Speaker 1: that is very very easy to do. All right. So
Speaker 1: we've got some some things to talk about, because this
Speaker 1: is a whole lot that's happening out here in these streets. Okay,
Speaker 1: So first and foremost, first and foremost, okay, um, because
Speaker 1: it's been like a lot of fallout from this, let's
Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta touch on that person that I
Speaker 1: not Kanye, because I said I was never gonna talk
Speaker 1: about Kanye again. But after we talk about this, dude,
Speaker 1: I'm never talking about him. And you're done, okay. R Kelly,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he's done. Okay. So so after the day
Speaker 1: when I talking about R Kelly, no need, no need, Okay.
Speaker 1: So R Kelly was convicted on racketeering and child molestation
Speaker 1: and and and abandonment and god knows it's a million things,
Speaker 1: as he should and um and he I think he
Speaker 1: might be sentenced to like a hundred and twenty five
Speaker 1: thousand years in prison. Great, okay, I'm glad to hear it.
Speaker 1: So out of nowhere from from the cheap seats come
Speaker 1: Bill Cosby talking about um, you know, R Kelly didn't
Speaker 1: get the justice that he deserved, and the judicial system
Speaker 1: needs to be looked upon because, um, I don't think
Speaker 1: this young man got a fair trial. Bill, you need
Speaker 1: just shut up the f up, like, shut up really quick.
Speaker 1: Look before someone else finds another charge to pull you
Speaker 1: up on. H be quiet, and why are you even
Speaker 1: chiming in? This man R. Kelly has destroyed so many
Speaker 1: young girls, so many families. He was, he's a predator
Speaker 1: on young girls, and we found out young boys like
Speaker 1: he is the worst of the worst of the worst
Speaker 1: of the worst. So Bill, shut it up, Shut it up. No,
Speaker 1: there's there's no I'm the stuff that R. Kellingtond is.
Speaker 1: You cannot you can't sugarcoat it. No, you can't make
Speaker 1: it what it was not. It probably was far worse
Speaker 1: than what we even know. Yes, I mean, imagine being
Speaker 1: a young girl and being you know, abused and um
Speaker 1: you know targeted like that. Imagine what that does to
Speaker 1: you for the rest of your life. But the rest
Speaker 1: of your life. So as real Cleary, I think I
Speaker 1: hope I'm saying her name right. She just did an
Speaker 1: interview with Gail. Now, if you remember, she also did
Speaker 1: an interview with Gail about a year or so ago,
Speaker 1: and she now sat down recently with Gail to say
Speaker 1: that everything she said then was a lie. Oh, and
Speaker 1: girl was like, what you mean you lied to me?
Speaker 1: And she was like, everything I said was a lie.
Speaker 1: He prepped us for days prior to their interview with Gail,
Speaker 1: and so that I missed every time. This just came
Speaker 1: out every time, Um, the question was asked, and if
Speaker 1: and if they didn't answer it properly in their prep,
Speaker 1: then he would be like, no, do it again, or no,
Speaker 1: say it this way. So he was very happy with
Speaker 1: the answers and responses that they gave then. Because Gail asked, like,
Speaker 1: you know, after the interview was over, what happened? They
Speaker 1: were like, oh he was. He was happy as a
Speaker 1: lark because they defended him, and she said, we lied
Speaker 1: about everything. This guy is horrible and all the people
Speaker 1: around him continue to tell him how old these girls were,
Speaker 1: and he just like brushed it off. Wow, Okay, So
Speaker 1: did she testify. I don't know if she testified, but
Speaker 1: you have to understand he was charged in New York, right,
Speaker 1: so he says charges pending in I think Minnesota. He's
Speaker 1: got charges pending in everywhere, everywhere, state. I don't know
Speaker 1: what the what the law is. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you after you've been convicted in one state, do you
Speaker 1: continue to do have trials in other states. I don't
Speaker 1: know how that works. But get him for all he's worth. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think he's worth anything. But put him under
Speaker 1: the jail, seriously, don't let him touch another person, yeah,
Speaker 1: after because he's got a problem. And and honestly put
Speaker 1: him in solitude because clearly he has a sickness, so
Speaker 1: he would probably be in jail enjoying himself, like and
Speaker 1: these people that were outside himself, right, these people that
Speaker 1: were outside the jail house, like Um singing his songs
Speaker 1: after he got convicted. Y'all are idiots. It's never last
Speaker 1: one of y'all. Y'all don't come for me. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: come for y'all. Y'all idiots. I cringe when I hear
Speaker 1: an R. Kelly song. First of all, I might be
Speaker 1: in the minority. I thought he was a Creek before, Like,
Speaker 1: I really was not a fan of his music before.
