This week, we finally sat down to record after a busy stretch. 

Khalia walked me through her three-day doula training in LA, what the work actually involves, and how she plans to get certified.

We talked about F1 taking over Las Vegas, including the chaos it created, how she ended up cursing out a parking attendant, and how we unexpectedly met Lewis Hamilton while he was undercover at lululemon. 

We also dug into the ongoing reactions to our podcast name, the assumptions people make about us, and how different online behavior can be from real life. 

We wrapped with movie talk, holiday plans, and what’s coming next for the show, including guests.

SPEAKER_04

Here we go. I feel like you start every podcast with the same intro when you're entering the scene.

SPEAKER_00

What by saying here we go? Shall I say? Would that be bad? What is that? Yes, we have it out.

unknown

Thanks.

SPEAKER_00

I love whenever um whenever we get dressed. Sometimes you'd be asking me, what are you wearing? So that you can like kind of coordinate with me. But I'd just be watching sometimes. If you're gonna wear anything with color, I just automatically wear black.

SPEAKER_04

Those are the best sweats we ever bought you, by the way.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and I don't sweat as much inside them.

SPEAKER_04

Really?

SPEAKER_00

No, I'm lying. It's a swamp down there.

SPEAKER_04

Is it? You're hot. Sorry, I didn't turn off these things. Your armpits are sweating. You literally hate whenever I start asking you a bunch of questions.

SPEAKER_00

That's not true. That's not true.

SPEAKER_04

I think it's the definition of marital problems is when we start asking too many questions as wives, and then you as men are like, shut up. Leave us alone. We're fine. We were fine before you. And the uh I think I've said this a lot this week, but what I've come to realize is if not only does it require a woman to bring a man into the world, but it requires a woman to keep a man alive in the world.

SPEAKER_00

I feel like if you said that online, a lot of people will vehemently disagree with you.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Well, I think women would vehemently agree with me.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but I I mean I You don't even eat if I don't make sure that you eat. I'm trying to keep snatched for the camera. It adds ten pounds.

SPEAKER_04

Does it?

SPEAKER_00

That's what they say, but you'd be looking beautiful at the end.

SPEAKER_04

Not this camera. Hey.

SPEAKER_00

You start the podcast the same way, also.

SPEAKER_04

I say hey.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah, you always say it's very cute. I like it.

Welcome back to the open marriage podcast. I'm your host, Blair Edwards.

SPEAKER_04

And I'm Khalia Edwards.

SPEAKER_00

And we talk about all things marriage. Now I just want to put a disclaimer out there. No, we are not in an open marriage relationship, but we talk about all things marriage. I'm fucking up the intro.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. We don't need to do an intro every single time. No podcast. They have a pre-recorded one, or they just don't need to do it. So I think we just cut all that out and we just start talking.

SPEAKER_00

Alright, well, well, let's just start talking then.

SPEAKER_04

So where have you been?

SPEAKER_00

Hope okay. All right, first and foremost, we have taken time off. Why? Because of you.

SPEAKER_04

How is it my fault?

SPEAKER_00

You're busy.

SPEAKER_04

No.

SPEAKER_00

Look, we try to be consistent, but we're busy. This ain't a full-time thing. This is my excuse to talk to my wife.

SPEAKER_04

Until we get paid from this, there are just sometimes that we can't always be available.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, so if you want to throw us some money so that we don't have to go to work and we can do this full-time, feel free. Look, add me on the Cash Up, the Venmo, Zell. Do we still use Zell?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, we don't use Cash App.

SPEAKER_00

Look, either way, I'm open to taking any and all money. She was busy a Sunday, I was busy a Sunday, but we are back. We're back. You're like, fuck you.

SPEAKER_04

And that's marriage.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, yeah. So um we've been gone for like two weeks.

SPEAKER_04

We've been gone for a couple weeks. I'm now a dula.

SPEAKER_00

Oh. Paula Abdullah.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_00

Hamdula la.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_00

Is there another one? You're like a doula hoop.

SPEAKER_04

They kept saying in the training, let's do la this.

SPEAKER_00

That's more of a dad joke. What's a bunch of women doing that? You say that? Didn't no? Okay.

SPEAKER_04

What is my dad? Oh, my dad kept calling my mom and I do ligans.

SPEAKER_00

A doula. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I do like that.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, so uh I'm really excited. I haven't actually spent time setting up an LLC or doing any of those logistical things.

SPEAKER_00

First of all, can you explain what Adula is, just for viewers that might not know what that is?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, so a doula is a support for the birthing person um throughout like labor pre pre-labor, so throughout pregnancy for a bit and then during labor. Uh so they're there to provide moral support, spiritual support, call it what you want, and a bit of physical support through something called comfort measures, um, certain certain types of physical support throughout labor um to ensure that the birthing person is advocated for in the delivery room.

SPEAKER_00

So you so they have trainings for this?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, so I went to a three-day training in Los Angeles.

SPEAKER_00

Three days? Yeah, you abandoned me to take care of some next person's child. How dare you?

SPEAKER_04

No, I mean I wasn't there to take care of someone else's child, but in the future I will take care of someone else who is experiencing the birthing process.

SPEAKER_00

And you um so now that you've done this doula training training, you can now provide those services for people?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, so technically what's interesting about being a dual is that it's not um a very licensed type of business structure. It's kind of like mid-win mid-wifery. It's uh it's been passed down through generations. That's how it originally came about. And just now there's more of a push for people to become licensed. So once I finish a couple more stipulations, I'll be licensed through an organization called Dona.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, no, shut up. Dona, doula, yeah. Dona, you just love it.

SPEAKER_04

Right, but I do have to attend three births before I'm officially certified through Dona. So I do need to find some pregnant clients to support.

SPEAKER_00

So if you're having a child anytime soon, go ahead and hit up Kalia. She is certified, she's valid. Valid light salad. Wait, you never heard of that? Valid light salad?

SPEAKER_04

Uh no, I didn't know salad was valid, but I guess, yeah. Yeah, anyway, so it was really fun. I I think what the coolest part about it was is that I got to do it with my mom. And um spending time with my mom is just always a fun time. But to be able to go some we were traveling from Orange County to LA three days while I was there. We were there for eight hours a day, if not more, because we were traveling to and from. So it ended up being like 10 hour days, if not more. Jeez, and uh yeah, they're just like memories that you'll never forget. So that was really fun for me. And it was a great training. I recommend it to anybody who is interested in the birthing process, is pregnant, wants to become pregnant, has pregnant friends. I just think it gives you so much insight. It's supporting somebody who is pregnant, like a partner. Um, it just gives you like a lot of insight and information about advocacy in women's bodies that we don't get in school or online.

