0:00:01.960 --> 0:00:04.160

0:00:04.200 --> 0:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>everything and everybody. You don't know if you don't lie

0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Lauren L. Rosa and this is the latest with Lauren L. Rosa.

0:00:14.800 --> 0:00:19.000
<v Speaker 1>This is your daily dig on all things pop culture, entertainment, news,

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:22.439
<v Speaker 1>and the conversations that shake the room. Baby. Now, every

0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:23.959
<v Speaker 1>now and then I give y'all a little sprinkle of

0:00:23.960 --> 0:00:29.160
<v Speaker 1>an exclusive, but today the exclusive not even exclusive, because

0:00:29.160 --> 0:00:31.840
<v Speaker 1>it's all over the world wide Web. It's all over

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:34.879
<v Speaker 1>Beyonce's Internet. At this point, we ain't even checking it.

0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Behind the scenes of the Grind because I am flabbergascid, y'all.

0:00:38.840 --> 0:00:45.559
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Rooks, broadcaster, media personality, sportscaster, the tailor Rooks. I

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:47.600
<v Speaker 1>think all of us, you know, the black girls and

0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:51.279
<v Speaker 1>media and you know and reporting, we root so much

0:00:51.320 --> 0:00:52.879
<v Speaker 1>for Taylor Rooks as we do a lot of the

0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:56.720
<v Speaker 1>other girls, the Joy Taylor's, the Carrie Champions, the Jamail Hills,

0:00:57.240 --> 0:00:59.720
<v Speaker 1>all of the girls. Especially you know me because I

0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:02.760
<v Speaker 1>am not a sports but I am not a sports reporter.

0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 1>I can get a concept of a story in sports

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:08.679
<v Speaker 1>as it relates to culture and entertainment. But y'all be

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>hearing me when I get through, you know what I mean.

0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:11.720
<v Speaker 1>I do my sports stories on the Breakfast Club here

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:13.959
<v Speaker 1>on the podcast, I try and sick to what I'm

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:16.720
<v Speaker 1>good at, but sometimes the world's intertwined, so I dibble

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:19.280
<v Speaker 1>and I dabble. But those girls are so good. They

0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:22.400
<v Speaker 1>know the facts, the numbers. They're hard at work, they're

0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 1>at the games, they're traveling or doing all the things.

0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:27.959
<v Speaker 1>But what I love so much about what just happened

0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:30.040
<v Speaker 1>with Taylor Rooks and the fact that she is married.

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:35.639
<v Speaker 1>She announced yesterday via her Instagram that she is married.

0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:39.480
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even know she was engaged. I assumed she

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:43.399
<v Speaker 1>was dating. She's gorgeous, she's successful, she's young, you know

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:45.520
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. So of course I assume she was dating.

0:01:46.040 --> 0:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>But because we had never seen anything or heard anything

0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>about who she was dating, I did not know she

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:56.520
<v Speaker 1>was dating serious enough to be engaged and now married.

0:01:56.920 --> 0:02:00.640
<v Speaker 1>So yesterday Taylor Rooks took to her Instagram to post

0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>photos from her wedding. I would say it was a

0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:07.640
<v Speaker 1>surprise wedding, but baby, it's given. Well, only we were surprised.

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:11.000
<v Speaker 1>So many other people knew, so she posted the photos

0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:15.120
<v Speaker 1>and she captioned it, what a night This is love

0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:18.480
<v Speaker 1>with the wedding ring emoji. Now in these photos you

0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:21.520
<v Speaker 1>see her and her new hubby under her veil. Then

0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:23.919
<v Speaker 1>there's photos of her by herself walking down the aisle.

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:27.200
<v Speaker 1>There's photos of Taylor Rook's and new hubby. She's holding

0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:31.519
<v Speaker 1>up her wedding ring. A diamond okay, it's a diamond. Okay.

0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>The girl the rocket sitting nice, but she has her

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 1>hand on her hubby's face looks like it's like a

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.840
<v Speaker 1>photo booth picture from after the wedding, from the reception,

0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:43.959
<v Speaker 1>and then there's photos of her and just like the

0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 1>people who attend it. And I think that's what's most

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 1>impressive is the fact that not only was it private

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>and very intimate, and you know, when you're in the

0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:56.120
<v Speaker 1>public eye, you don't get to not share moments like

0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.600
<v Speaker 1>these much because sometimes even if you're trying to keep

0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:01.080
<v Speaker 1>it private, the people around you are so excited for

0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:03.200
<v Speaker 1>you that they want to tell the world. And in boom,

0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 1>here you go. Everybody knows you engage, you married, you

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:07.400
<v Speaker 1>got a man, You gotta this, you gotta that right.

