Highly Melanated Jeopardy

The world feels loud right now, and sometimes it’s hard to remember there’s still good happening every day. We start where a lot of us are living: irritated by endless spam calls and texts, side-eyeing how our data gets used, and asking why peace is always behind a paywall. From there, we get real about politics and the specific way Black women get treated when they’re the most qualified person in the room, including a viral clip that puts the country’s sexism and racism on full display.

Then we shift the energy on purpose. We check in about life, travel chaos, and the behind-the-scenes reality of trying to stay consistent as creators while life keeps happening. And we bring back a grounding prompt: tell us one feel-good moment you’ve seen lately. That opens the door to stories that actually restore you, from innovative “smart city” solutions like Sweden training crows to clean up trash, to the joy of watching Black kids create art, perform, and speak truth about their own communities.

Finally, we turn the studio into a full-on trivia arena with Highly Melanated Jeopardy: Black music lyrics, meme knowledge, Black household rules, Black TV and movies, and acronyms that will either humble you or make you feel seen. The rules are chaotic, the laughter is constant, and the takeaway is simple: fun is not frivolous, it’s survival.

If you laughed, learned, or felt a little lighter, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave us a review. What question would you have gotten right, and which one would’ve taken you out?

SPEAKER_04 1:20

Hey guys, hey guys, hey guys. Welcome back to another episode of Highly Melanated Podcast. The safe space where it is okay.

SPEAKER_05 1:27

The picture not even looking at us is crazy. It takes concentration. It does, it do. I'm finding I'm finding it.

SPEAKER_04 1:38

Finding it. I'm finding it. The safe space to where it is okay to let folks know that it's even though Black History Month is over, it's Black History Year.

SPEAKER_05 1:49

I thought you were gonna go a totally different direction.

SPEAKER_04 1:52

I I was about to. That's why I that's why I couldn't look at you guys. Because then I would have been in this is the safe space to not have a gag reflex.

SPEAKER_03 2:00

Wait a minute. What the hell? Well, I mean, it could be true. Two things could be true at once.

SPEAKER_04 2:06

Okay. PJ is about sick and tired of these damn spam calls and texts. I'm over it. I'm tired. I can't.

SPEAKER_03 2:16

Oh man. Oh, uh I second that. Here, here. Motion pass. Motion passed.

SPEAKER_05 2:21

I didn't even know what we were gonna take this, uh, but I get like this five spam calls a day, and it's it's it's too much.

SPEAKER_03 2:30

Well, you what well, from my understanding, there was a major breach that recently that recently happened, and that had pretty much everybody's everything in it. Yeah, right. And so that's why they're all reaching out. I'm all like, why are you reaching out to me about whatever?

SPEAKER_04 2:44

I am on the do not call list. It's it's not even that. So I've been getting these things for a long time. Like, hey, Phil, are you ready to take some money for your business? Like, and then it says, okay, when are you ready to open up Lorenzo's pizza? Like, not Lorenzo. I keep getting texts of the business.

SPEAKER_05 3:03

I keep getting texts, um, a political text talking about, hey Marjorie, who the fuck is Marjorie?

SPEAKER_04 3:10

Marjorie. Well, let me start calling you Marjorie now.

SPEAKER_03 3:13

Don't you dare. Oh my god. I can't even find it now. Maybe I did maybe I deleted it because I out of frustration. So mine was mine was something like regarding like finances. Wanna take out a loan?

SPEAKER_04 3:38

No. Yeah, they're they're they're loan-based. And it so like at first I when they first started happening, I was like, oh, so Firefly is, I mean, yeah, Firefly is actually like there, so it's like, okay, I'm getting funding all of a sudden. People are asking if I want to take out a loan. And they're like, we can set up about a two million dollar loan for your business. And I, you know, after a while, I was like, wait a minute.

SPEAKER_05 4:00

First of all, two million dollars.

SPEAKER_04 4:02

Like, you know, it was it was but it it you know, it comes from the different text numbers and this and that, whatever. And so, like, what I've been doing as of recent is I'll respond now. But I'm like, they said, Can you provide me your email? And I said, Your mama coochie stink at gmail.com.

SPEAKER_03 4:18

Could you imagine? Yo, mama coach.

SPEAKER_04 4:20

Oh my god, you know, and hearing could you spell that?

SPEAKER_03 4:23

Could you spell coochie?

SPEAKER_05 4:25

Is that with an S or a Z? Right. Is that is that the traditional spelling?

