What if the way we perceive and navigate relationships could be entirely upended by one podcast episode? What if we told you that the lines between friendship, dating, and marriage aren't as clear cut as society would have us believe? This episode is an emotional rollercoaster, a heartfelt examination of the complexities of relationships, from friendships to marriages, and everything in between.
We don't just talk about relationships, oh no. We delve deep into the controversies swirling around celebrities and their love lives. Keke Palmer and Darius might have been the talk of the town, but we explore how their story reflects wider issues in society - around active listening, self-esteem, and public perception. But don't worry, it's not all heavy. We also have our fair share of laughs, discussing the hilarity of road-head, self-driving cars, and the concept of a pre-pushed gift.
On a more serious note, we tackle the lack of awareness surrounding Juneteenth and ponder ways we can commemorate this significant day in American history. We discuss the importance of not just reading, but truly understanding the implications of information shared online. From the traditional to the absurd, from the humorous to the thought-provoking, this episode is a whirlwind of emotion, debate, and revelation. Don't miss it, you're in for a thought-provoking, laughter-inducing, and perspective-shifting ride!

I know somebody who likes it And I'm sitting across from the lovely, the beautiful Bonita Sunshine. How are you this wonderful week of July?
Speaker 2I am doing well. How are you?
Speaker 1Great, grand and fantastic, as always. How was your fourth? You had a great fourth right. We talked about that.
Speaker 2I didn't do anything.
Speaker 1You didn't celebrate. Are you too woke to celebrate the fourth, or are you just?
Speaker 2I'm so woke.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2No, we just, we just chill at home, enjoy being off from work. Our neighbor had like $600 worth of fireworks, so we just kind of set us out and acted like we were at Bird Park watching the fireworks. Okay, all right. It was. It was quite the show. He had, like the big boy, fireworks like the ones you see like out at the parks.
Speaker 1Okay, now that's good. Yeah, y'all don't. Y'all don't shoot off fireworks Like y'all.
Speaker 2Personally, no, i think we really know we got to say he was going to do them So I'm like it's, it's no point. Plus, the dog does not like them, so he was a blanket. The baby did not like them So she was crying, so it was a bit that ended up sitting in the house at the window.
Speaker 1Oh man, that's crazy.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, go parents and that's wild man.
Speaker 1So I think, i think, um, for Juneteenth, i think we need to set up something. We need to set up a tradition, like something needs to happen other than the cookout, like it has to be something that we do for June, june, june we have fireworks, so Juneteenth, we need to figure out that staple.
Speaker 2Yeah, what is really correlated to June?
Speaker 1Yeah, We got to figure it out, man Cause that that little close the door. We can't. We can't just step to everything. We. That can't be our shit Like. All we do is step, step left right To me, Alana. Yes, yes, we can't do that.
Speaker 2I was watching multiple tiktoks this past week of people doing it. I was like hey, that thing is complex a little bit. Yeah, right, right, right, right right.
Speaker 1I'm surprised you ain't learning it. You ain't learning it.
Speaker 2No, Once they said doing the cross, cross, cross, cross, cross cross, you got to spend. I just got to take a little while I can't get out of the crossover.
Relationships and Public Perception
Speaker 1Oh God, we need something else, man, we can't just be sitting up here and line dancing all the time Like it has to be a staple. Because it just felt weird, like when, um, i guess I can say my white counterparts were just like, you know, we got a Junie, 10th Junie, a holiday coming up and a lot, of, a lot of white people don't know what it is, a lot of black people don't know what it is. They really think it's a new holiday. And it's just weird, like with as much information we have out there, as like people really don't know what it is and it's never brought to the forefront until the government stamps, gives it the stamp of approval. And I don't like that shit. I really don't like that. Like we legit don't read shit, you don't read a fuck that I would say you're going to have something from the man put in a book.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2You know, we ain't, we ain't go read it.
Speaker 1Yeah, It's the wildest, wildest shit ever. I just whoo boy.
Speaker 2I'm sure you're going to get into it later, but it makes me good. Go thinking about speaking of reading stuff how no one read what you said to do on your status and follow it.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, i just I don't understand people in general. They they confuse me sometimes. I love them.
Speaker 2Everything you said don't do Yeah.
Speaker 1I love them. They are the best, they are fantastic and they listened to a certain extent And it's just very interesting how people would just uh, uh, uh, uh. They just really do what?
Speaker 1they want, man. It makes me question how and this is all for them, like all for the particular people, just people in general how they function at work, like the simplest instructions, like now I feel like I'm the one talking about, i'm referencing you when we're at work and you're the one not listening. Like I feel like I'm talking, but I wonder what those people say to their spouse. Like Brandon got mad at me because da, da, da, da, da da. And I told him and I just be like it's nothing you can really say, it's nothing. You don't listen. If you don't actively listen, what can you say to somebody? This is true, what are you responding to?
Speaker 2I don't actively listen, They hear you but they're not listening to the things that you're saying.
Speaker 1This is very true And this is what I feel like happens Okay In regards to relationships in general, i feel like in relationships spouses do not act as a partner And I feel like I'm the one who's talking about.
Speaker 1you know, relationships, spouses do not actively listen And we're human. Shit happens. You know we have a lot of shit going on, so to speak, but that's not an excuse And I think it tends to cause a lot of problems in relationships, and I feel like the internet got very involved in a in a relationship this past week.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1If you don't know who we're talking about, it is Kiki Palmer and the mandarists who we we don't even know where he came from but Before you go, i realized, before you go on, i found out in the midst of it all.
Speaker 2did you know the guy that played I think his name was Joe on insecure is actually his brother in real life.
Speaker 1Oh, okay, okay, Shit, i didn't know that.
Speaker 2Somebody Jackson? how do you say his name? I discovered through all of this that that's his brother.
Speaker 1Oh, okay, all right, i didn't know that, but um, what was that saying?
Speaker 2The internet was was in their relationship this week.
Speaker 1Oh, yeah, yeah. So in within the relationship, uh, it appears that they have broken up. It appears he has removed everything involving Kiki and Kiki has removed everything involved involving Darius, and she has made most or not multiple. She has made a video dancing to a particular song, And I think these are things. I think the internet won in this. In this regard, they won the championship. I don't see how they they really got in. They really got into the very fibers of that relationship. It's, it's.
Respecting Boundaries in Relationships
Speaker 1But I was talking to my, my girl, about this. I really feel like they had an issue beforehand, before all of this came to play, and I think it really spiraled out of control. It turned into something, oh, it turned into something that I just don't believe should have turned into this. I think it was. It branched off into so many different things And it's like, oh shit, like it's out of control. So I want to ask you, as a woman, do you do you feel like how she conducted herself as a married woman Cause she's not married but as a, as a, as a woman, do you feel like she conducted herself accordingly?
Speaker 2Are we referencing at the actual usher show or are we referencing everything after at the actual?
Speaker 1usher show.
