This episode almost never saw the light of day.

It’s a little glitchy—but the conversation? Too real to keep hidden.

We sat on this one for a while… but some conversations don’t wait for perfect conditions. So instead of pulling the plug—we pulled the trigger.

This episode is packed with laughs, raw moments, and thought-provoking questions that hit deeper than expected.

 Heads up: If you’re here for visuals, this one leans more into the audio experience—but trust us, it still delivers.

Sometimes the imperfect ones hit the hardest.

Eric Dane is best known for his uh role in playing Dr. Mark Sloan in the American medical drama Grey's Anatomy.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Very handsome man.

SPEAKER_06

Super handsome. They called him Dr. McDreer McDreamy. Super just handsome white man. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

Then I gotta look up. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Um just passed away. He was diagnosed with ALS, I think, last year, yeah before last year. I'm sorry. So just somebody who was super, super healthy and just deterioration.

SPEAKER_00

So really sad.

SPEAKER_06

So uh before he passed away, he did a Netflix interview, um, talking to his daughters and giving him giving them his last words, right? And I I listened to it and I literally was stuck.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

So I want to read what he said verbatim, and then I have two questions that I want to ask you ladies about kind of that space that he was in. Okay. Alright.

SPEAKER_03

Sorry, I want to apologize for the dinging, but I have to read my message for my baby.

SPEAKER_04

Go for it.

SPEAKER_03

Um, she just said, We love you too response, and then she's like, I hope you do well on your podcast. Sorry if you're filming, love you.

SPEAKER_02

Like I love my babies.

SPEAKER_03

Girl, you know we film.

SPEAKER_05

We just on the film.

SPEAKER_02

That's fire. Okay, sorry, continue.

SPEAKER_06

He says, I want to tell you four things I've learned from this disease, and I hope you don't just listen to me. I hope you hear me. First, live now, right now in the present. It's hard, but I've learned to do that. For years, I've wandered off mentally, lost in my head for long chunks of time, wallowing and worrying in self-pity and shame and doubt. I replayed decisions, sucking guessed to myself. I should have done this, I never should have done that, no more. That's end quote. My question to you today, ladies, when all is said and done, what message would you leave behind as you enter the long good night?

SPEAKER_03

Like if it was happening now. Or whatever.

SPEAKER_06

His message is to live now.

SPEAKER_03

And his message is to live now because he has this disease that he's been living with, so he has like a significant reason. So that's why I'm saying, is it now like oh like something happened or just you're dying? Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Not even that. His point, the point I think that I gathered from him was that you're here now.

SPEAKER_00

Right.

SPEAKER_06

You're here right now, right?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

So, and he wants his girls to know to live right now, be present.

SPEAKER_00

Right.

SPEAKER_06

Because you can spend your days as an adult in here.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

And then you're two or three weeks, sometimes months ahead of time, because you know shit's coming up, you're doing X, Y, Z, right? But what would you want your kid to know and understand and feel? What would you leave behind? What was the question I said? Um what message would you want to leave behind specifically to your children and people who who you care about when you do go, right? What's that you're living for now that you want them to know and live by? This is somebody who got diagnosed something last year and now he's Yeah, he's gone.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I would want my kids to not be selfish, but live for themselves. Do you know what makes you happy. Yeah. Do what feels good to you in your heart, even if other people are telling you you should go against it.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I love that.

SPEAKER_06

That's deep.

SPEAKER_03

You know.

SPEAKER_06

I like that a lot. What about you later yourself?

SPEAKER_01

Well. Actually, it's crazy because I think about this a lot. You know what I mean? Like just not being here for my kids. I've never really thought about like what to say. Like, I know what I want for them. You know? It's just I guess I would tell them to get to know each other and love each other, take care of each other. Yeah. Because really nobody's gonna take care of your kids like you will. For sure. So it's like if I'm gone, I would like for them to all have pieces of me and bring that together.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And take care of each other without me because I'm very close to my kids. Okay. And I think they'd be devastated if I wasn't here.

SPEAKER_06

The whole entire planet.

SPEAKER_03

So, and then obviously, mean living with heart disease and constantly going on heart failure, like this is a very scary but real thought for me.

SPEAKER_06

For sure. I I get it. So, um your perspective is very unique.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, I I would for sure just want them to be close and take care of each other.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And then find all those pieces of me within each other. I fucking love that. That's fucking dope.

SPEAKER_06

Listen up, children. Sorry, I shouldn't have cursed.

SPEAKER_03

That's alright.

SPEAKER_01

They've heard me say far worse.

SPEAKER_06

That is awesome. I it's funny that you said that because I wrote something down that I would want to tell my sons. I wrote two things down. I said, I would tell my sons to chase the source of all things. I said, God. I put Proverbs 3 verse 5, um, which says, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge him, and he will make your path straight. I feel if I could tell anybody that on the planet, again. Yeah, run with that. Um, I would tell them to love each other very fiercely because this life is barely worth living without love. That's what I'll tell them. Wellington Weston. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Right.