SPEAKER_04 4:29

Or also I do want to also add Happy Women's History Month.

SPEAKER_05 4:33

So no, you got to separate them two things. PJ is the coochie. You are going to have to provide some separation of those.

SPEAKER_04 4:43

I heard it as it was happening. I heard it as it was happening.

SPEAKER_03 4:46

I'm really excited. I was like, yeah. I was like, oh no, that's that's that's after the coochie steak.

SPEAKER_05 4:54

Lord have mercy.

SPEAKER_04 4:56

So PJ, PJ is taking his foot out of his mouth in this moment.

SPEAKER_05 5:00

That's lovely.

SPEAKER_03 5:01

Well, Red, we'll start this off right and say, Happy Women's History Month.

Women’s History And Political Reality

SPEAKER_05 5:10

And Blair is thank God I'm a woman, you know. Thank God I'm a black woman because I wouldn't want to be anything else. I tell you what. Oh, that's right.

SPEAKER_04 5:26

So I'm gonna put this little clip in here. And this was this man was, I saw this reel that said um that clipped what Michelle Obama said about how like America's not ready for a woman president. And he's like, let me take a step further. America's not ready for a black woman president.

SPEAKER_02 5:44

Michelle Obama said That's why I'm like, don't even look at me about running, because you all are lying. You're not ready for a woman. You are not. So don't waste my time. You know, we got a lot of growing up to do.

SPEAKER_00 5:54

I take it a step further and say, black women. Every time the more educated, more qualified black woman is on the ballot, this country displays its bigotry and sexism. Let's start with Stacey Abrams. She ran for Georgia governor twice in 2018 and 2022 against this guy, Brian Kemp. She was clearly the better candidate, but the state said, nah. Let's do the white guy. In 2024, Kamala Harris ran for the presidency against a whole convicted felon. And the country, despite Kamala, if nothing else, not being a felon, they said, nah. Give us the felon white guy. Jasmine Crockett ran into primary for a U.S. sentency and lost to this guy, James Tellerico. The crazy part is the majority of the people didn't even know who the fuck he was until she entered the race. But nevertheless, they said it doesn't matter, give us the unknown white guy. And in all three cases, this coalition y'all so desperately want with people of color, they all heavily voted for the white guy. Honestly, in my opinion, this country doesn't deserve black women's guidance. They don't deserve your wisdom and your foresight to see the things we are experiencing today. To my black brothers and sisters, stop believing we have allies. We don't. And Michelle Obama, you were right. This country isn't ready.

SPEAKER_02 7:04

And they all have a lot of growing up to do.

SPEAKER_04 7:07

Yeah. Yeah. I'm just I'm I just this country is a piece of shit. That's all I got to say.

SPEAKER_05 7:13

I was sitting on the train on my way to work today, and there was a he was probably a college age student, um, sitting next to me, and he was reading a book. I couldn't see the name of the book, but the chapter, the chapter he was on was titled Suck My Dick America. Oh right. I said, Well, I wonder what this book is about.

SPEAKER_04 7:45

Well, as we're moving right along, how was everybody's week?

SPEAKER_05 7:51

Um My week has been full of push and pull. So it's it's it's been a it's only and it's only Tuesday. I know this comes out on Thursday, but we record on Tuesday, so the week is still quite young and fresh in this moment, and it's it's been a week, but hopefully, um, you know, the second half of the week is a little more relaxed than this first half has been.

SPEAKER_03 8:22

Right. Um my week has been alright. Um last the Saturday that just passed was my mother's birthday. Happy 65th.

SPEAKER_05 8:40

Yes, yes, I saw those pictures. Y'all is young?

SPEAKER_04 8:45

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 8:46

Yeah. She uh it's so funny because we were having this whole conversation about what do we get everybody? Because next is my father's, and then it's gonna be Egypt's birthday. And so I was like, what are we what are we getting him? And like they're at the point where they're just all like, well, what do we what do you get from? So we're just probably gonna take them out to eat or something like that. So but it was a good time. We went to um, you ever heard of uh restoration hardware?

SPEAKER_05 9:14

Mm-hmm. You went to the rooftop there?

SPEAKER_03 9:16

Yeah, I went to the rooftop.

SPEAKER_05 9:17

Yeah, it's nice, isn't it?

SPEAKER_03 9:18

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's good. We had a really good time. So happy birthday, mom.

SPEAKER_05 9:23

Yes, happy birthday, mommy.

