00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: is just L Briant here and I am here with

14
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: hello everyone. My name is Robin Dixon. Yes, this is

15
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: our Reasonably Shady podcast. This is our first podcast. Guys,

16
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: we don't know what the hell we're doing, but just

17
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: bear with us because we're going to figure it out

18
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: and by the time we're like on episode I don't know,

19
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: twenty eight will be great. So we do kind of

20
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: want to tell people how we met, right, Well, I

21
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: think we should start off with, um, just why are

22
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: we Why is this podcast called reasonably Shady? That's very important, um,

23
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: So to know us is to know that Robin is

24
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: extremely reasonable. She's like practical, She's always like Switzerland. She

25
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: always tried to see the good in people. And I'm

26
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: just shady. Okay, Yes, so Geselle's first um reaction to

27
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: something is a shady one, and then I think about it,

28
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: I processed it, and then I try to be like Robin,

29
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: which is very reasonable, but it doesn't really work. I

30
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: just stay on the shady side. Yes, you sure do. Yes,

31
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: I mean, but sometimes you don't take that much convincing.

32
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: I have to, like, you know, we'll have a private reversation.

33
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: I say, well, look at it this way. Sometimes I

34
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: get through to you. Yes, but yes, so welcome to

35
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: Reasonably Shady, where you will get a lot of reason

36
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: and a lot of shades. Yes. Absolutely. Now I can

37
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: say that a hundred years ago, I moved to Baltimore,

38
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: I got married, and um, me and my husband at

39
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: the time went to the car wash, and who did

40
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: I see but this beautiful woman. And I was like,

41
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, she really pretty. She kind of looked

42
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: like me. You know what, I'm saying, and beautiful. Yes,

43
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: that's why she was beautiful. But no, I saw her

44
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: and I was like, Wow, she's really really beautiful, and

45
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: I thought to myself, I wonder who that is. Then

46
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: years later I was at a party long behold, this

47
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: beautiful woman was introduced to me by our French charies.

48
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: So sheis invited us both to a charity event. Um,

49
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: one of the biggest, you know, one of the biggest

50
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: charity events in the city of d C. All the

51
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: women look forward to it when everyone gets pissy drunk. Um.

52
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: So everyone was pissy drunk at this charity event except

53
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: for us maybe probably like a little bit. I was

54
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: probably partaking. We ended up at the same table, sitting

55
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: right next to each other. Yes, So once I realized

56
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: who she was, She's Robin Dixon. It dawned upon me

57
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: because when I moved to Baltimore, Robin is from Baltimore

58
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: that everybody kept asking me was I related to Robin Dixon?

59
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: And I was like, I don't know, no, Robin Dixon,

60
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: and who the hell is Robin Dixon? And Robin Dixon what?

61
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,839
Speaker 1: So then I was like, holy shit, you're the girl

62
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: everybody's been asking me about and she's beautiful, so I

63
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: don't mind being related to her. We're not related, but

64
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: I mean, you know exactly, so we instantly became besties

65
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: and like the rest is history. But I feel like

66
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: it took like it was like we were sitting next

67
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: to each other and we instantly we're being reasonably shady.

68
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: I probably was being shady too, though, absolutely we're being

69
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: shady shady, yes, And we were just you know, observing

70
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: the people in the party, you know, making little comments

71
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: about what was going on and having a good time.

72
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: And it probably took a minute, really for you to realize, oh,

73
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: you're the girl from Baltimore that everyone thinks. Yes, my

74
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: cousin is right. It did take a minute. But once

75
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: I figured it out, I was like cool, Like, at

76
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: least it was somebody that I thought was cool as

77
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: opposed to an asshole. And it's you know, it's kind

78
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: of weird. It's like, even though you didn't know me,

79
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: just figuring out that there was some sort of connection

80
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: and you knew people that knew me, it was like, okay,

81
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: all right, she's really cool. And then I realized that

82
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: she was the woman on the side of the metro

83
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: bus that I would see I hate robbing right now, Okay,

84
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: I hate robbing because once upon a time I was

85
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: on metro buses as a billboard. Not because um, I'm

86
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 1: wanted for like a crime or something. Well no, no, no,

87
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,359
Speaker 1: you weren't on the bus for a crime, but you

88
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: were like laying on top of your then husband Jamal,

89
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: like to our church. Yes, okay, they were very cute.

90
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 1: It was. It was very cute, and I was on,

91
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: look are you hating the picture? I need I have

92
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: to find a picture of these pusses. I mean I

93
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: would literally be like, Oh, who's that woman on the

94
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 1: side of the bus. She's pretty? Like who are the

95
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: robin is hating on my past? Yes? I like it

96
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: was so we were like instantly I was like, oh,

97
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: that's the woman outside of the bus, and just I

98
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: was like, oh that's the woman that everyone thinks it's

99
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: my cousin. And we were, you know, both silly, goofy,

100
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 1: having fun, laughing, instantly hit it off. Yes, yes, And

101
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: then years later, um, we got a call about a

102
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: show called The Real Housewives Potomac and we've rocked that

103
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: out for I don't know, several seasons. So it helps

104
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: solidify I mean we were already best these before then,

105
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: but it really helped with our relationship. And we've had

106
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: each other's back on the show. They've been trying to

107
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 1: tell us apart, but we have had each other's back,

108
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: and I like, totally appreciate that. By the way, I

109
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Thank you. Oh, I mean that's what real

110
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 1: friends do. Yes, absolutely, Um, so can we talk about

111
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: the Real Housewives of tom How we got here? So

112
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 1: just that will tell you. So when they first started

113
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: casting for a show for Bravo, um, you know, they're like, oh,

114
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: they're looking for an ensemble cast of women in the

115
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: in the DC area. And Zell had already been talking

116
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: to a casting director and Saris had already been talking

117
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: to the same casting director. And they said, well, Carl Robin,

118
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: because you know, she's our friend, she'd be great, blah

119
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: blah blah. And I want to say I was already in.

