<v Speaker 2>Hey, y'all. Good to be back. Good to be back.

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:43.800
<v Speaker 2>I love being a safe space. I always feel like

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.040
<v Speaker 2>when you're talking to somebody, it's like inviting them into

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:46.559
<v Speaker 2>your home.

0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:51.240
<v Speaker 1>Yes, but today we are going to talk about what

0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 1>the f is going on with the Real Housewives of Atlanta.

0:01:56.240 --> 0:02:01.160
<v Speaker 1>So recently Candy Burris did a lot I believe it

0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:05.000
<v Speaker 1>was an Amazon Live if I'm not mistaken, and the

0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:08.200
<v Speaker 1>fans were asking her like, what's going on with Atlanta Housewives?

0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Are you going back? I'm paraphrasing, of course, but she

0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:16.120
<v Speaker 1>says something along the lines of, we haven't heard anything

0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:19.840
<v Speaker 1>in terms of a real update. As far as she knows,

0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:24.640
<v Speaker 1>they're still casting. And one thing she said I got

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:30.359
<v Speaker 1>Twitter in an uproar and the comments were commenting is

0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:33.919
<v Speaker 1>when she said they think we don't have lies like

0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:36.680
<v Speaker 1>we have lies and nobody has time just to sit

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:41.320
<v Speaker 1>around a way for them, again paraphrasing, right, So Twitter

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 1>was in a shambles about this, and next thing I know,

0:02:45.639 --> 0:02:50.080
<v Speaker 1>the show is trending she's trending, and I wanted to

0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 1>talk to you because I watched your video about this

0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:55.919
<v Speaker 1>topic as well, and I just want to really get

0:02:55.919 --> 0:03:01.280
<v Speaker 1>your insight in terms of when you saw that video

0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 1>of her explaining what's happening with Atlanta. We are in January,

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>and just so the world knows, when I've worked on

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:13.040
<v Speaker 1>that show, we always filmed in June and the show

0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:18.040
<v Speaker 1>will always air in November. It is January, and in

0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>the words of Boys to Men, we're at the end

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:23.480
<v Speaker 1>of the road, honey, And in the words of Voice

0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:26.359
<v Speaker 1>to Men featuring Brianmandnight, it's snowing. So let us know.

0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:28.119
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:30.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if Atlanta's going to give us winter

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:33.359
<v Speaker 1>vibes Salta City, or are we going to get back

0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:37.400
<v Speaker 1>to filming in May and Atlanta. But as of today,

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 1>the Real Houseplots of Atlanta does not have a full cast,

0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 1>They do not have a schedule, and Candy has said

0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:48.720
<v Speaker 1>that they all have lives and it's pretty unfortunate that

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:51.680
<v Speaker 1>they don't have an update. What do you take of

0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 1>all of this.

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.040
<v Speaker 2>I think the first thing that was interesting to me

0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:59.119
<v Speaker 2>was kind of hearing Candy complain. Now, when I think

0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.080
<v Speaker 2>about Candy I tend to think of Candy as I

0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.040
<v Speaker 2>know this is going to sound bad, but I don't

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.320
<v Speaker 2>mean it to sound bad. I feel like she's more

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 2>of a company woman. And what I mean by that

0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 2>is somebody that knows how to play ball, you know,

0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:16.440
<v Speaker 2>knows when to go to work, clocks in, and is reliable.

0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.640
<v Speaker 2>And I think the network likes that about her. Right,

0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:23.000
<v Speaker 2>So it was interesting to me to hear what sounded

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:26.320
<v Speaker 2>like frustration on her part. What it made me think

0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:29.960
<v Speaker 2>about was the amount of times that she was quote

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:35.479
<v Speaker 2>unavailable last season, right, So people were complaining about how she,

0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:37.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, was kind of seeming like she was a

0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:41.400
<v Speaker 2>little out of it, you know, not really participating in

0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:44.360
<v Speaker 2>the cash trips or like kind of coming and leaving early.

0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 2>So my take on that was, Oh, she's trying to

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.359
<v Speaker 2>be prepared to get ahead of the ball so that

0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:53.640
<v Speaker 2>she can get that schedule straight so she don't have

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.840
<v Speaker 2>that same issue that she had last season.

0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:58.720
<v Speaker 3>That was my thought. As I listened to that, I was.

0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Like, Oh, she got memo and she's trying to make

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 2>sure she's ready and available.

0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I don't know if she wanted that memo. I

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.920
<v Speaker 1>think she wanted a deal memo. I think she wanted

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>the memo on the check, honey, that states where I'm

0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:15.040
<v Speaker 1>going to be at what time and what place at

0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 1>the end of the day. Let's have a real conversation, Richie.

0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 3>Let's have it.

0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 1>The Real house Spots of Atlanta is a Q check

0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:25.599
<v Speaker 1>and it's nothing to sneeze at. Now, when you have

0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>a consistent job, right, you know how to allocate your

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 1>funds accordingly to this. To this massive check that you're getting.

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 1>When you're getting upwards of two million dollars to film

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:43.000
<v Speaker 1>for four months, that's nothing to sneeze at. And I

0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:46.280
<v Speaker 1>think what's happening with a lot of the cast is

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>that's a lot of their income. Is the Real Housewives

0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>of Atlanta. I'm not saying that's Candy's whole income. Before

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:55.599
<v Speaker 1>people start, I wasn't suggesting that. What I'm saying is,

0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't care if you're Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, Steve

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:03.159
<v Speaker 1>Jobs Rest in Peace, or Steven Spielberg. Two million dollars

0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.080
<v Speaker 1>for four months of work is a lot of money.

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:08.440
<v Speaker 1>When I saw that video, I didn't think that it

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 1>was well, let me rearrange my schedule to shoot the

0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:15.039
<v Speaker 1>shy in Chicago. I took it as like, Yo, we're

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:18.200
<v Speaker 1>not going to be sitting waiting for you guys, because

0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.120
<v Speaker 1>we have to make money. We have to make money,

0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:25.719
<v Speaker 1>and we're trying to figure out where our income is

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:30.120
<v Speaker 1>coming from for this year. And I'm not mad at that.

0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:34.160
<v Speaker 1>I would think the same thing too, But what do

0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:37.359
<v Speaker 1>you think is happening? Because I didn't finish watching the

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:40.840
<v Speaker 1>last season of The Real Housewives Atlanta. Based on what

0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:44.200
<v Speaker 1>you saw, I'm assuming you finished the season, Richie. What

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 1>do you think is going on over there to where

0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:48.760
<v Speaker 1>I did. It's it's a delay.

0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.560
<v Speaker 2>A part of me wonders if they are trying to

0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:55.359
<v Speaker 2>maybe create some level of anticipation, some level of we're

0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:59.839
<v Speaker 2>missing the show and the franchise. I really have no idea,

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.760
<v Speaker 2>because in my mind, it doesn't really seem like the

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.679
<v Speaker 2>smart play to wait this long, because after a while,

0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:09.320
<v Speaker 2>I do feel like there's gonna be a lack of

0:07:09.440 --> 0:07:12.440
<v Speaker 2>interest involved. You know what I'm saying, Like one of

0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 2>the things that I feel like a show like Love

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:16.960
<v Speaker 2>and Marriatimes. I'm just using it as an example because

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 2>it was the last show I reviewed. Right gets so

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 2>right when April is coming and I know without a

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:29.360
<v Speaker 2>doubt normally that new season is coming and what has

0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:33.840
<v Speaker 2>happened in social media is not too far away from

0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 2>what's actually gonna air. That means to me, we're on

0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 2>target with the schedule. Okay, we're on target with it.

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:46.280
<v Speaker 2>So with this huge gap with for me, Real Housewives

0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:48.760
<v Speaker 2>of Atlanta, it's been four months since that shows going

0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:52.200
<v Speaker 2>off the air. Now, this is how I, in terms

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.280
<v Speaker 2>of Candy planning out her year, this is how I

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:58.440
<v Speaker 2>plan out mind right, because I'm thinking to myself, Potomac

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.360
<v Speaker 2>and marriat to Medicine are gonna end. What's gonna be

0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 2>your Sunday night show now? Because you won't have anything

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:06.680
<v Speaker 2>in the can. And so it would have made more

0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:09.120
<v Speaker 2>sense to me that Potomac is airing and that Real

0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Housewops of Atlanta is filming. When Married to Medicine and

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Potona go off boom, you got Real Housewives of Atlanta

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:19.119
<v Speaker 2>to take us from spring to fall, keep that cycle moving.

