40
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: and I'm not an emotional person, but I'm a very

41
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: spiritual person.

42
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: Do you want me to fold you a tissue at

43
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 1: that point.

44
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 2: Please, buddy, it's like a paper plane that you make

45
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: back in grade school. Honey, that's not your tissues. Be

46
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: but all jokes aside. That has to be the highest

47
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 2: compliment anyone in this industry has ever given me. Because

48
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: now listen, listen, listen. People give me compliments. Don't get

49
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 2: me wrong, but in the way you articulated it, in

50
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: the sense of, you know, look, no one talks about

51
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: how I'm not gonna cry. No one talks about how

52
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: I did pay the way for black producers to do

53
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: reality television and the many, many, many messages I get

54
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 2: from black producers. You know, I talked about in this podcast, Candice,

55
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 2: how I was the first black man to executive produce

56
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 2: a Real Housewives franchise in general, and when I decided

57
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 2: to step down, I replaced myself with another black man.

58
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 2: I said, yes, I said, I would like to leave,

59
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 2: and I'm going to give the reins to another black

60
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 2: man and to see Eric Fuller as well, who is

61
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 2: my mentee. Eric Fuller is one of the executive producers

62
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: of Atlanta Housewives as well as Potomac. He's the Carlos

63
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 2: King of Potomac. Honey, yeah. And he's super smart, super creative,

64
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 2: he's so sweet. I'm overwhelmed with this pleasantry because you know, look,

65
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 2: when it comes to me, a lot of people like

66
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: can throw me shade Carlos, you're messy, you're this, your that,

67
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: and one thing about me. I don't give two fucks

68
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 2: when people say about me. So when someone can honor me,

69
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 2: I receive it. And I wanted to talk to you

70
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 2: because and I meant what I said because you. I

71
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 2: also said earlier, like yeah, people say you like me,

72
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 2: and I was like, you don't like me, Like you

73
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 2: don't understand I am a candy girl boy, like like,

74
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 2: I love you. I love what you represent. In my

75
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 2: expert opinion, you are one of the greatest things that

76
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 2: happened to Potomac.

77
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 3: Oh, y'all, you're gonna make me.

78
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 2: And let's be clear. Let's be clear. Every once in

79
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 2: a while, a reality star hops on an existing franchise. Yes,

80
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 2: and she or he in this case, she comes on

81
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 2: the show and changes the temperature of the show. I

82
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 2: said this publicly and I'll say it again. Kenya Moore

83
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 2: and Poor Show Williams came on The Real House spots

84
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 2: in Atlantic season five and the show hasn't been the

85
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 2: same since because they changed the motherfucking temperature of that show.

86
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, when you came on.

87
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 2: Candy Gal, they those girls did not know how to

88
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 2: take you, and they still don't.

89
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: They still mind blowing.

90
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 2: You change the temperature of the show so much so

91
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 2: you are slowly becoming one of the premier fass of

92
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 2: the franchise.

93
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 3: God bless you.

94
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 2: Do you do you feel that way?

95
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 3: No?

96
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 1: No, no, I honestly, this is the honest truth.

97
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 3: I think I'm getting fired every year.

98
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, you know, and it's and for me,

99
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: this opportunity, I saw it as an opportunity, something that

100
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: I wanted to use for a greater purpose within my

101
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: career and within my life.

102
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: And I sat down with my who was my boyfriend

103
00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 3: at the time. We weren't even.

104
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: Engage my man, and we said, if we're going to

105
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: do this, we're going to do this, and it's going

106
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: to have purpose, and we're going to use this platform

107
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: because the platform uses you child, so use this platform

108
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: to accomplish things. And I have an album out, I

109
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: have a deluxe album coming out, I have a tour

110
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: coming out, I have a scripted series coming out.

111
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 3: I have a hairline I have.

112
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: I'm starting a new business with my mom and my sister.

113
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: I have accomplished so much with the assistance of this

114
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: platform that I feel like that has been my portion.

115
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 3: However, you just I don't take.

116
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: For granted that it can all be gone tomorrow, and

117
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: the direction could shift for whatever reason tomorrow, and I

118
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: could be unceremoniously cast out for whatever reason. Because this

119
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: television is a fickle industry, especially unscripted, you just don't

120
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: ever know. And you know, Potomac Is is a top show,

121
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: and I recognize that, and I credit the ogs for

122
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: getting us.

123
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:17,679
Speaker 3: On the map.

124
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: But I don't sit up here and be like, yeah, girl,

125
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be back.

126
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 3: You just you never know.

127
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 2: I read somewhere that you prayed for this opportunity to

128
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 2: be a Potomac housewife, that you watched the show and

129
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 2: correct me if I'm wrong, But you said something along

130
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 2: the lines of this show is missing me.

131
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 3: That sounds like me. You know, I know, I know

132
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 3: what I did say.

133
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: I remember watching, Yes, I did pray about it, and

134
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: I remember watching when so I'm from Georgia originally, so

135
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: when Atlanta started, I was like, oh, oh.

136
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 3: Let me see what these girls is about to do.

137
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 1: Where are they gonna be at, what they're gonna be

138
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: talking about? I was, and then it was I watched

139
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: Desperate Housewives. So then when the Real Housewives of Orange

140
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: County came around, I was.

141
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 3: Like, Oh, what's this?

142
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: But I was kind of looking with one eye because

143
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: it's you know, white lady's talking about whatever, white peoples stuff.

144
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 2: That's fine.

145
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 1: But when Atlanta started, I was like, Oh, the girls

146
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: are coming.

147
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 3: To town, and I was excited.

148
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: And so then when Potomac started, it was like another

149
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: we're getting another black ensemble cast on this within these franchises.

150
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: Let me turn the TV on. And then because I

151
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: live in the DC, Maryland, Virginia area where the DMV

152
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 1: as we refer to it now, it was also a

153
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: you know, proximity to what's happening, So let me see

154
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: what these girls are doing. Who might I know? Where

155
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: are they going? What's the tea? I remember being in

156
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: the bed with Chris and the show was on, and

157
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: I was like, why am I not on this show?

