:06.840 --> 1:00:08.920
<v Speaker 3>Maybe they just shout at you and they share stories

1:00:08.960 --> 1:00:09.160
<v Speaker 3>with you.

1:00:09.680 --> 1:00:12.800
<v Speaker 1>When you guys did your Patreon, what were you what

1:00:12.840 --> 1:00:15.120
<v Speaker 1>was your first Like, did you even think you would

1:00:15.160 --> 1:00:16.720
<v Speaker 1>make money when you first did the patreon?

1:00:16.960 --> 1:00:20.120
<v Speaker 3>No, we make way too much on Patreon now. I

1:00:20.120 --> 1:00:23.880
<v Speaker 3>mean I'm sure like there, you know, there's patreons bigger

1:00:23.880 --> 1:00:25.320
<v Speaker 3>than me. But like we did it before. I think

1:00:25.320 --> 1:00:27.360
<v Speaker 3>we were one of the first black popular podcasts that

1:00:27.400 --> 1:00:29.800
<v Speaker 3>we know on there. Like we had our first year

1:00:29.840 --> 1:00:33.400
<v Speaker 3>of year seven, I mean the first year of your seven,

1:00:33.560 --> 1:00:35.080
<v Speaker 3>and we only did it to make more money for

1:00:35.120 --> 1:00:37.120
<v Speaker 3>the studio. Mandy and I were like, this shit costing

1:00:37.200 --> 1:00:39.360
<v Speaker 3>too much. We ain't making no money. A friend of

1:00:39.400 --> 1:00:41.440
<v Speaker 3>mine was like, have you heard of l trapo trap

1:00:41.480 --> 1:00:43.680
<v Speaker 3>House something like that, It's like a white podcast. I

1:00:43.720 --> 1:00:45.800
<v Speaker 3>was like no, He's like, they make like ninety round Patreon.

1:00:46.560 --> 1:00:48.720
<v Speaker 2>You should do You guys were like, dude, du what's

1:00:48.760 --> 1:00:49.600
<v Speaker 2>that right?

1:00:49.960 --> 1:00:51.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean, shit, we don't make ninety, but we do

1:00:51.640 --> 1:00:52.160
<v Speaker 3>make twenty.

1:00:52.400 --> 1:00:54.360
<v Speaker 2>Get the hang out on Patreon mm hm.

1:00:54.400 --> 1:00:59.040
<v Speaker 3>Get the honest though our Patreon, Like we started a

1:00:59.120 --> 1:01:02.080
<v Speaker 3>high very early of people that really resonated with Mandy

1:01:02.120 --> 1:01:04.960
<v Speaker 3>and I because we were corporate girls talking about sex

1:01:04.960 --> 1:01:06.600
<v Speaker 3>and it was kind of the life that if you

1:01:06.640 --> 1:01:08.280
<v Speaker 3>didn't live it, you'd want to live it, or you

1:01:08.280 --> 1:01:11.000
<v Speaker 3>could see yourself living it like host stories while like

1:01:11.360 --> 1:01:14.000
<v Speaker 3>being overdraft and are you know, being at your desk whatever.

1:01:14.520 --> 1:01:16.520
<v Speaker 3>So we made Patreon. It was to get extra money

1:01:16.520 --> 1:01:19.880
<v Speaker 3>for filming. I remember a thousand dollars a month feeling perfect.

1:01:20.040 --> 1:01:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Hell, yeah that's not I know that sounds small.

1:01:23.720 --> 1:01:28.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So when it got higher, Mandy and I just

1:01:28.480 --> 1:01:31.840
<v Speaker 3>started spelling more of our personal lives on Patreon, and

1:01:31.880 --> 1:01:34.280
<v Speaker 3>it became like we were just talking to fans instead

1:01:34.280 --> 1:01:37.280
<v Speaker 3>of like doing a show. You know, like we have

1:01:37.360 --> 1:01:40.200
<v Speaker 3>so so many guests now that people that really fucked

1:01:40.240 --> 1:01:44.040
<v Speaker 3>with Mandy and Wheezy they want Patreon. Like a lot

1:01:44.120 --> 1:01:47.440
<v Speaker 3>of people enjoy those episodes more. I love like a

1:01:47.440 --> 1:01:50.000
<v Speaker 3>better looking set, but I get it, Mandy and I'd

1:01:50.040 --> 1:01:52.080
<v Speaker 3>be on zoom, I'd be hungover shit. I think I

1:01:52.080 --> 1:01:54.400
<v Speaker 3>was still mollied out on one episode. I was like,

1:01:54.400 --> 1:01:58.000
<v Speaker 3>oh my god, you guys didn't save anyway, Like people

1:01:58.080 --> 1:02:00.400
<v Speaker 3>like that shit when you're very raw, and so we

1:02:00.480 --> 1:02:03.040
<v Speaker 3>offer that. So it's something different. But yeah, I wouldn't

1:02:03.080 --> 1:02:06.439
<v Speaker 3>write your closest fans if it's not Patreon right now,

1:02:06.760 --> 1:02:08.640
<v Speaker 3>figure out where you talk to them the most, have

1:02:08.680 --> 1:02:10.040
<v Speaker 3>them come and watch. Well.

1:02:10.080 --> 1:02:13.040
<v Speaker 1>I think this season is the most I've seen fans

1:02:13.040 --> 1:02:15.600
<v Speaker 1>reach out, which, by the way, I'm absolutely shocked. I'll

1:02:15.600 --> 1:02:18.479

<v Speaker 1>I look at y'all, and I'll be like, take notes.

1:03:00.600 --> 1:03:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Change when we're.

1:03:03.200 --> 1:03:06.320
<v Speaker 3>In line to them, right, Like I remember when call

1:03:06.400 --> 1:03:09.040
<v Speaker 3>her Daddy made the sixty thousand dollars DE sixty million,

1:03:10.400 --> 1:03:13.439
<v Speaker 3>right and I was like, oh my god, I'll never

1:03:13.480 --> 1:03:15.400
<v Speaker 3>get me. I was saying ship like that. I don't

1:03:15.440 --> 1:03:18.360
<v Speaker 3>have that. I'm like this podcast makes how much?

1:03:18.640 --> 1:03:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Like why am I talking like this?

1:03:20.440 --> 1:03:23.000
<v Speaker 3>You know? And we really have to pour into ourselves

1:03:23.040 --> 1:03:26.080
<v Speaker 3>better because we always are looking at something else. I

1:03:26.200 --> 1:03:29.840
<v Speaker 3>do it with my body doing my hair. Shit, I

1:03:29.880 --> 1:03:31.400
<v Speaker 3>was almost like, oh my god, my hair is not

1:03:31.480 --> 1:03:33.960
<v Speaker 3>rain different. The got my hair, like thinking about all

1:03:34.000 --> 1:03:36.600
<v Speaker 3>this little ship that doesn't fucking matter, and it's like

1:03:37.160 --> 1:03:39.280
<v Speaker 3>we need to really learn how to be happy with

1:03:39.520 --> 1:03:54.600
<v Speaker 3>ourselves because like I think social media has bucked me up.

1:03:56.360 --> 1:03:59.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm getting way better at it, but like body, hair,

1:04:00.520 --> 1:04:04.040
<v Speaker 3>clothes and success, they're all the things I see on

1:04:04.080 --> 1:04:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Instagram and think I'm not doing well enough with h

1:04:06.560 --> 1:04:09.400
<v Speaker 3>and this is fucked up. But it did happen to me.

1:04:10.040 --> 1:04:13.000
<v Speaker 3>I went to solid Core, which is this like plate's

1:04:13.120 --> 1:04:16.600
<v Speaker 3>ish cool thing to do. It's in La Chicago, New York,

1:04:16.640 --> 1:04:19.800
<v Speaker 3>Big Cities, Atlanta, and there's a girl on Instagram I

1:04:19.800 --> 1:04:21.960
<v Speaker 3>follow that. I always thought she was like so fucking

1:04:22.000 --> 1:04:24.720
<v Speaker 3>insanely hot. When I was in the workout, she was

1:04:24.800 --> 1:04:26.680
<v Speaker 3>right next to me and I recognized her halfway through.

1:04:27.000 --> 1:04:30.080
<v Speaker 3>She was really struggling, and it's not like it's something

1:04:30.120 --> 1:04:31.960
<v Speaker 3>to make fun of. You're already working out. But I

1:04:32.000 --> 1:04:34.120
<v Speaker 3>got in the car and I thought, oh my god,

1:04:34.120 --> 1:04:36.360
<v Speaker 3>I have I'm stronger than I thought. I was right.

