But anyway, just 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: added some background context. He sat down with them. They 52 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: were on his show Flagrant, where it's him and like 53 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: a few other hosts. And while they're Andrew Schultz and 54 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: the guys had begun joking about black women, and you know, 55 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: just there there were a few different jokes thrown, but 56 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: you know, some of the things that were insinuated were like, 57 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 1: you know, black women are stressful. We you know, we're aggressive, 58 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: we you know that whole thing. It's like the angry 59 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: black woman, the we stress our man out, we don't 60 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: know when to keep our mouth shut, like that whole thing. 61 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: And people did not take it lightly, nor did they 62 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: care for you guys know that me Andrew Schaltz have 63 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: had the conversation about this when he came to the 64 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. If you didn't see that interview, please go 65 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: take a listen to that as well. But he sat 66 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: down with the Pivot and on the Pivot they talked 67 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: about this, because when all of this happened, Ryan Clark 68 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: had actually they talked about it on the Pivot. On 69 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: that platform, and Ryan Clark shared sentiments that went pretty viral, 70 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: and in the sentiments he shared, he was basically saying, like, Okay, 71 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: so y'all are over there talking about black women, but 72 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: let me tell about the black women. I know, they're amazing. 73 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: They do this, they do that, they take care of us, 74 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: They hear the world on our back. And I'm, you know, 75 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: making things up, not making them up, but I'm paraphrasing 76 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: and just summarizing a bit. But his sentiment was that 77 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: you guys have all of these negative things to say 78 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: about black women, you want to lean into these tropes 79 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: with the black women that, in my life literally are everything. 80 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: And Andrew Schultzen and Ryan Clark had a very one 81 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: on one conversation. Either are other people in the room 82 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: about that moment Andrew Schaltz shared, you know, with Ryan 83 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: Clark that he felt like Ryan was not trolling, but 84 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: that it was like a clout chase because at that moment, 85 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: everybody was talking about Schultz and his jokes and blah 86 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. Ryan made it very clear it 87 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: wasn't about you. He said, you know, basically, respectfully, I 88 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: don't care about you. I used you as a symbol 89 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: of here's what happens when it comes to black women 90 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: in these little jokey jokes. Here's what happens when it 91 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 1: comes to black women in this non respect Basically, he 92 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: said that he felt like it didn't feel like a joke. 93 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: Like a lot of the things that Andrew Schultz said 94 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: and that sit down with the Shits and Giggles podcast, 95 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: I feel like that's something you heard, you regurgitated, that's 96 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: how you felt. Andrew Schultz of course took that offensively. 97 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: He you know, felt like in the moment, you know, 98 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: you're throwing it on me that I don't know that 99 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: these tropes and these things exist that I don't know, 100 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: amazing women in general, but also amazing Black women, and 101 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,679 Speaker 1: you know, like he kind of was offended that Ryan 102 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: thought that he was he was that ignorant to you, 103 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: you know, all of the things that you know, us 104 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: as black women deal with, the stereotypes and the walls 105 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: that we, you know, fight against. But I think Ryan's 106 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: point was it's like, well, you know, I honestly might 107 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: not have been trying to make that point, but since 108 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: we're here, if that is what you understand, if that's 109 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: what you know, why would you even make that joke. 110 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: I understood why people were bothered. For me, it was 111 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: like it was the messenger like that's never gonna land 112 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: well from white men. It's just not even if I 113 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: think it's funny as hell, like I think Andrew Shows 114 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: is funny. Especially after meeting him, I feel like, you know, 115 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: our conversation was a one and done conversation at the 116 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: breakfast club, but I feel like after meeting him, I 117 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: understand that he takes aim at everybody. You know, nobody 118 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: is a safe per se. But I do think that 119 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: there is this like thing when it comes to black women, 120 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: and I think rightfully so one of my homeboys asked 121 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: me today, like, well, you know, that's kind of unfair. 122 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: So you want him to treat you different because you're 123 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: a black woman. And I was like yeah, and he 124 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: was like, well, I don't understand that. And I was like, 125 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it's one of those things where to me, 126 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: I feel like we carry so much, we deal with 127 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: so much, we are the ingredients so much that yeah, 128 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: handle me, talk to me nice. I think that there 129 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: is just a level of understanding that doesn't have to 130 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: happen when you're white. Period. My friend actually came back 131 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: around and was like, you know what, I kind of 132 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: understand it because it's like if a white woman were 133 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: to say certain things about a black man. And they 134 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,119 Speaker 1: brought this up in a podcast. They talked about Chelsea 135 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: Handler saying that because of how aggressive she is, white 136 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: men can't handle her. She was making a joke white 137 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: man can't handle her, she needed a black man, and 138 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: they were talking about how like you know that leans 139 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: