Speaker 1: I'm a homegrowl that knows a little bit about everything
Speaker 1: and everybody. You don't know if you don't lie about that, right,
Speaker 1: Lauren can't even Hey, y'all, what's up. It's Lauren Rosa
Speaker 1: and this is the latest with Lauren Rosa. Now that
Speaker 1: you's your DELI dig on all things pop culture, entertainment,
Speaker 1: news and the conversations that shake the room. Now we're
Speaker 1: checking in behind the scenes to the ground now. I
Speaker 1: feel like we haven't really checked and checked in like
Speaker 1: the last couple episodes because we've just been getting to
Speaker 1: the latest because there has been so much to talk about.
Speaker 1: But if we're checking in behind the scenes of the
Speaker 1: Grind today, I am feeling h I'm excited. I'm excited today.
Speaker 1: I'm actually in a celebratory mood.
Speaker 2: Today.
Speaker 1: I just reached a major milestone career wise. You know
Speaker 1: how like you set out to do something, you have
Speaker 1: a goal at the top of your notebook, and then
Speaker 1: when you can finally check it off and say, Okay,
Speaker 1: we finally got to the finish line on this, it
Speaker 1: feels good. So I can't tell you guys exactly what
Speaker 1: it is yet, but I'm celebrating something so I am.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm in a really really good mood. I'm excited.
Speaker 1: Nothing's going to change too crazy that hasn't already been
Speaker 1: moving and changing, But it just feels really good to
Speaker 1: complete something and to get something across the finish line
Speaker 1: that you have been pushing for.
Speaker 2: So that's how I'm feeling. It is, you know, mid
Speaker 2: week today.
Speaker 1: You know, the midweek feeling is always like a weird like, Okay,
Speaker 1: it's not Friday, but it's not Monday either, so that's
Speaker 1: that's a weird feeling. But I'm excited. Nonetheless, got some
Speaker 1: celebrating to do. I started last night and I want
Speaker 1: to continue the celebrations.
Speaker 2: I was so tired last night trying to do it.
Speaker 1: Y'all should have saw me these three four am wake
Speaker 1: ups be kicking my behind. Now, let's get on in
Speaker 1: to the latest, because there is a lot going on.
Speaker 2: As always.
Speaker 1: Now, there are reports out on anonymous sources right now
Speaker 1: that have been confirmed several outlets that the DOJ, the
Speaker 1: Department of Justice, have fired Marien Comy, lead prosecutor for
Speaker 1: the Southern District of New York.
Speaker 2: That is the district, and.
Speaker 1: This is the prosecutor that prosecuted Diddy and it's still
Speaker 1: going through the you know, the things with Sean Ditty Combs,
Speaker 1: who you guys know, will be sentenced on October third.
Speaker 1: And she's also the daughter of former FBI director James Comy,
Speaker 1: so y'all know, you know her dad does not have
Speaker 1: the best relationship with Donald Trump whatsoever. She was also
Speaker 1: a part of the prosecutors, the prosecution team that worked
Speaker 1: on the Jaisine Maxel Maxwell case in connection with Jeff
Speaker 1: free Epstein, and y'all know there's been a lot of
Speaker 1: heat in conversation around that because of the Epstein files
Speaker 1: that have not been released. But when we're just talking
Speaker 1: about Diddy here, one of the things that I've been
Speaker 1: thinking in conversation about this is what will sentencing look
Speaker 1: like for him? And I talked about this a bit
Speaker 1: on the Breakfast Club, but I did want to, you know,
Speaker 1: mention a bit more in depth here on the podcast. Now,
Speaker 1: y'all know, I'm not an attorney. I'm just someone who
Speaker 1: is able to like watch things, be able to interpret,
Speaker 1: tell stories around those things that I interpret, and to
Speaker 1: be able to answer questions when there's a story. The
Speaker 1: biggest question that I have right now is will this
Speaker 1: impact Diddy's sentencing. And I've already tried to begin to
Speaker 1: figure that out and we'll bring back to you.
Speaker 2: Guys whatever I can.
Speaker 1: I don't even know if that's the thing though, because
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, at this point, sentencing is
Speaker 1: at the point where you know, the prosecution and defense
Speaker 1: can weigh in on a pre sentensing report, which is
Speaker 1: a report that breaks down, you know, what the sentence
Speaker 1: and guidelines will like, what they'll look like like, what
Speaker 1: guidelines it will be used, the time suggested or the
Speaker 1: condition suggested, and all those things, and that comes from
Speaker 1: a probation office. However, the defense and the prosecution are
Speaker 1: able to weigh in on it. It was very obvious
Speaker 1: in the Bond hearing that Maureen Comi does not care
Speaker 1: for showing ditty Holmes. And I don't think that, you know,
Speaker 1: like people will say, well does she's prosecuting him, But
Speaker 1: just because you're prosecuting somebody doesn't mean that that you know,
Speaker 1: you have any deep moral feeling.
