00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 2: I'm a ranch girl, but I was like blue cheese.

51
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 3: Yes, I put blue cheese on my wings, my salads

52
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 3: because so at one point I was doing Keto. So

53
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 3: blue cheese is good for Keto when you're doing the

54
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 3: Keto diet.

55
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: Oh, difference between blue cheese and.

56
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 3: Ranch, it's just it just goes more with like Keto

00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: type meals, you know what I mean.

58
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 1: So I guess I won't be Keto. I gotta lose

59
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: a lot of weight, but I won't be Keto. So

60
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: go ahead, step into the kitchen. Show us how you

61
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 1: make your fried chicken. What you do first?

62
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 2: All right? Us through it? What's the first thing? You

63
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: got your chicken role?

64
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 3: So what I'm gonna do is I'm season the chicken.

65
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 3: I also season the flour, but I'm gonna start seasoning

66
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 3: the chicken. And I don't measure nothing. When I feel

67
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 3: like it's seasoned enough, I stop. That's how I usually work.

68
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,399
Speaker 3: So that's how my mother taught me. And I'm trying

69
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 3: to remember.

70
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: That's so funny. The last time you cook this was when.

71
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 3: It's been a minute. So it's been a little minute.

72
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 2: How often would you be doing fried chicken?

73
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 3: I love fried chicken. So yeah, so now I just

74
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: buy it usually, but probably three times a week.

75
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, wow, three times a week back in a

76
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: day or now back in the day.

77
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I'm not. I'm not eating fried chicken three

78
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 3: times a week now maybe twice, but that's hilarious. Yeah.

79
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: If you ask my daughter what does she want to eat,

80
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: it'll be real chicken, not chicken nuggets, real.

81
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 3: Chicken, real chicken. Does she like fried chicken?

82
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: She does, Okay, she does, But it's just funny to

83
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: hear because most people, if you're fast food on the road,

84
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna offer your kids chicken nuggets. She is very

85
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: adamant about it being real chicken. Okay, it's three years old,

86
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: real chicken from the car seat.

87
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: Okay.

88
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: But all right, So you're seasoning up the meat with

89
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: scarlet powder, onion powder, lais, yes, and pepper and pepper awesome.

90
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 2: And then you haven't put the buttermilk in yet.

91
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 3: Not yet. So I'm gonna put the butter milk, the

92
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 3: buttermilk on here after I season it up a little bit.

93
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 3: And then what I do is, after that, I'm gonna

94
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 3: dip it in the flour. Well, I'm seasing the flour.

95
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna just it's okay gloves. Yeah, I'm what

Speaker 3: He was working at a city a place called City Sports,

127
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 3: and then he started getting into comedy because of community college.

128
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 3: Of course we met at community college and then he

129
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 3: got into comedy, and then from there I started working

130
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 3: for the phone company. He started doing comedy. I just

131
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 3: started going to sporting all the shows and began making

132
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 3: more fried chicken.

133
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,119
Speaker 1: And then when does he's doing comedy? You're not yet

134
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: doing comedy at that time or no.

135
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 3: But here's the thing, a lot of people don't know.

136
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 3: I got class clown in high school. So I've always

137
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 3: been doing comedy my whole life, like always making my

138
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: family laugh, always watching it and studying it, probably since

139
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: I was like nine years old, honestly, because my parents

140
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 3: all they used to do is play Richard pryor Fred Stanford, Moms,

141
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 3: maybe Dick Gregory, like they always were playing albums in

142
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 3: the house. They would send me upstairs sometimes, or they

143
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 3: would think that they sending me upstairs, and I would

144
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 3: be at the top of the stairs listening to all

145
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 3: of raunchy comedy, listening to all of that. Yeah.

146
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: So, now when he's pursuing comedy and this is you

147
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: have a passion for, I'm guessing at the time, So

148
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: what is going on at the time when he's doing

149
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: comedy and you're are you like playing? Are you just

150
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: supportive girlfriend? Do you know what you want to do

151
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: at that time?

152
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 3: So, honestly, I was in school for acting and for

153
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 3: theater and drama at the time. I did not realize

154
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 3: that I was going to be doing comedy at all.

155
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: I always was like into comedic movies, but didn't know

156
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 3: that I would eventually be doing stand up. Actually, I

157
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 3: didn't start stand up until I moved to La.

158
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, so you're going to school for acting. How's

159
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: your acting doing while you're like struggling actress and he's

160
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: struggling comedy. You guys have this commonality, I'm guessing funny.

161
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 3: Yeah right, Yeah, that's what drew us to each other

162
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 3: to begin with in the first place, because we were

163
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 3: always laughing and cracking on each other. Jawning, as they

164
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 3: say in Philly, is when you constantly bagging somebody. So

165
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 3: that's what I always did, practical joker, always doing stuff

166
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 3: like that. So yeah, that's what pretty much probably why

167
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 3: we ended up together in the first place.