1:04:36.440 --> 1:04:38.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm looking at this girl all the time on my timeline,

1:04:38.880 --> 1:04:40.440
<v Speaker 3>thinking she's the baddest bitch in the world. And I

1:04:40.920 --> 1:04:42.600
<v Speaker 3>had something like she even said to me. I was like,

1:04:42.680 --> 1:04:44.880
<v Speaker 3>damn bitch, she was getting it right. We don't know

1:04:44.920 --> 1:04:46.960
<v Speaker 3>each other, and I was like, wow, there's something we

1:04:47.040 --> 1:04:49.840
<v Speaker 3>all have that someone else doesn't. So when you're looking

1:04:49.880 --> 1:04:53.400
<v Speaker 3>and you're thinking that, it's not shit me. I want

1:04:53.480 --> 1:04:57.400
<v Speaker 3>kids so bad. Really, yes, I would love to have kids,

1:04:57.400 --> 1:05:00.360
<v Speaker 3>like I would love to have over to you. Oh

1:05:00.400 --> 1:05:02.320
<v Speaker 3>my mom would love to watch over. My mom love

1:05:02.360 --> 1:05:03.280
<v Speaker 3>taking somebody's baby.

1:05:03.320 --> 1:05:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh really, Oh she's in LA.

1:05:04.880 --> 1:05:06.840
<v Speaker 1>That's perfect because I ain't got no family in I

1:05:06.920 --> 1:05:08.280
<v Speaker 1>pay every minute a well.

1:05:08.160 --> 1:05:10.160
<v Speaker 3>Well, my mom will act like it's an inconvenience, but

1:05:10.200 --> 1:05:12.280
<v Speaker 3>she can't wait to do it. Let me watch your baby,

1:05:13.240 --> 1:05:14.600
<v Speaker 3>Colleen called me, and now I've got to watch this

1:05:14.680 --> 1:05:16.439
<v Speaker 3>damn baby. Now'll get in the house, baby proud anyway,

1:05:16.480 --> 1:05:20.680
<v Speaker 3>I'll talk to you later. Like she loves taking somebody's

1:05:20.720 --> 1:05:23.440
<v Speaker 3>problems on her kids or anything, and like, yeah, but

1:05:23.440 --> 1:05:24.400
<v Speaker 3>I think about that. I think.

1:05:24.520 --> 1:05:24.600
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

1:05:24.960 --> 1:05:28.840
<v Speaker 3>I was at a friend's kids graduation, her daughter graduately

1:05:28.880 --> 1:05:31.800
<v Speaker 3>needs her, and I was like, like three people had

1:05:31.800 --> 1:05:33.640
<v Speaker 3>asked me for a picture when I was in the auditorium,

1:05:34.640 --> 1:05:37.240
<v Speaker 3>and I remember thinking like, I wonder if they think

1:05:37.280 --> 1:05:39.919
<v Speaker 3>I'm like living this cool ass like but somebody was like, damn,

1:05:39.920 --> 1:05:41.800
<v Speaker 3>you came from LA to be here. Someone said that

1:05:41.840 --> 1:05:43.760
<v Speaker 3>to me, and I was like, when I could like

1:05:44.080 --> 1:05:45.680
<v Speaker 3>die to be one of the parents in the front.

1:05:45.960 --> 1:05:49.040
<v Speaker 3>Oh wow, But you never know, right, Like there's always

1:05:49.080 --> 1:05:51.560
<v Speaker 3>something we all want. I think we all need that

1:05:51.600 --> 1:05:53.520
<v Speaker 3>little drama in our lives to keep going.

1:05:53.760 --> 1:05:56.080
<v Speaker 1>You think so oh like the when you say drama,

1:05:56.160 --> 1:05:57.600
<v Speaker 1>like the need to want something more?

1:05:58.440 --> 1:06:00.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, how are we going to be an autopilot if

1:06:00.840 --> 1:06:02.320
<v Speaker 3>we have all we want? Like what do you want?

1:06:02.880 --> 1:06:03.000
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

1:06:03.120 --> 1:06:04.120
<v Speaker 2>I want this guy's limit.

1:06:04.240 --> 1:06:06.080
<v Speaker 1>It's funny though, because I used to always want like

1:06:06.160 --> 1:06:08.040
<v Speaker 1>the marriage and the baby, because I always felt like

1:06:08.080 --> 1:06:10.640
<v Speaker 1>I was good at business and then I just sucked

1:06:10.640 --> 1:06:13.800
<v Speaker 1>at personal. But now that I experienced marriage and the baby,

1:06:13.960 --> 1:06:16.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I think I'm gonna stay in my business

1:06:16.840 --> 1:06:18.880
<v Speaker 1>life because I suck at it. It's just like, yo,

1:06:18.960 --> 1:06:20.680
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I have to chop it up to Like,

1:06:20.960 --> 1:06:23.400
<v Speaker 1>it's just not my forte. I don't know why I

1:06:23.440 --> 1:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>can't master my personal but I could.

1:06:25.720 --> 1:06:28.320
<v Speaker 3>It's tough. We all can't because it's not something you

1:06:28.360 --> 1:06:29.080
<v Speaker 3>can control.

1:06:29.400 --> 1:06:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, maybe that's it because I feel like in business,

1:06:32.520 --> 1:06:34.560
<v Speaker 1>like I will pivot the fuck if it's not working,

1:06:34.720 --> 1:06:39.200
<v Speaker 1>pivot again, pivot again. But then in my personal I'd

1:06:39.200 --> 1:06:41.360
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, you went left. I don't even know

1:06:41.400 --> 1:06:41.919
<v Speaker 1>what to say.

1:06:42.360 --> 1:06:45.520
<v Speaker 3>It's tough. Yeah, money we can control, Like I feel

1:06:45.560 --> 1:06:47.120
<v Speaker 3>like I can make a million dollars easier than I

1:06:47.120 --> 1:06:49.160
<v Speaker 3>can find a good person to date. I mean, it's

1:06:49.200 --> 1:06:51.920
<v Speaker 3>fucked up to say that, but I really do believe that.

1:06:51.960 --> 1:06:54.840
<v Speaker 3>I feel like when it's things you can control, like

1:06:55.200 --> 1:06:57.880
<v Speaker 3>you can't control money. Let's say, like right, like there's

1:06:57.880 --> 1:06:59.680
<v Speaker 3>people out there that are working hard as fucking or

1:06:59.720 --> 1:07:02.840
<v Speaker 3>not getting there, but like you could possibly take up

1:07:02.840 --> 1:07:05.320
<v Speaker 3>another hustle to find somewhere money. Yeah, but I was

1:07:05.360 --> 1:07:08.640
<v Speaker 3>taking pictures out of Oo pizzeria on the side because

1:07:08.640 --> 1:07:10.920
<v Speaker 3>they would give me one hundred dollars a night, okay

1:07:10.960 --> 1:07:13.640
<v Speaker 3>for five hours, and I would just take pictures pictures,

1:07:13.680 --> 1:07:15.120
<v Speaker 3>and I would flip them a little bit. You know

1:07:15.160 --> 1:07:16.920
<v Speaker 3>what I'm saying, The pictures of fifteen, but i'd tell

1:07:16.920 --> 1:07:21.160
<v Speaker 3>people with twenty Yeah, yeah, that's like finding that hustle.

1:07:21.160 --> 1:07:22.960
<v Speaker 3>I was on Craigslist looking for gig jobs. That was

1:07:23.000 --> 1:07:24.720
<v Speaker 3>a caddy girl one day.

1:07:24.960 --> 1:07:28.040
<v Speaker 2>Like I told you that, But that's what I'm saying. Like,

1:07:28.560 --> 1:07:30.800
<v Speaker 2>do you think now do you think entrepreneurs are like

1:07:30.960 --> 1:07:33.160
<v Speaker 2>born out the womb or do you think they could

1:07:33.200 --> 1:07:35.360
<v Speaker 2>go to college and then become an entrepreneur.

