Speaker 1: I have a shaddy moment. Please let me let me

Speaker 2: So the shady shadesters out there are gas stations. So
Speaker 2: I now have an electric vehicle. Oh yes, Gazelle is
Speaker 2: now green. Okay, not green with envy. I'm just going green. Yes,
Speaker 2: I am now helping the environment.
Speaker 1: How long have you had it? Five minutes? Oh? Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: five minutes.
Speaker 2: But I've gotten the thing installed in my house, the charger,
Speaker 2: the charger installed.
Speaker 1: And I drive past gas stations and I'm like, suck it, suckers. Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm not going back right, Like the whole the fact
Speaker 1: that I've been going to gas stations for forty long time.
Speaker 1: Is really crazy. It's crazy, I know, I have. I
Speaker 1: been doing this every time I go. I'm like, I
Speaker 1: should have an electric car. And we got Corey an
Speaker 1: electric car, yes recently, yeah, and he loves it. So oh.
Speaker 2: I want to preface by saying, my electric car is
Speaker 2: not a Tesla. Write anything elon musk, Yes, neither's coores.
Speaker 1: We don't do the musk. Yeah yeah, but yeah no,
Speaker 1: I feel you on that. Yes, especially like on hot
Speaker 1: well hot days, cold days, rainy days, any day, dark nights.
Speaker 1: You know, just yes, that's really that is such a
Speaker 1: beautiful lecture. But for people who have electric cars and
Speaker 1: don't have a charger, yeah, that's the worst. Oh, because
Speaker 1: they got to go to like a charger station. But
Speaker 1: there I feel like the charger stations are everywhere. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but they have to sit there for like twenty minutes
Speaker 1: but to charge their car.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, but is that a long time? I mean,
Speaker 2: these the ones that are out there, from what I hear, are.
Speaker 1: Very fast, yes, but so fast as twenty minutes because like, okay,
Speaker 1: your charger at home, how long does it take to
Speaker 1: fully charge like overnight or eight you know, I would.
Speaker 1: I don't know that yet, okay, yeah, but probably so
Speaker 1: the charger stations are are if you get a rapid charger, yeah,
Speaker 1: I could probably like do a full charge maybe for
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes. And someone correct me if I'm wrong,
Speaker 1: because I don't. You know, I'm not well versed in
Speaker 1: the electric cars. But the if you wrap it, if
Speaker 1: you do a rapid charge on your car consistently, you're
Speaker 1: gonna ruin the battery. Oh really? Yeah? Yeah, oh wow.
Speaker 1: They don't tell me that. So I only did they
Speaker 1: tell you not to charge it past eighty percent? No,
Speaker 1: they talk it don't domn they talked.
Speaker 2: They gave it to me on one hundred and they
Speaker 2: told me, yeah, charge it on up.
Speaker 1: Oh gosh. Okay, so just just do a little research, okay,
Speaker 1: just read about you know, how to maintain it. Yes,
Speaker 1: maintain They say to not let it drop below twenty
Speaker 1: and to not charge it past eighty. Okay, so what
Speaker 1: they like for the longevity of the battery.
Speaker 2: Okay, what they did tell me was if I'm not
Speaker 2: using the car for like a week, unplug it, like
Speaker 2: don't keep it just like straight charged, like definitely unplug it.
Speaker 2: And Okay, so if I if I go to those
Speaker 2: rapid places, how much does it cost?
Speaker 1: I don't really know. I don't know either. I don't know.
Speaker 1: But they gave me a thousand dollar credit. Oh really, Yes,
Speaker 1: I said, y'all love me, right, So I should have
Speaker 1: done this a lot of time ago. But but yeah, no,
Speaker 1: So if you if you have an electric vehicle and
Speaker 1: you don't have a charger at home, it's not like
Speaker 1: the greatest. But if you have a charger at home, yes,
Speaker 1: it's I mean it's great. You just pluging it. So,
Speaker 1: now that Corey has an electric vehicle, he parks his
Speaker 1: car in my garage all the time. Like my car,
Speaker 1: I'm I in the garage, parker. We only have space
Speaker 1: for one car. But you have a door garage, cage,
Speaker 1: car garage. Yes, yes, but what it's in there, shoot,
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff, racks, shoes on it. Let's clean
Speaker 1: that up, basketballs, a basketball shooting machine. Oh, it's too
Speaker 1: much in there, yes, trash can Okay, it's fine. Okay.
Speaker 1: The point is, now that the charger is in the
Speaker 1: garage and Corey has an electric vehicle, he's always parking
Speaker 1: his car in my garage in my So I'm my
Speaker 1: car is sitting outside getting hot in the rained on
Speaker 1: and I'm like, no, no, no, So maybe you can
Speaker 1: get a longer extension. I know, that's what I need
Speaker 1: to figure that out. Yeah, they probably sell those.
Speaker 2: Yes, I put him outside, right, Yeah, he's got to go,
Speaker 2: he's got.
Speaker 1: To coat, he's gotta go. And I'm sitting a woman
Speaker 1: of the house.
Speaker 2: Yes you are, Yeah, you are the queen right, Yes,
Speaker 2: you have the Queen of the Dixon Mansion.
Speaker 1: Gotta go. Yes, anyway, you have a shady moment. It's just,
Speaker 1: you know, I just think as all adults know, like
Speaker 1: it's always something, yes, always something, never fails. So now, okay,
Speaker 1: so my dryer vent where the vent goes outside of
Speaker 1: the house over like you know the you know, once
Speaker 1: when we first started moving in the vent that goes
Speaker 1: outside of the house, birds started making a nest in
Speaker 1: the vent. Love right, So then we had my handyman, Kevin,
Speaker 1: come and put a cage around the vent so that
Speaker 1: the birds can't make a nest in the vent. Okay,
Speaker 1: So then, I don't know, six months ago, my dryer's
Speaker 1: not drying right, and you know, we look outside and
Speaker 1: these damn birds still made a nest in the vent
Speaker 1: like in the dryer van. I don't know, like I
Speaker 1: don't did they eat up the No, they didn't eat
Speaker 1: the cage. They just I guess would just kind of
Speaker 1: you know, I don't squeeze through and make their nest.
Speaker 1: Because like my stuff wasn't drying. Like people put stuff
Speaker 1: in the dryer on high, like we have to put
Speaker 1: it on high, run it for an hour, two hours whatever,
Speaker 1: and it still was like damp whatever. So Kevin came
Speaker 1: cleaned out the nest once again. Now my dryer is
Speaker 1: not drying. These birds have our back like they're back
Speaker 1: building nests. I don't know does it and so where
Speaker 1: does it let out the side of my house beside okay,
Speaker 1: like over the garage, huh. And they just keep building
Speaker 1: a nest. So now my clothes are not drying, and
Speaker 1: my dryer it's just like one thing after that. It
Speaker 1: don't stop, it doesn't stop. It's non stop. But these
Speaker 1: damn birds are so freaking shady.