168
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so watching that grind close up, you still wanted

169
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: to pursue it. Watching it close up, you get the

170
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: front row seat of like, how hard it is?

171
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 3: Right, I never thought it was hard. Okay, Yeah, of course,

172
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 3: when you love something, the grind of it, it's just okay,

173
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 3: this is what makes you better anyway. But if you

174
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 3: love something, it's okay, this is just the journey. This

175
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 3: is what it's going to be. And of course there

176
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 3: was some days where you know, financially, but when you're

177
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 3: having fun, I don't think it really matters.

178
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean to some degree.

179
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: Now you guys, and you guys had a family too,

180
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean, I mean you guys have a family.

181
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 2: Sorry I'm trying.

182
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 1: I mean we have ki who this little pivotal process

183
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: of your story. So you guys are having a family.

184
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 1: You guys have a family. Are you guys are still struggling?

185
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 3: No, sir, So when we moved to California. He had

186
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 3: got a deal, so by then it was a little

187
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 3: less of a struggle.

188
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 2: You guys didn't have kids yet.

189
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 3: No, we didn't have kids yet.

190
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: Okay, So you moved from Wow.

191
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, from Philly to Callie together. We weren't married. And

192
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 3: my family, of course, did not like that.

193
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 2: But I was like, listen, and you guys dropped out

194
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 2: of college to do that.

195
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, we dropped out of We knew we wasn't supposed

196
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 3: to be in school.

197
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: Okay, so you guys packed up and moved. Oh, I

198
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 1: know your family wasn't happy.

199
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they weren't. And especially I come from my

200
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 3: family's very religious and my grandmother was a minister. Two

201
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 3: uncles or ministers, three aunts ministers. So I was raised

202
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 3: you don't move in together before marriage, and YadA ya, YadA.

203
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 3: Of course I got all of that back last too.

204
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: How long were you together before you guys decided to

205
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: pack up?

206
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 3: And it was about three and a half years. Three

207
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 3: and a half years, so you four years? Actually, he

208
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 3: gets it.

209
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 2: What so he got holding.

210
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 3: So back in the day, there was these things called

211
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 3: holding deals, and so you would get holding deals. And

212
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 3: this is when there was like big money like NBC ABC.

213
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 3: So he got a holding deal and so we took

214
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 3: some of that money to move out here. And then

215
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 3: I also was working for Ladelphia, which is this company,

216
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 3: and for me at that age back then, making that

217
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 3: kind of money, it was a big deal. I had

218
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 3: a four oh one K and so I dipped into

219
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 3: my four oh one K and was like, Okay, I'm

220
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,719
Speaker 3: taking some of this money out and I'm using this

221
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 3: to move. I actually packed up. I had a grand

222
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 3: Cherokee at the time, cause I had a little bit

223
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 3: of money back then. When I got turned twenty one,

224
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 3: I got some case money. I was able to stack

225
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 3: some of that and get a truck and that was

226
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 3: actually the vehicle that drove him back and forth to

227
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 3: a lot of comedy shows too, cause he didn't have

228
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 3: a car. Wow. Yeah, So I had the car and

229
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 3: it was fun though. It was just like it's my nature,

230
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 3: Like my mom and dad has been married almost fifty

231
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 3: five years.

232
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 2: Wow, and so I.

233
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 3: Watch how my mom holds the family down, and that's

234
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,439
Speaker 3: what she did, so I just get it naturally from her. Yeah.

235
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: So at this time, your parents are in your ears?

236
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: Are you starting again?

237
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 2: His ears?

238
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 1: Like yo, I moved across country where you know Bonnie

239
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: and Clyde. Are you gonna put a ring on it?

240
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: Does that start to hit in your head? Or is

241
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: he feeling the pressure because now you guys are thugging

242
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: it in LA? And do you have any friends also?

243
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah? So we have been coming back and forth

244
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 3: to LA for different things, visiting because he would get

245
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 3: booked for jobs and so we were coming back and forth.

246
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 3: So I had made friends. So when we got here,

247
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 3: of course, and the comedy world is pretty small, you

248
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 3: met people and stuff like that. But my family, no,

249
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: because they know that I'm pretty independent too, and I

250
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 3: don't believe you should pressure a man to do anything.

251
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 3: You let a man do what a man wants to do.

252
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 3: As soon as you try to pressure a man. No,

253
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 3: you're not pressuring me in the you know what I'm saying?

254
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 3: Like he was the one I honestly was low key.

255
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 3: I don't know I want to get married, you know

256
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 3: what I mean. I don't know if necessarily I want

257
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 3: to be married, But one days we're going to get married.