0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:21.760
<v Speaker 2>So now you're gonna be left with this gap. You know,

0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:24.320
<v Speaker 2>we're just gonna be left like on our Sunday nights,

0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:26.000
<v Speaker 2>like with nothing to do. And it's just that's gonna

0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 2>be a huge chunk of in my opinion content for

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:34.320
<v Speaker 2>people who look like me and you. It's just it's

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a huge void there. So that is concerning

0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:37.520
<v Speaker 2>to me.

0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:41.680
<v Speaker 1>No, I agree, Listen, there is a lot to be concerned.

0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 1>It concerned me. Season nine my last season of the

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:50.560
<v Speaker 1>Real Housewives of Atlanta. I just remember working on season nine,

0:08:50.760 --> 0:08:55.000
<v Speaker 1>and I remember feeling in my spirit, I was like,

0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 1>this is my last season. I just remember watching a

0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 1>group of smart, beautiful, talented, powerful women phoning it in.

0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:10.400
<v Speaker 1>I just remember it was this one scene and I

0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 1>remember them phoning it in, and that was a very

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 1>challenging season for me and for them it was. It

0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:20.760
<v Speaker 1>was challenging, and it turned out to be a great season.

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>It was a fantastic season overall, but a lot of

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:29.000
<v Speaker 1>work had to go into it, Richie, because they were

0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 1>phoning it in. And I remember having a conversation with

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.680
<v Speaker 1>them saying that you guys will not always be number one.

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 1>It is a privilege to be number one, and when

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:40.760
<v Speaker 1>you are number one, you can't get comfortable. And at

0:09:40.760 --> 0:09:44.200
<v Speaker 1>that time, Richie, season nine Atlanta Housewives was number one

0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:50.160
<v Speaker 1>for possibly maybe six to seven consecutive years. So imagine

0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.520
<v Speaker 1>seven years you have the number one show on the network.

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 1>At one point in time, they literally got comfortable. I'm

0:09:56.520 --> 0:09:59.920
<v Speaker 1>watching them be comfortable, and I'm watching them have conver

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:05.560
<v Speaker 1>stations about the most frivolous things that they didn't care about.

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:08.920
<v Speaker 1>And when I said that to them, I said, I'm

0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:13.079
<v Speaker 1>going to leave this show one day, and you're going

0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:18.199
<v Speaker 1>to miss having somebody push you to be great because

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:22.240
<v Speaker 1>you're pushing me away due to the fact that it's

0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:25.480
<v Speaker 1>a struggle to get anything out of you, ladies. And

0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:29.040
<v Speaker 1>when the time comes when you're not number one anymore,

0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I want you to think about this day and just

0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 1>always remember I try to help you. I try to

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:38.640
<v Speaker 1>help you. So it does sadden me to see what

0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:41.840
<v Speaker 1>this show has become, only because I gave them a

0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.360
<v Speaker 1>fair warning. And if you watch my interviews with some

0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:47.199
<v Speaker 1>of the Housewives of Atlanta, they'll tell you like, No

0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Lows was like whatever, so bays on what's been happening

0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:55.880
<v Speaker 1>these past couple of seasons. There has been this call

0:10:55.960 --> 0:11:01.200
<v Speaker 1>to action of doing something, of doing something drastic, because

0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:05.320
<v Speaker 1>we're missing the magic and a lot of people are

0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:09.520
<v Speaker 1>demanding a reboot. Now, you're also somebody who's watched the

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:12.640
<v Speaker 1>show since day one? Are you one of those people

0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:17.160
<v Speaker 1>who are championing for this show to have a reboot,

0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:22.640
<v Speaker 1>or do you think, no, let's keep half of the cast,

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.720
<v Speaker 1>all of the casts from last season and work with them.

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Where is your head at in this?

0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.360
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm so glad you asked me that, because

0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:34.400
<v Speaker 2>since we spoke earlier, I said, I need to really

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:37.520
<v Speaker 2>process this and I want to think about what the

0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:41.760
<v Speaker 2>best response is. Right, So I started like concocting a

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:44.480
<v Speaker 2>list of who I would want back and who I

0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:48.880
<v Speaker 2>think they need to bring on. So I think that

0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:51.680
<v Speaker 2>we need to do a sort of soft reboot, right,

0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.520
<v Speaker 2>similar to what they did with the row Housewives of

0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:56.640
<v Speaker 2>New York. You know, I think it was season six.

0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:59.720
<v Speaker 2>I said that earlier in my video, where they kept Ramona,

0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Luin and Sonya and they brought in three new ladies.

0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:03.800
<v Speaker 3>I felt like that gave the show.

0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:05.920
<v Speaker 2>And then I felt like they hit the sweet spot

0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.680
<v Speaker 2>the next season because they had sort of filtered through,

0:12:09.760 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 2>like what's working with this cast and how can we

0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:15.200
<v Speaker 2>finesse it to make it better? And then the next

0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:17.960
<v Speaker 2>season they brought in eight women and it was on

0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:21.080
<v Speaker 2>and popping. Not necessarily because it was eight women. I

0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:23.439
<v Speaker 2>think it was because the women who were on were

0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:26.240
<v Speaker 2>dynamic and they were willing to just give you whatever

0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:26.760
<v Speaker 2>you needed.

0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:27.040
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:31.120
<v Speaker 2>So, with that being said, my list in terms of

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:34.400
<v Speaker 2>what they should do, I think it's quite simple. I

0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:37.880
<v Speaker 2>feel like we keep I noticed is going to sound crazy,

0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.280
<v Speaker 2>We keep Kenya, and she doesn't quite fit with my idea,

0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:44.680
<v Speaker 2>my ideal theory for the group. But I do think

0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:46.960
<v Speaker 2>that the fans would be missing something. And I feel

0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:49.360
<v Speaker 2>like she knows what to do, you know what I mean,

0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:51.440
<v Speaker 2>Like she knows what to do when the camera turns on.

0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:54.080
<v Speaker 2>But I feel like Kenya needs somebody to work with.

0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:57.040
<v Speaker 2>So I think that's the only downside to that, But

0:12:57.080 --> 0:12:59.520
<v Speaker 2>I think I have a good solution for that. The

0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.360
<v Speaker 2>other thing is we need to pay the men Married

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:05.000
<v Speaker 2>to Medicine love and marry times Field. The men are active,

0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:06.840
<v Speaker 2>and I know that the men aren't being paid on

0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Married to Medicine, but I feel like when I look

0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:13.080
<v Speaker 2>back at past seasons of Atlanta, the men were active.

0:13:13.679 --> 0:13:16.960
<v Speaker 2>The men were active and activated, and they were a

0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:18.920
<v Speaker 2>huge part of the story, and I feel like we

0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:23.120
<v Speaker 2>lose that with just the women, right, we lose it.

0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:25.199
<v Speaker 2>So I feel like you got to get the men

0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.160
<v Speaker 2>on there. Let them have some mess, and in that regard,

0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:30.640
<v Speaker 2>I would bring on Tamar and I know this is

0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:31.920
<v Speaker 2>gonna sound controversial.

0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:32.920
<v Speaker 3>Jr.

0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:38.320
<v Speaker 2>Seems like he's ready for the mess. Okay, No shade Tamar.

0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.880
<v Speaker 2>She kind of swims in the mess too, like, and

0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:43.120
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, let's pay.

0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 3>Her for it.

0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, let's pay her for it. She's given us all

0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:49.320
<v Speaker 2>this free content on Instagram. No, girl, let's get you

0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:52.680
<v Speaker 2>paid for it. That way, we got something else for

0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Candy to do, okay, because I feel like Todd got

0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:58.920
<v Speaker 2>a muzzle on in the background, all right, and there's

0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:02.000
<v Speaker 2>no shady, But I feel like, Todd, come on, Todd,

0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:04.400
<v Speaker 2>get get into it, because I know you got opinions.

0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:05.439
<v Speaker 3>I know you got thoughts.

0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:10.600
<v Speaker 2>And then the Tamar and Jr and Candy and Todd

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:12.640
<v Speaker 2>of it all. I need to see how that's gonna

0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:14.520
<v Speaker 2>play out. I mean, if we're doing Shannan agains On

0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Married to Medicine, let's bring those Shenanigans to Real Housewives

0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:18.319
<v Speaker 2>of Atlanta.

0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:22.240
<v Speaker 1>It's the Shenanigans meeting the stunt casting a phedra.