0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:12.400
<v Speaker 1>The guest list was five star, and she still managed

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 1>to be able to keep this wedding private. In attendance,

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 1>there are photos of Mike Rubin, you know, music artist

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Jacques Harlow, Coco Jones, and her newly engaged fiance Donovan Mitchell,

0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 1>who's NFL player, Saquon Barkley, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green. The

0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:36.440
<v Speaker 1>people were in the building. Reports say that Taylor Rooks

0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:38.400
<v Speaker 1>was married in New York, but I mean, I don't

0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 1>even know how we were confirming these reports because she

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 1>didn't mention where she was married. So it's like, how

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:45.680
<v Speaker 1>do we even know that? We don't know anything? And

0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 1>it is so fire, Oh my god, congratulations and Taylor

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Rooks and her husband. There are little to no details

0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:54.920
<v Speaker 1>known about her husband besides the photos that she posted,

0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:58.040
<v Speaker 1>which I think are also dope. But yeah, it was.

0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:00.720
<v Speaker 1>It was just so fly. I'm gonna the girls that

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I love to see, the career girls, especially at a

0:04:04.600 --> 0:04:08.040
<v Speaker 1>young age, have all of the things, do the family thing,

0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:12.280
<v Speaker 1>have kids, have a husband, be happy in the marriage

0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 1>and actually having it last, but also be able to

0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>also be able to, like you know, adamantly go after

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.600
<v Speaker 1>your career and your goals and establish a life for yourself,

0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.159
<v Speaker 1>you know. And there's nothing wrong with this, right Like,

0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:29.280
<v Speaker 1>there are women who you know, their lives and their

0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 1>careers and their names revolve around the men in their lives,

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:36.120
<v Speaker 1>their husbands, their kids, fathers. I'm not knocking nobody, But

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:38.800
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying is is that my personal preference has

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.720
<v Speaker 1>always been for myself to be like, Look, I'm going

0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 1>to be in love, I'm going to be married, I'm

0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:48.360
<v Speaker 1>going to have children. I'm going to have the big wedding,

0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:52.400
<v Speaker 1>the faerytale wedding. You know. I want that for myself.

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:54.840
<v Speaker 1>And you know, I want my mother and my grandmother

0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:56.800
<v Speaker 1>and my niece and you know, the people I love

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:59.039
<v Speaker 1>to be able to see me be loved correctly. But

0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:01.359
<v Speaker 1>I've always been wor like, Okay, at some point in

0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:05.040
<v Speaker 1>my career there's going to be a conversation about you're

0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:08.120
<v Speaker 1>a woman, so what about family? What about marriage? What

0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:10.640
<v Speaker 1>about this? What about that? And I don't want my

0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:12.919
<v Speaker 1>career and the work that I've worked for to be

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:16.719
<v Speaker 1>tied to my relationship or my husband, not even not

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:19.359
<v Speaker 1>tied too. I don't mind that because me and my

0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:22.440
<v Speaker 1>man so equally yoked. That's what it's always going to

0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 1>be given right, but more so, I don't want that

0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:29.159
<v Speaker 1>to overshadow my work. Every single day I'm working like

0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:32.480
<v Speaker 1>harder to get better at what I do and what

0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:34.839
<v Speaker 1>I do and even what Taylor Rooks does, or you know,

0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Jamel Hill, and you know, all of the women shoot

0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:40.760
<v Speaker 1>shout out the stat baby on Kim and Mason's It

0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Is What It Is. Me and her we've never met

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 1>in person, We've tried to link up, but me and

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:48.120
<v Speaker 1>her have you know, become social media friends and watching

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 1>her navigate her journey over you know, on It Is

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.039
<v Speaker 1>What It Is, while I'm here on Breakfast Club and

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 1>you know what you guys on the latest with Lauren

0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 1>the roads of the podcast has been a journey, and

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.760
<v Speaker 1>we both always you know, say to each other that