258
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 3: So we went and we got married in Vegas. It

259
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 3: was we got married in Vegas. I should have known. Shit,

260
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 3: wasn't gonna work? Because no, I'm just thinking that, and

261
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 3: I think back, I'm laughing because why my bouquet was

262
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 3: like this? The probably had three flowers in the bouquet?

263
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 2: Was it like Elvis? Who did it? And all that?

264
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 3: It wasn't Elvis, but it might as well have been Elvis. Okay.

265
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 3: My wedding dress was from Express. Okay, first of all,

266
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 3: I wasn't even gonna wear a wedding dress and my

267
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 3: mom and was like, you need to go get a dress,

268
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 3: and I was like do I have to?

269
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 2: Like so what about it? At that?

270
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: Looking back, you saw that set said it wasn't gona work.

271
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 1: It wasn't the three flower bouquet.

272
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 3: Looking in hindsight, I'm thinking like, damn, Okay, Tori, you

273
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 3: should have been a little bit more. Wasn't a bigger

274
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 3: wedding or But I just always maybe that's the clown

275
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 3: in me. Maybe why I was thinking, we're just profession

276
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,719
Speaker 3: our love for each other, so that's really you know

277
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 3: what I mean? Yeah, but no, it should have been

278
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 3: done a little better.

279
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: A lot of people spend a lot of money on

280
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 1: on weddings. That usually doesn't dictate where it's out. It

281
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: dictates some of the death you started.

282
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 3: That is true.

283
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: But okay, so you guys get married a couple of

284
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: years into LA or.

285
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we get married and about a year later.

286
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 3: And this is what pissed me off too, because I

287
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 3: didn't want kids until I was about thirty five, and

288
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 3: then I ended up getting pregnant and I had just

289
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 3: got a sports car. Okay, he had bought me a

290
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 3: sports car for my birthday at BMW. Yeah. I dis

291
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,719
Speaker 3: was like my dream car and he got me my

292
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 3: dream car is twenty six. And so I'm whipping around

293
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 3: LA with my convertible Z four and the next thing

294
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 3: I know, I'm pregnant and I'm like, can't fucking have

00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: guessing that you guys are in your early twenties, money

315
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: is starting to roll. He's gifting cars. I mean, yeah,

316
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 1: in my twenties, ain't no dude ever give me a car.

317
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: I'd be lucky if they don't give me the bill

318
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: at Burger King.

319
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 3: I was a brat. I was a little bit of it.

320
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 3: I also did spoiling too, you know what I'm saying.

321
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 3: So it was reciprocal and he knew that was my

322
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 3: dream car. I actually was getting my hair done and

323
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 3: he pulled up to the hair salon with a red

324
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 3: bow on it.

325
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 2: It was like Jersey so cute.

326
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it.

00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So at the time, what are you doing

328
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,040

Speaker 1: soul Plane.

330
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 3: I think this is yeah, this is around soul Plane era.

331
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 3: I was actually training, so I was doing it and

332
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 3: I had booked some jobs. I booked national commercials at

334
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 3: we didn't do a commercial before that, just yet. But

335
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 3: I had did Supermarket Sweep. Do you remember that show?

336
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 2: I remember that?

337
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 3: Okay, I had booked that. I booked this show on

338
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 3: E called Screenplay. So I was working too, but really

339
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 3: mainly training, like with how it's studying with Howard Fine

340
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 3: and Leslie Kahns, Mike Pointer, doing everything that you should

341
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 3: to be up on your craft so you can go

342
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 3: and do auditions and stuff.

343
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then but then the family comes along and

344
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: then slow you down a little bit.

345
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 3: It did. Yeah, when I got pregnant, it slowed me

346
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 3: down a lot because I was used to always going

347
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 3: out and hanging and that's what we did. We would

348
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 3: go party a lot. When I got pregnant, it was

349
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 3: just like damn, man, I can't drink either. I had

350
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 3: to so up real quick.

351
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

352
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, so change things.

353
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 2: And then you had the kids are how far apart?

354
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 3: So my daughter was born in two thousand and five,

355
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 3: my son was born in two thousand and seven, so

356
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 3: there's two and a half.

357
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 2: So you were like really mominent.

358
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, okay, okay, yeah, So all this is going on,

359
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 1: you're still pursuing acting. At what point do you start

360
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: to lean this. We're gonna risk Okay, y'all, we're gonna

361
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: risk it. I already smoked up the kitchen. If you

362
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: see me stuttering, it's because, okay, it's about to go down.

363
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: Cucumbers, should we do this?

364
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 2: Go ahead? Did you season all of them already?

365
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 3: I seasoned? Yep, And this flower is seasoned. I probably

366
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 3: put a little bit more seasoned in the flower.

367
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: So do you have to heat up first?

368
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 3: You have to heat it up?

369
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 2: All right, here we go. Okay, I want to hear this.

