<v Speaker 2>I just want you to know that I love soft bacon.

0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 2>It's not chewy bacon. I'm sure there aren't many of us,

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:26.800
<v Speaker 2>but we are out here.

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:28.840

<v Speaker 2>I love you forever. Okay, thank you Kelcher. Okay, but

0:01:40.600 --> 0:01:41.759
<v Speaker 2>soft bacon is disgusting.

0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I think there's a level of soft bacon because

0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 4>there's some crispy bacon that is too crispy. I can

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 4>see where the crispy can go overboard if it's burnt.

0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:59.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, so not burnt crispy, but like but also

0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:02.840
<v Speaker 4>not crispy where it's like all the pieces are breaking up.

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 4>I like that, really, Yes, it's.

0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:07.800
<v Speaker 3>All breaking up in my mouth. That's so good. Yeah,

0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 3>Like I don't.

0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:10.920
<v Speaker 4>Want all the pieces to break up. She just wouldn't

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:12.560
<v Speaker 4>be like a little little Chris.

0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, but not soft soft is like not cooked almost right,

0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:19.320

0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 4>like you know, I'll be in the shower and I

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:33.280
<v Speaker 4>have like this great idea and I'll of course forget it.

0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:35.640

0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:37.280
<v Speaker 4>the shower and put it down on my notes before

0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:38.760

0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:17.119
<v Speaker 4>I only wipe with my right hand.

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:17.559
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:20.280
<v Speaker 4>But still it's like cross contamination. Okay, So I have

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:56.680
<v Speaker 2>emails and you've probably emailed us like twenty times back

0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.360

0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:01.280

<v Speaker 5>This is it.

0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:04.039
<v Speaker 3>Hi, ladies, love the show.

0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:07.200
<v Speaker 2>Robin gave a shout out to the producer for editing

0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:09.640
<v Speaker 2>something she wanted out of the show and raved about

0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 2>how amazing producers are. And she's right, that is very true.

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.159
<v Speaker 2>Producers are amazing. Yes, you guys have no clue. Yeah,

0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:17.440
<v Speaker 2>how amazing they are.

0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:18.800
<v Speaker 4>Hey, Taylor, hello.

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:21.200
<v Speaker 2>That I do a podcast with my friend called R

0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:24.559
<v Speaker 2>and R Experience and I am the one who edits

0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:27.839
<v Speaker 2>our show. Editing has been the most challenging aspect of podcasting,

0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:31.160
<v Speaker 2>from Wi Fi disruptions, Mike's not working, random glitches, and

0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:33.840
<v Speaker 2>all the talkative guests who overshare I.

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 4>Have to fix it all. I love it and I

0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.440
<v Speaker 4>hate it. It's definitely a complicated relationship.

0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:38.920
<v Speaker 3>Lol.

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.800
<v Speaker 2>What has been the hardest part of podcasting for you guys?

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:43.559
<v Speaker 3>That's our question.

0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:46.599
<v Speaker 2>And then she, of course she wants this is her

0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:51.440
<v Speaker 2>publicizing her podcast R and R Experience, but Raquel also

0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:54.760
<v Speaker 2>known as not Rachel, this is your last email to

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:58.039
<v Speaker 2>us SIS. Okay, so everybody check out her podcast. But

0:05:58.200 --> 0:06:01.400
<v Speaker 2>I think it None of this podcast for us, for

0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 2>me has been hard, right, So there is no hardest.

0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:04.560
<v Speaker 5>Part for me.

0:06:04.839 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we definitely are blessed because I've had people reach

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:10.640
<v Speaker 4>out and say, oh, can you give us advice on

0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:13.640
<v Speaker 4>starting a podcast all the time? You know, what do

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 4>you do? And I'm like, to be honest, we are

0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:21.840
<v Speaker 4>blessed to have already been on a public platform so

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 4>that our experience getting into podcasting was very seamless. We

0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:31.800
<v Speaker 4>already had an audience, We already have the support, you

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:35.680
<v Speaker 4>know from the producers and the editors and the you know,

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:37.600
<v Speaker 4>the people who upload, Like, I can't tell you how

0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:38.600
<v Speaker 4>to upload an episode.

0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:39.320
<v Speaker 5>I can't tell.

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 4>You you know what I mean, I can't tell you the thing, No,

0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:44.120
<v Speaker 4>I can't you know, all of that type of stuff.