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.960
<v Speaker 1>everything's just moving so crazy. So to see the girls

0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.000
<v Speaker 1>have it all and be able to establish it all,

0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 1>but not have everything centered around or the conversation centered

0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:14.279
<v Speaker 1>around your relationship status or what's happening in your womb,

0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:16.480
<v Speaker 1>but more about the hard work that you're putting in,

0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:19.520
<v Speaker 1>the points you're putting on the board, the great interviews

0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:22.280
<v Speaker 1>you're doing, the great content you're putting out, the efficiency

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:25.400
<v Speaker 1>of all those things that matters to me. I can't

0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 1>speak for any of the other women that I just mentioned,

0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:31.080
<v Speaker 1>but that matters a lot to me, a whole lot.

0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.120
<v Speaker 1>So I thought the way that Taylor Rooks went about

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:37.920
<v Speaker 1>this was superfly number one superfly, and I just thought

0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 1>it was dope. I thought it was fired or see her,

0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:43.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, walk down the aisle and celebrate and do

0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:46.880
<v Speaker 1>all these things. And we had no idea it was happening.

0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:49.320
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't nothing little about this wedding. Baby, this

0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:52.640
<v Speaker 1>was big Tailor Rooks, big wedding. Okay, guests, LIS's crazy

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.839
<v Speaker 1>set up. All the wedding looked amazing. It looked literally

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.000
<v Speaker 1>like a fair tale wedding. She looked beautiful as well.

0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 1>So congratulations, this sist. We see you girl. You did that?

0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:05.680
<v Speaker 1>You ate that? Yes? Okay? Putting it on the Pinterest board.

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Not in other news today, we having a conversation about

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 1>women in sports. Look at me trying to be you know,

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 1>all in the women in sports conversation. Clarissa Shields will

0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:18.680
<v Speaker 1>be fighting this weekend in Detroit. She's fighting Lonnie Daniels

0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:23.280
<v Speaker 1>and Clarissa Shields is she's been. I met her at

0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.480
<v Speaker 1>the Breakfast Club when she came and we interviewed her

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:28.480
<v Speaker 1>my first time. I'm only interviewer, was my first time

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 1>interviewing her, was not her first time here. But then

0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:33.680
<v Speaker 1>she also came back to the Breakfast Club again, which

0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:37.240
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't in the interview for, but she talked about

0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 1>wanting to be a mom in both of those interviews

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:41.960
<v Speaker 1>and what that looked like. You know, we're having a

0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:46.640
<v Speaker 1>conversation about women with very demanding and big careers being

0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:49.040
<v Speaker 1>able to go on and do all of the things right.

0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>I definitely think of Clarissa because I've been watching her

0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:55.440
<v Speaker 1>journey since meeting her here on the Breakfast Club when

0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:58.000
<v Speaker 1>she was promoting her movie The Fire Inside that came

0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 1>out on Christmas of twenty twenty four, which starts Ryan

0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Destiny and it's the story of Clarisa Shield's life. One

0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:06.640
<v Speaker 1>of the things I was thinking about when I was

0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:10.480
<v Speaker 1>talking to her was just her sport is so physical,

0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:13.960
<v Speaker 1>and being able to have a kid and establish a

0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 1>family and all those things also requires a lot of

0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 1>your physical as well, So I've always wondered what that

0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:20.720
<v Speaker 1>exerience was gonna be like for her. Like, for instance,

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Clarisa Shields was on the Pivot which is you know

0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:26.760
<v Speaker 1>the show with Ryan Clark all the guys, and she

0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:29.160
<v Speaker 1>talks about not even being able to have sex before

0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the fight because of the way that an orgasm affects

0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:33.960
<v Speaker 1>a woman versus a band. Let's take a listen. When

0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:36.920
<v Speaker 1>it comes to sex, right, men and women look at it. Different.

0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Women have something called orgasms, and when women have that,

0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:42.440
<v Speaker 2>it takes a lot out of you.

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm training two or three times a day.

0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:47.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't got time to be trying to force myself

0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:50.160
<v Speaker 2>to work out because I had a you know, orgasmy

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 2>I would rather keep everything in And I feel like,

0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 2>to me, I feel like it helps me be more

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:59.120
<v Speaker 2>prepared for the fight. And when you go without you know, sex,

0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:01.400
<v Speaker 2>and I mean you guys are men, it do make

0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:04.560
<v Speaker 2>you be a bit more aggressive and you can lift

0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.640
<v Speaker 2>more weights and you can squat more weight and everything.

