if it's frashing, no, because listen, if you if something
just happened, I'm not worried about the physical. It's your mental.
Your life just changed. And if we're dating, I think
that's a lot to put on me. If we're dating,

(00:21):
I'm not speaking it. Like if I'm married and my husband,
something happens, you my husband, we gonna figure it out.
But if it's somebody I'm dating and we're just like
light dating and.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Something happens, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
But if it's like somebody who walks up to me
and you got that peg leg on, I don't give
a fuck. You can walk. They be putting them legs on,
and sometimes it be up to the hip and they
can walk. It may be a little limp. I walk

Speaker 2 (00:54):
A good man it's hard to find if he ain't
got a leg.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
I don't give a damn.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
I'm sorry if you didn't find out though until like.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
That. That's what I'm saying about about about what if.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
You was finally get into the bed and then he
took the leg off and put it on the side
of the bed.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
By that point we're deep into it.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
And if he has a leg that means he's deep
in his amputy journey. You don't care about that leg long,
I don't do as long as that do. That did
get hard.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
That's why I said, long, work, take that leg off
and let's get to work.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
What's up, y'all?

Speaker 1 (01:50):
It's your girl legs p and it's suggarl Dre and
the call. Now you are tuned in to another episode
of Poor Mine, where mind speaks sober thoughts. We ain't
got no guests today. We ain't got no guests today?
A oh lord. You know they love the solos, girl,
they be waiting on them. They've been a grand all time.

(02:13):
You know. It's more chills. See, we got the flat
song we do. We've bove me that, we telled twin
we be baving. You don't didn't me go like that? Yeah,
like little something like that. I'm like this something like that. Oh, so,
how have you been? Girl? What's see. I've been good.

(02:35):
I've been great. I've just been you know, trying to
stay busy.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Really trying to lock in on my goals because it's
the last quarter of the year.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
And you know, I got shipped to do period.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
I got stuff that I'm trying to accomplish, and like,
I've just been really trying to stay focused and like
stay the course because.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
This has been a really great year. God, it's been
a really great yell.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
It's been a really great year, I think for both
of us with poor minds professionally and then just you know, separately,
we both have had like great things going on with
our own separate businesses. But like twenty twenty six, I
really want to take she out of here to the
next level. So I just been really trying to hone
in and like focus and you know, be consistent with

(03:21):
my goals and like not get distracted. I just finished
reading this book called The Twelve Week Year.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
He told me about that book.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Mm hmm, I don't know. I can't remember if I
talked about it on the show. You told me about
it when we were on the phone a long time ago,
but I can't remember.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
If you talked about it on the show or not.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yeah, I just finished reading it, like hmm, maybe like
three four weeks.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Ago, and it's really really good.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
Like, I think it's good for people who like procrastinate
a lot because it just teaches you to look at
your year from like a twelve week standpoint instead of
fifty two weeks. Because one of the main reasons why
a lot of us like the beginning.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Of the year, we have all of these goals and.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
All of these accomplishments that we want to complete by
the end of the year. But then, you know, if
we don't do it in the first months, were like, oh,
I still gotta live in more months. If we don't
do it by the third month, we like, oh well
I still got you know, nine more months. Versus if
you looking at your year like it's only twelve weeks
and then you starting it again after another twelve weeks,
you're more likely to accomplish the task that you set

(04:22):
for yourself because you're focusing on one task but it's
twelve weeks and coming up with a plan versus having
like ten different ones within a fifty two week year period.
If that makes it so, Yeah, So I'm just been
trying to stay focused, girl, because we got to get
this money. Like, I be grateful for the money that
we made already, and I don't ever want to make
it seem like it's first world problems, you know, But

(04:44):
I'd be like, I'll be seeing stuff online, houses, cars,
all types of stuff, but I'll be like, needless to
get this motherfucking money.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
We gotta find a way to get this money by tomorrow. Now,
need it now? Yeah? No, I definitely say, y'all feel
like we've come such a long way, but we have
a long way to go.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
But I like that.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
I feel like something has been woken up in us
this year that we got We we done playing with them.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
We let them play on our top long enough.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
What we made, we did, we did, and we've been
doing this silent, silent assassines.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
We love. We don't talk about it too much. We
just let the results speak for themselves. And honestly, like,
outside of that, I just love the fact that the
poor crew is going a growing I saw TikTok yesterday
and one thing I know, I know Poor Mind's content
is not for everybody, right. I know I'm vulgar and you.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Know you're very like I never never had to deal
with that. Don't know what you know. Sometimes I think
people feel.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
I'm just very. I don't give it in right, But
I say I say that in a good way though,
Like you know what I mean, I think that we
are who we are. But it's not a bad I'm
not saying it the bad No, I know, I know.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
I was just saying I feel like that's the good
way to describe me.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
I'm very, I don't care, I can't relate, and I
think a lot of a lot of times our content
isn't for everybody. But I saw TikTok yesterday. I'm actually
gonna pull it up on my phone, and while I
pull it up, I'm gonna say I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
It made me very emotional.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
It did because she was like, you know, poor minds
isn't necessarily my type of content. But I love to
see two black women on the screen being lighthearted and
funny that really love each other.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
And I think we have been robbed of that.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
Oh her name is Maya on TikTok. It's Nashville Maya.
Shout out to you, Maya.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
And I like that.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
I like that people can say, you know what, poor
Mind's maybe not for me, but I fuck with it
because I fuck with what y'all doing. Because I always
say this, We're not here to harm nobody. Were not
here to make you feel bad about yourself. We just
here to have a good time. What is life without
having a good time. If we can make you escape
from whatever you got going on for just the hour

(06:57):
every Friday, that's what we did our job.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
And I'm glad that somebody can see that, Like, hey,
you know what, maybe this is not for me, but
I see two black women who are really friends in
real life, cause y'all know them podcasts behaving each other
they do, you know what I'm saying, or they be
having a lot of hosts and people revolving doors.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
It ain't fat.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
You ain't never gonna see nothing out Poor Minds is
lex P and Dre and you're gonna get this content
every week. So I'm just grateful that the poor crew
is here and that we're growing, and it's just a
testament to like to God and like you said, staying
focused and being on the course. And I think personally,
I know I'll get to yap and y'all I made

(07:37):
a goal for myself because I was like outside of
Poor Minds, Like I felt like poor Minds was it.
But I said, you know what, I'm gonna start love
LEXP because that's something I've been wanting to do. And
I made a goal for myself and I was like,
I need to pay my bills with this so I
can free up my poor Minds money so I'm not
just And I did that. In two months, I pay

(07:57):
my bills. All of my bills were love put. That's good.
And it's like I made that goal for myself. Now
I'm nowhere near where I want to be with either
one of these endeavors. But I think that's the goal,
is to like stay focused and create freedom for yourself,
to have time to do the things you want to do,
to invest in yourself because I do spend a lot
of We spend a lot of money. Every time I

(08:19):
get that damn rocking money notification. You spent this much
between money, excuse me, the taxes and the percentages and
our staff. But I'm just I'm thankful for the staff
that we have. I'm thankful for, like I said, the
poor crew, I'm thankful for you. I'm not gonna lie
to you girl, Like I'll be looking at a lot
of people. I'll be like, God, bless you for real

(08:40):
because you got a business with somebody you hate, or
you're married to something.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Because this is a marriage. We say that all the time.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, I don't give a fuck about nothing, because I know,
even if I'm not clocked in, I know, like Drea
got it, or if Drea's like not feeling this, you know,
I got it. It's just like a good balance, and
it's like it makes it so much easier, just like
being like, Okay, we're fins better kick the ship with
my girl.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I feel grateful all the time. Yeah,
because you're right, like and any so many people who
do start businesses and stuff with their friends and then
it just goes left, like it ends up missing up
the friendship, you know what I mean, or like they
don't end up being as close as they were, or
like they let money and stuff get in the way
of the core foundation of what the friendship was built on.

(09:26):
And I just feel like a lot of those in
a lot of those ways were very blessed because we've
never had to deal with that stuff. Yeah, you know,
because I think we know, neither one of us are
like money hunter.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Yeah yeah, so like.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
You know, because I think about that type of stuff
all the time. But we both very responsible, like if
we know we have to because one thing about me
and Lix were like owing nobody no any so we'll pay.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
We're gonna make sure everybody be paid.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
We won't have no money, but we you know, don't
pay our tabs and don't pay our debts. So I
feel like even with that, that's a blessing, you know,
because we both financially responsible. We never got to worry
about one of the like each other deeping me into
the money. Yeah, like what this what was this sart?
What was you doing with that? Like I don't know.
God really blessed us for sure, with like us being

(10:15):
business partners.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
And being like smart financially and we're still learning, but
it's not like we way behind and we got somebody
that's a little sneaky. Yeah, because you gotta deal with that. Yeah.
I had a homeboy who was like in business with
somebody and he found out like they were stealing a
lot of funds and it was so bad, like he
had to pull out, and now he's suing him.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yeah, so it's like, you know what God's good.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
And how many times do you see that too?

Speaker 3 (10:40):
Like and even just being really hands on because you
know one thing about me, I've bean stoop. I don't
want to know what's going on with everything all the time.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
The way you loved it this morning, because don't get
me wrong, no, because I didn't I knew, like I
didn't think you did was shocks, I said, because I
knew how much the payroll was. And so with all
seems the depositive, I said, ain't no fucking way, ain't
no way, like one thing that I will say, I

(11:10):
don't know. I'm us.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Moving to Atlanta was definitely a blessing and it was
what we needed to get Poor Mindes to where it
has come to. But I don't know what the fuck
we was thinking deciding to move to a fucking state
that has state taxis when we were born in the
state didy night, because them state taxis? Did they take
out of our payroll? Because like LA for the past honestly,

(11:33):
what the past five six years of Poor Mindes, we
was kind of doing Stitt the junkie way when it
came to paying ourselves and stuff. This year, we have
really completely legitimized the business. And even though we have
had like our team on payroll for I think over
a year or two now, we weren't on payroll.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
So we just put ourselves on payroll this year.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
And then goddamn state taxes I be taken aback. It's
like it be blowing the wind out of me every
month time. I just can't believe it.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
And shout out to Johann.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
He been asking us to shout him out, not out
to him, JJ and are associates. I'm telling y'all, if
you aren't an entrepreneur, especially, please stay on top of
your taxes. And when I tell y'all are, I'm not
gonna lie to you because we keep it real at
poor Minds. Our ship was out of whack. It was ugly,

(12:25):
and he came in and it was so much paperwork,
it was so much stuff, and he got it together.
I'm telling y'all, if y'all need to get and you're
an entrepreneur and you're kind of like you don't know
where to start and you need somebody who's really gonna
come in clean that up and help you, y'all, please
hit up JJ and R associates he is in Atlanta. Yes, yeah,

(12:46):
it's not far. And I'm telling you it's been like
a stress reliever.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah, because y'all ain't feel Wesley snipes me.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Hey, we're trying to stay free, hey.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
And we we don't want we that shit was contagious.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
And taxes, and I feel like that's one of the
main ways that like us as black people, especially with
small businesses, like fuck up early on, like not paying
your taxes, and then you make or you're making a
lot of money within those first few years, and you're like, oh,
I'm making all this money and you're not putting nothing.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
To the side, and then God forbid.