Speaker 2: It's so and you know, you can't touch the nests
Speaker 2: because they the birds will.
Speaker 1: Tell they'll they'll attack me and then they'll also like
Speaker 1: abandon the babies right.
Speaker 2: Yes, they'll leave the babies and then and you you
Speaker 2: will get attacked. I told you about when I got attacked. No, yes,
Speaker 2: I was little. I learned my lesson very young. I
Speaker 2: was like probably like eight nine. I was climbing a tree.
Speaker 2: So I was climbing tree, climbing tree age, is that.
Speaker 1: Eight or nine? Yeah? Sure, okay.
Speaker 2: So I get to where I was going on the
Speaker 2: tree and I see a nest. I got all excited,
Speaker 2: so I went to go reach to touch. I didn't
Speaker 2: even get my hand close to touch, and out of nowhere
Speaker 2: a bird slammed into my face and knocked me out
Speaker 2: the tree. Oh wow, I'm sprawled out on the ground
Speaker 2: and I was like.
Speaker 1: Like, I'm screaming.
Speaker 2: And then but then I realized I think. I went
Speaker 2: and told my mom, and my mom was like, who
Speaker 2: told you? Who told you was okay to even try
Speaker 2: to touch an egg?
Speaker 1: Like that's I could see a kid being curious. Of course,
Speaker 1: of course, my mother said, have you learned your lesson?
Speaker 1: I said, yes, absolutely, I ain't doing that again. But
Speaker 1: I remember, like it was yesterday that bird came. Never again,
Speaker 1: never again. And then you could tell everyone, don't do it,
Speaker 1: don't do it ever do it? Okay? So this was
Speaker 1: this was somebody posted this. Actually I know this person.
Speaker 2: When you are full of love, it confuses people who
Speaker 2: are full of shit.
Speaker 1: Where you meet someone and you're like, are you really
Speaker 1: that nice? Why are you that? How can you be
Speaker 1: this nice? Like? Yes, it just really confuses people who
Speaker 1: are full of shit, and we all know people that
Speaker 1: are full of shit, full of Okay, so this number two,
Speaker 1: how long can your sign? These are? This is uh
Speaker 1: zodiac signs, and it talks about how long a zodiac
Speaker 1: sign can hold a grudge. Oh okay, okay, so what
Speaker 1: is what do you think? Aries is pretty long? Like forever?
Speaker 1: They give you just twenty four hours? What I know?
Speaker 1: Hold a gros? Okay, I don't agree.
Speaker 2: I don't agree with that either. Yeah, my virgos it
Speaker 2: says a couple of months. Okay, that's about right, A
Speaker 2: couple of months and add two years today, right, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: a couple of months plus two years.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: The people that that get off, Oh, tauruses is and
Speaker 2: you're kind of a Taurus a bit no, no, well,
Speaker 2: tauruses it says until they die.
Speaker 1: Okay, but that makes sense that oh am, I like
Speaker 1: a tour. I don't know. I don't know what my
Speaker 1: other I always forget, like like aries and then something
Speaker 1: rising something I think, yeah, anywhere I might have that.
Speaker 2: So libras is like point zero two seconds unless you
Speaker 2: really don't that's what it's that.
Speaker 1: So I think that I don't know. These are so random.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't agree. I know, I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't stay like pent up mad for a long time, right,
Speaker 1: But I'm like never going to forget, like what if
Speaker 1: I whatever my issue was and how it made me feel,
Speaker 1: and those thoughts that that person or those how that
Speaker 1: person made me feel or whatever however that situation made feel. Oh,
Speaker 1: I'm never forgetting and I'm never like letting it go.
Speaker 1: You're never letting it go. I don't want to say
Speaker 1: let it go, but yeah, I don't want to say
Speaker 1: like I'm never letting it go, but I'm I'm not.
Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna dwell on it. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to live in it, but I'm also not going to
Speaker 1: be like like past it or over it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm I'm I can let it go, but
Speaker 2: I'm never gonna forget.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, how you how you act at a fool.
Speaker 2: Okay, so time of the creator. This was interesting he
Speaker 2: he says this.
Speaker 1: He was talking on a podcast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, And he said on a podcast that that
Speaker 2: we give a lot of people who have who aren't
Speaker 2: smart the platform for a podcast, and.
Speaker 1: He wants them he wants it to stop. Okay. So
Speaker 1: he's just for the clear. He said this on a
Speaker 1: podcast that people who have podcasts who are not smart
Speaker 1: earth stop having a podcast. Okay, Tyler's creator, he should
Speaker 1: have thought about that. Did you feel sensitive about that?
Speaker 1: I did, because I'm like, what of all? First of all, sir,
Speaker 1: you said this as your on he says that we're
Speaker 1: giving people too many people platforms that should not have
Speaker 1: a platform.
Speaker 2: But says who, that's what I said, according to who?
Speaker 2: According to Tyler, So.
Speaker 1: Anyone can have a podcast. Now, it's whether people listen
Speaker 1: to them. Yes, it's you know, and if people choose
Speaker 1: to listen to who they want to choose to, then
Speaker 1: let them listen, let them live. But I think that
Speaker 1: the problem comes in when people play clips from podcasts
Speaker 1: and then like put them on Instagram or on social
Speaker 1: media and then let that kind of be like, oh,
Speaker 1: these people are speaking for the world. No they're just
Speaker 1: speaking for themselves, you know, they're just And so I
Speaker 1: think when people see clips of podcasts that they're not
Speaker 1: familiar with, and that's when they're like, well, who is
Speaker 1: this person and have something to say, Well, don't worry
Speaker 1: about it. They weren't talking to you. They weren't talking
Speaker 1: to their audience. They weren't talking to you.
Speaker 2: Yes, and Tyler, if you had a podcast, then you
Speaker 2: have a platform. And would you want people talking about
Speaker 2: your platform coming for your platform?
Speaker 1: Right, No, you would not.
Speaker 2: And unless your name is Baraka Michelle, you don't speak
Speaker 2: for me, right period.