0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:48.560
<v Speaker 4>So we've been really blessed. But I know for people

0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:51.360
<v Speaker 4>who do start a podcast on their own from scratch,

0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 4>it is a grind, and I think the hardest part

0:06:56.080 --> 0:07:03.040
<v Speaker 4>probably for those people are probably being consistent, yeah, while

0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:06.480
<v Speaker 4>not necessarily having an audience just yet. Yes, you know,

0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:11.880
<v Speaker 4>so you're you're recording these these episodes and of course

0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:15.440
<v Speaker 4>hopefully your friends and family and people listen, but you

0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:17.360
<v Speaker 4>don't know how to get other people to listen. So

0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:21.000
<v Speaker 4>I would think for people unlike us, the hardest part

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.119
<v Speaker 4>would be just building it and growing it and staying

0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 4>consistent and staying in the game without quitting.

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:27.680
<v Speaker 2>You guys, you got to definitely stay consistent. You don't

0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:30.440
<v Speaker 2>ever want to, like because there have been times when

0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 2>we're been extra extra busy and we could have like

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.400
<v Speaker 2>not had an episode that week, but we always try

0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:36.720
<v Speaker 2>to get it in because you never want to leave

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:39.720
<v Speaker 2>your listeners like with nothing. I'm not the person because

0:07:39.720 --> 0:07:42.240
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people have asked me to critique their podcast.

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:44.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh wow, I'm so not the person to do that.

0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because I have had to have given feedback that

0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 2>was like, stick with their data, don't do this.

0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:52.360
<v Speaker 3>You sound terrible.

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Your voice is monotone, Like nobody wants to listen to this,

0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 2>I've done that.

0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:57.160
<v Speaker 3>I've been that friend.

0:07:57.320 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, So like also also be realistic, Yeah, because

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:04.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't want you spinning your wheels or feeling like

0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:07.040
<v Speaker 2>this is great and everybody's telling you that it's not.

0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:09.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think a lot of people think

0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:11.840
<v Speaker 4>it's easy. I mean we you know, there's we always

0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:15.720
<v Speaker 4>hear about somebody getting into podcasting, whether they're whether it's

0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:17.920
<v Speaker 4>whether they're celebrities or even your friends, like, hey, we're

0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:19.080
<v Speaker 4>gonna start a podcasting thinking.

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:19.600
<v Speaker 3>Of Scherisa has one?

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 5>Now is do it? Well?

0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:22.160
<v Speaker 3>By the way, listen to it. I need to listen

0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:22.320
<v Speaker 3>to it.

0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:24.520
<v Speaker 4>I tried to listen to it and for whatever reason,

0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 4>my Apple podcasts wouldn't play it. But I'm gonna I'm

0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:28.200
<v Speaker 4>gonna try again.

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:30.840
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, so.

0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:34.760
<v Speaker 4>It's you can get into it, it's staying in it

0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:37.960
<v Speaker 4>that is really the challenge. Absolutely absolutely.

0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:39.440
<v Speaker 2>And try to get a deal, even though they're not

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:42.040
<v Speaker 2>really giving out podcast deals these days. Like, try to

0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:43.720
<v Speaker 2>get a deal because that means that you'll have like

0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:47.080
<v Speaker 2>potentially a producer and they'll take care of the back end.

0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:47.400
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:49.000
<v Speaker 4>But I think in order to get a deal, you

0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 4>either a have to be like us and already have

0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:55.560
<v Speaker 4>some sort of public platform, you know, or some sort

0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:59.079
<v Speaker 4>of be a public figure or be have a podcast

0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:02.200
<v Speaker 4>that you've started that you can show the you know,

0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:06.959
<v Speaker 4>the numbers for. Yeah, so that's easy. Yeah, so just

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:10.559
<v Speaker 4>don't start a podcast. I don't know, I mean podcasting

0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:13.240
<v Speaker 4>to me and Robin, right, if you do it, do

0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 4>it because you love it. Yes, but yeah, I know,

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:16.880
<v Speaker 4>I know there's a lot of people like, oh, we

0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:19.280
<v Speaker 4>should start a podcast, right, what should I do? And

0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:20.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, I don't want to like sell you a

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:24.679
<v Speaker 4>dream because my experience is different.

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:27.800
<v Speaker 3>Right, but I can say, like I have loved doing it.

0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:30.040
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Like you know, this is our fourth season.

0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:32.360
<v Speaker 2>There's there's never been a time where I'm like, ah,

0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:35.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm dreading it, right, or like I can't believe we

0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:36.880
<v Speaker 2>have to do reasons to be shaded tomorrow and be

0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:39.360
<v Speaker 2>like pissed about it because there's other jobs that I've

0:09:39.400 --> 0:09:43.760
<v Speaker 2>had that I've felt that way, right, Yeah, but like, yeah, no,

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:44.600
<v Speaker 2>this has been a joy.