0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:27.160
<v Speaker 3>I meant the is it a stunt cast for Sweet Tea?

0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:29.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh? That was a stunt cast? You break up? Somebody's

0:14:29.720 --> 0:14:32.400
<v Speaker 1>ex husband exactly that stunt cast.

0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:35.600
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, but in this situation, I feel like bringing

0:14:35.680 --> 0:14:39.360
<v Speaker 2>Tabar and bringing JR on. I feel like there's natural

0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:42.360
<v Speaker 2>tension between her and Candy because we know that they

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.720
<v Speaker 2>can work it out and they'll fall out again. It's

0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:47.880
<v Speaker 2>like the one of the best frenemy ships that I

0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:49.840
<v Speaker 2>think we've seen in a long time that we didn't

0:14:49.840 --> 0:14:53.920
<v Speaker 2>really realize we were getting. So I do feel like

0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:57.440
<v Speaker 2>everybody on there, I want them to have active families

0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 2>as well. That was another reason for me bringing in Table.

0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it works very well for some of your shows.

0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:06.240
<v Speaker 3>So active family.

0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.160
<v Speaker 2>When we go back to the core of what this

0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:12.680
<v Speaker 2>show is, you need an active family, and this is

0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 2>all Atlanta.

0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 3>It feels Atlanta to me.

0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:18.240
<v Speaker 2>The next thing I'm gonna say is, we got to

0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:20.280
<v Speaker 2>get rid of Chara, We got to get rid of Marlow.

0:15:20.680 --> 0:15:22.080
<v Speaker 3>I know. Let me tell you why.

0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:25.560
<v Speaker 2>I said, let me watch Traders because I need to

0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:28.520
<v Speaker 2>see what CHARAE gives me outside of Atlanta.

0:15:28.640 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 3>Right, and Charay fades into the background.

0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:34.400
<v Speaker 2>Definitely, she's a team player, but I think that's a

0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:35.600
<v Speaker 2>little bit of her issue.

0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:38.720
<v Speaker 3>She's she's I feel like she'll just do whatever you

0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.840
<v Speaker 3>want her to do. I just don't believe her.

0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Our mutual friend, Dustin Ross, he and I are recapping

0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Huntsville on the Reunion and on part two of the

0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Love and Marriage hunts for Reunion Melody allege that in

0:15:54.880 --> 0:16:00.080
<v Speaker 1>court Martell said under oath that he is not in

0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:04.600
<v Speaker 1>a relationship with Charae. They have a business relationship.

0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:06.880
<v Speaker 3>It is the paperwork.

0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:09.160
<v Speaker 4>You don't know what's in the paperwork, the same way

0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:11.360
<v Speaker 4>in the paperwork in the four case where you were

0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:14.200
<v Speaker 4>asked if you were in a relationship with shar Way

0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:16.280
<v Speaker 4>and you said it was a business arrangement. That's in

0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:20.240
<v Speaker 4>the paperwork too, verbati. You know, it's called the clerk typhon.

0:16:24.800 --> 0:16:28.040
<v Speaker 1>And then Dustin said, well, you know, Charae is a

0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:33.240
<v Speaker 1>known liar, paraphrazy. I know charm personally, Charae is one

0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:37.040
<v Speaker 1>about good girlfriends. So Richie and he gave me this

0:16:37.120 --> 0:16:41.080
<v Speaker 1>look like Carlos, you don't she lies about she? And

0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I said, wait, what are we doing here, This is

0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:46.600
<v Speaker 1>some of the fans for comedy. Carlos, you are tripping.

0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Charae is a no liar, And I'm like the chara

0:16:49.720 --> 0:16:52.320
<v Speaker 1>that I know. I don't see her as a liar.

0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 1>But what about But if I missing something.

0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:58.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna tell you. I'm gonna tell you, Yes, you

0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 2>can't see it. Because she's your friend. I'm sure you

0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:03.800
<v Speaker 2>get the real version of her. I feel like you

0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.880
<v Speaker 2>probably get a more authentic version because she ain't got

0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:10.399
<v Speaker 2>to act for no ratings or no check. Charay is

0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:14.280
<v Speaker 2>a legend, you know what I'm saying. She's legendary. I'm

0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:16.480
<v Speaker 2>not gonna take that away from her because I do

0:17:16.520 --> 0:17:20.800
<v Speaker 2>feel like she has that helped establish Atlanta. But I

0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:23.760
<v Speaker 2>just don't feel like she is part of the engine

0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:26.879
<v Speaker 2>that's going to keep it going. I just don't feel

0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:29.960
<v Speaker 2>like she got that thing right. Marlow, to me, is

0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:33.199
<v Speaker 2>the cog in the wheel making the bicycle not be

0:17:33.280 --> 0:17:33.920
<v Speaker 2>able to move.

0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:34.800
<v Speaker 3>You know what I'm saying.

0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:37.960
<v Speaker 2>Nobody can move forward because I feel like Marlow is

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:43.280
<v Speaker 2>creating drama for the sake of drama, Like there's nothing

0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:46.960
<v Speaker 2>going on there. I mean, there's just lay archive. I'm

0:17:47.160 --> 0:17:48.960
<v Speaker 2>happy for her and the boys. I feel like that

0:17:49.440 --> 0:17:53.640
<v Speaker 2>that is amazing and admirable, but no, you just created

0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:57.240
<v Speaker 2>too much Shenanigan's for me, and I just didn't believe it.

0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:00.879
<v Speaker 2>Whether that's her fault or whether that's whoever's thought they

0:18:00.920 --> 0:18:02.520
<v Speaker 2>told her to do it. I don't really know. All

0:18:02.560 --> 0:18:04.959
<v Speaker 2>I know is it just it's like watching, Like what

0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:07.520
<v Speaker 2>am I watching right now? Why this doesn't even it

0:18:07.560 --> 0:18:11.320
<v Speaker 2>doesn't feel like anything that does that make sense?

0:18:11.920 --> 0:18:14.480
<v Speaker 3>And when I'm watching I should feel something.

0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:18.680
<v Speaker 2>So I just can She's in the words of Jasmine

0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:26.040
<v Speaker 2>Henley Brown, she can be chopped, you know, love her

0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:28.400
<v Speaker 2>in the fashions, use her for some Ultimate Girls Trip

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:30.000
<v Speaker 2>stuff or some Trader stuff.

0:18:30.320 --> 0:18:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that no? To your point, I didn't even think

0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:37.560
<v Speaker 1>about going down this direction, But it's very interesting. Isn't

0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:40.800
<v Speaker 1>it interesting that they haven't used Marlowe for anything outside

0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:43.879
<v Speaker 1>of just being a housewife, because you would think with

0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:47.760
<v Speaker 1>her fashion like there could have been opportunities for Project

0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Runway appearance since we saw Gazelle on Project Runway, Giselle, Wendy,

0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, Like, to your point, why

0:18:55.240 --> 0:18:57.480
<v Speaker 1>wasn't she utilized for other stuff? I think all the

0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:00.800
<v Speaker 1>housewives from King I think Ultimate Girl's Trip, Charade, doing

0:19:00.840 --> 0:19:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Traders candy, having spin offs after spin offs have to

0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:07.560
<v Speaker 1>spin offs. I would consider Marlowe in terms of a

0:19:07.640 --> 0:19:10.840
<v Speaker 1>friend of she's an og as a friend of all

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.199
<v Speaker 1>the friends of in the history of the franchise of

0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:18.200
<v Speaker 1>her Housewife, she is an og for real, for real,

0:19:18.720 --> 0:19:24.360
<v Speaker 1>But to your point, she hasn't been utilized a lot.

0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:27.919
<v Speaker 1>And I never thought about this until this very moment.

0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:32.159
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if it's because, to your point, is the

0:19:32.240 --> 0:19:37.080
<v Speaker 1>audience connecting with her and if the network is connecting

0:19:37.200 --> 0:19:40.800
<v Speaker 1>with her, or is she just somebody that you said

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:44.159
<v Speaker 1>they see as like going there, starts in drama and

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:46.119
<v Speaker 1>go home.

0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:48.359
<v Speaker 2>I feel like that's it, and I feel like it

0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:51.719
<v Speaker 2>only expanded when she became a housewife, and that's not

0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:54.240
<v Speaker 2>what we look for in a housewife. I mean for

0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:57.320
<v Speaker 2>me as somebody who's I feel like been around, you

0:19:57.359 --> 0:19:58.360
<v Speaker 2>know since the.

