Speaker 1: I mean it's it's super hard to come out with
Speaker 1: a clothing line or whatever and not have people knock
Speaker 1: it off but off yeah, true and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: It's hard to patent the material. Yeah yeah, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: even if you think about like under Armour was really
Speaker 1: the first ones to come out with that sweat wicking material. Remember,
Speaker 1: like for all the it started with like football players
Speaker 1: and athletes and stuff, and now it's just like everywhere
Speaker 1: it's commonplace.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, for sure. I have a semi shady moment.
Speaker 2: Actually it's well, it's kind of shady. So my neighbors
Speaker 2: are doing some construction on their land, like outside landscaping construction.
Speaker 2: They're doing some major things. There's big trucks and all
Speaker 2: kinds of dirt and stuff. Because of there are trees
Speaker 2: that separate us. I really can't see what's happening over there,
Speaker 2: and I really need to know what is over there, nosy,
Speaker 2: because I hear all the I want to know, So
Speaker 2: I like, I go to all different kinds of windows
Speaker 2: in my house to try to look to get a
Speaker 2: better view. Still can't see.
Speaker 3: What's going on over there. Huh.
Speaker 2: So happened to run into my neighbor recently. She was
Speaker 2: coming out of her driveway. I was coming in. I
Speaker 2: caught her and I was like, Hey, how you doing it?
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, how's the summer been coming along?
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: Yes, And I was like, you got a lot of
Speaker 2: stuff going on back there, what's happening? And she was like,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, I forgot her husband's n Lets say her
Speaker 2: husbands name is Tim. Oh yeah, Tim is doing some project.
Speaker 2: And I was like, well, what's happening girl?
Speaker 3: A project?
Speaker 2: She was like, I left him in charge of that.
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 2: So I said, well, well, what's I asked about four times?
Speaker 2: What what y'all doing back there? Y'all putting a pool in?
Speaker 2: She was like, oh, no, no pool? When no pool?
Speaker 2: I said, okay, what are you back there? I still
Speaker 2: don't know. I did not get an answer. She said,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, they're just I mean, I just left him
Speaker 2: in charge. What what does that mean? That's shady? In
Speaker 2: other words, she's out, mind business, mind your your business mine?
Speaker 2: But like, why wouldn't you tell me? So you're forcing
Speaker 2: me to have to like beg you, well, this is
Speaker 2: what this is what I'm going to do. And I
Speaker 2: hope they don't listen to this podcast. Okay, so sometimes
Speaker 2: there has been a time or two that that people
Speaker 2: have left packages for me at their house. I'm going
Speaker 2: to act like that's happening, so that means I will
Speaker 2: walk my little self off. But I have to wait
Speaker 2: till they're I kind of finished, okay, and this is
Speaker 2: a major project, so it might take like three months.
Speaker 2: So they didn't brought trees in. I mean, it's they
Speaker 2: got stuff going on over there, and I just need
Speaker 2: to know what. It's a lot going on.
Speaker 3: So she's not like, oh, we're just spilding a backyard.
Speaker 2: Gazebo or tell me that. Yes, yeah, I really didn't
Speaker 2: get an answer, so that's weird. I'm gonna pretend like
Speaker 2: they have one of my packages, and I hope they don't.
Speaker 3: Listen to building like a Please don't like a greenhouse
Speaker 3: to sell to grow weed or something.
Speaker 2: They're not they're not those kind of people. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: they're artsy. Well they are a little artsy fartsy, but
Speaker 2: I don't know anyway. I will let y'all know in
Speaker 2: three months what's going on back there.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: But it's a little shady that she wants trying to
Speaker 2: tell me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's weird.
Speaker 2: Weird or shady.
Speaker 3: I think it's both. Yes, it's both. Both. Okay, all right,
Speaker 3: so we Oh, by the way, y'all, this is a
Speaker 3: mini episode.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we listen. We're on vacation. Robin is and
Speaker 2: me too. Yes, yes, I'm on a vacation in my mind.