Speaker 3 (13:21):
You know, hopefully things don't ever get slow for any
of us, but things get slow for some people.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
And then they didn't save up no tax money.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
So now you owe this money, you owe like fifty
thousand dollars for the past two years, and you don't
even have it saved up, and you're not bringing it
in no more.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
So I'm telling you, I like to I've just learned.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
So I'm so and again I'm thankful for poor minds
because we've came across so many people and earn your leisure,
like having conversations with them, with Rashad and them, It's
like for me, it's like I've learned, why is your
money in the bank? And especially now, I like to
whatever I have left over at the end of the month,

(14:02):
put it somewhere. After I've done paid my bills and
did everything that I need to do, put that money somewhere.
Why is it just sitting in your bank account? Gon
put it in your high savings account. Go put it
in some ETFs. Go put it in some bonds, some
stocks and bonds. Go put it somewhere, y'all. I'm telling you, please,
at least with the high heeld savings account, you have

(14:24):
quick access to it. I'm telling you the worst thing
you can do is let your money just sit in
your bank account.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Please, y'all stop doing that, because I.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
If y'all looked at my my bank account right now,
y'all are like, God, damn, you broke ass, bet. But
they ain't know what they don't know what you got.
You don't know. I keep that thing on you. You
got to keep that on you, And it's easy. Just
start maybe like a little Acorns account. You put me
on the Acorns account that Acorns account. I opened it
up last night.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
I said, I know this mar And then depending on
when you started it, like I started mining like I
think two or three years ago, and I have gained
like I think nine or ten percent entries on the
money that I that's what I'm mean.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's a lot. Like,
that's a lot of money. I think. Uh, financial literacy
is something that we unfortunately miss out on as a community.
And you know what I'm not. I'm still learning. I
am still learning. But for all my people watching, you
don't even have to invest. When I first started my
Acorns account, I ain't have nothing.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
But I'm just like ten.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
Dollars a week, five us to go invest, having five
years to go to the savings and now you know
I'm an aggressive investor. Now no, yeah, me too. But
but I say all that to say.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Just start, Just start. If you can get five dollars
a week.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Just start, because if you put in five dollars in
a week and you're twenty, think of how much money
you gonna have in an account by the time of
the twenty three.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
If I would have been knowing that when I was twenty, Yeah, yeah,
I wouldn't. It wouldn't been no poor minds. I would
have been on that. If I would have bought, I
would have been remind me, please, that shit make me sick. Yeah,
that shit makes Okay. We live and we learn, but
that's all right, Okay, But yeah, these are toy How
have you been? You know the girl they don't like? God, God,

(16:17):
I know what tie got going on. I am great.
It is Q four.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
I feel the same way were on the great lock
in Right now, we are focused.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
We are crushing our goals.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
My birthday just passed in September, yes, and I always
around that around my birthday. I always like, look at
my goals that I set for myself for the year,
and out of ten of them, I already hit eight
and I'm almost done with my last two. Man, I
mean from saving money to my business to personal things
as far as health and wellness and stuff like. I

(16:48):
was just very thankful, grateful and proud of myself for
like locking in and pushing through. So to that point
of the last twelve weeks of the year, stay focused.
Let's crush these goals, y'all. I love to talk about
financial literacy because everybody needs to be buckling down and
what's going on, being aware of what's going on in society,
in the world, and just making sure you have a

(17:09):
nest egg because prices are going up, things are getting
a little bit hectic. We're not gonna get into everything,
but yeah, sure you got yourself protected real going forward.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
I agree.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
Yeah, y'all know, we like to keep things lighthearted over
here at Poor Minds, But at the same time, I
do feel like we will be remiss if we don't
try to educate y'all a little bit because we are
a little older. We definitely you know know what can
happen if you don't prepare or you don't say for
a rainy day. So it's like, well, you know, we
don't want y'all to have to go through this. Listen

(17:41):
to us, because I know a lot of y'all are
like five years ten years younger than listen to what
we're telling y'all in locking save y'all.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Lean And I'm telling y'all because it used to be
like in my toys, was shit went bad, you had
a nigga that would help you out, Okay, not these
niggas ain't got no money. These niggas don't. You can't
even rely on them. I had a conversation with my
friend the other day. These niggas don't got ct E
like they used to. Niggas used to have ct E.
They don't remember that. They just gave you a thousand

(18:09):
dollars yesterday. Now they got protective helmets and ship. They
worried about him. Niggas don't got ct E no more. Man,
when I was in the club, niggas had c t E.
They don't realize they just gave you one hundred dollar.
Life was good. They don't got a lot of things. Yeah,
they don't got it no more. D I T d

(18:41):
I T okay, ther they don't got it. They don't
got it way you know what I'm saying. That's why
I used to cook. I used to cook in the
club at the kitchen. Oh no, when my ct clients
came in, how did you know they had CTS. That's
something you could just you know, honestly, all jokes aside,

(19:04):
because I know y'all probably gonna you can't eyeball that work.
I could. I could. How Like what they even study me?

Speaker 2 (19:12):
He got just the way that erratic.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
They'd be like, yeah, yeah, it's on the fucking party.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
I don't know. Then he comes, then he come back,
and then he comes back. I'm like, where are you?

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah, listen. Then he come back ten minutes later, real calm, Hey,
did you order my wings? You good? Everybody? Y'all good?
I said, Oh, he fucked up in the head. Give
me one hundred dollars whatever you need, sweetie. Then he
come back. Yeah, you like you got? I said, y'all,
Toad was four hundred dollars. Take a thousand, quick little thought.
I'm not playing.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
I would be terrified, though, of somebody who acts like that,
like erratic behavior scares me because I don't know what
you're gonna do.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
Neg I know what you're finna do. Hand over that wallet.
Bet Remember that man? He remember that man that we
everybody in Houston knew he had.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
You know who I'm talking about, the one you went
on today with.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
Okay, he wasn't putting me out there like because it's
a lot of niggas with CT the one specific because
it's about thirty niggas who I'm talking about. I know
who you talking about. I just had to confirm because
it was about seven of you. That's what I'm saying
it's about seven of them. I not for show, but

(20:25):
I'm talking about like back in the day. Yeah, that
nigga and then his head was a show. He had
that thing was knocked. Whoa. You know he's been playing
sports since he was a tiny top bitch who he
had a nugget on him.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Jesus, that's all right.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
He used to be cutting up in the club. We'll
take that part out when I said, when I said, well,
but yes I do. And he had that thing on him.
I know it. I used to run it up on him.
I used to run it up on him. But I
mean all jokes aside could set isn't a joke. But
getting back to the financial niggas ain't got it no more.
You need to be the BDB. We don't talk about

(21:05):
bdb's no more because we became the bdb's And I
think that's important. You don't don't stunt your growth by
waiting on somebody. Uh I had you gonna be trying
to get child supports and you know what, I was
talking to a family member or intended family member the
other day, and it's a family member I really don't
talk to that much. And I was telling her, how

(21:26):
you know I bought a home and it's late. Everybody
knows I bought it. I mean, that's my personality trait.
Now I don't give a fuck cause I made it.
But she was like, why did you get a house?
You need to wait till you have a man. Who huh?
Why why? Because guess what. The more money you make

(21:47):
is investments. Me getting a man. That ain't gonna stop
me because we can get something else together. I'm gonna
rent this bitch out. Stop waiting on people to do
things that you want to do. And I know the
things that we used to talk about on Poor Minds,
but we ain't talking about it now. You know what
I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (22:01):
I have I say this all the time in real
life and I can't remember if I said it on
the show before. But again, smart people change their minds
all the time. Like nobody can't ever make me feel
bad about changing my mind about a lot of things,
or saying, oh, y'all be contradicting y'all sills because y'all
used to say these five years ago, or y'all used
to say these four years ago. Beat you am I

(22:22):
the same person I was five years ago. No, have
I grown and evolved, absolutely, and I've changed my fucking
mind about a lot of time.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
Jeesh, mom, mind.

Speaker 3 (22:34):
Okay, but no, for real, Like I think, if you're
intelligent and you're constantly growing and evolving as a person,
you're always changing your mind. So it's okay to not
be on the same shit you was on four or
five years ago.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
People like that are actually like terrifying.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
You still think the same that you thought when you
was twenty seven twenty eight years old. Where's the growth?
Where's the accountability? Agree, where's the responsibility? So I feel like, yeah,
we definitely used to talk about a lot of shit,
and the tone of the show used to be a
little different when we were younger, especially in respect.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
To dating and stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
But like we've grown a lot as people, we've grown
a lot as.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
Business with me and we bost these now.

Speaker 3 (23:15):
So yeah, it's like I look at dating from a
whole different perspective than I used to look at it
when I was like talking to dudes because oh I
knew that you had money, Like now I don't give
them because you're gonna have the money regardless, But do
I like you?

Speaker 1 (23:29):
Right? That's what mattered? Speak do? I like you? Are
you a good person? Cause aren't you a good person?
You don't have the money today need? But that shit
don't matter for real, But for real.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
I hate when people say that, Like I think it's
so annoying because I see that a lot about us
and like other you know, influencers and media personalities online
people are always like, oh, well, you be contradicting yourself,
for that's not what she was saying two years ago.

Speaker 1 (24:01):
Beat it was two years ago. Let it go.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
I'm a different person than I was last week. I
started your.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
I do qu I do? That's why it takes one
of no one. Hey, I'm saying I have ct no
because I said I can eyeball work and let me
switch topics real quick. Y'all know I'm a scroller on

(24:31):
TikTok and I saw canceled podcasts did their last episode.
I know you're probably not familiar with them. Uh, Tanna,
I don't know how to say her last name. Mong you.
I hope I said it right. And Brooke Schofield it's
two of our sisters and they've had a podcast for
a really long time and they finally ended it.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
Now mind you.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
I have spoke out against them a few times just
because Brooks was They both said a lot of like
stuff that's like, hold on now, a little racy, you know.
I don't like to call people racist, but it was
just like day. But outside of that, I love to
call people racist if they were, and I won't necessarily

(25:16):
say that, but outside of that, I was watching a
clip from their final episode because I used to listen
to their podcast, like long long time ago, when I
used to actually indulge when I was doing more like
research and stuff. I don't really listen to podcasts now.
But I was watching a clip of their episode and
it made me so fucking sad because it made me

(25:37):
sad because I was like, oh my gosh, like everything
comes to an end, but they ended it good, like
when they were at their peak. But I'm like, oh
my gosh, what is that gonna be? Like knock on
wood when we do our last episode? But I like
the fact that they did it on their terms. What
was the reason? Though I'm not gonna lie, the last
year has been really rough for them. They've gotten a
lot of hate they've got, But honestly, what I took

(25:59):
from it cause I haven't listened in a long time.
What I took from it is that they just wanted
to move on to different things. I think Tanna is
moving to she has a house in la I think
she's moving to Hawaii, if I'm not mistaken. And I
think they just they're ready for the next chapter. And
they're young, they're younger, they're younger than us, and you know,
things are different for our sisters. And she's been popular

(26:22):
on YouTube for like years. But it was just like,
oh my gosh. But I think they did it the
right way because I think they saw things kind of
going left and like, you know what, let's end on
the hall horse, you know what I'm saying. But it
was just like, oh my gosh, one day we're gonna
have our last episode, cause it's gonna be like, hey,
it's time to move on. And it was like, oh

(26:43):
my god. It made me really like I started getting emotional.
Cloth what am I gonna do if I'm not sitting
on this couch with you?

Speaker 3 (26:51):
Yeah, But I guess I just always that's true, that's true.
But I think I look at things from a perspective
of when something ends, something better always comes. Oh my gosh,
just making me sad.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
So nothing.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
I know, I know, but it like nothing ever really
ends for real, you know, like it's just always something
else coming. I think I have to even with us,
like with poor Mind's Like when poor minds ends, it's
gonna be because we're doing something.

Speaker 1 (27:27):
Of course way bigger, So.

Speaker 3 (27:30):
It is gonna be sad, and I'm sure we're both
gonna cry like Todd.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
So we're all gonna be up here, Oh my god,
but it's gonna be like.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
We're all gonna be up in this bitch crime. It
is gonna be years from now. But yeah, like I
think when that does happen, it's going to be because
the natural progression of things is this next big thing,
Like we're bigger than the podcast now right now, right,
I'm gonna we're bigger than the podcast now. It's probably
gonna be like a television production or it's going to

(28:00):
be something much bigger than these are, bigger than we
could even fathom. So I think you have to look
at the ending of things in that way.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
Yeah, you know, but I realized too.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
I think like when we like buy our like forever home,
not in a case for them, No, Yeah, I have
to I think I gotta be in your neighborhood. All
we get our dream houses. Yeah, I can't. I don't
like I mean honestly with me moving like it's cool
you hate, yeah, because I like just knowing that you're
right there. In case I don't like. I do love

(28:33):
where I live.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
I love my home.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
My home is gorgeous. By the way, y'all, I changed
my lighting in my house. It's so ty. But anyways,
I haven't been sorry, Cybor. I haven't been taking shots
like for the past few weeks. I just been I
really am trying to stop.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Drinking hard liquor like that and mostly just drink like
champagne and wine. But I was like, fuck it, it's
our last episode of the day. I want take a shot.
Is she strongest?