158
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: Because these girls ain't doing nothing that I can't do

159
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 1: thirty seven thousand times better and with more style and grace. Okay,

160
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: So what are we talking about. I remember saying that

161
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: to Chris, and I said to Chris, I need to

162
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 1: be on the show because what are they doing?

163
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 3: And then I remember getting down on my knees at

164
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: the foot of my bed.

165
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: I had a little couch at the foot of my bed,

166
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: and asking, God, Lord, this is an opportunity for me

167
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: to accomplish all of the things that you have shown

168
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: me I'm supposed to have. Let me have it, and

169
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: I promise that I will do my best to glorify

170
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: you in all of it. And literally the following year,

171
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: I was getting an email from casting what God is like?

172
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: He said, Okay, God is really my mouth is too

173
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: powerful because I have manifested everything that I have, everything

174
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: that I have that you see and that you don't see.

175
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: I have spoken from my mouth, and it's I have

176
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: chills just talking about it because I didn't I didn't

177
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 1: call anyone. I didn't know anyone on the show. I

178
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: didn't know, I didn't know anything. They reached out to me.

179
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: And I believe with everything that I am that it

180
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: is from that brain.

181
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 2: Oh listen, My entire existence in this world, you know,

182
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 2: material things or or not, is because of the grace

183
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 2: of God. And I am a faring man and every

184
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 2: single blessing from this podcast to my late night show

185
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 2: to wherever is because of God. So I believe in

186
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 2: the power of prayer. So when you say they reached

187
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,719
Speaker 2: out to you and you but you had no connections

188
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 2: with the current cast at that time, how do they

189
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 2: find you?

190
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: So our casting director who has casted this show from

191
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: the very beginning, and they still do this. They are

192
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: consistently casting and you know this every season they are

193
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 1: looking for new blood, whether they bring someone in or

194
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: not friends of full time House, they're always looking. So

195
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,959
Speaker 1: in that search, Adrian, who is our casting director, he

196
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: scours the internets.

197
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 3: He scours the instagrams and the facebooks of the world.

198
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: And there were degrees of separation between myself and Ashley,

199
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: myself and Katie where our orbits maybe sort of could

200
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: have overlapped, And especially I think with Ashley because of

201
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: the pageant connection. I've never asked him exactly where he

202
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: looked to find me, but he tells me that he

203
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 1: found me through looking on Instagram, and that's yeah. And

204
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: then my business email was connected to my instagram, my

205
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 1: pageant consulting firm at that time was connected to my

206
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 1: Instagram and they reached out to me through that email.

207
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 2: So you prayed for it. A year later, this casting

208
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 2: director contacts you. You do the interview. I interviewed plenty

209
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: of women who've been cast for Housewives. Some get a

210
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 2: some don't. Monique talked about how she bombed her first interview.

211
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 2: Ashley Silva, who I know you know from Love and

212
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: Matters DC, talked about how she did four interviews. What

213
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: was your process, Like, did you kill at your first interview?

214
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 3: I did.

215
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: I could say that, and I know this because well,

216
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: I've talked to Adrian about it since and.

217
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 3: He says that I did a great job.

218
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: But I know I did a great job because he

219
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: was like falling over laughing at me.

220
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 3: And I was.

221
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: Admittedly, I will say, I am a journalist and I

222
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,839
Speaker 1: am a I'm a comms person, so research is my friend.

223
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 3: I did my research before my first interview, and I.

224
00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: Remember reading that Niini had a glass of wine her

225
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: first interview, and so I poured my I'm a drinker

226
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: of the Brown liquors, so I poured myself.

227
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 3: A glass of Jack.

228
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 1: Honey, which is one of my favorite at home beverages,

229
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: and I sipped on that and that it eased my

230
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: nerves a little bit and helped me to just kind

231
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: of just be uninhibited and just tell the truth about,

232
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: you know, everything that I was being asked.

233
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 3: And Adrian was cracking up laughing.

234
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: So yes, I can say that I soared in my interview,

235
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: but I will say this. I will say that before

236
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: I got there, I had a phone call with one

237
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: of his associates and.

238
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 3: I match energy.

239
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 2: So she was.

240
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 3: Giving like dry. It was like toast with no jam,

241
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 3: jelly or butter. It was just dry.

242
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: And so I was like, you know, just kind of

243
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: answering questions, and then it was like five minutes and

244
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: she was like, okay, well we'll be in touch. I

245
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: was like, okay, thank you. And I just felt like

246
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: that did not go well. So I emailed her and

247
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: I was like, this didn't really go the way that

248
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to go. So here are

249
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: some bullet points. Because she didn't ask me anything about me.

250
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: It was just it was very like Vanilla. I was like,

251
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: here are some bullet points just to kind of explain

252
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: who I am. My mama crazy, my man got all

253
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: these baby mamas and kids over here, and I broke

254
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: it down in a way that I knew would make

255
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: sense and would be was palatable, and then I had my.

256
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 3: Skype interview. So persistence.

257
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: This is so good because I tell people all the time,

258
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 2: no matter what field you want to get into, I

259
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 2: don't care if it's entertainment, you know, hospital, teaching, engineering, whatever,

260
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 2: you have to study those before you in order to

261
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 2: be great, and you have to study the greats. My

262
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 2: career is where it's at because I studied Oprah, I

263
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: studied Tyler Perry, I studied all these amazing people. So

264
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 2: the fact that you knew that Nini Lee's had a

265
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 2: glass of wine her first interview is everything to me.

266
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 2: And that's why you are a formidable player on Potomac.

267
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 2: So let's fast forward to your first season.

268
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 3: I'm gonna keep it real with you, okay, please do.