Speaker 2: Robin's really on bage. Okay.
Speaker 3: Yes, so we're quite busy, but we didn't want to
Speaker 3: leave you hangings. And this is a mini episode.
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, So before we do the cause, can I
Speaker 2: do my little.
Speaker 3: Scenario?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I heard on the radio, yes, okay, all right, so
Speaker 1: I heard I was listening listening to the d L
Speaker 1: Hugly Show in the morning. Hey DL, Yes, and a
Speaker 1: man called in and he needed advice or he needed
Speaker 1: to know if he was being shady.
Speaker 2: Okay, so was is that? Did they do that? They
Speaker 2: you can call into DL Hugly show for shady and
Speaker 2: they don't use the word.
Speaker 1: Shady, no, no, but he kind of just needed people's
Speaker 1: opinions on what he You know, this scenario got it.
Speaker 1: I don't even think he needed advice because he what
Speaker 1: he said was like pretty much definitive and what he did,
Speaker 1: he just needed to know if he was wrong.
Speaker 2: Okay, you got it.
Speaker 3: So kind of kind of similar. Okay. So he called in.
Speaker 1: He said he was dating, He was with his girlfriend
Speaker 1: for five years and recently her child's father tragically and
Speaker 1: suddenly passed away. Okay, so he said one day, she
Speaker 1: called him and said, hey, I just came from the
Speaker 1: tattoo the tattoo place, and I got my child's father's
Speaker 1: name tattooed on my body. And so he broke up
Speaker 1: with her. Okay, So the question was like should was
Speaker 1: he wrong for breaking up with her? Like how should
Speaker 1: he have handled that? And there were mixed the call
Speaker 1: people calling in had mixed, mixed views.
Speaker 3: Mixed ye, mixed feelings, mixed opinions.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I would need to know where on the
Speaker 2: body it is because if it was like right above
Speaker 2: her the JJ, that's a problem.
Speaker 3: No, I don't think it was. I can't if it's
Speaker 3: not remember that detail.
Speaker 1: I don't think it was anywhere like super intimate because
Speaker 1: he didn't really say that part, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: If it was like underneath her toe, that's fine, have
Speaker 2: that it right?
Speaker 3: What if it's like on her arm?
Speaker 2: No, I don't. I actually don't want to see any
Speaker 2: woman's name on a dude's body that I'm looking at
Speaker 2: right and it and it has I have seen names
Speaker 2: and I've been like, what's that right, and the answer
Speaker 2: was that's my mother And I was like, who passed away?
Speaker 2: So I was like that's cool. Okay, Okay, I'm here
Speaker 2: for that. But and I know wan situation. Yeah, with
Speaker 2: the tattoo that you have had to live with, Yes, Yes,
Speaker 2: which is actually traumatic yep for me. And I don't
Speaker 2: have sex with him, so that's traumatic. I think. I
Speaker 2: think I think he was okay to break up with her.
Speaker 2: I think that's justifiable.
Speaker 3: Really, I do, I think.
Speaker 1: Okay, So, first of all, I think she clearly she
Speaker 1: was very emotionally distraught that the child's father passed away. Yes,
Speaker 1: because you know, I guess they have a child together,
Speaker 1: they've known each other for a long time, they have
Speaker 1: a you know, relationship or whatever. And I think a
Speaker 1: lot of people when they're grieving, they might do something
Speaker 1: very hasty. Yes, in that moment, yes, right, So I
Speaker 1: think the boyfriend should have given her a little bit
Speaker 1: more grace and understanding and saying, Okay, you're you're clearly
Speaker 1: super emotional. You made a very hasty decision based on
Speaker 1: the grieving and the emotion that you're going through. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't been happy about it, but I don't know that
Speaker 1: breaking up is someone that you've been with for five years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, now that you say it like that, that's and
Speaker 2: this guy's not a threat anymore. Like if he was
Speaker 2: a threat, he's gone, right, So I wouldn't I wouldn't
Speaker 2: have broken up.