1:07:35.920 --> 1:07:39.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't think entrepreneurs are for everyone, Yeah, because I

1:07:39.720 --> 1:07:45.760
<v Speaker 3>think it's too exhausting. Yeah, Like I think working a

1:07:45.880 --> 1:07:47.920
<v Speaker 3>nine to five, I think the goal for me, before

1:07:48.000 --> 1:07:50.960
<v Speaker 3>realizing I wanted to be an entrepreneur, I wanted to

1:07:51.040 --> 1:07:53.240
<v Speaker 3>make two fifty at a.

1:07:53.160 --> 1:07:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Corporate t I'm still praying to hit that too fuch

1:07:55.120 --> 1:07:57.520
<v Speaker 2>at a corporate job. Oh, at a corporate That to me.

1:07:57.480 --> 1:08:00.440
<v Speaker 3>Would have made me not do anything else. Because the

1:08:00.480 --> 1:08:02.880
<v Speaker 3>one seventy five was great. I was living a great

1:08:02.920 --> 1:08:05.600
<v Speaker 3>apartment and traveling, but my parents needed help, and I

1:08:05.640 --> 1:08:07.240
<v Speaker 3>was like, oh, I need more money for my parents.

1:08:07.600 --> 1:08:09.720
<v Speaker 3>If I had two fifty, that's money I could have

1:08:09.800 --> 1:08:11.200
<v Speaker 3>to help them and if I want to have a kid,

1:08:11.240 --> 1:08:14.000
<v Speaker 3>I can live in this money. But mind you in

1:08:14.040 --> 1:08:16.920
<v Speaker 3>New York. Yeah yeah, like two fifty in another city

1:08:17.000 --> 1:08:17.880
<v Speaker 3>might be a million dollars.

1:08:18.000 --> 1:08:18.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1:08:18.439 --> 1:08:21.759
<v Speaker 3>My rent even then was twenty five d It's crazy. Yeah,

1:08:22.120 --> 1:08:25.560
<v Speaker 3>But I say all that to say nine to fivers

1:08:25.680 --> 1:08:27.880
<v Speaker 3>are making a lot more money than entrepreneurs. Yeah, you

1:08:27.920 --> 1:08:30.280
<v Speaker 3>know what I'm saying. Entrepreneurs are out here really struggling.

1:08:30.360 --> 1:08:32.400
<v Speaker 3>It's tough. But I think it's because some people are

1:08:32.479 --> 1:08:34.439
<v Speaker 3>chasing a dream that they think they should do when

1:08:34.439 --> 1:08:35.280
<v Speaker 3>really that's not it.

1:08:36.400 --> 1:08:39.639
<v Speaker 1>How would they identify the dream that is it though,

1:08:39.800 --> 1:08:41.320
<v Speaker 1>and from the dream that isn't.

1:08:41.800 --> 1:08:44.960
<v Speaker 3>I think one if it feels like a passion, are

1:08:45.000 --> 1:08:48.559
<v Speaker 3>you happy doing it? Like? Are you doing it because

1:08:48.600 --> 1:08:50.639
<v Speaker 3>you actually love this? Like? Why do you love making

1:08:50.720 --> 1:08:51.400
<v Speaker 3>eating while broke?

1:08:52.200 --> 1:08:56.080
<v Speaker 1>I just love great rags to riches stories, Like I

1:08:56.120 --> 1:08:58.040
<v Speaker 1>have some rich friends and they always tell me they

1:08:58.040 --> 1:09:00.479
<v Speaker 1>were like in jail somewhere or they were on a

1:09:00.479 --> 1:09:03.680
<v Speaker 1>ass somewhere, and I'm like, wait, you and you live

1:09:03.680 --> 1:09:06.479
<v Speaker 1>in the seven thousand square Foo mansion in La Oh,

1:09:06.680 --> 1:09:08.600
<v Speaker 1>tell me more. And I just love it, like I

1:09:08.600 --> 1:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>would hang out and I just love the stories. I'd

1:09:12.280 --> 1:09:13.559
<v Speaker 1>be like, okay, but you know.

1:09:13.800 --> 1:09:17.200
<v Speaker 3>And I would say then with your audience and feeling inspired.

1:09:17.320 --> 1:09:19.760
<v Speaker 1>But I was definitely lucky because I felt like the

1:09:19.800 --> 1:09:22.280
<v Speaker 1>friends that I have, like if I'm like, damn, this

1:09:22.360 --> 1:09:24.560
<v Speaker 1>bill was high, I'd be like, you wouldn't understand it,

1:09:24.640 --> 1:09:25.240
<v Speaker 1>be like try me.

1:09:25.280 --> 1:09:26.760
<v Speaker 2>I'd be like a thousand bucks to be like, Nope,

1:09:26.760 --> 1:09:27.439
<v Speaker 2>that bill's high.

1:09:27.520 --> 1:09:27.720
<v Speaker 3>You know.

1:09:28.600 --> 1:09:32.360
<v Speaker 2>I'd really and they'd be like, no, it's high, you know.

1:09:32.560 --> 1:09:35.080
<v Speaker 1>And so luckily I was fortunate to be with some

1:09:35.160 --> 1:09:37.040
<v Speaker 1>friends that really like that.

1:09:37.160 --> 1:09:39.040
<v Speaker 2>I felt like, damn, you're hanging out with me.

1:09:39.040 --> 1:09:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Like if you and I hung out, I would be

1:09:40.920 --> 1:09:43.960
<v Speaker 1>lowkey geeked just because you have a great personality, but

1:09:43.960 --> 1:09:45.880
<v Speaker 1>I would also be lowkey geeked because I'm like, I

1:09:46.000 --> 1:09:48.479
<v Speaker 1>look up to you, like I definitely admire you, you know.

1:09:48.479 --> 1:09:50.760
<v Speaker 3>I feel like that with people sometimes where I'm like,

1:09:51.880 --> 1:09:55.920
<v Speaker 3>are we like we're peers? Right? No matter if maybe

1:09:55.960 --> 1:09:58.080
<v Speaker 3>like maybe my podcast has been going on longer than yours,

1:09:58.120 --> 1:10:00.000
<v Speaker 3>you're like, oh, that's what I'm gonna get, Like it's

1:10:00.000 --> 1:10:01.160
<v Speaker 3>you appears.

1:10:00.800 --> 1:10:03.559
<v Speaker 1>Well you're more than just a pot Like in my eyes,

1:10:04.400 --> 1:10:07.080
<v Speaker 1>well you and Mandy accomplished was great, but you gotta

1:10:07.080 --> 1:10:10.320
<v Speaker 1>think you're a beautiful, attractive woman in the entertainment industry.

1:10:10.400 --> 1:10:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I have sidebar conversations all the time. I'll leave a meeting,

1:10:13.080 --> 1:10:14.800
<v Speaker 1>I'll be like, this person wants to fuck, and my

1:10:14.840 --> 1:10:16.400
<v Speaker 1>friends will be like, how do you know, and be like, Bro,

1:10:16.880 --> 1:10:18.680
<v Speaker 1>I've been in this game way too long. I can

1:10:18.720 --> 1:10:21.840
<v Speaker 1>tell by the questions the hints they want to fuck,

1:10:21.920 --> 1:10:24.960
<v Speaker 1>and then I gotta navigate that. So to be attractive woman. Okay,

1:10:25.439 --> 1:10:28.240
<v Speaker 1>then you're an entertainment then you're an entrepreneurs. Then you're

1:10:28.320 --> 1:10:30.920
<v Speaker 1>handling all this business. Then you're sale. When I hear sales,

1:10:30.960 --> 1:10:33.120
<v Speaker 1>nothing excites me, you know how you get when I

1:10:33.120 --> 1:10:34.960
<v Speaker 1>hear a girl could sell, I'll be like, oh, this

1:10:49.600 --> 1:10:51.760
<v Speaker 1>hang out in his house or whatever. He literally will

1:10:51.760 --> 1:10:53.760
<v Speaker 1>only hang out when we work out, which sucks because

1:10:53.840 --> 1:10:59.160
<v Speaker 1>his workouts are absolutely, terrifyingly terriblely hard workouts.