Speaker 3: Up.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say moral, because that's not true that you
Speaker 1: have a deep feeling about them. I was listen hearing
Speaker 1: Marine call me talk about why did he she stay
Speaker 1: behind bars? And not be that out on bond until
Speaker 1: the sentencing, you felt with every bone in your body, Oh,
Speaker 1: she do not like this man can't stand his guts.
Speaker 1: She feels like he deserves to be put under the jail.
Speaker 1: But you guys, you know, as we reported here, he
Speaker 1: was found not guilty on that rico charge and then
Speaker 1: sex trafficking charges, which you know, he could have been
Speaker 1: looking at up to life for that, and that is
Speaker 1: what Mariene Comi was asking for.
Speaker 2: That is what she wanted, and it didn't happen.
Speaker 1: And I've been saying this for a while, Like you know,
Speaker 1: when you're a defense attorney, even if you're a prosecutor, well,
Speaker 1: whatever side you're on, you win some, you lose some, right,
Speaker 1: you just do the best you can and you win some,
Speaker 1: you lose some. You throw a bunch of stuff at
Speaker 1: the wall and hopefully it sticks to get to the
Speaker 1: verdict that you want. But I've been saying, man, it
Speaker 1: gotta be embarrassing for the prosecution. Y'all wasted so much resources.
Speaker 1: It took a lot of people's time, a lot of resources.
Speaker 1: You guys made such big claims, such big, huge broad claims,
Speaker 1: and then when we got in court, and there was
Speaker 1: the evidence. There wasn't enough to prove a lot of things,
Speaker 1: a lot of the bigger things. And I think a
Speaker 1: lot of I know, I was always in court, you know,
Speaker 1: and every day would be different from me.
Speaker 2: Hey, today, the prosecution did a great job today.
Speaker 1: They didn't. At a high level, I could understand what
Speaker 1: they were trying to lean on to convict of that
Speaker 1: reco Like at a very high level, like, okay, if
Speaker 1: we're talking broad theories, these testimonies, you know, fall under
Speaker 1: that rico, that sex trafficking, this alleged evidence falls under that.
Speaker 1: But then when we got down to the hardcore, like
Speaker 1: here's you know what we have exact evidence of I
Speaker 1: did a lot of us didn't see that racketeering and
Speaker 1: sex trafficking. Those the racketeering and a sex trafficking charge
Speaker 1: is sticking. And that's what happened. And I've always wondered
Speaker 1: since since that not guilty verdict was read in the courtroom,
Speaker 1: I've always wanted it in my mind, how does the
Speaker 1: prosecution feel that's a big embarrassment because this is such
Speaker 1: a high profile case with really huge things being thrown
Speaker 1: out there, and really two huge things being thrown back
Speaker 1: their way. In response, Dinny's team is saying, the government
Speaker 1: targeted this man because he is black and wealthy. There
Speaker 1: are some bad decisions that that man made, and let's
Speaker 1: not you know what I mean, let's not ignore that.
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, he'll he'll have to, you know,
Speaker 1: he'll have to deal with that. And we've talked about
Speaker 1: here that he's you know, trying to begin to deal
Speaker 1: with it now through like rehabilitation, and he will be,
Speaker 1: you know, facing consequences for what he was convicted of.
Speaker 1: But I was like, yo, if I'm the prosecutor's office,
Speaker 1: I feel stupid.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this alleged overreach when it comes
Speaker 1: to Ditty's trial has anything to do with the reason
Speaker 1: why she was fired, but reports in speculation is that
Speaker 1: it has either it has something to do with that,
Speaker 1: or you know, people are alleging that it could have
Speaker 1: been something to do with, you know, her involvement in
Speaker 1: the Epstein and Jay Jaselle Jazaye Maxwell always said that
Speaker 1: that name wrong case or the fact that you know,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump loudly does not care for her father.
Speaker 2: So I don't know, I don't know what the answer
Speaker 2: to that is.
Speaker 1: I just wanted to give you guys this bit of
Speaker 1: a background and have a bit more conversation on it
Speaker 1: in addition to what we talked about in the Breakfast
Speaker 1: club today. Because it is eight forty seven am Eastern
Speaker 1: Standard time, I've reached out probably about three times now
Speaker 1: to different sources trying to figure out what the conversation
Speaker 1: is on does this impact the sentencing? Does this impact
Speaker 1: the conversation that the defense is going to have with
Speaker 1: the court around sentencing? And you know, they're pushback to
Speaker 1: the probation sentencing report, like what that looks like? Because
Speaker 1: I think that that's important to know. It's very obvious
Speaker 1: that Komi led the charge in this whole thing, right,
Speaker 1: So now that she's gone, number one, need to find
Speaker 1: out why exactly she's gone.
