0:00:00.880 --> 0:00:05.439
<v Speaker 1>So you mean to tell me you had a dangerous, violence, aggressive,

0:00:06.080 --> 0:00:09.520
<v Speaker 1>tall woman with huge feet. According to Candace, you let

0:00:09.560 --> 0:00:11.600
<v Speaker 1>that person come in the house and stay with you.

0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:15.280
<v Speaker 1>But Monique and Kandas are making black women look bad.

0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:16.320
<v Speaker 1>What is Mia doing?

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:20.479
<v Speaker 2>What is Mia doing? Because it's the same situation, same setting.

0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:31.440
<v Speaker 3>Stay tuned, we'll be right back after these quick ads.

0:00:35.920 --> 0:00:37.680

<v Speaker 3>So look, I did have a six week hiatus for

0:01:14.480 --> 0:01:19.759
<v Speaker 3>Reality with the King podcast, and during that time, my love,

<v Speaker 1>I love it they're looking for the twenty three year

0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 1>old Jasmine. I love how somebody really thought your friend

0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:24.160
<v Speaker 1>really thought I was twenty three. No long ways away. Yes,

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I've been great. I am at Sony now. So I'm

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>the executive producer of Entertainment Podcasts at Sony, and it's

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:37.160
<v Speaker 1>been a really cool journey. I miss you obviously, like yeah,

0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:39.799
<v Speaker 1>but we still talk. Though we still talk, but I

0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>miss just kind of like being with you in terms

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.639
<v Speaker 1>of like working with you on the show and helping

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>you out in all of that. So it's so good

0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.360
<v Speaker 1>to just be back with you in this form outside

0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 1>of me just like calling you, like Hey, you got

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:53.160
<v Speaker 1>five minutes and then thirty minutes later were still on

0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>the phone.

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:55.840
<v Speaker 2>So it's good to be here.

0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:59.160
<v Speaker 3>So look, we have to do a deep dive into

0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:03.520
<v Speaker 3>Platon and what went wrong this season to the point

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 3>where a lot of people are turned off by it.

0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:08.519
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to talk to you because you're not only

0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:11.200
<v Speaker 3>my friend, you're not only a fan favorite.

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.720
<v Speaker 4>You're also a fan of Potomac.

0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:16.679
<v Speaker 3>You're a black woman as well, and all of those

0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 3>things to me is a condition in terms of.

0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:22.400
<v Speaker 4>Who I wanted to talk to about this topic.

0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.960
<v Speaker 3>I did not want to do this alone because I

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:28.840
<v Speaker 3>wanted somebody who, again unlike me, who's not in the

0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:33.799
<v Speaker 3>reality business, who doesn't have a sort of deep relationship.

0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:33.799
<v Speaker 4>With the cast.

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:36.400
<v Speaker 3>So I wanted to talk to you about it because

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 3>we follow each other on Twitter and honey ms Jasmine said,

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:42.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to put words in your mouth, but

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:46.520
<v Speaker 3>you stopped watching Potomac this past season.

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I did.

0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:50.120
<v Speaker 1>I think the last thing I remember was them they

0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:53.040
<v Speaker 1>went somewhere and they were at they were on a bus.

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 2>I think Wendy put something together.

0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>It might have been in episode two or three, and

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.280
<v Speaker 1>it was when Yeah, Wendy hath them burn the paper,

0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:05.840
<v Speaker 1>and I remember, is that that happened earlier this season, right.

0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:09.120
<v Speaker 4>Jasmine, that's like episode thought, Yeah.

0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:12.320
<v Speaker 1>That's that's the last episode. I remember watching the way

0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:14.640
<v Speaker 1>they tried to do Candace or the way that they

0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 1>were setting it up they were going to try to

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:18.680
<v Speaker 1>do Candace and Chris. I don't fuck with that at all.

0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:23.000
<v Speaker 1>That felt so dark to me and just nasty. And

0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm biased because I really enjoy Candace, Like I think

0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Candace is a star to me, right, So I'm biased absolutely,

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 1>but I just felt like watching anybody the way we

0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 1>had watched Candace and Chris and for that to kind

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>of be the storyline they were going with.

0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:39.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if they continued.

0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 1>With that for the entire season, but I saw that

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:44.920
<v Speaker 1>and immediately I was like, no, this is very very dark.

0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>The Housewives just has gotten into a place, all of them, right,

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 1>every city, they've gotten to a place where like they're

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.360
<v Speaker 1>trying to ruin families, like it's not fun Shade anymore,

0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Like y'all are trying to ruin people.

0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:57.920
<v Speaker 2>And they just really turned me off.

0:04:57.960 --> 0:04:59.760
<v Speaker 1>And it just felt like this is a group of

0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 1>women and these are not friends in any sense of

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:05.520
<v Speaker 1>the imagination. When filming starts, they come, they clock in,

0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 1>they you know, discuss their little story lines or whatever.

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:11.240
<v Speaker 1>They film the show, and they don't talk to each

0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:14.200
<v Speaker 1>other once that's done. Obviously, Giselle and Robin do because

0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:16.599
<v Speaker 1>they have a podcast together, but it doesn't feel like

0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:19.120
<v Speaker 1>any of them are actually friends. And it just wasn't

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 1>a good watch to me. I didn't get good vibes

0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:22.960
<v Speaker 1>from it, so I stopped whatever that episode was where

0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:26.120
<v Speaker 1>they were burning a paper child at and they weren't

0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:29.119
<v Speaker 1>really trying to hear Wendy out with hers and yeah,

0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Ashley turned on candidate.

0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:34.360
<v Speaker 2>It's real quick. I was like, yes, these these witches

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:34.960
<v Speaker 2>are getting dark.

0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 1>And I say bitch as a term of endearment, like

0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>love them down, respect to all women, but you know

0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:42.560
<v Speaker 1>it's a term of endearment.

0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:45.480
<v Speaker 3>Yes, And listen, now that we don't work with each

0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:48.360
<v Speaker 3>other tomore, we can't reveal that we call each other

0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:50.839
<v Speaker 3>bitches all the time. Time.

0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:53.320
<v Speaker 1>I have to check for myself because I know everybody

0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 1>isn't a fan of that word, and I do, you know,

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 1>genuinely apologize if you're offended by that.

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:59.400
<v Speaker 2>But that's how me and mine, that's how we communicate.

0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:02.839
<v Speaker 3>No, that's you and I communicate, And I had no

0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 3>idea that you stopped watching it that early. Like I said,

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 3>I did not notice this until last week on Twitter

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.719
<v Speaker 3>when you revealed that you stopped watching this season at all.

0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:14.680
<v Speaker 3>One of the things that you and I both used

0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:18.000
<v Speaker 3>to enjoy about Potomac was it was fun. It was

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:22.000
<v Speaker 3>fun shade, It was light shade. And although we knew

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:25.680
<v Speaker 3>that Giselle was a producer and wore her producer had,

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 3>we both never felt that it was so obvious in

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 3>terms of making things happen out of nowhere and pulling

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:35.440
<v Speaker 3>things out of thin air. And the problem with this

0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.920
<v Speaker 3>season was the fact that it's truly everything you said.

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:41.400
<v Speaker 3>It was very dark. And the reason why I'm happy

0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:46.120
<v Speaker 3>we're talking about this is because a physical fight does

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:49.280
<v Speaker 3>not always mean that's the only way things are dark

0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:53.040
<v Speaker 3>on reality TV. At the time of my interview with Giselle,

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:56.040
<v Speaker 3>Jasmine was still on board as the EP of the show,

0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:57.840
<v Speaker 3>and I don't want to put words of.

0:06:57.760 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 4>Your mouth, but we all felt like, Okayjisell was a

0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:01.159
<v Speaker 4>cool woman.

0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:05.440
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, And what I always tell people is outside of

0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 3>the show, the Gizelle that I know personally is a

0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:10.120
<v Speaker 3>breath of fresh air.

0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:11.119
<v Speaker 4>She's so fun.

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:15.360
<v Speaker 3>However, when she's on the show, I feel like Giselle

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:19.040
<v Speaker 3>holds the weight of the show on her shoulders and

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:22.120
<v Speaker 3>she feels the need to behave in a way that

0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 3>is really going to turn people on her.

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because the way that I've been seeing people carry

0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:31.840
<v Speaker 1>on about Gazelle is completely different than I think the

0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Gizelle that I was able to meet when she came

0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 1>on your show. I will say, obviously I only had

0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:40.840
<v Speaker 1>that experience with her, and I recognize she was coming

0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:42.920
<v Speaker 1>on your show. I'm an executive producer of your show.

