Speaker 1: not easy work. So we hope you like it. Okay,
Speaker 1: because we over here working hard. This is over here sweat. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: I had to get out of bed and I had
Speaker 1: to drive to Robin's house. Okay, we are at been
Speaker 1: Dixon's new palatial estate. Yes, I mean, oh that I
Speaker 1: mean it's very nice. Yes, yes, I like it. It's
Speaker 1: nice and comfortable and I have a whole lot of
Speaker 1: decorating and furnishing to do. So if anybody wants to
Speaker 1: send me something, yes, yes, send Robin something because she
Speaker 1: needs a whole lot of furniture, and furniture is expensive,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, expensive, and then the lead time on
Speaker 1: it is crazy, and then the delivery is crazy and
Speaker 1: fraid and it's insane. Listen, it's so insane. But I
Speaker 1: mean it's the cost of life. Yes, okay, So, at
Speaker 1: per usual, we're gonna give our reasonably shady moment of
Speaker 1: the week. Did you have one? Oh? Shoot, okay, so
Speaker 1: why do you think about it? I actually have too.
Speaker 1: So you know, the kids started school and every time
Speaker 1: this happens to me every year because I always forget.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like when you have a baby and
Speaker 1: it's horrible, but then you forget, so you get pregnant again. Okay.
Speaker 1: It's called the car line at school. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: is the shadiest, most horrible thing that mothers and whoever
Speaker 1: pick up these kids have to go through. You probably
Speaker 1: try to be the first one, don't you. I don't
Speaker 1: actually try to time it so that it's done. And
Speaker 1: I catched the tail end of it. Okay. So for
Speaker 1: those of you who don't have kids or don't understand
Speaker 1: the car line, it is, you're sitting there in your
Speaker 1: car waiting for your kids to come out, and the
Speaker 1: line is the longest thing you've ever seen. And it's
Speaker 1: not like your kid can come to your like can
Speaker 1: bust out to school and just come to your car.
Speaker 1: You gotta wait to you like inch up and you're
Speaker 1: at the front, up all right, and you're at the front,
Speaker 1: and then finally they can come if they do come
Speaker 1: to your car. Because my kids in high school now
Speaker 1: to get yelled at my teachers because it's a hazard. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I hate the car line and cannot wait for it
Speaker 1: to be out of my life. The car line is horrible.
Speaker 1: Um gosh, and you just now, I um, you triggered
Speaker 1: my my shady moment um. It actually goes back a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. So I moved and I posted that
Speaker 1: I moved, and the next somebody called my children's school
Speaker 1: the front office and told them, hey, I think they
Speaker 1: moved and you need to find out where they moved to.
Speaker 1: So who was that person? Who is that somebody that
Speaker 1: they're a hater? Like? Really business? Yes? Mine your business.
Speaker 1: So the person in the front office or whoever, they
Speaker 1: instead of just calling me because you know they you know,
Speaker 1: they can just look up my kids records and say, oh,
Speaker 1: let me call the parents. They called my former real
Speaker 1: estate agent that helped me get you know, the houses
Speaker 1: where we live and asked him do you know if
Speaker 1: Robin and Wan Dixon still live in their house? And
Speaker 1: so he emailed me the email or she she emailed
Speaker 1: and called him. So he forwarded me the email. This
Speaker 1: is horrible and he didn't know because I was I
Speaker 1: didn't I wasn't using him. I used a different real
Speaker 1: estate and he didn't know what was going on. So
Speaker 1: I called and I said, this is where I and Dixon.
Speaker 1: The woman that you were snooping around trying to find
Speaker 1: out information on um if you need to know something
Speaker 1: about me in my life called me please Yes, lady.
Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy? I was like so angry, Like why
Speaker 1: do you need to snoop around? Is it almost like
Speaker 1: you were trying to catch me in a lie? Right,
Speaker 1: Like why not just call me and say, hey, we
Speaker 1: got this to have been in information just trying to
Speaker 1: check and see you know, I wouldn't even think to
Speaker 1: go around you and call a real estate agent adult
Speaker 1: if you move, Like, why don't you just call you?
Speaker 1: Like you literally had to maybe like well, you know
Speaker 1: how when um, well, your kids are in private school.
Speaker 1: So when you're in public school, like you have to
Speaker 1: send them, you know, your least agreement or your more
Speaker 1: your deed or something. So he must have been on
Speaker 1: the least agreement. So they had to pull that document
Speaker 1: up right, So when they were doing just like looking
Speaker 1: at you know, here's the foul okay, parent name, parent number,
Speaker 1: parent email. I was, I was, I was through. I
Speaker 1: was so angry. What what county is this? Howard County?
Speaker 1: They don't play up out their schools because they have
Speaker 1: a really good school system. Today. Wanted to make sure
Speaker 1: and my key was in the right school and they weren't.
Speaker 1: I understand, but y'all are wrong for snooping around. Just
Speaker 1: call the parents. Just call the parents. And it's not
Speaker 1: like Robin can like fake where she lives. We're on TV,
Speaker 1: like it's actually it is what it is, like come
Speaker 1: on now and and trust me, my kids wouldn't meet
Speaker 1: you fake where I lived. Secretly, Robin was trying to lie,
Speaker 1: but I was like I can't know. I was like, guys,
Speaker 1: I can't lie, Like, there's no way I can get
Speaker 1: away with that because I am on TV. So whatever.
Speaker 1: So anyway, they hate their new school. Oh well, Corey
Speaker 1: hates it, Okay, Carter's adjusting. Carter's all right, Corey's like,
Speaker 1: you know, he misses his friends. Yes, he's in because
Speaker 1: he's yes, So he misses his friends and he just
Speaker 1: he hates it. But you know, hey, it's either going
Speaker 1: to be a really long school year or he'll find
Speaker 1: some friends and he'll like it. Yeah, I'm figuring he'll
Speaker 1: figure kids. The kids are resilient and they typically figure
Speaker 1: it out. They are. But I understand hating to school.
Speaker 1: I've been there before. All right. So we have so
Speaker 1: many hot topics to talk about. Okay, so there's this
Speaker 1: one particular thing that I didn't want to talk about,
Speaker 1: but I do. I feel like, you know, we do
Speaker 1: have to talk about it because it's about people that
Speaker 1: I love, called the Carters, Jay Z and Beyonce. We
Speaker 1: love them, best friends. There are friends. I know. I'm
Speaker 1: so mad at them because I didn't get the invite
Speaker 1: for the trip for the forties birthday party. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: on the boat and we're still looking at pictures. I
Speaker 1: don't confus, very confused. But she's my Virgal sister. I
Speaker 1: don't understand anyway. Oh, by the way, is still Virgal Nations?