0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:01.840
<v Speaker 3>Beginning and was watching early ages of this.

0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:04.679
<v Speaker 2>I just don't feel like she's it now if she

0:20:04.720 --> 0:20:07.399
<v Speaker 2>wants to be a friend and I'm listen, I was

0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:10.960
<v Speaker 2>campaigning for Marlowe to be a housewife, but once I

0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:13.080
<v Speaker 2>got it, I was like, oh no, no, send it back.

0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:16.520
<v Speaker 2>I would add in Kim and Croy. Here's why. They

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:18.959
<v Speaker 2>already got a lot of drama going on, so I

0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:20.720
<v Speaker 2>know the check will be easy to get to them,

0:20:20.760 --> 0:20:24.080
<v Speaker 2>like they'll probably take whatever you can I mean, whatever's

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:26.760
<v Speaker 2>being offer because they need it, right, that would humble

0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Kim enough to come back and actually go to work.

0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:33.280
<v Speaker 2>She didn't have to work before. I feel like, now

0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:36.080
<v Speaker 2>she's got to show up, she's got to give it.

0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 2>But they would have to live in separate places because

0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:42.080
<v Speaker 2>we can't have no police being called. Okay, I mean,

0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:44.119
<v Speaker 2>I feel like there's a way you can deal with

0:20:44.760 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 2>a sensitive divorce like this. You definitely saw it happen

0:20:48.080 --> 0:20:51.080
<v Speaker 2>on you know, we've seen it happen on Married to Me.

0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:53.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm pulling two shows that are my favorite shows right now,

0:20:54.000 --> 0:20:57.280
<v Speaker 2>Married to Medicine Love and Mary Tunsville. We've seen it

0:20:57.320 --> 0:21:00.639
<v Speaker 2>and we've seen it work for the show in the

0:21:00.800 --> 0:21:05.159
<v Speaker 2>sense that you explore what happens to these two people

0:21:05.800 --> 0:21:08.600
<v Speaker 2>when they part, and you don't just let one of

0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:11.280
<v Speaker 2>them fall off the radar. And I would love to

0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:16.359
<v Speaker 2>see how Kim integrates back into this group on a

0:21:16.400 --> 0:21:19.159
<v Speaker 2>more humble tip, like I would really love to see that.

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:22.800
<v Speaker 2>I would also bring in Porsia and Simon. I think

0:21:22.880 --> 0:21:26.040
<v Speaker 2>that there's an opportunity there, and Porscha is fun and

0:21:26.160 --> 0:21:29.480
<v Speaker 2>that is what is missing on this show, that sporadic

0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:33.720
<v Speaker 2>dose of just what does she just say we need

0:21:33.720 --> 0:21:36.639
<v Speaker 2>that on the show. I just feel like that's something

0:21:36.680 --> 0:21:39.480
<v Speaker 2>that's missing. And then I left a spot open for

0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:44.120
<v Speaker 2>like a a random I picked Robin Andrade.

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:46.200
<v Speaker 3>She is. She was from Ladies Who List.

0:21:46.600 --> 0:21:48.720
<v Speaker 2>She can help Kim look for a new house, and

0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:51.520
<v Speaker 2>I feel like she would also be a good foil

0:21:51.640 --> 0:21:54.439
<v Speaker 2>for Kenya as far as I know, two single women.

0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:57.000
<v Speaker 2>And I just kind of feel like I don't want

0:21:57.040 --> 0:22:00.680
<v Speaker 2>to make the show not about any women who aren't

0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.720
<v Speaker 2>yet married or who just happen to not be married,

0:22:03.880 --> 0:22:05.960
<v Speaker 2>because that could happen for them, and I feel like

0:22:05.960 --> 0:22:10.080
<v Speaker 2>the reality is the wives are gonna have some single girlfriends.

0:22:10.359 --> 0:22:14.520
<v Speaker 1>I have heard so many other people's lists. You are

0:22:14.560 --> 0:22:17.640
<v Speaker 1>the first and only person, Richie, whose list I am

0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:20.119
<v Speaker 1>not mad at. I can actually see that cast and

0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:25.200
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, I'm into it. And this is the

0:22:25.240 --> 0:22:28.520
<v Speaker 1>thing about Kim Zoziak Beerman, regardless how you feel about

0:22:28.520 --> 0:22:32.040
<v Speaker 1>her whatever. And I think that's the problem that I'm having,

0:22:32.600 --> 0:22:36.240
<v Speaker 1>is the fact that I think the decision makers care

0:22:36.400 --> 0:22:40.840
<v Speaker 1>so much about what folks on Twitter have to say.

0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:44.800
<v Speaker 1>And I have to remind people in the world population

0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:50.040
<v Speaker 1>only twelve percent of them on Twitter, and y'all based

0:22:50.160 --> 0:22:56.359
<v Speaker 1>some very difficult decisions based on the twelve percent of

0:22:56.480 --> 0:22:59.400
<v Speaker 1>people that's on this app, and of those twelve percent,

0:23:00.119 --> 0:23:03.960
<v Speaker 1>only six of them watch Housewives. That to me is

0:23:04.040 --> 0:23:07.680
<v Speaker 1>part of the other reason why the show has not

0:23:07.720 --> 0:23:10.480
<v Speaker 1>been the same, because I feel like decisions are made

0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:14.399
<v Speaker 1>about Twitter. I love Marlowe. Me and marlow are friends

0:23:14.400 --> 0:23:17.520
<v Speaker 1>in real life. I love Marlowe. You admitted to being

0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:22.320
<v Speaker 1>one of those people who wanted marlow to have a peach, right,

0:23:22.359 --> 0:23:24.800
<v Speaker 1>You're like, let's have a peach. A lot of people

0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:26.919
<v Speaker 1>wanted her to have a peach, and then when she

0:23:26.960 --> 0:23:29.000
<v Speaker 1>got the peach, those same people said, we don't want

0:23:29.000 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 1>her to have a peach nomore. So it's like, what

0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:33.600
<v Speaker 1>do y'all want? If we listen to the six percent

0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:37.040
<v Speaker 1>of people on Twitter who watches Housewives, that doesn't make

0:23:37.119 --> 0:23:39.480
<v Speaker 1>up for the rest of the world. It just doesn't.

0:23:39.800 --> 0:23:42.560
<v Speaker 1>And Kim Zosiak to me, I would love to see

0:23:42.600 --> 0:23:45.840
<v Speaker 1>her back on the show. I would love to see

0:23:46.400 --> 0:23:50.960
<v Speaker 1>her situation. I'm singing play out on TMZ and listen.

0:23:51.040 --> 0:23:53.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying bring her back as a peach holder.

0:23:53.160 --> 0:23:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it is a friend so that we can kind

0:23:55.240 --> 0:23:58.360
<v Speaker 1>of see what she gives. But I think the general

0:23:58.400 --> 0:24:02.600
<v Speaker 1>consensus is some I think drastic has to happen. One

0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:04.919
<v Speaker 1>of the things that I'm realizing that's happening with the

0:24:04.920 --> 0:24:09.440
<v Speaker 1>show is this, I think the decision makers know they

0:24:09.480 --> 0:24:12.720
<v Speaker 1>have to get it right. I think Atlanta is at

0:24:12.720 --> 0:24:17.840
<v Speaker 1>this very crucial place in the show to where I'm

0:24:17.880 --> 0:24:19.800
<v Speaker 1>not afraid the show being canceled, because I don't think

0:24:19.800 --> 0:24:21.439
<v Speaker 1>the show will ever be canceled because at the end

0:24:21.440 --> 0:24:23.960
<v Speaker 1>of the day, the ratings are good enough to where

0:24:24.400 --> 0:24:28.440
<v Speaker 1>advertisers can make interest on the investment that they made

0:24:28.520 --> 0:24:31.200
<v Speaker 1>during the commercials, So the show would never be canceled.

0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:33.800
<v Speaker 1>But I think it's one of those shows to where

0:24:34.600 --> 0:24:37.640
<v Speaker 1>it will possibly be on a real Housewives of Dallas

0:24:37.680 --> 0:24:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Pauls if they don't get it right. Because the fact

0:24:42.200 --> 0:24:47.160
<v Speaker 1>that this show was number one for almost seven consecutive years,

0:24:47.320 --> 0:24:51.200
<v Speaker 1>and don't I think it's maybe number three or four.