0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:45.240
<v Speaker 1>There's a level of the quorum that you know, we

0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 1>had with each other. So I think there is a

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 1>politeness and a kindness there. But I also think that

0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm a very good judge of character, and Giselle just

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:56.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't come off like a nasty person like. She came

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:59.640
<v Speaker 1>off like a very cool, like down to earth woman.

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:02.840
<v Speaker 1>And so so you know, hearing what I'm hearing about her,

0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:06.760
<v Speaker 1>that she's colorless, that she's evil in all of this,

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:11.400
<v Speaker 1>it feels like it's a different character. Like it feels

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:15.720
<v Speaker 1>like it's a character that she's portraying on television. But again,

0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:18.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't really say for sure. I only met her

0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:19.480
<v Speaker 1>for what like an hour and a half, so I

0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:21.360
<v Speaker 1>don't know if that's how she carries on in her

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:25.280
<v Speaker 1>real life outside of situations like this. I think the

0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Chris thing. I do think there are worlds where, like

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.800
<v Speaker 1>your perception of what's happening is could be uncomfortable. Like

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:35.319
<v Speaker 1>whatever did happen with her and Chris? If he made

0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:37.880
<v Speaker 1>her uncomfortable, that's Giselle's story to tell, right, like none

0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:40.040
<v Speaker 1>of us can tell her he didn't do it. I

0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.400
<v Speaker 1>think the way that it was blown up was very unfair,

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:45.280
<v Speaker 1>and we all know that a lot of people can't

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, think or have discussions with nuance. So it's like,

0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:50.960
<v Speaker 1>once you say a man tried to be in my

0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:53.959
<v Speaker 1>room with us alone and made me feel uncomfortable, people

0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:55.600
<v Speaker 1>are going to automatically assume the worst.

0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:57.040
<v Speaker 2>And that's what I didn't like about it.

0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:58.920
<v Speaker 1>It is like, I don't I think there was a

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.720
<v Speaker 1>point where she did try to Like, I wasn't saying

0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:04.400
<v Speaker 1>he did anything, It's just how I felt, and I

0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:06.240
<v Speaker 1>do think that's the right stance to take. But I

0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:08.720
<v Speaker 1>just think the way it was presented, you can't unring

0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 1>that bell once. Once it's wrung, Once you say what

0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 1>you say, you can't go back and like dial it back.

0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, it wasn't really like that. You should have presented

0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:16.760
<v Speaker 2>it that way.

0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Initially, I'm confused, and I think that's why I don't

0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:21.199
<v Speaker 1>like the show anymore, because I'm like, who are these

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:22.240
<v Speaker 1>women really?

0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 2>And truly?

0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:27.280
<v Speaker 4>Now, listen, you're confused, I'm confused. Think about it. I

0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:28.360
<v Speaker 4>praised the show.

0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:31.800
<v Speaker 3>I told my millions of listeners how much I love

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:35.719
<v Speaker 3>the show. I gave Gazelle the coveted position and being

0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.520
<v Speaker 3>in the top ten greatest Housewives of all time. So

0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:42.680
<v Speaker 3>you're not alone, Jasmine in your confusion. As I was

0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:45.600
<v Speaker 3>watching this season, because I did watch more episodes than you.

0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:48.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm so happy for you.

0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:55.920
<v Speaker 3>I always said, Jasmine, something's off about this season. So

0:09:56.600 --> 0:10:00.959
<v Speaker 3>when it was revealed that not only are we confused

0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:04.120
<v Speaker 3>about this Chris Bassett story, because listen, in Giselle's defense,

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.480
<v Speaker 3>I have spoken to people who are friends with Giselle,

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:11.280
<v Speaker 3>and they also told me that Gazelle told them days

0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:13.520
<v Speaker 3>after it happened that she did feel uncomfortable. So I

0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:17.240
<v Speaker 3>want to make people understand that Giselle, in real life,

0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:18.559
<v Speaker 3>we have mutual friends.

0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:21.160
<v Speaker 4>Our mutual friends have told me personally.

0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:25.760
<v Speaker 3>To Gazelle's credit, she did tell us that she felt

0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:27.000
<v Speaker 3>uncomfortable with Chris.

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:28.080
<v Speaker 4>That is a truth.

0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:32.040
<v Speaker 3>I think the part that gets confusing is she waited

0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:34.320
<v Speaker 3>over a year to.

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.319
<v Speaker 4>Talk about it on the show.

0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:41.480
<v Speaker 3>And although, as a producer myself, yes, we want you

0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 3>to bring things to life to the show, but I

0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:47.360
<v Speaker 3>think that year and a half gap of not talking

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:50.400
<v Speaker 3>about it and Giselle saying, well, I brought it up

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:54.480
<v Speaker 3>because Ashley was talking about these dms. It's sort of like, Okay,

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:58.000
<v Speaker 3>Ashley had an instant story. She posted a video in

0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:04.400
<v Speaker 3>her stories responded to Ashley's story and said, why didn't

0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:06.880
<v Speaker 3>y'all come to the job he works at the w

0:11:07.040 --> 0:11:12.840
<v Speaker 3>Hotel and party and Ashley allegedly took that to the

0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:16.840
<v Speaker 3>alleged meeting that the housewives have before filming, and that's

0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:19.240
<v Speaker 3>how they made this part of the storyline allegedly.

0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:21.440
<v Speaker 4>Not pre production, Yes, this.

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:26.199
<v Speaker 3>Is pre production, and that's what made Giselle allegedly bring

0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:29.360
<v Speaker 3>up the Chris Bassett thing and they started to put

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:34.200
<v Speaker 3>this issue together. So that's why it's confusing Jasmine too,

0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:38.640
<v Speaker 3>because it did happen over a year ago. To Gizelle's credit,

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:42.240
<v Speaker 3>he told people immediately, but she did not tell To

0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:46.800
<v Speaker 3>your point again, Jazz, if Candace is your friend, why

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 3>are you telling every Tom, Dick and Harry about this?

0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:52.800
<v Speaker 3>But you don't tell the woman you claim to be

0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:54.720
<v Speaker 3>friends with who you're on the show.

0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 1>And if your intentions weren't to make Chris seem like

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:03.760
<v Speaker 1>a bad person, why not tell Candace in private without

0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:07.320
<v Speaker 1>cameras there right, Like, you know, Jiselle's a brilliant woman.

0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:10.640
<v Speaker 1>She knows what the implications are of telling Candace that

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 1>about her husband on national television. You know what that

0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:17.160
<v Speaker 1>was gonna do. So if you really did care for Candace,

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:20.080
<v Speaker 1>or if you weren't trying to make it what it became,

0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:23.240
<v Speaker 1>why not call her right after it happened, like, hey, girl,

0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:26.240
<v Speaker 1>this just happened. I know Chris is this type of guy,

0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:28.199
<v Speaker 1>but this did make me feel this way. And as

0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:30.440
<v Speaker 1>a woman, I'm sure you can understand that because what

0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:32.719
<v Speaker 1>I also have come to know I think we've all

0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:36.079
<v Speaker 1>come to know about Candace. She's rational until you activate her,

0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 1>but she's a rational person. So I think Candace would

0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:41.480
<v Speaker 1>have understood if Giselle called her and said that and

0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:44.640
<v Speaker 1>even if Candace didn't, y'all can do that over the phone.

0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:46.680
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to wait until the cameras are rolling

0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:48.679
<v Speaker 1>to then tell her that, because one you know, is

0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:51.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna activate her and piss her off. And then you

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:52.800
<v Speaker 1>know what that looks like to the rest of us

0:12:52.880 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 1>watching like it just it feels dark.

0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:57.319
<v Speaker 3>No, it does, And what also felt dark was and

0:12:57.360 --> 0:12:59.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure you saw the clips online about.

0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:02.520
<v Speaker 4>This jazz Mea throwing a drink on Wendy.

0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:06.959
<v Speaker 1>Oh gosh, I always forget that Mia exists, but yet.

0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:11.160
<v Speaker 4>Damn jazz.

0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Mia did give us a she gave but no, okay,

0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I'll give me a this does a frog have a

0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:23.120
<v Speaker 1>watertight asshole? I text you that you did so, yes,

0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:26.280
<v Speaker 1>that thank you for your contribution.