Speaker 1: Made me cringe before. But now I like Barth, Like, okay,
Speaker 1: I have to be honest. I did like chalk the factory. Okay,
Speaker 1: but not anymore, not anymore factory be damned. Okay, Now
Speaker 1: let's move want to Nick and Kevin heart. Now this
Speaker 1: actually warms my heart because and I think you would
Speaker 1: appreciate this because you know, they've been playing pranks on
Speaker 1: each other and you do they like put the someone's
Speaker 1: phone number on the billboard, so Kevin put Okay, so
Speaker 1: let's back up. Nick gave Kevin a llama for his birthday,
Speaker 1: which shipped it all over Kevin's property. Okay. Then Kevin
Speaker 1: in in return, posted a billboard with Nick's phone number,
Speaker 1: his personal cell phone number, and everybody their grandmother was calling,
Speaker 1: timing everything change that, yes, yes, but having here, I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, how crazy is that? Like Nick has to
Speaker 1: call all of his baby mama's how all of them
Speaker 1: phone number? Like it's inconvenience, Like Kevin has inconvenience. Name.
Speaker 1: So Nick snuck into his hanger to Kevin's hangar and
Speaker 1: put his face on Kevin's plane. How do you do that?
Speaker 1: Like he had it wrapped with his because Kevin because
Speaker 1: Nick is coming out with a new show. Okay, so
Speaker 1: I call bullshit, But okay, who let you in the
Speaker 1: hangar and do that and let you do that, Okay,
Speaker 1: I could still Okay, fine, let's be entertained. I feel
Speaker 1: like Nick paid somebody off, okay to get into the hangar,
Speaker 1: and then he wrapped it with an advertisement of his
Speaker 1: new show that's coming out, which is kind of cool, excute.
Speaker 1: So when Kevin is flying around, he'll be advertising Nick Chian.
Speaker 1: That's kind of cool. Now. I was thinking we should
Speaker 1: play pranks on each other, Robin, but Robin, I think
Speaker 1: you you might go too far. I might win. Robin's
Speaker 1: gonna win, okay, And if we did prank each other,
Speaker 1: I might get mad, it might in our friendship. Never mind,
Speaker 1: I was getting excited. Come on, you know I lived
Speaker 1: with because Robin's prankster. Yeah, I'm a I'm a prankster.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm like a own. I'm like a guy's girl,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like, I've been around one
Speaker 1: who's an athlete. I've been around his brothers and cousins
Speaker 1: and who are athletes. I've been around his college teammates, Like,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry that the male athletes are like prank's biggest jokesters, pranks, pranks, pranksters,
Speaker 1: and so yeah, you in trouble is it. Are we
Speaker 1: doing this? We're not doing it. We're not doing it.
Speaker 1: We're not doing it. Okay, fine, we'll do it season seven. Okay,
Speaker 1: season seven, if we make it to season seven, if
Speaker 1: Bravo wants us back, yeah, I don't know. It's not
Speaker 1: looking good, y'all. If Bravo wants us back, then Robin
Speaker 1: and Giselle will be pranking each other. But the question
Speaker 1: is who starts first. We shall see, we shall see,
Speaker 1: all right. I happened to be home on the day
Speaker 1: that Kamala Harris was supposed to be on the View?
Speaker 1: Were you home that day? I was? And I stepped
Speaker 1: away in the TV from the TV okay, and I
Speaker 1: came back and it was two people left, and I
Speaker 1: was like what. Okay. First of all, they had been
Speaker 1: advertising that for our vice president, the beautiful Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: was going to be on the View for a week. Okay, whoop.
Speaker 1: He was sick, she had um, she had something scadicau
Speaker 1: something I don't know. It was trying to get whoop
Speaker 1: you back, because you know, we all need will be
Speaker 1: to ask the vice president some very important questions, okay,
Speaker 1: and like, let's be clear, we've we've been having some
Speaker 1: extreme issues at our borders in Texas with the Haitians,
Speaker 1: and we all know how Sunny Houston, who by the way,
Speaker 1: it's my sore roar ski we my sore roar Um
Speaker 1: feels about it. She's worked up as we all. Yes,
Speaker 1: she let him have it. Yeah, she let him have it.
Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, I didn't nowhere because they
Speaker 1: were like, okay, Joey bear Joy Behard was like, okay,
Speaker 1: is that our last name? She was like, okay, when
Speaker 1: we come back from break, um, the vice president will
Speaker 1: be sitting here. So we come back from brain no
Speaker 1: if as president and then they say Sonny and Anna
Speaker 1: get out, so they leave and then they come back
Speaker 1: and say, okay, well they tested positive for COVID. So
Speaker 1: that was something in my spirit, right, something spirits saying
Speaker 1: it ain't right, it ain't right. What did you feel
Speaker 1: your spirit? One? Yes, I was like, um, what do
Speaker 1: you mean they tested positive for COVID? You're just figuring
Speaker 1: this out. I'm going to say that a production such
Speaker 1: as there's just testing very frequently and before anyone can
Speaker 1: stop foot in the building, they know of what their
Speaker 1: their status is. You know, they know what their test
Speaker 1: result is so I'm calling bullshit that they found out
Speaker 1: right then in there in that moment. But my question
Speaker 1: is like why for what? Why? Okay, so this is
Speaker 1: my fore and for what? So I think that calms people.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say that Kamala was scared. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say her people, we're scared of the question ends that
Speaker 1: Sunny and Anna had for the vice president because you
Speaker 1: know that Sonny was coming for the jugular about the
Speaker 1: Haitians that were at the border in Texas. So I
Speaker 1: really feel like one or two of device presidents people
Speaker 1: was like, you know why you need to get them
Speaker 1: about it here, but and it's not your son. Anna
Speaker 1: Navarro is a tough cookie and both of them, both
Speaker 1: of them, and you know, Sunny, Sunny is extremely Sunny
Speaker 1: is extremely smart and right, and she's you know, she's
Speaker 1: on the right side of right, of my right, and
Speaker 1: she she doesn't She asked questions in a way that
Speaker 1: are direct, borderline offensive, but in a good way, and
Speaker 1: you cannot skirt it, like you gotta answer. She's gonna
Speaker 1: be like, you can't answer my question. So I think
Speaker 1: I'm like a screwed or people got scared somebody got
Speaker 1: scared up in that camp and anyone else thought that, like,
Speaker 1: have we did you come up with this yourself? This
Speaker 1: is my own conspiracy. This is my theory, and I'm
Speaker 1: sticking with it. I actually like that because didn't they
Speaker 1: say afterwards that they tested negative? Yes, and then twenty
Speaker 1: four later negative and they're back on TV like they
Speaker 1: were back on TV the next day, y'all a liars. Okay,
Speaker 1: they didn't have the COVID, They just had just commonly
Speaker 1: just had the scaries. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what that wash. Now,
Speaker 1: And you're talking about your other so over look at that.
Speaker 1: I know, I know, and in common I love you though,
Speaker 1: I do. I mean, I'm not trying to trash you
Speaker 1: in anyway. I think I think you're amazing. Now. Do
Speaker 1: we have some immigration issues, Yes, we do, ma'am, so
Speaker 1: you know you need to handle that. But I think
Speaker 1: as far as you standing up and representing a black woman,
Speaker 1: you're doing a mighty fine job. Yes. And what was
Speaker 1: the topic. What was the reason for Commula's visit? Which
Speaker 1: was it? It wasn't to talk about it was a
Speaker 1: talkh about Yeah, I think it was kind of like
Speaker 1: to talk about everything. But that was so hot at
Speaker 1: the at the moment. And by the way, have we
Speaker 1: fixed this immigration issue, because because they're not showing it
Speaker 1: on the news anymore, it has all of a sudden disappeared.
Speaker 1: But I don't believe it's disappeared. Yeah no, I mean
Speaker 1: the last thing I saw was what they had some
Speaker 1: they flew some people back, and then like, well then
Speaker 1: what happens? Where are they going? What are they doing? Okay?
Speaker 1: But why why is it to we fly to Haitians?
Speaker 1: But our director of operations, Carly is Haitian and she
Speaker 1: probably has yeah, gi any insight on this issue. Let's
Speaker 1: pass through the mike. Okay, we want to hear from Carly. Everyone, everyone,
Speaker 1: here's Carly. Yes, you get to hear a voice and everything. Um,
Speaker 1: the Haitians that they flew back to Haiti weren't even
Speaker 1: coming from Haiti. They're not Haitian. I mean they're Haitian,
Speaker 1: but they weren't coming from Hay. They were coming from Brazil, Argentina,
Speaker 1: those countries. So they flew them back somewhere where they home.
Speaker 1: Why they do that? They flew them back to Haiti. Okay,
Speaker 1: now now this sounds even more crazy. Okay, like Okay,
Speaker 1: so Kamala, I know, I just don't be mad at me.
Speaker 1: But guess what you might be want to be mad
Speaker 1: at me because that sounds crazy. But why I don't
Speaker 1: even understand how did they even you know what? Why
Speaker 1: up into that? That makes sense because my question was
Speaker 1: always in my mind. How did they get to Texas
Speaker 1: from Haiti? Because that's that you would die before you
Speaker 1: did that. So that makes sense. They were coming from Brazil,
Speaker 1: they were coming from Okay, that makes sense. This is deep.
Speaker 1: This is very deep. But but even deeper is why
Speaker 1: are they being flown anywhere? Because we don't fly back uh,
Speaker 1: the Afghanistan people, because we scooped them up and brought here.
Speaker 1: We don't really we don't fly back to Mexicans. We
Speaker 1: don't fly back actually anyone. Okay, So um, I mean
Speaker 1: we know, we know what it is. This is bad
Speaker 1: and people who are you know, kind of know what
Speaker 1: they're doing. They need to keep their feet on the
Speaker 1: necks of the people who need to do something. So
Speaker 1: let's not let us. Um. I don't know what to do,
Speaker 1: so hopefully the people who do know what to do
Speaker 1: figure it out. Keep it pushing. Now, um, you remember
Speaker 1: back in the day it was. There was an album
Speaker 1: that was like our favorite. It was called The Score,
Speaker 1: and it was like that thing, that thing. Okay, fine,
Speaker 1: it was Lauren Hill and yes, one of yes, one
Speaker 1: of the best albums ever, one of the best albums ever.
