Speaker 2: I love being a safe space. I always feel like

25
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 2: when you're talking to somebody, it's like inviting them into

26
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 2: your home.

27
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: Yes, but today we are going to talk about what

28
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: the f is going on with the Real Housewives of Atlanta.

29
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: So recently Candy Burris did a lot I believe it

30
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: was an Amazon Live if I'm not mistaken, and the

31
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: fans were asking her like, what's going on with Atlanta Housewives?

32
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: Are you going back? I'm paraphrasing, of course, but she

33
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: says something along the lines of, we haven't heard anything

34
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: in terms of a real update. As far as she knows,

35
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: they're still casting. And one thing she said I got

36
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: Twitter in an uproar and the comments were commenting is

37
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 1: when she said they think we don't have lies like

38
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: we have lies and nobody has time just to sit

39
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: around a way for them, again paraphrasing, right, So Twitter

40
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: was in a shambles about this, and next thing I know,

41
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: the show is trending she's trending, and I wanted to

42
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: talk to you because I watched your video about this

43
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: topic as well, and I just want to really get

44
00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: your insight in terms of when you saw that video

45
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: of her explaining what's happening with Atlanta. We are in January,

46
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: and just so the world knows, when I've worked on

47
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: that show, we always filmed in June and the show

48
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: will always air in November. It is January, and in

49
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: the words of Boys to Men, we're at the end

50
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: of the road, honey, And in the words of Voice

51
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 1: to Men featuring Brianmandnight, it's snowing. So let us know.

52
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:28,119
Speaker 3: Now.

53
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if Atlanta's going to give us winter

54
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 1: vibes Salta City, or are we going to get back

55
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: to filming in May and Atlanta. But as of today,

56
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: the Real Houseplots of Atlanta does not have a full cast,

57
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: They do not have a schedule, and Candy has said

58
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: that they all have lives and it's pretty unfortunate that

59
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: they don't have an update. What do you take of

60
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: all of this.

61
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 2: I think the first thing that was interesting to me

62
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,119
Speaker 2: was kind of hearing Candy complain. Now, when I think

63
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 2: about Candy I tend to think of Candy as I

64
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: know this is going to sound bad, but I don't

65
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 2: mean it to sound bad. I feel like she's more

66
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: of a company woman. And what I mean by that

67
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 2: is somebody that knows how to play ball, you know,

68
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 2: knows when to go to work, clocks in, and is reliable.

69
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: And I think the network likes that about her. Right,

70
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 2: So it was interesting to me to hear what sounded

71
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: like frustration on her part. What it made me think

72
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 2: about was the amount of times that she was quote

73
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 2: unavailable last season, right, So people were complaining about how she,

74
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 2: you know, was kind of seeming like she was a

75
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 2: little out of it, you know, not really participating in

76
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 2: the cash trips or like kind of coming and leaving early.

77
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 2: So my take on that was, Oh, she's trying to

78
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 2: be prepared to get ahead of the ball so that

79
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: she can get that schedule straight so she don't have

80
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 2: that same issue that she had last season.

81
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 3: That was my thought. As I listened to that, I was.

82
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 2: Like, Oh, she got memo and she's trying to make

83
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: sure she's ready and available.

84
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know if she wanted that memo. I

85
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: think she wanted a deal memo. I think she wanted

86
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: the memo on the check, honey, that states where I'm

87
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 1: going to be at what time and what place at

88
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: the end of the day. Let's have a real conversation, Richie.

89
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 3: Let's have it.

90
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: The Real house Spots of Atlanta is a Q check

91
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: and it's nothing to sneeze at. Now, when you have

92
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: a consistent job, right, you know how to allocate your

93
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: funds accordingly to this. To this massive check that you're getting.

94
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: When you're getting upwards of two million dollars to film

95
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: for four months, that's nothing to sneeze at. And I

96
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 1: think what's happening with a lot of the cast is

97
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: that's a lot of their income. Is the Real Housewives

98
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: of Atlanta. I'm not saying that's Candy's whole income. Before

99
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 1: people start, I wasn't suggesting that. What I'm saying is,

100
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: I don't care if you're Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, Steve

101
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 1: Jobs Rest in Peace, or Steven Spielberg. Two million dollars

102
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: for four months of work is a lot of money.

103
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: When I saw that video, I didn't think that it

104
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: was well, let me rearrange my schedule to shoot the

105
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 1: shy in Chicago. I took it as like, Yo, we're

106
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: not going to be sitting waiting for you guys, because

107
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: we have to make money. We have to make money,

108
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: and we're trying to figure out where our income is

109
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: coming from for this year. And I'm not mad at that.

110
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 1: I would think the same thing too, But what do

111
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 1: you think is happening? Because I didn't finish watching the

112
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: last season of The Real Housewives Atlanta. Based on what

113
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: you saw, I'm assuming you finished the season, Richie. What

114
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 1: do you think is going on over there to where

115
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: I did. It's it's a delay.