269
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 2: I obviously know the producers of Potomac, right, because the

270
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 2: production company produces a lantin Potomac and your first season,

271
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 2: I was like, they're hazing her, meaning you, They're hazing Candace,

272
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 2: and by they I mean the cast. And I also

273
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 2: felt like I will never forget this. It was the

274
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 2: scene where and FYI, I do love the entire cast.

275
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: But it was the scene where you guys were on

276
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 2: a bus going to a destination.

277
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 3: Oh god, and.

278
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 2: I felt like they so it was this scene where

279
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 2: they were like, no, you got to stand up for yourself.

280
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 2: You gotta read the girls. And I was like, why

281
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 2: are they prepping her to read the girls when I

282
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 2: feel like she has it? And when you read cha

283
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 2: cha for filth and called her jeriac chick granny and

284
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 2: you read Giselle's jacket and you were you were literally

285
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 2: like this sniper, maybe the DC sniper years ago has

286
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: nothing on that mouth.

287
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,959
Speaker 3: Oh my god.

288
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 2: Yes, honey, you were the Potomac sniper with the mouth

289
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 2: and you were targeting each girl and I was like, oh,

290
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 2: this bitch is everything. So your first season, did you

291
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,919
Speaker 2: feel like these girls were hazing you A and B?

292
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 2: Did you also feel what I was feeling, like, why

293
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: are y'all trying to prep this girl to be like, well,

294
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 2: let me teach you how to read the girls. This

295
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 2: is what you say when this happens.

296
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, I so there is a There is an

297
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: instance that I see all the time online where people

298
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: say Candace got to that first lunch on that trip

299
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: and was you know, reading at the table because the

300
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: girls had told her in a previous scene that she

301
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 1: needed to do that.

302
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 3: And I always furled my brow.

303
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: At that because Candace was always going to give what

304
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: needed to be given when the time came. I don't

305
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: I don't ever like to pounce before you know the

306
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 1: dough has risen, and that was coming regardless of what

307
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: advice I received, and I receive all all advice. Give

308
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: it to me, bring it here. I'm gonna I'm gonna

309
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: filter it and see what what I need to take

310
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: or what I need to leave. But I resent that

311
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 1: the general public seems to think that my trajectory on

312
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: the show was so because of what someone told me

313
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 1: to do.

314
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 3: That was that was all me.

315
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 1: Like this, My mouth did not start when we hit

316
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: play on Potomac. I was always on punishment for having

317
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: a smartass Mounts growing up. Okay, this is and if

318
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: you've met my mother you know why because the sharp

319
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: tongue comes from that.

320
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 3: So yeah, at that point, I was up.

321
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: I was fed up because don't sit on this bus,

322
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: on this bumpy bus and tell me that my mama

323
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: paid for my ring girl like ten, tend to your

324
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: business and the dwindling diamonds in your ring. Okay, like

325
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: leave mine alone or lack thereof, because half of y'all

326
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: ain't half no ring nor a man to gift you one.

327
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 3: So I like that. That just sent me over.

328
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 1: I was like what and then it was a because

329
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: I'm petite and I have like a a cheerleader energy,

330
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: as Giselle said in my first season, and I do

331
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 1: I own that. That's I'm a bubbly personality. I think

332
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 1: these girls thought that they could run me over. But

333
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: as I always say, you bring grenades to the party,

334
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 1: I have rocket.

335
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 2: Launchers and you see what I call her sniper chow.

336
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 2: To interrupt this juicy conversation, but stay tuned for more

337
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 2: of my conversation with Candace right after these quick ads.

338
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 2: This is reality with the King, and I'm Carlos King.

339
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:54,959
Speaker 2: Let's get back into my conversation with Candace. When you

340
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 2: wrapped her first season, did you think you would come

341
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 2: back for a second season? No, that obviously you're The

342
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 2: wedding was the opening of the following season. But did

343
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 2: you feel like, Okay, I did a great job or

344
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: did you feel like, oh, bitch, I may not come back,

345
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 2: and what the fuck I didn't.

346
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: Know, and I at that point I wasn't thinking about it.

347
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,479
Speaker 1: I think I was just kind of going with the

348
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: flow and being in the moment, so I didn't allow

349
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:29,239
Speaker 1: myself to think beyond, Okay, we're shooting the show, and

350
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 1: now we're shooting the reunion, and now the.

351
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 3: Reunion is over.

352
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: I don't think I thought about at that point whether

353
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: or not I was coming back.

354
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 3: I do feel like, because I.

355
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: Was getting married and I knew kind of how the

356
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 1: formula worked, if you have, you know, a burgeoning storyline,

357
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna want to carry that over into the following season.

358
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 1: I think we probably did talk about that, and I

359
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: think that there were conversations between myself and production about

360
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: what my wedding would look like if they were to

361
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 1: film it. So I kind of felt like I would

362
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: come back, but I didn't really question it at that time.

363
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: But I found out later that one of our s

364
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: vps said that they were not sure about me until

365
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: the read.

366
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 3: When I guess my what did I say?

367
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 2: Uh?

368
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 3: It was Lauren Lauren Esklin. She was like, she made

369
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 3: reference to me.

370
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 1: Calling Ashley a house triala because because that they weren't

371
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 1: they I guess they were not used to me being

372
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: that quick, because there wasn't I didn't know she was

373
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: going to say that rehearsed line about me being a

374
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: house daughter. I didn't know that was coming. And you

375
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: know you're a house Tralla. That just it just came

376
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:53,719
Speaker 1: from from my stern up.

377
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 2: It just came out, not rehearse read. Okay, I caught that. No,

378
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 2: it's funny because I did not think you were going

379
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 2: to have a second season. And this is coming from me.

380
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you why. I Lord Jesus, I know

381
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get in trouble for this, but this podcast

382
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 2: is about me keeping it all the way real reality,

383
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 2: this reality and the first per letters is r E

384
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 2: A L. Yeah, booboo is real. I did not think

385
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 2: you were coming back because I didn't think you were

386
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 2: set up for success. I did not think that. And

387
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 2: you are the reason why I tell people you should

388
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 2: always give a housewife a second season, because you never know.