370
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: What I'm trying to capture just so your notry is

371
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: when the I don't want to put myself in your shoes,

372
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: but I definitely am. You know your ex husband, but

373
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: you're now ex husband. He's pursuing this comedy. Yeah, becomes

374
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: this massive success. You're taking care of home, you're holding

375
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: down the family. You also have dreams. What I'm trying

376
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: to capture is now with you pursuing comedy and you

377
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: knowing that, hey, deep down I had this pursuit of comedy.

378
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: Was there a part of you that was holding back

379
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: that pursuit because one of you guys was already doing it.

380
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 3: Oh for sure, Yeah, for sure?

381
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 2: Or did you ever talk to him about it at all?

382
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,959
Speaker 3: Definitely did not talk to him about doing stand up

383
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 3: as One day his friend Jay Okerson, his girlfriend tried it,

384
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 3: and I overheard him saying, I wish she would ever

385
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 3: try comedy. She better not, So I was like, oh, okay,

386
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 3: but I've been. I was studying it with him. I

387
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 3: was going to every comedy club. I would be in

388
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 3: the back like, hey, you know writing stuff down, Oh,

389
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 3: you should try it like this, and like not even

390
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 3: realizing that's what I was doing.

391
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 1: But that's a and that's a what you're talking about,

392
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: and that's a real emotion and real life. Anybody in

393
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 1: your shoes would have overheard that and been like, oh,

394
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: because if I was, if I wanted to be an

395
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: actress in my husband wanted to be an It's almost

396
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 1: like the first one who says it own sword owns

397
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: it in a way depending on your relationship, but most relationships,

398
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: it does get a little weird if you're both pursuing

399
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 1: the same exact goal.

400
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 3: So I guess, like you ever see the show as

401
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 3: miss marvelous. The life is marvelous, Mabel.

402
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 2: I think that I didn't. I didn't see it, but

403
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 2: I've heard.

404
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 3: It, Okay. So it's funny because it's like that in

405
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 3: a sense. And like I said, I didn't see stand

406
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 3: up per se in my future. Always acting. Acting has

407
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 3: been my passion since I was six years old. I

408
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 3: told my mother I was going to be out in

409
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 3: Hollywood acting, and I did school plays, I did church plays.

410
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 3: That's what I always did. That's why we met in

411
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 3: theater arts class in college. But stand Up I did

412
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 3: watch it and was around it since I was a

413
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 3: little kid too.

414
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: So it was almost then you get heavily ingrained and

415
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: it just being right. So from that point, at what

416
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 1: point do you say, Okay, I'm gonna say I want

417
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 1: to do this and say it openly because I'm sure

418
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: it wasn't eating.

419
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 2: At you a little bit like curiosity.

420
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're helping, You're helping in the behind the scenes, right, yeah,

421
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: of course.

422
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 3: And I would be watching and studying and I would

423
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 3: see people doing certain I was like, I can do it,

424
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 3: like I'm I'm ready, I want to do it, like

425
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,919
Speaker 3: I was itching for years to do it, and I

426
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 3: already had stuff written down. I had a journal of

427
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 3: jokes already.

428
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no one knows about this.

429
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 1: No, yeah, that's a that's a reality. So then what

430
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 1: happens when and you decide, okay, I'm coming. I had

431
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: to use this, but for lack of a better word,

432
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: they're coming out of the closet saying, hey, surprised, this

433
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: is something I really want to.

434
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 2: Do, because it takes a lot of balls to do too.

435
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: In your situation, your situation, it has to be taken

436
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 1: a lot of balls to be like, ah, I'm sorry,

437
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna go after what I want.

438
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 3: Balls and liquor.

439
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: So take me back to that moment when you just

440
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: you say, fuck it, I'm gonna I'm gonna do it.

441
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 3: So my cousin Darnell at the time, he was living

442
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 3: with us, and he knew he actually he learned about

443
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 3: me wanting to do it, and so he was just like, Cuz,

444
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 3: so when you're gonna do it, what are you waiting on?

445
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 3: When there was the hold up? And I was like,

446
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 3: clearly you know what the hold up is. But he's okay,

447
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 3: so how much long are you gonna wait? And so

448
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 3: we go down we found out about an open mic

449
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 3: at the High Comedy Club in North Hollywood.

450
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 2: And you guys are together? Are not together? When you

451
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 2: decide we were together?

452
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 3: He was off shooting a movie though in I think

453
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,679
Speaker 3: it was Prague or somewhere I can't remember. Yeah, And

454
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,360
Speaker 3: so I was just like, you know what.

455
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 2: He's gone, I'm gonna do. Nobody's gonna know thing.

456
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 3: But everybody knew. See, I didn't even realize how big

457
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 3: we were, you know what I'm saying. I'm just still thinking, okay,

458
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 3: girl from Philadelphia. Boy, I never really realized, like, no,

459
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 3: your husband's in movies, he's done comedy specials, and you

460
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. So I'm just thinking, Okay. To me,

461
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 3: it's he's always just low keva bastard.