1:10:59.640 --> 1:11:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Were Like, if I want to have a talk a

1:11:01.040 --> 1:11:01.439

1:11:03.320 --> 1:11:05.839
<v Speaker 1>work out and it'll be the worst workout of the century,

1:11:05.920 --> 1:11:09.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, But I still look up to him, and

1:11:09.479 --> 1:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>I'll still be like geeked, Like yo, I could walk

1:11:11.840 --> 1:11:14.280
<v Speaker 1>into your house or borrow your house for the weekend,

1:11:14.400 --> 1:11:16.880
<v Speaker 1>and but I even though we're friends, I still look

1:11:16.960 --> 1:11:19.280
<v Speaker 1>up to you, and you're vulnerable. But they're the real

1:11:19.320 --> 1:11:24.120

1:11:23.880 --> 1:11:26.680
<v Speaker 3>And honestly sharing that to the world and then you

1:11:26.840 --> 1:11:30.280
<v Speaker 3>receiving that fan feedback and things like that, like having

1:11:30.360 --> 1:11:32.680
<v Speaker 3>the passion that making you feel good learning in the

1:11:32.680 --> 1:11:35.800
<v Speaker 3>middle of your job. That's how you know you keep going,

1:11:36.320 --> 1:11:38.880
<v Speaker 3>you know what I'm saying. But also, I think the

1:11:38.960 --> 1:11:42.799
<v Speaker 3>largest mistake entrepreneurs make is if they have a regular

1:11:42.840 --> 1:11:44.960
<v Speaker 3>job or a steady gig, they leave it for the

1:11:45.000 --> 1:11:49.000
<v Speaker 3>passion before the passion flourishes. Yeah, and I didn't do that,

1:11:49.080 --> 1:11:51.759
<v Speaker 3>Like I was working eighty hours a week, doing horrible

1:11:51.840 --> 1:11:54.840
<v Speaker 3>and you know, literally coming in with my suitcase to

1:11:54.880 --> 1:11:56.519
<v Speaker 3>the office, like, oh, I went to go see my parents,

1:11:56.520 --> 1:11:58.920
<v Speaker 3>But really, I had a fucking four hundred seat show

1:11:58.960 --> 1:12:01.320
<v Speaker 3>that we fill down and like that today is different.

1:12:01.320 --> 1:12:05.040
<v Speaker 3>Now it's double right and it feels great, but like, nah,

1:12:05.040 --> 1:12:09.400
<v Speaker 3>I had to do both. I think living in the

1:12:09.520 --> 1:12:14.559
<v Speaker 3>entertainment industry today is interesting because it could be anybody, right, Like,

1:12:14.760 --> 1:12:16.880
<v Speaker 3>influencers have really ruined fame?

1:12:17.760 --> 1:12:18.280
<v Speaker 2>You think so?

1:12:18.640 --> 1:12:21.719
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I guess I could see that. It's weird because

1:12:21.720 --> 1:12:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I see, like I feel like they're self made and

1:12:24.040 --> 1:12:25.720
<v Speaker 1>they work very hard, like when you look at the

1:12:25.720 --> 1:12:28.599
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes, they work hard. But I definitely will

1:12:28.640 --> 1:12:30.720
<v Speaker 1>say I don't know. I would like to hear your

1:12:30.720 --> 1:12:31.559
<v Speaker 1>perspective on it.

1:12:31.840 --> 1:12:39.600
<v Speaker 3>I think influencers ruined fame because not saying that they're talentless,

1:12:40.760 --> 1:12:43.920
<v Speaker 3>but content creation as a form of a talent. Like

1:12:45.160 --> 1:12:47.679
<v Speaker 3>if the Internet is gone, then where do you take

1:12:47.720 --> 1:12:49.720
<v Speaker 3>it and what do you do with it? You know,

1:12:49.760 --> 1:12:51.680
<v Speaker 3>I have a big influencer that reached out to me.

1:12:52.120 --> 1:12:54.200
<v Speaker 3>They're not going broke or anything like they're making like

1:12:54.479 --> 1:12:58.080
<v Speaker 3>maybe thirty fortieth posts, but they reached out to me

1:12:58.080 --> 1:13:00.479
<v Speaker 3>and we're like, I need you to have dinner with

1:13:00.520 --> 1:13:01.920
<v Speaker 3>me or some shit and influence me to do some

1:13:02.040 --> 1:13:05.040
<v Speaker 3>other shit. Because I realized this is like just what

1:13:05.080 --> 1:13:06.880
<v Speaker 3>if Instagram doesn't want me to do ads anymore? What

1:13:06.920 --> 1:13:10.360
<v Speaker 3>if Instagram stops advertisments for influencers, what if the hashtag

1:13:10.400 --> 1:13:12.680
<v Speaker 3>goes away? Like she was terrified and it was when

1:13:12.720 --> 1:13:15.080
<v Speaker 3>TikTok was about to get banned or something, and I

1:13:15.200 --> 1:13:17.680
<v Speaker 3>was like, damn. I'm like, I don't know half of

1:13:17.720 --> 1:13:20.800
<v Speaker 3>my nas year off of heigi ads. But she was right,

1:13:20.920 --> 1:13:23.599
<v Speaker 3>like I didn't do anything else. I've just been learning

1:13:23.600 --> 1:13:26.240
<v Speaker 3>this one skill, and that shit is tough because, like,

1:13:26.680 --> 1:13:28.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, I wouldn't want my kids to be

1:13:28.320 --> 1:13:31.760
<v Speaker 3>an influencer. I think it also inflates when I say

1:13:31.800 --> 1:13:35.240
<v Speaker 3>the ruined fame, like you have movie stars, actors, actresses,

1:13:35.240 --> 1:13:38.160
<v Speaker 3>and even podcasters make fame to me, like it's not real.

1:13:38.800 --> 1:13:41.479
<v Speaker 1>Well, I've seen people too that will get like ten

1:13:41.520 --> 1:13:44.200
<v Speaker 1>thousand followers and they all already switch up. I'm like, yo,

1:13:44.240 --> 1:13:47.080
<v Speaker 1>if your bank account still read zero, who gives a

1:13:47.120 --> 1:13:48.200
<v Speaker 1>fuck about some likes?

1:13:48.280 --> 1:13:51.120
<v Speaker 3>But the same shit is weird because the likes and

1:13:51.160 --> 1:13:53.120
<v Speaker 3>all this stuff makes you think you're better than you

1:13:53.160 --> 1:13:56.960
<v Speaker 3>are when there's so many more of you, So you

1:13:57.000 --> 1:13:58.960
<v Speaker 3>really have to find a thing that makes you different.

1:13:59.120 --> 1:14:02.120
<v Speaker 3>Like honest, I follow so many girls that are just

1:14:02.200 --> 1:14:04.240
<v Speaker 3>hot and kind of look the same because of their

1:14:04.240 --> 1:14:06.360
<v Speaker 3>clothes or their workouts or whatever. I don't think I

1:14:06.400 --> 1:14:10.799
<v Speaker 3>know their names. Really. No. I remember sitting at Lucy

1:14:10.840 --> 1:14:12.479
<v Speaker 3>and it's my favorite restaurant New York. I always go

1:14:12.560 --> 1:14:14.800
<v Speaker 3>there in the East Village and I was looking at

1:14:14.800 --> 1:14:17.040
<v Speaker 3>this girl and I tapped her and I was like,

1:14:17.680 --> 1:14:19.160
<v Speaker 3>do I know you? Do we have a school together?

1:14:19.240 --> 1:14:22.240
<v Speaker 3>Genuinely didn't know. I feel like I know you, And

1:14:22.280 --> 1:14:25.840
<v Speaker 3>she was like, oh, I'm an influencer. I was like,

1:14:25.960 --> 1:14:28.400
<v Speaker 3>maybe I follow you. What's your name? Didn't ring a bell?

1:14:28.960 --> 1:14:30.479
<v Speaker 3>Looked at it and I was like, damn, I've been

1:14:30.479 --> 1:14:32.400
<v Speaker 3>following this bitter a minute, but that's it. You're not

1:14:32.439 --> 1:14:35.679
<v Speaker 3>even connecting to the content. Yeah, because it's just grid

1:14:35.800 --> 1:14:38.519
<v Speaker 3>post after grid post up or something something. That's why

1:14:38.600 --> 1:14:42.720
<v Speaker 3>people like just hilarious Drew Ski a Pretty V they

1:14:42.760 --> 1:14:45.559
<v Speaker 3>fucking stick out because we know what they're doing.

1:14:46.040 --> 1:14:49.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah and they yeah, but those are also like I know.

1:14:49.280 --> 1:14:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'll say for Pretty V because we had her aunt,

1:14:51.880 --> 1:14:53.160
<v Speaker 1>she's she's also hard.

1:14:53.520 --> 1:14:54.679
<v Speaker 2>She's like a hustler too.