389
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 2: Claudia Jordan will always go down to history as the

390
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 2: most underrated housewife because she deserves the second season.

391
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

392
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 2: Yes, So your second season on the show really showed

393
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 2: why you are a formidable player. So much so you

394
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 2: literally get into with everybody, and you hold your own

395
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 2: and to be a petite woman what I love about you.

396
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,439
Speaker 2: And I know you read upon Meini Leagues drinking wine

397
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 2: and that's what made you want to like, Okay, prepare

398
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 2: for this interview you have with the casting director. You

399
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 2: are on your way to becoming an icon like Kenya Moore.

400
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 2: And hear me out, hear me out. I receive pageant background, beautiful,

401
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 2: chocolate girl, a wordsmith, intelligent and me working with Kenya,

402
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 2: I always knew that the issues that Kenya had with

403
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 2: some of the women. I'm not gonna name names, but

404
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 2: some of them was Kenya, you're not only beautiful, but bitch,

405
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 2: you're smart and you know how to read. And when

406
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 2: you read. When Kenya Moore season seven, at this group

407
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 2: event where they had the doctor there, the therapist his

408
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,199
Speaker 2: name is slip in my brain and she said, you

409
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 2: are a revisionist historian me and the producer said, what

410
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 2: the what fuck does that mean? And I literally google

411
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 2: that and I said, this bitch is so smart, and

412
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 2: all the other housewives was like dumbfounded, like wait, is

413
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,719
Speaker 2: is that a read? You remind me so much of Kenya?

414
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 2: And one thing that you are vocal about on Twitter.

415
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 2: Is you feel that because you and Kenya are dark

416
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 2: skinned women. Yes, people love to villainize the two of you.

417
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 2: When y'all light skin counterparts can say the same thing,

418
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 2: worse or worse, they don't get the same treatment. And

419
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 2: you really do say that a lot on Twitter. Can

420
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 2: you talk to me about that, please.

421
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 3: Yes.

422
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:49,959
Speaker 1: I have not experienced colorism in the way that I

423
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: have on this platform anywhere else in my life.

424
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 3: And I grew up in predominantly white spaces. I have

425
00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 3: been the.

426
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 1: Token black girl in a lot of rooms. And even

427
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: in those spaces, you know, you get the uh oh,

428
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: you're pretty to be a black girl, you get that.

429
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:13,959
Speaker 1: But the colorism is nuanced, and it's often felt within

430
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: your own cohort, within your own community. And I guess

431
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: because I didn't have much of a community that looked

432
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 1: like me growing up, that wasn't something that I was

433
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 1: ever aware of or really made privy to until later

434
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: in life. And then even then, it still was just

435
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: never on my radar until this show. And you know,

436
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: I am doing my job and cussing and fussing and

437
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 1: carrying on in a way that is similar to I'll

438
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: use Ashley as an example, because we're similar in age.

439
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: They kind of put she brought me onto the show

440
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: expecting I think that we would, you know, have have

441
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 1: a report. And you know, Ashley is one who can

442
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 1: she can get bucks, she can roll her neck, she

443
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 1: her eyes can pop out of her head. She she'll

444
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: you know, she gives you what needs to be given

445
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 1: in the moment. And I started to notice, knowing that

446
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 1: Ashley had given us those moments, those aggressive moments, that

447
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: my time in giving those same moments were harped on

448
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: much more intensely. And I really had to take a

449
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: step back and say, what is it? Because at first

450
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: you just say what, like you're just you're just kind

451
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: of dumbfounded, but you're saying that I'm aggressive. But we

452
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: just watched her like get in her somebody's face and

453
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 1: do the finger and roll her neck and do all that.

454
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 1: So it just dumbfounded me at first, but it was

455
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:58,159
Speaker 1: It took me having conversations with my real smart friends,

456
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: my off TV friends, to realize is what I was

457
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 1: experiencing was colorism, and it really there was a conversation

458
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: that we had, I believe, on a reunion where we

459
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: were asked by Andy, I think if we think the

460
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: colorism exists on the show, and most of the women

461
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: said no, And I will say that I don't know

462
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:27,880
Speaker 1: that the cast is necessarily engaging in it. Maybe there

463
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 1: is some dog whistling, but it certainly comes from the audience,

464
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: and I think that the beneficiaries of colorism have a

465
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,479
Speaker 1: responsibility to call that out. And I don't see that

466
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: happening myself. Wendy, you know we can't. We can scream

467
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: it all day, you know, it's it's it literally.

468
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 3: Is attached to racism.

469
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: The oppressed cannot we can't speak out. We can, but

470
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 1: the liberation and the change and the overturning comes when

471
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: the people that have the power are speaking out against it.

472
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: And to deny that colorism exists is doing a disservice

473
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: to all of us.

474
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 2: No, and listen. One of the examples that I'll give

475
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 2: too is, you know one thing that Ashley and you

476
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 2: do is y'all can read for filth. And I am

477
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 2: a fan of the both of y'alls right, because I

478
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 2: think you guys are just fantastic reality stars and just

479
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 2: know how to like give great scenes. So, for example,

480
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 2: you called Ashley wide body and got read for that. Meanwhile,

481
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 2: Ashley may fun of Sherie saggy titties but did not

482
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 2: get much of a scorn reading for that. I know

483
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 2: for a fact that colorism exists in the scope of

484
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 2: reality television, in the scope of the world, in the

485
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 2: scope of the music industry. It is what it is,

486
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 2: and it doesn't take me, not being a black woman,

487
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 2: to not see it. I see it, see it based

488
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 2: on Twitter, and I think that's the reason why a

489
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 2: lot of people stay off of Twitter who are on

490
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 2: reality TV, because it can definitely affect your mental help,

491
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 2: knowing that people are really not equal in their disdain

492
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 2: for a person, place, or thing. And one of the

493
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 2: things that I know you dealt with with your mental

494
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 2: health was the unfortunate altercation that you and Monique had

495
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 2: on the show. And as a black man in this business,

496
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 2: and I shared this with Monique as well, I was

497
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 2: devastated by that only because look, I know that unfortunately

498
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 2: things just happen like these things happen, and that's just

499
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 2: the way of life. We saw Will Smith slap Chris

500
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:47,719
Speaker 2: Rock on America's Favorite award stage and shit happens. Well,

501
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 2: what I thought was funny was Will Packer, who's a

502
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 2: friend of mine and who I love. He produced that

503
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 2: Oscar special. No one blamed Will Packer, and they shouldn't

504
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 2: have because he had nothing to do with it. But

505
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 2: when black people are having a bad moment on reality TV,

506
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 2: they blame Carlos King, or they blame the other producers.

