I live 69 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: in Atlanta. But um, I think the best way to 70 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: put it is that I am now like, I guess, 71 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 1: a Georgia peach, but I have an Apple Core. You know, 72 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: My core is Apple Baby all day, every day Brooklyn. 73 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm a big it up wherever I go. So where 74 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:33,559 Speaker 1: do you miss the most? Bacon, egg and cheese? Bacon, 75 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: egg and cheese. And I missed the fact that you 76 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: can always find a Jamaican spot to get some curry 77 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: ox tails extray it. They don't ever have gravy though Jamaicans, 78 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: and they charge you two dollars, tell gravyes, after charge 79 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: you candy dollars for a large and you get beer rice?

Our family, because you know, 82 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,919 Speaker 1: our families all still here. Um. But I like that 83 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: we're in Atlanta now versus Callie because it gives us 84 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more accessibility. I kind of feel like 85 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: we're at this midway point between getting took and then 86 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: accessing accessing l a if we have to.

That is a fact It's 99 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: funny because when I come back now, I feel like 100 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: Brooklyn is almost like unrecognizable. Yeah, gentrification is real. What 101 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: was the first sign that you knew that things were 102 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: taking the turn white?

Let me, let me, 107 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: let me explain something to y'all. Thought. So white people 108 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: claim to be afraid of black people until they got 109 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: to move into black neighborhoods or everything. So where we 110 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,679 Speaker 1: moved to Crown Heights, I'll never forget it. Son. We 111 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: came back from Detroit, which is also placed as got 112 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: a lot of black people should be sucked up. So 113 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: we moved back. I was playing ball. We was broke, right, 114 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: we was broke. We moved back to an apartment.

But with the 226 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: shows that are live, we haven't been live since two 227 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: thousand actually, she was having twenty February. We had our 228 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: last live show in Atlanta. So we'd like to be interacted. 229 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: We'd like to get you actual seats. We'd like it 230 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: to be a different experience than y'all listen to us 231 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: talk whole night, because you can do that typically on 232 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: the podcast. Who've been listening to the season of the podcast. Yeah, 233 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: anybody have a favorite episode so far? Yesterday's what was 234 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: yesterday's Now, I was in paint Chouse. I don't remember, 235 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: oh wo. He was just talking about that Grannie's house. 236 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: House in Grannie's House, that was talking about finances, making 237 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: those decisions. For the embeddment for those of you who 238 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: don't know what the episode was, it's pretty much based 239 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: on the idea that we as a people don't understand 240 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: our value and our property. So for example, you'll have 241 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: a property that's been passed down from generation to generation 242 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,880 Speaker 1: to generation, and most people would be like this house 243 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: don't got no mortgage. We're gonna live in it til 244 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: we die and pass down to our kids. But you 245 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: don't realize that that property is now an asset. So 246 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: if you inherited this house and there's no mortgage, and 247 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: now the houses in Crown Heights for example, and it's 248 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,239 Speaker 1: seven figures, if you sell that property and you use 249 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: the capital from that property to buy multiple properties, now 250 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: you can turn that one asset into multiple assets. And 251 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: rather than thinking about the the mindset of I'm just 252 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: gonna hold onto this for sentimental value, why not use 253 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: that house and create generational wealth. So that's what the 254 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: whole episode was about. Yeah, that was a good one. 255 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: That was a good one. So lots of good things 256 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: happening this season. Deval and I will let you guys 257 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: in on a little secret. I guess we can tell 258 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: them about what we have coming out February. So we've 259 00:17:55,320 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: been working diligently on a book. Yes, so you guys 260 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: hear it here. First, we are aiming for release maybe 261 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: around Valentine's there, So yeah, so we're looking for Valentine's 262 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: they release, and um, what would you say is the 263 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: main overarching topic of the book, because we didn't want 264 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: it to be UM too self healthy. We didn't want 265 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: it to be a how to because you guys, know 266 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: one will say it over and over again. Although we 267 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: don't take it lightly that people look at us and 268 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: feel like we're that hashtag relationship goals. We're just sharing 269 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: our experience with you guys, so people can just take 270 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: what they want from it. What you can relate to, 271 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: you can which you can't, you can't UM, And we 272 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: just want to share a little bit more about our story. 273 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: So I know a lot of people feel like they 274 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: know so much about Val and I and our story, 275 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: but there's some stuff that we've never spoken about publicly 276 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: that we are now putting into this book. So I'll say, 277 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 1: it's a nice recap of a Brooklyn loved story and 278 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: how we evolved over the years. And UM, it's going 279 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 1: to take you from the very beginning up until about 280 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: when we were married and had our first child. So 281 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: we got to leave room for like a book number 282 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 1: two or three or you know, so we're excited for 283 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: that coming up in uh February. Yeah, yeah, So we 284 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: want to get y'all up and out your seats, get 285 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: y'all moving and shaking a little bit. Yes, when I 286 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: spoke to Trible, Triple called me like two days ago. 287 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: Our producer shout out to Triple, I had she I 288 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: heard she had, y'all with the pre show talking and talking, 289 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: you always hear about Triple on the podcast. You got 290 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: to actually meet her in the flesh first. The first 291 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: thing I said when I seen your shirt mad gay, 292 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: She was like, say gay on it. So then the 293 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: reason why I said that is because I want people 294 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 1: to realize that that's podcast Live shows a safe space 295 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,239 Speaker 1: for everybody. We live in the town now where if 296 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: you say the wrong thing or have an opinion, you 297 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,239 Speaker 1: get canceled or you get ridiculed. But we all have 298 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: to start to challenge each other. Right if we all 299 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: think the same way, how can we grow If we're 300 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: all programmed to just believe in one thing, how can 301 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: we have a different person spective and be a better person. 302 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: So the reason why we like to do things this 303 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: way is because we're not experts. I think that we 304 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: can learn from a lot of the people that's out here. 305 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: So we want to invite some of you guys up 306 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 1: here play some games so we can learn some different perspectives. 307 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: But what I ask is that when people give their 308 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: comments or their answers, let's all shower them with love 309 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 1: and respect, no judgment. No judgment is allowed at all. 310 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: I don't care how crazy it sound, because sometimes we 311 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: get some crazy answers. Have y'all listened to listening letters, Yes, sometimes, 312 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,640 Speaker 1: no matter what they say, please give them respect. Absolutely. 313 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: So when I spoke to Triple, I said, she she 314 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: called me and She's like, girl, I'm trying to do 315 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 1: this little game situation. And we have not one single 316 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 1: man that wrote in to be a part of the game, 317 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: not one in New York. So we'll see what it's 318 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: looking like in Philly and DC. But we figured returned 319 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 1: New York into something couple style, all right, So to 320 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: be prepared, let me pull out my cards now because 321 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: I got some some information on here. So pretty much 322 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: we have three couples that we've selected.