120
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: They liked me. Yeah, she was already in. So the

121
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: casting director calls and so so they're both like, Rob

122
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: when you talk to the casting director, I'm like, for what, Like,

123
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't got nothing going on. I was

124
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: going through like I was. My life was in shambles.

125
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: I will be honest about that. Um, you know, financially,

126
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: we were in a bad place, my relationship was in

127
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: a bad place. All that type of stuff. Um, I

128
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: think I was divorced by them. Yeah, you're definitely divorced.

129
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,799
Speaker 1: So I was like, I'll talk to him, but whatever.

130
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 1: I talked to him, and in my first you know,

131
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, not in my opinion, not auditioning for show.

132
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: I'm having a conversation. So my first you know line

133
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: with him, he was like, you know, tell me about yourself.

134
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: I was like, well, I don't live that life bad.

135
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: I should have prepped Robin and I did. I'm like,

136
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I'm not living that life. And so

137
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: he called either Giselle or she reasons like I hate her. Okay,

138
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna give the story how it really happened.

139
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: So I was in. I was good to go, and

140
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: they were like, do you have any friends? And I

141
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: was like, yes, Robin, and you're gonna call her and

142
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: she's gonna be amazing. And so they called this person

143
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: that I had hyped up like I was a hype woman.

144
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: I was like, she's amazing. And then Robbin is on

145
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: the phone, like not giving a ship. So the guy

146
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: immediately called me back and was like, um, I hate

147
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: her and she's out, And I was like, oh hell no, callarback, callarback, callarback.

148
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: So it took Robin a minute to be nice to

149
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: casting and so finally, you know, they obviously loved her,

150
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: and the rest is history. Every day I'm still like,

151
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: how did I get on this show? Because I told

152
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: him call robbing back? Right. Um, But it's been fun.

153
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: It's been a journey and most of you who watched

154
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: the show have seen our relationship. And you know, I

155
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: think the name of our podcast reasonably shady? Is it?

156
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: You probably think it fits us? Yes? Yes, So how

157
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: do we get to this podcast? All right? We gotta

158
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: talk about the pandamn demmic, okay, because that is what

159
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: it is. Um. And like I think, during the beginning

160
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: of the pandemic, we decided for whatever reason, to have

161
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: an Instagram live together because we were bored, y shitless,

162
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: we were bored. We missed each other, and so we

163
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: did that. And we don't get on Instagram a lot,

164
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: like we're not, you know, addicted to social media. So um,

165
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: that was kind of like the first time in a

166
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: really long time. We had gotten on Instagram Live together. Yeah.

167
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: Did you even have lashes at that point? Did you

168
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: have some lashes on it? Because I think I look crazy.

169
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: You might have had a termine on my head or something.

170
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: You had a term I have like my hair like

171
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: on a ponytail top of my head. The pandemic hit. Okay,

172
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: can we talk about like the pandemic hit? Um? And

173
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, yes, I mean I was like

174
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,239
Speaker 1: kind of loving in it, pers because I was like, Oh,

175
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: I don't have to get my hair done. I don't

176
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 1: have to get to my lashes done. I don't have

177
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: to put on clothes. I don't have to And that's

178
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,559
Speaker 1: a dream for Robin, for everyone to know, that is

179
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: Robin's dream in life to never have to do any

180
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: of those things anything. I didn't have to get my

181
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: nails done. I let my nails fall off. I still

182
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: haven't put them back on. What else? Um? Um? You

183
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: had on sweatpants every day? Pants every day. I was

184
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: drinking wine at ten a m. And eating chocolate cake

185
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 1: at four am. Wait wait, I remember Robin called me

186
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: and she was like just how oh my god it

187
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: was midnight and I had I just polished off an

188
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: ice cream bar. I can't do it anymore. And I

189
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: was like, back away from the refrigerator, back away. It

190
00:09:55,240 --> 00:10:00,079
Speaker 1: was hard. I gained like a good fourteen pounds the

191
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: pandemic during that, like that first two months of the pandemic,

192
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: I gained fourteen pounds for sure. And then a light

193
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: switch went off and I was like, I hate food.

194
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't want to Yes, I was like, I don't

195
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: want to eat. I don't want anything. So now, like

196
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,719
Speaker 1: this has been going on till this day. Um, I've

197
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 1: only had a bar. It's everyone, It's eight thirty at

198
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: night PM and I've had one bar. Like, okay, but Robin,

199
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: we can eat. I mean, we don't have to go

200
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: that far. I know. But something happened. I mean I

201
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 1: still eat, but it's like I'm not hungry. I went

202
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: from eating all day, all night, staying up until like

203
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: four in the morning and just pigging out to not eating.