Speaker 2: I think once you dig deep on that.
Speaker 1: And you get more info on that, then you can
Speaker 1: determine whether the defense will use this in their favor
Speaker 1: or not. So trying to figure that out for you guys.
Speaker 1: We'll bring it back here right here when I have it.
Speaker 1: But up next in the latest, we got to get
Speaker 1: into the Housewives, y'all, because so like last week sometime
Speaker 1: Brittany Edi it was actually Monday. It was earlier this
Speaker 1: week Brittany Edie from The Royal Housewives of Atlanta. That
Speaker 1: is the new cast member who my teammates are celebrating
Speaker 1: a birthday and here I'm selling the breakfast club study
Speaker 1: of y'all guys hear that.
Speaker 2: But that is a new team member who got.
Speaker 1: Into it with Kenya Moore, and that getting into a
Speaker 1: Kenya Moore resulted in Kenyamore being suspended from the season
Speaker 1: and being able to return the following season. But Kenymore
Speaker 1: was suspended from season sixteen of The Royal Housewives of
Speaker 1: Atlanta after filming and premiering in a few.
Speaker 2: Episodes because she'd allegedly.
Speaker 1: Practiced revenge porn during one episode where she showed Brittany
Speaker 1: Edy allegedly naked and photos and you know, performing different
Speaker 1: sexual acts and photos during an event where Keny Moore
Speaker 1: was opening.
Speaker 2: Up her beauty spa.
Speaker 1: Right later came out that Brittany said, Hey, these photos
Speaker 1: weren't even me, and Bravo led me to you know,
Speaker 1: allegedly Bravo led her to believe that they were, and
Speaker 1: she thought they were. She fought a lawsuit against the network,
Speaker 1: you know, talking about the things that she went through
Speaker 1: stress wise because of that. And now fast forward, here
Speaker 1: we are the first part of the reunion, because the
Speaker 1: reunion will be broken up at different parts on Peacock,
Speaker 1: the first part of the reunion has recently happened. And
Speaker 1: after that, Brittany Edy was she wasn't at the reunion,
Speaker 1: so people were trying to figure out why was she
Speaker 1: not at the reunion. She came out with a statement
Speaker 1: that let us know that she's not going to be
Speaker 1: returning in the Real Housewives of Atlanta. And it's crazy
Speaker 1: to me because I think, of course show was a
Speaker 1: huge opportunity if you have businesses, if you have things
Speaker 1: going on like she does, right, but it was kind
Speaker 1: of given like not that she can't handle the smoke,
Speaker 1: but she got and got out.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I guess I would say she couldn't
Speaker 2: handle the smoke.
Speaker 1: I would say that because I mean, it's up to her.
Speaker 1: She is the one who had to go through thinking
Speaker 1: that these photos were her and then finding out they weren't,
Speaker 1: and you know, all the things. So she wants to
Speaker 1: follow her suit, go ahead and do you. But I
Speaker 1: think if we go back to og Housewives days, a
Speaker 1: nine leaks would to use this to her advantage. Baby,
Speaker 1: she would have been main peach next season, back on
Speaker 1: the vengeance against everybody, you know what I mean. Like
Speaker 1: it just it's just a different time, and it makes
Speaker 1: reality TV so different because I'm like, what, she's leaving
Speaker 1: the show already, we just started getting into her her storyline,
Speaker 1: the fact that the photos were not her and all
Speaker 1: the things, and then King is going to return and
Speaker 1: they'll probably have to be on the show to get
Speaker 1: I'm like, that is a crazy storyline. I put to
Speaker 1: Home Girl in the in the in the starting five
Speaker 1: of the Girls with the Beaches and she choosing to
Speaker 1: not come back. I don't know, y'all. Y'all let me
Speaker 1: know what y'all think. Get out there in the streets
Speaker 1: and then the tweets for the tres be outside, we outside,
Speaker 1: we outside, Okay, at me at Laura La Rose, and
Speaker 1: let me know what y'all think. I feel like Brittany
Speaker 1: should have stayed on the season. I think this season
Speaker 1: of Real House House Atlanta was good compared to the last,
Speaker 1: Like what two seasons Porscha coming back with such a
Speaker 1: big deal.
Speaker 2: Shmia really stole the scene though.