SPEAKER_06

This is what I got for you, bro. Um you got something.

SPEAKER_03

I started fuck. I'm not gonna cry, you're crying. No, I'm not, I'm not. Um, you know, the kids are touchy.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. I started a journal. I have leather journals.

SPEAKER_06

Fire.

SPEAKER_03

And I wanna I started writing in each one. One for Gia, one for Zoe.

SPEAKER_06

Fire.

SPEAKER_03

And I I need to um, I need to find time, even if it's an hour a day. Not even if it doesn't have to be an hour, but minutes in a day to write in both of them.

SPEAKER_06

That's fire.

SPEAKER_03

And just do that because if anything ever happened, I think about it too. You know, when you're a parent, you think about it. Yeah. A lot. Yeah. And if anything ever happened to me when I'm gone, I want them to know how I feel about them, why I've done all the things I did, why they were mad at me about something they were mad at me about, and just being able to talk to them through something that they can keep uh close to them, yeah, and with them. I feel like it's important.

SPEAKER_06

Big time. I feel like a lot of parents never get there with their children.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Especially when they enter adulthood.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

They just forget that you you kind of need that other piece of it as an a kid growing up to an adult. You don't talk about the bills, you don't talk about the this and the that.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_06

You know what I mean? So, or why this was happening, why we lived here. We don't they don't know that.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, we forget a lot of times that our parents were like young.

SPEAKER_02

Not people. But they were their own people. They are their own people.

SPEAKER_06

Living their life trying to figure that shit out. It's good and bad. Big time with their own parents.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_03

So I actually do think about that type of shit.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. So you gotta give them grace. I think that's where I forgave my dad because I realized that he I think it was just doing that shit the best he could. Yeah. Yeah. You know, definitely. And I can't fault him for as a man for doing the best he could with what he got.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah. And like our mom lost her mom at a young age. Yeah, so young. Like when you think about it, she was 20 years old. Like, I literally couldn't even imagine right now.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

At 36, like, no way.

SPEAKER_06

Definitely. I this is a touchy subject.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, we might have to make this a main. Yeah. Yeah, because we could we could uh we it could be uh uh parents or people too. We talked about that. We talked about something like that. Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_02

Mind your business, guys. You don't know our topics. You don't know about our topics.

SPEAKER_06

I got one more question for you guys. Okay. What are you doing now for yourself and for others?

SPEAKER_03

Well, for myself, I really have been doing my best to be in a space of just positivity and optimism because I've been struggling a lot, and a lot of it just has to do with how I'm feeling um physically, you know. So um, because I really do struggle and and yes, I push through it, but I don't think that's always the best thing for me. It's not always the healthiest thing. I just do it because I look at like what other choice do I have? You know, like these kids gotta eat, these kids gotta get to school, these kids gotta get picked up.

SPEAKER_01

Like my world literally revolves around being a mom. Being a mom, yes. And and I'm not complaining. I love it.

SPEAKER_03

I love that I'm even in a space right now to be able to give that to them, her kids and mine. You know, it just um gets to a point where sometimes I feel like I don't have that time anymore just for me.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, like to just sit with myself and decompress and like really just take care of myself. Um, because I don't I just don't have the things that I need to to be able to do that right now, and I know it's gonna change. So that's where like the positivity and the optimism come in for me. Um, and what was the other part of the question? I'm sorry. That's what I'm doing for me. What are you doing for us for others? Oh, for others?

SPEAKER_06

You do for others really.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I just think pretty much told you. Yeah, taking care of them. Take care of my kids while I work. That's something huge.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Not just not. She takes care of my kids so I can work and do everything. It's not no, but yeah, it comes like full circle when when you think about it. Like she's able to do what she needs to do, and and the kids are safe, they're taken care of, and yeah. And I get to throw money at everybody as well. I love it. I love it. Um, I feel like what am I doing for myself? Right now, what I feel like I'm doing for myself mostly is this podcast.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I feel like this is something that I am super focused on. It means more to me than I can really put into words. And it's fulfilling me in ways that are new, and in some ways that I've been waiting for. So it I'm still processing that we're doing this. And what I'm doing for other people, if I'm keeping it in pod terror uh territory, I feel like hopefully I'm making people laugh, hopefully I'm giving people insight, us collectively, you know. Yeah. Um that's what I feel. That's fine. That's what I'm doing right now. I feel like I feel like I'm supplying you, you people, you good people, you good menaces with laughs and things. I was gonna say I'm supplying you, motherfucker. You know, I'm like fucking Samuel Jackson. That must have been my my daddy in another life. But yeah, that's how I feel. I feel like I'm doing things that are great for a community that we might not know yet. Right. And that's slowly growing every day, and I love that.