204
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: Like so you're like a bear in hibernation, Yes you

205
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: have stored up fat and then yes, but right so

206
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: I decided, Like for me, it was kind of similar,

207
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: like one day I woke up and I was like,

208
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: I'm not cooking anymore. And I have children, and I

209
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: was like, I don't care if they starve, because there's

210
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: gonna be no food being cooked up in this home. God,

211
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: I'm done, yes, because at first we were cooking all day,

212
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: three times a day. Now I am proud to say

213
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: I am like a Platinum plus tier member of Chick

234
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: so no, I know, but I feel like all of that,

235
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: Like it's hard to talk about a pandemic and not

236
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: talk about all the ship that we were. Yeah, that's true.

237
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: And it was literally it was a lot because Robin,

238
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: you and I were sending each other menus, I mean

239
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: not menus. We were sending recipes of different food that

240
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: we could cook. And none of it was um, like

241
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 1: fat free. None of it was like the skinny portion.

242
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: This was all like food food you're looking good, yes,

243
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: with butter. So that had to stop. That stopped. That

244
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: was horrible. Um. But I feel like, you know, clearly

245
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: were coming out of the pandemic and I feel better

246
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: about my life. Oh me too, absolutely, And spring is sprung.

247
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: That always helps. So it was a really rough patch

248
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: for me. Um, just this past like you know, fall, winter,

249
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: and now that spring is here, it's like, okay, spring

250
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: us here. We have a vaccine, we have you know,

251
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: I think we're we've just become more accustomed to life

252
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 1: as it is. Although I feel like we are getting better,

253
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: um and I'm feeling better about life. I am. I'm

254
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: feeling really good. And you know, we're in the State

255
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: of Maryland, and State of Maryland is doing great with

256
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: their numbers, and that's making me feel like, you know,

257
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: there's there's light at the end of the tunnel. It is,

258
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: absolutely but I'm still very cautious. You know, I'm not

259
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: out and about. I'm not you know, trying to be

00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: turn Okay, great goose. Okay, all right, that's my drink anyway.

305
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 1: So okay, back to where we were talking about, that's

306
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: such been your outlet for the pandemic. That has been

307
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: my outlet in the path over the past few months.

308
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: Like at first I was very like, I'm not leaving

309
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: an house. I'm not going anywhere. And now it's like, okay,

310
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 1: these kids need to get on the basketball court and

311
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: I need to leave the house. That is like an outlet.

312
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: Getting back to how we are here at this podcast,

313
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: people robbing went on a rant um we like we said,

314
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: we we did Instagram Live together. We did one or

315
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: two maybe just one, I can't remember. And the feedback

316
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: that we were getting or the comments were that, oh,

317
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: you know, j Robin, you'll should have a Green Knight bandage.

318
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: 'all should have a podcast. And and I think it's

319
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: because when we're talking to one another, the people who

320
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: are listening or watching, they feel like they're like our

321
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 1: girlfriends too, or our friends too, Like they're right there

322
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: in the room with us, and they're like, you know,

323
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: they're getting it, they're keeping with us, like we're not

324
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: just like talking, you know, just about the show, and

325
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: like we're literally just laughing, joking, having fun. And I

326
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,640
Speaker 1: think people people really responded to that, like they were

327
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: messaging me, messaging both of us, like you guys need

328
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: a podcast, you guys need a podcast. And um so

329
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: I Robin told me. I put it out. Robin called

330
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: me and said, she said, you know, people were giving

331
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: that kind of feedback. I put it out into the universe.

332
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 1: In other words, I called my manager and I told

333
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: her to make it happen. And here we are today.

334
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: We are on our herd. We we are on the

335
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: Black Effect. Platform. Thank you Black Effect. We love y'all,

336
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: and you know, I feel like this is a great way,

337
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: speaking of outlets of us to like share our stories. Um,

338
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 1: we've been through person really a lot. You know, I'm divorced,

339
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: I got three kids. Um Robin is not really divorced,

340
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 1: kind of not really. She's okay, fine, she's married, she

341
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: has two kids, and we're both entrepreneurs. We both believe

342
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 1: in success. We try to get our hustle on. We

343
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: try to teach our kids, um, to be the best

344
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: people that they can be. And I feel like, um,

345
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of people out there. They

346
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: are striving for greatness. So that is what we are

347
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: going to try to bring you all week by week.

348
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 1: But first, because we are reasonably shady, we'd like to

349
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: give y'all individually our reasonably shady moment of the week.

350
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: M Robin, would you like to go first? Okay, I

351
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: will go first. So today at an appointment to Kit

352
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 1: corn Rows, Okay, explain that because is that different from

353
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: loose locks lemon locks. I need an explation because I

354
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 1: don't know nothing about these braids. Well me neither. That's

355
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: the problem. So you know, I don't know a whole

356
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: much about hair. I just typically I go to my

357
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 1: hair styles and as they do my hair, thank you.

358
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: So I don't really know the terminology for corn rows

359
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 1: or braids or whatever it is. So I just told

360
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: the girl I want corn rows. I'm going on a

361
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: trip I don't want to do with my hair. I

362
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: want some corn rows. And she's like, well, what stou

363
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: do you want? I was like, oh my lord, what

364
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: do you mean? So I was like, just I said,

365
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: just do something cool, right, I'm thinking because I've gotten

366
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 1: corn roads before. And it literally took like less than

367
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: two hours to do. And I had all these appointments,

368
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: you know, I had somewhere to be okay, called my

369
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: house to do this podcast podcast. Yes. Um, so I

370
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: was like, okay, my appointments at two, I'll be out

371
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: by four the latest. I can go home and you know,

372
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: eat something or you know, see my kids, make sure

373
00:19:53,680 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 1: they're cool. Yeah. Um, five and a half hours later, right,

374
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 1: I walk out. First of all, I had to I

375
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 1: texted you out probably like five times. Oh I'm running late.