SPEAKER_04 9:25

Yes, yes. Um, my week has been great, but I will let me take a step back. Um, because y'all know I like to acknowledge it, right? So we were supposed to record for the past couple of weeks. And number one, I just want to say that these two here have had the they were blessed in the sense that they did not have to experience the snowstorm that we had here in New York during this during that time. However, it was it was fun for you guys to get back. I I I I remember y'all saying.

SPEAKER_05 10:02

Yeah, it was it was a journey around the world to get back. Um yeah, I was I was stuck in Florida because they canceled my flight, my returning flight because of the snowstorm. Um, I was supposed to get back on a Monday. I actually didn't get back until I think that Thursday, something like that. And then even coming back was, you know, still delays and cancellations and rebookings and all kinds of brigamor. So that was a lot. So much so to the point where I have um I opened a new credit card because I don't want to be um beholden to American Airlines anymore. So not because we I did because it was just it was ridiculous. I was like, and then y'all ain't nobody helping me, nobody wanna help me. Like, I was scared. What am I paying for? So it just it literally just got to the point where I was just so frustrated. I was like, I've literally been a loyal customer for over 20 years. Like back when like American Airlines was US Airways.

SPEAKER_04 11:15

So like but you but you but but didn't American and US split because it's still you there still is a US Air Air.

SPEAKER_05 11:22

They merged.

SPEAKER_04 11:24

They merged, they merged. That's clear. And everything became American Airlines because I liked U.S. Airways.

SPEAKER_05 11:31

I did too.

SPEAKER_04 11:32

That's who I was. Am not a fan of American Airlines.

SPEAKER_03 11:36

Listen, they're doing a lot of weird stuff lately. We've talked about this. Even Southwest changed recently a lot of the things that they're doing. They're the way that they do their um seating, whereas like first come first serve.

SPEAKER_05 11:49

Yeah, they have a science piece now.

SPEAKER_03 11:51

Yeah, they get they got rid of that. And like, and I and I've never really used Southwest like that. I used it a couple of times when I was going down to Georgia, but like, you know, other than that, like I they just switched it over. And I was all like, well, that sucked. That was that was a short-lived, you know, thing that I like.

SPEAKER_05 12:09

I mean, that was part of the appeal because, like, you know, like, oh, like they got rid of all the the the frills. So but yeah, basically, I'm just like they think that they can, you know, pigeonhole me, but nah, I didn't open me up a new credit card, it gives me points for everything, and I can use those points for whatever airline I want.

SPEAKER_04 12:28

So but I did want to acknowledge this only because I know that we have made a promise, uh, or I can't say we. I mean, I'm trying my best to make this promise to our listeners. Shout out to y'all who've been rocking with us for the past going on now, eight years. Shout out to all of y'all. Um, Jesus Christ. It's been along Jesus. Um, that this year we plan on being just a little bit more consistent with our recordings and and trying our best. But as we always say, life happens, life be life ends.

SPEAKER_05 13:01

Okay, so PJ says that, and PJ doesn't know yet that I'm basically gonna be like gone for the rest of March.

SPEAKER_04 13:07

So, yeah, so this also this was last week. So we we are back into like what what year was that? Was that like the fourth, the maybe like the fourth or the fifth year where it was just like Blair is out there doing it?

SPEAKER_05 13:20

I I was gonna talk to you guys. I was like, I might have to take a small hiatus. I feel like the show should go on way in below. People let us know. But um, we will we will discuss that all after these messages will be back.

Feel Good News And Gratitude Practice

SPEAKER_03 13:40

Uh yikes. Well, so here I am. You know, guys, these days I try to not keep a footprint on social media like that as much anymore, but I do use it to kind of like get some reprieve every once in a while. And you know what social media is just filled with. So, question of the week, question of the week, question of the week. Your questions as they pertain to you prospectively and introspectively. Um, I came across a really interesting article recently, and it was an article that was talking about Sweden making it a smart city using technology to basically clean up their trash by using uh crows, and the crows can deposit the trash into the machine, and the the machine will actually deposit uh you know things like snacks and cookies and things of that nature, crackers, things that the birds can eat. So crows are very smart. They'll actually just pick up the trash and it's been actually working. So, question of the week, because we know the state of the world and everything that's in, what is one feel-good moment or one thing that you saw that was good that you enjoyed, that you want to see, that you want to tell the world? Like that was my that was like my thing. Like, I wanna I I love hearing about oh, we're gonna clean up the the earth and we're not going to war. So what's one thing, once what's what's what's one good feel good moment that you might have or seen?