1:14:56.280 --> 1:14:58.680
<v Speaker 1>I would say she's she's more of an entrepreneur than

1:14:58.680 --> 1:15:01.280
<v Speaker 1>an influencer, even though she started that way.

1:15:01.360 --> 1:15:03.400
<v Speaker 2>You know you could. I feel the same with like

1:15:03.479 --> 1:15:05.200
<v Speaker 2>be simone, but something.

1:15:04.880 --> 1:15:06.439
<v Speaker 3>That I have, something that they do.

1:15:06.520 --> 1:15:09.559
<v Speaker 1>But I will say I honestly say like and it

1:15:09.600 --> 1:15:12.439
<v Speaker 1>could be just me vibed, but I would say almost

1:15:12.560 --> 1:15:17.280
<v Speaker 1>ninety percent of my guests have true integrity. There's somewhere

1:15:17.320 --> 1:15:20.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll be like after interview reps, I'll be like, wow,

1:15:20.040 --> 1:15:24.040
<v Speaker 1>I called bullshit and I won't say who, but there

1:15:24.080 --> 1:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>was a couple episodes where my team I'll be like, damn,

1:15:26.320 --> 1:15:29.160
<v Speaker 1>that was a bullshit, meaning like they looked bigger than

1:15:29.200 --> 1:15:31.040
<v Speaker 1>what they were. And then when I got in, I

1:15:31.160 --> 1:15:33.080
<v Speaker 1>was like, you don't know your shit, you're a fake.

1:15:33.520 --> 1:15:35.120
<v Speaker 3>Maybe some people just get lucky.

1:15:35.400 --> 1:15:38.040
<v Speaker 1>They got lucky, or they didn't name drop like hey,

1:15:38.080 --> 1:15:40.360
<v Speaker 1>your baby mama helped you, or your mom helped you.

1:15:40.400 --> 1:15:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Why wouldn't you give them the credit that they deserved.

1:15:43.080 --> 1:15:45.919
<v Speaker 3>Strange when people don't credit those that helped along the way.

1:15:46.080 --> 1:15:47.719
<v Speaker 2>I think it's completely strange.

1:15:47.760 --> 1:15:48.519
<v Speaker 3>Do you know one of them?

1:15:48.920 --> 1:15:50.720
<v Speaker 1>By the way, if you're on my show and I

1:15:50.840 --> 1:15:53.479
<v Speaker 1>catch it, I won't say it in front of the guests,

1:15:53.479 --> 1:15:55.519
<v Speaker 1>but I will go me even the show raps, I'll

1:15:55.520 --> 1:15:58.679
<v Speaker 1>be like, I called bullshit. They left out somebody because

1:15:58.720 --> 1:16:01.640
<v Speaker 1>their story isn't adding up and I will literally you

1:16:01.640 --> 1:16:03.519
<v Speaker 1>could ask my crew, I will.

1:16:03.360 --> 1:16:07.600
<v Speaker 3>Be wait, it was mine, the sugar daddy.

1:16:07.080 --> 1:16:09.519
<v Speaker 2>Your story was as real as they get.

1:16:09.560 --> 1:16:12.120
<v Speaker 1>But you know, you know you could tell because they'll

1:16:12.120 --> 1:16:14.320
<v Speaker 1>be a missing gap. You know, they'll be like some

1:16:14.479 --> 1:16:16.280
<v Speaker 1>part of the story where you'd be like that that

1:16:16.360 --> 1:16:18.400
<v Speaker 1>doesn't line up, there's something missing there.

1:16:18.560 --> 1:16:21.320
<v Speaker 2>I can always tell because I like, well, you.

1:16:21.240 --> 1:16:23.800
<v Speaker 3>Know, sometimes the struggle isn't what people like to show,

1:16:23.880 --> 1:16:25.639
<v Speaker 3>right the highlight reels that they need.

1:16:25.520 --> 1:16:27.840
<v Speaker 2>To show the struggle on this show. On this show,

1:16:27.880 --> 1:16:31.559
<v Speaker 2>you gotta tell me to credit your wife.

1:16:31.840 --> 1:16:33.680
<v Speaker 3>If you're not giving other people their flower, it never

1:16:33.720 --> 1:16:37.080
<v Speaker 3>takes from you. I was gonna say to you, Charlott

1:16:37.120 --> 1:16:38.920
<v Speaker 3>MANE makes me do that more than anyone like. It

1:16:39.000 --> 1:16:41.679
<v Speaker 3>makes me thank my team so much. Like I've never

1:16:41.760 --> 1:16:45.320
<v Speaker 3>seen anyone be so gracious towards those around him, even

1:16:45.360 --> 1:16:47.920
<v Speaker 3>when I pay him a compliment, just no one else

1:16:47.960 --> 1:16:50.920
<v Speaker 3>around Damn you kill this shit man.

1:16:51.040 --> 1:16:55.559
<v Speaker 1>That was some So I'm like, oh, okay, I've never

1:16:55.600 --> 1:16:57.160
<v Speaker 1>really I've seen Charlomagye one time.

1:16:57.200 --> 1:16:59.040
<v Speaker 2>So I literally saw him, was like, thank you so

1:16:59.120 --> 1:17:00.200
<v Speaker 2>much for everything you do for me.

1:17:00.479 --> 1:17:03.559
<v Speaker 3>Have a good day. Wait, you just met him in Atlanta.

1:17:03.640 --> 1:17:05.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that was it, and that's all I said was

1:17:05.560 --> 1:17:06.240
<v Speaker 2>thank you.

1:17:06.280 --> 1:17:12.240
<v Speaker 3>What every Christian famous person like normal and authentic. And

1:17:13.040 --> 1:17:15.479
<v Speaker 3>I think I made a joke on a podcast and

1:17:15.479 --> 1:17:17.840
<v Speaker 3>I tested it once. I was like, man like, they

1:17:17.840 --> 1:17:21.320
<v Speaker 3>were like, who do you think is someone that you've

1:17:21.360 --> 1:17:23.799
<v Speaker 3>met that's a celebrity that you expected to be different?

1:17:24.360 --> 1:17:26.360
<v Speaker 3>I was like, Charlotte answers the phone every time. I

1:17:26.360 --> 1:17:28.920
<v Speaker 3>think it's very strange. Yeah, because you're so like he's

1:17:28.920 --> 1:17:31.680
<v Speaker 3>literally answered. I could hear him at the breakfast what's up?

1:17:31.680 --> 1:17:35.679
<v Speaker 3>He's monnies me, Like, just really wants to make sure

1:17:35.720 --> 1:17:38.080
<v Speaker 3>he's accessible to people that he cares about. And I

1:17:38.080 --> 1:17:41.559
<v Speaker 3>think that's what's inspired me to be a really good

1:17:42.280 --> 1:17:45.439
<v Speaker 3>leader and just all around good person when it comes

1:17:45.479 --> 1:17:48.200
<v Speaker 3>to people that have paved the way, because like, we

1:17:48.280 --> 1:17:51.639
<v Speaker 3>don't see that, we see a lot of I I I, yeah,

1:17:51.680 --> 1:17:52.120
<v Speaker 3>you know. Well.

1:17:52.160 --> 1:17:54.479
<v Speaker 1>Also, I think the cool thing about him is that

1:17:55.280 --> 1:17:58.599
<v Speaker 1>he has like all black woman team pretty much, and

1:17:58.640 --> 1:17:59.800
<v Speaker 1>he treats all those women great.

1:17:59.800 --> 1:18:02.760
<v Speaker 2>Because I worked for other people and with other people.

1:18:02.520 --> 1:18:04.960
<v Speaker 1>In the industry and it ain't like that it's more

1:18:04.960 --> 1:18:07.280
<v Speaker 1>of the boy's club. I see the boys getting blessed

1:18:07.280 --> 1:18:08.679
<v Speaker 1>and the woman getting dirty.