SPEAKER_00

You know, you're so every single time you talk, I'm just dang, you be none stuff. You're so intelligent, you're doing a damn thing.

SPEAKER_04

Thank you.

SPEAKER_00

I'm proud of you.

SPEAKER_04

Thank you.

SPEAKER_00

And meanwhile, you were out there, just had the feet kicked up. I'm like, Yeah, what were you doing? We will never tell.

SPEAKER_04

I don't even know what you did besides not eat food.

SPEAKER_00

But oh, I ate food. I was eating well while you was gone.

SPEAKER_04

I just don't know why I cook things and then they just go to waste because you don't eat them. Next time I'm just gonna leave the fridge empty.

SPEAKER_00

I think I'd prefer that.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, fair.

SPEAKER_00

So I can go hunt for my meal.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, very manly of you. Uh so what what have you been up to since we've been on our hiatus for a couple of weeks?

SPEAKER_00

Oh, you know, doing a little bit of this, doing a little bit of that. I think the last episode, I um the last episode of Orange Ma Orange Open Marriage Podcast.

SPEAKER_04

Orange you glad you're on this podcast.

SPEAKER_00

You can tell I'm thinking about oranges. Um I I think I've just been trying to focus specifically, like how do we keep moving forward? How do we find like some consistency? Um, I I will say it does bring a it does bring a smile to my face when people ask me about the podcast. I we're getting a lot of feedback. People like it.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I did get another question again on Thursday about the name. I was talking to someone that I that I know personally, and I hadn't seen them since the podcast dropped, like the rebrand dropped, and he said, I feel like I knew a lot about you and Blair and your relationship and how you met. And then once I saw the Instagram post about it being called open marriage, I just closed my phone and just thought, huh. I didn't see that one coming.

SPEAKER_00

I this is gonna be a hot take. It's gonna be a very hot take, and I'm just gonna apologize ahead of time if this might ruffle some feathers. Um, but we are potting, so I'm just gonna say a lot of outladish outlandish things uh just for the sake of humor, right? Does it look like we could be in an open marriage? Uh what way to that's so funny.

SPEAKER_04

I don't even know anybody who's in an open marriage, so I don't think I can speak on what they look what people look like who are in open marriage.

SPEAKER_00

Let me tell you something. They look like they would be in an open marriage. Do we give that vibe? Don't answer that question.

SPEAKER_04

We don't give that vibe.

SPEAKER_00

I maybe we do. Maybe more so you than me.

SPEAKER_04

Why do I give it?

SPEAKER_00

You have um you have like open energy. I'm messing with you. Oh my god. Kidding.

SPEAKER_04

I'm like, what does that even mean? Not like open leg energy.

SPEAKER_00

No, no, no, no, no, no. Okay, first of all, I was joking. Right. Just putting. You you have black cat energy.

SPEAKER_02

Really?

SPEAKER_00

Don't talk to me. I I'm I'm kind of cool. You're like a beautiful, like, you know how there's golden retriever energy, black cat energy.

SPEAKER_04

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00

I think out of the both of us, yeah, you have more cat energy than I do.

SPEAKER_04

I do. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

And I don't think anyone's gonna come up to you thinking, oh yeah, she she's in an open marriage.

SPEAKER_04

No. Do you think that you have golden retriever energy?

SPEAKER_00

I think when I'm around people, socially, yes.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, you do.

SPEAKER_00

But when I'm in a house.

SPEAKER_04

It's funny though, because you do have it in the house.

SPEAKER_00

Golden retriever energy?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

It's because you you you you're consistent with your energy of being like, not necessarily standoffish, but being particular with the uh Yeah. Do you know how much I chase you around the house?

SPEAKER_04

You don't though. You don't. The thing about it is you chase me when I'm doing something. So for example, I'm like washing the dishes, and then you just are trying to like kiss me already. Just kiss me. I'm like, I will kiss you. I'm just trying to clean the dishes. You're like, no, kiss me right now. And then you just make out with me at the sink. I'm like, I love this, but I didn't think about making out with you because I was trying to finish the dishes so I could come find you. But if you give me feedback about how much I'm not engaging in makeout sessions, I'll come find you.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, first of all, you're making me sound kind of crazy and needy. I don't I'm not needy.

SPEAKER_04

That's what you want me to do to you right now, huh? I would like that. Yeah. I can tell my hair like this.

SPEAKER_01

Look. The microphone. Yeah, because look, I and I love you. I love you too. We in our home. We be it's homie.

SPEAKER_00

It's homie. You're my homie. You're not looking homely though.

SPEAKER_04

Thank you. Remember you once said that? And I had to correct you. Like, no, homely is not a good thing.

SPEAKER_00

I I thought it was a good thing.

SPEAKER_04

No.

SPEAKER_00

Either way, I'd just be in the house, laid up, just doing nothing for the past couple of weeks.

SPEAKER_04

Golden retriever energy. You have golden retriever energy for sure. And I'm I can be the black cat, that's fine.

SPEAKER_00

But make no mistake about it. Like, I'll I'll be nice and like, hey, you know all that kind of stuff, but just know that inside I I really don't like to be talking and whatnot. It's an occupational hazard. I think it's a part of my brand.

SPEAKER_04

That you talk.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and be like charismatic or whatnot.

SPEAKER_04

Same. I can't not talk. They'd be like, this manager lady is just she's just miserable. She hates us all. I can't do that.

SPEAKER_00

If I was in your position, I would.

SPEAKER_04

Sure. Sure. Uh so this episode's gonna drop so we can talk about what happened, what you got asked to do on Tuesday.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, you think so?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. It's coming out tomorrow.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, shout out. Yeah. I'm different. Okay. I changed a lot. Oh, before that, so it was F1.

SPEAKER_04

It's F1 right now. I mean, we're recording it's F1 weekend.

SPEAKER_00

Shout out. Vegas, how do we feel about F1? Do we love the traffic? Do we love the business that's been brought in?

SPEAKER_04

I almost fought at a parking attendant.

SPEAKER_00

Jeez.

SPEAKER_04

Remember that? Yesterday.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm sorry about that.