into like black men have to be aggressive, they have 140 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: to be tough. And after this and after that, and 141 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: when they were telling the joke, my friend was like, 142 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: I don't really like that. I said, oh, you want 143 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: to talk about mothers, Like, okay, now you understand, And 144 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: do you think Chelsea Handler is racist? He said no, 145 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: do you think she means it will to you. He said. 146 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 2: No. 147 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, but it's because it's like, who are you? 148 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: That's all that the people are saying, and that is 149 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: the conversation that they were having on the pivot. I 150 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: do think that like somebody in the room at some 151 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: point could have been like, all right, bro, all right, 152 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, like I feel like comedians should be able 153 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: to be comedians. They should be able to joke, they 154 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: should be able to have a good time. But I 155 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: do think that they got to stand on their shit though, 156 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: And that's why I'm like, I don't want to even 157 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: really discuss the guys from the Shits and Giggle's podcast 158 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: who sat in that room and he ha ha joke, 159 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: he joked, and then after that we're like, oh my god, 160 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: we were so intimidating. We should have said something. If 161 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: we knew, we would have punched him in his face, 162 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: but we were just like, you know it just you know, 163 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: time and place, time and place. No, if they would 164 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: have stood on like yo, no, I thought the joke 165 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: was funny, it would have been like, okay, cool. I 166 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: think standing on it is the big thing. And that 167 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: was like when me and Andrew Schultz had the conversation 168 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: at the breakfast club. That was my whole thing. It's like, okay, cool, 169 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: if that's how you you know, you want a joke, 170 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: but like, stand on it. And I do appreciate that 171 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: he does stand on I don't mean harm by this. 172 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: I'm a comedian. I understand He also in the Pivot 173 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: interview says he understands people that are upset. He gets it. Like, 174 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: if you're upset, he gets it. You have a right 175 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: to be upset. But he's still going to tell his joke. 176 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: I don't think that comedians, white comedians should not be 177 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: able to joke about black people and black things. I 178 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: think funny is funny. But I do think that there 179 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,679 Speaker 1: are you know, cultural awarenesses and certain levels of tone 180 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: deaf that you just have to be knowledgeable of so 181 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: that when the backlash or the response comes your way, 182 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: you know how to deal with it. And then I 183 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: think they raised a good point too. In this interview. 184 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: The conversation came up in the room of like, okay, 185 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: because Andrew Schultz is white or whoever, right, should you 186 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: only as a comedian be able to joke about things 187 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: that you've actually experienced? So like if he had actually 188 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: experienced a black woman or like whatever the case may be. 189 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: I don't think that that should be a rule either, 190 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: Like I'm so free flown when it comes to this, 191 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I still kind of felt like, 192 00:08:55,200 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 1: m you know what you did, Like it's a hard 193 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: middle place to be in and rightfully so, I think 194 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: it depends on the day. And I think when my 195 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: friend asked me, like, as a black woman, you want 196 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 1: people to regard you differently, Yes, we do. But again, 197 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: at the same time, I'm still one that believes that 198 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: people should be able to laugh and joking he ha 199 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: like and all that good stuff. But I will say 200 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: like it was I felt good watching the pivot and 201 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: them having a very respectful conversation about black men, feeling like, nah, 202 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: but don't play with them though, don't do that because 203 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: other way around, black women we coming out swinging like 204 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: we we moved, like we pushing protest lines about y'all period, 205 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: And that's I think that that's the biggest thing as 206 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: well too. I think it was the optics of this 207 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: white man making the jokes regardless if you thought it 208 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: was funny or he could or not. But then it 209 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: was okay, there's these other black men who are there, 210 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: and it's no like, yo, bro, relax like. Even if 211 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: it was jokingly like yo, relax like, it was nothing. 212 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: So make sure y'all go check out that conversation on 213 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: the Pivot with Andrew Schauss. It was a really good conversation. 214 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: I would love to hear what you guys thought about, 215 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: you know, the middle point that they came to in 216 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: that conversation. Now, next up, we're gonna take a very 217 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: hard rite and head on down to the South where 218 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: the Brick Squad be at in Atlanta. Waka Flaka so 219 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: Whaka Flaka posted this video today and in the video, 220 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: he's having some internal thoughts about the fact that now 221 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: he's older and he don't want no holes no more. 222 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: He wants his woman. He say, he don't want no 223 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 1: thoughts no more. He wants his woman. He talks about, 224 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: you know, as you get older, becoming sensitive and more 225 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: sensitive and just wanting to be with one person, somebody 226 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: that's gonna hold you. And the people are in the 227 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: comments flaming my guy, Waka. You know I love you, 228 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: but they were flaming you, and I was kind of 229 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: I