Speaker 1: The Fuji y'all. So this means that because okay, we're
Speaker 1: putting this out there. So either you if you don't
Speaker 1: know what we're talking about, either you oh are you
Speaker 1: too young? But if you know what we're talked about,
Speaker 1: you just right right, okay, you're right in the middle.
Speaker 1: So they this is the anniversary of that of The
Speaker 1: Score that Oh my gosh, I'm oldest stern what I
Speaker 1: was in college. Let me tell you something that that
Speaker 1: whole album yes, oh yeah, no, that was the misconception
Speaker 1: of Lauren Hill. Okay, anyway, it doesn't even matter, Rob
Speaker 1: got it, girl, I got anything. Around the same time.
Speaker 1: So they, um are gonna go on tour to celebrate this,
Speaker 1: and I got so excited. I was like, I'm getting
Speaker 1: my tickets. I'm gonna get something for my kids. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna show them what music really sound like. And then um,
Speaker 1: they had like a show and they were like two
Speaker 1: hours late for the show that happens. I feel like
Speaker 1: every time I hear about a Lauren Hill show, she's
Speaker 1: two to three hours late. And then but and then
Speaker 1: she like performed one song and she's done right, she
Speaker 1: gets winded and she's got to go on the back. Okay,
Speaker 1: so they were two hours late and then what happened?
Speaker 1: That's pretty much that's that it stops and starts there
Speaker 1: with me that I feel like it didn't we like
Speaker 1: last week, go to um Candice's album released, Being Reasonable guys,
Speaker 1: and she was shaped. I mean she was um like
Speaker 1: late many hours Okay. Okay, so let's wrap up this
Speaker 1: foojie and we're gonna get Okay, let me just say
Speaker 1: I am not buying any tickets to this concert because
Speaker 1: y'all ain't gonna have me sitting there for to know. Okay.
Speaker 1: So that's that on there opening act, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Let's s let's get to Kandas Dillard Bessett. Okay, she's
Speaker 1: a friend of ours, and she yes, she she released
Speaker 1: deep Space. Okay, we're giving a little plug ft one.
Speaker 1: Listen to it, you know, listen to Reason We Shady
Speaker 1: and then put on deep Space. Yes, so Candas had

Speaker 1: in southeast g C. And um, I decided to you know,
Speaker 1: be in the in the streets past my bedtime. Okay,
Speaker 1: and so did Robin. He was all up in it
Speaker 1: with heels on and everything, hells on everything. So, um
Speaker 1: the club opened at ten, okay, so we're thinking Kandice
Speaker 1: is gonna give us a stage. There was a live band.
Speaker 1: What time did you think he was gonna see candas
Speaker 1: on the stage? Like I would say, like eleven thirty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's reasonable, right, that's reasonable. But the shadiness of
Speaker 1: it all. She got on stage at one thirty in
Speaker 1: the more team. Yes, so what's the next day? She
Speaker 1: got one? The next day, I thought I was going
Speaker 1: to be in my bid. I thought I was gonna
Speaker 1: be home in my bed because you know, I leave
Speaker 1: the house and the kid, Oh when you come in back.
Speaker 1: I said, I'll be home one o'clock. You know, I
Speaker 1: was still in the club, right, So I actually brought
Speaker 1: Shereise with me. Shereise um Jordan, who we love dearly.
Speaker 1: I told her at about two one to five in
Speaker 1: the morning, we got about fifteen more minutes and we're
Speaker 1: out here because Candice came out and sang one song?
Speaker 1: Is She laughed when she saying, I know, yes, she
Speaker 1: sang one song. Well, Beyonce wantn't to have um she
Speaker 1: sang one song and there was something wrong with her audio, okay,
Speaker 1: and so I think she like went back and so
Speaker 1: that they could get the audio together. But yeah, Beyonce
Speaker 1: would have said it stood there and said okay, now y'all,
Speaker 1: y'all better fix my audio. Right, Okay, yes you know,
Speaker 1: but I mean, look, and we're not criticizing Candice. We're
Speaker 1: just saying I was a little sleepy, but I want
Speaker 1: to say she was fantastic. Yeah. I literally was like wow,
Speaker 1: like she's like a true artist, like really like you know,
Speaker 1: with her her vocals and her dance stuffs and just
Speaker 1: the whole just you know, package it was. I was
Speaker 1: so impressed. But yes, she had us out late. So
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, next time if you go
Speaker 1: to the Fuji's concert, you'll be prepared because we went well.
Speaker 1: I mean, let me just say that all artists should
Speaker 1: do or say to themselves and should be on loop
Speaker 1: in the back of their mind. What would Beyonce do
Speaker 1: because Beyonce's concerts if the ticket says eight o'clock, eight
Speaker 1: o five. You're gonna hear what three done? Like she
Speaker 1: is ready? Okay, So just all these artists out here
Speaker 1: in the streets, just what would Beyonce do? And just
Speaker 1: do that because Beyonce, we keep coming back. I've been
Speaker 1: to probably like eight Beyonce concerts. I've probably been a
Speaker 1: five Beyonce to Beyonce and jay Z to Destiny's Child
Speaker 1: because i know what I'm gonna get and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be satisfied. Yes, okay, So moving on, UM, I would
Speaker 1: like to say that, um, and this is for the
Speaker 1: d O O Carly to write down if I've ever
Speaker 1: um lost in these streets or y'all can't find me.