Speaker 1: Still still Virgal season out here? Okay? Okay, So they
Speaker 1: did that collaboration with Tiffany's right, and I wasn't we
Speaker 1: weren't going to discuss it because it's kind of like
Speaker 1: it caused like a fury of controversy and discussion. And
Speaker 1: you know, Beyonce has she hasn't come out and said anything,
Speaker 1: but it's we parted that she is feeling differently about
Speaker 1: doing it than than she was before they did it. Um,
Speaker 1: so here's my take, right, Okay, So she got to
Speaker 1: wear the diamond that has not been worn by a
Speaker 1: a black woman and be it's the diamond has been
Speaker 1: around for like over a hundred years. Okay, So something's
Speaker 1: been around for over a hundred years and ain't no
Speaker 1: black person been able to get their hands on it.
Speaker 1: I'm of the place and of the thought process. F you.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to participate. I don't want
Speaker 1: to be invited to the barbecue. I don't want to
Speaker 1: touch the diamond. Y'all can have it. And if you're
Speaker 1: Beyonce and you're the baddest bitch walking, why do you
Speaker 1: need that? You know what I mean? Well, I don't
Speaker 1: know that it's about the diamond. I think it might
Speaker 1: be about the big fat check that was probably written
Speaker 1: to that. Okay, but if you're if y'all, if you
Speaker 1: and your husband are both billionaires, you don't need that check. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they want to stay billy in there, I think, I
Speaker 1: think honestly, like I know, we say, they're like, oh, well,
Speaker 1: you're a billionaire, what do you need more money for?
Speaker 1: Because rich people their ego is like it's it's fueled
Speaker 1: by money, right, And you know, they want to be
Speaker 1: the riches. They want to be on that list. They
Speaker 1: want to keep they don't they can't. They can't be
Speaker 1: knocked off the list. They all the list. Sorry, they
Speaker 1: Tiffany wrote them a big fast we know that and
Speaker 1: they said chitching cash it. So do you think that
Speaker 1: if they knew about the backstory of these diamonds prior
Speaker 1: to they wouldn't have done it? Possibly? Okay, all right, possibly, okay,
Speaker 1: I agree with that. Possibly I agree with that because
Speaker 1: I feel like they're very conscious and particular about the
Speaker 1: moves they make. Well, look, Tiffany don't care if anyone's
Speaker 1: upset because those commercials run all the time. Yes they do.
Speaker 1: And let me just say this, I okay, a little
Speaker 1: part of me felt like they don't need Tiffany's Tiffany
Speaker 1: needs them. So they could have bowed out, they could
Speaker 1: have walked away. I'm telling you that check, that check,
Speaker 1: that check was bad because um, flat tummy time t
Speaker 1: whatever they keep trying to they keep harassing me, and
Speaker 1: I feel like I don't need them. Check is not
Speaker 1: that good. If the check was good, then you would
Speaker 1: do it. Listen, flat tummy t stop stop email like
Speaker 1: that or whatever the hell? Y'all off anyway? Like like
Speaker 1: can you post posts for two dollars? Like something's crazy?
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm exaggerating, but I'm like kick rocks, rocks,
Speaker 1: kick rocks. All right. I just want to give you
Speaker 1: all an example. Now. Listen, Um, we are done obviously
Speaker 1: with the Olympics. But the aftermath of it all is,
Speaker 1: you know, someone Biles and those other ladies went to court. Now,
Speaker 1: they didn't go to court. I don't really understand what
Speaker 1: they did. They went Congress, They went to Congress, and
Speaker 1: they were complaining, not complaining, but they gave a deposition
Speaker 1: on what happened to them as it really asist man
Speaker 1: that got a hundred and fifty years for molesting them
Speaker 1: and their beef. Their issue is when we went to
Speaker 1: the FBI, y'all didn't game. That's crazy, that is insane.
Speaker 1: That is insane. The FBI did not feel like what
Speaker 1: they were saying was important enough to investigate or Okay,
Speaker 1: they did their little bit of investigation and whatever response
Speaker 1: they got the FB. I was like, okay, I think
Speaker 1: the FBI did not want to interfere because then would
Speaker 1: we have an Olympic gymnast team. No, we would not.
Speaker 1: Like they probably would have had to suspend the ladies
Speaker 1: or doing I don't know. They just didn't They didn't
Speaker 1: do their job. No, that's horrible. That's horrible, and that
Speaker 1: they're here to do stuff like that. If there's a job, right,
Speaker 1: if there's anyone that's going to find out the root
Speaker 1: of the problem or what's going on, it's the FBI.
Speaker 1: Like that, that's insane. But I think it's just it
Speaker 1: shows you a lot. There's probably a lot of stuff
Speaker 1: that goes on that the FBI is aware of and
Speaker 1: they choose not to investigate, which is scar Yeah, it's very,
Speaker 1: very scary, and it makes you feel it makes you
Speaker 1: feel I'm sure that you're just totally helpless, that who's
Speaker 1: going to listen to you, who's going to have your back? Um?
Speaker 1: And these were like fourteen fifteen year old girls. It's horrible,
Speaker 1: that's horrible. I felt so bad, like it was like
Speaker 1: you can and then it almost I felt like watching
Speaker 1: someone bios talk. I almost felt like, Okay, I even
Speaker 1: understand her more now with the Olympics and her you know,
Speaker 1: not wanting to compete, like she probably just has so
Speaker 1: many emotions and anxiety and just she's just been so scarred.
Speaker 1: And it's like, shame on you for allowing these adults
Speaker 1: to scar these children, because you're scarring them for life. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: no question about it, Absolutely no question. I really feel
Speaker 1: bad with those girls. And guess what they have. They
Speaker 1: have displayed so much courage, way more than balancing on
Speaker 1: the balance being like this, I'm very happy that they
Speaker 1: stepped forward because they're helping the girls coming behind them exactly,
Speaker 1: They're helping the girls coming behind them, and then they're
Speaker 1: just helping other, you know, girls or people with similar
Speaker 1: types of experiences, whether it's in you know, other sports
Speaker 1: or other industries, to you know, to pay more attention
Speaker 1: to stuff and to say, Okay, this actually is really real.