0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Yeah, So I don't have I don't

0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:50.520
<v Speaker 4>have a negative either. But I think the most challenging

0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:52.359
<v Speaker 4>part was just the consistency.

0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:54.640
<v Speaker 2>I would say, Okay, so this says where do you

0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:57.959

0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:53.080
<v Speaker 4>goes to the strip club with his mom. Did we

0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:54.120

0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:05.959

0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:06.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:09.000

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:13.079
<v Speaker 4>six and yeah whatever, I think I could for sure casino,

0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:16.600
<v Speaker 4>strip club wherever, wherever we're gonna hang out, not the casino.

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 3>Y'all not taking my money, I know.

0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:23.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah that's true. But on a serious note, in ten years,

0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:29.000
<v Speaker 4>I definitely envision having more businesses, like more like I'm

0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:32.400
<v Speaker 4>opening the Glow Dirty Skincare studio, but I also want

0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 4>possibly open, So I'm looking at, like, you know, having

0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:41.520
<v Speaker 4>multiple different types of businesses that I can open at

0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:41.960
<v Speaker 4>one time.

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:43.880

0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:45.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, I like that.

0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:48.080

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:01.080
<v Speaker 4>On your podcast that aired the week of June third,

0:14:01.679 --> 0:14:04.679
<v Speaker 4>you both were pushing somewhat hard on ladies. You should

0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:07.600
<v Speaker 4>get botox and do the enhancements to your face. Robin

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:09.559
<v Speaker 4>went on to state how it's all about preserving your

0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:12.240
<v Speaker 4>youthful looks. While that is all well in Dandy, there

0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:15.360
<v Speaker 4>also is a population that feels that aging gracefully and

0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:19.320
<v Speaker 4>naturally is still a thing. Okay, life is about balance,

0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:21.560
<v Speaker 4>so sure, good skincare is great and fine. But to

0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:25.000
<v Speaker 4>encourage others to inject botox regularly in an attempt to

0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:27.720
<v Speaker 4>mask the fact that, yes, we are aging, it's something

0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:31.040
<v Speaker 4>I don't agree with. Many people see beauties like Vanessa Williams,

0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:33.680
<v Speaker 4>halle Berry and even at seventy eight years old Helen

0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 4>Mirren as still being extremely gorgeous, but having aged naturally

0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:40.400
<v Speaker 4>and not succumbing to social media pressure of following the crowd.

0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:43.160
<v Speaker 4>Trust me when I say many men still feel like

0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:48.480
<v Speaker 4>Paulina Portsakova. Pooritzakova. She's a supermodel who has had no surgery,

0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:52.280
<v Speaker 4>no fillers, no botox, could get it now today. So

0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:54.640
<v Speaker 4>I said, you both, who have the benefit of natural,

0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:58.200
<v Speaker 4>genetic based beauty, please support the natural aging process and

0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:01.360
<v Speaker 4>beauty and stop attempting to come heat with all of

0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:05.880
<v Speaker 4>the other housewives who have almost become unrecognizable, like someone

0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:12.280
<v Speaker 4>that rhymes with Baron Booker. I hate I had loved

0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:17.440
<v Speaker 4>at y'all, not Baron Booker.

0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:21.560
<v Speaker 5>Okay, I did love that.

0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:26.200
<v Speaker 4>Sorry, y'all, I'd hate for both of you to end

0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:30.160
<v Speaker 4>up looking like green eyed versions of the current Little Kim. Okay.

0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:35.000
<v Speaker 4>I don't remember ever pushing botox on people. Well, right, we.

0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:35.720
<v Speaker 3>Weren't pushing it.

0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.760
<v Speaker 4>I was, so remember we talked about we were talking

0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:39.680
<v Speaker 4>about the lip flip.

0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:41.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, then we.

0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:43.400
<v Speaker 4>Were talking about we started talking about botox, and I

0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:46.200
<v Speaker 4>was saying how I think both for me, botox is

0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:48.720
<v Speaker 4>not about changing the way I look, but about just

0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.520
<v Speaker 4>kind of preventing your wrinkles from getting deeper. Right, So

0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:55.920
<v Speaker 4>I'm not pushing it on anyone by any means, but

0:15:56.120 --> 0:15:59.200
<v Speaker 4>I personally just if I can prevent my wrinkles from

0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:01.760
<v Speaker 4>getting deeper from then That's what I'm going to do.

0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:06.440
<v Speaker 4>I don't want to change the way I look, right totally.