376
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 1: Oh I'm even later. Oh I'm even later, Like I

377
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 1: literally and it's so crazy. It's like I thought she

378
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: was almost done, but she wasn't. It was like, okay,

379
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: there was like a patch of hair and I was like, okay,

380
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: that's the last one. And I was like, oh, okay,

381
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: now it's the last one. And then it was like, so, oh,

382
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: here is reasonably shady you to me because you late

383
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: or the lady that did your hair to you. I'm

384
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: gonna say me because I did not tell her. I

385
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: was on a time constraint, okay, you know, like and

386
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 1: it's like once she started doing her thing, it's too late.

387
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: You know. I couldn't be like, wait, wait a minute, Um,

388
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 1: this feels like it's taking a little bit longer, like

389
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: you know, when I got like half my hair braided.

390
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 1: So they're very cute. By the way, Robbel looks really cute.

391
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: For those of you all cannot see us, she looks

392
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: very very cute and she's a very pretty woman. And

393
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 1: that's why we love her. Even though she was two

394
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 1: hours late. I was too. It's really more like three

395
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: three late. Latest spot there there we go. There we

396
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: are just late. So so I am the shady person

397
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,719
Speaker 1: because you're okay alright, so um, and just to know us,

398
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: just to know that I was always on time. I

399
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: lived by that. I don't know where that came from.

400
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: In my life. I'm a virgo. Yes, I'm always on

401
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 1: time and Robin is always late. So guys, if you

402
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 1: all don't get an episode from us, it's because Robin

403
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: didn't show up. She was like, oh ship, then no,

404
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 1: just call a guest, okay, or I'll just do it myself. Okay. Anyway, alright,

405
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: so my good thing is like you love me. It's

406
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: so crazy. I was like, when I was texting, I

407
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: was like, I'm really late, and I was like, oh shoot,

408
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: I don't want know what she's gonna say. It's like okay.

409
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, what was I going to say? Oh? God? Actually,

410
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: and honestly, we were supposed to do this at ten am. Yes.

411
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 1: And I called her last night, yes, after I got

412
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: home from a basketball tournament, and I was like, um,

413
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: I think that's a little too soon. We're going to

414
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: a little more time because I get my last done,

415
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: like I gotta have. Let me tell you, I'm the

416
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: book of excuses. Okay, people bear with me. Pray for me, y'all.

417
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: Pray for me, yes, pray for me in these streets anyway. Okay,

418
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: So my reasonably shady moment is you know, I have

419
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: met a couple of new ladies lately, and one of

420
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: them I reached out to because I felt like, you know,

421
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 1: she could be a cool girlfriend and we could kind

422
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: of keep key together or whatever. And I sent her

423
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 1: a little text message and I was like, hey, um,

424
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: why don't we hang out for drinks? Right? And she

425
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 1: responds back and says, mmmm, well, um, you're gonna need

426
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 1: to go on my assistant and have you penciled into

427
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: my schedule? Who does that? Now? That's not reasonably shady.

428
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: That's just shady. That's shady shady. Yes, it's all the

429
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: way whack shady. That's right. Yeah, but it but it

430
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,879
Speaker 1: falls under this is what happened to me, um in

431
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: my week, and I just want to share that with

432
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: you all. So that should be like, okay, well kick

433
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: rocks and keep it moving, kick rocks, keep it moving

434
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 1: because I have friends that I can have drinks with.

435
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: I don't need any new friends. Yeah, and what and

436
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,919
Speaker 1: that what Drake said? I don't know no new friends.

437
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: That's Drake or who said that? Was that little baby

438
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 1: or a baby? I can't tell them apart it was Drake. Okay, no,

439
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: new friends alright. Anyway, moving on, Um, so we would

440
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: like to share some our or I would like Robbing

441
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: to be honest, because I've known Robbin for a while

442
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: so I know her past, and we're seasoned women, right,

443
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,719
Speaker 1: we've come a long way, a little more season than me.

444
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 1: So anyway, um, and I feel like there's a big

445
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: difference between like who we were as children growing up.

446
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 1: And I can identify with this because my kids are

447
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: teenagers now. They're a little bit of not not off

448
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: the chain, but you know, they do things that make

449
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: me wonder, how will you grow up and what will

450
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: you be? Right? It's extremely scary. So I would like

451
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: for us to give a little tip bit into our past,

452
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: rob and so people can really understand us. Okay, well

Speaker 1: to know more and more and more about us. So

459
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: where what better place than to start with our our

460
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: childhood or you know, how we became who we are today.

461
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: So I grew up um with two professional parents. My

462
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: father is a dentist. UM. My mother was a professor

463
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: at Morgan State University and then also an entrepreneur. Um.

464
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: We lived a very upper middle class, bougie black people life.

465
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,959
Speaker 1: And when I say bougie, I mean we were in

466
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: you know, Jack and Jill. Um. My my mother is

467
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 1: in a sorority and my father is in a fraternity. Um.

468
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: You know I am in a sorority as well. Um.

469
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: I guess we should just nate. I mean I don't.

470
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 1: I don't have to protect the name. So my mother

471
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: is a Delta, my father is a Kappa um and

472
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: and you know, they both went to HBCUs. They're very

473
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: like social in the in the city of Baltimore, very

474
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: well known. It just you know, because Baltimore is a

475
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: small town, and you know, years ago wasn't that many

476
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 1: professional black people in the city of Baltimore. There weren't

477
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: that many black dentists in Baltimore. Just whatever. It is.