Speaker 1: I guess they probably felt like, oh, you know, if
Speaker 1: they're if they're going to say, oh, the doctor is
Speaker 1: touching me inappropriately in the fos where we're like, oh,
Speaker 1: but the doctor's just doing his job, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. Like but no, it's like, no, you need
Speaker 1: to look farther into this, yes, not stuff. So I
Speaker 1: was I got my um right after I got married.
Speaker 1: I my gallbladder damn near exploded, right, so I had
Speaker 1: to go to the doctor. Was that like most excruciating
Speaker 1: pain ever? I hear that, It's like really really really painful.
Speaker 1: It's hard, like it was. Pain was so bad I
Speaker 1: passed out. Wow, woke up in the hospital. So I
Speaker 1: got you know, it's kind of like an emergency surgery.
Speaker 1: I got my gallbladder removed. And I remember the hospital
Speaker 1: that I was in, actually in Baltimore, is a teaching hospital,
Speaker 1: so they have the doctors come in and they have
Speaker 1: like the new residents with the doctor to like check
Speaker 1: out the patients. So you know, I was. I had
Speaker 1: just got my hair was all done in a in
Speaker 1: an orange yellow color, and I was looking cute. I
Speaker 1: had a hand and everything, your hair is yellow. I
Speaker 1: don't know that. I don't know this is Look, there's
Speaker 1: a point of this story where they are okay. So
Speaker 1: in the middle, so I was recuperating. I'm half on drugs.
Speaker 1: I remember I told them all to go home, right
Speaker 1: because he had been staying in the hospital with me,
Speaker 1: and one of the interns residents came back into the
Speaker 1: room and he was like, I need to check your
Speaker 1: your scars or whatever, and he was kind of filling
Speaker 1: me up, like my boobs, and I was like, the
Speaker 1: way he was touching me, I remember, it wasn't I
Speaker 1: didn't feel right about it, and I was pissed. So um,
Speaker 1: the next day I asked to see the head doctor
Speaker 1: and I told on that guy and um, I never
Speaker 1: saw him again, and I was like, I do not
Speaker 1: want that guy in my room anymore. But I was
Speaker 1: like livid, My gosh, and imagine if he's a doctor today. Yes,
Speaker 1: Like there's always creepy people out there. If you're ever,
Speaker 1: if somebody's ever in the hospital or just in an
Speaker 1: In a situation in which you can be compromised, you
Speaker 1: need to have somebody with you. Yeah. Wow, that's horrible, scary.
Speaker 1: That's that's why I honestly don't have male doctors like
Speaker 1: that are like like my my, my, my O B
Speaker 1: G y N is a female. Yes, my um primary
Speaker 1: care doctor is a female. Like you know, no offense
Speaker 1: to male doctors. But but now, I mean it is
Speaker 1: what it is, y'all suck anyway, moving on, Okay, So
Speaker 1: I'm so excited because it's almost the holidays and Broadway
Speaker 1: is bad, so like just f y, I always take
Speaker 1: my kids around the holidays to see some play on Broadway,
Speaker 1: musical something that's like our thing. It's our tradition, and
Speaker 1: we didn't get to do it in because of the pandemic.
Speaker 1: But now Broadways back and they've like opened up in
Speaker 1: like full throttle, like they had what the Lion King
Speaker 1: I think um on Hamilton's. So I'm so super excited.
Speaker 1: That is so exciting. And I must say that I
Speaker 1: have never been to a play on Broadway. Robin No, No,
Speaker 1: I think I did go to one, damn it, and
Speaker 1: I can't remember what it was. What do you mean
Speaker 1: it was a long time ago. Okay, so Robin, you
Speaker 1: didn't it might have been lion King. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: the word memory is so bad. Okay, so you didn't
Speaker 1: go to a play on Broadway, but you were a
Speaker 1: video home. Sure, I was, And I know that you
Speaker 1: always like to tell people that you were a video home.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm proud. I'm proud of my one shining moment.
Speaker 1: Would you like to tell the world about it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: So so actually those are some of the questions that
Speaker 1: I got. Was like, you know, tell us about your
Speaker 1: story about being a video home because we shared um
Speaker 1: on a recent episode of the House as of Potomac
Speaker 1: that you know, well, we were auditioning for Candice's video
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm not a new it is, I'm
Speaker 1: true to this, I've been here video ho So anyway, um,
Speaker 1: that opportunity came about because then we kind of follow me,
Speaker 1: my brothers, sons, baby Mama's boyfriend. I'm lost exactly. Cousin
Speaker 1: was successful music video director Chris Robinson. He has he
Speaker 1: directed tons and tons of tons of great music videos.
Speaker 1: Yes we know Chris Robinson. Yes, Chris, so we I
Speaker 1: was at a birthday party for my nephew and he
Speaker 1: was there and later that week, like they called, my
Speaker 1: brother's son's mother called and was like, hey, Chris, Chris
Speaker 1: is directing the video in l A Puffy Do you
Speaker 1: want to do? You want to go? And Chris, he
Speaker 1: wants to know if you want to be in it?
Speaker 1: And I was like, in a video for shot, Puffy
Speaker 1: says bad boy days. Yes, this is when he remember
Speaker 1: he went to jail for the gun chars Yes, Puff.
Speaker 1: This was his first song and video after he got
Speaker 1: out of jail. This is a big deal. This is
Speaker 1: a comeback, huge, huge, And I was like so confused.
Speaker 1: I was like me, why, huh what? No? Like oh,
Speaker 1: like you you got the wrong person right because you
Speaker 1: you didn't You hadn't perfected your work game at that point. No,
Speaker 1: I mean they weren't working back then. It was more
Speaker 1: you know, I don't. I don't know. That just wasn't
Speaker 1: on my radar. So I told one. I was like,
Speaker 1: this is so crazy. But someone, you know, Chris Robinson
Speaker 1: asked me being a Puffy video and I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: not doing that. Why would he ask me? And he
Speaker 1: was like you should do that. That sounds amazing. I
Speaker 1: was like actually really surprised that he encouraged me to
Speaker 1: do that, and thinking back, I'm like, maybe he was
Speaker 1: just trying to get me out of town so he
Speaker 1: could like No, he was not ribbing. He wanted you
Speaker 1: to fulfill your dreams as a video hole. That is
Speaker 1: what he wanted. Yeah, fine, all right, I'll take that.