Speaker 1 (29:01):
It's good though, But back to you with your beautiful home.
I'm sorry. My home is beautiful, and can I just
my bathroom is so big that when I take a shower,
my mirrors don't fall up. I realized that this morning
I get out and I can look at I can
see myself. Yoh, okay. I love my home, but I
do not like not living next to you. Oh that's

(29:24):
gonna make me cry and no, I'm serious. No, But
I say that to say because like when the pod,
because I'm.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
Weird that you don't live next door anymore though, because
you know, I go on my walks every day for
the most part, and every time I walk past your building,
I'd be like, oh. But then I'd be like, don't
live there no more?

Speaker 1 (29:42):
Look it up my way. But no, the reason it
brought things into perspective for me. And I know we
get along with it about this, but I said, you
know what I said, whenever we retire, or whenever poor
Mind's ends, or whenever you buy or we buy or
whatever you buy, like dream home, because like right now,
I'm in my dream home, but it's not my forever home.

(30:04):
It's my dream home for right now. Whenever we are
in the space to buy a dream home, we gotta
be in the same neighborhood. Bro, it has to. I'm sorry,
I can't. I don't like it. I'm not saying we.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Gotta be next door.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
I got to I can be able to jog, take
a little walk, and I got to knock on your door.
Yeah that is. I feel like I'm cool with that.

Speaker 3 (30:25):
But the only problem with that is you'll be talking
about you want to retire and live in the country,
and that just that ain't eat for me.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
Boy, You're gonna have your vacation if somebody gonna be
your neighbor. An you don't want to respiyer in the
beautiful fields and have a farm and guardields. Garden farm
was cotton. I ate my basil. I grew some basil
and I ate it.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
And you can grow basil in the city, Army, Okay,
I don't want a farm.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
You you can have basil in the city. Okay, in
the city. You can have basil in the city. You
don't have to be on a farm from basil in
some time.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
But I want like a big garden.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
I want like a big because I want like I
want lemon trees. Avocado trees take years to go. But
I want like I don't want a regular garden. I
want like I need. I'm gonna need at least I'm
gonna need some acres. I'm gonna need some acres for
the type of garden I want. But I'm also gonna
have like a staff to help me with it, because
I'm gonna be I want to get to the point
to where I'm growing my food, and I gotta go

(31:37):
to a meat market because I keep pork on my fork.
I don't give a fuck what y'all say, but well,
I won't say nothing. Don't and don't. I never say nothing.
I just look at and you shouldn't.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
That's all right, though, that's all right.

Speaker 1 (31:53):
But I eventually want to get to the point to
like my vegetables, my fruits, my herbs are coming from
my garden, but everything that I eat is gonna take
a lot of space.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
Well, I feel like when I say the city, right, like,
I don't really necessarily mean living in the city because,
to be honest, like I feel like I'm gonna buy.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Something within the next six months to a year.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
I want to get an investment property yep, that I
can rent out, and then I also want to get
like my own home.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
I'm tired of living in the city. It'd be too
damn noise.

Speaker 3 (32:26):
That's how I know I've grown and evolved a lot
as a woman, because when I first moved to Atlanta, like,
I've been living in the city majority of the time, well,
the whole time I've been living here, Like I lived
in Atlantic Station first for a year and then for
the past seven eight years, I've been living in Midtown.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Money, I had to walk to the east side. Girl,
shut up.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
For real, Like, I've been living in Midtown for the
past eight years, and it's so noisy. It's so loud,
and it's so fucking noisy. Like it's always some soirens
going off. It's always some crackheads walking down the street.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
Yeah, but that's what they do. Somebody got shot.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
Somebody got shot like five six months ago, right across
the street from my house. And I live in like
a nice like I live in meantime like area. But yeah,
it's just it's city living. I feel like you just
never know what can happen, and I'm just over it,
Like I want something a little more peaceful quiet. So

(33:39):
I think where you live is a good medium. I
think like Alpharetta is a good medium. I feel like
Sandy Springs is a good medium. Alpharetta is kind of
far but I feel like what I like about it
is that they have the avalon over there and have
a lot of things to do, right, So it's like
it's a lot of things that you can still do
in that area to where you don't need to necessarily

(34:00):
come back into the CD all the time here where
our studio is. At this area, I feel like you
can't really do shit over here.

Speaker 2 (34:08):
Yes, city, you can go to Del tacover here.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
I was really about to say it's a food, doesn't exactly,
it's a desert, especially if you somebody who like prioritizes
clean eating and things like that.

Speaker 3 (34:21):
It's not as much access over here like that.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
So you need Dell Taco, isn't it. You just proved
our pointment. It's a taco, it's a Popeye's, it's a KFC.
That's somebody whenever we order call of that shit takes
like an hour to get here. And I will say, honestly,
I'm glad I did the High Ras living, but a
year was enough for me. I think that country girl

(34:45):
and me came out. I'm in the woods, I see greenery,
I see trees, it's quiet. My neighbor. My neighbor put
up is halloween stuff. And we were chatting, like, that's
why you're gonna put up Halloween.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
I am, now I don't.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
I'm gonna get some little stuff, but I'm too focused
on getting my house decorated, so I know next year,
I'm really gonna decorate, but I'm gonna get some little stuff.
But my funds is going to the house right now.
And I honestly I've been putting money towards my principal too.
I'm trying to pay this motherfuckerf like I did the calculations. Yeah,

(35:22):
this thing's gonna be mine in five years for show
for show. Well, we ain't even get in because we
never get ye. So before we do that, Ty will
be drinking today. Right.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
So, because we've been talking about elevation and Q four,
this one we're gonna call the Great lock in because
we all getting focused. We got to end this year
on a blast, on a great note with a blast,
and this one is different.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
So this one has some piasco. It's kind of like
a play on a piasco sour if you've ever had that.
If not, Pisco is a spirit and it's made in
South America. This one is from Chile, kind of like
if you take a shot of it, it's kind of
like a mix of vodka, rum and tequila kind of together.
But it has some pisco, it has some dragon fruit syrup,
it has some lime juice, and then I use an

(36:12):
egg white. So that's where you get that frothiness from
that little velvety texture in it. And then we have
some pink dragon fruit as the garnage, so very cute.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
I decorated the top of the cocktail as well. And
this is the great Lockey, y'all.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
This is good market. Yeah. Love motherfucker. Okay, first, let's
shout out taylor Port. Our family at taylor Port. Thank
you so much for usual sponsoring this episode.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
Do you have a por Yeah, shout out to taylor Port,
because one thing about it is tailor Port. Will I
be saying it's gonna make you Teleport because as y'all
can see, we a little tiptoe and let me think,
what is my poor decision for this week? I guess
we can go with the theme of like what the
everything we was just talking about, like still living in

(37:02):
the city.

Speaker 1 (37:03):
I hate it.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
It'd be so damn loud once he is tired, I'll
be having to put earplugs in when I go to sleep.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
I'll clear motherfuckers out. I'll clear them out. I appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (37:17):
I might have to take you up on it because
I beside.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
Child, I'll be over there, like, get me out of here.
My poor decision this week is not telling the motherfucker
where they had me fucked up at. Yeah, because you
know what, I think, like I had a situation in
the past, and I think he just thinks, like, you know,
we just went our separate ways. No, bitch, you traumatize

(37:43):
me and you're a bitch and we will never be cool.
And thank God, I am one of God's children and
I'm always on his side. But don't never think that
you have access to me and shit is cool, But
that's my because I should have told you you got
me fucked up. And I think a lot of times

(38:04):
I try to be like, oh, I'm the cool girl. Hey,
it's cool, I'm not hurt. Take the bigger, take the
high road. No. Sometimes sometimes no, you don't need to
take the high road. Sometimes you gotta let people know
you got me fucked up. You're actually a horrible person,
and I don't wish bad on you, but you were
a actual shitty person to me. So that's my poor

(38:27):
decision is not letting that motherfucker that know that he
had me fucked up because something had happened. I'm just like,
are you are you insane? Cutting off access.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
I feel like we all have been guilty of that
before because I been feeling the same way. Sometimes I
feel like I let people know where they got me
fucked up at. But then I because, like you said,
you know, you always want to be like.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Oh, you know, I'm cool.

Speaker 3 (38:56):
I'm over it, And I do get over it really easily,
to be honest, I really do. I don't really stay
mad at people for long periods of time about love.
But in doing that, I feel like that makes people
think that like shit all good or they all's forgiving,
and it's like, I remember that you had me fucked

(39:16):
up and I really should have completely denied access forever.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
But I let you back in. Yeah, because I'm overy.

Speaker 3 (39:23):
Yeah, But just because I'm over it, don't mean I
gotta let you back in.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (39:28):
I don't funk with you, Like I don't got to
prove to you that I'm cool. I don't got to
prove to you that like I don't care or like
it's not a big deal.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
It's fine if you think that I don't fuck with
you because I don't bitch. Yeah. Yeah, So what's short time?
I took a very high dose edible.

Speaker 3 (39:53):
I was out of there and I needed to get
a lot of stuff done.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Yeah that was on Monday. I woke up on Tuesday. Yeah,
y'all know, I saw a post that said smoking weed
a lot can cause schizophrenia. And they've done, like they've
ran tests on people and like a lot of people
who have schizophrenia at a young age, they are weed

(40:17):
smokers because it does something to the chemical balance in
your brain. It helps them, No, it takes it. Yeah, yeah,
like if you because like schizophrenia is something that's like
kind of I don't want to say in his genext
because that's not what he said, but he said a
lot of times it like either speeds it up, or
it triggers it, or it does something to like certain people.
But a lot of things that they've noticed and people

(40:37):
who have schizophrenia is that they smoke weed.

Speaker 3 (40:41):
I do be feeling like I'm in different dimensions sometimes
and I was in five different dimensions.

Speaker 1 (40:47):
Baby mm hmm. How don't be careful with that goanja weed.
That's why I say give me that rich, I don't
give me that booboo. You're not.

Speaker 3 (40:57):
Weed is something that I have to do like every
once in a while. Every once in a while, it's cool.
I can't do it all the time because I'm too
much of a person who like to be in control
of every game. And I think that when you smoke weed,
you don't have no control, Like you don't know when

(41:17):
the high gonna come down.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
You don't know how high you gonna get, like.

Speaker 3 (41:22):
You know, like I think even with liquor, I've been
drinking long enough to where I know, like, okay, this
amount of shots, it's gonna get you to where I.

Speaker 1 (41:30):
Need to be. This one might take me over there,
you know.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
I feel like with weed, you just really playing Russian roulette,
like you don't know. And then I'll try to cross fade.
I don't mind it. I'll drink and take an edible.
Usually I'm okay because I do a lower dose. But
that one, it just it wasn't the right one.

Speaker 1 (41:50):
Now, so I'm drunk and I could not keep my
eyes open. Bro, they felt like they were disconnected from that.
It's not disconnected.

Speaker 2 (41:59):
Okay, well those are our poor decisions.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
Shout out to port what's up, y'all?

Speaker 3 (42:04):
We are back again with another business spotlight, and today
we have.

Speaker 1 (42:08):
Kendri Or Strong, the founder of Rooted Revival. We have
heard here with us today on the college. Hey girl,
thanks for having me. Oh my gosh, we're so excited.
We are too. I'm super excited too. And I do
want to say because I feel like black women in
our hair, Yeah it is. It's a big thing. It
is a love story. Yes, it really is. And I

(42:30):
feel like, you know, growing up, you know, we permed
our hair. We did this, we did the big chop.
And so IM want to start from beginning. What made
you start rooted revival.

Speaker 5 (42:38):
Actually, I have been in the beauty industry for fifteen years, okay,
and I've led product innovation, marketing, commercialization.

Speaker 1 (42:46):
Oh wow.

Speaker 5 (42:47):
And around thirty seven, I was a c sweet executive
and I kind of had that burnout, you know, yeah,
did I climbed the corporate ladder, did all the things,
and I kind of want to just take a year
back and really buyd myself again.

Speaker 6 (43:02):
And I was ready to walk away from beauty altogether.