SPEAKER_06

Big time. Sweet. You I am focusing on my physical body.

SPEAKER_01

I love that.

SPEAKER_06

Um the more time I spend on eating the right things um or eating within my caloric intake, um, the more time I spend walking, I'm healing my body, which makes me better. I feel better.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

If I feel better, I look better, and if I look better, I am I'm acting. I walk the park, walk the walk, as it were.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Um, and how you do one thing is how you do everything, so that's gonna translate in all the other areas of my life.

SPEAKER_01

So Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I've been eating like a pig before we started the pod. I had popcorn, I had candy, I had Chinese, that was Reese's, I had juice, I had It's okay. I'm sorry, it's it's that time of the month.

SPEAKER_02

I've got to take back together.

SPEAKER_03

That's why I'm going hiking in the blizzard tomorrow morning. I'm gonna go ahead and fight it.

SPEAKER_06

It feels good, but don't get me wrong, like I just spent probably like four or five months where I just didn't care about my diet. Yeah, and I feel different as I've been taking like the habits that I need to take.

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_06

Feel very different. I feel lighter. Yes. Yep, actually lighter. Yeah, because yeah, ladies, that's all I have for attitude and gratitude.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_06

Live for now, guys. Not that you shouldn't prepare for the future, but be present.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Yeah. You know, that's something I'm gonna do. It's very easy to not. Yeah, it is. You know, I think uh stay present with the emotions and always, I miss you guys, I miss my girl. Yeah. But also, um, I don't know, staying in tune. For sure. Staying in tune. Just working through the all right now. Let's get off the heavy and get ready for. Oh god, wait. For me to whoop some ass.

SPEAKER_01

Last one. You're not too real. You're just unfiltered and sometimes careless.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, and the hell. It's like, nah, that's for real. That's about me.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna take my hat off.

SPEAKER_06

Oh yeah, you're delusional.

SPEAKER_01

Shoes and fitting. Yeah. He's fitting a little good.

SPEAKER_02

I'm a real ass bitch. I'm real.

SPEAKER_03

I hate when people walk around saying that shit. I'm real. I'm a real ass nigga. If you're real, we gon' feel it, sucker. Right. And you are. That is hilarious.

SPEAKER_06

Real lips in the game, kid.

SPEAKER_03

That's all I have for the delusion olympics. I like it. Thanks for the shots. I like it a lot. You're welcome. That was good. Now it's time for our main topic, I believe.

SPEAKER_06

Sure is.

SPEAKER_03

Or am I jumping the gun? Gotti! Gotti.

SPEAKER_06

You don't have to do me every time I did it once. Um I have a question.

SPEAKER_03

You always do.

SPEAKER_06

I always do. Are other people responsible for your triggers?

SPEAKER_01

Hells yeah. I don't let me think about this. I don't have to think about it. No, other people aren't responsible.

SPEAKER_06

They're not. I like that. Um triggers are a wound. It's like a bruise that you get. And if somebody touches it, does that make them is it their fault that you have a bruise?

SPEAKER_03

You see if they don't touch it.

SPEAKER_06

Is it is it their fault that they touched it, or is it just indicative that you are in need of healing? And maybe safeguarding yourself. So that you don't because typically when somebody says that triggered me or you triggered me to do this, their behavior on the other side of the triggering is not appropriate, you know, or it's not nice or whatever the case might be.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Mind over matter, self-control.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I feel like sometimes people like think that being triggered it means that you're being disrespectful, but those aren't the same things.

SPEAKER_03

Right. No, it's I it's being triggered is a feeling. What comes after that is what comes after that. You're you feel triggered, meaning something someone did or said or something that happened is what triggered you. That was the trigger.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

However, my I feel like you are in control of how you let those things affect you.

SPEAKER_06

100%.

SPEAKER_03

And which brings the mind over matter into play and whatever else I said, I'm sorry. Are we tired? A little bit. Um, but um, yeah, I I just that's I just feel like you are in control of your trigger points. Train yourself not to be triggered by the shit that triggers you. That's easier said than done for sure.

SPEAKER_06

But yeah, your triggers, I mean your trauma explains who you are, explains why you might do what you do. But it that's still not an excuse for your behavior in light of that, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, because seek the help you need to must. You must fix that.

SPEAKER_06

It's your responsibility to manage your own behavior.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Even though the trauma is valid.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_06

You know, somebody might say, I've been cheated on before, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you are that now I have to accept you being overly jealous or you know, controlling or any of the other things that may be associated with somebody getting triggered.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

You know, you're out in public and your your boyfriend is charismatic, and so he's working the crowd.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_06

But you're insecure because you think he's flirting with everyone. Right.