0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:09.280
<v Speaker 4>I'm not trying to turn my face into someone else's

0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:12.360
<v Speaker 4>face or I'm not trying to you know. So, so yes,

0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:15.080
<v Speaker 4>I I and I am a very natural person. I'm

0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:17.640
<v Speaker 4>sitting here with no makeup on like I you know,

0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:21.360
<v Speaker 4>so I'm I would definitely prefer to be more natural

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:26.200
<v Speaker 4>than not. However, I just you know, for me personally,

0:16:27.160 --> 0:16:29.800
<v Speaker 4>if I can stop my wrinkles from getting deeper, then

0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:31.560
<v Speaker 4>that's what I'm going to do. So so and I'm

0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:34.080
<v Speaker 4>not going to judge anyone that's not doing that. I'm

0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:36.200
<v Speaker 4>not going to you know, but if people and it

0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:40.520
<v Speaker 4>was more for people who think botox is about changing

0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:42.520
<v Speaker 4>the way you look, and it was just just letting

0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:44.840
<v Speaker 4>you all know it's not necessarily to change the way

0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 4>you look. It's more about just preventing your wrinkles from

0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:48.520
<v Speaker 4>getting deeper.

0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:51.800
<v Speaker 2>Right, That's but who did she say? It hasn't gotten

0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:53.359
<v Speaker 2>is a natural and hasn't gotten.

0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:58.480
<v Speaker 4>Said Halle Berry, Vanessa Williams, and Paulina Portzakova.

0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:01.280
<v Speaker 2>So she feels like they haven't because of the way

0:17:01.280 --> 0:17:02.840
<v Speaker 2>their face looks or because they've.

0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:05.879
<v Speaker 3>Said that, I don't know. Okay, So all of those.

0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:08.040
<v Speaker 4>People have gotten work done, right, period.

0:17:08.560 --> 0:17:12.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't want anyone to think that there's probably one

0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:15.080
<v Speaker 2>percent of people that are in front of a camera

0:17:15.119 --> 0:17:19.000
<v Speaker 2>that haven't gotten anything done to their face, body, whatever.

0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:22.320
<v Speaker 3>So shut up, bend over. We don't like you.

0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:26.040
<v Speaker 4>Okay, go away, bend Over, bend somewhere else.

0:17:28.119 --> 0:17:30.840
<v Speaker 2>And Bendover is definitely a woman, because no man is

0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:33.560
<v Speaker 2>even thinking about this like that. So yeah, bend Over,

0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:36.640
<v Speaker 2>goodbye the worst, You're the worst, bend.

0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:39.640
<v Speaker 3>Over, Bendover that wants the menu over. Okay, not in.

0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:40.080
<v Speaker 5>A good way.

0:17:40.280 --> 0:17:43.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, totally not in a good way. Asia sent us,

0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:45.040

<v Speaker 5>Is she coming to Philly? Asia? Asia? Asia?

0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:52.679
<v Speaker 4>I think it's Asia. It's just spelled as Hia, So

0:17:52.680 --> 0:17:53.920

<v Speaker 4>I can't remember how many of us, it's like probably

0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:51.360
<v Speaker 4>like ten of us. So we're going to Miami doing

0:19:51.400 --> 0:19:55.879
<v Speaker 4>the Miami thing. We had activities planned, you know, dinner, clubs,

0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:59.520
<v Speaker 4>yacht all this type of stuff, right, all these activities.

0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:02.320
<v Speaker 4>Everyone we're all on Gosh, when I was thirty, I

0:20:02.320 --> 0:20:03.600
<v Speaker 4>don't even know if it was like a group. I

0:20:03.600 --> 0:20:06.680
<v Speaker 4>don't know how we communicated, but emails whatever. Everyone got

0:20:06.680 --> 0:20:10.840
<v Speaker 4>the itinerary. Everyone knew where we're staying, what we're paying,

0:20:10.920 --> 0:20:14.159
<v Speaker 4>what we're doing, blah blah blah blah blah blah. So

0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:17.440
<v Speaker 4>my best friend from college at the time.

0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:20.879
<v Speaker 5>Was going.

0:20:21.280 --> 0:20:25.480
<v Speaker 4>But she was notorious for always wanting a hookup.

0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:27.000
<v Speaker 5>Oh god, I hate those people.

0:20:27.119 --> 0:20:30.960
<v Speaker 4>Yes, notorious, and she would do it wherever we went.