Speaker 5 (43:05):
But after taking some time off and really reconnecting with
my passion, I realized that there's a lot of opportunity
for products that really focused on breakage and specifically tightly
textured hair. A lot of times we talk about all
texture moisture is really the buzzword now, But the structure

(43:25):
of our hair is very different, and I think it
was the opportunity for us to really really focus on
what causes breakage and how can we really fix that
from the inside out. Myself, I was struggling with iron deficiency.
Oh so my strand was very fragile, very weak. It
broke very often, and a lot of medications caused that.

(43:46):
So I really wanted something that goes beyond moisture, that
we can really feel like we're doing something good and
treating our hair from the inside out.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
I'm so glad you said that because I deal with
that iron deficiency. That's why I'm ball here that that
makes sense now, So talk about your products and like
what you have that focuses on breakage and things.

Speaker 5 (44:04):
Yeah, so we have our cutical mending peptide shampoo, okay,
and we started with the cutal cool. The hair strain
itself has three layers. The outer layer is the cuticle.
That's really where you start to see the main difference
in textured hair and where porosity lives.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
So you're here.

Speaker 5 (44:22):
A lot of people say high perosity low proosity, which
really just means, you know, how close the cuticol scales
lay on top of each other kind of like a roof.
You know, if it has more gaps in it, you
probably have high perosity. If it's very compact that you
have a low prosity, and think about high perosoity hair

(44:44):
is the morsture comes in, but it also escapes very easily, right,
And so our product really focuses on that cutic cool layer.
You apply to product, it mends and fills in those
gaps and then also helped with the tangling and intensively
strengthen it with peptides, which is really a building block

(45:04):
of hair already, and so it goes in with plant
based pep ties to strengthen the hair at an extra
protective layer onto the hair to help reinforce the strand
and minimize the breakage. And we're clinically proven to minimize
breakage by sixty percent. Wow, we've done all the tests,
We tested all the people. So we had a testing
group of sixty women and we were able to get

(45:26):
the claim of being reducing brakish by sixty percent after
your first wash and actually making their hair stronger and
more resistant to help you go through your washday.

Speaker 3 (45:36):
Okay, right, I really wanted to ask you because having
high porosity hair is normal when you have like tighter
coiled hair, correct.

Speaker 5 (45:46):
Yes and no, So I would say when you have
tighter cold hair, it really doesn't.

Speaker 6 (45:52):
That really is not a determined of the process.

Speaker 5 (45:54):
Okay, so someone can have tightly coiled hair and that's
really just you know how often the hair bends, and
every times it bends is an opportunity for breakage. But
the actual porosity deals with the cuticle. And what we
do know is afro descendant hair has typically a higher
porosity point. So I would say your porosity is linked

(46:17):
to the type of treatments you do to your hair.
So if you do a lot of chemical treatments, whether
it's color or chemical straightening, heat can add and increase
the damage to the cutical layer and add to the porosity.
But afro descended hair is just naturally higher in porosity.
Most of the time it has less cutical scales, which

(46:40):
is nothing wrong with that, but we do want to
understand that, you know, using a product that say all texture,
that's great, and when you're using things for moreture, that's great.
But we know if we're knowing that our strand is
actually a little bit more fragile. We want to make
sure that we're using those bioactives like pelp ties, teens,

(47:00):
vitamins that can actually put the nutrients.

Speaker 1 (47:03):
Back into the hair.

Speaker 3 (47:04):
Okay, okay, And so what was your process like when
when you were formulating all of your products?

Speaker 1 (47:10):
Like is everything all natural?

Speaker 5 (47:13):
So yeah, we're a plant based so we use plant
based at divs and bioadtips. So I definitely love at
home remedy. You know, I'm a girlfriend the South, So
I love an aloe, you know, Grandma a.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
Little capstule on a South you know, I love that.

Speaker 5 (47:34):
Yes, But I'd like to say that we're clinical holistic,
and so the process for me is looking for ingredients
that are plant based that goes beyond some of our
topical treatments. And so what I typically do is write
a product brief. I work with biochemists and say, hey,
I want something that can really treat the cutical level level.

Speaker 1 (47:56):
What do we have?

Speaker 5 (47:58):
And then we'll say, okay, peptides up tides are smaller
than protein. They're actually the building block of protein, and
so they that's what proteins get their strengths from, right,
And so we'll talk about Okay, what type of plant
derived peptize exists and that has a high affinity with hair.
And that's what bioatdom means. It means that it's biologically

(48:20):
active with whatever host that is given to and in
this case, it's here. And so we're trying to find
plant based bioactive ingredients that can really restore the hair.
And that's typically the process I identify typically the problem
because most of the time, you know, when you have
a problem, you're not like what ingredient can I put

(48:43):
on my hair? You're just like, I need to solve
this problem, right, And so it's really working with chemists myself.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
We're at the table.

Speaker 5 (48:52):
We're discussing all the everything that we can do what
can really penetrate the hair, then taking that to the salon,
the tests area, testing the product, going to the clinical study.
Once we feel like we have a good product. That
can take roughly eight months of clinical study to make
sure that it's reducing breakage. If you have a claim

(49:15):
of growth, if you have a claim up and I'm
big on claims. Everything is not claim testing. But if
I tell you it's gonna work, I needed to work.
And so that process along. Once we finish clinical testing
and finally get to the commercialization stage where we're really
to put it in the bottle and do all the
fun stuff. That process for me took a year and
a half of testing, making sure we have the right products,

(49:38):
making sure that is like you said, plant to ride,
that is safe, none toxic, and you can really feel
good and safe about the products that you're put in
your hair.

Speaker 3 (49:46):
Okay, period, that's part of with the testing process, because
a year and a half that is a long that's a.

Speaker 6 (49:52):
Long That is a long time.

Speaker 5 (49:53):
Our formers are proprietary, and you know, in the beauty
energy in general, you know, owning your own formula is
a big deal. So going to you know, working with
the chemists and saying hey, this is what I want
to do. Of course they're gonna first give you, you know,
all the formulas that already exist, and you say, no,
I want to build one, you know, from ground up.

Speaker 6 (50:13):
You know that process.

Speaker 5 (50:14):
If you're doing it safe and you're doing it well,
and you're not doing it at home in your kitchen,
you say I really want to go to.

Speaker 6 (50:20):
A mass production.

Speaker 5 (50:21):
That process does take you know a long time to
get it right.

Speaker 1 (50:26):
So the argument I have seen online for years. Is
it's half the people saying, oh, your hair is just genetics.
It doesn't matter what products you use. Either you have
hair that's gonna grow and it's thick or not. And
then the other half is like, no, if you do
this to your hair, it'll get healthier, it'll grow longer.
So what's the truth.

Speaker 6 (50:46):
I think it's fifty to fifty.

Speaker 5 (50:48):
Okay, me personally, I think there is structural differences in
all that hair. We can all say that, you know,
we have eyes, you know we get them with the okabc,
we have eyes. There is a structural differ. But then
there is still the maintenance of the hair, right. I
think you know, consistency plays a big deal as well.
There are different ingredients that you can apply to actually

(51:10):
help the hair, and then there are things that you
know you're just genetically born, where if you have high
perosity hair, you have low perosity hair, then that's just
part of the hair structure. Once you identify the things
that are fragile about your hair, what's strong about your hair,
then you can come out with the customized regimen that
really helps with the hair health. So I personally think

(51:30):
it's fifty to fifty. I think, to me, the biggest
factor in haircare is consistency. You know, I'm gonna protect
a stylid girly myself. You know, sometimes on a good day,
you know, a good month, I went two weeks before
I washed my hair, you know, if that's what I
was about to ask you, Yes, sometimes I recommend, you know,
when I got back on my game, I'll do like

(51:52):
two to four weeks, never going more than the month. Okay,
but you know sometimes you know, you get a little lazy.
That wash they a little past dude. So I definitely
think you need to be more consistent. I think consistency
can really ending repetition. You know, having a good regiment,

(52:13):
just like skin can't skincare. I think of it as
the skinnification of hair. You know, do you have a
regimen for your skin care? Same thing. You know, you
wouldn't just apply oils to your skin and assume.

Speaker 1 (52:26):
That it will be okay.

Speaker 5 (52:27):
So you do want to have, you know, something that's
structurally healthy. You want to have a good seiling, a
good moisturizer, you want to have a good cleanser, and
just have that consistent regimen. I think that coupled with
knowing your hair intimately will help with overhall hair health.

Speaker 3 (52:45):
So could you talk, could you touch a little bit
more on that, because I know, especially in the black community,
like I'll always see girls that are like, oh, I
don't wash my hair for two moneys, three moneys, or
I'll just leave it braided up because I feel like leaving.

Speaker 1 (52:58):
It alone it will row.

Speaker 3 (53:00):
For what you're saying is you need to have a
consistent regime that you're doing.

Speaker 6 (53:04):
Yeah, I think, and you do exactly what you're saying.

Speaker 5 (53:08):
I always disclaimer, do what's best for you, Okay, all right,
do it what's best for you.

Speaker 6 (53:13):
And I paired that too as well, Like you know,
you know your hair if.

Speaker 5 (53:16):
You think you know going six months, I mean not
six month, but.

Speaker 1 (53:26):
Right they a different wing on top, but for real,
for real.

Speaker 5 (53:32):
But you know, if that's your jam, that's your jam.

Speaker 1 (53:35):
Okay. But I have.

Speaker 5 (53:38):
Seen just through different studies myself included, a healthy scalp
gives you a healthy foundation. It's not necessarily all ways
about the hair is the foundation. And so our product
is a deep cleansing treatment to really make sure that
you're clearing that build up off of the scalp, making

(53:58):
sure that you are actually get into the root of
the hair and giving room for your hair to breathe,
your scalp to breathe, for a healthy, healthy hair to
come out of follow Coole and I also say, I mean,
I don't know many things in this world that can
grow without water, right, Okay, So at some point I
think even a plan or something, you know, I think

(54:20):
you really want to get in the place of really
treating your hair, and that's gonna help with moisture retention
as well. So I would say, you know, never go
without go more than six weeks. If you're in a
protected style, try to stay within a month, and if
you can, if you're really good, be on that two
weeks you have tight test your hair. I have tightly

(54:42):
testured hair. Two weeks can be a little rough. If
you are not properly detangling the hair properly, you can
cause more breakage. So I would say, as long as
you're not going more than you know four to six weeks,
you know, giving yourself time to actually maintain ain't a regiment.

Speaker 1 (55:01):
I think that you're fine. Okay. I'm glad you said that,
because that's me. I'll be feeling like I leave my
hair braided up, and I'm like, oh, I know it's
finna be long. Then I take it out of it
all it'd be breaking off.

Speaker 3 (55:13):
But you know, the thing is that I learned over
the past few years, a lot of the time women
don't wash their hair while they still have the brazen. Like,
you still should wash it while you have the brazen.
You should still do protein treats off.

Speaker 1 (55:28):
Yeah, Now you.

Speaker 5 (55:31):
Get in there and make sure that you're really drying
it as well, you know what I mean, because you
don't have any mildew under there, all right, and it
be that build up at the roof and making people
hair break off.

Speaker 1 (55:41):
May I put that water on it and I with the bag.

Speaker 6 (55:43):
Yes, And you can use the sheffield.

Speaker 5 (55:45):
You can dilute it, you know, put it in a
applicator bottle, whatever your favorite product is. Of course, I'm
gonna say us for the revival, but I'm all about
using what's best for you. Dilute your shampool, put in
that applicator bottle, Go ahead and wash it while you're
in your so winds in your braids. Make sure you're
rented well and just you know, make sure you dry it.
You don't want to have meldew.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
Let me ask you what I want to know.

Speaker 1 (56:11):
What is your hair? What is your hair routine? Like
you said, we have a skincare route. Yes, what is
your because I'm looking at your.

Speaker 6 (56:17):
Hair, yes, gorgeous?

Speaker 1 (56:18):
Yes, So what what do you do? Like It's a
Sunday and you're doing your hair look like.

Speaker 5 (56:24):
So I really try to start with the deep cleansing treatment.
I start with our pelp tip mining cutical mending pelptalk shampoo.

Speaker 6 (56:33):
Our our product is a entangler as well.

Speaker 5 (56:37):
So I go in on wamp excuse me, on dry
or missed, damped hair, and I apply to product and
I entangle first.

Speaker 6 (56:46):
Okay, And so I first actually.