Speaker 1: But but but I was just so surprised that he
Speaker 1: was like excited about that opportunity for me and encouraged
Speaker 1: me to come. So I went. I flew all the
Speaker 1: way from Maryland to lt They paid for my flight,
Speaker 1: they paid for my hotel okay, budget, they paid me
Speaker 1: seven hundred dollars budget, okay, And it was like such
Speaker 1: a cool experience. It was on the Universal Studio lot
Speaker 1: where they filmed Desperate Housewives and I love desperseive Like
Speaker 1: I don't know if a justper Housewives are before this
Speaker 1: video or after, but like I recognized, like, oh, this
Speaker 1: is a Desperate Housewives step. Super cool. And it was
Speaker 1: all these celebrities there, Shack Ice Cube, Ben Stiller, like
Speaker 1: it was a big deal because it was like bad
Speaker 1: boyfriend life, He's coming back to the neighborhood. And I
Speaker 1: mean it was a long day. You know, sun up
Speaker 1: to sundown. It was all these different scenes. I was
Speaker 1: literally in like four different scenes. But when you watch
Speaker 1: the video, you see me for like point to five seconds.
Speaker 1: But doesn't matter, Robin, you made it. It doesn't You
Speaker 1: can see me, you can pause and I can pause
Speaker 1: it and I say, there, I am in one of
Speaker 1: the funny parts. So we were, um, like, I was
Speaker 1: in a jacuzi with like three other girls on the
Speaker 1: front yard and it's like a party outside in the
Speaker 1: front yard. And then so standing outside of the jacuzi,
Speaker 1: it was in above ground jakuzi. Um did they still
Speaker 1: have what what does it means? Like a big tub?
Speaker 1: You mean like a big Yeah, literally, that's what it
Speaker 1: seemed like. It sucking above but think of a jacuzi.
Speaker 1: But it's above sounds a little unsanitary, it's a little weird.
Speaker 1: They backed up. So then there at least like these
Speaker 1: rapper guys like I don't remember their names, but it
Speaker 1: was like all these bad boy artists and stuff. So
Speaker 1: they're like standing around the jacuzi and I just remember
Speaker 1: the guy like, okay, when they started the camera, he
Speaker 1: had he had a glass of like wine. He had
Speaker 1: a wine glass or something He's like, I'm I'm gonna
Speaker 1: put the water all over your chest? Did he? I
Speaker 1: was like, nah, you could do that to her, like
Speaker 1: sad not me, not me. And it's so funny because
Speaker 1: I'm literally like, you know, my my, I'm like, oh my,
Speaker 1: same thing I say all the time. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: my parents gonna watch this video and he won't see me, like,
Speaker 1: you know, put put pushing my boobs outlet the man
Speaker 1: poured the water all on my chest. I was like,
Speaker 1: even do it to them? And so those other girls,
Speaker 1: they was just moving a little booby. And that's why
Speaker 1: they were in the video longer than you because you
Speaker 1: were in zero point too, and they was like in
Speaker 1: it for like three minutes. They were like I'm going
Speaker 1: to do whatever it takes, and I was like, hell no,
Speaker 1: you better not likely touch with me. I mean, it
Speaker 1: was really cool. I have a lot of pictures. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna probably share them on my page and just show
Speaker 1: all the little pictures. But it was it was just
Speaker 1: it was such a cool and fun experience. Um and
Speaker 1: that video was like bomb Like when you watch it,
Speaker 1: it's so entertaining. Now I remember that video. I definitely
Speaker 1: because you're right, it was like his comeback and he
Speaker 1: was in like a neighborhood. He was the neighborhood. He
Speaker 1: was like coming back to the neighborhood, pulled up in
Speaker 1: the big we're in the big bus and all these
Speaker 1: I was on that bus, but they didn't show me,
Speaker 1: and they show everyone getting off the bus, and you know,
Speaker 1: come to the neighborhood and think, I think Puffy should
Speaker 1: do a Robin do over because you did not get
Speaker 1: your adequate tive me more time. Yes, So next time
Speaker 1: you you have a shop Puffy combs, next time you
Speaker 1: have a little video, make sure Robin gets her due.
Speaker 1: But he's probably gonna be like, Okay, well let you
Speaker 1: gotta let somebody pour something on you. And you can't
Speaker 1: at this point you can't. I don't care, Okay, all right,
Speaker 1: it's a couple more things that I wanted to discuss
Speaker 1: because this this is intrigued to me. Okay. So l
Speaker 1: Chopo one of his homes went up in Mexico went
Speaker 1: up for auction. It was a lottery on his home.
Speaker 1: The home on the cost a hundred dollars, okay, and
Speaker 1: no one bought it, okay, And I that struck me
Speaker 1: as very strange because I'm convinced there's some money hidden
Speaker 1: in the walls. This is my thought. Okay, so under
Speaker 1: the in this particular home, if you remove the tub,
Speaker 1: that was the whole for the underground way to escape.
Speaker 1: So supposedly they've cemented that over and you know that's gone.
Speaker 1: But I'm sure there is some cash. You don't think
Speaker 1: they've looked everywhere all throughout this house. Well, I mean
Speaker 1: you have to pull up the floor board. They probably
Speaker 1: did that. Oh you think I would imagine like they're
Speaker 1: dealing with El Chappo, Like you're not just gonna be like, oh,
Speaker 1: this chop up for sale. No, You're gonna be like,
Speaker 1: let me pull up every like it's probably literally just
Speaker 1: like four walls. True, it can't be like how a
Speaker 1: livable house. I don't know. I was just feeling like
Speaker 1: I want to go in there and like pull up
Speaker 1: the toilets and everything. Imagine this was not his like
Speaker 1: house of houses, Yes, this is one of his stash
Speaker 1: It was actually yeah, there we go. So if you
Speaker 1: are in the stash house, that's got to be cash
Speaker 1: in the stash house. If they found that cash, that
Speaker 1: cash is gone. I would be diging the backyard or
Speaker 1: his people that like that that stuff is gone. It's gone,
Speaker 1: It's gone. They probably looked at every inch of that property.
Speaker 1: I was gonna tell my Mexican connect to go ahead
Speaker 1: buy it, and it was gonna coming and I'm sure
Speaker 1: it is. Did they Was there anything else for sale?
Speaker 1: I thought that's the best they could do. Well. What
Speaker 1: was interesting about it was that nobody wanted to touch
Speaker 1: it right foot pole. Everybody was like, no need right, So,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I'm
Speaker 1: I'm going to be checking out. What else did they
Speaker 1: auction off? That was l Chapo? Do you think El
Speaker 1: Chappo is going to escape again? Yes? Do you think so? Hell? Yeah?