Speaker 1: I want the Kelly Price treatment. Okay, I want the
Speaker 1: Kelly Price treatment because everybody and they grandmother's painties was
Speaker 1: in a bunch over Kelly, oh my gosh, and she
Speaker 1: probably was just sitting somewhere like, oh my god. I
Speaker 1: just wanted some alone time. Who do not do? Do
Speaker 1: not know? Who? Kelly Prices. She's a gospel singer, she's
Speaker 1: an R and B singer. She's been out and these
Speaker 1: you know, she's been out singing a A A you know,
Speaker 1: reputable artist for years, maybe like years or so, and
Speaker 1: she got COVID and somewhere along the she she was married.
Speaker 1: She's not married anymore. She has children. I think that
Speaker 1: here semigrown anywhere. Somewhere along the line she got missing
Speaker 1: and her getting It's like she went to the hospital
Speaker 1: and she was released from the hospital, and then no
Speaker 1: one knew where she was or they didn't know she
Speaker 1: was released from the hospital, but she was with the boyfriend.
Speaker 1: And I think the issue is the boyfriend might be
Speaker 1: a little shady um not not just sell shady, but
Speaker 1: like shady shady, you know what I'm saying. It's a difference,
Speaker 1: like date line. Okay, So so everybody was up in arms,
Speaker 1: like the brat got involved. She did a p s
Speaker 1: A on Instagram like where is my friend? Like leave
Speaker 1: my friend's name out your mouth, and then the kids
Speaker 1: was like where is mama? And then the sister came
Speaker 1: and was like, I just need to see her face
Speaker 1: and I feel good about my life I see her face.
Speaker 1: And if Kelly said god damn it and got on
Speaker 1: Instagram and said I'm right here, this is where I am,
Speaker 1: and I need if y'all stop talking about me. Okay,
Speaker 1: I had to covid a flat line, but I'm back
Speaker 1: again flat So I'm just she said she flat line.
Speaker 1: She's saying I don't know if she used the word
Speaker 1: flat line. Oh my gosh. Okay, So why was she
Speaker 1: Why didn't she answer her phone? Like, listen, why didn't
Speaker 1: you answer your phone? With the phone? Then, Kelly and
Speaker 1: explained nothing. She didn't explain nothing. She didn't say why
Speaker 1: she didn't call her kids, her sister. But clearly she
Speaker 1: called the brat because the brat had her back. Okay,
Speaker 1: And by the way, to Brad, I want you to
Speaker 1: have my back if I go missing? Can you can
Speaker 1: you do a p s A for just say, hell,
Speaker 1: if I go missing, Robin, can you got my back?
Speaker 1: Like that? I got your back? But can you can
Speaker 1: you answer your phone because something like just something I
Speaker 1: just want to Kelly Price can't. But you know, in
Speaker 1: all seriousness, it probably it was definitely on the heels
Speaker 1: of um the guy that went missing, the grad student
Speaker 1: in Illinois, Gelanni day we went missing, and he had
Speaker 1: been missing for a while, and it seemed like nobody
Speaker 1: was talking about it. So I think, you know, when
Speaker 1: it was like, Okay, we gotta make sure we can't
Speaker 1: let this time pass. We gotta make sure we you know,
Speaker 1: we let people know we're looking for Kelly. So I
Speaker 1: I um, and I'm with I know I'm joking, but
Speaker 1: in all seriously, I'm happy she's okay. Um, I'm you know,
Speaker 1: I hope that her lungs weren't compromised to the point
Speaker 1: where she can't sing again because she has a beautiful voice. Um,
Speaker 1: so you know, all prayers for Kelly Price for sure, Yes,
Speaker 1: for sure. That was funny. Will Smith decided to make
Speaker 1: a revelation or an announcement. It was like a big announcement.
Speaker 1: It was like seeing a worthy like, well, we know
Speaker 1: you and Jayda have an open relationship, Like you didn't know,
Speaker 1: but we I'm you found out with the entanglement, but
Speaker 1: we already I'm being shady today. You really are, Oh
Speaker 1: my gosh. But I was like, hold up, why, like like,
Speaker 1: why which which which? Why why did he make an announcement? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Why do you think it was even necessary to make
Speaker 1: that announcement? We all knew that already, we knew weever,
Speaker 1: and actually we were cool with it. We looked the
Speaker 1: other way. We said, Okay, that's they're just doing them.
Speaker 1: We didn't need an announcement that was that was strange.
Speaker 1: But hey, I guess you know in this this, you know,
Speaker 1: I think it's it's weird. It's like years ago, celebrities
Speaker 1: were so private. You know, they weren't on Instagram, they
Speaker 1: weren't on YouTube, they weren't on Twitter, and they were
Speaker 1: so private and they valued their privacy. And then somewhere
Speaker 1: along the way, you know, celebrities felt the need to
Speaker 1: share their life. And I think they realized, Okay, well,
Speaker 1: if I'm going to be sharing my life, I can't
Speaker 1: run from the truth anymore, like I can't hide it.