SPEAKER_04

I did tell him to fuck off, and like that's probably definitely like outside of my my wheelhouse.

SPEAKER_00

You've ever cursed on on air before.

SPEAKER_04

Maybe one other one word at a time, but it's very rare.

SPEAKER_00

One episode were allowed one expletive. So now for the rest of the episode, I'm gonna beep at everything.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, cool. Well, I did say it. Fuck off. I literally rolled up. I was that crazy girl that rolled in my window, and I was like, fuck off. And then I rolled it up and I was like, wow, Cleo, that was really aggressive.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, but yeah, but I felt great. When the C starts to like change and there's a lot of things happening, people get weird. Like it's just a lot of weird ends.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, I just think like I I typically don't I'm not gonna say that I'm always warranted in my behavior and what I say, but nine point eight times out of ten, if I'm saying something like that, it's because it's deserved. So when someone doesn't have it when these like what are they called? What are those police officers that are like in the like a male uh a mall cop? These are like uh rent a cops, basically. They they don't even have a proper uniform on, God knows who's paying them, probably like Joe from the dealership who's greasy, and they like don't even have like one of those orange freaking wand things. It's like you're you could have just came off the street and act like you had some sort of authority, and you hate that also. So for someone to be doing that to me, and then as I'm trying to drive somewhere where there's nothing that says the road's closed, to then jump in front of my car while my car is moving is so inappropriate that it deserves a fuck off. I don't know what else I'm supposed to say.

SPEAKER_00

First of all, you don't need to validate, you know, why someone needs to be told to piss off or anything like that.

SPEAKER_04

Um it's very british of me.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Well, I mean, speaking of, we we got some we got some Brits in town. Shout out man like Lewis Hamilton.

SPEAKER_04

Lewis Hamilton.

SPEAKER_00

Oi, bruv. I'm rooting for you at F1. Bring the goat, bring it home, mate. It's coming. Um you say I get really British when I talk to other British people.

SPEAKER_04

Bruv isn't doing too hot, so we better I don't even know what time the race is short. I don't even know what this entails. Does a race happen in the day or only at night? Prelims are over, so today's the race and tomorrow's the race. I don't know but Lewis ended lymphed prelims in 20th last place.

SPEAKER_00

I'm gonna be honest with you. Like, I I don't know, I know very little about F1. Same. But I will say this, Lewis, we are rooting for you all the time. We are number one, you're number one. Bring home the gold.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. He, I mean, I don't know how likely it is that someone who's in 20th place may can actually win, but um, if anyone can do it, it's Lewis. And by the way, you know he doesn't okay, so I did some research, and we'll get into why we're talking so much about Lewis Hamilton outside of him being a Brit, but um, I did some research and I found out that since he switched from Mercedes to Ferrari, he's never won a race. And this is the first time Ferrari has placed last in the prelims since 2009.

SPEAKER_00

So do you think it's more attributed to the cause as opposed to the driver?

SPEAKER_04

I don't know. I mean, I don't know enough about F1, so I don't think I can speak on that. I did read some comments that were alluding to that. And uh yeah, I I don't know. I don't know if it was the right move. There's also some swirlings of um the owners basically telling Lewis and the other guy that's here, I don't know his name, to like stop talking so much and just drive. And when they were at when the drivers were asked about it, they said there's no beef happening within the org. But one can imagine that if that's being said and you're not performing well, that things are not looking too good. So people are questioning if it was the right decision for him to leave Mercedes. But that's sports, people are gonna have their opinions. Everyone loves an underdog, everyone loves a comeback story, everyone loves to hate the guy that's like on top, you know what I mean? So we'll see what he does. But we are rooting for you, Lewis, and we are rooting for you because we met you.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah. Do you know there was a lot of naysayers that be like, oh, you'll never meet Lewis Hamilton, you don't know him. And I'm like, hey, look, if they say, and you know, they always song in, they say there's about six degrees of separation between everyone in this world. That means whoever you want to meet, if you just meet the right six people, you can get to meet that person, right?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, so all you gotta do is meet me.

SPEAKER_00

That's it. One degree.

SPEAKER_04

How lucky are you? Drop the secret. How do you manifest me?

SPEAKER_00

You ever heard of this artist named Sierra?

SPEAKER_04

Sierra, this beat is catch me in a mall.

SPEAKER_00

No I ride out, G fly planes. Anyway, I use Sierra's prayer.

SPEAKER_04

Yes, the husband prayer.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I I just flipped it.

SPEAKER_04

Right. The wifey prayer. Wifey prayer. Okay. Okay. I don't like the term wifey, but what do you prefer? Just wifey's fine. I'm just kind of you can pick whatever else you want to call me, but just not wifey.

SPEAKER_00

Mamas. Fine shit.

SPEAKER_04

I have PTSD from Mamas.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, because of all the the basketball players that use that?

SPEAKER_04

No, because my ex prom date man literally called me mamas all the time.

SPEAKER_00

And I'm like, drop in a comment what you think is the most appropriate pet name or your favorite pet name to use for your significant other.

SPEAKER_04

What's your favorite?

SPEAKER_00

Wifey.

SPEAKER_04

It's not you've never called me wifey in your life.

SPEAKER_00

I when I talk to other people, I do say missus.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, missus is fine.

SPEAKER_00

The missus. The old ball and chain.

SPEAKER_04

But not my old lady. That's some shit from Florida, though.

SPEAKER_00

My old lady. I think that's more so used for mothers. No. Or okay.

SPEAKER_04

It's used for your lady, your girl.

SPEAKER_00

Well, either way.

SPEAKER_04

What's your favorite? Stop circumventing.

SPEAKER_00

I like saying sweetheart.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. That's so cute.

SPEAKER_00

You are a sweetheart. My love. Mi amor. Mon ami.

SPEAKER_04

What's my favorite? What's your favorite that I call you?

SPEAKER_00

Daddy.

SPEAKER_04

I've never called him daddy. I have one daddy, and his name is Robert Larkin.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, Zaddy. Okay, insecure. Not playing. Um you do call me, you do call me babe. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

That's your favorite?

SPEAKER_00

That's my favorite. I do like when you say my name.

SPEAKER_04

You like Ainge.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, Age is cute.

SPEAKER_04

Because I call you Ange for sure for Angel. You are Angel.

SPEAKER_00

Um maybe to some people.