SPEAKER_03

How many times has I actually big girl panties on bitch? I'll live alone.

SPEAKER_06

You know?

SPEAKER_03

Damn. That was harsh.

SPEAKER_06

Is is accountability the same as blame?

SPEAKER_03

Get that together. Huh?

SPEAKER_06

Do you feel like accountability is the same as blame?

SPEAKER_03

No. Hell no.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You can blame anything on anyone and have no leg to stand on. You know, you're just saying anything. And accountability is something I feel like is a personal thing that you have to do. Like nobody can take accountability. Well, people can take accountability for other people. Take accountability for your shit.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. I well, a reason why you say that is because when somebody's triggered, they are blaming somebody else for that feeling.

SPEAKER_03

That's the easy thing to do. Exactly. And that's where that work needs to come in for you to go fix what might be bothering you. Therapy or girl, whatever the case may be. And realize I am allowing this thing, person, situation to control me. And yeah. Yeah. I'm allowing it. And I feel like once you start thinking like that, you're like, shit, I'm doing this to myself.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, you you hold yourself accountable, and that sustains you long term rather than you said that to me, and that that messed up what I was thinking, or you messed up my mood.

SPEAKER_03

So every time someone says that thing to you, you're gonna mess get your thoughts messed up, or you're gonna get triggered emotionally. So material to do is train yourself, then I guess to not be fucking triggered by those things.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I'm getting annoyed.

SPEAKER_06

We live in a world triggered. We live in a world of perpetual offense. Everybody's offended by everything.

SPEAKER_03

It's disgusting. Well, there's nobody has a backbone. I can't take shit on the chin and just like everything is not about you. Mm-hmm. Like a period.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. And people are sensitive. We get that.

SPEAKER_03

But people are insecure. People are miserable. People are people are old. People are sensitive. Yeah, they really are.

SPEAKER_06

And they disguise those things as triggers.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, and so just know that a lot of those people that are like that has nothing to do with you. It's everything to do with them and their bullshit that they're not dealing with. For sure. Oh, I can go on for days about this.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. I just realized even just that in my workspace, sometimes people will say, Yeah, I'm just I'm just a little triggered into de escalator.

SPEAKER_03

I need to look how can the same thing be.

SPEAKER_06

But it's a response.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_06

And I get that. But you're responsible for how you behave even if you get triggered.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

So exactly. I don't know. The adulting, when you I obviously everyone is wants to be lighthearted, but when when you're adulting, especially out here in this world, like people don't realize that how you behave around other people is important, right? You can fuck up somebody's whole mood.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And get punched.

SPEAKER_06

If you're fucking with the wrong person. Because you can't regulate.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah. Especially as an adult though. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

You can fuck up situations for yourself.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

That reputation is a big thing. You can be known as somebody who's even like at work, somebody somebody might say you're ghetto, you know what I mean? And that that's not necessarily a bad thing per se, because we understand some cultural nuances there. Yeah. But you don't want to be seen as unreasonable or lacking decency or things like that. So that was my main topic today, ladies. I just realized that I've been dealing with a lot of people who are triggered lately now don't understand it because I'm super level mind.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Don't let a lot of shit get to me.

SPEAKER_03

So but you also use your brain and you think of other situations. You you're not just like so focused on one thing. You're like, how can I make this better? How can I get through this? Yeah. Opposed to just let me just lash out and express myself in a childish way. For sure. That I think that does have a lot to do with trauma. I think it also is a huge thing to do with lack of emotional control.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Even at there's people I know 50 plus. Still struggling with no emotional control.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And it's just that's selfish in a way. I had to think about it like that when I I didn't have emotional control, alright? I'm doing things, but it's not just affecting me. I I couldn't care how it affects me because it made me feel good at the time. But big picture and long term, it's not always a good thing. Big time.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Work on yourselves, guys. I'm working on myself too.

SPEAKER_03

Me too. Every day, daily. That should be a thing that people are doing all the time. It's not your it that work is never done. You can always be better, you can always learn more. You can always grow. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Even with, you know, at an elderly age, it never stops. Yeah. So yeah.

SPEAKER_01

That's all I got. I liked it. Yes. Like the weather we've been having here.

SPEAKER_04

It's the hot seat.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I was talking and I meant to ask before Reese we even started today. I was thinking I was just gonna pick some questions today that we all could answer in the hot seat. Okay. Instead of picking the names. Kind of tired of swishing around that bowl. I do kind of like that. I know. I like that too. I can't lie, I'm not gonna lie, I'm being lazy today. Yeah, I know it means you know what? Fuck it. We'll pick the names. I got the bowl right here. Just say you want to answer some questions. Listen, I don't ever mind answering questions. We're gonna go ahead and pick. Tell the truth. I love the truth. So how many guys? Alright. Well, God must I hear Jack as a cheer turn, buddy. This is why I shut the f no, you go ahead and you keep talking to me. You go ahead and you keep on chatting.