0:24:51.840 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know number one obviously, as you know, it's

0:24:54.080 --> 0:24:58.120
<v Speaker 1>Beverly Hills Housewives. Below deck is high up there. All

0:24:58.240 --> 0:25:01.040
<v Speaker 1>that The Pump Rules is an example of a show

0:25:01.119 --> 0:25:03.919
<v Speaker 1>that that ratings have done well.

0:25:04.240 --> 0:25:06.080
<v Speaker 2>One of the things that I felt like for me.

0:25:06.960 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Now I can't say whether or not everybody agrees with this,

0:25:10.760 --> 0:25:15.119
<v Speaker 2>but I feel like I am actually really loving this

0:25:15.200 --> 0:25:19.600
<v Speaker 2>season of Beverly Hills because I don't feel like the

0:25:19.800 --> 0:25:23.800
<v Speaker 2>focus is on just the fight right. Yes, I'm at

0:25:23.800 --> 0:25:26.399
<v Speaker 2>a point now I don't care about the scandal of

0:25:26.400 --> 0:25:31.120
<v Speaker 2>it all. I want to see dynamic personalities, intriguing stories,

0:25:31.280 --> 0:25:35.280
<v Speaker 2>and what people call storylines. I just think of it

0:25:35.320 --> 0:25:38.520
<v Speaker 2>as what is your personal story, what is your journey? Like,

0:25:38.600 --> 0:25:41.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't need you to have this whole thing plotted

0:25:41.080 --> 0:25:42.800
<v Speaker 2>out for the year. I just need you to have

0:25:42.880 --> 0:25:45.800
<v Speaker 2>an interesting life. That's where I'm at right now with it,

0:25:46.119 --> 0:25:49.359
<v Speaker 2>and that's what is intriguing because I feel like they're

0:25:49.359 --> 0:25:52.560
<v Speaker 2>pacing it, They're pacing themselves, They're just the stories are

0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:56.359
<v Speaker 2>just are just developing and new things are happening. And

0:25:56.400 --> 0:25:58.840
<v Speaker 2>where I have a like for Erica and I just

0:25:58.920 --> 0:26:00.359
<v Speaker 2>I didn't even like I didn't like her for the

0:26:00.400 --> 0:26:04.119
<v Speaker 2>past three seasons, Wow, I'm enjoying her now. So it

0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:06.959
<v Speaker 2>just feels different. And I do feel you that it

0:26:07.040 --> 0:26:10.800
<v Speaker 2>is make or break at this point. But I think

0:26:10.840 --> 0:26:13.840
<v Speaker 2>that at least with the list that I felt like

0:26:13.920 --> 0:26:18.159
<v Speaker 2>I came up with, I tried to focus it on personalities. Yes,

0:26:18.920 --> 0:26:22.000
<v Speaker 2>and I think that's what makes Atlanta so hard because

0:26:22.800 --> 0:26:26.600
<v Speaker 2>they've got such big personalities. I think it's hard to

0:26:26.640 --> 0:26:29.760
<v Speaker 2>bring in a person that we don't know. It would

0:26:29.760 --> 0:26:33.119
<v Speaker 2>be hard to It could be hard to find a Monica, right.

0:26:33.600 --> 0:26:37.280
<v Speaker 1>I Carlos King the first. If you're out there, I'm

0:26:37.320 --> 0:26:40.960
<v Speaker 1>looking for the black Monica Garcia. If you're out there,

0:26:41.080 --> 0:26:45.239
<v Speaker 1>please DM me, email me. Carlos King is making a

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:48.760
<v Speaker 1>call to action, a public declaration. I am looking for

0:26:48.920 --> 0:26:52.800
<v Speaker 1>the black Monica Garcia. And if you exist, I don't

0:26:52.800 --> 0:26:55.760
<v Speaker 1>care where you are. I would build a show around you. Okay.

0:26:56.240 --> 0:26:59.760
<v Speaker 1>I built a show around Melody Hilton Huntsville, so let's

0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:03.040
<v Speaker 1>I've built a show Avola teacher Pearson in Jackson, Mississippi.

0:27:03.359 --> 0:27:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Don't play with my skill set. If you are somebody

0:27:07.320 --> 0:27:12.600
<v Speaker 1>that considers yourself the black Monica Garcia called Carlos Key

0:27:13.000 --> 0:27:16.240
<v Speaker 1>at what eight hundred find me? But you're right, you're right.

0:27:16.520 --> 0:27:19.159
<v Speaker 1>It's so it's a make up break season for them.

0:27:19.600 --> 0:27:23.920
<v Speaker 1>What I think is happening is they want to get

0:27:23.960 --> 0:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>it right, and it's it's not something to where they

0:27:28.040 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 1>feel like we have a whole missing, to where we

0:27:31.680 --> 0:27:34.800
<v Speaker 1>gotta fell it right. I think they probably have things

0:27:34.800 --> 0:27:38.399
<v Speaker 1>in development that can like take the place of the

0:27:38.440 --> 0:27:42.159
<v Speaker 1>time slot. But I do think this. I like to

0:27:42.200 --> 0:27:48.439
<v Speaker 1>relate these celebrity issues with everyday people. At the end

0:27:48.480 --> 0:27:50.960
<v Speaker 1>of the day, these women were getting paid. Some are

0:27:51.000 --> 0:27:53.120
<v Speaker 1>getting paid more than two million dollars for four months

0:27:53.119 --> 0:27:55.480
<v Speaker 1>of work. A large part of that we're getting paid

0:27:55.480 --> 0:27:58.480
<v Speaker 1>over one million dollars for four months of work. You

0:27:58.680 --> 0:28:04.240
<v Speaker 1>are an entrepreneur, just like me, right, I sign checks, okay,

0:28:04.760 --> 0:28:07.439
<v Speaker 1>and this is coming from somebody who signs checks with

0:28:07.560 --> 0:28:11.960
<v Speaker 1>my production company. If I'm paying somebody a salary of

0:28:12.040 --> 0:28:16.520
<v Speaker 1>two million dollars for four months of work and I

0:28:16.560 --> 0:28:20.520
<v Speaker 1>feel like you've been coasting for a year or two,

0:28:21.080 --> 0:28:23.359
<v Speaker 1>you better believe I'm going to take my time to

0:28:23.400 --> 0:28:25.720
<v Speaker 1>figure this out. I don't know anybody in the world,

0:28:25.920 --> 0:28:28.400
<v Speaker 1>or any job in the world where you can get

0:28:28.400 --> 0:28:32.320
<v Speaker 1>paid two million dollars for four months of work and

0:28:32.400 --> 0:28:35.560
<v Speaker 1>give nothing. It's to me, it's the goal of the

0:28:35.600 --> 0:28:39.680
<v Speaker 1>privilege that you can sit up there and get paid

0:28:39.720 --> 0:28:43.880
<v Speaker 1>so much money and not even give everything to the work.

0:28:44.400 --> 0:28:47.880
<v Speaker 1>And now that the work is not there anymore, I'm

0:28:47.920 --> 0:28:53.520
<v Speaker 1>now feeling what it's like when your employer is putting

0:28:53.520 --> 0:28:56.880
<v Speaker 1>you on notice because of the high salary. We all

0:28:56.920 --> 0:28:59.600
<v Speaker 1>go through that in America every day. People go through

0:28:59.600 --> 0:29:01.959
<v Speaker 1>that all the time time. So and I love all

0:29:01.960 --> 0:29:04.400
<v Speaker 1>the girls, I really do, you know that, and some

0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:07.440
<v Speaker 1>of them are my friends. I don't feel sorry for

0:29:07.560 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 1>anybody who made that much money and didn't do one

0:29:12.240 --> 0:29:16.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent of the work. And you're now wondering, like,

0:29:16.640 --> 0:29:18.920
<v Speaker 1>what's going on with this show? That should have been

0:29:18.960 --> 0:29:22.880
<v Speaker 1>your focus day one when you were making this gross

0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:27.960
<v Speaker 1>amount of money. And I agree with the decision makers.