She said, no, she said, nobody 648 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 1: did it like you this before. That's how you got 649 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:07,520 Speaker 1: off THET zone. That's how you got off the first zone. 650 00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 1: But he said, sitting on the side of her bed. 651 00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 1: Then we had bad sex, or then we had sex. Okay, 652 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,840 Speaker 1: I said bad sex. They don't sound like that sext 653 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: to me. Can we give all about couples around them? Aploys? 654 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 1: So who was in the lead? Because I feel like 655 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 1: we should have a dance off for the person who 656 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:33,840 Speaker 1: if there's a tie, there's no ties, there's no ties. 657 00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 1: There's no ties to everybody one everybody, So triple, what 658 00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 1: are they getting? Come? Come, Triplet? She just gave him 659 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 1: something that ran away.

So I feel like we have a 677 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,919 Speaker 1: wordless mike like ours that we can probably pass through 678 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 1: to you guys if someone has a question, Oh, trouble, trouble, 679 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 1: there's trouble right there with the mic. All right, So 680 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 1: let's dive in. Anybody got a question, don't be shot. 681 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 1: Don't be shot like anybody, don't be had so much 682 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:24,040 Speaker 1: to say when the couple was up in here, you'll 683 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: be writing in to that at gmail dot com. We 684 00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:49,360 Speaker 1: promise we're not going to judge, y'all. Hello, you know, 685 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 1: help me, help me? Oh god, girl. So I haven't 686 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: been on the dating scene in a minute, you know, 687 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:22,240 Speaker 1: but from what I'm here, it's trash. Yeah, it's trash. 688 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 1: Access pool, oh a pissie pool, time out, time out, 689 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:35,840 Speaker 1: flying in traveling. There's no men in here to to 690 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:40,320 Speaker 1: give their opinion because all the women are saying is trash. 691 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 1: But I can't even argue because they ain't even know 692 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: men in here. So I get it. Act. This is 693 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 1: me and Kay actually talked about this, right. It's funny 694 00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 1: the dynamic in life that happens like throughout ages right. 695 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 1: For example, remember when you were in high school, the 696 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:07,319 Speaker 1: popular girls went after who the older guys, Right, They 697 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,200 Speaker 1: went after the older guys, and then the guys who 698 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:12,480 Speaker 1: are their age, they kind of looked down on them. Right. 699 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,839 Speaker 1: The older guys dragged the popular girl through the mud 700 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: through all that time. Right, the same thing happens in 701 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 1: your twenties. The popular girl in your twenties, what do 702 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,799 Speaker 1: they do? They go after the ball players, the entertainers. 703 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: They want, you know, they want to go on trips 704 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 1: and do all this other stuff to do that is broken, 705 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:32,840 Speaker 1: ain't got no money. He's kind of left on the 706 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:37,320 Speaker 1: side until he builds his resume to be able to 707 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,279 Speaker 1: do the same things. Right, and then when he gets 708 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 1: the chance to do that in his thirties, what does 709 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:46,400 Speaker 1: he do? Goes back to the twenties. And it's a cycle. 710 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 1: It's a perpetuating cycle that's happening because I feel like 711 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people are looking for instant gratification and 712 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:58,840 Speaker 1: not looking to build. K and I built everything together. 713 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:04,920 Speaker 1: I was broke. He didn't have nothing either, and we 714 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,600 Speaker 1: dealt with each other and all of our bullshit and 715 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: trauma together, like seriously. And the rea the reason why 716 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: I say that is because you may think the dating 717 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 1: pool is trash because the guy you're talking to is trash. 718 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,440 Speaker 1: But if we're being honest, we probably would have considered 719 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 1: our situations while we were dating to be trash if 720 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,560 Speaker 1: we listened to everybody else during that time. You know 721 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,640 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I wasn't perfect, She wasn't perfect. We 722 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 1: were trying to figure it out. I just think you 723 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,239 Speaker 1: have to learn how to give people grace and uh 724 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 1: ask yourself, who are you choosing to date? Because if 725 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,040 Speaker 1: you keep dating the same person over and over and 726 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 1: over again, at some point it ain't that person or 727 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 1: those people, is you? You know what I'm saying. And 728 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 1: that's that's men and women. That's not just one thing, 729 00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 1: you know. But I think for us, the advantage that 730 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 1: we had because guy said, we haven't been in this 731 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,239 Speaker 1: dating scene in a long time. But the advantage that 732 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:04,879 Speaker 1: the val and I had is that when we met 733 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:06,920 Speaker 1: and started dating, Like, of course, we knew each other 734 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 1: since elementary school, but when it came down to actually dating, 735 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:12,320 Speaker 1: we didn't do that until college. And we were eighteen 736 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 1: and nineteen years old. We were babies, and we thought 737 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:16,319 Speaker 1: we knew it all. We had it all figured out, 738 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 1: and we thought we were grown and um, I remember 739 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: my mom de Vos mom being like, slow down, who 740 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,640 Speaker 1: were you as a person? Who are you as an individual? Um? 741 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: But the advantage that we had at the time was 742 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:31,040 Speaker 1: that there wasn't much social media. We were young, and 743 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:33,880 Speaker 1: there weren't much egos. I think you have that eighteen 744 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,040 Speaker 1: nineteen twenty year old invincibility where you're just like, well, whatever, 745 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 1: we're gonna do whatever, We're gonna see how it goes. 746 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna see how And we talked about a lot 747 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: of this too in our book that's coming out, because 748 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 1: it was a way for us to really grow together. 