SPEAKER_06

Great.

SPEAKER_03

Keep on chatting to me.

SPEAKER_06

Great.

SPEAKER_03

Alright.

SPEAKER_06

This is your fault. We're supposed to all answer this question.

SPEAKER_03

Alright. Are you afraid of abandonment or intimacy?

SPEAKER_06

Intimacy. You wanna get close.

SPEAKER_01

Abandonment is easy. I can be by myself. For sure. I'm sorry, that's not my question.

SPEAKER_03

Are you afraid of abandonment or intimacy? And you said you wouldn't even get close.

SPEAKER_01

He's afraid of intimacy.

SPEAKER_06

You want to get close.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_06

That's a lot. Let's be honest.

SPEAKER_03

I need a breakdown. Why?

SPEAKER_06

Um, again, because they see the good and the bad. A lot of people they hide behind the person that they want people to see.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

You know, the what we all put on to go out into the world, and that's not while that is you, I respect you putting that person on. That's not all of you, right? You might have a host of things that you hide from the world that this person now sees. And you see it daily. This happens a lot in marriage. Like you get married, especially if you do it traditionally, you don't live with each other. Now you're together in the house and they see all of it. Right? See all the faults. And that person has to choose to love you in spite of those things. That's a lot because not a lot of people have it in them to give you that.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

They say they want love, but that shit is different when you're giving somebody real intimacy and they can see. Transparently what's going on.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

I'm I'm afraid of that shit because bitches is weird. And they will take that and they won't uplift you. They might tear you down. Niggas are weird. That's a trauma response, Joe.

SPEAKER_04

Oh well. The first step is admin that brother Benoit.

SPEAKER_03

Yo. Yeah, listen. That was good. There he is.

SPEAKER_01

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_06

Good question.

SPEAKER_01

That was a good question.

SPEAKER_03

Thanks.

SPEAKER_06

Shutting the fuck up now.

SPEAKER_03

Shit. It's me. All right. And not laugh. Nothing to say right now. Okay. Um I have this one that I'm sorry. I'm taking me. I have a lot on here, guys, so excuse me. All right. What's a text that you regret sending immediately? Damn. I sent a lot of texts. I don't know that I regret sending them. Actually, I will say one time I sent that text. I think I was probably supposed to be texting you or you or whatever. One time off I told them about himself. I said I'm texting whoever telling them about it. I sent the text to Damn, should I be saying his name? I sent the text to my manager. Yeah, I sent the text to my manager.

SPEAKER_06

Sick.

SPEAKER_03

About my manager.

SPEAKER_06

Fucking awesome.

SPEAKER_03

Himself. Hilarious. And I was like, I went and looked for him. I was like, oh, that wasn't, that wasn't for you. Like, he just, you know how he is. He ain't say shit.

SPEAKER_06

He was just hilarious. I love that you told him about himself. I do.

SPEAKER_03

I usually do.

SPEAKER_06

Most people don't. I'm a new lead the charge.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I, you know, I love to lead the rebellion. It's my dream.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I gotta make you uncomfortable now because you're fucking with me.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I was like, yo, I did not just send him this text about it.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I might have been sick to my stomach if I did some shit like that.

SPEAKER_03

I probably was like, I had an oh shit moment for about two seconds, and I'm like, bitch, it's done. What are you gonna do? What's he gonna do?

SPEAKER_01

Oh well.

SPEAKER_03

Right, report me to HR.

SPEAKER_06

And didn't.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, because he knows he's a fucking weirdo.

SPEAKER_03

That would be a battle that I would win. It was a lot. So on to the next. That wasn't even that bad. I because I don't have any I said what I said. Super text like that I really regret sending. Yeah, if I said it, I meant it when I fucking said it.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, same.

SPEAKER_03

There's that. Look at all three of us getting picked. If love required full vulnerability, would you qualify?

SPEAKER_01

I would not.

SPEAKER_03

I'm with something I'm working on. Okay. Why?

SPEAKER_01

Why am I working on it?

SPEAKER_03

Break down.

SPEAKER_06

Why are you afraid to be vulnerable?

SPEAKER_01

Um I don't even know if it's that I'm afraid. I think at times I just don't know how. Like haven't had that experience to just know what I like. I don't know what that looks like.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Just being completely yourself. Being completely not like, okay. Well, I do, but be yourself with someone, but like just the full comfortability, yeah, full just the whole full package, but what the heck.

SPEAKER_06

Do you feel like it won't be received if you I don't mind, you know, give it?

SPEAKER_03

No, I don't think that. I mean, obviously it depends. Like I always say shit's situational. So I guess it depends on who it is you're dealing with.