0:29:28.280 --> 0:29:31.479
<v Speaker 1>I will take my time too. That's richie, that's a

0:29:31.560 --> 0:29:34.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of money. You want me to open up the

0:29:34.040 --> 0:29:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Brinks truck give out at least at least eight million

0:29:38.080 --> 0:29:40.760
<v Speaker 1>dollars for the entire cast. Okay, let's just say it's

0:29:40.760 --> 0:29:43.680
<v Speaker 1>eight million total for all the cast members. You want

0:29:43.720 --> 0:29:48.600
<v Speaker 1>me to rush a decision of investing eight million dollars

0:29:48.600 --> 0:29:54.280
<v Speaker 1>into something that hasn't been great. I don't know nobody's

0:29:54.360 --> 0:29:57.480
<v Speaker 1>job performance where you can be the number one employee

0:29:58.160 --> 0:30:01.160
<v Speaker 1>and slide all the way down to number three or four,

0:30:01.800 --> 0:30:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and you expect your job to be safe. You expect

0:30:04.280 --> 0:30:09.480
<v Speaker 1>me to rush to to to rehire you. No, that's

0:30:09.480 --> 0:30:12.240
<v Speaker 1>not how it works in the real world. And I

0:30:12.280 --> 0:30:16.360
<v Speaker 1>hope that whatever happens to these girls, I just hope

0:30:16.360 --> 0:30:20.480
<v Speaker 1>that they understand that this is a job and if

0:30:20.480 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 1>you don't perform, well, this is what happens to you.

0:30:23.760 --> 0:30:26.840
<v Speaker 2>I still go back to the people that I listed

0:30:27.600 --> 0:30:30.160
<v Speaker 2>in my opinion, these are something. These could be some

0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:34.080
<v Speaker 2>motivated people a table. I feel like it's motivated. I

0:30:34.080 --> 0:30:36.400
<v Speaker 2>feel like she's at a hungry at a hungry place.

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:38.200
<v Speaker 2>And I don't mean that in a bad way, because

0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:41.360
<v Speaker 2>they already have the relationship with her at NBC Universal, Right,

0:30:41.720 --> 0:30:44.360
<v Speaker 2>so why not extend that Kim should be ready to work.

0:30:44.680 --> 0:30:46.480
<v Speaker 1>I think Kim will go back if they ask her to.

0:30:46.960 --> 0:30:49.760
<v Speaker 1>But I think I think there's a lot of politics

0:30:49.800 --> 0:30:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and personal feelings involved in that in that decision.

0:30:53.040 --> 0:30:57.600
<v Speaker 2>When we talk about politics, right, how much of network

0:30:57.840 --> 0:31:04.120
<v Speaker 2>politics play into a decision to hire or fire someone,

0:31:04.400 --> 0:31:07.640
<v Speaker 2>even at the expense of the show.

0:31:08.840 --> 0:31:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Listen, I will say this, Obviously, every networks ran and

0:31:14.120 --> 0:31:18.719
<v Speaker 1>operated differently, right. One thing that I've always done I

0:31:18.800 --> 0:31:24.320
<v Speaker 1>don't take my personal feelings and apply it to casting

0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:28.480
<v Speaker 1>decisions on my shows. The only thing I apply with

0:31:28.760 --> 0:31:33.440
<v Speaker 1>my shows in terms of casting decisions is the performance value.

0:31:33.600 --> 0:31:36.960
<v Speaker 1>That's it. It's all I do performance value, and I'm

0:31:36.960 --> 0:31:39.040
<v Speaker 1>aware that some you know, there may be a season

0:31:39.040 --> 0:31:41.360
<v Speaker 1>you were great and there's a season where you fell off,

0:31:41.800 --> 0:31:45.160
<v Speaker 1>and typically, like anybody, you pick it back up the

0:31:45.160 --> 0:31:50.240
<v Speaker 1>next season. No one of my shows have coasted for

0:31:51.280 --> 0:31:55.120
<v Speaker 1>consecutive seasons. No, ma'am, it would. You would have to

0:31:55.200 --> 0:31:58.880
<v Speaker 1>make difficult decisions because you know, look, let's talk about

0:31:59.320 --> 0:32:03.320
<v Speaker 1>Love and Match for example, we are taping our upcoming

0:32:03.360 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 1>season right now, and I know people like Carlos you

0:32:05.880 --> 0:32:09.440
<v Speaker 1>rush to talk about other shows and not your own. Yes, honey,

0:32:09.800 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 1>because I get paid to produce a show for a network,

0:32:16.000 --> 0:32:20.120
<v Speaker 1>and I'm not going to tell my rain drops some

0:32:20.240 --> 0:32:23.080
<v Speaker 1>tea about my shows when the network is paying me

0:32:23.160 --> 0:32:25.840
<v Speaker 1>to produce it in the current moment. So stop asking

0:32:25.880 --> 0:32:28.680
<v Speaker 1>me to rush to my claw fust to give y'all

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:32.160
<v Speaker 1>breaking news on my shows, because I can't do it

0:32:32.560 --> 0:32:36.680
<v Speaker 1>because I am getting paid to make sure my shows

0:32:36.920 --> 0:32:40.920
<v Speaker 1>are sacred so y'all can watch it. Okay. I always

0:32:40.960 --> 0:32:43.600
<v Speaker 1>said this, though, I feel like when it comes to

0:32:44.520 --> 0:32:47.400
<v Speaker 1>the Housewives, I feel like a lot of it is

0:32:47.440 --> 0:32:50.440
<v Speaker 1>politics based on who they're casting or firing or who

0:32:50.440 --> 0:32:53.640
<v Speaker 1>they're keeping. There's a lot of people across all the

0:32:53.680 --> 0:32:57.160
<v Speaker 1>franchises when I'm like, why are they still on this show?

0:32:57.320 --> 0:33:00.959
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing more to offer, you know, especially when the

0:33:00.960 --> 0:33:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Real Housewives brand is sink or swim, is you got one?

0:33:05.840 --> 0:33:08.080
<v Speaker 1>It's like the eminem eight mile song, you got one

0:33:08.160 --> 0:33:11.280
<v Speaker 1>shot to give it all you got and if you don't,

0:33:11.280 --> 0:33:14.000
<v Speaker 1>you're out of there. So that's the reason why Richie,

0:33:14.280 --> 0:33:17.400
<v Speaker 1>you see some desperation from these women, fighting for no

0:33:17.480 --> 0:33:20.360
<v Speaker 1>reason because they're like, I need to get a second season.

0:33:20.840 --> 0:33:26.480
<v Speaker 1>So yes, Unfortunately in some scenarios we're seeing that with Potomac.

0:33:26.760 --> 0:33:30.360
<v Speaker 1>If the goalpost is what we've seen, y'all got rid

0:33:30.360 --> 0:33:34.320
<v Speaker 1>of Charae after season four, and Charay had a great

0:33:34.360 --> 0:33:37.000
<v Speaker 1>season four when she went to Africa and the Hub

0:33:37.080 --> 0:33:40.640
<v Speaker 1>e but Marlowe, but y'all got rid of her. I

0:33:40.640 --> 0:33:43.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't say anything. It was like, well, damn, okay. I

0:33:43.040 --> 0:33:44.680
<v Speaker 1>guess that just means like, no, you got to bring

0:33:44.720 --> 0:33:47.000
<v Speaker 1>it every season. You can't coast and not saying she

0:33:47.040 --> 0:33:49.960
<v Speaker 1>was coasing. But that was their threshold. So when I

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:52.840
<v Speaker 1>watch certain shows, I'm like I watched Jersey, I'm like,

0:33:53.120 --> 0:33:56.520
<v Speaker 1>why is she She's still on the show? And I

0:33:56.600 --> 0:34:00.240
<v Speaker 1>look at my own stuff. Right in terms of like, okay,

0:34:00.280 --> 0:34:03.120
<v Speaker 1>like I'm going through this right now. It's one of

0:34:03.160 --> 0:34:07.240
<v Speaker 1>those things to where you have to reassess every season

0:34:07.320 --> 0:34:10.440
<v Speaker 1>and say what's going on. And because I don't base

0:34:10.480 --> 0:34:14.520
<v Speaker 1>my decisions off of Twitter, there's people who champion some

0:34:14.560 --> 0:34:17.480
<v Speaker 1>of my cast members to be fired, like get rid

0:34:17.520 --> 0:34:20.040
<v Speaker 1>of her, she's mean, she's a bully, get rid of her,

0:34:20.400 --> 0:34:22.719
<v Speaker 1>get rid of him, get rid of them. You know.