Speaker 2I think what people are forgetting is she's an actress. Right, she's an actress. And we know, we've seen Kiki Palmer She tends to be a bit extra, a bit over the top. She's an actress. Okay, i don't feel like and we know usher is the entertainer, that's what he entertains. He got an entertainer and an actress. I don't feel like their interaction. I don't feel like it was anything wrong with it. I felt like he's had this, this residency for forever. You know he puts on a show. He's an entertainer. He has been the whole residency singing to women. I didn't feel like she necessarily did anything wrong. I mean, she kind of fangirl is what it kind of looked like. Like it's usher, like usher to cable. We're singing together. He's putting on a show. It is what it is. So I don't feel like anything that she did in those clips that we saw. I don't feel like she disrespected her boyfriend. So the outfit was fine.
Speaker 1Now I personally that's not something I would wear but that's just me.
Speaker 2We know how Hollywood is. We know Hollywood is kind of like no holds bar. So I tried to look at that that situation, as You know. well, you don't know, but when you have a baby, your body goes through a lot. You know, we don't know what she experienced as far as self-esteem, as far as whatever, after she had her baby, so maybe she stepped into some. this baby has now brought me this new film self-esteem, confidence. I'm going to go out and have a good time. We just don't know what she's going to do. We just don't know what she's going through. But I think he probably knew that she had that on before the whole world knew. I'm not going to sit here and think that he didn't. You really I'm not going to think that.
Speaker 2So you don't think that this, because it looked like it looked like a girls trip, because he was not present.
Speaker 1The residency is in Las Vegas, right? They do not resist.
Speaker 2Right, But she's not going to tell me she ain't send him no pictures before she went out. That's just what I think. I don't think that he was blindsided by the fact that she wore this out. I just don't think that It could be. But I don't necessarily think that Let's go with what she was saying. Let's say, she sent a picture Mm-hmm And he said I don't like it.
Speaker 1I'm uncomfortable. I don't like it. I don't like it. I don't like it. I don't like it. I'm uncomfortable. Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2And she's still a ward, Didn't? she probably would have been in the wrong. I mean, if, if, if you're a representation of your significant other, I think you have to have a level of respect, because you know everybody screams. Don't police women's body. I still feel like you have to have a level of respect for your significant other. If you're doing something that makes them uncomfortable or you're wearing something that makes them kind of like, I don't know if you should wear that. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah. So okay, this is what I really wanted to ask you, because, you know, last week I think last week or two weeks ago we talked about Suki and we talked about the energy she presudes and exude roots and the image she gives off, and you were like, ah, you know, she kind of like low key, brought it on herself Like cause, that's what she does. Mm, hmm.
Speaker 1If you can't police women's bodies, where do you draw the line? If you're gonna be deemed insecure and you don't want that sad attention, you don't want to be looked at as whatever because she had her booty cheeks out. She had the cheeks out.
Speaker 2It was a bit much.
Speaker 1The clappers was out, it was see-through It was a bit much. And.
Speaker 2I've never seen Kiki Palmer and stuff like that. But Jerome was like we've seen her wear provocative stuff before and he started showing me pictures. I'm like, well, i've never seen those pictures. I ain't never seen none of those pictures.
Speaker 1So how do you feel about that, though, if, as a man, you can't police women's bodies? but then as a woman, if you wear certain things, what do you do? Is that a lose-lose, or do you just keep going? I?
Speaker 2think it might be. I think it might be kind of hard to draw that line because it does almost give lose-lose situation, Like you should be free to wear what you want. However, you still should have some kind of respect. I don't know, it's hard to say. It's hard to say So in retrospect.
Speaker 1you feel like Kiki was in the right, She was okay because she's done nothing wrong.
Speaker 2The interaction with Usher. I was okay with The outfit, was like okay, but I don't think that wanted her to be publicly shamed by the person that she loves. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1So what do you say to the man that feels like he was publicly disrespected or shamed by her wearing that outfit?
Speaker 2I feel like it should have been. That should have been a private conversation. It should have never. To me, it should have never come either. You could say it either way. She shouldn't have had her cheeks out on the internet. He shouldn't have dressed it on the internet. But for me, the part that bothered me is that if you were that upset, you could have picked up the phone and called her. I don't feel like he should have went on the internet and did that. That's just me, because this is also the same man that has shared a video of her twerking.
Accountability and Insecurity in Relationships
Speaker 2Saying while pregnant, saying oh, look what my son did. Whatever he said, you gotta pick a side. Like you're posting twerking videos of her, but when she posts her booty out like what's? help me understand what the difference is.
Speaker 1One, you're in control of one, the other one, you're one, i'm in control of The other, i am not. And then the other one, like I said, i think if he did see the outfit, he expressed how he did not like what he saw. So, in that regard, what is he supposed to just do it? He's supposed to do it in private, even though he feels publicly disrespect.
Speaker 2Look, sometimes you gotta be the bigger person. You can't go tit for tat. Sometimes you just gotta be the bigger person, because when you're not the bigger person although we could use that argument well, she did this in public, now I'm addressing in public Sometimes you gotta be the bigger person to eliminate, to eliminate all of the extra.
Speaker 1But women notoriously generally refuse to address things in private. Even we can go to the cheating. We can go to a bum baby dad. We can go to something going on at your job. We can go to women publicly bring private issues to the internet all the time, but now that it's a problem or it's addressed to women or women need to be held, should be held, and I'm not gonna say need to be held accountable.
Speaker 1Now it's a problem, now it's. Oh, you're trying to tell me what to do with my body. Oh, you're trying to control me. You're trying to be a traditional man and you're not a traditional man because you didn't marry me in an X amount of time. Where is all this? So, when it comes, see, the funny shit to me is when cheating happens. I'm not supporting cheating, but when it happens, we never know about it. We don't know shit about it, and the first thing a woman says is you're embarrassing me. Well, you fucking told everybody. Nobody would have knew if you shut the fuck up. But you wanna go to the internet and post subliminal messages. You wanna post subliminal statuses? Yeah, i just feel like it's. In my opinion of the whole situation, they're both wrong.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1Nobody wins in this situation. She shouldn't have did, shouldn't have worn what she wore.
Speaker 2Now do you think you're referencing the outfit or the interaction, or both?
Speaker 1She shouldn't have worn what she wore, she shouldn't have acted the way she acted and she shouldn't have addressed it on the internet. Both were wrong. They're both wrong. But of course everybody loves Kiki. Kiki and Kianna she can't do no wrong, she never misses. So it's like zero accountability on either part And men just can't win for losing. It's just it's the battle of the sexes, like that's what it is. It's just going to be that for a hero.
Speaker 1Now, cause I've seen arguments of like Janet Jackson, janet Jackson does the same thing on stage and yada, yada, yada. And I'm like but Janet Jackson ties you up. You can't touch Janet Jackson. You can't do anything with Janet Jackson unless Janet Jackson wants you to. We don't have see through dick pants that we wear Like it's nothing that we can do. That is equal to women And I understand that there's a double standard. I get that. But it ain't no way in hell that I'm going to sit up here and be pick a side in this. No way, cause the both of them niggas is wrong. There's no way to call this man insecure. It's amazing to me, because women are some of the most insecure creatures. The simple fact that she's wearing that outfit screams insecurity.