Speaker 1: Right? All right, we got some letters. All right, let's sing.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, so this is a good topic. So following
Speaker 1: up on one of our something talked about a couple
Speaker 1: weeks ago about the potwashing. Oh yes, this is from Alexa,
Speaker 1: she says, hiches out and Robin, I've only just been
Speaker 1: Potomac this past spring, but it hits so good. I've
Speaker 1: joined the Congregation of the Church of Reasonably Shady Welcome Alexa,
Speaker 1: better late than ever. I ami in here every week
Speaker 1: like I can't miss it, or the church ladies will
Speaker 1: drag me through the mud. Not the church ladies anyway
Speaker 1: as a white person. I guessed when I realized that
Speaker 1: not only do I instinctually rent the pot, pan, etc.
Speaker 1: Whenever I get it out, but other people don't. Okay,
Speaker 1: white lady, what's her name? Alexa? Okay, white Alexa? Yes,
Speaker 1: who knows what kind of dust or hair or grease
Speaker 1: or God knows what other dirt in the world could
Speaker 1: have could sneak in there. Yes, maybe I'm being dramatic,
Speaker 1: but I don't give a f I will never use
Speaker 1: a dry pan un christ Like, what does this have
Speaker 1: to do with Jesus? She said? I think it would
Speaker 1: be funny and interesting for you guys to explore the
Speaker 1: different things communities think are normal and others don't. But
Speaker 1: learning some of them disrupts my peace. Not taking your
Speaker 1: shoes off in the house is crazy work. I have
Speaker 1: two sisters and I have never even let them sit
Speaker 1: on my bed, even as a kid. Sometimes I feel
Speaker 1: shady for that, but I don't know where you've been.
Speaker 1: If I can have my own bed, be my safe, clean,
Speaker 1: ethical sanctuary. Yeah, what do I have in this world?
Speaker 1: What do you have? You got nothing? Right? Yes, I
Speaker 1: love the podcast and your natural chemistry. It's refreshing in
Speaker 1: this world of fakes and freaks. Ooh, I mean she's
Speaker 1: lexing it to shady. So you know what's funny, We
Speaker 1: didn't start so in my house she has to take
Speaker 1: a shoes off. But when I think about like my
Speaker 1: childhood and growing up, no one ever made anybody take
Speaker 1: their shoes off, like in my family. So I just
Speaker 1: like my grandmother, my aunt, my parents, my friend's house
Speaker 1: is like nowhere that I ever went did anyone make
Speaker 1: people take their shoes off? And we didn't even really
Speaker 1: start making people take their shoes off. They didn't take
Speaker 1: their shoes off at our first house. I think maybe
Speaker 1: not until I don't know, it's like weird, it came
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, So yeah, I don't even know. That's
Speaker 1: not like really, I would say the taking the shoes
Speaker 1: off in the house was always a cultural thing in
Speaker 1: like the Asian Oh yes, culture, of course. That was
Speaker 1: the only people that I knew that you take your
Speaker 1: shoes off. The shoes are maybe at the front door
Speaker 1: or somewhere, and I always thought that was strange, and
Speaker 1: then one day it's like, no, it actually makes total sense. No,
Speaker 1: it makes so much sense, And there's so much stuff
Speaker 1: on our shoes, right.
Speaker 2: So I remember I went to co visit my girlfriend
Speaker 2: in New York, so I was this was post college
Speaker 2: and she had a teeny little apartment and she was like,
Speaker 2: can you take your shoes off before you come in?
Speaker 2: And I was like, absolutely, but because New York is
Speaker 2: so just disgusting. But I think I continued it on
Speaker 2: after that because because that made sense to me. But
Speaker 2: what we are universally not gonna do is walk outside
Speaker 2: without our shoes.
Speaker 1: So it's so crazy that you say that because my neighbors,
Speaker 1: one of my neighbors, yes, routinely are outside without shoes on.
Speaker 1: Of course they are the entire family, yes, and even grandma, Yes,
Speaker 1: entire family, And the bottom of their feet are as
Speaker 1: black as my shirt. And it's disgusting. It is so.
Speaker 1: And then so then you walking around with these dirty
Speaker 1: ass feet, and then you go in your house so
Speaker 1: you can see the dirt that you're bringing from the
Speaker 1: bottom of your foot into your house into your house,
Speaker 1: and you cool with it, and then you probably jump
Speaker 1: in the band and go to sleep. Right, I just
Speaker 1: got the ebgb's. So people like, if y'all listen, and
Speaker 1: y'all routinely do not take your shoes off in your
Speaker 1: house or you walk outside barefoot. Just think about all
Speaker 1: this stuff, the nasty stuff, stuff that's on the ground.
Speaker 1: Yes that you know. Okay, if you're just in your
Speaker 1: driveway or whatever, your cars, your vehicles are bringing in, yes,
Speaker 1: ship shit, bird, ship, deer, ship whatever, like running. I mean,
Speaker 1: so crazy, but but it is funny. It's not like
Speaker 1: a I don't know, is this a I can't say
Speaker 1: taking your shoes off in the house is like a
Speaker 1: black white Asian thing, Like it should be an everybody thing.
Speaker 1: That should be everybody thing.
Speaker 2: But we know the people that are outside with no
Speaker 2: shoes on, that's cultural.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna call y'all out, but they Robbins Naples, Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: because I don't. I don't even rob it's the only
Speaker 1: black person on the street. Okay, I have I have
Speaker 1: house slippers, yes, Like I don't even walk in my
Speaker 1: house barefoot. So that and that was something that my
Speaker 1: parents passed down to me, Like we don't walk around
Speaker 1: barefoot in the house. So it's like, how do you
Speaker 1: walk around barefoot outside? Right? That's yeah, And I go,
Speaker 1: I know I learned my lesson. I was in Ocean
Speaker 1: City Maryland at the beach, okay, and walking around barefoot.
Speaker 1: And I came home that next week, I have a
Speaker 1: wart on the bottom of up But yep, what's so
Speaker 1: like is a wart like hard kind of okay, like
Speaker 1: it gets hard, it's like, you know, it's you know,
Speaker 1: it's it's nasty. I can't I can't really remember did
Speaker 1: it did it hurt? Did it itch? But there's a
Speaker 1: wart on the bottom of my foot And I had
Speaker 1: to go to the pediatrist and they literally had to
Speaker 1: like cut it out. Oh god, yeah, yeah, So you
Speaker 1: learned your lesson. So I learned my That's when I
Speaker 1: learned my lesson about walking around barefoot anywhere. So if
Speaker 1: I'm at the pool the beach, I will always have
Speaker 1: some type of slipper on, especially like if there's wet
Speaker 1: like water on the ground. Yeah, no, I'm wearing my
Speaker 1: slippers all the way to the edge of the pool
Speaker 1: and then I'm getting in. They you know, well, they say,
Speaker 1: like in New Orleans, like especially when it's like Mighty
Speaker 1: Gras and the French quarters like stuff on the ground,
Speaker 1: like water on the ground or just like little puddles
Speaker 1: and stuff. They say they've made.