0:13:26.120 --> 0:13:29.439
<v Speaker 4>And that's it.

0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:33.160
<v Speaker 1>It feels like she's always trying too hard. And we

0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:36.440
<v Speaker 1>talked about this when we were having the discussion about

0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Real Housewives Orange County and Noela right, like, they have

0:13:40.400 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 1>the makings of really good housewives, but they are trying

0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:45.960
<v Speaker 1>too hard and it's just coming off very inauthentic and

0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:50.280
<v Speaker 1>just hard to follow, hard to relate to, hard to like,

0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:52.160
<v Speaker 1>hard to like, hard to like on the show.

0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:54.960
<v Speaker 3>For me, when you saw her throw a drink on

0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:58.280
<v Speaker 3>Wendy and you saw the aftermath, because again, I'm pretty

0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:00.000
<v Speaker 3>sure you saw the clips of it, or.

0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:00.400
<v Speaker 4>Did you not.

0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I want to say I have seen the clip of

0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:05.559
<v Speaker 1>that happen because she threw it kind of like backhandidly,

0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:07.080
<v Speaker 1>like she was sitting next to Wendy.

0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Yes, okay, I've seen that clip.

0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yeah, she threw it to her faith and she

0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:13.120
<v Speaker 3>did it, and then she tried to hit.

0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 4>Her with her purse. She tried to like, no, I know.

0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:19.200
<v Speaker 3>This is the reason why I got upset about that.

0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:23.880
<v Speaker 3>And me and dj Ritchie Sky did a recap about

0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:26.880
<v Speaker 3>that episode, and he felt so strongly too, how disgusting

0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:29.560
<v Speaker 3>and dark it was. We all agreed to that Mia

0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:33.960
<v Speaker 3>took her purse and was trying to hit Wendy with

0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:34.480
<v Speaker 3>her purse.

0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:36.720
<v Speaker 2>That's guttersnipe behavior.

0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:39.400
<v Speaker 4>Not guttersnipe Jasmine.

0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:43.760
<v Speaker 3>It got so bad that Wendy's employer, John Hopkins University

0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:47.000
<v Speaker 3>child They put a black car up and said this

0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 3>university has no connection to the real housewats of Potomac.

0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:51.520
<v Speaker 2>Wait where did they put that?

0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:53.960
<v Speaker 4>They put that? You know how you put the black

0:14:53.960 --> 0:14:54.960
<v Speaker 4>car up at the end.

0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'm the TV I think.

0:14:58.160 --> 0:14:59.320
<v Speaker 4>On the TV screen.

0:14:59.520 --> 0:15:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, yes, but you don't. I don't want

0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:05.240
<v Speaker 1>to harp on the past. What was the reaction to

0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:08.800
<v Speaker 1>their coworkers after this happened, Because I really want to

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:09.760
<v Speaker 1>draw a line.

0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 4>Okay, so I'm gonna tell you something, Jasmine. Let me

0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:14.440
<v Speaker 4>tell you what happened first.

0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:18.720
<v Speaker 3>So, after Mia through a drink on Wendy, Robin took

0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:21.080
<v Speaker 3>her phone out and started recording it, and there were

0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:26.160
<v Speaker 3>numerous shots of Robin laughing at what was going on

0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:30.160
<v Speaker 3>in front of her. Then Giselle was eating her dinner

0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:35.360
<v Speaker 3>and telling what Wendy was. Of course, you know, listen,

0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:38.720
<v Speaker 3>a black girl got a drink thrown, so of course

0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.160
<v Speaker 3>you're reacting like black folks do.

0:15:41.200 --> 0:15:42.840
<v Speaker 4>Like I'm gonna beat her. You know, I'm gonna do this.

0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:43.760
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna do that.

0:15:43.760 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 3>That was Wendy's natural reaction, right so as any black

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:50.320
<v Speaker 3>woman in that situation done the same thing.

0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:51.840
<v Speaker 4>I'm about to whoop her boom boom.

0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:56.080
<v Speaker 3>Even Phaedra, who has esquad after her last name, tried

0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:58.840
<v Speaker 3>to be like an esther and get her purse and

0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:02.360
<v Speaker 3>hit Kenya with it. Because when a black girl is

0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:05.440
<v Speaker 3>and that things happen, so Gizelle should know that she

0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:06.560
<v Speaker 3>went to an HBCU.

0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:09.480
<v Speaker 1>When a person physically a tax you, that should be

0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:11.440
<v Speaker 1>your next go to to defend yourself.

0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:13.440
<v Speaker 4>Is I know a child.

0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:15.960
<v Speaker 3>Some of these Bisley Hills housewives don't, so any who,

0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:19.600
<v Speaker 3>Wendy was saying that and Gizelle was like, she might

0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:20.160
<v Speaker 3>hit you back.

0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:21.920
<v Speaker 4>You know you need to sit down paraphrasing.

0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:25.840
<v Speaker 3>A few days later after that aired, I saw Giselle

0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:30.400
<v Speaker 3>at Portia's wedding. Me and Giselle said next to each

0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.600
<v Speaker 3>other at Porsia's Nigerian wedding.

0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:34.600
<v Speaker 4>Because me and Giselle are friends.

0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:37.720
<v Speaker 3>I will never disclose a private conversation to the public,

0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:39.960
<v Speaker 3>but what I will share with you, Jasmine and the

0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:44.240
<v Speaker 3>listeners is the fact that I really took that moment

0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:49.400
<v Speaker 3>and told Giselle how I felt, and I was very

0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:50.240
<v Speaker 3>sincere with.

0:16:50.280 --> 0:16:51.680
<v Speaker 4>Giselle, who I love.

0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:56.880
<v Speaker 3>I really had a real deep conversation with Giselle. And

0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:59.480
<v Speaker 3>the only thing I will say is at the very end,

0:16:59.680 --> 0:17:03.880
<v Speaker 3>jose Yelle had her rebuttal to me, right, because.

0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:04.359
<v Speaker 4>That's what friends do.

0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:06.840
<v Speaker 3>Me and Jasmine always have rebuttals because I feel like

0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:09.520
<v Speaker 3>when you're passionate about something you just It's not always

0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:11.840
<v Speaker 3>like yes, ma'am, yes, sorry, no, you have a rebuttal

0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:15.640
<v Speaker 3>to Jaselle's credit. At the very end of our conversation,

0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:18.720
<v Speaker 3>Giselle said, I see your point.

0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:22.200
<v Speaker 4>I got you, and I.

0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:24.760
<v Speaker 3>Wanted to share that because I know Gizelle gets a

0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 3>lot of flack and I have had numerous moments of

0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:31.800
<v Speaker 3>being disappointed with Giselle numerous If a friend can't be

0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:36.800
<v Speaker 3>real with you, you don't want to grow. And my concern

0:17:36.960 --> 0:17:42.720
<v Speaker 3>for Gizelle is she doesn't have many or any people

0:17:42.760 --> 0:17:45.360
<v Speaker 3>around her Jasmin who can tell her like.

0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:46.600
<v Speaker 4>You need to stop.

0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:49.520
<v Speaker 3>And when I say that, I mean it's the circle

0:17:49.560 --> 0:17:53.359
<v Speaker 3>of friends you're around. Robin, if that's your best friend,

0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:55.440
<v Speaker 3>both of y'all should be holding each other account of Bell.

0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:58.720
<v Speaker 3>It shouldn't be Carlos King, and it should also be

0:17:58.840 --> 0:17:59.440
<v Speaker 3>the production.

0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:01.240
<v Speaker 2>Can Robin hold her accountable?

0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:03.760
<v Speaker 1>Robin feels the same way and holds the same views,

0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:07.240
<v Speaker 1>It's impossible. My expectation isn't for Robin to hold Jozel

0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:11.119
<v Speaker 1>accountable for anything. Like I said, it's a character that

0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:13.679
<v Speaker 1>she's playing. That's why it's like really hard to just

0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.639
<v Speaker 1>get with. You know, at this point, we know reality TV.

0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:21.000
<v Speaker 1>That's a loose term, right, yes, But her saying I

0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:22.639
<v Speaker 1>see your point at the end of your talk at

0:18:22.680 --> 0:18:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Portia's wedding speaks to the person that I met when

0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:28.440
<v Speaker 1>she came to do your show. She seems reasonable, right,

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:32.639
<v Speaker 1>she seems nice, kind, Right, That's not the person that

0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:37.120
<v Speaker 1>people are experiencing on Potomac. And again I say, which

0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:40.280
<v Speaker 1>one is the real? Will the real Zelle Bryant please

0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:40.920
<v Speaker 1>stand up.