507
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 2: And one of the things that I loved about your

508
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 2: conversation that you had on camera and off camera was

509
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 2: the fact that everybody saw the error in their ways right,

510
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 2: and I thought it was so special to at least

511
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 2: have that honest conversation. How were you able to get

512
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 2: past that? Because I know that for some people it

513
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 2: would have been hard to return to the show.

514
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: I don't know that I am past it because of

515
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: the backlash that I received due to the acrobatics that

516
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: were orchestrated by some There are still people who I mean,

517
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: the obviously are strong opinions about that season, But to

518
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: quote the ancient African proverb, revisionist history is a motherfucker.

519
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 3: It's so easy to sit.

520
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: Back and watch and decide that you know what happened

521
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 1: in any space.

522
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 3: And that's what reality television is for.

523
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: It's an escape, and that's what I understand that my

524
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 1: role is in this space for a lot of our viewers.

525
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: But when the game is not played by the rules,

526
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: and people who can't control their emotions want to get

527
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: out of control and change the way the game is played,

528
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: it becomes less about entertainment and more about this is

529
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 1: my real life.

530
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 3: And I.

531
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: Still have a lot of thoughts and feelings about the

532
00:32:55,160 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: revisionist history. I obviously don't let it, you know, overtake me,

533
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: and I think that God has prepared the most immaculate

534
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: table for me.

535
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 3: Before all of my enemies. Therefore, I have no need

536
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 3: to harp on whatever.

537
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: However, it's not something that you just that just goes away.

538
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: One of our SVPs who's a dear friend of mine,

539
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: her name is Lorraine. She said in Not All Diamonds

540
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 1: and Rose that I forget how she said it, but

541
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: she she I talked to her at length for hours

542
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 1: upon hours during that whole season five, and she she

543
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: sort of accurately emoded for me when she said something

544
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: to the effect of I think Candice was blindsided and

545
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:57,719
Speaker 1: she was really hurt by the chain of events because

546
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: it's not something that she ever expected to happen, and

547
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: she really thought that she was dealing with someone who

548
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: she thought was her friend, and for her to put

549
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 1: that into words that it was just shock. Not so

550
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: and I talk about this on Girl's Trip too. Not

551
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: so much the physical part that wasn't the shock. The

552
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:27,399
Speaker 1: shock was the spinning and the lying and the revisionist

553
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 1: history that still reverberates amongst people who are just committed

554
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,479
Speaker 1: to misunderstanding me versus looking at facts and actually going

555
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: back and reviewing the edited season.

556
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's an evolution that is still evolving.

557
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 2: Knowing that this happened a couple of years ago and

558
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 2: Monique is no longer on the show. Is there a

559
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 2: world knowing that you're spiritual and like me, you're God

560
00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 2: fearing and we love the Bible God talks about forgiveness.

561
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 2: Is there a world where you're able to forgive Monique

562
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 2: and or be friends with her again.

563
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:14,280
Speaker 1: I think I have forgiven her for me, because that's

564
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 1: my salvation, that's at stake.

565
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 3: I have forgiven her for me. I think it's.

566
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: Impossible to move into a space of friendship with a

567
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: human being who continues to live in delusion and in

568
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: their version, in their revisionist history. This is someone who

569
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 1: has still goes into public spaces and calls me a child,

570
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: when the child is the person who can't just let

571
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: it be, give it a no comment or you know,

572
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 1: when these conversations come up, when these questions come up,

573
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: it's about me. I'm not interested in insulting or creating

574
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:05,840
Speaker 1: un necessary contention with a non factor in my life.

575
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: And again, there's too much increase in my life for

576
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 1: me to go to that negative space. So you know,

577
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: the short answer is no, it just you. You can't.

578
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: You can't rekindle something with someone who who isn't there.

579
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: And I also just it's that's just not my portion.

580
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 1: I'm just I don't need I don't need friends like that.

581
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 2: No, that's understandable. And you know, look, one thing we're

582
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 2: here to celebrate is the new season of Potomac. I

583
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 2: have set on record, and people like to throw me

584
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 2: shade for saying this because they think in order for

585
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 2: me to compliment somebody, I have to diss them in

586
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 2: the same sentence. Like a lot of people, I'm just

587
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 2: gonna say it. A lot of people are surprised that

588
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 2: I'm a huge Candice fan because I'm a Monique fan,

589
00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 2: and Monique's on my show. You know what I mean?

590
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 2: Like I always tell people like, I am a black

591
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 2: man in this space, and I truly love everybody, and

592
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 2: people's beefs are not my beef. I'm not a female rapper.

593
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get a do you know what I mean? Like,

594
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna I'm not picking size in terms of

595
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 2: what people go through. Like, I love everybody, I love you.

596
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 2: I love Potomac. Potomac right Now is my favorite franchise.

