Steve Harvey's Perception of Infidelity

Speaker 1

You are now rocking with the brunch hour podcast , the best hour of the day .

Speaker 2

It's the only podcast I listen to .

Speaker 1

With your host , the Styles . What's up ? Good people listen . Before I even say hello , I switch it up with the salutation a little bit . I want to say thank you . This is episode 11 , and what I said at the beginning of the season was I was just going to do 10 . We just doing 10 and we out of here , but I have a couple of people that I need to sit down with before we get up out of here , so we'll probably push it to 15 , probably no more than 15 . And now , yo , thanks for joining us .

Speaker 1

I hope your Monday is okay , or whenever you listen into this . If you drive in , you know the rules . Keep your eyes on the road . I'm not going to say anything that's going to inside a riot I don't think . I'm pretty sure that I won't . However , yeah , and if you know somebody that knows somebody , send a link to this podcast , you know , especially if they're like you and you're listening to this , so that y'all have something to talk about . Not that you don't have anything to talk about right now , but anyway , you know me and my bullshit , alright . So boom , check it , let's get right to it .

Speaker 1

I want to talk about Steve Harvey real quick , right , because the internet right now was handing him his ass right in bit form . And I have a question . I have a question why are we clowning this dude for his wife cheating on him ? Right , because , when you think about it , probably 98% of the people that are clowning this dude for his wife cheating on him have been cheating on him Like Weevy . We thought something that you can necessarily control , right ? So maybe we should look in the mirror and be like , oh we really , you know , we looking at this nigga like that , but at the same time , we were looking at him like he's infallible , like it can't , or his relationship is infallible , we can't happen to him because he wrote a book . Trust me , on the other side of this is another bag waiting for this nigga . It's definitely another bag waiting for this nigga , and we already know how Steve Harvey is built , right ? So when he starts dating again or smashing chicks or taking time to himself , you know , I'm sure that his attitude is going to change .

Speaker 1

No rice , no champagne . You don't eat nothing , nothing . You ain't getting jack shit off this plate , nothing Incredibly guarded right . And then he'll probably make a sequel to the book . You know , think like a woman , act like a man type of shit and you put it out for the dudes . You know what it is . So let's leave that man alone . Man , his relationship wasn't infallible , wasn't bullet proof , but trust him , believe he got enough money to buy happiness . Don't come from my neck with the . You can't buy it , shut the fuck up . You ain't got money . So if you don't have money , you don't know that you can buy . You can't buy . I've never had enough money to know whether I can or can't buy happiness , so I'm going to lean on the other side of things . Give me some money , I'll be happy , but until then , no rice , no champagne . You don't eat nothing . I used to be in love with this bitch . They mean J the fuck with her . No more . Now I fuck with Tango Ray , tango Ray .

Speaker 2

Hey , yo watch them . Do we need two shots ? It's a combo .

Speaker 1

All right , before I confuse the fuck out of y'all , listen , there's no brunch hour episode this week . However , I do have one in the clip . Actually , I have a brunch hour episode in the clip too . I just wanted to save it . But this right here is my sis again , natisse from Talk Nice , t's right . So we going to chop this up real quick , get out of . We did get a really good , positive response from the first episode that we dropped with her . No bullshit now it was all about dragging her back outside . You know , because she's still . You know , it's the self doubt thing right now . The hot thing she's told . A few other people think she's told . So let's get to it .

Speaker 2

I'm sorry that you don't . I'm sorry that you don't . You reached the T's , the host from Top 9's T's . Unfortunately I can't take your call right now , but please sit back and relax and enjoy yourself . So I'm not even gonna lie every time I do this . I'm just gonna say I'm more than just gonna win . Lol . It is more to factor myself . I have such a hard time trying to pick a topic because I'm overthinking everything at once Per usual , like my normal self . But today I'm gonna get in the topic of myself , why I'm like this . I'm gonna try to debunk myself and hopefully , along the way , you guys can help me unravel some of my layers that I have Since I am I very much so believe in my horoscope .

