I 13 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: think all of us, you know, the black girls and 14 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,279 Speaker 1: media and you know and reporting, we root so much 15 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 1: for Taylor Rooks as we do a lot of the 16 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: other girls, the Joy Taylor's, the Carrie Champions, the Jamail Hills, 17 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: all of the girls. Especially you know me because I 18 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: am not a sports but I am not a sports reporter. 19 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: I can get a concept of a story in sports 20 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: as it relates to culture and entertainment. But y'all be 21 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: hearing me when I get through, you know what I mean. 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: I do my sports stories on the Breakfast Club here 23 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: on the podcast, I try and sick to what I'm 24 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: good at, but sometimes the world's intertwined, so I dibble 25 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: and I dabble. But those girls are so good. They 26 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 1: know the facts, the numbers. They're hard at work, they're 27 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: at the games, they're traveling or doing all the things. 28 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: But what I love so much about what just happened 29 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: with Taylor Rooks and the fact that she is married. 30 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:35,639 Speaker 1: She announced yesterday via her Instagram that she is married. 31 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: I didn't even know she was engaged. I assumed she 32 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: was dating. She's gorgeous, she's successful, she's young, you know 33 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: what I mean. So of course I assume she was dating. 34 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: But because we had never seen anything or heard anything 35 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: about who she was dating, I did not know she 36 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: was dating serious enough to be engaged and now married. 37 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: So yesterday Taylor Rooks took to her Instagram to post 38 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: photos from her wedding. I would say it was a 39 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: surprise wedding, but baby, it's given. Well, only we were surprised. 40 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: So many other people knew, so she posted the photos 41 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: and she captioned it, what a night This is love 42 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: with the wedding ring emoji. Now in these photos you 43 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: see her and her new hubby under her veil. Then 44 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 1: there's photos of her by herself walking down the aisle. 45 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: There's photos of Taylor Rook's and new hubby. She's holding 46 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:31,519 Speaker 1: up her wedding ring. A diamond okay, it's a diamond. Okay. 47 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: The girl the rocket sitting nice, but she has her 48 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: hand on her hubby's face looks like it's like a 49 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: photo booth picture from after the wedding, from the reception, 50 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: and then there's photos of her and just like the 51 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: people who attend it. And I think that's what's most 52 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: impressive is the fact that not only was it private 53 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: and very intimate, and you know, when you're in the 54 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: public eye, you don't get to not share moments like 55 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: these much because sometimes even if you're trying to keep 56 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: it private, the people around you are so excited for 57 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: you that they want to tell the world. And in boom, 58 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: here you go. Everybody knows you engage, you married, you 59 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: got a man, You gotta this, you gotta that right. 60 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: The guest list was five star, and she still managed 61 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: to be able to keep this wedding private. In attendance, 62 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: there are photos of Mike Rubin, you know, music artist 63 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: Jacques Harlow, Coco Jones, and her newly engaged fiance Donovan Mitchell, 64 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: who's NFL player, Saquon Barkley, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green. The 65 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: people were in the building. Reports say that Taylor Rooks 66 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: was married in New York, but I mean, I don't 67 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: even know how we were confirming these reports because she 68 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: didn't mention where she was married. So it's like, how 69 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: do we even know that? We don't know anything? And 70 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: it is so fire, Oh my god, congratulations and Taylor 71 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: Rooks and her husband.

Different. 167 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 2: Women have something called orgasms, and when women have that, 168 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: it takes a lot out of you. 169 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: I'm training two or three times a day. 170 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 2: I don't got time to be trying to force myself 171 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 2: to work out because I had a you know, orgasmy 172 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: I would rather keep everything in And I feel like, 173 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: to me, I feel like it helps me be more 174 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 2: prepared for the fight. And when you go without you know, sex, 175 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: and I mean you guys are men, it do make 176 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 2: you be a bit more aggressive and you can lift 177 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 2: more weights and you can squat more weight and everything. 178 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: It's the same thing for me. 179 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: That's a lesson to you young boys out there, women too. 180 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: And then hear her talk about this, my first thought 181 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: is is like, how long does cloversas shields have to 182 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: go without sex? Because she's never specified she said just 183 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 1: before a fight, and I'm like, well, how long? And 184 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: how does that work? When you're trying to have a kid, 185 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: miss of your career fights coming up, like it's just 186 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: a lot to balance. I feel for anybody who things 187 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: are growing, you have a lot to balance because y'all 188 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: know we started this podcast and missed of so much 189 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: growing and moving.