116
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: A part of me wonders if they are trying to

117
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 2: maybe create some level of anticipation, some level of we're

118
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: missing the show and the franchise. I really have no idea,

119
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 2: because in my mind, it doesn't really seem like the

120
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 2: smart play to wait this long, because after a while,

121
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: I do feel like there's gonna be a lack of

122
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 2: interest involved. You know what I'm saying, Like one of

123
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 2: the things that I feel like a show like Love

124
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 2: and Marriatimes. I'm just using it as an example because

125
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 2: it was the last show I reviewed. Right gets so

126
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 2: right when April is coming and I know without a

127
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: doubt normally that new season is coming and what has

128
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 2: happened in social media is not too far away from

129
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: what's actually gonna air. That means to me, we're on

130
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: target with the schedule. Okay, we're on target with it.

131
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 2: So with this huge gap with for me, Real Housewives

132
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 2: of Atlanta, it's been four months since that shows going

133
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 2: off the air. Now, this is how I, in terms

134
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: of Candy planning out her year, this is how I

135
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 2: plan out mind right, because I'm thinking to myself, Potomac

136
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: and marriat to Medicine are gonna end. What's gonna be

137
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 2: your Sunday night show now? Because you won't have anything

138
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 2: in the can. And so it would have made more

139
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 2: sense to me that Potomac is airing and that Real

140
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 2: Housewops of Atlanta is filming. When Married to Medicine and

141
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 2: Potona go off boom, you got Real Housewives of Atlanta

142
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:19,119
Speaker 2: to take us from spring to fall, keep that cycle moving.

143
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 2: So now you're gonna be left with this gap. You know,

144
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 2: we're just gonna be left like on our Sunday nights,

145
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 2: like with nothing to do. And it's just that's gonna

146
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 2: be a huge chunk of in my opinion content for

147
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 2: people who look like me and you. It's just it's

148
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 2: gonna be a huge void there. So that is concerning

149
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 2: to me.

150
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 1: No, I agree, Listen, there is a lot to be concerned.

151
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: It concerned me. Season nine my last season of the

152
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: Real Housewives of Atlanta. I just remember working on season nine,

153
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: and I remember feeling in my spirit, I was like,

154
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: this is my last season. I just remember watching a

155
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: group of smart, beautiful, talented, powerful women phoning it in.

156
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: I just remember it was this one scene and I

157
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: remember them phoning it in, and that was a very

158
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: challenging season for me and for them it was. It

159
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: was challenging, and it turned out to be a great season.

160
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: It was a fantastic season overall, but a lot of

161
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: work had to go into it, Richie, because they were

162
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: phoning it in. And I remember having a conversation with

163
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: them saying that you guys will not always be number one.

164
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: It is a privilege to be number one, and when

165
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: you are number one, you can't get comfortable. And at

166
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: that time, Richie, season nine Atlanta Housewives was number one

167
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: for possibly maybe six to seven consecutive years. So imagine

168
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: seven years you have the number one show on the network.

169
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: At one point in time, they literally got comfortable. I'm

170
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: watching them be comfortable, and I'm watching them have conver

171
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 1: stations about the most frivolous things that they didn't care about.

172
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: And when I said that to them, I said, I'm

173
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 1: going to leave this show one day, and you're going

174
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 1: to miss having somebody push you to be great because

175
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: you're pushing me away due to the fact that it's

176
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: a struggle to get anything out of you, ladies. And

177
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: when the time comes when you're not number one anymore,

178
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: I want you to think about this day and just

179
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: always remember I try to help you. I try to

180
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: help you. So it does sadden me to see what

181
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 1: this show has become, only because I gave them a

182
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: fair warning. And if you watch my interviews with some

183
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 1: of the Housewives of Atlanta, they'll tell you like, No

184
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: Lows was like whatever, so bays on what's been happening

185
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: these past couple of seasons. There has been this call

186
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 1: to action of doing something, of doing something drastic, because

187
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: we're missing the magic and a lot of people are

188
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: demanding a reboot. Now, you're also somebody who's watched the

189
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: show since day one? Are you one of those people

190
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: who are championing for this show to have a reboot,

191
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: or do you think, no, let's keep half of the cast,

192
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: all of the casts from last season and work with them.

193
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: Where is your head at in this?

194
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: You know, I'm so glad you asked me that, because

195
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 2: since we spoke earlier, I said, I need to really

196
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 2: process this and I want to think about what the

197
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: best response is. Right, So I started like concocting a

198
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 2: list of who I would want back and who I

199
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 2: think they need to bring on. So I think that

200
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 2: we need to do a sort of soft reboot, right,

201
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: similar to what they did with the row Housewives of

202
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 2: New York. You know, I think it was season six.

203
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: I said that earlier in my video, where they kept Ramona,

204
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 2: Luin and Sonya and they brought in three new ladies.

205
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 3: I felt like that gave the show.

206
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 2: And then I felt like they hit the sweet spot

207
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 2: the next season because they had sort of filtered through,

208
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 2: like what's working with this cast and how can we

209
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 2: finesse it to make it better? And then the next

210
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: season they brought in eight women and it was on

211
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 2: and popping. Not necessarily because it was eight women. I

212
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 2: think it was because the women who were on were

213
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 2: dynamic and they were willing to just give you whatever

214
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 2: you needed.

215
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 3: Right.