1:18:08.800 --> 1:18:12.280
<v Speaker 3>And Charlemagne is very much again an authentic person. Yeah,

1:18:12.320 --> 1:18:14.639
<v Speaker 3>Like I heard him on a I had a call

1:18:14.680 --> 1:18:19.040
<v Speaker 3>with him for something else, and the other person on

1:18:19.040 --> 1:18:22.280
<v Speaker 3>the other end of the call was very like, what's

1:18:22.320 --> 1:18:25.120
<v Speaker 3>the word I'm looking for, almost like a shell of

1:18:25.120 --> 1:18:27.440
<v Speaker 3>themselves trying to show you how great they are. Charlamagne

1:18:27.479 --> 1:18:31.400
<v Speaker 3>was in a T shirt in South Carolina, I think

1:18:31.840 --> 1:18:33.840
<v Speaker 3>visiting family, or maybe he was outside of his crib,

1:18:34.160 --> 1:18:35.759
<v Speaker 3>but he was like on a chair on a porch,

1:18:36.000 --> 1:18:38.360
<v Speaker 3>just looking like he was chilling, and everybody else is

1:18:38.400 --> 1:18:40.400
<v Speaker 3>suited up, and he's like, y'all are so lucky for

1:18:40.439 --> 1:18:41.760
<v Speaker 3>me to be on this call. Just I could tell

1:18:41.800 --> 1:18:44.160
<v Speaker 3>you that's what he's thinking. And he's so much of

1:18:44.240 --> 1:18:47.639
<v Speaker 3>himself and still giving you gems. And I was like, Wow,

1:18:48.040 --> 1:18:49.800
<v Speaker 3>he didn't even feel the need to like do it

1:18:49.880 --> 1:18:52.720
<v Speaker 3>up for some Hollywood people. Yeah, because he knows like this,

1:18:52.920 --> 1:18:56.680
<v Speaker 3>his brand is so raw, and I think we have

1:18:56.800 --> 1:19:00.160
<v Speaker 3>to be that way. We can't try to be this

1:19:00.200 --> 1:19:02.880
<v Speaker 3>person that we think other people would like, because they'll

1:19:02.920 --> 1:19:05.000
<v Speaker 3>smell it just like you do. You know what I'm saying.

1:19:05.000 --> 1:19:06.920
<v Speaker 3>People smell that all day every day. You could be

1:19:06.960 --> 1:19:09.160
<v Speaker 3>a casual listener that's in that YouTube that's like this

1:19:09.200 --> 1:19:09.920
<v Speaker 3>person's a liar.

1:19:10.040 --> 1:19:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, people clock it.

1:19:11.640 --> 1:19:13.719
<v Speaker 3>And for you to know that as someone that's bringing

1:19:13.720 --> 1:19:16.599
<v Speaker 3>these people in, like, I think that says a lot.

1:19:17.120 --> 1:19:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1:19:19.120 --> 1:19:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Eventually we'll get to the space where there's like

1:19:22.439 --> 1:19:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I can actually call bullshit on the mic. I'm not

1:19:25.160 --> 1:19:28.040
<v Speaker 1>there yet, I know, but there have been a couple

1:19:28.040 --> 1:19:28.679
<v Speaker 1>where I'm like.

1:19:29.120 --> 1:19:31.800
<v Speaker 3>Bull shit, what about you?

1:19:31.840 --> 1:19:35.559
<v Speaker 1>Being like, there's got to be a oh I go

1:19:35.680 --> 1:19:38.200
<v Speaker 1>in and you can tell because they won't answer the question,

1:19:38.439 --> 1:19:40.880
<v Speaker 1>And that's how I know it's bullshit. I'll be like, Okay,

1:19:40.920 --> 1:19:43.799
<v Speaker 1>you're just boying. I'll ask seven different ways. I'm like, Okay,

1:19:43.960 --> 1:19:45.760
<v Speaker 1>I call bullshit, but I won't say it on the

1:19:45.800 --> 1:19:47.200
<v Speaker 1>mic yet. I'm not there yet.

1:19:47.439 --> 1:19:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Plus I gotcha host, They're like, oh, like be there

1:19:51.880 --> 1:19:52.400
<v Speaker 3>for the moment.

1:19:52.760 --> 1:19:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1:19:53.120 --> 1:19:57.080
<v Speaker 1>And then also like there's the uncomfortable space, you know

1:19:57.240 --> 1:19:59.560
<v Speaker 1>with our shows, like we dig into the vulnerability a

1:19:59.560 --> 1:20:04.000
<v Speaker 1>little bit deep, and I like to say to everybody

1:20:04.080 --> 1:20:06.080
<v Speaker 1>it's a safe space. Like if I think there's something

1:20:06.120 --> 1:20:07.960
<v Speaker 1>that you're going to say on our show that I

1:20:07.960 --> 1:20:10.560
<v Speaker 1>think is going to ruin your career or cancel you do.

1:20:10.560 --> 1:20:12.839
<v Speaker 1>You don't even have to send your publicists or whoever

1:20:12.880 --> 1:20:14.880
<v Speaker 1>over to like, oh my god, Colleen or beg me,

1:20:15.360 --> 1:20:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna remove it just on game. I'm just you

1:20:17.800 --> 1:20:18.599
<v Speaker 1>shared your story.

1:20:18.800 --> 1:20:22.559
<v Speaker 3>I completely agree with you. I think that keeping those

1:20:22.560 --> 1:20:26.080
<v Speaker 3>moments like I've seen Megan James, I mean, I don't

1:20:26.120 --> 1:20:28.160
<v Speaker 3>want to talk too much shit. She's spent some money

1:20:28.160 --> 1:20:33.559
<v Speaker 3>about WTS Studio, but there's some clips where I'm like, WHOA, yeah,

1:20:33.960 --> 1:20:36.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, like I'm kind of surprised you invite someone

1:20:36.960 --> 1:20:38.640
<v Speaker 3>in your space to like do that.

1:20:38.960 --> 1:20:39.200
<v Speaker 5>M h.

1:20:39.760 --> 1:20:42.280
<v Speaker 3>And she's just sticking out of my mind right now.

1:20:42.320 --> 1:20:45.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm not saying she's like a terrible person, but it's

1:20:45.280 --> 1:20:50.639
<v Speaker 3>a it's a style interviewing that works for her. Maybe

1:20:50.640 --> 1:20:52.680
<v Speaker 3>she's on more streams than almost who knows, But like,

1:20:52.800 --> 1:20:54.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if I could do it.

1:20:54.200 --> 1:20:56.280
<v Speaker 1>That's how I feel about honestly, like Jason Lee, to

1:20:56.320 --> 1:20:57.880
<v Speaker 1>be honest, I feel like some of the stuff he'd

1:20:57.920 --> 1:20:59.320
<v Speaker 1>be doing, I'll be like, well maybe, And I have

1:20:59.320 --> 1:21:01.640
<v Speaker 1>this conversation my little brother all the time, and I'm

1:21:01.680 --> 1:21:04.200
<v Speaker 1>always like, ego, maybe maybe I should sell out, Like

1:21:04.240 --> 1:21:06.320
<v Speaker 1>because I look at such and such kind of like

1:21:06.360 --> 1:21:08.000
<v Speaker 1>how you look at social media, be like, look at

1:21:08.040 --> 1:21:11.720
<v Speaker 1>this person. It's like they're really honestly, like they don't

1:21:11.720 --> 1:21:14.040
<v Speaker 1>give a fuck about anybody's career, you know, and then

1:21:14.080 --> 1:21:15.680
<v Speaker 1>they Jason Lee.

1:21:15.600 --> 1:21:18.240
<v Speaker 3>At Charlemagne back in the day, I'm Magan James. I

1:21:18.280 --> 1:21:19.519
<v Speaker 3>think you know what you're getting when you go on

1:21:19.520 --> 1:21:24.040
<v Speaker 3>the door. Yeah, And I think people almost it's like

1:21:24.160 --> 1:21:26.920
<v Speaker 3>ze Way. People would say, how the fuck does anyone

1:21:27.000 --> 1:21:27.679
<v Speaker 3>keep going on there?

1:21:27.760 --> 1:21:29.760
<v Speaker 2>Like, you know, I don't know what ze Way is, but.

1:21:29.840 --> 1:21:31.559
<v Speaker 3>You don't know what she's the black girl that had

1:21:31.560 --> 1:21:33.679
<v Speaker 3>the show on Showtime where she would ask people questions

1:21:33.680 --> 1:21:37.599
<v Speaker 3>and like should Julia Fox. Charlemagne was a guest on there.

1:21:37.840 --> 1:21:38.880
<v Speaker 3>What was her famous one?

1:21:39.880 --> 1:21:41.000
<v Speaker 2>But what was she ask them?