462
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 2: That's yeah.

463
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 3: First stage name was yeah, and I'm like, you gotta

464
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 3: change that. So that's in my mind. It's just always that,

465
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 3: you know. So I'm so when I get on stage,

466
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 3: as soon as I get off stage, my phone's blowing up,

467
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 3: and it was.

468

Speaker 3: so everybody in Latare so it's Kevin Tori.

474
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so what are you thinking when you're blows up?

475
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 3: I'm not thinking that. Somebody told him already, you know

476
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 3: what I mean. So because I'm like all right, So

477
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,200

Speaker 3: I've always wanted to do. I love it. This is

482
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 3: what I'm going to do. And I said, it's going

483
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 3: to also help me with my acting. It's going to

484
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,480

486
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,480

Speaker 3: he became supportive. I opened up for him. A few times.

490
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 3: He tested me. I'll say that we were in Tennessee

491
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 3: because I had been asking like, when you're gonna let me?

492

530
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: day one. You are doing community service at the I

531
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: think a Christmas event, okay, and then the second time

532
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: I saw you at Chris Spencer show, it's really sweet. Yeah,

533
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: so I'm really happy to have you. So you're pursuing

534
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 1: this comedy. You guys are still married and the relationship

535
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: is fine. No pumping of the heads during this whole process.

536
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 1: No uncomfortable because now you guys are pursuing almost the

537
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: same goals.

538
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 3: I think you know, there was a time where it

539
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 3: started getting uncomfortable because he's used to me, like I

540
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 3: was all about him. So sometimes when your mate, when

541
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 3: you're used to your mate, being all about you, and

542
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 3: then one day they're not. Because that's when I was

543
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,199
Speaker 3: like stepping into my own. I was like, okay, I

544
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 3: gave you. I told him I was going to give

545
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 3: him a son. I gave him his son, gave him

546
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 3: his daughter.

547
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 1: What had happened, you would have had another girl, You

548
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: would have still given him a son.

549
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 3: No, I knew because he thought our daughter was going

550
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 3: to be a boy. I said, no, it's going to

551
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 3: be a girl first, and then I'm going to give

552
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 3: you your son. That's how it just got. I'm very

553
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 3: close to the career.

554
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 2: He was like, Jesus, bless me with this son.

555
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 3: God speaking to me since I was a kid. So

556
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 3: I have that like one on one connection with the

557
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 3: man upstairs, especially beings at all my family, the prayers

558
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 3: that my grandmother has prayed over me for years, my

559
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 3: family like super in tune.

560
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,160
Speaker 1: So he so, you give him a son, and you've

561
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 1: been a good loyal wife, and now it's you know what,

562
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to take some time to do what I

563
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: want to do, which yeah, every normal feeling, any human

564
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,239
Speaker 1: being with a pulse would want to do.

565
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 3: And I just feel like I'm like I'm at an

566
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 3: age now where Okay, I've done some small things. It's

567
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 3: time for me to really step into it and do

568
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 3: some bigger things.

569
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: And I'm sure watching his path was it inspiring to say, yes,

570
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: I can do it inspiring.

571
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something, even though we are divorced,

572
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 3: when we went through it pretty it was rough when

573
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 3: it first happened. I wouldn't trade anything in because one

574
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 3: thing that I did learn was work ethic. Why he's

575
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 3: so successful the people that come for him and at

576
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 3: the end of the day are still my family. That's

577
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 3: my kid's father. When people come for him or say that,

578
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 3: I'm like, that's bullshit. This man worked his ass off.

579
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 3: I've seen how hard he works and why he is

580
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,439
Speaker 3: where he is at today.

581
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a militant work ethic.

582
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 3: Right, Oh my god, you have you have to And

583
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 3: then his mother rests in peace. Nancy, that was my heart.

584
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 3: She was just so by the book and just had

585
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 3: him on track and just had him like she was.

586
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: She instilled some crazy level of discipline early. Yeah, definitely,

587
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: and she was like, I'm not letting this one right

588
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: here is They're gonna slip through the cracks by all

589
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 1: means necessary.

590
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 2: So you got to watch that.

591
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: So you're pursuing this and keV starts to notice, Hey,

592
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,360
Speaker 1: you know what, goals and focus has changed.

593
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,719
Speaker 3: And so I think it became a little issue. That's

594
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,479
Speaker 3: what I believe, outside of other things that were going on.

595
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 3: But at the time, I was just so dedicated to

596
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,479
Speaker 3: also me and then my kids, and I was just like,

597
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 3: I've been mom in it. I'm out here doing this.