Speaker 5 (56:47):
Start entangling my hair prior to getting into the shower
wherever you're washing your hair, to make sure that you're
removed any knots and making sure you're not entangling on
very wet hair because that's when your hair is the
most fragile and more more prone to break.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
Okay, got it.

Speaker 5 (57:05):
And once I go through my shampoo routine and I
rent that out, then I go in with the conditioner
and sometimes I do a double so if I have
a lot of build up and I'm wearing a lot
of gels.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
I'll do two washes.

Speaker 5 (57:16):
Once I finish shampooing, I'll go into with the conditioner.
I like to use a conditioner that has a less
heavy that can actually absorb into the hair. I try
to leave it on from ten to fifteen minutes. A
lot of times people try to leave it on overnight
and things like that. Yeah, you feel like it's doing
more conditioning, but honestly, it's the zorbed typically at the

(57:39):
most thirty minutes. So you know, you you don't necessarily
have to go overnight or hour, but if you feel good,
you can do that too.

Speaker 1 (57:49):
So I'm so glad that you said that's what I'm saying.
I'm doing something. I'm like, oh, I'm not going to
go with that grocery band.

Speaker 5 (57:58):
But a lot of times I say, your hair is
most fragile when it's wet, right, and so a lot
of times you think that it's it may be doing
more harm than good because the followup the hair can
actually get too much moisture within it right and then
cause a little bit more breakage, especially when you're going
to the tangle. So I try to get a conditioner

(58:19):
that's a little bit more lightweight, that can be absorbed
into the hair. Trying to find something that does have
bioact is, whether it's a vitamin or some type of
peptide treatment to actually be absorbed into the hair, and
then I move in.

Speaker 1 (58:33):
It depends that if I'm gonna do a.

Speaker 5 (58:34):
Blowout, you know, I'll go in with the light leaving
and then I'll go in with the heat protectant to
blow it out, and then you know, I go straight
down into my breakdown after that. So I try to
keep my hair and scalp as clean as possible. If
I do like a twist out or something of that nature,
I try to make sure that I and I'm using

(58:55):
a heavy butter and a ceiling or an oil or
something that nature. I try to make sure that, you know,
I do the proper routine, but I'm going back to
wash my hair.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
That's when I wash my hair within.

Speaker 5 (59:07):
Like two weeks or so, because those butters and those
oils dripped down to the scalping cause a lot of
build up.

Speaker 3 (59:14):
So you were talking about the importance of the different
conditioners that you use and leaving them on for a
certain period of time. So I want to really talk
about the new conditioners that you have all for black products.

Speaker 5 (59:26):
I do so, like I said, it takes like two
years for me to get a good treatment, you know,
something that's working. So we finally finished and we Bata
lunched that shampoo in July. We are doing well and
the conditioners falling and right behind it our conditioner as well.

Speaker 1 (59:41):
It had.

Speaker 5 (59:42):
It is made with what we call cationic conditioning. That's
a fancy word for saying that it actually smooths the
cuticle down the zords quickly into the hair and it's
going to really feel your make the slip in the
softness of your hair improved, as well as the smoothness
of the strand okay, and zorb quickly and then wash

(01:00:02):
it off quickly.

Speaker 1 (01:00:03):
Because we're busy.

Speaker 5 (01:00:04):
Women, right, we don't have all day, so I wanted
something that's gonna give me all the pack impact of
the thirty minutes, but with less time. So I'm excited
about lunching the conditioner on Black Friday and we'll have
a wonderful Black Friday.

Speaker 1 (01:00:19):
So you buy two.

Speaker 5 (01:00:20):
Shampools to get a conditioner for free, you don't gonna.
I'm gonna let you test it out, you know, because
I'm more I'm passionate about what Eric could say.

Speaker 1 (01:00:29):
I'm passionate about my about my shoes.

Speaker 5 (01:00:31):
Yeah, okay, I tell you yeah, and so yeah, I'm
very excited.

Speaker 2 (01:00:37):
So let me clarify what you said, because I'm taking notes.

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
We're not supposed to de tangle our hair when it's
soaking wet, because I entangle in the shower now.

Speaker 5 (01:00:46):
I prefer not to. And I would say that's when
your hair is the most fragile. Way till your hair
is soaking wet, you're probably gonna have a lot more breakage. Okay,
if you do it in a damp state or a
lot of people would do it. We'll say, use a
pre shampoo.

Speaker 1 (01:01:04):
Okay, do it.

Speaker 5 (01:01:06):
Our product act as a pre shampoo. So essentially you
applied the product, you de tangle the hair, then you
get at water, it turns, it transforms into a lather, okay,
and then you rinse it out.

Speaker 6 (01:01:20):
So you get a two for one with the product.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
Got you. And when we're using the revival, how many
times do we need when we see some results? Because
I need some results today. I'm finna go home and
wash my hair right now. Girl. It's breaking office with speed.
So like if somebody is using this probably like and
they have serious passage. How long do they start seeing
some results?

Speaker 5 (01:01:41):
Actually, you get sixty percent less breakage after your first
use because it.

Speaker 6 (01:01:47):
Is a like I say, is.

Speaker 5 (01:01:50):
A porosity filler, right, and cutical mender. So what it's
doing is immediately strengthening and adding that to their hair
to reinforce the strain and make it more resilient as
you are going through your process.

Speaker 1 (01:02:05):
Okay, right, and so over average.

Speaker 5 (01:02:07):
Older fifty women that we did clinical studies, we saw
the sixty percent less breakage after first use. With continuous use,
that's when I see the best benefit. Like I said,
I surfer with iron deficiency and my hair was breaking
and very brittle, and I was able to attain length.
I like to say, we don't make a growth plan.
We can't you do anything about that, but we can

(01:02:28):
help you keep the hair that you grow. I would say,
over you know, a six month period, you can really
see a difference with the hair with continuous use in
that consistency that I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 (01:02:39):
I like that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:40):
Yes, Now, what would you say is the biggest misconception
that you hear all the time about textured hair and
hair breakage?

Speaker 5 (01:02:48):
I think the biggest misconception is that is strong and
very resilient.

Speaker 6 (01:02:52):
You know, a lot of people say, I got that
strong hand.

Speaker 5 (01:02:54):
Yeah, But the truth is that it's actually very fragile
because every bend, if you have very very curly hair
or curly hair in general, every times it bends, it
is a weak spot, right, and opportunity for it to
break structurally.

Speaker 6 (01:03:10):
And then also the porosity of the hair makes.

Speaker 1 (01:03:12):
It very fragile.

Speaker 5 (01:03:13):
And I think if we take that and account the
way we entangle, the way we do our styles, how
much tension we apply to our hair, it really changed
how we approach the styling of textured hair and really
change the health outcome of our hair in general. So
I would say, you know, think of it as being
more fragile than being strong course and resilient.

Speaker 3 (01:03:38):
Yeah, because I do feel like people say that all
the time, Like a lot of black women and black
people in general.

Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
We always like, oh, our hair is so strong.

Speaker 3 (01:03:45):
But like you said, I learned that years ago too,
that it's actually the weakiest. Yes, like coily hair and
cruly hair is the weakest type of hair.

Speaker 1 (01:03:52):
Yes, to have you I know, ma shat week now,
now let me ask this for my lot of color
systems that do watch.

Speaker 2 (01:04:01):
Is this for you know other thing?

Speaker 5 (01:04:03):
Yes, it is, it is, and I do want to
say that because porosity. Of course, you can have a
natural high porosity, but like I said, with chemical treatments,
it can actually increase and cause a higher or a
damaged perosity in the hair. So every time you use color,
every time you use you know, a chemical straightener using

(01:04:23):
a lot of heat, you know, you start to see
the hair break down, It becomes weak, it starts breaking.
Anyone can use the product if you feel that you
have damage or breakage prone hair, you feel like your
strand is a little bit more fragile, it is great
for that. Of course I started where breakage begins, typically

(01:04:44):
in higher porosity, and because of that it led me
to tighter textures. But of course as you move through
your process, your prosody will increase over time, it can
become more damage. And anyone that feels that that hair,
their hair is fragile or they feel like it needs
a little be more strengthening, it's a great.

Speaker 1 (01:05:01):
Product for it. Okay, I like that because my best
friend from high school, she colors her hair so much.
Shit be breaking off you bomb. Oh, so let people
know where they can find Root of Revival and let
the poor crewno like how we can tap in early
for that conditioner.

Speaker 5 (01:05:17):
Yes, yes, So you can find us at Rooted Revival
with two L's dot com. And you can also please
follow me on Instagram and all the social media platforms.
Like I said, we just launched in July, even though
I've been at this.

Speaker 1 (01:05:32):
For two years. I need the following, y'all.

Speaker 5 (01:05:34):
And it's the same rude of Revival Revival with two L's.
And then you can tap in if you go to
our website. We'll have an early sign up list where
you can sign up and we'll text you on Black.

Speaker 6 (01:05:46):
Friday to get early access to the deal.

Speaker 1 (01:05:49):
Okay, yay. And I feel like I'm like, I have
to say this, my girl, she's ripping the brain because
I just noticed. I'm like you mentioned, I was like, Okay,
I love it. I didn't. It looks so good. I'm
I'm a moody color girly, so I love the packaging
because I'm not gonna lie. I'm that girl that when

(01:06:11):
I go shopping I look at packaging first. So it's
like something can have a great product, but it's not
package that's a bullshit product.

Speaker 2 (01:06:18):
But they got a package prettier and I'm gonna grab that.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
When I would really grab this, like if I'm walking
through me, but I would definitely it would catch my eyes. Yes, well,
thank you so much.

Speaker 5 (01:06:28):
It's a little different because we don't have a pump
or a dispenser, but like I said, I typically pour
it in because you're pred tangling first.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
So what made you want to go with that design
instead of like the typical pump or dispens.

Speaker 5 (01:06:41):
It Well, me personally, and most people when they use
a pump after a while, you just throw it out
away anyway, right, Okay, So I was like, nah, I'm
gonna get away from that dispenser because you're pred tangling first.

Speaker 1 (01:06:54):
You want to pour it in.

Speaker 5 (01:06:55):
You want to use a lot of products to actually
detang to tangle entangle the hair, so it's actually easier
application to do. So many people prefer pump. So we
are considering maybe going to a.

Speaker 1 (01:07:08):
Tube next year.

Speaker 5 (01:07:09):
But it was originally designed to mimic more of a
vitamin bottle. It made the consumer think more of nutrients
vitility when you and really to set us apart and
trying to find packaging that's coming but also very different
in the haircare space, and that's how we kind of
got to that, and trying to use a logo promenade

(01:07:31):
on the front where it's recognized and put in the
actual name of the product on the back, just some
visual cues to know that, Okay, this is different, Yes
this is not my typical, just so the consumer can
see something different and think something different.

Speaker 1 (01:07:49):
I like it.

Speaker 3 (01:07:50):
I love it, and I feel like maybe instead of
the tube, maybe you know how some people they'll put
like the pump on the side, so it can still
be like this, but then you just have the pump
on the side. I can make sure if people want
to put it on there, then they can.

Speaker 5 (01:08:02):
But I actually was thinking about that because I've been
challenged on that. Everybody's like, you need to go to
the well, not every not the consumers, but you know,
my team.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
But I was like, you know, this is what.

Speaker 5 (01:08:13):
I originally did, So I have been thinking about just
putting the pump on the side.

Speaker 3 (01:08:16):
For yeah, I like it, because that way you could
keep the esthetics that you want to go with your brand,
but then also give the people who like, oh no,
I need a pump.

Speaker 1 (01:08:25):
Put it on the side, because that's why I say,
you know, I like to add that water at the
end of shake it up. And let me just give
your flowers being a black woman in the beauty industry
and you know, taking the time and thinking about us
who you know have tighter, curlyer hair, and you know,
thinking about us and giving us products for us. So
thank you so much. We appreciate y'all.

Speaker 3 (01:08:47):
And I always trust the black woman when it comes
to black hair.

Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
Especially when they got nice hair. If you can't gonna
hear ball he hold on hair is black. You So
thank you, Thank you so much for coming and joining
us today. Y'all. Make sure y'all check out Rooted Revival.

Speaker 2 (01:09:35):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:09:36):
Then yeah, I would definitely have a problem with that.