Speaker 2But I think, as far as the people calling him insecure, he also was the same one that tweeted They pull. you know, they dug his old tweets where he basically said when he gets insecure about stuff, he basically I don't know the exact words, but he basically deflects and then he goes and puts it off on others instead of addressing it within himself. You know, the internet wasted no time to pull up something he has said about himself being insecure, to kind of correlate it to the situation.
Speaker 1So so he would be insecure about usher, i'm assuming.
Speaker 2I guess, yeah, i would. I think people have deemed it to be he. It wasn't the outfit, it was the interaction with usher. But I think people think he's played it off to be the outfit when really you're really upset about he had at that show with usher. That's what I think it is. Well, that's what people are saying, not me. That's what people are saying, that they think it is. They don't think it was the outfit, they think it was actually usher.
Speaker 1And even if that is true, women are highly insecure of themselves. Like I was saying, her wearing that outfit, the way you explain what a pregnancy a pregnant woman goes through and what it does for her body She probably felt insecure about her body and what she was wearing And this is why she put it on. She put that, put it on and I get it. We all champion and support it. That's all social media is is a big insecure party. Everybody trauma bonds, like she, she I know she's been on this this skin care thing, like that's what she does. She's insecure about that. But because she, she Branded it in a different way. It's seen as her being brave, is seen as and I just don't like that. I don't like how we pick and choose What is insecure and what isn't like. Because I don't like something, now I'm insecure. Why can't I simply just not like it?
Speaker 2That's true.
Speaker 1I just don't like that shit. Yeah, period.
Speaker 2Yes now.
Views on Marriage and Relationships
Speaker 1Now, if Kiki was a stripper, i would, i would get it. That's, that's insecure. But I mean, what do we? what? what is a man supposed to do? Just sit back and just take the hits, just bow, bow, bow, because he's a man and he didn't marry her. I don't, i don't like that. I don't like that whole conversation either of like marriage relationships are are like below, but marriage is up here, but everybody in between is doing whatever the fuck they want to do, like I've seen, like I forget what people try to do.
Speaker 2Not that this is necessarily right, but I think they try to play it like marriage is a higher level of respect and relationship, because you like it's not a contract, but you like like you're married, like you're bonded by law, whatever happened.
Speaker 1That's a contract.
Speaker 2That's why people put so much like more emphasis on marriage because of The legality or the like this is your husband, this is you. To sign papers, whatever happy is what I think they do.
Speaker 1So do you agree with that? Do you do you side with that?
Speaker 2Um, i think and to some extent there is there is a different level of how you conduct yourself in a marriage than you do in a relationship. I think, yeah, i think marriage is is the higher level of a relationship. So it's certain things that you should handle differently in a marriage and you do a relationship, not necessarily this situation. I'm just saying in general. It's just certain things that you you wouldn't do in a relationship, that you would do married and vice versa. You know what I'm saying What's?
Speaker 1what's one of those things?
Speaker 2Just one, Um I don't know Um I'm going to have to think about it.
Speaker 1Yeah, we'll come back to it, because I don't. I don't see a difference. I don't believe there is a difference. The only difference is the government knows you're together. The only difference in my eyes? because I don't. It's the same way with money. Like money doesn't make you cool, a marriage doesn't make you more respected or more faithful, or more than any of these things.
Speaker 2So do you think maybe here's an example Do you think, for instance, instance, if someone cheated and you boyfriend and girlfriend, right, mm, hmm, do you think you're more inclined to leave that person as opposed to if you were married? you would try to work it out?
Speaker 1No, because I've tried to work it out in each of my relationships.
Speaker 2So what do you mean?
Speaker 1Like when I get cheated on, I try to work it out. I give them an opportunity to redeem themselves.
Speaker 2Gotcha. So, some people. but you do have people that you're going to, you're going to give to me, you're going to give a little more grace in a marriage than you are a person that's just your boyfriend and girlfriend. Some people, Yeah for sure.
Speaker 2Some people, cheating happens in a relationship boyfriend, girlfriend, you done, he don't respect you. Boom Bye, you have a marriage. You know you're thinking outside. Okay, we're married. We took this oath that we will be together through thick and thin. So I think some people are more inclined to work through that because you do have this better or worse Oh that you've gone into with each other, Whereas in a relationship y'all are just boyfriend and girlfriend. Y'all ain't made this oath or sign this agreement, or have you want to call it for marriage.
Speaker 1So people in relationships just get in relationships, that's that's. That's the gist of it. They don't, they don't make an oath to the person, they just I'm going to just be your boyfriend or girlfriend.
Speaker 2I'm not saying all people, but I'm saying it's not that it's. I mean there's more leniency in a relationship.
Speaker 1Really So how do you so? how do you get to the level of marriage if there's more leniency?
Speaker 2I mean, you're dating with the hopes of marriage most people but I think when it comes to to the things that you allow and the things that you're working through, i think in a marriage you'll probably put up with more than you would a relationship.
Speaker 1That is so interesting. Like I don't see, i don't see the difference. I think people put it on a pedestal. Like I don't see how that that can be. If, if you practice how you play, how can that be? Like if we, if we bullshit in practice, let's say, let's say, let's use your ideology, relationships are practice. So when we get in the game and we're bullshitting during practice, but when we get in the game, we're going to be Jordan All of a sudden. no, that's.
Speaker 2Look at Alan. I was saying he said practice right and zero championships.
Speaker 1Look at him now And you're right. He's the one he's known for ushering in no dress code. Ooh, that's like, come on, man, like nobody.
Speaker 2I just I know for me personally like being married. It's more. I would fight for things, probably more than I would if we were just dating. That's just me.
Speaker 1But why, though? Because it has nothing to do with love.
Speaker 2For me it feels like this is for better, for literally, for better or for worse, like no one said it was going to be perfect, like I have vowed that this is a person that I'm married, for better or worse, sickness and health, whatever the situation. So I feel like for me, i have to put forth more effort and really try to make it work if something went south. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1So do you feel like that? that speech that's still for better or for worse should be should be amended, because I don't think for better or for worse is speaking about infidelity or cheating.
Speaker 2Really No.
Speaker 1When it's interesting, when it if it's in the Bible, if that's a sin in the Bible, why would I stick to that on earth? Huh, If this is before God, if we make this promise before God and you cheat, clearly you don't give a fuck.
Speaker 2Cheat is the worst. This was deemed as the worst.
Speaker 1Yeah, i mean, if you survive cheating and I know I know there's other couples that have survived it if you can survive cheating, then you're okay with anything. In my opinion, hmm, you're okay with it. I don't feel like cheating is a mistake. It's a conscious effort And I don't know. I just don't feel like. I feel like if you stay, stay in the midst of that in the presence of that, just simply because you made a promise, it's like like where I just I just feel like we keep moving the goalposts and I feel like that low speech should be amended. It should be a footnote at the bottom of for better or for worse, it should be one. A does not mean infidelity. To be does not mean emotional, physical abuse. You know, it should be like different shit.