Speaker 2: An announcement, do not wear flip flops, do not wear
Speaker 2: open tool shoes in the streets of New Orleans friends
Speaker 2: during Mani Gron. So if they try and tell y'all something. Also,
Speaker 2: by the way, did we talk about don't plug your
Speaker 2: phone up, don't charge your phone at in the airport? No,
Speaker 2: TSA said, it's there's malware. There's all kinds of hackers
Speaker 2: and stuff, all kinds of hackers that have already put
Speaker 2: put like their instruments or whatever in these sockets. So
Speaker 2: when you plug up because you're traveling to these strange
Speaker 2: destinations for all of your basketballs, don't be plug up
Speaker 2: your phone in the airport to take a portable charger.
Speaker 1: What.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm dead serious, TSA. They made the announcement.
Speaker 1: That's crazy. No, but but that's so easy for them
Speaker 1: to do. But that's so easy for the hackers in fact,
Speaker 1: so it's not so they're not saying don't use the
Speaker 1: the Wi Fi at the airport.
Speaker 2: Are you sure it's what the electrical it's the charger,
Speaker 2: it's the plugs. What it's the plugs and probably the
Speaker 2: WiFi too.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't I wouldn't look hook up to that WiFi no,
Speaker 1: oh no, that's crazy. Yes anyway, okay, so wait a minute,
Speaker 1: we don't we have a special guest. Oh yeah, hold on, okay, guys,
Speaker 1: our least favorite person, yes, or he's back again our
Speaker 1: favorite by the way, the least favorite person that we
Speaker 1: don't talk about. So are Kanye and his and this girl?
Speaker 1: Are they together? On that? They look like they're together?
Speaker 1: Now they look like they're together. I thought that they
Speaker 1: was getting a divorce. Yeah, but she's now wearing skimpy
Speaker 1: clothes again and wigs to wigs and skippy clothes. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I just need fit to stop. Yeah, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: oh oh okay. So our favorite non favorite reasonably shady listener.
Speaker 2: His name is called Dick Hurts. For those of you
Speaker 2: all that don't know, he's been with us for some time.
Speaker 2: Welcome back, Yeah, welcome back, and heed himself Dick Hurts
Speaker 2: because I think his Dick Hurts. No, there was a
Speaker 2: reason why he named himself Dick Hurts.
Speaker 1: Yes. Remember the original question was about when you get
Speaker 1: a vsectomy something. Yeah, so he wrote in in responsible
Speaker 1: Yes he's affectionately calling him and then we just like,
Speaker 1: after reading a few of his letters, we've determined that
Speaker 1: Dick Hurts is Kevin hearttheart.
Speaker 2: Yes, Dick Hurts akaa Kevin Hart. Okay, so he says,
Speaker 2: dear ladies and all caps, I'm back once again.
Speaker 1: Bitches. Did you miss me? Question mark? Question mark? Yes?
Speaker 1: We miss act? Did we we missed him? Because he
Speaker 1: always comes for me. I know?
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, So he says, where do I start
Speaker 2: with my frustration for you? Damns? I don't want to
Speaker 2: be called a damn James. Dames, Dames, Okay, you're right, damns. Okay,
Speaker 2: Let's begin with episode one. I'm so frustrated with Jaselle's
Speaker 2: lack of knowledge on everything. See I don't even want
Speaker 2: to read this because this is just comedy, right the
Speaker 2: nerve of her to think it was Coco Jones who
Speaker 2: won the French Open. Let's start there, and then the
Speaker 2: conversation goes to self driving cars. Jaselle asked if Tesla's
Speaker 2: can drive can self drive? What planet has Giselle been
Speaker 2: on where she has missed years? Years, news reports, articles,
Speaker 2: conversations about Tesla's crashing while self driving, people sitting in
Speaker 2: becks in the back seats of Tesla's and getting arrested
Speaker 2: due to no one in the driver's seat and much more,
Speaker 2: but not only that question mark. I'm sure Jizelle has
Speaker 2: been to Las Vegas and or California in the last
Speaker 2: five years where there are actual waym vehicles self driving
Speaker 2: with no one at all in the cars on public roads. Yes,
Speaker 2: I have, and we've talked about that on the post
Speaker 2: I've talked about I was in San Francisco and they
Speaker 2: were all over the place, right and I wasn't getting
Speaker 2: in any Dick Hurts, listen to all the podcasts, not
Speaker 2: just the ones that make you make me mad.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, here we go, and to that.
Speaker 2: It's not just Tesla's and way Moods, but Cadillacs, Ford's,
Speaker 2: General Motors, Porsche all have some form of self driving technology.
Speaker 1: Gazelle, really, okay, my car can park itself, but all
Speaker 1: of like self driving, something like self parking. Like Ford
Speaker 1: has a self driving car.
Speaker 2: They probably don't because Dick Hurts thinks that he knows
Speaker 2: everything and he does it. And by the way, Porsche
Speaker 2: has a self driving they don't. By the way, my
Speaker 2: new car that I got it does the three sixty.
Speaker 2: What do you mean, like if you're parked one way,
Speaker 2: you can hit a button and it'll turn all the
Speaker 2: way I've done.
Speaker 1: Before it was crazy, like back up and nope, it'll
Speaker 1: just spind your ho straight around all right. So, Dick Kurtz,
Speaker 1: do you have that? No, you don't.
Speaker 2: I need to see that and have okay. And they've
Speaker 2: had it for years okay. And Tesla is weeks away
Speaker 2: from having their robot robot I guess it's robotaxi service,
Speaker 2: so driverless Tesla's will act as ubers lifts, but with
Speaker 2: no human driver at all in the car.
Speaker 1: And like sss, I don't like that at all. And
Speaker 1: I'm not doing this why I don't know? And then
Speaker 1: why are we eliminating jobs for people? Why let them
Speaker 1: have their job? Right?
Speaker 2: Okay, So it says Giselle, I'm gonna need you to
Speaker 2: date real men who are aware of technology, cars, science,
Speaker 2: and not these apparent losers you have been dating. Also
Speaker 2: suggestions less money spent on weave and makeup, and a
Speaker 2: bit more on blueberry purchases.
Speaker 1: Love you do you take? Okay? You know you do
Speaker 1: need to eat a lot of blueberries for them to
Speaker 1: actually like work work. It's like a handful. Okay. First
Speaker 1: of all, Dick, you don't know who I date. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm not dating you, and you don't know whether or
Speaker 1: not bad they're real or they're losers. Okay. Oh he
Speaker 1: got something for you, Robin, he said. And Robin, you
Speaker 1: are not immune to getting some of this too. Boo.