598
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 3: I just want something for me. And once I got

599
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 3: locked in and realized like, we're really good at this,

600
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 3: I'm getting booked, people are paying me for this, I'm like, oh, okay,

601
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 3: that's a great feeling. So I'm like, WHOA, Like, this

602
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 3: is what I want to do. I really want to

603
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 3: do this on top of my acting.

604
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

605
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, So that's what happened. I'm not going to fry

606
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 3: these two.

607
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 1: So during the I hate to talk about the divorce

608
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: and all that, it's still there was. It was a

609
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 1: little bit of a painful divorce as all breaking. Sorry,

610
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: they're never likery well formally agree.

611
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 2: On this split. At this point when all of this

612
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 2: is going on, are you.

613
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: Business wise now you're both booking, you're both doing cop comedy.

614
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: Does that cause a little bit of a hindrance in

615
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 1: your career, or are you afraid it's going to cause

616
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: a hindrance in your career.

617
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 3: I actually I had took time off because I was

618
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 3: going through a lot, like emotionally and stuff. So more

619
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 3: so I took time off so I was more so

620
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 3: just focused on me and the children at the time.

621
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 3: I would get like little auditions and little gigs here

622
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 3: and there, but I was just like I couldn't be funny.

623
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 3: I didn't feel like being funny.

624
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: That's a very difficult time. Yeah, so comic, your art

625
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: reflects life. You're going up on stage. That's a tough time.

626
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 3: And I did try, and it was bitter. I was bitter.

627
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 3: It was just like like, Okay, maybe that joke ain't

628
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 3: ready yet, because it ain't funny, Tori. It's a little

629
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 3: fuck you, it ain't ready.

630
00:28:58,760 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

631
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 3: So yeah, so I just decided. I was like, you

632
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 3: know what, I took a seat and was just like, okay,

633
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 3: let me just get me together spiritually and mentally. And

634
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 3: that's what I did.

635
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 2: How long did it take you to take that break?

636
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 3: It took a couple of years, just soul searching and

637
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 3: not saying. It took a couple of years to get

638
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 3: fully together. But you know, when you're with someone since

639
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 3: you're twenty years old and then you break up at

640
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 3: thirty three, especially all through my twenties and my thirties

641
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 3: and movie, that's a chunk of time.

642
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a huge investment, especially if you're married. You

643
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: come from a family. You said your parents are still together.

644
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: You like, man, I did everything in the book. I

645
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: would imagine it sounds like you did everything in the

646
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: book to make it work.

647
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 3: And you know what, I won't. I wasn't perfect either,

648
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 3: So I will say there's things I probably could have

649
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 3: done differently when you're young, when you're that Like my

650
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 3: daughter is nineteen right now. I look at her like

651
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 3: I can't believe I was in a relationship at nineteen

652
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 3: moving married, Like what how did that even happen? You

653
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. I'm just yeah, yeah, yeah.

654
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: So now you're out on your own and keV is

655
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 1: extremely successful running laps around the sun.

656
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 2: Right now? How does it? How does the inner you.

657
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,959
Speaker 1: Feel about like you're pursuing your dreams, you have your

658
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,959
Speaker 1: ex husband orperating around the sun a hundred times? What

659
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: are the motions like you where you're at right now

660
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: watching all of this.

661
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 3: I was annoyed everywhere, just like I can't escape them. God,

662
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 3: are you playing a trick on me? Yeah, it's just

663
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 3: but it worked because it's in one of my comedy bits.

664
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 2: I heard of it. Yeah, it was. It was very funny.

665
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 2: It was very funny.

666
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

667
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 2: I don't want to spoil it.

668
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: But one of the jokes you said that night really

669
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 1: about your kids being richer than you are.

670
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 3: Ye, I'm the one that slept with a midget for

671
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 3: y'all to like.

672
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought that was really funny.

673
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,719
Speaker 3: It's the truth, you know what I'm saying. Of course

674
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 3: they are richer than me. But I love I'm very blessed,

675
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 3: So I don't want anybody to think I'm not blessed.

676
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 3: But I am blessed, super blessed, and continue to work

677
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 3: hard so I can be more blessed. And I like

678
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 3: to give back a lot more. A lot of things

679
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 3: that I work super hard for is to give back. Yeah.

680
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: Now, do you guys collaborate? Do you see future collaborations?

681
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: How does that work with your guys? Whole relationship?

682
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 3: We did it. I did do House Husbands the final season.

683
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 3: I did do that, but as far as collabing. As

684
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 3: of right now, I don't see that, and I don't

685
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 3: see it right now, it's not in hindsight. But who

686
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 3: knows a couple of years later it might change.

687
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you guys, in this industry, it's like a

688
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: very relationship industry. People ask me all the time, get

689
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 1: my friends with everybody. I'm like, I actually don't know

690
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: everyone that's on the show personally, but a lot of

691
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: the relationships are what put different people in the room

692
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: when you're going after auditions or anything. Do you ever

693
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: want to pick up the phone call and be like, hey, keV,

694
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: can you assist with this? Or are you just no?