Speaker 2You're right Because now that you said it, that is true, because you know I could say this about cheating, but you're right. Like if I was getting my ass beat, it's no way that I could sit here. So you are right. I'm not going to deny that It's hard to. You're right. The goal line is moved because it's like what level of worse is acceptable for a person to continue to endure?
Speaker 1Yeah, and for a lot of people it's just like well, i made the promise and I'm like, yeah, but your health is at risk. True, on both sides, on cheating and physical abuse and emotional abuse and anything that is just deemed bad, like to me, i feel like worse is like not being able to communicate, not being able to compromise them, but inability to compromise It's shit like that. Not cheating, not getting my ass beat, not you kidnapping me and holding me hostage, holding my sexual energy hostage because you're mad at me, like that's not fucking worse.
Speaker 1That's, that's.
Speaker 2you're being manipulative, like it's crazy because when we went through marriage counseling, that was one thing that the preacher said you should never use sex as a reward or punishment. Right In a marriage Right.
Speaker 1But I feel like a lot of people do not. I feel like a lot of people do that because they bullshit in the relationship. They don't practice what they preach. So in the relationship you're just like Oh, sex is great, sex is great. Now we're married, i don't have time. You didn't, you didn't watch the clothes, you didn't do this, so you're not getting. Sex is like what?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1You switch it up and because people feel like marriage is just this ultimate thing. But the only thing that changes is your your concept on marriage or how you look at the relationship. If the relationship was so good that you married that person, why would you change that? True.
Speaker 1I just I don't. I don't like that And I feel like, with Kiki going back to Kiki and Darius I feel like it was trouble to begin with. I feel like it was trouble Like she wore that as a fucking dress, Like I don't give a shit what you say, what you do, I'm going out here having fun, Me and my girls. I'm gonna see usher, I'ma just live it up and I don't give a shit And clearly that's what it was, because they broke up. They broke up.
Speaker 1Yeah So we got one. We got one person that follow instructions.
Speaker 6I'm gonna remain anonymous, but I think Kiki Palmer's baby daddy was a bitch ass nigga, and him getting on line when he definitely could have said what he said to her is crazy. And that's all I gotta say on period.
Speaker 1So she said Kiki Palmer's boyfriend is a bitch ass nigga for addressing her publicly, and I'm not against that whatsoever. I think that is horrible. on you.
Speaker 2You just want us to address the fact that what Kiki did she wasn't the angel in this situation. No, accountability.
Speaker 1It should be. They murdered Chance the rapper for getting twerked on.
Speaker 2They did.
Speaker 1And for with a woman he doesn't even know. They tried to ruin that man's marriage. Since people hold it on such high regard, they tried to oh, you should leave him. They roasted his wife. There was like look at his wife. His wife is is that a woman, is that a? they went in. But just because there's a lot of people that say one thing doesn't mean it's right. And if you continue to do fuck shit and normalize it, then that still doesn't mean it's right. So just because Kiki go out here and got her ass cheeks out, that don't make it right. Like you're, you're in a relationship.
Speaker 2I would love to know if he would have said anything if, if her butt was covered. I would have loved to know if he would have addressed the interaction.
Speaker 1We would never know now.
Speaker 2I know I would, I just wonder.
Speaker 1But that's I do too, because I wouldn't have a problem. Me personally, i have a problem with what she had on, but I'm not dating a movie star, i'm not in Hollywood. But if this was a normal woman which I've seen in the club, it's just.
Speaker 2Right Which is not unusual for women these days that you and I just like you and I yeah like basic non celebrities to be walking out with stuff, or like that.
Speaker 1She doesn't be having these women fucked up out here thinking they keep on like, damn, what is y'all doing? So I've seen it and approach these women on on some. You know you want to dance, type deal, oh, i got a boyfriend, and I like that. I like that a lot. I like it when women say I got a boyfriend. I respect that. But if you put your hand around my neck and you know we getting it in, i'm thinking you ain't got nobody, you don't respect the dude that you with, you don't care about your relationship. But that's, that's a woman's idea of fun. I noticed that. I noticed that, like I'm going to just twerk on him and that's fun to me. I'm going to try to get a bunch of men to to like me or desire me because that's fun. It's weird. Like this is. It's like, why is that your idea of fun? Like, why isn't just being out listening to music, being in the vibe?
Speaker 2As you walk to the car.
Speaker 1Yeah, Now, now you're scared. Now, oh God, men are just so weird, like what.
Speaker 2I can say that I have learned, you know, and I've had these conversations with Jerome like y'all really be going through it with women because we just really be, we really just be all over the place And just yeah, look at us like What is what?
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2No, i, on behalf of women, i'm gonna apologize for some of our craziness because I have stepped back and been like dang. I see why they be like what the fuck, yeah, like what is it?
Speaker 1Like, what do you want You? literally, it's a Friday night. You got on these tight ass leggings and your midriff is out and you go in there to pay for gas. I'm offering, i'm like talking to you out. Hey, you know you look good, i'm not saying nothing crazy, i'm not like yo bitch, i'm not doing that. I'm like Hey, you know how you doing tonight. You know, nigga, get away from me, why, why, why? Just just say no, i'm good, you know, or just have the conversation. I'm not gonna throw you in a van and drive off. Like what the fuck is it? Yeah, like it's. It's a what is that? It's like that embedded fear And and it's right, it's just, i'm not saying that women should not be fearful, but it's just like at what point it is.
Speaker 2You kind of turn it off or engage. Yeah, just because he's speaking to you doesn't mean you got to go into defense mode.
Speaker 1Right, right, because a lot of women I speak to I just I tell women they're pretty whenever I see them.
Speaker 2I'm not trying to approach you, i'm not trying to, but I'm sure that's how most women take it, because in our mind it's like hot, it's like trying to holler.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2We're not used to just being given compliments from a man and him not wanting anything other than to tell you hey, that looks nice. Those are my shoes you got on. Your hair looks good.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's it, that's all we be trying to do Nothing else. Like I swear Now I'm not going to say on behalf of all men right not going to say that, but it's more of us than there are of them. The weirdo creeps. It's a, it's a small percentage. The ones, and then the ones that actually react or respond with violence. It's a very, very small percentage.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1So it's just like then you got to look at where you are, like, when these things happen, you got to remember where you are. So it's just weird to me, like, and it's difficult because I feel for my unborn kids they have to cipher through all this bullshit.
Challenges in Communication and Dating
Speaker 2It's funny you say this because my cousin had one on her Instagram story and she was like man, i just. She said, i just be, i'm just a bitch sometimes and I really feel bad because the man at the gas station he didn't even do anything, he just, you know, he spoke and I guess, asked, you know, offered maybe to pump her gas or something, and she was just really nasty And she was in the car, like I just I really need to get it together because I did not have to act like that. Yeah, i don't even know why I acted like that, like I don't need to be that mean. Now I feel bad Yeah.