Speaker 1: You stated that a neighbor of yours is a doctor
Speaker 1: and has a Tesla.
Speaker 2: The neighbor told you that she sleeps while her tesla
Speaker 2: drives her home. She said that this is a lie.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not lying. I didn't make it up.
Speaker 2: Maybe she's lying, he said, why, question Mark, Because Tesla's
Speaker 2: and Ford General motors have a car camera that monitors
Speaker 2: your eyes.
Speaker 1: Okay, really, okay, I don't believe that. So all right, Dick.
Speaker 1: So these vehicles have they monitor the eyes, but yet
Speaker 1: people have been pulled over for being in the back
Speaker 1: seat while the car was driving itself. So no, no,
Speaker 1: like they don't have anything monitoring your eyeballs. I mean
Speaker 1: they could, but I'm just saying, maybe this is a
Speaker 1: newer technology and maybe when my driver told me that
Speaker 1: she was sleeping while her Tesla drove her home, maybe
Speaker 1: it was like years before this technology where it monitors
Speaker 1: the eyes. Because I'm saying, Dick, if you say that
Speaker 1: people have been pulled over and arrested or whatever for
Speaker 1: sitting in the back seat while their car's driving them. So,
Speaker 1: how is that possible? How is that possible? Dick, Dick,
Speaker 1: get your fact straight.
Speaker 2: Then he goes on to say, if you close for
Speaker 2: longer than a blink or so warning lights, they alert
Speaker 2: you that if you do not immediately take control of
Speaker 2: the steering wheel and apply turning effort, then the car
Speaker 2: will soon put on its flashes and pull over and
Speaker 2: stop at the nearest safe place to do so, Dick.
Speaker 1: This a lie. This is a lot that might be true,
Speaker 1: but that might be more recent. They probably they probably
Speaker 1: put out these self driving cars, didn't think things through,
Speaker 1: didn't think people will be going to sleep, and then realize, okay,
Speaker 1: we need to add feature.
Speaker 2: This is definitely Kevin Hart, because this is some foolishness.
Speaker 2: Then he goes on to say, and no, putting on
Speaker 2: sunglasses will not defeat this technology. If you are wearing sunglasses,
Speaker 2: the camera sees this and will simply require you to
Speaker 2: do steering inputs every thirty seconds or so.
Speaker 1: Sounds like Dick has a tesla, and yes, Dick's mad
Speaker 1: because he can't sleep. Yes, in his tesla and his
Speaker 1: and his Dick no longer hurts. He has a hard on.
Speaker 1: He has a hard on for his tesla. Then he says,
Speaker 1: love you both, your pal, Dick Hurts, our pal. Okay, Dick,
Speaker 1: let's be clear, we're not friends. We're not friends, will
Speaker 1: never be friends. Okay, because you came for me and
Speaker 1: you came a rival. Okay, anybody, but Dick, I have
Speaker 1: a question. If you were to run into us one day, yeah,
Speaker 1: would I get food like Lebron, Yeah, we will just
Speaker 1: all get booed. But will you introduce yourself? Yes?
Speaker 2: And will you tell us are your real name? Because
Speaker 2: it's not Dick Hurts, right, tell us your real name.
Speaker 2: And as a matter of fact, the next time I
Speaker 2: have a show or something, I'm gonna need for you
Speaker 2: to pull up and let me know who you are
Speaker 2: so we can take a picture. Yes, okay, Next letter,
Speaker 2: this one. Okay, we did get some hate mail, not
Speaker 2: hate mail, but okay.
Speaker 1: Because that, because Dick Hurts, was just some hate, We're
Speaker 1: gonna get more. Well, this was in response to something
Speaker 1: we expected to have a little hate from. Okay, Alex says,
Speaker 1: listen here, y'all, stinky asses, might not need new Mariah Carey,
Speaker 1: but I do. Mariah can Mariah slander aside. I love
Speaker 1: the podcast.
Speaker 2: Okay, wait, is he going to talk about her new song?
Speaker 1: So I want to talk about it? Okay. Finally, like
Speaker 1: really listen to it. Okay. It sounds nothing like her,
Speaker 1: not one thing. Now.
Speaker 2: It doesn't even sound remotely like even a little bit
Speaker 2: like Maria carry who sang the song.
Speaker 1: Oh No, I'm listening to this song and I'm like huh.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, maybe she has a guest artist on it.
Speaker 1: So I'm like waiting for Mariah to come. And the
Speaker 1: whole song is like the same person singing I think
Speaker 1: sounds nothing like that. There's like a rapper on it
Speaker 1: with her? Is it? Why c up someone? I can't remember?
Speaker 1: So the whole song is like just this weird like
Speaker 1: stranger singing this song. I had to google the song.
Speaker 1: I typed in Mariah Carey type dangerous and see if
Speaker 1: it was like featuring yes song. So I don't know.
Speaker 1: Rihanna Mooney long says Coco Jones, like somebody and its
Speaker 1: golf right and it's not. It's Mariah Carey. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: she should have left, just leave that for someone else.
Speaker 1: It did not sound like her whatsoever. Now, if you're
Speaker 1: a Mariah Carey fan, you know that's the truth. And
Speaker 1: if you're a Mariah Carey fan, and you have been
Speaker 1: for what we're going on three decades, probably a Mariah
Speaker 1: Carey you should be offended by the fact that she as.
Speaker 2: A song that sounds nothing like her. Not because we're
Speaker 2: all waiting for like we're waiting for that we don't.
Speaker 1: Get there, but not even that, it's just the voice
Speaker 1: itself does not sound like Mariah like I could not
Speaker 1: make it sound like Mariah Like. I was like, so,
Speaker 1: y'all can stand by that if you want to, but
Speaker 1: we're not standing by that. Yeah, okay, So somebody wants
Speaker 1: to know is this reasonable or is this shady? Okay?
Speaker 2: John Reid says I had a birthday a few years
Speaker 2: ago and my friend said, let's go for drinks. I
Speaker 2: asked if it's okay for me to order another drink? Now,
Speaker 2: mind you, I only had one drink, and they said,
Speaker 2: go ahead, because we're not paying for it.
Speaker 1: Who's paying for it? John Reid? Okay, okay? Is it
Speaker 1: reason's a shady for someone to invite you out let
Speaker 1: alone on your birth birthday and make you pay for
Speaker 1: your own drinks. Shady. I was like, that is the
Speaker 1: definition of shady. Hell with not even one drink. So
Speaker 1: he was being respectful. Yes, I was saying, hey, can
Speaker 1: I get another drink? Okay, can I get another drink?
