It's now becoming a 56 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 3: situation where some of you guys are going so far 57 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 3: in your comments, where you are making threats of bodily 58 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 3: harm to people, where you are now attacking kids, and 59 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 3: enough is enough. I don't know what has happened when 60 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 3: it comes to the Housewives culture, and it's the culture 61 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 3: of some of the fans. Because this podcast has been 62 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 3: a huge hit, and I thank you my brain drops 63 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 3: so much for making this podcast a huge hit. I've 64 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 3: now even been subjected to some very mean things on Twitter. 65 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 3: But because I'm a grown ass man. I don't give 66 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: two fucks which I'll say about me. So you're wasting 67 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 3: your time tweeting me, you're wasting your time talking about me. 68 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 4: I don't care. 69 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 3: But what I have even experienced is if I say 70 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 3: my opinion about a housewife's show and stating my opinion 71 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 3: about what I'm watching on television when it comes to 72 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: a particular housewife, this particular person's fan base. 73 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 4: Feels the need to just even read me. 74 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 3: But again, because I have such thick skin, I don't care. 75 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 4: But I'm also not fourteen years old. 76 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 3: But I'm also not somebody who's in front of the 77 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 3: camera trying to give my life to the show. It's 78 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 3: one thing to have an opinion based on what you're seeing. 79 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 3: I even do that this podcast is my opinion based 80 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 3: on what I'm watching on television. I give my professional 81 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,359 Speaker 3: opinion and my opinion as. 82 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 4: An audience and a viewer. 83 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 3: I don't take it too far where I am threatening 84 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 3: bodily harmed to any of these women. And I've now 85 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: have been seen that some of you fans of reality 86 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 3: TV and housewives have taken it so far that the 87 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 3: shows are now no longer enjoyable to tweet about. It's 88 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 3: to the point now where a lot of people have 89 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 3: now decided to just let me watch it, stay off Twitter, 90 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 3: and keep it moving. 91 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 4: And now I understand why. 92 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 3: It has now been revealed that Diana from the Real 93 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 3: Housewats of Beverly Hills has now hired twenty four hour 94 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 3: security because of death threats she's been receiving. 95 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 4: That is fucked up. 96 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 3: Regardless if you think Diana is cool or should not 97 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 3: be on the show, that's fine, talk about that. Why 98 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 3: are you guys taking it so far to where you 99 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 3: are threatening to kill her? That is not okay under 100 00:06:54,279 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 3: any circumstance, And that's the creator of Reality TV. What 101 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 3: we're trying to do is really give a platform for 102 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 3: these regular people to have the courage to live their 103 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 3: real life. These aren't actors who get to hide behind 104 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: a character. These are regular people who are showing you 105 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 3: who they are in their real life. And yes, we 106 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 3: can judge them. We can judge them based on what 107 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 3: we're seeing on the show. That's fine. On last week's 108 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 3: episode of Reality with the King, I talked about how 109 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 3: dark Kimsley used to be this very interesting housewife, but 110 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 3: in my humble opinion. 111 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 4: I felt that the. 112 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 3: Viscerals she received from the fans on Twitter has now 113 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 3: caused her to be a show of herself, and a 114 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 3: lot of you guys agree with me. So imagine what's 115 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 3: going to happen to the state of reality TV when 116 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 3: you guys take things so far where you're sending death 117 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 3: threats to cast members. Why would they go on TV 118 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 3: anymore to get you guys something to watch if they 119 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 3: have to be subjected to hiring security when all they're 120 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 3: trying to do is be themselves and give you guys 121 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 3: a slice of their authentic life. From what I understand, 122 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 3: Diana has been receiving death threat because people believe she 123 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 3: paid for these bots to attack Garcelle's son. I just 124 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 3: don't believe that's true. I would be shocked if this 125 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 3: woman is doing that because she feels the need to 126 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 3: defend herself against the social media bullies. I don't think 127 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 3: Diana is an interesting housewife, and that's okay to say. 128 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 3: I think Diana signed up to do the show because 129 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 3: she was bored, and like most rich people who have 130 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 3: so much money, the one thing some of them don't 131 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 3: have is fame. 132 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:50,479 Speaker 4: And I think Diana. 133 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 3: Chose to be on the show for fame, so we 134 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 3: can talk about that. We can talk about whether or 135 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 3: not she's interesting. We could talk about how she licks 136 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 3: her lips as if she's on a marathon to win 137 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: the Olympics, like, we can talk about that. But to 138 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 3: subject her to death threats based on what you think 139 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 3: she may have done. Again, the operative work here is 140 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 3: think there's no factual evidence that shows she's done that. 141 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 3: So leave that situation alone, but most importantly, leave these 142 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 3: kids alone. Leave these reality stars alone. When it comes 143 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 3: to you guys threatening physical harm to them, it's not cute, 144 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 3: it's not funny, and what's going to happen? And mark 145 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 3: my word, they're no longer going to want to be 146 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 3: able to be on TV anymore because for them, it's 147 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 3: not worth it. And what have you guys accomplished by 148 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 3: doing that? A show possibly being put on palls a 149 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 3: show being filled with cast members to fulfill some sort 150 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: of demand that people think needs to happen. Some of 151 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 3: you guys are going so far with it, are ruining 152 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 3: these shows. 153 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 4: Let these people live their lives. 154 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 3: Let's have fun talking about what we're seeing. Let's have 155 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 3: fun sharing our opinions. Let's get back to the fun 156 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 3: days of that. I don't know what has happened in 157 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 3: the past five years to where things just have been 158 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 3: more disgusting, to the point where when I post shit 159 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 3: on Twitter, I post it and sometimes. 160 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 4: I keep it moving. 161 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 3: And I love engaging with the audience. And again, this 162 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 3: isn't about the entire audience of reality TV. I want 163 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 3: to keep saying that this is about a select few 164 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 3: of people who go too far with it. 165 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 4: I love engaging with the fans. 166 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 3: I love engaging every Friday and Saturday night when Bell 167 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,839 Speaker 3: collected of Love and Marriage, Hansville, Love and Marriage, DC. 168 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 3: Like I love engaging with the fans. I just love it. 169 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 3: Like I purposely stay home on the weekends because I 170 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 3: like to live tweet with the audience, because the audience 171 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 3: means the world to me.