Speaker 1: That was so amazing. Yes, So they haven't right where
Speaker 1: they have them. He it's he's in a facility. But
Speaker 1: it's extremely luxurious, right, I mean luxurious? Is it? From
Speaker 1: what I understand, He's like running the whole thing, and
Speaker 1: he you know, he has people coming in and people
Speaker 1: leaving out, and he's he's got his hose on on rotation.
Speaker 1: Oh god, okay, I need, I need, I need to
Speaker 1: research L Chapo. I'm like always highly entertained by like
Speaker 1: the drug lord cartel, Yes, the cartels. All that that
Speaker 1: stuff is so entertaining. All right, so listen, we have
Speaker 1: put it out there on our social media to ask
Speaker 1: us anything. I mean, you guys a lot of times
Speaker 1: individually on our d m s. You guys have all
Speaker 1: kinds of crazy questions. So we just decided we're gonna
Speaker 1: deal with them. Okay, um that are not related to
Speaker 1: the show that we do call The Real Housewives of Potomac.
Speaker 1: So y'all really asked a hundred million questions. Okay, and
Speaker 1: y'all a nosy. This is the title of this episode,
Speaker 1: y'all a nosey, and we love it. I have like
Speaker 1: a whole book. So of course we cannot get through
Speaker 1: all the questions in this one episode. But what we're
Speaker 1: gonna do is kind of like every now and again,
Speaker 1: We're gonna try to make this like an ongoing segment
Speaker 1: and we'll answer questions, especially because y'all really want to
Speaker 1: get to know us better. And we're just happy y'all
Speaker 1: want to get to know us. I know, and I
Speaker 1: love that we have the platform to do. So, yes, yes, immediately, Okay,
Speaker 1: So Robin, you want to start sure, okay, and I
Speaker 1: print romine reading all of this print. Okay, Um, have
Speaker 1: you ever passed for another ethnicity or for white in
Speaker 1: order to fit in or for safety or opportunity? Be honest?
Speaker 1: So that's from Craig that that actually has never even
Speaker 1: across my mind. Um, However, I was on a cruise
Speaker 1: one time with my girlfriends. It was three of us
Speaker 1: on a cruise and we're all light skinned, and we
Speaker 1: met this white guy and played golf like we were
Speaker 1: hanging out. You know how you when you're on a cruise,
Speaker 1: they like sit you at a table with strangers. Are
Speaker 1: so he's at our table, our dinner table. So met
Speaker 1: this white guy. We were hanging out. We we spent
Speaker 1: a lot of time, you know, at the casino and
Speaker 1: whatever with this guy. And he said something about something
Speaker 1: something nigger, I mean nigger, and we said the N words, yes,
Speaker 1: and we me and my friends looked at each other
Speaker 1: like what the funk? Like he doesn't know that we're black,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like the way he said it,
Speaker 1: it was like obvious that he didn't know we were
Speaker 1: black women. And it was like, I mean, after that,
Speaker 1: we just like we were out, like we we couldn't
Speaker 1: even like confront the situation, we just said no more
Speaker 1: of him. So no, I have never tried to pass
Speaker 1: for white, but clearly I have passed, right, I'll be
Speaker 1: known to you, passed for y. And actually that brings
Speaker 1: me too much to something that somebody asked me, Um,
Speaker 1: bring a B B. Why asked me? And my creole
Speaker 1: which is a Louisiana thing. Typically, Yes, I am creole.
Speaker 1: If you watched season four of the Real Housewats of Potomac,
Speaker 1: we went to New Orleans, we did my whole backstory. Um,
Speaker 1: we rode a boat that was the Creole queen. Yes,
Speaker 1: my whole family is creole. But to answer your question,
Speaker 1: do we pass? I would never ever do that. But
Speaker 1: my I have a cousin on my dad's side, and
Speaker 1: my dad doesn't speak to him. And it turns out
Speaker 1: that the reason why he doesn't is because this guy
Speaker 1: was trying to pass, was passing for white, lives his
Speaker 1: life as a white man. He black, wow, and he
Speaker 1: lives his wife as a white man. And my dad
Speaker 1: is like hates him, doesn't speak to him, and we
Speaker 1: didn't exile him from the goddamn family. So that okay, yes,
Speaker 1: all right? Oh, oh your turn, Oh that was your question. Yeah, okay, alright,
Speaker 1: Um so this one, I got a question. Yes, why
Speaker 1: can't y'all talk about Potomac? I like all the other topics,
Speaker 1: but rhop has a lot going on and people want
Speaker 1: to hear what you'll have to say about it. So, um, honestly,
Speaker 1: it is in our contract that we're not really allowed
Speaker 1: to talk about Potomac outside of like Bravo sponsored stuff stuff. Um,
Speaker 1: so we have to have permission from Bravo to be
Speaker 1: able to talk about Potomac because I just wanted to
Speaker 1: put it out there now. I feel like if it's so,
Speaker 1: I can't really talk about what happened in yesterday's episode
Speaker 1: and go in on that. Now. I think there's other
Speaker 1: people that maybe do, Like I think Candy does that
Speaker 1: on her YouTube page, but she must have something in
Speaker 1: her contract that allows her to do that. She probably does,
Speaker 1: but you know, to be honest with you, this has
Speaker 1: been refreshing not to be exact and talk about um
Speaker 1: Potomac and and this podcast is a breath of fresh
Speaker 1: air for me personally. I'll just speak for me because
Speaker 1: it's like we when the show was on the air,
Speaker 1: that's all we do. All of our interviews with all
Speaker 1: of these different outlets. It's like the show and what happened,
Speaker 1: and I'm again and and a lot of times it's
Speaker 1: just like I don't want to talk about that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I agree, And that's how I feel. I mean, I
Speaker 1: I just think it's awesome that you all get to
Speaker 1: learn more about us and our personality. And because I
Speaker 1: think on the show, like you get you really get
Speaker 1: a scale down, filtered version of who we are. And
Speaker 1: we can't talk about the met gala and you know,
Speaker 1: just other random stuff that's going on, and so yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, it's it's it's a slippery slope,
Speaker 1: I think when it comes to being able to talk
Speaker 1: about the show, because some people might reveal too much.