SPEAKER_01

But like I literally rem I I was telling you guys I had that conversation um with Travis the other day, and you know, was just thinking back on like things like how our relationship went and and stuff like that and how it ended and things.

SPEAKER_03

And you know, he was just saying like once pretty much like once we got into a relationship, like some of the things that I used to do, I kind of stopped doing. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So um definitely noticed that I lack consistency in some areas, and that is something huge that I feel like going into my next relationship, I would for sure need to have in check so that I'm not pushing someone away.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, because of that.

SPEAKER_06

It's fire. So I'm gonna take some of that too.

SPEAKER_03

Well, that was hot seat. I feel like that was not bad.

SPEAKER_06

It was like mild.

SPEAKER_03

I'm disgusted. It was very therapeutic, though.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, it was good. Okay. This whole episode has been just I'm trying to make you guys uncomfortable.

SPEAKER_01

Flat? I would say it's flat. I mean. I don't I just don't understand how it could be round. Maybe flat round?

SPEAKER_03

Gravity. Could I say that?

SPEAKER_01

Flat round.

SPEAKER_06

Explain that.

SPEAKER_03

Like this spherical. Like how the top of this is.

SPEAKER_06

This is what I think it is. A plane.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And we're in a dome.

SPEAKER_06

And they're brain covered.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Controlling the weather.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Niggas are creating clouds. Yeah. Fucking that.

SPEAKER_06

If we've never been to space, how do we know that the earth is round and not hollow?

SPEAKER_01

I heard space is the ocean.

SPEAKER_06

They're lying to us. They're not telling us the whole truth.

SPEAKER_01

People can't handle the truth.

SPEAKER_06

I know. I think that um we have too many different types of ecosystems here. And there are too many like different anomalies. Did you know that there is a cave in Vietnam that has its own ecosystem?

SPEAKER_03

No. No.

SPEAKER_06

There are it's mist, but they are they look like clouds inside the cave.

SPEAKER_03

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_06

It's humongous.

SPEAKER_03

I would love to see that. And it's not underwater in its clouds.

SPEAKER_06

Outside no.

SPEAKER_03

No. It's inside the cave.

SPEAKER_06

Inside the cave. This gigantic cave in Vietnam. Maybe we can.

SPEAKER_01

So there must be some type of moisture.

SPEAKER_06

It has its own ecosystem. There's forests inside the cave.

SPEAKER_03

Oh my goodness. Like it's whole. Like a whole nother world. Yes.

SPEAKER_06

Yes. And scientists are finding things like We're artists. Right.

SPEAKER_03

Next, we start a band. I'm sorry. I decided to get that out.

SPEAKER_06

Making the band.

SPEAKER_03

No, no, Diddy. No, we're gonna leave that right there.

SPEAKER_06

Diddy is crazy work. Yeah, we're not doing that. Um but you know, there are things like that happening that are all over the planet that indicate that it might not be what they're telling us it is.

SPEAKER_03

It never fucking is. Yeah, I don't sit here. I'm sorry, please.

SPEAKER_06

Most people would think that you're crazy before thinking the earth is flat, though.

SPEAKER_03

Because most people are idiots, and that's fine.

SPEAKER_01

Everybody is damn entitled to their opinions and and you know, some people know actual factual things, and I am not that girl.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Well, what we do know or what we should know is that they're for sure not telling us anything that's solid. If I don't go to a place and see that shit myself with my own two eyes, I don't give a fuck what they don't know. I believe everything I see. I'll take it with a grain and I'll move around.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. I I know that there are things that, you know, gravity, oxygen, that science attempts to explain. And they do a good job of trying to get us to understand it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

But as a whole, the entire thing is being misrepresented.

SPEAKER_03

Manipulated. You know what they count on. People not like you trying to figure it out. They count on the people going with what they're saying and just going with it because it just is what it is. Like a lot of people, I just I can't stand the people that just buy into everything without asking or second guessing.

SPEAKER_06

You and I have been outside in the wilderness in wilderness too much for me to not question what the hell's going on here.

SPEAKER_00

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

And do I think that I would love for there to be tons of planets, Star Wars style. That'd be fucking.

SPEAKER_03

That would be dope. I'm fucking out of here. That would be so great.

SPEAKER_06

I would love that. Right now.

SPEAKER_03

What's that cave looking like? Well, uh, pretty soon it'll probably go to shit because if people are finding out about it and they know Know about it, uh, they'll find a way to ruin it. So good luck with that.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Yes, in Vietnam, Hang Dum Sam, I don't know how you pronounce it. It's insane. But yeah, this cave is humongous, and uh it shouldn't exist as far as I'm concerned. You can walk in there and never come out.

SPEAKER_03

Right. Crazy.