Speaker 1: And so I'm sure he was just like boss to
Speaker 1: the wall, okay, like right right, And speaking of celebrity,
Speaker 1: Shaquille made an announcement that he does not want to
Speaker 1: be a celebrity anymore, but it's not up to you.
Speaker 1: And he said, I am denouncing celebrity. I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: be he said, I'm being a regular schmgeler. Shaquille. You're
Speaker 1: like seven eight, like holl Toller is he He's like,
Speaker 1: he's probably like I don't know, seven to seven to
Speaker 1: you what four und pounds. Honey, sir, you can't hide.
Speaker 1: We know who you are. Can run but you cannot.
Speaker 1: And celebrity is what you will be. Can I tell
Speaker 1: you what commercial is? It? Is? It? It's one of
Speaker 1: those commercials and he has on the wig and like
Speaker 1: he has on the disguise. And I don't care how
Speaker 1: many times I've seen this commercial. I crack up everything
Speaker 1: because I literally think about, like, oh my god, if
Speaker 1: Shaquille O'Neil walked, like walked in front of me with
Speaker 1: this damn disguise on, nobody's falling for this. It is
Speaker 1: the funniest thing. It's falling for the bandon and tell
Speaker 1: pie Shaquille you you are celebrity, sir? Sorry, I mean,
Speaker 1: like Shaquille, just where where should he move? Like? Where
Speaker 1: should we just tell him to move to anywhere? You
Speaker 1: have a job on ESPN, don't you? And you have
Speaker 1: a job on T and T T and so'd your
Speaker 1: job number one? Do you want to do that? Sell
Speaker 1: all your papa jahns? Do you want to do that? Now?
Speaker 1: You do? Not? What else? He got? Everything he's got
Speaker 1: he owns like a bunch of stuff. But then doesn't
Speaker 1: he want to be like a police officer. He can
Speaker 1: be a police officer, colonel he wants he can be
Speaker 1: a sheriff and he can be a colonel, but he
Speaker 1: will be a celebrity sheriff for the rest of his life. Yes, um, now,
Speaker 1: I just I just need we do need to talk
Speaker 1: about our um the ladies that came before us and
Speaker 1: that would be the Real Housewives of Atlanta. A couple
Speaker 1: of things. One we want to say we're praying for
Speaker 1: Nini now in and for a while, you know, resting.
Speaker 1: He's Greg Leaks. Um. I don't know if you've ever
Speaker 1: met Greg, but Greg was a guy that touched anybody
Speaker 1: that he came in contact with. Just like I've never
Speaker 1: met him, I've heard wonderful things about him, just like
Speaker 1: a real genuine dude. Um love Greg Leaks. Also, Cynthia
Speaker 1: Bailey is the Queen. Cynthia Bailey is moving in another direction.
Speaker 1: She will no longer be a part of the Atlanta franchise.
Speaker 1: What a staple like, Yes, like Atlanta staple. Yes, icon
Speaker 1: We've seen Cynthia get married twice, right, Yes, we have.
Speaker 1: And it's so cool to watch like her first season
Speaker 1: on Atlanta because you can totally see like she we
Speaker 1: like we've seen her mature and grow and develop and
Speaker 1: become this beautiful queen before our eyes. Yes. Yes, so Cynthia,
Speaker 1: your face, your your whole story, you and Noel, y'all
Speaker 1: will all be missed. Um, and then our other queen
Speaker 1: are crazy Queen from the streets, Porsche Williams will no
Speaker 1: longer be a part of the Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Speaker 1: And you know, I love me some Porsche. I'd love
Speaker 1: to see her work and have crazy and silly and
Speaker 1: I feel like she's going to be a big hole
Speaker 1: in that franchise. Oh yeah, she's definitely going to be missed.
Speaker 1: She definitely brought a lot of the fun silliness and
Speaker 1: but you know she she's still gonna be on Bravo.
Speaker 1: She's gonna have her show. Yes, I think that's actually
Speaker 1: pretty cool that, um, she's gonna have a show about
Speaker 1: her life and not have to really deal with like
Speaker 1: the drama. Yes, I mean it's it's like definitely cool.
Speaker 1: And it's actually if you're gonna if you're gonna leave
Speaker 1: the franchise, that's what you want, right, It's it's kind
Speaker 1: of like she's leaving on top. I mean, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of controversy in her life. But I think I
Speaker 1: think she's in an awesome position. Um, and I think
Speaker 1: it's cool. I think the show, her show will be
Speaker 1: similar to how we feel about our podcast, where it's like,
Speaker 1: you know, you get to learn a lot more about
Speaker 1: us outside of the drama. And so I think with
Speaker 1: her show, we'll get to learn a lot more about
Speaker 1: her and and honestly, I could picture her going back
Speaker 1: like for me, this is not a not a goodbye. Well,
Speaker 1: Andy said it was a pause. He says he doesn't
Speaker 1: want to look at it as a goodbye. Yes, I
Speaker 1: wonder Fandy will say that to me if ever I
Speaker 1: leave the real house fives Potome, he might say goodbye
Speaker 1: to Range. Okay. Anyway, So we have a segment that
Speaker 1: we we are now loving. It's called you ask and
Speaker 1: we answer, And there was one there's a couple that
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to. We're actually running out of time.