Speaker 2

I believe that it takes a part into everybody , whether people want to believe it or not , because if you do rig it up one day and it all fits the shoe , I believe that at some point it's true . I'm a Gemini . We love that Jewel and Gemini shout out them the best . So I find it sometimes a bit hard to be very decisive . I eat me ever trying to open up with a great opening and it's just gonna be solid . It takes me a long time to do little things and I really didn't understand it about myself until other people pointed it out . I read my horoscope the other day with one of my friends and it said that I was indecisive . And she literally looked at me and she was like that's dead fucking serious , you know , and I didn't believe her at first Because I felt like I'm a pretty decisive person when it comes , I guess , to specifically group things as I look back on it , but for myself personally , no , I'm very indecisive . It may take me a long time and I think , along with that , because I am a duality with my personality my ADHD be kicking in , definitely , especially at work , and my coworkers love to remind me of that . It's the funniest thing because I've never realized the old 25 years of my life and maybe twice literally Sal has pointed it out like you're 80 , 80 is kicking in . You need to bring it back . And it was . I felt like somebody turned the light bulb on , like you just turn the light switch on . I'm like damn , I never knew that and nobody's ever pointed out . They just always told me , but no one's ever actually sat me down and was like , no , this is what I'm talking about right here . We was just talking about one thing and now you're on something else , Like mm that eight . Okay , you got that . That hurt . But with that I think I may take a long time to make my decisions .

Speaker 2

I make thorough decisions once I finally do come to a decision Whether that be the most simple thing , just trying to get something to eat , if I'm not under pressure of my friends . Honestly , I'm going to be honest with you guys , it'll take me about an hour and a half to figure out what I want to eat and then , on top of that , it's going to be an hour and a half away . That's just who I am . That's just how I rock . Unfortunately , if anybody else out there agrees with me or has this tendency to want to drive far to get their food , I would love to know , because nobody I know does it and I get crazy looks every single time , which is okay . But I'm willing to travel for quality . I am , and that's okay .

Speaker 2

But with that being said , with decision making , people sometimes Example people sometimes can take that two different ways , depending on how they grew up . My favorite example always is in high school . I'm a very easygoing person , open , you name it , I am . It's great I'm able to have multiple different groups of friends and still be myself at the end of the day .

Speaker 2

Not saying that nobody else can , but growing up that was so taboo for a lot of people . People couldn't understand me being in groups with one people when that person hated the other person and I'm like I can just understand both sides , which I feel is a good characteristic . But looking from the other person's perspective I could understand how some people might have not seen me as being loyal , hence why I geminized to get the . You know they're not loyal or something like that . But that's not true . I would like for people to kind of see it as I'm super duper loyal . Like I'm loyal to every single body here . Like I know you don't like X , y and Z , so I'm not going to bring you talk to you about A , b or C . Like I definitely know people's boundaries and I definitely respect them Probably more than others do and realize , which can sometimes when I sit back at myself and I have to deal with the situations because I am like that , sometimes it's fulfilling because a person I can explain that and the person will take that in and it'll be satisfying . We understand that , or on most cases I get cursed out because , bitch , who's fucking friend are you ? But like I don't operate like that . I never did and I probably never will . But that's okay , because that's you know . More friends the better , as long as we keep them all separated if they need to be .

Speaker 2

What else do I love about me ? You see it right there in there . That's just an issue . That's therapy needing 101 people . You can't name three things that you love about yourself within 20 seconds . It's okay . Therapy is okay too . We need it as well , but not right now . We'll work on that when we get to work on that .

Speaker 2

Also , another big part of me probably choosing a partner . A lot of people around my age I'm turning 26 this year A lot of people are settling down , and it's sometimes me personally . It's just that's nice to look at , it's nice to know . I don't know if I necessarily want that again and I have to be real with myself and that's kind of first time I saw that out loud . But yeah , it's a lot to take in , especially because I'm usually the friend that everybody comes to about their issues and relationship problems , which I do love because I do have a degree in therapy and psychology , so I love to get to use it . But for me , to put myself in that situation , I think I'm not going to be able to do that , only because I know so much about it and I think that hinders me from a lot and accepting a lot . But so far I'm OK with it .

Speaker 2

Now , if I have my mother , my aunt , sit me down one more time talking about some , when am I going to get a godchild or a grandbaby , or what's going on with you ?

Speaker 2

What do you like ?

Speaker 2

Now , if I get one more of those conversations , I'm probably going to be pissed and I would love to know if anyone else's families are kind of pressuring them , not actively , but just kind of passively like , oh , what's going on ? Are you talking to anybody ? I would love to know if anybody else is going through that . Or is everybody just cuffed up ? Because 85% of my timeline , for the most part , is cuffed up , which I love to see and support at all , and I better be invited to everyone's baby showers and weddings preferably weddings than baby showers . But that's whatever . It's just being hard on me , because I'm going to be honest with you all right now . Still I cannot come to a concrete idea of what I am or what had to explain myself a little bit better . What With this . That's OK , and I feel like a lot of people do go through that and I think , hopefully , doing this podcast , that I'm able to be able to say three things I like about myself better and hopefully help somebody else be able to do the same thing within a timely fashion .