216
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: So, with that being said, my list in terms of

217
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 2: what they should do, I think it's quite simple. I

218
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 2: feel like we keep I noticed is going to sound crazy,

219
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: We keep Kenya, and she doesn't quite fit with my idea,

220
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 2: my ideal theory for the group. But I do think

221
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 2: that the fans would be missing something. And I feel

222
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 2: like she knows what to do, you know what I mean,

223
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 2: Like she knows what to do when the camera turns on.

224
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 2: But I feel like Kenya needs somebody to work with.

225
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 2: So I think that's the only downside to that, But

226
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 2: I think I have a good solution for that. The

227
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 2: other thing is we need to pay the men Married

228
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 2: to Medicine love and marry times Field. The men are active,

229
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 2: and I know that the men aren't being paid on

230
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: Married to Medicine, but I feel like when I look

231
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 2: back at past seasons of Atlanta, the men were active.

232
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: The men were active and activated, and they were a

233
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 2: huge part of the story, and I feel like we

234
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 2: lose that with just the women, right, we lose it.

235
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 2: So I feel like you got to get the men

236
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 2: on there. Let them have some mess, and in that regard,

237
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 2: I would bring on Tamar and I know this is

238
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 2: gonna sound controversial.

239
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 3: Jr.

240
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 2: Seems like he's ready for the mess. Okay, No shade Tamar.

241
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 2: She kind of swims in the mess too, like, and

242
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 2: I feel like, let's pay.

243
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 3: Her for it.

244
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 2: Okay, let's pay her for it. She's given us all

245
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 2: this free content on Instagram. No, girl, let's get you

246
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 2: paid for it. That way, we got something else for

247
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 2: Candy to do, okay, because I feel like Todd got

248
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 2: a muzzle on in the background, all right, and there's

249
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 2: no shady, But I feel like, Todd, come on, Todd,

250
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 2: get get into it, because I know you got opinions.

251
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 3: I know you got thoughts.

252
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 2: And then the Tamar and Jr and Candy and Todd

253
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 2: of it all. I need to see how that's gonna

254
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 2: play out. I mean, if we're doing Shannan agains On

255
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 2: Married to Medicine, let's bring those Shenanigans to Real Housewives

256
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:18,319
Speaker 2: of Atlanta.

257
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: It's the Shenanigans meeting the stunt casting a phedra.

258
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 3: I meant the is it a stunt cast for Sweet Tea?

259
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: Oh? That was a stunt cast? You break up? Somebody's

260
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: ex husband exactly that stunt cast.

261
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, but in this situation, I feel like bringing

262
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 2: Tabar and bringing JR on. I feel like there's natural

263
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 2: tension between her and Candy because we know that they

264
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 2: can work it out and they'll fall out again. It's

265
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 2: like the one of the best frenemy ships that I

266
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 2: think we've seen in a long time that we didn't

267
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 2: really realize we were getting. So I do feel like

268
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 2: everybody on there, I want them to have active families

269
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 2: as well. That was another reason for me bringing in Table.

270
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 2: I mean, it works very well for some of your shows.

271
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 3: So active family.

272
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: When we go back to the core of what this

273
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 2: show is, you need an active family, and this is

274
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: all Atlanta.

275
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 3: It feels Atlanta to me.

276
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 2: The next thing I'm gonna say is, we got to

277
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 2: get rid of Chara, We got to get rid of Marlow.

278
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 3: I know. Let me tell you why.

279
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 2: I said, let me watch Traders because I need to

280
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 2: see what CHARAE gives me outside of Atlanta.

281
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 3: Right, and Charay fades into the background.

282
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: Definitely, she's a team player, but I think that's a

283
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 2: little bit of her issue.

284
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 3: She's she's I feel like she'll just do whatever you

285
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 3: want her to do. I just don't believe her.

286
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: Our mutual friend, Dustin Ross, he and I are recapping

287
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: Huntsville on the Reunion and on part two of the

288
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: Love and Marriage hunts for Reunion Melody allege that in

289
00:15:54,880 --> 00:16:00,080
Speaker 1: court Martell said under oath that he is not in

290
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: a relationship with Charae. They have a business relationship.

291
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 3: It is the paperwork.

292
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 4: You don't know what's in the paperwork, the same way

293
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 4: in the paperwork in the four case where you were

294
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 4: asked if you were in a relationship with shar Way

295
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 4: and you said it was a business arrangement. That's in

296
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 4: the paperwork too, verbati. You know, it's called the clerk typhon.

297
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: And then Dustin said, well, you know, Charae is a

298
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 1: known liar, paraphrazy. I know charm personally, Charae is one

299
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: about good girlfriends. So Richie and he gave me this

300
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: look like Carlos, you don't she lies about she? And

301
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: I said, wait, what are we doing here, This is

302
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: some of the fans for comedy. Carlos, you are tripping.

303
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: Charae is a no liar, And I'm like the chara

304
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 1: that I know. I don't see her as a liar.

305
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: But what about But if I missing something.