Speaker 1: We're just having so much fun today, so you got
Speaker 1: are you okay? So? Um, And people ask me this
Speaker 1: a lot because I have three girls that are around
Speaker 1: the same age. Grace is eighteen months older than the twins,
Speaker 1: and so the question is how do I manage spending
Speaker 1: time with each of your daughters and not leaving anyone out.
Speaker 1: This particular person has three kids, six, ten, and twelve,
Speaker 1: and they have very different personalities. So let me tell
Speaker 1: you something that is extremely hard. So I have to
Speaker 1: intend really work on spending individual time with my kids.
Speaker 1: UM it's a little easier because I have twins, and
Speaker 1: the twins want to do things together with me, but
Speaker 1: they still want their own individual time. So I can
Speaker 1: say that every day. You know that I'm home pretty
Speaker 1: much at night. Um, the girls always come into my room,
Speaker 1: but they come in one by one. So Angel comes
Speaker 1: in first, and she and I have like a time
Speaker 1: to like just go over our day, what happened. She
Speaker 1: wants to tell me her highs and lows. She wants
Speaker 1: to give me what happened in her classes. Angels very smart,
Speaker 1: She's gonna break down, She's gonna use several words I
Speaker 1: don't know the definition of. And we're just gonna have
Speaker 1: our like all one time. Um Adora will come in
Speaker 1: and and then Grace will come in. I I typically
Speaker 1: go to Grace's room and spend time with her. Um,
Speaker 1: she doesn't she doesn't really require much. Grace just you know,
Speaker 1: she wants a quick hug, and she wants me to
Speaker 1: tell her she's beautiful because she is, and she's off
Speaker 1: a door. I get hurt a long time with her
Speaker 1: because like on the weekends when I run errands, she's
Speaker 1: like my road dog. So if I have to go
Speaker 1: to the cleaners or um, whatever I need to do,
Speaker 1: she's in the car with me and she's running my
Speaker 1: little errands and she loves to do it, and we
Speaker 1: just talk and laugh. And that is the way. It
Speaker 1: doesn't happen all the time, but it happens organically that
Speaker 1: but you do. You do have to be intentional about
Speaker 1: like giving your children their own moments, because they're looking
Speaker 1: for it, they want it. Yes, it's always great when
Speaker 1: we're all together, but they definitely want their own individual time. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I saw you recently post um, you and the
Speaker 1: twins went to tea right now, yes, And I thought
Speaker 1: that was so nice. It was like your time with
Speaker 1: the twins. And I know I've seen you do stuff
Speaker 1: one on one with Grace and I think that, I mean, gosh,
Speaker 1: like you're already so busy, and so the fact that
Speaker 1: you make it a priority to spend time with each
Speaker 1: individual or you know, the twins and Grace or whatever
Speaker 1: like that's that's so admirable. Thank you, and I think
Speaker 1: that's going to like just your girls will forever remember that.
Speaker 1: Before the pandemic, I decided we were going to go
Speaker 1: to like different places for high tea because because they
Speaker 1: like it. They're a little bougie kids, a little bougie,
Speaker 1: so we're exposing them to the fine. So, um, I
Speaker 1: couldn't get a reservation at the Mandarin, that's like a
Speaker 1: really nice one, and so the pandemic hid. Of course
Speaker 1: we didn't do anything. But now the Mandarin they have
Speaker 1: all kinds of reservations available. So that's where we went,
Speaker 1: and that's actually where we have been trying to go
Speaker 1: before the pandemic. So it was great. And now we're
Speaker 1: we're on a quest. We'll be on we'll be doing
Speaker 1: high tea all the time now. Pandemic. That's the type
Speaker 1: of stuff that I hear that makes me want a
Speaker 1: little girl. Yeah, it's a little girls just special. I mean,
Speaker 1: like I keep my boys. Can I take my boys
Speaker 1: to high tea? No? You cannot, No, we cannot, but
Speaker 1: I love my boys. Yes, Um, all right, so let's
Speaker 1: see I have um how hard was it to start
Speaker 1: your business? How did you know that it was what
Speaker 1: you wanted to do and where to start? So, UM,
Speaker 1: I think I'm I'm glad you asked this. I actually
Speaker 1: had a lot of questions about business, and I know
Speaker 1: we talked about business and another UM episode, but just
Speaker 1: for anyone, like starting a business is not hard, you know,
Speaker 1: like it's it's it's a matter of doing your research
Speaker 1: and just doing it. And so if you're going to
Speaker 1: start a business, I recommend of course, you know, forming
Speaker 1: your your llc UM, you know whatever the name of
Speaker 1: your business might be, researching and making sure it's not
Speaker 1: taken from you know, somewhere else. UM. I have an
Speaker 1: e commerce business and so I sell online and Shopify
Speaker 1: has made it's so easy to build a business. You know,
Speaker 1: you can just it doesn't matter. You can have one product,
Speaker 1: you can build your go to Shopify, follow the instructions,
Speaker 1: build your website, and bam you have a business. So