Speaker 3: No, yeah he was.
Speaker 2: That was shady.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would have been like, you know, maybe he
Speaker 1: broke up because it like it turned him off, Like okay,
Speaker 1: I'm clearly going to go like tattoo somebody else's name
Speaker 1: on your body, you know. But yeah, there's nothing for
Speaker 1: him to worry about. But I think it's just you
Speaker 1: need to understand, like he needs to understand. She was
Speaker 1: in a super emotional state and made a very hasty decision. Yes,
Speaker 1: And I mean I don't know if at some point
Speaker 1: you cover it up or what you about it. But
Speaker 1: I thought he was in the wrong.
Speaker 2: I think he wanted to break up with her anyway.
Speaker 2: I think that's this is an excuse.
Speaker 3: Yeah maybe, yeah, he didn't like her or her child.
Speaker 1: Ye, right, if the relationship was that strong, if you've
Speaker 1: been together five years and you're in a good place,
Speaker 1: it's a great relationship.
Speaker 3: You're breaking up over something like that?
Speaker 2: No, No, so he yeah, he just this was an excuse. Dude,
Speaker 2: We're on to you, we see you.
Speaker 3: All right, But he called Inny I guess he was
Speaker 3: a little.
Speaker 2: You know, he's in his fields. I think he's going
Speaker 2: to I think the whole situation is going to blow over.
Speaker 2: This is like a blow.
Speaker 3: They'll probably get back. They'll probably get back together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, six months they'll be back together.
Speaker 3: Uh huh yeah, probably not even they probably back together
Speaker 3: now true?
Speaker 2: All right, So Sharon Sharon Kayak twenty twelve, we have
Speaker 2: to ask people, where do y'all got to come up
Speaker 2: with these names? Yeah? I know, Okay, why I can't
Speaker 2: Sharon Sharon said, why I can't think of any questions. Nevertheless,
Speaker 2: I love you Robin and Giselle GEB's continued success. Sharon Kayak, what,
Speaker 2: oh my gosh, we love you too. Yes, we definitely
Speaker 2: gotall too. Okay, this is probably better. This is probably
Speaker 2: my question, not your question, because I'm closer to it
Speaker 2: than you. How do y'all feel about one day being
Speaker 2: the grandmother's Oh? Okay, So I actually recently had had
Speaker 2: a conversation with my children about what I want to
Speaker 2: be called. Okay, when I'm a grandmother, like twenty years
Speaker 2: from now and twenty years I mean no time soon,
Speaker 2: so okay, ten years man, So I said, I want

Speaker 2: I'll be like, drop the baby over, yes, and I'll
Speaker 2: let you know when to pick them up right, yeah,
Speaker 2: which would be like you know, it could be a day,
Speaker 2: it could be an hour, it could be three weeks.
Speaker 2: I'll let you know, but I want to keep the child.
Speaker 3: It will not be three weeks, I'm sure.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, four days.
Speaker 3: I definitely got it. How crazy is that they were?
Speaker 1: They were talking about grandchildren now what I know, and
Speaker 1: we all technically could be grandparents, but we're not.
Speaker 2: What Yes we could, but we're not, thank God.
Speaker 1: Yes, but I miss I find myself looking at old
Speaker 1: pictures of my kids when they were baby, videos, and
Speaker 1: I miss that so much.
Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, speaking of the shade, there might have
Speaker 2: been people in my house. Okay, fine, producers and they
Speaker 2: were like, i'll tell you who this is.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: Later he was like, so, when you're gonna get some
Speaker 2: updated pictures of your kids? And I said, for you know,
Speaker 2: around the house, because a lot most of the pictures
Speaker 2: are like when they were babies. That's actually the pictures
Speaker 2: I love, right, Yes, don't really want this new these
Speaker 2: new found kids, these older kids. Right, the baby pictures
Speaker 2: are everything. He was being shady.