306
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell you, Yes, you

307
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 2: can't see it. Because she's your friend. I'm sure you

308
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 2: get the real version of her. I feel like you

309
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 2: probably get a more authentic version because she ain't got

310
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 2: to act for no ratings or no check. Charay is

311
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 2: a legend, you know what I'm saying. She's legendary. I'm

312
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 2: not gonna take that away from her because I do

313
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 2: feel like she has that helped establish Atlanta. But I

314
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 2: just don't feel like she is part of the engine

315
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 2: that's going to keep it going. I just don't feel

316
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 2: like she got that thing right. Marlow, to me, is

317
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,199
Speaker 2: the cog in the wheel making the bicycle not be

318
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 2: able to move.

319
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

320
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 2: Nobody can move forward because I feel like Marlow is

321
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 2: creating drama for the sake of drama, Like there's nothing

322
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 2: going on there. I mean, there's just lay archive. I'm

323
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 2: happy for her and the boys. I feel like that

324
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 2: that is amazing and admirable, but no, you just created

325
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 2: too much Shenanigan's for me, and I just didn't believe it.

326
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 2: Whether that's her fault or whether that's whoever's thought they

327
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 2: told her to do it. I don't really know. All

328
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,959
Speaker 2: I know is it just it's like watching, Like what

329
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 2: am I watching right now? Why this doesn't even it

330
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 2: doesn't feel like anything that does that make sense?

331
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 3: And when I'm watching I should feel something.

332
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 2: So I just can She's in the words of Jasmine

333
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 2: Henley Brown, she can be chopped, you know, love her

334
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 2: in the fashions, use her for some Ultimate Girls Trip

335
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 2: stuff or some Trader stuff.

336
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 1: Isn't that no? To your point, I didn't even think

337
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: about going down this direction, But it's very interesting. Isn't

338
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: it interesting that they haven't used Marlowe for anything outside

339
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 1: of just being a housewife, because you would think with

340
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: her fashion like there could have been opportunities for Project

341
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: Runway appearance since we saw Gazelle on Project Runway, Giselle, Wendy,

342
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, to your point, why

343
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: wasn't she utilized for other stuff? I think all the

344
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: housewives from King I think Ultimate Girl's Trip, Charade, doing

345
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: Traders candy, having spin offs after spin offs have to

346
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: spin offs. I would consider Marlowe in terms of a

347
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: friend of she's an og as a friend of all

348
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,199
Speaker 1: the friends of in the history of the franchise of

349
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: her Housewife, she is an og for real, for real,

350
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 1: But to your point, she hasn't been utilized a lot.

351
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 1: And I never thought about this until this very moment.

352
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 1: I wonder if it's because, to your point, is the

353
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: audience connecting with her and if the network is connecting

354
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 1: with her, or is she just somebody that you said

355
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: they see as like going there, starts in drama and

356
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: go home.

357
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 2: I feel like that's it, and I feel like it

358
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,719
Speaker 2: only expanded when she became a housewife, and that's not

359
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 2: what we look for in a housewife. I mean for

360
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 2: me as somebody who's I feel like been around, you

361
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 2: know since the.

362
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 3: Beginning and was watching early ages of this.

363
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,679
Speaker 2: I just don't feel like she's it now if she

364
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 2: wants to be a friend and I'm listen, I was

365
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 2: campaigning for Marlowe to be a housewife, but once I

366
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 2: got it, I was like, oh no, no, send it back.

367
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 2: I would add in Kim and Croy. Here's why. They

368
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,959
Speaker 2: already got a lot of drama going on, so I

369
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: know the check will be easy to get to them,

370
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 2: like they'll probably take whatever you can I mean, whatever's

371
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 2: being offer because they need it, right, that would humble

372
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 2: Kim enough to come back and actually go to work.

373
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 2: She didn't have to work before. I feel like, now

374
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 2: she's got to show up, she's got to give it.

375
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 2: But they would have to live in separate places because

376
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 2: we can't have no police being called. Okay, I mean,

377
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 2: I feel like there's a way you can deal with

378
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 2: a sensitive divorce like this. You definitely saw it happen

379
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 2: on you know, we've seen it happen on Married to Me.

380
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 2: I'm pulling two shows that are my favorite shows right now,

381
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 2: Married to Medicine Love and Mary Tunsville. We've seen it

382
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 2: and we've seen it work for the show in the

383
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 2: sense that you explore what happens to these two people

384
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 2: when they part, and you don't just let one of

385
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 2: them fall off the radar. And I would love to

386
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 2: see how Kim integrates back into this group on a

387
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 2: more humble tip, like I would really love to see that.

388
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 2: I would also bring in Porsia and Simon. I think

389
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 2: that there's an opportunity there, and Porscha is fun and

390
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 2: that is what is missing on this show, that sporadic

391
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 2: dose of just what does she just say we need

392
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 2: that on the show. I just feel like that's something

393
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 2: that's missing. And then I left a spot open for

394
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 2: like a a random I picked Robin Andrade.

395
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 3: She is. She was from Ladies Who List.

396
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 2: She can help Kim look for a new house, and

397
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: I feel like she would also be a good foil

398
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 2: for Kenya as far as I know, two single women.

399
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 2: And I just kind of feel like I don't want

400
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 2: to make the show not about any women who aren't

401
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 2: yet married or who just happen to not be married,

402
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 2: because that could happen for them, and I feel like

403
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 2: the reality is the wives are gonna have some single girlfriends.