Speaker 1: And they're like, we ain't paying for your drink in
Speaker 1: the first place, so drink up, buddy. It was the tap.
Speaker 1: I can't even owe yours. I can't even imagine like
Speaker 1: saying that to somebody that's let alone. I wonder if
Speaker 1: they knew it was his birthday. They probably didn't, don't. No,
Speaker 1: it's said they took him out for drinks for his birthday.
Speaker 1: I had a birthday a few years ago and my
Speaker 1: friends said, oh, let's go for drinks, so they knew
Speaker 1: it was his birthday. Damn wow, I'll start doing that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have no friends left. I mean, that's your standard.
Speaker 1: If you're taking somebody off of their birthday, you pay right.
Speaker 1: Otherwise don't take them. Yeah, please don't. And it's not
Speaker 1: wait until the next day, right, And it's not like
Speaker 1: the pleasure at the bar you want to join me,
Speaker 1: and it's not like the pleasure of the company is
Speaker 1: the payment, like no, no, no, like I'm gonna pay
Speaker 1: for your drinks. Yeah, that's shady. Don't ever do that,
Speaker 1: you know, to your friends, if you invite them out
Speaker 1: on their birthday to celebrate their birthday, then they should
Speaker 1: be treated kay and even I mean okay, one too?
Speaker 1: How many? How many? A right? So if you invited
Speaker 1: me out for drinks, made you want and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: try to get you drunk and I'm taking them back, yes, six, yes, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna help you even further. So I had an
Speaker 1: event recently, yeah, and I had a five thousand dollars
Speaker 1: minimum on the bar, which I felt like it was
Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, right, because it's not to make people
Speaker 1: at the party.
Speaker 2: It's like this is this is I'm good. I'm probably
Speaker 2: not gonna make the minimum. So I've kind of made
Speaker 2: an announcement like I have a five thousand dollars minimum
Speaker 2: on this bar because I don't think I'm gonna make it.
Speaker 2: And you know, at the end, I'm just like I've
Speaker 2: got to pay this money, so y'all might.
Speaker 1: As well have toube.
Speaker 2: So I said, look top shelf, only like y'all, y'll
Speaker 2: kill it. Seven thousand dollars later.
Speaker 1: Oh no, these fools went bananas on the bar. I
Speaker 1: couldn't believe it. I was blown away, Like I was
Speaker 1: just like, are you effing kidding me? Let's say less,
Speaker 1: say less, so Robin, to answer your question, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: might cut you off because you can drink, but you know,
Speaker 1: I don't drink like that anymore though. I know, but
Speaker 1: I think you got it in you. You got it
Speaker 1: in you. Yeah, yeah, I think if you're falling out,
Speaker 1: which I've seen, I'm gonna cut you off, not because
Speaker 1: I don't want to pay for your drinks, but because
Speaker 1: you've had enough, right, yes, right, but just in general,
Speaker 1: like I don't know, I am thinking like, Okay, if
Speaker 1: I took someone out for the birthday and they're just
Speaker 1: like slamming them back, I don't know. I guess I'm like,
Speaker 1: it's your birthday, I'm gonna let you have it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: go for it. Going forward, we having.
Speaker 2: A good time, yes, yes, yes, And it's your job
Speaker 2: to be the responsible person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not only pay, but get the person home exactly right.
Speaker 1: And then if that person drove, then okay, we're gonna
Speaker 1: let's let's figure out some alternate Yeah, transportations like yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: you get ubered. Let your friends have a blast. Yes,
Speaker 1: that is that's what you do. That's crazy. And if
Speaker 1: you can't afford it, then don't offer. Right, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's great. Oh I have an update. Yeah. So remember
Speaker 1: we talked a couple episodes about like products that we
Speaker 1: like purchased that you know we're either good or bad
Speaker 1: or we whatever. And I was talking about the dice
Speaker 1: in air wrap that I spent like, yeah, five hundred
Speaker 1: dollars on and I don't use it.
Speaker 2: Now, Wait a minute, was this the one that you
Speaker 2: put your hair around it?
Speaker 1: It's like it like sucks your hair up and twists it. Okay,
Speaker 1: because I.
Speaker 2: Saw Cardi b has something, oh really got like a
Speaker 2: she's got something like that.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, go ahead. So I talked about the podcast.
Speaker 1: So someone Anna from Vegas reached out to me, was like, hey, Rob,
Speaker 1: and I'll buy your dicing from you. No way, Anna
Speaker 1: bought the dice in not shifted to her. Wait wait
Speaker 1: she hasn't wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait,
Speaker 1: oh my god, what else can I sell? I gotta look,
Speaker 1: I got a bunch of shit I can sell, y'all. Okay,
Speaker 1: So did you give it to her like these shoes.
Speaker 1: I never heard doing that on the podcasts. This is
Speaker 1: not a flea market, mab like once once a podcast. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: the product of the day, reasonably shady is not turned
Speaker 1: into a flea market. For the record, However, I'm intrigued. Okay,
Speaker 1: So did you sell it to her at cost? Did
Speaker 1: you sell it to her half off? So apparently I said,
Speaker 1: I think I said on the podcast. I was like,
Speaker 1: I'll sell it to you half off half what I paid. Okay,
Speaker 1: So she's so I sold it. So I paid five
Speaker 1: hundred dollars for it, okay, So I sold it to
Speaker 1: her for two fifty and then I added fifteen dollars
Speaker 1: for shipping. Oh wow. Now when I went to the
Speaker 1: UPS store, I didn't have a so I have like
Speaker 1: a ups count account business account, but I didn't have
Speaker 1: a box big enough to ship it, so I had
Speaker 1: to go to the UPS store. So I just was like, okay,
Speaker 1: can y'all like pack this up and let me know
Speaker 1: how much it will cost to ship it? So they
Speaker 1: like put it on the scale, put her address in,
Speaker 1: and they were like, oh, it's it's going to be
Speaker 1: forty one dollars to ship? Did you charge her forty
Speaker 1: one dollars? Oh? I charged I charged her fifteen dollars.
Speaker 1: I charged this was so I charged her thinking yes,
Speaker 1: ahead of time. I'm like, okay, oh okay, it's gonna
Speaker 1: cost me like fifteen dollars a ship, right, So I
Speaker 1: had already charged her. I had already charged her, right,
Speaker 1: and she'd already paid. So I'm at the place trying
Speaker 1: to ship the stuff and E sapt forty one dollars.