Speaker 3: That's so funny, the worse. But you know it's so crazy, right,
Speaker 3: you know, it's so crazy. I look at my phone.
Speaker 1: I have tons and tons of pictures and when they
Speaker 1: were like kids, little and babies and toddlers and just
Speaker 1: four or five six years old. And now they barely
Speaker 1: want to smile.
Speaker 2: For a picture, I know, especially the boys. Yes, I
Speaker 2: can get the girls to smile, but the girls are
Speaker 2: always smiling. But like the boys, Yes, you got a
Speaker 2: hard way to go.
Speaker 3: It's so hard.
Speaker 1: Come on, now, we have to be more intentional with
Speaker 1: the pictures because I don't want to be, you know,
Speaker 1: looking at them when they're forty five and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: I don't have any pictures.
Speaker 3: Of you when you were in your in your teens.
Speaker 2: It's funny. I forget sometimes that people know everything about
Speaker 2: our lives. So I was out, I went to an
Speaker 2: event and I saw a girl that I know recently
Speaker 2: had a baby. I didn't know what she had, so
Speaker 2: I was like, congratulations on the baby, and she said, yeah,
Speaker 2: I gotta call you for you know, advice. She said, well,
Speaker 2: as a matterfic, I don't think I'm gonna call you
Speaker 2: because I had a boy.
Speaker 3: She was like, I'll just call Robin.
Speaker 2: That just like blew me for a second because I'm like,
Speaker 2: of all, you don't know me, like that call and
Speaker 2: you know, damn sure don't know Robin. But yeah, it's
Speaker 2: just sometimes it's weird that people know all about us, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't just see you and just say hey,
Speaker 1: like they're seeing you and there like knowing a little
Speaker 1: They're they're like digging a little bit deeper.
Speaker 3: Yes. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was walking through Macy's just yesterday and the sales
Speaker 1: lady was like, it was me and Carter because I'm
Speaker 1: trying to find him a suit to wear just graduation.
Speaker 2: And the lady's like, hi, Carter, and I'm like, first
Speaker 2: of all, you not only got his name right, you
Speaker 2: didn't call him Corey. Yeah, too much. Y'all know way
Speaker 2: too much about us.

Speaker 3: I was like, I was really impressive. She was an
Speaker 3: older lady too. I was like, Okay, that was very impressive.
Speaker 2: Okay, so good question for you, Ada, Ada k Roberts.
Speaker 3: Have we heard from her before. She's a patreoner.
Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, Patrion, Patrion. Okay, So Corey driving, right, question Mark,
Speaker 2: how's that going? Are the twins going to the same university?
Speaker 2: I'll answer first, no, they're not. The twins are splitting up.
Speaker 2: I was sad at first, but now I'm like, I think.
Speaker 3: It's good, yeah, for both of them. Yeah, So I
Speaker 3: think that's really good for both of them.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think that's interesting.
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see how they handle it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and how they you know, who knows one of them
Speaker 1: might end up transferring. They might.
Speaker 2: And I told him that that is an option they
Speaker 2: can They can do that. They're freshman year, that's it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, yeah, Corey driving. Corey he has his permit,
Speaker 1: so he does not have his license yet, but he is.
Speaker 1: He gets a lot of hours in on the road
Speaker 1: between want and I. He'll drive to school or from school,
Speaker 1: or really to basketball practice. He drove through Baltimore City
Speaker 1: to basketball practice. So he's getting his getting his experience in.
Speaker 1: And it is a very like pinch me type of moment,
Speaker 1: like dang, we're already here.
Speaker 3: Yes, we're already here. But he's a good driver. I'm
Speaker 3: impressed with him so far.
Speaker 2: So next school year he'll be able to drive himself, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he can get his license in like
Speaker 3: October or so.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, Why do I think he got his
Speaker 2: luck from it? Like a long time?