404
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: I have heard so many other people's lists. You are

405
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,640
Speaker 1: the first and only person, Richie, whose list I am

406
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: not mad at. I can actually see that cast and

407
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I'm into it. And this is the

408
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: thing about Kim Zoziak Beerman, regardless how you feel about

409
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: her whatever. And I think that's the problem that I'm having,

410
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: is the fact that I think the decision makers care

411
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: so much about what folks on Twitter have to say.

412
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: And I have to remind people in the world population

413
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: only twelve percent of them on Twitter, and y'all based

414
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 1: some very difficult decisions based on the twelve percent of

415
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 1: people that's on this app, and of those twelve percent,

416
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: only six of them watch Housewives. That to me is

417
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: part of the other reason why the show has not

418
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: been the same, because I feel like decisions are made

419
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 1: about Twitter. I love Marlowe. Me and marlow are friends

420
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 1: in real life. I love Marlowe. You admitted to being

421
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: one of those people who wanted marlow to have a peach, right,

422
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: You're like, let's have a peach. A lot of people

423
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,919
Speaker 1: wanted her to have a peach, and then when she

424
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: got the peach, those same people said, we don't want

425
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: her to have a peach nomore. So it's like, what

426
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: do y'all want? If we listen to the six percent

427
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: of people on Twitter who watches Housewives, that doesn't make

428
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: up for the rest of the world. It just doesn't.

429
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: And Kim Zosiak to me, I would love to see

430
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: her back on the show. I would love to see

431
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: her situation. I'm singing play out on TMZ and listen.

432
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying bring her back as a peach holder.

433
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: Maybe it is a friend so that we can kind

434
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 1: of see what she gives. But I think the general

435
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: consensus is some I think drastic has to happen. One

436
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,919
Speaker 1: of the things that I'm realizing that's happening with the

437
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 1: show is this, I think the decision makers know they

438
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 1: have to get it right. I think Atlanta is at

439
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: this very crucial place in the show to where I'm

440
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 1: not afraid the show being canceled, because I don't think

441
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,439
Speaker 1: the show will ever be canceled because at the end

442
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: of the day, the ratings are good enough to where

443
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: advertisers can make interest on the investment that they made

444
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 1: during the commercials, So the show would never be canceled.

445
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: But I think it's one of those shows to where

446
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 1: it will possibly be on a real Housewives of Dallas

447
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: Pauls if they don't get it right. Because the fact

448
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 1: that this show was number one for almost seven consecutive years,

449
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: and don't I think it's maybe number three or four.

450
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: I don't know number one obviously, as you know, it's

451
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 1: Beverly Hills Housewives. Below deck is high up there. All

452
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: that The Pump Rules is an example of a show

453
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 1: that that ratings have done well.

454
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 2: One of the things that I felt like for me.

455
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 2: Now I can't say whether or not everybody agrees with this,

456
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 2: but I feel like I am actually really loving this

457
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 2: season of Beverly Hills because I don't feel like the

458
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: focus is on just the fight right. Yes, I'm at

459
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 2: a point now I don't care about the scandal of

460
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 2: it all. I want to see dynamic personalities, intriguing stories,

461
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 2: and what people call storylines. I just think of it

462
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 2: as what is your personal story, what is your journey? Like,

463
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 2: I don't need you to have this whole thing plotted

464
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 2: out for the year. I just need you to have

465
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 2: an interesting life. That's where I'm at right now with it,

466
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 2: and that's what is intriguing because I feel like they're

467
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 2: pacing it, They're pacing themselves, They're just the stories are

468
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 2: just are just developing and new things are happening. And

469
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 2: where I have a like for Erica and I just

470
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 2: I didn't even like I didn't like her for the

471
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 2: past three seasons, Wow, I'm enjoying her now. So it

472
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,959
Speaker 2: just feels different. And I do feel you that it

473
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 2: is make or break at this point. But I think

474
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 2: that at least with the list that I felt like

475
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 2: I came up with, I tried to focus it on personalities. Yes,

476
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 2: and I think that's what makes Atlanta so hard because

477
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 2: they've got such big personalities. I think it's hard to

478
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: bring in a person that we don't know. It would

479
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 2: be hard to It could be hard to find a Monica, right.

480
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: I Carlos King the first. If you're out there, I'm

481
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: looking for the black Monica Garcia. If you're out there,

482
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,239
Speaker 1: please DM me, email me. Carlos King is making a

483
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 1: call to action, a public declaration. I am looking for

484
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: the black Monica Garcia. And if you exist, I don't

485
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: care where you are. I would build a show around you. Okay.

486
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: I built a show around Melody Hilton Huntsville, so let's

487
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: I've built a show Avola teacher Pearson in Jackson, Mississippi.

488
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: Don't play with my skill set. If you are somebody

489
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: that considers yourself the black Monica Garcia called Carlos Key

490
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: at what eight hundred find me? But you're right, you're right.

491
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 1: It's so it's a make up break season for them.