597
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 2: Potomac right Now is the number one most entertaining Housewives

598
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 2: franchise in the world, and it has been for a

599
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:39,760
Speaker 2: couple of years. I love this show so much. The

600
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 2: trailer came out and it's explosive and I'm looking forward

601
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 2: to it winning debut Sunday, October ninth, at eight o'clock

602
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 2: seven Central. In the trailer, we saw some issues going

603
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 2: on between Chris Bassett and Giselle Green Eye Bandit Bryant,

604
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:03,919
Speaker 2: where there's these accusations, if you will, that Chris has

605
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 2: been flirting with Gazelle. So I want to ask you,

606
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,800
Speaker 2: this is your husband Chris attracted to Gazel.

607
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 1: I you would have to ask him back, but I

608
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 1: mean I would say no, I know we did. We

609
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: had an event at Karen's house two years ago. It

610
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 1: was a couple's like date day, and one of the

611
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: questions was if.

612
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 3: You if you had to.

613
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: If you had to sleep with somebody else in this

614
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: group or something, if you were if you had to

615
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: date someone else in this group, something like that, who

616
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: would it be? And everyone answered except for Eddie because

617
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: Wendy was given him the eyes period, right, And you know,

618
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 1: for me, Chris said Gazelle. And I also guessed Gazelle

619
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: only because like the Gazelle is very flirty with Chris,

620
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 1: and Chris flirts back with Gazelle. And this happens in

621
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: front of me, and it has never given me pause

622
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 1: or made me feel threatened in any kind of way

623
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 1: because Chris does not want Gizelle's fifty year old puss.

624
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: He has no why would he want that when he

625
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: has this so and it also just kind of gave me, Okay,

626
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: this is excess flirtatious energy coming from a woman who

627
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 1: doesn't have that at home.

628
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 3: This is just something that she does.

629
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: Gazelle has a history and there's a reputation there of

630
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 1: her being fast in her past and her being loose

631
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: in her past.

632
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 3: This is these are facts. I'm not making this up.

633
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 3: So you know, I see her flirting with Chris and

634
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:57,800
Speaker 3: is like, oh, pole than just poth thing, that's cute.

635
00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 3: It never bothered me.

636
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 2: You said old thing, a poke thing po.

637
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:09,280
Speaker 3: Po th that's it's it's just you. You can't.

638
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 1: You can't ask for for more from from someone who

639
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 1: can only give you less than half like I can't.

640
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: It never bothered me. So he may be she's a

641
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: beautiful woman I'm attracted to.

642
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,720
Speaker 3: She's a beautiful attracted.

643
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 2: Yes, I agree.

644
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 3: Listen, she's beautiful.

645
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: But a shell is a shell, okay, and shells often

646
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: have funky insides, and that's one.

647
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:43,959
Speaker 2: Not fuck master flex. Okay, look what thing I can't

648
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 2: with you? What's interesting, though, is after you wrapped Potomac,

649
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 2: you then went on Ultimate Girls Trip, y'all went to Thailand,

650
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,799
Speaker 2: and based on the cast, it seemed like it was

651
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 2: buddies from e franchise. Salt Lake City had Heather and Whitney,

652
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:13,719
Speaker 2: Miami had Marathol on Instagram okay, and then it had

653
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 2: Gazelle and Candice and we were all confused by that.

654
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,879
Speaker 2: So how was it on Ultimus Girls Trip? Because the

655
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:26,640
Speaker 2: second installment was amazing. Derenda's house. It was it was

656
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,919
Speaker 2: funny and dramatic, and it was everything. Did y'all live

657
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 2: up to the hype based on the fact that you

658
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 2: had to be with Jazelle for a couple, you know,

659
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:36,919
Speaker 2: for two weeks?

660
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:37,879
Speaker 3: I think yes.

661
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: Ten days of just unadulterated hell is what ensued in Thailand.

662
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: I was ready to go. These girls, just the the

663
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:56,240
Speaker 1: girls as a whole wore me out. I was worn

664
00:41:56,480 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 1: thin just talking to no I'm I don't talk when

665
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 1: when I don't need to talk, like when it's if

666
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 1: I don't have anything to say that it's of substance.

667
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,840
Speaker 1: I'm just going to sit back and clutch my pearls

668
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 1: and observe these girls. Some of them they just like

669
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,279
Speaker 1: it was just I don't know if it was like

670
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 1: a we fighting for a camera time or you know,

671
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 1: this is an accelerated version of housewives. We have ten

672
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 1: days to get what we need, so we're just we're

673
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,359
Speaker 1: going hard in the paint. I don't know, but there

674
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: was so much talking that I just don't know that

675
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: needed to happen. I was surprised that Giselle and I

676
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 1: were chosen.

677
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 3: I was surprised that.

678
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: I always thought that when it was Potomac's turn to

679
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 1: do girl Strip, it would be Gizelle and Karen because

680
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 1: that's who the network pushes as the faces of the

681
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: of the show.

682
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:55,240
Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's the that's that's what they pushed.

683
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 1: So I was fully expecting Gazelle and Karen. So it

684
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 1: was me and I was like, well, sure, I will

685
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 1: pack my bags. I'm there, Gizelle and I I'll just

686
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:10,800
Speaker 1: say it did not end well.

687
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 3: It did not end well.

688
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: And yeah and yeah, didn't end well.

689
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 2: M hm, Okay, Well, how did it begin with Porsche?

690
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 2: Because you and Porsche have publicly said things about each

691
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 2: other that a lot of people took its shade. Yes,

692
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 2: when they found out Porsche, Williams and Candace was in

693
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 2: the same room, the Twitter girls went crazy. Yeah, how

694
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 2: did it go with Porsche?

695
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: You be surprised? And that in good ways and bad ways.

696
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 1: It was a very interesting time with Porsche that I

697
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 1: don't want to give it anything away, but it was.

698
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: It was an interesting time with with Porscha. She is

699
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 1: something else, but so am I.

700
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,399
Speaker 2: Oh, we know you are sister, because I was gonna

701
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:13,720
Speaker 2: say that. That goes my question Porsche is a shady

702
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,520
Speaker 2: queen and we love Porsche. You are shady queen. Answered

703
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,839
Speaker 2: this for me. Oh lord, who did you get into

704
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,280
Speaker 2: it the most on girls trip besides Giselle?