Speaker 1: And I think instead of taking the risk of, you know,
Speaker 1: allowing someone to reveal too much, then like we can't
Speaker 1: reveal anything at all. Um So Kennedy Lana Laney asked,
Speaker 1: are you and Robin still involved in Greek life or
Speaker 1: go back to your undergrad chapter to visit and participate
Speaker 1: in activities. So I am, yes, an active. I'm a
Speaker 1: member of my sorority, financial, I am a paid member
Speaker 1: of of Alpha Cappa Alpha and Um, I try to
Speaker 1: get back to Hampton and Gamma Theata as often as
Speaker 1: I can. It's hard. Howard University played Hampton University and
Speaker 1: I asked for all of my sore wars to meet
Speaker 1: me there. So yes, I try to participate as much
Speaker 1: as I can. And I am also financial. I am
Speaker 1: a Diamond Life member of Stigment Data Get Straight, so
Speaker 1: so I don't have to pay another national due because um,
Speaker 1: we paid Diamond and for anyone who you know doesn't
Speaker 1: know what that is, that means we paid well. My
Speaker 1: mother when I crossed to Delta, my mother paid I
Speaker 1: don't know, it's like twenty five hundred dollars or so,
Speaker 1: a large chunk of money for me to be a
Speaker 1: Diamond Life member, which means that I will always be
Speaker 1: financial for the rest of my life in Delta. But
Speaker 1: I am also a chapter member. I belong to the
Speaker 1: Baltomore County Alumni Chapter of Delta Sigma Data. And my
Speaker 1: mother pays those dudes too, Yes, gladys, and I pay
Speaker 1: her back, but like she makes sure that, like I
Speaker 1: stay financial because she knows when stuff is doing and
Speaker 1: she's like, I paid your dude, now you owe me.
Speaker 1: So just to answer. Somebody else also asked, like, what
Speaker 1: was my line number? I was forty five. On my
Speaker 1: line it was fifty of us and forty five is
Speaker 1: like always a number that I use for stuff. So
Speaker 1: I'm I was number ten and my Instagram pages Robin
Speaker 1: Dixon ten. So if you've ever wonder what the ten is,
Speaker 1: I'm number ten. But um also but to say, yes,
Speaker 1: do I go back to Am I still involved in
Speaker 1: the sorority? Yes, I'm very close with my chapter, my
Speaker 1: my collegiate chapter at the University of Maryland cap of five. Um,
Speaker 1: I would like to be more active though, definitely. Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll get we'll get into it, get into it all right,
Speaker 1: what you got? Alright? Um? Do you pack your kids
Speaker 1: lunches or do they eat school lunches? Okay, what do
Speaker 1: you do? I don't know the answer to this for you.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I packed my kids lunches. Yes, my
Speaker 1: kids are so stuck up. They will not eat school lunch.
Speaker 1: Like if I send them to school without a lunch,
Speaker 1: they will starve themselves. They refused to eat school lunch.
Speaker 1: And it's so frustrating because I literally have to wake
Speaker 1: up and make these damn ham sandwiches, turkey sandwiches and
Speaker 1: cut up fruit and oh my gosh, And do you
Speaker 1: know when we were vegan you mayby we were leaking
Speaker 1: a few years ago and the kids were legan. I
Speaker 1: literally would make them a spinach salad for lunch, spinach
Speaker 1: and not strawberries and cucumbers. And I was doing that
Speaker 1: like every morning. I couldn't believe I was doing that,
Speaker 1: but oh, that's amazing. But yes, I hate packing school lunch.
Speaker 1: And that's one reason I'll probably send my kids to
Speaker 1: private school next year, because because the school lunch, because
Speaker 1: the education. Yes, because my I went to private school
Speaker 1: for high school and that lunch was balm. It was
Speaker 1: like being a sizzler. Like, okay, so I too hate
Speaker 1: packing their lunch, and they hate that I packed the lunch.
Speaker 1: It's we agree, Okay, we are on won a core
Speaker 1: in my house. So I give them money for them
Speaker 1: to get their lunch at school, and the yeah, you're right,
Speaker 1: it is Sizzler. They got a whole lot to choose from,
Speaker 1: so typically it's like six or seven dollars a day.
Speaker 1: So I tell them I give them some money at
Speaker 1: the beginning of the week, and I tell them, look,
Speaker 1: at here. You gotta budget just like ahead of time.
Speaker 1: So they used to have like a car, right, but
Speaker 1: they don't have that anymore because they're just now because
Speaker 1: of COVID and I don't know anyway, sometimes in the
Speaker 1: middle of the week, my kids said they ran out
Speaker 1: of money. Right. That doesn't have nothing to do with
Speaker 1: me now because because they went back for second because
Speaker 1: I told them to budget accordingly. Yeah, now we're working
Speaker 1: on this. We're working on this. Yes, yes, let me
Speaker 1: tell you my school launch in private school what he
Speaker 1: was like, have at it. Yes, I'm definitely going to
Speaker 1: send in the private school. I can't take I cannot
Speaker 1: make these launches anymore hilarious. Okay, So Gonzales asked me,
Speaker 1: I think this is a really good question. If you
Speaker 1: or Robin could be CEOs of any company in the world,
Speaker 1: which would it be. Which would you choose? This is
Speaker 1: like an existing company. Okay, um, you answer first. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I would be the CEO of like a whole food,
Speaker 1: like a grocery chain, so like a whole food, a
Speaker 1: safe Way or whatever, because at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: I want to give of the food to people who
Speaker 1: cannot afford food. So I feel like there isn't enough
Speaker 1: intention about people that I can't tell you how many
Speaker 1: times somebody's been in front of me inline and they
Speaker 1: didn't have enough money to pay for their food. Right.
Speaker 1: So if we had a system set up that, like
Speaker 1: the food that was getting ready to go bad, like,
Speaker 1: let's give it to people that really need it. As
Speaker 1: a CEO, that is what I would do when when
Speaker 1: I get to when I get to heaven, That's one
Speaker 1: of my questions to God, Like why do people go hungry?
Speaker 1: Go hungry? Yeah? I think especially in the United States,
Speaker 1: it's like totally unnecessary. We have enough food for everybody. Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: and I and like, so that's why food banks are
Speaker 1: super important. Yeah, because there are so many people that
Speaker 1: it's so crazy. It's like they're not they might not
Speaker 1: be um homeless. What is it under dang? What's the
Speaker 1: term they use at the food It's underserved. It's a
Speaker 1: term and it really like because it'll be people, you know,
Speaker 1: working class people and they just can't afford to feed
Speaker 1: their family. The U S Department of Our Culture estimates
Speaker 1: that around eleven to twelve of US households or food insecure.