492
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 1: What I think is happening is they want to get

493
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: it right, and it's it's not something to where they

494
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: feel like we have a whole missing, to where we

495
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: gotta fell it right. I think they probably have things

496
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,399
Speaker 1: in development that can like take the place of the

497
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 1: time slot. But I do think this. I like to

498
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:48,439
Speaker 1: relate these celebrity issues with everyday people. At the end

499
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 1: of the day, these women were getting paid. Some are

500
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,120
Speaker 1: getting paid more than two million dollars for four months

501
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: of work. A large part of that we're getting paid

502
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: over one million dollars for four months of work. You

503
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: are an entrepreneur, just like me, right, I sign checks, okay,

504
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 1: and this is coming from somebody who signs checks with

505
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: my production company. If I'm paying somebody a salary of

506
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: two million dollars for four months of work and I

507
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: feel like you've been coasting for a year or two,

508
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 1: you better believe I'm going to take my time to

509
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 1: figure this out. I don't know anybody in the world,

510
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 1: or any job in the world where you can get

511
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: paid two million dollars for four months of work and

512
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: give nothing. It's to me, it's the goal of the

513
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: privilege that you can sit up there and get paid

514
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 1: so much money and not even give everything to the work.

515
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: And now that the work is not there anymore, I'm

516
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: now feeling what it's like when your employer is putting

517
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: you on notice because of the high salary. We all

518
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: go through that in America every day. People go through

519
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,959
Speaker 1: that all the time time. So and I love all

520
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: the girls, I really do, you know that, and some

521
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: of them are my friends. I don't feel sorry for

522
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: anybody who made that much money and didn't do one

523
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: hundred percent of the work. And you're now wondering, like,

524
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: what's going on with this show? That should have been

525
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: your focus day one when you were making this gross

526
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: amount of money. And I agree with the decision makers.

527
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,479
Speaker 1: I will take my time too. That's richie, that's a

528
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 1: lot of money. You want me to open up the

529
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: Brinks truck give out at least at least eight million

530
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 1: dollars for the entire cast. Okay, let's just say it's

531
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: eight million total for all the cast members. You want

532
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: me to rush a decision of investing eight million dollars

533
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: into something that hasn't been great. I don't know nobody's

534
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 1: job performance where you can be the number one employee

535
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: and slide all the way down to number three or four,

536
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: and you expect your job to be safe. You expect

537
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: me to rush to to to rehire you. No, that's

538
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 1: not how it works in the real world. And I

539
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: hope that whatever happens to these girls, I just hope

540
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 1: that they understand that this is a job and if

541
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: you don't perform, well, this is what happens to you.

542
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 2: I still go back to the people that I listed

543
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 2: in my opinion, these are something. These could be some

544
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 2: motivated people a table. I feel like it's motivated. I

545
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 2: feel like she's at a hungry at a hungry place.

546
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 2: And I don't mean that in a bad way, because

547
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 2: they already have the relationship with her at NBC Universal, Right,

548
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 2: so why not extend that Kim should be ready to work.

549
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: I think Kim will go back if they ask her to.

550
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: But I think I think there's a lot of politics

551
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: and personal feelings involved in that in that decision.

552
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 2: When we talk about politics, right, how much of network

553
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 2: politics play into a decision to hire or fire someone,

554
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 2: even at the expense of the show.

555
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: Listen, I will say this, Obviously, every networks ran and

556
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:18,719
Speaker 1: operated differently, right. One thing that I've always done I

557
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: don't take my personal feelings and apply it to casting

558
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: decisions on my shows. The only thing I apply with

559
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: my shows in terms of casting decisions is the performance value.

560
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 1: That's it. It's all I do performance value, and I'm

561
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: aware that some you know, there may be a season

562
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: you were great and there's a season where you fell off,

563
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 1: and typically, like anybody, you pick it back up the

564
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: next season. No one of my shows have coasted for

565
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 1: consecutive seasons. No, ma'am, it would. You would have to

566
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: make difficult decisions because you know, look, let's talk about

567
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: Love and Match for example, we are taping our upcoming

568
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 1: season right now, and I know people like Carlos you

569
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: rush to talk about other shows and not your own. Yes, honey,

570
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: because I get paid to produce a show for a network,

571
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to tell my rain drops some

572
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: tea about my shows when the network is paying me

573
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 1: to produce it in the current moment. So stop asking

574
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: me to rush to my claw fust to give y'all

575
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: breaking news on my shows, because I can't do it

576
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: because I am getting paid to make sure my shows

577
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: are sacred so y'all can watch it. Okay. I always

578
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: said this, though, I feel like when it comes to

579
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 1: the Housewives, I feel like a lot of it is

580
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: politics based on who they're casting or firing or who

581
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: they're keeping. There's a lot of people across all the

582
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: franchises when I'm like, why are they still on this show?

583
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,959
Speaker 1: There's nothing more to offer, you know, especially when the

584
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: Real Housewives brand is sink or swim, is you got one?

585
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: It's like the eminem eight mile song, you got one

586
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: shot to give it all you got and if you don't,

587
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 1: you're out of there. So that's the reason why Richie,

588
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: you see some desperation from these women, fighting for no

589
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 1: reason because they're like, I need to get a second season.

590
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: So yes, Unfortunately in some scenarios we're seeing that with Potomac.