SPEAKER_04 15:23

Um, can I go? While while blowing you thinking about George? Um I'll say this. Now I make a lot of jokes about these little ninjas that I'm teaching and like how I just sometimes want to just throw them out the window and throw just throw them away because my god today. Um however, it was like two weeks ago, they did their performance and it was like their it was, yeah, it was their Black History Month performance. Um and these kids had, and this is middle school, and these kids have been so like they've been practicing, they've been learning their poems, they've been doing their dances, they've been they've really been focused on it. And even though what I come to the school for, which is podcasting, um they were not able to pull down the screen and play what they recorded, um, nor did they have time because the sound system wasn't really working, um, to do a whole setup and do a live recording because that's what the thing that they were supposed to do. Um, I actually ended up staying. I I went there just to watch them to support them, even though you know what we did is not gonna be in the show. And it there are moments where I love watching um these kids show who they are with their talent um and be passionate about something, especially something artistic, especially something that's black as fuck. So, like it was a beautiful moment. I'll say that. I really thoroughly enjoyed um them, and then immediately the next day I saw them, I was good. But in that moment, I I that's why I I don't want to give up on them, and I try my best not to, because there are not a lot of black male teachers, especially in in certain certain you know spaces. Um, so I try to still be there for them in that way. Um and it's just beautiful when they actually are focused on something. So like that was a joy that I got to see. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 17:21

That's nice one that that's a beautiful feel-good moment that makes you feel like the world is not ending. I love that.

SPEAKER_04 17:27

And that's the part about it. So like these kids are the next generation. So like they were speaking, and there's this one kid who wrote a poem about Brooklyn. And uh, I wish I could remember it, and I wish I would have got it on recording, and I didn't. I I videotaped a bunch of this stuff, but I did it with somebody else's phone. Um, because I was just be there as a bystander, uh, just as a you know, a watcher. Um, and they were talking about how the gentrification it and it was a poem that he wrote, and he's in he's a seventh grader, and it was how you may you love Brooklyn, you love to stay out your you live in Brooklyn, but you also love to push our people out. And it was just it was the way that he worded it that was just like maybe you should go into politics. Who knows? And he did write it, so it wasn't like his parents helped him or anything like that. Like he actually asked for my opinion. You know, it was those are the things that matter to me.

SPEAKER_03 18:25

I love that. Okay, so we got technology and we got what what category will we put that in? I believe that. The children are our future.

SPEAKER_05 18:34

Come on, come on our future. Treat them well and let them lead the way.

SPEAKER_04 18:42

Up until. Oh god.

SPEAKER_05 18:44

Um, oh god. It's kind of depressing that it nothing is coming to mind.

SPEAKER_03 18:50

Um, I'm sure there's lots of stuff to say. You know what I'll say?

SPEAKER_05 18:54

You know what I'll say? It was actually last night. I was on video chat with um Nareen, the baddest beach, and our friend uh Madaron, who actually moved in right next door to me. Um so the three of us were on video chat last night for like three hours, like so random, but we were just talking about a whole bunch of stuff, and then for whatever reason, at some point, um oh, because so she was having Metaron was kind of having like a down moment. And she was just like she was saying things, and I was like, we don't do self-deprecation around here, like we don't, we don't do that, we don't do that. She's like, You're right, thank you for loving me. I was like, I do love you. You know who else loves you? Jesus. And so then we started, we started, I started singing. I was like, I said, um, I started singing, uh, Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so. So then she started singing a very similar song and like verse, and I was like, oh, I don't know that version, I don't know that version. And then Noreen started singing a similar song, but I was like, I don't know that version either. I was like, is it possible that there are three different songs out here with like the same like sentiment? Because it was the same idea, it was just like we were all singing it in different like cadences. So then eventually we ended up just like putting it on, like we searched the song and listened to it and literally listened to the fact that all three cadences are in the same song. It's just that each of us knew a different part of the song and had no idea about the other parts of the song. So full circle now. It's just you know, you can see things from a different perspective, but at the end of the day, you're all saying the same thing.

SPEAKER_03 20:47

Okay, I love that. I I really like that a lot. Oh, see, look at that.

SPEAKER_04 20:54

I think Comet likes it too. Look, Comet just popped in.

SPEAKER_03 20:57

No, he's like looking like what y'all talking about.

SPEAKER_04 21:00

Our our residential black ass cat. Go ahead.