0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:09.240
<v Speaker 1>It's the same thing for me.

0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:12.520
<v Speaker 2>That's a lesson to you young boys out there, women too.

0:09:12.800 --> 0:09:14.720
<v Speaker 1>And then hear her talk about this, my first thought

0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.520
<v Speaker 1>is is like, how long does cloversas shields have to

0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 1>go without sex? Because she's never specified she said just

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.560
<v Speaker 1>before a fight, and I'm like, well, how long? And

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:26.040
<v Speaker 1>how does that work? When you're trying to have a kid,

0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:30.600
<v Speaker 1>miss of your career fights coming up, like it's just

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:33.679
<v Speaker 1>a lot to balance. I feel for anybody who things

0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:35.559
<v Speaker 1>are growing, you have a lot to balance because y'all

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.520
<v Speaker 1>know we started this podcast and missed of so much

0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:40.800
<v Speaker 1>growing and moving. For me, the Latest with Lorna Rosa

0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.480
<v Speaker 1>has been not just a podcast and entertainment news and

0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:46.040
<v Speaker 1>training topics, but you guys have grown with me through

0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:49.080
<v Speaker 1>a journey of all of the things since meeting me

0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:52.080
<v Speaker 1>on the Breakfast Club, all of my low riders here.

0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:54.920
<v Speaker 1>So my soft spot for women in the Spotlight who

0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:57.280
<v Speaker 1>are figuring all this stuff out is like no other

0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:00.480
<v Speaker 1>because I'm new here. Spotlight is to I know, nowhere

0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:02.719
<v Speaker 1>near Clarissa and her like you know what I mean,

0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Like so I can't imagine, is what I'm saying. And

0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:09.280
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of people right now, unfairly are

0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:13.160
<v Speaker 1>having a conversation about distraction with Clarissa. I think a

0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:16.080
<v Speaker 1>lot of people right now are having a conversation about

0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 1>women in any industry and across industries and what they're

0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:20.319
<v Speaker 1>able to do and what they're able to balance and

0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:23.760
<v Speaker 1>what they're able to not balance. And this episode, you know,

0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>when I was putting it together, and I was thinking

0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.160
<v Speaker 1>about what we could do, you know, an extensions to

0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.240
<v Speaker 1>everything that was trending today. The first thing I thought

0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:33.240
<v Speaker 1>about is men. The girls is having it all. Okay,

0:10:33.679 --> 0:10:36.080
<v Speaker 1>they got their men by their side, they got the

0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:39.800
<v Speaker 1>business deals popping. Clarissa is dropping music and she previewed

0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:42.440
<v Speaker 1>it last night in Detroit. Let's take a listen to

0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:45.040
<v Speaker 1>is really short, but we got a snippet of one

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:48.040
<v Speaker 1>of her songs. Okay, what's up?

0:10:48.520 --> 0:10:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Some people say I'm a killer?

0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh dad, how fit the shots to the lift? Ooh?

0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Her man want to take me in? And then I

0:10:55.960 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>call him? What's the name? And baby? The girls is

0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:06.640
<v Speaker 1>coming for all of it, all of it. So with

0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:08.280
<v Speaker 1>this being said, I want to take y'all to the

0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:13.920
<v Speaker 1>streets outside. We outside, we outside. Ode every other page

0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:19.320
<v Speaker 1>because another thing that went down yesterday in the midst

0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 1>of the conversation of the girls having it all, people

0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:28.400
<v Speaker 1>were so sad that Taylor Rooks popped out Mary like,

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:31.080
<v Speaker 1>I know the men be on the girls with the

0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:35.600
<v Speaker 1>things going on, but by b where they said? Somebody

0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:38.600
<v Speaker 1>said El Brothers. Media on X said, not only did

0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:41.320
<v Speaker 1>Klay Thompson pull Magde Stallion but a light skin and

0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:45.000
<v Speaker 1>word with waves just married Taylor Rooks. We up, it's

0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.600
<v Speaker 1>our time. Baby. Twenty twenty five is the year of

0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:51.360
<v Speaker 1>the Paige Brotherhood. Laugh out loud. The light skins is outside,

0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:55.800
<v Speaker 1>That's what it's giving. A Corosiate kid said, we lost

0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Coco Jones, Meg and Taylor Rooks all in a two

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:03.439
<v Speaker 1>month spin with a sad face emoji. Shout out to

0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 1>Kevkoke six on X. Let's send him some love, y'all.