591
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: If the goalpost is what we've seen, y'all got rid

592
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: of Charae after season four, and Charay had a great

593
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: season four when she went to Africa and the Hub

594
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: e but Marlowe, but y'all got rid of her. I

595
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: didn't say anything. It was like, well, damn, okay. I

596
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: guess that just means like, no, you got to bring

597
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: it every season. You can't coast and not saying she

598
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 1: was coasing. But that was their threshold. So when I

599
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 1: watch certain shows, I'm like I watched Jersey, I'm like,

600
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: why is she She's still on the show? And I

601
00:33:56,600 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 1: look at my own stuff. Right in terms of like, okay,

602
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: like I'm going through this right now. It's one of

603
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 1: those things to where you have to reassess every season

604
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 1: and say what's going on. And because I don't base

605
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: my decisions off of Twitter, there's people who champion some

606
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 1: of my cast members to be fired, like get rid

607
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: of her, she's mean, she's a bully, get rid of her,

608
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: get rid of him, get rid of them. You know.

609
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: I get that all the time, and I don't pay

610
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: attention to it because I know that at the end

611
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: of the day, you can love somebody one season and

612
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: hate them the next and go in and reverse. And

613
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 1: I also know that when one person has a fan base,

614
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 1: that fan base attacks the next person, and then that

615
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: fan base attacks this person. So I don't feed into

616
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 1: all of that. So what I do as a producer

617
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,359
Speaker 1: I sit back and I say, Okay, what do they

618
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: have going on coming into this season? And if I

619
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: feel like they don't have much going on, then you know,

620
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: some tough decisions have to be made, and that's just

621
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,760
Speaker 1: what it's going to have to be. But I definitely

622
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 1: think when it comes to Atlanta, I just think there's

623
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 1: so much politics and personal feelings, and I think that

624
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: would be the detriment of that show if they don't

625
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: get a right this upcoming season.

626
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 3: No.

627
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 2: I totally agree with you on that, And I think

628
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 2: there's also this thing of like, I'm not trying to

629
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 2: be in the bubble of people who say, oh I

630
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 2: don't like this person because I didn't like what they

631
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 2: necessarily what they get to the favorite person.

632
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 3: Yes, it is not that. It is for me.

633
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 2: I'm asking what are you able to contribute as we

634
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 2: move into this next space? Right, as we continue to

635
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 2: move forward, do you can I figure out a way

636
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 2: where we can still include you in this engine in

637
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 2: a meaningful way and still in your value?

638
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 3: Right?

639
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,319
Speaker 2: Yes, But if I don't see the value in it,

640
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 2: then I have to say, I mean just for me

641
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 2: as a this is just as a fan perspective, like

642
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 2: you can go. That's why I said that about Charade,

643
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 2: That's why I said that about Marlowe. It's nothing personal

644
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 2: against them. It is what are you giving me, right?

645
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: And what are you giving to the cast?

646
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: Do you want Sonya and Drew to go as well?

647
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,399
Speaker 3: Oh? Yes, they were not on my list at all. No, no, no, no.

648
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 2: The reason for the Drew situation, the reason we got

649
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: to drop Drew is because I feel like she really

650
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 2: gives nothing, Okay, and I don't believe her either. Okay,

651
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 2: that's the other thing. I think she's a great actress,

652
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 2: but like, for instance, with the whole Ralph situation, I

653
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 2: really feel like we didn't get all the stuff that

654
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,319
Speaker 2: was going on in the news. Nothing was like she

655
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,359
Speaker 2: didn't tell us anything. And granted not everything is for us.

656
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 2: I get that, but this is something that was a part,

657
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 2: a huge part of your store and this is a

658
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 2: big gap. And Sanya, to me, I evaluated a couple

659
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 2: of other things as well, what can you bring us

660
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 2: big events?

661
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,799
Speaker 3: And Sanya can do that? Right? Can you do?

662
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 2: You have the family? Sanya has that. But it's Sanyo're

663
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:18,839
Speaker 2: right for this group? No, In my opinion, she is

664
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 2: just not The personality is not where I feel like

665
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 2: I would want it.

666
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 3: And she seems like a very sweet woman. Yeah she is.

667
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 3: I'm not even gonna I'm not gonna.

668
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:32,280
Speaker 2: Lie about that, but personality wise, if you are a Kenya,

669
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 2: who's up here, okay, and you gotta Sanya, it's just like, oh,

670
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 2: the little bird is just flown in and she don't

671
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,800
Speaker 2: know what she's flying with these with the with the Hawk.

672
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,759
Speaker 1: Now listen. I will say this, Atlanta is a very

673
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 1: difficult city to cast, so I think that will be

674
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 1: their challenge too. But I'm looking forward to see what's

675
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: going on. And I'll leave you with this, Richie. So

676
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 1: I have a new shell coming out called Bold and Bougie.