Speaker 1And I don't know where it stems from. That's the thing. A lot of women don't even have shit that happened to them. I just feel like they hear a lot of shit, Yeah, And so it gets embedded in their brain. So when it does, when the opportunity does come, this is like what? Like what I just said.
Speaker 2I'm telling you we crazy. I have to admit that we are crazy sometimes. There's no rhyme or reason.
Speaker 1And then, on top of that here's the thing that kills me Y'all will purposely go out in the most fucked up pieces of clothing. It's not a Friday night, it's a Tuesday, and I don't know It's late night. You went to, you went to go to Taco Bell or some shit, i don't know. You got. You got your head wrapped. You got on. No, you went. You went to Publix. You went shopping on a Sunday or whatever. You got on leggings, just a regular t shirt. Your hair is wrapped and you went to go shopping And you are pissed off that a man said Hey, beautiful, you look good. And the first thing out of women's mouth is how the fuck do I look good? I look a mess. What are you?
Speaker 2looking at. I don't know how hard time we're taking compliments from men Like so if you look good, don't fucking talk to me.
Speaker 1When I don't look good, don't fucking talk to me, because you're lying. It's like yo just leave you alone And then, when we don't say anything, we gay. He must not like pussy, like what the fuck Y'all really.
Speaker 2Some situations y'all can't win. I'm sorry, y'all can't, and it's, it's. This is just the way it could be. It's crumbling. I'm sorry, but y'all cannot win. I was so sad.
Speaker 1I seen a video. It was this lady. She was admitting that she likes anime. She was like I just found a new love for anime And I went on this date with this guy and he loved anime. And if you don't know anything about anime, anime people who like people who like anime are very animated. So they're very. They do cosplay, they go to these conventions and they're very engaging. And she tells the story and she's just like, yeah, we're in the middle of some restaurant and he starts saying certain shit and like reenacting, like doing the Naruto run, like throwing his own back, so doing shit like that. And she was embarrassed and I'm just like yo. She said I go to them. After that Like I couldn't, i couldn't fuck with, so I'm just like So, instead of just liking or trying to understand this man, knowing that you just got involved in anime.
Speaker 2Why are you judging him?
Speaker 1Why are you judging this dude and you go to him because he has a passion? That's fucked up.
Speaker 2I don't think I would have go to him. I think I would have been weak. I would have been better, but I would have been like weak after it was all said and done. After it was all said and done, i think I would have been weaker than I like. But it's like you've said in the past on an episode to can we get to the level of being an adult where we just tell people why we no longer want to talk to them instead of going to say I like how you act, like Naruto in the restaurant? I don't think this is going to work. It was nice meeting you. Thank you for the time we had. I'm going to go my my. We need should go our separate way.
Speaker 1Now I'm not stalking your damn page. Now I'm not looking for you you know wherever. So, ok, cool, you don't fuck with me. I did, i fucked up. I dropped the ball because I did the Naruto run. I fucked it. I can live with that Versus. I'm calling you. I'm thinking we had a great time, it was fun, we enjoyed it. We laughed because you were laughing, but I didn't know that you were laughing because you're uncomfortable and you had traumas in the past where you don't know how to deal with these traumas. So you laugh and uncomfortable. So, like, who the fuck is thinking about that?
Speaker 2Like yeah, I think it's easier to ghost people than it just being an adult and tell someone how you feel.
Speaker 1I think nobody and I'm not going to say nobody think is a very small percentage of people, men and women, who've actually said hey, i'm not fucking with you because X, y and Z, i think again because a number of people more people do it than not. Yes it's acceptable.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 1And you come to expect it now. That's why people have anxiety nowadays Like damn, was I cool enough? Like, oh shit, damn you, kiki and Darius, we didn't broke down relationships. Why I got P in the pool Like, come on man, just accountability as a whole on both sides needs to happen.
Speaker 2Yes, it does It does like y'all do better. Let's, let's start now. Yes, be a better adult, learn how to communicate Like we tell little kids. Use your words, yeah, use your words to say what you mean and mean what you say for sure, because putting these people on block and they don't think you dad trying to figure out why they can't get in touch with you because you don't block them. You don't block them on everything. Instead of telling them look, it's just not going to work, That's it. We must do better.
Speaker 1That's it. Like you can't send me your titties and you and your underwear and stuff and then just block me, like that's just, that's wild to me.
Speaker 2I'm trying to tell you people are weird. Thank God I'm married. I would not want to be in a dating world because the more I hear, the more I would just be single with these two kids that have self the rest of my life because what the stuff that people be going through?
Speaker 9Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Then the face time.
Speaker 2Better or worse?
Speaker 1And then you got to deal with the stories, like you. Oh, i didn't answer the phone because I couldn't. I was here, or I was sleep or I was Oh boy.
Speaker 2It's too much, i'm so I'm gonna need you to go on on get married, another relationship either, because this is so much.
Speaker 1And it's not even, it's, not even like Like they're trying to hide. It is, it's, it's. It's never like hitting it's in your face. Your face like it's four o'clock, what you mean? you sleep from four o'clock to two in the morning, like what the fuck? What are you talking? so you think I'm stupid. Like that's what you think I got you, got you, i'm done. Didn't turn off your location.
Speaker 2Yeah, that in the dating world. I'm sorry. I hope you all find a good, a good one for you, because honey.
Speaker 1I'm not sorry for them.
Speaker 2You think they didn't turn down the good ones? Yes, wrong with the good.
Speaker 1Okay, yes, they have karate, chopped, blocked, exed, all the good ones. You, you only get one shot. Like Eminem said, you only get one shot. You know he don't come back. I've never seen LeBron ain't going back to Cleveland. Lebron ain't going back to Miami. Lebron, you get one shot. Yeah one season. It's a playoff game. You know it is what it is It's a football playoff game.
Speaker 2That's it.
Speaker 1You don't come back next season.
Speaker 2You know what? Tim's with your shorts? now We're done. I'm ghosting you Because it's 100 degrees and you put on Tim's with your jeans, another jeans, we can't be together.
Speaker 1The optics looks nuts.
Speaker 9We're done.
Speaker 2How nice life.
Speaker 1Fucking jeans with. Tim's. Oh my god, we got to stop, man. We got to stop. We got to do better. Like you said, we got to adult, we got to be better adults, man.
Speaker 2We got to be better adults. We got to be better adults? Yes, we do, in all aspects, i swear. Relationships Work, everything. Because when I tell you I don't know how much more I have in me to deal with feelings on the job, my meter of having to deal with everyone's feelings I'm just about to tip over the top. Yo what they talking Multiple times a week. Aren't we all adults here?
Speaker 1That's what I learned in like shifting from manual labor, from manual to manual labor, from office work. It's a lot of feelings involved in office work. It's a lot of, if I like, you type of mentality versus an actual skill set, like manual labor requires you have to think so much That you don't have time to feel Right, like we got to get this shit done And then, after we're done, i'm tired And I'm too tired to actually feel like if I like this motherfucker that I just finished his work with.