1:21:41.720 --> 1:21:43.920
<v Speaker 3>She would just ask them questions that would make them

1:21:43.920 --> 1:21:47.559
<v Speaker 3>look bad. Oh really, Like she showed Charlemgne a diagram

1:21:47.560 --> 1:21:49.160
<v Speaker 3>and had them point out someone She was like, oh

1:21:49.200 --> 1:21:51.080
<v Speaker 3>so you think that white people are superior type shit?

1:21:51.160 --> 1:21:52.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh okay, But like it's like she was one of

1:21:52.960 --> 1:21:55.800
<v Speaker 3>those and I think like people prepare themselves for those

1:21:56.080 --> 1:21:57.679
<v Speaker 3>funny Marco. I don't know how people.

1:21:57.520 --> 1:21:59.599
<v Speaker 1>Say what that nerves is that the one is where

1:21:59.640 --> 1:22:02.880
<v Speaker 1>the guy just says like insulting things or something kind

1:22:02.880 --> 1:22:05.519
<v Speaker 1>of yeah, because I saw that show and I was like, look,

1:22:05.560 --> 1:22:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I just love that show period.

1:22:07.560 --> 1:22:08.479
<v Speaker 3>Like it's content.

1:22:08.720 --> 1:22:10.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's content is very good.

1:22:10.520 --> 1:22:12.920
<v Speaker 3>I think maybe it's just content that I can't make.

1:22:13.000 --> 1:22:15.200
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, you know, it's hard for me to push

1:22:15.520 --> 1:22:18.840
<v Speaker 3>unless I think something's wrong, like I do Man on

1:22:18.840 --> 1:22:21.920
<v Speaker 3>the Street for my TV show a lot. Yesterday, this

1:22:21.920 --> 1:22:23.880
<v Speaker 3>guy talked about how he had a nether girl to

1:22:23.920 --> 1:22:25.719
<v Speaker 3>work or do something, and I was like, he's black.

1:22:26.200 --> 1:22:27.439
<v Speaker 3>Oh what kind of girls you day? And he's like,

1:22:27.479 --> 1:22:30.679
<v Speaker 3>I prefer white. And then I can see the camera

1:22:30.760 --> 1:22:34.519
<v Speaker 3>crewisers in the back, like oh, like really he was like, yeah,

1:22:34.560 --> 1:22:36.400
<v Speaker 3>I just updated a black girl and they're really crazy.

1:22:36.600 --> 1:22:38.439
<v Speaker 3>I was like, okay, so have you ever met a Karen?

1:22:39.960 --> 1:22:41.960
<v Speaker 3>Were like, well, I don't think that type of way.

1:22:42.000 --> 1:22:44.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh, but there are crazy white women, but i'tely right now.

1:22:44.840 --> 1:22:49.160
<v Speaker 1>My future ex husband he loves white women. But his

1:22:49.240 --> 1:22:54.080
<v Speaker 1>thing is that black women's standards are are higher or like,

1:22:54.520 --> 1:22:57.160
<v Speaker 1>they're not as easy as a white girl, and so

1:22:57.240 --> 1:22:58.719
<v Speaker 1>he lives for the white girls.

1:22:58.840 --> 1:23:00.679
<v Speaker 2>He lives that girl.

1:23:00.640 --> 1:23:02.519
<v Speaker 3>Literally only cheated I mean a white women, to the

1:23:02.560 --> 1:23:06.439
<v Speaker 3>point that I was like, yeah, you must you're dating me,

1:23:06.479 --> 1:23:09.200
<v Speaker 3>so your mom is happy. Yeah, And then I realized, oh,

1:23:09.200 --> 1:23:10.240
<v Speaker 3>maybe I was just light.

1:23:10.120 --> 1:23:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Skinning up, Like, do you This is completely random, but

1:23:14.280 --> 1:23:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I have a pet peeve about dating a guy that

1:23:16.280 --> 1:23:17.479
<v Speaker 1>only dates mixed girls.

1:23:17.840 --> 1:23:18.559
<v Speaker 2>I can't do it.

1:23:18.640 --> 1:23:19.360
<v Speaker 3>I haven't pissed.

1:23:19.400 --> 1:23:20.559
<v Speaker 2>I feel like you haven't.

1:23:20.840 --> 1:23:23.560
<v Speaker 3>Only I didn't know, Like you don't know until.

1:23:23.280 --> 1:23:25.200
<v Speaker 2>You don't know, but when you find I know.

1:23:25.280 --> 1:23:27.120
<v Speaker 1>For me, I just feel like there's a little bit

1:23:27.160 --> 1:23:29.720
<v Speaker 1>of colorism issues there, Like dudes that are like.

1:23:29.680 --> 1:23:32.840
<v Speaker 2>I only like light skin I'm like, all right, I

1:23:32.840 --> 1:23:33.960
<v Speaker 2>don't know, that's weird.

1:23:34.000 --> 1:23:36.320
<v Speaker 1>But I started to think when my ex husband my

1:23:36.400 --> 1:23:41.720
<v Speaker 1>future that maybe he maybe he genuinely just likes white

1:23:41.760 --> 1:23:44.280
<v Speaker 1>girls and he's just saying that as like a cover up.

1:23:44.920 --> 1:23:46.840
<v Speaker 2>No, I think you're right.

1:23:47.160 --> 1:23:52.760
<v Speaker 3>He's like, hey, she light white in a different light, Yeah,

1:23:52.800 --> 1:23:56.080
<v Speaker 3>exactly on some real shit. I think it's kind of

1:23:56.120 --> 1:23:58.240
<v Speaker 3>scary because you really have to clock them as light

1:23:58.240 --> 1:24:00.240
<v Speaker 3>skinn people. You gotta clock them as mixed girls like

1:24:00.479 --> 1:24:02.640
<v Speaker 3>this shit is not cute for like a man that

1:24:02.680 --> 1:24:05.080
<v Speaker 3>you're dating to only date. I had a guy tell

1:24:05.120 --> 1:24:08.360
<v Speaker 3>me once that I was acting dark skin He told

1:24:08.360 --> 1:24:11.280
<v Speaker 3>me it was crazy that my hair wasn't super curly

1:24:11.360 --> 1:24:13.880
<v Speaker 3>like most mixed girls. Wow. And he was like, you

1:24:13.920 --> 1:24:16.720
<v Speaker 3>talk different. Wow. Yeah I don't.

1:24:16.320 --> 1:24:21.120
<v Speaker 2>Like Yeah, I don't. I won't. I won't.

1:24:21.200 --> 1:24:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Well right now, thank god, I'm like one hundred percent

1:24:24.000 --> 1:24:26.000
<v Speaker 1>focused on not dating, which is this is the longest

1:24:26.000 --> 1:24:26.839
<v Speaker 1>I've ever been seeing.

1:24:26.840 --> 1:24:28.519
<v Speaker 3>That's when they be coming too. I'll be trying to

1:24:28.520 --> 1:24:30.080
<v Speaker 3>act like I'm not focused on dating. I'll walk in

1:24:30.120 --> 1:24:33.040
<v Speaker 3>the club and be like, I'm not looking for anyone.

1:24:35.200 --> 1:24:37.439
<v Speaker 2>I like how you be positioned in it too.

1:24:37.640 --> 1:24:41.360
<v Speaker 3>I want to date so bad man, but it's it's tough,

1:24:41.439 --> 1:24:42.560
<v Speaker 3>and honestly.

1:24:42.920 --> 1:24:46.040
<v Speaker 2>How do you juggle a breakup with a with a business. Honestly,

1:24:46.160 --> 1:24:46.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm terrible.

1:24:46.840 --> 1:24:48.720
<v Speaker 1>If it wasn't for my high school friends scooping me

1:24:48.760 --> 1:24:53.080
<v Speaker 1>off the floor behind closed doors. Girl, he's gonna be okay,

1:24:53.200 --> 1:24:55.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, Like, I don't responsibilities, like

1:24:55.760 --> 1:24:56.479
<v Speaker 1>hate to get more of it.

1:24:56.640 --> 1:24:58.200
<v Speaker 3>But the only things that have kept me from killing

1:24:58.200 --> 1:25:00.720
<v Speaker 3>myself is my dog and my team. And it's not

1:25:00.760 --> 1:25:04.840
<v Speaker 3>because they're encouraging me to stay, you know. And it's like, hey,

1:25:04.880 --> 1:25:06.559
<v Speaker 3>we need you to be alive so we can make money.