Speaker 2

Actually , today I'm going to keep it cute , keep it sweet and actually we have one person , my favorite producer , my only producer , the one who bullies me the most , who means the most .

Exploring Astrology and Personal Characteristics

Speaker 2

Here we have Stiles , just to talk a little bit about himself and his EO tendencies .

Speaker 1

Is it EO tendencies or EO synchro ?

Speaker 2

Leo , as in your sign . I understand . I get that . I don't want to do that with you . Ok , I'll just check you see . But that's the Leo in you , yeah , do you think your sign defines you Not 100% , but just has a lot of similar qualities ?

Speaker 1

I think it's 99% on point . Holy shit , 99% . Oh man y'all .

Speaker 2

On the mic , confirming that his astrology shut up , that his horoscope actually relates and might have some meaning for him .

Speaker 1

So for me , I think .

Speaker 2

Notarizes .

Speaker 1

Yeah , there we go For me . What happened was I think that I was scared into it because I flipped the middle finger all the time to the shit when I was younger , like fuck this shit , that shit is garbage , blah , blah , blah , blah , blah .

Speaker 1

But then when I started to read up on it and then started to match my EO synchrocies to it , I was like they got this shit , it's down . Like this is me , kind of locked down . Yeah , this is me . And a lot of times I would turn my nose up to it simply because people would be like well , not people , but women would be like oh , I don't like someone so-and-so .

Speaker 2

And I'd be like hey , rising sign at the square .

Speaker 1

yes , you know , ask me my sign . My sign is a Leo and it faces get all turned up and shit and I'm like Bad rep . Yeah so and I just was like fuck it . And then I really dove into it and started to read up on it and stuff like that . I was like , yes , I'm an asshole , that's me . You know what I mean .

Speaker 2

Yes , 100% . The star said it 100% .

Speaker 1

I don't like people Right .

Speaker 2

That's me . Don't get it . Do you know what your rising is ? I think it's Leo you look just like yeah , yeah , yeah .

Speaker 1

Psychotic . Yeah , don't do that , it's already been done . See , that's why I announced the shit to begin with , because I was like fuck you . That's just not real .

Speaker 2

Oh , but it is , it is , it is .

Speaker 1

That's okay , just not the psychotic one .

Speaker 2

Oh , I'm a Gemini . Sun Cancer . Moon Rising Sadge I don't know if I'm right . I think so . Actually , we're great . Don't look at me like that . Just saying I appreciate it , though Once again , we have to applaud him for actually coming on here as a male and agreeing with horoscopes , because I feel that's a big thing for people Huge .

Speaker 1

Huge .

Speaker 2

They're like , they don't want to know . The stars don't define me Well , they do , they do and that's okay . They make us who we are . Technically speaking , we're all stars anyway , you know , I knew at some point , I knew I was going to get into it , but I knew the comet was going to come up .

Speaker 1

Yeah , what that comet .

Speaker 2

That comet , that you just said Nice with it . No , you could have left that one . Yeah , when they landed on the moon , you could have left that one up there .

Speaker 1

So I just think it's a fucking 2023 hippie .

Speaker 2

That's okay . Somebody got to do it . That's the fact , though .

Speaker 1

So , um , I know earlier you were talking about , or you were just denouncing the fact that kids and all that yes . You're to elaborate .

Speaker 2

No kids , no stress . I already have stress trying to keep myself up . You feel me .

Speaker 1

No , I'm talking about kids , just being in your general vicinity .

Speaker 2

Oh children , yeah Hear me out .

Speaker 1

I think the baby goat . Yeah , oh , you thought it was funny . I'm just saying .

Speaker 2

Fuck Okay .

Speaker 1

Like I'm speaking in code Kids Kids , regular kids , children .

Speaker 2

I'm just talking about me having kids . I'm like yeah , nah , I love seeing kids . Well , hear me out .

Speaker 1

I love seeing quiet kids .

Speaker 2

I love seeing cute , quiet kids that are busy doing something I don't know like . Kids that are running around causing a ruckus , irritating parents , disrespecting parents , that right there , that gets under my brown skin . I don't like it at all .

Speaker 1

Respectfully . So I'm going to leave that alone because you know you had a shovel in your hand . I just don't want you to dig too deep .

Speaker 2

I respect that . That's okay , because you know me , I'm ready .

Speaker 1

Somebody hand me a tombstone ?

Speaker 2

Yes , you know that , lovely though I love the kids , let me hold the babies .

Speaker 1

Oh shit , it's crazy , I would let babies sit .

Speaker 2

I would give it right back though .

Speaker 1

So do me a favor , just explain what we were talking about today . What's the episode about ?