478
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 1: So because of that, my parents we're very I do

479
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: always to call them boogie though, because they're like they

480
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: were like laid back bougie people, like down to earth

481
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 1: bougie people. Yes, I agree, with that, and you know,

482
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 1: we're all in in the social organizations that are more

483
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: exclusive and hard to get into. Um. So that was

484
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 1: kind of the life that I lived. I went to

485
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: a private school, a very prestigious and expensive private school,

486
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 1: UM from nine through twelve, and um you know, had

487
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: a car as soon as I turned sixteen, like all

488
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: that stuff. Lived a good life. And oh I was

489
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 1: so smart that by the by the age of three,

490
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: I was reading and so they put me in school

491
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 1: a year early. Okay, So I was like my parents

00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 1: golden child because I was so smart and I was

493
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: so well behaved, and I was and my brother was

494
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: a terror. My brother's three years older than me. And

495
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: my brother was like the worst child ever. Yes, I

496
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: said that he was. You could tell him. I said

497
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: that too. He was the worst, Like he was a nightmare.

498
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: He was wild. I think, like you know they I

00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,959
Speaker 1: break because that son of yours is a terror. So

504

Speaker 1: I was the perfect child. Yes, I know, this is

505
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 1: going downhill. Yes, Somewhere along the way, I met some

506
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: people who weren't the perfect children, and I succumbed to

507
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:03,480

548
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,560

549
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: right now, because you know, the twents and fourteen, if

550
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: they were smoking weed, I would be like livid. I

Speaker 1: my and my son Corey just turned thirteen yesterday, and

553
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: I could not imagine him being around anyone doing that.

554
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: So do I need to keep you away from my kids?

555
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: Are you a bad influence? Robbing? What's happening? Know the story?

556
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: There's like a there's like, um, is there a light

557
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: at the end of the time? The light at where's

558
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 1: the light? It's coming? I mean, it gets a little

559
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: bad and then it gets when when was sex involved?

560
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: Ninth grade? For what? Robin Dixon cannot come around my kids.

561
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: I'm here to tell y'all she's got some bad values.

562
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: But all the while I'm like, Okay, I know I'm

563
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 1: doing I'm being really bad, and I hope I don't

564
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: get in trouble. I hope my parents don't find out.

565
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: I don't know how the funk I got away with

566
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: this stuff? I just don't. So ninth grade came. This

567
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 1: is where the turning point happened. Because at this point

568
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: you're like, uh, what do you call it a delinquent?

569
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 1: You're a juvenile delinquent, right, I could have been in juvie. Okay. So,

570
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: and this is all because I had a friend that

571
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: was my best friend, and she didn't have supervision, like

572
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: her parents are buried. And her parents smoked cigarettes too,

573
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: so it's like if we were smoking in the basement,

574
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: they weren't going to be able to even tell, right.

575
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 1: So I spent a lot of time in her house, um,

576
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 1: and got into all types of trouble. So ninth grade

577
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: something a lightbulb went off in my father's head, Thank you, Jesus,

578
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: because you've been running around town killing people's Mercedes fans Jesus.

579
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: And I was at my friend's house and we were

580
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: running the neighborhood somehow, I'm trying to remember the story. Oh,

581
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: there was a guy I was talking to and he

582
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: was four years older than me. Of course he was.

583
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 1: He was probably because of course the fourteen year old

584
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: boys weren't you know, they weren't doing and was this

585
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 1: were you even of age? No, you were not, and

586
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 1: he was this was called rape? It sure was right.

587
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: Clearly you can never talk to my kids again. I

588
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: can speak from experience what not to do. I am

589
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 1: the example of what not to do. But what happened

590
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: to was so fourteen, hanging out with my friend and

591
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: her boyfriend who and they had been like having sex

592
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: for two years, you know, and then um and then

593
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 1: the guy that was a senior in high school and

594
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 1: we drank mad dog smoke weed and I remember is

595
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: I was in the back of the car getting laid,

Speaker 1: getting what's laid me? You were having sex? Okay, I'm sorry, okay, yes, okay,

597
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: And then what happened? This is getting good. So that happened,

598
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: and then something something in my father's head, like a

599
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: light bulb went off, and he was like he started

600
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 1: looking for me, like I was at my friend's house

601
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: and he literally drove to their house and was like,

604
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: Three years? Probably three years, I guess, so I think

605
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: he always I think it was one of those where

606
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 1: like they knew that my friend probably wasn't the best influence,

607
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: which but I would always be like, but that's my friend.

608
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: I want to go to her house please, And we

609
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: spent like all like a lot of time together. She

610
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 1: was Jewish, I can recite Hebrew prayers. I've been you

611
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It was just like I spent

612
00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: that much time that I was at like Rasha Shana

613
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 1: did her with her and all that type of stuff.

614
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: So but something that my parents would always try to like, no,

615
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: we don't want you to go over there, because I

616
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: think they knew that it just we were not supervised.

617
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: So for whatever reason, that night he drove over there,

618
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: came and got me, and I'm drunk as a skunk,

619
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,239
Speaker 1: and literally it was like for me, that was like

620
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: the worst thing imaginable for me, for my parents to

621
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 1: see that I was drunk like that and to disappoint

622
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:38,479
Speaker 1: them like that that I literally didn't drink again, like

623
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like after that experience, right, well,

624
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: I want say I didn't drink again because clearly because

625
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: you drunk last week with the basketball moms, Okay, I

626
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: want to say again, I probably didn't pick back like

627
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: my partying up until like senior year in high school,

628
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: but I wasn't. I stopped hanging out with my friend

629
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 1: and do you know, by senior year in high school,

630
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: she was addicted to heroin, Like she had to go.