1:25:06.760 --> 1:25:08.720
<v Speaker 3>But like, literally, I think about them and I'm like,

1:25:09.360 --> 1:25:10.719
<v Speaker 3>one of the people that worked for me I recently

1:25:10.760 --> 1:25:13.840
<v Speaker 3>found out used to be homeless and thanks me all

1:25:13.880 --> 1:25:15.639
<v Speaker 3>the time for being able to do things for their

1:25:15.680 --> 1:25:19.880
<v Speaker 3>mother now and like it's fucking wild. I get random

1:25:19.880 --> 1:25:21.680
<v Speaker 3>texts from a lot of our staff at two in

1:25:21.720 --> 1:25:23.240
<v Speaker 3>the morning, love working with you, and I'm like, all

1:25:23.240 --> 1:25:26.439
<v Speaker 3>these niggas is wrong and it's such a good feeling.

1:25:27.439 --> 1:25:28.960
<v Speaker 3>But I think about that. I think about that when

1:25:28.960 --> 1:25:31.280
<v Speaker 3>I'm getting down on myself, like how dare you? Yeah,

1:25:31.400 --> 1:25:33.680
<v Speaker 3>you know what I mean, Like you are helping all

1:25:33.720 --> 1:25:35.559
<v Speaker 3>of these people. I'm gonna leave my parents alone in

1:25:35.560 --> 1:25:38.200
<v Speaker 3>the world. And when I tell you, my dog no bullshit.

1:25:38.320 --> 1:25:40.240
<v Speaker 3>I was just being trauma queen one day. I was

1:25:40.240 --> 1:25:42.000
<v Speaker 3>like I don't be here anymore, and I looked at her.

1:25:42.000 --> 1:25:45.080
<v Speaker 3>I was like, who's gonna feed me up with those

1:25:45.160 --> 1:25:47.720
<v Speaker 3>little things? Like really got to bring you back. But

1:25:48.120 --> 1:25:50.479
<v Speaker 3>when running those businesses, I'm sure for people that are

1:25:50.479 --> 1:25:53.320
<v Speaker 3>listening that only have themselves, you probably feel like, well,

1:25:53.320 --> 1:25:57.800
<v Speaker 3>who do I fight for? You? Fight for your future self? Yeah? Right,

1:25:59.000 --> 1:26:03.360
<v Speaker 3>Everything is moment, Harry. When you're broke, it's momentary. Sometimes

1:26:03.360 --> 1:26:05.080
<v Speaker 3>when you get in a big check, it might be momentary,

1:26:05.080 --> 1:26:07.040
<v Speaker 3>Like everything is kind of momentary. It's just that feeling

1:26:07.120 --> 1:26:09.839
<v Speaker 3>that will last for a little bit, as strong emotions

1:26:09.920 --> 1:26:11.960
<v Speaker 3>only for a little bit, even when you're crazy in love.

1:26:11.960 --> 1:26:13.760
<v Speaker 3>It just kind of lasts for a period of time.

1:26:14.280 --> 1:26:17.040
<v Speaker 3>And I think that when we are down, we feel

1:26:17.040 --> 1:26:19.160
<v Speaker 3>like it's the end. But you've gotta have faith in

1:26:19.160 --> 1:26:19.920
<v Speaker 3>your future self.

1:26:20.160 --> 1:26:24.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I like that. I'm a personally remember that. No,

1:26:24.600 --> 1:26:28.080
<v Speaker 1>now that I have Zariyah, my daughter, I'm like, yo,

1:26:28.120 --> 1:26:31.200
<v Speaker 1>if you leave and you the number one gangst the

1:26:31.280 --> 1:26:34.519
<v Speaker 1>soldier for her, ain't nobody gonna go harder for ze

1:26:34.680 --> 1:26:35.040
<v Speaker 1>than you?

1:26:35.720 --> 1:26:39.240
<v Speaker 2>Then then what's she gonna have? And I'm like, shit,

1:26:39.439 --> 1:26:42.880
<v Speaker 2>I guess, I guess that's it, you know what I'm saying.

1:26:42.920 --> 1:26:44.559
<v Speaker 2>But I do think too though.

1:26:44.600 --> 1:26:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes when you are having a bad day and you

1:26:46.400 --> 1:26:48.280
<v Speaker 1>have all these responsibilities, I'll.

1:26:48.160 --> 1:26:49.760
<v Speaker 2>Be like, well, how can I go? I got like

1:26:49.880 --> 1:26:52.559
<v Speaker 2>sixteen things planned next week that I have to get done.

1:26:52.640 --> 1:26:54.320
<v Speaker 2>I can't even take the one day off.

1:26:54.400 --> 1:26:58.080
<v Speaker 3>This is why they said they all done. There say

1:26:58.120 --> 1:27:00.240
<v Speaker 3>this thing about how you have to have something over

1:27:00.280 --> 1:27:05.720
<v Speaker 3>two week month. No, I think next days, week or month.

1:27:05.760 --> 1:27:07.960
<v Speaker 3>I can't remember what it is, but it's basically so

1:27:08.040 --> 1:27:10.080
<v Speaker 3>that you don't get to where you feel like you

1:27:10.120 --> 1:27:12.799
<v Speaker 3>have nothing. There has to be something on the calendar,

1:27:12.840 --> 1:27:15.439
<v Speaker 3>whether it be a workout, whether it be a nail,

1:27:15.800 --> 1:27:17.960
<v Speaker 3>something you scheduled for yourself. Even if it's not a trip,

1:27:18.000 --> 1:27:20.519
<v Speaker 3>it's dinner at a cool place. You gotta have something

1:27:20.520 --> 1:27:23.360
<v Speaker 3>because if you don't have that, then you feel hopeless,

1:27:23.800 --> 1:27:25.800
<v Speaker 3>like we need to have those things. My mother actually

1:27:25.840 --> 1:27:28.280
<v Speaker 3>gets like that. My mom's in her seventies. She gets

1:27:28.360 --> 1:27:29.120
<v Speaker 3>so bored.

1:27:29.280 --> 1:27:31.160
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to bring the riots to your mom.

1:27:31.280 --> 1:27:36.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, baby to bad. She does it with

1:27:36.360 --> 1:27:39.240
<v Speaker 3>random people in like restaurants, especially if they're like black

1:27:39.280 --> 1:27:42.400
<v Speaker 3>and cool. She just be looking at the baby. She

1:27:42.439 --> 1:27:45.040
<v Speaker 3>won't talk either. She'll just start to do this while

1:27:45.040 --> 1:27:47.880
<v Speaker 3>the mom's eating it's fine, and then keep talking to me.

1:27:47.880 --> 1:27:54.080

<v Speaker 3>It's a cute show. I go to a brothel this season.

<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'm definitely watching it was crazy.

1:29:31.840 --> 1:29:34.280
<v Speaker 3>My favorite episode of all time on there was when

1:29:34.280 --> 1:29:37.280
<v Speaker 3>my mom did phone sex. That was crazy.

1:29:37.840 --> 1:29:39.680
<v Speaker 2>I feel like I would be greatest phone sex by

1:29:39.720 --> 1:29:42.920
<v Speaker 2>the way, maybe you would, I would. I would be phenomenal.

1:29:43.120 --> 1:29:45.120
<v Speaker 3>Just so I covered the business that does it. She

1:29:45.160 --> 1:29:46.799
<v Speaker 3>teaches women how to keep them on the phone.

1:29:46.960 --> 1:29:49.240
<v Speaker 2>And like, I was in a celibate relationship, so I

1:29:49.280 --> 1:29:49.959
<v Speaker 2>will say.

1:29:51.520 --> 1:29:53.360
<v Speaker 3>I just got out of a simular relationship.

1:29:53.520 --> 1:29:56.240
<v Speaker 2>Really, I hated it, and I absolutely hated it.

1:29:56.360 --> 1:29:58.760
<v Speaker 1>I undred and then I got with my husband, who

1:29:58.880 --> 1:30:01.120
<v Speaker 1>was like the opposite, just a SuperH and I was like.

1:30:01.320 --> 1:30:02.479
<v Speaker 2>This is the best.

1:30:02.520 --> 1:30:05.200
<v Speaker 1>But it came out of a celibate relationship and ran

1:30:05.360 --> 1:30:06.360
<v Speaker 1>right to the opposite.

1:30:06.680 --> 1:30:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, yeah, you.

1:30:07.840 --> 1:30:09.000