know why the people are doing it, because most 230 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: people are like, well, you had Tammy. She was a 231 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: dedicated wife, a loving wife, and you just couldn't hold 232 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: it together. It's given like waka, isn't it very I 233 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: know he's still like doing shows and performances and all that, 234 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: but it seems like he's just in the mental space 235 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: of like, I just want something a little bit more 236 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: of substance right now, not even right now, but at 237 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 1: this point in my life, and whatever made him arrive 238 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: to that feeling. I'm not mad at it. I know 239 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: some of you guys make me mad about it. I'm 240 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: not mad about it. And the reason why I'm not 241 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: mad about it is because I think a lot of 242 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: times as a woman, I think, and I've been guilty 243 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: of this and probably will be guilty of this again. 244 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: I think sometimes we date men and we try to 245 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: like be with men and you know, engaged and married 246 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 1: and having kids by these men because of where we 247 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 1: see them going, not where they're actually at. And I 248 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: think as a man, it's like men can kind of 249 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 1: like compartmentalize a little bit. It's like, Okay, I know 250 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 1: I might not be ready for all of this, but 251 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: let me sit back and think about it. Like what's logically. 252 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,719 Speaker 1: Men are so much more logical sometimes than we are, 253 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: even when the logic is like stupidity. And let me 254 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: explain that. When I say that, I mean like, okay, 255 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: so a a man will be like, all right, I 256 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: might not be the most happiest, but this home brings 257 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: me peace. I'm here afraaidy to have kids. I know 258 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: so many men right now who are in situations where 259 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: they you know, they're married. They locked into these situations, 260 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 1: and to be honest with y'all, like, if they could 261 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: go and figure it all out again, they would, but 262 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: they're so locked in they can't. But it's because at 263 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: the time it made sense for like what they needed. 264 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: They needed that family unit they needed. Like some men too, 265 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: also don't feel like anything unless they're providing in a 266 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: unit like that. So they fulfill that void. They compartmentalize, 267 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: They put to the side of things that that you know, 268 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: might seem like a hoop dream and take. You know, 269 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: it's like the eighty twenty rule and lock in, and 270 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: then things happen. They're not happy, the cheating comes in 271 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: and all of that stuff. I would rather be with 272 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: a man who's like, yo, look, I'm in a space 273 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: right now where like I can't really give you everything. 274 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: And when I say be with the man, I mean 275 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: you can't really be with someone who's in this space. 276 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: But I mean I would rather have a man tell 277 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: me and be honest with me about Hey, right now, 278 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 1: I'm not in a space where like I can be 279 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: what you want me to be for you, Like I 280 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: can't be with you, I can't lock in. I'm not 281 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 1: Monogamy is not a thing that I'm doing right now. 282 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm not there then, leaning. So I don't understand why 283 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: we get upset at men getting to that point, because 284 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: women get there too. Like us as women, we like 285 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: like we really act like sometimes like just because a 286 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: man is a man, like we're both not like human 287 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: like as women, Yeah, I think that we do have 288 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: the tendency to lean in a little bit more, locking 289 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: a little bit more or whatever. So it seems depending 290 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 1: on the man that you're dealing with. But like we 291 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: all have that time in our life where we're like, oh, okay, 292 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: like I gotta do the kids thing, It's time to 293 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: buy a crib. Okay, normal clubs, maybe just lounge just now, 294 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: you know, maybe not even lounges, maybe cute, little dinner, 295 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: little drink, a little happy hour. It's time to have them. 296 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: Like we all have that shift in our life where 297 00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: it's just like substance. I want more, I want a level? 298 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: What up? I need to do more? What's wrong would 299 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: a man be allowed about that? I don't understand it, 300 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: because when you're getting the other thing, a man who 301 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: is playing all these games, not saying much of anything. 302 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 1: Now now we all andressing the boy page trauma, bonding 303 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,719 Speaker 1: in the comments. So I don't really understand it. But 304 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: the girls are dragging him. So I wonder know how 305 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: y'all feel. Please go take a listen to that Waka 306 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: Flocka video. I don't know if Waka serious, why could 307 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: play so dang much? I don't really know, but take 308 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: a listen. Let me know what you think. And I 309 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: believe that Waka Flocka is actually single. Now, he did 310 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: have a little girlfriend that he was a little girlfriend, 311 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: no shade Waka. He had a girlfriend that he went 312 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: public with a little bit for a little bit of time. 313 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: This was after Tammy. I remember they like posted photos 314 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: on like the helicopter and it was like out hookah 315 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: and all of that. But I haven't seen him post 316 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: it up or you know any of that recently. So 317 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: maybe this is him throwing his shot out there to somebody. Okay, 318 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: I don't know what is happening, but take a listen 319 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: to that video.