Speaker 1: I was like what I said? And then what about
Speaker 1: I'm like, so what about the box? And like packing
Speaker 1: it up? Like, oh, that'll be fifteen dollars damn. So
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, hell no. So I just got
Speaker 1: the box and I went back home and I went
Speaker 1: to my computer and I logged into my business account. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it was and it charged and it was cost
Speaker 1: me eleven dollars to ship? How much was it before?
Speaker 1: Forty one? Forty one at the UPS store? So what's
Speaker 1: what's UPS is running a racket. It's just when you
Speaker 1: have a UPS account like a business account, and I
Speaker 1: have the business account because i'd tell my embellished hat.
Speaker 1: So you get discounts as a retailer as a business.
Speaker 1: So I just shipped it like from in Bellish. Did
Speaker 1: she get it yet? She she got it, Yeah, she
Speaker 1: got it. But I can't believe forty one dollars to ship. Okay,
Speaker 1: so you also need to put your peloton on Peloton.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, anyone want a Peloton? Anyone want a Peloton?
Speaker 1: How much? I'll give you a good price on that.
Speaker 1: All right? What do pelotons cost these dates? This is
Speaker 1: like a two thousand dollar thing. How much Peloton's got?
Speaker 1: How much do they cost? I mean, are people even
Speaker 1: buying pelotons anymore?
Speaker 2: I know, I think people do because people, you know,
Speaker 2: some people like them.
Speaker 1: They like the whole Yeah, the ass you know, all
Speaker 1: of it, the classes, and I do still. So even
Speaker 1: though I don't use my Peloton bike, the Peloton app itself,
Speaker 1: which I pay, I might pay them like forty dollars
Speaker 1: a month. They have a lot of classes on there
Speaker 1: that's not just for the bike, like strength training, yoga
Speaker 1: and stretch and all this type of stuff. So that alone,
Speaker 1: even if you don't have the bike, you could get
Speaker 1: on that app. Okay, So let me let me tell
Speaker 1: you how much how much of pelotons called how much
Speaker 1: a Peloton is brand spanking new Peloton bike by new
Speaker 1: fourteen forty five, fourteen hundred dollars. Okay, so you would
Speaker 1: is that right? I think so? Yeah, so you would pay?
Speaker 1: Or they're selling refurbished ones for eleven forty five. This
Speaker 1: is on the Peloton website. Okay, so I'm thinking seven
Speaker 1: to fifty a thousand. I don't know. I mean, I've
Speaker 1: had it for a long it's probably not the What
Speaker 1: version do I have? You know? Okay? Sound yeah? Five
Speaker 1: hundred five negotiating for the people.
Speaker 2: Okay, this is serious going on. We used to be
Speaker 2: shady has gone to the ships.
Speaker 1: That's so funny. Okay, five hunch for the Peloton. Okay,
Speaker 1: here we go. Another letter. This is from Oh she said,
Speaker 1: don't please don't share my name? Okay, okay, So hey Carol,
Speaker 1: all right, dear Giselle and Robin. I mean, huge fan
Speaker 1: of RHP and the podcast. I listen faithfully on my
Speaker 1: drive to work every Monday. I'm writing because I'm in
Speaker 1: a crossroads with a friend and considering ending the friendship. Oh.
Speaker 1: For background, we became fast friends years ago through our
Speaker 1: then boyfriends who are now our fiances, and she will
Speaker 1: possibly be included in my bridal party. Over the past
Speaker 1: couple of years, I've noticed that after we hang out,
Speaker 1: it's not a fun, warm exchange. I often leave thinking, wow,
Speaker 1: are me? Are we more like frenemies? So some examples,
Speaker 1: if something big happens in my life, she never celebrates it.
Speaker 1: I could post on IG's stories and she'll view it
Speaker 1: and not say anything. Also, anytime we're together, she makes
Speaker 1: a point to mention how she doesn't really need friends,
Speaker 1: and then she always has shady comments, leaving me on
Speaker 1: guard constantly. It's becoming less and less enjoyable to be
Speaker 1: around her. And as I listen to you all each
Speaker 1: week and hear the genuine relationships you have, I find
Speaker 1: myself questioning the authenticity of my own friends circle my questions.
Speaker 1: Am I being too sensitive? How do you know when
Speaker 1: someone is truly your friend? And how do you know
Speaker 1: when it's time to end a friendship? All? Right?
Speaker 2: I think that a part of this could be the
Speaker 2: girlfriend is going through something right, and so she's not
Speaker 2: capable of being happy for you because she's going through
Speaker 2: her own stuff. And sometimes as a girlfriend we just
Speaker 2: need to recognize it.
Speaker 1: Just bear with it, right, Yeah? I think, Okay, so
Speaker 1: in this case, I'm trying to like read through it again.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't take anything personal. No, you know, this could
Speaker 1: just be she going through Selectazelle says she's going through
Speaker 1: something or she's gone through something and maybe her like
Speaker 1: things have just changed and how she kind of relates
Speaker 1: to the world and to people around her. But I say,
Speaker 1: if you don't enjoy being around her, if you're around
Speaker 1: her and you're finding that it's not fun, it's less
Speaker 1: enjoyable that you know she's being shady all the time
Speaker 1: and you feel like you're on guard, then you might
Speaker 1: want to just pull back for yourself. Yes, pull back,
Speaker 1: And I don't think that requires a conversation or a
Speaker 1: come to Jesus moment, you know, unless you really feel
Speaker 1: strongly about her as a friend. Yeah. Like so if
Speaker 1: you really feel strongly about her and you don't want
Speaker 1: to lose her friendship, then it's worth a conversation. Yea.
Speaker 1: So how do you know when someone is truly your friend?
Speaker 1: That's friends come in all different forms. Yeah, you have.
Speaker 2: I feel like it's a feeling, like you know, when
Speaker 2: somebody support you and they're genuine, right.
Speaker 1: You have friends that are like the ones you can
Speaker 1: just call to chit chat. You have ones that you
Speaker 1: can call when you like really need something. You have
Speaker 1: friends that you just hang out with. So it really depends.
Speaker 1: It's like you can you can't expect one friend to
Speaker 1: be like to check all the boxes, right. If they do,
Speaker 1: then that's great, that's wonderful. But just because someone doesn't
Speaker 1: check all of the boxes or that doesn't mean that
Speaker 1: they can't be a friend totally. I think for you,
Speaker 1: it's just you gotta go with your gut in your
Speaker 1: heart and how she makes you feel. And if you
Speaker 1: feel like she's not happy for you, she's not supportive,
Speaker 1: you don't enjoy being around her, then yeah, I think
Speaker 1: you should probably scale the friendship back and just know
Speaker 1: that you can't really expect much from her.