SPEAKER_04

Even though you're wearing all black. So you met Lewis Hamilton.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, Charlotte. Man like. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_04

Bruv. You I have this theory and it's been proven every time. But anytime Blair meets somebody who's also British, even though he's been living in the States for 20 years, and if if you don't know he's British, you probably won't pick up on it for a bit of time until you start talking to him for a while. As soon as you meet somebody who's British, I turned it to pleaky buttons.

SPEAKER_00

Oh my man, you're case that's what I sound like.

SPEAKER_04

And literally, when you're talking to Lewis, I was just having an out-of-body experience. I'm helping Lewis. Lewis essentially came to Lululemon. He's our global ambassador. And he was an undercover educator. So I was helping him essentially be at cash. Because if you've never worked retail, let me tell you something. Being at cash is the most nail-biting, excruciating experience. There are lights shining on you from track lights. You are under pressure trying to talk, type in someone's phone number, scan things, and then take off the center. God bless you. It's a whole thing. You gotta push it down, twist it up, pull it up. Uh and trying to teach somebody who's never ever experienced this and is doing it for the first time on camera is a lot.

SPEAKER_00

No, he he he smashed it.

SPEAKER_04

He crushed it all the while, being so like so nervous. Uh, but when I'm helping him, I'm trying to focus on being kind and supportive and not saying too much and letting him kind of be the star of the show. Also, you're in front of me looking fine. I'm like, okay, I feel sick. I'm towering over Lewis, so I'm trying not to be too close to him. And then you start talking, and I'm like, Is this my husband, bruv?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, poker the pine. Oh, yeah, we're gonna go, we're gonna play a couple of darts, play a little bit of foolie on the outside.

SPEAKER_04

Why do you what are you talking about? You squeaking it.

SPEAKER_00

Because you make it sound like that's what I sound like talking to British people.

SPEAKER_04

So instead of going that full, just go uh like roadman.

SPEAKER_00

Good evening, Sir Lewis. I was wondering if I could purchase these daydrift pants.

SPEAKER_04

You know how I talk like a roadman. Yes.

SPEAKER_00

A was goan and bruv. Yes. I'm like, you blessed. That's how I started talking. That's not bad.

SPEAKER_04

And I'm like, having bruv, having gate.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, he's like, Yeah, where are you from? I'm like, fam, I'm from end in it.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, and I was like, We're using bruv in it. He never says these things around me, so I'm suddenly confused. Good thing I could understand, because I most of my team couldn't understand what Lewis was saying.

SPEAKER_00

But he doesn't even talk.

SPEAKER_04

He doesn't talk, yeah. I don't know, but do you know what?

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so I've been in America for a couple years now. 20. Give or take, right?

SPEAKER_04

You're only 20 years old, by the way.

SPEAKER_00

Huh?

SPEAKER_04

You're young. If I say 20, then that means you're 20.

SPEAKER_00

I am 20. I'm I'm a selenial.

SPEAKER_04

Um, you're Gen Z for sure if you're 20.

SPEAKER_00

I'm like Robert Patterson. He thinks he's Gen Z.

SPEAKER_04

Really? Why do you know that?

SPEAKER_00

I I saw in an interview. He's like, I'm Gen Z.

SPEAKER_04

No, he's like 30 plus.

SPEAKER_00

That's what the that's what Jennifer Lawrence says. How old are you? He said that doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_04

Very good, dude.

SPEAKER_00

But anyway, um, I've been here in England for a long time. And I think you've been here in England. Sorry. Let me reverse. I've been in America for a long time.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

And what I've come to find out is I've had to consistently repeat myself whenever I'm talking to people. And it's not so much, well, yeah, I'm sure I could like annunciate in my words and whatnot. But I do believe that when I start to speak, first of all, they're seeing a black man. And if I may say so myself, relatively attractive one. All right. Now okay, once I start opening my mouth and they hear the British accent, I fuck them up. So they're not you.

SPEAKER_04

Why do you think I blacked out when I asked you for your phone number?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, you did ask.

SPEAKER_04

I was already scared, and then you had a British accent. I could have just fell on the shrubs.

SPEAKER_00

I would have caught you. You see that?

SPEAKER_04

You see that turn down of the of the of the octaves and the turn down of the volume? What do you mean? Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Anyway, uh playing around. Okay, what I'm saying though is when I start to talk to people, and I'm actually gonna start using my British accent and not pull them back anymore, right? But when I start to talk to people, they don't even compute what I'm saying because they're just like it they malfunction. So I'm like, hi, how you doing? Can I have a glass of water? They're like, first of all, slow down. What am I experiencing? What? They don't even they're not saying what because they don't understand what I'm saying, they're saying what because they don't understand what they're experiencing.

SPEAKER_04

Right. They're shocked.

SPEAKER_00

They're shocked.

SPEAKER_04

It's like when the internet was taken over by the black Scottish folks.

SPEAKER_00

Oh yeah. I don't even know how to do a Scottish accent.

SPEAKER_04

It's pretty good.

SPEAKER_00

But no, I think that's like it kind of sounds like Birmingham, but yeah, you have to have a a little bit of a I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

It's kind of giving Irish Irish I'm not from Scotch Scotsman. Yeah, pretty good.

SPEAKER_00

But my but my name is Brit uh Scottish.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

My great-grandfather's Scottish too.

SPEAKER_04

We need to see some photos of this. I don't believe it.

SPEAKER_00

A white man? That must be very interesting. We'll have some. Imagine seeing getting a picture of my great-grandfather and he looks like me, but just a white version. That'll that would mess me up.

SPEAKER_04

I'm we can find out. Who wait, which great on what side?

SPEAKER_00

My dad's.

SPEAKER_04

Does he have photos? Probably not.

unknown

Hell no.

SPEAKER_00

Anywho, um, so I imagine that's the same thing for Lewis Hamilton. He's coming around and he's like, Hi, how you doing? My name is Lewis. They're like, What?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I didn't I didn't find any issue with understanding what he was saying. But maybe I've had priming because of you.

SPEAKER_00

That's why I typically, whenever I talk to anybody, I I use uh it's not Spanglish, but I use a more Americanized British accent. So I'm like, hey, can I have a glass of water? You hate that? I can't say can I have a glass of water? What? Water, can I have water?

SPEAKER_04

So my team was asking me if you could do an American accent, and I said no. He can do versions of an American accent. Let me tell you what kind of versions he can do. The first version you can do is your Floridian hood accent.