631
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: Who you telling? I mean, when I think about I'm like,

632
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: oh my god, that could have been me. Even though

633
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: I felt like I was a little I have, like,

634
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: you know, more willpower than that I had, Like I

635
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 1: was always one. Like you know when when you were

636
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: in like drug did you have d air class? What

637
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 1: was it called dare? Yes? Okay, when I was in

638
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 1: da air class and they showed you the pictures and

639
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 1: when they tried to scare you, and it scared me

640
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: right right. So I didn't think I was going to

641
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 1: go that far. But the fact that my friend that

642
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: I hung out with every weekend was addicted to heroin

643
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 1: by the time she was in twelfth grade, Like I

644
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: just think about, like what could have been? So clearly

645
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: we love your father because he got you on the

646
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: straets and arrow. He saved me, he saved you. But

647
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: back then, so back then, you weren't you were not

648
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: thinking about your future and what you were going to

649
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 1: do and who you were going to be. No, who

650
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 1: Who's doing that in ninth grade. Well, my children do that. Yes,

651
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 1: Oh they're going to be okay, they're like ahead of

652
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 1: the curve. They are. Yes, that's amazing, because no, I'll

653
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: be honest, I'm forty one. I still don't know what

654
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 1: I want to be, and that we're going to say

655
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 1: for another episode. People, Robbin's pretty one and she has

656
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: no clue what she wants to do with her life.

657
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: That's because I feel like that's a lot of people

658
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: and people can relate to that. Oh. Absolutely, yes, absolutely,

659
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,479
Speaker 1: I mean I just feel like, yes, how many times

660
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 1: in college like you. I mean, I feel like all

661
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 1: of my friends in college, like I don't know what

662
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: I do unless you have that one friend that's like

663
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to be a doctor. And I'm like, good

664
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 1: for you, bitch, I'm so happy that you figured that out.

665
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 1: Like this is true. But anyway, yeah, um yeah, So

666
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: that story, that experience like probably saved my life, you

667
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 1: know what I mean, It probably really saved me from

668
00:35:55,640 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 1: just being like just totally jacked up and see my

669
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: parents so disappointed, like literally scared me to the point

670
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:04,320
Speaker 1: where I was like, Okay, I don't want to do

671
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: that again. And you know, I still was a good student. Like,

672
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 1: you know, I finished, I was a good student. I was.

673
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:14,280
Speaker 1: I went to college, you know, graduated, all that good stuff.

674
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 1: You met one, you had some kids, and you met

675
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: a friend named just Ol. We're here today, so it

676
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: just out, Yes, well, mine is like um Cinderella in

677
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,840
Speaker 1: comparison New Yrs, mine is very PG rated. I was

678
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 1: not vandalizing any cars in the streets. Um. I think

679
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: I had a wild moment. Let me see, probably high

680
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 1: school going into college, and I remember like one of

681
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: the nights I was like, I can't do this anymore, right,

682
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: was like I was turned so in college, I happened

683
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 1: to turn twenty one. Being in college one is a

684
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 1: very big difference from Robin's fourteen years old, for the record,

685
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 1: But anyway, Um, and I was enjoying myself, living my

686
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: life and doing my thing. I'm in college and the

687
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 1: guys I was hanging out with it was like, Giselle,

688
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,879
Speaker 1: you turn into one, you have to take twenty one shot.

689
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: And I was like, okay, that sounds good to me.

690
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,760
Speaker 1: It's like so I was down. I was like ready

691
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: for the challenge. And I don't know where in the

692
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 1: twenty one. I literally have no idea about the rest

693
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 1: of the night, but I can promise you. I tried

694
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: to get there because it was a challenge and I

695
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: wanted our lucky your life. I know, I wanted to

696
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,959
Speaker 1: I wanted to beat the challenge. And I remember saying,

697
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,280
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm gonna make it, y'all. Probably around

698
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 1: shot ten, I was like, I don't think I'm gonna

699
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 1: make it. Jo some cheap ass liquor too. It was

700
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,360
Speaker 1: probably like a mad dog, but it was like shots anyway.

701
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: So and then oh, I don't want to cut you off,

702
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 1: go ahead, but you said mad dogs. So when my

703
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: parents when when I got caught being pissie drunk, and

704
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: my parents were like, what were you thinking? Why are

705
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,720
Speaker 1: you doing? I was like, well, it says that it's wine,

706
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 1: and I didn't think that wine was bad. So she's

707
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 1: just lying on type of line, type of line. And

708
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: then oh my god, this is like the the victim.

709
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 1: I was trying to victimize myself. So then they're all

710
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: like mad at me, and my brother's like let me.