0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:42.760
<v Speaker 2>For real?

0:18:43.080 --> 0:18:46.480
<v Speaker 1>That's how I feel about it, like show yourself, because

0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:49.359
<v Speaker 1>she seems like such a likable person when she's not

0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:52.040
<v Speaker 1>playing the Giselle on potomach I think her even just

0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:56.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of encouraging. Wendy and MIA's kind of feud is

0:18:56.920 --> 0:19:01.240
<v Speaker 1>also very contradictory because with my Nique in Candace Spot

0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:04.960
<v Speaker 1>it was, y'all, are you know representing black women wrong?

0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:08.040
<v Speaker 1>And I forgot all the ship she pulled bringing security

0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:10.960
<v Speaker 1>around her. Did she bring security with her the next

0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:13.480
<v Speaker 1>time she was around Mia? I'm gonna assume.

0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:14.240
<v Speaker 4>No, no.

0:19:14.520 --> 0:19:16.919
<v Speaker 3>And then Mia was allowed to stay in the house

0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:19.240
<v Speaker 3>after the fight and Wendy had to go into a

0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:19.920
<v Speaker 3>hotel room.

0:19:20.080 --> 0:19:24.560
<v Speaker 1>So, Yumana, tell me you had a dangerous violence, aggressive

0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:28.320
<v Speaker 1>tall woman with huge feet according to the Candace, you

0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:30.720
<v Speaker 1>let that person come in the house and stay with you.

0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:34.400
<v Speaker 1>But Monique and Candace are making black women look bad.

0:19:34.440 --> 0:19:35.439
<v Speaker 1>What is Mia doing?

0:19:36.280 --> 0:19:37.000
<v Speaker 2>What is MEA doing?

0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:41.119
<v Speaker 1>Because it's the same situation, same setting. She's aggressive because

0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:43.040
<v Speaker 1>according to you know what I've been seeing on Twitter,

0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:45.879
<v Speaker 1>she also is very shady for pay. She chased her

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:51.960
<v Speaker 1>best friends and her people. That's aggressive. Hashtag aggressive Mia.

0:19:52.280 --> 0:19:55.679
<v Speaker 1>She's taken that from Ashley from around marriag JC. It's

0:19:55.720 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 1>aggressive Mia.

0:19:57.160 --> 0:20:00.440
<v Speaker 3>Exactly instead of aggressive Ashley A love it bat DC

0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:06.600
<v Speaker 3>jas was calling her aggressive via Heypotomac. No, Jasmine, you

0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:09.160
<v Speaker 3>just said something and the light bulb in my head

0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:14.240
<v Speaker 3>went off when you said that, it's shade for pay.

0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:16.240
<v Speaker 4>And I'm going to tell you this.

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:23.840
<v Speaker 3>You have perfectly coined a term that fits how these

0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:28.640
<v Speaker 3>new reality stars are so desperate for a moment that

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:32.560
<v Speaker 3>they no longer want to showcase what's really happening in

0:20:32.600 --> 0:20:35.399
<v Speaker 3>their lives because they feel like, if I'm on TV,

0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:38.680
<v Speaker 3>it is shade for pay. And I can be hard

0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:41.720
<v Speaker 3>on the on the reality stars. As a producer, I

0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:44.919
<v Speaker 3>also have to be hard on the producers. And the

0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:48.720
<v Speaker 3>only thing I want for Giselle is to get on

0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:54.240
<v Speaker 3>camera and have a moment of humility to say I

0:20:54.440 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 3>was wrong, Wendy, I was wrong.

0:20:57.720 --> 0:21:01.199
<v Speaker 4>I was wrong. I was being duplicitous. You're right. I

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:04.359
<v Speaker 4>should have kept that same energy. I'm not perfect. I'm wrong.

0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:07.720
<v Speaker 3>Giselle, if you're listening, and the producers too. This is

0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:12.480
<v Speaker 3>a two person job. Jasmine was my EP on Reality

0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:16.040
<v Speaker 3>with the King for almost a year, and she would

0:21:16.040 --> 0:21:18.199
<v Speaker 3>even say to me, I don't like that.

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:18.720
<v Speaker 4>You said that.

0:21:19.920 --> 0:21:23.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't like that, or hey, you said something, but

0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:25.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm not sure if you knew how people are gonna

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:28.520
<v Speaker 3>take it. I said to her, Oh my gosh, yes,

0:21:28.720 --> 0:21:31.120
<v Speaker 3>oh that wasn't my intention, though she said, oh, I didn't.

0:21:30.880 --> 0:21:33.600
<v Speaker 4>Think it was. But I'm just I'm helping you.

0:21:33.800 --> 0:21:37.480
<v Speaker 3>But this intelligent black woman who I love and trust,

0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:41.560
<v Speaker 3>checked me, and I allowed myself to be censored.

0:21:42.080 --> 0:21:43.800
<v Speaker 4>I allowed myself to be checked.

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:46.160
<v Speaker 3>And if you want to row with the big dogs,

0:21:46.359 --> 0:21:49.720
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna have to allow people to check you.

0:21:50.280 --> 0:21:50.600
<v Speaker 2>Who.

0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:53.280
<v Speaker 4>I hate to interrupt, but stay tuned for more.

0:21:53.720 --> 0:22:04.119
<v Speaker 3>We'll be right back after these quick asss. This is

0:22:04.200 --> 0:22:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Reality with the King, and I'm Carlos King. Let's get

0:22:07.560 --> 0:22:12.800
<v Speaker 3>back into the show. Allegedly, some of the Potomac Girls

0:22:12.840 --> 0:22:18.520
<v Speaker 3>are mad because of my recent comments about colorism, and

0:22:18.560 --> 0:22:22.040
<v Speaker 3>how I was so disappointed that they spoke about this

0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:25.800
<v Speaker 3>important topic for two minutes on the show. And let's

0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:28.159
<v Speaker 3>be clear, the reason why I wanted more of a

0:22:28.240 --> 0:22:31.840
<v Speaker 3>discourse about this is because the colorism accusations have been

0:22:31.880 --> 0:22:35.280
<v Speaker 3>happening for three years. It's not like you just came

0:22:35.359 --> 0:22:40.200
<v Speaker 3>up last week. It's been happening for three years. So

0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:42.959
<v Speaker 3>to address it only for two minutes is why I

0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:48.480
<v Speaker 3>was disturbed, and I wanted to see some humility from Giselle,

0:22:48.800 --> 0:22:54.840
<v Speaker 3>Karen Robin, and Mia to say, it's our job as

0:22:54.960 --> 0:22:58.640
<v Speaker 3>life skinned women to listen to really see your point

0:22:58.680 --> 0:23:02.400
<v Speaker 3>of view, so that we can see that maybe subconsciously

0:23:03.160 --> 0:23:05.680
<v Speaker 3>we are doing something that we didn't know we were doing.

0:23:05.760 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 3>We're not colorists, but maybe our behavior is aligning with that,

0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:12.720
<v Speaker 3>and for that we apologize.

0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:15.200
<v Speaker 4>But none of that happened, Jasmine, because I.

0:23:15.160 --> 0:23:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Think the idea of colorism, and be clear, I'm very

0:23:19.320 --> 0:23:25.280
<v Speaker 1>very cautious about assigning anyism to people because I understand

0:23:25.720 --> 0:23:30.000
<v Speaker 1>when you're on a reality TV show, we're only getting

0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:34.200
<v Speaker 1>little bits and pieces of what has actually occurred, and

0:23:34.880 --> 0:23:38.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that the producers have done this, but

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:41.359
<v Speaker 1>they can edit anyway they want. Now, what they can't

0:23:41.480 --> 0:23:44.200
<v Speaker 1>edit is what you are actually doing and actually saying.

0:23:44.600 --> 0:23:47.080
<v Speaker 1>But they can splice shit together to make it look

0:23:47.160 --> 0:23:49.800
<v Speaker 1>like something like we've seen it over the years.

0:23:49.960 --> 0:23:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:52.960
<v Speaker 1>And so while they might not come out and say

0:23:53.440 --> 0:23:55.840
<v Speaker 1>I am colorists, I think what they could have done

0:23:56.000 --> 0:23:59.360
<v Speaker 1>will say I understand how I could be perpetuating colorism.