SPEAKER_06

You know? And I've never seen a cave that has an entire forest in there than ever.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

I'm sure more shit like that exists, they're just not telling us.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, we're just it's not discovered.

SPEAKER_06

Right. Um, and this is from 2000 like early 2000s, late 2000s, late 1990s.

SPEAKER_02

We can't wait to resurface this.

SPEAKER_06

You know. I I and I I know that I'm I have it's a skill set that I have, and that's where I am glad that I can at least stand in the ring with some of the best ones that are out there, right?

SPEAKER_03

You're yeah, I think and that's not just because we're a team, like obviously if the editing sucked, I'd be like, we'd be like, hold on a second. We gotta find someone immediately. Yeah, for sure. And you we don't need any of everything you guys see, it is by this hand, right? This hand and this hand.

SPEAKER_06

unknown

SPEAKER_06

Move that there, move that. My guy. I'm surprised she hasn't taken videos of me falling asleep editing because I we breathe the shit. Who says that I didn't?

SPEAKER_02

Oh who says that I don't have it?

SPEAKER_06

Nigga, send that shit. You got it, send it.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Send it.

SPEAKER_06

Don't you guys want to see it?

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

I'ma send it. And I'll let you make that decision. But yeah. So, Risa, what are you talking your shit about? So, I don't like that a lot of times men take kindness for an invitation from women.

SPEAKER_01

And then when it's not received well, we have to worry as women about men getting upset about it, getting offended.

SPEAKER_03

Now we're weird, we're bitches, we're all types of crazy shit because I'm just you said hi to me, I'm saying hi back because I have manners.

SPEAKER_01

And now it's an issue because I'm not interested in carrying on a conversation with you or giving you my phone number or whatever the case may be. So that um that irritates me a lot.

SPEAKER_03

That can be irritating. And if you're a guy and you're doing that, you're just clearly you get no vagina and you don't have gang? Don't be a dick. Yeah, you're a dick. Yeah, no. Not only even if you don't even that could be a thing too, but we don't have gang.

SPEAKER_06

Not that not that she doesn't want to give you, you don't want to give the number. It's not that how you go about it. How you go about it is one thing. Also, I feel like the kind of man who introduced introduced themselves to women, and then immediately after she doesn't give you that response that you're looking for, call her a bitch or you're not pretty anyway, or any of the shit that they want to say. You are you got some shit going on in and that you gotta go deal with, right?

SPEAKER_01

Right, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Because you're not looking at her one as a person. This is about the conquest for you, and at the end of the day, though there's now there's really not anything for you to talk about. So yeah. I hate that for you. I hate that for all women because damn, you missing out on one, just a very cordial conversation, one you're missing out on just a salutation. It's nice to say hello, we forgot to do that nowadays, right?

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_06

And just because we go there doesn't mean it needs to go farther than that.

SPEAKER_01

Right. Exactly.

SPEAKER_06

Just because you accept the like or the follow on Instagram or t or Facebook doesn't mean that we have to be best friends.

SPEAKER_03

And you'll know when someone wants to for sure take it further. Like if I'm being cold or dry or whatever, might not want to go there with you. Take the hint, Bucko.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's annoying. Stop being dicks, guys. It's cool, and people can't it's the can't handle rejection thing, too. But get that shit together. Well, my talk your shit today would be um single mom bashing. Hmm. Interesting. Like the sh some of the things that I even just see online. Yeah. It's insane. Like, you know, you know, men saying, oh, don't date a woman with kids, or she got more than one. Like, you know, or men who don't have kids, you know, don't date women with kids. Like, you don't know people's circumstances, you don't know a person. You can't just look at a person and be like, oh, they got kids, leave that train or it's not always that situation. And there's some men that can't have kids.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Or even on a woman, on a woman's side, like dating men that that have kids, and maybe a woman can't have kids. That's why they're, you know, in that situation. It's just like people trying to coexist elsewhere, yeah. I also know in my big old mind that people talk and are very uneducated as well. So it's just annoying, and uh, yeah, I'm a little biased and get a little triggered because I'm a single mom. And it's like it does make me think about those things. And so when we talked about like dating younger, shit like that makes me think about that. But I'm courteous enough to like tell you, like, all right, you know, you I got a lot going on. Maybe you should have you know find somebody that doesn't have as much going on, but stop bashing single moms. Some of us are freaking awesome, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

For sure.

SPEAKER_03

I know we are, we're freaking totally awesome. Yeah, you see, I don't look at myself as a single mom, and that's only because, yeah, my kids' dads are in their lives, so it's just like I'm a single woman. Me too. Yeah, um, not a single mom. Their dads are for sure fully present.

SPEAKER_01

Um, take care of pretty much anything I need if I need it, if they need it. And um, I don't I know a lot of people bash and and shit like that, and that's some shit you gotta deal with. You know what I mean? Like if you and and it everything doesn't need to be said either.