711
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 1: I was like, I want to kill myself. I got

712
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: to kill myself. That was like to get them to

713
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,839
Speaker 1: like leave back up off, you leave me alone, I'm

714
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,879
Speaker 1: gonna kill myself. So at least you were a smart,

715
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 1: juvenile delinquent. Yes, I like that. Um so back a

716
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,760
Speaker 1: little bit of a backstory. Um, I am the youngest

717
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: of three kids, so by the time I was coming up,

718
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: and we're all kind of like eighteen months apart. So

719
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,799
Speaker 1: by time I got like, you know, in my high

720
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,360
Speaker 1: school years or whatever, my parents like, I think we're tired,

721
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: and they didn't feel like dealing with me and they

722
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: didn't care what I did. So, um, I did get

723
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: away with a lot, you know, maybe sneaking out the

724
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: house a couple of times, things like that, but no,

725
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 1: nothing like too traumatic. But yes, when I was trying

726
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,919
Speaker 1: to take my twenty one shots on my twenty first birthday,

727
00:38:56,480 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 1: I realized I can't do this and I feel crazy.

728
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 1: And I felt crazy for like weeks, like I felt sick,

729
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 1: I felt like delirious. I felt like God was trying

730
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: to tell me something. I don't know what he was

731
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 1: trying to tell me, but he was just like, bitch,

732
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:12,359
Speaker 1: you don't need to be drinking all this Like that,

733
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 1: that was what I was getting from God. You are lucky.

734
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,319
Speaker 1: You are alive. I mean because and and not like

735
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:19,879
Speaker 1: I guess to be serious now, like we do hear

736
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: stories of people in college who died from alcohol overdose.

737
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: But whoever was giving me the challenge, I know who

738
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 1: they are to this day. Why did y'all do that

739
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,360
Speaker 1: to me? Like that wasn't nice, That wasn't a good challenge.

740
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: That was the worst, and how they feel their daughter? Right?

741
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: And I was so crazy. I just was like, okay,

742
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: I'll do it. Who agrees to this? Okay? So stupid

743
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 1: Carllege students right um? And then you know, after I

744
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 1: graduate from college, and I still I didn't know what

745
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: I wanted to do either. I didn't know you know,

746
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 1: where I wanted to land. I do know that I

747
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 1: did want to like plan things. I wanted to be

748
00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: like an event plann or wedding plant or something like that.

749
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 1: And I did you that for a little while for

00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 1: hell no, not only no, but I don't want to

757
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: do that. It wasn't a desire. If not some people

758
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: want to be on TV, right, I had no desire.

759
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: I was living my life and enjoying myself prior to

760
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 1: our casting director calling me and saying this is what

761
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna do. And then and then I actually talked

762
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: when when you and I talked about it, you would

763
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 1: like to say you we only live once? Like why not?

764
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: And where where? Why not? And who knows if we'll

765
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: make it past season one? We all season six. I

766
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 1: didn't even think season one was going to make the

767
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: light of day. Yes, we're on season three, just for

768
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 1: the for the for the people in the in the

769
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 1: cheap seats in the back. We're on season three And

770
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,399
Speaker 1: Robs like, are we still on this show? Was is real?

771
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 1: Like yes, Like Robin didn't get it for a very

772
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 1: long time that we were on TV. Like she would

773
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 1: be like confused, like we'd been walking down street people

774
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 1: screaming our name. She's like, who are they talking to? Right?

775
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: They talking to us? Robbing, We're on TV. I actually

776
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 1: experienced that this past weekend at a basketball tournament. Like

777
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: there's this lady like waving crazy and I'm like, looking

778
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 1: behind me, I'm like what she she sees someone, Oh,

779
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: you're waving at me. Yes, I will never forget. And

780
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 1: actually this was actually season one, so it was a

781
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: little weird. So this could this could be believable. I mean,

782
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: you could you know, not be this naive. We were

783
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: in Bethany Beach and because we went there for Ashley's

784
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 1: um it was our trip. That was our trip Bethany Beach,

785
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: and they got wind that a reality show was filming

786
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: in Bethany Beach. So we were like, I think going

787
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: to the boardwalk or whatever, and it was a mob

788
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 1: of people just like waiting for us to get off

789
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 1: the bus. And Rob was like, holy shit, who are

790
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: those people? Why are they here? What are they doing here?

791
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: It's like where I'm being there here for us? And

792
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 1: she was like, what do you mean, no, No, I

793
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 1: was like, yes, they see camera crews and they're running now.

794
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:12,960
Speaker 1: At the time, they nobody thought beyont he was getting

795
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 1: off the bus though, and Beyonce did. It was me

796
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 1: and you I'm just saying but anyway, um, so we

797
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,040
Speaker 1: get off the bus and they didn't know who we were,

798
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 1: but like after that, it's like you know, it has.

799
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: This ride has been a blessing, I'll say for um,

800
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 1: for myself, and I think I can speak about for

801
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: the both of us. You know, it's ups and downs,

802
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: it's highs and lows, but we have been able to

803
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,839
Speaker 1: showcase things that we do love and our family. I'm

804
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 1: proud of my family. I'm proud of the mom that

805
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 1: I am, and I feel like that is a blessing.

806
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: And if anybody can, especially your story, Robin, because you're

807
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: so relatable, if anybody can learn from our lives, I

808
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 1: think the whole thing is worth it, right absolutely. One

809
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,760
Speaker 1: of the biggest blessings for me is when I receive

810
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,880
Speaker 1: feedback and comments from people who are like, you have

811
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: helped me. You know you, I've you know, I'm not

812
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: in a good place, but I watched the show and

813
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 1: either it's for comic relief or it's because they look

814
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: at our stories and say, WHOA I can relate to that.

815
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 1: I love how you overcame. Thank you for sharing. And

816
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: so for me, the best part is just affecting other

817
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 1: people's lives that I don't even know. And let me

818
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 1: tell you, it's not easy, No, not easy. I don't

819
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 1: recommend reality television for anybody who does not have thick skin.