I think that they were 488 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: such a cute couple together. I definitely still see the love. 489 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: But I understand her too, being in it. How much 490 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: more can you take? Like, come on, you know how 491 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: much more?

But do you 508 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 3: feel like you're the star of the show. 509 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: I absolutely feel like I'm the star of the show. 510 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: I'm the star of any room that I walk in. 511 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: Absolutely that goes without saying no offense to anybody else. 512 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: But when you show up as your authentic self and 513 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: be who you are, people don't feel at They gonna 514 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: respect that and they're gonna see that it is what 515 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: it is. 516 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 2: I feel like. 517 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: For me, I'm so vulnerable and open because I can't 518 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 1: remember lies. So if this is what it is, and 519 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: people can only respect the real that's in any situation 520 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: that you're in, and they can feel if you're not 521 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: being true, So yes, definitely I'm gonna say yes without 522 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: a doubt. Yes, I am the star of Bell collective. 523 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: I'm the start of any room that I walk in. 524 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 3: So when people say akesha maybe or LaTrece may be, 525 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 3: what do you say to that, they should feel. 526 00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 2: The same way. 527 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: You know, the Tree's gonna feel that way anyway, that's 528 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: her if she's the trees anywhere. 529 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 2: She's gonna feel that, and that's how people should feel. 530 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 2: And that's just what it is. 531 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 3: Some people have tweeted they want to defund women's empowerment 532 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 3: brunches in general. They feel like women's empowerment brunches are 533 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 3: nothing but an open form for mean girls to be mean. 534 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 3: What do you have to say about that? Knowing that 535 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 3: you are known as the queen of these brunches. 536 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: I think that first of all, everybody's entitled to their opinions. 537 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: And I have gone to empowerment brunches. 538 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 2: That was like, what is this? What are we doing? 539 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: Nobody's networking. 540 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: Everybody's sitting there, baby, and they red bottoms hunting and 541 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,479 Speaker 1: best hair hunting that God is hair. Everybody's sitting there 542 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: hunting looking good, but nobody's actually networking. So when I 543 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: started these brunches back in twenty seventeen, that's why all 544 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: of my true supporters that's actually attended the brunches, they're like, 545 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,719 Speaker 1: what the honestifs that we're seeing we were actually networking. 546 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: We bring in business consultants, someone from the irs my 547 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: they are those types of brunches. 548 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 2: I'm not offended by that. I just know that you're 549 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 2: only as good as your leader. 550 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: So whatever I put out and whatever I treat people, 551 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: they're coming not to just be like, oh, I'm just 552 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: empowering because it's nothing else to do. In Jackson, They're saying, 553 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: you know what, I know who Latitia is. I know 554 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: her heart and I know what she stand for, so they, 555 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: you know, they come and support the brunches. However, I 556 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: have I have attended of several brunches where I'm like, 557 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: I didn't even get to meet the host and it 558 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: was like she she left, Okay, you just got them 559 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: a little money on event, right, Okay, you know so 560 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 1: I get it. I get where people are coming from. 561 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: I totally get it. And at the end of the day, 562 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: they have the right town their own opinions. But you 563 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: have to know me and my character and it speaks 564 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: for itself. So I mean, it is what it is. 565 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: I've been empowering before empower became trending. I was the 566 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: girl sitting on the bus when nobody wanted to sit 567 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: with her. I was the girl pouring into someone else 568 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: when they ran away from home. So before empower meant 569 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: became a theme or I don't know, how is it 570 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: a money mark, money making thing, because the close that 571 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: I've ever gotten was breaking even so I don't even 572 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: know how that's. 573 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 2: The money market, but. 574 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: You know, I've been that girl and this is what 575 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: I do.

Some people love the fact that 580 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 3: the two of you had this great bond and that 581 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 3: you're always there for her, while other people think you 582 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 3: need to cut the cord. 583 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 4: And get rid of her ever being at your brunches Again. 584 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 3: Now that you watch a couple of these episodes and 585 00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 3: been watching with the fans, do you feel that Marie's 586 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 3: behavior has single handedly ruined your brunch and possibly your reputation? 587 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: Yes and no No, because I know Marie as a 588 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: person myself. 589 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 2: I know Marie.

We were just sitting the grocery store, me 595 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,240 Speaker 1: and Josh the other day getting his snacks. 596 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 2: Lady I've never met in my life. 597 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: And she was like, I love you so much, and 598 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: she whispered in my ear and she said, please start 599 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: Marie from Ma tena of your brunches by I don't 600 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:42,760 Speaker 1: mean any harm. 601 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 2: I was like, and she left, and I'm like, oh 602 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 2: my god, did this. 603 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: Lady just come up to me while we're while we're 604 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: getting chips.