695
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 1: I gotta do it the old school. I hate when

00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: people do that, Like you you have to connect, just

Speaker 2: It's weird. It's very bird for you.

699
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 3: It's very weird because some people are scared to work

700
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 3: with me because they think if they work with me,

701

720
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 2: Let's talk about that. How did that come about?

721
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: Because Cat Williams is also, need I say, like, literally

722
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: the best of the best comics on the earth, living comics. Yeah,

723
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: I don't trying to think in my head, who could

724
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: be no One? Okay, good, good, yeah, different, He's a

725
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: different type of comic, but cat by fault. I think

726
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle is a great storyteller comic. I think Cat

727
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: Williams just.

728
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 2: He could probably seize.

729
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of things I can tell you.

730
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 3: It's his voice, his stature, presence. He's fearless.

731
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 2: He's fearless.

732
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: You have to be I think his I think what

733
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: makes a lot of comics unique is their perspective, like

734
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: how they taking information and how they spin it back

735
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: out because you're taking Comics can take really serious, serious

736
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: topics and then they turn it into something.

737
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 2: Like whoa, I never even thought of that.

738
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: And then Cat Williams has a very good The way

739
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: his information is coming in and the way it's going

740
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: out is very right.

741
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:17,879
Speaker 2: It's very deep.

742
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 1: Tell me about how that whole Cat Williams going on

743
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:21,760

00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 3: I usually have a certain thing to drain the chicken.

747
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 3: That's another thing I forgot to tell you, but it's okay.

748
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 3: So I've known Cat for twenty something years. Another thing

749
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 3: people don't know. Cat used to come through Philly to

750
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:43,399
Speaker 3: a place called the laugh House, and so I met

751
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 3: Kat when I lived in Philly. I've hung out with Cat,

752
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 3: paray with Cat, Me and Cat has done two movies together.

753
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,359
Speaker 3: It wasn't just oh, toy's just going on tour with Cat.

754
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 3: Me and Cat have a relationship.

755
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 2: To be on tour with gun, you said, you have

756
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 2: to be really funny.

757
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I was getting at more so, was that

758
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 1: like a defining moment to say, Kat Williams is like

759
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 1: putting me on tour with him? Is I don't know

760
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:10,800
Speaker 1: the right terminology, more like an accolade of I've arrived.

761
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 3: He did. That wasn't the first time I went performed

762
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 3: with cats. See that's another thing. I performed for Cat

763
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 3: at the Microsoft Theater in front of twenty five thousand people,

764
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 3: and that was the first time he gave me an

765
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 3: opportunity and blessed me literally like with ten K for

766
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,360
Speaker 3: seven minutes of material. He's always been a person that

767
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 3: looks out for females and puts females on the stage,

768
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 3: and so for him to do that, it was just

769
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 3: like thank you. And then we had already talked about

770
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 3: me going and doing a couple of dates on the tour,

771
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 3: and then when everything dropped, it was it looked a

772
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 3: certain type of way, but it's yo. It looks this way,

773
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 3: but no, that was already planned.

774
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, but how did it feel to be able to

775
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: open for a cat?

776
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:56,560

Speaker 3: Dion Crispencer trying to think, who else.

794
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: Do you think your road is as hard as the

795
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: average comic.

796
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 2: Coming in? It's harder, it's harder.

797
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,880
Speaker 3: It's a lot harder. I get scrutinized a lot. You

798
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 3: know a lot of people. I can walk on a

799
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 3: stage and I see some men doing this, Like even

800
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 3: when the Cat Williams thing happened and I got my

801
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 3: own tour out of that too. Some men would just

802
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 3: come for whatever reason just to like low.

803
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 2: Key just hate wow.

804
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 3: Oh yeah they arms cross and yeah, make me funny?

805
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,879
Speaker 3: Are you better be funny? Make me laugh?

806
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 2: Yep. I could see that people coming and being like, okay,

807
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 2: let's see what she.

808
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 3: Could judge it.

809
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, just straight judging, which is definitely a lot harder.

810
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 3: It's hard so when people say stuff like, oh, she

811
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 3: only got this because her last name. Okay, but I

812
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 3: still have to be funny. Yeah, I still have to

813
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 3: go on stage and make people laugh and telling jokes

814
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:40,280
Speaker 3: is not easy.

815
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 2: Does that ever make does it? Now?

816
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,839
Speaker 1: I know you don't regret your family and all of that,

817
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: but does it ever make you send? I feel like, damn,

818
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: I wish it wasn't like this. I wish I could

819
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: have had an organic clean slate.