0:24:00.119 --> 0:24:01.520
<v Speaker 2>I recognized that.

0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:07.919
<v Speaker 1>My treatment of Wendy when aggressive Mia attacked her was

0:24:08.080 --> 0:24:10.719
<v Speaker 1>very different than when I saw Monique and Candice have

0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:13.359
<v Speaker 1>a fight. I recognized that I had a different reaction,

0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 1>and I can understand how that may be perceived as colorism.

0:24:17.480 --> 0:24:20.359
<v Speaker 1>I am not a colorist person, but I can understand

0:24:20.960 --> 0:24:23.479
<v Speaker 1>one how I benefited from colorism into how I can

0:24:23.520 --> 0:24:24.320
<v Speaker 1>perpetuate it.

0:24:24.920 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 2>And had they just said that, I.

0:24:27.040 --> 0:24:29.080
<v Speaker 3>Think they need to hire Jasmin Hilly Brown to be

0:24:29.119 --> 0:24:31.920
<v Speaker 3>producer and potoma now and listen, I'm not saying that's

0:24:31.920 --> 0:24:35.200
<v Speaker 3>a two throw shade. Yeah, and again listen the moment

0:24:35.240 --> 0:24:38.480
<v Speaker 3>I saw this podcast, thanks to Jasmine, she and I

0:24:38.520 --> 0:24:41.400
<v Speaker 3>had a conversation. I said, as long as I'm honest,

0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:43.800
<v Speaker 3>I don't care about what people are going to say

0:24:43.800 --> 0:24:46.480
<v Speaker 3>about me, I have to stay within my honesty and

0:24:46.560 --> 0:24:49.120
<v Speaker 3>me being genuine. The reason why I said that, Jasmine

0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:53.359
<v Speaker 3>about you may be needing to join the production. They're

0:24:53.359 --> 0:24:57.359
<v Speaker 3>going to need someone that is able to keep it

0:24:57.440 --> 0:24:59.320
<v Speaker 3>real with them, the way you kept it real to

0:24:59.440 --> 0:25:02.439
<v Speaker 3>me in our personal relationship, the way you were so

0:25:02.640 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 3>able to like beautifully articulate the messaging of what I

0:25:08.840 --> 0:25:11.840
<v Speaker 3>was trying to say. But again, I'm not a dark

0:25:11.840 --> 0:25:15.400
<v Speaker 3>skinned black woman, and I have a knowledge that I'm

0:25:15.400 --> 0:25:19.520
<v Speaker 3>still learning about my privilege being a light skinned man

0:25:19.960 --> 0:25:21.679
<v Speaker 3>and what that brought me in my life.

0:25:22.160 --> 0:25:25.560
<v Speaker 4>But I at least will always say I don't know.

0:25:25.680 --> 0:25:27.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm here to do better, and it's not my intention

0:25:28.600 --> 0:25:31.840
<v Speaker 3>but my behavior, I could do better. And I think

0:25:31.840 --> 0:25:35.239
<v Speaker 3>to your point, so wonderfully, that's all we wanted, And

0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:38.520
<v Speaker 3>I wish that they had somebody who looks like you,

0:25:38.960 --> 0:25:42.399
<v Speaker 3>who has your experience of diversity in life, to be

0:25:42.520 --> 0:25:45.640
<v Speaker 3>able to say to them, Hey, I'm going to say

0:25:45.680 --> 0:25:47.879
<v Speaker 3>something to y'all that y'all may not like, but this

0:25:47.920 --> 0:25:49.480
<v Speaker 3>is going to help you in the long run.

0:25:49.520 --> 0:25:51.800
<v Speaker 4>It's one or two things happening. Either no one is

0:25:51.880 --> 0:25:53.840
<v Speaker 4>there telling them this, or you.

0:25:53.960 --> 0:25:59.280
<v Speaker 3>Girls some of y'all are so egotistical that you don't

0:25:59.359 --> 0:26:02.439
<v Speaker 3>want to change. And if you don't change, my fear

0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 3>is that you guys are in your Real Housewives of

0:26:06.119 --> 0:26:08.920
<v Speaker 3>Atlanta era, meaning the latter seasons and what I mean

0:26:08.960 --> 0:26:10.320
<v Speaker 3>by that, and this is my opinion.

0:26:10.520 --> 0:26:12.760
<v Speaker 4>The show's in trouble. Jasmin was a fan of the

0:26:12.800 --> 0:26:15.440
<v Speaker 4>show and said she stopped watching it entirely, and.

0:26:15.440 --> 0:26:18.680
<v Speaker 1>I have no plans to go back to watch it. Yeah,

0:26:18.800 --> 0:26:20.119
<v Speaker 1>I do want to follow up on a couple of

0:26:20.160 --> 0:26:22.680
<v Speaker 1>things you said. One, I did not know that you

0:26:22.800 --> 0:26:23.880
<v Speaker 1>consider yourself light skin.

0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:25.960
<v Speaker 4>Oh well, let's talk about it.

0:26:26.600 --> 0:26:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I was like, okay, I'm rocking, I'm rolling.

0:26:29.560 --> 0:26:32.840
<v Speaker 4>No, this was crazy. I as Carlos King, the human being.

0:26:33.000 --> 0:26:33.560
<v Speaker 4>I don't.

0:26:34.040 --> 0:26:34.359
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:26:35.359 --> 0:26:40.200
<v Speaker 3>However, some people in the world do. And I had

0:26:40.240 --> 0:26:42.360
<v Speaker 3>to learn the true story my.

0:26:42.520 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 4>Man, because I'd be like, yeah, you know, it's a

0:26:44.600 --> 0:26:45.080
<v Speaker 4>brown skin.

0:26:45.200 --> 0:26:47.800
<v Speaker 3>He said you think you brown? I said I am brown.

0:26:47.840 --> 0:26:49.480
<v Speaker 3>He said your light skin. And then I get that

0:26:49.560 --> 0:26:53.240
<v Speaker 3>a lot. So to your to your credit, I don't.

0:26:54.000 --> 0:26:57.080
<v Speaker 3>The world does. And it's sort of like how Halle

0:26:57.160 --> 0:27:00.360
<v Speaker 3>Berry's mother told her, yes, you're by racial, how you're

0:27:00.359 --> 0:27:02.480
<v Speaker 3>a black woman, because that's how the world will perceive you.

0:27:03.119 --> 0:27:05.320
<v Speaker 3>So that's why I had to all of a sudden

0:27:05.320 --> 0:27:09.400
<v Speaker 3>because again I'm listening. I was always told that because

0:27:09.440 --> 0:27:14.359
<v Speaker 3>you're not dark skin or dark brown, the world will

0:27:14.400 --> 0:27:17.560
<v Speaker 3>look at your skin and say you're light just by

0:27:17.720 --> 0:27:19.720
<v Speaker 3>courtesy of you not being a dark skinned man.

0:27:19.840 --> 0:27:24.639
<v Speaker 1>I always find conversations around colorism so interesting because I

0:27:24.680 --> 0:27:27.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't grow up thinking that being dark was like a

0:27:27.320 --> 0:27:29.640
<v Speaker 1>bad thing. I have cousins who are very, very light,

0:27:30.040 --> 0:27:32.280
<v Speaker 1>and they always like made fun of each other for

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:34.760
<v Speaker 1>being like really really light. I won't repeat the names

0:27:34.760 --> 0:27:38.480
<v Speaker 1>that they've called each other because they're very problematic, but

0:27:38.520 --> 0:27:41.680
<v Speaker 1>they always I grew up watching them like torment each

0:27:41.680 --> 0:27:44.520
<v Speaker 1>other about being light. And then my mother when I

0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:46.000
<v Speaker 1>was growing up, every time I would ask her, like

0:27:46.000 --> 0:27:48.160
<v Speaker 1>what her favorite color was, she would be like chocolate brown,

0:27:48.200 --> 0:27:51.720
<v Speaker 1>like you right, So like I always grew up with

0:27:51.840 --> 0:27:54.960
<v Speaker 1>my skin color being affirm like feeling like I was

0:27:55.040 --> 0:27:57.679
<v Speaker 1>so beautiful and so cute, even when I know I

0:27:57.680 --> 0:27:59.720
<v Speaker 1>looked awkward because I look back at photos.

0:27:59.359 --> 0:28:02.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, Mom, I look funny.