SPEAKER_00

I'm gonna be honest with you. So, like when I when I do my hood accent, it ain't even really a hood accent, uh, because I just be copying copying my homeboy Ralph because whenever I talk to him on the phone, he'd be like, Shit, what you doing? I just got back from the club. Yeah, I mean, we uh I was I'm lit.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, so that's the one accent you could do. The second accent you can do is a nerd, a nerdy American.

SPEAKER_00

Do you know where that comes from? It's because when I was younger in in England, we were watching Recess. Does anybody remember Randall? Randall, that nerd.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, okay. You're nuts. And then the other one you can do is surfer.

SPEAKER_00

Surfer? I I don't know what you're talking about. Is that kind of like surfer? Like I went up to the east the coast of like Malibu, and you know, we were shredding, it was gnarly.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So if I I kind of honestly that kind of sounds like Tyler the creator when he talks. Skin glowing, teeth glistening. By the way, your boy got all this of the yeah. Don't think I didn't see you repost this man on Instagram. Oh my god, the goat.

SPEAKER_04

I didn't say the goat. What did I say?

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. I just logged off and threw my phone across the wall. You don't know what that debt is over there?

SPEAKER_04

Speaking of, it's Camp Vlognaw this weekend.

SPEAKER_00

I would have liked to go to Camp Vlognaw.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but not for $800. Not worried. We're going to Chicago. We can't be doing that.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. I would have liked to go to Camp Vlognaw, though.

SPEAKER_04

Maybe next year.

SPEAKER_00

Do you know this is gonna be a running theme throughout our life?

SPEAKER_04

What?

SPEAKER_00

Tyler, if I ever meet you in person, just know that everything I've said before is just for the the running gag of you being my arch nemesis. I don't hate you at all. We both got the same taste in women. Look at her. She's nice. But what I'm saying though is like you're my arch nemesis for now on.

SPEAKER_04

Let's go to camp flog now next year.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, if I'm performing at, yeah, sure.

SPEAKER_04

We're going regardless. Yeah, so those are the three accents that you can do. We gotta work on the Denver American accent.

SPEAKER_00

I'll just ask my brother, my brother Conrad, because he lives in Denver, just to see how they talk over there.

SPEAKER_04

This is just so painful. Does anyone else feel like this is painful? How they can talk over there. Talk.

SPEAKER_00

How they can talk over there. Talk. Talk. Talk. Yeah, you said I can't like pull out the word talk. I can't do that.

SPEAKER_04

Talk out there.

SPEAKER_00

Anyway, this is probably nails on a chalkboard for our listeners. So I'm gonna pull back.

SPEAKER_04

Anywho, Matt Lewis Hamilton, he was so sweet. We're hoping that he does well uh this weekend, and despite the odds, he can somehow pull out some sort of win.

SPEAKER_00

I have that almost faith in him.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but outside of it being F1, the locals being upset that there's tons of traffic, me telling somebody to fuck off, and us being busy. That's like all we've been up to. Um it is the holiday season. I have decorated the house for the most part. We're gonna do the tree together. But things are up. The candle is on. It is Christmas, the best time of the year. And Black Friday's around the corner. You buy anything?

SPEAKER_00

I'd like to get a couple bits and bobs. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

What's top of the list?

SPEAKER_00

Something for our house. I don't know. In fact, you know what? We need a light because we have you in the dark right now. I don't like this at all.

SPEAKER_04

But I'm light inside and outside.

SPEAKER_00

You're the light of my life. But that's about it. I I think I I literally have everything else in the world.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I just needed you.

SPEAKER_04

Once we move though, we will need to purchase some things like a new bed and all these other things. But that's for a different time.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. What else? Uh so that was the recap.

SPEAKER_04

That was a recap, yeah. Having a great time. Loving life. It's cold outside. Thank the gods above. I mean, summer here just feels like 27 years. So it's nice that it's cold. I can wear sweatshirts. I'm wearing fuzzy socks. Ug boots. The nines. Yeah. Wicked.

SPEAKER_01

Every time.

SPEAKER_00

You like that?

SPEAKER_04

No. Wicked.

SPEAKER_00

Thumbs up, thumbs down.

SPEAKER_04

What's your thoughts? I did fall asleep for 25 minutes. My order ring is in.

SPEAKER_00

So I knew. We we went hella late.

SPEAKER_04

It was so late and it was a long day, but it's fine. I 25 minutes of missing the film, it was not a big deal.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so this is my opinion. A lot of people, not a lot of people, I will say this. The stents, the people that appreciate the musical theater um aficionados, love the movie. I think somebody, I think one person might have said, uh, kind of mid. Yeah. And then everyone was like, oh my god, like how dare you, and blah blah blah blah blah. Whatever. I think the movie was a faithful adaptation for the people that enjoy the wicked ecosphere. Like it was it was good for them. I personally as a movie it was okay. A lot of singing. It's a musical.

SPEAKER_04

Too much singing.

SPEAKER_00

I didn't think that they were gonna bring so much singing into a movie because we're not actually watching the musical, you know what I mean? I thought that they they would probably pull back on a little bit of that. The dancing was fantastic, choreography was great, set design, all of it was great. Compared to the first one though, the first one was absolutely perfect. And I'm not sure I'm I didn't check up the the songs to film ratio, but in it feel like it felt like the world building was more um intentional as opposed to let's get these songs off.

SPEAKER_04

It felt like every time someone started to talk, they started singing, and that's the thing I don't like about musicals.

SPEAKER_01

It's like you don't like right me singing this way.

SPEAKER_04

And that's why I went to sleep because at some point my ears were tired of hearing singing. I'm like, I can't compute the storyline if you guys just keep singing the story, just say what you need to say. It's like Alpha Bo went to go talk to the animals as they were like leaving, and she's just talking, and then she's like, But everyone. Oh, it's just a liar, a liar, a liar. It's like, okay, we don't need to do that. We just need to talk to the animals and then move on and then go sing in your little corridor. But yeah, I I had I I didn't have any high hopes for the first movie because I didn't, I thought that it would be like how this one was, where it was just constantly singing, which I'm not a fan of. I'm not a musical girl. Uh I do love Hamilton. That's probably the one exception to the rule. Never seen it. You haven't apparently seen a lot of things that you should have seen. Never seen Brave, Big Hero Six, maybe not. You've never seen Frozen, you've never seen uh what else did we say last night?