705
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 4: Oh I really, I was really chilling on this trip

706
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 4: because these white girls were hollering the whole trip, So

707
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 4: I was just I was kind of like it, taking

708
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 4: my my leizipam and trying.

709
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 3: To just stay home.

710
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: But I okay, if I had to say, who did

711
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 1: I fuss with more than Gizelle, it was Okay, it

712
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,840
Speaker 1: wasn't the snow bunnies, it wasn't It wasn't.

713
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 3: Probably Portia.

714
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, we if I had to say more than Jesel,

715
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: Giselle was.

716
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 3: The most. But yes, probably if I had to say,

717
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 3: but that.

718
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:17,719
Speaker 1: But again, I say it was an interesting time because.

719
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 3: It ebbed and flowed.

720
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 1: There was a lot that went on like it was

721
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: ten days, but it felt like ten months. There was

722
00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: a lot of evolution and stopping and going and fussing

723
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 1: and carrying on that took place. So yes, yeah, I'm

724
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 1: trying to make sure I'm not missing anyone.

725
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 2: I don't think you are, because that I think that's

726
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 2: I don't see you get into with the other girls

727
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 2: like that, what about Leah?

728
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: That Leah is my bitch, That is my girl. That's Leah.

729
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: So Leah and the snow bunnies they were my favorite, Like.

730
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 2: I can't take snow bunnies.

731
00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 3: That's what I call.

732
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,480
Speaker 1: And then we played a really fun game where everybody

733
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: got like I don't want to give away too much,

734
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 1: but we played a really fun game where I really

735
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 1: got to express my thoughts on everybody and some people

736
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 1: were happy and some were not, and I was tickled.

737
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 3: That's all I will say about that.

738
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:23,879
Speaker 2: Love it, Okay, So before I let you go talk

739
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,400
Speaker 2: to my raindrops about what they can't expect from this

740
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 2: season of Potomac and Baby, I mean one thing about me,

741
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 2: and I don't care how far getting in life in

742
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 2: my career, I will always be a fan because you

743
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,440
Speaker 2: always want to keep that inno sense about you. I

744
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 2: am a giddy girl when it comes to Potomac. I

745
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,360
Speaker 2: watch it and I laughed my ass off, and I

746
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:53,400
Speaker 2: literally love all of you, ladies. I got a chance

747
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 2: to meet some of the girls when I was in

748
00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 2: town at this house and Kandace wasn't there, and Wendy

749
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 2: wasn't there, and I was mad like, I low key

750
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 2: also want to see Kansas and Wendy the Fox, but

751
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,879
Speaker 2: whenever I digress, we'll see each other pace of pays

752
00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 2: so soon. Yes, yes, but talk to us about what

753
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 2: we can expect from my favorite Housewise franchise.

754
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: This season, for a lot of reasons, I think is

755
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 1: maybe one of our best. And I know it's easy

756
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 1: to say that, but this is probably one of our

757
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: best seasons because everyone gave something. And I also love

758
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 1: when a season gets to the end and nothing.

759
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 3: Has been spilled.

760
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: Atlanta is kind of has gotten really bad about that,

761
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,319
Speaker 1: like stuff leaking, and you're finding out storylines and things

762
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 1: that are happening amongst the group before the season airs,

763
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 1: and it just ruins the experience for the viewers.

764
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 3: Not a whole lot.

765
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: Got out about this, you know, the little altercation between

766
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,480
Speaker 1: me and Wendy kind of got out. Side note, I

767
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 1: was from shooting my scripted series, so I got to

768
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 1: the trip late. I'm mid air and I'm getting texts

769
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: from my manager telling me, were you in a fight?

770
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 1: And I'm like what these people will sat.

771
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:14,759
Speaker 3: Up here on Beyonce's Internet and trying to.

772
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 1: Say that I got into the fight with Mia, that

773
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 1: it was me and I'm literally in the air, so

774
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:22,839
Speaker 1: that that got out.

775
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 3: But you don't know what happened.

776
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 1: Let me, let me make it clear, you don't know

777
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 1: what happened even with what you see in the trailer.

778
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:30,879
Speaker 3: You need to see the whole thing.

779
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 1: But we I think everyone gave something personal within the group.

780
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 3: The dynamics shift so quickly.

781
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 1: This is I think this is the fastest we have

782
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 1: moved in this group, just like the ebbs and flows

783
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 1: within the couples and the throttles, and you know, the

784
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 1: six seven of us are our friend of the show,

785
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: Jacqueline that then came in there and.

786
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,279
Speaker 3: Hould our wigs off. She was doing three much.

787
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,840
Speaker 2: It was so intense, not too much, but three much,

788
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:06,720
Speaker 2: three much.

789
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:07,720
Speaker 3: It was so intense.

790
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 1: So it's you are going to be entertained because you're

791
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 1: not going.

792
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:13,359
Speaker 3: To be able to keep up.

793
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 1: You you have to really stay on your toes and

794
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 1: take notes for season seven. Not to shade other franchises,

795
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 1: but sometimes things can drag on and carry on and

796
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:28,360
Speaker 1: you just never hear the end of the things. Honey.

797
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 1: Season seven, it's like boom boom, boom boom, what's next.

798
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: We're friends now, We're not we're cool. Now we're not,

799
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 1: we're you know, cussing, and now we're in the bed together.

800
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 1: It's like it's it is so fast paced even I

801
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:44,839
Speaker 1: can keep up.

802
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:46,280
Speaker 3: And I was in the mess.

803
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 2: No, I loved I love it. I love it. And

804
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 2: I have to ask this. Though you ladies were the

805
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 2: dark horse, You ladies, to me, were the step children

806
00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:01,920
Speaker 2: of the franchise. Do you, ladies, And I'm being serious

807
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 2: when I ask you this question because I want reality

808
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 2: stars too. Are fans of this podcast to hear this?