0:28:02.560 --> 0:28:05.680
<v Speaker 1>She's like, no, you beautiful, Like you always are beautiful, right,

0:28:05.800 --> 0:28:09.359
<v Speaker 1>So I've always grown up having kind of my skin

0:28:09.400 --> 0:28:12.440
<v Speaker 1>color or whatever affirmed, and so I really didn't understand

0:28:12.880 --> 0:28:14.880
<v Speaker 1>that colorism was like a real thing until I want

0:28:14.880 --> 0:28:17.040
<v Speaker 1>to say, my teen year. So I do think I

0:28:17.040 --> 0:28:19.520
<v Speaker 1>have an advantage in a way of like looking at it,

0:28:19.560 --> 0:28:21.639
<v Speaker 1>and I think to some people it is a little naive, because,

0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:23.480
<v Speaker 1>like I said, I wouldn't go off the rip and

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:26.399
<v Speaker 1>just accuse all the light skinned women on Potomac of

0:28:26.440 --> 0:28:31.240
<v Speaker 1>being colorists. I think that they have displayed colorist views

0:28:31.320 --> 0:28:34.800
<v Speaker 1>and they perpetuated colorism, yes, but I think my view

0:28:34.880 --> 0:28:36.399
<v Speaker 1>on it is a little different, And it's not to

0:28:36.400 --> 0:28:38.560
<v Speaker 1>take away from the experiences, because I know it's not

0:28:38.720 --> 0:28:41.960
<v Speaker 1>common right that, like when you're dark skinned to grow

0:28:42.040 --> 0:28:43.840
<v Speaker 1>up to be made to feel like you are the

0:28:43.880 --> 0:28:45.680
<v Speaker 1>most beautiful person to ever walk the planet.

0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:47.800
<v Speaker 2>But my parents made me feel like that.

0:28:48.000 --> 0:28:51.560
<v Speaker 1>When I am articulating a message that Giselle and Robin

0:28:51.640 --> 0:28:54.640
<v Speaker 1>and Mia and Karen, what they could have said is

0:28:54.680 --> 0:28:56.520
<v Speaker 1>coming from a place of like I'm looking at this

0:28:56.920 --> 0:28:59.000
<v Speaker 1>with the bird's eye view, and like just say that

0:28:59.120 --> 0:29:03.160
<v Speaker 1>you were aware, or you didn't look at it that way,

0:29:03.280 --> 0:29:04.720
<v Speaker 1>or you weren't trying.

0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:06.440
<v Speaker 2>To be colorist. That's a better way to say it.

0:29:06.560 --> 0:29:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Like we all are gonna make mistakes, and we all

0:29:09.000 --> 0:29:14.120
<v Speaker 1>perpetuate privileges that we hold also people that don't hold

0:29:14.200 --> 0:29:17.320
<v Speaker 1>those those same privileges, And so all you have to

0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:19.880
<v Speaker 1>do is just acknowledge that I was perpetuating that, and

0:29:19.920 --> 0:29:21.760
<v Speaker 1>I know what it looked like, but that wasn't my attention.

0:29:22.240 --> 0:29:25.040
<v Speaker 1>And I'm sorry, And let Wendy throw a drink back

0:29:25.080 --> 0:29:27.600
<v Speaker 1>on me, get your on my up.

0:29:27.600 --> 0:29:34.800
<v Speaker 2>I can look back, because.

0:29:34.600 --> 0:29:35.440
<v Speaker 4>That's how it really is.

0:29:37.080 --> 0:29:39.840
<v Speaker 3>So but you said something, and we're gonna wrap things

0:29:39.920 --> 0:29:43.360
<v Speaker 3>up though you said that you have no plans on

0:29:43.480 --> 0:29:46.840
<v Speaker 3>going back to watch the next season of Potomac, and

0:29:46.840 --> 0:29:47.880
<v Speaker 3>I would love to know why.

0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:49.720
<v Speaker 2>I am not interested.

0:29:50.040 --> 0:29:53.120
<v Speaker 1>None of the kind of discourse on social media has

0:29:53.400 --> 0:29:56.400
<v Speaker 1>gotten me interested. It just it feels like there's a

0:29:56.440 --> 0:30:00.480
<v Speaker 1>formula right now with specifically with the Real Housewives. There's

0:30:00.520 --> 0:30:03.760
<v Speaker 1>a formula, and I don't like what that formula is.

0:30:03.880 --> 0:30:06.600
<v Speaker 1>It's like, let's pick and this is if you watch

0:30:07.080 --> 0:30:10.280
<v Speaker 1>every city, this is happening across cities. Let's pick one

0:30:10.320 --> 0:30:14.000
<v Speaker 1>person this season and try to ruin their fucking lives. Like,

0:30:14.080 --> 0:30:18.280
<v Speaker 1>let's pick one person and let's make them regret the day.

0:30:18.160 --> 0:30:18.760
<v Speaker 2>They were born.

0:30:18.960 --> 0:30:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Type of thing like it might not be that dramatic,

0:30:21.080 --> 0:30:24.000
<v Speaker 1>but as a viewer, I'm watching this and I'm just

0:30:24.040 --> 0:30:27.640
<v Speaker 1>like every city, there's one person that is like just

0:30:27.720 --> 0:30:29.760
<v Speaker 1>having the worst time of it, and it's like it

0:30:29.800 --> 0:30:32.120
<v Speaker 1>doesn't feel fun. Like I said, it feels like they're

0:30:32.120 --> 0:30:34.280
<v Speaker 1>out to just ruin each other's lives for the sake

0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:37.760
<v Speaker 1>of what like being the favorites on a Reddit thread

0:30:37.880 --> 0:30:39.360
<v Speaker 1>or being the favorites on social media.

0:30:39.880 --> 0:30:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Like it's not that deep.

0:30:40.880 --> 0:30:43.400
<v Speaker 1>Just go back to like talking about each other's hair

0:30:43.600 --> 0:30:46.720
<v Speaker 1>and like the freaking welcome mats in front of your

0:30:46.720 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 1>doors and pressure washing your houses. Like go back to

0:30:49.800 --> 0:30:52.440
<v Speaker 1>that kind of thing, because that is a show that

0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:53.160
<v Speaker 1>I will watch.

0:30:53.240 --> 0:30:57.080
<v Speaker 3>Married to Media Marriati, Battistan is really the best show

0:30:57.080 --> 0:30:57.480
<v Speaker 3>on Bravo.

0:30:57.560 --> 0:30:59.320
<v Speaker 4>But I cannot agree with you more.

0:30:59.360 --> 0:31:02.120
<v Speaker 3>And that's why, again I have to speak on the

0:31:02.160 --> 0:31:05.920
<v Speaker 3>basis of being a producer. That's why I'm very picky

0:31:06.000 --> 0:31:08.840
<v Speaker 3>about producers are hire because a lot of the new

0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:11.840
<v Speaker 3>producers are fans of the show. And that's fine to

0:31:11.840 --> 0:31:13.920
<v Speaker 3>be a fan of of these of these reality shows,

0:31:14.440 --> 0:31:17.680
<v Speaker 3>but they want the low hanging fruit. They want the altercation,

0:31:17.840 --> 0:31:21.400
<v Speaker 3>they want the constant arguments, and I feel like we

0:31:21.480 --> 0:31:24.680
<v Speaker 3>need to get back to what old Atlanta used to be.

0:31:24.880 --> 0:31:27.880
<v Speaker 4>When you know you saw Nini talk to her son.

0:31:28.320 --> 0:31:32.480
<v Speaker 3>About not living up to you know, being an adult

0:31:32.520 --> 0:31:36.920
<v Speaker 3>in the house, you know where you saw even look

0:31:36.960 --> 0:31:41.479
<v Speaker 3>no Shay, you saw Kenya have a really special moment

0:31:41.560 --> 0:31:44.320
<v Speaker 3>of trying to find her mom in Detroit and knocking

0:31:44.360 --> 0:31:47.880
<v Speaker 3>on the doors. That shade for pay is dope in

0:31:47.960 --> 0:31:50.680
<v Speaker 3>terms of how you coined it, because I've always said

0:31:51.600 --> 0:31:54.800
<v Speaker 3>it's not a shade contest. It's now how can I

0:31:55.080 --> 0:31:59.880
<v Speaker 3>eviscerate you verbally? How can I have these one liners?