0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:34.240
<v Speaker 4>We would always, you know, go to NBA All Star

0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:38.399
<v Speaker 4>weekends and Londes of Morning weekend and Miami, like we

0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:41.320
<v Speaker 4>would just always be going places, and she always wanted

0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:43.879
<v Speaker 4>a hook up from for anything. She didn't want to

0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:46.600
<v Speaker 4>pay for anything. Now she has a great job, she

0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:48.600
<v Speaker 4>makes good money, she saves her money. It's good with

0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:51.640
<v Speaker 4>her money, like you know, it's she's not broke by

0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.520
<v Speaker 4>any means. And I had seen her do it over

0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:56.879
<v Speaker 4>and over and over to other people, but she had

0:20:56.920 --> 0:21:00.000
<v Speaker 4>never really done it to me because I was always

0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:00.840
<v Speaker 4>in a position like.

0:21:00.800 --> 0:21:02.160
<v Speaker 3>Wan was in the NBA.

0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:06.479
<v Speaker 4>You know, I didn't I would always treat everyone, you know,

0:21:06.560 --> 0:21:09.119
<v Speaker 4>So I never asked anyone for anything. But when it

0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:12.360
<v Speaker 4>came to this trip, people have to contribute. Like, if

0:21:12.359 --> 0:21:15.240
<v Speaker 4>you wanna, we're gonna go to the club. Everyone contribute

0:21:15.240 --> 0:21:16.920
<v Speaker 4>to go to the you know, to get the table.

0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:18.960
<v Speaker 4>If you want to, we're gonna go go on the yacht.

0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:20.920
<v Speaker 4>You gotta contribute this to go on the yacht. Yes,

0:21:21.000 --> 0:21:25.320
<v Speaker 4>blah blah blah. So when it came time for her

0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:30.200
<v Speaker 4>to contribute, she was like, Oh, no, I have a

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:33.080
<v Speaker 4>friend there and I'm just gonna you know, my friend

0:21:33.160 --> 0:21:35.800
<v Speaker 4>is gonna get me in what And then like yeah,

0:21:35.840 --> 0:21:38.239
<v Speaker 4>it was just every little thing. It was, Oh, I

<v Speaker 4>have someone someone down there, and she's gonna she knows

0:21:40.880 --> 0:21:42.680
<v Speaker 4>people at that club, and we're gonna do this. And

0:21:43.160 --> 0:21:45.960
<v Speaker 4>this friend here, she's going to do this. And I

0:21:46.119 --> 0:21:49.560
<v Speaker 4>was so angry with her because I'm like, you do

0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:51.879
<v Speaker 4>this to everyone, now you're doing it to me. I've

0:25:11.320 --> 0:25:13.600
<v Speaker 4>lots of change. Yeah, a lot of people, I know,

0:25:13.680 --> 0:25:15.119
<v Speaker 4>my thirties were.

<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:25:26.480 --> 0:25:29.080
<v Speaker 4>I had to kind of like you know, figure shit

0:25:29.119 --> 0:25:33.240
<v Speaker 4>out and work. I was working multiple jobs at a point,

0:25:33.760 --> 0:25:36.119
<v Speaker 4>began the house. I was a potomac in my thirties,

0:25:36.160 --> 0:25:39.520
<v Speaker 4>you know. So it was just like so much and

0:25:40.680 --> 0:25:44.840
<v Speaker 4>I just kept telling myself like it's okay, Like whatever

0:25:44.880 --> 0:25:47.760
<v Speaker 4>it was that I was going through, I knew I

0:25:47.760 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 4>would be okay. So I'm gonna say, like, your thirties

0:25:50.119 --> 0:25:53.080
<v Speaker 4>aren't always going to be beautiful, but just know that

0:25:53.359 --> 0:25:56.520
<v Speaker 4>what you go through during your thirties is building you

0:25:56.560 --> 0:26:01.240
<v Speaker 4>into becoming a much better person person, a more well

0:26:01.320 --> 0:26:04.640
<v Speaker 4>rounded person. It's just shaping your experiences.

0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:07.960
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I agree with all of that. Robin Dixon.

0:26:08.680 --> 0:26:12.880

0:26:13.000 --> 0:26:15.520
<v Speaker 2>and we don't read them. But I decided we're gonna

0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:17.520

<v Speaker 5>Are we really saying hi? To Linda.

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:29.000
<v Speaker 2>She says, it is shameful that you gloated over leaving

0:26:29.080 --> 0:26:34.520
<v Speaker 2>a poor broken deer, possibly withering in pain until he

0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:39.000
<v Speaker 2>or she he or she succumbed to its injuries.

0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:45.520

<v Speaker 2>People want to live around nature and then disregard, and

0:27:04.840 --> 0:27:09.640

<v Speaker 2>bad behavior. And you're bad English. I don't know about that.

<v Speaker 2>wrong in our nation.

0:27:20.520 --> 0:27:23.880
<v Speaker 4>Oh, everything wrong, everything wrong, she said, I really want

0:27:23.880 --> 0:27:25.080