SPEAKER_03 21:03

No, no, no. I mean, that's a beautiful thing, and I think um something that you said, which is why I brought it up, you know, you said it's kind of depressing because you don't have anything that that's good that's coming to mind. And I don't think that's true for the for the most part. I think there are a lot, a lot of people they're going through things, but there's a lot of good that happens daily. It's just that it it can be overwhelming, and that's why there's that moment where I definitely just want everybody to just take so that they can think about it and think about some of the good things that are happening.

SPEAKER_04 21:31

So and so like this this is why we did it. We we I forgot what episode it was, but I talk about a lot about this, and you y'all know, and it's not inherent to my bedroom, but like I really think that we all should, at some point, you got gratitude journals you can purchase and or you can make, but like a gratitude jar. Like I do a gratitude jar. I put stickies and little things in there of little little joys that I celebrate throughout the day or throughout the week or whatever, and later down the road I look back at them and I'm like, you know what, that did happen. There is more joy out there than sadness. You know? And so, like, even though like we're bombarded with what's going on in the news and we're, you know, which well, not the news, the news that we get to see. Let me just say that.

SPEAKER_05 22:13

Right, because there's a whole lot that they ain't telling us.

SPEAKER_04 22:16

There's a lot. And what what I would suggest everybody do, instead of just watching CNN and MSNBC and all the other uh if y'all watching Fox News, y'all don't belong here. But if um whatever news station you're watching, I would I would suggest that everybody watches international news. Because maybe those are the ones who are really telling it, especially from the viewpoint of someone who's not what America is like in other countries or reviews from other countries. I'd recommend that. So did you answer this? Did you answer this question? The crows. Because I was like, wait, crows? You did say birds, right? Like, yeah, no, I said cro said I said birds, but then I said crows. No, no, I was like, because I still didn't follow.

SPEAKER_05 22:57

I was like, why are there the birds are gonna clean up the streets?

SPEAKER_03 23:02

Listen, I thought that was really dope. I I I wish they did when they would implement it here. They'd probably be bringing whole tires and everything.

SPEAKER_04 44:51

The answer to this question is in the form of a question.

SPEAKER_05 44:55

Huh?

SPEAKER_04 44:56

The answer to this question is a form of a question. The answer to this question is in the form of a question. It became a meme everywhere. I just want to know, are you a lesbian? Okay.

They're they're okay. Sure. Okay, we can say this. Alright. Let me reiterate the question with the word that they said we should put in there to help.

SPEAKER_05 45:44

Because I think I know what it is, but I feel like you put the wrong word in there.

SPEAKER_04 45:49

I know I left out a word. I moved. Oh no, this is all right. The answer is in the form of a question. Because because Rob from the Side said This reality star became a meme everywhere. I just want to know. Are you a lesbian? Alright, fine. We'll put the word in. Candy. I just want to know. Are you a lesbian? Who said that? Jesus. See, that's the reason why we took out, we chose to take out candy because that would be the answer.

Who said that?

Alright, that was 100 feet. You know what I thought it was?

SPEAKER_03 46:38

SPEAKER_04 46:51

Correct.

unknown 46:52

Correct.

SPEAKER_05 46:52

You know what I thought it was at first? I thought it was um, I thought you were trying not to give it away, and so you said lesbian instead of gay. So I thought it was the, are you gay? Who said I'm gay?

SPEAKER_04 47:12

Alright, let me not use that one.

SPEAKER_05 47:14

Is that what was that in there?

SPEAKER_04 47:15

No, that's it won't be now.

SPEAKER_05 47:18

Alright, um, let's let's do meme knowledge for 250.

SPEAKER_04 47:26

SPEAKER_03 47:50

Alright.

SPEAKER_04 47:52

Are you ready? There's this this there is a method to this madness. I need you to follow up. All right. If you are every woman, what thoughts can you read? Your own thoughts. Okay, so that's minus 50 for going out of turn. Wasn't your question. No fifties is in here. Now you're making me really count.

SPEAKER_05 48:37

Blair? If you're every woman, what thoughts can you read?

SPEAKER_04 48:43

SPEAKER_04 48:58

What this is is if you are every woman.

SPEAKER_05 49:02

It's all in me. Like I don't I don't know what else to do. Incorrect!

SPEAKER_04 49:06

What was that in it? That was that was for 250 minus 250. Alright. Would you like the opportunity to steal? Five. Four.

SPEAKER_05 49:21

We still haven't gotten any clarity on what this is.

SPEAKER_04 49:24

It is the replacement question.