677
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 1: It's based in Atlanta. It comes out in February. The

678
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,839
Speaker 1: date will be announced in a couple of days, so

679
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 1: stay tuned for that. But it's based in Atlanta. And

680
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: we have Malaysia Pargo from Basketball Wives, Tamika Foster Raymond,

681
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: the ex wife of Ushri. We got Crystal Rene, the

682
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 1: ex wife of Neo. We got Princess Batton Lofts, who

683
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,840
Speaker 1: was one of the producers developers of the Real Hospitals

684
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 1: of Atlanta. And then we have Goche Hawkins, who is

685
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 1: known online of Housewives as the woman with the blue

686
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: hair who told Dmitro so I also dated Roger Bob.

687
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: So we have them. And what I will say is

688
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: this because that show is based in Atlanta. So I'm

689
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,399
Speaker 1: going someplace with this, not just doing a shameless plug.

690
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: The beauty of this show, and Richie, this show is funny.

691
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: You're gonna love it. Because it's mature and it's funny,

692
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: and they're not throwing drinks on each other and they're

693
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 1: not like throwing shade for the sake of getting a moment.

694
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 1: It's real life stuff and it's real personal story and

695
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: it's funny. And the reason why I'm bringing the show

696
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 1: up is because it's an Atlanta based show with women

697
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 1: who live in Atlanta. And I don't see any of

698
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: those women in Atlanta Housewives. I just don't. I'm gonna

699
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:21,400
Speaker 1: tell you why. It's because these women have one common bond,

700
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: and that's the fact that in Atlanta, friendships are surfaced,

701
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 1: Like I see you at the parties or the branches

702
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 1: or the events, and we know each other, but do

703
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: really know each other. So you're about to watch a

704
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,839
Speaker 1: cast who all know each other, know of each other,

705
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,399
Speaker 1: but they're about to really get to know each other.

706
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: And Malaysia and Goshet are like the ones who bring

707
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: them together. And yeah, yeah, when you watch the season,

708
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 1: we'll come back to this because there's a force multiplier

709
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: who is multiplying and I'm like, I watch her work

710
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: like she's like the octopus who comes out and she

711
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: knows how to like get these people it's very interesting,

712
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 1: and she does it so smooth. And the beauty of

713
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:08,280
Speaker 1: this show is Malaysia is such a great piece of talent,

714
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: and you're going to see a side of her that

715
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 1: you have never seen on Basketball Wives. Like, she's not

716
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 1: this person who's gonna pick up a table and throw it.

717
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to give it away, but it's so interesting.

718
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: So when I was when I was watching these episodes

719
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: in the field taping the show, I really was like,

720
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:28,919
Speaker 1: it goes to show you that there is some life

721
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 1: still left in Atlanta. But there was no politics going

722
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,919
Speaker 1: into casting Bold and Bougie. It was finding the right

723
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: women who have this shared commonality. But how interesting is

724
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 1: it to watch a friendship develop and to see what

725
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: happens in the end. So when it comes to Land

726
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 1: of Housewives, it's one of those things where we missed

727
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:57,719
Speaker 1: the fact that you had women not best friends. Cynthia

728
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 1: and Nini met on the show. The only real friends

729
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: across all the franchises is Robin and Gizelle and Mary

730
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 1: Saw and Alexia. The rest of them are friends courtesy

731
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 1: of the shop. But my point is it goes to

732
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: show you that if you find the right mix of

733
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: people you can find people to form real friendships Cynthia

734
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: and Nini Phadrank, Candy Porchutt and Phaedra like. It can happen,

735
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: but you gotta find the right mix and make tough decisions.

736
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 1: And my hope is that Atlanta Housewives does that. But

737
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: as of now, the show is still on Paul's I

738
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: think in the next few months they'll get it right.

739
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,960
Speaker 3: It's so funny that you mentioned the new show.

740
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 2: I'm glad you did because I was breaking down a

741
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 2: clip earlier in my video of Evelyn and.

742
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 3: Jackie going at it.

743
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 2: I saw that and I was thinking to myself, how

744
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 2: odd it must be that these two women are fighting

745
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 2: over Malaysia. Who is never returning to that Well, I

746
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 2: can't say never, but I'm just saying, she got a

747
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 2: whole new show.

748
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 1: She ain't returning to that show. Baby, Malaysia is not

749
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 1: the Kingdom.

750
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 2: So I was in my mind, I was thinking, like,

751
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:12,359
Speaker 2: y'all fighting over something that has been Malaysia got a

752
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 2: whole new thing going on, and it just kind of

753
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 2: makes me kind of think about like it is Basketball

754
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 2: Wives going in a downward direct. I mean, that's a

755
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 2: whole other conversation. But it's just kind of like, you know,

756
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 2: I'm glad Malaysia is being utilized because I felt like

757
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 2: she was underutilized on Basketball Wives.

758
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,399
Speaker 1: You know, and I'm happy about it too. So yes,

759
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: I mean, look, we are rooting for the real hospitals

760
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 1: of Atlanta. We want to see it when despite what

761
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: you may want to read in between the lines or

762
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 1: think we're telling the truth, we do want the show

763
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,479
Speaker 1: to win. But I think in order for the show

764
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 1: to win, listen, you can hire anybody in the world,

765
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,399
Speaker 1: but got to make sure these women work and these

766
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 1: women have a clock in. And my hope is that

767
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 1: these women now feel it because when you're when you

768
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,880
Speaker 1: are so comfortable for so long, I think it's a