Speaker 2: And I think sometimes stuff plays out like you just
Speaker 2: gotta let it play out. She's either going to show
Speaker 2: up as a friend or she's not, and you will
Speaker 2: know and then you cut her off, yeah, cause like
Speaker 2: you don't.
Speaker 1: You don't have to show me.
Speaker 2: Over and over again you don't really like me, yeah,
Speaker 2: and you just gotta show me like once.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But like just out said, she also could be
Speaker 1: dealing with just she did her own stuff, her own issues,
Speaker 1: her own time constraints, her own whatever it might be,
Speaker 1: you know, her own.
Speaker 2: Stress relationship she could be going through. Yeah, so so.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I say, like, don't throw her in
Speaker 1: the trash if it's like nothing on fast, put her
Speaker 1: in there. Put her in the refrigerator, not the freezer.
Speaker 1: Yeah okay, okay, because when somebody's in the freezer, they
Speaker 1: ain't never getting now they frozen. But put her in
Speaker 1: their freezer. Yeah, you can go back in write with her,
Speaker 1: yeah yea yeah, but manage your expectations. Yes, all right,
Speaker 1: this is our last one. Yeah, okay, So this here
Speaker 1: is from Ty Shane Hi Ty Shane tie tie ty
Speaker 1: Shane Shane Okay Shane to Shane, Okay to Shane or
Speaker 1: tie Shane hijaz Ellen Robin. I really need some advice.
Speaker 1: I have a friend I've known since like eighth ninth grade.
Speaker 1: We got closer after high school. After high school, not
Speaker 1: in a romantic way. So she has these friends that
Speaker 1: are full fledged right wing, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: They say the N word, they write it on her
Speaker 1: hands as a joke. They have rebel fled hanging in
Speaker 1: their bedrooms. I've told her it's not right and we
Speaker 1: just live in a place where these people get away
Speaker 1: with it. But instead she teaches her friend's three year
Speaker 1: old white child to say exactly what you think and
Speaker 1: wanted me to think it's funny. What. I really don't
Speaker 1: know what I should do. What I've definitely been a
Speaker 1: little harsh about because her father, who's from this twenty
Speaker 1: thousand population town, says they're okay, and I just don't
Speaker 1: think it's right. Now, if y'all could right back or
Speaker 1: put it in the show and I could send it
Speaker 1: to her, and she hears from too strong black, Wow,
Speaker 1: we gotta tell you what to do with the racists,
Speaker 1: Like we are not the racist police. Okay, you should
Speaker 1: know what to do with the racist right. Okay, so listen,
Speaker 1: this is a foolishness. Listen. If they see no problem
Speaker 1: with saying the N word or teaching it to kids,
Speaker 1: or having the rebel flags or being around that, then
Speaker 1: like you.
Speaker 2: Really shouldn't even have to ask us, Yes, the right
Speaker 2: is on the wall. Yeah, so and if you don't
Speaker 2: say anything, then you can owning it. So I suggest
Speaker 2: that you put your big girl panties on or big boy,
Speaker 2: panties on. Hot if it's a man or woman, put
Speaker 2: your panties on and go handle it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, because don't make us handle it. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: mean honestly, I would just just pull back. Yeah, pull back, No,
Speaker 1: not pull back. Let them know that that shit is wrong. Well,
Speaker 1: but they don't seem to think it they I mean,
Speaker 1: it seems like she's had I've definitely been a little
Speaker 1: harsh about it. Shane har Shane is they're okay when
Speaker 1: you feel something, say something. I feel like she has. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I told her it's not right. Okay, well we take
Speaker 1: it down. Yeah, and stop saying the N word. So
Speaker 1: you live in a place where people get away with
Speaker 1: this type of nonsense thoughts, process or behavior or mentality,
Speaker 1: and it's not right. And if they I just don't
Speaker 1: want that for you. I don't want you to subject
Speaker 1: yourself to that. I think you should pull back from
Speaker 1: that because if they don't think it's right today, they're
Speaker 1: not gonna think they're They're they're going to continue to think. Yes,
Speaker 1: if they think it's right today, they're going to continue
Speaker 1: to think that it's right tomorrow and forever and ever
Speaker 1: and ever. And with this new regime.
Speaker 2: I think we should all speak out about things that
Speaker 2: we know are not right and are not fair.
Speaker 1: And maybe because of the administration and Donald Trump and
Speaker 1: what's been going on, maybe they feel like it's okay.
Speaker 2: Yes, they feel really bold out here. They're really loud
Speaker 2: and proud, and it's wrong. So whoever you are, ty Shane,
Speaker 2: get into it and report back, report back to us
Speaker 2: that you told it's racist.
Speaker 1: To cut it out. Yeah, yeah, no, no, it's not okay.
Speaker 1: If someone I remember, shoot, I think I don't know
Speaker 1: if I shared this. I was on a cruise one
Speaker 1: and only cruise, yeah, first and last, with two of
Speaker 1: my girlfriends. We were young. We were like maybe still
Speaker 1: in college or just out of college. And you know,
Speaker 1: I'm light skinned black women, and they're they're fair skin
Speaker 1: but they they're not as you know, you look at him,
Speaker 1: you know that they're black women, at least from our perspective.
Speaker 1: So we started like hanging out with this white guy
Speaker 1: and he played. He was like a golfer. He was young.
Speaker 1: We were just hanging out with him, and out of nowhere,
Speaker 1: he just says the N word. What and we all like,
Speaker 1: excuse you? We all looked at each other. With confusion
Speaker 1: because we were like, he doesn't realize that we are
Speaker 1: black women. Apparently not, and we instantly were like, oh,
Speaker 1: got's to go, like, oh no, yes, we will not
Speaker 1: be hanging out with you anymore. We will not be
Speaker 1: talking to you.
Speaker 2: Yeahah no no no, Like I said, when you see something,
Speaker 2: say something like absolutely not, We're not doing it.
Speaker 1: And I think we said to him like we do
Speaker 1: you do you know that we're black? Like what he said,
Speaker 1: and he was like, it's so caught off, like he
Speaker 1: had no idea we were black. I'm like, what did
Speaker 1: I understand? Okay, you didn't know what I was. But
Speaker 1: my friends, I was like, what did you think they were? Maybe?
Speaker 1: I don't know. It was very weird, but as soon
Speaker 1: as he said the N word, we were out peace.
Speaker 1: Do not ever speak to us again ever. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: this is really really the Oh is this John Reid again? Yeah?

Speaker 1: I think so? And we were like and then Mariah
Speaker 1: Carey was his gay icon and realized, huh, I don't.