820
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 1: When I say, think scan like elephant scan, right right. Fortunately,

821
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 1: and that's the thing about both of us. We don't

822
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 1: care like you know, all of the scrutinyus received. I mean,

823
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 1: sometimes it is a little jarring when you can we

824
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,319
Speaker 1: can receive so much negativity, but we know who we

825
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: are and we have the people in our lives that

826
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,399
Speaker 1: are important to us, and we know that love us,

827
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: and they're not going to change for us, and we're

828
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 1: not going to change for them. So fortunately, I've been

829
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 1: able to maintain friendships with all of my friends that

830
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: I've been friends with before the show, and they don't

831
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 1: give a day we're about the show, you know what

832
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 1: I mean. And so I can have good girl time

833
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:10,200
Speaker 1: with my friends and not talk about the show and

834
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 1: just feel like myself. And so, yes, it's it's stressful.

835
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:17,360
Speaker 1: It's hard. Filming is hard, Watching the show is hard.

836
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 1: The you know, scrutiny is hard. But overall, the blessing

837
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: has been just like way more than than the negativity,

838
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,000
Speaker 1: right right, So people, we're about to wrap up this

839
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 1: first episode. We that was so fat. I know, but

840
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 1: that we we we have a couple of takes from

841
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,920
Speaker 1: the episode. Okay, so take number one for me is

842
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 1: Robin was, as you have, not delinquent. But she has

843
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 1: come so far people, Okay, she has I mean, listen,

844
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 1: she didn't come from vandalizing Mercedes Bens to being an

845
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 1: owner of Embellished and her hats are selling have on

846
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 1: one right now. Her hats are selling like hot cakes,

847
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,800
Speaker 1: Honny hot cakes. So that's amazing. Do you have a

848
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,800
Speaker 1: take from this show? I do would say thank God

849
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: that Giselle did not overdose and she's here because we

850
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: don't do it, because we wouldn't be here. We would

851
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: not be on season six of The Real Housewives of Potomac.

852
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: We would not We were not um. And you know

853
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 1: what more importantly, like the power of friendship, Like I'm

854
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 1: so happy that we are friends and we have a

855
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 1: sisterhood that is unbreakable, absolutely absolutely, and that is so valuable.

856
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: And when you have that friendship, everyone just nurtured it. Yes. Yes, Now,

857
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 1: at the end of every episode, guys, we're going to

858
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 1: be giving you are reasonable person of the day or

859
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: the week or the year, and our shady person of

860
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,800
Speaker 1: the day, the week, or the year. So who's reasonable

861
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: these days? I mean, this is our first podcast and

862
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 1: we just have to pay homage, homage, homage both the

863
00:45:53,360 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 1: age of silent right, it's it's homma homage, hommagemmage. I

864
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,359
Speaker 1: promise I went to private school. We have to just

865
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 1: give Dr Fauci, yes, yes, yes, fou yes probs. I

866
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,240
Speaker 1: don't care if you believe the pandemic is a hoax.

867
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 1: We have been through hell and Dr Fauci has remained steady, steadfast, factual.

868
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 1: And I mean, for the most part, it's crazy, like

869
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 1: they would say, like, oh, um, I predict that in

870
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 1: three months the numbers are going to skyrocket, and we're

871
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,880
Speaker 1: sitting there like, oh whatever, And then come three months

872
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: and the number of skyrockets. So like I feel like

873
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 1: everything that they said would happen happen. So he's a

874
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 1: reasonable person. He is a reasonable person. And we got

875
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,319
Speaker 1: to give it up to our new president, Joe Biden's yes,

876
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: just for the sake of thank you for being here, Yes,

877
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 1: thank you. If I find myself at this point in

878
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 1: a reasonable way, not having to stalk CNN anymore to

879
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 1: find out the bad news, I can actually go to

880
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 1: bed feeling kind of safe and secure about the world.

881
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: I knew that life was crazy when I would literally

882
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 1: be listening to Seeing In in my car, like I

883
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,719
Speaker 1: would be driving and turn to Seeing In and it

884
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 1: was like almost like comforting to hear those voices that

885
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: I've been listening to, like all day, all night. And

886
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 1: now I don't have to do that. Yes, I mean,

887
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 1: you can't if you want to, but I feel like

888
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to stop there. I'm sorry, don't if

889
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: your radings go down, it's not our fault, it's yes.

890
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,439
Speaker 1: So because the world is a little bit better, yes,

891
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: and we're feeling a little bit more secure about our leadership.

892
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 1: And then now we have our shady person of the year.

893
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 1: And oh, she'd been shady, shady, shady, shady who this

894
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: thing been shady? And I don't even like to say

895
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 1: her name because I just want her to go away,

896
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 1: but that she needs to go. Sister girl, COVID girl,

897
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 1: that sa coronavirus better known as coronavirus, Miss coronavirus. You

898
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: so shady, Oh you shady, And I'm gonna need for

899
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 1: you to leave, okay, So get your shady tail up

900
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,759
Speaker 1: out of here. We are done with you. She has

901
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 1: out warned her welcome yes, she's never welcome never. No. No.

902
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,320
Speaker 1: So we we've had, we've had enough of you. We're done.

903
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 1: And um, I think our reasonably shady combination is a

904
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:23,399
Speaker 1: good one because I think Algie and Biden can get

905
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:26,920
Speaker 1: rid of our shady were We're going to be back

906