SPEAKER_03

If that's like what you don't want to do, then don't do it. Yeah, unless like a single mom is approaching you and you're like, listen, I'm not really interested in dating women with kids or whatever. If people could be that way, what a wonderful place the world would be. Yeah, but you know, people aren't like that. So that was my talking of shit. I I've thought about that a lot for a long time. Just in what, like I said, when I see shit, it's a little triggering because I know some great single mothers and you know, just single women, whatever you want to call it. I'm a single mother and a single woman. I say a single mother, my oldest daughter's father is in her life, not as much as I would love him to be, but I am grateful for what he does. Um, but I'm I'm a single mom, bro. Yeah, like let's be real.

SPEAKER_01

I do yeah, everything everything. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Outside of what my you guys helped me. Right. Um, stop bashing single moms. I mean, we're pretty great. We got a lot going on. We deserve love too, and we're open to love and loving.

SPEAKER_01

And you know, my shit situation is just different. Yeah. Al takes the twins every week, every other week, I mean, and then like Key's dad'll pick her. I'll drop her off at school.

SPEAKER_03

He picks her up every day. Yeah. So it's just it's like Yeah. I had another one I wanted to go with, but I think I'll save that for next week. Yeah. It's kind of kind of coincides, but yeah, we'll talk about that next week. I'll save it.

SPEAKER_06

Sweetness.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, but that was my talk to shit. You know, it'd be fun like just making a whole I like that though, that you brought that up. Because I feel like a lot of people feel that way. Yeah. Because you see it so much. Like, even women with like men too. Yeah. It's like, oh, he has kids, I'm not. You know what I'm saying? Right. And there are some amazing men with kids and and amazing dads, and but whatever, you know, you you miss out.

SPEAKER_06

If um Yeah, I think you uh in relationships, especially romantic ones, you gotta understand that you're dealing with the person.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Not the other responsibilities. They could be somebody who works at Target as well. You're gonna say they're not worthy of being dated because they're of their profession.

SPEAKER_00

Right.

SPEAKER_06

No. It's that who they are is what you're getting to know.

SPEAKER_00

Yes.

SPEAKER_06

That might come with children. But if you're there for them, you're learning that that's just a small portion of who they are as an individual.

SPEAKER_03

Right, yeah. So I love kids. A person's circumstances aren't who they are. Right. If you're interested, be interested, get to know the person. For sure. Judging from the outside, then have fun with that. Sounds like a long week.

SPEAKER_06

And she got kids, that means she's laying it set.

SPEAKER_02

Like, that does not mean it.

SPEAKER_06

Yes, the fuck it does.

SPEAKER_03

It does not mean that. It doesn't mean that. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

She's ready for that. She's gonna call you. Hey, I need this. I'm lying.

SPEAKER_03

Frig, are you looking at me so hard? Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead. I did.

SPEAKER_06

I just know that that, I mean, they're busy. You guys are busy single mothers.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_06

SPEAKER_03

Scheduling the appointments. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Immediately.

SPEAKER_03

Drop that off. Somebody drop some off to me.

SPEAKER_06

Right, and you have to drop it off because you know the kids gotta be, yeah, it's a whole situation. And so she's gonna come prepared to lay it down on you, bro.

SPEAKER_03

So that's hilarious.

SPEAKER_06

Don't ever disrespect the single moments like that.

SPEAKER_02

Damn.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_06

Change it.

SPEAKER_01

That's right.

SPEAKER_06

I've never forgotten that since you said it, so thank you.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, say it louder one more time.

SPEAKER_06

Absolutely.

unknown

Fuck yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Absolutely. When I was 27, 28 years old, I I'd been married. About four years ago. Yeah, I was married for like nine years, right, guys. So when I was 27, 28 years old, I started something started to switch in terms of like how I understood my masculinity. And I realized that if you don't respect what you find to be boundaries for yourself, no one else is going to.

SPEAKER_07

Of course not.

SPEAKER_06

Right? And as soon as I started doing that is when, well you never felt like that before.

SPEAKER_01

Yep. Now you act indifferent.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, you acting different now. What I realized is I didn't have any respect for myself or what I have as expectations.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Before, and that's probably because I was happy go lucky in love, and that's understandable. But you know, now we are more shrewd and prudent about those types of things. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, because I my standards are very not high, but I know what it is that I would like for myself.

SPEAKER_03

That's great.

SPEAKER_06

I'm not gonna compromise on that.

SPEAKER_03

Good. That's wonderful. And you really and then once you do stand on those things, you see how things fall apart.

SPEAKER_06

Correct. And I know what what what attracts me is what I want.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

So absolutely, I receive that as well. I love this fucking segment, man.

SPEAKER_03