Speaker 1: These individuals who have difficulty accessing meals, have to cut meals,
Speaker 1: have to share meals, or may miss a day or
Speaker 1: two of a meal in the course of a period
Speaker 1: of time because they're not able to afford those meals.
Speaker 1: So you know, the kids they have to rely on
Speaker 1: school to eat right. Yeah, and that that's so all
Speaker 1: of that. I just need for it to be alleviated
Speaker 1: gotten rid of in this country. Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: That bothers me. Gosh, what would my company be? You know,
Speaker 1: I've always, since I was young, had like a love
Speaker 1: for like retail. Um, Like I would play like store
Speaker 1: my house. I would put a price tag on like
Speaker 1: everything in the house. So it definitely would probably be
Speaker 1: something retail centered. Um, I don't I can't really say
Speaker 1: like one company. I mean, can I just stay the
Speaker 1: CEO of Embellished because you can grow, Yes, you can
Speaker 1: add more things, which I'm working on, Yes, Gonzales, that's
Speaker 1: the answer. Probably just be living her her life that
Speaker 1: she living. I just want to expand Embellished in Yes,
Speaker 1: stay tuned. I'm gonna work on like some nice Yeah.
Speaker 1: Speaking of Embellished and Robin taking over the fashion world,
Speaker 1: we are coming out with reasonably shady merch so stay
Speaker 1: tuned for that. Stay tuned. Very soon. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: some some fun hoodies limited supplies, so don't sleep. Trust
Speaker 1: me when I tell you it's going to be limited supply.
Speaker 1: You better get you better get on it. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: and speaking embellished one of the questions a lot. I
Speaker 1: got this question a lot. When will embellished be restocked?
Speaker 1: In other words, robbing you're not doing your CEO. Can
Speaker 1: I tell you how frustrating it is to not have
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a good thing, like okay, that means
Speaker 1: like people are buying it, but to not have anything
Speaker 1: to sell, like my website is dormant and I hate
Speaker 1: it because they have so many people who want to buy.
Speaker 1: And that's one of the things as a small business owner, UM,
Speaker 1: managing inventory that is is very hard. I think that's
Speaker 1: like one of the biggest issues or problems. It's like
Speaker 1: either you don't have enough or you don't want to
Speaker 1: have too much, you know, so I don't want to
Speaker 1: have too much. Embellition is just sitting there and I
Speaker 1: can't and it's hard to predict and forecast you know,
Speaker 1: how many hats I'm gonna need. Um, So what's the
Speaker 1: answer to the question do we have a we have
Speaker 1: a roundabout dates so honestly, so I am expecting a
Speaker 1: shipment next week. Honestly, by the time you hear this,
Speaker 1: I'm probably will probably be restocked, so any day now.
Speaker 1: But when I do restocked, make sure you get it past. Okay, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: but I appreciate. But it's it sucks because it's like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I'm where the show is on air
Speaker 1: and people are reminded like, oh, let me, I want
Speaker 1: to go buy a hat, and they have nothing to buy.
Speaker 1: It's so frustrated. Listen, we gotta do bad without inventory.
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna have to just quadruple the number
Speaker 1: or something. Okay, listen. So Alexandria asked me, this is
Speaker 1: for you to Robin. Are those your real eyes? What? Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need for you all to get to know
Speaker 1: the green eye Bandit's better, okay, because we were born
Speaker 1: with these eyes. Absolutely. And you know what, It's so funny.
Speaker 1: When I was a little girl, I can remember people
Speaker 1: coming up to me, you know, at adults, Like I
Speaker 1: would be in the store with my mom and adults
Speaker 1: will be like, oh my gosh, your eyes are so pretty.
Speaker 1: And I literally honestly had no idea what they were
Speaker 1: talking about. I I did not know that my eyes
Speaker 1: were green and that my eyes look different from anyone else's.
Speaker 1: So I literally be like, like, are they talking about
Speaker 1: the shape of my eyes? Y'all not have a mirror
Speaker 1: in the house. No, we did, But I didn't know
Speaker 1: that I look different. You know, I'm saying like, I
Speaker 1: had no idea that because maybe because like my brother
Speaker 1: has like eyes, my mom has hey, my grandmother has
Speaker 1: blue eyes. My cousin has blue eyes. So maybe for me,
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, everybody got light eyes, like you know,
Speaker 1: so so for me, like light eyes, green eyes was
Speaker 1: nothing special. And I never noticed that I was different
Speaker 1: because I had green eyes. And it's so and it's
Speaker 1: so funny. One day I was like, I was like,
Speaker 1: let me look in the mirror. Figure out what these
Speaker 1: people are talking about. This is probably last year, Okay,
Speaker 1: Robin's hilarious. So I literally stood in the mirror and
Speaker 1: was like and I looked, and I was like, oh, okay,
Speaker 1: it's the color of my eye. I can't, y'all, Robin Dixon,
Speaker 1: I'm as okay, I'm so dumb, y'all I'm so dingy. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm so so. I'm glad you figured out how old
Speaker 1: were you when you figured it out? Green eyes? I
Speaker 1: said you had green eyes? We I mean, dingy is
Speaker 1: just for life. So yes, Um, I don't really know
Speaker 1: how old I was. I can't remember. I can't put
Speaker 1: like a number on that, but I just remember being
Speaker 1: so confused. I feel like I probably was like a
Speaker 1: little girl, like five years old or something, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, like, and I would just be like,
Speaker 1: thank you, Like what are you talking about? Like no idea? Well,
Speaker 1: you know, because did you know when you were five?
Speaker 1: Did you did you know you had green ups? I
Speaker 1: knew that people people cut the same thing. People come
Speaker 1: to my mom and they would they asked because I
Speaker 1: had like a dark rim around my eyes, especially at
Speaker 1: the bottom, and they would ask my mom why did
Speaker 1: she put makeup on me? And she would get mad,
Speaker 1: like who are these white ladies talking to me about
Speaker 1: my child and thinking that I put makeup on a
Speaker 1: five year old like I did not, and that's ridiculous
Speaker 1: and why can't my child just be pretty? Right? So
Speaker 1: I knew it was something different because it was all
Speaker 1: this discussion, but it was like, my sister was always
Speaker 1: like if I have an older sister who is um
Speaker 1: always keeps it real, And she was always like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you pretty at you and had nothing to do with that.