0:34:22.920 --> 0:34:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I get that all the time, and I don't pay

0:34:26.280 --> 0:34:31.000
<v Speaker 1>attention to it because I know that at the end

0:34:31.000 --> 0:34:33.680
<v Speaker 1>of the day, you can love somebody one season and

0:34:33.719 --> 0:34:36.120
<v Speaker 1>hate them the next and go in and reverse. And

0:34:36.120 --> 0:34:38.880
<v Speaker 1>I also know that when one person has a fan base,

0:34:39.320 --> 0:34:41.879
<v Speaker 1>that fan base attacks the next person, and then that

0:34:41.920 --> 0:34:44.600
<v Speaker 1>fan base attacks this person. So I don't feed into

0:34:44.600 --> 0:34:47.680
<v Speaker 1>all of that. So what I do as a producer

0:34:48.080 --> 0:34:51.359
<v Speaker 1>I sit back and I say, Okay, what do they

0:34:51.400 --> 0:34:54.640
<v Speaker 1>have going on coming into this season? And if I

0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:57.160
<v Speaker 1>feel like they don't have much going on, then you know,

0:34:57.239 --> 0:35:00.120
<v Speaker 1>some tough decisions have to be made, and that's just

0:35:00.239 --> 0:35:02.760
<v Speaker 1>what it's going to have to be. But I definitely

0:35:02.800 --> 0:35:05.440
<v Speaker 1>think when it comes to Atlanta, I just think there's

0:35:05.520 --> 0:35:09.880
<v Speaker 1>so much politics and personal feelings, and I think that

0:35:09.920 --> 0:35:15.160
<v Speaker 1>would be the detriment of that show if they don't

0:35:15.200 --> 0:35:17.040
<v Speaker 1>get a right this upcoming season.

0:35:17.320 --> 0:35:17.480
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:35:18.000 --> 0:35:19.759
<v Speaker 2>I totally agree with you on that, And I think

0:35:19.760 --> 0:35:22.759
<v Speaker 2>there's also this thing of like, I'm not trying to

0:35:22.800 --> 0:35:26.440
<v Speaker 2>be in the bubble of people who say, oh I

0:35:26.440 --> 0:35:28.719
<v Speaker 2>don't like this person because I didn't like what they

0:35:29.280 --> 0:35:32.240
<v Speaker 2>necessarily what they get to the favorite person.

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:34.640
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it is not that. It is for me.

0:35:34.760 --> 0:35:38.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm asking what are you able to contribute as we

0:35:38.920 --> 0:35:43.160
<v Speaker 2>move into this next space? Right, as we continue to

0:35:43.200 --> 0:35:45.600
<v Speaker 2>move forward, do you can I figure out a way

0:35:46.160 --> 0:35:49.520
<v Speaker 2>where we can still include you in this engine in

0:35:49.560 --> 0:35:54.080
<v Speaker 2>a meaningful way and still in your value?

0:35:54.280 --> 0:35:54.520
<v Speaker 3>Right?

0:35:54.640 --> 0:35:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Yes, But if I don't see the value in it,

0:35:57.400 --> 0:35:59.560
<v Speaker 2>then I have to say, I mean just for me

0:35:59.680 --> 0:36:02.120
<v Speaker 2>as a this is just as a fan perspective, like

0:36:02.440 --> 0:36:05.080
<v Speaker 2>you can go. That's why I said that about Charade,

0:36:05.080 --> 0:36:08.040
<v Speaker 2>That's why I said that about Marlowe. It's nothing personal

0:36:08.160 --> 0:36:11.920
<v Speaker 2>against them. It is what are you giving me, right?

0:36:12.400 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 2>And what are you giving to the cast?

0:36:14.840 --> 0:36:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Do you want Sonya and Drew to go as well?

0:36:17.560 --> 0:36:21.399
<v Speaker 3>Oh? Yes, they were not on my list at all. No, no, no, no.

0:36:21.760 --> 0:36:24.920
<v Speaker 2>The reason for the Drew situation, the reason we got

0:36:24.960 --> 0:36:30.640
<v Speaker 2>to drop Drew is because I feel like she really

0:36:30.680 --> 0:36:35.960
<v Speaker 2>gives nothing, Okay, and I don't believe her either. Okay,

0:36:36.040 --> 0:36:38.680
<v Speaker 2>that's the other thing. I think she's a great actress,

0:36:38.960 --> 0:36:43.880
<v Speaker 2>but like, for instance, with the whole Ralph situation, I

0:36:43.960 --> 0:36:46.480
<v Speaker 2>really feel like we didn't get all the stuff that

0:36:46.520 --> 0:36:49.319
<v Speaker 2>was going on in the news. Nothing was like she

0:36:49.400 --> 0:36:53.359
<v Speaker 2>didn't tell us anything. And granted not everything is for us.

0:36:53.400 --> 0:36:56.480
<v Speaker 2>I get that, but this is something that was a part,

0:36:56.600 --> 0:36:58.600
<v Speaker 2>a huge part of your store and this is a

0:36:58.600 --> 0:37:02.279
<v Speaker 2>big gap. And Sanya, to me, I evaluated a couple

0:37:02.360 --> 0:37:04.719
<v Speaker 2>of other things as well, what can you bring us

0:37:04.760 --> 0:37:05.480
<v Speaker 2>big events?

0:37:06.040 --> 0:37:08.799
<v Speaker 3>And Sanya can do that? Right? Can you do?

0:37:08.880 --> 0:37:13.200
<v Speaker 2>You have the family? Sanya has that. But it's Sanyo're

0:37:13.320 --> 0:37:18.839
<v Speaker 2>right for this group? No, In my opinion, she is

0:37:19.120 --> 0:37:23.239
<v Speaker 2>just not The personality is not where I feel like

0:37:23.320 --> 0:37:23.960
<v Speaker 2>I would want it.

0:37:24.000 --> 0:37:26.960
<v Speaker 3>And she seems like a very sweet woman. Yeah she is.

0:37:27.200 --> 0:37:28.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm not even gonna I'm not gonna.

0:37:28.600 --> 0:37:32.280
<v Speaker 2>Lie about that, but personality wise, if you are a Kenya,

0:37:32.360 --> 0:37:36.719
<v Speaker 2>who's up here, okay, and you gotta Sanya, it's just like, oh,

0:37:37.160 --> 0:37:39.399
<v Speaker 2>the little bird is just flown in and she don't

0:37:39.440 --> 0:37:41.800
<v Speaker 2>know what she's flying with these with the with the Hawk.

0:37:42.000 --> 0:37:46.759
<v Speaker 1>Now listen. I will say this, Atlanta is a very

0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:51.320
<v Speaker 1>difficult city to cast, so I think that will be

0:37:51.360 --> 0:37:53.279
<v Speaker 1>their challenge too. But I'm looking forward to see what's

0:37:53.320 --> 0:37:56.920
<v Speaker 1>going on. And I'll leave you with this, Richie. So

0:37:57.000 --> 0:37:59.799
<v Speaker 1>I have a new shell coming out called Bold and Bougie.

0:38:00.280 --> 0:38:04.279
<v Speaker 1>It's based in Atlanta. It comes out in February. The

0:38:04.880 --> 0:38:07.839
<v Speaker 1>date will be announced in a couple of days, so

0:38:07.920 --> 0:38:10.719
<v Speaker 1>stay tuned for that. But it's based in Atlanta. And

0:38:10.760 --> 0:38:14.680
<v Speaker 1>we have Malaysia Pargo from Basketball Wives, Tamika Foster Raymond,

0:38:14.760 --> 0:38:18.040
<v Speaker 1>the ex wife of Ushri. We got Crystal Rene, the

0:38:18.120 --> 0:38:21.799
<v Speaker 1>ex wife of Neo. We got Princess Batton Lofts, who

0:38:21.840 --> 0:38:24.840
<v Speaker 1>was one of the producers developers of the Real Hospitals

0:38:24.840 --> 0:38:28.840
<v Speaker 1>of Atlanta. And then we have Goche Hawkins, who is

0:38:28.960 --> 0:38:31.680
<v Speaker 1>known online of Housewives as the woman with the blue

0:38:31.680 --> 0:38:36.640
<v Speaker 1>hair who told Dmitro so I also dated Roger Bob.

0:38:36.880 --> 0:38:39.560
<v Speaker 1>So we have them. And what I will say is

0:38:39.640 --> 0:38:41.879
<v Speaker 1>this because that show is based in Atlanta. So I'm

0:38:41.880 --> 0:38:44.399
<v Speaker 1>going someplace with this, not just doing a shameless plug.

0:38:44.719 --> 0:38:49.200
<v Speaker 1>The beauty of this show, and Richie, this show is funny.