Speaker 2Like how do you beef with somebody and you work from home Internet?
Speaker 1friends.
Speaker 2Story of my life. It's crazy.
Speaker 1It's crazy, it's just. it's the same with people who really have internet friends. Like it's.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 1This is my friend and their virtual friends and that to me, that concept is still nuts. To me, it's people that I have on my, on my social media. I've never met but interact with me, never asked for my number, never tried to call me, never anything.
Speaker 2Never met them in person. Ever, That's just your social media friend that you have been Facebook friends with for seven years. Yeah, we ain't never met. We kicky on a post.
Speaker 1We comment.
Speaker 2That's what it is, yeah.
Speaker 1And no intentions of actually meeting them. Ever In life. If it's not a post involved, fuck it crazy. The world we're going into is nuts And, i'm afraid, low key, because you know they. They started with flying cars, the first flying cars.
Speaker 2Saw that and I just don't know how to feel about that.
Speaker 1I don't know why they call them flying cars, like why aren't they just called airplanes? I just don't understand that. Like it's like calling a chicken nugget and a chicken tender. It's. It's like a Chicken nugget. Yeah, like all that shit is just a fucking bonus. They call it boneless wings and but it's a chicken nugget, it's a chicken tender. Like stop playing with me.
Speaker 2Yeah that, that that hole. Yeah, it's weird. It's just an airplane, it's it now. It's a flying car, okay.
Speaker 1I'm fucking dumb.
Speaker 2Is it gonna do different that a plane doesn't do?
Speaker 1Your ears still gonna pop, so I don't understand What's happening.
Speaker 2You go have four wheels come out when you go to land. You don't just drive into a parking spot.
Speaker 1I just I don't they think. They think we're dumb. They think we're dumb.
Speaker 2But I don't, i don't understand it the first.
Speaker 1First one's coming out 300k.
Speaker 2If you got it, you can get the first flying car so Okay, so cuz, when you fly, like air traffic control tells you Like where it's in the air right. Yeah, how's this whole cargo work? You just what? can they run into a plane?
Speaker 1Listen, you can't even listen in the air. Yeah, I'm sure there's gonna be a lot.
Speaker 2What about there gonna be a car controller like cabin control, air pressure?
Self-Driving Cars and the Pregnancy
Speaker 1I need all that. I need all those questions answered before I hop in anybody. I'm gonna be so pissed off if I hop in a car and that shit just jump in the air, like I don't want that, like that's not what I'm here for, i just it's too many, it's gonna be so many and I hate to say it, but it's gonna be so many casualties With this bullshit. It's gonna be similar to the, to the fucking submersive shit. Like you. You can't even fly a drone without the FAA, like knowing. That's why you can't fly drones at games. You can't fly drones at a certain height because you can collide with an airplane. So Why the fuck will you give civilians cars of quote-unquote flying cars? I don't know.
Speaker 1Right, but apparently I've seen this. I've seen this other thing On tiktok. There was this dude that was saying Billionaires, millionaires and billionaires have a fascination with tubes. They like the this, yeah, tubes. So This immersive was a tube. The Elon Musk Flying into space was in a tube. Like all these people have a fascination with tubes. A car is a, an airplane is a tube With wings on it. Like I just never thought about that shit. Like yo, rich white people love tubes. They love a tube. Yeah it's fucking crazy to me. Yeah, I.
Speaker 2Just I need our questions answer about this flag, this flying car, though.
Speaker 1I just don't want that shit to hit my. Don't hit the house, don't hit me while I'm on out on 95 like relax bro.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's, that's just whatever, Make something else?
Speaker 1I doubt, i doubt, i doubt it. This is just gonna take off. It was just, we just got the self-driving car.
Speaker 2Yes, would you. If you were to get a car that could self-drive, would you? would you let it self-drive? Yeah?
Speaker 1Okay, for sure, cuz I wanted, i know cuz I was. I was on Shout out to two ill chicks, i was on a show Doing today, was doing a shit on stereo app, and they was asking What is What's something that that that's dangerous sexually, that you wouldn't, wouldn't really want to partake in, and I was like roadhead, road head is dangerous as fuck. And they disagree with that and I feel like, because if I had a self-driving car, that's what what I would do.
Speaker 2Okay, I just.
Speaker 1That's what it's for. I'm not finishing up. There was like, oh, you can't control the car And then she shouldn't be slurping you that much and I'm just like fam is, i'm older now. I was dumb when I was young. That was stupid, dangerous, like It's dangerous. Okay, i thought that was some fly-ass shit like oh yeah, driving down 95, getting slurped up, just sitting back right. It's dangerous, all right. She could choke, like it could be.
Speaker 2You could right.
Speaker 1Yeah, it could be a really bad bad. It's like sneezing You can't sneeze with your eyes open. Some shit you just should not do, man, and that's one of them. I don't think roadhead is, but if I had, if I had the ability to get a car, because a lot of them are, it's becoming like power windows now, like a lot of them are starting to have that technology in them.
Speaker 2Yeah, my car isn't self-driving, but like it's got, like the lane assistance. Oh yeah, so I can. It tells you don't take your hands off the wheel. But if I'm on the, you know, if I'm on the interstate and it starts veering to towards the line, it'll you'll see the wheel move to get it back in the middle of the lane so you can never get roll ahead Your car.
Speaker 1Be like That would be nuts, i couldn't take that. I can't take my hand off the wheel. The room upside down. The man y'all wow. Boy Y'all wow. I fuck with that way.

Uh-huh, with Kobe Bryant on the cover, mamba moments is likely his own starring version of last year's Michael Jordan mode. Players should expect to relive several of Bryant's best moments, perhaps even replan a game from last year's Jordan mode, in which Jordan and Bryant played each other. Only this time will be from Kobe's point of view Fire.

Her melodies, like if you've never made music before, you have to understand how difficult it is to create a melody that's catchy enough and fits the theme of the song.

Speaker 9I want you to remember.
Speaker 1Let go, let go, please give me a kiss, hey, hey, i want you to remember.
Speaker 2Hey, no one's hiding, my best friend forgot my birthday. I know that sometimes people forget birthdays and I shouldn't be upset, but I feel upset about this. I just turned 28, and she's supposedly my best friend and because of this, on top of recent events, it's starting to feel like we aren't. Typically, i don't make a huge deal about my birthday, since I keep my friend groups small and I don't like huge parties for myself. Earlier this year I flew up to Colorado, where she lived, and visited her for her birthday. We had a bunch of fun together and did all the bestie things for birthdays. Since then she broke up with her boyfriend and moved back to her parents' house in Dallas. She works from home and I tell her all the time she should come visit, but she hasn't. She has been stuck up her friend from high schools, but since then We've drifted away on texting. Everything on socials has been her and Amy doing whatever they want to do in Dallas.