Speaker 3 (01:09:38):
She oh, sure, But like if he fucked with her
before we met or before we got together, like no,
I wouldn't care.

Speaker 1 (01:09:49):
And like if he just.

Speaker 3 (01:09:50):
Had a crush that he liked, like somebody that he
was like, oh, I think she's.

Speaker 1 (01:09:53):
So fine, Like I wouldn't care as long as she fine.

Speaker 3 (01:09:58):
For real, she gotta be fine though, fucking like be like, okay,
I see, I.

Speaker 1 (01:10:02):
See, I don't mind. Like like a guy like for example,
he was like Meg, Oh, I love Meg. I said,
I get it, I love Megtal you know what I'm saying.
But this is when celebrity crushes get weird for me.
I got ate up on Facebook the other day for this.
Y'all know I'm a facebooker, now, I said, I get,

(01:10:23):
you know, loving celebrities and being a fan. But y'all
doing too much with these AI pictures. Once you get
to the point where you typing it in on AI,
make me kiss Chris Brown, put me in a picture
with tarajip Hey.

Speaker 2 (01:10:37):
This is not what AI was made for.

Speaker 1 (01:10:40):
I'm sorry if you have ever made an AI picture
with you and a celebrity if you're taking it too far,
and peoples in the comments like, well, Lex, not everybody
gets to meet people like you on an everyday basis,
or I'm not paying a thousand dollars for a meet
and greet, And I'm like, I get that, I understand,
but what does that do for you? It's not a
real picture, and I think that's where lines get crossed.

(01:11:03):
And the reason I brought it up is because that
happened to Keeglock the other day. Somebody posted a picture
and was like him with Keylock, and he was like,
what the fuck? Cause it looked real and like they
were hugged up in the picture. That's scary exactly. It's
scary and it's weird. Y'all could get people in some shit.
It's just a lot. Yeah, So I think, like, I

(01:11:23):
don't care if you have a celebrity crush, just don't
get weird with it. Like if my man has a
crush on Meghan A Stallion, he not feinna be like,
damn you see Meg Dayton Clay, Hey are you okay?
But I do, And that's what I was gonna say.

Speaker 3 (01:11:39):
I feel like it gets to a point thought with
some people where it's a little obsessive. Like we were
talking to Jessica the other day, Yes, yeah, and she
was basically saying that, like, you know, it was this
lady who had put that she thought that she was
gonna marry Chris Brown in her wedding vows Like as
she's reading her vowels to her husband, You're like, you know,

(01:12:00):
I know it's you, but I thought I was gonna
marry Chris Brown. Okay, it gets to a point where, bitch,
you're weird. That's weird.

Speaker 1 (01:12:08):
It's weird.

Speaker 3 (01:12:08):
And then it does get to a point to where
we some people are too old, Like you're too old when.

Speaker 1 (01:12:14):
You ain't your teen years, your early twenties.

Speaker 3 (01:12:18):
I understand having like a big celebrity court a big
celebrity crush.

Speaker 1 (01:12:23):
That coltcha, bit queefit for that cuss.

Speaker 3 (01:12:26):
I know what you mean, honestly, having a big celebrity crush,
But like when you well into your thirties, y'all, forty,
your fifties and up, and you still have a crush
on a celebrity, it's a little weird because when do
we let go of the delusion, Bitch.

Speaker 1 (01:12:41):
You ain't happy, it's not gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (01:12:46):
Chris Brown is not about to come swoop you up
and save you at forty two? Is your man, especially
as a married woman, like, especially if you're a married
woman too, Like it's like, when does he get disrespectful
to your partner into your spouse as well? Because I
don't know how I would feel about that if I'm

(01:13:07):
married to somebody and you always constantly talk about how
you got a crush on this celebrity.

Speaker 1 (01:13:12):
Beach but I'm your wife? Yeah? Am I not good enough?
It was supposed to love me, Curtis, y'all, y'all, but
you liking but you liking somebody and thinking they're attractive.
I don't give a fuck about that.

Speaker 3 (01:13:26):
But it gets weird when it's like, oh, yeah, you know,
that's my wife and I love her down and if
I ever get.

Speaker 1 (01:13:32):
A chance, well, if you ever get a chance with her?
What nigga? Yeah, I've seen a post again, y'all know
I love to talk about TikTok. This girl made a
video and she was like, y'all, I made a TikTok video,
like I'm a Chris Brown stand. I've been to like
three of the Breezy Bowls and she said when I
came home, I guess his girlfriend's name is like Jade

(01:13:54):
or something. She said, I don't like how Jade is
everywhere with him. Every time I see him, she's right there.
And I was just like, you know, I'll admit I
was just being a hater. I was just being a hater.
And people were in the comments were like, hey, you
need to delete this because if he sees this, he's
gonna block you. And so she was like, y'all, why
did Chris block me? Because you are you've created a

(01:14:16):
pair of social relationship, whether you were joking or not,
to get on the internet and be like, why is
she always there? Y'all don't know what these celebrities and
what these people have to go through. So maybe she
makes him feel grounded. She makes him feel, you know,
he can unwand you don't know why. If you were
a real supporter, you would be happy that he has
somebody that he's happy with. Right. But she made a whole,

(01:14:38):
like two minute video because when I get ready, I
like to, you know, stay updated with what the kids
are doing on TikTok. It was like a whole two
minute video and she really was not processing why he
blocked her.

Speaker 3 (01:14:51):
And speaking of Chris Brown, I went to the Chris
Brown concert out here in Atlanta in the amount of
forty five plus. When I mean that, I've seen at
the concert with breezy bowl hoodies and spray painted T
shirts own and said, wifey mood.

Speaker 1 (01:15:09):
Listen, I was shug. I did a party with Nick
from Love Island. Yeah, don't. I did not get into
Love Island. I know nothing.

Speaker 3 (01:15:18):
I only did it because Crown we were sponsoring a party.
There were to your point, forty five fifty year old
women I'm talking stands, Oh my god, shirts flags, They
did a meet and greet and everything, and they were
I've never seen fandom like that for.

Speaker 1 (01:15:33):
A reality TV star. That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:15:39):
I definitely think it's something that you should grow out
of after a certain point, like at forty five.

Speaker 1 (01:15:45):
I just even in y'all thirty.

Speaker 3 (01:15:47):
Sometimes it eats a little weird when people be like obsessed,
you know, because.

Speaker 1 (01:15:54):
Could it happen? Possibly? No, but the I mean but
it could though.

Speaker 3 (01:15:59):
I mean, strange things happen all the time time. It
really do strange things be happening, and so I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:16:06):
Could it happen? But the maybe? But the likelihood of
it happening, Mitch probably night, so like let it go.

Speaker 2 (01:16:18):
I was trying to google this documentary I just watched.

Speaker 1 (01:16:20):
Wait, y'all. It's called thirst Trap, The Fame, The Fantasy,
The Fallout. It's about a TikTok star. His name is
William White. This boy is like in his early twenties.
When I tell you it was William White, William White,
I've never heard of this guy. I just I like
to sit on my couch and just watch random documentaries,

(01:16:41):
and it just came up. It was like older women
I'm talking about in their fifties and sixties thirst thing.
All he was doing was like lip syncing and stuff,
but he was lip syncing to older songs. And when
I listened to him speak, it was like listening to
a twelve year old.

Speaker 2 (01:17:00):
And it was so weird.

Speaker 1 (01:17:02):
That these women in their forties and fifties were upset.
It was kind of scary cause it's like a lot
of times we, you know, we just overlook it because
we think it's innocent, but a lot of times it's not.
And that line gets really really gray. That's why I
don't do all that thirst track. I don't do that stuff.
No more. I post pretty pictures and I go because
people will create a whole fantasy with you, and you

(01:17:25):
think it's cute until it's not. And then when I
watched him speak, I'm like, are y'all for real married women?
I mean it was w It was one woman who
actually lost her husband over it because she was obsessing
over this boy on tiktop. So I absolutely think that, yes,
you can be too old for celebrity crushes. I support

(01:17:48):
people and I like them, Like, yeah, I'm gonna like
a little look at a little a little tyler LEPLI
I like.

Speaker 2 (01:17:54):
Look, i'm'a look at a little injuries.

Speaker 1 (01:17:57):
I'm go'a look at damnsing. I'm gonna look at them.
But to be like, oh my god, you need.

Speaker 3 (01:18:02):
It, it's like it brings me back to like it
bring me back to when we were like in elementary
school and middle school and everybody used to have like
the word magazine photos all over the walls. But mind you,
bitch you, we're in middle school.

Speaker 1 (01:18:16):
Hey, it's appropriate.

Speaker 3 (01:18:18):
I feel like people like that be really having shrines
of celebrities in their homes at fifty years old. And
that's concerning, concerning as fuck it's scary. Those are the
type of people that you need to like watch out
for coming to your shows, and like you just never know.

Speaker 1 (01:18:33):
Like it makes so much.

Speaker 3 (01:18:34):
Sense why when you reach a certain level you have
to have certain security precautions because you just never know.

Speaker 1 (01:18:41):
Like even Yo, le Yon almost took that hell offen
beat his ass.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
That man ran up on stage.

Speaker 3 (01:18:50):
I was trying to dance with No, I was thinking
about that lady.

Speaker 1 (01:18:57):
I was thinking about that lady from the Poor Mine show.
And then you better be careful. You better hush. She's
probably watching, so I'm gonna see her roll up all
right now. I am. She gonna beat your She gonna

(01:19:18):
beat y'all. Oh God, she gotta get through you first,
she do, because bitch, you gotta be fucked up. That's
what I'm gonna do, neo style, bitch, do you much
the funk up that way real quickly?

Speaker 3 (01:19:38):
Y'all feel like me and be having celebrity crusties because
I feel like niggas be having celebrity Christian Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
That's what I was just saying.

Speaker 2 (01:19:44):
Like I've talked to like a god's day before.

Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
Like he was like yeah, like like Meg is my
tight No, I mean, my bad male celebrity crusties me
and be having male delivery and crushies. Yes, absolutely, like
I ha mean this post niggas love future. Yeah I
was not processing. Yeah yeah dog like you didn't. That's

(01:20:10):
that nigga. That nigga so one on one, he the goat.
They do that about him, ghannam. I like that they
do though they have man crushes on. Let me tell
you the male celarties that future huh Ghana, Denzel Washington,
Denzel Lebron. Definitely they do not play about a rest

(01:20:33):
in peace Kobe Bryant in Tupac. Oh my god, I don't.
I mean, I think they like but I'm talking about that,
like I swear it be niggas out here, Like if
they could massage Lebron's feet after a long game, they
feel like Savannah can't do it like me, Bro, I'm
telling you them Lebron, oh my god, especially athletes, they

(01:20:59):
be having a we them. Oh they love it and
don't let it be like a cool asd like Lebron
is a cool nigga, like he do lame shit, but
we all do you know what I'm saying, Like he
don't be.

Speaker 2 (01:21:08):
Knowing the words of the songs.

Speaker 1 (01:21:09):
Who cares?

Speaker 2 (01:21:10):
But Lebron is like a cool like he did it right. Yeah,
you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:21:14):
Like the stuff that we be like, oh Lebron, you
lame for is funny shit like not knowing the lyrics
and stuff. It ain't nothing serious. He a cool nigga,
So don't let it be a nigga who got money.
He got the wife, he got the kids, he got
the money, and he fucking called as fuck. They'll be like, hey,
I'll suck you dig it ain't gay. I just like you.
I fuck with you. Bro, let me suck them balls.
Oh my god, that's gay.

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
But I'm saying it.

Speaker 1 (01:21:38):
Don't get no gay.

Speaker 2 (01:21:39):
But I'm saying that's the type of time they be on.

Speaker 1 (01:21:41):
What about jay Z? Yeah, Oh, niggas like niggas love
jas Man man. When I've seen j perform, Bro, he
spoke to my heart and he's so he articulated so well.

Speaker 3 (01:21:52):
Bro, they be like, I feel like he be speaking
my life.

Speaker 1 (01:21:55):
Story, jay Z. He ain't. He never speaking your life story.
Calm down, that's correct. Nipsy too. Yeah, that's another one.