0:32:00.000 --> 0:32:01.960
<v Speaker 3>I can to make a k O T shirt and

0:32:02.040 --> 0:32:06.480
<v Speaker 3>sell my merch and it's no longer about relationships. I

0:32:06.520 --> 0:32:09.400
<v Speaker 3>don't think you guys understand it's a big deal for

0:32:09.520 --> 0:32:12.560
<v Speaker 3>Jasmine to say that she has no interest in watching

0:32:12.640 --> 0:32:15.440
<v Speaker 3>Potomac because she and I met on the basis of

0:32:15.560 --> 0:32:17.440
<v Speaker 3>like loving that show together.

0:32:17.680 --> 0:32:20.680
<v Speaker 4>Yes, and it saddens me to hear that.

0:32:20.760 --> 0:32:24.120
<v Speaker 3>But my hope is that the casts who are listening,

0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:27.160
<v Speaker 3>I really want y'all to talk about this episode and

0:32:27.320 --> 0:32:30.480
<v Speaker 3>to really listen to Jasmine's point of view, because true

0:32:30.560 --> 0:32:33.480
<v Speaker 3>t I had no idea what Jasmine was going to say.

0:32:33.720 --> 0:32:36.200
<v Speaker 3>I text her yesterday I said his last minute, can

0:32:36.240 --> 0:32:38.440
<v Speaker 3>you join me? I don't want to do this by myself.

0:32:38.760 --> 0:32:40.920
<v Speaker 3>I would love to do it with you. I am

0:32:41.000 --> 0:32:44.680
<v Speaker 3>getting this in real time, what Jasmine is saying. So

0:32:44.760 --> 0:32:48.040
<v Speaker 3>this was not like prepped, and unlike y'all, we didn't

0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:51.600
<v Speaker 3>have a script. So I really hope, Shade, I really

0:32:51.720 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 3>hope that they listened to you. So what would it

0:32:54.680 --> 0:32:58.240
<v Speaker 3>take for you to watch Potomac again?

0:32:58.840 --> 0:33:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Unpopular opinion?

0:33:01.400 --> 0:33:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Get rid of everyone except Candice?

0:33:07.040 --> 0:33:10.200
<v Speaker 4>Not explain?

0:33:10.840 --> 0:33:14.720
<v Speaker 1>So Giselle and Robin have the same formula, and they're

0:33:14.720 --> 0:33:17.040
<v Speaker 1>not going to give us more than what they've given

0:33:17.120 --> 0:33:20.880
<v Speaker 1>us already. I think the last season when we saw

0:33:20.960 --> 0:33:24.840
<v Speaker 1>like Gazelle dating, I think his name was Sherman, and

0:33:24.920 --> 0:33:28.120
<v Speaker 1>someone brought Sherman's ex and I think that embarrassed Gazelle

0:33:28.400 --> 0:33:31.680
<v Speaker 1>so badly. I don't think we're ever getting real storylines

0:33:31.680 --> 0:33:33.760
<v Speaker 1>about her love life, which is what people want to see,

0:33:34.160 --> 0:33:37.760
<v Speaker 1>because that's that's where you know, the most drama lies

0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:39.200
<v Speaker 1>for her. That's the thing when people want to come

0:33:39.240 --> 0:33:41.240
<v Speaker 1>for Gazelle, that's what you don't have a man. You

0:33:41.240 --> 0:33:44.200
<v Speaker 1>can't keep a man, right. We want to see her date,

0:33:44.800 --> 0:33:46.560
<v Speaker 1>and you know, we want to see the ups and

0:33:46.600 --> 0:33:48.160
<v Speaker 1>downs of that. But she's not going to give us that,

0:33:48.240 --> 0:33:51.120
<v Speaker 1>so she's gone because of that. While I do as

0:33:51.160 --> 0:33:55.040
<v Speaker 1>a reality TV personality, Gizelle is good. If she was

0:33:55.160 --> 0:33:58.840
<v Speaker 1>willing to like not be such a this one note character,

0:33:59.000 --> 0:34:01.960
<v Speaker 1>she was going to give us real shit, Giselle could say.

0:34:02.000 --> 0:34:03.400
<v Speaker 2>But she's not, so she can go.

0:34:03.640 --> 0:34:04.000
<v Speaker 4>Robin.

0:34:04.560 --> 0:34:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I used to call Robin Robin paint dry Dixon because

0:34:09.600 --> 0:34:12.640
<v Speaker 1>I just wasn't entertained. Now what I've heard though, is

0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:16.400
<v Speaker 1>that this year she has been bringing it. But for me,

0:34:16.440 --> 0:34:18.920
<v Speaker 1>it's too little, too late. Now I know all the

0:34:18.920 --> 0:34:21.800
<v Speaker 1>things are happening. I know I'm never I'm never gonna

0:34:21.800 --> 0:34:22.720
<v Speaker 1>work in this town again.

0:34:25.000 --> 0:34:26.160
<v Speaker 4>No, that's the gag.

0:34:26.960 --> 0:34:30.759
<v Speaker 3>Because of that, you are going to mark if that's

0:34:30.800 --> 0:34:31.360
<v Speaker 3>the gag.

0:34:32.920 --> 0:34:35.799
<v Speaker 1>I think for Robin, she has these things going on

0:34:35.880 --> 0:34:38.239
<v Speaker 1>with Want's case and like him cheating and.

0:34:38.200 --> 0:34:38.520
<v Speaker 2>All of that.

0:34:38.560 --> 0:34:40.279
<v Speaker 1>I feel like this is not the stuff that's going

0:34:40.320 --> 0:34:42.960
<v Speaker 1>on with Want's case, but the cheating in the marriage.

0:34:42.960 --> 0:34:44.880
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that's kind of a last ditch effort.

0:34:46.280 --> 0:34:48.400
<v Speaker 1>But I just I don't believe it. I don't feel it.

0:34:48.440 --> 0:34:50.439
<v Speaker 1>I just don't really see it. For Robin, I never

0:34:50.520 --> 0:34:53.319
<v Speaker 1>have to be honest, that's my bias showing. Like she said,

0:34:53.360 --> 0:34:55.520
<v Speaker 1>she she doesn't like Wendy. That's why she wasn't defending

0:34:55.520 --> 0:34:58.719
<v Speaker 1>why I don't enjoy Robin as a character on the show.

0:34:58.760 --> 0:35:00.279
<v Speaker 1>So she can go for me, she could to have

0:35:01.040 --> 0:35:06.839
<v Speaker 1>gone a long time ago. Mia can go. I don't

0:35:06.880 --> 0:35:11.520
<v Speaker 1>need to say too much more about that, but Mia, bye, sweetie.

0:35:12.080 --> 0:35:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I genuinely think that Wendy is an amazing person, and

0:35:16.040 --> 0:35:18.719
<v Speaker 1>I think she's so smart, she is beautiful. I just

0:35:18.719 --> 0:35:21.120
<v Speaker 1>think reality TV is gonna push Wendy to a place

0:35:21.160 --> 0:35:23.880
<v Speaker 1>that she's not gonna be able to recover from in

0:35:23.960 --> 0:35:26.040
<v Speaker 1>terms of like who she really wants to be in

0:35:26.080 --> 0:35:28.360
<v Speaker 1>this world. And so for that reason, I think she

0:35:28.360 --> 0:35:30.560
<v Speaker 1>could go. It's not that I don't enjoy her, but

0:35:30.640 --> 0:35:34.759
<v Speaker 1>I think she wants to be perceived as something that

0:35:34.880 --> 0:35:40.240
<v Speaker 1>reality TV is not going to allow her to be. Karen, listen,

0:35:40.320 --> 0:35:42.719
<v Speaker 1>I love the Grandame, but she can go for me.

0:35:43.840 --> 0:35:44.480
<v Speaker 2>She can go.