Speaker 2

What do you mean Characteristics , and I just specifically chose about my horoscope to specify .

Speaker 1

Understood in your what .

Speaker 2

I'm a Gemini , just the best I know here .

Speaker 1

Just checking .

Speaker 2

And you know what , as I think about it a little bit more . I feel like we dove into it some time before Gemini . I think they're super duper soft .

Speaker 1

Gemini . Well , I know that from what I've heard , never actually read , because I don't think that they'll ever document it , but they're nuts . This is what I heard , because y'all look a little bit touched .

Speaker 2

You know who's crazy Virgos ? Look at that . I don't think . No , no , no , no .

Speaker 1

I have an ex that was a Virgo and she's not , you had a what . An ex .

Speaker 2

Oh , okay , no , I fucked that up .

Speaker 1

I fucked that up . Case closed . But I fucked that up .

Speaker 2

That's okay . Something in you told you not to fight for this anymore . You told me to run you told you to head for the house . That was for you .

Speaker 1

No , but Geminis really are nuts . No , how many personalities do you have living inside of you ? 96 . See , that's my fucking case . Call me versatile .

Speaker 2

Who wants to be fucking boring ? Who just wants to be an asshole all day , every day .

Speaker 1

I want to be happy today when people roll up on you . They got to ask you who they told them to first before they , they don't , they don't .

Speaker 2

I prefer them not to , because when they get an answer they don't like , I don't want to hear about it .

Speaker 1

Alright . Well , my salutations definitely about the change .

Speaker 2

Hmm .

Speaker 1

You all right now Doesn't matter .

Speaker 2

Speaker 1

I will tell the people that getting you just to hit record button it's fucking crazy , you're done . If we ever get the behind the scenes , y'all gonna be like yo she's a studio gangster , which one , yeah , she ain't really holding .

Speaker 2

Speaker 1

Piece by piece . I'm so sorry .

Speaker 2

I genuinely am . You know what's crazy ? Like you say , if you ever get the behind the scenes the behind the scenes are an entire episode I feel sometimes like it really be some shit . It's just like you didn't get the intro , so we can't use that .

Speaker 1

Yo , I really sucks . Yeah , it's crazy . I even try just hitting record , like just fuck up , just hit record , and she's like , and we'll go in .

Speaker 2

Yeah .

Speaker 1

Hold on .

Speaker 2

Wait a minute . I didn't like that one , like how'd you know it was recorded ?

Speaker 1

Don't give me back the last one .

Speaker 2

It's on my life . I need it .

Speaker 1

I need it , but um , yeah , you rolling , though Rolling I'm stop , stop , stop . Not bad . Let's try for the next two minutes to give these people a takeaway .

Speaker 2

Yeah , okay . So what I say about yourself ? I had to actually learn to be all the characteristics I described , basically my Gemini . I felt like I had to empower that because my other side was just too happy , too free , willy , nilly , let everything go . So I kind of had to learn myself and set boundaries for myself . I feel we should all always set a boundary for ourselves and make sure that we respect that enough that we hold other people accountable for that . I feel we may have a set of standards for ourselves , but we don't always hold people accountable for that and sometimes that can mess up your mental relationship with them . So I always say your mental relationship .

Speaker 2

Yes , it may affect how you mentally think about each like , how you think about that person , but you guys still interact the same .

Speaker 1

When you say mentally think right , because I'm whoa , I did . Yeah , you did . So what I'm doing part yeah , and I'm like yo like , is there another way to ?

Speaker 2

think my thing is , like you said . You are the emotional support . Why the hell would you put me down ? Why ?

Speaker 1

Well , I'm not putting you down .

Speaker 2

You don't know that this is your show . Are you telling me how I feel ?

Speaker 1

No , I'm not , I shouldn't .

Speaker 2

You have to make sure you respect yourself to make sure you hold other people accountable ?

Speaker 1

I like how you just made me the entire example she was like no , guys , no , because you started . She was like I'm going to fight back . Watch this guy Prove an example .

Speaker 2

I just punched a nigga in his throat . He was talking shit . He hoped for a pill . I had to put it down . She's like I need a new emotional support host . Old Nates would have been like OK , whatever , no , we're not doing that shit right now . I don't like that .

Speaker 1

But how mentally think about it though ?

Speaker 2

Hear me out Because you know what ?

Speaker 1

Because you can mentally think Wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . You're talking in caps again , All caps . We spoke about that one too . And when you get hype , whatever God damn it , you know why ? Because I got the headphones on and you got the headphones on , which is even worse because you hear yourself screaming at yourself .