Speaker 3 (01:22:07):
Us La No for real, like niggas love niggas, and
I feel like that's where it gets to a point
where it's like borderline christ Yeah, because it's okay to
admire what somebody has done and the work that they've done,
and you know, the success that they have a mask

(01:22:29):
and stuff over the years. But like I be getting
to a point where it be a little like you
want to suck his nig dug a little bit?

Speaker 1 (01:22:37):
Tell the truth? Oh my god. But I will say
I think on the other side, because we got to
talk about the women too. A lot of times women
have parasocial relationships with women, Like the way y'all can
agree or disagree with Cardi for getting pregnant. Whatever, that's
not your friend. That's not your sister. You do not

(01:22:58):
know this lady. Why do you care so much that
she's pregnant. Yeah, you cannot care that. The long dissertations
and this is like you do not you.

Speaker 2 (01:23:07):
Don't care that much.

Speaker 1 (01:23:08):
Yeah, that's not your friend. Like it lines get crossed
where y'all just feel like things affect you and it don't.
I mean, you can have an opinion about something, but relax,
that's not your friend. That's not your girlfriend. You ain't
finna eat a koochie, none of that. So now it's
time to get into the bed bowl. The bed A

(01:23:30):
bow A bow bow, So y'all, today's the bed topic
is sponsored by her Fantasy Box. Y'all, when I tell you,
I love her Fantasy Boxes. They have so many products

(01:24:10):
it on this Yagi world, right, it ain't.

Speaker 2 (01:24:12):

Drey exactly. So shout out to her Fantasy Box what

a plethora of their products. I love the pH borckwise.
I also love the chlorophyll pills.

that you can also get all of the benefits of
the chlorophyll. But in peel forms, all you gotta do
is take it in the morning, and yeah, it's gonna
help you with your pH. It's also gonna help with
like managing like body odor.

Speaker 1 (01:24:44):
That's what I love about chlorofils.

Speaker 2 (01:24:48):
Be thinking.

Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
People need to realize that it's a lot of things
that stink. But with that was funny how you said
that it will be a lot of things that think,
some not fall.

Speaker 3 (01:25:02):
But for the people who are having issues with those
type of things, chlorophyll is really good for you because
I feel like it we'll get rid of the odor
anywhere on your body.

Speaker 1 (01:25:13):
So your pool and I've been saying for a long
your poop, what I said, your boots, Yeah that too.

Speaker 3 (01:25:22):
Your poots and your poop won't sink. You won't be musty,
your breath won't sink. We encountered a funky breadth person
recently and it was very tramatic. Y'all, see how licks
over there, she's about to cry.

Speaker 1 (01:25:36):
Let's say, are you you got a headache? It was
real bad. The breath was surrenders, but I just feel like, yeah,
get you some chlorophyll Corfield. She need an extraction. I

(01:26:01):
don't even want to get into it. It was so bad
it was, But yes, get you some her fantasy box.

Speaker 3 (01:26:07):
It will help with all of that. I love the
chlorophyl pills A one in my book.

Speaker 2 (01:26:11):
Get you know what we need to do.

Speaker 1 (01:26:13):
We need to have a Tailorport event and have Roller
Roriguez pull up and perform tailor Port Junkie. That was
my song. She a teleport junkie, and now we are
shout out to tail port Tailorport. Okay, let's get to
this topic. Girl, Could you be intimate with some Could

(01:26:34):
you be intimate with someone who's an amputee? When it
came out that Crew Jay was Daddy Deon Sanders, people
had a lot to say. Coach Prime had two toes
on his left foot, amputated, specifically the big toe in
the second toe. If you met someone fine, funny and
everything you wanted, but they were amputee, would that make

(01:26:54):
you pause before getting intimate? Whether it's a finger, a limb,
a leg, a toe, would that affect your decision in
dating them? A finger or a toe? That's light work.

Speaker 3 (01:27:05):
We could work around it. You could wear some gloves. Yeah,
you could wear some socks. Okay, I won't know a leg.

Speaker 1 (01:27:15):
Now we're chartering into dangerous siritory for me.

Speaker 3 (01:27:18):
Okay, that's fair, just for me, you know I personally,
and it's not nothing wrong with it, nothing wrong with it.

Speaker 1 (01:27:28):
You know. I just don't think that I could partake.

Speaker 2 (01:27:34):
That's fair, that's your truth.

Speaker 1 (01:27:35):
Yeah, I just don't think I could partake in that.
Maybe though, if you know he kept that half under
the cover. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. What do you think?
You know what I feel like when the lights go off?

Speaker 2 (01:27:52):
Honestly, I could.

Speaker 1 (01:27:53):
Date an amputee because I like, but I want you
to be advanced in your amputee journey. Like if it's freshening, no,
because listen, if you if something just happened, I'm not
worried about the physical. It's your mental. Your life just changed.
And if we're dating, I think that's a lot to
put on me. If we're dating, I'm not speaking. It's

(01:28:15):
like if I'm married and my husband, something happens you
my husband, we gonna figure it out. But if it's
somebody I'm dating and we're just like light dating and
something happens.

Speaker 2 (01:28:25):
I don't know. But if it's like somebody who walks
up to me and you got.

Speaker 1 (01:28:28):
That pag leg on, I don't give a fuck. You
can walk. They be putting them legs on, and sometimes
it be up to the hip and they can walk.
It may be a little limp. I walk with a limb, bitch,
I got a bad kneed. We finna be twinning in
this motherfuck. Remember that song, I walk with a deal.
I don't give a damn. A good man it's hard

(01:28:49):
to find if he ain't got a leg, I don't
give a damn. I'm sorry. What if you didn't find
out though? Until like that's that's what I'm saying about
abou about what if it was time to.

Speaker 3 (01:29:02):
Get into the bed and then he took the leg
off and put it on the side of the bed.

Speaker 1 (01:29:06):
Don't know. By that point we're deep into it, and
if he has a leg that means he's deep in
his amputy journey. You don't care about that leg. Long
I don't as long as that do. That did get hard,
That's all I said.

Speaker 4 (01:29:17):
Longer the third one, take that leg off and let's
get to work.

Speaker 1 (01:29:22):
Okay, that's crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:29:23):
I'm just saying.

Speaker 1 (01:29:23):
But like I said, you need to be deep in
your journey, not a fresh one, not a fresh one,
not a fresh because I think that's just a lot.
That's it's sad, you know what I'm saying. And I
don't think that those pressures. But like, if we're like
three years into our relationship and then it happened, we
gonna stay together.

Speaker 2 (01:29:42):
But I'm talking about if I meet somebody, could I.

Speaker 3 (01:29:44):
Be in oh yeah, Like if we weren't in a
relationship and then it happened while we're in a relationship,
I wouldn't leave, yeah, because of it.

Speaker 1 (01:29:51):
But I feel like meeting somebody initially, as long as
you're an advanced stamputee, you gonna get some pussy out
of me. I ain't. I'm gonna shine that leg up
for you if to dick good too, I ain't scatter,
no nub bitch, shine that leg of the arm. And
it's an arm. I really don't give a fuck.

Speaker 2 (01:30:12):
Really, no, I.

Speaker 1 (01:30:13):
Care more about the arm than the really how you feel?
So I do. One of my best friends, I mean,
it's a sad she had cancer and her toes and
she has to have them amputated. Like as a teenager.

Speaker 3 (01:30:24):
Yeah, I've seen that, but that doesn't stop her from
like living her life. So I agree with you more
so on like if it's a finger, if it's a toe,
if it's something that's like small, a leg.

Speaker 1 (01:30:34):
While I respect it and I honor it, I don't
know that's a big because once you take that off
before we get into bed, I don't know. Bro.

Speaker 2 (01:30:43):
I think it's because I'm lazy. We finish, get in
your wheelchairs.

Speaker 1 (01:30:46):
Can he prop up on that knee?

Speaker 2 (01:30:47):
Like yeah, they know how to work that thing.

Speaker 3 (01:30:50):
I'm just thinking, like, yeah, I think for me, it's
more about like me thinking about the things that we
can do versus the things that we can't do.

Speaker 2 (01:31:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:31:01):
I like the from the side of like about outside
of fucking if he ain't got no army, you go
to the grocery store? Yeah, or like what if I
want to go to Running Canyon?

Speaker 2 (01:31:15):
Pick and run.

Speaker 3 (01:31:16):
That's what Running Canyon is a mountain. That's what I'm saying.
They're not they can walk, maybe I'm serious.

Speaker 1 (01:31:24):
If they're advanced, yeah, that's legs and ship They legs
a little different, That's what I'm saying. And they be happy.
They like they can walk, like, no, I.

Speaker 3 (01:31:33):
Know they can walk, but I think that it's a
lot of things that's gonna be a little more difficult.

Speaker 1 (01:31:38):
Yeah, yeah, I do agree.

Speaker 3 (01:31:41):
I do think they're like, I think you have to
think about those things when you've decided to date.

Speaker 1 (01:31:46):
You know, I ain't I ain't axing nobody else out
though it's too hard to find a man these days.
You think a little leg gonna stop me, you're gonna
get down there wouldn't stop me. I'm not gonna lie.
A tod finger wouldn't stop and stopping.

Speaker 3 (01:32:00):
But if you got that ying yang twin up, I
just all right that I could.

Speaker 2 (01:32:05):
That's all right.

Speaker 7 (01:32:06):
I like that.

Speaker 1 (01:32:07):
Do it again. I like it.

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
You ain't stopping me. I need it.

Speaker 1 (01:32:15):
But that's this is actually a good that is because
but but I think it's okay for people to say,
you know what, I don't think I could do this,
and that's okay. You know what I'm saying. I think that,
you know, we do need a little like honesty, And
I think that's okay because I think they know that
as well. You know, it's a lot because you're not
living a normal life at this point, because you have
to think about stuff like accessibility for them. Man, you know,

(01:32:39):
it's it's a lot to commit to, you know what
I'm saying. So I get I definitely get both sides.
What about somebody in a wheelchair? Like is that is
that too much of a disability?

Speaker 3 (01:32:49):
Because like you said, you want someone more advanced, yeah,
and move around on their own, but they're in a
wheelchair with that hinder your.

Speaker 1 (01:32:57):
That's what said.

Speaker 2 (01:32:57):
What kind of wheelchair we're talking motorized?

Speaker 1 (01:33:00):
Yeah, that's worked with advanced. I'm gonna work with a
little motorized. I'm not mad at it. Okay, you know
what I'm saying. I could work with it too. Motorized. Yeah,
if I gotta push you, yeah, i'll upgrade him.

Speaker 2 (01:33:16):
No, I'm gonna give him that.

Speaker 1 (01:33:17):
He and me too. If I love, I'm gonna hook
that shit up. I'm not mad at it.

Speaker 2 (01:33:23):
Yeah, I'm not mad at it.

Speaker 1 (01:33:25):
I feel like I have to. Yeah, I think i'm
But honestly, if I'm being honest, I feel like, at
thirty six, I'm so far past the physical because in
my younger days, being a physical person and being like,
oh he gotta have that, he got it. It ain't
eat me nowhere. Yeah, So like if I meet a
man and he's an amputee, I'm not gonna be like

(01:33:45):
he does not have a look, I can't talk to
him like, no, he might be cool. And I think
now the way I date, I date and I'm friends
with somebody first, I'm very cautious and I'm like, we're
gonna be cool for a while. So honestly, whether you
got your leg or not, we're gonna have this period
of time or we're just friends anyway, So I gotta
go to like you whether you got two legs or
one anyway, So you might want to hide that leg

(01:34:08):
from me, cause I ain't gonna know the difference. I
walk with a limp too, Okay, I just I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:34:16):
I feel like, like you said, I'm more partial to
if it's something that ended up happening to my partner
while we're together, then cool.

Speaker 1 (01:34:25):
I'm not gonna lie to.

Speaker 3 (01:34:26):
I don't know if that's something that I would just
readily put myself into if I have a choice, because
it's a lot, like you said, having to do it
with it mentally and then also just being realistic, like
I get what you're what you're saying about the fact
that like, oh, they can still walk in all the day,
which I am aware of, But I think that he's
definitely going to change the quality of like both of
y'all's life together and a lot of things that y'all

(01:34:49):
could do.

Speaker 2 (01:34:50):
You know what, I guess I'm speaking on. What's that?

Speaker 1 (01:34:52):
Oh, I have to google her name.