Speaker 1: you need a tax ID number to to officially run
Speaker 1: a business. UM, and you get that with your staying well,
Speaker 1: you get the tax I D number from the Fed. Yes,
Speaker 1: and then you ate one. So you get your art,
Speaker 1: you form your articles of incorporation with the state UM,
Speaker 1: but make sure you get a text idea renumber with
Speaker 1: the fed UM and then UM. Honestly, I think when
Speaker 1: people think about starting a business, they think it has
Speaker 1: to be like super successful right out the gate, or
Speaker 1: that they have to you know, achieve a certain amount
Speaker 1: of sales or whatever. I always tell people it's okay
Speaker 1: to start very very very small. Just start with small
Speaker 1: goals and say, you know what if I just I
Speaker 1: want to make one sale this week, and then you
Speaker 1: next week, Okay, I want to make five sales, and
Speaker 1: then next month I want to make thirties said whatever
Speaker 1: it is. So don't overthink it. Just started, just start,
Speaker 1: just get started. Yes, just do it. And literally if
Speaker 1: you just start working on your website, if you're not
Speaker 1: ready to launch it, just you know, work on it
Speaker 1: at night if you have a day job, you know,
Speaker 1: after the kids go to sleep, whatever, hop on your computer,
Speaker 1: start working on your website, one little you know, tag
Speaker 1: at a time. And so don't make the mountain bigger
Speaker 1: than what it is. Just just tackle it in little,
Speaker 1: small doses and don't overthink it's it's don't overthink it
Speaker 1: because all you have to do is just get started. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I mean, I'm telling you we're so blessed to
Speaker 1: live in the age that we do now. I would
Speaker 1: not have my business if this was probably five years
Speaker 1: ago or ten years ago. There's so many resources out
Speaker 1: here for you to have a business. I mean, of
Speaker 1: course you have social media and stuff, but I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: like building a website and starting a business is very easy.
Speaker 1: So don't let us stop you. So I love that one.
Speaker 1: One last one because we gotta wrap up is somebody
Speaker 1: asked me, and I get this a lot, and it's
Speaker 1: very weird. Um, where did you get your green ice from? Okay,
Speaker 1: we're talking about like who in your family. So my
Speaker 1: dad's father had blue eyes, my mom has like olive
Speaker 1: colored eyes because it was on both sides of the family.
Speaker 1: Then I got green eyes. Now when Grace was born,
Speaker 1: So all the nurses are looking at me. They see
Speaker 1: I have green eyes. When my Grace was born, every
Speaker 1: nurse on the floor of the hospital came into the
Speaker 1: room to see to see, yes, if this if this
Speaker 1: baby was gonna have green eyes. And the moment they
Speaker 1: looked at it, they all left the room and I
Speaker 1: was like, damn, I mean, but she beautiful. Why I
Speaker 1: gotta do like that? It was not right, but anyway,
Speaker 1: it was, it was, it was. It was funny, but
Speaker 1: it was interesting to see like they just they were
Speaker 1: and they were all interested. They were talking about it.
Speaker 1: Mind you, I'm jogged up, I'm pushing like it's the
Speaker 1: last thing that you want to even deal with. But
Speaker 1: I do remember, and it did not pass down to
Speaker 1: any of my children, but hopefully it'll pass down to right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and that's so funny. Of course I share, you know,
Speaker 1: similar story. So my green eyes. My my mother has
Speaker 1: hazel eyes. My father is brown eyes, but his mother
Speaker 1: has blue eyes. There it is my cousin on my
Speaker 1: father's side as blue eyes. My brother has hazel eyes.
Speaker 1: So it's like coming from both sides, and it's so funny.
Speaker 1: Remember a previous podcast we talked. I talked about the
Speaker 1: story about like when people would tell me I had
Speaker 1: pretty eyes and I'm like, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: My cousin texted me. She says she listened to the podcast.
Speaker 1: She was like, oh my gosh, I felt that happened
Speaker 1: to me. I had no idea what people were talking about.
Speaker 1: So like I think because we looked around our family
Speaker 1: and everyone had light eyes, like we just thought it
Speaker 1: was normal. But um, when I was pregnant and I
Speaker 1: knew I had boys, I was like, I hope they
Speaker 1: don't get light eyes because they're gonna boys eyes. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't want my boys to have light eyes. And
Speaker 1: so you know, Corey's got brown and carters like like
Speaker 1: a lighter brown. So they're good. But I just don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just something about it, like sometimes
Speaker 1: I think they get picked on, like you're a pretty boy.
Speaker 1: I didn't want my boys to be pretty boy. Well
Speaker 1: they are anyway without the light eyes. And yeah they're
Speaker 1: they're krety eyes. Well, people, I think that is our episode.
Speaker 1: I we have had a fun time chit chatting and
Speaker 1: laughing with you guys. Um as always, We'll be back
Speaker 1: next week and don't forget if if you live your