Speaker 2Side note when I found out my best friend got beat by her ex-fiance eight years ago, i hopped on a plane to Dallas while I was on my vacation to go help her. Did Amy from Chicago do that? No, she called me and told me what happened and she thought she was being over-dramatic. Anyway, we didn't text much this week except for Monday and I was the last to text her. I figured she might be coming up with something to surprise me, like coming down to Houston, but as the days came and went, it was crickets. Not even a question or a mention of my birthday.
Speaker 2As the day came, i got no text or call or socials posts from her about my birthday. I posted about my birthday with my girlfriend, who made my day super great. Anyway, i got lots of birthday wishes from the people I care about most, minus my best friend who was active on socials and didn't see my stories but posted a story herself of her and Amy at the pool. It's now the day after and I'm wondering if I should text her, if at all, or what to say if I do So, how do you feel you have a best friend? What steak do you put into best friends and birthdays?
Speaker 2Would, you be upset if your best friend did not acknowledge you on your birthday.
Speaker 1So not acknowledged and forgetting, are those synonymous?
Speaker 2Well, no, but we're, we'll say she forgot.
Speaker 1Forgot my birthday.
Speaker 2That's what we'll say How would you feel if your bestie forgot your birthday? Didn't say anything not that you're expecting a gift Didn't send your text, didn't call you, didn't face time, You did nothing to acknowledge that it was your birthday.
Speaker 1I think, I think some I would hope something had happened, Oh something traumatic. Like OK, life changing, life altering. Like it's You can't pick up the phone and text like that, That's just. That's just me. In general, though, I feel that way in regards in relationships too. Like if you're busy, just pick up the phone and text. There's nobody like standing over you. Like oh, you can't, You better not have your phone. Like I know, some jobs. You can't have your phone.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1But I know you have your phone, so I just feel like a simple text would do. I don't know what's going on. I feel like this is more of a I hate to do this. I feel like it was more of a woman's Thing, because men, we don't get too caught up in that We, as far as birthdays are concerned, like I see, i feel like it's more women who get caught up in like oh you never come and visit. Oh you never come and do this, oh you never. And I'm always doing like women keep tallies and like oh, i did this, i did this, i did this and we are friends. Like what the fuck?
Speaker 2So would you if you're best friend? you still don't. It's the next day. Do you bring it up or you go on about your business?
Speaker 1as a man, I go on about my business. They don't bother me, That shit don't stop my day. But at the same time you know eventually, at some point you're going to, you're going to ask, but it's not going to be from a hostile standpoint Like where the fuck was you?
Speaker 2It sounds like in this situation it sounds like maybe the person that wrote this is to them that's their best friend, but it's not reciprocated. It doesn't sound like the other girl really deems her as best friend anymore. Not just about a birthday, but it seems like they're drifting, grown apart and it just So women and women do that.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, y'all take heed to a lot of that. Bitch forgot my birthday, like OK, like she got three kids, what the fuck.
Speaker 2I don't want to put a lot of stake Like you don't really hear men say a lot, That's my best friend, I don't. I mean they might casually, but it's not a whole lot of best friend talk And I think women like you say we put a lot of stake into another female being your best friend And if they they're calling you or texting you or showing up at your job, What? Yeah?
Speaker 1Like it's like another nigga, like your question.
Speaker 2It's we really. Are you my best friend? Yeah.
Speaker 1Are you in cash? That means $20. Like, what the fuck does they got to do with us being friends. Like now I feel like women, just They, i don't know. Their idea of friendship is weird to me.
Speaker 2Like it's very different from a man. You don't have to talk every day. That's still your boy. Y'all will pick up where y'all left off, like nothing.
Speaker 1It's fucking life. You have shit to do, you have a wife, you have kids, you have a job, you have hobbies, you have other interests. You I don't expect you to be waiting on me hand and foot to call, like the fuck, i'll talk to you on the game. Like, why do I need to call you like that? But that's the thing with y'all. Like y'all would be besties, y'all would spend lunch together at work and then get off of work and call and text that same person and then get home, be cooking dinner talking to that same person and then get off the phone talking about that person to your husband. Like nobody gives a fuck about this friend. Like bro, get out of my face. You just spent all day talking to this person, so why, like men, don't do that shit. We?
Speaker 2don't even know. No, I don't listen, man.
Discussion on the Hierarchy of Relationships
Speaker 1No, if I see you, if I see you at the in the Burger King line, then cool. But other than that I'm not going to go out of my way Like, oh we're just very different. How, how, how's the kids nigga Like you ain't tell me this. This little nigga had a birthday, cuz, like we don't give a fuck, we don't even know what our kids when I, we don't know our best friends kids birthday, we don't And it's true, Male friends male friends.
Speaker 2Yeah, we don't.
Speaker 1We don't know, yeah, we don't care. We don't know when our best friends spouses birthday is an adversary. Any of those dates, that, the shit that y'all just deemed Just important, it's really unimportant to us. I know you go into the gym or not. Like we going out or not. You send a hop on the game or not Or not. Like what the fuck? We don't give two shits about.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah an anniversary, like it, and they can tell us to do like yo, man, i'm my anniversary this weekend. Oh I, that's just that. Just lets us know. Not to you not going to be on the game. Yeah, you're not going to be on the game this weekend, that's it. Yeah, we're not remembering it like, oh shit, is my niggas big anniversary? Like we're not doing that, we're not making a post.
Speaker 2No, but it just sounds like here This that's such a best friend. It would just hate your friend Fucking.
Speaker 1why is that not her friend? It is her friend.
Speaker 2It wasn't her, i said her best friend. It is her best friend, that is your friend Don't want to be interacted with her, she won't even come see her. Then you're definitely best friend.
Speaker 1Come on, All this technology obviously. All this technology.
Speaker 2She was busy with Amy. Amy and her new best friend.
Speaker 1And y'all be jealous, like when they get another best friend too. Y'all be happy. Now ain't nobody replacing me, like what.
Speaker 2Yeah, fair, fair assessment.
Speaker 1Replacing nigga. You live across the country.
Speaker 2Like She goes back to being crazy.
Speaker 1Inflation. I work at Starbucks, nigga. Like what the fuck do you? You just think I'm gonna get a plane ticket. Like Shit is hard out here, bro, like what you talking about right now.
Speaker 2Yeah, so good luck to them.
Speaker 1I don't even know if it's good luck. I just I feel bad for some women sometimes, like that shit is treacherous, like so Okay, do you, do you put your your best friend? Like, if you have a best friend that's a woman, where does she stand And in the patriarch of your life? So let's say, let's throw family in there. You're immediate, you're immediate family. Then you have your your family, then you have your spouse, you have then, you throw in. You throw in your best friend, or whatever.