Speaker 2 (01:34:54):
It's this girl.

Speaker 1 (01:34:55):
She is an Olympic runner and she's married to another
Olympic runner, but he does you know what I'm talking about?
Can you please look up that couple for me? But
he doesn't have a leg and he's a sprinter. You
would never know he didn't have no legs. So I
guess that's the kind of couples I'm looking at too.
You know who I'm talking about? Color Wright?

Speaker 2 (01:35:16):
Yes, Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (01:35:17):
And I want to know her name because she, like
I think she I want to say, she broke a record.

Speaker 2 (01:35:22):
I can't remember what she ran it.

Speaker 1 (01:35:24):
But anyway, she's married and her man is like an
amputee and he real fast. Bitch, Yeah, that motherfucker fast.
But so I look at it more so like that.
But there is other ways to look at it too,
and there and like you said, I think it's a
lot to take on, cause she's probably taken on a lot.
But they're married as well, so I see both ways.
I'm like, yeah, that's cool if you do, but it's

(01:35:46):
also okay if you don't.

Speaker 3 (01:35:47):
But it does make you think about the fact that,
like sometimes maybe people do really be missing out on
good people because of things like that. Yeah, what if
you missed out on your soul mate because of something
like that?

Speaker 1 (01:35:57):
Like, Oh I met this person. He was really super
so we super nice.

Speaker 3 (01:36:00):
He had all of these characteristics that I liked that
I wanted in a husband, but he didn't have a leg.
So I just completely I have to hear down that
she well, her husband now they have kids now, but
he's a pair of plegic Tera Davis wood Hall.

Speaker 1 (01:36:15):
Like she didn't let that Hunter wood Hall. Really it's good,
that's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (01:36:20):
What she said.

Speaker 3 (01:36:20):
I'm sorry, but she was just saying one of her
friends met a man who was like a pair of
alegic and she didn't let that stop.

Speaker 1 (01:36:25):
Yeah, this is a couple I'm talking about Tera Davis
wood Hall and Hunter wood Hall. And he fast as hell,
he is so fast. But they're like an Olympic couple.
But they live a normal life.

Speaker 3 (01:36:41):
The next episode, I really want to do a lyric
breakdown because when you really be thinking about some of
the stuff that people would stay in songs, it's like,
why would they say that? Because Tad just said a
pair of plegic and it made me remember when Lil Wayne.

Speaker 1 (01:36:54):
Said pair of polegic, a pair of let park and
it red and white thing, old school Atlanta. Why would
he say? Then why did he say? And then why
did he say tougher than Nigerian hair? Because hey, I'm
now we just talked to revival. Now we just talked
to our girl, a rooted revival. You got to use

(01:37:16):
your rooted revival, damn it. Okay, So now it's time
to get into love. Hey love about Hey love bow Bow.
You gotta seen that ship like you mean it? How you?

Speaker 2 (01:37:33):
Okay? So my bop of the week.

Speaker 1 (01:37:35):
And then Wendy used to say that saying like you mean,
I don't know that's what she's a song? I think
say it like you read something like that?

Speaker 2 (01:37:44):
Okay, So my bop of the week.

Speaker 1 (01:37:45):
A listener actually sent this to me and I meant
to screenshot his name, but I'm sorry, I forgot October London.
I have recently been put onto him, obviously I've been
under Actually no, I have not been recently introduced to him.
I was introduced to this song back to your Place
by October London. This is a vibe like ladies men whoever,

(01:38:05):
when you got company coming over to your house and
you're getting ready, you cooking for him, you're getting that
house clean.

Speaker 2 (01:38:10):

my vibe period, Back to your place. Yeah, yeah, you
need to listen to that when you're cooking that fish
for that man. Okay, I'm still on my Caribbean wave, Drea,

Speaker 2 (01:40:01):
I'm sorry, I have to talk about this body oil again.

Speaker 1 (01:40:04):
If you don't do nothing else, y'all go get this
body oil from her fantasy box. I'm not playing, it's
the business. Is it a dry oil? No, it's not,
because you know, so I use the dry oil. What's
the one that I use? The dry oil that I use?
I forgot I'm drinking what's the perfect the pink perfume
that you so?

Speaker 2 (01:40:26):
I use the Delina body oil.

Speaker 1 (01:40:27):
Now that's a dry oil. Like if you're trying to
get moisturized, no, okay, but it gives you what you need. Now,
this is gonna moisture you up, but it's not greasy,
but it gives you that shine. I like that shine
because that tom Ford oil you're gonna get that.

Speaker 3 (01:40:45):
You're gonna get that shine with it. And the Bakarry oil.

Speaker 1 (01:40:48):
Yeah, but the Delina is just for the smell and
it's to get that dry off. But it's not gonna
moisturize you. But this, mmm, that's that's the one right there.

Speaker 2 (01:41:02):
I don't know what you put in that ship her
fantasy box, but.

Speaker 1 (01:41:05):

I can't getting tool drunk and it's time to end

Speaker 2 (01:42:05):
It's so how I have one?

Speaker 1 (01:42:05):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (01:42:06):
Heydrea and Legs, please keep me anonymous. I'm a proud
Patreon member and just started watching y'all this year.

Speaker 1 (01:42:12):
I'm hooked so boom.

Speaker 3 (01:42:14):
I just ended up four almost five year relationship after
catching my boyfriend cheating again. The first time was two
years ago with his friend, which kind of friend, And
this time I found him sending nudes and calling another
girl boo. I cut it off immediately. He's apologized, admitting
he got comfortable and had no ambition and blamed his

(01:42:35):
ego and insecurities. I even started therapy the same week
we broke up. I'm twenty four, he's twenty seven. Am
I crazy for believing his excuses? And is it wild
that I still think maybe once we both love ourselves,
we could make it work.

Speaker 1 (01:42:50):
You are crazy, but it's okay. You're still young. He's
jealous of you. He secretly hates you, and he's envious.
If a man loses ambition and he blames you and
goes to start fucking on another, he's jealous of you,
and you need to get away from him immediately because
it's never gonna get better. I have no notes. Y'all
got to watch these signs because that's a characteristic. You

(01:43:12):
lose ambition and the first thing you do is go
get some pussy from another bitch. Something ain't writ in
that head your.

Speaker 2 (01:43:20):
Ego and your insecurities.

Speaker 1 (01:43:22):
If I'm triggering you now and I'm only twenty seven,
you haven't even reached your peak in life yet. So
imagine what you gonna do to his insecurities and his
ego when you reach your peak. Let that nigga go,
oh no, she's twenty four. He's so Yeah, you're twenty four.
You haven't even gotten close. Girl. Let that nigga go.
I agree.

Speaker 3 (01:43:42):
Sometimes it's like even in being young, like, yeah, you
can grow with people, but if the signs are already there,
Like I mean, he already cheated on you once. And
I know that I have said in the past on
the show, I cheating isn't necessarily a zeal breaker for me,
and I've said that in the past.

Speaker 1 (01:44:00):
But I definitely feel like, is it a pattern? Right?

Speaker 3 (01:44:05):
Like, sometimes things happen, people slip up and it's something
that happened and they wish they could take it back
and they'll never do it again. That happens sometimes, right,
But then you have people that are habitual cheaters and
that's what they do. It's a cheat, nass nigga, and
that nigga sound like a cheat. Nass nigga because you
said he cheated on you. Then after that you found

(01:44:26):
out he told another girl hey boom ooh not hey boo.
So it's a pattern.

Speaker 1 (01:44:30):
And if that bitch stay, if she respond back and
be like, hey, what's up, daddy, he gonna go fuck
that hole. So let that nigga go.

Speaker 2 (01:44:37):
I agree one thousand, one thous wow.

Speaker 1 (01:44:41):
So y'all know, we always have a bottled Up segment
where y'all just send us something of you getting things
off of your chest. This is not advice, like pour
your heart out, but you just wanna get some things
off your chest. So we're gonna play our bottled up
portion of the show sponsored by Taylor Port.

Speaker 2 (01:44:56):
Go ahead and play it.

Speaker 8 (01:44:57):
So I have two friends and they are a little
bit closer than me and them are, especially nowadays because
I do work a lot more.

Speaker 1 (01:45:08):
And I don't know.

Speaker 8 (01:45:09):
I just I'm trying to figure out how can I
tell if these people are if these two girls are
my friends for real? Or I don't know, because even
like sometimes I feel like I can I cannot be there,
or I'll tell them certain things and it's as if
like they're they're talking about had my back like they've
discussed this behind my back. So I'm just trying to

(01:45:30):
figure out, how can I tell if my friends are
really my friends at this point?

Speaker 2 (01:45:39):
You know, I don't know.

Speaker 8 (01:45:41):
My gut is telling me one thing. I don't know
if it's in my head or not. I don't know
if I'm just kind of tripping because I'm not around
as much.

Speaker 1 (01:45:48):
But let me know what y'all think. Am I tripping?

Speaker 8 (01:45:52):
Is it in my head?

Speaker 1 (01:45:53):
Are these girls my friends?

Speaker 8 (01:45:55):
I don't really know what to think of it, because
I don't have any friends that after all.

Speaker 1 (01:45:58):
I kind of feel like, if that's the case, y'all
not really real friends.

Speaker 3 (01:46:03):
Because I don't never feel like if me and two
people are friends with each other, that they're talking about
me behind my bag or like whatever I tell the
both of them when they not around me, they gossiping
about me and what I told them amongst each other.

Speaker 1 (01:46:20):
I don't never feel that way.

Speaker 3 (01:46:22):
I feel like, if you feel that way, that's a
and I'm not saying you wrong, but to me, that's
more of an intuition, good feeling type of thing. And
I think sometimes it's people we need to go with
our good feelings and our intuition about stuff, because.

Speaker 1 (01:46:35):
Them ain't show friends if.

Speaker 3 (01:46:36):
You feel like like, I'll use us for something you're
concerned about, Shall I say.

Speaker 1 (01:46:41):
Like me and you are both friends with Kiki and Tiffany,
Like if you go and hang out with Tiffany and
Kiki and I'm not fair, I don't be like, oh
my god, I don't feel I never feel on tope
of it, I'd be like next time I'm pulling up
or something like that. So I think your intuition is
telling you something because I've get how she feels though,
because growing up in high school was seven of us,

(01:47:03):
and you know, we had our friend groups on the inside,
and we knew who we fucked with and we knew
who we didn't fuck with. So your gut intuition is
not wrong and you probably should either have a talk
with him or separate yourself. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
I'm not saying it like because you're right, I feel
like we've all had those feelings before. Like I've had

(01:47:24):
those feelings before.

Speaker 3 (01:47:25):
But that's what let me know, you bitch just is
not really my friends for real, because I shouldn't be
feeling this way like I shouldn't be concerned about what
the subject matter is when I'm not around.

Speaker 1 (01:47:35):
Yeah, I agree what you think.

Speaker 3 (01:47:39):
So I don't know because I've had that feeling where
it's been three of us and then one friend feels
a certain way about me and the other friend having
a closer relationship. So I wouldn't say that it's always negative.
I think what we had to do and are just
us as the three of us had to have a
talk about why that person may have felt excluded a

(01:47:59):
little bit, and then we just worked on it, like
because it was no like we weren't intentionally, we just
are closer naturally we have each other longer, We just
had a tighter relationship, but as friends because we all
love each other, we travel together, we've known each other
for so long. We just had to talk about it,
and I'm like, Okay, we need to make sure you
feel excluded. Maybe these jokes, we can take it a
little a lot easier. Yeah, maybe when we joking with you,

(01:48:22):
you taking it a different way, right, and just having
an open conversation.

Speaker 2 (01:48:25):
And that's what I said.

Speaker 1 (01:48:26):
I think if you bring it up and y'all have
a healthy conversation, but if they get.

Speaker 2 (01:48:29):
A little defensive talk about you.

Speaker 1 (01:48:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:48:31):
Yeah, like if you bring it up and they get defensive.

Speaker 1 (01:48:34):
Yeah, the signs be there, they be there, But it
could also be with ta say go with yo good Yeah,
because I sometimes when we be around people, people be
like they're not talking about us, but it's like we
just being our own little world. It's not on purpose. Yeah,
and we also be talking about them. All right.

Speaker 2 (01:48:53):