SPEAKER_00

Uh I mean Kung Fu Panda.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I've never seen any of them.

SPEAKER_00

We've never seen what like the Goonies and Sandlaw.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, there's just some things that we've got to work on.

SPEAKER_00

But British, we we don't we don't watch movies right now. We we read books.

SPEAKER_04

You grow up in America for majority of your adolescence. But all I'm saying is I had no high hopes for the first movie, and then it really did provide a great experience for me. Like I I cried, I loved the movie, thought it was perfectly done, and the singing was just right, kind of like Goldilocks, you know, when it finally gets just right. The chair, the bed, the the porridge, whatever. This one, bed too big, chair too hard. Just off, porridge too cold. Everything was just slightly off, and it all comes back to how much singing there was.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and and you know what?

SPEAKER_04

And an inconsistent storyline. They kept dropping like this little nugget where it's like, oh yeah, profound, and then we just leave it here and let it get washed away at sea, and then it's like we go 25 hours and it's oh, here's another profound nugget, and then it gets whisked away by the monkeys with wings.

SPEAKER_00

I'm like, Yeah, we're trying to give like a spoiler-free like assessment of it, but there was a lot of elements that throughout the story I I felt like maybe I missed it, and maybe because of the information was in the song, you know. Um but blocked out, yeah. It was I think they were just trying to drop in because they only supposed to do two parts, maybe. So maybe they were just trying to squeeze in the story, and that felt like the right kind of pacing. Yeah. I was just like, uh now, mind you, when it whenever it comes to these movies, the only issue that I take is when people watch this, what are we talking about? Like, what is the message of the movie? I felt the message of the first one. I said, ooh, this one's hitting kind of close to home. But how do people fall about this? And all people are talking about is the songs or the costumes. Oh my god, they didn't have the right post to write. I'm like, what the fuck?

SPEAKER_04

But that is, I think, what we do in this country is we are swooned by the surface level of things because it catches our eye, and then that's what takes our attention away. Things are too fast, so it's like, okay, we gotta focus on the thing that's cool costumes, music, face, serving, songs. It's like, okay, but what about the whole point of of art, which is like the story behind it?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

But most people don't they go to watch something to escape something, so they're not thinking critically, they're just like, oh, this is really cool and awesome. We're done here.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I it that that makes me sad. That makes me very sad. What's the point of like that's a waste of time then? I in my personal opinion. You you you create art, you put it out there for consumption, whatever. If people want to tune in or turn off their brain, that's on them, fine. But I'm just saying, you are missing out on some messages in this piece of literature, this piece of work, if you are not tapping in.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I agree. I agree. And hopefully one day they'll watch a movie that opens up their eyes. But wasn't for me, I wouldn't watch it again. Missed 25 minutes, I'm good.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. Maybe I was kind of waiting for another one of those like tear joker moments. Because remember the scene in the first one. I yo, I was at the dance, everyone was like I'm getting desponse right now.

SPEAKER_04

Crying.

SPEAKER_00

I I feel sweet.

SPEAKER_04

Your hands were sweating. Jeez, we're hands in sweat one time in the movie.

SPEAKER_00

Not once. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

So that's how I know it wasn't good.

SPEAKER_00

But maybe I'm trying to think. What could have now I haven't seen the actual like theater play? Something, would there have been anything in there? Would you want to see it? Uh yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I mean, I know what the story is, so I don't feel like that it wouldn't it wouldn't be beneficial for me to see it.

SPEAKER_04

But we all know stories that have been told 10,000 times. That's kind of what that's what the world is, is just like stories retold in different ways in different time periods.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I I think I think the there was only like two reveals, I guess three reveals in in the second movie that made me go, that's what happens, but also at the same time Really? Yeah, I I didn't I didn't see yeah.

SPEAKER_04

That's kind of a lot.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I mean, it was it was three things, but it wasn't impactful things. It just made me go, oh, so that's what happened.

SPEAKER_04

I think I know one of them, but I don't know the other two that you're referring to. We can talk about it off cam.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but what what I'm saying though is the impactfulness of the first movie. I thought what I gravitated towards would be addressed in the second, but I didn't get that feeling. And it kind of made me like kind of bittersweet. Maybe they could have been more heavy on the message of the movie as opposed to what happens in a story, like how things transpire that links to the original Wizard of Oz. I think that was more so the focus and the theater aspect of it, as opposed to what the message is behind the story. I I was just like, oh okay. There's there's obviously a different priority here.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, not to mention that there we said that every song sounded the same.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I will find my way. Now it's Hercules. I will go the distance.

SPEAKER_00

When that movie comes out, ooh, they're making a live-action Hercules. They are? Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_04

When's it coming out?

SPEAKER_00

I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

But when they do Are you just hoping that it's coming out?

SPEAKER_00

No, they're definitely coming out with it.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, okay. I'm like, where did you get this information from?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, they're definitely coming out with it. I don't know like when. When? But that you did mention something. Do you like all these mu all these songs sound the same? I'm like, yeah, it's because they're like musical theater. And you're like, white? Um yeah, sure. But Hercules.

SPEAKER_04

There's just no like um soul. I don't know what else to say, but even if you think about Lion King, we saw Lion King live action. I mean, we saw Lion King per like on Broadway.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Uh you've seen Lion King with Childish Gambino? I've never watched it. Okay, that's what we're watching tonight.

SPEAKER_00

So Mufasa. Aaron Pierre, that Mufasa.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Okay, so we're watching that tonight. That's the movie that we're gonna watch.

SPEAKER_00

And I and I can only imagine, yeah, they probably have a lot of fucking soul in that.

SPEAKER_04

And it's cause it's in Africa, so they couldn't make it what gentrified because it's like you're in Africa and you're animals, those animals are not acting colonized, they're not. But in these other movies, it's just like I think that's how I liked Hamilton too, because it's not gentrified.

SPEAKER_00

I I think there's some people out there that would very much disagree with you.

SPEAKER_04

That's fine.

SPEAKER_00

Well, it's not necessarily that it's gentrified, but the style of like hip hop is gentrified for a white audience, which is like I don't think it is, but maybe if you watched it, you would have a different interpretation of it.

SPEAKER_04

Uh I I'm a Hamilton fan, so shout out.

SPEAKER_00

Well, either way, yeah, I'm I'm open to watching Lion King. That's what I'm saying. Like when okay.