820
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 3: Sometimes I do. I do wish that sometimes like dag

821
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 3: I would be I feel like I would get more

822
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 3: opportunities because there's a lot of things that I see

823
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 3: where I'm like, I could have had that role, I

824
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 3: could have did that. But then I'm like, but it

825
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 3: wasn't for me, So I know my road is going

826
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 3: to be longer, my journey is different. But I'm also

827
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 3: I'm more of an independent. I finally got a conglomerate

828
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:21,359
Speaker 3: behind me. I just got to deal with Urban one

829
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,960

830
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 3: Tory Hart.

831
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:28,879
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, a big deal.

832
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 3: It's super big. I actually just filmed four episodes. I

833
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 3: gotta go back to Atlanta. I'm filming. It's in Atlanta

834
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:38,839
Speaker 3: the whole cause I just got to show up. They

835
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 3: have the production, everything is laid out for me, built

836
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 3: my set, everything. I just show up.

837
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 2: That's nice.

838
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:48,439
Speaker 3: But I'm asking some tough, hard questions and I ain't

839
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 3: letting up on nobody when they come.

840
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 2: Through tell us about the show.

841
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:56,479
Speaker 3: So it's Brutally Honest with Tory Hart. If you don't

842
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 3: want to get questioned, then don't want you know to

843
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 3: because I'm coming with those questions like the personal and everything,

844
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 3: personal business, spirituality.

845
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 2: What type of guests are on the show, all kinds. Yeah.

846
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 3: I just was just there and I did Neo's actually

847
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 3: ex fiance Manetta oh okay, okay, and I asked her

848
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 3: questions about how she feels with him having three and

849
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 3: four cocky bonds now.

850
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:28,879
Speaker 1: And they're girlfriends, right, they're like.

851
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 3: Girlfriends, conckybines. Whatever.

852
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: My husband always asks me this, what do you think

853
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:34,800
Speaker 1: about Neil? I'm like, I don't really care this, I

854
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 1: don't care. We're limited in a society where men forget

855
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: what women are actually bringing to the table.

856
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 2: Oh you know what I'm saying, Yeah, we're not just

857
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 2: bringing sex. Guys.

858
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, they forget that a woman is your rib for

859
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: a reason.

860
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 3: Right.

861
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,879
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying us down to that you're

862
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: walking away with a lot less than you could be

863
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: walking away with.

864
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 2: And that's just my personal opinion.

865
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,439
Speaker 3: And here's the thing to each its own. If that's

866
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,839
Speaker 3: what makes you happy, do that, and if you got

867
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,439
Speaker 3: people willing participate, that are willing to go with.

868
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: It, then yeah, yeah yeah, by all means I say

869
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 1: to people like, he's paying for his peace. Yeah, because

870
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you be with a guy, you messing

871
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: with a guy. You like him, he has a cute smile, successful,

872
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: it's very easy to like and love that. But you know,

873
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: when it comes time to be like, I want you

874
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: to only want me, that's where the paper comes into

875
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: to this is the deal that you you know, I

876
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 1: told you.

877
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 2: Upfront what it is.

878
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I really believe he's That's where the money

879
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: comes in. Whereas you know what, I'm gonna choose not

880
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: to say anything though I feel this type of way

881
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 1: because the money is here to sue that part of me,

882
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 1: because I just I don't I personally don't believe women

883
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,919
Speaker 1: are built like that. Oh to have several I'm gonna

884
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 1: share me and three of my homegirls are gonna share.

885
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:47,760
Speaker 3: Oh.

886
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,479
Speaker 2: Now there's always exception. The royal shout out to Michael B. Jordan,

887
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,320
Speaker 2: because I really think that I could debate it for

888
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 2: Michael B.

889
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 3: Michael B.

890
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 2: I said all the time with this show, it's terrible,

891
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 2: that is hilarious.

892
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:02,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be I think I would get in line

893
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: with the amount of right amount of paper. I could

894
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 1: be quiet, okay, you know what I'm saying. I could

895
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 1: be like, you know what, it's Michael B.

896
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 2: I get it. The whole universe probably wants this dude.

897
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 2: A lot of people say it up.

898
00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 3: I don't. He's not Michael B. Ain't. That ain't what

899
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:23,440

900
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 2: Be like anyday? You smile my way?

901
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I know there's always some guy that you'd

902
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 1: be like, you know what, for a lot of money,

903
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,839
Speaker 1: maybe maybe I have to turn the other cheat.

904
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think who that guy would be for me.

905
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 2: More. Michael B would be it. Michael Be.

906

908
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 1: be a question.

909
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 2: Well it's not a whole past. I'm open. But if

Speaker 2: he comes on this show forgetting my whole team, forget it.

911
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:01,520

916
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,080

920
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 1: for All the guy has to do is open his

921
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 1: mouth and it could completely change your mind. If he

922
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 1: came down talking like a valley girl or something, I

923
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:29,520