Speaker 1: For if I'm being honest, Shemiah stole the storyline for
Speaker 1: the season, even though Porscha was such a big deal
Speaker 1: on the show. Of course she held it down for
Speaker 1: the Ogs, but it was still not as good as
Speaker 1: it used to be. And I think they're always going
Speaker 1: to like the New Girls are always going to be
Speaker 1: compared to the Old Girls, and the new seasons will
Speaker 1: always be compared to the OG seasons. But it's really
Speaker 1: reasons like this that make fans be.
Speaker 2: Like, yo, what Anini shoot?
Speaker 1: Even a Porsche Kenya Moore gonna come back on that
Speaker 1: show with such a storyline. We all learned about what
Speaker 1: she was doing while she wasn't here, whether she contemplated
Speaker 1: a lawsuit, Is she sorry to Brittany for real? For real?
Speaker 1: Have they talked like we're gonna learn so much about
Speaker 1: that time period where they took her off the show
Speaker 1: and we know nothing unless she's created her YouTube channel.
Speaker 2: But she know what she doing, She created her own platform.
Speaker 1: She saw how things went down when you know, the
Speaker 1: statements and the conversations were released around those photos and
Speaker 1: then she moved on.
Speaker 2: But talking about the drama on the season as.
Speaker 1: Well, Drew and Porsche semi made up Let's take a listen.
Speaker 2: Chadwick from Ohio said, Portia, now that you've seen the season,
Speaker 2: do you think you owed Drew an apology for the
Speaker 2: way you treated her? From what we saw on the show,
Speaker 2: the relationship between her and Dennis was all business. Oh
Speaker 2: my god.
Speaker 3: I genuinely wanted to come today. One of the main
Speaker 3: things I wanted to do was to, number one, apologize
Speaker 3: for meeting with Ralph.
Speaker 2: Did you do it to be a petty of course ye.
Speaker 3: Watching the season, bag even though at the time I
Speaker 3: felt justified, we still didn't feel good.
Speaker 2: I still didn't not feel good about it. Drew, and
Speaker 2: I cared about you.
Speaker 3: I really did it, and so today I definitely knew
Speaker 3: I wanted to apologize for that, because no matter how
Speaker 3: upset we are with this situation, it still could have
Speaker 3: been talked through. I just want to tell you, woman's
Speaker 3: a woman who's also going through divorce. It wasn't right,
Speaker 3: and I apologized for that.
Speaker 1: Now say semi made up, because it's still obvious that
Speaker 1: Porsche felt a way about just Drew and Dennis being
Speaker 1: brought into conversation so much in general for a storyline,
Speaker 1: But I thought that it was very mature of her
Speaker 1: to say, look, I was hurt.
Speaker 2: Hurt people, hurt people. I was hurt.
Speaker 1: I apologized that was not right because the conversation she
Speaker 1: sat down to have a Ralph and Shemida was ruthless.
Speaker 2: Let's take a listen to that. Of all of the
Speaker 2: producers in Atlanta, White chose Dennis. I guess you said
Speaker 2: damn good music.
Speaker 3: We didn't realize I said damn good music because of
Speaker 3: her album. Her album is.
Speaker 2: I received that.
Speaker 3: I would never come down on your brand or who
Speaker 3: you are or your talents the way you did just
Speaker 3: now at breakfast club, you talked about my hair, and
Speaker 3: companies talked about you didn't like the hair just because
Speaker 3: of this issue? Is that interesting that you want to
Speaker 3: poke the bear and then you get mad when I
Speaker 3: have a reaction.
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna tell you right now, y'all.
Speaker 1: If I was Drew and I love Porsche, I love
Speaker 1: Porsha so much on the show, love her to death,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have forgave Porsche for that.
Speaker 2: Could you do that?
Speaker 1: Once you get upset, that's that's like a friend that
Speaker 1: knows all your business gets mad at you, goes online
Speaker 1: and just tells everybody your business. You do something like that.
Speaker 1: Once you sit with somebody who is you know, trying
Speaker 1: to you know, destroy my world allegedly right in all
Speaker 1: these different ways, and it's putting me through all this
Speaker 1: hell that Drew is a legend, she's been through because
Speaker 1: of the divorce, and you know them trying to figure
Speaker 1: out their circumstances. You sit down with a person like
Speaker 1: that and you feed their motive and their narrative.
Speaker 2: I can't trust you.
Speaker 1: Again, you can keep you sorry, And that could have
Speaker 1: been a bomb storyline for Drew. But we do have
Speaker 1: more parts of the reunion coming up, so there's more
Speaker 1: to come. Because at the end of the day, there's
Speaker 1: always a lot to talk about and there's always more
Speaker 1: to come, but y'all are always right here with me
Speaker 1: to talk about it. It's the latest with Lauren L.
Speaker 2: Rosa.
Speaker 1: I appreciate you guys every single time you are here,
Speaker 1: my Lowriders.
Speaker 2: I will see you in my next episode.