749 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: And we came from a place where we were kind 750 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 1: of a learning life at the same time simultaneously and 751 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,719 Speaker 1: at the same time giving each other grace, So we 752 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 1: weren't really we didn't have too many life experiences separately 753 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: or together to really judge each other by. We didn't have, 754 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 1: um a lot of outside noise like, for example, social 755 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: media now and all of the distractions that are out there. 756 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: We really just were organically and authentically growing together almost 757 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 1: as babies. So I think that's the advantage that we 758 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:19,759 Speaker 1: did have, and that I think that's something missing with 759 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:23,080 Speaker 1: this particular generation with dating is because people are showing 760 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 1: up not as themselves but as representatives of who they are. 761 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,919 Speaker 1: And if more people were showing up as their true, 762 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,920 Speaker 1: authentic selves and being honest from jump and being transparent 763 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 1: about what they're looking for about who they are, then 764 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 1: it will be a little bit easier to connect with 765 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:41,440 Speaker 1: someone who genuinely likes you as a person. So we 766 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 1: could put down the facades, we can put down who 767 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,239 Speaker 1: we think this person wants us to be, who we 768 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 1: think society needs us to be, and really connect with 769 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 1: someone without that um. So that's important. I think that's 770 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,520 Speaker 1: what's missing from the generation. So to answer your questions, 771 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: this um, show up as who you are, and your 772 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 1: person is going to find you. It may not be 773 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 1: in your time, it's gonna be in God's time, and 774 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 1: it'll happen. It'll happen. It'll happen. You know you you 775 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: find and ship. But sometimes I get lost just listening 776 00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 1: you talk like you're kind of smart. Sometimes sometimes you 777 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 1: know you. I agree with you, though, Like, don't just 778 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:28,040 Speaker 1: go to one place, go different places, try church, try 779 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,759 Speaker 1: sports ball, go on vacation, don't get stuck in the 780 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: same spot, because if you're finding the same people in 781 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 1: the same spot, then you're going to keep doing the 782 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 1: same thing over and over again. Just travel, travel, Just 783 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 1: do as much as you can to be the best 784 00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:43,760 Speaker 1: version of yourself, and you're gonna find the right person 785 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,160 Speaker 1: when you do that. Yeah, I feel like mutual friends, too, 786 00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 1: is a good way. Like if you have a friend 787 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,480 Speaker 1: that kind of knows a friend that says me, she 788 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 1: might are you someone saying no, no, I was. I 789 00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:59,960 Speaker 1: think it could work potentially if you see that's it's 790 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:05,359 Speaker 1: to get on you. I get like, such a such 791 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:08,719 Speaker 1: would be so cute together. And then yeah, I tried 792 00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:11,640 Speaker 1: that one time. They're calling me, you know what's wrong 793 00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:16,120 Speaker 1: with your nigga, bro? I'm like, what you made? I 794 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 1: thought y'all was nice. You said that happens all the time. 795 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:23,520 Speaker 1: Insist this, but I don't think necessarily playing matchmaker. But 796 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 1: I'm saying, for example, I'm having to cook out at 797 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: my house, a couple of friends get together, a couple 798 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,640 Speaker 1: of friends together, and people organically just kind of hit 799 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 1: it off, and it's like, Okay, if my like minded 800 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:36,000 Speaker 1: groups of friends get together in the same comple space, 801 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 1: then maybe somebody might connect, you know, so not necessarily matchmaker, 802 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 1: but more like that. So good luck to you sis 803 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 1: on your search. Us question, what's up? Brother? I want 804 00:57:53,640 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 1: to know how y'all like everything like constant conversation, like 805 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,200 Speaker 1: no real talk. People think that in order for you 806 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,880 Speaker 1: to have longevity with someone, you just have to have 807 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:15,440 Speaker 1: a soul mate with everything y'all agree on everything, all 808 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 1: your ideologies online. That's not the case. We tend to 809 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,400 Speaker 1: disagree on a lot of things. But what makes us 810 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,520 Speaker 1: work is that I feel safe being open about what 811 00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:27,200 Speaker 1: I need and what I want, and I try to 812 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 1: create a safe space for her to do the same 813 00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 1: thing because what I don't want her to do is 814 00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 1: to ever feel like she has to say what I 815 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 1: want to hear and in order for us to work, 816 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 1: because ultimately actually gets exhausting, and then you're like, man, 817 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 1: I'm tired of doing this, no more.