Speaker 2So how is that patriarch set up Who's first, second, third, fourth, I mean I think you know your spouse is first You're spousing your kids, then your immediate family And then some some best friends. Most best friends are now your family. You know you've you've had this long term friendship, some of them like I have some friends that I've had since I was like probably seven, six or seven that we, we are still close. So now to me that's like you're my family. Now we're not just, it's deeper than that, like we know each other's deepest, darkest secrets. Like we've been through life, death, marriages, baby shit. Like we've been through so much together that now you're like my family. So I will put them right up there with, like my immediate family. Let's say you're not married.
Speaker 1How does that patriarch go? Um, probably. I mean, just take a spouse out and I would say, probably your immediate family and then your best friends.
Speaker 2Where's the spouse sitting in that? in that he's, he's under the best friend You said.
Speaker 1I said if you're not married, yeah, so where's?
Speaker 2the spouse. Huh, where's the spouse?
Speaker 1So you said immediate family. It's one if you're not married, there is no spouse. Are you saying a significant?
Speaker 2other, yeah Significant other spouse, whatever. Um, I feel like it's kind of a town with your significant other in your family, Like it kind of it's hard to. it's hard to draw the line between them, especially if you've been together for forever. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, It's just like, uh, I kind of got to put you on. I can't. if it comes, you wouldn't be able to choose, Like, yeah, I can't choose between you or my family.
Speaker 1Who you putting down as emergency contact when you're not married? My mom, okay, so family is first There you go. My mom will go first and then my significant other is my family.
Speaker 2My mom will go first and then my significant other. If I'm married, it's my spouse and then my mom.
Speaker 1Gotcha, gotcha. Okay, so it's the flip floppy. So so the bestie, the bestie is kind of falls. Third Retro in retrospect.
Speaker 2Yes, okay, make sense.
Speaker 1Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, Now that I'm thinking about the how my patriarch is, is set up? Yeah, cause it's when I was single single like not dating anybody my bestie was up there Like right Up there, Everything was about her, Like yeah yeah. But after I I mean you get older, you introduce different people and it's just like and there's no beef or nothing like that, it's just.
Speaker 2it's just the natural progression of life, so it's gotta play your position. you know the people that are in your life.
Speaker 1Yeah, for sure, for sure.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 1Okay, i was always curious from a woman's perspective, like how, how that works, to actually hear that you, you put someone in number one spot AKA wrong. That's fire, that's fucking fire right there. I like that, i like that, oh man, oh shit, what else? Oh, oh, oh I ain't got nothing else. White people have to. They have to be controlled. They have to, they have to be stopped. What happened.
Speaker 1They have come out with this term called broke bougie. So broke bougie is really balling on the budget. Oh, but since white people have gotten their hands on it, they think it's this new term of they, like they invented it. Oh, broke bougie is where pretty much you live in paycheck to paycheck. That's all that it is due to inflation.
Speaker 1You're still capable or able to do certain shit or shop at certain places, but your funds are low, like you, you, you still shop at Publix when you know you should be shopping at a fucking Pickley Wiggly or save a lot or some shit.
Speaker 1Yeah, letal, you should be shopping there, but you still go to Publix because you're broke, bougie. You still go on vacations, but you're really broke, you know it's. It's broke, bougie, and I just need white people to stop. Just cut it out. We've, we've been here. Okay, this I hate to say it, but this is our shit. We're good at making four quarters last three weeks. We're good at that. We're very good at that. We don't need your middle class American ass coming in here and trying to coin a term that has been around for ever in our world. We will eat Chinese food, we will eat noodles and noodles, just to go on a fucking trip. Y'all don't know that life Y'all not built like that. Y'all cry to your government officials which is what we should be doing, but y'all cry to your government officials. Y'all bitch and moan about pay raises, shit that we should be doing. Y'all just do a whole bunch of shit And then, when shit doesn't go your way, you want to coin a term that we proudly the blacks have have accepted.
Speaker 1We live that shit.
Speaker 2Live that life.
Speaker 1Daily. It's a bunch of niggas and Gucci. that's broke as fuck A bunch.
Speaker 2Brandy's in a Facebook group called broke and bougie, and it's very diverse.
Speaker 1It was very, very diverse. I just need y'all to stop. Just cut it out. We hear we live this. We've been balling on the budget since our inception, okay. Yes, yes. Y'all niggas is fraud, niggas, and that's that shit I don't like. Okay, thank you, that's, that's it. I don't take your, your, your, your boots, scooting boogie asses.
Speaker 2Not the boots scooting Out of here.
Speaker 1My gosh, don't give a fuck if you have a tiki talk. I don't give a fuck about any of that shit. All right, we don't feel bad for you and your quote unquote broken bougie asses. Since our lane, we got this shit on lock. And with that being said, Hey man. That's your art, What's your. what's your music pick for this week?
Speaker 2I am going with flow. They just dropped an EP and the song that I'm going with is entitled three of us flow.
Speaker 1That's a day white. No, they black right.
Speaker 2Right, it's a girl group, it's three girls. Okay, very talented.
Speaker 1Okay, okay, i gotta, i gotta listen to them because this, i think this is like the second time you had picked them.
Speaker 2Yeah, actually me up, put me onto them. I really liked their music. They're pretty talented.
Speaker 1Okay, i thought there was like a pop group. That's why I am very give.
Speaker 2They give R&B vaps. Okay, this track is talking about. Basically, a dude is playing two girls and she, dared, dared, coming from the perspective, say a look girl. He playing all of us, not the hate.
Speaker 1That sounds like a little bit of hate to me. I don't like that. I'm definitely going to give it a listen. I like it when they try to make it sound melodic. That's a little bit.
Speaker 2What you going with.
Speaker 1I'm going with Chi someone. CHI No. CHI. CHE, che, yeah, che, and the song is called someone Yeah.
Speaker 7But, yeah that's it.
Speaker 1That's all, man. Y'all be great out there. Don't go into any tubes When you get some money. Don't let social media dictate your relationships, man. Just find someone who likes the same shit as you and just don't let them go. Yes, relationships take work.
Speaker 2Yes relationships take time.
Speaker 1Just find somebody that you you willing to put in that time and that work with man. Don't let social media dictate to you how you should dress, how you should feel about the way somebody's dressing. That's the problem with society today. There is no critical thinking. Nobody can think for themselves. Everybody's influenced by somebody else. I get that, but at the same fucking time, come the fuck on. You know what you like, you know what you want, you know what you need to survive out here. And if having her booty cheeks out made Kiki feel great, that doesn't mean it's going to make you feel great when you wear the same thing. So just make sure you're living your life the way you want to live it, because you only get one of these motherfuckers as far as I'm concerned. So you don't want to. You don't want to. You know. Lose out, man, because love is a beautiful thing, it's wonderful, it's awesome. But at the same time, i get why some people say Hey man, I only live once.
Speaker 1I'm gonna go fuck this chick over here too. I get it. I get it. I get both sides Just know that there is some sort of accountability that needs to take place. That's it. That's it. That's all we're going to get up out of here. Man, Just remember one day life's going flash before your eyes. Just make sure it's worth watching God grind and them goals a bye guys and we out of here, man, i'ma play this shit, the doubt, okay, okay, okay.