SPEAKER_04

But when white I'm just uh I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

But when Hercules comes out, they they because they have the A white man with muscles? Well, it's it's because they have the the back, like the vocalists, and it's just like Who is it?

SPEAKER_04

Who's who's doing the vo the vocals?

SPEAKER_00

We don't know, but what I'm saying is in the original Hercules, you have like four or five black women that are just doing a majority of the song. So it's like they they have the You know what I mean? It's like damn near quiet.

SPEAKER_04

The last Hercules is kind of looks like when they just draw the characters. The old school animation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The old school animation.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

See, I can't watch those kind of movies. Huh? It's just too old. If it's like those those Disney, you know when you watch those, um when you watch those documentaries about Disney, and they have those flip books, and it's like all those sketches with the pencil, and then those are the exact same ones that you see on the TV. It's just like they don't have they didn't have a lot of animation back then, so they so it doesn't look as cool. It looks old. Like it's on VHS.

SPEAKER_00

One would argue that's the gold standard. Because most of this live action in CGI is just uh uh like I've never watched Aladdin, the live action one. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, and see, and see, those are those are probably technically considered musicals, but the music was great, the vibes were good, it was a fun time, I loved it, I was having a great time in my life. This, I'm like someone give me a drink. I need a shot up, tequila. Okay, we're done with that. And wicked. Go watch it, let us know what you think about it. Hopefully, you have a different experience than we had. Don't go at 11 p.m. We didn't leave a theater until 1 30.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I like to. And then on a ride home, we were just I am driving back and turn on my turn signal.

SPEAKER_01

But wait, did I forget my car keys?

SPEAKER_00

You like that?

SPEAKER_01

It's good.

SPEAKER_04

It's really good.

SPEAKER_00

Can I do it one more time?

SPEAKER_04

Sure. I will say you've held the perfect pitch for all three. So good job.

SPEAKER_00

Thank you very much.

SPEAKER_04

You're welcome.

SPEAKER_00

Um, what else? What else, sweetheart?

SPEAKER_04

What do you have on this list over here?

SPEAKER_00

You know what? I typically, whenever we do this podcast, I like to talk about what they're talking about in the streets. Sure. Um, but I haven't really been on social media, but I did come across something that made me go, huh, that's interesting. So there are I I I'm forgetting this lady's name, but she recounted a story where she got uh she was out and then she got punched in the face by um security, I guess a bouncer. Um come to find out it was uh uh another lady that punched her in the face. But the the um the takeaway from this uh recounting of the story are people saying, oh yeah, do you know what? That makes sense because you talk online as if you've never been punched in the face.

SPEAKER_04

What's the statistic of people who've actually been punched in the face?

SPEAKER_00

I I I don't know. Have you ever been punched in the face before?

SPEAKER_04

No, have you?

SPEAKER_00

I've been punched in the face.

SPEAKER_04

You have? Yeah. From who?

SPEAKER_00

Um, it's this kid in like middle school.

SPEAKER_04

What? Why?

SPEAKER_00

Uh I think it was a misunderstanding, but he like punched me twice.

SPEAKER_04

In the face?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, in the face. It didn't hurt. And I didn't fight him because I I I think maybe I was shocked, but it didn't really compute. But the next day he like apologized and I said, Oh, it's fine as well.

SPEAKER_04

A misunderstanding is what you're gonna boil it down to? You don't we don't get any other information?

SPEAKER_00

Um, do I remember? Okay, look, all you need to know is that I got punched in the face, but I never once it never made me say, oh, it's because of something I said or how I behaved. Um, and then I'm gonna go throughout life being aware that there's there's a possibil possibility that I could get punched in the face. So let me be careful of what I say online. Um like consequences. So what I'm asking is um do you think that there's any uh threat of there's any consequences of the things that we say online on this podcast that someone would punch me for? Uh maybe not a punch, but has some real real world implications. Do you have any of those feelings?

SPEAKER_04

No.

SPEAKER_00

Well, first of all, you're like I'm media trained. Not only that, but you're about that smoke also. And I don't want to invite violence into your life, but if you can't tell, Kalia is light-skinned, so she she says whatever she wants. Okay.

SPEAKER_04

That isn't true.

SPEAKER_00

Um, and she's also 5'10.

SPEAKER_04

Um that is true.

SPEAKER_00

I I I would strongly encourage you not to try her.

SPEAKER_04

See this long arms and he's bigger than a lot of people.

SPEAKER_00

By the way, let me speak about a story about Khalia.

SPEAKER_04

Do you can I say the story? Yeah, sure. I'm gonna interject though, if you say anything off the wall.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, what I'm gonna say is um she first and foremost, she's a very um respectable woman. She she doesn't have to incite violence or anything. She's a lady through and through, but she has also told me that MLK. She has MLK was about that smoke sometimes, I believe. Right. If I'm not mistaken.

SPEAKER_04

But I I have MLK energy, usually.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. But I also she did tell me because she used to play basketball, um, she does have that dog in her. And I always respected that. I you never need to see someone like be about that action to be to know if they about that action. But there was one time, story time. There was one time that she actually sometime this like last year, around this, yeah, yeah. We were going to go to F1.

SPEAKER_04

It was. You went to go look at that.

SPEAKER_00

Oh my gosh. Well, I gotta be careful because I don't want to incriminate you.

SPEAKER_04

That's fine, it was F1. That's anyway. Also, there's nothing to incriminate me. There's been no charges, we're good.

SPEAKER_00

I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I don't want any real world implications. So there we were. I'm walking with Khalid. We're gonna go check out uh a pop-up store. There was some collaboration going on. We leave, and as we're walking throughout the casino, we see a couple off into the nef uh kind of like a stone throwaway. Older people, probably like in their 40s or 50s. Now, you typically, when you're walking in a casino or when you're walking around life, everyone has right of way. If you're walking down a street, you typically stay on the right side. Khalia and I are walking hand in hand, la-di-da-di-da. Right? We see this couple, and off to the right of us, there's someone that they can walk in to somewhere. The gentleman walks ahead of this lady and he like walks into where this place was to try not to impede on our pace. This woman was a little bit slower. Look at Khalia's face right now. She's like, she she's right back there. This woman's a little bit slower, so she's thinking to herself, I can get there at any time, but you're gonna have to slow down or stop so that we don't cause a collision.