0:12:07.640 --> 0:12:09.760
<v Speaker 1>He tweeted, and he said, I just opened up IG

0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:12.840
<v Speaker 1>and saw Taylor Rooks got married. Please respect my privacy

0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:16.760
<v Speaker 1>at this time because these were the baths, these were

0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.200
<v Speaker 1>the bays of the sports industry. Corusa Shields gets it.

0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Rooks gets it. I understand, But I think that's

0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.360
<v Speaker 1>crazy too. I wrote this line down when I was

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>prepping for this episode. I really think it's crazy how

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:34.280
<v Speaker 1>big the conversation gets around women who choose to have

0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:36.559
<v Speaker 1>it all this. Serena Williams went through this too when

0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>she decided to have her baby, her daughter, her first

0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:43.360
<v Speaker 1>daughter with her husband Alexis and Venus. Williams announced her

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:47.480
<v Speaker 1>engagement at the same time that SYS made history at

0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.559
<v Speaker 1>forty five years old, Venus Williams became the second oldest

0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:54.079
<v Speaker 1>woman to win a tour level match, according to ESPN.

0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.520
<v Speaker 1>She took this from a woman who was the oldest

0:12:57.720 --> 0:13:00.320
<v Speaker 1>woman at the time in two thousand and four, she

0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:04.520
<v Speaker 1>was aged forty seven who won Wimbledon. I say that

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:08.000
<v Speaker 1>to say, guess what headline lasted longer out of the too.

0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:12.440
<v Speaker 1>Venus Williams announces she is engaged people being so surprised

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:14.199
<v Speaker 1>to see women have all of the things. When you're

0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:18.319
<v Speaker 1>successful in your career is loud naomio osaka. People give

0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:20.439
<v Speaker 1>it to her really, really hard whenever she doesn't win

0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:24.440
<v Speaker 1>or doesn't perform at two hundred percent. I've even seen

0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 1>people openly say, you know, online, she shouldn't have had

0:13:27.760 --> 0:13:30.200
<v Speaker 1>a kid at the height of her career. When the

0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:32.080
<v Speaker 1>girls do finally get to have all the things, the

0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:35.160
<v Speaker 1>way that we have conversations about them, it's so different

0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:38.040
<v Speaker 1>than how we have it about men, completely different. And

0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:40.840
<v Speaker 1>I get it. Babies don't come out of men's bodies.

0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:43.439
<v Speaker 1>I get it. You know, women and men have different

0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.320
<v Speaker 1>roles in marriages, and how do you know the marriages

0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:48.640
<v Speaker 1>change what they're able to do outside of the home,

0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:52.520
<v Speaker 1>and you know just I understand the double standards, but

0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I do feel like this is the era of the

0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:56.400
<v Speaker 1>women being able to stand next to a partner who

0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:58.360
<v Speaker 1>understands our power. I was going to say, take back

0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:00.640
<v Speaker 1>our power, but it's not even that standing next to

0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:03.000
<v Speaker 1>the right person who understands your power so that you

0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:06.400
<v Speaker 1>can have all things because the balance that you're gonna

0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:10.080
<v Speaker 1>need to learn both mentally and physically, that partner sitting

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:14.120
<v Speaker 1>next to you, baby, ithing, it ain't nothing but a thing.

0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:17.920
<v Speaker 1>So shout out to all the ladies. For some reason,

0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.240
<v Speaker 1>we focus mostly on women in sports today, not even

0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:23.760
<v Speaker 1>on purpose, but yes, shout out to the ladies having

0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:26.200
<v Speaker 1>all of the things. At the end of the day,

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:28.440
<v Speaker 1>there's always a lot to talk about, and I appreciate

0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:30.920
<v Speaker 1>you guys being right here with me every episode to

0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:33.560
<v Speaker 1>talk about it. My lowriders. I will see you guys

0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 1>in my next episode.