Speaker 1: That was mommy and daddy and that was their genes,
Speaker 1: and UM had nothing to do with you. So, um,
Speaker 1: you know, you need to be smart and that's what
Speaker 1: you can control, but your face and you had nothing
Speaker 1: to do with that. Don't even get too excited. I said, well, God,
Speaker 1: damn no, that was Mama and Papa Graves. Ship. Well,
Speaker 1: let me just stay in the bed today. Good God. Anyway,
Speaker 1: thank god I have thick skin. All right. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna take one more of what you guys asked before
Speaker 1: we wrap up. Okay, so how do your boys handle
Speaker 1: filming now that they have done it for a while
Speaker 1: and they are getting older? Good ask a good question.
Speaker 1: So I have to pay my children to go to work, Okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: So okay, I'm gonna stop you right there. Okay. So
Speaker 1: Robin and I had this discussion prior to us filming.
Speaker 1: I think see this past season season six, and I
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, the girls have given me
Speaker 1: a hard time about filming, and Robin was saying the
Speaker 1: same thing about her kids. So she was like, Giselle,
Speaker 1: I'm going to pay them and I was like, what,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's a good idea. And in that way,
Speaker 1: they'll feel a sense of ownership they have a job.
Speaker 1: I'm literally like, all y'all, you'll have to work today.
Speaker 1: It's time to go to work. And so now like
Speaker 1: when they aren't going to work, they're like, when do
Speaker 1: I go to work next? Because they want you pay them,
Speaker 1: like an hour they rate I pay them, and this
Speaker 1: is the other thing. I pay them according to the scene.
Speaker 1: And how well they did my god, Robert the producer,
Speaker 1: now what I mean by like how well they like
Speaker 1: do they behave or were they like being difficult or
Speaker 1: because that's the other thing. They get in front of
Speaker 1: the camera and they act like they have no sense
Speaker 1: and they want to give me the hardest time, and
Speaker 1: they like, you know, they just they roll along the floor.
Speaker 1: When I'm trying to have a conversation. I'm like, y'all
Speaker 1: are killing me right now. And I'm like, Okay, I
Speaker 1: don't want to look crazy and where I'm like yelling
Speaker 1: at my kids and stuff. So I'm just gonna let
Speaker 1: y'all just do whatever. But they'll literally be like, you know,
Speaker 1: hiding under a blanket, and I'm like, okay, like y'all
Speaker 1: cut it out. So they get paid based on you know,
Speaker 1: how long of a period of time and how well
Speaker 1: they performed. Wow, Wow, that that's okay. So it's this
Speaker 1: like ten dollars an hour, twenty dollars an hour. So
Speaker 1: I've paid them anywhere between, like so it's per scene, right,
Speaker 1: So I paid them, I want to say, anywhere between
Speaker 1: like ten to thirty dollars. It's nice, depending on like
Speaker 1: what it was, like, how how much they did or
Speaker 1: like what you know what I mean? Okay, I like that. Yes.
Speaker 1: I actually told my girls, um the same thing. I
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna give you guys an hourly rate. Right.
Speaker 1: So we had our first scene season six and we
Speaker 1: were done with it and I was like at the
Speaker 1: end of it, I was like, all right, guys, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you y'all y'all's earnings and they were like, no, Mom,
Speaker 1: it's fine, we just want like they literally would not
Speaker 1: take money. They were like, it's fine, you know, we're
Speaker 1: here for you, like they were. They shocked me, and
Speaker 1: I think it's a difference between girls and boys. Like
Speaker 1: they shocked me. They were just we're just here for you,
Speaker 1: like whatever, it's fine. And I think it's also like
Speaker 1: they're teenagers, so they're probably actually enjoying like the show now,
Speaker 1: you know, Like now it's like, okay, we're actually a
Speaker 1: little popular. People know who we are. My kids are boys,
Speaker 1: and like their friends, like they get stick with their
Speaker 1: friends because their friends. Mom was watched the show to come,
Speaker 1: you know, come telling them about themselves showed it like,
Speaker 1: oh my god. So that that really shocked me. And
Speaker 1: because they that was so sweet at themselves. And you
Speaker 1: never paid them, no, I mean I've given them whatever
Speaker 1: they want. Of course they get paid in other ways. Yes,
Speaker 1: all right, So this is my last one. So because
Speaker 1: this is really sweet, So Kelly says to me, I
Speaker 1: love your spirit. How do you keep it up when
Speaker 1: things get tough, because you know, things always get tough,
Speaker 1: and my mom always told me that when that, when
Speaker 1: things get tough, make sure you wear your lipstick. They
Speaker 1: keep your lips popping. So I always have lip gloss
Speaker 1: with me. As long as my lips are popping, I
Speaker 1: feel good about myself. Okay, yeah, all right, well, I
Speaker 1: love that. I mean, that's not my solution. I don't. Yes,
Speaker 1: it just makes you know, if your lips are popping
Speaker 1: and you feel good and and you know you got
Speaker 1: a little yellow shine on the lips, there's no way
Speaker 1: you can have a bad day. Right, That's that's very true.
Speaker 1: And to piggyback off of that in closing, um, I
Speaker 1: want to leave you know everyone, I think we wanta
Speaker 1: we gotta start giving some motivational Yes, we do kind
Speaker 1: of messages, so we want to motivate people. Yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: so I actually shared this on my Instagram story. But
Speaker 1: I want to reiterate two traps you need to avoid
Speaker 1: because I'm very good at this. Avoid caring what they
Speaker 1: think and avoid thinking that they care. So I feel
Speaker 1: like that's the solution to like, okay, when things are
Speaker 1: going wrong or bad women. Gotta read the second one again.
Speaker 1: I was confused on the second thinking that they care. Okay,
Speaker 1: that so avoid stops like, don't even think that they
Speaker 1: care that they care. Okay, I got it right, because
Speaker 1: because I find a lot of times when you're like
Speaker 1: beefing with someone or like you have a you know,
Speaker 1: falling out with someone and you're sitting at home and
Speaker 1: you're like thinking about it all the time, and you're
Speaker 1: mad and angry that person ain't think about you, ain't
Speaker 1: going about you. They're going to live their life they
Speaker 1: you know. So it's like you're sitting here giving them
Speaker 1: all of your energy. Yeah, and they over there, you know,
Speaker 1: yeah the cheesecake factory eating exactly exactly. So so yeah,
Speaker 1: so so let's let's stop caring what people think or
Speaker 1: thinking that anyone cares. And that is like, I feel
Speaker 1: like that's a solution to like when you do have
Speaker 1: issues and problems, like just you know, face some head on,
Speaker 1: like don't be embarrassed, no, you know, just go through
Speaker 1: your struggles and and do what's best for you and