0:35:44.840 --> 0:35:48.920
<v Speaker 1>She's en daring, but it's not giving iconic and legendary

0:35:48.960 --> 0:35:50.839
<v Speaker 1>like it was the first couple of seasons. Karen has

0:35:50.880 --> 0:35:52.640
<v Speaker 1>done what she needed to do for this franchise, and

0:35:52.680 --> 0:35:55.120
<v Speaker 1>she can bow out gracefully. That's where I'm going with

0:35:55.200 --> 0:36:00.440
<v Speaker 1>Karen and who is left Ashley forgot about her too,

0:36:00.960 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I take that back, actually, because we

0:36:03.600 --> 0:36:07.280
<v Speaker 1>love a good train wreck Candace and Ashley can say

0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:11.359
<v Speaker 1>because Ashley, I need to. I think there's a lot

0:36:11.600 --> 0:36:15.200
<v Speaker 1>more there with Ashley's story, and I think Ashley is

0:36:15.239 --> 0:36:18.360
<v Speaker 1>also very inauthentic in the way she shows up on

0:36:18.400 --> 0:36:21.239
<v Speaker 1>the show as well. But I do think that there

0:36:21.400 --> 0:36:24.399
<v Speaker 1>is a lot more to go with her story and

0:36:24.440 --> 0:36:26.520
<v Speaker 1>her children and stuff like that. So I think keep Candace,

0:36:26.600 --> 0:36:29.600
<v Speaker 1>keep Ashley, get some more like older women, because I

0:36:29.640 --> 0:36:33.200
<v Speaker 1>realized Candace Ashley are very young and like housewives speak,

0:36:33.719 --> 0:36:37.920
<v Speaker 1>So maybe we get some other older women to and

0:36:37.920 --> 0:36:40.880
<v Speaker 1>build a cast around that. But you're the executive producer,

0:36:40.920 --> 0:36:43.160
<v Speaker 1>what do you think of my analysis?

0:36:47.080 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 3>I really need to think about this because I will

0:36:49.760 --> 0:36:52.719
<v Speaker 3>say this prior to you saying that this is why

0:36:52.800 --> 0:36:54.960
<v Speaker 3>I love you, because you and I always think of

0:36:55.040 --> 0:37:00.800
<v Speaker 3>like I did say, Giselle is never ever, ever, ever

0:37:00.920 --> 0:37:04.280
<v Speaker 3>bringing on a man she loves on the show anymore

0:37:04.320 --> 0:37:08.360
<v Speaker 3>after Sherman, I said, after Sherman that was heartbreaking for

0:37:08.480 --> 0:37:11.880
<v Speaker 3>her because I was told behind the scenes Giselle was

0:37:12.040 --> 0:37:16.319
<v Speaker 3>really in love with Sherman like really in love with him,

0:37:16.920 --> 0:37:23.080
<v Speaker 3>and he left allegedly because he said, oh I'm a baby,

0:37:23.080 --> 0:37:25.600
<v Speaker 3>I ain't doing this, it ain't worth it, so he left.

0:37:25.719 --> 0:37:27.880
<v Speaker 3>So I agree with you there. I've always said I

0:37:27.880 --> 0:37:30.560
<v Speaker 3>think it's Ashley's time to go. I really want to

0:37:30.600 --> 0:37:33.319
<v Speaker 3>think about the rest up until you said that, I

0:37:33.400 --> 0:37:36.720
<v Speaker 3>only said let Ashley go, and I said, I only

0:37:36.920 --> 0:37:39.800
<v Speaker 3>think Robin should stay on the show, only ever getting

0:37:39.880 --> 0:37:40.920
<v Speaker 3>every single thing.

0:37:40.840 --> 0:37:41.680
<v Speaker 4>Between her and Wan.

0:37:42.160 --> 0:37:45.920
<v Speaker 3>Wan must film, He must come to the reunion like

0:37:46.000 --> 0:37:47.279
<v Speaker 3>he must give us all day.

0:37:47.280 --> 0:37:48.560
<v Speaker 4>If he's not, Robie can go.

0:37:49.120 --> 0:37:52.960
<v Speaker 3>And the thing with Giselle, who I love, Giselle's gonna

0:37:52.960 --> 0:37:55.359
<v Speaker 3>have to change. Gazelle's going to have to take off

0:37:55.360 --> 0:37:58.840
<v Speaker 3>her producer hat and give us some ulnerable moments. Do

0:37:59.040 --> 0:38:01.799
<v Speaker 3>I think Gisel is in love? That went the house guy?

0:38:02.080 --> 0:38:02.239
<v Speaker 4>No?

0:38:02.640 --> 0:38:05.720
<v Speaker 1>When I saw that, I said, stop playing in my face,

0:38:06.160 --> 0:38:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Please stop playing with me. And what reality we talked

0:38:09.480 --> 0:38:13.319
<v Speaker 1>about this before when it was Heather and Gina hanging out,

0:38:13.520 --> 0:38:17.120
<v Speaker 1>And what reality does that matchup actually happen and actually work?

0:38:17.440 --> 0:38:25.080
<v Speaker 1>And what reality does Gisel Bryant, Giselle Kobe Bryant work

0:38:25.760 --> 0:38:28.000
<v Speaker 1>hang out with this man and be.

0:38:28.040 --> 0:38:30.120
<v Speaker 2>In a serious relationship and love him.

0:38:30.120 --> 0:38:32.120
<v Speaker 1>When Giselle told us a couple of seasons ago what

0:38:32.280 --> 0:38:34.680
<v Speaker 1>she likes, I think she said, a dark skinned man,

0:38:35.480 --> 0:38:38.280
<v Speaker 1>hung like a horse, lots of money.

0:38:39.480 --> 0:38:41.719
<v Speaker 2>That man is not chocolate.

0:38:42.200 --> 0:38:44.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what his Genna Telia looks like, but

0:38:44.960 --> 0:38:47.080
<v Speaker 1>what I can tell you from the looks of it,

0:38:47.080 --> 0:38:49.040
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't look like he has the coin for Giselle.

0:38:49.120 --> 0:38:51.480
<v Speaker 2>And that's no shade to him. He's a young man,

0:38:51.560 --> 0:38:52.920
<v Speaker 2>though he's a you.

0:38:53.120 --> 0:38:55.600
<v Speaker 1>His money isn't long enough for what I think Giselle

0:38:55.840 --> 0:38:58.120
<v Speaker 1>is kind of requiring. Now, Giselle has just gotten to

0:38:58.120 --> 0:38:59.919
<v Speaker 1>the point in her life where she's like, look, I'm

0:39:00.120 --> 0:39:02.279
<v Speaker 1>trying to have some fun. I'm trying to wear my

0:39:02.280 --> 0:39:05.799
<v Speaker 1>whistle from time to time. Okay, that's believable to me,

0:39:06.360 --> 0:39:08.839
<v Speaker 1>but not as a serious contender, like stop playing me

0:39:09.000 --> 0:39:09.279
<v Speaker 1>with that.

0:39:09.719 --> 0:39:10.600
<v Speaker 4>No, that was the thing.

0:39:10.760 --> 0:39:14.120
<v Speaker 3>It was like, stop again. Gizelle likes a dark skinned man,

0:39:14.440 --> 0:39:16.440
<v Speaker 3>she said out her own mouth. And the other thing

0:39:16.560 --> 0:39:20.280
<v Speaker 3>Jasmine said, So that's why Potomac, to me, is in trouble,

0:39:20.360 --> 0:39:24.319
<v Speaker 3>because they're going to have to have truly a real

0:39:24.440 --> 0:39:27.360
<v Speaker 3>sit down about what they're willing to give. And based

0:39:27.440 --> 0:39:30.400
<v Speaker 3>upon that Jasmine is when I would say, as a producer,

0:39:30.840 --> 0:39:31.839
<v Speaker 3>you can stay, you.

0:39:31.760 --> 0:39:32.680
<v Speaker 4>Can go, you can go.

0:39:33.160 --> 0:39:36.160
<v Speaker 3>I think whose job are safe is Candace and Wendy

0:39:36.640 --> 0:39:39.319
<v Speaker 3>because I think Candice and Wendy are willing to give

0:39:39.440 --> 0:39:42.120
<v Speaker 3>everything to the show, and I feel like they want to,

0:39:42.800 --> 0:39:46.399
<v Speaker 3>but they're working with women who want to just have

0:39:46.440 --> 0:39:51.720
<v Speaker 3>one storyline of how can we embarrass you the most?

0:39:52.080 --> 0:39:54.920
<v Speaker 3>And people are over it. So you heard it here

0:39:54.960 --> 0:39:58.600
<v Speaker 3>from Jasmine and Carlos. In order to make Potomac great again,

0:39:58.719 --> 0:40:02.000
<v Speaker 3>Let's just say a lot of changes are going to have.

0:40:02.000 --> 0:40:04.600
<v Speaker 1>To be made in order to make Potomac great again.

0:40:05.200 --> 0:40:07.200
<v Speaker 1>You got to make Potomac real again.

0:40:07.520 --> 0:40:08.359
<v Speaker 4>And there you have it.