809
00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 2: Please hear this. When I watch Potomac, I feel like

810
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 2: all of you ladies said we need to be the

811
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:19,640
Speaker 2: best show possible, and we're going to work together to

812
00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:22,919
Speaker 2: be number one. Not scripting stuff or having fake beef,

813
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 2: but like we're all going to put in the work.

814
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 2: The kids like to call it clocked in. Like I

815
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,399
Speaker 2: feel like you ladies had a meeting and said we

816
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 2: need to clock in and be number one because every

817
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:38,760
Speaker 2: season is so damn good.

818
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:39,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

819
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:44,440
Speaker 2: Did you guys have this camaraderie and this sort of

820
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:48,320
Speaker 2: pact that we are going to give everything to this

821
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 2: show to become number one?

822
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:54,279
Speaker 3: I think it's unspoken. I have never been a part of.

823
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:58,720
Speaker 1: A group, a full group meeting where we had those conversations,

824
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,520
Speaker 1: but I've had them in twos and threes with some

825
00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:07,240
Speaker 1: of the girls just about you know, how we really

826
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: care and we are very aware and privy.

827
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:15,840
Speaker 3: Of what our role is and how.

828
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 1: We sort of carry the torch for black women in

829
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: this space, and we all take that very seriously. And

830
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: that's one of the things that I respect about my

831
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 1: cast so much is that we protect our brands, we

832
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 1: protect the way that we are portrayed, and we take

833
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 1: that very seriously, you know, give or take a few

834
00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,879
Speaker 1: that may not be here anymore. So it's I think

835
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: we all are intelligent enough to know when it's time

836
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 1: to clock in and when maybe we need to sit

837
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 1: back and allow, you know, others to step in. That's

838
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 1: that was one difference between my cast and Girl Strip.

839
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,439
Speaker 3: I'm used to being in a group where we allow.

840
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 1: Each other to speak because we're thinking about the audio

841
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 1: guy and how they're gonna have to turn this one

842
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 1: down so.

843
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:12,080
Speaker 3: That you can hear this one talk.

844
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:16,680
Speaker 1: So we are very aware of Okay, let's let you know,

845
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 1: Robin have this.

846
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:21,280
Speaker 3: Moment to explain what she's saying, and then.

847
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,279
Speaker 1: Karen will jump in and cuss her into smithereens She's

848
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 1: gonna let Robin say what she has to say, because

849
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 1: you all need to understand what we're saying, to follow

850
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: our stories and to care about you know, what we're

851
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: bringing you and girls today was just yelling and screaming.

852
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:41,760
Speaker 1: It was my wig slit off and I had brains,

853
00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 1: So you know, I just I think that we are

854
00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:53,920
Speaker 1: all incredibly intelligent, savvy, smart women and we know how

855
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 1: to maneuver.

856
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 3: And it's there are a lot of.

857
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:02,120
Speaker 1: Just unspoken things that just fall all into place in

858
00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:06,359
Speaker 1: the heat of moments and it just works. We are

859
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:11,799
Speaker 1: because we all have leadership spirit like we all we

860
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,719
Speaker 1: all have that leadership capacity, so everybody knows how to

861
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:19,560
Speaker 1: police themselves and I think that contributes heavily to our success.

862
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 3: And I always give flowers to the ogs.

863
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 1: This I want to say, this is Is this not

864
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 1: the most ogs at this point in a s Yeah,

865
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:30,400
Speaker 1: that that's that's not a small feat.

866
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 2: The Real Housewives hopotomac has the is making history in

867
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:41,879
Speaker 2: terms of having the most OG's return for a consecutive

868
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:46,759
Speaker 2: seventh season, which is Giselle, Robin, Ashley, and Karen. That

869
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,719
Speaker 2: has never been done in the history of the franchise.

870
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:52,759
Speaker 2: And that's why you guys are great, and that's no

871
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:54,879
Speaker 2: shame to do the Housewives franchise. We love them all.

872
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 2: And one thing I love about you particularly you always

873
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 2: give a land to their flowers and all day, every ing.

874
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I will continue to say it because I

875
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:08,359
Speaker 1: same lo the comparisons. We are not the same, and

876
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:12,520
Speaker 1: that's a beautiful thing, and we would not be if

877
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 1: it were not for the.

878
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 3: Path that they laid. The tweet.

879
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,799
Speaker 1: I see it all the time. Atlanta walp So Potomac

880
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,200
Speaker 1: could run. I will say it until I have no breath.

881
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:26,239
Speaker 1: I was a studier and a watcher and someone who

882
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:33,000
Speaker 1: just respected immensely what this ensemble cast of powerful, entertaining

883
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:36,479
Speaker 1: as hell black women were able to do for reality TV.

884
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:39,880
Speaker 1: Bravo would not be where Bravo is without Atlanta.

885
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 2: Carlos King would not be the king of reality television

886
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 2: with Atlanta. And I will always give a Lanta to

887
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:47,200
Speaker 2: their flowers. And look, I know a lot of people

888
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:49,839
Speaker 2: are just shaded Atlanta about not being at its best,

889
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,800
Speaker 2: and listen, I'm very honest about my feelings about the

890
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 2: way the show has been the past couple of seasons,

891
00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 2: but make no mistake, it will always be the greatest

892
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 2: reality show of all time. And because of Atlanta Housewives,

893
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 2: all of us get to eat at the table in

894
00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:09,880
Speaker 2: which they prepared. So let's make that very clear. So

Speaker 2: more about Candace, because I don't think she's treated fairly

938
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:38,560
Speaker 2: on social media. I just don't. I think she gets

939
00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:41,920
Speaker 2: a bad hand and a bad rap, and I'm hoping

940
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:46,520
Speaker 2: that listening to her talk about her life, her career,

941
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 2: and just her spirituality open up your eyes to see

942
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 2: why I really do think she truly is going to

943
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 2: be one of the greatest housewives of all time. Candace

944
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:05,560