We're taught. Somebody talk about it a vow 877 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 1: say it again, No understand understand what it's like to 878 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:55,960 Speaker 1: be a black man in this country for for a minute, right. 879 01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 1: You're taught that when you go out in the world, 880 01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 1: you have to be strong. You have to hold your 881 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:06,960 Speaker 1: feelings aside, and you have to keep this facade of strength. 882 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: That's what you're taught from young Like if you just 883 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:11,840 Speaker 1: put a young black man in the room. He doesn't 884 01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 1: come up with that himself. He's been taught that. So 885 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 1: now that he's a man, and that's how you asked, 886 01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 1: you can't say or you got problems, I'm leaving you alone. 887 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 1: We gotta work through that together. That was a large 888 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,120 Speaker 1: part of my problem. I didn't want to be vulnerable. 889 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:25,920 Speaker 1: I had to be tough. I had to be strong. 890 01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,160 Speaker 1: My father taught me that. My father taught me that 891 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 1: because his father, who was in the nave, he taught 892 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:34,080 Speaker 1: him that. You understand what I'm saying. When you get older, 893 01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:35,520 Speaker 1: you start to learn that these are the things that 894 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 1: you can break down. And when you can be vulnerable 895 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:40,120 Speaker 1: with the person that you love, that toughness comes from 896 01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 1: you sharing.

Like he and 898 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:51,720 Speaker 1: I literally best friends. And when you think about the 899 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:55,080 Speaker 1: relationship of a friend, it's a relationship that you generally 900 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 1: have by choice, right, It's not like a family type joint. 901 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 1: And I choose to want to understand him, I choose 902 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:04,480 Speaker 1: to want to respect him. I choose to want to 903 01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:07,640 Speaker 1: not make him happy because I don't think that I 904 01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:09,400 Speaker 1: can make him happy happy. This is something that he 905 01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,640 Speaker 1: has to find within. But however, I can contribute to 906 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:16,080 Speaker 1: making his workload lighter.