0:38:49.320 --> 0:38:52.560
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna love it. Because it's mature and it's funny,

0:38:53.080 --> 0:38:55.680
<v Speaker 1>and they're not throwing drinks on each other and they're

0:38:55.760 --> 0:38:58.840
<v Speaker 1>not like throwing shade for the sake of getting a moment.

0:38:59.760 --> 0:39:02.400
<v Speaker 1>It's real life stuff and it's real personal story and

0:39:02.440 --> 0:39:05.520
<v Speaker 1>it's funny. And the reason why I'm bringing the show

0:39:05.640 --> 0:39:09.080
<v Speaker 1>up is because it's an Atlanta based show with women

0:39:09.080 --> 0:39:11.840
<v Speaker 1>who live in Atlanta. And I don't see any of

0:39:11.840 --> 0:39:14.200
<v Speaker 1>those women in Atlanta Housewives. I just don't. I'm gonna

0:39:14.200 --> 0:39:21.400
<v Speaker 1>tell you why. It's because these women have one common bond,

0:39:21.920 --> 0:39:26.160
<v Speaker 1>and that's the fact that in Atlanta, friendships are surfaced,

0:39:26.680 --> 0:39:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Like I see you at the parties or the branches

0:39:29.760 --> 0:39:32.880
<v Speaker 1>or the events, and we know each other, but do

0:39:33.160 --> 0:39:35.520
<v Speaker 1>really know each other. So you're about to watch a

0:39:35.560 --> 0:39:37.839
<v Speaker 1>cast who all know each other, know of each other,

0:39:38.160 --> 0:39:40.399
<v Speaker 1>but they're about to really get to know each other.

0:39:40.560 --> 0:39:43.640
<v Speaker 1>And Malaysia and Goshet are like the ones who bring

0:39:43.760 --> 0:39:48.640
<v Speaker 1>them together. And yeah, yeah, when you watch the season,

0:39:48.680 --> 0:39:51.360
<v Speaker 1>we'll come back to this because there's a force multiplier

0:39:51.680 --> 0:39:54.600
<v Speaker 1>who is multiplying and I'm like, I watch her work

0:39:54.719 --> 0:39:57.600
<v Speaker 1>like she's like the octopus who comes out and she

0:39:58.480 --> 0:40:01.880
<v Speaker 1>knows how to like get these people it's very interesting,

0:40:01.880 --> 0:40:04.360
<v Speaker 1>and she does it so smooth. And the beauty of

0:40:04.400 --> 0:40:08.280
<v Speaker 1>this show is Malaysia is such a great piece of talent,

0:40:08.920 --> 0:40:11.480
<v Speaker 1>and you're going to see a side of her that

0:40:11.520 --> 0:40:15.560
<v Speaker 1>you have never seen on Basketball Wives. Like, she's not

0:40:15.800 --> 0:40:17.880
<v Speaker 1>this person who's gonna pick up a table and throw it.

0:40:18.280 --> 0:40:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to give it away, but it's so interesting.

0:40:21.120 --> 0:40:23.160
<v Speaker 1>So when I was when I was watching these episodes

0:40:23.280 --> 0:40:26.520
<v Speaker 1>in the field taping the show, I really was like,

0:40:26.719 --> 0:40:28.919
<v Speaker 1>it goes to show you that there is some life

0:40:29.200 --> 0:40:33.840
<v Speaker 1>still left in Atlanta. But there was no politics going

0:40:33.880 --> 0:40:37.919
<v Speaker 1>into casting Bold and Bougie. It was finding the right

0:40:37.960 --> 0:40:44.120
<v Speaker 1>women who have this shared commonality. But how interesting is

0:40:44.160 --> 0:40:47.600
<v Speaker 1>it to watch a friendship develop and to see what

0:40:47.719 --> 0:40:49.759
<v Speaker 1>happens in the end. So when it comes to Land

0:40:49.800 --> 0:40:53.200
<v Speaker 1>of Housewives, it's one of those things where we missed

0:40:53.200 --> 0:40:57.719
<v Speaker 1>the fact that you had women not best friends. Cynthia

0:40:57.760 --> 0:41:00.640
<v Speaker 1>and Nini met on the show. The only real friends

0:41:00.800 --> 0:41:04.200
<v Speaker 1>across all the franchises is Robin and Gizelle and Mary

0:41:04.239 --> 0:41:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Saw and Alexia. The rest of them are friends courtesy

0:41:07.040 --> 0:41:10.480
<v Speaker 1>of the shop. But my point is it goes to

0:41:10.520 --> 0:41:13.000
<v Speaker 1>show you that if you find the right mix of

0:41:13.080 --> 0:41:17.000
<v Speaker 1>people you can find people to form real friendships Cynthia

0:41:17.000 --> 0:41:23.600
<v Speaker 1>and Nini Phadrank, Candy Porchutt and Phaedra like. It can happen,

0:41:24.200 --> 0:41:27.759
<v Speaker 1>but you gotta find the right mix and make tough decisions.

0:41:28.080 --> 0:41:32.040
<v Speaker 1>And my hope is that Atlanta Housewives does that. But

0:41:32.200 --> 0:41:35.520
<v Speaker 1>as of now, the show is still on Paul's I

0:41:35.640 --> 0:41:37.560
<v Speaker 1>think in the next few months they'll get it right.

0:41:37.800 --> 0:41:40.960
<v Speaker 3>It's so funny that you mentioned the new show.

0:41:41.680 --> 0:41:44.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad you did because I was breaking down a

0:41:44.480 --> 0:41:47.799
<v Speaker 2>clip earlier in my video of Evelyn and.

0:41:47.800 --> 0:41:48.920
<v Speaker 3>Jackie going at it.

0:41:49.120 --> 0:41:51.719
<v Speaker 2>I saw that and I was thinking to myself, how

0:41:51.760 --> 0:41:55.440
<v Speaker 2>odd it must be that these two women are fighting

0:41:55.520 --> 0:41:59.080
<v Speaker 2>over Malaysia. Who is never returning to that Well, I

0:41:59.120 --> 0:42:01.279
<v Speaker 2>can't say never, but I'm just saying, she got a

0:42:01.360 --> 0:42:01.960
<v Speaker 2>whole new show.

0:42:02.160 --> 0:42:04.680
<v Speaker 1>She ain't returning to that show. Baby, Malaysia is not

0:42:04.800 --> 0:42:05.360
<v Speaker 1>the Kingdom.

0:42:05.560 --> 0:42:07.319
<v Speaker 2>So I was in my mind, I was thinking, like,

0:42:07.400 --> 0:42:12.359
<v Speaker 2>y'all fighting over something that has been Malaysia got a

0:42:12.400 --> 0:42:14.839
<v Speaker 2>whole new thing going on, and it just kind of

0:42:14.880 --> 0:42:18.120
<v Speaker 2>makes me kind of think about like it is Basketball

0:42:18.120 --> 0:42:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Wives going in a downward direct. I mean, that's a

0:42:22.520 --> 0:42:25.799
<v Speaker 2>whole other conversation. But it's just kind of like, you know,

0:42:26.120 --> 0:42:29.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad Malaysia is being utilized because I felt like

0:42:29.880 --> 0:42:33.680
<v Speaker 2>she was underutilized on Basketball Wives.

0:42:33.320 --> 0:42:36.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, and I'm happy about it too. So yes,

0:42:36.440 --> 0:42:39.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, we are rooting for the real hospitals

0:42:39.000 --> 0:42:42.520
<v Speaker 1>of Atlanta. We want to see it when despite what

0:42:42.600 --> 0:42:46.480
<v Speaker 1>you may want to read in between the lines or

0:42:46.560 --> 0:42:50.279
<v Speaker 1>think we're telling the truth, we do want the show

0:42:50.360 --> 0:42:53.479
<v Speaker 1>to win. But I think in order for the show

0:42:53.480 --> 0:42:56.360
<v Speaker 1>to win, listen, you can hire anybody in the world,

0:42:56.600 --> 0:42:59.399
<v Speaker 1>but got to make sure these women work and these

0:42:59.440 --> 0:43:03.480
<v Speaker 1>women have a clock in. And my hope is that

0:43:03.560 --> 0:43:07.040
<v Speaker 1>these women now feel it because when you're when you

0:43:07.080 --> 0:43:10.880
<v Speaker 1>are so comfortable for so long, I think it's a

0:43:10.920 --> 0:43:13.759
<v Speaker 1>good thing to sometimes let people know this can be

0:43:13.800 --> 0:43:19.360