Speaker 1: I was, well, no, no, because you have to you
Speaker 1: have to be six at least sixteen for six months.
Speaker 1: So he turned sixteen in March. Yeah, so he guess
Speaker 1: he can get it in September and.
Speaker 2: September yeah okay, and then he can drive maybe check
Speaker 2: care of everybody, drive Carter.
Speaker 3: Yes, okay, and then fantastic.
Speaker 1: As much as I hate that my kids are getting older,
Speaker 1: I'm so sick of driving them everywhere.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're at the age where you're all I mean,
Speaker 2: they're at the age where you're over it. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: By the time my kids hit like thirteen, Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I was so over driving them places. I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: hell no, I can't do this anymore. I'm not sex cat.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's NonStop, and it's it's between like workouts and
Speaker 1: practice and games of course school the school drop off
Speaker 1: and pick up and physical therapy, doctor appointments. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: the car line. I'm so sick of it. Like my
Speaker 1: day gets so hectic when they get out of school
Speaker 1: because we're just all over the place.
Speaker 2: Yes, the car line is the worst thing that's ever
Speaker 2: been invented. Yeah, okay, I think this is our last
Speaker 2: question of the day because we got to get out
Speaker 2: of here. Y'all now listen, because we're on vacation. We're
Speaker 2: not even here, right, Okay, we live in life. It
Speaker 2: must be hard to develop new real friendships without doubt,
Speaker 2: which is yes.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I trust no one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very hard to trust people for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just it's it's for me. It's more like their intentions,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 1: And especially now that we're you know, we've been on
Speaker 1: the show, it's like, Okay, are you trying to be
Speaker 1: my friend because I'm on the show, yeah, or like
Speaker 1: you're actually like a real genuine person and we're just
Speaker 1: and you're just cool.
Speaker 2: But I don't think there are genuine people just kidding.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: I a very famous person told me a long time
Speaker 2: ago that he trusts no one, and I was like,
Speaker 2: that's weird and that's gotta suck, and like, why do
Speaker 2: you want to live life like that? Like that you
Speaker 2: just can't trust anybody. I feel the same way right now.
Speaker 3: You understand totally.
Speaker 2: I understand I don't nobody nobody, And you know, even
Speaker 2: with new friendships, because we talked about like getting becoming
Speaker 2: friends with people as an adult, like, yeah, we can
Speaker 2: be friends, but they're still like, I'm not telling you
Speaker 2: all my everything, right, Yeah, i'mnna give you like ten percent, right,
Speaker 2: you got to work up to fifty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think it takes a while, Like when
Speaker 1: you meet a new person, I think it takes a
Speaker 1: while for both sides to gain that trust anyway. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, it's like, yeah, you might that you might
Speaker 1: meet that person and they might not be trustworthy at
Speaker 1: that time. But if you happen to kind of stay
Speaker 1: in each other's lives and your relationship grows and develops,
Speaker 1: then the trust factor can strengthen. Yeah, oh yes, you
Speaker 1: should immediately not trust anyone, definitely, and then let them
Speaker 1: allow them to prove themselves somehow. You know that that
Speaker 1: you feel you can trust them.
Speaker 2: Right, and we can have sex, we can do very
Speaker 2: nasty things, and I don't need to trust you at all,
Speaker 2: right the end, And you shouldn't be trusting me, and
Speaker 2: I'm not trustworthy. I'm just here to tell you right right,
Speaker 2: all right, we gotta go. We are out of here.
Speaker 2: We want y'all have a wonderful If you're on vac
Speaker 2: have a wonderful time, and don't never forget to live
Speaker 2: your life reasonable or shady.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we're boes.
Speaker 2: No, don't be safe, but yes, be safe, definitely be
Speaker 2: safe here in these streets. These streets are wild.
Speaker 3: It's wrong with you by