SPEAKER_04

But I want to also note that because I want to make sure that we're all clear. Blair and I are walking on the right hand side of the of the carpet, going straight. Where they're trying to go is right next to us on the right-hand side, but they're coming the opposite direction. So they have to cross oncoming traffic to get to where they're trying to go. So we have the right of way because we're walking straight, just like driving.

SPEAKER_00

Yes. Now, the husband walks, and instead of the woman waiting or being just as far, she keeps the same pace. Maybe she expected us to like slow down for her. I kind of expected me to slow down for her because I don't want to run her over. I didn't know that Khalia and I had different intentions because once this woman came into our space, Khalia, without missing a beat, keeps walking through. She ran through that lady low-key. And the woman's like, oh now, this is the cold part. I squeezed my wife's hand like, babe, what you did.

SPEAKER_04

And he said that out loud. He goes, babe.

SPEAKER_00

I was like, Yup, because it caught me off guard. But then I realized as I looked at Kal, as the woman looked at Khalia, I looked at Khalia, Khalia walked, looked at the woman, looked up and down, and then kept walking. I said, Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yo, she ran this woman over.

SPEAKER_00

I was like, damn, this woman is stone cold. And my hands were sweating. My hand almost slipped out of your hand. She's like, shouldn't have been walking in my way. She ran this woman over.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, now we're gonna be. And then crazy, she didn't fall down. But she shoulder, I shoulder chucked her, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

But then the cutest part about it after that, she was like, Are you scared of me, baby?

SPEAKER_04

It's kind of psychotic behavior.

SPEAKER_00

I was kind of scared. I was like looking at the cameras, I'm like, what if they roll up on us?

SPEAKER_04

But I did nothing wrong. I didn't incite violence. I was walking in my direction. She chose to not stop. I'm not stopping. I'm gonna go. Either you and I the thing about it too is I'm not small. So people see me. So you see me and you still choose to go the same pace. You then are choosing to get checked. And hopefully she'll never cut anybody off again.

SPEAKER_00

Chances are she's gonna try again. But what I'm saying is hopefully I can see her.

SPEAKER_04

I think we should go back to tonight what the scene of the crime was.

SPEAKER_00

I really don't think we should. I think we should. See, she's a mad woman, she's crazy.

SPEAKER_01

She needs to be stopped. They're gonna lock you in a jail cell. Please listen to your mother, Roman. She's canceled.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, she is.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, we don't talk about her.

SPEAKER_00

Anywho, um, but yeah, that was our story time.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, she said, are you scared of me? Well, it was the first time that you've ever experienced me. Look at that feet sweating. Yeah, it was the first time you ever experienced me not being 100% ladylike.

SPEAKER_00

I still think you're ladylike. I think a lady can show up in any way that she would like. Because she's a lady, no one can take that away from her, and the standards of men will never change.

SPEAKER_04

You're funny.

SPEAKER_00

It's the truth. No, so so going back to what we were originally saying for these for this uh TikTok topic, um and you know, there's uh it kind of snowballs into what people do online. You know, some people are like, oh, I'll never I'll never date a man that's under six foot, doesn't have six abs or six six digits in a bank account or anything like that. Um but then you meet them in real life and they're like, oh no, you know, it can be whatever. People perpetrate on the internet. I wonder from people that come across our podcast would wonder how much are we alike online doing this podcast to who we are in person?

SPEAKER_04

I'm the same person on the podcast and in person.

SPEAKER_00

Maybe some people have some parasocial relationships with us. They'd be like, oh, I feel like I'm in their marriage too. We're best friends.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, maybe soon. I don't feel like now. I've I've witnessed some, I actually was witnessing some parasocial relationships yesterday uh within the fitness community, and it's fright, it's actually frightening.

SPEAKER_00

Damn.

SPEAKER_04

Because people think they have they should have access to you in your personal life, and it's like people think like they should have access to you.

SPEAKER_00

No. I was about to say, I'm not me.

SPEAKER_04

I have black.

SPEAKER_00

I'm the only one that has access to one car garage. My car.

SPEAKER_04

You done?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I'm done.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. I have black cat energy, so no one's thinking they have a pair. I'm very clear about parasocial relationships. I don't even text people back, so they would probably definitely think they I didn't like them. But what I'm saying is is people are always gonna think they have some sort of uh access to you when you're on the internet because they can access you at any point in time, but it's different than a personal relationship that's close. And I don't think anyone thinks that way about me.

SPEAKER_00

At least not right now. And let's let's make this ultrally clear. We are not in an open marriage. Don't even try and shoot. I'm gonna swing at somebody. Don't try it, don't do it to yourself.

SPEAKER_04

That I row in up. It's yeah, it's that one that always goes up inadvertently. It's good. You look cute, by the way.

SPEAKER_00

Likewise. I think that's um, thank you, baby. I you know I I paid you to compliment first. You're looking gorgeous. I think that's the episode.

SPEAKER_04

It is the up, and I'm really happy that we kind of had one of these episodes that was just chill and we just kind of more chat and shit. Yeah, yeah. Uh yapping, yap hour. Um what's this week? Oh, next week is Thanksgiving. So we'll have a regular uh third we could record on Thursday, but we also could record on Tuesday. Okay. Because I'm off on on Tuesday. Nice.

SPEAKER_00

Or Wednesday. Yeah, do more episodes to catch up because we we missed y'all. We missed y'all. We don't wanna we don't wanna leave y'all hanging.

SPEAKER_04

And not that you all need this in your lives, because I do too.

SPEAKER_00

So um also I think a lot of people are waiting for us to have some like guests on the show and whatnot.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, we can talk about that. We do have uh some things we need to announce and we do need to create some guest lists. So if you have any guests that you'd like to see on the podcast, or if you you yourself would like to be on the podcast, if you would love to know, please comment on these posts uh that are coming or on this episode, and we'll curate something. It has to be intentional and it won't be in our house, so we'll have to figure out another place to film. Maybe at Killn.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I mean uh Yeah you like aim being in our house. Our house is very protected.

SPEAKER_04

Well, also, there's not enough room. We can't just like all sit on the couch side by side just like talking, that's weird. Uh no. It would need to be at Killn.

SPEAKER_00

Well, either way, yeah. I'm looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to the rest of this um where this podcast goes. Um hopefully we keep y'all entertained. And and talk with us, man. Tell us what you want. We're not mind readers, so you gotta have to drop a comment. Please.