SPEAKER_03 49:27

Sure, okay.

SPEAKER_04 49:28

Um which became the daily double. The highly melaninated double. Um there's another one in there, by the way. There's another, there's a there's a highly melanated triple that is just a completely different. So you never know what it's gonna be. No, this was planned. Okay, this is how we do these on the show, okay. You're supposed to think it's one thing and it's gonna be something else. But this could have got you triple the points. I mean double the points for you. So that's negative 500.

SPEAKER_03 50:03

Oh, okay. I think I got it. I had to like run through the lyrics in my head. Everyone from A to Z. Every what? Everyone from A to Z.

SPEAKER_04 50:24

Is that your final answer? Yes. Incorrect! It is every it is every word from A to Z. Wait, what happened? I guess we can give it to him. He's he's so far behind that, right? Yeah, we can give it to you. You're so far behind. Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. I want to look at the words now because you said This is a replacement because it is a daily, so it can be any category.

SPEAKER_05 51:04

No, I get that. But you said if you're every woman, what thoughts can you hear?

SPEAKER_04 51:14

No, what thoughts can you read? Everywhere from A to Z is the actual not every one, every word. As he looks it up. But you said thoughts. Correct. Because this the lyric the lyric is Is it?

SPEAKER_03 51:31

What is the lyric? What is the lyric? I see here it says everyone from A to Z. What's the what's the whole lyric? Um, I'm every woman, it's all in me.

I had the same question, but I know you, I know people like you, Blair. Question. I just want to understand.

SPEAKER_04 59:42

Okay. Yes. There are two parts to this. Each part has an answer. Once you answer each part, the answer is tri the cost is triple. So this can cost you up to 1500, but you have to get them both.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:03

There we go. Now that made sense.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:06

Because I was trying to explain it, but see, black people don't know how to wait for a second. My little bag.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:14

It's this.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:16

My little T-Box.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:18

A little handkerchief head hair.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:21

Okay, because I am ladies and gentlemen, it is so fucking hot in my apartment right now, and the fan is not blowing on me. So because I didn't want the sound in y'all ears this time around. So this is why.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:33

So we got this freaking napkin draped over it.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:37

Sidebar, not just a napkin. I got this from my cousin. Shout out to my cousin Siobhan for Christmas. And when I say that this is so durable.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:53

Did you just tear it?

SPEAKER_04 1:00:55

But you saw how hard it was to tear, though.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:00

It is quite durable. Like you, it's like Ray Jamn glasses. It's unbreakable. They're unbreakable. You can't break them. He said, I can I can break Ray J. I can break these glasses. You can't break them. Broke them. I don't care.

SPEAKER_04 1:01:17

Go ahead and remove that question from this. Um, I was gonna say, I'm sure that was probably up in there, but it's one of the yeah, there are there are there are okay. So are you ready? Are you ready for this double question? As ready as I'm gonna be, as that napkin was gonna be. Okay. Uh so this is in a different category. Now hold on, wait a damn minute. So, because it's the double and the triple, it's not in the same category. It moves into its other This is how we played in this nigga ass house. So this is like an Uno triple reverse. I see.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:52

Thank goodness I'm in my damn house.

SPEAKER_04 1:01:53

Okay, continue. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:56

SPEAKER_04 1:01:58

Oh, we'll see how worse we can do. You have to get both of these correct. Oh no.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:03

Okay, well, listen, either I don't or I You're supposed to say she'd be like, I would get it correct if you would ask the damn question.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:13

Even though she doesn't get her the flowers that she well deserved, who replaced Jan Jane Hubert as the new Aunt Viv? Her name. And the second part of this question is what season did she appear?

SPEAKER_02 1:02:37

Oh, come on.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:39

Um it looks as if Blair is typing. Uh she is disqualified. I just thought this.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:53

SPEAKER_03 1:03:06

Um wait, wait, all right. I need some moments to think about this. You were about to say fun fact. Do your fun fact.

SPEAKER_05 1:03:17

Fun fact, the actress whose name you're trying to remember.

Wait, so you know this answer? Hell no. Uh-oh. I felt like real, I felt real like, because I I I remember unless they told her friend.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:01

And this is why this is why this question is a tripled question, and this is why it's worded, she does not get the flowers that she deserves. Happy Women's History Month. She deserves it.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:13

Because because I I remember, I feel like I remember her name, but then I'm also thinking about the second part of your question. And I'm just like, when was it?

SPEAKER_05 1:04:21
